Overview: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a very common problem seen in the primary care setting, but pharmacologic treatments do not alter the course of the disease and they are often associated with side effects or contraindicated in many older patients. Curcumin is an herbal treatment that has been shown to be effective for treating symptoms of OA. Join us for this episode as we discuss the evidence for curcumin in treating OA, and how to counsel patients on its use.

Overview: Times are stressful. Recent evidence has shown that stress, anxiety, and depression experienced by pregnant women may have a negative impact on the wellness of the newborn. Stress management is constrained during pregnancy due to concerns that pharmaceutical approaches may be harmful to the baby. Non-pharmaceutical approaches are accessible and safe. Join us as we review recent evidence on the effectiveness of mind-body interventions (MBI) in reducing stress and decreasing depression and anxiety in pregnant women, and discuss how MBI can be incorporated into patient care.

Overview: Rates of electronic cigarettes or vaping in teens has increased exponentially over the last 3 years. Prior to the introduction of the sleek 4th generation vaping device, tobacco use in the teen population was decreasing, and rates were low. Recent evidence indicates that teens with low intention to smoke, once they start vaping, are at increased risk of smoking cigarettes in future. Join us as we discuss the implications of this new evidence on our clinical practice and discuss strategies to reduce risk to adolescents.
