As more of us are under stress during this pandemic I’ve invited trusted health and lifestyle expert, OBGYN, Dr. Jacqueline Walters in the Valder Beebe Show studios. Dr. Jackie is one of the Bravo Network stars of Married to Medicine. She has garnered the respect of her peers, patients, and the public with her blend of passion-driven clinical knowledge and compassion. She has a passion for prevention, especially when it comes to women’s health.
Speaking directly to the audience, Dr. Jackie explains why National Wellness Month (August) this year will provide special challenges with the stress of quarantines, a pandemic and sheltering in place. This year, more than any in recent history, it’s important to remind everyone to take a moment and access their overall physical and mental health. Dr. Jackie’s list includes important wellness checks, numerous ways that each of us can promote personal wellness, how effective are vitamins and supplements and for young and older people, serious problems everyone should look out for and what you can do to be as safe as possible during the pandemic.
