When your thyroid is underactive, your body’s metabolism and temperature drop, making digestion and nutrient absorption harder than ever.

One of the key steps in healing is nourishing your body with the right foods. When dealing with low thyroid function, avoid icy, raw foods, as they can further slow down your digestion.

Instead, focus on warming, anti-inflammatory foods that support your thyroid and improve overall digestion.

Healing food options for your thyroid include:
🫚 Turmeric & Ginger Tea: Helps reduce inflammation and supports detox.
🦴 Bone Broth: Rich in minerals, collagen, and amino acids that support gut and thyroid health.
🍠 Sweet Potatoes: Full of fiber and vitamins to fuel your metabolism.
🐟 Wild-Caught Salmon: Packed with omega-3s to support thyroid function and reduce inflammation.
🥩 Organ Meats: A nutrient-dense source of vitamins and peptides essential for healing.

If you’re ready to take control of your thyroid, comment ‘THYROID’ below to get my in-depth class on how to reverse thyroid disease and fully heal.

A disturbing new study published in Cell Metabolism reveals that even LOW DOSES of artificial sweeteners like aspartame may significantly increase cardiovascular disease risk.

Here's what researchers discovered:
- Aspartame consumption increases insulin levels through vagus nerve activation—even without raising blood sugar
- This elevated insulin triggers inflammation in blood vessel walls via a specific pathway (CX3CL1-CX3CR1)
- The inflammation accelerates the formation and growth of arterial plaques—the hallmark of atherosclerosis that leads to heart attacks and strokes

Most concerning? These findings were validated in both mice AND monkeys, strengthening their relevance to human health.

This groundbreaking study helps explain recent population studies connecting artificial sweetener consumption with increased cardiovascular disease.

The findings suggest that people with existing heart disease risk factors might want to reconsider regular aspartame consumption, as it could potentially accelerate atherosclerosis through this insulin-inflammation pathway—completely separate from any effects on body weight or blood sugar.

NOTICE: THE CLINIC WILL BE CLOSED MARCH 24TH- MARCH 28TH, FOR SPRING BREAK.

While we will be out of office for a much needed break to spend quality time with our own family, we will have limited access to respond to incoming medication refill requests. If you need a refill, please ask your pharmacy to send us a request and it will be addressed.

For urgent matters you do not feel can wait until we return, please text 501-900-4549 and a staff member will respond to URGENT NEEDS ONLY, as soon as possible.

Any non-urgent voicemails or texts received during this time will not be addressed until the week of March 31st.

During our break, if you have a need you feel requires a visit, that can't wait until we return, you should seek care at an urgent care, or other provider of your choice.

As always, if you have an emergent need, please call 911, or seek care at the nearest ER.

PLEASE REFRAIN FROM TEXTING/CALLING OUR PERSONAL PHONES FOR MEDICAL RELATED QUESTIONS/CONCERNS.

Thanks,

For anyone interested in the ECHO water machine:

Echo Water Machine.

In addition to countertop models, and on the go options Echo also has a whole home filtration system.

The whole home system is $2995. Unlike many other systems on the market it actually removes fluoride from the water.

“We are certified as having true hydrogen water devices. What I mean by this is that our devices are the only devices in the world that are certified to have met the IHSA Standard (International Hydrogen Standards Association).

In order to have that certification a hydrogen device must use distilled water and be able to dissolve at least .5 ppm of hydrogen gas. Our devices not only met the standard, but they exceeded the standard by more than 3 times as they dissolved 1.6 to 1.8ppm of H2 gas in distilled water.

Here are a few videos you can share with patients:

I often tell my patients this very thing! Until we address our entire BODY from a “root cause” perspective, we will stay “stuck” in a perpetual state of being “UNWELL”

This includes so much more than just our physical being! We must address Body, Mind, and Soul! 🩵

A reminder from Healing Journey Health & Wellness (Glenda Gore, APRN)

DEAR PATIENTS,

(Including FAMILY & FRIENDS☺️)

I am currently OUT OF THE OFFICE.

ADVANCE NOTICE of this planned time off was sent out to ALL PATIENTS, via the email address we had on file. This is also how we send billing statements, so please check your email.

For the past few weeks my staff and I had worked overtime to help ensure we were able to address any potential needs, ahead of my absence.

During my time off, my amazing staff will be available to address any basic, but important needs (like medication refills) So, if you find yourself in need of a refill during this time, PLEASE ask your pharmacy to send us a request and it will be addressed.

However, it you have a need you feel requires a visit, but it can’t wait until my return, you should seek care at an urgent care, or other provider of your choice.

As always, if you have an emergent need, please call 911, or seek care at the nearest ER.

When the notice was sent out, my office manager felt it was important to protect my right to privacy. So she simply stated I would be off for 2 weeks, to tend to a personal matter.

So, while I would much rather be “enjoying time off” and I do appreciate the sentiment behind “I am so sorry to bother you on your time off, BUT can you - - - - - “ I am not on vacation. 🙄

I have been off because I had to undergo surgery last week. I am happy to report the surgery was a success. Thank God, the pathology results revealed only a “benign mass of scar tissue” 🙏🏻

However,anesthesia has never been kind to me. So, I am still dealing with a bit of post-op nausea and a dull headache. I am a bit sore and bruised with mild incision pain but have not had to take any pain medication.

I am home recovering during this time. I should be released from care at my follow-up, on April 10th. The current plan is to return to regular clinic operations on Thursday April 11, 2024.

I appreciate the kindness that has been shown to me during this time. Thanks for the many prayers, 🩵GG

Photo for proof I am NOT enjoying a vacation. Lol
