Today's guest, Dr. Roxanna Namavar, is the founder of Pretty Healthy, a functional medicine clinic in New York City that specializes in infusion therapy. Her focus is on integrative health, mental wellness and anti-aging - specifically, how we can use customized medicine to find the root cause of mental health conditions and reverse the clock to bring patients onto a healing path.
On this episode, she talks to Andrea about the gut-brain axis and how the health of our guts is intricately linked to our mental health, including common conditions like anxiety and depression. In fact, did you know that 60% of mental health issues are linked to gut imbalance?

Never before in the history of humans have we had more personal care products. Deodorants, face washes, cleansers, shampoos, toners, serums...the list goes on and on. And yet, there's a case to be made that our skin has never been unhealthier.
On this show, MotherDirt president, Jasmina Aganovic, is on the show talking about how our modern day lives and products have virtually pushed certain strains of bacteria into extinction -- and how our bodies are struggling to rebound without them.

Dr. Vincent Pedre joins Andrea on this week's show to talk about the differences between functional and conventional medicine -- and how they can work together to heal disease.

Meditation and the microbiome? How could those possibly be connected? It turns out that because meditation and mindfulness can reduce stress and inflammation, there's a strong connection with gut health.

If you've been curious about meditation or tried to meditate in the past and failed, this episode is for you.

100% the same DNA. Only 40% the same microbiome. This was the shocking discovery that led today's identical twin guests down a path that's just getting started.
On today's show, celebrity DJs Lisa and Alana Macfarlane (The Mac Twins) talk about that initial discovery that shocked them to their core, and why they became so passionate about topics like poo.
The Mac Twins also tell Andrea what they've learned after talking to thousands of people in the UK about gut health through their new company, The Gut Stuff, and dish on their plans to make 2019 their most inspiring year yet.
Eczema, acne, psoriasis, dry skin, athlete's foot. The list of skin issues seems to be never-ending. But have you ever wondered why you're afflicted? It's not bad genes or the wrong skincare products (though those can certainly factor in). Turns out, it might be your microbiome.
Today's guest, Dr. Trevor Cates (The Spa Doctor), is here to enlighten us on how the microbes on our skin and in our gut play a vital role in our skin's overall health.
Dr. Cates is the best-selling author of Clean Skin From Within, a guide on how to identify the root causes of skin issues rather than simply treating the symptoms. She's also the host of her own weekly podcast, The Spa Dr., and the PBS special, Younger Skin From Within.
On this show, she talks about how our skin and gut microbiomes are intricately linked and how it's nearly impossible to heal the skin without first healing the body.
