iQuanti: For many people carrying student loan debt, the present moment can be a confusing time to think about a repayment strategy. During the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, changes to federal loan servicers and a repayment pause that was extended several times created some uncertainty. Eventually, student loan repayments will resume, and borrowers will be required to pay once again. Below are a few ways to maximize your student loan repayment strategy.
Take Advantage of Loan Forgiveness
Student loan forgiveness means you may not be required to repay all or some of your federal student loans. Here are a few ways you may qualify for loan forgiveness.
Examples of Student Loan Forgiveness Options:
The Biden Administration's Student Loan Debt Relief Plan — While details about the Biden Administration's plan are still being released, we encourage readers to check the government's website for qualifications and eligibility. What we know now is that the plan includes loan forgiveness of up to $20,000 and you have until Dec. 31, 2023, to apply.
Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) — If you work full-time for a qualifying not-for-profit or government organization, you may be able to receive loan forgiveness under the PSLF program, which erases the remaining loan balance once you've made 120 qualifying monthly payments.
Income-Driven Repayment (IDR) Plan Request — IDR plans can provide a lower monthly repayment plan. However, the borrower must recertify their income each year to remain enrolled.
Teacher Loan Forgiveness — Full-time teachers who have worked in a low-income school or educational agency for five consecutive years may be eligible for forgiveness of up to $17,500.
Pay Off Your Student Loans Faster
Many graduates are paying off hefty student loans after they graduate while struggling to pay their regular bills or reach financial goals like saving up for a down payment on a home.
Key Ways to Pay Your Student Loan Faster:
Start Paying Immediately — You may be able to start making payments during your grace period, even if they're small payment amounts. A grace period for student loans is a stretch of time, after you've graduated or left school, when you're not required to make payments. Most student loans have a six-month grace period, although please check with your lender for details specific to your loans. So, if you have income from a part-time job during college and you can fit it into your budget, you may be able to cover the accruing monthly interest by making monthly payments immediately.
Pay More Than Your Monthly Minimum — Paying a little more than your monthly payment each month may help lower the total cost of your loan by reducing the interest or number of payments you will have to make over the life of the loan.
Use "Surprise Money" — Do you get a holiday bonus at work or when you hit a performance goal? Did a family member gift you money for a birthday, graduation or other milestone? This money can include your tax refund or an unexpected inheritance. Consider allocating these "surprise" extra funds to your student loan.
Refinance Student Loans
If paying off your student loan feels so daunting that you don't know how to start, you might need to look at your monthly budget. Refinancing higher interest rate student loans may go a long way to help you manage your student loans with a lower rate.
You Have Private Student Loans — Refinancing private student loans can get you a lower interest rate and more attractive loan terms that can result in significant savings. Note that if you refinance federal student loans with a private lender, you will lose access to federal programs, such as income-driven repayment, federal forbearance, and any other benefits offered to federal borrowers.
You Want to Boost Your Savings — Even if you don't have the best credit, student loan refinancing may still be possible with the chance to save by snagging a better rate. Your lender may even offer a student loan refinancing bonus.
You Have a Loan With Variable Rates — It can be challenging to predict how much you will have to repay every month with a variable rate loan, and even then, variable rates can be more expensive to repay over time if interest rates rise. So, it could be wise to lock in a fixed rate for more reliability and peace of mind.
Although student loans may be challenging to manage at times, the benefits of obtaining a higher education academic degree can ensure you're building a bright future. With the right strategy, you can still maximize your student loan savings opportunities to help you reach your future financial goals.

Cambridge Isotope Laboratories, Inc. (CIL) has partnered with ISOtopic Solutions to release the new stable isotope-labeled and unlabeled Crude Lipid Yeast Extracts. These are designed to render hundreds of fatty acids and lipids for use in MS lipidomics research and development.
Andrew Percy (Ph.D.), CIL's MS 'Omics Product Manager and Senior Applications Scientist for Mass Spectrometry, states: "These analytes are broadly dispersed across a multitude of metabolic classes and pathways. This represents the largest panel of stable isotope-labeled standards commercially available in a single mix for targeted profiling and relative quantification of the lipidome."
Andrew goes on to say: "A major benefit of the stable isotope-labeled lipid yeast extract is that the fatty acids and lipids are uniformly 13C-labeled at high isotopic enrichment. 13C labeling provides superior isotopic stability and analytical reliability as compared to 2H (or deuterium) labeling."
Gerrit Hermann (Ph.D.), founder and CEO of ISOtopic Solutions, states: "Up to now, the lack of suitable internal standards has been one of the major limiting factors to achieve absolute quantitation in the field of lipidomics. The use of internal standards is a prerequisite to ensure high precision and accuracy, as well as to correct for errors introduced during sample preparation procedures. However, due to the high number and structural diversity of lipid molecules, it is almost impossible to ensure molecule-specific stable isotope-labeled internal standardization. This explains why class-specific internal standards have been used to date. This U-13C-labeled lipid yeast extract might enable these shortcomings to be overcome. In fact, these U-13C-labeled yeast cell extracts have already been widely used in microbiological metabolism studies, including targeted quantitative metabolite profiling."
Overall, these lipid yeast extract mixes (Cat nos. L-ISO1 and L-ISO1-UNL) are well suited for researchers performing MS lipidomics and integrative MS 'Omics (involving lipidomics). Both of these products are available exclusively through CIL. To learn more about these new Crude Lipid Yeast Extracts, as well as the established Metabolite Yeast Extracts (Cat nos. ISO1 and ISO1-UNL), please visitisotope.com.

For millions of people, gastroesophageal reflux disease, or GERD, is a painful and uncomfortable condition that interrupts their life on a daily basis and can leave them feeling discouraged and defeated. In fact, up to 30 percent of Americans suffer from GERD, or heartburn, and many of those patients resort to taking antacids or medications in order to manage it. Often, prescription medications for GERD can lead to side effects such as nausea, diarrhea, chronic vitamin b12 deficiency, osteoporosis and fundic gastric polyps.
While taking prescriptions for GERD is a common option for those who suffer from the condition, many people find themselves wishing there was a more natural way to relieve the symptoms. This is where GerdLi comes in. GerdLi is the world's first natural antacid supplement and was created via a custom physician-engineered formula using the rinds of citrus fruits. GerdLi helps to alleviate the symptoms of GERD the natural way, in use with lifestyle modifications and as an alternative to antacids.
By incorporating GerdLi into an already healthy lifestyle, those who suffer from GERD will experience relief. They can be assured that they're adding something natural into their regimen that will, in the long-term, help them manage their GERD and ultimately feel better.
What is GERD and how does GerdLi help?
GERD is a condition that develops when stomach acid enters the esophagus and causes troublesome symptoms and complications. It is often referred to as heartburn, and those who have GERD will typically feel pain or discomfort after consuming certain foods or drinks. GERD is a clinical diagnosis or a diagnosis that is made by a patient after relaying their symptoms. If the case is more severe, testing can be done or if the diagnosis is inconclusive. Lifestyle modifications, including dietary changes and weight loss mainly, are done to help manage GERD. However, many people still find themselves on prescription medications.
Created as a natural alternative to prescription medications like antacids, GerdLi is a supplement for those looking to manage their GERD more naturally. GerdLi uses D-limonene, a compound derivative that is sourced from citrus fruits such as oranges, grapefruits, mandarins and limes. D-limonene works to decrease stomach acid content, which in turn helps reduce heartburn.
Origins and creation
The process of creating GerdLi began in 2017 and took nearly three and a half years to materialize. Dr. M, the physician who developed GerdLi, was fueled by his own personal interest and experience with chronic GERD leading to esophagitis. Dr. M had been hospitalized twice in the last four years for severe esophagitis - once in 2016, and one more recently in November 2020. He was then diagnosed with LA grade D esophagitis, which affected his ability to eat due to pain.
"Although my case is a severe example, there are millions of people who are affected by GERD," he said. "Instead of having to take medications for life, many like myself wish there would be a natural alternative. I created GerdLi to find a natural option for those who suffer from GERD and may feel as though prescription-strength medication is their only choice."
Feeling better with GerdLi
GerdLi is simple to use and the capsule is small, which makes it easy to swallow. Dr. M said by adding GerdLi into a healthy lifestyle plan, people will see results quickly. Most people who have taken GerdLi have noticed an improvement in their acid reflux symptoms within two to four weeks.
It's recommended that users take one 500-milligram soft gel capsule twice daily for a total of 1,000 milligrams. Users should not take more than four capsules within 24 hours. There are no known side effects or reactions to GerdLi noted by trial participants, as Dr. M said the supplement is very safe. GerdLi is specially manufactured in a facility registered by the Food and Drug Administration to ensure the highest quality, and it is made from the highest potency, specially sourced D-limonene.

"Homeowners want comfortable, efficient, high-performing homes," said Robin LeBaron, president and co-founder of Pearl Certification. "But until now, there has been no way for them to capture the value of energy efficiency and other high-performing improvements they make because these features are typically invisible at the time of sale. That's where Pearl Certification steps in."
Every Pearl Certification captures the high-performing features of the home, including how efficient each asset is compared to the national or state average, as well as product highlights, such as the manufacturer, model number, and relevant ratings. Thanks to its partnership with the Appraisal Institute, Pearl Certification includes a Residential Green and Energy Efficient Addendum with every certification to help appraisers accurately value the home's high-performing features.
Homeowners can access their certification through Pearl's free, award-winning Green Door app, as well as contact top contractors in the elite Pearl Network. Pearl also supports the national housing market by training real estate agents to effectively market a home's high-performing features and by partnering with public entities to build a market that rewards energy efficiency.
"We issued our first certification nearly six years ago to the day," said Cynthia Adams, Pearl Certification CEO and co-founder. "Pearl Certification continues to expand its products, services, and team to meet the growing demand of the high-performing homes market. The Inflation Reduction Act's High-Efficiency Electric Home Rebate and the Home Owner Managing Energy Savings (HOMES) Rebate will substantially increase demand for high-performing homes. We look forward to enabling even more homeowners to achieve their home improvement goals and to advancing the residential market."
About Pearl Certification
Pearl Certification is the gold standard in high-performing home certifications, bringing visibility to the valuable features that make them healthy, safe, comfortable, and energy- and water-efficient. Pearl is the only national sponsor of the U.S. Department of Energy's Home Performance with ENERGY STAR® program and is a partner with the National Association of REALTORS® Green REsource Council. Pearl has certified and provided appraisal addenda on over 100,000 homes in 44 states and Washington, D.C. Pearl Certified homes sell on average for 3.5-6% more than comparable homes, according to independent appraiser studies. https://pearlcertification.com

The benefits allowed Paradise for Parents to maintain healthy resident standards while rewarding its deserving staff amid critical supply shortages.
DES MOINES, Iowa - September 26, 2022 - (Newswire.com)
Through a key partnership with Innovation Refunds, Phoenix-based nursing home Paradise for Parents was able to secure critical ERC funding, which paid for essential facility equipment and a much-deserved employee bonus. As a turnkey tax solutions firm specializing in Employee Retention Credit (ERC) and payroll tax refunds, Innovation Refunds took care of the entire ERC application process and was able to connect Paradise for Parents with the capital they needed to maintain operations.
When Hal Cranmer, co-owner of Paradise for Parents, first heard about Innovation Refunds through a radio advertisement, he knew he needed to take immediate action. At the time, the COVID-19 pandemic was in full swing. The spread of the virus severely impacted the U.S. supply chain, and the nursing home needed capital to cover the costs of critical supplies for residents.
The impact on the supply chain put substantial pressure on Cranmer and his staff. He still recalls the stress, remembering when he desperately made calls to secure enough toilet paper for 50 residents in the middle of the initial supply chain shortage.
The facility needed additional funding to secure protective gear to prevent COVID from spreading to its residents and employees and to install technology that would allow residents to see and speak with their families, who were no longer allowed to visit due to government restrictions. The Innovation Refunds team oversaw and managed the entire ERC application process for Paradise for Parents. After conducting a cross-checking analysis, the team determined that the nursing home qualified to receive employee retention credit.
"Hal and his team had a strong desire to keep residents and staff members safe amid the most challenging moments of the pandemic," said Innovation Refunds CEO Howard Makler. "Once we verified Paradise for Parents' refund eligibility, our team was motivated to accelerate the application process to supply the home with the funding they needed as fast as possible."
Upon receiving the ERC benefits, Cranmer decided to dedicate a portion of the funds to support his employees directly in the form of a bonus.
"Several employees called me, saying they thought I paid too much," said Cranmer. "I would tell them, 'No, I didn't. We got this refund because of you, so you deserve it.' I felt it was essential to recognize and compensate our staff members who worked and persevered through such difficult times."
Cranmer also utilized some ERC funding to hire an immigration lawyer to help bring some of the caregivers' families to America to reunite them during the pandemic.

From 2019 to 2020, more than 11,000 people who had been using drugs were treated in U.S. emergency departments for injuries that occurred while riding a bicycle, according to a new report in the Journal of Studies on Alcohol and Drugs.
"When these patients present to the emergency department, it becomes important not only to treat the injuries but also to refer patients to drug treatment in an effort to intervene and prevent further negative events related to drug use," says the report's lead author Bart Hammig, Ph.D., M.P.H., of the Public Health Program at the University of Arkansas.
Further, among these patients, typical injury-prevention measures such as helmet wearing and improved bike lanes may not be enough to reduce these incidents, as it is "unlikely that the person was riding the bike for exercise," according to the study's authors.
Such bicyclists may instead be riding because of circumstances related to a substance use disorder, such as homelessness, license revocation from a previous driving-while-intoxicated conviction or financial instability -- all of which may limit the ability to drive a car for transportation.
"This is an often overlooked and ignored population when discussing bicycle injuries," Hammig says, "but one that stakeholders such as emergency department personnel, drug treatment centers and transportation officials need to consider when trying to prevent future injuries."
According to Hammig and his co-author, Robert Davis, Ph.D., bicycle crash victims who are intoxicated often have more serious injuries than others. In the study, the reported injuries included fractures (22%) and internal organ injuries (19%), and nearly a third of patients had to be admitted to the hospital. Few injuries (1%) were concussions, but 8% of crashes resulted from drug poisonings. Because the data were recorded at the hospital, victims who died at the scene were not included.
A disproportionate percentage of the patients were men (86.4%). The most common drugs found in the system of crash victims were methamphetamine (36.4%), cannabis (30.7%) and opioids (18.5%), and nearly a quarter of patients also had alcohol in their system.
To conduct their research, Hammig and Davis reviewed 2019-2020 data from the National Electronic Injury Surveillance System, a hospital-based database. Statistics from the system's nationally representative sample of U.S. hospitals allow for estimation of the number of incidents countrywide. In this study, the researchers extracted all data for bicycle injuries related to the use of psychoactive drugs (independent of alcohol) during the study period. They estimated there were 11,314 such injuries -- 2.6% of the overall estimated 480,286 bicycle injuries in that study period.
Hammig and Davis note that, because a variety of circumstances contribute to drug-related bicycle crashes -- often overlapping and interacting factors -- prevention will be difficult. However, they note that further surveillance, data collection and study will help elucidate additional ways to prevent such injuries.
