In this crazy schedule-full time of year, our health often gets pushed on the backburner and exercise can get pushed to the bottom. But it doesn't need to be all or nothing. No time to hit the gym? Do some squats, rock out to a song, walk outside for a few minutes. Some is better than nothing and can help break up the stress of the day (not to mention help with blood sugar control and give you brain a break from everything).

I just had someone tell me that after a few glasses of wine she noticed her whole body felt crummy for two days-poor sleep, joint pain, brain fog, headaches, just feeling bleh. She previously hadn't realized how much alcohol affected her until she started paying more attention to the signals her body was giving her.

I hear this all the time.

But, tis the season of holiday parties, family gatherings and a whole lot of stress. While most of us at this point probably know that alcohol doesn't do our bodies a whole lot of favors, there are times when we still want to enjoy and partake in a glass or too. If the mocktails aren't doing it for you (and there are lots of good ones out there these days) and you want to have a drink , go for it! But try out some of these tips to decrease the negative affects on your body.

Also, as you start to make shifts in your lifestyle, you start to notice your body signals more and more and you may just find that it's not worth how you feel afterwards.

So whether or not you have a drink this holiday season, let it be your decision (and not to be talked into or out of something you don't really want) and own that decision and enjoy whatever route you go.

Cheers!

How many times have you gone in to your doctor and gotten some labs done, only to be told that everything looked fine and sent on your way? I hear this almost every single day from my clients and people in my life.

Or my favorite, "Well, things look a little off but let's recheck it in 6 months and see if things have gotten better or worse." Cause that sounds like a solid health plan.

Looking at labs from a functional medicine perspectives means looking at how your multiple body systems are working together, not just focused in on the one area that seems to be screaming at you. It also means looking to achieve optimal levels, not the American average. By taking this perspective, we can help bring balance into your body and address issues before they become irreversible as well as help to identify what is driving your symptoms.

Variety in our diet isn't just to keep us from getting bored. It's also feeding our gut microbiome the diversity it needs for optimal health. 30 sound impossible? It's not as hard as it sounds. Spices, herbs and grains also count beyond fruits and vegetables. 👉Next time you're at the store, pick a new piece of produce to add into the mix. Your little gut microbes will thank you.

Blood sugar dysregulation (spikes and crashes) is a major factor in mood changes, weight loss resistance and hormonal imbalances. What you eat plays a huge role in this but the order of what you eat can also can affect it. Starting off your meal with your protein and vegetables first and finishing it was your other carbohydrates will help reduce blood sugar sikes after eating.

In the world of constant information overload, endless supplements and hard-to-keep-up-with trends, it's easy to overcomplicate things. While there is absolutely a time and place for structure and a detailed plan, the vast majority of health comes from mastering the foundations of healthy living. And often, less is more when it comes to health concerns. Let's keep our health as simple as we can, but tailored to what YOU need (not the latest best thing).

Be the heroine in your own story. Don't wait for someone else to fix you. And don't blame everyone else for things going wrong (even though it sure may be tempting.)
You've got this 💪

Not getting help from the traditional medical model? Looking at your health under a new, broader lens, may be what you're missing.

Variety is the spice of life. It's also a huge factor for good gut health. When you eat different foods, you are feeding your microbiome with the diversity it needs. It's amazing how many of us end up eating the same few foods every single day. And while it may be a "healthy" diet, if it doesn't have enough variety in it and I often see a huge lack in beneficial bacteria on testing which greatly impairs your body to protect itself and thrive.

Aim for at least 30 different plants species per week for good gut health (herbs and spices count)
