Drug Safety Communication on Veozah (fezolinetant)
FDA added a Boxed Warning, our most prominent warning, to highlight the known risk of rare but serious liver injury associated with use of menopause medicine Veozah (fezolinetant).
In September, the FDA issued a drug safety communication warning that Veozah can cause rare but serious liver injury. If there are signs and symptoms suggesting liver injury, stopping the medicine could prevent worsening liver injury and potentially return liver function to normal.

Nutrition Education Resources & Materials Resources on the importance of good nutrition
https://www.fda.gov/food/nutrition-food-labeling-and-critical-foods/nutrition-education-resources-materials?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery
Parties, family dinners, and other gatherings where food is served are all part of the holiday cheer. But the joy can change to misery if food makes you or others ill. Typical symptoms of foodborne illness, also known as food poisoning, are vomiting, diarrhea, and flu-like symptoms, which can start anywhere from hours to days after contaminated food or drinks are consumed.
Food Safety Tips for Healthy Holidays
Following these safe food-handling practices will help prevent food poisoning, also called foodborne illness.
https://www.fda.gov/consumers/consumer-updates/food-safety-tips-healthy-holidays?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery
Safe Food Handling
Consuming dangerous foodborne bacteria will usually cause illness within 1 to 3 days of eating the contaminated food. However, sickness can also occur within 20 minutes or up to 6 weeks later. Symptoms of foodborne illness can include: vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain – and flu-like symptoms, such as fever, headache, and body ache.

Cook to a Safe Minimum Internal Temperature
https://www.foodsafety.gov/food-safety-charts/safe-minimum-internal-temperatures?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery
Cook to a Safe Minimum Internal Temperature
Follow the guidelines below for how to cook raw meat, poultry, seafood, and other foods to a safe minimum internal temperature. Always use a food thermometer to check whether meat has reached a safe minimum internal temperature that is hot enough to kill harmful germs that cause food poisoning. Some meats also need rest time after cooking. Rest time is important for certain meats because it allows the innermost parts and juices of the meats to become fully and safely cooked.
People at Risk of Food Poisoning
https://www.foodsafety.gov/people-at-risk?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery
People at Risk of Food Poisoning
Food poisoning or foodborne illness can affect anyone who eats food contaminated by bacteria, viruses, parasites, toxins, or other substances, but certain people are more likely to get sick or to have a serious illness.
Know whether you’re in a group of people who are more likely to get food poisoning and make safer choices to reduce your risk for foodborne illness.

Adapting Evidence-Based Mind and Body Interventions: Why, When, and How Date: February 12, 2025 - 09:00 a.m. ET to February 13, 2025 12:00 p.m. ET
https://www.nccih.nih.gov/news/events/adapting-evidence-based-mind-and-body-interventions-why-when-and-how?nav=govd
The National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH) and other National Institutes of Health (NIH) Institutes and Centers have noted increased grant applications proposing to adapt evidence-based interventions to increase fit for different populations, settings, and health conditions. In particular, the NCCIH portfolio of research grants that propose to adapt approaches with physical and/or psychological therapeutic inputs (often called mind and body interventions) has increased significantly. Yet, widespread debate exists on the benefits, unintended consequences, and timing of adapting interventions. The purpose of this 2-day workshop is to lay the groundwork on complex issues such as why adaptations of mind and body interventions are needed, when they should be made during the pipeline of research, and how to conduct adaptations rigorously. The goals of the workshop are to 1) understand the range of perspectives on why, when, and how mind and body interventions should be adapted to improve fit for specific contexts and 2) inform priorities of NCCIH and other components of NIH about why, when, and how research that involves adaptations of evidence-based interventions can be impactful for improving health and well-being. Although the workshop will focus on mind and body interventions, it will feature the perspectives of diverse fields.
Interface Between Sleep and Pain: Symptomatology, Pathobiology, and Treatment Response (NIH HEAL Initiative Workshop) Date: December 16, 2024 to December 17, 2024
https://www.nccih.nih.gov/news/events/interface-between-sleep-and-pain-symptomatology-pathobiology-and-treatment-response-virtual?nav=govd
The Helping to End Addiction Long-term® Initiative, or NIH HEAL Initiative®, is convening a virtual scientific workshop focused on the intersection between sleep/circadian rhythms and chronic pain conditions. The overall goal of the workshop is to identify opportunities to integrate advances in sleep and circadian science with priorities in pain biology, prevention, and therapeutics. The workshop will facilitate discussion on the state of the science in sleep and pain research and provide important information for National Institutes of Health (NIH) program and strategic planning. Interested researchers are encouraged to view the meeting online via NIH VideoCast. Sleep deficiency (e.g., short sleep duration, irregular timing, poor sleep quality) and sleep disorders (e.g., insomnia, sleep apnea, shift work sleep disorder) are frequently comorbid in individuals with acute and chronic pain conditions (e.g., osteoarthritis, neuropathy, cancer, sickle cell disease, temporomandibular disorders, fibromyalgia).
The workshop is being coordinated by the following components of NIH: National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH), and National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS). Registration is required.
Adding Mindful Awareness in Body-Oriented Therapy (MABT) to Medication Treatment Benefits People With Opioid Use Disorder
https://www.nccih.nih.gov/research/research-results/adding-mindful-awareness-in-body-oriented-therapy-mabt-to-medication-treatment-benefits-people-with-opioid-use-disorder?nav=govd
Adding a mindfulness-based intervention to a standard treatment for opioid use disorder does not appear to alter substance use but does lead to positive changes in other areas that can help improve the standard treatment, according to a new study published in Mindfulness. The study was conducted by researchers at the University of Washington and partially funded by the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health through the NIH Helping to End Addiction Long-term® Initiative (NIH HEAL Initiative®).
Economic Stability Considerations for Service Members, Veterans, and their Families — Webinar Tuesday, January 21, 2–3:30 p.m. ET
https://prainc.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_SCBQaqgiQ-uiCFa9Dr7vvQ?utm_source=SAMHSA&utm_campaign=b8b2991986-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2024_12_03_09_59_COPY_01&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_-a4015b3fd1-167840245#/registration
Join us for an insightful and comprehensive webinar dedicated to addressing the economic stability of service members, Veterans, and their families (SMVF). According to the Blue Star Families Annual Survey, nearly 30 percent of non-retired post-9/11 Veterans reported unmet needs related to employment and career development, and 20 percent reported needs regarding housing services. Additional economic challenges mentioned were topics such as food insecurity, childcare, license portability, and employment for spouses. In general, economic stability is an issue not only for those who served but also those who are currently serving. This session will explore critical areas such as employment opportunities; financial resources; SSI/SSDI, Outreach, Access, and Recovery (SOAR) for Veterans; and housing solutions, providing valuable information and resources to support maintaining or achieving economic stability among the SMVF community. An opportunity for Q&A will follow the presentations, providing you with the chance to engage directly with the subject-matter experts.
White Mulberry Leaf
https://www.nccih.nih.gov/health/white-mulberry-leaf?nav=govd
Background
White mulberry is native to China but can be found throughout the world in temperate and tropical climates. In parts of Asia, white mulberry leaves have been used for tea, bean curd, and noodles. They have also been used in traditional Chinese medicine.
Currently, preparations from white mulberry leaves are sold as dietary supplements for controlling weight and blood glucose.
What Have We Learned?
Several studies suggest that white mulberry leaves may reduce elevated blood glucose levels, but some of the studies were preliminary or were not done in people.
What Do We Know About Safety?
White mulberry leaf has been used in studies lasting up to 12 weeks without serious harmful effects. The most common side effect is digestive upset.
Taking white mulberry leaf with diabetes medications might cause low blood sugar.
