In January 2016, California passed a law allowing pharmacists to prescribe hormonal contraceptives without the prescription from a doctor. However, few youth know about this opportunity and pharmacist training and outreach has been limited. YTH is developing a solution, ReproRX, to connect young women to pharmacists and to provide pharmacists the necessary training to effectively counsel youth in their contraceptive choices. Come see the first prototype, learn about our project plan, and weigh in on the best ways to connect youth to this innovative care.

Yoga Postures to Practice for Holistic (Physical, Mental, and Cognitive) Well...Bhoj Raj Singh
油
An ancient System for holistic health (mental and physical) and wellbeing, is a scientific art of living with harmony (connecting) of mind and body. Although much more ancient than Patanjali, who documented yoga systematically about 2000 years ago, Patanjali is often referred to as the "father of modern yoga."
Yoga postures are commonly depicted in ancient paintings, carvings, and sculptures in almost all civilizations and religions, thus Yoga cant be described as an act of Hinduism. It originated long before any religion on Earth, with the emergence of life on the Planet. All yoga poses are natural, and what is not natural is not yoga; it is油Viyoga.
Besides Vedic Yoga, Hatha, Vinyasa, Ashtanga, Iyengar, Yin, Restorative, Kundalini, Bikram, Sahaj, and Power yoga are some popular types.
Vinyasa油Yoga is the closest form to Vedic Yoga; it is known for its flowing movements, not very rigorous, not too much straining, actions flow with the breath.
Though all yoga may lead to meditation (Dhyan) for your inner upliftment, it is not the same as described in Hinduism for self-liberation.
In Hinduism, different paths of life looking distinct but can be practiced all together, they are: Karma Yoga (selfless action and service), Bhakti Yoga (devotion and love for God or Godly power), Jnana (Gyan) Yoga (gaining knowledge for self-realization through wisdom), Dhyan Yoga (meditation) and Kriya Yoga (optimum utilization of your vital and muscular energy).油

On December 9, 2024, the American Diabetes Association (ADA) released the Standards of Care in Diabetes - 2025, which outlines evidence-based guidelines for diagnosing and managing diabetes and prediabetes. These guidelines, based on the latest scientific research and clinical trials, cover treatment approaches for both adults and children. They also address strategies to prevent or slow the progression of type 2 diabetes and related health conditions, including obesity.
The updated standards include care recommendations designed to improve health outcomes. The ADA revises these guidelines annually through its Professional Practice Committee (PPC), which consists of experts from various fields including physicians, nurse practitioners, certified diabetes care and education specialists, registered dietitian nutritionists, pharmacists, and methodologists.
The Standards of Care in Diabetes - 2025 is available online as a supplement to the January 2025 issue of Diabetes Care. A mobile application compatible with iOS and Android devices, it offers the latest guidelines, interactive tables, and algorithms for quick reference.
The ADA, a voluntary health organization, has focused on diabetes research and public health for 84 years. With 136 million Americans affected by diabetes or prediabetes, the organization continues to support education, program development, and advocacy efforts.Irradiation to prevent TA-GvHD by Dr. Abrar Kabir Shishir.pptx
