Super Star D!
And the winner of the Nutritional Nutrient Academy Award this year is…drumroll…Vitamin D. Yet nearly 80% of my patients are living with suboptimal or deficient levels of vitamin D. This same crisis is plaguing the entire country.For many years D has played a supporting role to Calcium’s leading actor status in the body. This is because D helps our body absorb calcium. But due to recent medical research, D’s performance has skyrocketed to the A-List. It really deserves an Academy Award winning status for so many reasons. Let’s look at why.Why is Vitamin D so important?“There is a vitamin D receptor on every one of our cells,” says Michael F. Holick, PhD, MD, author of The Vitamin D Solution. “And those receptors are there for a reason. Actually many reasons—all of our bodily functions seem to rely on the nutrient, and studies show that it’s key to helping prevent everything from migraines to cancer.”
10 Super Foods for Weight Loss
| It’s that time of year—bathing suit season! Not one of us (if we’re honest) is immune to “bathing suit anxiety.” You know. The feeling you get when you try your bathing suit on for the first time all year.I want to make that first reveal a little less stressful. There is a plethora of books and articles telling us what not to eat to lose weight. Like you read in my last month’s newsletter, I’m all about adding the good stuff before subtracting (not that we shouldn’t subtract, but first things first).These superfoods are nutritional powerhouses that will help you build bones, supercharge your immune system and get you bathing suit ready. |
Paitent Testimony
| “I was referred to Lindy by a dear friend whom I will forever be grateful. I sought Lindy’s help for two reasons… I have suffered with eczema for almost 20 years with minimal relief from the medical field and I have major mood swings that play havoc in all my relationships.When I came to Lindy I had exhausted all other resources and was getting nowhere. My doctor just kept pushing medication, all of which was either ineffective or had bad side effects. Lindy was very knowledgeable and professional. She took very thorough notes and assessments of all my eating habits. She challenged me to be more intentional and discerning. She suspected food intolerances. She also helped me to find some natural supplements that have helped me to not only balance my mood but make me feel energized and motivated again.One thing that really impressed me about Lindy is how devoted she is to her patients. She makes herself accessible for my multitude of questions, whether email or text….Lindy responded promptly. I truly believe this was key to my success because it help me stay focused and I knew she was there for me. Lindy is not only my nutritionist but she has become a life long friend. I am so blessed to have found her :-) “Genevieve, age 32 |
