🌿✨ Thorne Thursday: Fall Wellness Edition ✨🌿

As the seasons change, so do our wellness needs. 🍂 For lupus warriors, prevention and immune support are key. Thorne offers clean, trusted supplements that can support your body this fall season.

Here are some Thorne favorites worth looking into:

🍊 Vitamin C with Flavonoids – Extra antioxidant + immune support during cold season.

🧄 Zinc Picolinate – Helps maintain immune defenses and supports healing.

🌞 Vitamin D/K2 Liquid – Cooler months = less sun. Vitamin D helps support immune health, bone strength, and mood.

🧠 Curcumin Phytosome (Meriva) – A gentle, highly absorbable form of turmeric that supports healthy inflammation response.

🥛 Collagen Plus – For joint, skin, and tissue health (perfect as the weather gets colder and joints get stiffer).

✨ Coach’s Tip: Always check with your doctor or rheumatologist before adding new supplements to your routine—especially with lupus and medications.

💜 Gut–Brain Connection for Lupus Warriors 💜

Did you know your gut and brain are constantly communicating? This “gut–brain axis” plays a huge role in mood, energy, and even inflammation.

🔑 Why it matters for lupus:
• Inflammation link → Gut health can influence immune activity, which is key in lupus.
• Mood & mental health → A balanced gut may help with brain fog, anxiety, and fatigue.
• Nutrient absorption → A healthy gut helps your body better absorb the vitamins and minerals you need.

🌱 Wellness tips to support your gut:
• Add fiber-rich foods (veggies, oats, beans).
• Stay hydrated 💧.
• Try probiotics or fermented foods (if tolerated).
• Limit processed, high-sugar foods.

💬 Remember: Everyone’s body reacts differently—what works for one lupus warrior may not work for another. Always listen to your body and check with your doctor before making changes.

💜 You’re stronger than lupus.
Stay tuned—I’ll be sharing more gut–brain wellness tools in the weeks ahead!

Happy Monday, Warriors! 🌞
Let’s step into this week with hope and intention. Whether your body feels like running or resting, honor it. Progress with Lupus is not always measured in big leaps, it’s in the small, steady steps forward.

💡 This week’s mantra: “I am worthy of health, joy, and peace.”
Say it, believe it, carry it with you.

Cholesterol Control - Keep your Arteries Clean

Even though it’s important to reduce the amount of cholesterol in your diet, the real culprit lies elsewhere. The component in food that has the biggest effect on cholesterol levels is saturated fat. Saturated fats, which are found mostly in animal foods such as red meat, whole and 2% milk, egg yolks, butter and cheese can increase the amount of LDL cholesterol in the bloodstream as well as the total amount of cholesterol. Even though it’s a good idea to reduce the amount of fat in your diet there’s one type of fact that you can feel good about eating. It has been said that having moderate amounts of monounsaturated fat the kind in avocados and olive oil can lower levels of harmful LDL cholesterol while leaving the beneficial high density HDL untouched.
Do you know that eating whole grains beans, and fresh fruits help keep your digestive system in top shape, but you may want to eat these foods to reduce cholesterol too .
They are filled with soluble fiber, a substance that forms a gummy gel in the digestive track which helps lower cholesterol.

Happy Thursday! Live-Love-Laugh
Maybe your off today, maybe your working, maybe your laying in a hospital bed fighting for your life, or watching a loved one go through their hardest moments. Wherever and whatever your situation is take a moment to breath and smile. Know that whatever path you are on God chose it for you with a purpose.
