Mitochondrial health is a cornerstone of overall wellness.

��When mitochondria aren’t functioning properly, the result is low energy, increased risk of disease, and feeling far from your best.�

That’s why improving mitochondrial function is a common focus across many therapies.

There are countless ways to support them, but here are four of the most effective:�

1. Reduce toxic load: Limiting exposure to pesticides, plastics, and heavy metals is key. In some cases, targeted detox protocols that support liver pathways, boost bile flow, or even promote weight loss may be needed.�

2. Increase antioxidants: Mitochondria are especially vulnerable to oxidative stress. Nutrient-rich foods with CoQ10, vitamin E, carnitine, glutathione, and alpha-lipoic acid provide crucial protection. Supplementation can be helpful in some cases with certain nutrients as well! �

3. Red light therapy: Mitochondria are designed to absorb red and near-infrared light. Sunrise, sunset, and red light devices all provide this powerful, restorative spectrum.�

4. Support the gut microbiome: A healthy gut produces compounds like short-chain fatty acids that encourage new mitochondria and strengthen existing ones. Dysbiosis, on the other hand, disrupts their function.�

Mitochondrial dysfunction often lies at the root of clusters of symptoms and many chronic conditions. The good news? There is so much you can do to help your mitochondria thrive — and in turn, help you feel your best�

Phosphatidylcholine (PC) is one of the most important building blocks of your body.

Found in every cell membrane, PC is essential for keeping your cells strong, flexible, and able to do their job.

It’s especially critical for the health of your intestines, liver, and brain.

PC supports cholesterol metabolism, protects nerve cells, and even helps maintain the protective lining of your gut and lungs.

As we age, or when chronic illness is present, PC levels in our cell membranes decline.

This loss makes it easier for toxins like pesticides and heavy metals to accumulate and harder for cells to function at their best.

IV therapy with phosphatidylcholine helps restore healthy cell membranes and may:

✔️ Improve cholesterol balance
✔️ Support detoxification and liver health
✔️ Enhance brain function and protect cognition
✔️ Reduce inflammation in the digestive tract

In short: PC is a cornerstone of cellular health - and restoring it can unlock benefits that ripple across your entire body.

Why do some women breeze through menopause while others struggle?

Menopause is known for symptoms like weight gain, mood swings, low libido, poor sleep, hot flashes, and night sweats. But the intensity of these symptoms varies widely- and research is starting to show why.

Several modifiable factors influence how the body adapts to this hormonal transition- here’s a few:

🧬 Muscle Mass: Women begin losing muscle in their 30s, with up to 50% lost by their 70s (PMID: 22955023). This matters because muscle supports insulin sensitivity, weight regulation, and even reduces menopause symptoms like hot flashes. Strength training and prioritizing protein are proven ways to protect and build muscle at every age.

🩸 Blood Sugar Regulation: As estrogen declines, so does insulin sensitivity- making blood sugar harder to control. Stabilizing blood sugar may reduce hot flashes, support mood, and help prevent weight gain.

😣Stress: Chronic stress and elevated cortisol are linked to more severe menopause symptoms. Estrogen naturally helps buffer stress, so when it declines, the impact of stress can be amplified. Addressing stress through nutrition, lifestyle, and nervous system support can significantly improve the experience of menopause.

You can’t avoid menopause, but you can influence how your body moves through it.

Let us help you create a personalized, evidence-based plan to thrive through this transition.

Sleep is a powerful regulator of weight.

If you’ve tried everything, feel lost, or are tired of restricting yourself- your sleep may be the missing piece.

The link between short sleep duration and weight gain is well established.

Weight gain is especially associated with consistently getting less than 5 hours of sleep per night- but it is seen with anything less than 7 hours

On the flip side, getting 7+ hours of quality sleep can help reverse the metabolic changes that contribute to weight gain.

Here’s how sleep impacts weight:

♦︎Lack of sleep increases hunger and cravings—especially for high-calorie, processed foods
♦︎It throws off hormones like leptin (satiety) and ghrelin (hunger), making it harder to regulate appetite
♦︎It can reduce the number of calories your body burns at rest

The type of calories craved and consumed when sleep-deprived may be just as important as the total amount.

If you’re struggling with sleep, reach out to our clinic, there’s a lot we can do to help you get the rest you need.

Box Breathing: The Simple Technique with Powerful Benefits

Used by Navy SEALs, athletes, and high performers.... and just as effective for the average person navigating daily stress, box breathing is a simple yet powerful way to reset your body and mind. This breathwork technique calms the autonomic nervous system, shifting you out of fight-or-flight mode and into a relaxed, parasympathetic state.

Just a few minutes a day can lower your heart rate and body temperature, sharpen focus, and help regulate stress more effectively over time.

✨ Why try it?
– Improves focus and mental clarity
– Reduces stress and anxious thoughts
– Supports emotional regulation and mood
– Enhances your body’s long-term stress resilience

Slow, mindful breaths don’t just feel good... they actually influence genes related to inflammation, energy, and insulin balance. Whether you're new to mindfulness or just looking for a quick mental reset, box breathing is a great place to start.

Have you tried it before?

When it comes to reaching a healthy, feel-good weight, there’s a lot more to consider than just what you eat, how you eat matters too. And mindful eating is often the missing piece.

A recent meta-analysis found that mindful eating practices can reduce BMI and waist circumference- with results comparable to conventional diet interventions. Not better, not worse, but equally effective.

Why does this matter? Because mindful eating is a sustainable approach that helps you tune into your body’s natural hunger and fullness cues. It also reduces stress while eating, supports better digestion, and can positively influence the hormones involved in fat metabolism and storage.

✨ Our nutritionist Emily can help you address both what and how you eat, for results that last.

🧪 Micronutrient deficiencies are shockingly common in people with type 2 diabetes.

A recent meta-analysis of 127 studies (over 52,000 participants!) found that 45% of individuals with T2D were deficient in at least one essential vitamin or mineral.

The most common deficiencies?
→ Vitamin D (60%)
→ Magnesium (42%)
→ Iron (28%)
→ Vitamin B12 (22%)

Micronutrients play a critical role in insulin function, glucose metabolism, and inflammation - making it essential to assess and support nutritional status in metabolic conditions like T2D.

Ozone therapy comes in several powerful forms- each offering unique benefits depending on your needs.

✨ IV ozone involves gently infusing ozonated blood back into the body to support immune health, energy, and detoxification.
✨ Limb bagging applies ozone topically to a specific area (like an arm or leg) to support wound healing, infections, and circulation.
✨ Injections can target joints or muscles for pain relief and tissue repair.
✨ Hyperbaric ozone (10-pass) delivers higher concentrations of ozone under pressure for a deep systemic reset, often used for chronic infections, fatigue, or inflammation.
