🧘‍♀️Reflective Exercise for Fall

The fall season is about change.

Letting go.

So, what do you want to let go of?

Make this your journal prompt the next time you find yourself in the leafy shadows of a tree or cozying up on the couch with a cup of tea.

Reflect on what it is you want to release.

So you can welcome new growth.

📚Research Alert!

Sure, the caffeine in coffee helps us feel more alert and focused.

But a new study shows there’s more to coffee’s brain-boosting effects than just caffeine.

In the study, healthy adults were given either coffee or caffeinated water, and researchers measured their brain activity with functional MRI scans.

Both groups showed changes in brain activity related to being more ready to engage in tasks. But coffee also boosted activity in areas of the brain related to working memory, cognitive control, and goal-directed behavior.

☕ Basically, the coffee made people even more ready to be attentive and responsive than caffeine alone.

This is not so different from what we commonly see in studies on whole food or herbs 👉👉👉 The whole is more than the sum of its parts.

Still not convinced that gut health matters?

New research, published in Jama Dermatology, found significant differences in gut microbiome 🦠 profiles between people who had melanoma and who did not. There were also differences between those who had early and later stage disease.

Conventional healthcare likes to separate the skin from the gut from the brain etc., but evidence keeps piling up that all of these things relate AND that the microbiome could very well be at the center of it all.

➡️ Whether we’re dealing with a skin issue, hormonal changes, or emotional concerns…one core strategy in functional medicine is to help everyone optimize gut and microbiome health.

This study 👆 is just more confirmation of why.

🌟 Exciting Research 🌟

One of the most common questions people ask me is: Should I take a probiotic?

Probiotics are beneficial bacteria to populate the gut microbiome, and a general trend we see in research is that a more diverse microbiome (more variety of microorganisms) is associated with better health.

But a new study has found yet another way to improve the microbiome:

Weight loss.

Regardless of whether people followed intermittent fasting or calorie restriction, weight loss led to more diversity of the microbiome AND (another sign of better health) changes in DNA methylation.

Why am I so excited by this?

Because it shows how resilient the body is.

When we make changes in a positive direction toward health, our bodies benefit in ways we cannot even see and may never even know.

Research Update!

If you’ve been following along my posts about mitochondria, you already know they are essential for energy & metabolism.

Here’s a new research review that links mitochondrial health to insulin resistance, high cholesterol, obesity, and…

☠️ environmental toxins ☠️

It goes like this:

Toxic exposures create free radicals in the body → which damage mitochondria → which disrupts metabolic health.

So, what can we do?

We can start by minimizing our exposure to chemicals in everyday products, like plastics, cosmetics, cleaning supplies, and air fresheners.

Then we can boost up our detox abilities by drinking lots of water, eating lots of veggies, and sweating.

And when you’re ready to really kick metabolic issues to the curb, we’re here to help.

Fall Superfoods to Stock in Your Kitchen ⬇️

Fall is the time to cozy up with some comfort foods AND start supporting your immune function while you’re at it…

…and what better way than with superfoods?

🎃 Pumpkins & Squash
Pumpkins are not just for carving! They’re packed with beta-carotene, vitamin C, and fiber. This is also the season for all varieties of squash, like butternut and acorn squash too.

🍏 Apples & Pears
Also a good source of vitamin C and fiber, these fruits have a lower glycemic index that sweeter fruits, like bananas or grapes.

🥬 Kale & Greens
Fall is a great time to harvest kale and other dark green leafy vegetables that are rich in vitamin K, vitamin C, and beta-carotene.

🥣 Turmeric & Ginger
If you’re feeling a chill in the air, warm up with these antioxidant-rich spices. Perfect for soups, stir-fries, and even lattes!

Are any of these your fall faves?

Let’s talk about breast health ⬇️

October is month, but while everyone is talking about screenings and early detection, I want to talk about PREVENTION.

Real prevention is about the lifestyle choices we make every day. Here are 3 to think about:

1️⃣ Avoid Hormone-Disrupting Chemicals
Chemicals that mimic estrogen are commonly in lotions (parabens), plastics (phthalates), pesticides (glyphosate), and even cash register receipts (BPA).

2️⃣ Eat the Rainbow
Colorful fruits, veggies, and spices are rich in antioxidants to support breast health. Some foods that are especially beneficial for breast health include broccoli, mushrooms, and turmeric.

3️⃣ Reduce Alcohol
Alcohol can increase levels of estrogen. Compared to women who don't drink at all, women who have three alcoholic drinks per week have a 15% higher risk of breast cancer.

Breast health is not only an issue for women. Men and women alike can benefit from these suggestions.

3 Things You Can Do to Boost Mitochondrial Function 🙌

Better mitochondrial function means a better metabolism, more energy, clearer focus, and healthier aging.

How can we give our mitochondria a boost?

1️⃣ High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT means exercising at high intensity for brief bursts)

2️⃣ Intermittent Fasting (restricting your eating to a timed window each day)

3️⃣ Cold Exposure (like a cold plunge or cold shower)

Do you already do any of these things? Did you know they are improving your health on a deep and cellular level?
