Post Cardiac Rehab Announces Floor Supervision Hours

Many questions have been coming to our attention concerning the hours and days of our service to post cardiac rehab clients.  They are Monday–Friday during the hours of 9:00 AM through 1:00 PM.  Looking forward to seeing you.

Chocolate and Caffeine

My News-Press article of February 19 dealt with the anti-oxidants in dark chocolate.  Some readers have contacted me because I did not mention the caffeine in chocolate.  The article was not intended to address caffein but I thought it would be good to talk about it.  Yes, there is a small amount of caffeine in chocolate, from 1-10 mg per ounce, depending on the type.  Compared with coffee and soft drinks which have 55 mg and up this is minmal, but for someone who is hypersensitve to caffeine it deserves consideration.
