At one of our earlier meetings this year, we had a medical guest speaker from the Cleveland Clinic on Women's Breast Health.  We received lots of good information, some of the highlights follows:

> when you go for your mammogram, ask what your breast density is; it's good to know this for future readings

> try to use facilites that utilize digital imaging, it's much more accurate

> utilitze the breast cancer risk assesment tool at www.cancer.gov/bcrisktool

> consider taking 400 mcg/d of Folic Acid and a multi vitamin daily

> consider adding 1,000 units (2,000 in winter) of Vitamin D to your daily supplements as well as 1200 mg of Calcium

> consult your physician for these and other ways to reduce your risk of breast cancer

LADIES OF HARLEY

WHAT IS IT? 

Ladies of Harley (LOH) is another benefit of membership, not a separate organization within H.O.G. or local chapters.  Ladies of Harley was established to help women become more active members of H.O.G. and their exisitng local chapter.  You cannot open a separate Ladies of Harley chapter nor offer activities exclusive to LOH members.  You can, of course, organize events that may be more appealing to the LOH members, but all members must be welcome.

Whether you ride your own bike or as a passenger, you are welcome to join.

 

 

We are always looking for topics to present to women riders, if you have a suggestion, please contact Lynda Drake, LOH Officer at dancingdesert@msn.com.
