Healthspan care for women
Changes in your weight, energy, strength, sleep, or laboratory results can feel disconnected. Root & Remedy Integrative Care helps you understand how those changes fit together and what deserves attention next.

Transcript, Healthspan on Your Terms
You do everything for everyone.
But lately, your body may feel different. Your energy dropped. Your weight changed. You do not feel as strong. Maybe your blood sugar or cholesterol is creeping up, or your labs keep coming back “normal” even though you know something has changed.
Here is what I want you to know. Your birthday tells you how many years you have lived. It does not tell you how your body is functioning right now.
At Root & Remedy Integrative Care, I look deeper, at your symptoms, your history, and more detailed lab testing, including an estimated biological-age reference, to make some of those invisible changes easier to see.
So we know where to focus first, and what you can work on now to protect your strength, energy, and health for the years ahead.
That is healthspan on your terms.
Licensed care · nine states
Individualized clinical care is available to women physically located in AZ, CO, FL, ID, KY, MT, OR, WA, and WY. The Metabolic Defense Project is a nationwide wellness education, coaching, and community option available in all 50 states.
Start here
You do not have to know exactly what kind of care you need. Start with what is changing for you.
Not sure which path fits? Know Your Number is the simplest place to start.
Something has shifted, but you do not want another generic diet or a plan built around the scale alone. You want to understand what may be driving the change and what deserves attention first.
This sounds like me → I am taking a GLP-1Support your nutrition, muscle, strength, and metabolic health while staying on the medication, or build the foundations you may need before and during a transition off. You can keep your own prescriber, or have Sheri Erwin, DNP, APRN, FNP-C, prescribe and manage an FDA-approved branded GLP-1 as part of your care when it is clinically appropriate.
This sounds like me → I want the whole pictureYou are tired of treating each symptom as a separate problem. You want one clinician to connect what is happening now and build a plan around the whole picture.
This sounds like me → I am thinking aheadFamily history or changes in your health have made prevention feel more urgent. You want to understand what can be measured, what may be modifiable, and what deserves closer attention.
This sounds like me →Still unsure? Take the two-question quiz.
Recommended when you want a clearer picture
Your birthday tells you how many years you have lived. Your estimated biological-age reference gives us another lens on how your body is functioning today, and a number we can follow alongside the metabolic, cardiovascular, and other markers we are working on together.
It is not a diagnosis or a prediction of how long you will live, and a change in the number does not prove that aging has been reversed. I use it as one more reference point to help make your health trajectory easier to see and follow over time.
Know Your Number $299
Two visits, your Healthspan Core Panel, and your estimated biological age included.
Already have recent labs from the last 90 days? Bring them for $199 →
Around 45 biomarkers in your Healthspan Core Panel:
Each result is read against your optimal targets, the levels associated with feeling and functioning well, which are usually tighter than a standard lab’s broad “normal.” That includes markers many basic panels leave out, like the hormones behind appetite, so early shifts can show up sooner.
No obligation to continue. You keep your lab results, your estimated biological age, and the two or three priorities we identify.
Already know you want active, structured care? You may enroll directly in the Metabolic Healthspan Reset.
If you enter an eligible focused program within 30 days, your $299 Know Your Number fee is credited toward that program. Follow-up testing varies by program.
Available only to women physically located in one of the nine states where Sheri Erwin, DNP, APRN, FNP-C, is licensed. The Quest and Labcorp locations are simply where your labs are drawn within those states.

The Metabolic Defense ProjectThe bigger picture
Lifespan is the number of years you live. Healthspan is how many of those years you remain strong, capable, clear, engaged, and able to do what matters to you.
The goal is not to chase youth or promise that aging can be stopped. It is to understand what is changing now, respond to important risks, and build the physical and metabolic capacity that supports your life for decades.
Where we often begin
Metabolic changes may first show up as shifts in weight, energy, appetite, strength, blood sugar, cholesterol, or other laboratory patterns. But those patterns do not exist in isolation. Effective healthspan care looks at what they connect to and what they may affect over time.
Understand patterns involving blood sugar, insulin regulation, lipids, appetite, inflammation, weight, and energy so the plan addresses more than the number on the scale.
The outcomeBuild greater metabolic stability and a clearer understanding of what your body needs.
Muscle and bone influence strength, balance, metabolic health, and the ability to remain independent and active.
The outcomeSupport the strength and physical capacity that allow you to keep doing what you love.
Hormonal transitions, thyroid patterns, digestion, sleep, stress, and nutrition can all influence how a woman feels and functions.
The outcomeConnect symptoms that may have been evaluated separately and build a more complete plan.
Family history, laboratory patterns, lifestyle, and existing conditions can help identify what deserves attention before it becomes a larger problem.
The outcomeUnderstand the risks you can address now and create a more intentional plan for the years ahead.
What you want back
Maybe you want more energy. To feel stronger. To stop wondering why your weight or metabolism suddenly feels harder to manage. To know whether your hormones or thyroid are part of the picture, instead of guessing.
Maybe you want to understand what your numbers are actually telling you before blood sugar, cholesterol, muscle loss, or family history becomes a bigger concern.
Or maybe you simply want one clinician who can look across all of it with you.
This is about understanding what you can influence now, so you can protect your energy, strength, metabolic health, and freedom for the years ahead.
You do not have to be trying to lose weight to benefit from this care.
This is the goal
That is the healthspan outcome behind the laboratory testing, nutrition plans, strength work, and clinical decisions.

Healthcare should be about more than managing disease. It should help you understand your health, recognize future risks, and build a plan that supports your healthspan, not just your lifespan.

Board-Certified Family Nurse Practitioner
I created Root & Remedy Integrative Care because women deserve more than being told that every concern is separate or that nothing is wrong because a result falls inside a reference range.
My work is to connect what is happening now with the health you are building for the years ahead. I combine conventional clinical training with functional and integrative approaches to evaluate symptoms, laboratory patterns, health history, lifestyle, and future risk as parts of one picture.
In their words
“Sheri is a wonderful person and provider. She has always given me individualized care and personal attention. She is knowledgeable and friendly and wants those she cares for to be their healthiest selves. Her vast experience makes her an invaluable resource for anyone's medical needs.”
“Sheri has helped us several times with research based medical advice and to prep medically for travel. She is always prompt, professional, and has a very friendly bedside manner. I would trust her with my care and my spouse's care as needed.”
Is this the right fit?
Care here is for women who want to understand their own health and act on it. To save you time, here is who it fits and who it does not.
Not sure where to begin?
Answer where you live and what's on your mind, and you'll get pointed to the specific program built for that, not a generic list. No email required.
Good questions
No. Root & Remedy Integrative Care is a healthspan practice with a strong focus on metabolic health because metabolism influences energy, strength, body composition, cardiovascular risk, and how the body changes over time. Weight may be one part of the picture, but it is never the only outcome we follow.
No. Know Your Number is the recommended starting point when you want objective information or are unsure which level of care fits. If you already know you want active, structured care, you may enroll directly in the Metabolic Healthspan Reset. Continuing memberships are available to established patients when clinically appropriate.
Estimated biological age uses selected blood biomarkers to provide a visual reference for how certain metabolic, cardiovascular, and inflammatory patterns compare with chronological age. It is not a diagnosis or prediction. It gives us a baseline and another way to follow relevant markers over time.
Both work. You can keep your own prescriber, who stays responsible for the medication, while Root & Remedy Integrative Care supports your nutrition, muscle, strength, metabolic patterns, laboratory monitoring, side effects, and longer-term health plan. When it is clinically appropriate, Sheri Erwin, DNP, APRN, FNP-C, can also prescribe and manage an FDA-approved branded GLP-1 as part of your care.
Individualized telehealth medical care is available to women physically located in Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Idaho, Kentucky, Montana, Oregon, Washington, or Wyoming. The Metabolic Defense Project is a separate nationwide wellness education and coaching program available in all 50 states.
Know Your Number is $299 with laboratory testing included, or $199 when you bring qualifying recent comprehensive labs. The Metabolic Healthspan Reset is $3,200, with a four-payment option of $800 per month. Continuing care is available to established patients when clinically appropriate, with complete pricing shown on the Programs page.
Whether you are concerned about changes in your metabolism, taking a GLP-1, trying to understand whole-body symptoms, or thinking more seriously about future risk, you do not have to determine the next step alone. Let's identify the starting point that fits your health, priorities, and desired level of support.
