1. The zinc spark is a phenomenon that occurs at conception. Under a fluorescent sensing microscope, a flash of light is released at conception!

2. Babies can begin to hear around 18 weeks gestation.

3. By 40 weeks a woman’s center of gravity can be displaced up to 6 inches forward.

4. Round ligaments are around 10 cm before pregnancy and by 40 weeks are well over a foot long.

5. A study found that doing ten squats every 45 minutes was as beneficial or more beneficial on blood glucose than a 30 minute walk after meals. These are called “exercise snacks” *

*Moore DR, Williamson EP, Hodson N, Estafanos S, Mazzulla M, Kumbhare D, Gillen JB. Walking or body weight squat "activity snacks" increase dietary amino acid utilization for myofibrillar protein synthesis during prolonged sitting.

What are anthocyanins?

Anthocyanins really are just a pigment created in certain foods, but often times the purple fruits and vegetables (and herbs, like in this tea), contain antioxidants and behave in anti-inflammatory ways.

Specifically, anthocyanins can help with oxidative stress, cardiovascular and cognitive function.

Purple cauliflower, purple sweet potatoes, pea flower, purple cabbage, and eggplant are some options to increase your anthocyanin intake.

Ah yes, a prescription we can get behind.

Every year I talk about “is it flu season or is it sugar and sleep deprivation season?”

Lately in our house, instead of focusing on taking away we’ve been “adding to”.

My professional recommendations for the remainder of the year are to snuggle more, ask children and your spouse daily for something they are thankful for, and as Scouting says, “do a good turn daily”. If you make a pot of soup, double it for a neighbor. If you see trash pick it up. I’m pretty sure kindness and gratitude can fix pretty much any ailment.

Highly would not recommend but to each their own.

Our new office’s outside door is in need of repair. We’re having it looked at but it’s unfortunately out of order. Follow the signs starting at our old office to find us. It’s a great adventure!

Out with the old, and in with the new! Tomorrow is a new day and a new office for the Cotyledon Crew!

We can’t wait to get the space set up with a good flow and find a new and better normal.

We welcomed almost (18 people short!!) 1000 people into this sacred space. We welcomed over 150 new babies into this precious corner off highway 11. We greeted princesses, decoy owls, monster trucks and a few kittens into our little world. And starting Monday morning our world is getting a little bit bigger. Our tiny office that could has grown, both in people and square feet. When you arrive for your next visit, instead of heading for the first exterior door, head on back to the second exterior door. No worries, there will be signs, and Morgan will be herding cats… so basically a normal Monday morning. 🤣🤣🤣

In all seriousness, none of this happens without you! We give our best to our patients, and our patients tell people they love. This is the pinnacle of small business ownership. We are thankful to be a part of your lives, and we hope to help even more people.
