Introducing Raden Strong.

“You need to exercise more.” It’s one of the most common recommendations in medicine, and one of the least actionable. Most people walk out of that appointment and genuinely don’t know where to start. If that’s you, you are not alone.

Raden Strong is our clinical strength and conditioning program built around the same principles we apply to every other aspect of your health. Specificity. Personalization. Progressive overload. Designed by Josh D’Alessandro (MS, CSCS), who brings 14 years of personal training and 8 years of clinical exercise physiology inside integrative medicine.

This is not a generic workout plan. It is a monthly remote training protocol built around your biology, your goals, and your life. With unlimited access to Josh, bi-weekly check-ins, video demonstrations, and progress tracking, all in the palm of your hand.

Your sport is life. It’s time to train accordingly.

“Your labs are normal.” Four weeks ago, we said that’s not the whole story. Today, we show you the whole story.

Week 4 of our Mental Health Month series is a look inside what Raden actually evaluates when a patient comes to us with anxiety, depression, or brain fog. It includes hormones, nutrients, inflammation, microbiome and gut markers, and so much more. We test deeper, examining markers that most standard panels miss but which almost always offer crucial insights.

Mental health is biological health. Your anxiety, brain fog, and low mood are signals from a body that deserves the same clinical rigor as any other medical condition. We treat them that way.

If any of these four weeks landed for you, a complimentary intro call is the right next step. Link in bio.

You do not “get through” menopause.

Menopause is the rest of a woman’s life.

And for many women, it marks the beginning of accelerated biologic aging driven by hormonal decline.

Loss of estrogen is associated with changes in brain metabolism, bone density, cardiovascular health, body composition, insulin sensitivity, inflammation, and cognitive resilience.

This is why the conversation around BHRT matters.

Not because women cannot tolerate symptoms.
Because hormones are biologically protective.

Protective to the brain.
Protective to bone.
Protective to muscle.
Protective to the cardiovascular system.

The science is evolving and the fear based narrative around menopause care is finally being challenged.

Women deserve better than being told suffering, decline, and rapid aging are “normal.”

If you’re curious about BHRT, schedule an intro call to get started.

Cortisol doesn’t just make you tired. It rewires your brain.

Chronic cortisol dysregulation shrinks the hippocampus, suppresses progesterone, drives inflammation, and disrupts the deep sleep your nervous system needs to recover. The result looks like anxiety, depression, and emotional reactivity because biologically, that’s exactly what it is.

Week 3 of our Mental Health Month series covers the cortisol-sleep-mood triangle, and why a single morning cortisol draw tells you almost nothing.

Save this. Share with someone running on fumes and wondering why their mental health won’t stabilize.

PCOS just got a new name, and it’s long overdue.

Published this week in The Lancet and reported by CNN and other media outlets, researchers officially renamed Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome to Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome (PMOS). The change took 14 years and 56 global organizations to make happen.

Why does it matter? Because the old name was hiding the real condition. PMOS is not primarily about cysts. It is a full endocrine and metabolic disorder, linked to insulin resistance, cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, liver disease, sleep apnea, anxiety, depression, and infertility. And 70% of the women who have it don’t know.

One quote from the CNN article stopped us: “Somebody’s dietitian tells them one thing, and their psychiatrist tells them another, and their dermatologist tells them another — so they’ve got so many players in their niche and often don’t see the full picture.”

That fragmented care is exactly what we built Raden Wellness to solve. If you’ve been told your labs are normal, your symptoms are just stress, or that nothing connects, swipe. And then let’s talk.

Your anxiety might not be all in your head. It may be your hormones.

Progesterone is a natural anxiolytic. When it drops (in perimenopause, in the luteal phase, under chronic stress) anxiety often rises. Estrogen regulates serotonin and dopamine. Low testosterone is strongly linked to low mood and motivation in both men and women.

Yet for most patients, not one of these hormones is ever tested in relation to their mental health symptoms.

This May, we’re unpacking the clinical overlap between your biology and how you feel. Swipe to start, and follow along all month.

Save this and share it with someone who needs it.

Low energy doesn’t always mean you need more sleep. Sometimes your body is just missing what it needs to actually produce it.

B12 is one of the most common deficiencies we see, and one of the most overlooked. It plays a direct role in red blood cell production, neurological function, and cellular energy metabolism. Without enough of it, everything slows down. Brain fog, fatigue, mood shifts, tingling in the hands and feet. Things that get blamed on stress, age, or just being busy.

The good news? It’s measurable. And it’s fixable.

We offer B12 as part of our IV therapy and IM injection services - fast, direct, and actually felt.

This shade of blue does something your cells actually notice.

You’ve probably seen it. That unmistakable blue. But what most people don’t know is that methylene blue has been used in medicine for over a century, and researchers are only now beginning to understand how powerful it really is.

At the cellular level, it steps directly into the mitochondrial electron transport chain, helping your cells produce energy more efficiently, reducing oxidative stress, and supporting the kind of cognitive clarity that’s hard to get from a supplement bottle.

At Raden, we offer methylene blue across multiple modalities, so we can match the right delivery to your specific goals:

💉 IV Therapy: direct, systemic, fast-acting
⚡ Paired with EBOO or Ozone for amplified cellular effect
💊 Oral capsules for ongoing support
🧴 Topical soaps & creams

Not sure if it’s right for you? If you have a G6PD deficiency or take SSRIs, SNRIs, or MAO inhibitors, we’ll always review your full picture before recommending it. That’s why every conversation starts with a complimentary intro call.
