Tip 1: Help your daughter build a strong skeleton. Encourage her to get 1,300 international units of calcium daily between the ages of 9 and 18. Ask your Good Neighbor Pharmacy pharmacist if a supplement might be right for her.
Tip 2: Try kickboxing, a hybrid of boxing, martial arts and aerobics. A 135-pound person will likely burn 350 to 450 calories in a typical 50-minute class.
Tip 3: Want to quit smoking? Cut down on the number of cigarettes you puff each day. This can help you quit altogether when you're ready. Your Good Neighbor Pharmacy pharmacist can also suggest smoking cessation products.
Tip 4: Manage workplace stress by changing your perspective. For instance, instead of letting one difficult client distress you, think about the other clients you successfully serve well.
Tip 5: Pregnant? Opt for fortified cereals. They contain folic acid, which helps reduce the risk for birth defects.
