Happy Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving is one of the nation's favorite holidays. But did you know that it is celebrated in Canada as well?

Thanksgiving in Canada originated purely as a harvest festival. English explorer Martin Frobisher hosted the first Canadian Thanksgiving. It was held in what is now Newfoundland during his expedition's attempts to find the Northwest Passage to the Orient in 1578 and marked their safe arrival to the New World. With time, American traditions like the turkey were added by the United Empire Loyalists around the time of the American Revolution.

A-1 Home Care sincerely wishes you and your family a wonderful Thanksgiving. A-1 Home Care is a nonmedical home health agency that has over 20 years of experience providing 24 hour caregiving in Orange County and Los Angeles.

A British study looked at the ways a Mediterranean diet impacted a group of women with Rheumatoid Arthritis. Half of the women took a cooking class on Mediterranean style eating.
