Meta analysis using the most serious outcome reported shows 83% [6‑97%] lower risk . Results are consistent with early treatment being more effective than late treatment. A study, published in Nature ( Takeda 2022 ) concluded that CPC (CetylPyridinium Chloride) may inhibit SARS-CoV-2 infection even at lower concentrations.

Most people in the United States consume less than recommended amounts of vitamin D . An analysis of data from the 2017–2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) found that average daily vitamin D intakes from foods and beverages were 4.3 mcg in men, 3.8 mcg in women, and 5 mcg (200 IU) in children aged 2–19 years ( NHANES 2017 - 2018 ). What Is Vitamin D? Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin, meaning that it dissolves in fats and oils and can be stored in your body for a long time. Vitamin D is important to the body in many ways. It helps the body absorb calcium from food and supplements. Muscles need it to move, for example, nerves need it to carry messages between the brain and every body part, and the immune system needs vitamin D to fight off invading bacteria and viruses. Together with calcium, vitamin D also helps protect older adults from osteoporosis. Vitamin D is found in cells throughout the body. Vitamin D Market Size The Global Vitamin D Market size was ...

How Much Do Knee Gel Injections Cost? (2024)

By Dr Frank Yap, MD -
Image
Knee pain injections are one of the best ways to target pain without long-term narcotics or unnecessary surgeries. It is no secret that the United States is currently facing an opioid epidemic. Recent medical research is now beginning to highlight the damage caused to our bodies by relying heavily on pain medication. In addition, knee replacement surgery and other invasive procedures carry risks such as blood clots, infection, and long rehabilitation periods. In the United States, knee pain injections cost approximately $1500. To receive the full benefit from these injections, 2-3 injections may be required. However, this is dependent on the type of knee pain. Osteoarthritis of the knee is a very common musculoskeletal disease affecting over 10 percent of the adult population and is a leading cause of disability within the United States. It’s estimated that more than 60 per cent of the worldwide population aged 65 and above has some form of the disease. ...

10 Best Nasal Sprays for COVID-19 (2024)

By Dr Frank Yap, MD -
Image
Do nasal sprays actually work against COVID-19? Can I use nasal spray if I have COVID-19?  The COVID-19 pandemic has been roaring on for 3 years. During this time, the FDA has authorized many treatments  that help combat COVID-19. COVID-19 vaccines have also been recommended by the CDC ever since the first ones were authorized in December 2020. However, medications that are already authorized are just a small percentage of what's been studied. Many researchers are still trying to find and develop other medications that can treat or prevent COVID-19. Among these, nasal sprays have caught the attention of many people. They’re often easy to use, and some researchers believe they could have a potential impact on the ongoing pandemic. But are any of them effective at treating or preventing COVID-19? And are any of them close to being available in the U.S.?  Which nasal sprays have been studied to treat or prevent COVID-19? A number of nasal sp...

By Dr Frank Yap, MD -
Image
GLP-1 receptor agonists like semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy) and tirzepatide (Mounjaro) are transforming how we approach weight loss and metabolic health. But how do these medications actually work inside the body and what should you know to get the best results? In this article, we break down the science of GLP-1: what it is, how these drugs work, and why mimicking this hormone is helping millions achieve better health outcomes. Credit: GoodRx Health What Is GLP-1? GLP-1  stands for glucagon-like peptide-1, a hormone produced in your gut that plays a key role in regulating blood sugar, appetite, and how fast food leaves your stomach. When you eat, GLP-1 is released and sends signals to your pancreas, brain, and stomach to help your body manage nutrients more effectively. How GLP-1 Affects Blood Sugar GLP-1  stimulates  insulin production and reduces glucagon (a hormone that raises blood sugar), but only when glucose levels are elevated. This reduces the risk of hypoglycemi...

9 Best Calcium, Magnesium, Vitamin D3 and K2 Supplements 2025

Calcium, magnesium, vitamin D and Vitamin K2 are vitamin and minerals that are vital to several bodily processes. Though they occur naturally in a variety of foods, many people take supplements to help increase their intake. Benefits and uses 1. May support bone health Calcium is the main mineral in your bones, which hold more than 99% of your body’s calcium stores. Your body is constantly regenerating its bone tissue, so it’s important to consume an adequate amount of this mineral daily ( bones.nih.gov ). Magnesium plays a key role in converting vitamin D into its active form, which aids calcium absorption ( Trusted Source ). Therefore, you can minimize your vitamin D requirement by making sure you’re also getting enough magnesium. Research has confirmed higher magnesium intake helps reduce your risk of vitamin D deficiency by activating more of it.  A  groundbreaking 2017 review  compiled over 80 studies that show vitamin D3 and K2 together might be greater than...
