There is no “one perfect diet” and science is finally catching up.

Integrative Nutritionist, , shares her response to a new review in the Journal of Translational Medicine that highlights what we see every day in clinical practice:

👉 Multiple dietary patterns can support health
👉 Outcomes depend on gut microbiome responses
👉 Even ketogenic diets are being reevaluated for metabolic and cardiovascular effects

Your gut microbiome influences inflammation, immunity, and metabolism so it makes sense that different bodies need different nutritional strategies.

This research marks a shift away from rigid food rules and toward biologically informed, personalized nutrition.

At Raden Wellness, we don’t believe in magic diets. We believe in data, testing, and recommendations that work with your physiology, not against it.

Sustainable health isn’t restrictive. It’s personalized.

To take a deeper look at your nutrition, schedule a consultation with Karen.

At Raden, we don’t just recommend these things, we actually live them.

Here’s what changed for our team after working at an integrative wellness center.

Because the best care starts with understanding your own body first.

“Normal” doesn’t mean optimal.

Most lab ranges are built from population averages and the average adult is managing some form of chronic imbalance. Conventional labs are designed to rule out disease, not to define health.

At Raden, we look deeper. Functional lab interpretation helps identify early patterns, subtle dysfunction, and opportunities to intervene before symptoms turn into diagnoses.

Health isn’t about waiting for something to be wrong. It’s about understanding your body early.

We have been told to fear cholesterol but rarely taught to ask why it is elevated.

At Raden we look deeper than just lipid values. Metabolic dysfunction glucose imbalance and insulin resistance are often the real drivers.

When you fix metabolism lipid markers often follow.

Health is not about suppressing labs it is about restoring function.

GLP-1s aren’t a shortcut. They’re a tool, when used correctly.

When prescribed and supported responsibly, GLP-1s can help quiet food noise, reduce cravings, naturally decrease alcohol intake, and reset portion awareness, often at lower doses than people expect.

At Raden, we:
• Microdose (lowest effective dose)
• Track progress objectively with InBody biometric scans
• Pair GLP-1s with nutrition support (not restriction)
• Focus on fat loss while preserving muscle
• Build a plan you don’t need to stay on forever

The problem isn’t GLP-1s.
It’s rushing doses, skipping lifestyle changes, and treating them like a quick fix.

Real results come from data, education, and support. Because “skinny fat” is real. And sustainable health requires intention.

Orthorexia isn’t about caring too much about your health. It’s really about fear taking the lead.

When food becomes something you’re afraid to get wrong, when “clean” turns into rigid rules, when social media starts setting impossible standards, that’s when wellness stops being supportive and starts becoming stressful.

Karen Raden reminds us to slow down and ask better questions:

✔️ Who is this information coming from?
✔️ Are there real credentials or research behind it?
✔️ Does it actually make sense to you?
✔️ Is someone selling a quick fix?

She’s not anti-blogger. She’s pro-critical thinking.
And pro-nutrition that fits real life, not fear-based perfection.

If it sounds too good to be true, it usually is. And if it makes you anxious instead of empowered, that’s your cue to pause.

At Raden, we believe food should support your life, not control it. If you’re looking for support in your nutrition journey, Karen is here to help.
