As the days grow shorter and colder, many people notice a stronger urge to sleep longer and more deeply. This is not just a matter of feeling lazy or unmotivated. Instead, it reflects a natural biological response to seasonal changes in daylight.

During winter, reduced sunlight increases melatonin production, which influences our circadian rhythms and leads to longer, deeper REM sleep.

This phenomenon, sometimes called "winter hibernation," is a gentle adjustment rather than true hibernation. Many individuals find themselves sleeping an extra one to two hours each night, which supports better rest and mood.

Sleep is not just a passive state but a vital process that supports every aspect of health. Winter sleep patterns reflect our body's wisdom in adapting to seasonal changes. By understanding and respecting these natural rhythms, we can improve our rest, mood, and overall well-being.

Pro Health Functional Medicine emphasizes the importance of diet in managing autoimmune conditions.

Some recent studies have linked multiple autoimmune disorders and symptom relief to gluten consumption / elimination.

In addition to Celiac Disease other conditions included:

• multiple sclerosis
• lupus
• rheumatoid arthritis
• type 1 diabetes

At Pro Health we understand that autoimmune disorders result from a complex interplay of genetic and environmental factors, with diet being a crucial component.

For patients experiencing persistent symptoms, reducing gluten through an elimination diet may be a beneficial approach.

In addition to medical treatment, our patients work closely with nutritionists to tailor their dietary plans, helping to address the environmental triggers that may contribute to their condition.
