Yesterday we heard from Dr. Teresa Esterle - and be sure to check out her latest reel on our profile if you missed it! Dr. Teresa helps countless patients recover from gastrointestinal concerns and symptoms, and our Fundamental Microbiome Balance Capsules are a great tool!

This supplement does so many different things:
• Provides concentrated immunoglobulins to enhance mucosal immunity
• Helps maintain microbial balance
• Supports GI barrier health and integrity
• Helps maintain normal inflammatory balance

Fundamental Microbiome Balance has been shown to bind microbes and toxins, further enhancing Microbiome balance and facilitating gut barrier strength.

In studies evaluating its effect on immune function, subjects showed positive outcomes in several areas, including inflammatory balance, gut barrier function, and immune cell counts.

With the start of July brings about a whole new slew of in-season fruits and veggies! …and arguably some of the best!

Check out our list of in-season produce to prioritize this month, and stay tuned to learn more about why it’s so important to buy in-season fruits and veggies. Here are just a few reasons:

In-season produce is usually fresher and has a richer flavor - it is also more likely to be at the peak of its nutritional value.

It is less likely to be modified, and less likely to have been transported long distances, stored for long periods or time, or artificially ripened.

In-season produce tends to be more affordable since it doesn’t require special growing conditions or importing.

As always, we recommend trying to purchase local and organically grown when you are able to. Regardless of whether you are buying organic or conventional produce, it’s also very important to wash it well!

There are so many local farms and resources here in Cincinnati to support this season and all year long. We were fortunate enough to visit recently and to check out their farm store! Head over to Green Acres Farm if you are in the area, and consider supporting our other countless community farms, gardens, and CSAs.

Want help with your nutrition plan or eating habits? Looking for ideas? Find that eating fruits and veggies actually makes you feel worse? Reach out to us - our Registered Dietitians can help 🙂 aimforwellbeing.org

When asked about our favorite multivitamin, THIS IS IT 🔥

Our Fundamental Multivitamin and Antioxidant supplement is a wonderful layer of support for the body for a variety of reasons:

⚡️ It recharges cellular energy production
😷 It supports immune function
🌱 It increases antioxidant protection
💧 It supports detoxification capacity
🍏 It provides key micronutrients to optimize daily nutritional intake

Patients who take this supplement have reported things like having more energy, less brain fog, and getting sick less often during cold and flu season - we LOVE to hear things like this, but we definitely aren’t surprised! This is our favorite multivitamin and one of our favorite supplements for good reason.

Blood sugar control is important for everyone - not just those with diagnosed concerns such as diabetes and pre-diabetes.

We want to make sure that our blood sugar stays within a healthy range throughout the day. While it’s normal for blood sugar to rise and lower, for example after we have eaten, we still want to ensure that the degree to which our blood sugar fluctuates is not sending us into a storm of dysregulation and inflammation.

Here at AIM, we believe in preventing issues before they become true concerns! It is much easier to work on prevention than it is to work on reversing a diagnosed condition such as type 2 diabetes.

Incase you missed it, be sure to check out yesterday’s reel from Dr. Katie all about spore-based probiotics and why they’re superior!

Here at AIM, we consider ourselves experts when it comes to the gut 🤓

Our gut is connected to nearly every process within the body - when we’re treating you here, we are always taking your gut health into consideration and encouraging nourishing your gut as part of our approach.

That approach looks a bit different for every patient who walks through our doors!

One part of this approach often involves probiotics - and the type of probiotic we recommend depends on the status of your gut. We love our Fundamental Spore-Based Probiotic+ and the efficacy that this supplement boasts!

The unique blend of probiotic strains combined with immunoglobulins has the power to transform the health and integrity of the gastrointestinal tract.

Curious about whether taking a probiotic is right for you? Visit us online at aimforwellbeing.org to learn more and to shop our line of supplements 🌱

Endometriosis is a painful chronic inflammatory disorder impacting 10-15% of women of reproductive age.

Endometrial lesions are major drivers of inflammation, leading to disruption of hormone regulation and immune function. In patients with endometriosis, the levels of SPMs in their endometrial tissues are reduced.

Given the link between endometriosis and chronic unresolved inflammation, assessing the impact of SPMs and pro-resolving therapies is a promising area of research.

We treat many patients with endometriosis here at our office daily, and we believe that taking an integrative approach to treatment is crucial.

Have questions for us? Visit aimforwellbeing.org to learn more or to schedule your free introductory call.

Part of our comprehensive approach to pain involves not only hands-on therapies, but also nutrition and lifestyle support as well as personalized, medical-grade supplement recommendations. ​​​​​​​​​

Fundamental Resolvins are designed to help support the body’s natural capacity to respond to physical challenges and resolve the immune response.

Our Fundamental Resolvins supplement is often used in combination with other therapies here at AIM to ensure that we are helping you to find relief and to heal effectively.

This allergy season has been hard on many of our patients. Luckily, we are here to help provide relief! Check out these patient testimonials 🙂

Not a seasonal allergy sufferer? You may be surprised to learn that AAT treatment is used for much more than just seasonal symptoms!

1️⃣ While some digestive symptoms can be attributed to food allergies, many people are actually experiencing food intolerances. Intolerances are not impacted by the immune system. By stimulating key treatment points, AAT can help to provide relief for allergies and intolerances without the need for medications.

2️⃣ AAT works to alleviate respiratory issues triggered by allergens such as pollen, dust, and more, by addressing the organ systems responsible for respiratory reactions so that you can breathe easy!

3️⃣ Allergic reactions can sometimes lead to headaches and even migraines in those they affect. AAT can help by changing how the body responds to certain allergens, which can minimize discomfort from headaches.

4️⃣ Skin reactions are often caused by irritants such as certain foods, plants, or chemicals, which is where AAT comes in. By targeting reactive organ systems, AAT can help to improve skin health and minimize reactions to allergens.

5️⃣ By reducing your body’s exertion in responding to allergens, you can conserve energy and feel better throughout the day!

We love our collagen! Earlier this week we shared a video for National Matcha Day - collagen is one of our favorite things to add to a matcha drink or smoothie for so many amazing reasons:

• Supports Joint Lubrication, Joint Cushioning, and Normal Connective Tissue Inflammatory Response

A unique combination of Acupuncture, Chiropractic, and Energy Healing, ACE Healing Treatment is our most popular and highly regarded wellness offering.

The ACE Healing Treatment can provide outstanding relief for many ailments by helping restore your overall health and sense of balanced well-being. Having an ACE Healing Treatment regularly is an excellent way to maintain your health and only takes 60-90 minutes.

Most importantly, an ACE Healing Treatment puts you firmly on the path of getting well, being well, and staying well.

The benefit of the ACE Healing Treatment has been featured as a medical breakthrough on several ABC News stations, and national studies show the healing benefit of combining the ACE therapies in one treatment session outweighs that of each of its components as stand-alone treatments.

Incase you missed it, be sure to check out our last video from Dr. Teresa talking all about why she loves L-theanine - and how helpful it can be for those struggling with attention issues.

L-theanine is a naturally occurring, unique amino acid found in tea leaves. L-theanine has been shown to reduce stress and promote relaxation without causing drowsiness. It alleviates nervousness due to overwork and decreases irritability by contributing to a variety of changes in the brain. Human studies suggest it is also helpful in improving focus, attention and mental clarity while reducing the negative side effects of caffeine.

Here are some of the incredible benefits of taking our Fundamental L-Theanine supplement:

😌 Promotes Relaxation Without Causing Drowsiness
🧠 Improves Focus, Attention, Learning Performance and Mental Clarity
💤 Improves Quality of Sleep
🩸 May Support Blood Pressure Already Within the Normal Range
☕️ Reduces Negative Side Effects of Caffeine

It’s that time of year!

Spring is allergy season, and especially here in the Ohio River Valley, it’s not uncommon for the change in seasons to bring a slew of allergy symptoms along with it.

Here at AIM, we are all about working on the root cause of your symptoms, and helping you to find more natural approaches to treatment first. This is the beauty of integrative medicine.

We’ve talked about the impact that the gut can have on the allergic response (see our older posts,) but did you know that certain foods may actually help to alleviate some of your pesky symptoms?

Stress isn’t all bad! It’s when the body is continuously exposed to stress or continuously experiencing the stress response that we can run into trouble.

The initial, short lived phase of the stress response is the body’s normal fight or flight response to danger - this phase is characterized by elevated cortisol levels.

While this fight or flight response is meant to be short lived, for many people, it becomes chronic. The body continues to bear the consequences of extended stress exposure, as cortisol remains elevated.

Extended periods of stress not only burden the system, creating an imbalance in cortisol and DHEA production, but can result in a multitude of symptoms.

Most magnesium supplements use only a single source of magnesium, which can easily overwhelm a single pathway of absorption and limit uptake.

Our Fundamental Magnesium provides three unique forms of highly-absorbed magnesium to ensure maximum absorption of this important macromineral.

Fundamental Magnesium takes advantage of three unique pathways of absorption by providing magnesium as di-magnesium malate, magnesium citrate and magnesium glycinate for enhanced absorption, improved utilization and gastrointestinal (GI) comfort.

Some individuals, who take other forms of magnesium supplements, often experience GI side effects, including gas, bloating, diarrhea, constipation or a combination of these symptoms. The forms of magnesium used in Fundamental Magnesium preserve GI comfort while maximizing absorption and restoring magnesium levels in the body.

Here at AIM, we know that in order to assess heart health and risk, we must dive far beyond a standard cholesterol panel. Check out our traffic analogy for a better understanding of what we’re looking for!

Some of the factors that can affect both rush hour traffic and our cardiovascular health are:

❤️ Number of commuters needing to be moved, i.e. LDL, HDL, TG. Although cholesterol is usually spoken about in a negative way, it is actually one of the ways our body transports energy around our body. In and of itself, it’s not bad – until you start to have more passengers than the road was intended to carry.

❤️ Size of the commuters (particle density). The less dense your commuter, they easier they are to move. The denser they become, the larger the vehicle (apolipoproteins) you’ll need to carry them around, and the more damage they can do to your roads.

❤️ Size of the road (inflammation makers such hsCRP [high sensitivity C-reactive Protein] and fibrinogen). Inflammation within our cardiovascular system can be caused by many things, including sugar, food sensitivities, and elevated levels of arachidonic acid, which is found in animal-based proteins. Inflammation within our vessels causes our two-lane highway to reduce to a one-lane road, which can increase the incidence of accidents.

❤️ Tendency towards accidents (blood sugar makers, such as a fasting glucose, HbA1c, and TG). Sugar is sticky, right? Think about honey or syrup. If your blood has too much glucose (sugar) in it, when your vehicles bump into one another, they can stick together. Depending on how sticky your blood is will determine if you have a minor fender bender or if there is a 100-car pile up.
