July 2024 — What we published and why it matters

Three pieces landed on PharmacyRxWorld in July 2024 that offer useful, concrete info: a practical guide to glutathione, a look at Visible’s phone‑themed event #Phonetopia, and an examination of how irbesartan + hydrochlorothiazide may affect bone health. Each article gives clear takeaways you can use right away — from diet and supplement tips to what to watch for if you take blood‑pressure meds.

Glutathione: simple steps to boost it

The glutathione guide breaks down what this “master antioxidant” does and how to raise levels naturally. Quick wins: eat sulfur‑rich foods (garlic, onions, cruciferous veggies), add whey or lean proteins for building blocks, get regular exercise, and prioritize sleep. The post also covers supplement options — oral glutathione, liposomal forms, and precursors like N‑acetylcysteine — and why you should talk to a clinician before starting supplements, especially if you’re on medication or pregnant.

Practical tip: try a week of extra cruciferous veggies and one protein‑rich smoothie with spinach and whey to see if digestion and energy feel better. If you consider supplements, ask your pharmacist about interactions and proper dosing.

Visible’s #Phonetopia: more than a gimmick

Visible turned phones into an obstacle course this month to highlight how people interact with wireless services. The event mixes playful stalls — like “slide into DMs” or “dodge spam calls” — with demos of simple features and plan perks. It’s useful if you want a hands‑on way to compare carriers without reading pages of fine print.

If you’re curious: follow the hashtag to catch pop‑up dates and watch short clips to learn which plan features matter to you (data limits, hotspot use, customer service). Consider attending if you want a quick, visual way to compare real‑world behavior on different plans.

The Irbesartan + hydrochlorothiazide piece looks at bone health and blood‑pressure meds. Thiazide diuretics can reduce calcium loss in urine, which may help bone density; angiotensin receptor blockers like irbesartan show mixed results in studies. The article recommends monitoring bone density when risk factors exist, optimizing calcium and vitamin D, and keeping up weight‑bearing exercise.

Actionable advice: if you take irbesartan‑HCTZ and are over 50 or have other risk factors, ask your clinician about a DEXA scan and basic labs. Small changes — a daily walk and consistent vitamin D — can make a difference while you sort medication plans with your doctor.
