Low iron is common, but the best treatment depends on why it’s low.

For many people, oral iron is the first option. In some cases, an iron infusion may be considered when oral iron isn’t tolerated, isn’t being absorbed well, isn’t improving levels adequately, or when iron needs to be replenished more efficiently.

Before recommending an iron infusion, a thorough assessment is important. This may include reviewing symptoms, health history, medications, menstrual blood loss, digestion, and bloodwork such as CBC, ferritin, iron, transferrin saturation, and TIBC.

The goal isn’t simply to “get more iron.”

The goal is to understand the cause of low iron, choose the most appropriate treatment option, and monitor progress safely.

For many people, anxiety can show up as over-preparing, people-pleasing, perfectionism, or feeling unable to rest without guilt.

From the outside, it may look like motivation, discipline, or reliability. Internally, it can feel like pressure, tension, and fear of disappointing others. That is why it can be helpful to ask: “What is driving me?”

Healthy motivation leaves room for rest and flexibility, but anxiety-driven productivity can feel like you are constantly trying to stay ahead of failure.

The goal is not to label ambition as bad. The goal is to notice when achievement becomes the only way you feel safe, valued, or in control.

Success matters.
Your nervous system matters too.

What you do after your massage can influence how you feel in the hours and days that follow. To support your recovery and help you get the most from your treatment, focus on these aftercare essentials:

💧 Hydrate
🧘 Down-Regulate
😴 Rest

🔥 Pro Tip: Pair your massage with an infrared sauna session for the ultimate relaxation and recovery experience.

When you give your body time to recover, you’re supporting the benefits of your treatment and investing in your long-term well-being.

Protein is one of those nutrition topics we hear about often, but the details matter.

It is not just about “eating more protein.” It is about getting enough high-quality protein in a way that supports your activity level, muscle maintenance, appetite, metabolism, and long-term health.

While many Canadians may meet the minimum requirements for protein, minimum is not always the same as optimal. Your needs can vary based on age, activity level, health goals, muscle mass, appetite, and overall diet quality.

A few simple ways to improve your intake:

⭐ Add a little more protein to one meal or snack and build from there.
⭐ Lean meats, fish, eggs, Greek yogurt, lentils, tofu, nuts, and seeds can all fit depending on your preferences and goals.
⭐ No food scale? For lean meat or fish, the palm of your hand is roughly 20 - 30g of protein.
⭐ For many people, breakfast is lower in protein than lunch or dinner. An omelette, cottage cheese with fruit, a protein-rich smoothie, or leftovers can help.

The goal isn’t perfection. The goal is consistency, quality, and habits that fit your lifestyle.

Ever wondered what an osteopathy session actually looks like?

At The Longevity Lab, osteopathy is a gentle, hands-on therapy that starts with understanding how your body is moving, where you may be feeling restriction, and what kind of support makes sense for you.

Treatment may include techniques that work with the joints, fascia, head and neck area, or other areas of the body depending on your needs.

The goal is to support better mobility, alignment, and whole-body function, without a one-size-fits-all approach.

Fibermaxxing is the trend of trying to get as much fibre into your diet as possible. Usually this means adding more high fibre foods, seeds, powders, bars, cereals, or fibre-fortified snacks throughout the day.

And to be fair, the idea behind it is not bad. Most people could benefit from more fibre, especially when it comes from a variety of whole foods like vegetables, fruit, oats, legumes, nuts, and seeds.

Fibre helps support digestion, regularity, fullness, and a healthy gut microbiome. But here’s where it can get tricky. When fibre intake increases too quickly, your gut may not love it. Even if the fibre is coming from healthy foods, adding too much at once can lead to bloating, gas, cramping, constipation, or loose stools.

The other thing to watch is where the fibre is coming from. A lot of “high fibre” packaged foods use added or isolated fibres. These can be helpful for some people, but they can also be harder to tolerate, especially if you’re eating a lot of them.

The goal is not to force fibre into everything. The goal is to build up slowly, choose whole foods more often, drink enough water, and pay attention to how your body responds.

More is not always better. Your gut needs time to adjust.
