Met Russell Brunson and Todd Dickerson at Funnel Hacking Live in Las Vegas.

They built ClickFunnels to help entrepreneurs scale fast and serve more people.

Hearing their story and seeing 5,000 founders in one room was powerful.

I’m taking what I learned back to Greenland Medical.

Time to level up how we serve patients, grow our impact, and build smarter systems.

Microplastics aren’t just in the ocean; they’re in our food, water, and even our brains.

A 2024 study showed they can cross the blood-brain barrier, trigger inflammation, and may be linked to memory issues.

Scary? Yes. But here’s the good news: you can lower your exposure. Swap single-use plastics, filter your water, cook with glass or stainless steel, choose natural fibers, and never heat food in plastic.

Small changes protect both your brain and the planet.

Pink salt, gray salt, sea salt, they look fancy, but here’s the truth: they’re almost identical to plain table salt.

The trace minerals? Too tiny to make a real difference. What actually matters is your overall sodium intake, because too much can raise blood pressure and strain your kidneys. Plus, many of these salts don’t contain iodine, which your thyroid needs.

So enjoy the flavor and texture, but don’t be fooled into thinking they’re healthier.

Why Bread Hooks Your Brain

• Gluten releases compounds that act on your brain’s opioid receptors and create comfort-seeking cravings.
• White bread spikes blood sugar, triggers dopamine, then causes a crash that leaves you wanting more.
• This double hit of opioid-like effects plus sugar swings can mimic addictive patterns.
• Regular gluten intake is linked to brain fog, low mood, inflammation, and overeating.
• Some people feel sharper and more energised after even a short break from gluten.

The 3 Group Rule for Clean Eating 🥦🍗🥑

Build your meals around:

1.Colorful plants like vegetables and fruits for vitamins, minerals, and fiber
2. Lean proteins such as fish, chicken, eggs, and beans to repair your body and keep you full
3. Healthy fats from avocados, olive oil, and nuts to support your brain and hormones

Fill most of your plate with these and you’ll cover your nutritional needs while pushing out less healthy options. Want to learn more? Send me a DM!

Chronic fatigue isn’t usually caused by just one thing, and that’s why chasing a single answer often keeps people stuck.

Sleep, hormones, gut health, immunity, stress, and pain all interact. Real healing comes when you address the whole picture with a layered, structured plan that restores balance over time.

That’s how functional medicine helps people finally move forward.

Why Butter Raises Cholesterol More Than Cream

• Butter and cream both come from milk and have similar saturated fat.
• Butter raises LDL, the “bad” cholesterol, more strongly than cream.
• Cream keeps its natural fat membrane intact, which slows fat absorption and helps protect blood lipids.
• Butter loses this membrane during churning, so the liver gets a stronger cholesterol signal.
• Research shows cream and even cheese affect cholesterol less than butter.

⚠️ MYTH: “Inflammation is only bad if it causes pain.”

✅ FACT: Chronic inflammation can damage your brain, gut, and hormones long before pain ever shows up.

A lot of people think: “If it doesn’t hurt, it’s not a problem.” But chronic inflammation can work silently for years, disrupting your health in ways you don’t even realise.

As a Functional Medicine practitioner, I help people:

✔️ Identify hidden sources of inflammation (like food sensitivities, gut imbalances, chronic infections, stress)
✔️ Use targeted testing to see what’s really going on in the body
✔️ Personalise nutrition and lifestyle changes to reduce inflammation at the root
✔️ Support brain, gut, and hormone health holistically—not just suppress symptoms

If you’re struggling with low energy, mood swings, gut issues, or unexplained symptoms, inflammation might be playing a bigger role than you think. If this resonates with you, I’d be happy to talk more about how I can help.

Can Your Smartwatch Detect an Illness First? ⌚

In some cases, yes.

Modern wearables track your heart rate, sleep, and blood oxygen 24/7. This constant monitoring can sometimes catch changes before you notice symptoms.

A sudden rise in resting heart rate or irregular heartbeat could signal stress, illness, or a heart rhythm problem like atrial fibrillation. Some people have sought care sooner because their smartwatch flagged something unusual.

It’s not perfect, but it adds an extra layer of early warning. Want to learn more? Send me a DM!

Anxiety doesn’t always start in the mind, it can start in the gut.

A client came to me with panic attacks, sleepless nights, and meds that weren’t working. Once we uncovered gut imbalances, nutrient deficiencies, and stress triggers, everything changed.

Three months later, his anxiety had dropped, sleep was restored, and he no longer needed meds. The gut-brain connection is powerful, and often overlooked.

Your Brain Depends on Water

• Your brain is 75% water. A 1–2% drop hurts memory, focus, and decision-making.
• Dehydration reduces blood flow, disrupts electrolytes, and raises stress hormones.
• Signs include headaches, brain fog, irritability, and slower reactions.
• Aim for 2–3 litres daily, sip often, eat water-rich foods, and balance coffee or alcohol with water.
• For older adults, even mild dehydration can cause confusion or falls.
