ONLINE SCHEDULING
A Quick Note About Online Scheduling
Hi everyone,
We wanted to share a quick tip that may make scheduling your appointments a little easier.
When scheduling from your phone, the system only allows you to view availability one day at a time. This means you may have to click through several days to find when your preferred staff member is working.
A helpful workaround is to schedule from a desktop computer. On the desktop version, you can view a full 7 days of that staff member’s schedule at once, making it much easier to see their available appointment times.
Unfortunately, the mobile version does not currently display the schedule the same way. If you are having trouble finding availability for a specific provider, we recommend trying the desktop version for a better view of their schedule or Text/call the office (763)710-0976
Thank you for your patience and understanding!
Vitamin D is technically NOT a vitamin but a steroid hormone. Vitamin D is a powerful PROHORMONE which helps us absorb calcium.
Optimizing Vitamin D levels can help:
-
Reduce essential HTN, reducing risk of CVD
-
reduce risk of type 2 diabetes
-
absorb calcium into our bones
-
decrease inflammation in our body
Just to name a few of the benefits of optimized Vitamin D levels.
Low Vitamin D levels are associated with Obesity of a BMI greater than 30 and patients with a BMI of greater than 30 should be checked for low Vitamin D levels.
One theory of low Vitamin D levels in association with obesity is that Vitamin D can affect insulin secretion and insulin resistance. So in conclusion Vitamin D optimization may play a crucial in weight loss and should be routinely checked.
How Does Vitamin D Deficiency Happen?
Vitamin D Deficiency, has been linked to cardio-vascular, auto-immune and metabolic diseases, concurrently, Vitamin D is not found in many food sources, especially for Vegans.
Also, due to an increase in sunscreen use, it has become more difficult for our body’s to absorb the vitamin D we need to function at 100%. Without the time, ability or desire to sit in the sun, external supplementation is the best way to receive all of the healing benefits of this powerful nutrient for people with a vitamin D deficiency. Vitamin D deficiency is a much more common problem than many people realize since we do not get enough of it through the food or the sun.
To receive your first Vitamin D Shot from Body Aesthetics please present your most recent blood panel of Vitamin D to indicate you are indeed suffering from a Vitamin D deficiency. If you do not have a current blood panel, we can order a test for you!
