You are eating organic food as much as possible and exercise once or twice a week, but it seems like you are the same weight.  If you drift from your routine, you gain weight easily.  Your labs maybe be looking ok at your doctor’s office, so what can be wrong?  Let’s see if we can find the root-cause and get to the bottom of this so you can feel balance and love your weight again.

Biologics and immuno-suppressants will calm down your activated immune system and make you feel better.  You are told you will likely be on them “long term,” but you are not so pleased reading about the side effects.  Some people with time will go on more medications to keep the inflammation down, while others may go spontaneously on remission.  It is because genes load the gun, but environment pulls the trigger.  You did not just “get” RA or lupus or Hashimoto’s, somehow, the gene you had was turned on.  And no, your body is not out of wack.

You heard about Plant-based diet, Ketogenic diet, low carb diet, intermittent fasting, time restricted eating, vegan diet, paleo-diet, mediteranean diet, anti-inflammatory diet, carnivore diet, mito diet and SAD diet.  You even tried them or are on one of these.  It is not working or when you stop, it is like you never ever did the hardwork of being on diet.  Food for medicine should not be a diet mindset, it is an opportunity to discover and reconnect with your body’s own need.

Have you ever heard of someone having a chronological age of 60 but a biological age of 30? With the advancement of modern medicine, people are living longer often to reach 100’s years of life.  The way each individual will reach this amazing milestone will depend on each individual’s health goals.  Some will be 100 year old needing a wheel chair to get around, or even being hospital bed bound, while others will have the freedom to carry their groceries and drive around, getting in and out of their car unassisted.  What are your health goals?  Whatever they are, we can help you get to them by starting to work on them now.

Change the environment.  Society has set the non-typical children to fail.  From the fast paced-life to the fast-food way of eating, the children are required to be calm and listen so that they can follow our directions.  But what if they can’t find the calm after the sugar load, the restful sleep after the blue light stimulation? Change the environment, change the diet, set them up for success, love them and believe in them and in their body ability to balance itself.

If sleep is so important why are we all sleep-deprived and rewarded for being so?  Sleep seems like a waste of time, and the FOMO is there to remind us Netflix’s biggest competitor is sleep.  We are not only in a pandemic of Covid, but also a pandemic of stress, along with an epidemic of obesity and sleep deprivation.  It is not a surprise that the lack of sleep, stress and obesity are linked.  You read this correctly, the lack of sleep will make you gain weight or unable to loose weight.  But, if your body is at its optimal function, you will need less sleep providing you get quality sleep.

We will walk with you and guide you to your goals of freedom, productivity, vitality, creativity and well-being.  Our focus will be on progress over perfection, as we all have been there.  For some it is a quick journey to their specific end-goal, but for most, it is a satisfying long journey during which the patient will find peace of mind throughout our guidance and partnership.
