testing helps us uncover what’s actually activating the immune system — beyond symptoms, beyond basic labs, beyond guesswork.

✨ Test, don’t guess.
Because effective care starts with understanding immune reactivity, not assumptions.

📍If you’ve tried protocols, supplements, or treatments without real answers, advanced immune testing may be the missing piece.

What a long-term high-fat diet may be doing to your liver 🧬

New research in Cell shows it’s not occasional indulgence—but chronic exposure to a high-fat diet—that may raise liver cancer risk.

🔬 Over time, liver cells shift into a stress-survival mode, shutting down normal functions like detox and nutrient processing.
⚠️ This adaptive state activates genes linked to tumor development, helping explain why fatty liver disease often comes before liver cancer.
🐭 Animal findings align with changes seen in human liver samples, suggesting this process may unfold over decades.

🍽️ The takeaway: long-term eating patterns matter more than single meals. Healthy fats are still essential—but balance and lifestyle choices play a critical role.

A recent article highlighted growing concerns that widely used pain medications—often taken daily for headaches, joint pain, or inflammation—may increase the risk of heart disease and stroke when used long term.

For many people, these medications feel harmless because they’re familiar and easy to access. But pain is not the problem—it’s a signal.

At Scire Integrative Health Center, we focus on:

🧠 Understanding why pain and inflammation are happening
❤️ Supporting heart and metabolic health at the same time
🧬 Reducing reliance on medications by addressing the underlying drivers of pain and inflammation

This doesn’t mean pain meds are “bad” or never appropriate—but it does mean they shouldn’t be the only plan.

If you’re managing chronic pain, inflammation, or cardiovascular risk factors, it may be time to look deeper.

Your body is always communicating. We help you listen—and respond smarter.

🧠 Metabolic Syndrome Is More Common Than You Think — And It’s Getting Worse for Some

A large U.S. study analyzing NHANES data from 2013–2023 found that nearly 4 in 10 adults now meet criteria for metabolic syndrome — a cluster of risk factors that significantly increases the risk for heart disease, diabetes, cognitive decline, and early mortality.

🔍 What stood out most:
• Adults 60+ years old saw a significant rise, with prevalence climbing to over 62%
• Non-Hispanic Black adults experienced a meaningful increase over the last decade
• Triglycerides — a key marker of metabolic dysfunction — rose notably after the pandemic
• Younger adults showed “stable” numbers, but stability does not mean optimal health

⚠️ Metabolic syndrome isn’t one problem — it’s a pattern:
✔️ Abdominal weight gain
✔️ Blood sugar dysregulation
✔️ Elevated blood pressure
✔️ Abnormal cholesterol or triglycerides

Individually, these may seem manageable.
Together, they signal deeper metabolic and neurological stress.

🧬 At Scire Integrative Health Center, we don’t just look at labs in isolation — we assess the root drivers: inflammation, nervous system regulation, metabolic signaling, stress load, and lifestyle disruption.

✨ Prevention, early intervention, and personalized care matter now more than ever — especially for aging adults and underserved populations.

📍 Your metabolism tells a story. We help you change the ending.

Chronic fatigue is exhausting.
Digestive issues are frustrating.
Strange reactions to foods or medications are confusing.

But when all of these show up together?
That’s not just an inconvenience — it’s a signal your body is asking to be understood.

For many, this pattern points to Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) — a condition that often hides in plain sight, dismissed as “random” or “unrelated” symptoms.

If your body feels unpredictable, it’s not in your head.
It may be time to look at the whole picture, not just isolated symptoms.

🧠 Healing starts with connection, not dismissal.

Parents are drowning in information… but not enough truth.
In this clip from Episode 13 of the Everything Brain Podcast, Dr. Melillo and Dr. Scire break down why confusion around autism, ADHD, and developmental challenges is at an all-time high — and how social media algorithms often amplify downstream noise instead of addressing the real neurological imbalance at the root.
Your child doesn’t need more trends.
They need answers grounded in real neurodevelopmental science.
