Live Life Well Clinic

📢We’ve all seen the campaigns and social media hype around diet and protocols…

🥩 “Eat Keto for Inflammation”

🌿” Follow the AIP Diet for Thyroid!”

🥕” Vegetarian is best for heart health!”

While there are studies that do point to some of these being helpful, we have to remember that studies are only a SNAPSHOT of the population. Study participants may or may not have your unique makeup.

We recognize we must look at each unique person in front of us and consider many factors when we’re addressing nutrition and your health situation.

We use the word “UNIQUE” a lot in our conversations here and with clients, it embodies our practice philosophy well.

While protocols provide a frame of reference, we will always adapt to the UNIQUE person in front of us.

To experience the Live Life Well Difference regarding nutrition, hormones, thyroid, blood sugar, diabetes, and weight loss, schedule your FREE Discovery Call today!

Happy National Dog Day from the Skelton pups!!

Texas and Bear help keep Dr. Skelton, Sarah, and the family MOVING and ACTIVE!

There has been plenty of research over the years pointing to dog ownership positively affecting human health outcomes!

A 2008 study published in the American Journal of Public Health examined the influence of dog ownership on physical activity, independent of demographic, intrapersonal, and perceived environmental factors, in a cross-sectional survey of 1813 adults. Although only 23% of the dog owners walked their dogs 5 or more times per week, the adjusted odds of achieving sufficient physical activity and walking were 57% to 77% higher among dog owners compared with those not owning dogs. Dog ownership was independently associated with physical activity and walking.

The same reason we don't push New Year resolutions!

We believe in making changes to positively benefit our health every month of the year.

When we work with clients, we come alongside them to help create sustainable nutrition habits, healthy sleep cycles, and stress-coping mechanisms all to benefit hormone, blood sugar, gut health, and inflammation levels - which is the root of chronic illness!

If you’re tired of being tired, done with battling hormone imbalances, PCOS, weight gain, diabetes, thyroid disease, or other chronic inflammatory conditions and you're ready to make some changes, schedule a Free Discovery Call today at the link in our comments.

We will never deny that pharmaceutical medications do have their place, but there is never a reason to prescribe Ozempic, Semaglutide, or similar medications for Type 2 Diabetes, PCOS, or Weight Loss.

Will our practice philosophies take a little longer to realize results? Yes.

Will our practice philosophies help create LASTING weight loss, hormone balances, and diabetes remission that result in TRUE HEALTH AND WELLNESS? Also yes!

Ozempic and similar medications do not address underlying gut health issues, thyroid problems, or lifestyle and sleep habits that caused the chronic problems in the first place. In fact, Ozempic can often make those issues worse.

When Ozempic prices go up or pharmacies experience shortages and you have to stop the medication, the underlying issues are still there, and the weight will often come back, hormones will go haywire and your A1C will rise again.

If you're ready to step away from the expensive, symptom-care-based model of sick care, schedule a Free Discovery Call with Dr. Skelton at the link in our comments!

We are available statewide in Texas for telehealth and can order labs at a location near you.

‘Eat honey, my son, for it is good; honey from the comb is sweet to your taste”
Proverbs 24:13

How do Joseph and Genesis 43 tie into the discussion about God's design for our blood sugar, nutrition, and overall health?

🥩Beef nutrition is such a profitable industry that Texas Tech has an entire degree program for ‘Ruminant Nutrition’!

But we have to wonder, is the focus on beef nutrition mainly for consideration of breeding, marbling, and animal resiliency for maximized profit?

Is human nutrition often considered LAST when feeding cattle?

We all love a good burger and ribeye, don’t miss our podcast drop tomorrow on how to purchase and consume beef to optimize nutrition and minimize inflammation!

Mainstream and allopathic medicine typically looks for and treats the most common probabilities when a patient presents with symptoms. Loss of medical curiosity and shorter appointment times prevents a deeper look into potential root causes.

If a patient presents with heartburn, the most common treatment is usually a Proton Pump Inhibitor (PPI) like Nexium, Prilosec or similar medications.

If a patient presents with anemia, the most common treatment is iron supplementation.

Rarely is there testing for a deeper infection or an evaluation of diet and lifestyle.
