𝗙𝗮𝗰𝘁 𝗼𝗿 𝗙𝗶𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Healthy eating means giving up every food you enjoy.

Fiction.

Healthy eating is about the overall pattern—not one meal or one favorite food. Variety, balance, and portions that fit your needs can help make healthy choices more realistic and enjoyable.

A practical next step: Add one colorful fruit or vegetable to a meal this week instead of trying to change everything at once.

👉𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗯𝗮𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝗱𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘂𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗹𝘆 𝗲𝗻𝗷𝗼𝘆?

Important: Nutrition needs vary. Speak with a healthcare provider or registered dietitian about dietary changes for your health conditions or medications.

FRAUD PREVENTION FRIDAY • QR-CODE SAFETY

Before you scan that QR code, take a closer look.

A QR code can lead to a useful website—but scammers can also use one to send people to a fake site or install harmful software.

Pause before scanning codes in unexpected messages, packages, emails, or altered public signs. After scanning, check the web address carefully before entering a password, payment information, or personal details.

Your next step: When possible, open the organization’s official app or type its known website address yourself.

Your smartphone may already have tools that make it easier to use.

Look in your device settings for options such as:

PHARMACY FRIDAY: PRESCRIPTIONS AND TRAVEL

Going on a trip? Do not let a prescription problem interrupt the fun!

Check your refill dates, count how many days you will be away, and confirm your pharmacy’s hours before you pack.

Keep medications secure and in their original labeled containers when possible. Contact your pharmacist early if you may need a refill, delivery, or transfer before leaving.

A quick check now can help make travel day much smoother.

A little organization can make healthcare paperwork feel much easier.

Which task would help you most right now?

A. Update your medication list

B. Create an appointment calendar

C. Organize insurance papers

D. Review emergency contacts

Choose one small task and give it 10 minutes today. A simple folder—paper or digital—can be a good place to begin.

True or False: Everyone is automatically enrolled in Medicare at 65.

False.

Some people are enrolled automatically, while others need to sign up. Your timing can also be different if you or your spouse still has coverage from current employment.

A practical next step: About three months before your 65th birthday month, review your situation through Medicare and Social Security. Write down your current coverage, retirement plans, and questions before making decisions.

Finish This Sentence: Before I Start Something New, I Always Check ________

Starting something new, whether it is a prescription, vitamin, or over-the-counter product, usually feels easier when you have a simple routine for double-checking the basics. For some people, that means looking at directions first. For others, it means checking the label, reviewing the timing, or making sure it fits with the rest of their routine. Finish this sentence: Before I start something new, I always check ________.

💡 A Strong Retirement Starts with a Good Plan

Planning for retirement isn't just about deciding when to retire—it's also about understanding the benefits you've earned and preparing for your financial future.

One of the best tools available is your my Social Security account. It gives you secure access to:
✔️ Your estimated retirement benefits
✔️ Your earnings history
✔️ Disability and survivor benefit estimates
✔️ Retirement planning tools that let you compare different retirement ages and estimated monthly benefits

It's also important to remember that Social Security is designed to be one part of your retirement income. Many people rely on a combination of Social Security, personal savings, pensions, retirement accounts, and other financial resources to help meet their retirement goals.

Taking time to review your earnings record and understand your future benefits can help you make more informed decisions and avoid surprises down the road.

The earlier you begin planning, the more prepared you'll be for the retirement you've worked so hard to achieve.
