🍉🌞5 Tips for Beating the Heat this Summer!🌞🍉
As temperatures rise, staying comfortable and healthy is the top priority. Here are some tips to help you stay cool and beat the heat this summer:

1. Stay Hydrated! 🥤
One of the best ways to conquer the heat is to remember to stay hydrated. Keep your water bottle handy and sip throughout the day. Try to avoid drinks with high sugar or caffeine and opt for foods with high water content such as watermelon and cucumber to replenish electrolytes naturally.

2. Limit exercise to the cooler parts of the day 🚲
Try to save your physical activity for the early morning or late evening when temperatures are cooler. Not only will this maximize your energy, but it will also reduce the risk of heat exhaustion.

3. Wear loose clothing 👗
Dress for comfort! Loose, lightweight clothing in breathable fabrics like linen or cotton will allow for better air circulation - helping you stay cool!

4. Opt for lighter foods 🥗
Refreshing and lighter foods that are easier to digest, such as salads and smoothies, can help keep you cool from the inside out. This will prevent you from feeling sluggish in the high heat!

5. Know the risks ❗
Understanding the dangers of heat-related illness is crucial. Be on the lookout for symptoms such as dizziness, nausea, and increased heart-rate. Don’t forget to always wear sunscreen to protect the skin. Stay informed and prioritize your well-being!

At Greater Good Health, we commend taking proactive steps to stay in charge of your health. If you are nearby one of our locations in Billings, Missoula, or Great Falls, stop in and visit our air-conditioned community rooms – open to the public and several scheduled activities and events! Learn more about our senior primary care services at https://www.greatergoodhealth.com. We hope you utilize these tips and make the most of this summer!

On this Fourth of July, we would like to celebrate the resilience and unity of our community in the pursuit of health and happiness for all. From all of us at Greater Good Health, wishing you a fun and safe holiday! ✨🎆Happy Independence Day!🎆✨

💻New blog post on the Greater Good Health website: https://greatergoodhealth.com/patients/fall-prevention/ ! 💻 As we approach the warmer months and seniors look forward to staying active outside, it's important to acknowledge the heightened risk of falls that may come with increased activity.

Falls among seniors are a significant concern, potentially leading to a multitude of physical injuries that can impact well-being at both the psychological and physical level. To mitigate these risks, it's important to implement preventive measures both inside and outside the home. Some simple adjustments such as ensuring adequate lighting, wearing appropriate footwear, and maintaining regular exercise to sustain strength and balance can enhance senior safety significantly. Each step taken toward creating a safer living environment makes a difference. 🌻

💻Check out this blog post on the Greater Good Health website: https://greatergoodhealth.com/patients/the-importance-of-geriatric-primary-care/! 💻

In honor of Older Americans Month, we wanted to use this time to highlight the importance of geriatric medicine within primary care.

As we age, many unexpected variables come into play including mysterious pains, mental health conditions, reactions, and diagnosis and management of chronic conditions. According to the CDC, over 78% of adults over 65 have had at least one chronic condition. It is always better to catch a condition or ailment sooner than later - this is why preventative care is so vital! Geriatric primary care physicians take a proactive and vigilant approach to identifying potential risks. By providing holistic and personalized care, geriatric care physicians can work alongside seniors toward their goals and help them reach a higher quality of life.🌱
