Hi, this is Beverly and Dr. Ronnie Weinstein of Ageless Yoga Oak Island with our weekly wellness article.  The article talks about how water may be the better choice for kids and teens over sports drinks for re-hydration.

Do your kids and teens like sports drinks—those brilliantly-colored beverages that promise re-hydration, calorie replenishment, and electrolyte replacement? If they do, be aware: The Washington Post reports that while these drinks may offer some benefits for elite athletes, who train vigorously and sweat profusely, the younger set doesn’t need them. If they do lose electrolytes from sweating, less common in the types of athletics done by kids and teens, it’s typically a loss of sodium, which is already plentiful in the American diet. For this reason, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that sports drinks for kids and adolescents be avoided, or at a minimum restricted, and that water should be the drink of choice. Sports drinks may even be bad for children due to the sugar and chemical content that rivals amounts found in soda.

Hi, this is Beverly and Dr. Ronnie Weinstein of Ageless Yoga Oak Island with our weekly wellness article.  The article talks about how maple water may be an excellent source of hydration.

Maple water—the raw, unprocessed sap from maple trees—may be maple farmers’ best-kept, thirst-quenching secret. Traditionally, maple sap, which is 98% water, is boiled down to make everyone’s favorite pancake topping, maple syrup. But the rising popularity of other plant waters, like coconut water, has given maple water a new purpose.

Hi, this is Beverly and Dr. Ronnie Weinstein of Ageless Yoga Oak Island with our weekly wellness article.  The article talks about how forty of sunscreens do not conform to the American Academy of Dermatology’s (AAD) guidelines.

As of last year, there were 6,500 products categorized as sunscreens on Amazon.com. Sorting through all of these sunscreens can be tricky, as those with the highest consumer ratings don’t necessarily offer the sun protection you need, according to a new study in JAMA Dermatology. Researchers behind the study analyzed the top one percent of sunscreens on Amazon.com (65 products total) based on the average consumer rating (greater than or equal to four stars) and the highest number of consumer reviews. Here’s what they discovered about these products:
