Mixing Alcohol with Your Diabetes You Can Drink If Your Blood Sugar Is Well Controlled – and You Take the Right Steps to Be Safe
Diabetes Education – #16 Mixing Alcohol with Your Diabetes You can drink if your blood sugar is well controlled – and you take the right steps to be safe. If you have diabetes, you may think that drinking is off limits. Not so! Keeping an eye on how much and what you drink can help you drink more safely. You can avoid the alcohol-related pitfalls: • low blood sugar • weight gain • high blood pressure. Before you have a drink, ask yourself the 3 questions below. The ADA (American Diabetes Association) suggests these: • Is my diabetes in good control? • Does my health care team agree that I can have alcohol? • Do I know how alcohol can affect me and my blood sugar? If you can answer "yes" to all 3 questions, it is likely OK to have a drink. But make sure you know the potential effects of drinking. And, make sure you know your personal limits. What happens when you drink? Between meals and while you sleep, the liver makes new glucose (sugar). The liver then sends this sugar into the bloodstream. Here, it helps to prevent or slow down a low blood sugar reaction. When you drink, it disrupts the process. Substances form when alcohol breaks down in the liver. These substances block the liver from making new glucose. Blood sugars fall and you can quickly become too low. Diabetes Education – #16 Treat hypoglycemia quickly Drinking can affect your blood sugar for up to 12 hours. So test your blood sugar before going to bed. If it is in the 100 – 140 mg/dL range, you may be fine. -

Managing a High Output Ostomy: for Patients with an Ileostomy Or Jejunostomy
Form: D-8844 Managing a High Output Ostomy: For patients with an ileostomy or jejunostomy Read this brochure to learn: • what is a high output ostomy • why is a high output ostomy a problem • what foods and drinks can help you manage it What is a high output ostomy? A high output ostomy is when your ostomy output (the amount of waste coming out of your stoma) is more than 1.2 litres (about 5 cups) in a day. Signs of a high output ostomy include: • having to empty your stoma bag more than 8 times a day • having watery output Why is it a problem? You may become dehydrated (your body does not get enough water) if you have too much output. Your body may not absorb fluids well when you have a high output ostomy. Signs of dehydration are: • feeling thirsty • peeing less than usual • having dark yellow pee • losing weight • having dry lips and mouth • having a headache, dizziness or fatigue 2 How can I manage a high output ostomy? Making some changes to how you eat and drink can help manage a high output ostomy. Your health care team may also give you medicine to help manage a high output ostomy. 9 Have a small meal every 2 to 3 hours. This helps your body absorb food better and meet your nutrition needs. 9 Chew your food very well. This makes it easier for your body to break down and use the food you eat. 9 Do not drink fluids while you eat. Wait 30 minutes before and after a meal before drinking fluids. -

Older people are at higher risk of dehydration due to body changes in the ageing process. The risk of dehydration can be increased further when Stimulant laxatives e.g. Senna, Bisacodyl - these stimulate the bowels elderly patients are prescribed medicines for chronic conditions due to old speeding up bowel movements and so less water is absorbed from the age. stool as it passes through the bowels. Some medicines can affect fluid balance in the body and this may result in more water being lost through the kidneys as urine.

Introduction
Workshop Summary Report Salish Sea Fish Assemblage Workshop September 18th 2018 Seattle, Washington Prepared by Zoe van Duivenbode Introduction Changes in the composition and abundance of fish assemblages within the Salish Sea region have long been a topic of interest for management, as they can result in a variety of possible consequences associated with species/population management, habitat conservation, and ecological shifts. The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW), and SeaDoc Society organized a workshop to gather managers, researchers, and policy-makers involved in Salish Sea fish assemblages to share and discuss evidence of fish community change, impacts of change on species and ecosystem recovery, and to align management priorities and identify research needs. Further, the idea for a workshop originally was identified within the Endangered Species Act Recovery Plan for yelloweye rockfish and bocaccio of the Puget Sound/Georgia Basin (NMFS 2017)1. It became clear that assessing rockfish assemblage change without the context of assessing available information on full fish assemblage change would be insufficient for addressing recovery needs. The goal of the workshop was to identify relevant time-series data, evaluate current research, and discuss how existing efforts may contribute to future management strategies. In addition to the host agencies, workshop participants represented a collection of agencies and organizations including the Department of Fisheries and Oceans Canada, Puget Sound Restoration Fund, Seattle Aquarium, Samish Tribe’s Department of Natural Resources, Port Gamble S'Klallam Tribe, Washington Department of Ecology, WDFW, University of Washington and more (see appendix for full list of participants and organizations). -

The purposes of this investigation were to (a) analyze blood osmolality, arginine vasopressin (AVP), and aldosterone; (b) assess the responses of physiological, thirst, and hydration indices; and (c) compare the responses of individuals with high and low total water intake (TWI; HIGH and LOW, respectively) when consuming similar volumes of water each day and when their habitual total water intake was modified. -
Water Requirements, Impinging Factors, and Recommended Intakes
Rolling Revision of the WHO Guidelines for Drinking-Water Quality Draft for review and comments (Not for citation) Water Requirements, Impinging Factors, and Recommended Intakes By A. Grandjean World Health Organization August 2004 2 Introduction Water is an essential nutrient for all known forms of life and the mechanisms by which fluid and electrolyte homeostasis is maintained in humans are well understood. Until recently, our exploration of water requirements has been guided by the need to avoid adverse events such as dehydration. Our increasing appreciation for the impinging factors that must be considered when attempting to establish recommendations of water intake presents us with new and challenging questions. This paper, for the most part, will concentrate on water requirements, adverse consequences of inadequate intakes, and factors that affect fluid requirements. Other pertinent issues will also be mentioned. For example, what are the common sources of dietary water and how do they vary by culture, geography, personal preference, and availability, and is there an optimal fluid intake beyond that needed for water balance? Adverse consequences of inadequate water intake, requirements for water, and factors that affect requirements Adverse Consequences Dehydration is the adverse consequence of inadequate water intake. The symptoms of acute dehydration vary with the degree of water deficit (1). For example, fluid loss at 1% of body weight impairs thermoregulation and, thirst occurs at this level of dehydration. Thirst increases at 2%, with dry mouth appearing at approximately 3%. Vague discomfort and loss of appetite appear at 2%. The threshold for impaired exercise thermoregulation is 1% dehydration, and at 4% decrements of 20-30% is seen in work capacity. -
