Dr. K´s Immunity broth recipe coming your way! 👋
As we shift through the different seasons throughout the year, our bodies could benefit from additional support from the plant kingdom. 🪴
Let’s take a look at what I like to use to keep my patients and my family healthy this time of year.🍁
🍄 I like to add in a bit of support from the plant & fungi kingdoms. As Hippocrates said, “Let food be thy medicine and medicine by thy food.”
Adding in roots and mushrooms to our fall broths supports a healthy immune system.
Remember to save this post & screenshot to keep the recipe handy!
Stay tuned, this month we will share more of Dr. Koperski’s health boosting potions!

Dr. Martinez here! I speak about balancing blood sugar to almost every single one of my patients because if done well, it can have an amazing impact on almost all aspects of health, including better energy, moods, stamina, and sleep. Here is my recipe for a Blood Sugar Balancing Smoothie:
🥛 Unsweetened almond milk, coconut milk or water
🫐 ½ cup Frozen Blueberries
🍌 ½ Frozen banana
🥬 Handful of Frozen Kale or Spinach
🥥 1-2 TSP Coconut oil or MCT oil
🥄 One serving of protein powder (at least 20 grams)
Protein powders that I often recommend:
▪️Designs for Health PurePaleo Protein
▪️Sun Warrior Vanilla Protein Blend
Happy Birthday week to these three lovely ladies! Dr Starr, Alex and Jackie all celebrated their birthdays this week and we are so happy to have them as part of the Nourish Medical Center family!
Hey Nourish Community! When you think about the importance of managing blood sugar, you may think about conditions like diabetes, but in reality, everyone can benefit from balancing their blood sugar. Here are Dr. Martinez's guidelines for balancing blood sugar:
🚫 DON'T SKIP MEALS
✅ Eat breakfast within 1 hr of waking
✅ Include at least 20 grams of protein in each meal, making sure you are getting at least 80-100 grams per day! (ex: Legumes, Hummus, Organic Eggs, Organic Chicken, Grass Fed Beef, Wild Seafood, Nuts/Seeds, Protein powder)
✅ Include a healthy fat in each meal (ex: Avocado, Nuts/Nut butters, Seeds, Olive Oil, Coconut oil, Avocado oil)
✅ Include plenty of fiber in each meal (ex: non-starchy veggies, flax and chia seeds)
⚠️ Limit carbohydrates to nutrient-dense, low glycemic types (ex: sweet potato, squashes, quinoa, beans, lentils, organic corn tortillas, oats)- include no more than 1 cup in each meal
🚫 Avoid sugar and refined flour products (ex: added sugar, breads, pastas, crackers, pastries..)
🚫 Avoid inflammatory foods/trigger foods (ex: gluten, dairy, refined flour products, added sugar, alcohol, lectins in high quantities)

Hi everyone- Dr. Natasha Monterey here! I can't believe it but it is officially that time of year! Back to school! It can be a super exciting time of year for kids and families, but inevitably comes with a plethora of new germs! Getting sick (aka building that immune system!) is absolutely a normal part of childhood, and life! On average elementary students will get sick 8-12 times per year! But, it doesn't mean it is any fun. The good news there are things we can all do to set our kiddos (and selves!) up for success. There is a lot of info out there on immune support so I am going to get creative and give you some of my favorite recommendations that aren't quite as common, but can be sooooo helpful!
1. Rinse everyone's nose with saline after school- I know, some kiddos protest this big time, but you are literally rinsing away germs! Often if you let them do it themselves they will be more open to it. This can be so helpful in minimizing exposure.
2. Wash everyone's hands! I know what you are thinking, come on we already know this. But really! You need to wash for at LEAST 20 seconds! I guarantee that is longer than you think. Start singing that Birthday song...
3. Also, wash their faces! That's right, if you can right when the kiddos get home (and wash their hands!!) have them wash their faces as well. This can help decrease virus exposure as well!
4. When it gets dry this Fall/Winter- make sure to run a humidifier! When respiratory passages are moisturised (ie not dry and cracked) they let less germs in!
5. Herbs and supplements! Yes! Of course I love to give herbs and supplements. But *when* and *how much* is so critical. For many supplements you have to dose them early and often (ie every 1-2 hours) to have a big impact on illness! For more specifics with this please schedule an appointment to come in for a visit! It's too much for a social media post 🙂

We are so excited to share a #FREE DOWNLOAD with you this month!
Inside this download from our Detox & Liver Cleanse Program, you will learn a natural method for detoxifying your body using something we all have at home: coffee. When coffee enters your system through an enema, it is absorbed directly into the liver, where it helps remove free-radicals from the bloodstream. Free-radicals contribute to the cause of many chronic health conditions, as well as contribute to tissue and cellular damage.
Check the Nourish Programs link in our bio for more details on how to claim your free download. 👉@nourishmedicalcenter
September Is Thyroid Cancer Awareness Month!
Thyroid Cancer Awareness Month is a worldwide observance, sponsored and initiated by ThyCa: Thyroid Cancer Survivors’ Association. Thyroid Cancer Awareness Month promotes thyroid cancer awareness for early detection, as well as care based on expert standards, and increased research to achieve cures for all thyroid cancer.
If you notice a lump or fullness in the neck, lymph node swelling, difficulty breathing or swallowing, or voice changes, these may be signs of a possible thyroid nodule. Most thyroid nodules are benign, but some are cancer.
We encourage you to ask for a neck check when you visit your doctor. A neck check can be done quickly and easily!
Visit @thycainc for more information and for ways you can raise awareness about thyroid cancer this month.

Are you struggling with acne or want a simple end-of-the summer cleanse? Dr. Dang is offering 50% off a 14-Day Detox Cleanse when scheduling a new or established patient consult with her in the next 30 days.
Concerned how to support yourself during a cleanse? Dr Dang can help you feel prepared so you can have a SUCCESSFUL cleanse without all the potential side effects or overwhelm when trying to do it all on your own. (VERY IMPORTANT)
Doing a cleanse is especially helpful for those struggling with skin concerns when the cause is hormone or gut related. Hormones are processed and eliminated in the liver. So, if we are unable to break down our hormones effectively in the liver, we have a buildup of hormones in our bodies. In addition, if our gut is not properly digesting food and absorbing the nutrients we need, we can have acute or chronic acne and skin problems.
This offer is valid for the first five patients that mention this post when scheduling. This 14-Day Detox normally retails for $194 so that’s a SAVINGS of $97!
Give us a call to schedule with Dr Dang today! #dangdetox
Your adrenal glands are powerhouses that are involved in several critical body functions designed to help the body evade dangerous situations. The body is very good at responding to immediate danger, but it is not very good at telling the difference between a predator that is hunting you and an upsetting work email. This means that modern stress and the lack of good coping skills can chronically activate your adrenals, wearing them out over time.
This leads to a condition called adrenal dysfunction, an imbalance of the adrenals that is considered a dysfunction rather than a disease. There are several adrenal diseases in which the glands have significantly high or low output of hormones. Adrenal dysfunction, on the other hand, is when the adrenal glands are performing, just not at optimal levels or not in an optimal rhythm throughout the day. Adrenal dysfunction happens when chronic stress disrupts the natural function and rhythm of your adrenal glands.
