There’s something comforting about a classic chicken dinner, especially when it’s elevated with fresh herbs and citrus. This recipe brings together juicy chicken, tender squash, and caramelized red onion, all brightened with lemon for a burst of flavor. It’s a balanced meal with protein, fiber, and phytonutrients, perfect for fueling a busy weeknight without weighing you down. And since it all roasts on one sheet pan, cleanup is as easy as the cooking.

Most of the time, inflammation is invisible—but if you’ve ever dealt with joint pain, stiffness, fatigue, or brain fog, you’ve felt its effects. Chronic inflammation is one of the root drivers of the conditions I see most often in my practice, from autoimmune issues to heart disease and cognitive decline.
To target inflammation at the source, I often recommend Sunlighten’s mPulse Smart Sauna. It combines all three infrared wavelengths with red light therapy to reduce inflammation where it starts. The gentle heat boosts circulation, calms the nervous system, eases pain, and supports natural healing to help your body recover and build resilience.
Backed by science and innovation, it’s a tool I trust and recommend for anyone who wants to protect mobility, reduce discomfort, and restore energy.
