STILL TIRED AFTER THE HOLIDAYS? THIS MIGHT BE WHY 😴

Post-holiday fatigue is real—and even weeks later, your body may still be recovering. The good news? Small, simple habits can make a big difference.

🍵 Sip smart:
* Green tea supports liver health and natural detox pathways
* Oolong tea gives your metabolism a gentle boost
* Ginger tea soothes digestion
* Chamomile tea helps promote better sleep

🥗 Reset with balanced meals:
Focus on a high-protein portion, small complex carbs, and plenty of leafy greens to support liver function and help you feel better faster.
😴 Prioritize rest:
Quality sleep is essential for recovery and energy.
🏃‍♀️ Keep moving—even in winter:
Yoga, Pilates, treadmill walks, or hot yoga all help re-energize your body and get you back into your New Year routine.

Small daily choices = better energy, digestion, and overall health ✨

Carbohydrates often get a bad reputation, but they’re not the enemy 🍞. Carbs are your body’s main source of energy, fueling your brain, muscles, and vital organs. The real issue isn’t eating carbohydrates — it’s how quickly they raise blood sugar. Refined carbs can cause rapid spikes and crashes, leading to fatigue, cravings, inflammation, and weight gain over time. Complex carbohydrates digest more slowly and help keep blood sugar steady ⚖️.

🌾 Examples of complex carbs:
* Brown rice
* Basmati rice
* Quinoa
* Lentils
* Sweet potatoes 🍠

These foods are rich in fiber and nutrients that support digestion, steady energy, and metabolic health. When carbs are paired with protein and healthy fats, your body handles them even better — helping prevent blood sugar swings and crashes. This is especially important during perimenopause and menopause, when insulin sensitivity naturally declines.

✨ Important wellness notes:
* Pair carbs with protein and healthy fats for balance
* Choose fiber-rich, whole-food sources
* Avoid eating refined carbs alone
* Support hormones, sleep, and stress to improve blood sugar control

In integrative medicine, the goal isn’t restriction — it’s optimization 🌿. When your metabolism is supported, carbohydrates can fuel your body, support hormone health, and fit into a sustainable, nourishing lifestyle.

🌿 Ginger—Your Gut’s Best Friend! 🌿

Did you know ginger isn’t just a spice? It’s a powerful root with benefits for digestion, inflammation, immunity, and even metabolic health! 🫙✨

🤢 Nausea support: Ginger is especially helpful for easing nausea—perfect for those on GLP-1 therapy or anyone with digestive discomfort.
💪 Inflammation & immunity: Helps calm the gut, joints, and supports overall wellness.
⚖️ Metabolic & hormone support: Can help balance blood sugar and support weight and metabolic health.

In integrative medicine, ginger is used safely and intentionally—whether as tea, capsules, or fresh root—tailored to your unique needs. 🌱

✅ Always check with your doctor before starting herbal remedies regularly.

💡 Tip: Adding a little ginger to your routine may help your digestive comfort and overall wellness!

✨ L-CARNITINE (LEVOCARNITINE) ✨

What is it?
L-Carnitine is a natural amino acid that helps the body turn fat into energy.

How it works:
👉 Levocarnitine forces fat into the cells to be used as energy, making it a powerful fat burner.

Key Benefits:
✔ Helps burn fat and reduce fat mass
✔ Boosts energy and reduces fatigue
✔ Supports weight loss when paired with diet & exercise

What studies show:
🔹 Research shows modest weight loss and reduced BMI compared to placebo
🔹 Works best with calorie-controlled diet and regular exercise
🔹 Most effective for those who are overweight or obese
🔹 Not a quick fix — results improve with consistent use over weeks or months

⚠ Important Reminder:
L-Carnitine is a support supplement, not a replacement for healthy lifestyle.
Always check with your doctor first, especially if you have medical conditions or are on medication.

💉 Available Options:
✅ Once-a-week injection
✅ Mini IV therapy

At Vitality MD Clinic, L-Carnitine is offered as part of a personalized, integrative wellness approach. Dr. Michelle Mendoza carefully evaluates your health goals, metabolic needs, and overall medical profile to ensure safe, effective, and individualized supplementation.

✨ Wellness Wednesday: My Go-To Nourishing Buddha Bowl ✨

When I want a meal that feels comforting, balanced, and energizing—without overthinking nutrition—this Buddha bowl is my go-to. Buddha bowls naturally support mindful eating and blood sugar balance because they combine fiber-rich carbs, protein, and healthy fats in one satisfying meal. The result? Steady energy and true satiety, not the quick “full then crash” feeling.

This bowl starts with a whole roasted sweet potato, skin on, drizzled with olive oil. Sweet potatoes are rich in fiber, vitamin A, and antioxidants that support gut health, immunity, and stable energy. I pair that with a base of quinoa and lentils, which provide complete plant protein, iron, magnesium, and slow-digesting carbohydrates that help keep blood sugar steady. From there, it’s easy to customize—add tofu, grilled chicken, ground beef, or eggs depending on your needs that day, especially if you’re navigating hormone shifts, cravings, or fatigue.

What I love most is how flexible this meal is. It works just as well for breakfast as it does for lunch or dinner. Starting the day with a savory, protein-rich bowl like this can help prevent mid-morning crashes, support hormone balance, and keep you full and focused longer. Sometimes breakfast doesn’t need to look like breakfast—and your body often responds better when you think outside the box.

Wellness doesn’t have to be complicated. Simple, intentional meals like this can support digestion, energy, and your relationship with food—one mindful bite at a time 💛

New year, new focus on cellular health ✨

Glutathione is often called the master antioxidant—and for good reason. It’s made mostly in the liver and in every cell of the body, where it plays a critical role in detoxification, immune defense, and protecting your cells from oxidative stress. The challenge? Glutathione levels naturally decline with age, stress, illness, infections, toxin exposure, and even alcohol use—making many people feel more fatigued, inflamed, or run down over time.

The good news is that you can support glutathione production through lifestyle and integrative care. Eating sulfur-rich foods like eggs, meat, dairy, and cruciferous vegetables, exercising regularly, managing stress, and reducing toxin exposure all help your body make more of it. For additional support, liposomal oral glutathione can be helpful, and for higher absorption, glutathione is also available as an injectable or IV option at Vitality MD.

If 2026 is the year you want more energy, better detox support, and stronger cellular protection, glutathione may be worth considering.
Talk with your provider about the best option for your body and goals.

✨ New Year, New Intention: Make Space to Move in 2026 ✨

As we step into 2026, let’s redefine what “self-care” really looks like — not perfection, not pressure, but presence. Even a few minutes of yoga or gentle stretching each day can make a powerful difference, especially during perimenopause and menopause.

During this season of life, hormonal shifts can lead to stiffness, joint pain, sleep disruption, stress, and increased cortisol. Gentle movement helps counter all of that. Stretching improves circulation, supports flexibility, calms the nervous system, and helps regulate stress hormones. Yoga also supports balance, bone health, and muscle tone — all essential as estrogen levels change.

You don’t need an hour. You don’t need to be “flexible.”
You just need a moment to reconnect with your body.

✨ 5–10 minutes of daily movement can help:

Reduce stress and cortisol

Support hormone balance

Improve sleep quality

Ease joint and muscle stiffness

Boost mood and mental clarity

Support longevity and graceful aging

In integrative medicine, we believe healing happens through small, consistent habits that support the whole person — body, mind, and hormones. Let 2026 be the year you honor your body with movement that feels nourishing, not punishing.

Start where you are. Breathe. Stretch. Reset.
Your future self will thank you. 💛🧘‍♀️

💡 Can Hormone Therapy Be Used for Weight Loss?

Hormone therapy is often misunderstood as a “weight-loss treatment,” but the truth is more nuanced. While hormone therapy can support body composition and symptom relief during menopause, it is not designed or approved as a primary weight-loss solution. Research shows that hormonal changes during menopause are closely linked to increased abdominal fat and more severe hot flashes, which is why many women notice weight changes during this stage. Addressing hormones can help support metabolism and comfort, but sustainable weight loss still requires a comprehensive, individualized approach.

Here’s what current medical evidence tells us:

* Hormone therapy may help improve body composition, but it does not directly cause weight loss
* Increased abdominal fat is linked to more severe menopausal symptoms
* Lifestyle-based weight loss (nutrition, movement, sleep) can reduce hot flashes and symptom severity
* Weight-loss medications may help some patients, but their effect on menopausal symptoms is limited
* Early research suggests hormone therapy may enhance response to weight-loss treatments — but more studies are needed
* Hormone therapy should always be personalized and medically supervised

At Vitality MD, we take an integrative approach — looking at hormones, metabolism, nutrition, lifestyle, and overall health together. The goal isn’t quick fixes, but safe, sustainable strategies that support long-term wellness.
