Are you trying to get more fiber in your diet? Then grab a banana because it packs in about 3 grams of dietary fiber. If you add a tablespoon of crunchy peanut butter, that could add up to 2.5 grams more .

🌎 World Humanitarian Day ❤️

Today, let’s take a moment to honor the healthcare workers, volunteers and organizations who provide care, comfort and hope when people need it most. ❤️ The care given is not forgotten. Even some of the smallest acts of kindness go a long way.

Healthcare is about more than treating illness — it also includes the small actions we take. This may show up in the form of a smile, a kind gesture, like offering a warm blanket, or taking time to listen to someone who needs you.

To everyone working to make healthcare more accessible and compassionate: thank you. 🩺🤝

A question we hear often: Is it normal to have chronic gas and ?

Turns out that gas and bloating are considered normal - when the frequency is occasional. But if these symptoms happen frequently and it interrupts normal daily life—or there’s abdominal pain, that’s when you may want to talk to your doctor.

Try to pinpoint how many times a day you experience bothersome symptoms. Also try to gauge if it’s ongoing over time and for how long you have noticed the symptoms. This information will help your medical provider evaluate you.
Call us at 303-604-5000 to set up an evaluation.
