Geneveve, Lifestyle Medicine

Our primary goal at Thrive is to optimize our patients' health and well-being and foster vitality in mind, body, and spirit at every age. We encourage nutrient-rich diets, regular exercise, and a dedicated focus on self-care. However, one topic not as openly discussed is that of sexual health. Over the years, childbirth, menopause, aging, and gravity can take a toll on women's vaginal tissues. The muscles, ligaments, and fascia within the vaginal canal become weaker and, as a result, can impact bladder function and sexual intimacy. Fortunately, there is an increasing number of non-invasive options to address these issues. The physicians at Thrive have been offering Viveve non-invasive vaginal rejuvenation treatment over the past few years to improve women's lives (and the lives of their...

Nutty green rice is both delicious AND filling. Pair this detox approved dish with a detox approved vegetable (such as broccoli, kale, carrots, cauliflower, or cabbage salad) and you will have a well-balanced meal with carbs from the rice, protein from the almonds, fat from the olive oil, and micronutrients from the vegetables.

https://vimeo.com/504140735   Dr. Scott Greenapple The primary long haul or lingering effects from COVID 19 are loss of sense of smell and taste. From the research, approximately 85% of COVID -19 patients will experience some subjective disturbance in their sense of smell. The median return of smell is about eight days. It is estimated that 25% of patients lose their sense of smell up to 60 days, and 15% experience loss of smell more than 60 days. An interesting retro study showed that patients who maintained their sense of smell and taste had more severe symptoms of the disease and were more likely to go to the hospital and even be put on ventilators. The ones who lost their sense of smell and taste had milder cases. A recent controlled clinical...
