My take on GLP-1 Agonists - Part I
GLP-1 agonists, a type of medication that mimics a natural hormone in our body, have been gaining significant attention lately.
You may recognize their brand names: Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, or Zepbound. While these specific peptide medications have been available for about a decade, they've recently surged in popularity as a promising tool for weight loss.
What the MTHFR?!
MTHFR stands for methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase, an enzyme crucial for processing amino acids, which are the building blocks of proteins. This genetic mutation can be present in one variant (heterozygous) or two variants (homozygous), with the homozygous form potentially increasing the risk of various health issues.
IV & IM Mitochondrial Support
Mitochondrial dysfunction refers to problems with the normal activity of the mitochondria, the cell’s energy-producing structures. When mitochondria aren’t working properly, they can’t produce enough energy for the cell, which can lead to a variety of symptoms and health conditions.
Core Restore: My 7 Day Journey
So, Lyndsey says, let’s do Core Restore as a group! And I’m like, well, I am fully capable of being unfaithful to myself (LOL) but I could NEVER with a group of people. I have no choice but to be accountable.
Alternatives to current weight loss pharmaceuticals
It is no doubt that you have heard of semaglutide (Ozempic/Wegovy) and perhaps read many of the articles, social media posts, and even seen the recent documentary. While we champion medical freedoms here at Soleil and believe every medical choice should be an individual one, we thought we would take some time to talk about more natural weight loss options that could be good for you!
Plastics: Why to avoid them and how to detoxify from them
I feel like this is a topic we all know we should be talking about, but it doesn’t really come up that often. Maybe it’s something you think about, maybe it’s something you are worried about. Wondering, what are the consequences? Plastic. It is LITERALLY everywhere. We cannot escape it. But we can start talking about it, being mindful of it, and maybe start taking some steps to detoxify from it.
