Located Next to The Orlando Eye - 8441 International Dr., #290, Orlando, FL 

While most youngsters are playing 

video games, hunting Pokemón 

or watching TV, 14-year-old Oliver 

Getley and his friends are taking 

action to help other people around 

the world. Oliver’s school, Windy 

Ridge School, started a campaign 

to raise money for Charity: Water, 

a nonprofit organization that raises 

funds to build wells in countries that 

need access to clean water. 

When the campaign became 

stagnant around spring break, 

Oliver knew something needed 

to be done if they were going to 

reach their $10,000 goal. Then he 

came up with the idea of organizing 

a walk in Courtleigh Park, his 

neighborhood. 

“I wanted to bring people together 

in the community and for the cause,” 

Oliver said. “People in the U.S., we 

take clean water for granted since 

we have it pretty much every single 

day.” 

All WRS eighth-graders, Oliver 

and several classmates brainstormed 

and planned the walk. The community 

allowed a banner to be hung at 

the entrance of the neighborhood. 

The teens also walked door to door, 

handed out fliers, posted on social 

media, and Oliver spoke at a community 

meeting to get the word out. 

This came as a surprise to Oliver’s 

mom, Debbie Wilson, who did 

not know her son’s plans until he was 

about to speak in front of 60 people. 

“I didn’t even know he was doing 

it until a soccer game,” Debbie said. 

“He said, ‘I need to go.’” 

Before speaking to the crowd, 

Oliver asked his mom, “What do I 

say?” 

She told him, “‘Just speak from the 

heart.‘ And he did. He stood in front 

of 60 people and spoke from the 

heart about what he wanted to do.” 

The day of the walk was a bustle 

of activity as Oliver and his classmates 

set up and prepared. They 

had mapped out a route of about 

3 miles, starting and ending at the 

neighborhood park. The kids spread

out and were stationed at various 

points along the route so they could 

cheer on walkers as they passed. 

“The reason why we did it for 3 

miles was to give people an idea of 

how many miles people have to walk 

to get clean water,” Oliver said. 

They also had an empty dairy can 

and a full one that participants could 

pick up, so they could feel how much 

weight people, even children, have 

to carry for that distance to get clean 

water. 

“I was nervous at 8:15 [a.m.], 

when only 10 or 15 people were 

there,” Debbie said. 

Just as Oliver and his classmates 

were starting to think only a few people 

would join them, dozens of neighbors 

began pouring into the park. 

About 70-75 people from Courtleigh 

Park, the school and surrounding 

neighborhoods participated. 

“It was really cool to see all the 

people come out to it, because I 

didn’t think we would have that many 

at first,” Oliver said. “They started 

coming in right before we were 

about to walk. It was really cool to 

see that people actually cared about 

it and took it seriously.” 

“He really re-energized something 

back into our community,” Debbie 

said. “It was perfect. Everyone had 

fun. It was just terrific.” 

The walk raised about $4,000 for 

the campaign. 

“If we didn’t have the walk, we 

probably wouldn’t have hit our goal 

of $10,000,” Oliver said. 

Oliver is thinking about making 

the walk an annual event, with either 

continuing to donate to Charity: 

Water or choosing a different charity 

every year. 

“It feels really good to do all the 

charity stuff, because you know 

you’re helping other people,” he 

said. 

“You’re never too old or too young 

to make a difference,” Debbie said. 

When she asked if he was proud 

of himself, Oliver told her, “I hadn’t 

really thought about it. I just stepped 

up when something needed to be 

done.”

Dedicated to enhancing health and 

wellness in west Orange County, West 

Orange Healthcare District is making 

some significant investments by funding 

the development of a farm at Tucker 

Ranch and the new Shepherd’s 

Hope headquarters and clinic, both in 

Winter Garden. 

“This goal of becoming the healthiest 

community in the nation is a long-term 

commitment,” said Tracy Swanson, 

WOHD’s executive director. “We hope 

this inspires other parts of west Orange 

and other communities to look for ways 

to help their residents become healthy 

and stay healthy.” 

The health district was created in 

1949 by the Florida Legislature. In 2012, 

the district sold its facilities, including 

Health Central, to Orlando Health. 

The district’s trustees are focused on 

prevention and changing people’s daily 

habits. 

Tucker Ranch 

Winter Garden City Manager Mike 

Bollhoefer is not aware of any other 

GROWING GAINS 

community in Florida developing a selfsustaining 

farm. 

The entire west Orange community’s 

roots include agriculture; however, most 

of the farms and groves that used to be 

there have closed and/or been removed

West Orange 

Takes Steps to Become Healthier 

by Debra Wood 

After the city removes invasive ferns that have taken over the 

ground at Tucker Ranch, an expansive tree canopy appears. 

as residential and commercial 

development have 

taken hold. Charles 

Tucker’s family grew citrus 

and raised cattle on 

the land. Winter Garden 

officials approached the 

health care district about 

supporting its plans for a 

farm at the Tucker Ranch. 

“We thought it would 

be a great idea, partnering 

[with the health care 

district],” Bollhoefer said. 

“We made a presentation, 

and they loved the idea.” 

WOHD provided a $1.7 million grant 

to create a 12-acre sustainable working 

and teaching farm at Tucker Ranch. 

The farm is expected to produce more 

than a million pounds of fresh fruits and 

vegetables annually. The produce will 

be sold at farmers markets, and any 

excess will be offered to hospitals and 

schools. School children and others also 

will be able to visit the farm at scheduled 

times to learn about healthy eating. 

The city will contract with a company 

to run the farm, which will use permaculture 

design principles, eliminating waste 

and using natural pest control. The 

fruits and vegetables will be produced 

in greenhouses, in the ground and 

hydroponically. 

“The farm will become its own self-sustaining 

infrastructure,” Bollhoefer said. 

Winter Garden acquired Tucker Ranch 

in 2011 for $2.1 million. It has since added 

roads, drainage and other infrastructure 

and removed invasive plants. The 

Florida Communities Trust provided an 

$840,252 state grant to preserve and 

develop the site for a park. Those plans 

remain in place. When it opens, the 208- 

acre Tucker Ranch will feature the farm 

and recreational areas, with camping, 

canoeing and walking nature trails. 

The ranch is located off Avalon 

Road and extends to the north shore of 

Johns Lake, including the grounds of

the original West Orange Country 

Club, which closed in the 1920s due 

to drainage and flooding concerns. The 

city will preserve the historic site and 

archway, but the buildings have long 

been gone. 

The project also will include the 

Institute of Health and Nutrition 

at Tucker Ranch, created in partnership 

with the University of Central 

Florida College of Medicine. Clinicians, 

dieticians and chefs will teach cooking 

and nutritional classes at the facility. 

“It will help people become smarter 

about how food [can be] better than 

medicine,” Swanson said. 

The city is also constructing a building 

and pavilion that can be used for 

classes and a teaching kitchen will be 

added onto the original Tucker home, 

which will remain on-site. 

Bollhoefer expects the park and farm 

to open by 2018. 

Shepherd’s Hope 

Winter Garden is adding a new 

farmers market and community 

gardens on Ninth Street, on the east 

side of town, which is considered a 

food desert. 

“Residents also often cannot afford 

healthy foods,” Bolhoefer said. 

A new Shepherd’s Hope clinic, 

with 10 exam rooms and offices, will 

be located adjacent to the farmers 

market. Shepherd’s Hope provides 

free health care to low-income individuals 

who don’t have insurance and 

are ineligible for government-assisted 

health care programs. 

“It will provide a needed service in 

that area,” Bollhoefer said. 

The new location is near Shepherd’s 

Hope’s first clinic, which opened 

in 1997 at Westside Vocational- 

Technical Center. 

“For us, it’s like coming home,” 

said Marni Stahlman, president 

and CEO of Shepherd’s Hope. “For 

the first time, Shepherd’s Hope’s administrative 

functions and a clinic will 

be at the same location. It’s also the 

first time we will own something of our 

own.” 

Stahlman anticipates breaking 

ground in September. The city is 


leasing the nonprofit land for $10 per 

year for the next 30 years. 

The West Orange Healthcare 

District has provided a $1 million 

match grant toward the capital 

construction of Shepherd’s Hope’s 

new Winter Garden Health 

and Administration Center. 

The West Orange Health 

Alliance has granted the first 

$500,000 toward that match, and 

St. Luke’s United Methodist 

Church has granted an additional 

$100,000. In total, $1.1 million has 

already been secured toward the 

total project goal of $3 million. 

“Physicians will be writing prescriptions 

for food as well as medicine,” 

Swanson said. “It will be a unique 

model for Shepherd’s Hope.” 

Additionally, St. Luke’s United 

Methodist Church, whose lead pastor 

at the time, William Barnes, founded 

Shepherd’s Hope, will operate a 

community food pantry and kitchen 

at the Shepherd’s Hope building. 

The pantry and kitchen will be available 

for education about preparing 

foods. 

All care at Shepherd’s Hope is provided 

by volunteer physicians, physician 

assistants, nurse practitioners 

and nurses. Lay volunteers carry out 

support functions, such as checking in 

patients and verifying their eligibility. 

“We can build a beautiful facility 

and sit on a lovely piece of property 

in an ideal location, but in order for 

this to work, we need volunteers,” 

Stahlman said. “It’s not too early. You 

can get practice in another location, 

such as Ocoee. When the new clinic 

opens, you will be ready to go.” ª

The dictionary defines a cruise as 

“a pleasure voyage on a ship, usually 

with stops at various ports.” 

According to Michael Decker, franchise 

partner and owner of Expedia 

CruiseShipCenters Shingle Creek, 

it can and should be so much more 

than that. 

Decker’s 45 independent agents are 

“navigators of spectacular vacation experiences.” 

Building relationships with 

their clients and knowing their individual 

needs are what set them apart. 

“Having your clients’ best interests 

at heart is what builds a remarkable 

travel experience.” 

Decker is well-equipped to do just 

that. His 35 years in the travel industry 

have allowed him to visit 40 countries 

and their most beautiful cities. One of his 

favorite cities to travel to is Vancouver. 

However, “each city has its own beauty 

and unique history,” he said. 

Expedia CruiseShipCenters, located 

near the Orange County Convention 

Center, opened in March 2015. Prior 

to that, Decker was director of sales 

for Expedia Inc. and vice president of 

Cape Canaveral Cruises. 

He said he and his associates are 

“the eyes and ears of Expedia in the 

local community.” 

Seventy-five percent of the business 

that Decker and his associates handle 

is cruise travel, and 25 percent is land 

travel. According to Decker, the cruise 

ship industry is growing by leaps and 

bounds. There are 85 new cruise ships 

scheduled for launch in the next few 

years. 

In order to emphasize how Expedia 

CruiseShipCenters personalizes each 

cruise for each individual traveler, 

Decker likes to tell the story of a recent 

widow who contacted him about taking 

her first cruise as a single person. 

She wanted to take a river cruise with 

a group of people similar to herself. 

Decker organized a group of widows 

who wanted to experience a river 

cruise. In doing so, he helped these 

single ladies network and make new

friends. In addition, he customized the 

ports of call to the interests of the women 

and the pace at which they wanted 

to travel. Now Decker has a relationship 

with this group and is their own 

trusted agent. 

There are multiple testimonials 

singing the praises of each specific 

agent in Decker’s organization. 

They can be found by going 

to CruiseShipCenters International 

Inc.’s website, cruiseshipcenters. 

com/en-US/ShingleCreek. The best 

endorsements also come from previous 

travelers. Decker enjoys putting cruisers, 

who are about to embark upon 

a specific cruise, together with those 

who have previously enjoyed the same 

destination. They chat, and often these 

travelers become a travel group for a 

future cruise. 

He mentioned the Expedia 

CruiseShipCenters Promise that is provided 

to all guests, which is as follows: 

• Advice customers can trust. 

Expedia agents are more than trained 

experts. Its vacation consultants are 

also passionate travelers and cruise 

enthusiasts who can share their experiences 

to create the best vacation 

experiences for their customers. 

• The best choices and prices. 

Expedia offers every cruise option,

from the fantastic value of the most 

popular lines to luxury and river cruises, 

all at Expedia prices. 

• Expedia extras. Whether it’s onboard 

cash credit, Expedia exclusive 

staterooms, reduced deposits, free 

upgrades or special offers, many vacation 

packages come with an Expedia 

bonus. 

• More than cruises. Customers can 

count on Expedia for every vacation 

possibility over land, sea and air, including 

customized trips, coach and 

rail tours, and insurance. 

• Always there. Expedia’s agents are 

there to help — before, during and after 

the trip. Plus, with the availability of 

consultations in person, through email 

or over the phone, along with direct 

booking through the website, customers 

always have the freedom to book 

when, where and how they choose. 

Expedia CruiseShipCenters negotiates 

in advance to obtain exclusive 

inventory on more than 6,000 sailings 

worldwide with exclusive pricing and 

benefits. At the center, they offer special 

promotional events to let the public 

know about upcoming packages and 

“remarkable experiences.” They can 

also customize onboard corporate 

retreats and family reunions. 

When asked what his favorite destination 

is, Decker replied, “The place I 

haven’t been to yet.” 

There is a world of experience to be 

had. 

Expedia CruiseShipCenters Shingle Creek is located 

at 9938 Universal Blvd. in Orlando. Operating hours 

are Monday through Friday from 10 a.m.-6 p.m. and 

Saturday from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. Sunday appointments may

This is why the U.S. Food & Drug 

Administration recently launched an 

effort to define what “healthy” actually 

means. 

In a statement, the agency said that 

“redefining ‘healthy’ is part of an overall 

plan to provide consumers with information 

and tools to enable them to 

easily and quickly make food choices 

consistent with public health recommendations 

and to encourage the development 

of healthier foods by the industry.”

The FDA has made an ongoing effort 

to help Americans make healthier 

food choices. This year it changed the 

labels on packaged goods to reflect 

how the public actually eats and to 

highlight added sugar in these products. 

The font size on the labeling also 

is larger, and there is additional nutrient 

information, such as the amount of 

vitamin D, potassium and calcium. 

At this time, the FDA offers a guidance 

document for manufacturers with 

a definition of the “healthy” claim used 

on food labels. There are two criteria:

1. The food is not low in total fat but 

has a fat profile makeup of predominately 

mono and polyunsaturated fat. 

2. The food contains at least 10 percent 

of the Daily Value (DV) of potassium 

or vitamin D. 

As part of this process, the FDA is 

asking the public for input on what 

“healthy” should mean from a nutritional 

standpoint, what their current 

interpretation of “healthy” is on 

food labels, and how this may affect 

their purchasing decisions. While 

the FDA works to redefine “healthy” 

on food labels, manufacturers can 

still use this term on their products as 

long as they meet current regulatory 

requirements. 

The reality is that the American diet 

is filled with processed foods, added 

sugar, salt and saturated fat, so making 

changes to how we define and 

label proper nutrition is necessary. 

However, a tried-and-true approach 

to healthier eating is a diet filled with 

lean meats, fruits, vegetables, nuts 

and seeds, which will help consumers 

avoid the issue of food labels in the 

first place. 

A good rule of thumb is to stick to 

foods that maintain their quality and 

freshness for about a week in your refrigerator 

— and not those with expiration 

dates in the next decade. 

Long-Term 

Care Insurance 

by Andy Phillips, Agent 

State Farm Insurance 

www.andyphillipsagent.com 

407-354-1320 

Long-term care refers to the services 

you need when you’re certified 

chronically ill, not able to function independently, 

and need assistance performing 

at least two to three Activities 

of Daily Living (ADLs), resulting from 

a prolonged physical illness or severe 

cognitive impairment. 

• Seventy percent of people age 

65-older need long-term care at some 

point in their lives. 

• The average cost of a nursing 

home stay is $87,600 per year. 

• In addition, 65 percent of care 

workers have missed time from work to 

care for another person. 

The purchase of long-term care insurance 

can help pay for care at home, 

adult day care, care at an assisted living 

facility, or care at a long-term care 

facility. 

Long-term care can help you keep 

the assets that you have spent your 

lifetime building and still maintain your 

current standard of living. 

An insurance agent can provide you 

with more details about this important 

coverage. 

A Place 

for the Mind & Body

Everybody knows that libraries 

are healthy for your mind — reading 

enriches your life, connects you 

to new worlds, and opens doors 

to new opportunities. But did you 

know that today’s libraries also contribute 

to a healthy lifestyle in other 

ways? 

While libraries still lend books, 

they also host programs, events and 

classes that can help you improve 

your body inside and out. Yoga, tai 

chi, meditation, healthy cooking, 

parenting and art events are just a 

few of the offerings you can find at 

your local library. Libraries can help 

you try new things, discover new 

hobbies that can help melt away 

the stress in your life, or introduce 

you to activities that can contribute 

to a healthier lifestyle. 

And, of course, libraries contribute 

to better literacy in the community. 

While reading won’t tone your 

abs, it can contribute to your overall 

health. According to Science 

Daily, strong reading skills are tied 

to a healthier life. Studies show that 

reading helps reduce stress and 

can help fight off cognitive decline. 

So, next time you’re thinking 

about developing healthier habits, 

think about visiting a library — a 

place where you can keep both 

your body and mind in shape.

Early 

Detection of Breast 

Cancer Saves Lives 

by Douglas Gearity, M.D., FACOG 

The Women’s Center 

www.wcorlando.com 

407-857-2502 

Early detection is the way to save 

lives when it comes to breast cancer. 

Through accessible mammography 

screenings, it can be done in every 

community. The most common cancer 

among women worldwide and the 

second most common cancer overall 

is breast cancer. In 2014, an estimated 

232,030 cases of invasive breast 

cancer were diagnosed in the U.S. 

alone. 

Signs and symptoms of breast cancer 

can include the following: nipple 

changes; a breast lump or thickening 

that feels different from surrounding tissue; 

bloody discharge from the nipple; 

a change in the size or shape of the 

breasts, including changes in the skin 

over the breasts, such as dimpling; an 

inverted nipple; peeling, scaling or 

flaking of the nipple or breast skin; 

sores on the chest wall that won’t go 

away; redness or pitting of the skin 

over the breast that may resemble an 

orange peel; persistent pain or tenderness 

in a specific location of the 

breast; a lump or thickening of the tissue 

under the arm or collarbone; or 

breast swelling. 

No symptoms? You should screen 

anyway. No matter who you are or 

where you live, understanding breast 

cancer is important. But the most important 

thing to know is a diagnosis 

is not a death sentence. Breast cancer 

can be treated, but early detection is 

important. 

The Importance of 

Straight, Healthy Teeth 

by Lauris Johnson, D.M.D. 

My Family Orthodontics 

www.myfamilyortho.com 

407-258-3262 

Let’s face it, we live in a society 

where first impressions matter, and 

the quality of our smiles tells our individual 

stories before we say our first 

hello. Not only does having straight, 

healthy teeth improve a person’s 

quality of life by boosting self-esteem 

and helping to build positive social 

relationships, it also improves overall 

health and adds a few years to one’s 

life. 

Research has shown that having 

straight teeth makes oral hygiene 

methods like brushing and flossing 

easier, which directly reduces cavities 

and gum disease. Straighter teeth also 

help prevent systemic health issues, 

such as diabetes and coronary heart 

disease. Medical science has found 

that the same bacteria that infects the 

gums and causes gingivitis and periodontitis 

can enter the bloodstream 

and cause cardiovascular disease. 

The link between diabetes and poor 

oral health is devastating. If it gets severe 

enough in a diabetic person, it 

can further increase blood sugar levels, 

which could cause diabetic complications. 

Having straight, healthy 

teeth impacts a person’s smile and 

total well-being.

Redness, stinging, burning, scratchiness, 

sensitivity to light and contact 

lens intolerance are common complaints 

ophthalmologists hear every 

day. What these complaints have 

in common is that they are common 

symptoms of the same diagnosis — 

dry eye syndrome. This condition is 

often underdiagnosed and undertreated. 

Physicians are only now 

discovering the complexity of dry 

eyes and its multifactorial causes. It 

is emerging as a new area of interest 

in the eye care industry, because 

people are experiencing dry eyes at 

a younger age. This comes as we 

rely more on our vision and eyes 

than ever before because of technological 

advances. 

There are a number of new treatments 

and diagnostic indicators that 

can help diagnose and treat dry eyes

in more sophisticated and effective 

ways than just over-the-counter artificial 

tears. Good starting points for the 

self-treatment of dry eye syndrome include 

taking omega-3 fish oil supplements, 

practicing good lid hygiene, 

using warm compresses, the discontinuation 

of ceiling fans, and the use 

of humidifiers. Artificial tears can help 

provide symptomatic relief in some 

patients but may just serve as a Band- 

Aid while not treating the root cause. 

This can sometimes be ultimately detrimental; 

therefore, doctors recommend 

having an evaluation to find out the 

type or types of dry eye a patient has 

and directing treatment specifically. 

Age-Fighting Skin 

Treatments for Men 

by Janet Beres, PA-C, Master Trained 

Injector, and Suzanna Suto, Aesthetician 

Spa Blue 

spablue.com 

407-772-2583 

More than ever, men are seeking 

skin treatments that can help them 

look younger, more relaxed and 

less tired, especially when treating 

the under-eye area. For most men, 

it’s not about looking younger, it’s 

about looking well-rested. 

Botox Cosmetic tops the list of 

male cosmetic procedures, but 

the latest revolutionary treatment 

is platelet-rich plasma. PRP, also 

known as the Vampire Facial, is being 

used in many aspects of medicine, 

including skin rejuvenation, 

thinning/balding hair, sexual rejuvenation, 

joints, urology, gastrointestinal 

and dentistry. PRP is a great 

choice for rejuvenating the skin in 

men, because there is no downtime 

with this procedure. PRP is 

all-natural, using the patient’s own 

serum so there is no risk for side effects. 

The improvement in the skin 

tone and wrinkles is gradual over 

a few weeks, and males love the 

fact that they look younger, rested 

and refreshed. Focus can be placed 

on the under-eye area and crow’sfeet 

region, which helps clients look 

rested instead of exhausted for 

Friday’s happy hour. PRP for hair 


loss helps to regrow hair and slow 

the progression of hair loss. There 

is a lot of success with this nonsurgical 

one-hour procedure, and 

it is currently undergoing clinical 

trials. 

Healthy 

Living for Children 

by Bindu Parekattil, M.D., FAAP 

Ocoee Pediatrics 

www.ocoeekidsdocs.com 

407-395-2037 

The most important healthy living 

guidelines for children involve nutrition, 

sleep and exercise. These three 

components are key to decreasing the 

risk of developing chronic diseases 

such as hypertension and diabetes, 

which today are developing more 

often in children. 

Nutrition should focus on them 

getting four to five servings of fruits 

and vegetables a day. Parents 

should discourage sugary beverages 

by starting off in infancy with 

water instead of juice. They should 

also try to avoid products with added 

sugar as part of their regular 

diet. 

The goal for children is 60 minutes 

of exercise per day. This can 

be broken up into segments. For 

example, 20 minutes walking to 

a bus stop, 20 minutes in a gym, 

and 20 minutes riding their bikes 

after school. Limit screen time, 

and encourage kids to get up and 

move! 

Sleep is something that is often not 

thought of as important for disease 

prevention, but research is showing 

the value of good sleep. Encourage 

your children to develop good 

sleep hygiene such as regular bedtimes. 

The recommended amount 

of sleep varies: Preschoolers need 

10-13 hours, school-aged children 

need nine-12 hours, and teens need 

eight-10 hours. Getting adequate, 

good-quality sleep leads to better 

school performance, decreased 

mental health issues, and better 

physical health.

The Mental 

& Physical Health 

Benefits of Theater 

by Elina Moon, Marketing Intern 

Orlando Repertory Theatre 

www.orlandorep.com 

407-896-7365 

When people think about what it 

means to be healthy, things that come 

to mind might be eating a balanced 

diet, brushing their teeth and exercising 

every day. But, did you know 

that theater can be a big part of your 

healthy lifestyle, as well? 

Participating in theater — whether 

by attending a show, performing or 

working backstage — is a great way 

to enrich your life and the lives of those 

in your family. Engaging in this art form 

is not only good entertainment but also 

has both mental and physical health 

benefits. People who attend performing 

arts events have been shown to 

be significantly healthier, have lower 

anxiety and be less likely to suffer from 

depression and loneliness. 

Did you know seeing live theater 

can actually make you smarter? 

Studies by neuroscientists show that 

both the left and right sides of the 

brain need to be used in order for 

the brain to reach its full potential. 

This means it is not only important 

for children to use their brains for 

math and science but also for creative-thinking 

activities like art and 

theater. Seeing plays is also a good 

way to learn new vocabulary. Where 

else can people learn fun words 

like “scrumdiddlyumptious” and 

“fantasmagorical?” 

Theater also encourages greater 

tolerance and empathy toward others. 

Through theater, audiences are 

introduced to characters from all 

walks of life. Live shows teach children 

how to comprehend and empathize 

with other people’s feelings and 

views, especially those that may be 

different from their own. 

Seeing comedies and musicals 

is especially good for one’s physical 

health. It is said that laughter is 

the best medicine, and studies have 

proven this to be true. Officials of the 

Mayo Clinic say laughter is a great 

way to relieve stress and stimulate 

organs. It boosts people’s endorphins 

and delivers extra oxygen to their 

muscles, lungs and hearts, which can 

help strengthen their immune system. 

The Importance 

of Hormones 

as People Age 

by John C. Carrozzella, M.D., 

MSMS, ABAARM, FAARFM 

Florida Center for 

Hormones and Wellness 

www.hormonesandwellness.com 

407-507-3837 

Many of us already know that hormones 

such as estrogen and testosterone 

decline with age, and along with 

that decline comes a significant reduction 

in sex drive and physical intimacy. 

What is not commonly known is that 

hormonal decline is also associated 

with a number of diseases of aging. 

After menopause, women see a dramatic 

rise in the incidences of heart 

disease, dementia, osteoporosis and 

breast cancer. These diseases are associated 

with very high death rates. 

Similarly, men, whose testosterone 

levels fall every year after the age of 

25, also see similar increases in agerelated 

diseases. The secret that so 

many traditional doctors either do not 

know or are unwilling to accept is that 

restoring hormone levels to those that 

are common and normal in younger 

women and men can promote healthy 

aging and reduce death rates. 

Many medical journal articles 

have correctly condemned the use 

of synthetic hormones as dangerous. 

However, the literature on the use of 

bioidentical hormones has been conclusive 

about the fact that bioidentical 

hormone therapy is safe and effective 

at reducing disease and improving 

health and longevity in those who are 

properly treated. 

If you are looking to maintain your 

health and vitality well into your senior 

years, bioidentical hormone therapy is 

an essential treatment that will help 

you do so. It may also help you have 

a little more intimate “fun” along the 

way.

Fun & Fitness 

Through Youth Sports 

by Mike Schmelzle, Board Secretary 

West Orange Bobcats 

www.westorangebobcats.com 

westorangebobcats@gmail.com 

Today, one in five children are 

obese, defined as excess body fat. 

Children with a body mass index 

above the 85th percentile are overweight, 

and children above the 95th 

percentile have obesity. 

Low self-esteem in children is part 

of the root cause of obesity. Telling 

children that they need to lose weight 

can give them low self-esteem. 

Advocating healthy living is the key to 

success. 

Eating healthy and exercising are 

tough to implement for many people 

unless they can make it fun. Youth 

sports make exercising fun, and they 

build up self-esteem as children master 

new skills. The joy of winning a 

game as a team gives children confidence 

and creates long-lasting 

friendships with their teammates. The 

sorrow of losing a game gives them 

the tenacity to work harder together 

to reach their goals. Playing sports 

will become their exercise while having 

fun. 

Consider a youth sports organization 

that is affiliated with a national 

organization. This will offer better 

managerial structure with a focus on 

safety, and, most importantly, proper 

training for the coaches. 

Cheerleading and football programs 

are signing up now for their fall 

season, with conditioning starting this 

month. Most organizations will not require 

any experience, and some will 

not have any weight restrictions.

Keeping Skin, 

Hair & Nails Healthy 

by Michael Steppie, M.D., President and 

Medical Director 

Associates in Dermatology 

www.dermorlando.com 800-827-7546 

The practice of dermatology involves 

improving and maintaining not only 

the appearance but also the health of 

your skin, hair and nails. 

The skin barrier, which serves as a 

physical protection and an immune 

defense, can become disrupted. In order 

to restore its functions, it is important 

to use mild cleansers and avoid overuse 

of harsh scrubs. While cleansing, water 

should be lukewarm to prevent stripping 

the skin of its natural fats and oils that 

provide it with moisture. Immediately 

after bathing, the skin should be patted 

dry, and a gentle, fragrance-free moisturizer 

should be applied. 

It is also common to experience a 

dry, itchy scalp. This condition is most 

commonly caused by seborrheic dermatitis 

and is characterized by red 

and flaky patches on the scalp, which 

may resemble dandruff. 

Your nails can become dry, brittle 

and split. It is essential to avoid using 

harsh soaps when washing hands, as 

this will remove the protective natural 

oils found in your nails. Then, apply a 

moisturizer and be sure to rub it into 

the cuticles and nails to restore their 

strength. 

It is important to schedule an appointment 

with a dermatologist to receive 

specific recommendations on the 

best skin care routine for you. ª

As a case manager at South 

Lake Hospitals’s intensive care unit, 

Gotha resident Judy Williams, 

RN, facilitated finding health care 

services that patients would need 

once discharged from the unit and 

ultimately the hospital. At times, hospice 

was the best option. When she

the west Orange County community

services, including a Cornerstone

Inspired by the Lake County organization

n Hidden Springs/ 

Estates 

Brian and Elizabeth Velez 

were selected as the recent Hidden 

Springs/Estates Yard of the Quarter 

winners. The Velez family is deeply 

entrenched in the Dr. Phillips community. 

They purchased their Hidden 

Springs/Estates home in 2004. The 

couple also went to Dr. Phillips High 

School, as their two children currently 

do. Their son is on the Panthers football 

team, and their daughter is on 

the varsity cheerleading squad. Brian 

is the chef at Fresco Cucina Italiana, 

and Elizabeth co-owns Mondi Hair 

Salon with her mother. The Velez 

yard, which has garnered this award 

twice, recently went through some 


renovations, including new sand-colored 

pavers in the driveway, along the 

sides and back of the home, and on 

compiled by Lauren Salinero the pool deck; new windows, sliders 

and a new front door; and new paint 

on the exterior of the 

home. The couple 

was able to create a 

more contemporarylooking 

house from 

the typical ranchstyle 

that is prevalent 

in Hidden Springs/ 

Estates. They also 

renovated the back 

of the home with 

new pavers, a fire 

pit and gazebo. The

the one-year anniversary of the 

Pulse nightclub shooting. In partnership 

with Hang a Heart Inc., the children

The hearts were passed out with a 

letter explaining the child-led mission 

to every neighbor in The Manors at

In the letter, the children 

requested that neighbors hang their

a financial boost in caring for some 

of its longtime residents. The Turtle 

Hospital in Marathon received a donation 

of $1,800 as part of WES’s 

Windermere Cares project and 

proceeds from its annual Earth Day 

Art Contest. Science teacher Lynn 

Tidmus challenged each grade — 

kindergarten through fifth — to bring 

in earned or spare change for two 

weeks to support the sea turtles. The 

children learned about the risks to 

Florida’s imperiled sea turtles and 

simple things they can do to help reduce 

those risks, like picking up trash 

and turning off lights at the beach. 

They raised $1,400 during the challenge, 

with the first grade raising the 

most money. Out of 150 submissions,
