Struggling with insulin resistance and weight management? Worried about high glucose or hemoglobin A1C levels increasing your diabetes risk?

D-chiro inositol, derived from myo-inositol found in fruits, grains, and nuts, can help. When combined with healthy eating and regular exercise, it can improve insulin sensitivity and blood glucose levels. This reduces your risk of developing diabetes and boosts your overall health.

A favorite dessert in the Jewell-Larsen household. This pudding is easy to make, delicious, high in protein and a great way to increase your omega 3 and fiber intake.

Salt to taste
½ tsp vanilla extract

The symptoms of menopause can be difficult to manage. Patients ask us all the time is whether they should consider hormone replacement therapy. The answer is complex - it is a strong and effective tool for many women, but it’s important to discuss with a knowledgeable provider about the benefits and risks of using these medications. It’s equally important to discuss other tools so you can approach menopause holistically! A comprehensive plan should include adjustments to nutrition, appropriate exercise, stress management, lifestyle choices, and natural treatment options in addition to considering whether hormone replacement therapy is right for you. ,

Menopause often comes with an overwhelming number of changes. As always, we approach this phase of life holistically as naturopathic doctors. You should adjust nutrition, exercise, lifestyle choices, natural treatment options and consider whether hormone replacement therapy is right for you.

Food is medicine, food is everything!

I have a confession to make - I absolutely love indulging in sugar cookies from time to time. However, it’s surprisingly difficult to find a gluten and dairy-free version that meets my expectations. Luckily, last year I discovered a recipe that uses freeze-dried strawberries to enhance both the color and flavor of the frosting. What a revolutionary idea! With a few adjustments and substitutions, we now have an incredibly delicious go-to sugar cookie recipe.

We don’t make these cookies often, mainly because they disappear incredibly quickly between me and our two kids. However, on Valentine’s Day, I can’t resist bringing out this recipe. Trust me, they are absolutely divine!

-Dr. Jen Jewell-Larsen, ND. Full recipe in bio!
