If you’re like me and love hiking or spending time in the woods, chances are you’ve had a tick on you before.

These tiny creatures can sometimes cause big problems. One lesser-known condition is alpha-gal syndrome (AGS) — a tick bite-related allergy that can trigger delayed reactions to mammalian meat and other mammalian-derived products hours after eating.

As tick season picks up:
✔️ Check for ticks after being outdoors
✔️ Wear protective clothing
✔️ Remove ticks promptly

Stay safe and enjoy the warmer weather!

Are annual physical exams really necessary?

Research suggests that for many healthy adults, routine annual physicals may provide limited benefit and can sometimes lead to unnecessary testing and overdiagnosis.

True prevention often comes down to the foundations of health:
🥗 nutrition
🏃 physical activity
😴 sleep
🧠 stress management
💚 metabolic and mental well-being

In my newest article, I explore what the evidence actually says about annual physical exams — and what truly supports long-term health.

Dairy products are often marketed as essential for health — but what does the research actually show?

In my newest article, I explore some of the potential health concerns linked to dairy consumption, including inflammation, acne, cardiovascular disease, lactose intolerance, and more — along with practical plant-based alternatives that can help support overall health.

I also share part of my own journey with autoimmune disease and how dietary changes transformed my health and ultimately led me to become a certified health educator.

New research continues to strengthen the connection between gut health and autoimmune disease.

A 2025 systematic review and meta-analysis found that people with autoimmune conditions commonly have:
• gut dysbiosis (imbalanced gut bacteria)
• increased intestinal permeability (“leaky gut”)
• and immune dysregulation

The review also found that gut-supportive strategies — including fiber-rich plant foods, prebiotics, probiotics, and anti-inflammatory dietary patterns — may help support immune balance and reduce inflammation in some individuals.

Some of the foods most consistently associated with a healthier microbiome included:
🥦 Vegetables
🫘 Legumes
🍎 Fruits
🌾 Whole grains
🌰 Nuts & seeds

While more research is still needed, the evidence continues to support the important role that diet and gut health may play in immune function. 💚

Sorghum and teff for breakfast? Absolutely. Paired with fresh fruit, ground flaxseed, and a sprinkle of cinnamon, this meal is naturally rich in fiber and completely gluten-free.

Fiber plays a central role in supporting a healthy gut microbiome—and what benefits our gut bacteria ultimately benefits our overall health.
