Cranberries: Beyond Thanksgiving

Dr NP, Healthy Eating, Healthy Life, Lifestyle, Lifestyle Medicine, Uncategorized

November may be the only month you buy a bag of cranberries, but these tangy fruits pack a powerful nutritional punch. These tiny berries are grown on vines in large, sandy bogs. The average American can consume over 2 pounds of cranberries; however, this is mostly through juice, as 95% of cranberries are processed into juice and other drinks. Less than 5 percent of purchased cranberries are in the fresh form. As you will see, the processed version does not offer the same benefits. Cranberries are tart and can be challenging to eat without being sweetened with sugar or honey. They are acidic and share a pH like lemons, explaining why sugar is often added to recipes with cranberries. In fact, the sugar-ladened canned cranberry gelatin, first...

[caption id="attachment_8575" align="alignleft" width="300"] Nancy Palermo Lietz, MD[/caption] We are not politically minded, and this is NOT a political article but rather a mindful reminder of how we can allow external forces to impact our health. The recent political election has caused a feeling of dissent no matter which side you choose. This has malignantly permeated our lives in negative ways. Fractured relationships hindered work ethics, and hopelessness, fear, and anger abound. We need to be mindful of how we allow this situation to impact our health.  Unfortunately, many of us go through our days focusing on dissatisfaction within our lives rather than accepting and appreciating what we have accomplished or what is present in our lives right now. This perspective is gratitude- an emotion that allows...

[caption id="attachment_12211" align="alignleft" width="192"] Nancy Palermo, MD[/caption] Written By: Nancy Palermo, MD Edited by: Thrive Carolinas Osteoporosis affects an estimated 10.2 million American adults aged 50 and older, of which more than 80% are women. Another 44 million are at risk for osteoporosis due to loss of bone density (osteopenia). Osteoporosis, characterized by low bone mineral density (BMD), poses significant health risks, leading to fractures, reduced mobility, and a diminished quality of life. In a study based on almost 380,000 osteoporotic fractures in females, 10% had another fracture within one year, 18% within two years, and 31% within five years. More concerning is the mortality rate after a hip fracture can be as high as 36% within a year of the break.  The physical and economic burden of osteoporosis is underrated....
