We want to give a big thank you to Kye Laughter, Region Director for Senator Tedd Budd, for making the trip to visit with us yesterday! We had a great conversation about PBMs, the challenges independent pharmacies are facing, and the federal priorities that could make a real difference for our patients and communities. We truly appreciate your time, support, and willingness to listen!

🧠💪 Nitric Oxide: It’s More Than Just Blood Flow...Most people only associate nitric oxide (NO) with vasodilation — but it does way more than just open up blood vessels. Ready to purchase? Link in bio.👇

Here’s why it matters:
✅ Boosts blood flow & circulation
✅ Supports healthy blood pressure
✅ Enhances exercise performance & Recovery
✅ Sharpens brain function & memory✅
Promotes sexual health (yes, that’s vasodilation too)

🔥 Want to boost your NO levels naturally?
🥦 Top Foods:
• Beets or beetroot powder
• Arugula & spinach
• Pomegranate & watermelon
• Garlic, fermented foods
• Dark chocolate (80%+)

🏃‍♂️ Lifestyle Hacks:
• Exercise (HIIT & strength = best)
• Sunlight (UV helps generate NO)
• Nasal breathing & breathwork
• Prioritize quality sleep

💊 Key Supplements:
• L-citrulline & L-arginine (NO precursors)
• Beetroot extract (nitrate-rich)

🧓 Pro Tip:Nitric oxide production naturally declines with age — which makes these habits even more important if you’re over 40.

👇 Your Turn:Ever tried NO-boosting foods or supplements? Notice a difference in your workouts, blood pressure, or energy?Drop a comment — would love to hear your
experience.

Huge thanks to The Paper Media—and especially Nathaniel Eure—for consistently doing an outstanding job covering the complex world of PBMs. Your clear, thoughtful reporting makes a complicated issue much easier to understand. We're hopeful that the recent passage of a PBM bill in North Carolina will make a real difference in holding PBMs accountable and helping to lower medication costs.

For Jessi Stout, who operates Table Rock Pharmacy and compounding with her husband and who has been involved in PBM reform efforts for years, the bill marks a turning point

🎉 Exciting news — we just found out that we’re the first provider in the entire state to administer the new chikungunya vaccine, Vimkunya! 💉🙌

Never heard of chikungunya? It’s a mosquito-borne virus that can cause fever and intense joint pain that may linger for weeks or even months. 😣 It’s common in parts of Africa, Asia, and Central & South America — and cases are on the rise globally due to increased travel and climate change.

We’re excited to offer this protection for our travelers — and even more excited to be leading the way in bringing it to North Carolina first! 🌍✨

Planning an international trip? Book a travel consult and we’ll help you stay healthy from takeoff to touchdown. 🧳🦟

P.S. We want to give a shout out to our student .tenjhay who is leading the way on so many new initiatives this month!

Meet our current student .tenjhay, originally from Hickory, NC. She earned her chemistry degree from Lenoir-Rhyne University and is now pursuing a career in clinical pharmacy—with particular interests in infectious disease and oncology (though she’s keeping an open mind as she explores different areas of practice!).

She’s excited to engage with our patients and learn through new opportunities during her time with us. When she’s not studying or in the pharmacy, she enjoys baking, traveling, and spending time with her family.

We’re so happy to have her on the team!

🌟 Team Spotlight 🌟
We want to give a huge shoutout to Tonya Elizabeth for going above and beyond today—she came in on her day off to meet a patient who had run out of her seizure medication. Tonya didn’t hesitate for a second, and we’re so grateful for her selfless dedication and compassion.

We also want to thank the rest of our incredible team who volunteered to help while we’re out of town. We are truly lucky to have such a devoted group who are always willing to step up for our patients at the drop of a hat. 💛

🧬 Struggling with Insulin Resistance? Here’s What You Should Know 🧬

Insulin resistance is when your cells don’t respond well to insulin, making it harder to regulate blood sugar — and it’s more common than you think. The good news? Certain lifestyle tweaks and supplements can support healthy insulin sensitivity!

💪Here are 5 supplements that can help:🌿

Berberine – Helps lower blood sugar by improving how your cells use insulin.

💊 Magnesium Glycinate – Supports insulin signaling and glucose control, especially if you're deficient.

☀️ Vitamin D3 – Low vitamin D levels are linked to poor insulin sensitivity — this helps correct that.

🧪 Chromium – Enhances the action of insulin and supports stable blood sugar levels.

🐟 Omega-3 Fatty Acids – Reduces inflammation, which plays a big role in insulin resistance.

✨ Always talk to a healthcare professional before starting new supplements.
