Beth Burton+FollowTelehealth Just Got a Major Medicare MakeoverMedicare’s about to shake up telehealth! CMS wants to make it way easier for doctors to get new telehealth services approved—no more complicated hoops to jump through.

Some new services are getting added (think group therapy and obesity counseling), but others didn’t make the cut. If you care about telehealth, now’s the time to speak up before the rules are set! #Health #BodyHealth #Medicare42Share
Jared Hardy+FollowBabies Missing Key Gut Bacteria?Turns out, a lot of US babies are missing Bifidobacterium—the gut bacteria that helps digest breast milk and trains the immune system. In a big study, 1 in 4 babies had none, and most had super low levels. The catch? Babies with less of this bacteria were 3x more likely to get allergies, eczema, or asthma by age 2. C-sections, formula, and antibiotics all play a role. Early gut health really sets the stage for future wellness! #Health #BodyHealth #GutHealth30Share

But the hope is real, and diabetes management is way easier than it used to be! #Health #BodyHealth #Type1Diabetes20Share
