By Dr Frank Yap, MD -
Image
While GLP-1 drugs can provide powerful results, they are not a magic bullet for everyone. Without the right support and patient commitment, weight regain and side effects are common. Many problems can be avoided when you know ahead of time whether you are a good candidate for GLP-1 RAs, effective dosing, what to expect, and how to support your body while you are taking the drug. Experts say a personalized approach that blends integrative care with the popular medication is the smartest path forward. Credit: GoodRx Health Dr. Tyna Moore, a naturopathic physician and expert in GLP-1 RAs, told The Epoch Times that she has had patients who eat like birds but still gain weight. “We have data to support that for fatty liver and Type 2 diabetes, those folks have less GLP-1 production. That tells me some folks might be set up—whether it’s genetic or from a life of eating poorly—to not release GLP-1 adequately,” she said. “Something’s gone wrong there, and that’s where I see potential utility ...

It’s natural to have complex feelings about noticing signs of aging. You can embrace the beauty and privilege that it is to age, while also not love all of the physical changes that come along with it.  If you’d like to soften these signs but don’t want to go the injectables route, there are non-invasive products that can help.

How Much Do Knee Gel Injections Cost? (2024)

By Dr Frank Yap, MD -
Image
Knee pain injections are one of the best ways to target pain without long-term narcotics or unnecessary surgeries. It is no secret that the United States is currently facing an opioid epidemic. Recent medical research is now beginning to highlight the damage caused to our bodies by relying heavily on pain medication. In addition, knee replacement surgery and other invasive procedures carry risks such as blood clots, infection, and long rehabilitation periods. In the United States, knee pain injections cost approximately $1500. To receive the full benefit from these injections, 2-3 injections may be required. However, this is dependent on the type of knee pain. Osteoarthritis of the knee is a very common musculoskeletal disease affecting over 10 percent of the adult population and is a leading cause of disability within the United States. It’s estimated that more than 60 per cent of the worldwide population aged 65 and above has some form of the disease. ...
