Healthier skin, better sleep and less bloating and fatigue. Check! When it comes to improving health, probiotics check all the boxes. Why? “Microbes in the lower intestinal tract help with digestion and immune system regulation. A disruption in bacteria levels can lead to gut inflammation and other problems. So, when the body experiences an imbalance, bloating, diarrhea and other health problems can follow,” said Dr. Elizabeth Raskin, colorectal surgeon and surgical director for the Margolis Family Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) Program within the Digestive Health Institute at Hoag. If you’re considering adding probiotics to your diet, we share some things to consider in our latest blog post at the link below. #EmpoweredbyHoag

You wouldn’t hike barefoot (we hope). So why would you bike, skate, play football or ride a horse without a helmet? The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that about 1.5 million Americans survive a traumatic brain injury every year, and 176 people a day die from TBI. “There is no such thing as a concussion-proof helmet, but helmets protect people from serious head and brain injury,” said Andrew Ly, M.D., neurologist and advisor for Hoag’s Concussion and Mild Traumatic Brain Injury Program, part of the Pickup Family Neurosciences Institute. “Helmets are like seat beats for your brain, they protect you from greater injury and can be lifesaving.” To select the helmet that is right for you, Dr. Ly recommends people get acquainted with the CDC’s S.A.F.E. checklist.
