Brain fog is NOT normal, but there is rarely just one thing causing it. Good news is… it’s treatable!

Blood sugar swings, hormone imbalance, inflammation, nutrient deficiencies, chronic stress, poor sleep, gut issues, allergies, and even dehydration can all play a role.

The goal isn’t to push through, it’s to find the root cause.

When your body is supported the right way, mental clarity comes back. Focus improves. Energy stabilizes. You feel like yourself again.

You don’t have to live in a fog.

Have you had your annual physical this year? What about recent bloodwork?

If you’re 25 or older, yearly labs are an important way to stay ahead of your health, monitoring things like cholesterol, vitamin levels, and more. Taking care of your body should be just as routine as maintaining your car.

At One Heart, primary care is about more than prescriptions, it’s about prevention. Annual visits, well-child checks, screenings, and lab work all play a key role in keeping you healthy long-term.

Our goal? Not just normal levels, but optimized health.

When I finished grad school, I swore I was done… famous last words, right??? But my habit of asking questions and not finding answers led me down a deeper road.

I have spent too much time in school to know that I am not done learning, but another opportunity to practice medicine is just beginning.

Traditional medicine treats the symptoms. Functional takes a deeper look to root cause. Food is medicine. All things I am beyond passionate about and the two together has so much ability to change lives!

The last 18 months has been beyond hard, and I thought this program would be a whole lot easier than it was. In the midst of this, I started my own health journey, lost 25 pounds, changed my thyroid levels, stopped palpitations and never took the first GLP or thyroid pill. It’s been hard… so hard. But James makes it clear- rejoice in trial and suffering and above all God is faithful. Finding joy when life is hard is not easy… but opening the mailbox today brought so much joy!

All the 3:30 am mornings paid off! I get to add a few more initials behind the name just to confuse myself more!

I am so thankful to begin the next part of my story and see what doors God opens! New things to come soon!

3. Get natural sunlight within 30 minutes of waking up.

🌎 Earth Day reminder: your environment shapes your health!

The air you breathe, the water you drink, and the soil your food grows in all matter more than we think.

Be mindful of these everyday choices:
• What goes down your drains
• What leaches into ponds & creeks
• Where and how you use fertilizers & pesticides
• How often your septic system is maintained

These small decisions impact your water, your soil, and ultimately your body- affecting toxin exposure, gut health, and immune function.

Taking care of the environment is one more way to take care of yourself and your family.

Small changes at home can make a real difference for your family and your community.

Standard thyroid tests often look at broad reference ranges, not what’s ideal for your specific body. That means you can be told everything is “fine” while still dealing with fatigue, weight changes, brain fog, hair thinning, anxiety, or feeling off in ways you can’t explain.

Your thyroid is part of a bigger hormonal system. If you’re struggling, it’s worth asking deeper questions, looking at a fuller picture, and advocating for answers.

You deserve to feel well, not just be told you’re “within range.”

Want to lower inflammation without overcomplicating things?

Start here:
• Cut back on sugar and processed foods.
• Add omega-3 fatty acids to your diet. (Like salmon!)
• Prioritize 7–8 hours of quality sleep each night.

Simple steps make a real impact on your overall health.

Curious where you stand? Inflammation markers can be checked with a quick blood test in-office. Schedule an appointment and take a closer look at your health.

Wellness Wednesday 🌿

Did you know that walking just one mile a day can make a big difference in your health? It helps strengthen your bones, supports heart health, aids in weight management, and is one of the simplest ways to reduce stress.

Even if you’re on your feet all day at work, getting outside for a walk brings added benefits: fresh air, sunlight, and a mental reset that indoor movement just can’t replace.

Where’s your favorite place to get outside and walk?

Medical Mind Monday: Bee Stings 🐝

As a healthcare professional, one of the most serious emergencies I have encountered was treating a child in anaphylaxis due to a bee sting.

If you or your child has a known bee allergy and carries an epinephrine auto-injector (EpiPen), this is your gentle reminder to check that it is:
• Not expired
• Easily accessible (not buried in a bag or left in a car)
• Known how and when to use

With warmer months increasing bee activity, preparedness truly saves lives.

For mild bee stings (no signs of allergic reaction):
• Remove the stinger as quickly as possible (scrape, don’t squeeze)
• Apply a cold compress or ice to reduce swelling and pain
• Consider an oral antihistamine or topical anti-itch cream for symptom relief

🚨 Seek emergency care immediately if there are signs of an allergic reaction such as:
- Trouble breathing or wheezing
- Swelling of the lips, tongue, or face
- Widespread hives
- Dizziness or fainting

Stay prepared, stay aware, and protect your family this season.

Your labs can be “normal” and you can still feel terrible. Normal levels are not always optimal.

Stop settling for “you’re fine.”

Stress Awareness 🤍

Stress is something both kids and adults face. While occasional anxiety is normal, it shouldn’t take over your daily life.

Here are a few simple ways to help manage stress throughout your week:

• Practice deep breathing to calm your nervous system.
• Spend time outdoors. Walks and fresh air can make a big difference.
• Take intentional breaks from screens and phones to allow your mind to rest.

If anxiety is starting to impact your everyday life, it may be time to seek extra support. We can help guide you, and lab work can often provide helpful insight to get you feeling your best again.
