From hormones to weight loss, search the Library for specific topics.
Loving your Liver
Taking care of your liver is essential for overall health, as it's responsible for detoxifying your body, processing nutrients, and supporting your metabolism.
Dropping Acid
About 20% -25% of Americans have issues with acid reflux. Correcting this problem is fairly easy with small consistent adjustments to diet and lifestyle.
Healthy Skin
Keeping your skin healthy requires a combination of good nutrition, proper skincare, and lifestyle habits.
Sugar and the Flu
There is a deep connection between seasonal illnesses with the changing habits and foods of the season.
Nourishment Wins
Friends, family, colleagues and clients will tell me how drained they are. It takes just a few questions to realize the root cause is detoxing from either a Doctor’s ad, a TikTok ad, or even a Functional Medicine Doctor’s protocol.
Permanent Weight Loss
In the United States, we spend more dollars on diet fads while being SIMULTANEOUSLY the sickest and fattest modern nation for that investment.
Gut Health Hacks
The reason I love broths and stocks for healing above any supplement, is that even the sickest clients are able to start here without trouble.
Foods for the Blues
Treating depression, just like anything else can vary widely between people, but there are basic nutrients trusted to support any mental health issue.
Battling the Blues
For most of my life, like clockwork, I fell into case of the blues in winter. We call this Seasonal Affective Disorder, or Seasonal Depression.
Why Am I Itchy?
With the dryness of winter, I am feeling a little itchy. To deal with this, I am getting a little more sleep, and I am more mindful of what I eat.
Dry January
Taking a break from alcohol reduces liver fat, inflammation, and the risk of liver disease. Less alcohol improves your body's hydration and energy levels.
Practical Resolutions
You either are one of those people who excitedly set New Year’s Resolutions, or, like me, passionately reject the idea.
Cold Plunging
Many of my friends routinely practice the habit of cold plunging. Immersing in cold water for a limited time has an equal number of health claims and warnings.
The Buddy System
With the New Year approaching, but not quite here yet, it’s a good time to chat about the science of using the buddy system for mastering goals and habits.
Carb Cycling
Worried about the 12 pounds of Christmas? I have some tips for you to strategize your way thru the parties and still watch your waistline!
Party Hacks
Thanksgiving has always been my favorite holiday. No pressure of gifts, just seeing family and cooking together. For some, it can bring up a variety of food-related challenges.
