Fun facts about our gut microbiome: . 🦠 We have

Fun facts about our gut microbiome:
.
🦠 We have 1000 times more bacterial DNA in our digestive tract than there is in our human DNA!
🦠 It’s all about balance and symbiosis… We can’t live without them and they can’t live without us.
🦠 When our gut bugs are out of balance, it can be too few of the good guys, too many of the bad guys, or a combination of both!
🦠 Gram-negative gut bacteria release byproducts called liposaccharide (LPS)endotoxins that can leak through our intestinal lining and cause systemic toxemia and inflammation. If the gut is hyperpermeable, this can be worse. This can even cause inflammation in our brains, think anxiety and brain fog.
🦠 Stress can suppress the growth of the good guys and stimulate the growth of gram-negative bacteria!
🦠 Gut bacteria also send signals to our brains.
🦠There’s over 100 papers that come out about the gut microbiome on a weekly basis! We are learning so much.
🦠 Our approach in functional medicine is to not take random probiotics with no specific proof any longer, but to take researched strains for specific purposes. The research is growing like crazy therefore the applications are growing, on specific strains for mood, weight loss, metabolism, cholesterol, constipation, diarrhea, and on and on…
.
Test your gut microbes with the G.I. MAP, figure out if you have dysbiosis and what kind, and treat appropriately! Book a discovery call with me if you want to talk more about this and order the G.I. MAP, or go right to my website and order the G.I. MAP today! Easy to do, one small sample at home, send it off with FedEx, results in a week. DNA PCR analysis of your gut microbes.

Constipation hacks! . 👉🏼 First make sure you

When we shift to a Functional Medicine mindset, we

When we shift to a Functional Medicine mindset, we don’t focus on symptom and disease management. which is what Conventional and even Naturopathic medicine can do. A pill for an ill and a supplement for a symptom….
.
Instead we rebalance body systems, get labs in optimal ranges, and align the pillars of lifestyle medicine - food, sleep, rest, joy, social support, movement… and as a SIDE EFFECT nagging and unresolved symptoms clear.
.
It’s a lifestyle-first approach. In my intake forms I ask “Which lifestyle aspects do you feel need help?”

❓Food

❓Movement

❓Support system

❓Fun and play

❓A greater sense of purpose, connection to nature or spirit

❓Sleep

❓A stress reduction practice like meditation, breathwork, yoga, tai chi, prayer, gratitude journal.
.
Now we have evidence and data piling up that shows lifestyle medicine improves health and longevity and reverses disease as a side effect. ❤️

Time to talk about 💩.
.
New blog on taking a root-cause approach to constipation! This is another example of how we address a symptom or issue in Functional Medicine… By asking what is the root cause for the individual. And then when we find the root cause asking why that thing is happening.
.
So for example here is, constipation may be caused by low stomach acid for one person and small intestine bacterial overgrowth for another person. Then our next question is.. WHY low stomach acid? WHY small intestine bacterial overgrowth?

Last post in our theme on how to eat more nutrient

Last post in our theme on how to eat more nutrient-dense, colorful and yummy starches in the form of vegetables.⁠ This is what humans used to eat… before processed grains were everywhere. The fruit-disguised-as-veggie family has so much to offer! They are full of colorful phytonutrients, antioxidants, magnesium, potassium, vitamins C and A.⁠ Many veggies are actually fruits - like zucchini and tomatoes. Here we focus on the starchy ones that can sub for grains - both for those people who need to go grain free or eat less grains, but also for people who just want to expand their nutrient dense plant foods.
.⁠
My latest blog post (link in bio) goes more in-depth into this subject and has a lot of delicious recipe links for these starch “fruit” veggies that may be new to you. Check it out by going to link in bio then clicking on "blog."⁠ - it’s called “Where’s the Bread?”

Yay, it’s official. I actually only have two more modules to complete before qualifying for the certification exam. I took the majority of the modules before taking this last step to apply for certification and commit. It’s because I’m scared of the exam! I won’t be taking it until next fall. So once I’m done with the coursework I have a good six months to study. I look at it as an opportunity to keep reviewing and brushing up on my knowledge and skills in a structured way. But my MD friends say the exam is really hard so… I am intimidated nonetheless.
.
I’m really proud of myself for doing this because IFM is the highest and most respected level of training and certification in the functional medicine field. At least in my opinion! I’ve done a lot of functional medicine training over the past decade, and IFM has always been on my bucket list. The learning never stops!
