Are Your Genes a Death Sentence?

Are Your Genes a Death Sentence

If your parents or grandparents struggled with an autoimmune disease, diabetes, or other chronic health conditions, you might have been told, “It runs in the family—you’ll probably get it too.” But what if that wasn’t entirely true?     Thanks to the science of epigenetics, we now know that your genes are not your destiny. Just because a condition is common in your family doesn’t mean you’re doomed to develop it. In fact, your lifestyle choices, diet, stress levels, and environment play a far bigger role in determining your health than your DNA alone.     Let’s dive into how epigenetics works and how functional medicine—especially the $99 Root Cause Reset—can help you take control of your future rather than letting your genes dictate it.     What is Epigenetics?  Epigenetics is the study of how external factors influence gene expression—essentially, how your daily habits and environment can turn genes “on” or “off.”     Think of your genes as a light switch. Just because you have a genetic predisposition for an autoimmune disease doesn’t mean that switch has to be turned on. Factors like nutrition, stress, toxins, sleep, and gut health can determine whether that gene stays inactive or becomes a problem.     This explains why two people in the same family can have the same genetic predisposition but vastly different health outcomes—one might develop an autoimmune condition while the other remains symptom-free.     You Have More Control Than You Think Research shows that only 5-10% of diseases are directly caused by genetics, while 90-95% are influenced by lifestyle and environment. That means you have far more power over your health than you may have been led to believe!     Here are some key lifestyle factors that influence whether or not you develop an autoimmune disease and how functional medicine can help you take control of them:     1. Gut Health: The Foundation of Your Immune System  Your gut houses 70% of your immune system, and poor gut health can trigger inflammation and autoimmunity. Processed foods, antibiotics, and chronic stress damage your gut lining, allowing harmful substances to leak into your bloodstream (a condition known as “leaky gut”).     ✔️How Functional Medicine Helps: Functional medicine focuses on healing the gut by identifying food sensitivities, testing for leaky gut markers, and recommending personalized nutrition plans that reduce inflammation and rebuild gut integrity. Probiotics, digestive enzymes, and microbiome testing are often used to restore balance and strengthen immune function.     2. Chronic Stress: The Silent Autoimmune Trigger   Long-term stress releases high levels of cortisol, which can disrupt immune function and trigger autoimmune responses. If you’re constantly in fight-or-flight mode, your body is more likely to turn on those unwanted genetic switches.     ✔️How Functional Medicine Helps: Through comprehensive hormone testing, functional medicine can assess cortisol levels, adrenal function, and nervous system balance. Personalized stress-reduction techniques—such as adaptogenic herbs, breathwork, and mindfulness practices—can be recommended to keep your immune system in check.     3. Toxin Exposure: The Hidden Factor Behind Autoimmunity  Pesticides, heavy metals, air pollution, and even household cleaning products can disrupt your immune system. Over time, toxin buildup contributes to inflammation, which can activate genes linked to chronic illness.     ✔️How Functional Medicine Helps: A functional medicine approach includes detoxification protocols, heavy metal testing, and liver support strategies. By identifying and eliminating toxic exposures, functional medicine helps your body function more efficiently and reduces inflammation that could trigger autoimmune responses.     4. Sleep & Circadian Rhythm: The Repair Process Your Body Needs Your body repairs and detoxifies itself during sleep. Poor sleep quality or an irregular sleep schedule increases inflammation and immune dysregulation, making you more susceptible to autoimmunity.     ✔️How Functional Medicine Helps: By analyzing hormone imbalances, melatonin production, and sleep quality, functional medicine can create a plan to optimize your circadian rhythm. Lifestyle changes, sleep-supporting supplements, and evening routines can significantly improve sleep quality and support immune health.     Check out our blog- The Vital Role of Sleep On Your Body   5. Diet & Nutrient Deficiencies: The Building Blocks of Your Health  A diet high in sugar, processed foods, and inflammatory oils feeds disease, while nutrient-dense foods help keep harmful genes switched off. Deficiencies in vitamin D, magnesium, and omega-3 fatty acids can increase your risk of autoimmune conditions.     ✔️How Functional Medicine Helps: Functional medicine uses comprehensive bloodwork and micronutrient testing to identify specific deficiencies and provide tailored dietary and supplement recommendations. This ensures your body gets the nutrients it needs to support immune function and prevent chronic illness.     How Functional Medicine Helps You Rewrite Your Health Story   Traditional medicine often waits until symptoms appear before taking action. But functional medicine takes a proactive approach, focusing on identifying and addressing root causes before disease develops.     By analyzing your bloodwork, hormone levels, gut health, and toxin exposure, a functional medicine practitioner can see early indicators of autoimmunity and other chronic conditions—even if you feel fine right now.     Solaris Whole Health and the $99 Root Cause Reset: Your First Step to Taking Control  If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re at risk for an autoimmune disease or another chronic condition, Solaris Whole Health and our $99 Root Cause Reset is the perfect starting point.   Here’s what it includes:   Personalized Bloodwork Analysis –  We take a deep dive into your past and current blood tests (as far back as 3 to 5 years) to identify hidden markers of inflammation, hormonal imbalances, nutrient deficiencies, and potential autoimmune triggers.     Comprehensive Health Assessment –  We evaluate your lifestyle, symptoms, diet, sleep habits and stress levels to see what’s affecting your health.     Take our FREE Stress & Sleep Quiz.    Clear, Actionable Plan –  Instead of generic advice, you’ll receive a roadmap tailored to your specific needs, so you can start making changes that actually move the needle.     A Step Toward Prevention –  Even if you don’t have symptoms yet, we can help you stay ahead of potential health issues before they become a problem.   Success Story: A Real-Life Example of

The Solaris 4 Pillars of Health: Pulls it All together 

At Solaris Whole Health, our Transformation Programs are designed to help you find balance within the 4 Pillars of Health while addressing the 4 Pillars of Stress.  The 4 Pillars of Health  We need all 4 pillars of health to cultivate joy and the improved quality of life. They include:  Spirituality and Nature: Connecting with something larger than yourself; outside of yourself to find inner peace and connect with your purpose in life.  Career and Finance: Finding fulfillment and balance in your professional and financial life. Physical Health: Maintaining a biochemically balanced and healthy body through the principles of functional medicine, nutrition, exercise, and self-care. Relationships and Mental Health: Cultivating emotional well-being, and a healthy connection with yourself and those around you The 4 Pillars of Stress: Understanding What Is Biochemically Out Of Balance Understanding past history or epigenetics, as well as genetic history and how these have both played into your current state of being is essential. I break out these stressors into 4 categories: Physical Stress:  Understanding past history and the root cause of your current sleep patterns, digestive issues, immune responses, allergies, infections, hormones, and your overall physical health. Mental/Emotional Stress: Understanding your past history and current biochemical imbalances and habits that contribute to your emotional health and well being. Chemical Stress:  Food is a chemical, as well as alcohol, recreational drugs, medication etc. Understanding the history and current consumptions and the biochemical effect on the body is key. Environmental Stress:  Electronics, social media, computer time, mold, high tension wires, even a cluttered house can all contribute to how our environment can affect our quality of life.  Identifying imbalances in each category and creating a plan to minimize them is essential to improving one’s quality of life and joy.  Think of your life as a structure supported by the 4 Pillars of Health. If one pillar weakens or breaks, the entire structure becomes unstable, and the other pillars can’t fully support it.  The Transformation Cycle: The Interplay of Each Pillar  How we nourish our lives is directly related to how we choose to nourish our bodies.  Let’s say there is a ‘relationship gone bad’; throwing one of the 4 pillars of health (relationships) out of balance. We may choose to have ice cream or chocolate triggering the chemical pillar of stress.  We’ve all been there.  Perhaps there’s a deadline crunch impacting your career, and you choose to zone out at night with video games, online betting, the Hallmark Channel, or by having more wine or beer than you intended. The interplay of lifes 4 Pillars of Health and The 4 Pillars of Stress is undeniable. The chronic nature of imbalance and compensation can create a vicious cycle where each exacerbates the other. This makes it increasingly difficult to manage stress and maintain a sense of balance. The 4 Pillars of Stress—physical, mental/emotional, chemical, and environmental—are integral to maintaining the 4 Pillars of Health. By effectively managing these stressors you ensure that each health pillar remains strong and balanced, creating a solid foundation for a healthy, fulfilling life.  When you feel better (more energy, less heartburn, better sleep, less cravings etc) you can choose better when life’s stressors come your way.  3 Steps Recap: Practical Steps to Happiness  Reconnecting with your true self and taking the time to do so during the week is a great start to reduce stress, improve your relationships, enhance your job performance, and boost your overall health- ultimately helping you lead a more fulfilling and authentic life.  This is something you can start TODAY!  To recap: Reflect on Your Childhood: Think about what you loved to do and how it made you feel. Identify Activities: Choose activities that bring back those feelings of joy, freedom, and adventure. Make Time for Yourself: Dedicate time each day or week to engage in these activities, even if it’s just for a short while. Notice the Changes: Pay attention to how reconnecting with your inner child affects your stress levels and overall health. How Solaris Whole Health Can Help If you are able to start ‘The 3 steps to happiness’, however, are unable to maintain the process long term, please know this is not your fault. There may be a chronic pillar of health imbalance supported by a root cause stress imbalance (4 pillars of stress) that is the driving force. It has nothing to do with your motivation or willpower.  Our Solaris Transformation Programs offer personalized testing, programs, guidance and support to help you reconnect with your true self and integrate those insights into your daily life. By focusing on the 4 Pillars of Health and addressing the 4 Pillars of Stress, we aim to support your journey towards a balanced, healthy, and fulfilling life. Have questions?

Want more Joy in your life? 3 Steps To Happiness You Can Do TODAY!

In the hustle and bustle of adult life, it’s easy to forget the carefree joy of our childhoods. The responsibilities of work, family, and everyday stress can cloud our sense of self. At Solaris Whole Health, we believe that reconnecting with the things that brought you joy as a child is essential for achieving holistic well-being. By remembering who you were as a child and rediscovering your passions, you can find inner peace and a renewed sense of purpose.   Step 1: The Importance of Childhood Passions Take a moment to reflect on your childhood. What did you love to do? Maybe you enjoyed skateboarding, exploring the woods, journaling, or drawing for hours on end. These activities were more than just fun—they were expressions of your true self. They brought feelings of adventure, creativity, and freedom.   Remembering these childhood activities can evoke powerful emotions. For example, if exploring the woods made you feel adventurous and free, returning to nature can help you reconnect with those feelings. These activities are not just hobbies; they are pathways to your core identity and sources of inner peace.   Brainstorm a list of these activites on a napkin, on your phone, anywhere, and remember the joy and freedom you once felt.    Step 2: Create a Playdate with yourself As we grow older, the demands of life can make it hard to find time for ourselves. Jobs, family obligations, and social commitments often take precedence. We might even feel guilty about taking time for ourselves, thinking it’s selfish or unproductive. However, neglecting that part of ourselves that brings us joy can lead to increased stress, strained relationships, and a decline in both physical and mental health.    When we don’t prioritize our well-being, everything else in our lives can suffer.   Plan time during the upcoming week to do something you loved doing as a child; hide a yo-yo in your desk and bring out on the daily, or skateboard after work, sit outside and draw, sit by a stream, sign up for a tennis lesson, shoot some hoops. Anything your heart desires, or rather what the inner child in you desires.    Step 3: Just show up We’ve all done it: we make a plan, set aside time, and then fail to follow through because our to-do list is overwhelming, something seemingly more important demands our attention, or we’re simply too exhausted.    We are the best at not keeping dates with ourselves in lieu of ‘getting more done’ or just vegging out.    The hardest part is showing up. I tell my clients – just show up. That’s it! When you’ve done that you’ve won. You can leave. REALLY, don’t sweat it. Leave. You can do that for the first 1-2 weeks and eventually you may stay and follow through.    For example, for the first couple weeks, with no expectations or judgment, just get changed into your workout clothes. Go to the park and stay parked. Get the skateboard or basketball out in the garage. That’s it- that’s all I want you to do.    Put on the yoga video and turn it right back off. You’re good! Just show up for your personal playdate at the time you promised. That’s your only goal.  Let the rest take its course.  Falling off the Wagon Don’t fret. You will, and there’s a reason why, and a system to get you back on track!    The Impact of Stress on  Your Health: Facts  Stress affects a significant portion of the workforce. According to studies, 83% of U.S. workers suffer from work-related stress, with 25% saying their job is their number one stressor​ (The American Institute of Stress)​. Furthermore, 94% of workers report feeling stress at work, indicating that stress is a widespread issue across various industries​ (Cross River Therapy)​. This stress can manifest in various forms- from burnout, to physical and mental health issues. Physically, chronic stress can manifest in a variety of symptoms such as headaches, muscle tension, chest pain, fatigue, and a weakened immune system, making you more susceptible to illnesses. Over time, these symptoms can worsen, leading to more serious health issues like hypertension, heart disease, and digestive problems. In some surveys, nearly three in five employees reported negative impacts of work-related stress, leading to lack of interest, motivation, or energy at work​ (The American Institute of Stress)​.  Stress can also affect relationships with family, friends, or coworkers, with 73% of workers reporting that workplace stress impacts their personal relationships​ (Cross River Therapy)​. Stress levels can increase as people age as well, due to various factors such as work, home responsibilities, and relationships. Studies suggest that stressors related to work, like job demands, deadlines, and work culture, can increase with age leading to burnout and reduced professional efficacy.  Other stressors include job insecurity, lack of support, and workload​ (The American Institute of Stress)​. Home stress can also increase with age, often due to growing family responsibilities and home-work conflict. This is especially true in remote work settings where work-life boundaries can become blurred​ (MDPI)​. Relationships can add to stress as individuals balance personal and professional commitments. As people age, they may also experience stress due to evolving family dynamics, caregiving responsibilities, or personal relationships​ (PLOS)​. These factors can combine to create a cumulative stress effect, impacting physical and mental well-being. The pressures of modern life can cause chronic stress, affecting your mood, energy levels, and overall well-being. Understanding the sources of stress and adopting effective stress management strategies can help mitigate the negative impacts​ (World Health Organization (WHO))​. “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.”   Reconnecting with your true self and taking the time to do so during the week will reduce stress, improve your relationships, enhance your job performance, and boost your overall health- ultimately helping you lead a more fulfilling and authentic life

Rethinking Multivitamins: Are You – Wasting Your Money?

rethinking Multivitamins

Walk into any pharmacy or grocery store, and you’ll find shelves lined with multivitamins promising everything from improved immunity to better energy levels. For decades, we’ve been told that taking a daily multivitamin is essential for good health. But what if most of these products are doing little to nothing for your well-being? Dr. Mark Hyman, a leading expert in functional medicine, has raised an important discussion in his podcast “The Doctor’s Farmacy,” about why most multivitamins are a waste of money. The reality is that while supplementation is crucial, not all supplements are created equal—and taking a one-size-fits-all approach to nutrition may be doing you more harm than good. At Solaris Whole Health, we focus on personalized supplementation, ensuring that your body gets exactly what it needs—not just a generic mix of vitamins and minerals. Let’s explore why most multivitamins fall short and what you can do instead to truly support your health. The Problem with Most Multivitamins 1. Low-Quality Ingredients & Poor Absorption Many mass-produced multivitamins contain cheap, synthetic ingredients that your body struggles to absorb. For example: Vitamin B12 is often in the form of cyanocobalamin, which must be converted into its active form (methylcobalamin) before your body can use it. Magnesium is commonly found in magnesium oxide, a form with low bioavailability that doesn’t effectively support cellular function. If your body can’t properly absorb the nutrients in your multivitamin, they end up being excreted— meaning you’re literally flushing your money down the drain. 2. Generic Formulations Don’t Address Individual Needs Every person has unique nutritional requirements based on genetics, lifestyle, diet, and existing health conditions. A one-size-fits-all multivitamin won’t address specific deficiencies or imbalances. For example, some people may need higher levels of vitamin D due to low sun exposure, while others might require extra B vitamins to support energy metabolism. Without proper testing, you could be taking the wrong combination of nutrients—or missing the ones you truly need. 3. Lack of Synergy Between Nutrients Nutrients work together in the body, and balance is key. Many multivitamins don’t consider how vitamins and minerals interact. For instance: Calcium and magnesium should be taken in proper ratios to avoid muscle cramps and imbalances. Iron competes with zinc for absorption, which can lead to deficiencies when not properly balanced. Poorly formulated multivitamins can create imbalances that may lead to long-term health issues instead of benefits. 4. Hidden Fillers and Additives Many multivitamins contain unnecessary fillers, artificial colors, and preservatives that can be harmful over time. Ingredients like titanium dioxide (used for coloring) and hydrogenated oils have no place in a product meant to support health. Why Personalized Supplementation Is the Answer Instead of relying on generic multivitamins, a personalized approach to supplementation ensures you get the nutrients your body actually needs. At Solaris Whole Health, we take a functional medicine approach to wellness, which means we: Assess your individual nutrient levels through advanced testing. Create customized supplement plans tailored to your body’s needs. Use only high-quality, bioavailable nutrients for optimal absorption.

The Diet Trends You Should Skip This January – And What to Do Instead

Diet Trends You Should Skip

It’s January, and you know what that means—everywhere you turn, someone’s raving about the next big diet. From juice cleanses to keto to fasting apps, it seems like everyone’s got a “foolproof” way to lose weight fast.   But here’s the truth: by mid-February, most of these diets have fizzled out, leaving you feeling defeated. Then before you know it, you’ve given up on your new year’s weight loss resolution.   The problem isn’t you. It’s the diets. They’re designed to fail because they only address the surface, not the underlying issues holding you back. Let’s talk about why that happens and what you can do to break the cycle for good.   The Biggest Yo-Yo Diet Trends Juice Cleanses Who doesn’t want a “reset” after the holidays? While you might lose water weight, juice cleanses lack the nutrients your body needs for energy and sustainable weight loss.   Keto or Low-Carb Diets Cutting carbs works—for a while. But it’s hard to stick to, and without the right balance, it can leave you exhausted, cranky, and craving carbs even more.   Intermittent Fasting While fasting can work for some, it can also wreak havoc on hormones, especially for women. Plus, skipping meals can lead to binge eating, which is counterproductive.   Extreme Calorie Cutting Sure, you’ll drop pounds quickly—but at the cost of your metabolism and overall health. And when you start eating normally again? The weight piles back on. Why Diets Fail After a Few Weeks Most diets fail because they ignore the bigger picture—your body’s unique puzzle.   Stress and Cortisol: Stress raises cortisol levels, which can lead to cravings, weight gain, and stubborn belly fat.   Hormonal Imbalances: Hormones like insulin, ghrelin, and leptin regulate hunger, fat storage, and energy. If they’re off, no diet will stick.   One-Size-Fits-All Approach: Your body isn’t the same as your friend’s or co-worker’s. Generic plans don’t address your specific needs. What to Do Instead of Dieting If diets don’t work, what does? You need to get to the root cause of what’s really going on in your body. That’s where I come in with the $99 Root Cause Reset—a game-changing service designed to help you finally understand what’s holding you back. What Is the $99 Root Cause Reset?

Understanding Auto-Brewery Syndrome: When Your Body Becomes a Brewery

Imagine this: you’ve been feeling foggy, unsteady, or downright “off,” but you haven’t had a single sip of alcohol. Yet somehow, your body feels like it’s processing a drink (or three). If this sounds familiar, you may be dealing with a rare condition called Auto-Brewery Syndrome (ABS). What Is Auto-Brewery Syndrome? Auto-Brewery Syndrome is exactly what it sounds like—your gut essentially turns into a brewery, fermenting carbohydrates into alcohol (ethanol) inside your digestive system. The result? Your blood alcohol levels can rise, leading to symptoms like: -Brain fog -Dizziness or lack of coordination -Fatigue -Mood swings -Digestive discomfort -Unexplained weight changes   ABS often goes undiagnosed because it’s so rare, and many conventional doctors aren’t familiar with it. Worse, you might feel dismissed or even judged for your symptoms. But here’s the thing: your symptoms are real, and they deserve attention. Why You Need to Be Proactive Living with untreated ABS can take a toll on your health and quality of life. Regular “alcohol episodes” can disrupt your daily routine, strain your relationships, and even lead to dangerous situations if blood alcohol levels spike unexpectedly. Left unchecked, ABS can also harm your gut health and immune function. Can Stress Cause Flare-Ups? Absolutely. Stress doesn’t just affect your mood—it can disrupt your gut microbiome, the delicate balance of bacteria in your digestive system. In people with ABS, stress might exacerbate symptoms by promoting the overgrowth of yeast, like Saccharomyces cerevisiae or Candida. This overgrowth fuels the fermentation process, leading to more frequent or severe episodes. Why Functional Medicine Is Key to Putting ABS in Remission Treating Auto-Brewery Syndrome isn’t as simple as taking a pill. It requires a holistic approach, and that’s where functional medicine excels. Unlike conventional medicine, which often treats symptoms in isolation, functional medicine dives deep to uncover the root cause of your condition.   At Solaris Whole Health, I take a comprehensive approach to wellness. With advanced testing, I can pinpoint imbalances in your gut microbiome, uncover triggers like diet or stress, and design a personalized plan to help you regain control of your health. Here’s how I can help: Extensive Testing: At Solaris Whole Health, we help you work smarter not harder.
