🧬 New Study Reveals How Fiber Protects Against Sugar Damage

A groundbreaking study from UC Irvine’s School of Medicine has uncovered how dietary fiber—specifically inulin found in onions, garlic, and artichokes—can protect your body from the harmful effects of sugar, particularly fructose. 🧠💪

Researchers discovered that inulin alters gut bacteria, enabling them to metabolize fructose in the small intestine before it reaches the liver. This process helps prevent liver fat buildup and other metabolic issues. Even more impressive, the study suggests that inulin can reverse signs of fatty liver disease and enhance liver antioxidant activity. 🌿

This revelation underscores the importance of fiber in our diets—not just for digestion, but as a powerful ally in metabolic health. It also highlights the potential of personalized nutrition strategies and supplements to protect against liver stress, insulin resistance, and related conditions such as diabetes, obesity, and even cancer. 🥦🍎

At Wasatch Functional Medicine, we emphasize the role of nutrition in maintaining health. This study reinforces our approach to supporting metabolic health through diet and lifestyle.

If you’ve noticed brain fog or mood changes during menopause — you’re not imagining it. Your brain is deeply connected to your hormones. Small, consistent changes can make a big difference. At Wasatch Functional Medicine our goal is to support you through this life transition. Contact our office to schedule your FREE consultation at 801.332.9034.

Menopause isn’t the end of something — it’s a powerful transition. ✨

You officially reach menopause when it’s been 12 consecutive months since your last period. At this stage, your ovaries stop releasing eggs and estrogen and progesterone levels stay consistently low.

These hormonal changes can bring:
🔥 Hot flashes & night sweats
💤 Sleep disruptions
💭 Mood changes or brain fog
💧 Vaginal dryness
⚖️ Shifts in metabolism and weight

But here’s the truth — you don’t have to just “live with it.” Through functional medicine, nutrition, and hormone support, women can feel balanced, strong, and vibrant again.

This phase is your opportunity to reconnect with your body, nurture your health, and step into your next chapter with confidence. Contact our office for additional information Wasatch Functional Medicine 801.332.9034.

🍁 October at Wasatch Functional Medicine: Gentle Transitions. Deep Support. Whole-Body Wellness.

October always seems to arrive with a quiet invitation: slow down, come inside, and take stock. As the air cools and the leaves begin to turn, we’re reminded that change doesn’t have to be dramatic to be meaningful. Sometimes, the most powerful shifts come from simply giving your body what it’s asking for—whether that’s more rest, more nourishment, or just a bit more attention.

This month, we’re not talking about detoxing, restricting, or starting over.

We’re focusing on adding support, building resilience, and nourishing what’s already working—so your body can continue to show up for you, season after season.

Join us for a class or experience to add support and nourishment to your body and soul!

Mindfulness is not a luxury — it’s a necessity.

In a world that constantly demands more, going on autopilot feels normal. But your nervous system wasn't built for constant stress. Your mind and body need pause, presence, and peace.

🧘‍♀️ Practicing mindfulness isn’t just about being calm — it’s about being well. It helps:

✨ Reduce anxiety and chronic stress
🩺 Lower blood pressure and improve heart health
😴 Improve sleep and focus
🧠 Support brain health and emotional balance

Mindfulness isn’t a trend — it’s a vital tool for resilience, clarity, and long-term health.

Start small. Breathe. Notice. Be here.
Your health depends on it.

Feeling constantly tired, wired, or burned out? It could be your adrenals. Let’s break down the 3 phases of adrenal dysfunction and why they matter. 👇

💥 Phase 1: Alarm Phase (Wired & Tired)
Your body is in high alert—pumping out cortisol to handle constant stress. You might feel anxious, jittery, or have trouble sleeping. Energy crashes later in the day are common.

⚖️ Phase 2: Resistance Phase (Running on Empty)
Cortisol is still being produced but starts to dip and fluctuate. You feel like you're “pushing through” every day. Brain fog, sugar cravings, and disrupted sleep may kick in.

😴 Phase 3: Burnout Phase (Flatlined)
Now the adrenals are tapped out. Cortisol is low. You're exhausted all the time, possibly depressed, and even getting sick more often. It’s your body saying: enough is enough.

🛑 The good news? Recovery is possible—with the right support, lifestyle changes, and stress management.

✨ Listen to your body. It’s not lazy. It’s overwhelmed.

Omega-3s are essential polyunsaturated fatty acids that play a critical role in numerous physiological functions—and your body can’t produce them on its own. That’s why dietary intake is vital.

🔬 Clinically Supported Health Benefits of Omega-3s:

❤️ Cardiovascular Health:
Omega-3s (especially EPA & DHA) help lower triglyceride levels, reduce blood pressure, improve endothelial function, and may reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke.

🧠 Cognitive Function & Mental Health:
DHA is a key structural component of brain tissue. Adequate intake has been linked to improved memory, focus, and reduced risk of neurodegenerative diseases. EPA may help reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety.

🔥 Anti-Inflammatory Effects:
Omega-3s modulate inflammatory pathways and may reduce symptoms in chronic inflammatory conditions like rheumatoid arthritis and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

🫐 Nutrient Absorption:
As fat-soluble nutrients, Omega-3s enhance the absorption of vitamins A, D, E, and K—supporting immune function, bone health, and antioxidant activity. Consuming Omega-3s with meals can improve overall micronutrient uptake.

🍽️ Satiety & Weight Management:
Omega-3s may support appetite regulation by increasing levels of satiety hormones (like leptin and peptide YY) and stabilizing blood sugar levels. This can lead to reduced cravings and improved energy balance, aiding in healthy weight maintenance.

Dietary Sources of Omega-3s:
Marine sources (rich in EPA & DHA): Salmon, Mackerel, Sardines, Herring, Anchovies

Plant-based sources (rich in ALA): Chia seeds, Flaxseeds, H**p seeds, Walnuts

Vegan supplement option: Algal oil (a direct source of DHA)
