Why do I need to get vaccinated every year? Because flu viruses evolve so quickly, last year's vaccine may not protect you from this year's viruses. New flu vaccines are released every year to keep up with rapidly adapting flu viruses.

But antibody levels may decline over time another reason to get a flu shot every year.... Call 661.587.8990 to schedule your appointment today!

Men generally need more calories than women, and people who exercise need more calories than people who don't. Make sure to 'FIND THE BALANCE IN HEALTHY EATING!'

We welcome our patients to take safety measures during these times. The safety of our patients, associates and physicians is our top priority. Please call us if you have any of the following symptoms: fever, cough, and shortness of breath. We want to guide you through this process.

Eat Heart Smart All Day! Yesterday we talked about Quick Healthy Breakfast. Today we want to share Healthy lunch ideas: A combination of lean protein and fresh produce will help fuel your body midday and keep your energy going through the afternoon. These food groups can be turned into:... *Salads: Salads don’t have just be rabbit food. But piles of salad dressing, croutons and cheese can steer salads the wrong direction. Instead, aim to load up on a rainbow of fresh veggies. And don’t forget to throw on a few berries for some heart-healthy antioxidants. *Wraps: Take your favorite protein and salad vegetables and wrap them in a whole-wheat tortilla to create a delicious, heart-healthy wrap. *Sandwiches: Whole-grain above and below your favorite lean protein and veggies is a lunchtime classic. Keep your sandwiches heart smart by skipping the mayo and adding a light vinaigrette or hummus instead. In addition to helping your heart, you’ll be helping your wallet as you avoid costly trips to local restaurants for lunch.
