Silver Quill Southeast Senior Services M ARCH 2017 V OLUME 1 N O . 161 Small Changes = Big Wins Janet Brown, RD, LRD Dietitian for Valley Senior Services If you recall from last month’s article, MyPlate was discussed (website: choosemyplate.gov). My Plate has a new program called MyPlate MyWins. They provide “real-life solutions for a healthy eating style.” These changes or solutions are practical – as MyPlate describes “everyone has different eating habits” and is not a “one size fits all”. MyPlate encourages us to celebrate every change no matter how big or small. We are even encouraged to call even the smallest changes – “WINS”. Here are some MyPlate ‘small changes’ that can lead to big ‘wins’: (Daily goals: consume <2000 mg of sodium and <20 g of saturated fat) Breakfast: Minimize the bakery goods (ie: doughnuts and pastries). Concentrate on whole grains (oats, cereals, breads) and fresh fruit. Breakfast swaps – Instead of: sausage/egg/biscuit sandwich – Choose: ham/egg/whole grain English muffin – save 650 mg sodium for one day! Instead of: cinnamon roll – Choose: 100% whole grain granola bar and banana – save 7 g of saturated fat in one day! Or >2500 g for a whole year!! Lunch: Lighten up salads by choosing non-fried meats, light vinaigrette dressings, no bacon or croutons (well maybe just a few). These changes add up to a savings of 13 g saturated fat or ~12 sticks of butter if chosen 3 times a week for a year! OR – instead of: 2 slices pepperoni pizza – Choose: 1 slice vegetable pizza/side salad/apple – Save: 750 mg sodium in one day! Dinner: If dining out – look for baked, broiled or steamed meats rather than fried or cooked in butter. Add vegetables, brown rice, baked potato or whole wheat pasta to health up your meal. These changes can amount to a savings of 7 grams of saturated fat in one day! OR 6 sticks of butter if this change is made 1 time every week for one year! Snacks: Choose dips and toppings made from vegetables rather than cheese or butter – using hummus instead of creamy ranch dressing can save ~60 calories and 4 g of saturated fat. Swap fresh fruit for canned fruit in medium or heavy syrup. Swap baked chips with salsa for nachos – save 212 mg sodium in one day! Swap air popped popcorn for buttered popcorn and save 15 grams of saturated fat – save 780 g by making this swap 1 time/week for a whole year! Continued on pg 4

Small Changes = Big Wins Janet Brown, RD, LRD Dietitian for Valley Senior Services

If you recall from last month’s article, MyPlate was discussed (website: choosemyplate.gov). My Plate has a new program called MyPlate MyWins. They provide “real-life solutions for a healthy eating style.” These changes or solutions are practical – as MyPlate describes “everyone has different eating habits” and is not a “one size fits all”. MyPlate encourages us to celebrate every change no matter how big or small. We are even encouraged to call even the smallest changes – “WINS”.

Here are some MyPlate ‘small changes’ that can lead to big ‘wins’: (Daily goals: consume <2000 mg of sodium and <20 g of saturated fat)

Breakfast: Minimize the bakery goods (ie: doughnuts and pastries). Concentrate on whole grains (oats, cereals, breads) and fresh fruit.

Breakfast swaps – Instead of: sausage/egg/biscuit sandwich – Choose: ham/egg/whole grain English muffin – save 650 mg sodium for one day!

Instead of: cinnamon roll – Choose: 100% whole grain granola bar and banana – save 7 g of saturated fat in one day! Or >2500 g for a whole year!!

Lunch: Lighten up salads by choosing non-fried meats, light vinaigrette dressings, no bacon or croutons (well maybe just a few). These changes add up to a savings of 13 g saturated fat or ~12 sticks of butter if chosen 3 times a week for a year! OR – instead of: 2 slices pepperoni pizza – Choose: 1 slice vegetable pizza/side salad/apple – Save: 750 mg sodium in one day!

Dinner: If dining out – look for baked, broiled or steamed meats rather than fried or cooked in butter. Add vegetables, brown rice, baked potato or whole wheat pasta to health up your meal. These changes can amount to a savings of 7 grams of saturated fat in one day! OR 6 sticks of butter if this change is made 1 time every week for one year!

ND SMP Scam of the Month MARCH 2017

The top three ways to avoid fraud

Here are three things that can help you avoid scammers who try to call you:

1. Hang up on robocalls. If you pick up the phone and hear a recorded sales pitch, hang up and

report it to the FTC. These calls are illegal. And plentiful. Don’t press 1, 2 or any number to get

off a list or speak to a person. That just means you’ll get even more calls.

2. Don’t trust your caller ID. Scammers can make caller ID look like anyone is calling: the IRS, a

business or government office…even your own phone number. If they tell you to pay money for any

reason, or ask for your financial account numbers, hang up. If you think the caller might be

legitimate, call back to a number you know is genuine – not the number the caller gave you.

3. Talk to someone. Before you give up money or information, talk to someone you trust. Scammers

want you to make decisions in a hurry. Slow down, check out the story, search online – or just tell a

friend. We find that people who talk to someone – anyone – are much less likely to fall for a scam.

For more tips to help protect yourself and loved ones from fraud, contact your local regional volunteer

coordinator or call the ND SMP office for more information for Things You Can Do to Avoid Fraud to share

in your community. And if you spot something that looks like a scam, report it to the FTC at 202-326-2222.

***Alert*** For individuals that assist Medicare or Medicaid beneficiaries with paying medical or healthcare provider

bills, please remember to review and compare the beneficiaries MSN or EOB to their bill. It has come to

our attention that there may be some offices that bill the patient for $$ amounts that are not the patient

responsibility.

Rent Refunds and Property Tax

Credits Available

If you are 65 years old, or totally and permanently disabled, you may be eligible for a rent refund or property tax credit.

Rent Refunds

You may be eligible to receive a rent refund if 20% of your annual rent exceeds 4% of your annual income. Your income cannot exceed $42,000 for the year 2016. A refund cannot exceed $400. For a husband and wife living together, only one can apply for the refund. Only the spouse applying for the refund needs to be 65 years of age.

Property Tax Credit

The property tax credit will reduce the homeowner’s taxable value according to your income. In order to qualify for a property tax credit, your income must not exceed $42,000 and your assets may not exceed $500,000, including the market value of your homestead and the value of any assets gifted or otherwise divested within the last three years. If you believe you are eligible for a property tax credit, you can file an application with your local assessor by February 1 in the year your property is assessed and for which you request a property tax credit. When considering income for both rent refunds and property tax credits, all sources must be considered including, but not limited to, Social Security benefits, pensions, salaries, unemployment benefits, dividends, interest, profits, etc. Life insurance proceeds paid to a surviving spouse or dependent are not included in this act. Medical expenses are deductible from income if not compensated by insurance or other forms of compensation.

The applications will be available towards the end of January and must be filed with the State Tax

Commissioner by May 31st, 2017.
