February 18, 2025

Adam’s Journal Here’s a question from an Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation coworker: Last month, the Food and Drug Administration approved Journavx, a new drug to treat pain.

Bodywork: Continuous glucose monitors for everyone?

February 11, 2025

Adam’s Journal  My wife recently read a book recommending that everyone wear a continuous glucose monitor to track their blood sugar levels.

Bodywork: Time to add a new vaccination to the list?

January 28, 2025

Adam’s Journal  It seems like I’ve recently started seeing lots of ads recommending the pneumococcal pneumonia vaccine for those who, like me, are over 50.

Bodywork: Ringing out the new year in health

Bodywork: Dealing with low iron levels

December 24, 2024

Adam’s Journal ‘Tis the season – for another question from an Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation coworker: The blood work following my recent annual exam showed low iron levels.
