The Holidays are Coming,
Optimize your Gut
You might think we mean add extra digestive enzymes to help with meat and desserts. That’s always a good idea too.
Actually, we’re adding this here to help remind you to shore up your gut health for mental health reasons!
In recent years, growing research has illuminated the profound connection between gut health and mental well-being, a relationship known as the gut-brain axis.
Functional medicine practitioners are increasingly focusing on the microbiome—the collection of bacteria, viruses, and other microbes in the digestive tract—as a key player in regulating mood, immune function, and overall health.
Studies have shown that imbalances in gut bacteria can contribute to conditions like anxiety, depression, and even cognitive decline. The holidays are hard enough, so call us now to make an appointment to strengthen your gut. It will help everything this holiday season, even your stress levels!
By nourishing the gut with the right diet, lifestyle changes, and targeted supplementation, we can positively influence our mental and emotional well-being.
At Healing Alternatives, we are passionate about integrating the latest scientific findings with holistic approaches to health.
Our practitioners are here to help you explore personalized solutions for optimizing gut health, from recommending probiotics to offering nutritional guidance and functional testing.
Let us guide you on the path to improving not only your physical health but your emotional wellness as well.

LDI Focus
Did you know that Low Dose Immunotherapy (LDI) has many applications beyond food and environmental allergies and sensitivities?
LDI is a therapy to modulate the immune system, so any condition that is immune mediated (where the immune system is reacting inappropriately) may benefit from this approach.
Beyond addressing food and environmental triggers, conditions that respond well to LDI include alopecia areata, celiac disease, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis and even psoriasis!
At Healing Alternatives, we work to maximize the benefits of LDI by taking a comprehensive Functional Medicine approach that works to help you become the healthiest version of yourself!

Product Highlights
As we continue to navigate a world where our health is more important than ever, functional medicine offers a comprehensive way to support and strengthen the body’s natural defenses.
Beyond traditional methods, research highlights the role of lifestyle factors such as nutrition, stress management, and sleep in maintaining a resilient immune system.
Certain nutrients like vitamin D, cordyceps, and antioxidants have been shown to play key roles in bolstering immunity, while chronic stress and poor sleep can suppress immune function, leaving us more vulnerable to illness.
If you don’t have time to do a deep dive into full visit, here’s a quick bundle for you as Fall rolls around.
Vitamins A/D/K/E in one supplement!
ADK Evail™ provides a synergistic combination of fat-soluble vitamins featuring 125 mcg (5,000 IU) of vitamin D, along with efficacious amounts of vitamin A, vitamin K (including K1 and K2), and vitamin E isomers (as DeltaGold® tocotrienols) in one convenient softgel serving. This formula is designed to help support the balance of fat-soluble vitamins in the body, and to help promote bone, heart, and immune health.*
Herbal Immune Support
Immunitone Plus™ contains herbs that help support normal natural killer cell activity and the balance of cytokines, which are the regulatory proteins released by immune cells as part of a normal immune response.
Echinacea and Andrographis to promote a healthy inflammatory response*
Astragalus and green tea extract to support a normal immune response*
Elderberry to support antioxidant status in the body*
Arabinogalactan to promote normal microbial diversity in the gut*
Mushroom blend and beta‑glucans to support immune function*
Good Bacteria to support mood and immune strength
If you’ve been a patient long enough, we don’t have to tell you how important a healthy microbiome is to immune health!
ProbioMed™ 50 is a highly potent, shelf-stable, dairy-free probiotic formulation. It consists of 10 of the most highly researched probiotic strains. Novel packaging removes the need for refrigeration, making it convenient for travelers and anyone on the go. *
Stress Resistance / Sleep
NeuroCalm™ is designed to promote the activity of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and serotonin, which may help support healthy moods, cravings, and feelings of calm, satiety, and satisfaction.* NeuroCalm™ contains PharmaGABA®, a form of GABA naturally manufactured through a fermentation process. Support for the production of calming neurotransmitters is also provided by L-theanine and taurine.*
