Eat low-carb or avoid fruit because of digestive problems? These are two scenarios where vitamin C intake can be low.

Studies find that the recommended intakes may be too low, so meeting the RDA might not be enough. Intake that is above the RDA can still be low enough to cause gum bleeding, for example: https://academic.oup.com/nutritionreviews/advance-article-abstract/doi/10.1093/nutrit/nuaa115/6124136?redirectedFrom=fulltext

Curious about your status for vitamin C and other nutrients? I run micronutrient testing in my practice! Feel free to contact me for a free call to discuss if you might benefit from it.

This month doesn’t have to be measured by how much you pushed, restricted, or “fixed.” Real progress often looks quieter — choosing support over pressure, nourishment over urgency, and understanding over self-criticism.

At Thrive Clinics, we believe health isn’t built through force. It’s built through steady care, trust in your body, and guidance that works with your biology, not against it. As you move into the next month, let care — not control — lead the way.

If your body feels different in winter, you’re not imagining it — and you’re not broken. ❄️🌿

Seasonal changes affect hormone balance for everyone. Shorter days, colder temperatures, and increased stress can influence cortisol, thyroid function, and s*x hormones, impacting energy, mood, sleep, and metabolism.

At Thrive Clinics, we view these shifts through a functional lens. Instead of pushing your body harder, we focus on supporting it — with personalized nutrition, stress care, and hormone-informed primary care for both women and men. Winter isn’t a setback; it’s a season that asks for steadier support.

Diet culture gets louder in January — but that doesn’t mean it’s healthier. 🌿

The pressure to “reset,” restrict, or overhaul your body can increase anxiety, disrupt your relationship with food, and take a real toll on mental health. Restriction isn’t neutral — it’s a stressor that affects your nervous system, hormones, and digestion.

At Thrive Clinics, we take a non-diet, evidence-based approach to care. We believe real health supports both your physical and mental well-being. That means focusing on nourishment, stability, and personalized care — not shame, fear, or extremes.

If January has you feeling overwhelmed by health messaging, you’re not alone — and you don’t have to navigate it alone. Compassionate care can change the conversation.

✨ Ready for support that honors your whole health? We’re here when you’re ready.

Healing doesn’t require intensity — it requires the right support. 🌿

So often, we’re told that getting healthier means pushing harder, doing more, or being stricter. But real healing happens when your body feels supported, understood, and safe enough to respond. Progress doesn’t come from pressure — it comes from consistent care, nourishment, and guidance that respects your biology.

At Thrive Clinics, we believe your health journey should feel steady, compassionate, and personalized — not overwhelming. You don’t have to force healing. With the right support, it unfolds naturally.

💚 You deserve care that meets you where you are.
