Just wrapped an INCREDIBLE 90 minutes with almost 50 amazing people who are SERIOUS about their health! 💪
We went DEEP on inflammation - the stuff your regular doctor doesn’t tell you:
✅ Why your “healthy” cooking oils are creating MORE inflammation than junk food
✅ How your spine controls your entire inflammatory response
✅ The shocking truth about farmed vs wild fish (16x more inflammatory compounds!)
✅ Why that morning smoothie might be spiking your blood sugar higher than a donut
✅ How your body produces antioxidants 1000x more powerful than any supplement
✅ The real reason 60% of Americans have chronic disease (vs 10% in 1950)
✅ Natural foods that work better than prescription anti-inflammatories
The energy in that room was UNREAL! 🙌
People walked away with:
• A complete inflammation reset protocol
• Shopping lists for anti-inflammatory foods
• Supplement guidance that actually works
• Action steps they can start TODAY
This is why I do what I do - empowering people with REAL information so they can take control of their health instead of just “managing” symptoms forever.
When you understand what’s really happening in your body, everything changes.
Your body isn’t broken - it just needs the right stuff!

Just saw this and it was so well written that I didn't need to write something myself for a change...Kudos to Brain Dooley.

He died on this day in 1961. Quietly, as men of great noise sometimes do. His name was Bartlett Joshua Palmer. B.J. if you knew the work. The Developer of Chiropractic. The one who took his father’s wild seed and planted an orchard.

He was not easy. Giants rarely are. He clashed and carved and coaxed the world to see what he saw—a principle, a purpose, a profession. He built a school, he built a radio station, he built a legacy. He spoke in riddles and roared in print. He walked fast and thought faster.

Some say he was mad. Some say he was messianic. Most forget how much of their practice still bears his fingerprints.

Today, many have never heard of him. And some who have, don’t remember right.

But if you’ve ever turned your headpiece to the atlas and listened for the quiet wind of innate, you owe something to the man who insisted there was more to healing than the surface of things.

So here’s to B.J. Palmer.
A chiropractor, yes.
But more than that—
A stubborn voice in the wilderness who kept shouting long enough for the rest of us to hear.

We carry on.

HOW DO YOU KNOW IF YOUR GUT IS DAMAGED? 🤔⤵️

As we like to remind our patients … symptoms are an expression of an underlying issue. And by the time you notice issues, it’s taken its toll.

🧠 Brain fog, anxiety, depression, ADHD
💪 Joint pain, fibromyalgia, arthritis
🦠 Chronic infections, autoimmune issues
⚡️ Thyroid problems (Hashimoto’s, hypothyroidism)
🌿 Skin conditions (eczema, psoriasis, rosacea)
😴 Fatigue and adrenal issues
🤧 Frequent colds, poor immunity

Here’s what you need to know: Your gut houses 70% of your immune system and produces 90% of serotonin - as well as GABA, dopamine, and other important neurotransmitters. Your gut bacteria are essential for nutrient absorption too!

They help with:
• Converting fiber into Short-Chain Fatty Acids (SCFAs)
• Synthesizing B vitamins (B1, B9, B12)
• Producing Vitamin K
• Breaking down complex carbohydrates
• Metabolizing bile for fat absorption

When damaged, it creates systemic inflammation that affects EVERY system in your body.

Studies show that gut permeability (“leaky gut”) is linked to:
• Autoimmune diseases (Journal of Autoimmunity, 2020)
• Mental health disorders (Nature Microbiology, 2019)
• Chronic inflammation (Clinical Gastroenterology, 2021)

The good news? THE BODY HEALS. Gut health CAN be restored! 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

I offer comprehensive gut healing programs that start with a comprehensive consultation to identify YOUR specific triggers - from past medications to lifestyle factors. We can run specialized testing if needed and create a personalized restoration plan.

Ready to get to the root of your gut issues? Message me today to start your healing journey. Your whole body & life will thank you!!

Just featured in Voyage Minnesota! 🙌

If you've ever wondered about my path to becoming a chiropractor, or why I'm so passionate about what I do at Minnetonka Family Chiropractic, this interview covers it all.

From my own health struggles as an athlete to building a practice focused on finding the root cause of health issues, I share the ups and downs of this journey.

I'd be honored if you took a few minutes to check it out! And as always, I'm grateful for this amazing community that makes what I do possible.

👆Mind bending … Right? 😉

Ok.. maybe it makes sense.

But name a drug, or any combo of drugs that has that impact… I’ll wait 🦗

At this point - there’s no secret… one of the most powerful medicines isn’t found in a pharmacy - it’s found in the weight room. ✊✊

Check out these numbers from recent research:
• 41% LOWER risk of ICU admission
• 45% REDUCED chance of needing ventilator support
• 42% DECREASE in overall mortality risk

It’s not just about building muscle or what you see in the mirror. When you consistently resistance train, you’re literally reprogramming your body at every physiological level:

The Healing Cascade:
• Triggers production of myokines (your body’s natural medicine)
• Enhances mitochondrial function
• Optimizes/balances hormone production
• Activates longevity pathways (I.e genetic expression)

Think of it like this: Every time you lift weights, you’re not just building strength - you’re sending a powerful signal to every cell in your body to become more resilient.

More adaptations your body will naturally acquire:
• Insulin sensitivity improves by up to 40%
• Bone density increases significantly
• Brain-derived growth factors surge
• Inflammation markers drop
• Stress hormones regulate

Annnnnnnd no… : You don’t need to become a gym rat to get these benefits!

Simple Starting Protocol:
✓ 2-3 sessions per week
✓ 30-45 minutes each
✓ Focus on major movements
✓ Progressive improvement

Remember: Your body is DESIGNED to move and adapt. Whether you’re 25 or 85, your cells respond to proper resistance training by becoming stronger and more resilient.

Spring is right around the corner!! (We... hope ;)

Start armoring yourself with natural ways to improve your immune system, and subsequently, your response to environmental allergens.

Enjoy :)

Let’s talk about something that’s affecting more people than ever before – allergies. The statistics are staggering: 50 million Americans suffer from allergies, and that number is growing every year. But here’s what’s even more concerning: Despite spending billions on allergy medications, ...

A compound that has been healing people since the beginning of time...

Beyond skin-deep: How collagen shapes everything from brain function to gut health. New research reveals this protein's surprising role in whole-body wellness and longevity.

In the world of health and wellness, few proteins are as fascinating and vital as collagen. As the most abundant protein in our bodies, collagen serves as the fundamental building block that quite literally holds us together.
