Panka Natural Health

If you live in Minnesota, there's a reasonable chance you're low in Vitamin D if you haven't been supplementing, especially coming out of winter. 

Vitamin D isn't just a bone health nutrient. It plays a role in immune regulation, mood, cardiovascular health, inflammation, and more. Research consistently links vitamin D deficiency to increased risk of a range of chronic conditions. 

The optimal range is not the same as the "normal" lab range. Many labs flag deficiency only when levels drop very low. We look at a broader functional picture. 

Vitamin D dosing is not one-size-fits-all. 

Your lab values, genetics, and health goals all factor into what the right supplementation looks like for you. 

Before you grab a bottle off the shelf, it's worth knowing your actual number. We include vitamin D as part of our comprehensive lab testing.

We've been heads-down taking care of patients, which is exactly where we want to be. But we've missed showing up here, and have a lot to share this year!

We're Dr. Haley and Dr. Jacob Panka, naturopathic doctors based in Hopkins, MN.

We founded Panka Natural Health in 2018 with the goal to offer the kind of thorough, personalized care that the conventional system rarely has time for.

We take longer appointments. We ask more questions. We look at the full picture.

We're out of network providers, which means we work for you, not an insurance company's timeline.

We're back here to share what we know, what we do, and why it matters. Glad to be back! 💚
