FACT FRIDAY!

Monday is the day of the week when the risk of heart attack is greatest. Yet another reason to loathe Mondays! A ten year study in Scotland found that 20% more people die of heart attacks on Mondays than any other day of the week. Researchers theorize that it’s a combination of too much fun over the weekend with the stress of going back to work that causes the increase.

Good thing it's Friday! Enjoy the weekend!

MONEY SAVING MONDAY!

Welcome back everyone! Did you know different pharmacies charge different amounts for the same drug? Just like shopping for a health plan, shop around for a pharmacy that has the cheapest price for the prescription you need.

Money Saving Monday!

Check to see if your brand name drug has a generic alternative. Generic drugs are almost always a fraction of the price of a brand name or preferred drug.

Welcome back everyone!

Money Saving Monday!

Consider a high deductible plan!

It might feel like a big switch if you're used to paying $20 office co-pays. But a high-deductible (HD) health plan can save you hundreds of dollars per month in lower premiums. These plans (which have an annual deductible of at least $1,100 for individuals; $2,200 for families) are great if your family is healthy and doesn't usually visit the doctor too often.

Welcome back!

FACT FRIDAY!

It is not possible to tickle yourself. Even the most ticklish among us do not have the ability to tickle ourselves. The reason behind this is that your brain predicts the tickle from information it already has, like how your fingers are moving. Because it knows and can feel where the tickle is coming from, your brain doesn’t respond in the same way as it would if someone else was doing the tickling.

Hopefully we see some sun this weekend! See you next week!

Money Saving Monday!

Most insurance companies have health plan options that allow you to choose from among health insurance policies that have lower monthly premiums if you consent to pay more out-of-pocket costs, such as a yearly deductible and copayments for services and prescription medications. If you are healthy and do not anticipate any (or a small amount of) medical spending in the coming year, choosing a plan with larger out-of-pocket expenses may make sense for you!

Hope everyone enjoyed their holiday weekend!

FACT FRIDAY!

Your body gives off enough heat in 30 minutes to bring half a gallon of water to a boil. If you’ve seen the Matrix you are aware of the energy potentially generated by the human body. Our bodies expend a large amount of calories keeping us at a steady 98.6 degrees, enough to boil water or even cook pasta.

Enjoy the weekend!
