As we age, maintaining healthy joints and muscles becomes the key to mobility. Mobility helps us maintain independence by preventing falls and ensuring that you can continue to enjoy your favorite activities!

To help you get there, I recommend Curcumin-SF by Bioté Nutraceutical. It’s important to know that all curcumins are not created equal. Although used for centuries as an ingredient in Asia, most forms are poorly absorbed in the bloodstream, but Biote's Curcumin-SF has been formulated for superior bioavailability and absorption.

To get started taking Curcumin-SF, scan the QR code found in the comment section!

June is Men’s Health Awareness Month and let’s be honest guys, there are some concerns.

• 50.5% of men 18 or older have hypertension
• 41.6% of men 20 or older are obese
• The average life expectancy (76.2) for men is almost 5 year less than women

Here are 6 additional reasons that men experience poor health.

1) Generally, men do not like to talk about their health or how they are feeling

2) Often, men participate in activities that threaten their health

3) Sometimes, there is simply a lack of understanding when it comes to men’s health

4) There are some social stigmas surrounding men asking for help

5) Men tend to put off getting help when they don’t feel well

6) Men are 24% less likely than women to visit a doctor annually

If you’re ready for a new primary care provider who offers more than a quick, in-and-out checkup, contact Dr. Jason Heavens’ Tempe office at 623-444-2734.

Q: Why do I keep getting ingrown hairs?

A: Ingrown hairs generally happen after shaving, tweezing, or waxing. They can also be caused by wearing tight clothing.

You’re more likely to get ingrown hairs if you have coarse and/or curly hair. If an ingrown hair becomes infected, you may need antibiotics.
You might be able to prevent ingrown hairs by:
• Washing and exfoliating with warm water before hair removal
• Not shaving too close to your skin
• Shaving in the direction that your hair grow
• Shaving in the direction your hair grows
• Using a moisturizer after shaving
