This one will make or break your health! Consequences of low Vitamin D can impact far more than your bones. Even the CDC recognizes this major problem.

Vitamin D is actually a hormone precursor that regulates over 1,000 genes in the body. It plays major roles in:

Calcium absorption & bone mineralization 🦴

Mood regulation (linked to serotonin production) 😌

Immune function — especially innate defense against viruses & bacteria 🦠

Metabolic health and insulin sensitivity 🔄

Muscle strength and recovery 💪

Vitamin D deficiency has been linked to:

Depression and seasonal affective disorder (SAD)

Osteopenia & osteoporosis

Autoimmune conditions (like MS, rheumatoid arthritis)

Increased risk of infections

Low energy and brain fog

At Resolute Integrative Health, we routinely test Vitamin D levels in our patients and use evidence-based supplementation strategies to restore optimal health.

🔍 Key insight: Functional medicine targets optimal ranges, not just “normal” ones. We aim for 50–80 ng/mL of serum 25(OH)D — not just above the deficiency line of 30. Interestingly, my CDC source also states on page 173 that rages between 50-75 are sufficient but conventional medicine doctors often ignore this issue if it is “”normal”” above 30.

💡 Tip: Supplementing with D3 (not D2!) in oil-based softgels improves absorption — and it should always be taken with dietary fat. It is important to combined this with K2.

🌿 You deserve vibrant, energized health — and sometimes it starts with correcting a simple deficiency. What is your level? Have you ever had this tested?

Come get to know me! And please share this…a lot of my previous patients have no idea I am still in the area - something I had no control over. Sad right?

I am the owner and primary care provider behind Resolute Integrative Health. I opened our Rogue River health center due to a deep desire to serve our region with integrity and quality.

I have been in the medical world since I was 17…so going on 25 years of service. I became interested in healthcare after I had been misdiagnosed and later found to have a rare cancer at age 15 (I’m fine).

I was an RN for 13 years before becoming an NP. Much of my time was in the ER and as a SANE nurse. I realized that so many things could be avoided if people had better resources…it would be good if we could prevent things from happening or getting worse. That is what brought me to primary care and eventually to offering integrative services.

My NP time includes working with very sick people at La Clinica, I was the medical director at their walk in clinic, and I even mentored other new NPs. I also worked at a local integrative clinic before going out on my own. My Doctorate focused heavily on mental health care in the primary care setting and quality improvement in general.

I love learning about holistic and functional medicine approaches and am an advocate for supporting hormones and longevity care. I continue to increase my education to offer these services soon.

I have been married for 24 years, have three kids ages 14, 17, and 22, and we are a first responder family. We have a little farm, animals and even bees!

I am a Rogue River resident, am very active in the community on both the Evans Valley Fire department board and chair of the Rogue River School District board. I believe strongly in civic duty.

I am accepting direct primary care patients. I also offer men’s and women’s hormone care, medical weight loss and very soon will be offering formal functional medicine packages.

Like and follow if you want to keep up with what we are doing. I love to teach and won’t be holding back!

🚨 Struggling with weight loss? It’s NOT just about “eating less and moving more.” Most people unknowingly sabotage their progress by ignoring key functional medicine principles.

⚡ Here are 3 major weight loss mistakes you might be making (and how to fix them!):

❌ 1. Ignoring Blood Sugar & Insulin Resistance
Many people focus on calories but overlook blood sugar regulation. Chronic insulin spikes lead to fat storage, cravings, and energy crashes. Instead of relying on low-calorie diets, focus on balancing your blood sugar with whole, nutrient-dense foods and prioritizing protein, fiber, and healthy fats.

❌ 2. Overlooking Hidden Stress & Cortisol Dysfunction
Your body doesn’t care if your stress comes from work, workouts, or emotional burnout—it responds by raising cortisol, which increases belly fat, cravings, and inflammation. Chronic stress can also disrupt thyroid function and slow metabolism. Managing stress through adaptogens, breathwork, quality sleep, and proper movement is just as important as diet!

❌ 3. Not Addressing Gut Health & Inflammation
Your gut microbiome directly impacts metabolism, hormones, and fat storage. An imbalance (dysbiosis), leaky gut, or chronic inflammation can cause weight loss resistance, bloating, and fatigue. Functional medicine focuses on healing the gut first by removing inflammatory foods, replenishing good bacteria, and restoring optimal digestion.

🔥 Weight loss isn’t just about cutting calories—it’s about balancing hormones, gut health, and metabolism naturally.
