jardiance asked: when it comes to managing your type 2 diabetes, what matters to you? you got a1c, heart, diet, and exercise. slide 'em up or slide 'em down. so let's see. for most of you, it's lower a1c. but only a few of you are thinking about your heart. fact is, even though it helps to manage a1c, type 2 diabetes still increases your risk of a fatal heart attack or stroke. jardiance is the only type 2 diabetes pill with a lifesaving cardiovascular benefit for adults who have type 2 diabetes and heart disease, significantly reducing the risk of dying from a cardiovascular event and lowering a1c, along with diet and exercise. this really changes things. jardiance can cause serious side effects including dehydration. this may cause you to feel dizzy, faint, or lightheaded, or weak upon standing. ketoacidosis is a serious side effect that may be fatal. symptoms include nausea, vomiting, stomach pain,

tiredness, and trouble breathing. stop taking jardiance and call your doctor right away if you have symptoms of ketoacidosis or an allergic reaction. symptoms of an allergic reaction include rash, swelling, and difficulty breathing or swallowing. do not take jardiance if you are on dialysis or have severe kidney problems. other side effects are sudden kidney problems, genital yeast infections, increased bad cholesterol, and urinary tract infections, which may be serious. taking jardiance with a sulfonylurea or insulin may cause low blood sugar. tell your doctor about all the medicines you take and if you have any medical conditions. man: ask your doctor about jardiance and get to the heart of what matters. back in march bart

did you know that golf courses are the fifth most common place for people to suffer from sudden cardiac arrest? our health expert, karen owoc, is here to explain how you can survive a round of golf golf statistics according to the american heart association, a golfer is one of over 380,000 people in the united states each year to

suffer from out-of-hospital sudden cardiac arrest and less than seven percent survive. á the other four most common places for sudden cardiac arrest are airports, shopping malls, stadiums, and jails. sudden cardiac arrest vs heart attack - they're different sudden cardiac arrest (sca) is often called a "heart attack", but the conditions are different. sudden cardiac arrest is a condition in which the heart suddenly and unexpectedly stops functioning. heart attack is when an artery is blocked and restricts blood flow to the heart. one is an electrical problem and one is a plumbing problem

the worst case the worst case scenario is having a cardiac event on a distant hole. on your next golf outing, it's a good idea to do the following when you schedule your tee-off time: 1. find out if the golf course is equipped with an automated external defibrillator (aed), where it's located, who is trained to use it, and if that person is on the premises at all times. (it's best if the marshal also keeps one in the cart and can operate it.) á a defibrillator can deliver an electric shock that can restore a normal rhythm to a heart that's stopped beating, but the sooner lifesaving treatment can begin, the chances of survival are greater. á permanent brain damage can occur after only

four minutes without oxygen, and death can occur within four to six minutes after that. how fast do you think you or your golf partners can get help on the golf course?2. get the clubhouse phone number and find out if they have an emergency phone number (that is, a number where you won't be put on hold in an emergency). save these contact numbers in your phone. each player in your group should do this. 3. stay hydrated and avoid alcohol -- especially if the weather is hot. alcohol is a diuretic and will further deplete your body of essential fluid and electrolytes. dehydration can affect your heart rhythm and can be a life- threatening condition. 4. be on alert if you have a history of coronary heart disease (chd) and/or you're a man over age 45 or a woman over age 55. men are two to three times more likely to have sca than women. 5. be a regular exerciser -- not a weekend golf warrior. a sedentary lifestyle puts you at risk for sca. 6. pick a partner that knows cpr!

healthy body. lower your risk for heart disease and sca, and you may also lower your score in golf (ácommercialá)(áábreakáá) ( marty ) a ground- breaking rom-com and a thriller are now playing theaters this weekend. david daniel has a preview.
