If you’ve ever been told your thyroid labs are “normal” but you still don’t feel like yourself… this is worth a look.

We don’t just look at TSH; a full thyroid panel helps us understand how your thyroid is actually functioning in the body.

That includes:
• hormone production (Free T4)
• active hormone levels (Free T3)
• conversion patterns (including Reverse T3)
• and whether the immune system is involved (thyroid antibodies)

It gives a much clearer picture of what’s really going on, especially if symptoms are still present.

Simple question we ask:
Is your thyroid working optimally for you?

If you want to understand what each marker means and why it matters, we break it all down for you.

Get the full scoop here: https://inspiredhealthmed.com/thyroid-health-beyond-tsh-the-full-panel-and-what-it-tells-us/?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bio&fbclid=PAdGRleAQyJSxleHRuA2FlbQIxMQBzcnRjBmFwcF9pZA8xMjQwMjQ1NzQyODc0MTQAAaebAa1dgvtwU5UQgOXi-1oZDjtX4rMt_smZKTmx5NNRoXEvs80SzLlq4A6L2A_aem_sc_w4-8tbz2oD9mOfx9oSQ

We discuss what a full thyroid panel is and why it gives us insight into patterns that a single marker (like TSH) simply cannot reveal.

Feeling a little… not like yourself lately?

If you’ve been wondering “what is going on with me lately?” you’re not alone.

It might not be “just stress.” It could be perimenopause.

This transition can start years before menopause as hormones begin to fluctuate, bringing symptoms many women don’t realize are connected. The good news? There are options, including bioidentical hormone therapy, that may help restore balance and help you feel more like yourself again.

The team at Inspired Health takes a personalized approach to understanding what’s happening in your body and what support might help.

March is a beautiful time to pause and revisit the health intentions you set at the start of the year.

What’s working?
What feels supportive?
What might need adjusting?

Progress doesn’t require perfection, just consistency. Small daily choices add up, and doing something is always more powerful than doing nothing.

Be well,
Dr. Weintrob & Dr. Dishman 🍀

Part 2 of the Bing Wu 丙午 – 2026 Yang Fire Horse Year with Dr. Meaghan Dishman 🔥🐎

2026 officially ignited on February 4 at Lì Chūn, the Solar New Year, marking the rise of Yang Fire energy. The archetype of the Sun. Big, bright, radiant and impossible to ignore.

This year asks us to repair our relationship with light, not metaphorically but literally. Yang Fire thrives on rhythm. Sunrise and sunset. Sleep and waking. Presence over constant stimulation. When we fall out of sync with natural light cycles, our biology pays the price, making circadian health a foundational theme of 2026.

The invitation is simple: get outside at sunrise, dim lights at night, protect your sleep, reduce artificial light, and create a rhythm your nervous system can trust. You are nature, not separate from it.

With the Horse beneath it, this year carries passion, visibility, momentum and leadership. When balanced, it inspires and uplifts. When unchecked, it burns fast with impatience and flares of temper.

Fire must be tended. Read the full story: https://tinyurl.com/2s4dhhbk

2026 is a year to rise, rest, and rise again.

Part 3 coming soon. 🔥

☀️ Sunny Bend winters are deceiving.

At ~44°N latitude, Bend experiences what scientists call a “Vitamin D Winter” — when the sun’s angle is too low for UVB rays to pe*****te the atmosphere and trigger D production in your skin. (Holick MF, New England Journal of Medicine, 2007)

Even on clear days, your body needs Vitamin D for SO much more than bones:

∙ Hormone balance
∙ Immune support
∙ Heart health
∙ Reduced inflammation
∙ Healthy cell growth
∙ Autoimmune management
∙ Neuromuscular function

Our D3-K2 5,000™ delivers the form your body makes from sunlight, paired with K2 to make sure calcium goes where it belongs.

Sardine Toast > Avocado Toast (at least this week 😉)

High protein.
Rich in omega-3s.
Supportive for heart, brain, and hormone health.
And surprisingly affordable.

Sardines deliver 20–25 grams of protein per tin along with EPA and DHA to help calm inflammation and support cardiovascular health. They’re also a great source of B12 and selenium, and because they’re small fish, they’re naturally low in mercury.

This is the kind of simple lunch that keeps energy steady and cravings in check. Balanced protein and healthy fats make a big difference in how the rest of the day feels.

It’s also endlessly adaptable. Add herbs, pickles, olives, or a little heat depending on what’s in the fridge.

Recipe is in the images.
Save it for later or make it tonight!

🌾 This month’s Community Connections conversation with Kelly Louden of Wild Juniper Sanctuary is extra special, as we recently had the opportunity to visit this Terrebonne, Oregon sanctuary firsthand.

From the smallest indoor details to the land itself, everything is intentionally designed to support rest and nervous system regulation. We left feeling grounded and deeply restored.

Now, let’s get into a little bit of the conversation with Kelly.

Kelly shares that was born from her own healing journey and a deep desire to create a quiet, private place in nature where people can truly pause. After navigating serious health challenges and simplifying her life, she followed a long-held vision to build a sanctuary devoted to restoration, balance, and reconnection.

Rather than offering a structured retreat or traditional spa experience, Kelly intentionally designed Wild Juniper to be agenda-free, a space where guests are invited to slow down, listen inward, and engage with simple, supportive wellness practices at their own pace. Her hope is that guests leave not transformed, but well-rested and carrying small, meaningful shifts back into everyday life.
