We’ve Got Your Number – 10 Benefits of Using Bioidentical Hormones

Top 10 Vaccine-Preventable Diseases

  1. Measles: Measles can cause pneumonia, brain swelling, and death. Before the vaccine, 3 million to 4 million people in the U.S. got measles each year, 48,000 were hospitalized, and 400-500 died.
  2. Whooping Cough (Pertussis): It can be life-threatening, especially in babies less than 1 year old. Whooping cough can lead to pneumonia, seizures, and slowed or stopped breathing.
  3. Flu: Up to 49,000 Americans die from the flu each year. The flu can worsen asthma and diabetes.
  4. Polio: Most people get no symptoms or flu-like symptoms that last a few days, but polio can cause brain infection, paralysis, and death. It was one of the most feared and devastating diseases of the 20th century. Polio cases are down sharply thanks to vaccination, but the disease is not gone from the world.
  5. Pneumococcal Disease: Complications can be serious and fatal. As pneumonia, it’s especially deadly in people older than 65. If it causes meningitis or infects the blood, these can be life-threatening.
  6. Tetanus: 10% to 20% of tetanus cases are fatal. Deaths are more common in people who are older than 60 or who have diabetes.
  7. Meningococcal Disease: Between 1,000-1,200 people in the U.S. get meningococcal disease each year. Even with antibiotics, as many as 15% die.
  8. Hepatitis B: It can lead to liver cancer and other long-lasting liver diseases, which can be deadly.
  9. Mumps: It can cause long-lasting health problems, including meningitis and deafness. Mumps is now rare in the U.S., thanks to the MMR (measles-mumps-rubella) vaccine. But outbreaks still happen, usually among people spending time close together, like living in a dorm.
  10. Hib (Haemophilus Influenzae Type B):Before the Hib vaccine, about 20,000 U.S. children younger than 5 got Hib each year. About 3% to 6% of them died.

Without available vaccines, the fatalities can really tally up.

5 Diabetic- Friendly Cocktails

  1. Beer:  light, low carb, but never “craft”
  2. Wine; some research says wine (red or white) may help your body use insulin better and may even make you less likely to get type 2 diabetes in the first place
  3. Liquor: One ounce of liquor, depending on the proof, has about the same amount of alcohol as 5 ounces of wine
  4. Bloody Mary: It won’t be such a diabetes diet disaster if you take out the alcohol to make it “virgin.”. Want a taste of vodka?  Add a celery spear, and use low-sodium tomato juice
  5. Sangria: Ole is ok if it’s not pre-made and you cut out using any mixers with sugar

Other things to take into account: Wear ID that says you have diabetes, be careful if you take insulin, don’t drink on an empty stomach, stay hydrated, don’t use drinks as meals, don’t forget to test. Those numbers really count.
