We would like to discuss a  matter way off our normal medical topics. We usually use this space to discuss custom herbal formulas and acupuncture, but we at Primary Care Holistic Center feel moved to address a real crisis. This is a non-partisan opinion, but a very important subject for us all to think about as a nation and globally.

Food Insecurity in the U.S.: What’s Happening & Who’s Helping
At a time when many of us are assuming hunger is a distant concern, the reality is quite the opposite: food insecurity is rising again in communities all across America. According to Feeding America, over 47 million people in the U.S.—including millions of children—face hunger or the threat of hunger. 

What’s driving the situation
• Cuts and pauses in federal-nutrition programs are tightening the safety net. For example, the The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP), which provides food to food banks via the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), has seen disruptions in deliveries and funding. 
• At the same time, many Americans are still feeling the effects of inflation and economic stress. Food-bank networks are reporting higher demand even as supplies become tighter. 

🤝 Who’s helping — and how

Several agencies and organizations are working hard to respond:
• Feeding America: A nationwide network of more than 200 food banks and over 60,000 partner agencies. They rescue food from farms, manufacturers and retailers and distribute it through local pantry networks. 
• The Salvation Army: Through its local food-pantry programs, they help distribute food and connect families with benefits like SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program). 
• TEFAP: A federal program that provides food to low-income Americans at no cost, offering foods purchased or donated by the USDA and distributed by states and food banks. 
• Community Networks & Local Volunteers: Your own experiences — friends helping in food banks, church groups distributing groceries — are especially important right now. These grassroots efforts fill gaps when larger systems lag.

What this means for us:

As a Holistic Medical Center, it’s worth recognizing that food instability is a health issue—not just an economic one. Nutritional insecurity impacts physical and mental health, recovery from illness, and the ability to maintain wellness. By sharing this information and supporting local food-aid efforts, your practice aligns with both health and community care.

At Primary Care Holistic Center, we extend our heartfelt wishes to all our patients, our community, our country, and the world. These are challenging times for many — emotionally, financially, and globally — and we recognize the weight that uncertainty can bring.

Our deepest hope is for healing, stability, and renewal to reach every household, near and far. We believe that compassion, connection, and care — in even the smallest acts — have the power to create meaningful change.

May the months ahead bring peace, restored health, and a sense of hope for all. Together, we can continue supporting one another and helping our communities find strength and comfort in unity.

You can purchase SANOTIZE (also known as Enovid) online at:
🌐 www.enovid.com

Or, for some international options:
🌐 www.sanotize.com

Please note:
• It is not yet FDA-approved in the U.S., so you may be ordering it from Israel or Canada.
• Always follow the instructions on the label for safe use.

Some countries now offer a special nasal spray made with nitric oxide that may help lower the risk of catching COVID-19. Studies show that when used before or after being in a crowd, it can reduce the amount of virus in your nose and may make it harder for the virus to take hold. It’s easy to use and has very few side effects, usually just mild nasal irritation. While this spray is not yet FDA-approved in the U.S., it is being used in places like Israel, India, and Thailand. It should not replace masks, vaccines, or testing, but it may offer an added layer of protection — especially during times of high exposure.

The holidays came with a side of flu for many Americans, with 40 states reporting high or very high levels of illness last week, according to the latest government health data.
“A lot of flu out there,” said the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Carrie Reed.
Of course, there are a number of bugs that cause fever, cough, sore throat, and other flu-like symptoms. One is COVID-19. Another is RSV, or respiratory syncytial virus, which is a common cause of cold-like symptoms but can be dangerous for infants and the elderly.
The most recent CDC hospitalization data and other indicators show that the flu virus is trending higher than the other germs, Reed said. Several seasonal flu strains are driving cases, with no dominant one, she added.
Pediatric hospitals have been busy since November with RSV, but “influenza has now joined the party,” said Dr. Jason Newland, an infectious diseases specialist at Nationwide Children’s Hospital in Columbus, Ohio.
“Now we’re really starting to roll,” he added. ”Our hospitals are busy.”

The CDC also has been keeping its eye on a rise of illnesses from norovirus, a nasty stomach bug, with 91 outbreaks reported early in December.
Investigators also have been closely watching another kind of influenza virus, the Type A H5N1 version of bird flu. The CDC says 66 human U.S. cases of that were reported last year, but none of them in the last week.
The cases are “fairly sporadic” and the overall risk to the public remains low, Reed said. Almost all have been traced to direct contact with infected animals, with no proof of spread between people.

As plastic waste proliferates around the world, an essential question remains unanswered: What harm, if any, does it cause to human health?

A few years ago, as microplastics began turning up in the guts of fish and shellfish, the concern was focused on the safety of seafood. Shellfish were a particular worry, because in their case, unlike fish, we eat the entire animal—stomach, microplastics and all. In 2017, Belgian scientists announced that seafood lovers could consume up to 11,000 plastic particles a year by eating mussels, a favorite dish in that country.

By then, however, scientists already understood that plastics continuously fragment in the environment, shredding over time into fibers even smaller than a strand of human hair —particles so small they easily become airborne. A team at the U.K.’s University of Plymouth decided to compare the threat from eating contaminated wild mussels in Scotland to that of breathing air in a typical home. Their conclusion: People will take in more plastic by inhaling or ingesting tiny, invisible plastic fibers floating in the air around them—fibers shed by their own clothes, carpets, and upholstery—than they will by eating the mussels.

So, it wasn't much of a surprise when, in 2022, scientists from the Netherlands and the U.K. announced they had found tiny plastic particles in living humans, in two places where they hadn’t been seen before: deep inside the lungs of surgical patients, and in the blood of anonymous donors. Neither of the two studies answered the question of possible harm. But together they signaled a shift in the focus of concern about plastics toward the cloud of airborne dust particles we live in, some of them so small they can pe*****te deep inside the body and even inside cells, in ways that larger microplastics can’t.

American medical Association (AMA)

Even though people are becoming more connected through social media and other outlets, the great irony is that many people still feel lonely. That loneliness, in turn, can have far-reaching implications on a person’s health and well-being. Loneliness as a public health issue was also intensified during the COVID-19 pandemic. But even with the end to the COVID-19 public health emergency, loneliness still remains a pressing issue. Knowing how to recognize loneliness and what can help patients overcome feeling lonely is key.

AMA policy adopted last year identifies loneliness as a public health issue that affects people of all ages. The policy also supports evidence-based efforts to combat loneliness. This year, the AMA doubled down and adopted policy to further address the growing public health problem of loneliness and isolation.

Understanding that lack of social connection has profound effects on mental and physical health, U.S. Surgeon General Vivek H. Murthy, MD, released an advisory on the epidemic of loneliness and isolation. About half of U.S. adults experience loneliness, which presents a major public health threat that is akin to smoking and obesity.
