Do you remember sending valentines when you were a child? Can you recall the construction
paper-covered shoe box decorated with hearts and filled with all of your precious valentines? Or
perhaps the first serious Valentine's Day gift you received, or your first delivery of one dozen red
roses? Receiving a Valentine's Day gift is a magical experience. After all, this holiday is not about
obligatory gifts so when you receive a Valentine's Day gift, you know the giver cares about you.
Be Your Own Valentine
Valentine's Day, while traditionally for sweethearts, is really just a day to show the ones you love
how much you care. Friends and family routinely send Valentine's Day cards; parents even
exchange valentines mementos with their children.
This Valentine's Day, why not take the time to appreciate someone who rarely gets your
attention; someone who deserves a thoughtful gift and a few kind words? Someone like – you!
Whether you are single or attached, Valentine's Day is the perfect day to send yourself a gift of
thanks and appreciation. This year, why not be your own valentine?
Start thinking of Valentine's Day as a time to celebrate you. Prepare to treat yourself in the same
way you prepare to send a gift to your partner or friend. Be as thoughtful for yourself as you
would be for the important people in your life. Take the time to
consider what you would love to receive and write a thoughtful note to
yourself, listing what you love about yourself, and why you are special.
However you decide to care for yourself this Valentine's Day, February
14th, remember that it's okay to take time to care for you. It's the
perfect time of year to pay extra special attention to your own needs and
to celebrate in a way that is meaningful and special to you.
Health
Corner
It's hard to believe that what was once considered to be an indulgence has been proven to be good for your
heart, your lungs and your brain. There's even more good news: The flavonoids liberally found in dark
chocolate appear to produce the greatest health benefits, but researchers now say milk chocolate is also a
rich source. It contains about 75 milligrams per 100 grams, or more than found in red wine. Of course,
all flavonoid levels vary by brand of chocolate.
A study of 21,000 participants was conducted during the EPIC-Norfolk research project. It showed that
after 11 years, those who ate the most chocolate every day (3.5 ounces or about one chocolate bar) had an
11 percent lower risk for heart disease. These participants were also 25 percent less likely to die of any
cardiovascular causes than those eating the least (.5 ounces per day on average). It was also associated
with a nine percent lower risk of hospital admission or death as a result of coronary heart disease, after
taking account of dietary factors.
But these results are not a prescription for eating candy. This was an observational study so no definitive
conclusions can be drawn. In spite of this disadvantage, doctors at Tufts University say the results are
supported by other studies.
If you love chocolate, remember that it contains calories. So choose chocolate instead of indulgences like
donuts and other treats. It's still best to choose dark chocolate that's higher in flavonoids, say researchers
at Tufts University. Note that the Food and Drug Administration doesn't require producers to list
flavonoid content on their products. To maximize flavonoids, Jeffrey Blumberg, PhD, of Tufts,
recommends dark, bittersweet or baking chocolate. Milk chocolate is processed to make it smoother and
less bitter, which also decreases natural flavonoid content.

American Heart Month is sponsored annually by the American Heart Association to
raise awareness of heart disease across the nation during the month of February.
Did you know that heart disease is the number one killer of women and it
accounts for more deaths in women than all cancers combined?
Family history and age are factors that affect the likelihood of the disease, but the
good news is that there are ways to reduce your heart disease risk. Manageable risk
factors that contribute to heart disease include high blood pressure, high cholester-
ol, diabetes and smoking. You can reduce your risk by managing your health and
making healthy lifestyle choices like eating right, exercising and by not smoking.
You may be surprised to learn that lack of exercise is one of the highest risk factors
for developing heart disease. Exercise programs like Live 2 B Healthy® are known
to reduce these risks; it improves your weight, blood pressure, cholesterol and
blood sugar.
Exercise helps your heart by:
● Strengthening the heart muscle and cardio-
vascular system
● Making the heart more efficient
● Improving the flow of blood to the heart
● Improving the heart’s ability to handle stress
● Improving heart failure symptoms
The American Heart Association recommends at least two and a half hours of
moderate intensity aerobic exercise a week. In addition to aerobic activities, your
exercise regimen should include stretching and strengthening activities. Exercises
should be personalized and tailored to your abilities as well as progression of your
frequency, duration and intensity.
Get involved in raising awareness of the heart disease epidemic by educating
yourself on the disease. Learn how to exercise safely and correctly and, if possible,
seek help from a certified exercise instructor who can develop a customized
wellness program to meet your health needs and fitness goals.
