LaGrange County Council on Aging To Get New Home!

The LaGrange County Council on Aging

hosted it’s April luncheon that was

sponsored by Avalon Village. There were 60

people in attendance. Guests were lucky

enough to hear Randy Packer’s lovely funny

jokes to start off the luncheon. Myron Sharp

grilled up some hot dogs and pork burgers

that were donated by Russ Howe. The rest

of the menu included potato salad, cheesy

corn, potato chips and desserts made by Deb

Carter, Erin Young and board member

Marilyn Faulkner.

A very special announcement was made

from the Executive Director, Cheri Perkins. The LaGrange County Council on

Aging has been in existence since 1975, in all of those past years, they have

never owned their own building. Officially on 04-17-14 the LaGrange County

Council on Aging signed the paperwork to purchase the location in LaGrange that

is currently occupied by the Moose. The Moose plans on moving to a different

location in 30 days. The Council on Aging will begin preparing for the move. The

official “hopeful” date that business will resume, only in the new building will be

July 1st. Until then we plan on having the normal operations in the current

location.

The new address will be 410 E Central Avenue, LaGrange. We will be looking for

help with moving, cleaning and maybe some painting etc. Next year we plan on

submitting a grant to help fund the “big” renovation project. This grant requires

matching funds, therefore it will be essential for us to have fundraisers to raise

more money to go towards this match. The more money you raise the more

points you get. We will eventually have a garage located on the property to

store all of the vehicles. This will be a much needed necessity in the winter

months. If you have any questions, please call and talk to Cheri at 260-463-4161.

COA Executive Director, Cheri

Perkins, and volunteer Pat Frick

help prepare food for the luncheon.

TRIAD Alert

Contributed by Dan Votaw, Vice-President

There is a new service in the county that is especially designed for us seniors. It

is called “Life Bridge Senior Program”. This Parkview LaGrange Hospital pro-

gram deals with the unique challenges affecting senior citizens. Your LaGrange

County TRIAD Committee would like to bring the following to your attention.

We older folks don’t deal with challenges as well as we used to. Changes in our

physical abilities, the loss of a loved one or isolation can lead to depression and

anxiety. Left untreated, this can lead to many other problems. Life Bridge is an

outpatient behavioral healthcare program that is tailored to the individual.

Patients generally spend 6 to 12 weeks in the program depending on their indi-

vidual needs.

The Life Bridge Program can help seniors who are experiencing any of the fol-

lowing areas:

Depressed mood

Unresolved grief

Anxiety or nervousness

Worry

Isolation or loneliness

Difficulty coping with health/physical changes

Difficulty concentrating

Sleep or appetite changes

Feelings of hopelessness or helplessness

Anger

Low self-esteem

Personality changes

The treatment is, of course, confidential and is done in coordination with the

patient’s primary care physician. The program uses a team approach consisting

of multi-disciplinary medical and behavioral health personnel.

Referral to the program can be done by the individual themselves or family

members. Referrals can also be made by physicians, hospitals, assisted living

facilities or nursing homes. The program is also accepted by Medicare.

For more information or if you just want to talk with them it see if the program

might be for you, give them a call at (260) 463-9270. They will be more than

happy to talk with you. You never know, it might be just the thing you’ve been

looking for.

SAVE THE DATE!

ing will be sponsoring Senior Day at

The Top 10 Super – Spices that Protect Your Body (article by Catherine Ebeling and Mike Geary, The Fat Burning Kitch-en & The Top 101 Foods that FIGHT Aging) The COA Reporter condensed this article for purposes of the newsletter.

These 10 powerful spices help to control blood sugar, reduce inflammation, boost your metabolism, aid fat loss, and reduce your risk of cancer and heart disease.

Every time you flavor your meals with herbs or spices you are supercharging your food without adding a single calorie. You can transform something ordinary and bland into something truly extraordinary tasting and good for your body, just by generously adding herb s and spices to your meals. They add tons of extra flavors and when combined with the nutrition in other foods, they actually exponentially boost the natural antioxidants, phytonutrients and anti-inflammatory power of the food.

The 10 most potent “superfood” herbs and spices you can eat:

1. Basil- very effective anti-inflammatory herb with extraordinary healing benefits that work for arthritis, allergies and inflammatory bowel conditions. Basil helps kill harmful bacteria that cause food poisoning including; Listeria, Staph, and E. coli. It’s an excellent source of vitamin K, calcium and magnesium, which is good for your bones. Also great source of iron, manganese, vitamin C and potassium.

2. Cinnamon- This ancient spice has one of the highest antioxidant levels of any spice. Cinnamon is highly effective at helping to stabilize blood sugar levels, making it very effective for those with diabetes (type 1 and type 2). In one study of people with type 2 diabetes, just two teaspoons a day reduced blood sugar as much as 20-30%, as well as lowering LDL cholesterol and triglyceride levels. Cinnamon has powerful anti-inflammatory properties and helps relieve pain and stiffness in muscles and joints, including arthritis. Cinnamon has a positive effect on brain function and smelling cinnamon or chewing cinnamon gum can possibly improve memory or attention. Add cinnamon to your smoothies, yogurt, coffee or tea.

3. Cayenne- This hot spice not only heats up your dishes, it heats up your body and raises your metabolism, helping you burn fat faster. An interesting research study showed that when a person consumed an appetizer with red pepper flakes, they ate 15% less food. For those of you that avoid cayenne because you think it bothers your stomach, cay-enne pepper is actually healing to stomach tissues, it stimulates digestive enzymes and helps prevent stomach ulcers. Cayenne reduces LDL blood cholesterol, triglyceride levels and decreases the formation of harmful blood clots, all of which prevent heart attacks and strokes. Cayenne is a very effective anti-inflammatory and pain remedy for everything from headaches to arthritis and sore muscles, as well as clearing nasal congestion and boosting immunity. Try cayenne in your morning eggs, soups, stews or meatloaf for a little metabolism boosting spice!

4. Cloves- Cloves have a unique sweet and spicy flavor, but also contain powerful natural medicine. Cloves have strong antiseptic and germicidal ingredients that help fight infections, relieve digestive problems and arthritis pain. One of cloves’ best known uses is the ability to relive tooth and gum pain. Cloves have been measured as having the highest antioxidant level of all spices and herbs. The oil in cloves kills bacteria and is very effective when applied to scrapes, cuts, fungal infections, itchy rashes, bites, burns, or bruises. Cloves can help digestive problems like gas, indigestion, nausea and vomiting and eliminate harmful parasites, bacteria and fungus in the digestive system. Try some in your hot tea.

5. Cumin – Cumin is another spice that is especially high in antioxidants, but cumin is known for being especially good for digestion. It stimulates the gallbladder and pancreas to secrete enzymes and bile that break down food into usable nutrients your body can use. Cumin also helps detoxify the body and is highly effective for respiratory and bronchitis. Cumin, like cinnamon, helps keep blood sugar levels stable, which means cumin is great for diabetics or pre-diabetics, it means less chance of weight gain and excess body fat. Cumin has been proven to work as well as some commonly used diabetic drugs at regulating insulin and glycogen. Cumin is also a very good source of iron, vitamin C and Vitamin A, which benefit the immune system. Add it to your chili.

May is National Melanoma Awareness Month

Article Written By: Cheri Perkins, COA Executive Director

Please take a minute to review this important information; I hope that it will have an impact on you.

Definition of melanoma: A form of cancer that begins in melanocytes (cells that make the pigment melanin). It may begin in a mole (skin melanoma), but can also begin in other pigmented tissues, such as in the eye or in the intestines. Estimated new cases and deaths from melanoma in the United States in 2014: New cases: 76,100, Deaths: 9,710

Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer in the United States. Each year, more than 68,000 American’s are diagnosed with melanoma, and another 48,000 are diagnosed with an early form of the disease that involves only the top layer of skin. Also more than 2 million people are treated for basil cell or squamous cell skin cancer each year. Basal cell skin cancer is several times more common that squamous cell skin cancer. The best way at fighting skin cancer is prevention.

Prevention: People with skin cancer are at risk of developing another skin can-cer. Limit your time in the sun and stay away from sunlamps and tanning booths. Keep in mind that getting a tan may increase your risk of developing another skin cancer.

The best way to prevent skin cancer is to protect you from the sun:

Avoid outdoor activities during the middle of the day. The sun’s rays are the strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. When you must be outdoors, seek shade when you can.

Protect yourself from the sun’s rays reflected by sand, water, snow, ice, and pavement. The sun’s rays can go through light clothing, wind-shields, windows and clouds.

Wear long sleeves and long pants. Tightly woven fabrics are best. Wear a hat with a wide brim all around that shades your face, neck, and

ears. Keep in mind that baseball caps and some sun visors protect only parts of your skin.

Wear sunglasses that absorb UV radiation to protect the skin around your eyes.

Use sunscreen lotions with a sun protection factor (SPF) of at least 15. (Some doctors will suggest using a lotion with a SPF of at least 30.) Ap-ply the product’s recommended amount to uncovered skin 30 minutes before going outside and apply again every two hours or after swimming or sweating. (Continued To Page 11…)

6. Turmeric-Turmeric’s yellow – orange pigment, curcumin, is the main ac-tive ingredient in this super spice. Curcumin’s anti-inflammatory benefits are actually comparable to drugs like hydrocortisone and over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medicines like Advil and Motrin. But, unlike the drugs, curcumin is not toxic at all. Curcumin is more effective slowing down the development of Alzheimer’s disease than many medications, because it de-creases inflammation and oxidation in the brain. It also speeds up the re-covery time from strokes. It’s highly effective against diseases like irritable bowel disease, ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s and arthritis. Turmeric also im-proves liver function, lowers homocysteine and prevents heart disease. Most importantly, turmeric is one of the most potent anti-cancer spices that helps protect you. Turmeric and its derivatives are currently being studied in alternative cancer treatments.

7. Rosemary-Rosemary contains active ingredients that are potent antioxi-dants as well and anti-inflammatory agents. Rosemary has long been known to improve concentration, boost memory and lift depression. Rose-mary also strengthens the immune system, improves circulation, stimulates digestion, and fights cancer, as well. Rosemary is highly effective for respir-atory problems including asthma, chest congestion and respiratory infec-tions. While rosemary adds a delicious savory flavor to meat dishes, it also helps digestion by stimulating the gallbladder to release bile as well. Rose-mary will protect your body against harmful carcinogenic toxins and pre-vents colon cancer, stomach, breast and lung cancer.

8. Ginger-Ginger is Very powerful for your health! Ginger contains over 25 different antioxidants, which makes it extremely effective at fighting free radicals in many different body systems. Ginger is best known for its ability to reduce nausea and vomiting, as well as motion sickness. In fact, ginger may even be more effective than Dramamine, one of the most common drugs used for motion sickness. Ginger does not have any harmful side effects like many drugs. Studies show that just 1 gram of ginger before sur-gery is more effective than the standard anti-nausea medication given for post-surgical nausea and vomiting. Ginger is a soothing remedy for sore throats from colds and flu because of its antiviral properties. Ginger also helps coughs and is an effective expectorant. Try a tea made with hot water simmered with a few slices of ginger and a small amount of honey and lem-on for a soothing tonic when you are sick. Ginger has been known to reduce the pain and swelling of arthritis, and muscle aches. It fights cancer, reduc-es cholesterol and prevents blood clots that can lead to strokes or heart dis-ease.

9. Oregano- This herb contains oil that is very potent anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and anti-viral agent. Oregano oil has been used to treat a wide range of conditions from bacterial and viral infections, to parasites and stubborn fungal infections. The oil of oregano is most often used for medicinal pur-poses; the herb itself can provide many of the same benefits when con-sumed regularly. It also relieves inflammation, internal or external and can offer relief from allergies, aches and pain without side effects.

Jaime. To schedule transportation, call the COA at 260-463-4161.

10. Thyme- Thyme’s active ingredient is known for treating bronchitis, sore throats, chest congestion, laryngitis and asthma. Thyme is so effective it is often an ingredient in cough drops and mouthwashes to treat inflammation and infections. Thyme is also effective as a soothing stomach aid to relieve gastritis, indigestion and colic. Thyme helps prevent cancer, improve memory, treat Alz-heimer’s, calm the nerves and alleviate depression, nightmares, and insomnia.

Note: Always check with your physician to be sure certain herbs and spices don’t interfere with medications you may be taking- and check with your doctor before you quit any current medications. The LaGrange County Council on Aging offers a Diabetic and Healthy Living class once a month. Try and attend the next class if you are more interested in finding out more about healthy living.

My Mom’s brother Mike Anspaugh, he was originally from Noble County, but moved to Florida for college and never left. He played baseball in college and later became a teacher where he coached. He was outside in the wonderful Florida sunshine all the time. He had just retired from teaching when he went for a normal routine checkup with his doctor. He asked about a spot on his back that was itching. The doctor recommended that he see a dermatologist. They did a biopsy and found the melanoma. The specialist at that point gave him 5 years. They removed his lymph nodes, because that’s where the cancer spreads. He had chemo, radiation, and participated in clinical studies at Moffit Cancer Research Center. He felt the research might be able to help someone in the future. The tumors grew and spread to his bones, it was extremely painful. He was 58 when he passed, four years after being diagnosed. He left behind his wife and three boys. At his memorial they handed out sunscreen! Cancer is a horrible thing as everyone knows!
