☀️ Did you know? Your body needs vitamin D (hello, sunshine!) to absorb calcium — the building block of strong bones

🦴💪 Without enough vitamin D, even a calcium-rich diet won’t fully support your bone health.

💡 A little daily sunshine + vitamin D–rich foods (like salmon, eggs, or fortified milk) can go a long way for your bones and joints!

🌟 Intern Spotlight 🌟
We’re excited to share highlights from Joey’s internship experience this summer!

✨ Favorite Part
“My favorite part was attending clinics and outreach events—meeting so many different people and hearing their life stories. I also loved connecting with doctors and PAs and learning from their experiences as I prepare for my own journey toward becoming a physician.”

✨ Biggest Surprise
“I was surprised by just how important the patient experience is in the healthcare journey. Every visit requires teamwork, communication, and cohesion to make it the best it can be.”

✨ Career Impact
“This internship reaffirmed my dream of pursuing medical school. I’ve loved being surrounded by healthcare professionals and learning how a clinic operates—I can’t imagine doing anything else now.”

✨ Advice for Future Interns
“Say yes to every opportunity and don’t be afraid to try new things. Put yourself out there, network, and take advantage of being around so many amazing people who want to see you succeed.”

👏 Thank you, Joey, for your hard work and dedication this summer—we can’t wait to see what’s ahead in your medical journey!

Getting older? Get stronger! 💪✨

Strength training is one of the best ways to stay independent, protect your bones, and keep doing the things you love as you age. It builds muscle, boosts balance, and even reduces your risk of falls and fractures. Just 2x a week can make a big difference!

According to the latest article, Healthy joints start with healthy habits!🦴
Lifestyle changes like regular movement, balanced nutrition, and maintaining a healthy weight are some of the best ways to support your joints as you age.

✔️ Try not to sit for more than an hour—set a timer to stand up and stretch, even on long car rides!
🥗 Focus on anti-inflammatory foods and limit ultra-processed snacks.
⚖️ Losing just 5 pounds can take up to 20 pounds of pressure off your knees!
🚩 Don’t brush off joint pain as “just aging”—if it’s painful, red, swollen, or lasts more than an hour, it’s worth getting checked out.
Even small shifts can lead to big relief. Tiny victories matter. 💪✨
