What is the MMC?
The Migrating Motor Complex (MMC) is your digestive system’s “cleaning crew.” Between meals, it sends rhythmic waves through your small intestine to:
➡️ Sweep out leftover food and bacteria
➡️Prevent bacterial overgrowth (like SIBO)
➡️Support better nutrient absorption
➡️Reduce bloating, reflux, and indigestion.

Think of it as a housekeeper that only comes in when the kitchen is empty. If you keep snacking all day, it never gets the chance to do its job.

💩 Gut Health – clears out bacteria and food debris that cause bloating, gas, and reflux (GERD).
🥦 Nutrient Absorption – helps your small intestine reset so it can absorb vitamins and minerals efficiently.
⚖️ Metabolism & Weight – grazing all day can disrupt hormones, increase inflammation, and make it harder to maintain a healthy weight.
😫 GERD & Reflux – eating late at night or too close to bedtime increases pressure and acid backflow into the esophagus.

Simple Daily Practices:
1️⃣ Don’t Graze All Day – allow 3–4 hours between meals/snacks so your MMC can run a full cycle
2️⃣ Eat Most of Your Food Earlier – aim for your biggest meals before 5 pm, when digestion is most efficient.
3️⃣ No Late-Night Eating – finish eating 3–4 hours before bed to reduce reflux and improve sleep quality.
4️⃣ Stay Hydrated (Between Meals) – water helps MMC function, but avoid constant sipping with food.
5️⃣ Gentle Movement – walking after meals supports digestion and motility.
✨ Give your gut time to reset. By spacing meals, eating earlier, and closing the kitchen after dinner, you’ll support your MMC, reduce GERD, and improve nutrient absorption for whole-body health.

What’s the deal with weighted vests? 🦸‍♀️🦸‍♂️

Turns out, strapping on a weighted vest isn’t just a quirky fitness trend — there’s science for your long-term health. We all want more than “Life-span”. We want HEALTH-span ✨

📚Research shows:
🦴Bone health: Weighted vests put healthy stress on your skeleton, stimulating bone growth and helping reduce osteoporosis risk.
🩸Metabolic health: Extra load improves insulin sensitivity, supporting better blood sugar control and lowering type 2 diabetes risk.
🧠Brain health: Regular use is linked with reduced dementia risk by improving blood flow and maintaining lean muscle mass.
⚖️Weight maintenance: Studies show people using weighted vests keep off more weight long-term by preventing metabolic “slowdown.”
🫀Cardiovascular fitness: Walking or exercising with added weight makes your heart and lungs stronger without high-impact strain.

✨Something as simple as adding a vest to your walk can boost strength, protect your bones, support your brain, and help you age well.

So the next time you see someone power-walking in a vest — they’re not just working out, they’re working on their future HEALTH-span.

💊Before Your Blood Draw: Stop Certain Supplements…

Did you know some supplements can skew lab results? If you have upcoming bloodwork, especially for thyroid labs, vitamin levels, or heart enzymes (like troponin), it’s best to pause supplements for ~1 week beforehand unless your doctor tells you otherwise.

🛑 Stop these supplements 1 week before your next lab draw:
• Biotin (B7) → can falsely elevate or lower thyroid and troponin results.
• Multivitamins / individual vitamins (A, C, D, E, K, B-complex, etc.) → can alter nutrient level testing.
• Minerals (zinc, magnesium, iron, calcium, selenium, etc.) → may interfere with absorption and lab accuracy.
• High-dose herbal blends or specialty supplements → may impact liver, kidney, or hormone-related labs.
❓Why pause?
Labs are meant to measure your baseline. Stopping supplements helps ensure your results are accurate, so your provider can make the right treatment decisions.
❗️This only applies to supplements … NOT your medications
