In every TV ad, social media post, and news report, we've all seen how GLP-1 medications have transformed weight management. And yes, they work. But here's what those ads don't tell you.

The secret to turning good results into amazing results? The lifestyle changes you make alongside the medication.

Weight management is an ongoing journey, not a destination. Just like managing cholesterol, blood pressure, or diabetes, maintaining a healthy weight requires continued support. And at Del Negro Integrative Health, our personalized approach translates into real, measurable results:

➡️ An additional 10 pounds of weight loss
➡️ 2+ inches off the waistline
➡️ Better blood pressure, blood sugar, and cholesterol levels

Success with GLP-1 medications requires a personalized roadmap. We tailor your dosing to minimize side effects and maximize results. And we carefully manage both escalation AND weaning because how you get off these medications matters just as much as how you start.

We help fuel your body right alongside the medication:
✓ Optimizing protein intake to preserve lean muscle
✓ Using continuous glucose monitoring for real-time insights
✓ Incorporating less inflammatory foods
✓ Ensuring adequate hydration
✓ Building strength training into your routine
✓ Prioritizing sleep and stress management

We focus on keeping your lean muscle while losing weight and give you practical tips to manage side effects as they come up.

GLP-1 medications are a powerful tool in our toolbox, but they're not the only tool. Most of our patients transition to much lower dosing with a significant decrease in adverse effects once we've built solid lifestyle-based maintenance strategies.

At Del Negro Integrative Health, we personalize a combination of medical support and lifestyle changes so you're not just losing weight. You're gaining energy, confidence, and a healthier future.

Welcome to Del Negro Integrative Health, a space built for YOU.

I wanted to create more than just a doctor's office. I wanted a place that feels warm, welcoming, and designed around wellness and prevention. Not quick appointments and prescriptions.

Every corner of this space reflects our philosophy: you deserve personalized care, time to be heard, and a partner in your health journey.

This is what functional medicine looks like. Come see for yourself. 💙

Not all probiotics are created equal. And with so many options out there, it's worth knowing what to actually look for before you buy.

A few things I always tell my patients:

Check the expiration date, and look for brands that guarantee potency at expiration, not just at the time it was manufactured. That distinction matters more than most people realize.

Most quality probiotics are shelf-stable for 9 to 18 months, but once you open the bottle, try to use it within a month or two. Air and moisture quietly degrade them faster.

Look for a multi-strain formula. A diverse blend more closely mirrors what a healthy gut actually looks like. For general gut support, I typically recommend somewhere in the range of 5 to 20 billion CFUs.

And if you're on antibiotics, timing is everything. Take your probiotic about 2 hours after your antibiotic dose, so they don't compete with each other.

Your gut health is personal. What works beautifully for one person may not be the right fit for you, and that's completely okay. This is exactly why I love getting into the specifics with my patients rather than just handing everyone the same bottle off a shelf.

Have you found a probiotic that's made a real difference in how you feel? I'd love to hear.



Note: Probiotics alone may not be enough. Food choices, prebiotics, and bowel movements all important too. Always check in with your healthcare provider before starting any new supplement, especially if you have existing health concerns.

Somewhere along the way, food stopped being food.

It became a product. Packaged, modified, engineered for convenience. And quietly disconnected from everything it used to mean.

I think about this a lot with my patients. When did we stop knowing which fruits are actually in season? When did we lose the ability to smell a ripe peach and just know? When did kids stop understanding that their food comes from somewhere real?

That disconnect isn't just cultural. It's showing up in our bodies.
What we eat literally becomes us. Our cells, our hormones, our energy, our mood. I always say it's like building a house. You wouldn't cut corners on the foundation of your dream home. But so many of us are doing exactly that with our bodies every single day without even realizing it.

Caffeine, alcohol, ultra-processed foods, artificial dyes, preservatives. These aren't building materials. They're stressors. Refined sugar gives your body calories without the nutrients it needs to actually use them. And those choices quietly add up in ways we can feel but often can't explain.

Our grandparents didn't need nutrition labels. They just knew food. How it smelled, how to prepare it, what it was for. Food was connection. Tradition. Medicine, even.

That wisdom isn't gone. We just have to choose to come back to it, one real meal at a time.

Rest isn't a reward you earn after you've done everything else. It's part of how your body actually functions.

Even a few minutes of quiet can make a difference. It calms your stress response, brings cortisol down, and gives your brain permission to stop running like something is chasing it. Short pauses support how you regulate emotions, how clearly you think, and how quickly you recover.

This isn't just feel-good advice. It's how your nervous system is wired.
Stepping away from the constant scroll and noise matters too. Every input your brain has to process costs something. Less stimulation means less depletion, and a lot more capacity to actually feel present.

So whatever your reset looks like today, whether that's five minutes outside, silence in the car, or coffee on the back deck before anyone wakes up, take it without apologizing for it.

Quiet isn't indulgent. It's regulatory. And your body has been waiting for it.

So many of my patients come in apologizing for their symptoms. "I know it's probably nothing," they say.

But after years of practice, here's what I know for certain. Your body doesn't send signals without reason.

What if instead of chasing each symptom as it pops up, we actually stopped and listened to what it's trying to tell us?

The patients I've seen make the biggest transformations aren't always the ones with the most dramatic diagnoses. They're the ones who finally paid attention to what their body had been quietly saying. And then gave it what it needed.

Real nourishment. Realistic stress management. Sleep that actually restores. Movement that feels like self-care, not punishment. And the right support when their system needs a little extra help.

Because conditions like heart disease, autoimmune disorders, and diabetes don't just appear out of nowhere. They're almost always preceded by a long season of smaller signals.

The fatigue you kept brushing off, the digestion that was never quite right, the sleep that stopped feeling restful.Your body was talking the whole time. It just needed someone willing to listen.

This February, we're celebrating Heart Health Month with a special offer: $500 off Reboot Wellness when you sign up by February 28th.

Because heart health isn't just about cholesterol numbers on a lab report.

It's about why your inflammation is high. What's throwing off your hormones. How your blood sugar swings are stressing your system. The sleep you're not getting. The chronic stress you're carrying.

Your heart disease risk goes up significantly during perimenopause and menopause. Those hormone shifts aren't just causing hot flashes—they're affecting your cardiovascular health too.

That's why getting to the root cause matters now, not later ❤️

Whether you're 25 or 75, heart health isn't something to put off. It's the foundation for everything else. Here's how to give your heart what it deserves:

❤️ Get your annual checkups. Prevention starts with staying ahead of potential issues.
❤️ Know your numbers (blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar, and in-depth bio-markers, including genetics) that tell the whole story.
❤️ Build healthy and sustainable habits with food, sleep, and movement.
❤️ Find a health partner. The right healthcare partner helps you connect the dots and create a plan that actually works for your life.

You don't have to figure this out alone. We're here to help you build lasting heart health.

You can keep telling yourself you'll start Monday. You can keep waiting for the "right time." You can keep playing it safe. Or you can actually do something different.

Ask yourself:
➡️ What comfort zone are you hiding in?
➡️ What pattern are you ready to drop?
➡️ Where are you playing it too safe?

You don't need to blow up your whole life. But you do need to be honest about what's not working.

Pick one thing. Change it. Start now.
