baby products that promise to be tear-free are the same. The team of
scientists at JOHNSON'S, the #1 baby care brand, are leaders in
developing ways to evaluate products for eye safety and mildness.
They conduct a complete ingredient review and assessment using
laboratory and clinical methods before a product is eligible for the
signature NO MORE TEARS label.
Myth: Products that say "natural" on the label are safest for your
baby.
Fact: The use of the word "natural" on labels can be misleading.
Standards created by groups like the Natural Products Association
apply to a wide range of personal care products. In fact, some
"natural" baby products contain allergens and some natural products
eliminate preservatives, which are needed to prevent mold growth
and contamination and ensure the product remains safe throughout
its shelf life.
Tips for Shopping the Baby Aisle:
Do your research and buy from companies that you trust to
provide safe and appropriate products for your baby. Learn more
specifics about product ingredients here:
http://cosmeticsinfo.org/.
Understand what ingredients on the label mean and don't shy
away from complicated words just because you don't understand
them.
Remember, some trendy and natural brands may not follow
AWHONN guidelines for safety and mildness.
Beware of brands that make false or unapproved claims and that
are not evaluated for baby skin specifically.

How seniors are staying connected
through their golden years
(Family Features) For seniors, keeping in touch with friends,
family and caregivers is important to maintain an active social life
and remain independent. The number of seniorsand the need to find
creative ways to be mindful of their careis on the rise. With nearly
seven million Americans providing support as long-distance
caregivers, according to the National Institute on Aging, staying in
touch is especially important.
Nurture relationships
Email, cell phones and texting are some of the ways technology
is helping people stay connected today. These tools can be especially
useful for seniors living away from friends and family or for those
who aren't able to travel as much as they used to. One affordable
option is a complete phone system, such as VTech CareLine, which
has no monthly fee. Offering a wearable pendant, one-button or
voice-activated dialing, big buttons and volume booster, CareLine
has features designed with seniors in mind. For more information
about keeping seniors safely connected via a phone system, visit
www.vtechphones.com/careline.
Going places
Seniors today are staying active, spending time with friends and
family outside of their home, rekindling old passions and exploring
new activities that keep them on the move. Even for seniors who
aren't able to be as active, changes in scenery, like a neighborhood
walk or visit to the park, are great ways to get fresh air, uplift spirits
and live a healthier life.
Since transportation can sometimes be a challenge, especially for
seniors who rely on caregivers who work full-time, there are
numerous organizations that provide transportation resources for
seniors to assist in getting them safely to doctor's appointments,
organized activities at local community centers, shopping excursions
and more.
Your local Area Agency on Aging is a good resource to begin
researching options in your area. Find your local agency at
www.n4a.org.

calories.
3.) Eat regularly: When you eat these calories is also important. Large,
infrequent meals result in big-time hunger, which can cause you to lose
control of your appetite. Eating regularly and when you are comfortably
hungry keeps you in control of your appetite, allowing you to make wiser
decisions. Here is an example of a day's menu:
Breakfast: 100 percent whole grain cereal topped with nonfat milk
and berries
Mid-Morning Snack: A bowl of watermelon with a 6-ounce tub of
low-fat yogurt
Lunch: A turkey sandwich on 100 percent whole grain bread, baby
carrots and an apple
Mid-Afternoon Snack: 1 ounce of nuts with a glass of watermelon
juice
Dinner: Grilled salmon, baked sweet potato and green peas
Evening Snack: 2 cups air-popped popcorn and 1 cup of fat-free hot
chocolate
4.) Commit to health: Keep in mind that your ultimate goal is not just a
certain figure or a number on the bathroom scaleit is a lifelong
commitment to be the best and healthiest you. This plan requires a lifetime
commitment, not to lose weight and keep it off, but to modify habits so
they support health and maintain the best weight for you for life.

coat and skin may be showing the benefits of the essential fatty
acids, vitamins and minerals. A shiny, healthy coat; smooth and
elastic skin; and hair that is glossy and rich in color, are all signs
your dog is getting the support he needs in his food.
Bright eyes (day 21+): When a dog gets the vitamins he
needs to help support eye health, his eyes look bright and are, for
the most part, clear of discharge, with clean lashes and eyelids.
Dental health (day 28+): After 28 days, your dog should
show signs of good dental health. Healthy teeth look mostly
white or off-white; healthy gums that range in color from black
to pink with a clean, smooth surface; and fresher, better-smelling
breath.
Balanced and complete
The foundation of a complete and balanced diet is providing
the right proportions of nutrients from seven required groups
including water, protein, fat, carbohydrate, minerals, vitamins
and energy. You can help support your dog's overall health by
providing fresh, clean water and choosing a pet food that has an
optimal balance of nutrients for their age. One brand of pet food
formulas, Purina ONE SMARTBLEND, was carefully developed
by nutritionists and food scientists to provide 100 percent
complete and balanced nutrition for each life stage. These dry
dog food formulas offer benefits like meat, poultry or fish as the
first ingredient along with other high quality protein sources to
help support strong muscles including a healthy heart. They also
provide levels of vitamins E and A which help promote bright
eyes, a window to your dog's health. These formulas also provide
essential omega-6 fatty acids including linoleic acid, along with
other vitamins and minerals to help give your dog a shiny coat
and healthy skin. Wholesome sources of carbohydrate and fat
help provide the healthy energy to fuel your dog's activities with
you.
Promoting good nutrition everywhere
To demonstrate the visible difference great nutrition can make
in the lives of pets, Purina ONE looked to a dog-friendly
community to kick-off the Purina ONE 28 Day Challenge. To see
what happened when dog owners from Asheville, North Carolina
switched to the brand's formula for 28 days and hear personal

gutters and filters clean to prevent structural damage or fire. You can also
protect your home and valuables from damage by using adhesive to secure
precious items from getting knocked over, and protect floors from traffic
damage by securing rugs and felt pads to furniture.
Take a helping hand. Most phones have levels and flashlights that can
help with minor jobs, and your phone's calendar can be set with recurring
reminders so that you'll never miss a maintenance date. In addition, find
creative ways to make tasks easier. It can be tough to keep items in place
while nailing or screwing into walls or ceilings, or installing features such
as under-cabinet lighting. Glue Dots are a handy solution that won't damage
the surface, don't expand and won't make a mess.
Get organized. Daily home maintenance tasks like cleaning are easier
when they are done along the way rather than letting them pile up, creating
a bigger job. Store everyday needs in each room, or on each floor. For
maximum efficiency, keep cleaning supplies in both the bath and the kitchen,
and a broom and vacuum on each floor.
Making sure you have the right tools on hand and taking preventive steps
to get ahead of potential problems will make minor home repair jobs quick
and easy so you can get back to enjoying the comforts of your home.
