How do you keep warm? 🧤🧣 Winter is coming and although the cooler temperatures are welcome for most, certain medical conditions worsen such as Asthma.
The cold or damp air can enter airways causing them to spasm leading to coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath and tightness in the chest.
Symptoms can be avoided by taking the correct medication and getting an Asthma Action Plan from your GP and of course keeping warm like this fluffy kitty. 🐱

Is it safe to drink sea water? 🌊
Definitely not! Sea water contains a high amount of salt which means that if consumed, our body will have to work even harder to get rid of it. The kidneys would have to produce more urine until eventually we would become dehydrated leading to fatal consequences.
However, if you are stuck in the middle of the sea and don’t have access to fresh water, you could boil some sea water, capture the steam and condense it back into water so you’re effectively getting rid of the salt.
If you’re out on your boat this weekend, be sure to pack plenty of fresh water 💦. Ps. It was a Police boat 👮♀️ Take care and stay healthy 😘

Carrying a food baby like our friend Shrek?
Did you know that almost 2 in 3 Australians are overweight or obese. Having a large waistline increases your risk of heart disease which is currently the leading cause of death in Australia. Men should aim for a waistline of under 37 inches and women under 31.5 inches.
Making changes to reduce your waist can be simple and easy. Start by picking up the pace when you’re shopping for groceries or switch your midday donut for a healthy apple and ditch the weekly takeaway for a monthly treat.
Let’s change the statistics and beat obesity together. 💪
Take care and stay healthy 😍
