The Blog

My patients ask me the same questions in different ways. Why this magnesium and not that one. Whether their B12 is the right form. What I think about the latest protocol they saw circulating online.

These posts are what I'd tell you in a 15-minute follow-up if we had time for one. Sometimes a careful look at a single supplement. Sometimes a walkthrough of a lab marker, or me working through something I read in the literature.

Every health claim is sourced. When I'm giving you my clinical opinion instead of citing data, I'll say so. If a post raises a question about your own care, bring it to a visit.
