Joint health supplementation has come a long way since the glucosamine-chondroitin era. Consumers now expect faster onset, stronger clinical evidence, and delivery formats that fit modern lifestyles. But here’s the challenge for brands: the same ingredient that works brilliantly in capsules often fails completely in beverages. An extract optimized for five-day onset might not offer the multi-pathway support some consumers need. And a high-dose formula designed for older adults doesn’t necessarily translate to sports recovery applications. PLT Health offers four clinically-backed Boswellia extracts for joint health. AprèsFlex for capsules, Dynagenix for beverages, 5-LOXIN for high-AKBA formulas, and FLEXIR for multi-botanical…

Hepatitis C is a type of hepatitis, or inflammation of the liver, caused by the hepatitis C virus (HCV). When a person contracts hepatitis C, it can take 2 to 12 weeks from exposure until the onset of any symptoms, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

About three-quarters of people with HCV will develop complications , including a chronic HCV infection that can…
Traditional TV works best for live events, and for many people, that means sports. Most of the online services providing access to traditional TV, however, don’t allow you to only subscribe to sports. That’s going to change.Today YouTube TV announced new plans that are a little bit cheaper than the current cost of $82.99 per month. Among them is a $64.99-per-month Sports plan, which includes access to the big national sports channels including FS1, NBC Sports Network, and all of the ESPN channels, along with access to network television. Basically, if a game is broadcast nationally, this package should give…
Image credit: Adobe Express by Natalie Grinvalds, MPH, PhD, BS, CHES Introduction Despite significant investment in workplace wellbeing initiatives, many organizations continue to see rising burnout, disengagement, and stress-related absence. This points to a key gap in many strategies: limited attention to how employees respond emotionally to workplace stressors. Emotional regulation, the ability to manage and respond to emotional experiences in adaptive ways, plays a central role in determining whether work-related stress leads to sustainable performance or long-term harm. In the workplace, it shapes how employees cope with pressure, adapt to change, navigate relationships, and sustain wellbeing over time. This…

Still, if and when any study links a drug to a fetal anomaly—even if it’s tiny, from years ago, or questionably conducted—it can be tough to change people’s minds or get rid of the stigma it fuels. “It’s really hard to unring that bell even if studies come out later suggesting it’s not a real association or a significant association,” says Dr. Cassidy.Plus, as Dr. Cassidy told me, people have always been a bit nervous to take any type of medicine—or putting anything foreign in their bodies—when pregnant. There’s a solid chance that in recent months, that reluctance has only…

Most of the time, breakups are supposed to be clean-cut endings—no second thoughts, no leftover feelings, and generally, no contact. Yet a new, surprising statistic suggests that leaving the past behind may no longer be a priority these days.According to a survey from The Matchmaking Company, which surveyed more than 2,300 people across the US, 66 percent of respondents reported that they still talk to a few of their exes. And for Gen Z in particular, 28 percent say they’re in touch with “most or all” of them.“There are many reasons why people talk to their exes, especially right after…
