If you partied in the ’90s, here’s your evidence-based preventive care reminder:

✔️ Blood pressure, cholesterol & diabetes screening
✔️ Colon cancer screening (starts at 45)
✔️ Breast / cervical / prostate screening (based on risk)
✔️ Bone & muscle health
✔️ Nutrition, movement, sleep & alcohol check-ins
✔️ Mental health & burnout screening
✔️ Vaccines — yes, shingles starts at 50

Preventive care isn’t about aging —
it’s about protecting your healthspan.

My little guy taught himself every single move on that yoyo… and yesterday he stood on stage in front of world champions with nothing but courage, passion, and heart.
He went for it. He loved it. He shined.
I’m so, so proud of him. 🥹🪀✨
Do what you love, no matter who’s watching.

Today we celebrate National Direct Primary Care Day — a movement redefining the physician-patient relationship. ✨

Direct Primary Care (DPC) is an innovative model where healthcare returns to its roots — simple, transparent, and personal. Instead of rushing through insurance barriers, patients partner directly with their physician through a membership that includes comprehensive primary care, extended visits, direct access, and clarity in cost.

It’s healthcare the way it was meant to be — accessible, unrushed, and centered on you. 💙

5 key points on why cardiovascular health is essential for healthspan (living not just longer, but healthier):
1. Reduces Chronic Disease Risk – Protects against heart attack, stroke, diabetes, and hypertension.
2. Supports Brain Function – Good circulation keeps memory, focus, and cognition sharp as you age.
3. Boosts Longevity – A healthy heart is directly linked to living more years in good health.
4. Improves Daily Energy – Efficient oxygen delivery means more stamina for work, exercise, and life.
5. Enhances Quality of Life – Lowers risk of disability, keeps you mobile, and preserves independence.

1. 🧠 Strong mind, longer life – Good mental health is linked to lower risk of chronic diseases like heart disease and dementia.

3. ❤️ Mood matters for the heart – Depression and anxiety increase the risk of high blood pressure, heart attack, and stroke.
4. 🤝 Connection is medicine – Social isolation is as harmful as smoking 15 ci******es a day.
5. 🌿 Mind-body synergy – Mindfulness, therapy, and stress reduction improve sleep, immunity, and overall longevity.

What is healthspan?
Healthspan is the number of years you live in good health — when you can move easily, think clearly, feel strong, and enjoy life without major disease or disability. ☀️How Big Is the Gap Between Lifespan and Healthspan?
🎂According to WHO-based data, U.S. men typically live in good health until age 63, and women until about 65 .
🌡️That means Americans spend, on average, 15–16 years at the end of life dealing with chronic illness, disability, or disease. (In the U.S., average life expectancy (2023) is approximately 78.4 years: about 75.8 years for men and 81.1 years for women )
📚Research published in JAMA reveals that the U.S. has one of the largest lifespan–healthspan gaps in the world—about 12.4 years on average
