What a beautiful day at the Sound Transit 2 Line Crosslake Link Opening ribbon-cutting last Saturday. 🚆💙

Kaiser Permanente was honored to sponsor and celebrate the opening of the Sound Transit Crosslake Link -- a historic moment that brings new train connections to Bellevue, Redmond, and SeaTac, including the world's first train to operate on a floating bridge.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by to say hi and grab giveaways, including LED wristbands, sunglasses, ouch pouches, and zippered totes. We loved being part of the celebration with so many community partners and neighbors.

Congratulations to Sound Transit and everyone who made this possible.

Most adults are mildly dehydrated -- just enough that every one of these systems is working harder than it needs to.

How much do you need? 91 ounces a day for women, 125 for men. Food gets you about 20 percent of the way there.

A simple check to know if you're drinking enough: if your urine is colorless or light yellow, you are doing well.

One more glass today is a good place to start.

Swipe through 6 things happening in your teen's brain right now. Understanding the biology behind the door slamming, the K-pop, and the sleeping until noon does not make parenting easier, but it does make it make more sense.

Save this. Share it with a parent who needs to hear that they are doing okay.

Your digestive system contains trillions of microorganisms that help keep your body functioning.

Probiotics are beneficial bacteria that may help support that balance, especially after antibiotics or during digestive issues.

You can find probiotics in fermented foods like yogurt, kimchi, and sauerkraut — and in some supplements.

If you're thinking about taking a probiotic supplement, it's always a good idea to talk with your care team first.
