A typical day at our family-run practice sometimes looks like this!

You all know sleep is so important for your overall health! So if you are one of the unfortunate that are now suffering from influenza or just not operating at your peak performance after the holidays, yes, making an effort to log in quality sleep is SO important to to keep your immune system humming.

I’m sharing my personal Oura ring sleep data from December here. You can see my holiday month had the least amount of sleep of all, and I know you all probably have close to the same sleeping pattens during that busy time!

AND did you know the consistency and depth of sleep are now input into AI models to predict future diseases like heart disease and dementia?

At Body of Health, we first have an in-depth discussion of every aspect of your health, including sleep 💤, one of the five pillars of health that we discuss with you. Then we give you a “care plan” for maximizing your future health! That’s a Win-Win🥇 for your future health!

Dr. T and I had a great time talking at the Cosmopolitan Diabetes fair today! The thrust of our talk about diabetes was the same thrust we make for our general practice:

Discover, Educate and Support

We discover what each patient’s health needs are, we educate them about their options, always including traditional and lifestyle medicine in that formula and finally we support our patients with the decision they ultimately make about their own health. Win Win for our patients!!

Thank you Sammi Gregory for being there to be our marketing guru and being on hand for questions about our practice!

AND this happens to be National Direct Primary Care Day, November 1st!! We are so thankful to use this incredible model in our practice because the emphasis is on the PATIENT, not an insurance bill!!

Just a little bit of family-run medical office humor for today…

So I go back to our exam room after just seeing a patient to change the patient chair covering and sanitize it for the next patient when I see this.

Me: Hon, did you turn the lights out in the exam room? We have more patients this afternoon.

My Dear Husband (Dr. T): Oh I just do that automatically!

Me: Ummmm, so why do I need to turn off every light 💡 you put on in our home every time you leave a room…🤣🤣🤣

It’s been a joy to talk to our patients about the nutrition that’s right for them based on their medical profile. So educating them about nutrition tweaks and swaps that fit their lifestyle and health needs is what we initiate, but having them come back at a later follow-up appointment to gauge their progress, witnessing their amazing advancement along with giving us their new found healthy eating tips IS WHAT IT’S ALL ABOUT!!

This dish covers all the bases for battling metabolic syndrome, that’s the broad umbrella labeling for hypertension, abdominal fat excess, insulin resistance, high triglycerides and elevated lipids. The lean protein of the mild whitefish (cod) with the high fiber of butter beans, spinach, and sweet peppers along with the anti- inflammatory properties of leeks and garlic make this a winner dinner that hits all the health notes and tastes fabulous!
