If you have endometriosis, you know it’s not just the pain.

It’s the depression, the anxiety, the mood swings… like being on a roller coaster you can’t get off.

The good news? We’ve helped clients calm their mood swings by fixing the root cause first.

When your gut and liver are working properly, your mood swings often improve — because you’re addressing the reason behind them, not just masking symptoms.

A lot of people think endometriosis is only a hormone problem.
But what I see in the clinic is a bit different.

Your body already knows how to handle extra estrogen — the liver is designed to package it up and move it out.
But when that system is overwhelmed with sugar, processed oils, inflammation, or chronic stress… the “janitor” can’t keep up.

And that’s when estrogen starts to feel like it’s building up, making symptoms flare again and again.

One of the simplest things you can do right now?

Start adding more cruciferous vegetables to your meals.
Broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts — they contain compounds that help support the detox process naturally.

These aren’t quick fixes.
But they are the kinds of daily habits that support long-term relief and better balance.

I’d love to hear from you — what lifestyle change has made the biggest difference in your health so far?

If you’ve ever microwaved leftovers in a plastic container, you’re definitely not alone — most of us grew up doing it without thinking twice.

But if you're dealing with hormone-related symptoms or endometriosis, here’s something worth paying attention to.

When plastic is heated, it can release xenoestrogens — compounds that act like estrogen in the body. And if you’re already dealing with estrogen-related symptoms, that can add more stress on your system day after day.

This is something we see all the time in the clinic.
Not because people are doing anything “wrong,” but simply because no one taught us better options.

One of the simplest changes you can make?

Warm your food on a plate or in a glass container instead of plastic.
Store your leftovers in glass or metal when you can.

Small shifts like this don’t fix everything but they can reduce the daily hormone load your body has to manage.

If you’ve struggled with endo or hormone imbalance, I’d love to hear what small lifestyle change helped you most.

If your endometriosis pain has been getting worse, here’s something most people never think about:

your cooking oil.

Inflammation plays a major role in endo flare-ups, and certain oils can push inflammation even higher.

The common seed oils (canola, vegetable, soybean) are loaded with omega-6 fats, and when that balance gets too high, the body becomes more reactive — which means more sensitivity and more pain.

The good news?
There’s a simple way to support your body: swap your oils.

We’ve seen so many women feel a difference after switching to options like olive oil, avocado oil, butter, or beef tallow. They contain fats that help calm inflammation instead of adding to it.

Small changes really add up, especially when you’re living with daily pain.

If this is something you're dealing with, you’re not alone.

This hidden gut infection might be why you’re always tired — and no one’s told you.

I’ve seen so many patients come in saying the same thing:
'I’m eating healthy, working out, doing everything right… but I still feel awful.'

When we dig deeper, we often find H. pylori — a bacteria hiding in the stomach that quietly drives fatigue, reflux, and bloating.

Here’s the problem:

most traditional care stops at lowering symptoms, but never checks why your digestion or energy crashed in the first place.

When H. pylori lowers your stomach acid, your body can’t absorb nutrients or fight inflammation — and you pay the price in fatigue, brain fog, and gut issues.

What’s one symptom you’ve been told is “just stress” that never actually went away?

🥚 Eggs aren’t the enemy.

Your doctor said cut them out, right?
Or take a statin to lower cholesterol?
Here’s the truth: neither one fixes it.

Cholesterol is your body’s repair material.
Like bondo patching rust on an old Corvette.
When it’s high, it means damage is happening.

Statins only change the number on paper.
But the inflammation is still breaking you down.
That’s why numbers drop, yet heart attacks rise.

The answer isn’t chasing cholesterol down.
It’s finding the hidden causes of inflammation.
Stress, seed oils, poor sleep, silent infections.

Brain fog? It’s not your brain’s fault — it’s your gut.

Here’s the truth:

your gut and brain are constantly talking through the vagus nerve. When the gut is inflamed, that signal doesn’t stop there — it travels to your brain.

That’s why brain fog often shows up with bloating, constipation, or stomach pain.

For years, people have tried to fix brain fog with caffeine or supplements. But that only masks the symptoms.

The real fix? Heal your gut first. Because until your gut is healthy, your brain will stay stuck in “low power mode.”

Have you noticed your gut and brain fog flaring up at the same time?

I can’t tell you how many patients come to me saying: “My doctor says my labs are normal… but I feel like a mess.”

Here’s the truth:
Most hormone tests are nearly useless.

Why?

Because doctors usually order a single blood test — and often on the wrong day of your cycle. That’s like watching just Timon & Pumbaa and assuming you know the whole Lion King story.

Your hormones shift daily. And when we don’t see the bigger picture, women get told they’re “fine” when they’re clearly not.

Here’s what actually works:

- DUTCH testing (urine-based, tracks your hormone patterns over time).

- Looking at how your body processes hormones — not just “how much.”

- Testing at the right time (luteal phase for cycling women).

Stop settling for “normal” results that don’t match how you feel. You deserve answers that uncover the root cause.

If you’re still constipated no matter how much fiber you eat… you’re probably making one of these 5 mistakes.

When I first started in practice, I saw patient after patient frustrated because “eat more fiber and drink more water” wasn’t working.

The truth? If your gut isn’t functioning properly, that advice can actually make constipation worse.

Here are the top 5 mistakes I see every day:

- Too much raw fiber → inflames the gut
- Ignoring low stomach acid → slows digestion
- Taking the wrong magnesium (oxide) → harsh and ineffective
- Skipping fats → no bile, no movement
- Ignoring gut bacteria → poor motility

The solution isn’t about doing more… it’s about doing it right. Small root-cause changes can transform your digestion and finally bring relief.

Which mistake do you think you’re making right now?

I used to believe diet soda was the “better choice.” I was wrong.

Here’s what actually happens: when you drink diet soda, your brain tastes “sweet” and signals insulin release—only to find out there’s no sugar.

Over time, this mismatch creates insulin resistance… which means weight gain, cravings, and a slower metabolism.

Honestly, I’d rather you drink regular soda (with real sugar) than keep your body trapped in this hormonal cycle.

But the real solution? Cut soda altogether.

Switch to sparkling water or herbal teas—your metabolism and energy will thank you.

If you’ve been stuck in the cycle of cravings, fatigue, and stubborn weight gain, it might not be your fault.

Be honest — are you team diet soda, regular soda, or have you already ditched both?

Let’s get to the root cause.

I’ll let you in on a secret: starving yourself only makes belly fat worse.
I see it all the time in clinic — patients eating less, working harder, but their belly fat just won’t budge.

The truth?

Belly fat isn’t about calories. It’s about hormones and inflammation. Here’s what actually works:

- Eat enough protein (30g per meal) to speed up metabolism.

- Take a 10-minute walk after meals to lower blood sugar.

- Stop eating 3 hours before bed to keep your fat-burning window open.

Belly fat doesn’t need punishment — it needs a strategy.

Be honest — do you struggle more with protein, walking, or late-night snacking?

If you’re ready for a root-cause approach...
