Dear Readers,

I am delighted to present to you the May 2023 issue of The Color of Wellness Magazine, dedicated to the crucial topic of health equity through health education. Our mission is to empower black families to live well by providing patient education and resources tailored to their unique needs and experiences. In this issue, we continue to fulfill our commitment by bringing you insightful articles written by black nurses who possess the knowledge, empathy, and deep belief in the total well-being of families of color.

At The Color of Wellness Magazine, we believe that knowledge is power, and our dedicated team of black nurses strives to equip our readers with the information and tools they need to make informed decisions about their health. By sharing their expertise and experiences, our writers bring context and expand the experiences that teach families from the lens of caring nurses. It is through this lens that we make history and drive positive change in the lives of our readers.

In this month’s issue, we have curated a selection of powerful articles that cover a range of topics crucial to the well-being of black families. Our focus areas include sexual health, colon health, meat alternatives, mental health awareness month, and processed foods. Let me give you a glimpse of the insightful articles you will find within these pages.

Sexual Health: Our writers delve into the important topic of sexual health, exploring issues such as reproductive health, contraception, and sexually transmitted infections. By addressing these subjects, we aim to provide knowledge and promote healthy choices that will empower individuals and strengthen relationships.

By sharing this information, we hope to raise awareness and encourage proactive steps towards maintaining a healthy digestive system.

Meat Alternatives: As the world becomes increasingly conscious of the impact of our dietary choices on our health and the environment, our writers explore the growing popularity of meat alternatives. They provide guidance on incorporating these alternatives into your diet and share the benefits they offer for both personal well-being and sustainability.

Mental Health Awareness Month: May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and we take this opportunity to focus on the mental well-being of black families.
