If you are looking for cardiometabolic disease treatment, it is likely you have been to your family doctor, told you have high blood pressure, are at risk for a heart attack, or you have fatty liver disease. Understanding your cardiometabolic disease and treating the disease is of the utmost importance and urgency. Below are 3 core types of cardiometabolic disease:

BUDDY TOUCHINSKY, DC, CFMP

“Being in a very high risk category myself due to genetics, I have taken a personal interest in finding out how to best assess someone’s overall risk and how to best reduce that risk.” 

“Cardiometabolic issues is by far the largest killer and reason people become disabled. Stroke and heart attack aside, poor cardiometabolic health leads to premature aging, dementia, fatty liver disease, kidney failure, and even many cancers. The sooner we can assess and address our risk, the better.”

– Dr. Buddy Touchinsky DC, CFMP

1. Cardiovascular Disease

There are six factors that highly impact cardiovascular disease progression, and all are highly actionable.

  • ApoB cholesterol
  • Smoking
  • Hypertension
  • Blood Sugar
  • Inflammation
  • Physical Inactivity

At PEAK, we take an all of the above approach to address all of these factors.

2. Diabetes Mellitus

We primarily focus on Type 2 diabetes, but we also provide coaching and treatment for both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes. While the two are drastically different, they are both heavily impacted by diet and physical activity. We take a proactive approach to your health so you do not develop more health issues with poorly managed diabetes. Contact us to reach PEAK Health and receive the treatment you need for Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes.

3. Chronic Renal Failure

Chronic renal failure is directly tied to the failure of your kidneys to effectively filter waste out of your blood. While there are not obvious signs or symptoms of chronic renal failure, you can experience tiredness, loss of appetite as well as insomnia, or increased need to go to the bathroom due to fluid retention.

This means the food you eat, specifically the food high in salt, potassium, and high in protein, has a greater impact on your health. By managing your diet along with ongoing monitoring of your blood, you can prevent chronic renal failure.

Great place! I came here back in June upon the recommendation of Iron Mind Counseling as I was having very bad anxiety and health issues as well. They offer great comprehensive blood work and even pointed me towards a blood serum mycotoxin test as I knew I likely was having mold illness. From both blood works I got the confirmation that I really needed to jump on this! And I likely would have kept pushing it off and dealing with it with the doctors I had been seeing in the past who weren’t offering the right tests or treatments. I’m glad that by going here I have come to find that there is an affordable way to treat this and I don’t have to keep jumping through hoops! Highly recommend!

I LOVE PEAK and all the staff. I have some challenges with anxiety and they are all so accommodating with me. They respond in a timely manner, I never feel rushed thru appointments and when I bring up a concern no matter how far fetched it might seem, they talk me thru why it could or couldn't be that issue. Highly recommend

While we do have our "regular" doctor/PCP with a large local health system, we have been delighted with PEAK and its staff and programs. They have helped us learn more about consequences of personal choices with nutrition, have a great medical staff and nutrition health coaches. If you are looking for supplemental medical help or even full time, this is the place to go. Along with Healthy Habits Organic store we have both attained better habits, better health outcomes and better understanding of how to properly monitor our health. Check them out.

I cannot say enough about Peak Integrative.This is the future of healthcare.Instead of just telling you what is wrong they actually look into what could be your issue and how to treat it instead of promoting some new off the wall pharmaceutical products to sell you in hopes you feel better. All starts with you and your body and the mindset.. First you do a discussion of your health and concerns. Bloodwork testing in all areas to see where to start and finding what could be wrong with you. Available chat sessions and very quick to respond to any issues you may have. Definitely try Peak . Maybe the game changer you need to a healthier and happy lifestyle.

Can't say enough about the incredible experience that I had today at Peak Integrative Medicine. The staff was extremely friendly and professional. Buddy Touchinsky was wonderful, he spent an ample amount of time going over options and making several suggestions to help my son. This practice deserves 10 stars!!! I highly recommend this practice.

Everyone here is completely dedicated with their knowledge and personal, friendly commitment to helping every client achieve the best health possible. This is the best step I have on my wellness journey!!

Peak Integrative Medicine is by far the best practice in the area. The facilities are beautiful and comfortable. I love not being rushed through appointments to meet a quota. I feel heard and understood. My other doctors have made me feel like my issues are in my head. Well, my in depth blood work panel says otherwise. Christin was very thorough during my intake appointment and made sure all of my concerns were addressed. Buddy has been great for Chiropractic care. The practice offers a large variety of treatment options worth checking out. Invest in your health before it’s too late!
