Teaching Functional Medicine in Oklahoma City 🌾

This weekend, Dr. Chase Hayden had the privilege of presenting an 8-hour continuing education class for the Chiropractic Physicians of Oklahoma, sponsored by Standard Process.

The training focused on key functional medicine topics including:
🩸 Blood sugar handling
⚖️ Metabolic syndrome
🦋 Thyroid dysfunction
💪 Adrenal stress
🌿 Hormone imbalance

It was an incredible experience connecting with colleagues and sharing how the whole food philosophy can transform patient care—helping clinicians better understand the why behind chronic metabolic and hormonal challenges.

It is always a great opportunity to teach, learn, and continue advancing the conversation on nutrition-based healing.

😳 Would you believe this came from inside someone? 😳

The second dish isn’t dirt — it’s mold growing after being exposed to saliva from a client dealing with chronic fatigue, bloating, and recurring infections.

Internal toxicity is real, and your body shows you when it’s overloaded.

This is why we don’t guess — we test. 🧫

Wellness Foundations Series — Part 3: Stress Management

You can drink your water and eat all the right foods… but if your stress is unregulated, your body will still struggle to heal.

When stress hormones stay elevated, they steal your minerals, disrupt digestion, and drain your energy — even if you’re doing everything else “right.” It’s one of the biggest hidden nutrient thieves in modern life.

Ask yourself today:
🌿 Do I take at least two minutes each day to breathe deeply and reset?
☀️ Do I get outside in the sunshine at least three times a week?

These small habits calm your nervous system, lower cortisol, and support your heart and adrenals — helping your body move from survival mode to restoration.

✨ If you’re ready to uncover how stress may be affecting your nutrient balance, DM “FOUNDATION” for an individualized Wellness Foundations Self-Check Questionnaire. It’s a guided look into your personal patterns and the next best steps for lasting balance.

📚 Another inspiring weekend of learning!

Dr. Chase Hayden attended Finding Hope in an Autoimmune World — a seminar led by Dr. Scott Vrzal, DC, in Houston, TX. The weekend focused on understanding the underlying drivers of autoimmunity and inflammation, and how functional assessments and muscle testing can help uncover the body’s hidden stressors.

As an experienced Applied Kinesiologist, Dr. Vrzal integrated hands-on demonstrations and clinical insights that highlighted the connection between the immune system, endocrine function, and neurological balance.

Ongoing education like this helps The Hayden Institute continue offering patients the most comprehensive and individualized care possible. 🌿✨

If you’re struggling with chronic inflammation, fatigue, or autoimmune symptoms, The Hayden Institute can help uncover the why behind your symptoms and create a personalized path toward healing.

Wellness Foundations Series — Part 1: Hydration 💧

Most people think hydration just means drinking more water… but true hydration goes so much deeper. 💧

Your cells depend on balanced minerals, not just H₂O. Without them, energy drops, focus fades, and even your heart rhythm (yes, we can see it on an HSR scan!) can show signs of stress.

So, ask yourself today:
☀️ Do I hydrate before I caffeinate?
🧂 Do I add minerals (like lemon or quality sea salt) to my water to support real hydration?

Small habits like these can completely transform how you feel — and they’re the first building block in your wellness foundation.

✨ If you want to dive deeper, DM “FOUNDATION” for your individualized Wellness Foundations Self-Check Questionnaire — the same in-depth tool we use to uncover where the body needs support most.

Wellness Foundations Series — Part 2: Vitamins & Minerals

You can drink all the water in the world… but if your body is deficient in key vitamins and minerals, it’s like trying to power a car with no spark plugs. ⚡️

Minerals and nutrients are what make every cell function — they’re the building blocks for energy, hormones, mood, and even detox pathways. When they’re out of balance, fatigue, cravings, and brain fog are often the first clues.

Ask yourself today:
🥬 Do I eat dark leafy greens daily?
🍗 Do I include a source of protein with each meal?

If you answered “no,” this may be the missing link in your wellness foundation. Start with one simple change — add greens to your breakfast or snack on some protein. Your body will thank you with better energy and clearer thinking.

✨ Want to go deeper? DM me “FOUNDATION” for an individualized Wellness Foundations Self-Check Questionnaire. It’s the same tool we use in our practice to uncover subtle deficiencies and create a tailored plan for lasting balance.
