Real Talk, Whole Life — Alternative Health
Real Talk, Whole Life

Welcome to Real Talk, Whole Life—part candid phone call with your nerdy best friends, part myth-busting, and entirely unfiltered. Wellness without the woo. Womanhood without the guilt. Wisdom from the fine folks who survived dial-up and low-fat lies.
Host Stacy Toth brings honest, heartfelt conversations about what it means to live fully—in your body, your brain, and your messy, magical life. From midlife mayhem and mental health to Botox alternatives and book recs, we’re covering it all—with a side of sarcasm and a whole lot of heart.
No shame. No pseudoscience. Just the kind of conversations you actually want to hear when you call a friend—especially if “wellness” has never quite felt like it was made for you.
Rooted in womanhood, open to anyone who’s ever been side-eyed in a yoga studio. Come for the hot takes, stay for the healing.
Real Talk, Whole Life is hosted by Stacy Toth, bestselling diet culture author turned anti-diet health at any size educator. Her goal is to create a safe space for all to explore their own version of wellness without the elitist self-focused woo woo. Previously The Whole View and The Paleo View, this evolution of the podcast is a reflection of the growth we all go through exploring being middle aged. Expect a wide variety of guests on an even greater variety of topics, but always inclusive ways for non-toxic living (mental and physical).

Listener Questions:

I am wondering if there is any information around booters with pregnant or breastfeeding Moms? - Sahiba

Hi Dr. Sarah and Stacy,

I love your show. I've been listening for about 2 years now and have listened to so many of your shows multiple times, plus many of your archives. And I love Patreon and the inside scoop over here. I'm sure you're really hoping not to do anymore COVID shows, and I totally appreciate that. However I trust your analysis of the science so much that I was really hoping to hear about the vaccine for kids:

What is the science saying so far? I'd like to hear the science, as well as your opinion as a mom regarding the benefits and safety please. I look forward to learning more and appreciate your show for the factual, scientific evidence it bring on on things health and nutrition related. Thanks for all the work you both do to bring this show to us each week, I'm a dedicated and avid fan and always look forward to each new release.

Sincerely,

Jaclyn

Episode 485: Covid-19 Boosters for Adults Dec 03, 2021

Show notes

This week, Stacy and Dr. Sarah break down the science behind Covid-19 boosters for adults.

Links to any products and articles discussed in the episode here!

This Week's Listener Question:

I wanted to say I listened to every covid 19 vaccine podcast. It was so good. And I got j&j. I am so grateful for the research and thought and time y’all put into it to help give me peace of mind and educate myself. I was in bed sick for 7 days recovering from the vaccine. And I am interested in the booster. And I am wondering if y’all are going to do another podcast on it.

I am positive y’all probably got death threats which is just horrifying. But for folks like me who want to know the science balanced with a holistic mindset, it’s a true gift what you give to this holistic community. Okay I’m tearing up over here.

Yes I had a rough week recovering from the vaccine. And I know I needed to get it. And I don’t regret it. But there’s not much talk about the booster. Would love your research and findings. Thank y’all for the work you do. Truly. So so thankful.

Episode 483: Reintroductions—They’re not just for AIP Nov 19, 2021

Show notes

This week, Stacy and Dr. Sarah break down the science of reintroductions commonly associated with the AIP to determine how they work and how they might benefits us.

Links to any products and articles discussed in the episode here on Monday!

This week's Listener Question:

What foods have you been able to reintroduce, Dr. Sarah? What are common foods that people succeed with?

I've been working with the AIP for a little over a year now, and the autoimmune community is so supportive and helpful with eliminations. Now that my doctor and I have made so much progress with correcting my dysbiosis, its almost time for starting the reintroduction process, but nobody talks very much about this part!

For me, I've been reacting to almost everything that's removed on the AIP and the crucifer and umbellifer families besides. I want to know what others have successfully reintroduced but there's not much talk about that online.

I know that every body is different, but how much can someone expect to expand their diet? What are the areas that most people have trouble in? Reintroduction feels lonely right now!

Episode 482: Natural Pain Management Strategies Nov 12, 2021

Show notes

This week, Stacy and Dr. Sarah break down Sarah's top 3 natural strategies for pain management and how each can be used in addition to or even in place of a prescribed pain plan.

Links to any products and articles discussed in the episode here!

This week's listener question:

Hi Dr. Sarah and Stacy. My question is - how to begin the AIP without NSAIDs? I understand why removing them is critical - to recognize what foods and lifestyle components may drive inflammation. However, osteoarthritis is in both knees with the right one being bone on bone and in the cervical area, again with the right side being worse.

Generally, I use aleve for pain and if I don’t have to travel or go in the office, I either don’t use it or use one instead. But with job sites reopening, I have had to use them more frequently and I have a bit of travel for my job. Oh, I’ll also mention that at one point, my CRP level was 41 and at last test a couple of years ago, it was down to 19. So I’m open to any suggestions on how to better manage the health challenges so I can begin AIP properly. Thanks so much!

I take supplements including vitamins c and d, both of which are to reduce C-reactive protein. I strive for 8 hours of sleep though it’s mostly interrupted and have year round allergies for which I currently receive allergy shots. I also manage PCOS and osteoarthritis.

This week's Listener Questions:

Vaness asks: How do you overcome the forgetfulness? I'm dying to let go of some things that I took on (household chores, kid stuff, etc) but he cannot seem to juggle much else besides work & hubby/dad life. I need him to help, which means remembering to do the dishes without me having to ask him-it's one more mental thing on my plate, like having another kid 🥴😕 Our non-binary child also has it and we see the same struggles. It's so tough. Thank you for doing this! 💕

Andrada asks: Suggestions for diagnosis as an adult. Favorite resources to help spouse & self. Your comment about white lies due to anxiety really hit home to me in addition to other issues that have gotten worse as I age.

Stephanie asks: I feel like we're not communicating well.

Meghan asks: I'm the adhd partner and I definitely feel like I'm struggling with my partner even believing that it's "real." 🙃 recently dx & medicated, so progression > perfection, but damn man. How to get them to understand?

This Week's Listener Question:

Hello ladies! My two favorite people. I feel greedy writing you a third time but here we go again. I promise you I will not be disappointed if you don’t answer. But I do highly respect any and all opinions and information you put out into the health world. I recommend your resources to everyone! Even my doctors!

You helped me a lot with an initial weight loss about 4 years ago and then with keeping my healthy eating practices while I was pregnant with my second child 2 years ago (with minimal guilt I might add) so I truly thank you!

Sadly after I delivered I got “sick”. Doctors said I was fine. But through persistence and testing 6 months later I was diagnosed with multiple myeloma (cancer) and I’m having trouble coming to terms with it.

The reason I seek you guys out is WTF I was doing everything right. The health world says if my gut and lifestyle are good, do a little fasting, reduce the sugar I should be good no? I feel a bit bitter to the health world I’ve now been a part of for years. People keep recommending naturopathic treatment and think I’m crazy not to do it. I can’t afford it and my oncologists are saying NO. I’m very far gone and I need all the conventional medical advancements to keep me alive.I just want your opinion on Cancer and maybe even my bone marrow cancer if you know anything.

My prognosis isn’t good. There’s no cure and it’s spread to my bones. What do I do health wise here? Am I justified to ditch the health world now and go full conventional medical care. What stuff from the health world do I keep around? I can’t take chances and I need to go with science. You are the most science minded people I know. Please consider a response if you have time. Thanks for reading

- Dayna
