  • 6/29 Update

Happy 4th of July week! 
We will be open Monday-Thursday this week at normal hours and will be closed this Friday, July 3rd.   

I am often asked by patients if I had to take ONE supplement what would it be. In other words what should everyone, or at least nearly everyone, take as a supplement. That answer without pause would be Fish Oil. 

Fish oil, Omega Three Fatty Acid, EPA- DHA, essential fatty acid, krill oil, PUFA/polyunsaturated fatty acids, etc are all different names for Fish Oil.

So why Fish Oil? There are numerous studies on the health benefits of Fish Oil and the fatty acids in Fish Oil are considered essential (buzz word of the year!!).  Essentially, in this context, it means two things: first, you cannot live without them and second, you need them in your diet because we are unable to make them make them on our own.

They are embedded in the lipid layer of just about every cell in your body and are vital in regulating inflammation. This mean it effects just about everything from cardiovascular health to brain health, to the immune system, skin health, allergies, and so much more… 

Most of us operate not in “total deficiency” but in “insufficiency”, meaning we are just low enough that it shows very subtle, inconclusive signs and symptoms.

Now there is a way to know exactly where you are in your Omega profile: we offer a simple test, where we take a drop of blood from a finger and send it off to analyze the blood cells. The results give us the exact information we need to tell how much fish oil you should take or how much fish you should eat, to get into your normal range within 4 months. And also how much you need to maintain it once you are at your optimal level. 

This test can be a real eye opener. I eat a great diet, so I thought I was going to be great but I was actually in the bottom half of good, meaning I was 33% of optimal. Yikes! So we are eating more fish and I am taking more fish oil capsules to get where I need to be.

So, ask us for the Omega test and we will get you set up with a plan to help stabilize your health and wellness.

Have a blast this 4th and stay safe!

God Bless, 

Dr. Dan and Dr. Jean

Testimonial

Kurt Bassuener, President of MWS Associates, Inc.

MWS Associates has leased office space in the Business Center since the inception of our company in 2018 and from 2015-2018 with the previous company that I worked for.  The Business Center was the clear choice for us to locate our main office for several reasons: location, cost effectiveness, reliable high-speed internet, services offered and full access to the conference room.  It truly offers everything our company needs to headquarter our business from without the hassle of owning our own office building with the maintenance, yard care and snowplowing that goes along with ownership.  

A major benefit for us is the ability to host in-person and online meetings in the newly renovated, state-of-the-art conference room.  COVID changed many aspects of our business with a major increase in online meetings being one of them.  Many companies struggled with technology issues to host or participate in online meetings with poor audio, video quality, background noise and unprofessional business settings negatively affecting meetings.  The size, layout and quality of the A/V equipment of the conference room now allows us to host annual company-wide in-person meetings as well. Every October we bring our entire staff in from around the country for weeklong meetings and the conference room comfortably allows us to host 20+ people.  The setting also allows us to host on-site meetings with key accounts.  Clients appreciate being able to combine a business trip with bringing their family to enjoy a few extra days to experience all Door County has to offer.
