DEPRESSION

A man jumped to his death from a hotel after murdering his wife and two children yesterday. He had suffered from depression for at least half a year before the tragedy.

The early symptoms of depression could be subtle e.g. feeling sad, loss of interest in everything, poor appetite and early wakening from sleep. If you are worried about yourself or your friends who may suffer from depression, seek professional advice early.

Depression is treatable.

TIPS ON TAKING SUPPLEMENTS

1. Most people do not need supplements unless they are on a highly restrictive diet or with certain kinds of diseases.

2. Note ‘freshness’ of the supplements. Some supplements e.g. fish oil, will lose its efficacy if taken beyond the expiry date.

3. Supplements are not medicines. Avoid those supplements with squishy claims.

4. It is always advisable to consult your doctor before taking any supplements. Inappropriate use of supplements may be harmful.

IF YOU HAVE TO STAY OURDOORS TODAY…

Take measures to prevent heat stroke:

1. Carry and drink enough water to prevent dehydration
2. Avoid beverages containing caffeine, such as coffee and tea, as well as alcohol, as they speed up water loss in urine
3. Take breaks at intervals if manual work is needed
4. Wear loose and light-colored clothing to reduce heat absorption and facilitate sweat evaporation and heat dissipation

If you develop symptoms like dizziness, headache, nausea, shortness of breath or confusion, rest and seek help immediately, and seek medical advice as soon as possible.

ITCHY RASH IN HOT WEATHER

A possibility is the ‘heat rash’. The rash is itchy and looks like tiny red spots or blisters that often come in clusters. It occurs when sweat cannot get out from the pores of the sweat gland ducts.

Treatment involves moving to a cooler environment and you may try the anti-itchiness med like the calamine lotion as well.

If there is no prompt improvement with the above measures or you’re in doubt, consult your doctor.

A LETHAL TRIAD

In our free medical consult sessions in OWWA, it is very common to find FDHs, who are in their 30’s or 40’s, with elevated blood sugar, elevated blood pressure and overweight occurring together.

Poorly controlled blood sugar, blood pressure and body weight are risk factors of cardiovascular diseases. Having all 3 of them at the same time put you at high risk of heart diseases, stroke, kidney failure and many other related diseases.

Do take the first step: go to a doctor to have a checkup and assess your health risk. Prevention is always better than cure.
