Your Medicare Checklist: What to Review Before Medicare Enrollment Ends
Medicare Annual Enrollment Period (AEP) is coming to a close—and fast. December 1st will be here before you know it. If you're thinking about switching plans, adjusting your coverage, or finally taking a closer look at your options, now is the time to act.
How to Strengthen Your Immune System Naturally
A strong immune system helps your body fight off infections, recover faster, and stay energized. During winter, this becomes especially important. The cooler temps bring people indoors, where germs are able to spread more easily. This helps to contribute to the peak of flu season. With weakened immune systems, this puts seniors more at risk for complications. Giving your immune system a little extra support during these months is one of the best steps you can take for your health.
