🌍 Earth Day Week at Illuminate

What you put in your body starts with what's in the earth — and Dr. Keegan Ziemba, MD, is doing her part to take care of it.

Earth Day isn't just one day, it's a lifestyle.

We recycle as much as we can. We compost. We've significantly reduced our plastics. We filter our water. We opt for locally sourced groceries when possible. None of it is perfect. All of it adds up.

A healthy planet and a healthy body aren't separate goals. They're the same one. 🌿

🌍 Earth Day Week at Illuminate

What you put in your body starts with what's in the earth — including what you store it in.

Today Kristin Comas, our certified health coach, is sharing one small swap that made a big difference. She ditched plastic containers for glass and hasn't looked back. No leaching chemicals. No mystery residue. Just clean food stored the way it should be.
It's a simple change, but simple changes add up.

Start somewhere. This is a great place. 🌿

🌍 Earth Day Week at Illuminate

What you put in your body starts with what's in the earth, including what you wash your clothes and dishes with. Today Andrea Steele, our Patient Care Coordinator, is sharing a swap that's cleaner for your home and the planet.

One of the easiest changes I've made? Switching my laundry and dish detergent.
Conventional detergents are loaded with synthetic fragrances, harsh chemicals, and plastic packaging that adds up fast. I made the switch to Blueland dish and laundry detergent.

Clean formula. No plastic waste. And it actually works.

What's sitting under your sink right now? It might be time for a second look. 🌿

When you call Illuminate, Andrea answers.
When you have a question, Andrea finds the answer.
When you need to feel taken care of before you even see a provider, Andrea is already on it.

She is the heartbeat of this practice, and we are so grateful she is ours.
Happy Administrative Professionals Day, Andrea. We see everything you do. 🤍

🌍 Earth Day Week at Illuminate

What you put in your body starts with what's in the earth — and that includes what you drink.

Today Mary Margaret Burch, FNP-BC, and Lindsey Burton, our certified health coach, are sharing a non-negotiable they BOTH swear by.

Not all water is created equal. Two of us. Same conclusion. Filtered water is non-negotiable.

They both use a filtered water system at home to remove the contaminants that sneak into tap water every day. You can eat all the right things and still be loading your body with toxins through your water. This one is worth looking into.

Find the right system for you — a whole home system, reverse osmosis at the sink, or a countertop option. All are great starts. Here's a link to Lindsey's favorite countertop option: https://a.co/d/0gL6h4VJ

Clean water in. Better everything out.

🌍 Happy Earth Day Week from Illuminate!
What you put in your body starts with what's in the earth.
This week our team is sharing one small way they show up for their health, and the planet, every day. We're starting with Dr. Jennifer Franklin, MD.

Dr. Franklin's Earth Day habit: shopping the Dirty Dozen.
If you're not buying everything organic, start here. These twelve fruits and vegetables carry the highest pesticide residue and are worth the organic swap every time.
🍓 Strawberries
🥬 Spinach
🥦 Kale
🍑 Peaches
🍐 Pears
🍎 Apples
🍇 Grapes
🫐 Blueberries
🍒 Cherries
🍑 Nectarines
🫐 Blackberries
🥔 Potatoes
Small swaps. Real impact. For your body and the earth.
Follow along this week as our team shares what clean living looks like in their everyday lives.

"Where's the textbook?!"- Dr Alison Golnik, MD

Functional medicine is moving so fast — there isn't one.

That's why our providers don't work in isolation. They learn from each other, lean on each other, and bring that collective wisdom directly to your care.

Community is a foundation of functional medicine. We live it at home, at work, and in every appointment.
Better together. Always.

5 Doctors. 5 States. 1 Mission. Better Together.

What happens when 5 functional medicine physicians find each other across state lines and sit down in the same room? This.

We asked: How does collaboration make us better? Because when our team thinks together, you thrive together.

World Health Day looks a little different around here. 🌍

We asked our team: What's one way you show up for your health today?

Because we can't pour from an empty cup, and the same goes for you.

At Illuminate, a team approach isn't just how we work. It's how we help you thrive.

Better together, every time.Happy World Health Day. 🌍

What happens when providers go deeper TOGETHER? That's the question we are answering this week!

You go to the doctor and hear, "Your labs are normal." So why don't you feel normal?

Conventional medicine is incredibly important because it saves lives! But it's designed to identify disease and provide relief for acute issues. If you don't have one, the conversation often stops there.

Functional medicine is where we pick up. Same patient. Deeper questions. Better answers.
