The Foundation Stack
Four products. One daily routine. This is the stack I take myself and put under nearly every patient: the raw materials your body needs to rebuild tissue, hold onto muscle, calm inflammation, and actually repair while you sleep.
Collagen without vitamin C is leaving repair on the table, because C is the required cofactor for collagen synthesis. Fish oil quiets the inflammation that blocks healing. Creatine protects muscle and bone, which is the single best predictor of how well you age. Together they are a complete rebuild protocol.
- Super EPA — high-potency omega-3s to calm systemic inflammation
- Collagen Fit — the building blocks for joints, tendons, skin, and connective tissue
- Creatine — muscle, bone density, and brain support in one scoop a day
- Vitamin C with Flavonoids — the cofactor that turns collagen into actual repair

Joint, Tendon & Pain Support
Joint pain after 40 is rarely just wear and tear. It is collagen loss, low-grade inflammation, and tissue that has stopped repairing the way it used to. You cannot needle your way out of a tissue-quality problem, which is why I pair treatment with the raw materials your body needs to rebuild.
This is the foundation I put under nearly every pain patient in my practice.
- Collagen Fit — the building blocks for tendon, ligament, and joint repair
- Super EPA — high-potency omega-3s to calm the inflammation driving the pain
Longevity & Strength for Women 50+
Women lose muscle and bone faster than anyone tells them, and it accelerates through perimenopause. Strength after 50 is the single best predictor of how well you age, how independent you stay, and how good you feel in your body for the next 30 years. It is buildable at any age with the right inputs.
Creatine is not a bodybuilder supplement. It is one of the most researched compounds in existence for muscle, bone, and brain in women over 50. I take it myself, and I recommend it to nearly every woman I work with on her longevity plan.
- Creatine — muscle, bone density, and cognitive support in one scoop a day
- Collagen Fit — skin, joint, and connective tissue support
- Vitamin D/K2 Liquid — the pair that actually gets calcium into bone, not arteries
Energy & Stress
Tired but wired is not a personality trait. It is a nervous system stuck in overdrive and adrenals running on fumes. Caffeine borrows energy from tomorrow. These do not.
If you wake up exhausted and cannot wind down at night, start here, and consider taking my hormone quiz, because this pattern rarely travels alone.
- Emotion Balance Support — mood and neurotransmitter support with Rhodiola, 5-HTP, and GABA
- Stress B-Complex — B vitamins with extra B5 to support adrenals under chronic stress
- Magnesium Bisglycinate — the calming mineral most depleted by long-term stress
Deep, Restorative Sleep
Sleep is not a luxury, it is when your body repairs everything else on this page. If you fall asleep fine but wake at 2 or 3 AM with a racing mind, that is a pattern I see constantly, and it responds to the right support.
No sedatives. No grogginess. Just the minerals and compounds your nervous system needs to stay down.
- Magnesium Bisglycinate — the most absorbable form for calming the nervous system at night
- PharmaGABA-250 — natural GABA to settle a racing mind at bedtime
- 5-HTP — serotonin support for sleep onset and staying asleep
Digestion & Gut Health
Your gut is where nutrients get in, hormones get processed, and a surprising amount of your immune system lives. Bloating, irregularity, and food reactions are signals, not inconveniences.
Get the gut working and everything else on this page works better.
- FloraMend Prime Probiotic — clinically studied strains for daily gut and immune support
- Advanced Digestive Enzymes — for the meals that sit heavy and the foods that fight back
- Leaky Gut Support (formerly EnteroMend) — for gut lining repair when things have been off for a while
Metabolism & Healthy Weight
If you have been gaining weight despite doing all the right things, you do not need more willpower. You need to understand what changed. Perimenopause shifts insulin sensitivity, raises cortisol, and changes how your body stores fat, especially around the middle. The old advice stops working because the rules of your metabolism actually changed.
This stack supports the three levers that matter most for midlife weight: blood sugar regulation, inflammation, and the cortisol-fat connection. Supplements are half the answer. Muscle is the other half, which is why every weight conversation in my office becomes a strength conversation too.
- Whey Protein Isolate — 21g of clean protein per serving to preserve muscle, control hunger, and stabilize blood sugar
- Berberine — the most-researched compound for insulin sensitivity and blood sugar control
- Metabolic Health — bergamot and curcumin to address the cortisol-belly-fat connection
The Longevity Consult
The protocols on this page are my starting points. They are not your plan. If you are serious about the next 30 years being your strongest, you need a strategy built for your body, your labs, your goals, and where you are in the aging arc.
I am also certified in personal training with a specialized focus on women over 50 and senior health. That means your longevity plan is not just herbs and supplements. It is the full picture: nutrition, strength, hormones, recovery, and the specific inputs your body needs to thrive in the back half of life.
This is the work that does not fit into a free 15-minute call. It deserves its own appointment.
- Personalized supplement & herbal protocol built for your specific history and goals
- Nutrition & strength guidance tailored for women 50+ from a credentialed trainer
- Written longevity plan you take home and follow
- 20% Thorne discount on every product I recommend
The iCare Device: my clinic, at home
Frequency Specific Microcurrent is the most powerful tool in my practice, and the iCare puts it in your hands between visits. Daily PEMF and microcurrent therapy for pain, inflammation, sleep, and recovery, without driving to Appleton.
I trained under Dr. Carolyn McMakin, the developer of modern FSM, and the iCare is the home device I trust to deliver real frequencies, not wellness-gadget marketing. My patients use it for chronic pain, post-surgical recovery, sleep, and nervous system regulation.
Supplements work best when they are chosen for you.
These protocols are my starting points, not a prescription. The fastest path to the right plan is a conversation. Book a free 30-minute consultation and I will tell you exactly what your body needs, and just as importantly, what it does not.
