Holistic Health Services are often only discussed in many situations, as an afterthought or presented only as “ alternative” solutions for patients seeking quality health care. I want to emphasize the relevance of utilizing both Western and Eastern Medicine simultaneously to increase compliance, and to improve patient satisfaction & health outcomes.
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Integrative Health & Medicine can be beneficial in helping to address the following:
Diabetes
Obesity
Heart Disease & Stroke
High Blood Pressure
Mental Health
According to the CDC:
*over 38 million of U.S. population has Diabetes.
*approximately 97.6 million U.S. adults have prediabetes.
Many people have not been screened for prediabetes, so their status is unknown.
In 2021, Mississippi ranked the third highest in the U.S. for overall diabetes prevalence.
*More than 325,000 adult Mississippians have type 2 diabetes.
Obesity prevalence in the U.S. escalates over 10 percent or more each year.
Obesity is another major health issue that many struggle with, and if not addressed can lead to other health complications,which can include: Diabetes II, heart disease high cholesterol, stroke, autoimmune diseases and more.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, almost 50% of Americans have high blood pressure.
Mississippi ranks second in the nation with the highest incidence of hypertension at nearly 45%.
Facts:
High Blood Pressure Medicine is highly prescribed, but not always taken.
Most people who are prescribed high blood pressure medicines rarely have their need for prescriptions re-evaluated, adjusted or stopped.
Mississippi is ranked 48 out of the 50 states and Washington D.C. for: (equitable) access to mental health services.
