Hope for Healing Primary Care & Functional Medicine Practice
Pediatrics • Adults • Chronic • Acute Care
Evidence-based
Personalized

If you or your child are dealing with a complex health issue, come to Hope for Healing where we apply a functional medicine approach to healthcare for adults and children in the greater Houston, Texas area. Everyone, whether feeling healthy or less than 100%, should obtain their genetic data and learn how they can optimize their health, longevity, and wellness. We arrange for genetic testing and provide interpretation of genetic data and a corresponding treatment plan. Our functional medicine and pediatrics practice focuses on genetics, nutrition and wellness and aims to get to the root of the issue at hand.

This week’s SNP Snip is GAD1, a gene that helps convert glutamate (excitatory) into GABA, the brain’s main calming neurotransmitter. GABA supports nervous system regulation and deep, restorative sleep.

When this pathway is off, it can contribute to symptoms like teeth grinding, muscle tension, night awakenings, night terrors, fatigue, and mood changes.

Understanding genes like GAD1 helps explain why these patterns show up and how the body may need support.

Fatigue is not always about sleep or stress. Sometimes the body is tired because cells are overloaded with acids and debris. Water helps move that waste out so energy can rise.💧

A simple place to start:
Drink half your body weight in ounces of water per day.

For many people, migraines are linked to inflammation and food triggers. 🧠🍴

Gluten, dairy, and histamine-rich foods can raise inflammatory load and make symptoms harder to manage and less predictable.

The good news is that small shifts can make a meaningful difference. Identifying triggers and lowering inflammatory load often helps lessen severity and frequency over time.

Migraines don’t have to be something you push through. 🧠

From a root-cause lens, genetics can contribute, but so can blood flow, nutrient deficiencies, and neurologic triggers. Understanding why migraines happen often gives patients more options than Botox or symptom-only meds.

If migraines run in your family or you’ve been told you’ll have to live with them, you’re not stuck.

Every child’s biology is different, so their care should be too.

As a pediatric provider with over 35 years of experience, Dr. K reminds families of something essential:
There is no one-size-fits-all approach to children’s health.

In our practice, we focus on understanding a child’s physiology, how their immune system responds, how they process inflammation, and how environmental stressors affect their body.

Genetics don’t tell parents what choice to make.
They give clarity, context, and support. So decisions feel calmer, more intentional, and aligned with each child’s unique needs.

When families understand biology, care becomes personalized not fear-driven.

✨ Curious if this approach is right for your family?
We offer a free welcome call to answer questions, walk through our philosophy, and help you decide next steps with no pressure.

🚨Is Your Immune System Missing Its Brakes? 🚨

If you’ve tried everything and still don’t feel like yourself, it may not be willpower, or “doing more”; it could be your CTLA-4 gene.

🧬 CTLA-4 is your immune system’s brake pedal.
When it isn’t working well, your immune system never slows down. No rest. No reset. Just constant output until the body burns out.

This overdrive state is linked to:
⚠️ Autoimmunity
⚠️ Chronic inflammation
⚠️ Increased cancer risk
⚠️ Neuroimmune conditions, including autism

The hopeful part?

This gene can be supported and modulated with targeted, clinician-guided tools like:
✔️ High-dose fish oil
✔️ Low-dose naltrexone (LDN)
✔️ Vitamin D
✔️ PEA

You’re not hopeless. Your body may just need the right support.

👉 Follow @‌get2theroot.co for SNP Snips every Friday
👉 Save this if immune fatigue resonates
