Cold, flu, and other respiratory illnesses tend to peak during the holiday season, especially with increased travel, gatherings, and time spent indoors. If you experience a fever lasting more than two to three days, worsening cough or congestion, shortness of breath, or fatigue that doesn’t improve, it’s important to check in with your primary care provider. Seeking care early can help prevent complications, speed recovery, and keep you healthier throughout the season and into the New Year.

Holiday travel and schedule changes can disrupt medication routines. Set reminders, refill prescriptions early, and keep medications accessible; missing or delaying doses, even for a few days, can impact blood pressure, blood sugar, and heart health. Consistency matters, especially during busy holiday weeks.

As we age, calcium becomes essential for maintaining strong bones, supporting muscle function, and reducing the risk of fractures and osteoporosis. Getting enough calcium through a balanced diet can help preserve bone density, support heart health, and keep you active and independent. Pairing calcium-rich foods with vitamin D also helps your body absorb calcium more effectively. Tip: If you’re unsure whether you’re getting enough calcium, or if supplements are right for you, talk with your health care provider.
