B&W Quality Growers Reviews the Benefits of Watercress, the CDC’s Most Nutrient-Dense Food
Watercress contains over 50 essential nutrients to help fight off illness and infections.

With many illnesses on the rise, consumers are uncovering natural methods to boost immune support, and eating watercress is one of the best ways to strengthen your immune system, says B&W Quality Growers. The immune system comprises the spleen, thymus, bone marrow, and skin that work together to keep toxins from entering the body. A strong immune system prevents and fights off illnesses by producing, maintaining, and repairing the body's cells and can be stimulated by watercress, according to the National Institute of Health

Watercress contains over 50 essential nutrients and is the only food to obtain a perfect score from both the CDC and ANDI. Its high levels of fiber, magnesium, and potassium aid the thymus, responsible for white cell production, in fighting off infections. White blood cells are the body's immune cells, flowing through the bloodstream to fight off foreign invaders to keep the body healthy. 

But just as important as cell production, the immune system also works to maintain the cells it produces. The spleen monitors white and red blood cell levels in the body and bone marrow releases these blood cells when they are mature and required. The calcium and carotenoids, potent antioxidants, found in watercress support these organs by lowering oxidative stress and ultimately, the risk of cell damage and chronic illnesses, such as arthritis, Alzheimer's disease, and Parkinson's disease. 

Additionally, watercress is rich in folate and Vitamins C and E, some of the primary nutrients in aiding the largest part of the immune system and the body's first line of defense, the skin. Vitamin E protects the skin from free radical damage caused by lifestyle factors such as the sun, smoking, and pollution, amongst other toxins. At the same time, folate is a vital nutrient for DNA repair. Vitamin C helps heal injuries through cell and tissue repair, and it supports collagen production, which provides strength and structure to the middle layer of the skin to allow new cells to grow. 

A strong immune system can prevent and treat illnesses and infections. Incorporating watercress into your diet is a natural way to strengthen the immune system and raw consumption is the best way to absorb the nutrients from this power-packed superfood. Because of watercress's high Vitamin K content - 106% of your daily recommended dosage - always consult your physician before regularly changing your health routine.

Serve You Rx Transitions Ownership of Overdose Aid Kit (OAK) Program to the Clinton Foundation for National Scaling

Overdose Aid Kit (OAK)

In a significant move to combat the ongoing opioid epidemic that has ravaged communities across the United States, Serve You Rx announced the transition of ownership of its life-saving Overdose Aid Kit (OAK) program to the Clinton Foundation.

In a significant move to combat the ongoing opioid epidemic that has ravaged communities across the United States, Serve You Rx announced the transition of ownership of its life-saving Overdose Aid Kit (OAK) program to the Clinton Foundation. This transition was unveiled during a press conference held on August 16, 2023, hosted by the Georgia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities (DBHDD) as part of the launch of the month-long "Mobilize Recovery Across Georgia Bus Tour."

The opioid epidemic has devastated communities nationwide, with 109,000 lives lost to drug overdose in the United States in 2022 alone. In light of this urgent need for intervention, the transition of the OAK program to the Clinton Foundation holds great promise for its national scalability and impact.

During the press conference, Chris Thrasher, Chief Executive Officer of the Substance Use Disorders and Recovery Division at the Clinton Foundation, highlighted the Foundation's ongoing commitment to addressing the opioid crisis. He stated, "The OAK Program is a brand-new Clinton initiative that will work to get naloxone into as many businesses, schools, government agencies, and households as possible by installing these boxes. And we are grateful for our partnership with Serve You Rx for transitioning this program over to us at the Clinton Foundation so we can begin to scale it nationally."

Justin Jasniewski, CEO of Serve You Rx, expressed enthusiasm for the transition, noting, "We are thrilled to entrust our OAK Program to the Clinton Foundation, especially during such a pivotal moment in the nation's fight against overdose deaths and addiction. With the Foundation's resources, passion, and commitment, we're confident that they will amplify the OAK mission of delivering life-saving naloxone to those that need it and meeting them where they are in their communities without shame or stigma."

The OAK Program represents a crucial step in saving lives and mitigating the far-reaching impacts of the opioid crisis. As the Georgia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities partners with the Clinton Foundation to launch the "Mobilize Recovery Across Georgia Bus Tour," this collaboration is a beacon of hope and progress in the ongoing battle against addiction.

Dusk to Dawn Urgent Los Angeles reports smash-and-grab of medical supplies and COVID Test Kits early Monday, Aug. 28, 2023, around 4 a.m. Dusk to Dawn Urgent Care, Paramount location, which serves hundreds of patients, was robbed of thousands of dollars in critical medical supplies that supplied multiple office locations. Dr. Vinson Eugene Allen, founder of the urgent care chain, reported the incident to the Lakewood Sheriff's department, where an investigation is in place. Video surveillance shows two individuals carrying large duffle bags of medical supplies walking away to a possible unseen vehicle. Dr. Allen shared a social media post on Facebook, describing the robbery event that took place at Dusk to Dawn Urgent Care in Paramount California. 

Dusk to Dawn Urgent Care serves over 100,000 Los Angeles and Orange County patients and is known for its 20 years of community outreach. Founders Dr. Vinson Eugene Allen and his wife Dr. Connie Yu Allen were recently celebrated on July 01, 2023, receiving California's First Responders Award for their heroic impact on Southern California during the pandemic of 2020. The power couple spearheads many charity events around the state, with outreach programs supporting many California communities.

Dr. Vinson Eugene Allen states, "Smash-and-grab vandalism is beginning to become a norm for many California businesses. In these challenging times, it is imperative for the community, law enforcement agencies, and healthcare providers to come together in addressing this issue. I believe by raising awareness among the public and actively collaborating with local authorities, we can work towards preventing future incidents like this from occurring."

Dr. Vinson Eugene Allen and his wife Dr. Connie Yu Allen are planning to meet with city leaders and law enforcement this week concerning the overnight robberies happening in Los Angeles. Dusk to Dawn Urgent Care is currently adding new security measures for all of its locations and promises to have new supplies soon to serve its patients.

Created by Air Force Combat Veteran, Voyatic Provides More Financial Freedom for Travelers

Skylar DeRouen, a 20-year veteran of the United States Air Force, used his military experience to build a finance company, known as Voyatic, for travelers. 

"When my supervisor was retiring, he confessed his financial struggles due to debts and a lack of 401K contributions. His words served as a wake-up call. I took his advice to heart, investing wisely for 20 years. Now, not only am I financially stable, but I'm also passionate about helping others. This led me to build a business centered around financial literacy," said DeRouen.

Initially, DeRouen was hosting speaking events for military members and their spouses. He taught on topics like budgeting tactics, how to get out of debt, and setting up investment accounts for children. He's since transitioned his company to teach everyone about better financial habits and freedom, specifically travelers.

"I'm a big traveler. I've traveled to over 30 countries. I know that travelers have questions on everything from budgeting to the hot spots to go to. Also, how to make income while traveling is another common question I get. I've been obsessed with financial services like Morningstar and learning how to grow my investments. My military career and degree in finance provided me with the necessary tools to build this platform with success," said DeRouen.

DeRouen has gained a large social media following. He currently has over 55,000 followers on YouTube who follow him for his travel advice and cinematography.
