June 2023 Health Posts You Shouldn't Miss
If you follow ForHers.com, you know we like to keep things simple and useful. June 2023 was packed with articles that tackled everything from natural supplements to tricky medication side effects. Below is a quick guide to what we covered so you can jump straight to the topics that matter most to you.
Top Supplements Covered
First up, we talked about two plant‑based boosters: Tolu Balsam and Tree of Heaven. The Tolu Balsam post broke down how this resin from a tropical tree can give your immune system a nudge. We shared real‑world dosage tips, like starting with a few drops in tea or adding it to a smoothie. Readers liked the focus on antioxidants and anti‑inflammatory benefits without any hype.
Next, the Tree of Heaven supplement got its own spotlight. This one is rich in nutrients that claim to lift energy, sharpen focus, and support immunity. We walked through how to add it to your daily routine—mix it into a morning shake or sprinkle the powder on oatmeal works best. The key takeaway was to start small and watch how your body reacts.
Key Medication Insights
We also dug into several prescription topics that often raise questions. One article explained why fenofibrate, a cholesterol‑lowering drug, can sometimes cause muscle pain. We reminded readers to talk to their doctor if they feel unusual aches and to never stop the medication without professional advice.
The Ibrutinib piece highlighted its emerging role in fighting graft‑versus‑host disease (GVHD) after bone marrow transplants. It’s a cancer drug that also seems to calm the immune response that triggers GVHD. We kept the explanation clear: it blocks an enzyme called Bruton's tyrosine kinase, which helps reduce inflammation.
Prasugrel, another blood‑thinner, was covered with practical tips for handling side effects. Staying hydrated, eating a balanced diet, and keeping up regular exercise can make a big difference. And as always, if symptoms get severe, see a doctor right away.
The eye health article warned about bacterial infections that can scar the cornea or even lead to vision loss. Simple habits like washing hands before touching eyes, avoiding sharing towels, and seeking prompt treatment were emphasized as the best defense.
All these posts share a common goal: give you clear, actionable advice without the medical jargon overload. Whether you’re curious about a new supplement, dealing with a prescription’s side effects, or just want to protect your eyes, the June archive has something for you.
