June is here and it is officially Pride Month in the United States and many other countries around the globe! Pride Month honors the 1969 Stonewall Uprising, a monumental civil rights movement led by a transgender woman of color. Stonewall served as a catalyst, igniting a spark to fuel a new wave of LGBTQIA+ activism.

Pride Month is an opportunity to celebrate the joy, power, and achievements of the LGBTQIA+ community. It is a time to uplift LGBTQIA+ voices and reflect on the progress we have made in our fight for justice, inclusion, and equality. It also a time to recognize that this fight is not yet over. We must keep the spirit of Pride Month with us all year long as we push forward in the face of social and political adversity.

We hope your Pride Month is filled with love, fun, and, of course, pride!

March is National Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month. It reminds us that early detection is key to treating colorectal cancers. According to the American Cancer Society, more than a million people in the United States count themselves as survivors. While early detection and treatments make a difference, there is more that can be done. Knowing the causes and risk factors helps prevent colorectal cancer.

Risk Factors We Control
•Diet - Studies show that diets rich in red and processed meats may contribute to colorectal cancer risks. Also, how we prepare our proteins may increase our risk, too. Grilling, frying, and high-temperature cooking release chemicals that may contribute to colorectal cancer risks. Diets full of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains reduce our risk of colon cancer as well as other health risks.
•Exercise - Sedentary lifestyles and obesity are two more risk factors for colorectal cancer. Once again, physical activity helps to reduce our risk factors for another disease.
•Smoking and heavy alcohol use - Quit the one and limit the other. Ask your physician if you need help with either one.
•Family history - While you can't control this, you can know it. Report it to your primary care physician so if your family history shows an increased risk for you, she can decide if you need early screening. Knowledge is power.

Take action during Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month. Speak with your doctor about your risk factors and collect your family history. Visit www.cancer.org to learn more about risk factors, early detection, and treatment.

May is National Stroke and Hypertension awareness month. Today is also World Hypertension Day. Normal blood pressure is lower than 120/80. Over time, high blood pressure affects the cardiovascular system. Hypertension often times goes unnoticed, which is why it’s termed the “silent killer.” Worldwide, hypertension is responsible for 7.5 million deaths per year. In the US, on average 1 person will have a stroke every 40 seconds and 1 person will die of stroke every 4 minutes. Women have a higher risk of stroke compared to men.
