Repost from Dr. Jaban Moore - "MORE THAN 2 BILLION PEOPLE in the world today are estimated to be deficient in key vitamins & minerals (WHO). According to a US national survey, 94.3% of the US population do not meet the daily requirement for vitamin D, 88.5% for vitamin E, 52.2% for magnesium, 44.1% for calcium, 43.0% for vitamin A, and 38.9% for vitamin C! Iron deficiency affects more than 25% of people worldwide. 🌱Plus, studies show that up to 80–90% of vegetarians & vegans may be deficient in vitamin B12 (PMID: 24667752, PMID: 23356638). &, more than 20% of older adults may also be deficient in this vitamin since absorption decreases with age (PMID: 15289425). Nutrient deficiencies can have MAJOR consequences for your health, culminating in chronic illnesses, symptoms, & diseases. Vitamin deficiencies, such as those in Vitamins A, D, B12, & C, can lead to a range of issues from weakened !mmunity to neurological problems! Poor intake & absorption of minerals can lead to anemia, thyroid disorders, & more!⚖️ Plus, infections and toxicities may impact a person more severely if they are nutrient deficient! For example, Vitamin B6 & C deficiencies are associated with poor tolerance of heavy metals and easier toxicity! A 2018 study also stated thart a “vitamin D deficiency leads to dysbiosis of gut microbiome” (PMID: 30181757). ⭐Some of the TOP problems I see in deficiencies are MALABSORPTION, LOW STOMACH ACID, POOR LIVER/GALLBLADDER HEALTH, & INFECTIONS! Addressing these issues can help you replenish your body with the nutrients it NEEDS!⭐ These deficiencies manifest GRADUALLY & SLOWLY, with symptoms worsening over time & potentially increasing the risk of more severe health conditions! Preventing nutrient deficiencies requires maintaining a BALANCED DIET rich in diverse nutrients, SUPPLEMENTED when necessary, & regular CHECK UPS to address any underlying deficiencies before they escalate into chronic illness!"

SO many of my clients have "normal" labs and are told they should feel ok even though they don't. This is the thing about labs.... result ranges aren't based off of optimal levels, they're based off of averages from the standard American.... which we know are far from optimal. This is especially true when it comes to thyroid testing. Check out the below normal vs optimal thyroid levels. Normal ranges are what most docs use as a barometer for healthy thyroid function, whereas optimal is what many integrative or functional medicine providers will go by. Thyroid dysfunction stems from toxins, pathogens, nutrient deficiencies and poor gut health. Once these get addressed, the thyroid can heal.

YESSSSSSS! Going into the weekend with all the positive vibes. Repost from @liikkeli. #bethelight #manifestyourdreams #manifesting #positivevibes #shinebrighter #dancelikenooneiswatching #naturalhealing

Even Presidential candidate & medical freedom activist RFKJ isn't immune to parasites. Not only did docs find a worm in his brain over a decade ago, but the worm was actually EATING away at it. Parasites can manifest all throughout the body, not just the gut. And they are linked to virtually every chronic condition you can think of. If you're wondering if your symptoms could be linked to parasites, shoot me a DM!

Gain invaluable insights into your digestive health through in-depth analysis of intestinal parasites & related organisms. This comprehensive analysis delves into the world of intestinal parasites, covering a wide range of species including (Protozoa, Trematodes,Tapeworms, Nematodes), as well as various strains of yeast, candida and fungi, sourced from all seven continents.  This meticulous assessment includes an analysis of essential bio-indicators like red and white blood cells, mucus, fatty acid crystals, starch granules, undigested tissue, beneficial bacteria, epithelial cells, pollen, and charcot-leyden crystals. ​ Parasitology Center Inc.'s test is up to 55% more accurate than standard parasite tests and 33% less expensive which is why I've decided to partner with them for stool testing moving forward. There are many reasons why most parasite testing falls short, mainly because: 1. Stool testing assumes that parasites reside in the colon, but parasites can manifest all throughout the body. 2. Many parasites aren't eliminated via stool until they die. If you aren't actively cleansing, they may not exit. 3. There are hundreds of parasite species and there are only tests for about 40. You can read more about parasite testing shortcomings here. Click here for a sample report of PCI's comprehensive stool test & GI map, and click here for collection instructions.

Cinco de Mayo vibes!!! I eat an avocado every day. If you're getting your guac on, I wanted to give you some food for thought. . Due to increasing global demand, some Mexican farmers are illegally cutting down forests to create farmland for avocados. Cartels have also gotten involved because of the high profitability and often demand a cut of grower's profits. Growers that refuse to pay face violence which is why avocados from Mexico are often referred to as "blood avocados." To make sure your Mexican avocados support ethical farming and environmental practices, look for stickers that say "Equal Exchange" or "Fair Trade Certified." Enjoy all the avocados today - those awesome monounsaturated fats help protect against heart disease & strokes. Just make sure to buy domestic to avoid supporting the connection to drug cartels. #bloodavocados #cincodemayo #FairTradeCertified #buydomestic #buyorganic #eatorganic #avocados #avo #eatyourveggies #foodismedicine #nutrition #nutritionist #holistic #feelbetter #EqualExchange #votewithyourfork #shoplocal #farmersmarket #buylocal #supportlocal #farmers #supportfarmers #SupportSmallBusiness #eatorganic #organic #natural #foodismedicine #eattherainbow #lookgoodfeelgooddogood

Did you know 81% of mental health workers shared anecdotal evidence of a connection between mental illness and the full moon? They noticed their patients experienced increases in anger, irritability, anxiety, depression, headaches and panic attacks around the full moon. Patients with bipolar disorder switched rapidly from a depressive state to mania. If you struggle with any of these and notice symptoms are accentuated around the full moon the catalyst could be parasitic infection. Parasites are more active around the full moon when your body naturally produces more serotonin (which they are attracted to) and less melatonin (which helps your immune system fight them). Parasites interfere with neurotransmitters like serotonin, dopamine, gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and acetylcholine. All of these neurotransmitters impact mental health and mood. GABA calms the body and helps prevent anxiety. While it's a calming agent for people, it paralyzes parasites. Parasites release chemicals to hinder GABA production to protect themselves. Low GABA levels can trigger anger, anxiety, depression, headaches, panic attacks and more. Parasites cause dopamine levels to rise which tricks the immune system from recognizing them. They also need dopamine to reproduce. Elevated dopamine leads to anxiety, aggression and agitation, depression, hyperactivity, increased stress and insomnia. Parasites have serotonin receptors and hijack this hormone, making you deficient. Low levels of serotonin are typically associated with anxiety, depression, and insomnia. Parasites feed on acetylcholine for nourishment. Low levels of acetylcholine can leave you feeling drained, moody and confused. This month's full moon is on 23rd. It's a great time to try parasite cleansing, perfect time to knock them out! #parasites #parasiticinfection #parasiteinfestation #fullmoondetox #fullmoonparasitecleanse #decreaseanxiety #depression #mentalillness #mooddisorder #GABA #gammaaminobutyricacid #seratonin #melatonin #dopamine #acetylcholine #reducestressnaturally #insomniaremedies #neurotransmitters #frostmoon #hyperactivity #mentalhealth #tapeworm #ascaris #pinworm #ropeworm #strongyloides #liverfluke #cellcore #parasitedieoff #parasitedetox

Did you know that the majority of imported olive oil has been adulterated?  Many are either rancid or cut with toxic seed oils like canola, sunflower, safflower or soy. Seed and vegetable oils contain a massive amount of linoleic acid which results in excess oxidative stress, metabolism and mitochondrial dysfunction, obesity and radical loss of energy production. It also impairs apoptosis, fostering cancer growth. As the use of these oils has greatly increased in the past 100 years, so has the rate of chronic disease. These include commonly used vegetable, canola, peanut, sunflower, safflower, corn and soybean oils. Because of the high profits tied to phony olive oil sales, olive oil imported from Italy may also be tied to organized crime. If you're consuming olive oil to realize all of its amazing health benefits, you need to make sure it's pure. The tips in slides should help!

Listen to the crazy life cycle of parasitic flukes and why they're SO much easier to contract than you think. #flukes #liverflukes #parasitecleansejourney #parasitecleanseupdate #tapewormsinmypoopoohole #tapewormremoval #strongyloides #strongyloidesstercoralis #roundworms #dewormer #dewormyourself #dewormyourfamily #naturalparasitecleanse #parasitecleanseinbio #parasitecleanseprotocol #cellcorecleanse #cellcore

A lot of folks get caught up in where parasites come from and think they can make diet modifications to avoid them. The thing is - parasites are unavoidable.  We will always be in contact with them - not just from undercooked meat, pork and sushi but from fruits, veggies, walking barefoot, swimming in recreational water (many aren't killed by chlorine), tap water which also includes the water you shower with.  They can also be airborne, sexually transmitted, passed in utero and through bug bites and stings. Since we will always be exposed to them, we should spend less time concerned about contracting them and more time making sure our internal environmental terrain isn't hospitable to them so that they can't thrive. How do we do this? -You have to parasite cleanse regularly.  My family does it 2-3 times a year. -You have to reduce your toxic burden because parasites thrive on toxins.  You should strive to eat a clean, whole foods organic, non gmo diet and drink filtered water (distilled is best).  Make sure what you put on your body is clean as well - including toiletries, fragrance and even clothing - most people don't realize how toxic those synthetic fibers are.  Cotton, wool and linen are the best fabrics. Use the Yuka app to scan products to learn how clean they actually are because greenwashing is real. -Reduce your toxic burden around your home, I like to start with the bedroom because that's where we spend more of our time and we need make sure our sleep is restorative, which won't be the case if our room is full of toxins. Buy organic pillows and bedding, get air purifying plants and EMF protection. Minimize smart devices around the house because of the radiation they emit. I recently got new flooring and I stumped the floor reps at first when I asked to look at the non-toxic flooring.  That extends to paint and even furniture as well - always look for the low-tox options. -Even toxic emotions suppress your immune function so practice gratitude everyday and consider somatic exercises to help release trauma from the body. You can't just throw a bunch of herbs or pills at a parasite problem.  You need to take a holistic approach to health if you want to keep parasitic infections at bay.

It's International Dance Day so I have to shout out my not so tiny dancer. Her dance team is fierce and these kids are legit athletes. They BRING it. Go Fusion Dance Team! I'm super lucky that several other dance moms are crunchy like me and our girls are learning how to fuel their bodies for performance. What does not go into my dancer's body... Artificial colors Artificial flavors Processed food Foods high in sugar/seed oils Minimal gluten/dairy Soda & sports drinks like Prime or Gatorade We focus on a clean, whole foods diet that's mainly organic or at the very least non-GMO. Lots of protein, fruits, veggies and healthy fats. Our kids can FEEL the difference when they eat the junk at the birthday parties and know that eating healthy isn't just about maintaining a healthy weight but it fosters good energy, focus, mood and athletic performance. It's not as hard as you think to feed your kids good, clean food. They are worth it! #eatcleanfood #goorganic #healthykidsfood #foodismedicine #GMOfree #eatorganic #organiccandy #artificialcolors #noartificialcolors #foodcoloring #red3 #red40 #blue1 #blue2 #green3 #titaniumdioxide #highfructosecornsyrum #organictreats #allnaturalcandy #noartificialingredients #eattherainbow #livehealthy #fightcancer #guthealth #healthyweight #banfoodcoloring #dairyfree #glutenfree #nonGMO
