💛Why So Many Families Are Switching to DPC (Direct Primary Care)

Imagine a doctor who actually knows you.

More time. More support. Same-day visits. No rushed appointments. No hidden fees.

That’s what Direct Primary Care (DPC) at Sozo is all about.

Here’s why patients love DPC:

✔️ Unlimited visits — in person or virtual
✔️ Direct access to Dr. Young (yes, texting your doctor)
✔️ No copays, no surprise bills
✔️ Whole-person care with lifestyle medicine at the center
✔️ More time for questions, education, and support
✔️ Perfect for families without traditional insurance

If you’ve ever felt unheard or rushed in a traditional system… DPC is different.

It’s care that’s personal, proactive, and centered on YOU.

Want to understand if it's a fit for your family? Send us a message — we’re happy to help.

P.S. It pays to have a mom who can stitch you up when needed 😉

☀️Why Vitamin D Matters More Than You Think☀️

Did you know that nearly 1 in 3 adults are low in Vitamin D?

This powerful nutrient acts more like a hormone than a vitamin, and it plays a major role in:

✨ Stronger immunity
✨ Better mood + reduced anxiety
✨ Hormone balance
✨ Lower inflammation
✨ Stronger bones + muscles
✨ Better sleep

And because many of us spend most of our time indoors, it's easy to fall short.

At Sozo Lifestyle Medicine, we check your Vitamin D levels and help you get them where they need to be. The goal is raising them from the sun, 20 minutes in the morning (before noon) is most beneficial. But if that’s not enough, we can figure out a supplement plan.

☀️ Feeling fatigued? Getting sick often? Mood all over the place?
It might be your Vitamin D.

🥣 Are you getting your daily BBGS?

Beans. Berries. Greens. Seeds.

These simple, powerful foods can completely transform your health when eaten regularly — and fall is the perfect time to refocus on the basics. 🍂

Here’s why BBGS matter:
🫘 Beans – Packed with fiber and plant-based protein to stabilize blood sugar and support gut health.
🫐 Berries – Antioxidant-rich powerhouses that fight inflammation and protect brain function.
🥬 Greens – Support detoxification, boost energy, and nourish your cells with essential vitamins.
🌻 Seeds – Tiny but mighty! Full of healthy fats, zinc, and magnesium for hormone and heart health.

👉 Tip: Try adding at least one of each to your meals every day — a handful of berries in your oatmeal, spinach in your smoothie, beans on your salad, and seeds sprinkled on top.

Small, consistent choices lead to big results.

Your body (and microbiome) will thank you! 🌿
