Research consistently shows that leg strength and grip strength aren’t just fitness metrics — they’re powerful predictors of brain health, cognitive resilience, and longevity.

Train your body protect your mind.

Want a bonus tip. Do it in nature. Get outside and hike. Find things to hang from when you are out in nature. This will do wonders for your mental health also 😉

Interesting study on creatine use in perimenopause women. 2 key points were the obvious retention of muscle mass as we know loss of muscle as we she is a big contributor to health problems but more importantly was its effects on brain fog as this is one of the most common complaints of women going through this. Interesting was this was a low dose. Contrary to a lot of recent studies showing doses of 10g for cognitive health. A lot of women when they take creatine don’t like how it “bulks and bloats” them. So a low dose of 750mg of creatine, relatively safe and benign supplement could provide support and relief for the common symptom of 🧠 brain fog.

A disrupted circadian rhythm has significant consequences to health. What is a disrupted circadian rhythm: it’s significantly impacted by a disrupted light environment. Particularly during the winter months. We should be exposed to morning sunlight directly in our eyes. Moderste amount of mid day sun in our eyes and all over our body. Reduced exposure to bright light particularly the few hours before bedtime. Change out your light bulbs to at the minimum incandescent bulbs. Even better use circadian rhythm healthy bulbs which can dim to an ember or candlelight setting. Wear blue blockers with an ember or red lense if you are going to view screens at night especially phones and tv’s. Tip: phones can be mitigated by using the red filter. TV’s cannot. Sleep in complete darkness. Use blackout curtains and unplug anything in the room emitting blue light or cover with electrical tape.

Your mental health and brain will thank you 🧠❤️

Health is so much more than just diet and exercise. And nutrition is about much more than just calories in and calories out. To correct heath issues and bring back balance there has to be an understanding of how the system works and determining how your system is functioning requires data. Then you can make changes rather than just trying to band aid symptoms.

I routinely test for GI issues with patients. This post I wanted to share another common issue I see and some of the less well known risks factors for gi issues.

The thing about gi issues that is often overlooked is that they don’t always have symptoms and there isn’t a one size fits all for resolving gi issues.

It’s not uncommon to run a lab on somebody to see this, a potentially pathogenic bacteria that has overgrown creating health issues.

The majority of the people have never run labs like this and more commonly they have tried all kinds of gut fix protocols and products without success.

Some of these just can’t be addressed without antibiotics hence as you see on the images they are not susceptible to regular herbal alternative therapies and many are not susceptible to commonly prescribed antibiotics.

Of note many of my patients have worked previously with a functional med doctor who didn’t do labs and were using herbals to try a treat to no avail.

Also of note I have seen many patients that did have something that could have been helped with products that they were given but the dosages were so low there was no therapeutic benefit. It’s important to understand what would be a therapeutic dose and most of the time supplement labels do not have therapeutic doses listed on the bottle.

The more you know. Testing for GI can often be a key piece of information in resolving health issues.

Just running labs and giving therapeutics can be just as much of a failure if patients are not educated on how environmental and lifestyle factors play a role.

More lies, lies, lies from primal bod!

As humans we have been very well equipped to eat and digest plants. Again this garbage she posts is a fallacy and she spouts it to further her agenda and sell her programs.

But the truth which we should all be after is that we do have bacteria to digest plants, it’s provides fiber which is beneficial for healthy 💩 and ideal diets are diverse, varied, and seasonal.

Don’t believe me just go look at primal, ancestral peeps from various diff locales and you will see this 🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤡

More inportantly what’s impacting that bacteria is our environment living in an industrialized society and consuming an abundance of processed foods.
