“Treating You Like Family.”

Fish is a healthy source of protein, which tends to make you feel fuller than carbohydrates. Plus, the omega-3 fatty acids in a lot of seafood -- especially fatty fish like salmon -- are particularly good at satisfying hunger. https://wb.md/4avYznQ

Alabama winters can be sneaky harsh on your skin! 🧴 Cold air outside plus heated air inside equals dry, itchy, unhappy skin. Switch to a heavier moisturizer, use a humidifier at home, and don't take super hot showers (we know, it feels amazing but it strips your skin!). Gentle cleansers and SPF are still important—yes, even in winter! We can help with persistent skin issues that over-the-counter products can't handle. What's your winter skin survival trick?

For many, the winter ushers in the holiday season, but it is also the season when our skin begins to dry-out, crack and even bleed! Here are some tips to avoid that!
