How to Give Your Kids the Drugs Talk

00:00 /

In today’s Wellness Minute Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy explain how to give your kids the drug talk. The key to giving your kid any of the big “talks” – the “drug” talk, the “sex” talk and the “Grandpa’s not going to be joining us for Christmas ever again” talk is to not make it one big talk. Make it a series of little talks that happen throughout their lives. Whenever you see something on the news, or on TV or in your kids life that is an example of the dangers of drugs – that is your cue to have a little brief talk about the dangers of drugs. Use the example that is in front of you as the topic for your talk. And encourage your kid to discuss the event as a natural conversation rather than a big momentous “talk.” And get over yourself – if you think you are being a hypocrite regarding your own drug use.

Diabetes and the Heat

00:00 /

In today’s Wellness Minute Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy explain how the heat affects people suffering from diabetes. A lot of diabetics and pre-diabetics are sensitive to the heat. It seems that if you have type or type 2 diabetes that the mechanism that regulates your body temperature is out of whack. Diabetics have difficulty sweating enough when their body temperature rises. And when you don’t sweat enough when it is super hot you can overheat. So if you have diabetes stay cool – wear loose fitting clothes and make sure you stay hydrated.

July 14, 2010 by angishields

In today’s Wellness Minute Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy share some great vacation health tips. If you are going to be driving all day – it is a good idea to get some exercise in beforehand – because once you’re in that car you won’t be burning many calories. Prepare lots of healthy snacks to eat in the car in order to prevent trips through the drive through or be tempted by all the unhealthy food choices there are on the road. Healthy snacks like sandwiches, wraps and veggies and fruit you can eat with your hands without making a mess work great. If you’re traveling by plane be sure to bring some trail mix or energy bar that you can keep on you in case there is a flight delay. On a cruise try and avoid the overeating that goes on at the buffet. Listen right now to hear Dr Fitness’ tips.
