👉 If you are a snacky person like me, you know how important it is to have high quality options on hand...becuase it's in those moments I find myself wanting quick fixes. Here are three of my favorite go-to snacks that give me energy and stamina to get through the day.

Most primary care doctors run basic panels—just enough to check if you fall within “normal” ranges. But normal doesn’t always mean optimal (which is our goal).

At Optimal You, our functional medicine testing digs much deeper. We look at detailed markers that uncover root causes, not just surface-level symptoms.

Because when we get better answers, you get better outcomes.

Chemical stress comes from more than just toxins—it’s the pesticides in our food, the additives in processed meals, the cleaners under our sink, and even the products we put on our skin. 🧴

When your body is overloaded, it can show up as:

Fatigue or brain fog 😴

Headaches or skin issues 🤕

Hormone imbalances or digestive troubles

The good news? There are safer options out there.

👉 Choose organic or whole foods when possible
👉 Swap chemical cleaners for natural alternatives
👉 Stay hydrated to flush toxins
👉 Support your body’s natural detox pathways

Your body is designed to heal—but it can’t do it if it’s constantly fighting hidden chemicals. Start small, and your future self will say "thank you."

Nature is a beautiful thing, especially when it comes to nutrition and supporting our body's overall wellness. Below you'll discover some foods that support your body's immune system naturally to help prevent inflammation and allergy-like responses, because we all know seasonal allergies can feel overwhelming!

🍯 Honey – Local raw honey may help your body adapt to pollen in your area. Try a teaspoon in warm tea or add add it to some warm water with fresh lemon juice. The benefits are oh-so powerful.

🍊 Vitamin C – This natural antihistamine reduces inflammation. Add foods like oranges (not orange juice with added sugar), bell peppers, kiwi, or broccoli to your meals to get more in your diet.

💚 Spirulina – A nutrient-dense blue-green algae shown to calm allergic responses. We recommend adding it into smoothies or mix into fresh juice.

🌿 Stinging Nettle – Nature’s antihistamine! Try it as a tea or take in capsule form for gentle daily support.

🍵 Green Tea – Packed with antioxidants and compounds that block histamine release. Sip one or two cups a day for both hydration and relief. You can drink warm green tea or enjoy a cup of matcha. Just be mindful of the ingredients you're using in addition to the green tea.

🥣 Bone Broth – Supports gut health, which is closely linked to immune balance. Ever heard of gut-brain health? Warm it up as a nourishing drink or use as a base for soups.

🍎 Apple Cider Vinegar – May help break up mucus and support digestion. Add a splash to water with lemon or use in homemade salad dressings.

🐟 Omega-3s – Anti-inflammatory fats that calm allergic reactions. Enjoy fatty fish (salmon, sardines), chia seeds, flaxseeds, or walnuts.

Small, consistent choices make a big difference. By weaving these foods into your lifestyle, you’re supporting your body’s natural defenses and finding relief the holistic way. To learn more great tips follow us on our social media platforms or give us a call to discover how to work with us to check your body's overall gut health.

Hi Mama!

As a new mom, the world of traditional medicine is oh so focused on you basic screenings rather than running the labs you truly need postpartum. That's right! Your P*P or OBGYN will not draw those necessary labs you truly need to understand your body after giving birth.

Does this sound familiar? You'll have one quick visit with your OBGYN 6 weeks after giving birth where they'll ask you about anxiety and depression and explain that your symptoms are "normal."

At Optimal You, we do things differently. In functional medicine, we look at the mom as a whole. We discuss nutrition, check on your thyroid, and run panels to get an in-depth view to identify any imbalances not only with hormones but other areas through out your body too. Then, we take those results to create a personalized care plan...just for you.

Let us say this again...your P*P and OBGYN might tell you everything’s 'normal,' but they're not drawing the labs you actually need postpartum.

So let's ask you this... How do they actually know what's going on underneath the surface?

Those emotional highs and lows, on-going exhaustion, low libido, and mental cloudiness? It’s not in your head, and it’s not just your "new norm." It’s your body's way of calling out for attention.

You deserve real answers, not unexplained symptoms.

Whether you just gave birth or your years down the road and still feel "off," it's never too late to get answers. We're here to help. Give us a call and we'll get you answers.

When we have conversations around protein, many individuals assume protein is for athletes or bodybuilders, but the truth is proteins are essential for every woman’s health and vitality.

Think eggs, lean meats, fish, beans, lentils, nuts, seeds, and high-quality protein powders.

Check it out some extra benefits and why we encourage women to eat healthy proteins.

✨ Hormone Balance – Protein supports stable blood sugar and reduces those energy crashes.
✨ Lean Muscle & Strength – Helps maintain muscle mass, keeping you strong and active at any age.
✨ Skin, Hair & Nails – Collagen and keratin (both proteins!) are the building blocks of healthy beauty from the inside out.
✨ Satiety & Metabolism – Keeps you fuller, longer, and helps regulate cravings.
✨ Healing & Recovery – Repairs tissues, especially important for women through different life stages (pregnancy, postpartum, menopause, and beyond).

At Optimal You, we believe women need consistent, quality protein sources to feel their best every single day. Remember, fueling your body is an essential form self-care. 💕
