I attended the lifestyle medicine conference in Birmingham on Monday...loads of health care professionals and everyday folk there... A very inspiring day.  😀 Main focus: you can resolve most chronic health conditions if you put better fuel in your body. ✅ Can you solve a biological problem (eg fatty liver, obesity, type 2 diabetes), with a chemical solution (drugs)?? 💊 Probably not... But you can by changing your biology, by eating better and adjusting some simple things in your lifestyle.  🥦 🥩 Mental health can be improved with food. ✅ Chronic diseases can be resolved, prevented, avoided with better foods and habits. ✅ Great to be around solution-focussed people for the day 😀 https://lnkd.in/gYhFpS79

Transplant recipients are faced with the usual human challenges of everyday life, but also have additional considerations given the unique impact that immunosuppressant medications have on the body. These medications are essential post-transplant but can cause severe side effects, increasing the risk of obesity, diabetes, osteoporosis, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and muscle function decline. Quality of life is a significant concern, with many recipients facing physical and mental challenges like guilt, depression, and anxiety. Studies show that increased physical activity improves both physical and mental health. Refit for Life! is a free online program aimed to help transplant recipients take the first steps to get active and to support the transplant community in their ongoing rehabilitation, fitness and wellness journey.

Title: Navigating PCOS together: Empowering Health Management Tips Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) presents unique challenges for women, impacting hormonal balance and manifesting in symptoms like irregular periods, weight gain, and fertility issues. When a close friend shared her PCOS diagnosis, I embarked on a mission to understand the condition and gather practical health tips to support her journey. Understanding PCOS: PCOS involves irregular menstrual cycles, ovarian cysts, and hormonal imbalances. Symptoms vary, requiring personalized management plans. Health Tips for PCOS Management: 1. Consultation with Specialists: Encourage regular visits to gynecologists, endocrinologists, and nutritionists for tailored treatment plans and symptom management. 2. Balanced Diet: Suggest a diet rich in whole grains, lean proteins, fruits, vegetables, and healthy fats to stabilize blood sugar levels and manage weight. 3. Regular Exercise: Recommend activities like brisk walking, yoga, or strength training for at least 150 minutes per week to promote weight management and reduce insulin resistance. 4. Stress Reduction: Encourage meditation, deep breathing, journaling, or hobbies to alleviate emotional stress associated with PCOS. 5. Medication Adherence: Stress the importance of following prescribed medications, such as hormonal contraceptives or insulin-sensitizing drugs, as directed by healthcare providers. 6. Seek Emotional Support: Support seeking help from trusted individuals, support groups, or mental health professionals to share experiences and gain solidarity. Empowerment through Education and Advocacy: Empower your friend with knowledge about PCOS and encourage participation in treatment decisions, awareness-raising, and advocacy efforts to improve resources and support for those affected. Navigating PCOS is challenging but manageable with informed support and practical strategies. Let’s empower each other and build a community that celebrates resilience in the face of health challenges. Docxplorer #PCOSAwareness #DoXplorer #DocXplorer10dayschallenge
