Eric Dane’s Brave ALS Update

Eric Dane couldn’t make it to the ALS Network’s gala to accept his Advocate of the Year Award because ALS has really taken a toll on him. He’s been super open about his diagnosis and how tough it’s been, but he’s still keeping his spirits up and wants to share his journey to help others. His wife even wrote about how their family is coping. It’s heartbreaking but also inspiring to see how much he’s fighting. #Health #BodyHealth #EricDane

Wait, Booze and Bowel Cancer?

Did you know knocking back just two drinks a day could nearly double your risk of certain bowel cancers? A new study says heavy drinkers face a 95% higher risk for rectal cancer compared to light drinkers. The wild part? If you quit, your risk drops back down. Alcohol is linked to seven types of cancer, but this research is a wake-up call for anyone who thought a couple drinks a day was harmless. Worth rethinking that second round? #Health #BodyHealth #HealthNews

If you feel tired of “pushing through,” that’s your body asking for gentleness, not discipline. Healing isn’t linear, and strength isn’t always loud. Sometimes strength looks like rest, reflection, and choosing yourself without explanation. #life #love #laugh #start #today #fyp #healing #motivation #daily #reminder #grind #news #newsbreak #workout

Nearly 90% of Us Have This Sneaky Health Risk

Wild stat: almost 9 in 10 adults in the US are dealing with cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic (CKM) syndrome—yep, it’s as bad as it sounds. It’s like your heart, kidneys, and metabolism are all dragging each other down, and most people under 50 already have warning signs. Docs say it’s time to pay attention to more than just one health number—think blood pressure, sugar, cholesterol, and kidney function. Small healthy habits = big protection! #Health #BodyHealth #HealthAlert

Your DNA Might Explain Anxiety & Depression

Turns out, depression, anxiety, ADHD, and even OCD might be more connected than we thought—and it’s all in our genes. A massive new study found that a bunch of mental health disorders share the same genetic roots. That could explain why they often show up together. The wild part? These genetic patterns might one day help doctors spot risks early and treat multiple conditions at once. Mind = blown! #Health #MentalHealth #Genetics

Our Healthcare system suffers from Greed...

Our Healthcare system suffers from Greed. Paying twice the cost of other countries with the worst outcomes than other countries. Lack of competition with hospitals and Insurance, increasing Provider wages, inflated medical supplies, and older workers are all contributing to an unaffordable Healthcare plan. #HealthcareWoes #GreedInHealthcare

Some days sobriety feels powerful. Other days it feels heavy. Both days matter. Choosing yourself again and again is what makes it real. #life #love #laugh #start #today #fyp #healing #motivation #daily #reminder #grind #news #newsbreak #workout

Blood Pressure Hacks That Actually Work

Who knew you could lower your blood pressure without popping pills? Turns out, small tweaks like ditching the salt, getting your steps in, and even catching more Zzz’s can seriously help your heart. Losing a few pounds, swapping in more fruits and veggies, and chilling out with some mindfulness are all doctor-approved ways to keep your numbers in check. It’s not about a total life overhaul—just smart, doable changes that add up. Your future self (and your arteries) will thank you! #Health #BodyHealth #HeartHealth

If life feels heavier than usual, it doesn’t mean you’re weak. It often means you’ve been carrying things that no longer belong to you. Awareness can feel uncomfortable before it feels freeing. Let that discomfort guide you, not shame you. #life #love #laugh #start #today #fyp #healing #motivation #daily #reminder #grind #news #newsbreak #workout

Getting Billed for Messaging Your Doctor?!

Remember when messaging your doctor online was free? Not anymore. Hospitals are now charging admin fees for patient portal messages that need a doctor’s clinical time—think new symptoms or med changes. Even a quick “Is this normal?” could cost you $50. Some practices are even locking features unless you pay an annual fee. Pro tip: stick to scheduling and refills online, and save your medical questions for in-person visits unless you want a surprise bill. Anyone else get charged for a simple email?
