Vibrant Wellness is a personalized health analytics company founded on our passion to serve patients and practitioners. The Vibrant Wellness platform provides a tool for you to identify, track, and analyze your gut microbiome, leaky gut, and wheat sensitivity. This platform synthesizes the entire wheat protein, as peptides, and offers very specific antibody-to-antigen for all proteins found in whe

at. This allows us to identify true wheat sensitivity, including and beyond gluten. Additionally, the microchip-based platform allows us to analyze over 100 different types of gut bacteria at both the genus and species level-the most comprehensive and accurate gut bacteria profile available. Now you can take a “selfie” of your personal gut microbiome. Our staff of clinical dietitians with training and experience in functional medicine are available to help guide you through appropriate lifestyle changes based on your individual results.

Austin, we had a blast! 🙌

Last week, we had the pleasure of joining Dave Asprey's . Truly an iconic event that brought Vibrant face-to-face with the biggest names in wellness and a deeply engaged community of biohackers who share our passion and our mission.

From advanced diagnostics to cutting-edge lab science, everything we do is aimed at pioneering wellness and longevity. Being in a room full of people who live and breathe that same curiosity and commitment reminded us exactly why we do what we do.

It's moments like these where we truly feel the energy. Getting to meet the people whose lives Vibrant has touched - that's what it's all about.

Ever wonder why you can eat pasta all week in Italy but feel terrible after one bowl back home? 🍝

It's not in your head. Here's what's actually going on:

In Europe, wheat is largely still grown in its older, more traditional forms like einkorn, a grain that hasn't been heavily genetically hybridized. It's a small kernel with long tails, closer to what wheat has looked like for thousands of years. It's also grown without glyphosate, the herbicide widely sprayed on American crops.

In the US, the dominant strain is hard red winter wheat, which has been so extensively hybridized that it barely resembles its ancestors. No tails, giant kernels, and antigenically a completely different profile from what your body may have evolved to recognize and tolerate.

When the grain changes that dramatically, so does how your immune system responds to it. That bloat, brain fog, and discomfort after eating American bread or pasta? It may not be a gluten sensitivity. It may be a reaction to Frankenfood.

Your body knows the difference, even when the label says the same thing.

And this is just one piece of a much bigger picture. In this episode of the Vibrant Wellness Podcast, Dr. Victor Carsrud, MD, goes deep into the real root causes driving modern chronic disease:

👉 How mitochondrial dysfunction connects to everything from fatigue to Alzheimer's
👉 Why your genetics are not your destiny
👉 How everyday toxins and plastics are quietly disrupting your cells
👉 What fasting and autophagy actually do for cellular repair

Dr. Carsrud even walks through a real Parkinson's recovery case study that challenges everything conventional medicine assumes about neurodegeneration.

"You still have to eat." 🎙️

Christa Elza has been on GLP-1s for 2.5 years and she's here to tell you what actually makes them work. In this episode of the Vibrant Wellness Podcast with Dr. Alex Carrasco, Christa shares her journey from emergency medicine to functional and longevity-focused care, and why prevention, personalized medicine, and root-cause treatment are reshaping the future of health.

Drawing from her clinical experience and her own personal breast cancer journey, she breaks down how early detection, comprehensive testing, genetic insights, and proactive lifestyle interventions can help patients identify risks before they become disease.

And when it comes to GLP-1s, she gets personal. The protein, the lifting, the microdosing, the lab monitoring. All of it working together to preserve muscle mass and transform metabolic health without a single statin.

What actually makes these meds work? Diet, protein, resistance training, and medical oversight. She monitors labs closely, watches for iron drops and hair loss, and individualizes dosing for each patient. And the results speak for themselves:

✔️ Triglycerides down
✔️ LDL down
✔️ Blood pressure down
✔️ Insulin sensitivity up
✔️ No statins needed

GLP-1s are surging in popularity right now, and with that comes misuse. When used correctly, under proper medical supervision, and paired with healthy habits, these medications can be genuinely life-changing. Used carelessly, they can cause real harm.

Menopause doesn't cause autoimmunity. But it can expose the weak points that were already there.

As estrogen, progesterone, and melatonin decline, many women experience changes that go far beyond hot flashes:

• Increased inflammation
• Worsening autoimmune symptoms
• Poor sleep
• Gut health disruptions
• Fatigue and brain fog

The challenge is that these symptoms are often treated separately when they're actually connected through the hormone-immune-gut axis.

Understanding what's happening beneath the surface can help identify the factors contributing to immune dysregulation and inflammation during this transition.

That's why comprehensive testing can be so valuable. Looking at hormones, gut health, immune activity, and nutrient status together provides a more complete picture of what's influencing your health.

IFM AIC 2026 is a wrap and what an experience it was.

As Platinum Sponsors, we had the privilege of being surrounded by some of the most forward-thinking practitioners in functional medicine. The conversations were real, the connections were meaningful, and the energy in that room is something we carry back with us every single year.

To every provider who stopped by, shared their story, or is out there championing root-cause care for their patients, this one's for you. Grateful to be part of this community.

Thank you . Until next year. 💙

Most people spend years chasing the symptom.

A new supplement for the brain fog. A new protocol for the bloating. Treating each thing like it exists in isolation. As if the body is a collection of separate problems waiting to be solved one at a time.

But the body doesn't work that way.

When something breaks down, it rarely stays contained. It spreads. It signals. It may show up somewhere else entirely.

A compromised gut lining → chronic inflammation → a compromised blood-brain barrier → neuroinflammation.

That's not a coincidence, that's a chain. And until you start treating it as one connected system, you'll keep mopping the floor with the tap still running.

That's the work we do at Vibrant Wellness. Not just managing what's on the surface, but actually looking upstream at what's driving it.

Your brain has a speed setting. And music might be able to change it.

Anxiety isn't just psychological, it's a physiological state your nervous system is actively running. That's part of why "just relax" doesn't work. You can't think your way out of a state your body is locked into.

What's interesting about this research isn't just that music helped. It's that the effect showed up even in people already on anti-anxiety medication, which suggests sound-based tools may work through a different pathway than pharmacological ones. Not replacing anything, but adding something.

If your nervous system feels chronically stuck in that state, it's worth asking what's driving it at the root.

The Neural Zoomer by Vibrant Wellness helps map neurological markers that can contribute to ongoing brain and nervous system stress.

Eating clean does not always mean eating enough.

In this episode of the Vibrant Wellness Podcast, Dr. Christine Maren, DO, sits down with Dr. Alex Carrasco to break down the connections between hormones, gut health, thyroid function, metabolism, and the nervous system, especially during perimenopause and midlife.

The conversation explores why so many women feel exhausted, inflamed, anxious, and stuck in midlife, even when they are eating clean, exercising, and trying to do everything “right.”

They also unpack:
✅ Perimenopause symptoms most women miss
✅ How your gut influences estrogen
✅ Strength training, fiber & daily wellness habits
✅ Joy, dance & women’s emotional health
✅ Trauma recovery & “the body keeps the score”

We're thrilled to be returning to IFM's Annual International Conference as a Platinum Sponsor.

This is one of our favorite rooms to be in all year. Functional medicine providers who are pushing the field forward, asking harder questions, and refusing to settle for surface-level answers are our kind of people.

If you're attending in person, stop by Booth #301. We'd love to talk about how our tests can support the kind of root-cause, patient-centered care IFM has been building toward for over 30 years.

Attending virtually? You can find us at our virtual booth in the AIC Conference app.

📍 May 27–30 | Manchester Grand Hyatt | Booth 301

See you there! 🌊
