Well…this is a BIG one for the Functional Medicine world. 👀

Thorne announced this week that it has entered into an agreement to be acquired by Procter & Gamble for approximately $3.8 billion💰

And I’ve already seen the reactions ranging from:

“Thorne is ruined.”

to…

“This doesn’t matter at all.”

I don’t think either response is particularly helpful.

Do I think Thorne suddenly became a bad supplement company overnight? No ❌

But do I think practitioners should pay very close attention when a company that built its reputation on practitioner trust, ingredient quality, rigorous testing, and transparency gets acquired by one of the largest consumer-product companies in the world?

Absolutely 💯

Because when it comes to supplements, the details matter.

Ingredient sourcing matters.
Dosages matter.
Testing matters.
Preservatives matter.
Manufacturing standards matter.

And those are exactly the things I’ll be watching over the next several years.

I’m not immediately pulling every Thorne product I use or recommend simply because of an acquisition.

But I also don’t have loyalty to a supplement 💊 company just because I’ve used them for years.

My loyalty is to my patients.

If the quality stays the same—or improves—great ✅

If formulations, sourcing, testing, transparency, or quality begin to change, then my recommendations will change too.

But I think there’s an even BIGGER conversation here:

Functional Medicine and personalized wellness have become valuable enough that some of the largest corporations in the world want in.

That tells you something.

The Functional Medicine space isn’t nearly as “fringe” as people once liked to pretend it was.

And as this industry continues to grow, I think independent practitioners are going to have an increasingly important job:

Look past the logo on the bottle and pay attention to what’s actually inside of it 🧐

Curious what you think about the acquisition—does it change how you feel about Thorne? 👇

This is something most doctors👨🏼‍⚕️aren’t talking about, but it is a medical fact.

The World Health Organization (WHO) has officially classified certain parasites—like the liver fluke—as a Class 1 carcinogen. 🦠🔬

These parasites don’t just cause “tummy issues.” They create chronic inflammation and cellular damage that can directly lead to cancer over time.

Standard medicine often ignores this connection, leaving people to suffer from “unexplained” inflammation 🔥 until it’s too late.

If you want to prevent long-term disease, you HAVE to prioritize your gut health. You cannot achieve true health while carrying a burden of chronic infections, like parasites. 🌿✨

Stop masking the symptoms and start addressing the ROOT cause.

Hi 👋 I’m Dr. Kate!

If you’ve landed on my page, that probably means that you're dealing with some sort of chronic gut issue: constipation, bloating, IBS, acid reflux, gluten and dairy sensitivities, etc.

I used to deal with most of these issues, and I was able to overcome them naturally with theright individualized care.

If you're on this page and maybe you've lost hope or think you're too far gone, I just want to encourage you that healing is ABSOLUTELY possible 💯 You're not stuck this way. I don't care what doctors have told you. I don't care what diagnosis you were given.

I was diagnosed with gastroparesis when I was 24, told that I would either have to get my intestines removed or go on a drug 💊 that had a very common side effect of permanent facial twitches. I chose neither of those options, and after a nearly decade-long journey of getting to the root cause, my gut is completely fine.

The biggest things that I see with people are that they're not being tested for chronic infections 🪱🦠 and toxins. Those were the biggest triggers for all of the gut issues that I was experiencing.

I went nearly a decade without really getting a full answer on what was going on in my body. I don't want you to wait that long to find a solution and to get an answer to whatever gut issues you've been dealing with.

Just know that there IS hope. It IS possible. You're not stuck this way.

If you're someone who's really struggling and you want someone to work with you to come up with an individualized care plan to really get to the root cause of what is creating your gut issues, go ahead and just shoot me a DM. Let me know what's going on with you, and I'll walk you through my process so we can get you on a path to healing.

You’re eating the “perfect” diet but your gut is still a mess. 🥗

You’re bloated. You’re tired. You’re stressed.

Here’s the hard truth: You can’t digest your food if your body thinks it’s being chased by a lion. 🦁

When you are stuck in sympathetic drive (fight-or-flight), your body diverts blood AWAY from your digestive system. It doesn’t care about your bloating or constipation: it cares about survival.

If you want to heal, you have to talk to your Vagus Nerve. 🧠

The quickest way to do that? THE LONG EXHALE. 💨

By making your exhale twice as long as your inhale, you send an immediate signal to your brain that you are SAFE.

✅ Activates the PARASYMPATHETIC nervous system
✅ Stimulates digestive enzymes
✅ Improves motility

Try this: Inhale for 4 seconds, hold for 4 seconds, exhale for 8 seconds, hold for 4 seconds. Repeat this 5 times before your next meal and watch what happens.

It’s simple, it’s free, and it’s a MASSIVE game changer for chronic gut issues that haven’t responded to typical treatments.

Ever feel like you catch every single bug the second life gets a little too busy? 🤒

That’s not just bad timing. It’s the Stress-Immune Seesaw in action. ⚖️

Here’s how it works:
When your STRESS levels go up, your IMMUNE FUNCTION naturally goes down.

When your body is stuck in "fight or flight" mode (high cortisol), it shifts energy away from your internal defense system. Your body thinks it’s running from a metaphorical bear. 🐻

If you’re:
❌ Getting sick every time you have a big deadline
❌ Feeling run down and permanently exhausted
❌ Getting gut issues you never had before
..your nervous system is likely stuck on the wrong side of the seesaw.

Stress --> Leaky Gut
Stress --> Chronic Infections

The good news? You can balance the scale. ⚖️ By focusing on nervous system downregulation, you can get your defenses back up.

When your immune system is fully online, parasites and other infections are much less likely to overgrow in your body.

Simple things like grounding, breathwork, prioritizing sleep, hydration, and good quality food can have a huge effect on naturally lowering stress hormones in your body.

Your gut isn’t just for digesting food. It’s the COMMAND CENTER for your entire body. 🧠🛡️

Think about it:
✅ 70-80% of your immune system lives in your gut.
✅ 95% of your serotonin (your “happy hormone”) is produced there.
✅ Your gut plays a huge role in hormone regulation.

If your gut is a mess, your whole system is a mess. 📉

When my patients come to me with “brain fog,” “anxiety,” or “hormonal imbalances,” we always start at the source. Because you can take all the supplements in the world, but if your drainage pathways are blocked and your gut is inflamed, you’re just pouring water into a leaky bucket. 🪣💧

Healing the gut is the FIRST step to full-body wellness. It’s about more than just avoiding bloating: it’s about reclaiming your energy, your mood, and your life. ⚡️

Some mental health issues may not be brain issues 🧠

If you’re struggling with anxiety, low motivation, or that constant “cloudy” feeling, you might be looking at the wrong organ.

Most people don’t realize that your gut is actually your “second brain.” 🤯

In fact:
✅ 90-95% of SEROTONIN (your “happy chemical”) is produced and stored in your gut.
✅ About 50-70% of DOPAMINE (your motivation molecule) is stored there too.

When your gut is inflamed or your drainage pathways are backed up, your brain feels the fire. 🔥 You can take all the supplements and “mindset” courses you want, but if the foundation is broken, you’re just putting a band-aid on a massive problem. 🩹

Mental health is a complex topic, and I realize that many other factors play a role, but the gut is oftentimes overlooked in the healing process. It’s not always “all in your head”: many times, it’s in your gut.
