Natural, Integrative Treatments for Chronic Health Conditions

My Go-To Wellness Products for Gut, Brain, & Body

When it comes to healing, the right tools can make all the difference. Over the years, I’ve tested countless products—so you don’t have to.

 

This is my handpicked list of non-toxic, functional wellness essentials: from kitchen staples and clean living tools to health tech, sleep support, and more.

 

These are the items I personally trust and regularly recommend to clients navigating chronic symptoms, persistent conditions, gut-brain health, and root-cause healing.

Food Is Medicine

These products are from trusted brands with ingredients you can pronounce. Remember, count chemicals, not calories! Buy products that pass stringent, 3rd-party testing and will support your journey to beat chronic illness. If you're struggling with unresolved health issues and are tired of getting passed around from doctor to doctor with no real results, contact me today. I have a proven track record of solving the root cause of treatment-resistant symptoms.

I succeed when doctors fail you. Work with me, and you'll get lasting results.

best protein powder for gut health

Garden of Life

Protein Powder

As we age, we need more protein.

This protein powder is always in my smoothie. The added vitamins & minerals round out this product nicely. I prefer the vanilla flavor, but it also comes in chocolate. The Fit version & Sport version are also full of benefits. Experiment to see which one works best for you!

best collagen for mental health

Vital Proteins

Collagen Powder

I add 1 scoop of this collagen powder to my smoothie for an extra protein boost. You can also add it to coffee. There are about 28 types of collagen. This one is good for improving skin elasticity, inflammation, joint health, gut health, sleep, & mood.

best coconut oil for gut-brain health

Nature's Way

Coconut Oil

Coconut oil contains medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), which are used for energy by the body.

It may improve inflammation, brain function, support heart health, and aid in weight loss. 

best ghee for brain health

Organic Valley Ghee

Ghee is another great fat for cooking & baking. It tastes like nutty, creamy butter. I put 1 tsp in my smoothies or in a mug of bone broth. Ghee has fat-soluble vitamins, CLA, & butyrate.

Great for gut health, inflammation, & brain health.

best chia seed for OCD anxiety ADHD depression

Spectrum Chia Seed

Add chia seeds to smoothies, yogurt, water, & salads. I prefer ground chia because it doesn't get stuck in my teeth! Chia is a great source of omega-3, antioxidants, & fiber. Chia is great for your heart, gut, bones, & skin.  

best flaxseed for anxiety OCD depression ADHD

Spectrum Flaxseed

Flax is great for smoothies & yogurt. It adds some thickness while also ramping up your omega-3 & fiber intake. I prefer to alternate chia & flax in my smoothie for a change. It's a nutrient-dense food & great for heart, bone, skin, gut, & more!

best dark chocolate for calming anxiety

Chocolove 88%

Dark Chocolate

Quality high-cocoa dark chocolate is rich in antioxidants. These bars are divided into squares for easy portion control. You can slather on some coconut oil for healthy fat & have a satisfying treat! If you crave choco & sugar, read how to finally kick choco & sugar cravings here.

best dark chocolate for calming OCD

Endangered Species 88%

Dark Chocolate

These choco bars are another fav of mine. They're also divided into squares. It's important to buy choco that's been tested by 3rd parties because choco can be extremely dirty. You can trust these 2 brands are free from heavy metals.

best chocolate snack for gut health

Simple Mills

Sweet Thins

These cookies are more like crackers, but they hit the choco spot. It's hard not to eat the whole box. They're made from seed & nut flours so they're gluten-free & Paleo-friendly. Simple Mills makes other flavors and lots of other products. Try them all!

best gluten-free chips for mental health and gut health

Siete Tortilla Chips

These tortilla chips will soon be your fav because they're light & crispy. PLUS they're gluten-free & Paleo-friendly. They're made from cassava flour. Cassava is a root vegetable with a mild flavor, similar to yucca.

best gluten-free torillas for gut health

Siete Tortillas

Like the Siete chips, the tortillas are made with cassava flour. We use them for breakfast burritos, turkey wraps, & bean burritos. Siete also makes great-tasting almond flour tortillas.

Try them both!

best gluten-free tacos to improve gut health

Siete Taco Shells

Siete taco shells, like the chips & tortillas, are made from cassava flour. All products are gluten-free & Paleo-friendly. My family loves taco night because of these taco shells. We avoid corn & gluten so these shells save Taco Tuesdays!

Best bone broth to improve gut health & mental health

Kettle & Fire

Beef Bone Broth

I love this bone broth as a snack, especially when it's cold outside.

Pour 1 cup of bone broth into a coffee mug, add 1 tsp of ghee, microwave, stir, & enjoy!

Bone broth has many benefits: great for gut health, inflammation, joints, skin, hair, and nails.

best beef jerky for gut health and mental fitness

EPIC Wagyu Beef

Steak Jerky

EPIC beef jerky tastes savory & a bit sweet thanks to the added touch of honey. It's a great on-the-go snack to up your protein intake. If you prefer less sweet, try one of their other flavors: venison, bison, chicken, or salmon. 

best popcorn for sensitive gut

Lesser Evil

Organic Popcorn

Popcorn can be full of toxins because corn is one of the most genetically-modified & heavily-pesticided items on earth. Corn can also be hard to digest. Lesser Evil has your popcorn fix without the toxicity. Try all their flavors! You can't go wrong!

best ginger green tea for stress anxiety OCD ADHD

Traditional Medicinals

Green Tea with Ginger

Green tea is beneficial because it is low in caffeine, has EGCG (powerful antioxidant), & L-theanine (calming amino acid). Don't like green tea? The trick is to steep different teas together for a custom blend. I like to blend this one & Yogi Dandelion Detox.

best dandelion tea for anxiety OCD ADHD stress

Yogi Tea

Dandelion Detox

This caffeine-free herbal tea pairs well with green tea. I limit myself to 2 cups of green tea/day so herbal teas without caffeine help when I'm bored with water. Note that herbal teas can conflict with prescriptions so check with your doctor before consuming, & confirm dosage constraints. 

best green tea for OCD anxiety stress ADHD

Tazo Tea

Green Ginger Pear

This Tazo tea is nice because it has a shorter steep time (1-3 minutes) which is helpful for those days you cannot wait for 10-minute tea. I'm looking at you, Monday.

There are too many great teas to list them all here. These brands have a wide variety of flavors for you to explore. 

Consult with your doctor before making changes to supplements, diet, and lifestyle.

best multivitamin for anxiety OCD ADHD stress

Women's Multivitamin

vitamin D natural treatment for mental health

Now

Vitamin D3 with K2

Many of us are low in vitamin D because we spend too much time indoors & wear sunscreen when we go outdoors. This D3 comes with K2, which is key for vitamin D absorption. Vitamin D is known to help with regulating mood as well as decreasing anxiety & depression.

Turmeric for inflammation, OCD therapist near me

Dr.'s Best High Absorption Curcumin

Curcumin (found in turmeric) is widely used to combat inflammation. Inflammation leads to many symptoms such as anxiety, stress, & depression. Curcumin may also increase brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), which helps our brains form new neurons. New neurons = ability to deal with trauma + stress.

Natural Calm, magnesium for anxiety, anxiety therapist near me

Natural Vitality Calm

Magnesium

Magnesium is crucial because it's used by every cell in your body, & many people are deficient in it. Low levels impact brain function & increase susceptibility to stress, which can result in depression & anxiety. This magnesium is easy to take -- just add a scoop to your favorite beverage. It comes in an unflavored version as well.

Consult with your doctor before making changes to supplements, diet, and lifestyle.

Does your mind go numb when you walk by the supplement aisle at the store?

That's totally normal! Supplements are a $160 billion dollar industry with countless products. It's hard to know which brands to trust, let alone which products will actually help you. Maybe you've tried a few and didn't get many results.

 

Either way, I'm here to help. You need a trusted expert who teaches you how to use supplements to overcome that annoying health problem that 7 doctors haven't figured out.

Calming Hacks

These items are some of my favorite ways to induce calm and activate the parasympathetic nervous system (PNS), aka rest & digest mode. If you've ever been stuck in one of the 4 Fs (fight, flight, fawn, or freeze), your sympathetic nervous system (SNS) is activated. Calm only happens when the PNS is activated.

 

If you consistently live in "fight or flight" and find it difficult to unwind and relax, contact me today. My unique blend of functional medicine and integrative psychotherapy is unmatched. When you work with me, you'll experience truly holistic mind-body healing. I'll connect the dots and explain why you feel the way you do and why you struggle to get well. Most importantly, I'll solve the root cause of your issues, and you'll feel the best you've ever felt.

Polyvagal cards, vagus nerve exercise for anxiety

Polyvagal Card Deck

Based on the Polyvagal Theory, which explores the nervous system's role in regulating emotions & behavior, these cards help you understand and work with your autonomic nervous system to promote self-regulation and well-being. There are simple exercises to follow on each card.

Natural ways to calm and soothe anxiety

Pillow Set

Acupressure mats stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system (PNS), promoting relaxation & reducing stress. This activation fosters better sleep, pain relief, muscle tension release, & an overall sense of

Anxiety Coloring Book for natural anxiety treatment

Anxiety Coloring Book

Coloring can be a soothing and meditative activity. It engages your mind and hands in a repetitive, rhythmic task, which can help reduce stress levels and promote relaxation. It can distract you from anxious thoughts and worries as it redirects your attention away from stressful situations.

Epsom Salt

Maximize your bath with Epsom salt, aka magnesium sulfate. As the magnesium is absorbed thru the skin, calm feelings will envelop you. A common mistake is not adding enough Epsom salt. Use 4 to 5 cups per 30 gallon tub.

Soak for 20 - 30 minutes.

Snug sleeper for anxiety, OCD natural treatments

Hug Sleep 

Hooded Sleep Pod

This Shark Tank product was developed by a therapist. As it swaddles you in a cocoon, it creates the feeling of a gentle hug. Adults can benefit from swaddling just like infants! It provides a sense of security, thus inducing calmness. It can lower the stress response & reduce cortisol levels, which leads to less anxiety. 

Weighted blanket, best natural treatment for OCD, natural treatment for anxiety

4 Pound Weighted Shoulder Wrap

You've probably heard about weighted blankets by now. This shoulder wrap is like a mini weighted blanket. The benefit to a shoulder wrap is the deep pressure on the shoulders can have a calming effect on the nervous system. It's also easier to pack than a blanket. Each body is different so experiment to see what's right for you.

Best massager for naturally relieving anxiety, heal anxiety naturally

Shiatsu Neck & Shoulder

Massager with Heat

Like the shoulder wrap, this massager targets key pressure points, thus inducing calm as it stimulates the release of endorphins, the body's natural "feel-good" chemicals. It promotes relaxation and helps release tension & anxiety. 10 min works wonders! It's a great way to practice self-care & allow ourselves time to rest & digest. 

Consult with your doctor before making changes to supplements, diet, and lifestyle.

Are you stuck in fight or flight?

If you're consistently in a high stress state and unable to unwind and relax, that's a serious problem. No joke.

 

Stress destroys the gut, brain, and body.

 

Your body is a biochemical factory.

Nutrients are the tools the factory workers use to do their jobs.

Your body has to be in "rest & digest" in order to absorb nutrients (tools) from food in order to do stuff, like... memorizing things, solving problems, sleeping well, digesting food, and much more!

​

You need a trusted expert who knows how to help your factory workers get the tools they need, ASAP.
