Eight States Selected to Receive Grants From the National Association of Chronic Disease Directors to Implement Physical Activity and Nutrition Programing to Combat Obesity

The National Association of Chronic Disease Directors, an Atlanta-based, national association of state health agency chronic disease prevention professionals, is pleased to announce that eight state health departments have been selected to receive grants to support the development of physical activity and nutrition programs in partnership with selected communities.

Atlanta (PRWEB) December 4, 2008

The National Association of Chronic Disease Directors is pleased to announce that eight state health departments have been selected to receive grants to support the development of physical activity and nutrition programs in partnership with selected communities. States selected include Kentucky, Delaware, West Virginia, Oklahoma, Alabama, North Dakota, Mississippi, and South Carolina. Each of these eight states had some of the highest obesity prevalence rates in the nation in 2007 according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, from 27.4% in Delaware to 32% in Mississippi. Seven states will receive $20,000 and will provide $15,000 directly to community groups; Delaware will receive $14,000, $9,000 going directly to communities.

The National Association of Chronic Disease Directors, an Atlanta-based, national association of state health agency chronic disease prevention professionals, is pleased to award these funds as part of a collaborative research grant from Klein Buendel, Inc., a Golden, Colorado health education media research firm and the National Institute of Diabetes, Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) to assist communities in implementing programs targeting improvements in physical activity and healthy nutrition.

Eligible applicants for these grants were 15 states with the highest overweight and obesity rates in the U. S. The state grants were awarded based on the strength of the states' history and current ability to build and sustain partnerships with state and community-level organizations with capacity to build community-based health initiatives in obesity prevention.

Upon state funding, a competitive process will be implemented to select the local communities. Successful community applicants will demonstrate that partnerships are in place to effectively plan and implement physical activity and/or nutrition projects to reduce community risks for obesity. Community applicants will be expected to convene and coordinate a coalition of organizations that are vested in improving physical activity opportunities and improving nutritional status of their residents. These groups and their members will become part of a research project that will test various methods of project management. The planning and implementation of community projects will take place during the thirteen month period from July 1, 2009 to July 31, 2010.

Gone for the Holidays: Safeguarding Your Home

Gone for the Holidays: Safeguarding Your Home

InsureMe gives tips for keeping burglars at bay during holiday travel.

DENVER (PRWEB) December 19, 2005

With the Bureau of Transportation Statistics reporting a 23% travel increase over the holidays as compared to the rest of the year, it’s no surprise that experts anticipate home theft to increase accordingly.

To help ward off would-be burglars, InsureMe, a leading consumer-agent link for finding insurance online, is highlighting some important tips for keeping homes safe and theft-free over the holidays.

Make use of timers and motion lights. Connecting interior and exterior lights to a timer will give the impression that someone is home. Installing special motion-sensitive lights will take away a thief’s shield of darkness and will likely prompt the robber to move on.

Stop mail delivery. Nothing says “We’re not home” like an overflowing mailbox. Put a hold on mail and newspapers, or have a trusted friend or neighbor collect all mail until you return.

Cover garage windows. Putting a towel or curtain over garage windows will prevent outsiders from noticing an empty garage—a sure sign of an absent homeowner.

Secure all ladders and decorative trellises in the garage. Removing all climbing instruments will prevent burglars from entering your home on the second floor.

Lock and secure all windows and doors. Deadbolts are still the most effective type of lock and tend to be pick-resistant. Reinforce sliding glass doors with a broom stick or metal rod and make sure all windows are tightly closed and locked.

Installing other theft-deterrents such as electronic burglar alarms are also a great way to protect your home—and will also save you money on your homeowner’s insurance.

“Many electronic devices ring local authorities, elevating the level of protection in the home,” says Mike Sajdak, InsureMe Chief Financial Officer.

“Insurers realize this and give homeowners anywhere from a 5% to 15% discount. It really is a double benefit to consumers.”

With an estimated 30 million Americans traveling away from home this holiday season, home security is likely to be one list everyone checks twice.

About InsureMe

InsureMe, an Englewood, Colorado-based company, links agents nationwide with consumers shopping for insurance. Specializing in auto, home, life, long-term care and health insurance quotes, the InsureMe network provides thousands of agents with insurance leads every year. For more information, visit www.

Free eBooks, Guides and Current News Now Available on Health Site Guide

Free eBooks, Guides and Current News Now Available on Health Site Guide

Health Site Guide http://www. healthsiteguide. com, the free healthcare search engine and portal, offers visitors a world of easy-to-access healthcare information.

Great Neck, NY (PRWEB) July 18, 2006

When people search a health concern for themselves or a loved one, they want information that’s easy-to-access, reliable and thorough. Health Site Guide is a free portal and “vertical search engine,” that features direct links to information contained on over two dozen healthcare websites including videos, drug information and much more. Recently the portal added current news by health topic, and free downloads of health-related eBooks, guides, and manuals. These include a pdf version of The Interpretation of Dreams by Sigmund Freud, and important US government guides on Medicare. Free membership is required to access these additional services.

“Health Site Guide is, and will remain, free. In fact, no membership is required to use the majority of the portal, and areas that do require membership, such as Today’s Health News (by topic) and Free eBooks require no personal information,” states Bob Lipp, co-creator of Health Site Guide. “Simply make up a nickname, provide a password, and give us your email address, so we can have you verify membership. That’s it. We developed the search engine to provide information, not to capture it.”

Health Site Guide is designed to be very user-friendly, and recognizes that many people who go online for healthcare information, do so with a degree of anxiety. In the Free eBooks area, once a member logs on and clicks on the "Downloads" link at the top of the website, he or she can choose from several health-related categories. For example, to access The Interpretation of Dreams, members can click on the “Psychology” link and download the book in the form of a complete 327-page PDF document. Other resources include Consumer Health eBooks, which are broken down by categories ranging from a clinicians handbook to pocket guides for staying healthy over age 50. The Government Programs category lists publications for conditions such as arthritis, cancer, diabetes, and info on government programs like Medicare. New guides on different conditions and programs are always being added.

What started as a way to access relevant healthcare information without all the searching has become, in its second month, an ideal resource for the growing number of people who search the web for health concerns. Direct, pre-searched links have been created for fast, easy access to hundreds of healthcare concerns. In addition, users can click on graphics on the Health Site Guide home page to access medical encyclopedias, drug information, today’s news by health topic, medical brochure downloads, and other features, including a Health Spotlight section which focuses on concerns shared by many.

Health Site Guide encourages businesses, universities and health-related organizations to suggest new features for the portal and provide a link to the site, (Link To Us information appears on the home page of Health Site Guide), on their own site, so their viewers can take full advantage of the enormous amount of information available. Links are provided as pop-ups, so viewers can access Health Site Guide without leaving their current site.

About Health Site Guide

Higher Gas Prices Affect Dieting: DINING IN Provides Healthy Fuel To Combat Economic Dieting and Health Pitfalls

Higher Gas Prices Affect Dieting: DINING IN Provides Healthy Fuel To Combat Economic Dieting and Health Pitfalls

With escalating gas prices and food prices people are scrambling for options to stretch a buck. Dining out is attractive but in the end can cost more than dining in. With no time to cook and groceries getting expensive, DINING IN, San Francisco's fastest growing premier personal chef service has become the Bay area's answer to saving time, money, calories and improving overall health during stressful times.

San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) June 30, 2008

- The U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Western Information Office reports gas prices are 15.5 percent higher from last year, as prices for food away from home increased 3.7 percent. With the added 4% health insurance charge added to tax and tip for dining out, most busy Bay area professionals are turning to fast food with no time to cook, while looking for a way to save money. DINING IN - San Francisco Bay Area's fastest growing premier personal chef service has become the solution for those who are challenged juggling money, time, lifestyle, their diet and their grocery bills in a changed economy. Rising gas prices make life challenging for Bay area residents who drive more. They are sacrificing healthy eating to compensate for fuel costs. Already delivering to all of San Francisco, East Bay, Oakland, the Peninsula, Menlo Park, Palo Alto and Marin, DINING IN has tripled business in the last three years. DINING IN's healthy, fresh, calorie-conscious, organic food delivery service has recently expanded delivery to San Jose, Sunnyvale, Santa Clara, Campbell and Los Gatos homes and offices. This extended service outreach enables people to make better eating choices.

"As prices rise for food, gas and luxury items, it is important that people don't skimp on taking care of their health. At the end of the day - it is our health that allows us to work so hard, keep up with the daily demands, enjoy life and feel great. Given that the costs of food is steadily rising about 15% up from last year, DINING IN makes sure that you eat a healthy meal and no money goes to waste! The best thing about our service is that each entree is portioned per person, so there is no throwing away rotting food, cooking too much and never eating it or spending an excessive amount on take-out,' states DINING IN Founder/Executive Chef Traci Higgins.

According to a 2005-2006 U. S. Census Bureau study, San Francisco spends $7,942 annually on food - which is higher than Los Angeles, Phoenix, Seattle and San Diego for cities in the West, with the average American purchasing fast food 16 days per month. Over the latest 12-month period, prices for medical care services advanced 5.2 percent an indication that fast food is NOT the right economical or healthier answer. DINING IN's mission is to keep the Bay area healthy with portion control, fresh ingredients and special attention to nutritious menus. By creating healthier food choices which also enhance time management and lifestyle, DINING IN is all about helping their clients with quality living.

"When I first started the service I was trying to save money by ordering less food. I realized that I spent more money going to the grocery store to buy food than I would have otherwise, and it was rarely good for me. I decided the purchasing a few extra meals per week is actually saving me money," states Courtney Hahn, DINING IN client and director of a collection agency.

Passionate about healthy eating and a healthy lifestyle, Chef Higgins will be participating in the AVON Breast Cancer Walk in San Francisco July 12-13th. Her healthful mission continues with education and demonstration. She will be doing free cooking demonstrations Saturday July 26, 2008 at Williams-Sonoma Union Square (340 Post Street, SF - 415-362-9450). Her upbeat cooking demonstration, HEALTHY MEALS IN MINUTES will feature Chef Higgins demonstrating fresh and healthful ways of cooking 12 Noon-1 p. m. and an encore presentation 1:00-2:00 p. m.

As a working wife and mother herself, Chef Higgins knows how important it is eat right and balance time and nutrition for optimum productivity. "Once I get my daughter out the door I make a list of priorities for the day. I go down the list one by one and crossing them out feels great. I try to go to the gym from 4-5 pm, pick up my daughter and then we all heat up our DINING IN meals at 6:30. We play for a few hours then off to bed early. I feel horrible if I do not exercise and do not eat a balanced diet. The first thing to go is my energy! I save about 8 hours a week by having my meals made. I do not have to go to the grocery store more than once a week, (saves gas); never have to cook (saves energy) or do dishes (saves water). Eating well makes me able to keep up the demands in my life! (saves time)," explains Higgins.

Chef Higgins is a multi-hyphenate entrepreneurial business woman, Executive Chef, Speaker, Culinary Instructor, Health Educator & Advocate, who has worked in the test kitchens of Cooking Light, Weight Watchers, America's Best Recipes and on the television show "Follow That Food" with Gordon Elliott for the Food Network. Higgins has traveled the country performing cooking demonstrations and insightful lectures on health and wellness to doctors, dietitians, health professionals and nurses and has been active in many diabetes educational forums and conferences. She is credited in three cookbooks.

Saving time, money and calories is not only a positive lifestyle change, but one that is also changing in positive ways at DINING IN. More exciting new menu options will continue to be launched this summer. DINING IN is also offering kid-friendly menus for busy families but will be expanding its menus to include The Daily Diet to launch in July - an "all-inclusive" diet program for those serious about weight loss. The program includes breakfast, lunch, dinner and two snacks, all within a particular caloric range and fat content.
