A little "Monday" reminder that sometimes we need to just stop and breathe: to take a mental break from what's going on in the world.

We can't pour from an empty cup. Try to find ways during the day to fill up your cup, feed your soul instead of feeding stress with cortisol 24/7.

Here's a gentle reminder to step away from stress and take at least 5 minutes to walk outside, listen to music or simply watch this on autoplay. 🐳🌞

Today's a GREAT day for fresh pressed Walk of Life Juice!

Hey folks! Last night we got word that the Sandusky Farmers Market was cancelled. Soooo I have a LOT of juice and would LOVE to see you here at 135 E Water St. downtown during normal market hours, 8-noon. Come see the juciery and chat with owner, operator and 9-time employee of the month ME!! (Don’t want to hassle with the car show? Let me know where you’re parked and I’ll run it over to you!) Just look for my terrible handwriting on my little sign in front of the building. ❤️- your friendly neighborhood juice guy

Big shout out to the City of Sandusky for investing in our beautiful Historic Downtown. Can you believe the changes that have been made in only a short period of time?

In the many years we've been there, we have recently seen (and felt) the city come back to life and are proud to have our office right in the middle of all this activity. So happy to have new neighbors like Coveted by Cher, Vita Sandusky and others that are popping up to help make our downtown a vibrant place to visit. Can't wait to see what the future holds!

Want some ice cream to beat this summer heat?

This one is without the added refined sugars and full of natural whole food ingredients, a nice option to cut the sugar but still enjoy the treat!

Recipe:

- Thinly slice bananas and transfer them to a large, resealable plastic freezer bag, let freeze over night.

- Chop it up. In a food processor/blender, pulse frozen bananas until finely chopped

- Add some sweetness; a little coconut water with a squeeze of maple syrup.

- Process until smooth, scraping sides as needed.

Top with some crushed pistachios, dried cranberries or any other nutritious topping and ENJOY this 'nice' healthy summer treat!

The body's innate ability to heal is determined by the strength and integrity of it's immune system. When that system is strong it has the ability to heal the body all on it's own!

- Female/Male Hormone Testing
- Comprehensive Toxic & Heavy Metals Elements Profile
- Micronutrient Deficiency Testing w/Immunity & Antioxidant Profile (T cell measurement)

We get excited about celery around here because we believe celery juice is an essential component to digestive wellness! The benefits include; it is super hydrating, low in sugar and contains anti-inflammatory properties.

And since we all know that true health and immunity begins in our gut where digestion happens, this is something to celebrate!

Raising a refreshing glass of celery juice on this beautiful morning, cheers!

*a pro tip: use organic celery when making your juice!

A study from Genetic Research has shown that a healthy inflammatory response is an essential part of the body’s healing process. Yet ongoing inflammation can actually contribute to a wide range of common conditions. Genetic research has now identified low vitamin D levels with high levels of inflammation. This means that low vitamin D could become a key biomarker to help measure the risk of and the severity of chronic pathologies with an inflammatory component. {Biotics Research}

Testing for your Vitamin D levels with a specialized micronutrient test can give you great insight to your body's level of Vitamin D; work with your functional medicine doctor before supplementing on your own to ensure the correct type and amount of clinical Vitamin D that will be most beneficial for your body!

We can tell you this about getting Vitamin D, right now is the best time to get it naturally, in the SUN! ☀

Research estimates that over 90% of illness and disease is stress related.

In Functional Medicine, we consider stress that causes anxiety is a symptom of underlying issues to which we need to seek the root of the problem.

Knowing for sure what the root cause is can be obvious given the current temperature of the world right now, however what most do not realize is that there may also be other underlying factors causing stress.

Things like vitamin deficiencies are known to trigger anxiety and panic attacks.

The best way to know for sure is to have an evaluation by a trained professional in Functional Medicine.

Sometimes treatment recommendations come in the forms of nutrient dense supplementation, gut health restoration or sessions with energy medicine.

The good news is there is treatment that can help.

Whether you choose to take that next step in seeking the help is up to you. We are here to help.

In order to understand hormone health it helps to know how hormones work!

Hormones work because they signal receptors to do the job the body needs them to do in order to function properly.

They signal;
- our genes
- the cells of our body
- and it's been know that nutrients determine how long hormones sit in these receptor sites.

So, if we have the right nutrients, hormones will sit in the receptor sites long enough to send optimal signals to its' target inside our cells.

However, those receptor sites can be blocked by things like environmental toxins (pollutants, plastics, heavy metals, xenoestrogens, etc) which are all around us and wreaking havoc on our hormones.

Hormone levels can be normal, but if you're still having symptoms related to hormonal issues, it could be that your receptor sites are blocked and not being signaled.

Addressing adequate nutrient consumption and toxic load would be a great place to start with hormone health!

Hydration is SO incredibly important, especially in this summer heat! 🙂

Pure clean water nurtures all the systems in the body. Research shows that over 70% of people are chronically dehydrated and they don't even realize it!

So we wanted to drop some tips for you to hopefully encourage you to be mindful of your water intake daily.

- Add some lemon love, it will also support your body's detox pathways

-Eat your veggies & fruit, they pack a hydrating punch; especially celery, cucumbers and watermelon.

-Make it part of your morning ritual, drink down a large glass first thing in the morning, even before you brush your teeth!

-Get herb-y; try adding peppermint, lemongrass, lavender or even cilantro.

-Keep track! At least for a week or so to see just how much you're getting in. A good benchmark to hit is 70oz daily, at a minimum!

We cannot stress this enough: GUT HEALTH IS SO IMPORTANT!

The condition of your gut determines the strength of your immune system and its ability to fight or ward off disease and illness. It determines if your body is absorbing the nutrients that you are feeding it as well.

Most of our patients get tested for micronutrient deficiencies. This is a vital step of our treatment plan when helping you reach optimal health. When we have this dynamic and specific roadmap of your body's nutrient outline, then we can see where to fix and then fill in the holes.

That's where the rubber meets the road and when we start to see significant positive changes for our clients.

If you don't test for what you are missing, how do you know what you are missing out on?

We would love to help you dive deeper into your health this year! Call or text our office today for a consultation, if you've been thinking about it, DO IT, our calendar year of patients is filling up fast 🤍
