July 20, 2023 – Private equity investment in health care can be lucrative. Yet, health care and private equity can often seem antithetical: One is driven by patient care and compliance while the other is motivated to make a quick profit.

Our four-part playbook for investors new to the health care sector provides an overview of precautions, a…

WHERE TO GET INGREDIENTS FOR JALAPENO POPPER CHAFFLES
If you haven’t noticed, I do not allow advertising on my site.
I just didn’t agree with some of the products that were advertised. They were keto products, but they were unhealthy and I would never personally eat most of the products. It was hard to say no to blog advertisements; they pay thousands of dollars a month, but I just feel uncomfortable about having the products I didn’t recommend on my website.
Instead, I have created a shopping list where you can find all the healthy ingredients that are difficult to…

BC promises $3M to expand program that partners cops with health-care providers
British Columbia is spending $3 million to expand a program that partners health-care workers with police in mobile teams to respond to mental health-related calls.
Public Safety Minister Mike Farnworth said Monday that the program aims to connect people in crisis to the appropriate services in their community, while taking pressure off stretched police resources.
“Currently, police have been the default first responders for people in the event of a mental health crisis and we know that in most cases, police-only involvement is not the most appropriate response,” he said.
“More importantly, having police-only involvement can help contribute to the…

I love gyros but store bought gyro meat contains gluten.
While I was on my keto retreat in Bali, the people who came on my retreat mentioned I should make gyro meat like my homemade deli meat recipe.

HOW TO MAKE PROTEIN SPARING GYROS
To make my recipe for protein sparing gyro meat and pita wraps, I used Further Food gelatin!
