We have a few spots left for those who want more out of their healthcare.

You don't want to wait on this one.

3 DAYS LEFT TO SIGN UP FOR REBEL METABOLIC

This group weight loss support program is nothing like you've ever experienced before.
thyroid.nd and I have had the privilege of collaborating with .md to help bring you science backed weight loss for rule breaker and change makers

More likely than not, you've been down this road more times than you'd like to admit. Maybe it started with a spark of excitement - a new plan. The perfectly organized grocery list the hope that this time it would be different.

At first, the weight might have budged and for a while you felt like you were winning a battle, but then life crept in and the numbers on the scale stalled, the motivation failed and the old habits quietly returned.

Before you knew it, you were right back to where you began only more frustrated and wondering why lasting change always feels out of reach.

It's not because you lack discipline and willpower. The truth is that most traditional weight loss programs are built around a narrow formula: eat less, move more, repeat.

They rarely consider the complex biology that drives hunger, metabolism, and hormones, or the emotional patterns, stress and real life obstacles that shape your choices daily. Quick fixes and rigid meal plans might produce short-term results, but they don't address the deeper reasons. Weight gain happens in the first place.

This program is looking to disrupt all of the above. This is not your typical weight loss program. This will not be a weight watchers meeting in which you get on a scale weekly and talk about your food points.

If you are looking to revolutionize your health and are prepared to put in the hard work, we want you to join us in Rebel Metabolic.

✨ 3 Nutrition Needs for Someone on a GLP-1 Inhibitor aka Ozempic & Wegovy 💉

GLP-1 inhibitors like Ozempic and Wegovy have surged in popularity for managing type 2 diabetes and supporting weight loss. While these medications can be effective, they also impact digestion and appetite — making nutrition a critical piece of the puzzle. Here are the top 3 nutritional needs for those on GLP-1 medications, and how naturopathic medicine can help.

1. Protein Intake for Muscle Preservation 💪💪💪

GLP-1 inhibitors suppress appetite, which often leads to reduced food intake. This can unintentionally cause muscle loss. Prioritizing high-quality protein (like eggs, legumes, fish, and lean meats) throughout the day supports metabolism, energy, and long-term weight management.

2. Fiber for Healthy Digestion 🫘🦠💩

Slowed gastric emptying is a known side effect of GLP-1s, which can lead to constipation and bloating. Soluble fiber (from oats, chia seeds, flax, and cooked veggies) helps support regularity and feed beneficial gut bacteria. Adequate hydration is essential too.

3. Micronutrient Repletion 🧐🩸📋

With smaller portions and altered digestion, patients may fall short on key nutrients like B12, magnesium, and iron. A naturopathic doctor (ND) can assess for deficiencies and recommend supportive supplementation or food-based strategies.

Why Naturopathic Medicine Is a Great Fit ✨🩺

Naturopathic doctors take a holistic, individualized approach to care — ideal for people navigating medication-related changes. NDs can guide patients in creating sustainable nutrition and lifestyle habits, support digestive health, and address any side effects naturally. They also understand how to work alongside conventional medications to optimize outcomes safely.

If you're using a GLP-1 inhibitor and want support beyond the prescription, naturopathic medicine offers the whole-person care you deserve — grounded in science, rooted in nourishment, and designed to help you thrive.

If you are looking for adjunct supports for managing your IBS, you should definitely consider using hypnotherapy to help calm the mind and body.

Hypnotherapy for IBS has nearly 40 years of published peer-reviewed research to support it as one of the most effective adjunct treatments. Research has shown that a series of gut-directed hypnotherapy sessions can effectively reduce symptoms by at least 50% in up to 76% of patients. These results are also long lasting, as a study in 2003 found that 81% of the patients who responded to hypnotherapy were still enjoying the improvements up to 5 years later.

🧠🌱 Optimizing the function of your enteric nervous system:

(1) Dietary Changes:
🔹Increase fiber intake to help regulate bowel movements and ease constipation or diarrhea.
🔹Limit trigger foods that exacerbate your IBS symptoms, such as certain types of carbohydrates (FODMAPs), spicy foods, caffeine, and alcohol.
🔹Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day.

(2) Manage Stress:
🔹Practice relaxation techniques like stress-reducing activities (i.e. meditation, deep breathing exercises, yoga, or mindfulness practices).
🔹Get regular exercise like walking, swimming, or yoga to promote relaxation and improve overall well-being.

(3) Support Gut Health:
🔹Consume probiotics from foods or supplements to help promote a healthy balance of gut bacteria.
🔹Eat fermented foods like kimchi, miso, or kombucha into your diet to support gut microbiota diversity and function.
🔹Consider prebiotics foods to provide nourishment for beneficial gut bacteria.

(4) Stay Regular:
🔹Establish a regular routine: Aim to eat meals at consistent times each day and make time for regular bowel movements to help regulate your digestive system.
🔹Listen to your body: Pay attention to your body's signals and respond accordingly to avoid straining during bowel movements and promote healthy digestion.

(5) Seek Professional Support:
🔹Consult a naturopathic doctor to develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs and preferences.
🔹Explore therapy options: Consider cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) or other psychological therapies to address underlying stress, anxiety, or depression that may contribute to IBS symptoms.

Hey, IBS Warriors! 🌟 Ever heard of the Gut-Brain Connection? 🤔 Let's break it down!

The Gut-Brain Connection is a bidirectional communication network linking the gastrointestinal tract (the gut) with the central nervous system (the brain). This axis involves complex interactions between the gut microbiota, immune system, endocrine system, and neural pathways. Essentially, it's the two-way highway through which signals travel between the gut and the brain, influencing various physiological and psychological processes.

Here's how it works:

1. Gut to Brain: Signals originating in the gut, such as nutrient levels, hormones, and microbial metabolites, can influence brain function and behavior. For example, the gut microbiota produce neurotransmitters and metabolites that can affect mood, cognition, and stress responses.

2. Brain to Gut: Conversely, the brain can send signals to the gut, affecting its function and health. Emotions, stress, and psychological states can modulate gut motility, secretion, and permeability. This can lead to gastrointestinal symptoms like nausea, bloating, or altered bowel habits.

Understanding the gut-brain axis is crucial for comprehending conditions like Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), where disturbances in this communication system can contribute to gastrointestinal symptoms as well as affect mental health. By recognizing the interplay between the gut and the brain, individuals can implement strategies to support both gut and mental well-being, such as adopting a healthy diet, managing stress, and promoting a balanced gut microbiome.
