Spa protection Tips

Diabetes Test Strips :
Water balance and sanitizer has to be maintained:

Make it a point to ensure that the water is salutary and free of any form of harmful microorganisms before you of course enter a spa. This can be done by usually shocking the water and the maintenance of the total alkalinity and pH of water for controlling bacteria in the water.

Sanitizer levels, Ta and pH can be monitored by using the acceptable test strips. There is also a bacteria test available now for testing for bacteria in the spa water.

Diabetes Test Strips :Spa protection Tips

Storage of Chemicals & Spa Supplies:

It is prominent that additives, cleaning compounds and chemicals used in the spa are stored in a cool, dry and ventilated spot. In expanding to this, it should be settled away from direct sunlight, and way out of reach of children. Remember to all the time read and succeed the directions found on chemical labels.

All spa chemicals should not be mixed before adding to the spa water. Instead, you have to dissolve the dry chemicals one at a time, in clean water in a plastic bucket. It is only now that you can pour this bucket of water and chemicals into the hot tub. This is done to prevent inherent damage to the acrylic shell or Pvc liner of the spa which arises from direct touch to the undissolved granules of the chemicals.

Consumption of Alcohol and Drugs in the spa:

It is perilous taking alcohol and drugs when in the spa as the hot water tends to amplify the effects of the alcohol and drugs. This may lead to perilous consequences. So if you take drugs, consult your doctor for directions on the right use of prescription drugs in the spa. Instead of taking alcohol, many people prefer drinking a chilled soft drink, mineral water or juice when relaxing in the spa.

The right Water Temperature:

The National Spa and Pool design states that 104 degrees F is the maximum hot water temperature for your spa. Sitting for long periods in water with higher temperatures tends to lead to rising of the body heat to perilous levels. This is why the contemporary spas are usually set at the factory, to not exceed this limit.

The recommended soaking time and temperature is not more than 15 minutes at 100 to 102 degrees F. And with children and infants being more sensitive to heat, the ideal water temperature for them is not more than 95 degrees F, for no longer than 10 minutes.

People suffering form high or low blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease or any other serious health conditions should consult, and collect the guidance of a doctor before doing so. To find out the ideal temperature of the spa, place a floating thermometer in the spa if it does not have a digital temperature readout indicator.

Precautions for Children and Infants:

If children and infants are to enter into a spa, they have to be introduced moderately so that they have time to adjust to the convert of temperature without any fear or discomfort. Children should never be left unattended in hot tubs, spas or pools. A few minutes in even a shallow pool or spa is adequate for a drowning hazard to take place. Remember, prevention is all the time best than cure.

Pregnancy and spas:

It is not at all advisable for pregnant women to enter a hot tub or spa without a consultation with their physician.

Dangers of hair entanglement:

It is inherent for a drowning risk to occur with a bather's hair getting entangled in a drain cover, when hair and water draws down the drain. This is why children, or whatever for that matter, should not play with their heads settled underwater in a spa.

To prevent this, the Us buyer stock security Commission has helped in the improvement of the requirement for dome shaped drain outlets in a spa, with two outlets to be used for each pump. With this, the powerful suction that arises with a blocked drain is reduced. So those with old spas have to have these new drain covers installed, and perhaps get a spa with two drains for prevention of entrapment in the drain. This applies to swimming pools as well.

To ensure that the spa remains in good, and safe working condition, and that drain covers are not cracked or missing, have quarterly pro checks on the spa. You have to check to ensure that the drain is covered throughout the year. Have a Gfci protected power disconnect gadget installed for the spa, and learn where and how to use it in emergencies.

About the Power Cutoff Switch:

It is prominent to install a hand-operated disconnect gadget for the spa at a minimum of 5 ft and a maximum of 15 ft from the spa, for your safety. Also make it a point to check local codes.

Electrical Devices in the spa:

For security reasons, corded phones, Tvs, hair dryers, radios and other electrical devices would not be handled when in spas or pools or when in touch with water with wet hands or legs.
Make sure that all electrical outlets are settled at a safe length from the spa or hot tub, following local building codes. Electrical devices should be kept away from the water, and never on the edge of the spa. This is because if an electrical appliance falls into the water, or is touched by a wet person, inherent electrocution results.

Importance of a Spa Cover:

The spa has to be covered with a locked security cover when the spa is not used. Children should all the time be kept away from spas, unless under adult supervision. Remember that unsupervised spas are moving to moving small children; so keep the spa covered tightly with cover straps that prevent the slipping of the child into the spa. Replace the spa cover when necessary. You can install a pair of extra tie down straps for added security nearby the spa.

Importance of security Rails & Steps:

Spa steps and handrails are required for help when getting in and out of hot tubs with wet and glossy feet. With a towel bar, you can ensure that dry towels are available for feet and hands. For added safety, you could have a non-skid surface nearby the parameter of the spa. To avoid accidents with broken glass, snacks and drinks can be served in plastic packaging when in the spa. There should be adequate lighting at ground level, at nighttime.

Benefits of a Tub Together:

Adults soaking together is all the time a wiser and more moving choice in a spa. This is because with one or more partners, you are sure man is there if you have a qoute in the spa. Of course, children should all the time be accompanied when in the spa.

Living With Diabetes - Knowledge is Power!

Diabetes Test Strips :
More than any other health condition, living with diabetes requires you to take payment of your day-to-day health care yourself. Every hour of every day you will have to manage your blood sugars with activity, food, and medication without whatever to tell you what to do. The reality of diabetes is that naturally following doctor's orders is never sufficient to achieve an active lifestyle free from complications of this condition.

The good news is, however, that every diabetic can ultimately bring blood sugars under control. Living with diabetes, and living well with this condition, just requires three basic areas of knowledge.

1. Every diabetic has to keep track of blood sugars:

Diabetes Test Strips :Living With Diabetes - Knowledge is Power!

If you don't know your blood sugar levels, you won't know how well your diet and medication are working and you can't forestall dangerously high or dangerously low blood sugars.

And if there's any singular aspect of healthy lifestyle that diabetics resist, it's doing finger sticks to take blood samples to portion blood sugars. That's because most diabetes educators don't easily have the condition, don't take their own blood sugars, and don't know how to draw that tiny drop of blood painlessly.

The secrets to pain-free sugar testing are:

use a spring-activated lancing device. Never try to poke yourself with a bare needle
test on the sides of your fingers and thumbs, never the fleshy part in the middle
use test strips that require the smallest potential drop of blood

It's also potential to use test strips designed to test blood from forearm punctures. The forearm has few nerve endings and drawing blood there is almost all the time painless. With the right setting of the spring-activated lancing device, fresh lancets, and testing on the sides of the fingers, however, there is no presume blood glucose testing should hurt.

2. Every diabetic needs to know what it means to have blood sugars 'under control':

The qoute with the conception of diabetic operate is that most doctors don't have a good grasp on it!

In various situations, diabetics might be told that getting sugars under 250mg/dL (14mmol/L) is good enough, or they might be told that any blood sugar under 60mg/dL (3.3mmol/L) could be deadly, or they might be told that the whole 140mg/dL (7.8mmol/L) has "mystical significance." The fact is, managing the numbers isn't all there is to managing diabetes. Blood sugar levels are just a normal guide to diabetes, but there are levels are absolutely too high or absolutely too low.

As a normal rule, if your blood sugars go over 170mg/dL (9.4 mmol/L), even for a miniature while, your muscle and liver cells develop insulin resistance. This protects them from a flood of glucose that burns with the production of heavy amounts of free radicals. Most of the science confirms that having your sugars go over 170mg/dL (9.4mmol/L) after you eat, gradually makes type 2 diabetes worse. You need to keep your after-meal (post-prandial) sugars in control, not just your fasting sugars. You probably won't feel bad if your sugars are 170mg/dL (9.4mmol/L), but any sugar level this high at any time will gradually make the underlying insulin resistance worse.

Of course, retention your post-prandial sugars to 90mg/dL (5mmol/L) or so is optimal, but most diabetics need a lot of custom to do this! Just be sure you all the time need to operate the upper limit of your blood sugars. Any reading over 400mg/dL (22mmol/L), ever, requires immediate medical attention, and persistent blood sugars over 200mg/dL (11mmol/L) also require drastic changes in care.

It's also true that diabetics need to avoid low blood sugars. It is easily very, very rare for diabetics to go into comas and die. It's relatively coarse for diabetics to suffer diminished reasoning capacity and get into accidents, or make ruinous life decisions, when sugars get much below 60mg/dL (3.3mmol/L). Again, you won't know for sure you have a low sugar reading unless you test. Don't treat a qoute you don't have.

3. Every diabetic needs to know when their blood sugar readings are suspect:

Test strips make diabetes much easier... But they aren't perfect. The glucose attention in the capillaries, where you easily draw your blood sample, is consistently 8 to 20% lower than the glucose level inside your body. And there are many situations in which blood sugar levels are spuriously high or low. There are so many of these situations that it helps to have a reference guide.

How Do You Know When You're in Ketosis on Medifast? I'll Tell You

Diabetes Test Strips :
I often have population email me wanting to know how they can tell if they've reached ketosis or not. Because one of the goals of medifast is to consume a low sufficient whole of carbs and calories and a high sufficient whole of protein to get your body burning fat rather than carbs. Most population want to get to this state as soon as potential because this is when you begin to see the results. So how can you tell if you've reached these levels? Well, you can look at your bodily symptoms, you can test yourself, or you can do both. I will discuss this more in the following article.

The bodily Symptoms You Might See With Ketosis Once You've Been On Medifast Longer Than 3 - 4 Days: First of all, if you succeed along pretty well and you're particular with your lean and green meals, you should be able to get into ketosis within the first week. Many population see this happen sometime nearby days 3 - 5. But, sometimes, it takes a little longer if you are working out a lot.

The first thing that you might observation is that you're having an easier time on the diet. The cravings might come to be less and you might find that you're just not as hungry. You might also find that you have a bit more energy. I've also heard population say that they noticed a change in their breath. They've said that their breath had an almost fruity, sweet smell and / or taste.

Diabetes Test Strips :How Do You Know When You're in Ketosis on Medifast? I'll Tell You

Using Strips To Test If You Are In Ketosis Or Not: If you doubt these symptoms or just want to be sure that you've ultimately reached this state, you can use little strips that test for ketones in your urine. These are often sold under names like ketostix or ketone strips. Basically, you urinate onto the end of the stick and then wait for the whole of time indicated in the directions. (This is ordinarily everywhere from 15 -30 seconds. It does not take long to get results.) ordinarily you are seeing for the strips to turn color. The strips come with directions that will show you what color you are seeing for. But with many, you are wanting the strip to turn a purple to dark pink color to indicate that you are in ketosis.You can get the strips at most pharmacies and grocery stores. They are often in the diabetic section. You don't need a prescribe for them, but they are sometimes kept behind the counter, depending on the store.

What happens if you don't see the change in color? Well, there are a few possibilities. The first would be that you're not yet showing ketones in your urine. You can try to check again in a few days. Sometimes, if you work out heavily, your muscles will need the ketones as fuel and therefore it won't be in your urine. You may also have been drinking so much water that your urine is too diluted to change the color.

I understand that ketosis is assuredly where you want to be on medifast and I know that we all want validation that we are there. But the strips assuredly are a guide. If you are seeing some of the symptoms and the weight is coming off as it should, there assuredly is not presuppose to give so much point to the test results or to let them stress you out. What is assuredly prominent is getting the results on the scale, not in the strips, although they can help to offer you some reassurance if you need it.

Freestyle Glucose Meter

Diabetes Test Strips :
In order to sum things up, today I will be talking about diabetes testing supplies. More specifically, freestyle test strips and glucose monitors and their features. I have been through so many obstacles as a diabetic with so many distinct topics. So, today I would like to plainly address a few of them. Please know that this record is not intended to be taken as medical advice. This record pertains only to my experiences and such. Anyways, lets get started!

I have had several distinct blood glucose monitoring systems over my diabetic work and this one has by far been my favorite. I do not work for the freestyle blood glucose monitoring ideas company in any way, I have just been authentically satisfied with their product. I have had one touch and contour supplies in the past and was happy with them as well. This one has given my some very spoton results. I have not had any troubles with readings so far. The diagnostics test with the dinky bottle of "fake blood" as I call it turned out to be accurate. I am referring to the bottle that comes with the meter that is supposed to be used as a calibrations test. I put the solution onto the test strip and then got a reading. On the test strip bottle, there is a range that the reading that I got should be in, if not, then that is supposed to recommend that there is a defect with the monitoring ideas or the glucose test strips.

I am not totally sure if all of this is correct, but I think that it is. Anyways, the reading that I got with the solution was within the specified range. As for the freestyle meter, all has been spoton and great. The test strips that are supposed to be used with it have worked great as well. They require only a small estimate of blood in order to get a reading. I am so glad that the diabetes testing provide associates have started improving this part. A long time ago, I used to have to put more blood in the strip to get a reading and many times would not get adequate and an error message would come up. This meant that I would have to do it all over again in order to get my blood glucose reading. So far, I have not gotten a particular error message, and hopefully it will stay that way! I do not like having to throw away those costly dinky things! If you would like to learn more about the freestyle glucose meter then you should check out their website. There is a lot of tantalizing data about it there.

Your Body May Be Calling For Help!

Diabetes Test Strips :
Is your body in an acidic state? How would you know? What happens if you are? How long do you have left?

You can test your body's acid/alkaline equilibrium simply by using a pH strip that can be found at your local stores. Just about any drugstore will have the rolls of test strips available. simply make sure you haven't eaten for practically 30 minutes prior to testing the pH balance. Apply your saliva to the test strips and simply part the state of acidosis/alkalinity in your system. Try not to lick or stick the tape on your tongue directly. This a simple test and it didn't cost you 0.00 for a doctor visit.

Now, commonly the test should show that you have a fair equilibrium already. What you need to have is a healthy balance, according to most experts, is an alkaline level in the middle of 7.35 and 7.45. Anyone lower than this should be a matter to keep in mind. Try to bring the levels up straight through alkaline diet and drinking more alkaline/ionized water throughout the day.

Diabetes Test Strips :Your Body May Be Calling For Help!

I bet you are "a quart low". Adjust your water intake according to the following: For every pound of weight you are bearing, divide that in half and the resultant estimate should be the estimate of ounces of water you drink in a day. Therefore a 150 pound person should have 75 ounces of good drinking water going straight through his or her body every day. (This is less than two 44 ounce Thirstbusters at your local convenience store, and quite a bit cheaper!) Also, begin to focus on eating more alkaline producing foods. We'll cover these in another article, later on.

Remember, the higher the alkaline pH equilibrium in your body, to a point, the better it is for you.

If you are more acidic than you should be, you might be recognizing safe bet pains on practically a daily basis: headaches, joint pain, digestive problems, inability to breathe due to clogged air passages, general lethargy (drowsy, dull or listless), being tired more well than what you commonly are, plus a host of other problems. If these things are on a more lasting level, Please, make a visit to your doctor's office as soon as you can! A nutritionist might also be a wise choice. These are all ways that your body uses, trying to get your attention.

You'll need to begin training yourself to hear what your body is telling you! Sometimes it's very subtle, if one is not used to hearing it, and due to all the hustle and bustle in our lives, our body's voice might be drowned out. A "for instance" it might be thirsty. By the time you recognize that you are thirsty, it's too late, your body is already in a dehydrated state. Don't go there! Or it might mistakenly tell you that your are tired when you well need hydration.

The notion of "how long do you have" is here, simply to make you think. You probably have many years left. But, with the growth of toxins in our environment and the ratios of all diseases going up, as well as the probability of life spans dropping in the near future. Cancer is on the rise. Also, a reminder that you think not only of yourself in these matters, but please, keep your eyes and ears open for what's going on with the kids or in other peoples' lives. Listen and see what it is that they are doing. You can come to someone's aid, if you are informed and aware of what's going on. When you know how your body works you can take fee and change your lifestyle.

If tomorrow creeps up on you and you hear those dreaded words from your doctor, "It's cancer," again the notion comes to mind as to "how long do I have left." There is a lot you can do.

Acid Or Alkaline? Your Ph Can determine Your condition

Diabetes Test Strips :
When a outpatient came to me recently with persisting fatigue, frequent colds and headaches, I gave him a complete bodily exam to rule out any inherent illnesses. Then, to his surprise, I located a strip of litmus paper under his tongue. According to the test, his body was quite acidic, with a pH reading of 5.1. Like most people, this outpatient was totally unaware that the pH of his body might be affecting his health.

Think back-way back-to high school chemistry class. Do you remember something called the pH scale? The pH, or inherent of hydrogen, scale measures the acidity or the alkalinity of a substance. On the scale, whatever measuring from 1 up to 7 is an acid and whatever measuring above 7 up to 14 is alkaline. A determination of 7 means the substance is neutral, neither acid nor alkaline.

What in the World Does This Scale Have to Do With Your Health?

It could have everything to do with it. You see, all the functions of your body depend on a very fine equilibrium of chemicals. When chemical changes disturb the balance, an excess of whether acid or alkaline is created in the body's fluids, and it cannot achieve at its best. Although experts tend to disagree slightly on the ideal level for your body's pH, most seem to think a reading in the middle of 6.8 and 7.4 as normal.

Most imbalances are due to an excess of acid. If your body harbors an acidic environment, you may suffer from a wide collection of symptoms from constipation, fatigue and insomnia to water retention, arthritis and migraine headaches. Even low blood pressure, difficulty swallowing, a burning sensation in the mouth or bumps on the tongue can signal a low or acidic, pH. An acidic environment can also lead to more serious diseases such as cancer or heart disease. Medical evidence also shows that an alkaline diet helps forestall osteoporosis, kidney stones and the wasting of muscle tissue that often occurs with aging.

What Causes Such an Imbalance?

Several conditions might lead to an imbalance, such as diabetes mellitus or kidney failure. But most of the time an acidic environment in the body is caused by the foods and drinks you consume. A few foods are neutral and will not work on your pH, but most foods, after digestion, will contribute whether to an acid or an alkaline environment. (It has nothing to do with how acidic the food or drink seems while you are moving it.)

Good News: You Can correct Any pH Imbalance straight through Your Diet

First, find out your body's pH with a easy test. You can have your doctor achieve the test, or you can do it yourself at home by using litmus paper. Briefly touch the tip of the paper into a drop of urine or saliva. The red paper will turn blue in the proximity of alkaline, and the blue paper will turn red in the proximity of acid. achieve the test whether before eating or one hour after eating. You'll want to confirm the results with your doctor and consult with him or her before proceeding.

If your body is acidic, you need to add more alkaline foods and decrease your intake of acidic foods, until your pH returns to normal. To utter the ideal pH level, you should eat about 80% alkaline-forming foods and 20% acid-forming on a daily basis.

From designate for Nutritional Healing, by Phyllis A. Balch

Remember that all fresh fruits and vegetables, especially raw, help equilibrium your pH levels. Cooked vegetables tend to generate acid, as do processed foods. It's wise to check your pH on a quarterly basis, so you can begin to make adjustments as soon as possible. If you've got symptoms now that you can't figure out, think your pH levels. Take the easy test, check with your doctor and eat accordingly. You may be surprised at the results.
