Sparkle Health

Sparkle Health Tools & direction, through Functional & Osteopathic Medicine, to help you invest in your health.

We believe in reverse medicine, meaning we work to reverse the causes of chronic disease. There are many factors that contribute to the development of chronic symptoms. We ask WHY medical problems or symptoms occur, help identify root causes and formulate a personalized treatment plan. Personalized and Functional Medicine can provide meaningful results in the health of the individual and the health of the community.

September is National Fruits and Veggies Month, and fall produce is one of the easiest ways to eat the rainbow without trying hard. πŸŽπŸŽƒ

Apples, pears, winter squash, and carrots are all in season right now, and each brings a different mix of fiber, antioxidants, and micronutrients to your plate. Variety matters as much as quantity here. Different colors mean different nutrients.

Grab a mix at the farmers market this week and let your plate do double duty as dinner and medicine.

FAQ Friday! πŸ”

"What happens if I notice a side effect from something in my treatment plan?"

Stop using that supplement or medication and send a portal message to Dr. Mercuro right away. The patient portal is the fastest way to reach our team for anything that isn't a medical emergency.

Questions about something in your current plan? Message us through the portal any time.

FAQ Friday! πŸ”

"I don't live in NH, can I still be seen over Zoom?"

Dr. Mercuro is licensed in both NH and MA, so if you're a resident of either state, telehealth visits are available after your initial in-person exam. She does require one in-person visit per year to keep your care on track.

Live in MA or NH and curious if telehealth fits your schedule? Reach out and we'll walk you through it. (603) 328-8101

September is Healthy Aging Month, and at Sparkle Health, aging well isn't about chasing youth. It's about giving your body what it needs to keep functioning the way it should. πŸ‚

Hormone shifts, nutrient absorption, thyroid function, they all change with age, and a lot of "normal aging" symptoms are actually signs your body needs a different kind of support. That's where root cause medicine comes in.

Curious what healthy aging actually looks like for your biology? Let's find out together.

As routines shift back toward fall, gut health often takes a hit: new schedules, more processed grab and go foods, less consistent meals. 🦠

A healthy gut microbiome depends heavily on fiber diversity and consistent meal timing, both of which are easy to lose in the September shuffle.

Let's get ahead of it. A few nutrition tweaks now can protect your gut through the fall transition.

FAQ Friday! πŸ”

"Do you accept insurance?"

No. Sparkle Health works directly for you, not an insurance company, which means more time per visit and a plan built around your actual biology rather than what's covered. Itemized receipts are available for anyone who wants to submit for reimbursement.

Questions about how this works for your budget? Let's talk through your options. (603) 328-8101

If you're on a GLP-1, appetite isn't the challenge anymore. Nutrient adequacy is. πŸ’ͺ

Reduced intake means every bite needs to work harder, especially for protein, which protects muscle mass while you lose fat. Skimping here is one of the most common reasons results don't hold up long term.

Want a protein and micronutrient plan built around your GLP-1 journey? That's exactly what our Functional Nutrition sessions are for. https://sparklehealthnh.com/nutrition-contact-us/

FAQ Friday! πŸ”

"What does the new patient process look like?"

Your first visit is with Dr. Mercuro for 60 minutes to map your full health history. From there, you will receive a referral for our in-house functional nutritionist, Kate Swords who will map your personalized nutrition plan.

Nutrition isn't an afterthought here, it's built into your very first steps with us. Curious what that first visit uncovers? We'd love to walk you through it. (603) 328-8101

Water alone doesn't always cut it in August heat. πŸ’§ When you're sweating more, you're losing electrolytes: sodium, potassium, magnesium, not just water.

Nutrition plays a direct role here. Foods like leafy greens, avocado, and coconut water can help replenish what plain water can't. Feeling foggy or fatigued in the heat? It might be more electrolytes, less caffeine.
