Most people don’t feel different when their blood pressure is high…
but over time, it can quietly lead to heart failure.

Here’s how:

Your left ventricle (the main pumping chamber of your heart) works hard to push blood out to your body. When blood pressure in your vessels is elevated, that pump has to work even harder.

Over time, the muscle thickens → becomes stiff → and less efficient at moving blood. This process is called left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) — and it’s a major risk factor for heart failure.

It doesn’t happen overnight.
But it does happen silently.

When is the last time you checked your blood pressure? 💛

This is where diabetes management gets more advanced.

No carbs were eaten — just protein.
Blood sugar still went up.

Why?

The body can convert protein into glucose (called gluconeogenesis) for energy.
It isn't as simple as “count the carbs" or "watch your sugars."
Sometimes… you still need a bolus for the unexpected.

Diabetes management is nuanced — and your plan should be too.

I love taking care of people with diabetes, so much that the design of Papaya was centered around someone with this condition. Here's my "why" behind opening a direct primary care clinic. ❤︎ Katlyn Agosta, FNP-C, CDCES

It might be weird of I didn't like papaya. My kids and husband refuse to eat any (it's a texture thing). This fruit is super good for you, packed with vitamins, fiber, and antioxidants to support health. This and the color (bright, bold, and fun) are part of why I named my clinic Papaya ❤️

and she’s not alone anymore.

Meet Marcus (yep, he moved into Sarah’s old pot 😂)
Apparently things are moving quickly… they had a baby 🌿

Can you get sunburn through a t-shirt? ☀️

Short answer: yes… sometimes.

A basic white cotton t-shirt blocks about 80–85% of UV rays — which sounds good, but it’s not full protection.

And if it gets wet?
The fabric stretches → tiny gaps open up → more UV gets through.

A few simple ways to protect your skin:
• Choose darker colors to absorb more UV rays
• Look for tighter weaves and UPF-rated clothing
• Don’t skip sunscreen! Remember to re-apply

If it’s been a while since your last bloodwork… there’s usually a reason.

Busy schedule.
Cost.
Or maybe… not wanting to know.

I get it.

Bloodwork isn’t a grade — it’s information.

Your labs tell a story about what’s going on in your body right now.
It gives us a chance to respond with a plan that actually supports you and fits your life.

No judgement. No pressure. No lectures.
Just real support from a provider who cares 💛
