HEALTH NEWS
- ➤ Funding for the Missouri Institute of Mental Health's Narcan program (MO-CORPS) may be cut if a federal $56 million grant is reduced, and officials warn that more overdose deaths could result from fewer trained first responders and limited naloxone supplies. The program has trained over 7,760 responders statewide and supplied more than 17,000 naloxone units, meaning rural areas will suffer the most if this resource is lost. KRCG-TV

A new take on hydration
For those tracking hydration, sodium intake is key. A growing wave of research suggests that optimal health may require sodium levels two to three times higher than traditional guidelines.
That’s where LMNT comes in. This zero-sugar electrolyte mix offers a science-backed boost without the additives. Popular among athletes, intermittent fasters, and wellness-minded parents alike, it's redefining how people stay hydrated.
Try LMNT totally risk-free and get a free LMNT Sample Pack with any purchase. Pro tip: If you don’t like it, they’ll refund your order, no questions asked.
