We recently interviewed Dr. Minh Tran of Virginia Physicians Inc about his experience prescribing exercise and referring his patients to our p.r.e.p. program. Here are some highlights: "As health care providers, we have an obligation to ensure our patients are achieving optimal health. Referring our patients to healthy lifestyle programs, such as p.r.e.p., will greatly enhance their quality of life." "I prescribe exercise, just as I prescribe medication, and acac is the pharmacy to get that prescription filled." "You could argue every single individual would benefit from this type of program. Generally, individuals that are not currently engaging in regular physical activity are prime candidates. I also refer patients that are in early disease states, such as pre-diabetes and pre-hypertension. Lastly, we know regular exercise can be an effective treatment option for the maintenance of certain chronic diseases. It's never too late to start!" "My patients that complete the program see an improvement in body composition. It is also rewarding to see positive changes in their blood work, which at times can lead to a reduction in dosage or elimination of a certain medication. My personal favorite is their reports of improved overall mood, sleep and energy levels." Thanks Dr. Tran for your support and believing in exercise as medicine. We look forward to continue helping your patients achieve optimal health.

Aromatically retraining brains | Deprescribing expert | Uniting Wisdom & Knowledge | Neurodiversity | Educator | DJ Veritas on KMRD 96.9 unadulterated
good morning & thank you for the chance to share this with you! and I ask you to pause and consider the following to see if you can 'see or hear' yourself in one of my client's words: This individual lives with an autoimmune disease that wasn't diagnosed until she had been taking a very potent medication for restless leg. After several years of being on this med, she started to develop other symptoms. The common thinking is to see this experience, even though unfortunate, simply a part of life, getting older, etc. Tests were conducted which concluded with autoimmune ... Yesterday, she informed me that she also has an overactive bladder in her mid-forties. First of all, in children this is called bedwetting, in adults it's known as OAB. I've worked with children that did not wet the bed yet couldn't control their bladder at certain points in the day ... Bedwettng / OAB is not age related. It's brain related ... meaning there is a neurochemistry to the condition. Restless leg also originates in the brain and medically linked to dopamine, although it does involve other brain chemicals including acetylcholine. Both, as do all brain chemicals, have dual purposes. Dopamine is the target of treatment for this client. The very same cell receptors being controlled by the medication also have roles with the immune system .... hmmmmm The connection is there to set her system up for inflammation and an autoimmune disorder. But her story doesn't stop there because like the last client I shared about, this person is done 'plugging holes' with one more remedy to ease a symptom. She's choosing to integrate essential oils to help her transition off her medication and assist her system with stabilizing itself. This morning she messaged me to say she's excited and nervous about no longer being on the medication. This is a common thought for many people and equally understandable. However, whenever you become sick of being plagued with symptom after symptom and want to 'see a different movie' play out for the time you have left in this world ... you are declaring an end to a spiritual crisis. I come from pharmacology so this isn't a dig. Yet, the current context with healthcare keeps you stuck in the development of problems even though very few want to admit to. Medications are SO specific in their influence on the body that they're essentially creating a division within the system. Quality health is interdependence, not independence and this is where oils come in when used while taking medications. I must state that this woman wants to come off her medication. This doesn't have to be the case for everyone. In her situation, restless leg is easily assisted with oils to the degree that it naturally resolves itself. And this is what I am talking about this afternoon at 4p eastern. How essential oils enhance the healthcare puzzle ... and when they don't! #innovationinhealthcare #functionalmedicine #integrativemedicine https://fb.me/e/7igKFYEoQ

We are learning more and more about biases in health care. Ladies, it's more than just speaking up. Providers, it's about more than listening. Diversity in clinical trials and better communication is a great start, but it's just a start #solutions #clinicaltrials #solvetheimpossible
