Eating seasonally supports your health (and the planet)🌎

Eating with the seasons isn’t just trendy—it’s backed by science. Seasonal produce is harvested at its nutritional peak, meaning higher levels of vitamins, antioxidants, and phytonutrients compared to foods that are shipped long distances or stored for months.

For example, winter squash is rich in beta-carotene to support immune health during colder months, while summer berries deliver antioxidants that help combat oxidative stress from sun exposure.

Beyond nutrition, seasonal eating supports local agriculture, reduces the carbon footprint of food transport, and helps you reconnect with the natural rhythm of food cycles.

Resting for the correct amount of time can make or break your workout. 🏋️

To maximize results, try timing your rest time between sets.

For those mostly focused on increasing muscle mass— resting for 30-90 seconds is best. This goes by quickly if you are checking your phone and changing your music around, or talking to a friend between sets! Therefore, starting to time your rest period can really increase intensity.

For those focusing on maximum strength, resting for 2-3 minutes allows your muscles to fully recover to perform at the highest level for your next set.

Feeling exhausted all the time and not sure why?

First, we do recommend making sure you are getting plenty of sleep—aiming for at least 7-8 hours per night. But sometimes that fatigue has an underlying cause!

Here are some labs we recommend testing to check for underlying causes of fatigue:

1. Complete blood count 🩸— this checks for anemia or ongoing infections (red and white blood cell counts)

2. Iron levels— iron is responsible for transporting oxygen throughout the body, if your levels are low, it’s likely you’ll feel a lack of energy

3. Vitamin D— deficiency is very common, especially in winter months, and is related to fatigue and worsened mental health ☀️

4. Thyroid stimulating hormone— this is an indicator of thyroid health, which drives your energy and metabolism!

Snack with purpose! A snack should provide a combination of nutritious foods, designed to keep you satiated until your next meal.

Pair a traditional carb-based snack like fruit, crackers, or popcorn with a high protein food or healthy fat to optimize satiety! These are some of our favorites. Remember—protein, fiber, and healthy fats all work to slow down gastric emptying (keeping your belly full!)

Your mindset doesn’t just shape how you feel—it also shapes how your body functions.

A systematic review of 94,000+ participants found a strong link between positive psychological well-being and lower levels of inflammation in the body (measured by IL-6 and CRP).

Why does this matter? Chronic inflammation is connected to many health concerns, from heart disease to autoimmune conditions. This research suggests that cultivating joy, gratitude, optimism, and resilience isn’t just “feel-good advice”—it’s a powerful part of supporting long-term health.

So here’s your reminder today: take that walk in the sun, text a loved one, journal what you’re grateful for, laugh a little louder. These small choices can ripple into meaningful changes at the cellular level.

5 Foods Backed by Science for Brain Health:

1. Berries – Rich in anthocyanins and flavonoids that reduce oxidative stress and support memory.

2. Salmon – A top source of omega-3 fatty acids (EPA + DHA), critical for neuronal structure and function.

3. Dark Chocolate – Contains flavanols that improve cerebral blood flow and may enhance cognitive performance.

4. Walnuts – Provide alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) and polyphenols that support neuroprotection.

5. Eggs – Packed with choline, a key nutrient for neurotransmitter synthesis, vital for learning and memory.

Don’t forget—nutrition is a powerful tool for improving and enhancing your ability to focus!

Did you know your vitamin D status may influence your risk of catching the flu?

A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials found that people with higher vitamin D levels had about a 22% lower risk of influenza infection compared to those with lower levels.
Vitamin D supports immune function, helping your body respond more effectively to infections. While it’s not a replacement for other preventive measures, keeping your levels in a healthy range may offer extra protection!

Ask your doctor to check your vitamin D levels at your annual checkup. We get vitamin D from sunlight, so your risk of running low increases as we roll into fall and winter months. Food sources of vitamin D include fatty fish, milk and dairy, eggs, and fortified foods.

Three herbs and spices with clinically studied benefits:

🟡 Turmeric (Curcuma longa): Contains the bioactive polyphenol curcumin, which has been shown in studies to reduce inflammation, and support joint, brain, and cardiovascular health.

🧄 Garlic (Allium sativum): Rich in sulfur-containing compounds like allicin, which may improve endothelial function, reduce blood pressure, and provide antimicrobial effects.

🌱 Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis): A source of carnosic acid and rosmarinic acid, antioxidants linked to enhanced cognitive performance, neuroprotection, and digestive support.

Incorporating these herbs and spices into your diet may provide synergistic benefits for long-term health

One of the biggest game-changers on a weight loss journey?

Choosing protein-rich snacks that keep you satisfied, support your metabolism, and help you hit your nutrition goals.

Unlike quick carb-based snacks that leave you hungry an hour later, protein slows digestion, stabilizes blood sugar, and keeps you feeling full for longer. This is especially helpful if you’re on a GLP-1 medication, since pairing protein with fiber supports steady energy and reduces side effects like nausea.
Here are 4 easy high-protein snacks you can add to your day:

⭐️Hard-boiled eggs – About 6 g protein each. Portable, easy, and packed with nutrients like vitamin B12 and choline.

⭐️String cheese – Around 6–7 g protein per stick. A grab-and-go option that pairs well with fruit for fiber.

⭐️Cottage cheese toast – ~12 g protein per ½ cup. Top with veggies or fruit for a balanced bite.

⭐️Greek yogurt – 10–15 g protein per serving. Add berries or chia seeds for extra fiber and antioxidants.

Tip: Aim to include protein + fiber in every snack to keep your hunger in check and your energy steady throughout the day.

Which one of these snacks is your go-to?

A comprehensive exercise routine should integrate strength, cardiovascular, and mobility training—each targets different physiological systems that support long-term health:

1️⃣ Strength Training
Stimulates muscle protein synthesis, helping preserve lean mass and bone mineral density. Research shows it reduces sarcopenia risk, supports glucose regulation, and increases resting metabolic rate.

2️⃣ Cardiovascular Training
Enhances aerobic capacity (VO₂ max), improves endothelial function, and supports mitochondrial efficiency. Regular cardio is strongly linked to lower risk of cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, and all-cause mortality.

3️⃣ Mobility & Flexibility Training
Improves neuromuscular control and joint range of motion, decreasing injury risk and maintaining independence with aging. Evidence suggests mobility-focused training can reduce musculoskeletal pain and improve movement efficiency.

When combined, these exercise types optimize musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, and neuromotor health—creating a foundation for both performance and healthy aging.

Three Polyphenols to Add to Your Diet

1-Reservatrol-Reseveratrol is a pigment found in dark purple and red fruits (think berries), with studies showing benefits for reducing blood pressure, and potentially preventing cognitive decline.

2-Anthocyanins—These are found in dark blue and purple fruits and vegetables. Their benefits include antioxidant activity, reduced inflammation, reducing blood pressure by improving our production of nitric oxide! Research also shows a significant reduction in risk of type 2 diabetes when increasing your intake of these colored fruits and veggies by just 1-2 ounces!

3–Curcumin is the active ingredient found in turmeric, a spice commonly used in south asian cuisine! Another anti-inflammatory, pigment, cucurmin has research to support it’s efficacy for relieving pain and inflammation in arthritis.

Consider adding these colorful fruits and herbs into your routine for less inflammation and added benefits!
