Say Goodbye to Inflammation and Pain

This powerful Antarctic Krill Oil supplement from NativePath is formulated to address common (and oftentimes dangerous) health issues.

Plus, there’s no nasty side effects like the ones you’ll find on the back of the ibuprofen bottle… Like heart disease, blood clots, strokes, and kidney failure…

They believe that eating, moving, and living in harmony with the natural state is key to achieving optimal wellness. They offer truly native products—or as close to nature as humanly possible, to help people look and feel their best.

🌿 Health Hack of the Week: Tongue Scraping 👅

Often overlooked, tongue-scraping offers a host of health benefits that you don’t want to miss out on.

Beyond immediate benefits like fresher breath and improved taste perception…

With around 700 bacteria/fungi types in the mouth, tongue scraping helps maintain a good oral microbial balance.

Tongue scrapers can be plastic or metal, although dedicated scraper tools are recommended for optimal bacterial removal.🦠

The benefits of tongue scraping include:

• Fresher breath

• A cleaner mouth

• Enhanced taste

• Reduced plaque

• Better tongue appearance

• Lower bacteria levels. 

Additionally?

Good oral health can also support cardiovascular function!

Yeah, this study showed that regular tongue cleaning can help improve resting systolic blood pressure.

The Future of Medicine: AI-Enabled Healthcare

This week, we’re taking a look at the exploding field of AI-enabled healthcare.

The developments in this space are some of the most exciting AI applications out there right now, and the growth of this space doesn’t appear to be slowing down.

Let’s dive into the latest updates in this sector!

You Are What You Eat

The medical weight loss program Found has unwrapped its AI-driven feature, the Found Assistant.

This assistant exploits generative AI to provide diet and exercise guidance tailored to individual needs, accessible anytime, anywhere.

Additionally, Ahara, a vanguard in precision nutrition, recently debuted its free AI-driven personalized nutrition plan.

Their "food-first" framework aims to democratize health, erasing financial barriers between users and nutrition-driven lifestyle changes.

The ‘Internet’ of Health Records

Imagine a healthcare system where patient data spans disparate sources, yet is a few clicks away.

This dream is nearing reality, thanks to Google Cloud launching an AI-empowered search tool.

Aggregating data from medical records into a single, unified source, this tool has already been piloted with renowned healthcare orgs like Mayo Clinic and Highmark Health.

Riding on the same wave, Microsoft also unveiled a host of data and AI solutions that promise to improve patient and clinician experiences.

AI and Heart Health

In the diagnostics spotlight, three AI models shine bright, signaling a transformative era in combating cardiovascular disease.

These trailblazers decode ECG data, presenting a huge edge over traditional diagnostic tools, and empowering clinicians with enhanced decision-making powers.

Healthier Hospitals, Healthier Patients

Finally, recent AI advancements are improving the capabilities of mental health detection.

A recent study by New York University's Grossman School of Medicine accentuates AI's potential in detecting signs of distress among medical staff.

With ongoing enhancements expected to increase accuracy, this could be a turning point in mental health screening for healthcare professionals.

Conclusion

The combined field of healthcare and AI is going through rapid innovations right now.

From crafting tailored health strategies, to enhancing clinical workflows and early distress detection, AI's transformative potential within healthcare has only just scratched the surface.
