108. Hormones, Stress & Weight Gain: How the HPATG Axis Impacts Metabolism, Fatigue & Perimenopause Symptoms Mar 11, 2025

Struggling with fatigue, brain fog, weight loss resistance, or unpredictable digestion? It might not just be stress—it could be your hormones working against you. If you’ve ever wondered why perimenopause seems to zap your energy or why your metabolism feels sluggish despite your best efforts, this episode is for you.

In today’s episode of A Little Bit Healthier, we’re kicking off the Hormone Series by breaking down the HPA-TG Axis—your body’s command center for hormone balance. This system influences everything from stress regulation to metabolism, thyroid function, and reproductive health. Yet, most of us were never taught how it all works or what we can do to support it.

I’ll walk you through the missing links between your hormones, gut health, and energy levels—and why chronic stress might be sabotaging your thyroid and metabolism without you realizing it.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

What the HPA-TG Axis is and why it holds the key to hormone balance, metabolism, and digestion
The surprising way stress impacts your thyroid, leading to fatigue, sluggish metabolism, and weight gain
How high insulin levels can trigger hormone imbalances, making perimenopause symptoms worse
The simple lifestyle shifts that can help regulate cortisol, balance blood sugar, and support digestion for better energy

When your hormones are in sync, your body thrives. When they’re out of balance, you feel exhausted, struggle to lose weight, deal with bloating, and experience mood swings that seem impossible to control.

We’ll cover why cortisol is stealing your progesterone, how insulin resistance contributes to weight gain and PCOS, and what you can do to start regaining control over your energy, metabolism, and gut health.

107. The Power of Hypnosis: Reduce Anxiety, Rewire Your Mind & Transform Your Health with Sara Raymond Mar 04, 2025

Unlocking the Power of Hypnosis for Mental Health and Self-Discovery

Are you constantly striving for the next achievement yet feeling unfulfilled? Do you battle anxiety or self-criticism that seems impossible to break? Today's episode explores how hypnosis can be a powerful tool for accessing the subconscious mind and creating lasting change.

I spoke with Sara, a hypnotherapist who discovered hypnosis during her own burnout recovery. Like many high achievers, she had all the boxes checked for success but was constantly seeking the next level, leading to exhaustion. This personal journey eventually led her to help others through hypnotherapy.

Key Points from Our Conversation:

What is Hypnosis? A meditative state that allows access below the logical mind to reach the subconscious where emotions, beliefs, and past experiences reside - formed before our logical mind developed.
Stage Hypnosis vs. Therapeutic Hypnosis Entertainment hypnosis differs from therapeutic practices. No one can be made to do anything they don't want to do. Therapeutic hypnosis focuses on healing rather than entertainment.
Working with the Inner Critic Hypnosis identifies how your inner critic has been serving you (often as protection) and allows you to "negotiate" with it, releasing its hold to develop healthier patterns.
Understanding Anxiety Many use worry as a form of protection or control. Hypnosis helps recognize this pattern and create space to choose different responses.
Self-Forgiveness Process Hypnotherapy reveals childhood beliefs (like "I must achieve to be lovable") that drive adult behaviors, facilitating self-forgiveness and reframing. Physical Health Benefits When we release limiting patterns, physical changes follow—shoulders relaxing, breathing improving, and nervous system shifting from stress to relaxation.
Practical Self-Hypnosis Tips Start with awareness without judgment, identify how patterns have been serving you, and create interruption cues to break patterns and choose new responses.

Transform Your Patterns and Beliefs

Working with our subconscious through hypnosis can break through barriers that talk therapy or medication alone might not address. By understanding the positive intentions behind our patterns, we can create healthier alternatives.

Building new neural pathways takes practice. As Sara mentions, when old thoughts return, we simply redirect to the new pattern until it becomes more familiar than the old one.

106. The Science of Skin Aging & Peptides: How to Reverse the Clock with Alessandra Zonari Feb 25, 2025

Are you frustrated with trying countless skincare products that promise anti-aging results but don't seem to work? In today's episode, I'm sitting down with scientist and skincare innovator Alessandra Zonari to uncover the fascinating connection between skin health and overall longevity. We explore how our skin's aging process starts at the cellular level and why addressing "zombie cells" could be the key to maintaining youthful, healthy skin. Whether you're dealing with premature aging, inflammation, or just want to understand how to better care for your skin, this conversation reveals groundbreaking research about peptides and their role in skin regeneration.

Key Points:

Understanding the skin as our largest organ and its crucial role in overall health - Alessandra explains how skin inflammation can contribute to age-related diseases and why maintaining skin health is about more than just aesthetics
The science behind skin aging - Learn when major changes start occurring (around age 30) and how accumulating cellular damage leads to visible signs of aging like sagging and thinning skin
Demystifying peptides - Get the facts about these powerful molecules, how they work to repair skin damage, and why not all peptide products are created equal when it comes to absorption
The truth about microneedling - Discover how this technique can enhance product absorption and what needle size is safe for at-home use
The "zombie cell" phenomenon - Understanding what these senescent cells are and how they contribute to skin aging and inflammation
Practical skincare solutions - Learn about targeted products that address skin aging at the cellular level and how to incorporate them into your routine

The science of skincare is evolving, and it's clear that taking care of our skin goes far beyond surface-level treatments. By understanding the cellular mechanisms of aging and implementing targeted solutions, we can not only improve our skin's appearance but potentially impact our overall health and longevity.

105. The Hidden Hormone Havoc: Wrecking Your Mood, Sleep & Energy with Dr. Carrie Jones Feb 18, 2025

Have you ever noticed that your allergy symptoms seem to flare up at certain times in your cycle? Or that your migraines, fatigue, or skin issues seem to follow a pattern each month? It turns out, your hormones and histamine levels are more connected than you might think.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Carrie Jones, an internationally recognized expert in women’s health and hormones, to break down this fascinating link. We uncover how estrogen affects histamine, why perimenopause can send symptoms into overdrive, and what you can do to regain balance.

If you’ve been struggling with cyclical symptoms and haven’t been able to pinpoint the cause, this episode is a must-listen.

Key Takeaways:

Hormones and Histamine: The Surprising Connection Estrogen plays a direct role in how your body processes histamine, which is why some women feel more allergic, itchy, or inflamed around ovulation and their cycle.
Why Your Symptoms Fluctuate Throughout the Month Your hormones shift every single day, influencing histamine levels. This explains why you might feel great one week and miserable the next.
Perimenopause and the Hormone Rollercoaster As you approach menopause, estrogen and progesterone become unpredictable, leading to increased histamine-related issues like headaches, fatigue, skin reactions, and sleep disturbances.
Migraines, PMS, and the Histamine Link Many hormonal migraines are tied to histamine spikes. If you get migraines around ovulation or before your period, histamine might be a key player.
How to Test for Histamine and Hormone Imbalances From symptom tracking to blood tests and DUTCH testing, here’s how to uncover whether histamine is driving your hormonal chaos.
The Role of Progesterone in Keeping Histamine in Check Low progesterone means estrogen and histamine can run wild, creating a cascade of inflammation and symptoms. Supporting progesterone levels can be a game-changer.
Practical Steps to Balance Hormones and Reduce Histamine Symptoms Learn the key nutrients and lifestyle changes—like magnesium, zinc, and toxin reduction—that can help regulate both hormones and histamine for long-term relief.

Understanding the connection between histamine and hormones is empowering. If you’ve been dealing with unexplained symptoms like migraines, itchy skin, bloating, or fatigue that seem to cycle with your hormones, you’re not imagining it—there’s a real biological link. By identifying patterns, testing the right markers, and making targeted adjustments, you can start feeling better.

103. EMF Protection: How to Reduce Exposure Without Sacrificing Technology with Nick Pineault Feb 04, 2025

Are EMFs Secretly Affecting Your Health? Here’s What You Need to Know

Have you ever wondered why you’re feeling more fatigued, experiencing brain fog, or struggling with disrupted sleep despite doing “all the right things” for your health? The answer might lie in a source you can’t see: electromagnetic fields (EMFs). In today’s episode, I’m joined by Nick “The EMF Guy” Pineault, a leading advocate for safe technology and author of The Non-Tinfoil Guide to EMFs. Together, we’re unpacking the hidden impacts of EMF exposure on your body, how they tie into issues like mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS), and practical strategies to protect yourself.

If you’ve ever felt powerless against the invisible wave of modern technology, this conversation will empower you with knowledge and actionable steps to reduce EMF exposure without sacrificing the convenience of your devices.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

What Are EMFs and Why Should You Care? Nick explains the basics of EMFs, or what he calls "electro-pollution," and how these invisible frequencies impact your health at the cellular level, causing oxidative stress and potentially triggering conditions like MCAS.
The Science Behind EMF Sensitivity Discover how EMFs disrupt voltage-gated calcium channels in your cells, leading to oxidative stress, and why this matters for those already managing chronic health issues.
Are EMFs the New Smoking? Learn why some experts compare EMF exposure to the early days of smoking and the importance of rethinking our relationship with modern technology.
How EMFs Trigger Histamine Release Nick shares surprising research linking EMF exposure to mast cell activation and histamine release, even in individuals without MCAS.
Simple Steps to Reduce EMF Exposure at Home

Turn off Wi-Fi and put devices on airplane mode overnight.
Use wired connections for laptops and tablets instead of Wi-Fi.
Avoid keeping devices like phones or smartwatches close to your body.

Why an EMF Vacation Could Be a Game-Changer Find out how spending time away from high-EMF environments can help you identify symptoms and regain a sense of wellness.
Practical Tips for Families and Kids Nick emphasizes the importance of reducing EMF exposure for children, whose developing bodies are more sensitive, and offers tools like pre-downloading content and hardwiring tablets.

Key Takeaways for Your Wellness Journey

Electro-pollution is a modern-day health challenge, but the good news is that small, intentional changes can significantly reduce your exposure. Whether you’re addressing sleep issues, fatigue, or MCAS, minimizing EMFs could unlock another layer of healing for your body. By understanding the science behind EMF impacts and taking actionable steps, you can safeguard your health without giving up the conveniences of technology.

Ready to take back control of your health? Start small—switch off your Wi-Fi at night or invest in a wired connection—and notice the difference it makes. Let’s reclaim our vitality, one EMF-free step at a time.

102. Ayurvedic Healing for Modern Health – Ancient Wisdom Meets Science with Dr. Monish Bhanote Jan 28, 2025

Understanding Ayurveda for Better Health and Balance

Are you feeling fatigued, battling digestive issues, or struggling with hormonal imbalances? Do you find modern medicine's one-size-fits-all solutions frustrating and ineffective? If so, you’re not alone. Many people are turning to ancient healing systems like Ayurveda for answers. Ayurveda, a 5,000-year-old holistic health system, can help you understand your body's unique constitution, or dosha, to restore balance and vitality. This episode dives into the connection between Ayurveda, gut health, and histamine imbalances, offering actionable tips to bring your body back into harmony.

Key Points

What is Ayurveda? Ayurveda is a 5,000-year-old holistic health system focusing on balance in three doshas—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. These doshas represent combinations of the five elements: space, air, fire, water, and earth. When imbalanced, they can lead to health issues like irritability, digestive problems, or sluggishness.
Understanding Your Dosha and Constitution Everyone is born with a specific dosha composition, influenced by genetics and environment. This section discusses characteristics of each dosha, such as fiery Pitta, airy Vata, and grounded Kapha, and their roles in physical and mental health.
The Gut Health and Histamine Connection Ayurvedic principles focus on digestion (Agni) as a cornerstone of health. Poor digestion leads to toxin build-up (Ama), which can trigger histamine reactions. Learn how Ayurveda addresses gut issues through dietary and lifestyle adjustments.
Foods for Balancing Doshas and Reducing Histamine

Pitta (Fire and Water): Avoid spicy, oily, and acidic foods. Opt for cooling options like cucumber and watermelon.
Vata (Air and Space): Emphasize grounding, cooked foods like root vegetables and soups.
Kapha (Water and Earth): Incorporate lighter, spiced meals to boost digestion.

Ayurvedic Herbs and Lifestyle Practices Explore how herbs like tulsi, ashwagandha, and coriander support balance. Learn lifestyle tips such as stress management, detox practices, and how ancient Ayurvedic wisdom aligns with modern functional medicine.

Balancing your doshas with Ayurveda offers a personalized, holistic approach to health. By understanding your unique constitution, you can manage issues like fatigue, gut imbalances, and hormonal disruptions naturally. Ayurveda isn’t just about treating symptoms—it’s about aligning with your body’s natural rhythm for long-term wellness.

Curious about what your dosha is or how Ayurvedic practices can benefit your health? Tune in to discover actionable insights that can help you regain balance and vitality today!

101. Low-Histamine Cooking Made Easy with a Celebrity Chef James Barry Jan 21, 2025

Are you tired of feeling restricted by your food choices due to histamine intolerance? Does the idea of managing your symptoms without sacrificing flavor seem impossible? In this episode, we’re tackling the Low Histamine Diet head-on with culinary expert James Barry.

We explore how to eat delicious, satisfying meals that support your health, without the overwhelm. If you’ve ever struggled with leftovers, processed foods, or the tricky task of avoiding high-histamine ingredients, this conversation is for you.

James, a celebrity chef with over 16 years of experience, shares his journey and practical tips for navigating the world of food sensitivities. From real, unprocessed foods to the hidden pitfalls of “all-natural” labels, this episode dives deep into what it truly means to cook for health. Let’s break down the myths and arm you with actionable strategies to enjoy food again, even with histamine intolerance.

Key Points:

The truth about processed foods and why they’re sabotaging your health goals We discuss the importance of eating real ingredients instead of processed products. Misleading claims on food packaging can hide unwanted additives, and even “organic” options might still come with chemical coatings.
Understanding the histamine load: What foods should you avoid and why? We break down the confusing list of high-histamine foods. Things like ripe fruit and processed meats often raise questions, and we share tips on how to identify which ones might be triggering issues for you.
How to manage histamine intolerance without feeling overwhelmed We talk about the mindset shift needed to avoid the trap of perfectionism. It’s about listening to your body and becoming a “food detective” to figure out what works and what doesn’t—rather than trying to follow rigid rules.
Practical kitchen tips for a low-histamine diet We cover strategies to prevent histamine build-up, such as handling leftovers quickly and focusing on fresh ingredients. Slow eating and mindful meal prep can also make a big difference in how you feel afterward.
Navigating the grocery store with histamine intolerance: What to buy and what to avoid We discuss the importance of reading labels and staying aware of unregulated flavor additives. Making thoughtful, informed decisions helps ensure you choose foods that support rather than sabotage your health.
Why local sourcing matters for managing histamine intolerance We explain how buying directly from local farmers can significantly reduce the histamine load. When you know exactly where your food comes from, it’s easier to trust what goes into it—and that extra step can be well worth the effort.

99. Build Lasting Habits – Effective Alternatives to New Year's Resolutions Jan 07, 2025

Are you tired of setting lofty New Year’s resolutions that seem impossible to stick with? You’re not alone. Many of us aim high at the start of the year, only to feel defeated by February. What if the key to lasting change wasn’t about doing everything at once but creating small, buildable habits instead? Today, we’ll explore actionable steps you can start right now to create a foundation for healthier living, from assessing your pantry to mastering deep breathing techniques. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by the idea of transforming your health, this episode is for you.

Key Points:

Understanding the Problem with Lofty Goals We often set ourselves up for failure by choosing goals that are too big or unsustainable. Here’s why starting small matters and how it prevents burnout.
The Power of Buildable Habits Learn why layering one small habit onto another leads to lasting change and how this method can work for your health transformation journey.
Step 1: A Pantry Reset Discover the hidden culprits in your pantry—like high fructose corn syrup—and how simple swaps can make a significant impact on your health without feeling restrictive.
Step 2: Deep Breathing for Stress and Health Stress impacts everything from digestion to sleep. I’ll teach you a two-minute daily breathing exercise to activate your parasympathetic nervous system and reduce cortisol.
Step 3: Adding More Vegetables Why vegetables are a cornerstone of any health plan. Tips for sneaking more servings into your day and how this one change can shift your overall diet.
Step 4: Movement That Works for You Instead of aiming for a 6-day-a-week workout plan, start small. We’ll discuss accessible ways to incorporate movement into your life, even during the winter months.

Transforming your health doesn’t mean turning your life upside down overnight. By focusing on buildable habits, you can create a sustainable path to well-being that fits seamlessly into your life. Whether it’s taking two minutes to breathe deeply, adding an extra serving of vegetables, or evaluating your pantry for healthier swaps, small changes lead to big results. Remember, every step forward, no matter how small, is a step toward a healthier, happier you.

98. Understanding Complex Chronic Illness and How to Incorporate Peptides with Dr. Nafysa Parpia Dec 31, 2024

Have you ever felt overwhelmed by ongoing, mysterious symptoms, only to be told your condition doesn't fit a neat diagnosis? If you’re someone grappling with chronic illness, you’ve probably experienced the frustration of being treated as just another case of "chronic fatigue" or "fibromyalgia." But what if I told you that there’s more going on beneath the surface, and that your body's multiple systems are involved in ways conventional medicine may not fully understand? That’s what today’s episode is all about. We're diving into the root causes behind chronic illness.

If you’re tired of searching for answers and ready to explore the complex web of infections, toxins, immune dysregulation, and even trauma that might be contributing to your symptoms, you’re in the right place.

Key Points:

Why Chronic Illness Is Often Misunderstood Modern medicine frequently approaches illness with a one-diagnosis-fits-all mindset. Chronic illnesses like Lyme, fibromyalgia, and long COVID involve multiple systems and causes. Treating these conditions requires more than a single treatment plan.
Five Root Causes of Chronic Illness We explain the five major causes contributing to chronic illness: infections, toxins, structural issues, diet, and lifestyle (including trauma). These are not isolated factors but interact to create a unique health profile for each person.
Why Inflammation Is Not Always Temporary Inflammation is meant to be a short-term response, but in many chronic illnesses, it becomes an ongoing issue, causing more harm than healing. This continuous inflammation is a hallmark of conditions like MCAS.
The Cell Danger Response and Genetic Factors Chronic illness often involves what’s called the "Cell Danger Response," where the body gets stuck in a protective state due to past trauma or exposure to toxins. Dr. Naviaux’s research reveals that different people with the same diagnosis may have entirely different biochemical and genetic pathways leading to their symptoms.

Chronic illnesses are far more complex than many are led to believe. Understanding that there’s no one-size-fits-all solution is the first step toward healing. Each person’s chronic illness journey is unique, with multiple root causes and complex triggers at play. By identifying these factors and addressing them holistically, we can begin to reverse the immune dysregulation that drives inflammation and worsens symptoms.

So, if you're tired of quick fixes that don’t work and want to address your chronic illness at its core, this episode is for you. Let's get to the root of your health challenges together, and find lasting solutions that are as unique as you are.

97. What is MCAS? Everything You Need to Know About Mast Cell Activation with Dr. Tania Dempsey Dec 24, 2024

Are you or someone you love struggling with mysterious, multi-system symptoms—ranging from skin rashes and digestive issues to migraines and unexplained fatigue? You might have been searching for answers but keep hitting dead ends. If you’ve ever wondered if these diverse and seemingly unrelated symptoms could be connected, it might be time to consider Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS). MCAS is a condition that affects up to 20% of the population, yet it remains underdiagnosed and misunderstood. In today’s episode, I’ll be walking you through the ins and outs of MCAS, from how it's diagnosed to the practical steps you can take for treatment. If you're feeling frustrated by traditional medicine’s inability to connect the dots on your health issues, this episode will provide some much-needed clarity.

Let’s explore how MCAS could be the missing link in your health journey and what you can do about it.

Key Points:

What is MCAS and Why It's Misunderstood MCAS is a multi-system inflammatory condition affecting various parts of the body, causing symptoms like skin rashes, digestive issues, and fatigue. Often misunderstood, MCAS can go undiagnosed for years as patients seek answers from multiple specialists.
Dr. Dempsey's Journey to MCAS Expertise Dr. Tania Dempsey shares her personal journey into recognizing MCAS in her patients, explaining how her curiosity and persistence led her to uncover MCAS as a common, yet often overlooked condition affecting many of her patients.
How MCAS is Diagnosed: Laboratory Markers and Clinical Features Diagnosing MCAS requires looking at specific clinical features and laboratory markers. Blood and urine tests can reveal mast cell mediators, while biopsies from gastrointestinal scoping procedures can show elevated mast cells in tissue samples. This segment discusses the complexities and difficulties in obtaining a definitive diagnosis.
The Role of Triggers in MCAS Identifying triggers is crucial in managing MCAS. Dr. Dempsey explains how some triggers can be environmental, while others may be internal, making them difficult to pinpoint. Understanding your specific triggers is key to effective treatment.
Treatment Options for MCAS: Antihistamines and Beyond The first line of treatment often includes antihistamines—both H1 and H2 blockers. This segment covers how trial and error is often needed to find the right combination for each individual. Natural options like Vitamin C and quercetin are also explored, offering listeners alternatives to pharmaceutical interventions.
Living with MCAS: Individualized Treatment Approaches One size does not fit all when it comes to managing MCAS. Dr. Dempsey highlights the importance of a personalized approach, where patients must try different treatments systematically to find what works for them. The need for patience and persistence in the journey to wellness is emphasized.

Mast Cell Activation Syndrome might be the missing piece in your complex health puzzle. Whether you're dealing with unexplained chronic symptoms or feeling frustrated by a lack of answers, understanding MCAS could bring you closer to relief. The key takeaway from today’s episode is that while diagnosing and treating MCAS can be challenging, it is possible—and it starts with understanding your body’s unique triggers. With a combination of personalized treatments, patience, and persistence, you can regain control of your health.

If any of this sounds familiar, I encourage you to explore MCAS further and, if necessary, find a practitioner knowledgeable in its diagnosis and treatment. Let's continue this journey toward better health—one piece of the puzzle at a time.

96. Heal Your Gut, Reduce Inflammation: Key Strategies with Dr. David Jockers Dec 17, 2024

Are you dealing with persistent symptoms like digestive issues, inflammation, or even migraines that just won't go away, despite making all the "right" lifestyle changes? In this episode, I sat down with Dr. David Jockers to discuss a critical but often overlooked root cause of many chronic health problems: leaky gut.

Leaky gut, also known as intestinal permeability, is when the tight junctions in your gut lining weaken and allow undigested food particles, toxins, and bacteria to leak into your bloodstream. This triggers inflammation throughout the body and can wreak havoc on your immune system, leading to a cascade of symptoms that may seem unrelated to gut health at first glance.

Dr. Jockers breaks down how this process works and explains why healing your gut is essential for overcoming conditions like histamine intolerance and mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS). If you’ve been experiencing strange or hard-to-explain symptoms, this episode could offer the insight you need to get to the root of the problem.

Key Points:

The Basics of Leaky Gut and Why It Matters Leaky gut occurs when the gut lining becomes compromised, allowing harmful substances to pass into the bloodstream, triggering inflammation and immune reactions throughout the body.
The Gut-Immune System Connection Dr. Jockers emphasizes how 70-80% of your immune system is located in the gut, making gut health a crucial factor in overall immune function and resilience.
Foods and Toxins That Contribute to Leaky Gut Learn about common dietary triggers and environmental toxins that damage the gut lining, including processed foods, pesticides, and chronic stress.
The Role of Histamine in Leaky Gut and MCAS High histamine levels can exacerbate leaky gut by increasing inflammation and further breaking down the gut lining, creating a vicious cycle of symptoms.
Practical Tips for Healing Your Gut Discover simple but effective strategies for repairing your gut lining, including nutrient-dense diets, stress management, and targeted supplements like digestive enzymes and probiotics.

Taking Control of Your Gut Health

Leaky gut is more than just a digestive issue—it can be the root cause of everything from chronic fatigue to migraines and autoimmune conditions. By addressing the underlying inflammation in your gut, you can begin to resolve these symptoms and take control of your health.

If you're ready to start healing your gut and breaking the cycle of chronic symptoms, listen to the full episode to get actionable steps that can make a real difference.

94. Is Your Lymphatic System Blocked? 4 Ways to Clear It Today with Kelly Kennedy Dec 03, 2024

Are you dealing with chronic pain, inflammation, or persistent health issues that just won’t go away, no matter what you try? It could be time to pay attention to your lymphatic system, the often-overlooked network responsible for clearing toxins and maintaining immune health. In this episode, we explore the importance of the lymphatic system, fascia, and energy medicine with Kelly Kennedy, also known as the "Lymph Queen." We dive deep into how proper lymph flow impacts tissue healing, detoxification, and overall wellness. If you've been searching for answers on how to relieve chronic symptoms or boost your immune system, this episode will guide you to understanding the body’s natural healing process.

Key Points

Understanding the Lymphatic System and Its Role in Healing Kelly Kennedy explains how the lymphatic system functions as the body’s filtration system, responsible for moving 80% of toxins and maintaining fluid balance. It plays a crucial role in immune responses and inflammation regulation.
The Relationship Between Fascia and Lymph Flow Fascia, the connective tissue in the body, can create "blockages" or adhesions that slow down lymphatic flow, leading to inflammation and pain. Kelly likens this to a river being blocked by debris, causing the flow to stagnate.
How Movement and Breath Support Lymphatic Drainage Since the lymphatic system lacks its own pump, Kelly emphasizes the importance of movement and conscious breathing to help circulate lymph fluid. Sedentary lifestyles and shallow breathing can cause fluid buildup and hinder detoxification.
Energy Medicine and Bioenergetics The episode delves into how the body communicates through energy and frequencies, with Kelly sharing her personal journey into understanding energy medicine. She highlights how every system in the body is interconnected through energy, and balancing this can aid healing.
Practical Exercises to Boost Lymphatic Flow Kelly shares simple lymphatic exercises, like pumping above the clavicle and gently pressing the Cisterna Chyli, to stimulate the body’s natural detox pathways. These exercises can be done at home to support overall health.

Understanding and optimizing your lymphatic system could be the missing piece in addressing chronic health issues, from inflammation to immune dysfunction. By incorporating simple lymphatic exercises, movement, and energy medicine into your routine, you can begin to relieve chronic symptoms and boost your body’s natural ability to heal. If you're struggling with lingering health problems, focusing on your lymph flow and fascia might be the key to unlocking better health.

93. Overactive Immune System: Causes and Calming Solutions with Dr. Aly Cohen Nov 26, 2024

Are you feeling constantly fatigued, battling unexplained allergies, or dealing with chronic inflammation that just won't quit? If so, your immune system might work against you rather than protect you. In this episode, we're diving deep into the intricacies of the immune system—specifically, how immune reactivity can lead to chronic inflammation, autoimmune conditions, and a host of seemingly unrelated symptoms.

Join me as I sit down with Dr. Aly Cohen, a leading expert in environmental health and autoimmune diseases, to uncover the root causes of immune system dysregulation and explore natural, actionable steps to regain balance in your health.

Key Points

Understanding the Immune System's Role in Chronic Conditions Dr. Cohen explains the different components of the immune system and how they are supposed to protect us. However, when the immune system becomes "pissed off," as she puts it, it can overreact, leading to a wide range of chronic health issues.
Environmental Factors: The Hidden Triggers From plastics to pesticides, environmental toxins are everywhere, and our immune systems haven't evolved to handle them.

90. How Trauma Affects Your Body And 4 Expert Ways to Fix It with Alex Howard Nov 05, 2024

Have you ever wondered why despite doing all the “right” things, your body still feels like it’s stuck? You might have made every effort to detox, eat clean, and even manage your stress, yet your body seems to be working against you. You’re not alone in this. It could be that your nervous system is playing a significant role in keeping your body in this cycle.

In this episode, we explore the profound connection between nervous system dysregulation, trauma, and chronic illness—particularly in relation to [Insert Keyword]. Together, we’ll break down what this means for your healing journey and how understanding this link could be the breakthrough you’ve been searching for. Our guest today is Alex Howard, a leading expert in trauma education and chronic illness recovery. We dive deep into how trauma can show up in subtle ways and how it leads to a dysregulated nervous system, impacting everything from immune function to your overall ability to heal.

If you’re ready to uncover the hidden pieces of the puzzle that might be holding you back, you’re in the right place.

Key Points:

What is trauma and how does it impact the nervous system? Alex defines trauma beyond the typical big events we think of. Trauma can be small, repeated experiences from childhood that leave echoes in our nervous system, which later affects our health.
The four stages of trauma impact: ECHO We break down the ECHO model—Events, Context, Homeostasis, and Outcomes—and how each stage influences the nervous system's ability to regulate and heal.
Why nervous system dysregulation can block your recovery If you're stuck despite multiple treatments, it might be because your nervous system is constantly in a fight-or-flight mode. This dysregulation keeps your body from healing as it should.
The importance of being the “captain of your own recovery ship” Taking charge of your healing process is essential. Alex emphasizes that while practitioners offer vital pieces of the puzzle, you are the one who navigates and brings everything together for true healing.
How resetting the nervous system can transform your health Alex shares his RESET framework for nervous system regulation, detailing how each step—Recognize, Examine, Stop, Emotions, and Transform—helps to shift your body out of survival mode.
The link between trauma and immune system function A dysregulated nervous system not only affects your emotional and mental well-being but also leads to an overreactive or underactive immune system, making conditions like [Insert Keyword] even harder to manage.

The journey to healing isn’t just about treating physical symptoms; it’s about addressing the root causes buried within the nervous system and the echoes of past trauma. As we’ve discussed, many people stuck in their recovery journey are unknowingly battling a dysregulated nervous system that keeps them in a state of stress and imbalance. By taking control and learning to reset your system, you can unlock a new level of healing and vitality.

Remember, the work isn’t always easy, but it’s worth it. Your nervous system holds the key to not just surviving, but thriving.

89. How to Leverage Earth's Elements For Better Health Chelsea Blackbird Oct 29, 2024

Are you constantly juggling various health supplements and diets, yet still not feeling your best? If you're searching for a deeper understanding of how natural elements like sunlight, water, and the earth itself can dramatically enhance your health, you're in the right place. Today, we're exploring how reconnecting with nature's basics can revolutionize our well-being.

Key Points:

The Power of Sunlight for Regulating Health Discover the vital role of morning sunlight in regulating our circadian rhythm, enhancing mood, and kickstarting our metabolism. Sunlight isn't just for light; it influences numerous biochemical processes essential for optimal health.
Hydration Beyond Drinking Water: The Role of Electrolytes While hydration is crucial, the quality of water and its electrolyte content can significantly affect how well our cells absorb and use this moisture. Learn about the impact of electrolytes on cellular function and how they contribute to overall hydration and vitality.
Grounding: Connecting with Earth to Improve Health Grounding or earthing is not just a trendy wellness term; it's a practice with profound health benefits. By making direct contact with the earth, we can stabilize our internal bioelectrical environment, which can reduce inflammation and enhance sleep.

Today's journey into natural health emphasizes that true well-being extends beyond diet and exercise. It's about harmonizing with the elemental forces that have sustained human health for millennia—sun, water, and earth. Embracing these elements can lead to significant improvements in energy levels, mood, and overall health. If you're intrigued by the idea of reducing your reliance on food for energy by integrating natural elements into your routine, start simple: morning sunlight exposure, proper hydration with electrolytes, and regular grounding sessions. Remember, reconnecting with nature isn't just about going back to the basics—it's about returning to a foundation that supports a vibrant, healthy life.

88. How to Control Blood Sugar Spikes and Prevent Diabetes with Dr. Beverly Yates Oct 22, 2024

Have you ever wondered why managing your blood sugar seems like an uphill battle, despite doing everything right? If you're living with diabetes, pre-diabetes, or elevated blood sugar and you’re feeling stuck, you're not alone. Diabetes can feel like a never-ending struggle, especially when other health conditions like inflammation or histamine intolerance come into play.

Today, we’re diving into a crucial but often overlooked connection—how inflammation and metabolic syndrome can all exacerbate blood sugar problems. You’ll learn actionable steps to help balance your blood sugar, lower inflammation, and ultimately feel more in control of your health.

Key Points

The Role of Inflammation in Diabetes: We discuss how inflammation, whether from chronic illness or environmental toxins like mold, can impact your metabolic health and lead to insulin resistance. Chronic inflammation worsens blood sugar regulation and contributes to insulin sensitivity issues.
Stress and Its Impact on Blood Sugar: Stress, whether from lifestyle factors or from juggling responsibilities, can lead to cortisol spikes that elevate blood sugar levels. We explore the link between stress and blood sugar and provide strategies to mitigate its effects on your health.
Managing Blood Sugar Through Diet: If you're struggling with limited food choices due to histamine intolerance, we share tips on how to manage blood sugar while avoiding high-histamine foods, salicylates, and oxalates. Learn how strategic dietary choices can help keep your blood sugar stable.
Using a Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM) to Track Your Progress: Learn about the benefits of using a CGM to get real-time data on how your diet and lifestyle impact your blood sugar levels. Using a CGM can also help you identify food intolerances that may be affecting your blood sugar control.

Balancing blood sugar and inflammation may seem overwhelming, but the truth is, it’s all connected. By taking small, actionable steps to reduce inflammation, manage stress, and tailor your diet, you can start to regain control over your health. Whether it’s using a CGM for better insights or focusing on anti-inflammatory practices, these tools can empower you to live better. Remember, it’s not about perfection; it’s about progress.

87. Thyroid Truths Unveiled: 3 Common Mistakes and How to Fix Them with Dr. Eric Balcavage Oct 15, 2024

Have you ever wondered if your sluggish metabolism, unexplained weight gain, or chronic fatigue might be due to your thyroid? Many of you have shared your frustrations about fluctuating symptoms that just don't seem to stabilize, no matter how much you adhere to your prescribed thyroid regimen. Today, we're going to dissect common mistakes in thyroid management and learn how to effectively address them.

Key Points:

Misunderstanding Thyroid Function and Testing A key mistake many encounter is an incomplete understanding of thyroid function and the reliance on inadequate testing to guide treatment. We'll discuss why comprehensive thyroid panels are crucial and why just checking TSH and T4 might lead you to miss the bigger picture of thyroid health.
Overlooking the Impact of Lifestyle on Thyroid Health Another common oversight is neglecting how lifestyle factors such as diet, stress, and environmental toxins impact thyroid function. I'll share insights on how addressing these can sometimes more effectively alleviate symptoms than medication alone.
Ignoring the Underlying Autoimmune Component Many thyroid issues, particularly hypothyroidism, stem from an autoimmune response, which often goes unaddressed. We'll explore how tuning into the body’s immune system and reducing inflammation can provide more sustainable solutions to thyroid problems.

In today's deep dive, we unraveled the complexities behind thyroid issues, spotlighting the common missteps in diagnosis and treatment. Remember, managing thyroid health isn't just about adjusting hormone levels—it's about understanding and harmonizing your body's overall function. If you're navigating thyroid challenges, consider a holistic approach that includes optimizing your diet, reducing stress, and addressing potential autoimmune triggers. These steps aren't just about managing symptoms—they're about reclaiming your health and vitality.

86. Your Brain's Secret Weapon: How Neuroplasticity Can Heal and Transform Oct 01, 2024

Have you ever felt trapped by your habits, emotions, or thought patterns, secretly wishing for a change but unsure how to break free? Neuroplasticity might just be your brain's secret weapon to overcoming these hurdles.

Key Points from Today's Episode:

The Power of Neuroplasticity: The heart of today's discussion is neuroplasticity—the brain's ability to rewire and create new neural pathways. This fascinating process allows us to learn, adapt, and evolve throughout our lives, transforming our brains to reflect our experiences and choices.
Rewiring for Positive Change: Learning something new, practicing mindfulness, and engaging in physical activity can all spark the creation of new neural pathways. By consciously choosing our thoughts and actions, we actively participate in reshaping our brains for improved cognitive and emotional well-being.
Breaking Free from Negative Patterns: Overcoming deeply ingrained patterns and habits can be challenging, but it's possible through deliberate practice and mindfulness. Identifying our thought patterns, understanding their origins, and consciously choosing to create new, positive patterns are critical steps toward harnessing neuroplasticity for personal growth.
Enhancing Brain Health and Function: A diet rich in omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, and other neuroprotective nutrients, alongside sufficient sleep and reduced stress, can significantly support the brain's health and its plasticity. These foundational elements lay the groundwork for a healthy, adaptable mind.

Our exploration of neuroplasticity underscores the incredible capacity for change and adaptation within each of us. By understanding and leveraging this powerful feature of our brains, we can overcome limitations, enhance our well-being, and unlock our full potential. Remember, the journey of transformation begins with a single step—a willingness to embrace change and the courage to pursue growth. Let's embark on this journey together, rewiring our brains for a brighter, healthier future.

In today's episode, we delve into an enlightening conversation with Andrea McHugh, a leading voice in the natural management of eczema. As a parent who transformed her family's ordeal with eczema into a mission for healthier, happier childhoods, Andrea shares invaluable insights from her extensive research and personal experience.

Key Points:

Eczema's Deep Connection with Diet and Nutrition: Andrea emphasizes the foundational role of diet in managing eczema. A focus on digestible, whole foods can significantly impact gut health, which in turn, reflects on our skin. She discusses the avoidance of foods that induce internal heat, as eczema is often exacerbated by such foods, highlighting the necessity of an anti-inflammatory diet tailored to those with eczema.
The Role of Herbal Oils in Symptom Management: Exploring beyond diet, Andrea speaks on the immediate relief and long-term benefits of using herbal oils for eczema. The practice of infusing carrier oils with herbs like marshmallow root and ginger, known for their moisture-drawing and anti-inflammatory properties, offers a natural alternative to steroid creams.
Reducing Environmental Triggers: Environmental factors play a significant role in the severity of eczema flare-ups. Andrea shares strategies for creating a less inflammatory living space by focusing on clean air, water, and reducing exposure to molds and EMFs, underscoring the importance of a holistic approach to eczema management.
The Importance of Understanding Histamines:Histamine levels and food sensitivities are critical yet often overlooked aspects of eczema. Andrea discusses how certain healthy foods might not always be beneficial for those with eczema due to their histamine content, offering guidance on identifying and managing these triggers.
Customizing Skincare for Eczema: Tailoring skincare to suit eczema-prone skin is crucial. Andrea delves into the benefits of specific herbal formulations and the importance of choosing products that support the skin’s natural barrier without exposing it to harsh chemicals.

As we explore these key areas, it's evident that managing eczema effectively requires a comprehensive, customized approach that addresses dietary habits, environmental factors, and skincare routines. By understanding and implementing these strategies, individuals suffering from eczema can embark on a path toward healing and comfort, proving that it's entirely possible to live well with eczema.

76. 5 Shocking Sources of Toxins in Your Daily Life with Julie Michelson May 14, 2024

Do you often feel inexplicably tired, or find yourself struggling with unexplained health issues like allergies, digestive problems, or skin conditions? If so, you might be surprised to learn that the culprit could be closer than you think. In today's episode, we delve into the often-overlooked sources of toxins we encounter daily. These hidden hazards lurk in our homes, our diets, and even in the very air we breathe, undermining our health in ways we might never have imagined.

Key Points:

The Air Inside Your Home

Surprisingly, indoor air can be up to five times more polluted than outdoor air. From cleaning products and air fresheners to off-gassing from furniture and building materials, our homes might not be the safe havens we believe them to be.

Personal Care Products

Shampoos, lotions, and makeup often contain phthalates, parabens, and other chemicals that can disrupt our hormonal balance and contribute to health issues over time.

Plastic Containers and Bottles

Bisphenol A (BPA), a common component in plastic products, can leach into food and beverages, posing risks to our endocrine system and overall health.

Non-Organic Foods

Pesticides and herbicides used in conventional farming can accumulate in our bodies, leading to an array of health problems. Organic foods, while not entirely free of toxins, present a safer alternative.

Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs)

In our digitally connected world, EMFs from cell phones, Wi-Fi, and other electronic devices are constant companions. While the full impact of EMFs on health is still being studied, reducing exposure might be prudent.

Recognizing and minimizing our exposure to these sources of toxins can significantly enhance our health and well-being. Whether it's opting for natural cleaning products, choosing organic foods, or simply ventilating our homes more effectively, small changes can make a big difference. Remember, it's not just about avoiding harm; it's about creating an environment where our health can thrive.

By being informed and proactive, we can take meaningful steps toward detoxifying our lives and safeguarding our health for years to come.

75. Mastering Detox: How to Open Your Body's Drainage Pathways Apr 30, 2024

Are you struggling with fatigue, brain fog, or other health issues despite trying numerous remedies? Your body’s drainage pathways might be the key you’ve been overlooking. Let's explore how you can unlock your body's full detox potential, ensuring you’re addressing not just the symptoms but the root cause of your health concerns.

Key Points:

Understanding Toxins and Detoxification

We live in a world riddled with toxins—from heavy metals and pesticides to plastics and environmental pollutants. These toxins can overload our systems, leading to a variety of health issues. However, detoxification is more than just eliminating toxins; it's about ensuring our internal pathways are primed for efficient toxin removal.

The Importance of Opening Drainage Pathways Before Detox

Before initiating any detox regimen, it's crucial to ensure our body's drainage pathways are open. These include our liver, kidneys, digestive system, skin, and more. If these pathways are blocked, toxins can re-circulate in the body, exacerbating health issues rather than alleviating them.

Lifestyle Changes to Support Detoxification

Simple lifestyle adjustments can significantly impact our detoxification efforts. Hydration, fiber-rich foods, regular exercise, and supporting liver health through optimal nutrients are foundational steps. Additionally, reducing toxin exposure by choosing organic foods and natural products can lighten our toxic load.

The Role of the Gut and Liver in Detox

The health of our gut and liver is paramount in the detox process. Ensuring optimal gut health and liver function can facilitate the removal of toxins more efficiently, reducing the likelihood of them causing harm. Incorporating foods that support liver health and gut function is a step toward better detoxification.

Mental and Emotional Aspects of Detox

Detox isn’t just physical; it's a holistic process that involves our mental and emotional health. Engaging in practices that support our limbic system and reduce stress can enhance our body's detox capabilities, highlighting the importance of a comprehensive approach to detoxification.

Detoxification is a complex but crucial aspect of maintaining optimal health. By focusing on opening our body's drainage pathways before pushing toxins out, we can ensure a more effective and beneficial detox process. This holistic approach not only addresses immediate health concerns but also lays the foundation for sustained well-being. Remember, detoxification is a journey, not a destination. By incorporating these practices into your daily life, you’re taking proactive steps toward a healthier, more vibrant you.

73. What is Biohacking? The Key to Unlocking Your Body's Full Potential Apr 02, 2024

Have you ever felt like your health is out of your hands, that despite your efforts, you're not achieving the vitality and energy you desire? Imagine if you could unlock your body's full potential, turning the tide in your favor. Welcome to "What is Biohacking? The Key to Unlocking Your Body's Full Potential," where we dive deep into the art and science of biohacking – your blueprint to optimize health and well-being.

Key Points:

Biohacking is about taking control of your biology. Rooted in the concept of creating an optimal environment both around and within you, it empowers you to make precise, informed, and conscious choices towards a healthier life.
Intermittent fasting isn't just a trend; it's a science-backed approach to enhance autophagy, your body's natural renewal process. It's about timing your meals to give your body the break it needs to heal and rejuvenate at the cellular level.
Never underestimate the rejuvenating power of sleep. It's during these crucial hours that our body repairs itself, releases growth hormones, and resets for the day ahead. Optimize your sleep environment for a deeper, more restorative slumber.
Personalize your nutrition based on your genetics. Focus on foods rich in antioxidants, omega-3 fatty acids, and nutrients that support mitochondrial health – the powerhouse of your cells.
Physical activity, especially high-intensity interval training (HIIT), signals your body to produce more mitochondria, boosting your energy and endurance. Incorporate bursts of activity throughout your day to revitalize your energy levels.
Cold showers or plunges can significantly improve your mental and physical resilience, enhance circulation, boost immune function, and even aid in weight loss through thermogenesis.
Understand how your body responds to food in real-time. Adjusting your diet based on glucose monitoring can lead to better blood sugar regulation and overall health optimization.
Embrace red light therapy for its skin and tissue repair benefits and prioritize stress reduction through mindfulness and gratitude practices to keep your body in a state of balance and healing.

Biohacking isn't just a passing trend; it's a comprehensive approach to take charge of your health journey. By understanding and applying these strategies, you're not just surviving; you're thriving. Let's embark on this journey together, exploring how we can harness our body's innate capabilities to live fuller, healthier lives.

In this episode, I'll unravel the surprising reasons behind brain fog and share actionable steps to help you regain mental clarity. So, if you're ready to combat forgetfulness and clear the mist in your mind, let's explore how.

Key Points:

Understanding Brain Fog

Brain fog is not just a forgetful moment; it's often a symptom of underlying issues. We'll look at how nutrient levels, gut health, and hormone balance play a role in brain clarity.

The Stress and Cortisol Connection

Chronic stress leads to adrenal fatigue, contributing to brain fog. We'll delve into the role of cortisol in our bodies and how its imbalance affects our cognitive functions.

Importance of Sleep

Lack of sleep or poor sleep quality directly impacts our brain's ability to function optimally. I'll discuss practical tips for improving your sleep habits.

Nutrition and Brain Health

Eating a diet rich in essential nutrients like B vitamins and omega-3s is crucial. But it's not just about what you eat; it's also about how well your body absorbs these nutrients.

Thyroid and Metabolism

A sluggish thyroid can slow down your metabolism, affecting your brain's sharpness. We'll explore the connections between thyroid health and brain fog.

Medication Side Effects

Some medications, like antihistamines, can induce brain fog. We'll examine how to be more aware of the medications you're taking and their potential cognitive impacts.

Environmental Factors

Toxins in our environment, including mold and heavy metals, can significantly affect our brain function. Learn how to identify and mitigate these factors.

Dehydration and Cognitive Function

Staying hydrated is more crucial than you might think. I'll discuss the impact of dehydration on your brain and how to ensure you're adequately hydrated.

Simple Daily Practices

Implementing small daily practices can lead to significant improvements. I'll share easy-to-incorporate tips to help clear the fog and enhance brain function.

Brain fog is a complex issue with various contributing factors, but the good news is that there are plenty of steps you can take to tackle it. From managing stress and improving sleep to optimizing nutrition and staying hydrated, small changes can make a big difference. Remember, it's not just about tackling the symptoms; it's about understanding and addressing the root causes.

57. Your Ultimate Guide to Prevent Osteoporosis with Kevin Ellis Sep 05, 2023

Welcome to today's episode where we focus on the world of bone health, specifically conditions like osteopenia and osteoporosis. In this episode, we discuss the importance of maintaining strong bones and how to prevent fractures.

We clarify the difference between osteopenia and osteoporosis, their prevalence, and how to identify if you're affected by them. We also talk about the risk factors for these conditions, such as age, gender, and lifestyle choices.

A common misconception about osteoporosis is that it only affects older women. We debunk this myth and explain that osteoporosis can happen to anyone, regardless of age or gender.

We discuss standard treatment protocols for osteoporosis and why they may not be sufficient. We offer insights on medications commonly prescribed for osteoporosis, including their impact on bone physiology and the risks and side effects that many people are unaware of. We stress the importance of a holistic approach to bone health, incorporating lifestyle changes, dietary supplements, and alternative therapies.

We also highlight the connection between gut health and bone health, sharing insights on the ideal diet for osteoporosis. We recommend specific foods that can be beneficial additions to a bone-healthy plan, such as calcium-rich foods, vitamin D, and magnesium.

Exercise plays a significant role in bone health, and we discuss whether having low bone density guarantees a fracture. We explain the importance of weight-bearing exercises like walking, dancing, and strength training in promoting bone density and preventing fractures.

Family history and genetics don't paint the complete picture when it comes to osteoporosis. We discuss the importance of understanding your individual risk factors and taking proactive steps to prevent bone loss and fractures.

To wrap up, we provide a stronger bones plan that includes a balanced diet, regular exercise, and bone-building supplements. We remind everyone that osteoporosis is not an inevitable part of aging and that there are multiple ways to improve bone health and prevent fractures. Armed with the right knowledge and tools, we can all take control of our bone health and live life to the fullest.

55. Understanding Your Menstrual Cycle and How To Optimize It with Lisa Hendrickson Aug 08, 2023

Hormone balance is key for a healthy menstrual cycle.

In this episode, we talk to Lisa Hendrickson- Jack, an expert in women's health, to discuss the significance of a healthy menstrual cycle and optimal hormone balance. We explore several important topics that shed light on the role of menstruation in a woman's overall physical, reproductive, and emotional well-being.

One of the key insights we discuss is the concept of viewing the menstrual cycle as a vital sign. Just like other vital signs, such as blood pressure and heart rate, the menstrual cycle provides valuable information about a woman's reproductive health and fertility. We emphasize the importance of paying attention to the characteristics of the menstrual cycle to gain a deeper understanding of hormonal balance and overall health.

We also talk about what a normal menstrual cycle should look like. Lisa guides us through the different phases of the cycle. By understanding what constitutes a normal cycle, women can identify any irregularities or abnormalities that may require attention or medical intervention.

We go on to explore the most common health conditions that can disrupt the menstrual cycle. Lisa shared her expertise on conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), endometriosis, and thyroid disorders, explaining their potential effects on menstruation and overall health. This knowledge enables us to recognize potential signs and symptoms, leading to early intervention and appropriate medical care.

By considering the menstrual cycle as a vital sign, understanding what constitutes a normal cycle, and recognizing the impact of common health conditions and birth control methods, we can take control of our reproductive health and make informed decisions for their overall well-being. Tune in to our episode for a wealth of knowledge and insights into this crucial aspect of women's health.

54. Trauma's Hidden Toll on Health: Uncovering the Truth and Ways to Mend Dr. Aimie Apigain Jul 25, 2023

This episode is for you if you have ever experienced trauma. Which to some degree or another is all of us. Today we discuss the distinction between stress and trauma responses with Dr. Aimie Apigian.

Stress begins with a startle response, leading to a high-energy stress response that mobilizes the body into action. On the other hand, trauma responses involve freezing and energy depletion. Trauma responses can result in a shutdown of the body, affecting physical health and causing inflammation and other biological effects.

We also discuss the role of cortisol in the stress response, emphasizing that cortisol supports the high-energy state. However, in trauma responses, the emergency brake is pulled alongside the accelerator, leading to confusing messages within the body. This can result in chronic conditions and symptoms, which are often rooted in past traumas and overwhelm.

We then talk about how working with trauma responses requires a specific sequence to shift the body's programming. The first step is establishing safety, both in a felt sense and by changing the biology to a state of safety. Dr. Aimie explains somatic work, such as somatic experiencing, to help us become aware of their nervous system and track our stress and trauma responses. By using gentle tools to shift our state, we can move towards healing and rewiring trauma patterns.

Overall, Dr. Aimie's insights shed light on the biology of trauma, the impact it has on physical health, and the importance of understanding the distinction between stress and trauma responses for effective healing and well-being.

About our Guest

52. The Secret No One Is Talking About To Improve Thyroid Health with Dr. Amie Hornaman Jun 27, 2023

Today we are exploring all things realated to thyroid health. We dive into important aspects such as thyroid lab tests, the significance of the often overlooked T2 thyroid hormone, the role of testosterone in women's health and its impact on the thyroid, the connection between insulin resistance and thyroid function, and the limitations of solely focusing on adrenal healing with Dr. Amie Hornaman.

Dr. Hornaman highlights the importance of specific lab tests that provide valuable insights into thyroid function, essential for accurate diagnosis and treatment. These "thyroid lab must do's" form the foundation for understanding and addressing thyroid health effectively.

We shed light on T2, an often forgotten thyroid hormone. Dr. Hornaman explains how T2 plays a crucial role in thyroid function and overall metabolic health. By exploring the functions and mechanisms of T2, listeners gain a deeper understanding of its impact on the body and why it should not be overlooked in discussions about thyroid health.

Another intriguing topic we discuss is the relationship between testosterone and thyroid health in women. We learn how testosterone, typically associated with men, is equally important for women. We explore the intricate connection between testosterone levels and thyroid function, emphasizing the significance of hormonal balance for optimal thyroid health.

We then shift to the conversation to explore the link between insulin resistance and thyroid function. Dr. Hornaman elaborates on how insulin resistance, a condition commonly associated with diabetes, can also affect the thyroid. Understanding this connection enables you to recognize the importance of managing insulin resistance as part of a comprehensive approach to improving thyroid health.

We then challenge the notion that solely focusing on adrenal healing is sufficient for addressing thyroid issues. We talk about the need for a holistic approach that considers various factors impacting thyroid health, rather than solely targeting adrenal glands. By debunking this misconception, you gain a more comprehensive understanding of the multifaceted nature of thyroid health and the need for a well-rounded treatment approach.

51. How To Fight Inflammation with Food with Dr. Donna Mazzola Jun 13, 2023

In today's episode, we dive into the important topic of inflammation and its relationship with our immune system with Dr. Donna Mazzola. Inflammation is a term we often hear, but understanding its true nature can be a bit tricky. It's actually a natural defense mechanism that our bodies use to protect us.

When we get injured or infected, inflammation kicks in as a response to these triggers. However, problems arise when our bodies are constantly exposed to inflammatory triggers, leading to chronic inflammation and a higher risk of chronic diseases.

We talk about the impact of our diet on inflammation. The standard American diet, which is often high in processed foods, sugar, trans fats, and omega-6 fatty acids, actually promotes inflammation. It's essential for us to reduce our consumption of these inflammatory foods and instead focus on whole foods with fewer ingredients. Filling our plates with fruits and vegetables is a great way to combat inflammation and support our overall health.

But it's not just about what we avoid; it's also about what we incorporate into our diets. Certain foods have powerful anti-inflammatory properties that can help modulate our body's inflammatory response naturally. We'll dive into some of these foods, like turmeric, rosemary, ginger, green tea extract, and boswellia (also known as frankincense). Incorporating these ingredients into our meals can provide us with the benefits of anti-inflammatory compounds without the negative side effects associated with long-term steroid use.

Making dietary changes can feel overwhelming, but remember, small steps can lead to significant improvements. Start by gradually incorporating more anti-inflammatory foods into your daily routine. You'll be amazed at how these changes can positively impact your health.

And let's not forget the importance of educating our children about nutrition and instilling healthy habits from an early age. By teaching them about the power of anti-inflammatory foods, we set them up for a lifetime of wellness.

So, join us as we explore the fascinating connection between food and immune-mediated inflammation. You're in for a friendly and informative discussion that will provide valuable insights to support your journey toward a healthier, inflammation-free life.

BIO

Donna Mazzola, is a Pharmacist who has always had a fascination with natural healing and preventative care. After obtaining a Doctorate in Pharmacy, Donna realized that medicine has a place in healing, but it's the balance between nutrition and medicine that impacts disease. This fascination became an obsession after a personal diagnosis with Hashimotos in 2015. Her disease pushed her to embark on a journey to seek answers and identify the root cause related to the rise in autoimmune and other inflammatory chronic conditions. On this journey she obtained Master’s degree in Functional Medicine and Human Nutrition and gave birth to Dr.AutoimmuneGirl, her persona and passion to empower people with the knowledge to take control of their health. Donna is on a mission to educate the world on the healing powers of food and give meaning to the concept of food as medicine. She runs the blog drautoimmunuegirl.com to share reputable scientific information related to nutrition and health. Donna is the author of the “Immunity Food Fix”, a guide to a 100 Superfoods and Nutrition Hacks to Reverse Inflammation, Prevent Illness, and Boost Your Immunity!

50. Is Your Gut Health Suffering? Here's How Fiber Comes to the Rescue May 30, 2023

Are you bloated, gassy or suffering with other IBS symptoms? Did you know that most Americans fall short of their recommended daily fiber intake? Fiber is a key dietary staple for optimizing your microbiome and overall gut health. Join us as we explore the transformative benefits of fiber, its different types, and how to incorporate fiber-rich foods into our diet for optimal digestive health.

In a nutshell, fiber can be divided into two categories: soluble and insoluble. Soluble fiber, found in foods like oats, beans, and apples, dissolves in water to form a gel-like substance. This special property slows down digestion, stabilizes blood sugar levels, lowers cholesterol, and nourishes our gut's good bacteria. On the other hand, insoluble fiber, abundant in whole grains, nuts, and vegetables like cauliflower, adds bulk to our stool, promoting regular bowel movements and preventing constipation.

We also uncover the vital role fiber plays in maintaining a healthy gut. Not only does it enhance gut motility and support waste elimination, but it also reduces the risk of digestive disorders like diverticulitis and colorectal cancer. By acting as a prebiotic, fiber fuels the growth of beneficial bacteria in our gut, leading to a balanced gut microbiome and reduced inflammation.

Listen for practical tips on how to increase fiber intake. From adding colorful fruits and vegetables to swapping refined grains for whole grains, we discuss simple yet effective ways to boost your fiber consumption. Remember to increase fiber gradually and stay hydrated to avoid any discomfort during the transition.

Join us on this journey to use the power of fiber to experience improved digestion, regular bowel movements, and enhanced overall well-being. Let's prioritize fiber-rich foods and unlock the remarkable benefits they bring to our gut health.

Discover how incorporating fiber into your diet can transform your digestive health and pave the way for a vibrant, fulfilling life. Together, let's nurture our digestive systems and embark on a path to holistic wellness.

45. Leaky Brain with Shae Leonard Mar 21, 2023

Today we will discuss "leaky brain" with Shae Leonard. This is a term used to describe the malfunctioning of the blood-brain barrier, a protective barrier that separates the brain from circulating blood.

The blood-brain barrier helps to regulate the flow of nutrients, hormones, and other substances in and out of the brain, while also preventing harmful substances from entering.

When the blood-brain barrier is compromised, it becomes "leaky" allowing harmful substances to enter the brain, which can lead to a variety of conditions.

We dive into:

The science behind a leaky brain
What symptoms you can experience with leaky brain
Genetic variants that can make you more likely to experience symptoms of leaky brain
If you are experiencing symptoms things you can do right not to turn things around
Why medication is not necessarily the answer

Shae Leonard is a physician assistant who made the jump from psychiatry to functional medicine. She is a certified functional medicine practitioner who focuses on mood issues, gut and hormone health.
