Hair Straightener & Cancer Risk

Women who use hair straightening products more than 4 times a year have a significantly higher risk of developing uterine cancer than non-users, according to a new study. Similar research also suggests a 30% increase in risk of breast cancer among frequent users. The latest study, which tracked more than 46,000 women for 13 years, found that participants using hair relaxers or straighteners had 2.7 times the risk of pancreatic cancer and a 71% higher risk of thyroid cancer than non-users. These products often contain formaldehyde, phthalates and parabens, which, when absorbed into the bloodstream through the scalp, may disrupt the endocrine system and/or potentially damage DNA.

Acupuncture May Help Back Pain

Acupuncture therapy may help reduce lower-back pain. In a recent study, researchers randomly assigned 800 adults with chronic lower-back pain, age 65 or older, to either standard (8-15 sessions) or enhanced (12-19 sessions) acupuncture treatment or the usual medical care for 3 months. After 6 months, participants completed disability questionnaires. Thirty-nine percent of those in the standard and 44% of those in the enhanced acupuncture group reported improvement in pain-related disability. Only 29% of the usual-care group reported improvement. Experts say acupuncture may be a complementary treatment for lower-back pain management.

Practice Gratitude

Recognizing and appreciating the good in your life may boost your mental and physical health. When it becomes a daily habit, practicing gratitude has been linked to lower blood pressure, better sleep and a stronger immune system. It also has been shown to reduce stress and to lessen depression and anxiety by fostering positive thoughts and emotions. Practicing gratitude creates a sense of contentment and joy and increases overall life satisfaction. One way to start cultivating a more grateful attitude is to keep a gratitude journal. Write down three things that you are thankful for each day, no matter how small.

Let’s Talk About Tennessee Senate Bill 2040 — Facts vs. Fear

Hey Olde Towne Pharmacy Friends and Family, Josh here!

I had a conversation today that made it clear there’s a lot of confusion about Senate Bill 2040, especially when it comes to “access to care.”

Here are the facts:

• This bill is aimed at Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs)—the middlemen that control drug pricing and pharmacy reimbursement.
• It is designed to create fairer reimbursement and more transparency in how pharmacies are paid.
• It does NOT remove your ability to get medications or choose where you fill your prescriptions.

Some large chain pharmacies have suggested that this bill could reduce access to care. That’s a serious claim—but it needs context.

Independent pharmacies like ours are already here, already serving our communities, and already stepping up when access becomes an issue. If any company chooses to reduce services or close locations, patients will not be left without care. Local pharmacies have the ability—and the commitment—to continue serving those patients.

It’s also important to understand that any closures would ultimately be a business decision. Companies have options in how they respond to changes in the law, including restructuring or divesting certain business relationships. Those choices are not dictated by the bill itself.

This bill is about making sure community pharmacies can survive and continue providing care long-term—not reducing access.

At the end of the day, the real question is:
Do we want a system controlled by middlemen… or one that supports local healthcare providers who actually take care of patients?

I’m always happy to answer questions and have honest conversations about this.
