Studies show that carrying excess weight in midlife (ages 35–65) is linked to a higher risk of dementia later on.

And here’s the part most women feel but rarely talk about: Losing weight in midlife is just harder. Your metabolism shifts, hormones fluctuate, muscle mass naturally declines, and strategies that used to work… suddenly don’t.

That doesn’t mean you’re doing anything wrong. It means your body needs a different approach, one that actually matches this stage of life. This isn’t all about appearance anymore. It’s about long-term health.

✨ You deserve to feel better. Book your consultation and let’s uncover the ‘why’ behind your symptoms and create a plan that feels doable, personal, and effective.

Recent research found that people with anxiety disorders tend to have about 8% lower choline levels in key brain regions, especially the prefrontal cortex. This area of the brain governs emotion regulation, decision-making, and stress response.

Choline is a lesser-known but essential nutrient that supports healthy brain cell membranes, helps regulate mood and stress responses and is required for memory, cognitive function, and neural communication.

When choline is low, your brain may react more strongly to stress, making everyday triggers feel overwhelming.

✅ What you can consider doing (with care + support)

• Reassess your diet. Many people don’t get enough choline. Foods rich in choline include egg yolks, liver, fish, and certain legumes/beans.
• Support overall brain-nutrient status with healthy fats, balanced meals, blood-sugar stability, and gut health (since nutrient absorption matters).
• If appropriate, and under supervision, consider choline-supportive supplementation or dietary adjustments.
• Combine nutrition with nervous‐system support: sleep hygiene, stress-reduction, gentle movement, and lifestyle patterns that support brain resilience.

So many people feel rushed, unheard, or stuck in a cycle of symptoms without real answers.

What part of the traditional system has felt the most challenging for you?

Is it short appointment times?
Feeling dismissed?
No clear plan?
Only treating the symptom and not the cause?
Missed diagnoses?

Let's talk in the comments!

A major global review just confirmed what many of us suspect: over 75% of people worldwide get far less of the omega-3 fats (EPA & DHA) than experts recommend.

EPA and DHA are key for heart health, brain function, inflammation regulation, immune balance, and healthy metabolism. For many people, especially those who don’t regularly eat fatty fish, diet alone isn’t enough to hit healthy omega-3 levels.

If you feel stuck in your health with low energy, brain fog, mood ups and downs, inflammation, or metabolic sluggishness, insufficient omega-3 intake might be a hidden factor.
Consider adding sustainably sourced EPA/DHA (or eating more oily fish, when appropriate) to support long-term health across nervous system, heart, metabolism & immune function.

Colds, flares, and crashes don’t happen randomly. They’re the result of load + threshold.

When your body hits its limit from poor sleep, processed food, unprocessed emotions, or silent infections… the immune system sends a message.

Symptoms are that message.

Instead of suppressing the symptom, let's ask:
🧭 What filled the stress bucket?
🧰 What can we remove to lower the load?

This is how we stop treating sickness as “bad luck” and start seeing it as intelligent feedback.

Your symptoms are messengers. Let’s decode them together. Book your consult and get matched with the right labs, tools, and support.

Statins are widely used to lower cholesterol and support heart health, but they can also deplete important nutrients. A review in Expert Review of Clinical Pharmacology found that statins may lower:

• CoQ10 — vital for energy + heart muscle function
• Vitamin D — supports bones, immunity, and cardiovascular health
• Vitamins A, E, and K — key for antioxidant protection, vision, and clotting

Why does this matter? Low CoQ10 may contribute to muscle aches and fatigue and long-term depletion of vitamins D, A, E, or K can affect overall health over time.

Supporting your body while on statins involves talking with your provider about CoQ10, including foods rich in vitamin D and fat-soluble vitamins, and periodic blood work to check nutrient levels.

So many people carry stories, symptoms, and concerns that never get voiced simply because no one asked the right question.
Sometimes the most important part of your health isn’t a lab result...it’s your lived experience.

What question do you wish someone in healthcare would actually ask you - the one that would make you feel seen, heard, and understood?

Medical anxiety is real. It's is your nervous system remembering past experiences where you felt dismissed, rushed, confused, or not fully heard. When that memory gets triggered, your body shifts into protection mode. It automatically prepares for the worst-case scenario to protect you.

Here are 3 simple ways to ease that response and calm anxiety before a consult or procedure:

1️⃣ Breathe: Before you enter the building A slow inhale + long exhale helps signal safety to your nervous system.

2️⃣ Bring notes: Write down symptoms, questions, or concerns so your brain doesn’t have to hold everything under stress.

3️⃣ Ground your senses: Notice 3 things you see, 2 things you can touch, 1 thing you can hear. This pulls you out of anxiety and into the present.

Not all magnesium works the same and choosing the right form can make a huge difference depending on your goals. Here’s the quick breakdown of these two forms:

✨ Magnesium Glycinate: Think of glycinate as your relax + restore magnesium.

Best for: sleep, stress, anxiety, muscle tension
Benefits include:
• Highly absorbable
• Gentle on the stomach
• Calming effect on the nervous system
• Great for people who run “tense,” wired, or struggle winding down

⚡ Magnesium Citrate: Citrate is your go-to when digestion needs a little help moving along.

Best for: constipation, sluggish digestion
Benefits:
• Draws water into the intestines
• Helps promote regular bowel movements
• Still supports muscles, but less calming than glycinate

As always, speak with your healthcare provider for accurate dosing and recommendations tailored to you.
