I had the chance to speak at Retreat to the Heart this weekend, hosted by - A Dash of Love. A healing retreat for mothers held on the beautiful Two Bees & A Bud, Flower Farm 🪻

We gathered near the flower beds and talked about natural approaches to stress management under the theme “Ease the Heart"

It was a meaningful space to share and connect, and I’m grateful to have been invited into this circle of women. 💚 -Dr. Haley

4th generation garlic from our garden! 🧄 The bulbs are a bit smaller this year (we got a little lazy with the weeding), but they are still potent and very fragrant.

In naturopathic medicine, we use garlic in both food and supplement form to support heart health, immune function, digestion, and as a gentle antimicrobial.

Crushing garlic before eating it is key, as this activates its key compounds for maximum benefit.

We'll save about half of these bulbs to replant in the ground this fall before it freezes.

If you struggle with seasonal allergies and fresh produce suddenly bothers you when symptoms flare-up, it might not be a true food allergy - it could be Oral Allergy Syndrome (OAS).

In this post, we’ll walk you through what an anti-inflammatory diet can look like for allergy sufferers and how certain foods might cross-react with pollen.

Save this if you have seasonal allergies and have ever reacted to peaches, plums, melons, or raw veggies!

Here's your sign to plant milkweed in your yard if you want to see monarchs! 🦋

In herbal medicine, milkweed (Asclepias tuberosa, also called pleurisy root) was traditionally used in tiny doses to help clear chest congestion and support inflamed lungs during illness.

Because it’s so potent, this “low-dose herb” isn't used much anymore. And should only be used with caution and under the supervision of an experienced provider. It's a potent herbal medicine.

Clinical studies show that extra virgin olive oil's oleic acid and antioxidants reduce key inflammatory markers in the body. These compounds also protect LDL cholesterol from oxidation and improve blood vessel function.

Multiple research trials confirm these cardiovascular benefits, which is why naturopathic doctors consistently recommend the Mediterranean diet for heart disease prevention!

The science is clear that olive oil isn't just food, it's medicine.

How often do you take a walk outside?

stress management = heart protection

Managing stress isn't just good for your mental health. It directly impacts your cardiovascular system by lowering your blood pressure and reducing cortisol release.

Simple stress management can be one of your most powerful tools for heart health.

Not all fats are the same. Did you know that fats (lipids) are actually essential for your health? They fuel your body and help build cell membranes.

But, since fats don't mix with water, your body has tiny "taxis" called lipoproteins that transport them through your bloodstream.

Cholesterol gets a bad rap, but it's actually crucial for keeping your cell membranes flexible and healthy. The problem with cholesterol? When there's too much floating around, it can make your arteries stiff and increase your risk of heart disease.

The key is understanding that different types of lipoproteins have very different effects on your cardiovascular health. Some are protective, others not so much!

We run advanced cardiovascular testing and detailed lipoprotein markers to assess our patients' risk for heart disease. Schedule a free intro call to learn more.

Sunday at the Hopkins Raspberry Festival

First time at the Raspberry Run - 5 miles around Shady Oak Lake. Not winning any speed records but felt good to finish!

Little man ran the kids quarter-mile race. He loves to play chase with us at home, and the kid oriented races this summer have been so much fun for him!

Visited the renovated for food, then caught the always amazing parade down Mainstreet.

It was a good day out with the family! ✨

Curious about your hormones from a functional perspective?
The DUTCH test is one of our favorite tools for evaluating s*x and adrenal hormones, and it goes far beyond standard blood work.

We’re not just looking at estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone. This test evaluates:
-Hormone metabolites (how your body processes estrogen + androgens)
-Cortisol rhythm + stress response
-Potential nutrient gaps and antioxidant needs
-Clues about neurotransmitter support

We order this test all the time for patients who want deeper insight. If you’re ready to get yours, reach out and we’ll get you started!

Weekend harvest: fresh garlic scapes from our garden!

Cut them right at the base, tossed with olive oil, and roasted at 350°F for 8 minutes. It's so simple and delicious.

The garlic scapes are packed with allicin just like the bulbs, which research shows supports heart health, has antimicrobial properties, and helps lower cholesterol levels.

Garlic is one of the few vegetables the deer and rabbits actually leave alone in our yard.🦌🐰

The tender tops are the best part. The bottom can get a bit tough depending on when you harvest.

Such a satisfying way to get double duty from our garlic plants while we wait for the bulbs to mature at the end of the summer.

We hope you're having a lovely 4th of July weekend! 🌞
