Doctors are learning that one of the best ways to reduce unhealthy #inflammation lies not in the medicine cabinet, but in the refrigerator. Following an anti-inflammatory diet could help. #HarvardHealth bit.ly/3B4zeim

We know that pioneering #AgeFriendlyMN communities were more resilient to the devastating impacts of #COVID19. @GovTimWalz please prioritize American Rescue Plan resources for an Age-Friendly Council to ensure #aging is a state priority. #OneMinnesota #equity @LtGovFlanagan

A year into this pandemic, we still need to be checking in with each other. None of this is normal, none of this is easy, and none of us are going to get through it without community and connection.
Pollen@PollenMidwest12 Mar 2020
Who can you be checking in with right now? It can be as little as a call to ask, "Are you all okay? What are you feeling, what are you thinking?" Lean in to the uncertainty. Make space for connection (even if remotely!).

Falls are the leading cause of injuries among older adults, sending more than two million people to the emergency department each year. Many fall hazards are right in our own homes, and a few inexpensive changes could lower your fall-risk. bit.ly/2YJGOv6
