Your labs can be normal and you can still feel off.

That’s because “normal” lab ranges are based on the average population and the average person is sick.

Conventional medicine uses population data to define what’s “normal.” But when 6 in 10 adults have a chronic condition, “normal” becomes a reflection of illness, not health.

At Raden Wellness, we take a functional approach. We look beyond disease detection to identify early signs of dysfunction (patterns in your hormones, blood sugar, inflammation, and nutrient status) long before symptoms spiral into diagnosis.

Because the goal isn’t to be “within range.” It’s to be optimal.

Not all estrogen is created equal and understanding the difference can change everything about how you feel.

Estrogen isn’t just one hormone. It’s actually three (estradiol, estrone, and estriol), each with unique roles in your body. From energy and mood to metabolism and skin health, balance between these estrogens (and with progesterone) determines how you show up every day.

Not all estrogen comes from you. Compounds in your environment, like plastics, pesticides, and synthetic fragrances, can mimic estrogen and throw your system off balance. Meanwhile, natural phytoestrogens from foods like flax and soy can help regulate healthy function.

When estrogen and progesterone fall out of sync (whether in perimenopause, PCOS, or chronic stress) symptoms like bloating, fatigue, and mood swings appear. The solution? Precision testing and individualized care that identifies which estrogens dominate, how you’re metabolizing them, and how to bring your hormones back into alignment.

Can’t lose those last 5 lbs? Feeling bloated, moody, or having trouble sleeping?

For many women in their 40s and 50s, these symptoms aren’t “just aging”. They’re signs of a hormone imbalance.

explains how progesterone plays a key role in mood, sleep, and overall balance. When levels are optimized, many women sleep better, feel more like themselves, and sometimes realize they don’t need antidepressants, just hormone support.

Balanced hormones lead to better sleep, better mood, better you.

Halloween shouldn’t be scary for your health 👻

If you’ve been consistent with your nutrition, one sugar-filled holiday doesn’t have to throw you off track.

Integrative Nutritionist, Karen Raden, shares her tips for Halloween:

✅ Eat well earlier in the day by focusing on protein, healthy fats & fiber
🍫 Choose your favorite treats (2–3 minis are totally fine!)
🍬 Try smarter swaps like Lily’s or SmartSweets
🗑️ And once the night’s over, get the leftover candy out of the house

It’s about balance. Not perfection.

Let’s talk about estrogen and menopause because understanding your hormones is the first step to taking back control of your health.

Estrogen isn’t just one hormone. It’s a group of three: estradiol, estrone, and estriol. During menopause, estrogen naturally declines as the ovaries slow production. That shift can bring on symptoms like hot flashes, brain fog, mood changes, sleep disruption, and weight gain.

But estrogen does more than influence your cycle, it supports bone density, brain health, and metabolism. When levels drop, the effects can be felt head to toe.

The good news? You can support estrogen balance naturally through lifestyle, nutrition, and targeted therapies.

✔️ Add phytoestrogen-rich foods like flax, soy, and sesame
✔️ Support sleep and mood with magnesium
✔️ Prioritize movement and strength training for bone health
✔️ Explore bioidentical hormone therapy (BHRT) when appropriate

At Raden, we help women navigate every stage of hormonal change, from perimenopause to post-menopause, with data-driven, personalized support.

Feeling constantly exhausted, no matter how much you sleep? It could be more than “just stress.”

At Raden Wellness, we look deeper to uncover the root cause of your fatigue. Karen Raden discussed one key tool: The Adrenal Stress Index Test — a simple at-home saliva test that tracks your cortisol pattern throughout the day.

🧠 Cortisol plays a major role in your energy, focus, and sleep.
🔥 Too high = wired but tired
💤 Too low = no energy at all
🌙 Reversed = alert at night, exhausted in the morning

When your cortisol is off balance, your energy will be too.
We personalize your plan from B vitamins and mitochondrial support to balanced nutrition and movement to help you restore energy naturally.

Most Americans are deficient in Vitamin D but few realize it’s not just a vitamin, it’s a hormone that impacts over 3,000 genes linked to immunity, metabolism, and cell health.

Low Vitamin D can lead to weakened immunity, inflammation, fatigue, and even associations with cancer risk. At Raden Wellness, we take a functional approach to testing and optimizing your Vitamin D levels because normal isn’t the same as optimal.

Know your number → personalize your plan → optimize your health.

✔️ Vitamin D Test: $15
✔️ Also included in our Foundational Biomarker Panel

October is and a reminder that prevention starts with awareness.

Nearly half of all cancer deaths are preventable, yet many cancers remain hidden until it’s too late. Early detection saves lives and new technology is changing what’s possible.

The Galleri® multi-cancer early detection test screens for signals from 50+ types of cancer, including many with no standard screenings (like pancreatic, liver, and ovarian).
Just one simple blood draw can help detect cancer early often before symptoms appear.

To learn if the Galleri test is right for you, comment INTRO to book a complimentary Intro call.

Early awareness leads to lasting wellness.

Let’s talk about female hormones because they influence so much more than reproduction.

Dr. Mara Raden shares what every woman should know:
✔️ Hormones affect your energy, mood, metabolism, and cardiovascular health, not just fertility.
✔️ Changes begin as early as puberty and continue through perimenopause and menopause.
✔️ Testosterone can start to decline as early as age 30, which is why testing matters.

At Raden, we go beyond basic labs with our Foundational Biomarker Panel and go even deeper with a Comprehensive Hormone Panel to understand your full hormonal picture.

Knowledge is power and your hormones deserve more than guesswork.
