The number one vegetable consumed in the United States is the potato. Potatoes are a carbohydrate, as are many vegetables including corn and carrots.

We have some very exciting news to announce! It has been a six year process because so Many people have asked~ do you have anyone who does what Dr Trites does in X location.

Well, there are over 1M doctors (MD,DO,DC etc) in the USA. Any doctor could be trained in functional medicine. Currently, there are around 7,000 so 1/7,000 potential option. There are 40,000 acupuncturists, where only a few thousand use the gold standard diagnostic tool Acugraph that we use in our office. Down to 1/2,000. There are 70,000 chiropractors. Around 4,000 of them use muscle testing/kinesiology. 1,300 doctors have been trained in biosystems integration with frequencies so 1/1,300. Less than 400 spent an additional three years post-graduate and hold diplomat status as a chiropractic internist. Now 1/400. Less than a few hundred integrate the study and testing of the nervous system (functional neurology) integrating 3B laser. In the seminars attended, forums, meet and greet and talking with Dr. Trites, combined we've met two other doctors with functional neurology and at least 2 of the above requirements. And, in all the doctors we've met only one other had a clinical laboratory science degree in pathology and no longer practices. As you can see, it's hard to refer. There are plenty of doctors who charge more to perform some of what we do.

So, after six years and dozen of interviews, we found a match for our clinic! Dr. Luke Tate will be starting in our clinic this week and has been trained in biosystems integration, 3B laser, kinesiology and acupuncture. That's 4/7 and he's currently being trained in functional medicine, functional neurology and whole body thermography. Yes, you heard it here first. We will have the gold standard for whole body thermography one of two in the DFW/Oklahoma area very soon! Stay tuned for more information on that. In the meantime, please extend a warm welcome to Dr. Tate!

A heart-healthy diet is easy to achieve when you put veggies on your grill. Vegetables take relatively little time to cook making them the perfect candidate for cooking on the grill, and the veggie options that cook well on the grill are pretty much endless.
Zucchini — green or yellow work perfectly, cut into 1/3″ to 1/2″ slices before grilling—cut too thin and they’ll fall apart.

Bell peppers, poblano peppers, jalapeño peppers sweet baby peppers, shish*to peppers — slice bell peppers and remove seeds of the bell peppers before grilling for easiest eating.

Bell pepper: Whole for 10-12 minutes; halved for 8-10 minutes
Carrot: Boil for 4-6 minutes, then grill 3-5 minutes

Portabello mushroom: 8-10 minutes
Onion: sliced 8-10 minutes; halved 35-40 minutes
Green onion: 3-4 minutes
Tomato: 6-8 minutes halved
Zucchini: 5-7 minutes

Imagine the following scenario: you went to a big box store and bought a giant bottle of multi-vitamins and now you think you're "covered." It's not hard to imagine this because at one time or another we've all done it. The problem with this is two-fold. 1) The quality of what you're buying is questionable and 2) you're likely missing out on key supplements your body actually needs. How do you know there's enough vitamin B, D or E and how do know how much, if any, your body needs? Learn more at bit.ly/NLH-Supplements
