SE23 - How to Reverse Diseases Using Food Jun 07, 2022

Show notes

Show Summary: "Don't be content with being sick. And don't ever give up."

Have you ever felt like giving up on your sickness or life? If yes, then don’t!

There is a way, and we are here to tell you that you don't have to waste your time, money, and medicines to get well. Instead, you can reverse your disease through food.

Coining the term "nutritarian" and publishing 12 best-selling books aside from his medical practice, our special guest, the amazing Dr. Joel Fuhrman, shares with us that proper diet indeed is the cure for all diseases. Would you like to get rid of your diabetes and high blood pressure and get back to your ideal weight? Would you like to live a long, healthy life as possible? You can do it!

With all the advanced research, we can live longer and healthier. And Dr. Fuhrman shares how we can achieve this goal. So please tune in to our latest episode so that you can be a self-healing champion.

Exceptional Highlights:

When you take drugs, it's just these short-term gains but long-term deficits.
The nutritional calorie density of your diet is a major factor affecting your health.
It's a big process and art to motivate a person to change their diet.

Show Highlights:

How did you realize that nutrition is the way to go if people want to find healing?

Dr. Fuhrman 5:20

I found that out before I went to medical school. I was dating this woman who went to medical school and said that if I'm so passionate about this, why don't I become a doctor myself?

What are you seeing in the literature in the research these days around health and nutrition?

Dr. Fuhrman 26:56

The most surprising finding in the scientific literature is that more plant protein in the diet extends the human lifespan and slows aging. And more animal protein accelerates aging and promotes cancer.

Can you tell us something about your nutritarian philosophy?

Dr. Fuhrman 27:33

A diet that has a sufficient amount of green vegetables, beans, nuts and seeds, and other vegetables, of course, is the basis of a nutritarian diet.

S2E22 - Healing Lyme Disease- Ashley Church's Healing Journey May 31, 2022

Show notes

Show Summary: "Healing isn't a destiny. It's a journey."

Have you ever had Lyme disease? Or do you know someone who had it? Unfortunately, Lyme is more prevalent than we realize. And some people are not even aware that they have it. Such is the case with our guest for this episode. It took her almost fourteen years to find out that she had Lyme disease, setting aside the daily fatigue and headaches she was experiencing.

So today, one of my golden babies, Ashley Church, who is now one of our private coaches at Provo Health, is joining us for this episode. She was my note-taker before she finally graduated to become a coach. Listen as she shares her healing journey with us and affirm that healing takes time. Ashley is proof of our mission in helping everyone to be their healing champions as she advises all of you listeners to be your health advocate.

No one cares as much about your health as you do. So be inspired by Ashley as she tells about her healing journey from having Lyme disease to being a Provo Health coach.

Exceptional Highlights:

Antibiotics are not the way to attack Lyme disease.
Give your body what it needs to heal you.
There's always help; there's always light; there's always hope. For me, it was the hope and the desire to have my future.

Show Highlights:

What symptoms did you experience that led to Lyme disease?

Ashley 4:39

More headaches, and they were pretty constant every single day. I was taking Advil to get through the day every day. Also, having low energy. I couldn't wake up early.

If the listeners here had Lyme disease and were sitting in consultation with you, what would you tell them?

Ashley 12:50

I would probably want to see how severe their symptoms are and what symptoms they have.

What are cavitations?

Ashley 21:04

Cavitations are actually pockets on teeth that hold a lot of bacteria. And they can harbor things like Lyme and infection from when your teeth are pulled.

Are there any other lessons you feel it's taught you along the way?

Ashley 28:53

One thing I would say is, "Never give up." I mean, there were many times when I felt I was done. But I had some amazing support from my family and friends that I never felt I was in a really scary place.

S2E21 - Elimination Diets & Autoimmune Diseases with Dr. Donna Mazzola May 24, 2022

Show notes

Show Summary: "Healing is a marathon, not a sprint."

Do you know someone who has autoimmune diseases? There are about 110 types of autoimmune diseases, and most people who have them are not aware that they have them. Checking your food intake and what foods you should avoid eating can help you heal these diseases.

We have Dr. Donna Mazolla, a.k.a Dr. Autoimmune Girl, to discuss elimination diets and autoimmune diseases with us for this episode. For someone who has had Hashimotos for several years, Donna is the perfect person who can tell us what works and what does not work with the food we eat. Plus, she is a doctor of pharmacology! She shares all she knows through her book "Immunity Food Fix."

Donna teaches people what she has been practicing. Like us, she realized that there is a gap in health care that other medical professionals do not address that much - nutrition and lifestyle. Instead, they prescribe medication and let their patients go about their way without being adequately advised or educated about what they should eat or avoid.

So please tune in to this episode and share it with as many people as possible to be your healing champion by simply addressing your nutrition and making the necessary lifestyle changes. If we could do it, you can do it, too! We are here for you.

Exceptional Highlights:

No wonder people are so traumatized by food because all these quote-unquote experts are all yelling at each other, saying each other is wrong.
There is a science to back up that food will make or break you.
We need to figure out which buttons to push and which foods to eat to help our bodies heal themselves.

Show Highlights:

Can you add something about the effects of antibiotics on our microbiome?

Donna 13:33

It's impacted our immune system; it's decreased our oral tolerance. We see a rise in allergies as a result.

Suppose people are starting to incorporate food after an elimination diet. What are the effects that they should look out for?

Donna 18:38

It could be fatigue, something you're not even thinking about. But like your typical bloating, diarrhea, or gas, these let you know something is going on with the gut.

What about these people that can't even handle vegetables?

Donna 21:10

For those people, the question is, have you removed all inflammatory foods first? And now you're eating vegetables and can't tolerate it. We have to give it time.

Can we get your opinions on the different types of elimination diets?

Donna 32:50

I am a pro vegetable and not vegan or vegetarian. I'm not anti-animal protein. But I recognize the need, like the phytochemicals present in plants. Looking at Keto and being a carnivore, I'm against these diets because of the disruption and the gut microbiome.

S2E20 - Getting Rid of Heavy Metals, Toxins & Parasites to Finally Expedite Healing in Your Body May 17, 2022

Show notes

Show Summary: "Parasites can change your personality."

When was the last time you did detoxification?

When was the last time you made yourself aware of what could possibly be in the food you're eating & water you're drinking?

When was the last time you felt like you were not yourself?

If you don't know the answers to these questions, you should listen to this episode!

Imagine pulling 12-inch dead worms out of your rear end & discovering that there are many parasites inside your body! That was Dr. Jay's experience when taking Mimosa pudica seeds for cleansing. Dr. Jay Davidson is one of CellCore Biosciences and Microbe Formulas' founders that ensures patients build a strong foundation before entering periods of deeper detoxification.

Listen as he deeply educates about different types of parasitic worms that could affect how you think and act. He also shares how Lyme is being treated incorrectly and why it is important to identify its root cause.

Please share this with your loved ones because it is so essential to be aware of how different parasites can get to your bodies and how to get rid of them.

gutsy.ch/detox101

Exceptional Highlights:

The most important thing for your water is to make sure there are no chemicals in it.
Lyme disease is most often in places with radioactive elements in their water supply.
Parasites can literally change your brain chemistry.

Show Highlights:

Does the stool test detect parasites?

Dr. Jay 13:27

The chance is very little. I know that upsets people, especially those working in a lab or huge fans of stool tests. And there are two pieces to unpack here. The first one is they've done research where they take a stool analysis and look at the bacteria on the stool, and then they probe up into the intestinal tract and take a sample of the bacteria. And they were completely different.

Parasites can change your personality

Dr. Jay 17: 49

There's a book called Your Brain on Parasites. Their research finds that when a parasite is there, it actually changes your personality. So when you do certain things, and you feel that that's not you, there's probably something else that is modifying who you really are.

gutsy.ch/detox101

How often should you do a parasite cleanse?

Dr. Jay 19:16

It depends on the person. The idea is we're not trying to eliminate every single worm or parasite within your body. Just like we're not trying to kill every bacteria. Parasite load will build up. One of the most important things to do is to bring that load down and then do some periodic cleansing to keep it down, so it's not as if you're going to get rid of it. We're not eliminating everything, and we want to keep that in check because it's all about harmony and balance.

S2E19 - The Future of Healing Through Ketamine May 10, 2022

Show notes

Show Summary: "Ketamine creates the death of the ego. It takes those things you've been keeping alive with your ego and says they no longer serve a purpose."

Cancer patients and their caregivers go through many challenges that lead to psychological problems like anxiety and depression. And the standard talk therapy that happens between patients and psychiatrists isn't enough. In recent years, some people put up Ketamine clinics. But these clinics are just cash cows and still do not help in addressing the psychological experiences that cancer patients and their caregivers go through.

So in this episode, I am deeply honored to have Krista Andersen, my partner, in putting up our Ketamine clinic. She has been dealing with cancer as a caregiver at an early age since her mom was diagnosed with lung cancer when she was ten years old. Then her sister, and then her. But amazingly, she is now at the stage of moving forward to being in remission.

Please tune in and listen as Krista and I share with you our shared journey of being a cancer patient and a caregiver and how we will be putting up our ketamine clinic so that we can help more people in their healing journey.

Exceptional Highlights:

Cancer is a very lonely experience. Even if a lot of people surround you, it is still isolating, very lonely, and very helpless.
Ketamine helps you see things from different perspectives. You're seeing it from a much higher level; you are not seeing it from a place of trauma.
Ketamine therapy can help people with all sorts of depressive disorders: PTSD, addiction behaviors, suicidal ideations, disease, trauma, and end of life.

Show Highlights:

Do you think people understand what cancer patients or even their caregivers are going through?

Krista 9:53

Until you are in that place as a caregiver or patient, there is no way to understand the experiences fully.

How was your first experience being under Ketamine?

Krista 16:20

In my first few moments of being under Ketamine, my conscious cognitive thought was if this is what dying is like, I would be okay with it. There was a lot of peace.

Why are we creating our clinic?

Juanique 19:52

Because we see these cash cow clinics, and they're just pumping people in and pumping them out. And can you imagine someone starting to have that experience? And it's a very scary experience for them.

Why do you believe in Ketamine therapy?

Krista 25:47

I believe that we can revolutionize how these medicines are being used to treat mental health or help improve mental health.

S2E18 - EMDR Therapy for Mental Health & Healing May 03, 2022

Show notes

Show Summary: "EMDR targets part of the past; then, it targets current triggers, and then it does the future template.”

Getting your mindset right is the first important step in starting your healing journey. Suppose your brain isn't working for you but is working against you, or if you have this neuro wiring for trauma, PTSD, or highly intense emotional reactions, it's because that's what protected you or saved you many years ago.

Sadly, if that's how your brain still works, your body won't feel good. It'll be in a fight or flight response, and you need to get out of that dominant sympathetic response and get into a parasympathetic state, which is rest & digest, to heal. But some people think that it's difficult to do because it'll take years to get past their trauma.

We all know that talk therapy is helpful, but other therapies can also help you resolve one traumatic memory at a time so your brain can start rationalizing negative events or experiences and prevent you from getting into a fight or flight response. And with Gregory Salvesen, we'll talk about what EMDR is, how it works, and how effective it is in dealing with traumatic experiences without spending years of a lifetime going to therapy sessions.

Don't forget to share this with your loved ones who need to hear this!

Exceptional Highlights:

The goal is whenever you feel negative emotions; you calm yourself down without needing all the other tools because your rational brain can now tap into that negative emotion & rationalize it out.
We drop off the emotions attached to every experience; We filter that out and place the information where it belongs.
We resolve one memory at a time. Some need more than one session because it depends on what is the significant trauma.

Show Highlights:

What is REM Sleep?

Greg 3:16

A lot of information processing occurs while we're asleep, specifically when we're in REM sleep. REM means rapid eye movement. That's because our eyes do a little bit of a flicker & that's when you know people are dreaming.

What is EMDR?

Greg 10:04

EMDR works on the same mechanism as REM sleep. But it targets those problematic experiences and memories that have shifted and neutralizes them. We use a mechanical eye movement, and we target & stimulate the memory & negative thoughts associated with that. And then we use the eye movements while you're awake to help the brain reexamine and file it correctly.

How Dr. Greg discovered that his road rage comes from the underlying cognitions of power and control

Greg 23:10

My road rage had nothing to do with a car, and it was about underlying cognitions of power and control. It was related to my childhood experience in detention. I was planning to go to a dental appointment, and the teacher grabbed me into detention, and she wouldn't let me go to the parking lot and tell my mom, and I had this awful trapped power control thing.

S2E17 - Healing DOES Happen & This is How with Jasmine Dulin Apr 26, 2022

Show notes

Show Summary: "Healing can be fun. It can be inflow, and it can be easy. It's not hard work. You just need to set your intention."

If you have been used to being sick or depressed, Healing may look like hard work. In our modern world filled with Transformation Tuesdays, it isn't easy to talk about one's healing journey from the point of view of our guest for this episode.

From suicidal ideation to embracing her Healing timeline, join our discussion with Jasmine Dulin, one of our Gutsy Health Academy members. Jasmine grew up with her mom, who used food as medicine. But upon finishing college, she started getting weird health symptoms. She couldn't exercise because she was injury-prone, and she has since struggled with terrible anxiety. She discovered the Gutsy Health Podcast when she badly needed something to take her mind off of suicidal ideation. And ever before, she decided to change her habits and learn all that she could, especially with food and nutrition, to become a self-healing champion.

If you are currently nursing a sickness and would like to be inspired by Jasmine's story, sit back, relax and tune in to this episode. Invite a loved one or a friend with you, too! Believe in the power of Healing! And just like Jasmine, all you need to start is to believe that you can.

What is suicidal ideation?

Jasmine 8:15

It means that you don't necessarily have a plan to end your life, but you won't be disappointed if you happen to get in a car crash and die.

What was the next breadcrumb on your path of learning?

Jasmine 20:14

Some people like to jump into a program and go hard. But for me, I get overwhelmed super quickly. So I've heard you guys say something similar to it can be beneficial for many people to make small conquerable goals.

S2E16 - Never Overlook Mindset When it Comes to Healing with Beliefs - Britt Lefkoe Apr 19, 2022

Show notes

Show Summary: "If we believe something is dangerous, it creates fear. If we believe something is safe, it creates calmness in our body."

Mindset is everything. It is the way that we experience the world. Mindset is the very first item in the order of healing. Without the proper mindset, healing will take a longer time to happen. Our conscious and subconscious belief systems can build up or deteriorate our bodies. Whatever we think of happens to our bodies. That is why our special guest for today gives us a glimpse of the fantastic possibilities that could happen when you join us in the Gutsy Health Academy.

Britt Lefkoe is one of the most amazing mindset coaches we've ever met. She continues the groundbreaking work of her father, Morty Lefkoe. Their belief-based and neuro-scientific approach to personal development has been of great help to individuals and organizations around the world. I have personally witnessed what she can do in an hour as she has helped Tristin change from being bent over and in a dark place to being upright and in a positive mood again.

We are so honored and thrilled to have her on board with us as we open another season and continue our healing journey together at the Gutsy Health Academy. So please sit back and listen to this episode so that you can take a peek at what's possible for you and your loved ones to heal.

ENROLL NOW IN THE GUTSY HEALTH ACADEMY & START BEING AN EXPERT OF YOUR HEALTH WITH JUANIQUE & GINA !

Exceptional Highlights:

Our health is oftentimes a reflection of our internal turmoil.
Love and attention are tied to safety.
When you're in that space of self-love and when you're in that space of flow, that is when you start to heal.

Show Highlights:

Why is mindset important?

Britt 13:20

I think that mindset is so important because it's about updating the software. Mindset is about getting rid of these old generalizations to see the world as it actually is instead of as you believe it to be.

ENROLL NOW IN THE GUSTY HEALTH ACADEMY & START BEING AN EXPERT OF YOUR HEALTH WITH JUANIQUE & GINA !

So how do you update an app that you haven't updated?

Britt 16:50

I think coming with curiosity to your childhood is important to understand that if our beliefs are developed during our first seven years, we can start to ask the questions like, 'What did I think I learned?', 'What did I feel about having a parent who was a worrier?'

What happens when someone starts doing mindset work?

Britt 19:31

When you start doing mindset work, you start to have this superpower where these beliefs simply are midpoints; there's a step along the way.

S2EP15 - How To Go From Victim To Hero In Your Healing Journey Apr 12, 2022

Show notes

Show Summary: "There is a lot of mindset shifting when people embark on a healing journey. It can sometimes be scary or isolating, and we want to break down those barriers for our members."

Our mission here at the Gutsy Health Podcast has always been to help people become self-healing champions. And a champion is always a hero, never a victim. Being sick, especially with a debilitating disease, can cause negative thinking, insecurity, and loneliness. We are here to delete all of the negativities that cause you to get more sick by helping you change your mindset and making you feel that you are not alone.

The current model for our health care is just not working. As we are truth seekers, we only want the best for you, and certain practices cause harm rather than good for our bodies. We want to empower more people with knowledge and skills that allow them to think about their health critically. We share whatever knowledge we have through this podcast and the Gutsy Health Academy.

We believe that people just need guidance on the basics when it comes to healing. Please tune in to this episode to know when we are once again opening doors for our Gutsy Health Academy.

We invite you to join us and be a hero in your self-healing journey.

ENROLL NOW IN THE GUTSY HEALTH ACADEMY & START BEING AN EXPERT OF YOUR HEALTH WITH JUANIQUE & GINA !

Exceptional Highlights:

Our body is a complex system that all works together. Our gut influences our hormones, our mindset affects our hormones, and all these things work together.
The present medical model is just like a machine - for doctors to see as many people as possible in a short amount of time. But that's not sufficient to help people understand their bodies and to help them know what they need to do to heal and reverse a lot of their ailments.
Healing should be in flow. If you want to go from victim to hero in your healing journey, it has to excite you. It has to come from a place of joy and wonder.

Show Highlights: 4

What are your credentials that would back up this program?

Juanique 7:41

I was in school for nutrition therapy to become a master nutrition therapist; halfway through the program, Tristin's health started to decline, and he died.

What is our mission here?

Juanique 10:54

It's to empower you with knowledge and a skill set that allows you to think critically about your health and recruit doctors to be on your team but you're the head coach; you're not taking direction from them.

When can we sign up for the Gutsy Health Academy?

Juanique 30:20

You can sign up from April 11 to June 1.

The Gutsy Health Academy is more fun!

Juanique 41:09

We gamified it! If you finish a certain class & share something about your experience on Facebook, you gain points. And the accumulated points will allow you to get gifts or prizes!

S2E14 - The Vision of Conscious Healing Clinics for Cancer and Lyme Patients Apr 05, 2022

Show notes

Show Summary: "I want to provide incredible services for cancer patients and help fund the means for their treatments and let them realize they're not alone."

Most of Juanique's followers and listeners know that Tristin reveals himself to her through rainbows, and she always sees rainbows. She sees them everywhere. During a friend's funeral, she saw an upside-down rainbow that seemed to be going around the sun. That same day, she received a DM from someone on Instagram who was also present at the funeral, and she thanked her for all the things she had done for the cancer community.

But here are Juanique's thoughts. "I have done nothing but run from the cancer community because I was still healing from mental trauma. But I won't be running anymore. Seeing the rainbow and the sun fueled me to have bigger plans for the cancer community."

So in this episode, Juanique shares her vision - her plans and dreams for cancer and Lyme patients - by opening the Provo Health Clinic. There is not enough good mental support for people struggling with cancer and their families, and it's appalling. Having cancer in the family feels like your world is being completely shattered, and your sense of safety is ripped from you. But Juanique is here for you. We hear you, so you will never be alone in your battle.

Do you have cancer or know someone who has cancer? Listen to this episode because there is hope, and we can help each other get through the challenges of this sickness.

What is a conscious healing clinic?

Juanique 15:50

A conscious healing clinic integrates consciousness with nutrition and lifestyle changes that empower people to learn how to heal themselves.

Why are there not more hyperbaric clinics?

Juanique 17:34

It is way too hard and too expensive to open up a hyperbaric clinic.

Why do you want to open a hyperbaric clinic?

Juanique 17:47

This isn't about business. This is about helping people promote health. It's for a purpose. It's for a cause.

Why do you feel the need to help families of people with cancer?

Juanique 18:45

I understand that when cancer families are feeling desperation, they need a team, a support system, and need help. They don't need to mortgage their house; they don't need to feel like they will become bankrupt from this.
