Did you know that an early Parkinson’s Disease diagnosis and treatment can help patients not just survive, but thrive? ✨

About 1 million people in the U.S. are living with Parkinson’s disease today. That number is expected to grow to 1.2 million by 2030.

A Parkinson’s diagnosis can feel overwhelming, and many patients tell us they feel discouraged in those early days. However, there’s hope. With the right care team and the right treatment plan, people with Parkinson’s can go on to live decades of high‑quality life. 🧠

This is not a disease that will stop you in your tracks. It’s something we manage, just like we manage other chronic conditions such as heart disease.

If you have any questions or concerns about Parkinson’s, contact your primary care physician. They can then refer you out to a neurologist for further assessment as applicable.

Our patient Jonathan gave us his honest, in‑the‑moment reactions to trying the FIT test for the first time.

Colore**al cancer is one of the deadliest cancers, but is often highly treatable when it’s caught early. Early screening can save lives. 💙

The at‑home FIT test checks for hidden blood (or altered DNA) in a stool sample. It’s simple, noninvasive, and requires no prep or dietary changes.

✏️ Fill out the label�
🧪 Collect your sample�
📬 Mail it back within 24 hours�
📱 Get results in your Intermountain Health patient portal

If your test comes back positive, make sure to schedule a follow‑up colonoscopy for a complete screening.

What you eat today can help protect your health tomorrow.

In our latest video, Ashley Magistrelli, a registered dietitian with Intermountain Health, breaks down the foods to limit — and the foods to lean into — to help reduce your risk of colon cancer.

Ashley explains how simple, sustainable nutrition choices can make a meaningful difference, including:

🚫 Foods to avoid or limit:

• Processed meats
• Excess red meat
• Highly processed foods
• Foods high in added sugars
🌱 Foods that support a healthier colon:
• Fiber‑rich fruits and vegetables
• Whole grains
• Beans and legumes
• Lean proteins
• Healthy fats

A balanced, plant‑forward diet doesn’t just support digestion— it can play a key role in lowering colon cancer risk and improving overall well‑being.

🎥 Watch Ashley’s full breakdown in the video to learn how small changes can add up to long‑term protection.

“One moment he was saving lives. The next, his own life was on the line.”

During a routine surgery, McKay-Dee Hospital’s Chief Surgeon, Dr. Todd Grunander, started feeling off. Hours later, after a series of tests, he heard words no one expects—an aggressive form of colon cancer that needed immediate surgery.

Today, Dr. Grunander is sharing his story with courage and hope, reminding us why preventive care and listening to your body truly matter.

💙 His message: Don’t wait. Get screened. Take symptoms seriously. Life can change in a single day.

March is National Kidney Health Month, and Dr. Taylor Moody, a nephrologist at Intermountain Health, is sharing what you need to know to protect these small but mighty organs.

Your kidneys quietly filter waste, balance electrolytes, help make red blood cells, and even support bone health. But kidney disease often develops silently, which is why early detection matters.

Two simple tests — a blood test and a urine test — can help determine your Kidney Risk Score. Talk with your primary care provider about when you should be checked.

You may be at higher risk if you have:

• High blood pressure

• Diabetes

• Heart disease

• Obesity

• Autoimmune disease

• Anatomical or genetic kidney conditions

• A history of smoking

Healthy habits to support your kidneys:

• Stay hydrated (aim for clear to light-yellow urine)

• Manage blood pressure and blood sugar

• Eat more plants and fewer red meats

• Move your body — even a daily walk helps

• Maintain a healthy weight

• Get 7–8 hours of sleep

• See your primary care provider regularly

People with chronic kidney disease may also benefit from meeting with a registered dietitian, in person or via telehealth.

And remember limiting sodium, avoiding NSAIDs like ibuprofen and naproxen, and keeping conditions like diabetes and high blood pressure under control can make a big difference.

Your kidneys work hard for you — take time this month to return the favor.

Big numbers and a big crunch! 🥬
Our cafes and bistros go through 186,029 pounds of Romaine and 41,145 pounds of mixed greens every year.

Lettuce is full of fiber and micronutrients, natural nitrates, and other antioxidants that support heart health and can help lower blood pressure when eaten regularly.

We partner with a cooperative that holds higher standards for how crops are grown, handled, and prepared. Every batch of greens is triple‑washed, then bagged and delivered fresh to our facilities so caregivers, patients, and visitors get produce at a high quality.

Taking a break from your phone doesn’t mean you’ll disconnect from life. Instead, it provides an opportunity to reconnect with it.

Phone or scroll breaks (even for a few minutes) help you make choices about how you want to spend your time. Try going phone‑free for a couple of hours, leaving it in another room, or even taking a full “social media holiday” for a day, weekend, or longer.📱

If you choose to go phone free for a few hours, leave the phone in a part of your house that you won’t spend too much time in.

Reassess and see how it makes you feel afterwards. 😊

03/26/2026

Colon cancer is one of the most preventable and treatable cancers — especially when it’s caught early. March is National Colon Cancer Awareness Month, and updated guidelines now recommend starting routine screenings at age 45.

Knowing the signs matters: changes in bowel habits, re**al bleeding, abdominal pain, unexplained weight loss, anemia, or fatigue should be discussed with your doctor. Many factors can increase your risk, including age, family history,
inflammatory bowel disease, lifestyle habits, and lower screening rates in some communities.

A colonoscopy remains the most effective screening tool, but at‑home FIT kits can also support regular monitoring for those at lower risk. If a FIT test comes back positive, a follow‑up colonoscopy is essential.

If you’re 45 or older — or have a family history of colore**al cancer — talk with your doctor about the right screening plan for you.

Early detection saves lives.

❤️ Wear Red for Heart Health Month! ❤️

We joined millions of people last Friday - across the country - in wearing red to raise awareness for heart disease—the leading cause of death for both women and men.

Wearing red is a simple act, but it carries a powerful message: heart health matters, and awareness can save lives. Let’s continue to support education, early detection, and healthier choices for ourselves and our loved ones.

💓 Take care of your heart.
💓 Encourage someone you love to know their numbers.
