PCOS is essentially a miscommunication stemming from your pituitary gland -- and there can be a lot that is disrupted because of it!
It's not uncommon for us to see women who have insulin resistance, or insulin issues, who also have PCOS. But luckily, there's a lot that we can do naturally to fix it.
aliciamccubbins.nd breaks it down for us in her latest video!

Did you know that negative ions can have a positive impact on your mood?
Those cozy, rainy autumn days might actually be doing you more good than you think.
We’re surrounded by “positive ions” every day, from our phones, Wi-Fi, and computers, and too much exposure can leave us feeling drained, tense, or overstimulated. Negative ions, on the other hand, are naturally abundant in rain, forests, waterfalls, and ocean air. They help balance our nervous systems, improve oxygen flow to the brain, and promote a sense of calm and clarity.
So next time it rains, open a window, take a deep breath, or step outside for a few moments. Let nature do what it does best, restore balance and help you feel more grounded.

You don’t need an entirely new routine or wellness overhaul to start feeling better. As the days get shorter and the weather cools, it’s common to feel a dip in energy, mood, or motivation, your body is responding to seasonal changes.
Instead of pushing harder, try slowing down and tuning in. Small, intentional shifts can make a big difference: getting morning sunlight, nourishing your body with grounding foods, prioritizing quality sleep, and creating moments of calm throughout your day.
As we move into winter, remember, your body’s needs evolve with the seasons. Listening to those signals is the first step toward truly supporting your health from the inside out.

At Vytal Health, our mission is to embrace functional medicine’s full potential, including emerging approaches like micro-dosing GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs). While GLP-1s are well-known in conventional medicine for diabetes and weight loss, we’re witnessing growing interest in their broader applications, especially among functional medicine clinicians seeking to unlock deeper healing for inflammation, gut health, and mast cell activation.

Why is it important to test before taking supplements?
aliciamccubbins.nd highlights the importance of knowing what supplements and medications to take before following widespread advice online. Sometimes taking a supplement you don't need can cause more harm than good. That's where we can help. Our team of doctors are happy to help you get to the root cause of your health concerns and give you a proper protocol that aligns with your true needs.
Hormonal birth control is one of the most widely used tools in women’s health. It can be life-changing for preventing pregnancy and reducing difficult symptoms like heavy periods, acne, or painful cramps. But for many women, the pill and other hormonal contraceptives also come with side effects that impact mood, metabolism, gut health, and fertility.
At Vytal Health, our functional medicine providers take a whole-body approach to women’s hormones. Whether you’re currently on birth control or considering coming off, we can help you understand how your body is responding and support your health through testing, nutrition, lifestyle, and targeted treatment plans.https://vytalhealth.com/functional-medicine-and-birth-control-supporting-your-health-on-and-off-the-pill/

You deserve to live your healthiest life. Traditional healthcare has left patients fighting for quality time with their doctors, making them feel helpless, misunderstood and ultimately dismissed. We’re here to change that.
