Staying Healthy While Enjoying Holiday Festivities

And of course, there is an abundance of fatty, high-carb, and sugary foods that you can’t seem to get away from. Here are some suggestions to help with cravings, temptations, and the aftermath of overindulgence.

Psoriasis is a skin disease that presents as red, itchy scaly patches on the knees, elbows, trunk, and scalp, among other places. Psoriasis is a chronic (long-term) condition that is common but has no cure. Its symptoms go through cycles, with flare-ups lasting a few weeks or months, then resolving or going into remission.

Also, there may be medications for other conditions that are no longer an option to take because of the breast cancer diagnosis. When a breast cancer survivor experiences menopause, these changes may require help to navigate.
Did you know about 80% of women diagnosed with breast cancer each year are ages 45 or older?
Jennifer, a family care doctor in Mt. Pleasant, South Carolina, struggled with menopause discomfort for 15 years. She slept poorly, felt lethargic, complained of brain fog and low libido and, said bluntly, “My mood wasn’t that great.”
Nothing — from traditional hormone replacement tablets to hormone therapy injections — seemed to alleviate the symptoms. Finally, under the guidance of her personal physician, she found relief, thanks to a local compounding pharmacy able to produce a customized hormone dosage form to meet her needs.
“This therapy has so improved the quality of my daily life and work, I cannot imagine life without it,” said Jennifer, now 59.
Physicians began prescribing hormone replacement therapy in the 1960s. The therapies have changed and evolved over the last 60+ years, but the
