Wellness 101 Show – What is the Cures Act

cures No Comments »

Hey Guys. Mr. Wellness here. And today we’re gonna talk about the Cures Act. I know… the what?!?! We usually don’t get into government policy here but this is really important and it’s something you should know because it affects how you access your personal health information.

The Cures Act was originally signed into law in 2016 and it officially went into effect in November 2020. Basically, the Cures Act was designed to empower you with easy and unrestricted access to your personal health information by enabling you to get this information on apps and smart devices like your phone.

The biggest change that you may notice is you now have immediate access to information you did not have before – specifically your doctors’ clinical notes and test and study results. That’s right, your doctors’ notes, study and test results, your medical history, imaging results, procedure and progress notes… they’re all there for you. Isn’t that great?!

Maybe, but maybe not. Don’t forget, with great power comes great responsibility. What I’m saying is –don’t run to Google and start searching. Just don’t. I know you did it back when the internet was new but that pain in your big toe? It wasn’t Ebola.

So just like back then, you’re going to have to figure out how to appropriately understand and use the information now at your fingertips and how to discuss it with your doctor. And your doctor is going to have to figure out the best way to educate you and involve you more in care decisions.

Ultimately, the Cures Act is intended to empower you with information and encourage timely and effective conversation between you and your doctors. So remember… slow down, process the information you now have access to, talk with your doctors and together, you and your doctor can find the best way to move forward with your care.

Causes of Vitamin B12 Deficiency | In-Depth Overview including Medications, Diseases & Fish Tapeworm

Lesson on Vitamin B12 Deficiency Causes, including dietary intake issues, medication use, gastrointestinal disease (ex. crohn’s disease, celiac disease), GI infections, pancreatic disease and autoimmune conditions (ex. pernicious anemia). Vitamin B12 (cobalamin) is essential in our diet as we are not able to synthesize it ourselves, and it is necessary for healthy red blood cell production, DNA synthesis and central nervous system functioning. Vitamin b12 deficiency can be due to a variety of causes within 2 major categories: reduced dietary intake and compromised absorption. Compromised absorption entails a wide variety of causes including certain medications, and issues within the gastrointestinal tract.

In this lesson, we discuss a detailed overview of causes of Vitamin b12 deficiency, including discussing pernicious anemia, crohn’s disease, celiac disease and We also discuss the physiology of normal B12 metabolism and absorption and discuss where in this physiological pathway many disease states interfere with B12 absorption.
