Senior Caregivers Ready to Serve the Elderly in Calabasas

Looking for a Caregiver this Summer for your elderly loved ones? You wouldn't be the only one. While summer is usually seen as a time to relax and give yourself a break, the case oftentimes is that time is still very hard to manage as families will have to juggle between work, school, and taking care of those at home, which can include both children on summer vacation and retired elderly seniors. 

What can make this even more difficult are those hours during which free time is available. When going out to the beach, park, etc., it’s hard to really enjoy a break when there is either an active child to keep an eye on or an elderly relative who needs attention.

Enjoy healthy eating? This month is American Heart Month. A-1 Home Care will be focusing on heart healthy tips for seniors. 

For adults over 50, the benefits of healthy eating include increased mental acuteness, resistance to illness and disease, higher energy levels, faster recuperation times, and better management of chronic health problems.

Live In Care in Calabasas

Of the 27 million people in the United States with Arthritis, many are taking vitamin D supplements to treat pain and control the spread of the disease. However, an article by the New York Times suggests that vitamin D is not effective in reducing arthritis related pain or restoring cartilage. This is unfortunate news for an incurable condition with few options for treatments.

The study observed 146 men and women with painful knee arthritis who were assigned to take Vitamin D supplements or placebos. Though knee pain lessened slightly for both groups, there were no differences in bone density or cartilage lost.
