🌿 What is Metabolic Health & Why Does It Matter? 🌿
Metabolic health refers to how well your body generates and uses energy at the cellular level. It’s the foundation of overall wellness—impacting your weight, energy levels, blood sugar, heart health, and even longevity. When your metabolism is working efficiently, your body can properly regulate blood sugar, cholesterol, and blood pressure, while also maintaining a healthy waistline and steady energy throughout the day.
Poor metabolic health, on the other hand, can contribute to fatigue, weight gain, brain fog, and increase the risk of chronic conditions like diabetes, heart disease, and inflammation-related illnesses. Unfortunately, studies show that less than 1 in 8 adults meet the criteria for optimal metabolic health today.
✨ How Integrative Medicine Can Help
Instead of focusing on quick fixes, Dr. Michelle Mendoza takes an integrative approach—addressing the root causes of metabolic imbalance. By combining personalized nutrition, movement, stress management, natural therapies, and when needed, advanced medical support, she helps patients create sustainable paths toward restoring balance and long-term vitality.
💡 Small, consistent steps—like eating whole foods, getting restorative sleep, and managing stress—can create powerful changes in your metabolic health.
