Episode 438: Revive After Lyme - an interview with Janna Johnson

In this transformative episode of the Tick Boot Camp Podcast, host Matt Sabatello is joined by Janna Johnson—#1 best-selling author, keynote speaker, Functional Medicine Nutritional Therapist, and Lyme disease survivor. Janna's powerful story of recovery from Lyme disease, breast implant illness (BII), and chronic illness showcases her commitment to functional health and the role of mindset, self-care, and lifestyle adjustments in healing. This episode offers listeners invaluable insights and actionable strategies for overcoming chronic illness with a holistic approach. Guest Background: From Texas to Functional Medicine Raised in Texas, Janna grew up with a sugar-heavy diet that led to chronic inflammation, gut health issues, and mental health struggles, including anxiety and depression, by her twenties. Her journey to healing began when she made dietary changes, emphasized gut health, and embraced the connection between chronic inflammation and neurological symptoms. Healing Chronic Lyme Disease: Essential Oils, Diet, and Detox Protocols Janna's recovery from Lyme disease was rooted in holistic protocols, including essential oils and dietary changes. After years of misdiagnoses, she was finally diagnosed with Lyme disease by Dr. Aviva Romm. Her treatment strategies include: Keto Diet: Janna adopted a strict ketogenic diet, focusing on healthy fats, minerals, and low-sugar foods to reduce inflammation and restore gut health. Essential Oil Protocol: She used a blend of essential oils such as cinnamon bark, thyme, oregano, and tea tree oil to target Lyme bacteria and biofilms. Janna mixed the oils with a carrier oil (organic extra virgin olive oil) and took them in veggie capsules, adjusting dosages based on muscle testing and practitioner guidance. Lymphatic Detox Support: To assist her body's detoxification, Janna incorporated infrared saunas, dry brushing, and regular exercise to support lymphatic drainage and symptom management. Mindset and Die-Off Preparation: She emphasizes the importance of mental resilience through die-off reactions—normal but challenging responses to microbial “kill” phases—reinforcing her belief in the body's capacity to heal. The Tick Boot Camp PARM Model: Prehab, Assist, Rehab, and Maintenance Janna resonated with Tick Boot Camp's PARM model, a framework developed to guide chronic illness recovery: Prehab: Prioritizing detox and lymph support, as well as sleep, to prepare the body for treatment. Assist: Helping the body through the microbial “kill” phase by supporting immune function and enhancing the body's ability to clear out pathogens like Lyme bacteria. Rehab: Focusing on healing the body from Lyme-related damage by incorporating nutrients, rest, and supportive practices that address neurological and physiological impacts. Maintenance: Creating sustainable wellness habits, like a nutrient-dense diet, stress reduction, and routine exercise, to support long-term health and prevent relapse. Breast Implant Illness (BII) Journey and Explant Surgery After successfully managing Lyme disease, Janna encountered Breast Implant Illness (BII), experiencing symptoms like brain fog, anxiety, and chest discomfort. Muscle testing confirmed that her implants were contributing to these issues. Janna chose to undergo explant surgery, a process requiring meticulous removal of both the implants and surrounding capsules. During her six-month recovery, she revisited protocols such as keto dieting and lymphatic detox to support her healing. Mindset and Resilience in Healing At the core of Jonna's journey is her commitment to cultivating a strong, positive mindset—a cornerstone of her approach to overcoming both Lyme disease and BII. She emphasizes that "our actions follow our thoughts," underscoring the power of belief in recovery. Jonna's experiences reinforced that mental resilience, paired with self-compassion, is essential when facing the daily challenges of chronic illness. This belief in the mind-body connection enabled her to persevere through difficult treatments and stay committed to her wellness goals, demonstrating the profound impact of mindset on long-term healing. Books by Janna Johnson Janna is the author of _Unf*ck Your Mind, which explores overcoming life's challenges through mental resilience and self-compassion. Her upcoming book details her Lyme disease journey and provides readers with more information on her personalized healing protocols. Key Takeaways for Those on a Chronic Illness Journey Dietary Changes are Foundational: Reducing sugars and carbohydrates can significantly impact inflammation and gut health, especially for those battling chronic illness. The Power of Essential Oils: When used properly, essential oils like cinnamon bark, thyme, oregano, and tea tree oil can support the body's defense against microbes and biofilms. Detox Support is Vital: Methods like dry brushing, infrared saunas, and regular exercise help the body eliminate toxins and reduce Lyme symptoms. Mindset and Perseverance: Janna emphasizes that mental resilience is just as essential as any physical treatment in the healing process. Join Janna Johnson in this episode as she shares her inspiring journey, from Texas to full health, while discussing the strategies and mindset that helped her overcome Lyme disease, breast implant illness, and chronic health issues. Her message is one of hope, resilience, and the belief that recovery is possible with a dedicated, holistic approach.

I remember when I first started practicing as a midwife—way back in the '80s—there was barely a whisper about how nutrition could impact pregnancy. I taught my first prenatal nutrition class in 1990, and the hunger for information was almost palpable. It's amazing to me that, fast forward to today, we're still facing a gap in understanding just how much food and lifestyle choices affect both mom and baby. But here's the thing—there's so much hope and possibility when we're armed with the right information, and today's guest has dedicated her life to providing just that.I'm beyond excited to introduce you to Lily Nichols. Lily is a registered dietitian, nutritionist, and certified diabetes educator who is passionate about making pregnancy health both understandable and achievable. Her journey into this work is rooted in a deeply personal mission: she saw firsthand how powerful nutrition could be in preventing complications like gestational diabetes, and she wanted to share that knowledge with as many women as possible. Her books, Real Food for Gestational Diabetes and Real Food for Pregnancy, have helped countless women take control of their health during such an important time.In today's episode, Lily and I dive deep into some powerful truths about gestational diabetes—how it's on the rise but, more importantly, how it can be prevented and even reversed with simple, mindful changes. We'll talk about why so many women still aren't given this information, how the right nutrition can truly change the trajectory of your pregnancy, and practical steps anyone can take. We'll even touch on how blood sugar testing is done differently around the world—and why those differences matter.Whether you're pregnant, planning to be, or just curious about how your body responds to food, there's so much to take away from this conversation. It's about more than just numbers on a blood test; it's about learning to listen to your body, trust yourself, and make small changes that have a lasting impact on your health—and the health of your baby.So grab a cup of tea, settle in, and let's get into this empowering and eye-opening conversation with Lily Nichols. I think you're going to walk away feeling hopeful, informed, and ready to take charge of your health in a whole new way.Looking for supplements for yourself and your family, including some of those I talk about in episodes?

I think most of us women at some point have wished for the day where we no longer had to suffer through our bleed days…but what happens when that joke amongst girlfriends turns into a really life decision? In the US, 1 in 3 women will undergo a hysterectomy in her lifetime (Dr. Aviva Romm in Hormone Intelligence). In some cases this is a life or death choice, like it was for Robyn Birkin. A hysterectomy, regardless if it was an emergency or a planned procedure, comes with a lot of physical and emotional challenges. Today on the podcast Robyn shares her story of having to have a hysterectomy in her 30's and how she found tools to navigate making this decision in an emergency situation, as well as how she has found a way to live cyclical even without her uterus. In this episode we explore: How having a doctor who is willing to support you and have in depth discussions around your options is key in the process of making the right decision for you Why it's important to not be afraid to ask all the hard questions and be the squeaky wheel before making making medical decisions? Tools to help you navigate these moments of uncertainty Post hysterectomy and what Robyn wishes someone would have told her about a live without her uterus? How to live cyclical when you don't have a uterus? Robyn Birkin is a fertility warrior who ended up having a grade 4 placenta previa with her 2nd daughter that resulted in an emergency hysterectomy at the age of 35. For years she ran a successful fertility coaching business supporting women on their fertility journey and has now created a new business as a Women's Business Consultant to support women in wanting to grow their business while doing less. She is all about creating balance and encouraging women to stay connected to their feminine energy to thrive as an entrepreneur.

Not only is Frieda a really cool person, but she shared so much wide-ranging and in-depth information about this beautiful and medicinal herb! I loved angelica before this interview. Now I feel like I'm falling for it even more and I know you're going to love it, too. Don't miss downloading your free recipe card for Frieda's Candied Angelica Root for a delicious way to enjoy angelica's many gifts:► Many herbal systems call for moving stagnation before doing anything else - see what that means exactly and how angelica is especially suited to helping.► Are you amped up all night and then exhausted in the morning? Find out what may be causing that and how angelica could help.► The unique ways that angelica supports digestion.► and more…By the end of this episode, you'll know:► When to turn to dong quai (Angelica sinensis) and when to turn to angelica (Angelica archangelica)► Who should avoid angelica – and when?► Who is angelica particularly supportive for?► How to develop your plant ID eye (always important, but especially when a plant has a toxic look-alike, as angelica does)For those of you who don't already know her, Frieda Kipar Bay is an herbalist, movement artist, writer, and educator. She began her formal study of the plants at the California School of Herbal Studies. She went on to apprentice with The Herbal Apothecary for two years, study with Aviva Romm and Matthew Wood, and seed Taproot Medicine, a small line of potent herbal syrups. As she began working clinically, she found the need for more diagnostic skill, and over the next 4 years, embarked on a journey into reading the tongue, pulse, and face primarily under the direction of acupuncturists Brian LaForgia and Will Morris. This work has brought her to her current study of Daoist Medicine Theory, Qigong, and Daoist dream diagnosis. She has volunteered as part of the MASHH Collective, the Botanical Bus, and the People's Medicine Project, and taught advanced coursework through Gathering Thyme Herb School, Scarlet Sage, and her own apprenticeships.

If you weren't paying attention to your health before the last few years, you are now. Question is, what should we actually be paying attention to? And, are there major things, early or even real-time indicators that could tell us how our day-to-day choices are affecting everything from our energy to level of pain, inflammation, fatigue, mental health and risk of chronic illness or life-altering disease, but that most of us are missing? These are the questions I pose to today's guest, Dr. Casey Means, as we explore the world of metabolic and mitochondrial health and how technology is now becoming available on more of a mass scale that can help us reclaim control over so many aspects of our immediate and long-term wellbeing. And even guide our behavioral choices, from food to movement to meditation in real-time. And, I also share my own experience running my own, personal experiments with this emerging tech.You can find Casey at: Levels Website | Casey's Instagram | Levels InstagramIf you LOVED this episode you'll also love the conversations we had with Dr. Aviva Romm about hormones, well-being, and the struggles of modern healthcare.Check out our offerings & partners: My New Book SparkedMy New Podcast SPARKED: We're looking for special guest “wisdom-seekers” to share the moment you're in, then pose questions to Jonathan and the Sparked Braintrust to be answered, “on air.” To submit your “moment & question” for consideration to be on the show go to sparketype.com/submit.

If a magic pill existed that could transform the health of your brain and keep it from aging as you got older, would you take it? We all know that as we age, so does our brain. And with it comes some less-than-favorable effects on cognitive functions like memory, focus, and productivity that might leave you wishing for your more youthful days. But what if there was a way to make our brains more age-proof and less prone to signs of aging like memory loss or even dementia? My guest today, Dr. Milstein has conducted research on topics including cancer biology and neuroscience, and his work has been published in multiple scientific journals. His new book, The Age-Proof Brain: New Strategies to Improve Memory, Protect Immunity, and Fight Off Dementia, reveals the secrets to improving brain function, and in today's episode, he joins me to share some of those brain-boosting strategies discussed in his book, debunks common misinformation about the aging brain, and even lay out the red flags to look out for as you grow older.
