Metabolic health has been a hot topic in my practi

Metabolic health has been a hot topic in my practice lately! I’ve seen so many women in perimenopause struggling with mysterious weight gain, high cholesterol, or blood pressure spikes. After some investigative bloodwork, we often find they’re on the road to compromised metabolic health.

As we age, our metabolic health naturally declines, but perimenopause can speed this up. That’s why it’s crucial to understand your metabolic health markers and make positive changes during this stage.

I’m excited to share that I’m working on a metabolic health program specifically for women and a workshop for those in perimenopause, both coming this fall. Send a DM if you’re interested, and I’ll make sure you get all the details. Meanwhile, check out our latest blog post on women, metabolic health, and perimenopause—link in bio!

Fun little weekend in Vegas with the Paris clan, c

Fun little weekend in Vegas with the Paris clan, celebrating Al Paris’s 90th birthday party! 30 people came from Florida, Ohio and California. The Paris clan originally immigrated from Chios island in Greece, where the plant Mastica (Mastiha) grows. Ironically I‘ve used this plant as herbal medicine for stomach issues for decades before I knew it is a plant unique to my husband’s people’s island.

A really fun and refreshing break from regular life, albeit sizzling hot!🥵 Loving the return to the California coast weather. 🌊 #santacruzlife

First of all, I’m sorry I haven’t been around

First of all, I’m sorry I haven’t been around here in a while! It’s been good for my mental health 🥰

Plus, this spring I have been busy processing the death of my mom at age 87 in April, followed by a long ago planned two week trip to GREECE!!!

I’m pretty much back in mind and body, life is good, lots of things unfolding this year. I’ll drop in more often! But honestly, I encourage many of my patients to stay off social media, and I follow that recommendation. I spend little time here and I recommend that for all.

However… Here I am and this post is all about my new blog which goes into the nuances of weight loss drugs for women- there are definitely pros and there are definitely considerations. I work with women using them, considering them, and not interested in them but wanting to work on metabolic health and weight loss. I support all paths to metabolic health. If you want to read this new blog, just hit the link in bio and go to the blog.

Love you all, Laura

This day is feeling particularly meaningful for me

This day is feeling particularly meaningful for me this year. As some of you know, I recently journeyed to be with my mom and my 8 siblings through her end of life transition, which was April 10. My Aunt Virginia, who is a Catholic nun, wrote a beautiful prayer for the funeral mass, which included love and prayer for our mother Earth. 🌏

Yesterday I went to a song circle led by the amazing @heatherhoustonmusic - which was exactly what my heart needed - and we sang love and prayer for our mother Earth. 🌎

Today, as planned, my group of 10 started my Love Your Liver spring cleanse together, and it feels so right to start this body-nurturing two week journey on Earth Day. I am loving the colorful foods we are eating, given to us from our beautiful mother Earth. 🌍

❤️ Love to all of you.

To support the 6 pathways of Phase 2 liver detox w

To support the 6 pathways of Phase 2 liver detox with food…All you need to do is incorporate these seven food groups into your diet:

1. 𝐀𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐨 𝐀𝐜𝐢𝐝𝐬: Quality protein sources like whey, pea, bone broth protein, tofu, tempeh, lean organic meats, seafood, and eggs furnish vital amino acids essential for liver health.

2. 𝐂𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐢𝐟𝐞𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐕𝐞𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐬: Embrace broccoli, Brussels sprouts, kale, cabbage, cauliflower, radish, turnip, arugula, watercress, bok choy, collard greens, kohlrabi, and mustard greens, abundant in sulfur compounds and phytonutrients vital for detox pathways.

3. 𝐀𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐮𝐦 𝐅𝐨𝐨𝐝𝐬: Indulge in garlic, onions, leeks, chives, scallions, and shallots, brimming with sulfur compounds and antioxidants that bolster liver health.

4. 𝐋𝐞𝐚𝐟𝐲 𝐆𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐧𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐛𝐬: Savor chard, beet greens, spinach, lettuce, cilantro, parsley, and other leafy greens teeming with chlorophyll and antioxidants to amplify liver detoxification.

5. 𝐁𝐢𝐥𝐞-𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐟𝐨𝐨𝐝𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐛𝐬: Incorporate beets, dandelion root tea, milk thistle, dandelion greens, asparagus, and artichoke to foster bile production and optimal liver function.

6. 𝐂𝐢𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐬 𝐅𝐫𝐮𝐢𝐭𝐬: Relish lemons, mandarins, oranges, limes, and tangerines, vibrant with vitamin C and flavonoids.

7. 𝐄𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐅𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐲 𝐀𝐜𝐢𝐝𝐬: Enjoy oily fish like mackerel, sardines, and salmon for DHA and EPA fatty acids. Sprinkle flax, pumpkin, and sesame seeds on your meals for omega-3 and 6 fatty acids.

In our Love Your Liver spring cleanse, we make it easy for you by providing delicious recipes that feature these liver-supportive foods.

While Phase 1 is easily activated by daily foods,

While Phase 1 is easily activated by daily foods, medications, and environmental toxins, Phase 2 often struggles to keep up. Phase 2 requires significant energy and nutrients, and there are six different metabolic pathways involved. Due to nutrient deficiencies, poor gut health, and genetic variations such as MTHFR, Phase 2 often lacks the required ingredients to meet the demands of Phase 1.

Therefore, an effective liver detoxification program should focus on providing Phase 2 nutrients to support the liver in eliminating toxins and waste products.

Navigating this nutritional terrain may seem daunting, but rest assured; you don’t need a biochemistry degree. With a strategic dietary roadmap, you can effortlessly meet each Phase 2 pathway’s demands through carefully selected foods.

More details in the next post!
