Hobdari Family Health Dr Hobdari’s philosophy relies on “understanding the challenges of today’s life style that impact each patient and is the key to a successful treatment.”

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month 🎀

DIM (diindolylmethane) is a natural compound formed from compounds found in cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower, and Brussels sprouts.

Research suggests DIM can influence how the body metabolizes estrogen, shifting estrogen metabolism toward pathways that have been studied in relation to breast health.

This may be especially relevant after menopause, when estrone becomes the predominant circulating estrogen.

But an important distinction: while DIM can influence estrogen metabolism, research has not established that DIM prevents breast cancer.

And no supplement replaces appropriate breast cancer screening. Staying up to date with your mammogram remains one of the most important steps you can take for your breast health.

At Hobdari Wellness, we can help recommend the right DIM brand and dosing for you—and make sure your mammogram is ordered and up to date.

From the COVER of Southwest Florida's Health & Wellness Magazine - October 2026! ✨

“The Patient Wanted to Play Tennis Again. I Wanted to Know Why He Couldn't."

This one story says it all about how we practice medicine.

When a patient told me his tennis game was getting harder and he was short of breath, someone told him it was "just getting older."

We listened deeper. We looked at the whole person. A cardiac evaluation found serious coronary disease - he ultimately needed four stents.

For 27+ years as a physician, I've believed this: When you tell me something has changed, I pay attention.

It's not about hype. It's about Holistic Healing, Not Hype. Looking at your history, your labs, your symptoms, and your goals - together.

So grateful to be featured in this month's Health & Wellness Magazine sharing our philosophy.

Is magnesium the missing mineral—or just hype? ✨

Magnesium plays an essential role in muscle and nerve function, bone health, blood sugar regulation, and heart rhythm. But poor sleep, fatigue, or muscle cramps don’t automatically mean you need a supplement.

The right form and dose depend on your symptoms, medications, medical history, and kidney function. More isn’t always better—and taking too much can cause unwanted or even serious effects.

At Hobdari Wellness, we take a personalized, medically guided approach to supplementation—helping you choose what is appropriate for your body.

Glutathione is one of my favorite antioxidants—and there’s fascinating science behind this tiny molecule. 🧬

Often called the “master antioxidant,” glutathione is produced naturally by our cells and plays a central role in maintaining redox balance, protecting cells from oxidative stress, supporting detoxification pathways, and regulating immune function. (PubMed⁠)

🔬 For the curious, here’s some of the research:

In a 6-month randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, 54 healthy adults received either 250 mg or 1,000 mg of oral glutathione daily or placebo.

At the higher dose, glutathione levels increased by approximately 30–35% in red blood cells, plasma, and lymphocytes and by 260% in cells from the lining of the mouth after six months.

Researchers also found evidence of reduced oxidative stress, and at three months, natural-killer-cell cytotoxicity was more than 2× higher than placebo in the high-dose group. (PubMed⁠)

Research also shows that glutathione is deeply involved in mitochondrial function, cellular signaling, detoxification, and immune regulation. But an important distinction: that biology does not mean glutathione has been proven to treat every condition associated with oxidative stress. Clinical outcomes, optimal dosing, and the best route of administration still require more research. (PubMed⁠)

At Hobdari Wellness, we’ve seen remarkable responses when glutathione is used appropriately, particularly as part of recovery and individualized wellness care.

Glutathione isn’t a miracle cure—but it is fascinating human biochemistry worth understanding.

Is NAD⁺ the power behind your cells—or just hype?

NAD⁺ is essential for cellular energy, metabolism, and repair, and your natural NAD⁺ levels may decline over time.
While it isn’t a miracle cure or a shortcut to reverse aging, medically supervised NAD⁺ may support vitality and overall well-being for appropriately selected patients.

At Hobdari Wellness, we look beyond the hype. Our NAD⁺ is sourced from an FDA-registered 503B compounding facility and administered under medical supervision as part of a personalized wellness plan.

Curious whether NAD⁺ is right for you? Contact our office to schedule a consultation.

Individual results vary. Medical evaluation required.

A very proud mommy moment ❤️🔬

So incredibly proud of my daughter Anna and excited to see her research officially published in the Journal of Emerging Investigators!

Maybe not the future Dr. Hobdari 😉 — but definitely a future filled with science, discovery, and possibilities all her own.

From published research to her next chapter at the University of Florida… I couldn’t be prouder. 🐊💙🧡

Her study explored the regenerative effects of turmeric and alpha-lipoic acid and found that turmeric significantly enhanced regeneration in the experimental model compared with the control.

Watching her curiosity turn into a research question—and then seeing her carry it through the scientific process all the way to publication—has been such a special experience as both her mom and a physician.

Congratulations, Anna! ❤️ Your hard work, curiosity, and dedication to science make me incredibly proud.

Your genetic test is not your whole health story. 🧬

Common MTHFR variants don’t automatically explain your symptoms—or mean you need lifelong supplements. You can still process folic acid.

Fatigue, anxiety, and hormone concerns deserve a proper evaluation and care that considers the whole you.

Clarity over confusion. Personalized care over one-size-fits-all protocols.
