Weight Loss Resistance & Adrenal Dysfunction: What Your Body Is Really Telling You

Let’s clear something up right away:
If you’re doing “all the right things” and the weight won’t budge, your body isn’t failing you — it’s protecting you.

We see this all the time in our clinic.
You try keto. You cut calories. You exercise harder.
And instead of feeling better, you stall, gain weight, or feel exhausted and inflamed.

Here’s what most people don’t understand:
Weight loss resistance is often an adrenal problem — not a willpower problem.

Your adrenals regulate cortisol, your primary stress hormone. When cortisol stays too high for too long — or crashes after prolonged stress — your body shifts into survival mode.
In survival mode, your body will:
• Hold onto fat
• Slow metabolism
• Suppress thyroid function
• Disrupt s*x hormones
• Make weight loss feel nearly impossible

This is why keto isn’t a “weight loss diet.”
Keto is a metabolic state, meant to be used strategically — not forever.
If you lose weight one way and then stall, that’s your body communicating:
“I need diversity.”
“I need safety.”
“I need recovery.”

For many people — especially women — healing looks like:
• Cycling nutrition instead of staying low-carb long term
• Eating enough calories to signal safety
• Reducing stress on the nervous system
• Addressing toxicity stored in fat cells

Here’s something most people never hear:
When you lose fat, toxins are released.
If detox pathways aren’t supported, the body resists letting go.

This is why we don’t chase weight.
We chase adaptation, hormone balance, detox capacity, and nervous system health — and weight follows.

Your body isn’t broken.
It’s communicating.
And when you learn how to listen, healing becomes possible

Is Wheat Really That Bad? Or Is This Just Another Health Trend?"

Let’s clear the air on something I get asked ALL the time:

“Is wheat really that bad?”
“Do I have to be gluten-free forever?”
“What about sourdough or organic bread — is that okay?”

Here’s what I tell every patient who walks through my doors:

You don’t have to be gluten-free forever. But you absolutely need to cut it out in the beginning if you want to heal.

Why? Because wheat today is not what it used to be.

Let’s break it down:

🔹 Wheat contains gliadin, a protein that triggers the release of zonulin — a molecule that opens up the tight junctions in your gut. This leads to gut permeability (aka “leaky gut”), which causes widespread inflammation.

🔹 This happens in everyone — not just people with celiac.
Even people with no known wheat sensitivity still show increased gut permeability after eating gluten. It’s in the research.

🔹 Modern wheat is different.
It’s been hybridized and sprayed with glyphosate, even in “organic” products. You’re not just reacting to wheat — you’re reacting to the toxins that come with it.

🔹 Gluten-free ≠ healthy.
A lot of people go gluten-free and swap it for ultra-processed junk: gluten-free cookies, crackers, bars loaded with sugar and bad oils. That’s not healing — it’s trading one problem for another.

So what should a real, healing gluten-free approach look like?

✅ Pasture-raised meats
✅ Wild-caught seafood
✅ Organic fruits + vegetables
✅ Nuts, seeds, and clean fats
✅ Optional: fermented sourdough or sprouted, ancient grains (IF tolerated — and only once the gut has healed)

The goal is to reduce inflammation and give your body the environment it needs to heal.

And when you do that? You feel the difference — clearer mind, better digestion, balanced hormones, and real energy.

Have you ever gone gluten-free and noticed a change? Drop it below — I’d love to hear your experience.

Many people living with chronic pain feel like their body is failing them… but what’s really happening is cellular inflammation that never turns off.

Whether it’s fibromyalgia, neuropathy, arthritis, Hashimoto’s, or post-surgical pain—these patterns are driven by inflammation at the cellular level.

HBOT doesn’t “treat” the condition.
It gives the body what it desperately needs: oxygen delivered under pressure, which helps:

• Reduce inflammatory cytokines
• Increase anti-inflammatory signaling
• Improve circulation
• Support tissue repair and recovery

For many of our patients, HBOT becomes the turning point that finally gives the body margin to heal.

Want to see if HBOT could help your pain or autoimmune symptoms? Contact our team for details or schedule your first session.

This is exactly why we do what we do. True healing doesn’t come from masking symptoms—it comes from understanding the whole person and supporting the body’s natural ability to recover and thrive.

When we shift the focus from “managing symptoms” to uncovering what’s actually holding the body back, everything changes. With a root-cause approach and supportive therapies like hyperbaric oxygen, many people begin to experience what they thought was lost:
• Deeper, more restorative sleep
• Clearer thinking and mental clarity
• Renewed energy and improved overall health

Instead of relying on medications that only quiet symptoms, we focus on identifying what your body truly needs to heal—whether that’s nervous system support, functional wellness coaching, detoxification pathways, or advanced therapies like HBOT.

Our goal is to always serve our community both locally and worldwide:
💙 Locally with structural corrective chiropractic care, functional wellness coaching, and our hyperbaric oxygen chamber
🌍 Worldwide with functional coaching, helping people everywhere uncover root causes and restore health from the inside out

If you’ve felt stuck, unheard, or frustrated by surface-level care, there is another way. Your body is capable of far more healing than you’ve been led to believe.

Understanding Fevers: What Every Parent Should Know

Seeing your child spike a fever can instantly create fear. That number on the thermometer makes many parents feel like they need to act right now.

But here’s what we want you to understand as doctors and parents:

👉 A fever is not a failure of the body.
👉 It’s often a sign the immune system is doing exactly what it’s designed to do.

When a child is exposed to a virus or bacteria, the brain raises body temperature on purpose to make it harder for that invader to survive. This is a controlled, intelligent response — not something broken or dangerous.

Research from children’s hospitals has shown:
• Not all fevers are harmful
• Not all fevers need medication
• Fevers from infection do not keep climbing endlessly

A common myth is that fevers automatically cause brain damage. In reality, that only occurs at extremely high temperatures far beyond typical childhood illness. Fevers in the 103–104°F range can actually help fight infection.

The hardest part for parents isn’t the fever — it’s the fear.
Fear of discomfort.
Fear of losing control.
Fear of “doing nothing.”

But allowing a fever to run its course while supporting the body is not neglect. It’s understanding how the immune system learns and builds strength.

Trust your intuition, watch your child — not just the number — and remember:
Your child’s body is intelligent.
It knows how to heal.

Share this with a parent who needs reassurance today.

If you change your lifestyle to actually heal your body, your body will respond. You were designed to heal — not to be sick, inflamed, and stuck on medications forever.

In our clinic, we don’t do one-size-fits-all nutrition. When you come see us, we look at:
• Nervous system
• Nutrition and gut health
• Lifestyle and stress

Then we create a plan to help your body function the way it was created to.

One of the biggest red flags we see is weight loss resistance.

If you’re:
• Gaining weight even though you haven’t changed anything
• Doing “all the right things” and still can’t lose weight
• Watching your belly grow while energy and mood drop

…that’s not a willpower problem. That’s a hormone and insulin problem.

Many people jump into keto because a friend lost weight quickly. And yes, when you cut out chips, bread, soda, and junk, your body will say “thank you” and drop weight at first.

But here’s the issue:

• Keto is used as a quick fix, not a healing tool.
• People load up on bacon, cheese, artificial sweeteners, junk oils, and conventional dairy.
• They never learn how to transition out of keto or cycle their carbohydrates.

They lose weight, then as soon as they stop, the weight comes back and they feel worse. This is not because your body is broken.

The truth:
• Keto is not just a weight-loss diet. It’s a therapeutic tool to heal at a cellular level and improve insulin sensitivity.
• You are not meant to live in ketosis forever.
• True metabolic healing comes from diet variation — seasons of lower carbs and higher fat, then cycling healthy carbs once the metabolism is flexible.

If you’re weight-loss resistant or struggling with belly fat, your body isn’t telling you to “try harder.” It’s telling you to change the strategy.

You were created to heal. Our job is to help you remove what’s blocking it.

Why Your Thyroid Will Never Heal Until You Fix THIS

Your thyroid doesn’t just “give up.” It doesn’t just get cancer for no reason.

It’s trying to tell you something.

And you can’t fix the thyroid unless you look at what’s messing with it:
• Toxins like BPA, phthalates, and fluoride in your water
• Mercury from amalgam fillings (go look up the “Smoking Tooth” video!)
• Gut infections like H. pylori and parasites like Blastocystis hominis
• Gluten damages your gut lining and triggers autoimmune attacks

Most people are walking around with sky-high thyroid antibodies and don’t even know it. I’ve seen TPO levels go from 900+ down to 12—not from a pill, but from healing the root.

The thyroid is the canary in the coal mine. When it's struggling, your entire body is screaming for help.

You’ve got to address:
• What’s coming in through your water and food
• What’s lurking in your gut and mouth
• How your nervous system is communicating with your body
• What labs you’re running, and how you’re reading them

If no one’s ever looked at your toxic burden, gut permeability, or thyroid antibodies, it’s time to get answers.

You’re not broken. You just need the right kind of help.

Working with kids and supporting their health is one of my favorite parts of being a chiropractor. Their bodies are growing fast, and their nervous systems are constantly wiring, adapting, and building the foundation for lifelong wellness.

That’s why gentle, specific chiropractic adjustments can make such a meaningful difference early on. When the spine is aligned and the nervous system is clear, kids often experience better focus, stronger immunity, improved sleep, healthier posture, quicker recovery from injuries, and a more balanced mood.

The best part? Kids respond quickly. Their bodies are designed to heal when we remove interference.

Our pediatric adjustments are gentle, safe, and tailored to your child’s unique needs. Most parents are surprised by how calm their kids are during the process — and how much they look forward to their visits.

If you’ve wondered whether chiropractic care could support your child’s wellness, we’d be honored to help you explore it.

Vitamin D is one of the nutrients I see most people misunderstand — and most people are deficient in. Even though we call it a “vitamin,” it actually behaves like a hormone, influencing everything from immune function to hormone balance to gene expression.

Here’s what you really need to know:

• Deficiency is extremely common.
Many adults and kids — especially those with darker skin, limited sun exposure, or gut/liver issues — struggle to maintain healthy vitamin D levels. Low levels can weaken immune responses and increase inflammation.

• Vitamin D is most powerful as prevention.
Think of it as a foundational nutrient your body uses every day. Consistency matters — your body functions best when vitamin D levels stay steady over time.

• Proper absorption requires fat and K2.
Vitamin D is fat-soluble, which means you absorb it significantly better when you take it with a meal containing healthy fats.
Pairing vitamin D with vitamin K2 helps make sure calcium goes where it should go — your bones — and not where it shouldn’t.

• So what does appropriate intake look like?
The goal is to keep vitamin D in a healthy, stable range year-round. For most people, that means a daily maintenance dose that fits their age, size, sun exposure, and overall health status. During times of increased immune demand, the body often needs more support — and dosage may need to reflect that.
(But the exact amount varies, so testing and individualized guidance is key.)

Vitamin D isn’t the whole solution, but it’s a critical piece of the bigger picture when it comes to immune strength, hormone health, and resilience.

Vitamin C is one of your body’s key antioxidants.
That means it helps neutralize oxidative stress — the cellular damage that weakens immunity, slows healing, and increases inflammation.

Because vitamin C is water-soluble, your body doesn’t store large amounts of it. And unlike most animals, we can’t make our own, which means we rely on consistent intake from food or supplementation.

Here are the fundamentals:

🔹 Vitamin C helps support immune cells during stress and infection.
When your body is fighting something, it burns through vitamin C faster — which is why dosing often needs to be higher during symptoms than in day-to-day life.

🔹 Most people underdose.
In our home, we think in two categories:
• Preventive: smaller doses throughout the day
• Illness: temporarily higher, more frequent dosing
(Always consult your doctor about what’s right for you.)

🔹 Food sources matter too.
Some of the richest, lower-sugar options include:
• Red bell peppers
• Kiwi
• Acerola cherry
• Camu camu
• Berries
• Leafy greens
• Avocado

Vitamin C isn’t magic — your body is.
Vitamin C simply gives your cells more of what they need to repair, respond, and recover.

Your menstrual cycle is a vital sign. Not an inconvenience, not something to ignore, and not something to medicate away.

Each month, your hormones communicate powerful information about your thyroid, stress levels, ovulation, mood, and long-term reproductive health. Yet too many women are told “everything looks fine” while dealing with symptoms that clearly say otherwise.

Here’s what I want you to know:
When one hormone is off, it affects everything else. Your hormones work as a symphony, not separate systems.

A healthy cycle follows a rhythm:
• Follicular phase: Estrogen rises
• Ovulation: Not always Day 14 — stress, thyroid issues, travel, and inflammation can delay it
• Luteal phase: Progesterone rises to stabilize mood & sleep
• Day 21: The BEST time to test estrogen & progesterone

Most women never learn this, so their labs are done at the wrong time and the results don’t tell the real story.

Now… your symptoms are NOT “normal.” They are signals:

Estrogen dominance:
Heavy or painful periods, fibroids, headaches/migraines, bloating, puffiness, and even gallbladder issues.

Low progesterone:
Anxiety or depression before your period, difficulty getting or staying pregnant, PMS 7–10 days before your cycle, insomnia, irregular cycles, and worsening symptoms during perimenopause or menopause.

Progesterone should make you feel calm and emotionally steady. When it’s low, everything feels harder—even when your life is good.

You’re not “crazy.” You’re not “too emotional.” You’re not broken.
You’re experiencing hormone imbalance, and your body is asking for help.

When you track your cycle—basal body temperature, cervical fluid, ovulation patterns—you finally understand your body in a way no prescription ever teaches.

Your cycle is communication. Your symptoms are communication. Your body is not your enemy—it’s your guide.

If this brought clarity, share it with another woman who needs this today.

When someone is dealing with chronic symptoms—fatigue, pain, brain fog, slow healing—we always look deeper than the diagnosis.
Most of the time, we find two major issues underneath it all:

1. Low cellular energy (mitochondria)
2. Chronic inflammation

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) helps both.

Inside the chamber, your body absorbs oxygen at levels you simply can’t achieve breathing regular air. That oxygen fuels the mitochondria, calms inflammation, and creates an internal environment where healing becomes possible.

This is why we use HBOT alongside functional nutrition, detoxification, and nervous system support—it amplifies your body’s ability to repair.
