Not all protein powders are created equal! 💪

When it comes to choosing the right protein powder, quality matters. Look for options with minimal ingredients, no artificial sweeteners or colors, and a complete protein source like whey isolate or a well-balanced plant blend.

And don’t forget, third-party testing is key! It helps ensure purity and guarantees you’re fueling your body with clean, high-quality protein you can trust.

Sentara Health has launched a robotic-assisted bronchoscopy program at Sentara Leigh Hospital, bringing advanced, minimally invasive technology to improve the early detection of lung cancer and other pulmonary conditions. 🏥🤖

Using 3D CT imaging and real-time robotic guidance, physicians can precisely navigate the lungs to biopsy small or hard-to-reach nodules — helping patients receive faster, more accurate diagnoses. 🫁✨ Most procedures take about an hour, require no incisions, and allow patients to return home the same day.

“This technology allows us to reach areas of the lung that were previously very difficult to access,” said Dr. Simanta Dutta, Sentara pulmonologist and program lead. “Earlier and more precise diagnoses mean patients can begin treatment sooner.”

This new program strengthens Sentara’s regional lung diagnostics network and reflects our continued commitment to advancing cancer detection and care for the communities we serve. 💙

Want to save money on groceries without clipping coupons? What if you could make the food you already bought last way longer?

Registered Dietitian Shaye Arluk says food spoilage isn’t about poor quality—it’s about oxygen, moisture, ethylene gas, and temperature. When you control those four things, you can extend the life of your food by 30–50% 🙌

🥬 Game-changing tips to keep food fresh longer:
✔️ Store herbs properly and they can last almost two extra weeks
✔️ Wrap the tops of bananas to slow browning by five more days
✔️ Store ripe avocados submerged in water in the fridge for up to 10 extra days
✔️ Keep grains and beans in airtight containers, they can last 3–5 years
✔️ Place dairy, fruits, leafy greens, and herbs toward the back of the fridge (not the door!)
✔️ Use your freezer! Frozen fruits and veggies last 6 months to a year and often have higher nutrient density

🧊 Bonus tip: Every time you open the fridge, light and heat rush in—so food stored in the door spoils faster.

Shaye Arluk, a cancer survivor who focuses on how food fuels the body, hosts:
• In-person talks: Third Tuesday of each month, 10–11 a.m.
• Virtual sessions: 6–7 p.m.
