It's easy to end up taking 10+ supplements when you're trying to "do all the right things." But just like with food or medications, more isn't always better and can even create new imbalances if not carefully tailored.

Supplements should support your body's healing, not overwhelm it.

Why more isn't always better:
- Over-supplementing can stress your liver
- Some nutrients compete with each other
- You may be masking symptoms instead of addressing the root
- Your body's needs change over time

Functional support is most effective when it's personalized, intentional, and adjusted over time, not just stacked endlessly.

Most people don't know, but your feet are the foundation for everything above them. And when they're not working properly, your knees, hips, and even lower back can start to feel the strain.

Here's what can happen:

- Collapsed arches? Your knees may fall inward.
- Limited big toe movement? Your gait changes.
- Weak foot muscles? Less shock absorption, more stress on your joints.

If you've tried working on your hips or back without much relief, don't overlook your foundation.

Want to know how your feet are affecting your movement? Let's take a look.

Milk thistle has been used for centuries to support liver health, but does it really work?

Here's what the research (and clinical experience) says:

- May help protect liver cells from toxins
- Supports antioxidant activity (thanks to silymarin)
- Can aid liver enzyme balance in some individuals
- Generally safe and well-tolerated when used properly

But...

- It's not a "detox pill" and won't undo a weekend of wine and takeout
- It works best when paired with lifestyle strategies like hydration, sleep, and real food

Milk thistle can be a helpful tool but think of it as support, not a solution.

Perimenopause often starts long before your periods stop, and its symptoms are easy to miss or blame on stress, aging, or "just life."

From sleep disruption and mood changes to brain fog and unpredictable cycles, these signs could point to hormonal transitions already underway.
Understanding what's happening gives you the power to take action, through testing, nutrition, and targeted support.

Stronger hips. Better posture. A back that doesn't ache at the end of every workday.
You can move and feel better, with the right care plan tailored to you.

- Nagging hip tension
- A stiff, sore lower back
- Feeling "stuck" in your body from too much sitting
.. you're not alone. These are some of the most common issues we help people with, and it starts with finding the real cause, not just treating the symptoms.

Feel stuck at your desk all day? Here are 3 simple ways to sneak more movement into your 9-5 without overhauling your routine:

1. Move every 30-60 minutes
Set a timer or use your water bottle as a reminder. Every refill = movement break.

2. Take walking meetings
Even a few minutes of walking while on a call can boost circulation and ease stiffness.

3. Use "movement snacks"
Short bursts of mobility to keep your hips and back happy without needing a full workout.

Small shifts add up over time. Your joints, muscles, and mind will thank you!

Sugar cravings aren't just about willpower, they're often your body's way of asking for something it's missing.

Here are a few common reasons why cravings show up:

- Blood sugar crashes (after a carb-heavy meal or snack)
- Poor sleep or chronic stress
- Low magnesium or chromium
- Not eating enough protein or healthy fat

Instead of fighting cravings, support your body with:

- Protein-rich meals (especially at breakfast)
- Healthy fats to keep you full
- Magnesium-rich foods like leafy greens, seeds, and legumes

Cravings are a message, not a failure. When you support your body's needs, they often quiet down on their own.

Feeling like you're reacting to more foods than ever? Many people are developing new food sensitivities seemingly out of nowhere. But there are real, underlying reasons why this happens.

Here are 5 sneaky causes of rising food reactivity:

- Leaky gut - when your gut lining lets unwanted particles into your bloodstream
- Overloaded immune system - constantly on edge and mistaking food for a threat
- Gut microbiome imbalance - too many bad bugs, not enough good ones
- Cross-reactivity - your body reacts to foods with similar protein structures
- Chronic stress & toxins - weakening your gut and overworking your immune system

With the right steps, you can start to heal and reduce your food reactions.

You've cleaned up your diet. You're taking the supplements. You're trying to sleep more, stress less, and move your body.

But you're still exhausted. Your gut still feels off. Your mood still dips. Something isn't clicking, and it's frustrating.

Healing isn't about trying harder. It's about getting to the root.

When we work together, we don't guess. We test.

We look at your history, your biology, and your symptoms. We connect the dots and build a clear, personalized plan.

Ready for real answers, not more trial and error? Let's get started.

Feeling that tight, achy tension in your neck and shoulders by the end of the workday? Screen time posture puts a lot of strain on your upper body. Here are 3 quick tips you can use today:

1. Chin tucks: Gently pull your chin straight back (like making a double chin), hold for 5 seconds. Repeat 10x. Great for easing that forward head posture.

2. Shoulder blade squeezes: Sit tall and squeeze your shoulder blades together like you're holding a pencil between them. Hold for 5-10 seconds. Repeat a few times an hour.

3. Elbow rolls: Make slow, big backward circles with your elbows to open up your upper back and shoulders. 10 reps every couple of hours can work wonders.

Doing these throughout the day can help keep tension at bay and support better posture long-term.
