Most practitioners run labs. Very few actually understand them.

They know the reference ranges.

They can tell you what’s “high” and what’s “low.”
But they can’t explain why the patient still feels awful when everything looks “normal.”

I know, because I used to be there too.
We’re taught how to read markers.

We are not taught how they connect.
We are not taught membrane dynamics.

We are not taught lipid signaling.

We are not taught how cellular structure dictates whether nutrients even get into the cell.

So patients keep getting protocols. More supplements. More interventions. More confusion.

And the root issue is missed entirely.

Red blood cell fatty acids testing change everything about how you interpret labs.

Inflammation, hormones, detox capacity, neurological symptoms, resilience, aging, chronic fatigue, stubborn cases that don’t respond.

It’s not that you’re a bad practitioner.
It’s that no one ever taught you the foundation.

If you’ve felt that quiet frustration of knowing something is missing in your clinical understanding,
you’re not wrong.

Comment lipids and I’ll show you the missing layer of interpretation.

Let’s be real - most of us aren’t collecting water from a mountain spring.

But that doesn’t mean we’re stuck drinking stagnant water either.

You can restore movement to water in your own home using simple tools like the Mayu Swirl. Motion matters. Flow matters. (Also imprint it with a prayer to really elevate your water. 😉)

Water in nature is always moving, spiraling, circulating, interacting with its environment. Tap water has lost that dynamic state.

Bringing movement back is one small, practical way to make water more biologically compatible with the body.

Ready to bring movement back? Comment “movement” 😘

A healthy tan isn’t damage.
It’s healthy adaptation.

Melanin is NOT just pigment-it’s a biological defense system. Melanin absorbs and dissipates UV light, quenches free radicals, is a source of electrons, protects from nnEMF, binds metals, helps regulate inflammation in the skin and throughout your entire body…. The list of benefits is long.

Your body didn’t evolve fearing the sun. It evolved under it.

If you want to learn the truth about health, and how to build resilience -I’ll show you how to build real resilience in a modern world.

Comment “resilient” 🤓❤️

Stop doing this!!!!

We need to stop teaching people that symptoms mean detox or that feeling worse means you’re healing.
A regulated, coherent body does not need to scream to repair itself.
Healing happens when there is flow, communication, and physiological safety- not distress.

If you’re exhausted by protocols that make you feel worse and call it “progress,” you’re right to question them. I would be too.
And there is another way- one that supports true healing rather than pushing your system further into dysregulation.

This is about restoring coherence, not tolerating harm.

And my mission is to teach it to you. Drop a “restore” to get out of the protocol rat race and into a space that teaches health.

I’ve been playing with something simple lately, and it feels worth sharing.

I’m using castor oil with gentle facial fascia work to help soften fine lines - not because I’m chasing youth, but because skin is living tissue.

It responds to hydration, movement, and fluid flow.
Castor oil is heavy, yes.

That’s actually why I love it.
It seals in moisture, calms the tissue, and supports lymphatic movement instead of stimulating or stripping the skin.

Most people only think of it as a “pack,” but I use it topically all the time.I’ve also started mixing in a little aloe when my skin wants more water than oil - especially after sun or a long day.

Oil provides the seal, aloe brings the hydration. Together they make the tissue feel softer and more responsive.

And the fascia piece matters. Skin doesn’t age in isolation. When the tissue underneath is restricted, dehydrated, or stagnant, it shows on the surface. Gentle movement changes that.
This isn’t about fixing your face. You are beautiful the way you are. But I want you to be healthy and beautiful. 😉
It’s about supporting tissue the way living systems actually respond.
And this- is exactly what I teach. Who’s ready to learn this?
For the people who are- the mitochondrial restoration program is calling you. Comment “ready” to take the step into learning how to restore your own health.

The idea that you can heal a depleted system by aggressively using binders is one of the most misunderstood concepts in modern functional medicine.
Yes - in an acute toxic exposure, binders can be an appropriate, short-term tool.
But they are not a strategy for rebuilding health.
Bile acids are not benign waste products.
They are essential signaling molecules.
They are required to - absorb the fats and fat-soluble nutrients that repair cell membranes, regulate microbial balance, support mitochondrial and peroxisomal function, maintain metabolic and hormonal signaling.

When you chronically bind bile, you don’t create healing -you create further depletion.

A system cannot restore itself without the very molecules that coordinate repair.

This is the difference between intervention and restoration.
I’m not here to give you more protocols, hacks, or shortcuts.

I’m here to teach you the roadmap -how biology actually rebuilds when flow, signaling, and coherence are respected.

Healing isn’t about forcing the body to comply.
It’s about giving the system what it needs to do what it was designed to do.

If you’re tied of shortcuts and ready for healing - comment “HEAL”

When I was extremely unwell, I was “diagnosed” with every functional-medicine flavour of the week. 🫣

Heavy metals.
Chronic infections.
CIRS.
Even celiac disease (which I do not have. Some doctors like to make s**t up to seem ahead of the curve)

Doctors love labels. Especially when the system they learnt doesn’t understand the terrain.

The truth is, I didn’t have those things as root causes.

What I did have was this:
Circadian dysregulation
A profound lack of sunlight
No grounding
A completely dysregulated nervous system -I was living in constant sympathetic overdrive
Dysfunctional breathing
And the belief that healing had to come from outside of me.

Supplements.
IVs.
Chelation.
Mold detoxes.

All the expensive, impressive functional-medicine interventions.

What did I actually need?

I needed to give my body what every living system requires to be healthy.

I needed to stop living in an EMF-saturated condo that was microwaving me around the clock.
I needed sunlight on my skin and in my eyes.
I needed to watch the sunrise.
I needed darkness at night.
I needed to calm my nervous system.
I needed to breathe properly.
I needed to remove the onslaught of artificial light exposure that I was bathing in.

And yes - I needed to address mold.
But mold was not the root cause.

I was living like a caged animal.
And caged animals get sick.

This is my message to you-
You don’t need more things to heal.
You don’t need another supplement, protocol, or trendy diagnosis.

You need to learn health.
How biology actually works.
How environment shapes physiology.
How light, water, magnetism, lipids, and safety signals regulate your cells.
And the good news?

There is a roadmap.

It’s the map that helped me restore my health and it’s the same framework that has helped hundreds of others reclaim theirs.

It’s here for you if you want it. Comment “want it” if you’re ready to stop wasting time and money and start getting your health and life back.

There are still people who hold “science” in the highest regard- and I struggle to understand why.
Real science was never meant to be protected from questioning. As Buckminster Fuller said, when a system is no longer serving life, you don’t fix it - you redesign it.

When papers are published that raise serious safety signals or methodological concerns, and those findings are ignored, minimized, or never discussed - while the same interventions continue to be universally recommended - we should pause.
I am for pro-scientific integrity. And I hope you are too.
Science without transparency, debate, and accountability isn’t science.

No one should be comfortable with a system that discourages scrutiny, silences dissent, or prioritizes speed, profit, or narrative over long-term human health.

If we truly care about health, we must be willing to question the structures claiming to protect it.

I will be writing more on this… to grab the article, comment “article”

I’ll be the guinea pig here. I spend 10-12 hours in the sun every single day and I feel better than I have in my entire life.

I say this a lot, and I’ll say it again- do the opposite of what you’ve been told, and you’ll often be far better off.

Since following the circadian principles I teach, my skin has improved - not worsened.

You know that when I was 34, I started experiencing severe, accelerated skin aging. Every time I looked in the mirror, I reached for another oil, cream, or product, trying to stop what felt like rapid decline.

What I didn’t understand then was this- my skin was reflecting my mitochondrial health.

And no amount of products was ever going to fix a cellular problem.

So listen - instead of getting swept up in products, potions, supplements, and protocols that often age you faster, try giving your body what it was designed to receive. Then watch how your skin responds.

And yes - sunlight is one of those things.
Your skin needs it.

We often give lip service to the idea that our thoughts and emotions affect our health. But when you truly understand the body as energy, as frequency, something shifts.

You become aware that your inner state isn’t secondary - it is the environment your cells live in. One of coherence and communication… or one of chronic disarray.

After more than fourteen years of working with people in deeply vulnerable places, I can often feel within moments whether healing is possible.

Not because of a diagnosis - but because of how someone speaks about their body, their life, their symptoms.

That language tells me whether the terrain is open or closed. Of course, people can change.

Brains can rewire. Perspectives can change. I believe that wholeheartedly. But we cannot heal in the same internal environment that made us unwell.

Your mental framing matters more than you think.

Your capacity to re-interpret stress, to stay hopeful, to see meaning instead of punishment - this becomes the soil in which healing either takes root or cannot.

Most symptoms don’t arrive randomly. They are signals. Invitations to listen, to course-correct, to live differently.

My hope for you is this, that no matter what you face, you remember the miracle of being alive, and that you cultivate the resilience to stay curious instead of afraid.

When you meet your body with awareness rather than opposition, healing becomes something you participate in - not something you wait for.

If you’re ready for this level of understanding, and ready to be an active participant in your health, comment HEALTH.
