At Spark Vital Health in Carmel, Indiana, we understand the importance of cardiometabolic health and offer a functional medicine approach that goes beyond simply managing symptoms.

Understanding Cardiometabolic Health

Cardiometabolic health encompasses the interconnectedness of your cardiovascular and metabolic systems. It’s about more than just preventing heart disease or diabetes—it’s about optimizing your overall health and well-being.
Factors that contribute to cardiometabolic health include:

Blood sugar levels: Maintaining healthy blood sugar levels is crucial for preventing diabetes and related complications.

Cholesterol levels: Keeping cholesterol levels in check can reduce your risk of heart disease.

Blood pressure: Managing blood pressure is essential for heart health and overall cardiovascular function.

Body composition: A healthy body composition, with optimal levels of muscle and fat, is important for metabolic function.

Inflammation: Chronic inflammation can damage blood vessels and contribute to various metabolic disorders.

The Functional Medicine Difference

Functional medicine takes a personalized and holistic approach to cardiometabolic health. Alissa McDivitt, FNP-C, M.S., IFMCP, will work with you to uncover the root causes of your health concerns and develop an individualized plan to optimize your heart and metabolic health. This may include:

Comprehensive lab testing: Assessing blood sugar, cholesterol, lipid panels, inflammatory markers, and other key indicators of cardiometabolic health.

Lifestyle modifications: Creating a personalized plan that includes dietary changes, exercise recommendations, stress management techniques, and sleep optimization.

Nutritional counseling: Providing guidance on food choices that support heart and metabolic health.

Targeted supplements: Recommending specific supplements to address nutrient deficiencies or support cardiovascular and metabolic function.

Your Family History Doesn't Have to Be Your Destiny

If you have a family history of heart disease, diabetes, or other metabolic conditions, you’re not powerless to prevent them.
