Are your hormones running your life, and not in a good way? If you are struggling with fatigue, mood swings, weight gain, or sleepless nights, this episode is the missing piece you have been looking for. Understanding hormone balance is not just about estrogen and progesterone. It starts much earlier in the hormonal chain, and getting to the root cause changes everything.In this episode of Salad with a Side of Fries, host Jenn Trepeck sits down with Dr. Andrea Colon, a naturopathic doctor and founder of Reclaim Integrative in Newport Beach, California, who specializes in women's hormone health and metabolic medicine. Together, they walk through the steps for lifestyle, nutrition, supplementation, and bioidentical hormone replacement therapy to restore balance, energy, and vitality. From understanding why cortisol imbalance is the upstream driver of so many symptoms women dismiss as inevitable aging, to exploring how to balance hormones naturally for women before ever adding HRT, this conversation is both practical and empowering.What You Will Learn in This Episode:✅ Why cortisol imbalance is the overlooked driver behind perimenopause symptoms, disrupted sleep, and stubborn menopause weight gain, and how chronic stress depletes your hormone production over time✅ How to use foundational nutrition strategies, including adequate protein intake, quality carbohydrates, and consistent meals, to begin restoring hormone balance before reaching for supplements or medications✅ Which key micronutrients, including vitamin D, iron, and B vitamins, are commonly depleted in women and how those deficiencies directly suppress healthy hormone function✅ How practitioners assess when lifestyle and herbs are enough versus when bioidentical hormone replacement therapy is the appropriate next step, including the role of pregnenolone, DHEA, and testosterone in womenThe Salad With a Side of Fries podcast, hosted by Jenn Trepeck, explores real-life wellness and weight-loss topics, debunking myths, misinformation, and flawed science surrounding nutrition and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store.TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 Dr. Andrea Colon shares why restrictive diets backfire and how skipping meals worsens cortisol imbalance and hormone balance in women03:54 Dr. Colon shares her personal journey to naturopathic medicine after battling cystic acne 06:48 How stress and hormones connect and why women in their early 40s are entering perimenopause earlier due to cortisol09:16 Nutrition foundations for hormone balance, including protein, complex carbs, and avoiding coffee on an empty stomach 12:04 The truth about exercise and cortisol, why over-training causes menopause, weight gain and disrupts hormone function 14:39 Why sleep is the most underrated tool for hormone health and why catching up on sleep is a myth 18:53 Supplement strategies including vitamin D, iron, B vitamins, ashwagandha, and rhodiola for adrenal support 23:29 When to consider bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, including pellets, patches, creams, and pregnenolone29:05 Using a GLP-1 properly and when it is neededKEY TAKEAWAYS:

Nicotinic acid, in its various forms, is the subject of a fairly heated debate over its fantastic properties when it comes to anti-aging, Schizophrenia, alcoholism, and trauma. This vitamin falls under the shadow of Dr. Abram Hoffer, a hotly debated character in the annals of psychiatric history. Conspiracy theories about the pharmaceutical-psychiatric industrial complex abound regarding Dr. Hoffer's ostensibly debunked studies. What's not debated is that he was a quintessential healer and highly committed to the advancement of orthomolecular medicine.I've been taking it for years; it's one of the most affordable anti-aging agents, and I think it's one of the best supplements to include in your daily stack.5:00 Scientific Research5:33 Niacin vs Niacinamide vs Nicotinamide7:13 The Niacin Flush9:16 History11:12 Vs Schizophrenia13:13 Vs Alcoholism16:16 For Trauma Survivors18:32 The B Vitamin from Outer Space?19:12 Antiaging Mechanism21:13 Obesity vs Antiaging23:45 Cognition25:09 Got wifi?

The Hidden Causes of Brain Fog, Anxiety, and Chronic Illness: Mold, Parasites, Histamine, and Low Cortisol If you're exhausted, inflamed, and can't figure out why, the answer might be hiding in your histamine, your hormones, your home, or something living inside you that your doctor will never test for. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Dr. Jessica Peatross, a former hospitalist turned functional medicine powerhouse who walked away from a conventional medical career after discovering that 90% of disease traces back to lifestyle, environment, and the toxins most doctors ignore. After graduating magna cum laude and earning her medical degree from the University of Louisville, Dr. Jess pursued training in functional medicine, nutrigenomics, and alternative therapies, and now helps thousands of patients reverse chronic illness through her KillBindSweat method and WellnessPlus app. She is also the formulator and CMO of Aegis Formulas and a leading voice at international health conferences. If chronic illness, mold toxicity, or hormonal chaos is on your radar, she is the person you want in your corner. Together, Dave and Dr. Jess go deep into the hidden drivers of mystery symptoms that functional medicine is finally starting to crack open. They cover why low cortisol is more dangerous than high cortisol, how histamine and mast cell activation syndrome explain everything from anxiety and brain fog to endometriosis and POTS, and why most "Lyme disease" is actually undiagnosed mold toxicity. They also break down the parasite epidemic hiding in plain sight across the United States, the B vitamin mistake making millions of people sicker, and why your metabolism, mitochondria, and mental health are all downstream of things your standard lab panel will never catch. This episode also gets into the real story behind Dr. Jess surrendering her California medical license rather than comply with a system she believed was working against patient health. Her firsthand account of the medical board process is something every person who cares about medical freedom needs to hear. You'll Learn: Why everyone who is chronically sick has a low cortisol awakening response and what to do about it How histamine drives anxiety, racing thoughts, palpitations, bloating, skin issues, and hormonal chaos Why 90% of people diagnosed with Lyme disease actually have toxic mold and how to test for both The parasite epidemic in the U.S. and why standard testing misses most of it How the spike protein reactivates dormant viruses and feeds the histamine loop behind long COVID Why synthetic B6 causes the very neuropathy it is supposed to fix, and what to take instead The cortisol, adrenaline, and blood pressure connection that explains "wired but tired" How progesterone stabilizes mast cells and why estrogen dominance fuels inflammation and reactivity Why Dave Asprey uses low-dose cortisol, dexamethasone, and modafinil as part of his daily performance stack The mold binders that actually work, and which popular ones can harm hypermobile people How nicotine at low doses blocks spike protein from ACE2 receptors and protects the brain What the MTHFR gene, methylation, and folic acid have to do with breast cancer, depression, and estrogen detox Thank you to our sponsors! - iRestore | Reverse hair loss at www.irestore.com/DAVE and get exclusive savings on the iRestore Elite, use code DAVE - KILLSwitch | If you're ready for the best sleep of your life, order now at https://www.switchsupplements.com/and use code DAVE for 20% off - Calroy | Go to Calroy.com/DAVE for exclusive discounts on Arterosil HP, Vascanox HP and all Calroy products. - Cowboy Colostrum | Get your gut right by going to cowboycolostrum.com/asprey for 25% off of your entire order. -Amp | If you're ready to make fitness fit into your life, go to amp.ai to check it outDave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.

Dr. Corey Schuler, PhD(c), FNP, DC, CNS, and director of medical affairs at Allergy Research Group, details his paper “Energy Allocation Resilience and Endocrine Integration” in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences. He introduces the Energy Allocation System (EAS), which emphasizes how the body allocates energy—not just produces it—and links many symptoms to impaired bioenergetics and resilience. They discuss mitochondria as energy generators and cellular signaling hubs, the integrated stress response and endocrine coordination (HPA axis, thyroid, gonads), and mitohormesis/eustress (exercise, fasting, heat/cold, circadian “zeitgebers”). Schuler explains nuanced testing for fatigue (diurnal cortisol, CGM patterns, thyroid markers including T3/reverse T3) and a case of a perimenopausal woman where oral contraceptives and cortisol dysregulation affected glucose patterns. They cover mitochondrial support (removing obstacles like pollutants/antibiotics, triglycerides, carnitine, dietary fats, micronutrients) and pacing/sequencing lifestyle interventions.

Dopamine controls your motivation, focus, mood, and reward system — and most people are running low without realizing it. In this episode, Nurse Doza breaks down what dopamine actually does in the body, why deficiency is far more common than most people think, how your gut produces 50% of it, and the natural steps you can take to restore healthy levels. FEATURED PRODUCT: BLISS Bliss by MSW Nutrition is a lemon-flavored sublingual powder built around SAMe and TMG — two powerful methyl donors that directly support your body's natural dopamine and serotonin production through the methylation pathway. If you're feeling flat, foggy, or low-mood, methylation may be the missing link. One powder stick dissolved on your tongue — no water needed — and you may feel the difference within seconds to minutes. Bliss also supports glutathione production, liver health, and MTHFR function, making it one of the most targeted neurotransmitter support supplements available.

What if the reason you're not getting anything done has nothing to do with laziness, lack of discipline, or poor time management? Brain fog is a biological response to overwhelm, and once you understand what is driving it, clearing it becomes a matter of strategy rather than willpower.On Salad with a Side of Fries, host Jenn Trepeck delivers one of her most personal and practical episodes yet, tracing her own experience of brain fog through months of compounding stress and sharing every tool that helped her climb back out. From targeted nutritional supplements like magnesium, ashwagandha, and activated B vitamins, to the biochemical power of novelty, strength training, and social connection, Jenn lays out a morning, midday, and evening framework built around activation, adaptation, and restoration. This is not a surface-level conversation about productivity hacks. This is the science of resilience building applied to real life, with real results.What You Will Learn in This Episode:✅ Why brain fog is not a discipline problem but a biological response to layered overwhelm, and how the gut-brain connection, postbiotics, and targeted antioxidants work together beneath the surface to restore cognitive function and get your brain fully back online.✅ How movement goes far beyond the gym: why changing your walk route, adding intervals, doing squats before a meeting, and keeping light weights nearby are all proven strategies for increasing blood flow and boosting brain energy throughout the day.✅ Why novelty is one of the most powerful and underused tools for mental clarity, and how activities that demand your full attention, from learning a new language to trying a completely unfamiliar experience, actively protect against cognitive decline and sharpen neural connections.✅ How the foods you eat and the ones you avoid directly shape your brain health, why dark leafy greens, blueberries, and beans support memory and slow cognitive decline, and why ultra-processed foods are directly linked to dementia, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease.The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast, hosted by Jenn Trepeck, explores real-life wellness and weight-loss topics, debunking myths, misinformation, and flawed science surrounding nutrition and the food industry.

What if your gut has been signaling a problem for your brain for years? That is exactly what the latest science on the gut microbiome and Parkinson's disease is revealing, and it begins with something as overlooked as constipation. If you have ever dismissed a sluggish digestive system as no big deal, this conversation may be the most important one you hear all year.Salad With a Side of Fries host Jenn Trepeck welcomes Martha Carlin, microbiome researcher, founder of The BioCollective and a woman who traded a corporate career for a microscope after her husband was diagnosed with Parkinson's at 44. What she has uncovered about gut bacteria, endotoxin load, the glycocalyx, and neurological decline is both startling and deeply actionable. This is not fear, it is fuel for better choices.What You Will Learn in This Episode:✅ Why chronic constipation is far more than a digestive inconvenience and how waste sitting in the colon produces an endotoxin load now linked to Parkinson's, depression, autism, and diabetes.✅ What the glycocalyx is, why it matters for everything from gut health to cardiovascular function, and how damage to this critical structure can spread throughout the entire body over time.✅ How H. pylori consumes dopamine in the gut, why that interaction may explain why Parkinson's disease medications lose effectiveness, and what the research from Harvard reveals about this connection.✅ The surprising ways that endurance athletics, over-cleaning with quaternary ammonium compounds, and glyphosate-exposed foods all quietly assault the gut microbiome and compound your risk over time.The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast, hosted by Jenn Trepeck, explores real-life wellness and weight-loss topics, debunking myths, misinformation, and flawed science surrounding nutrition and the food industry.

Resveratrol + Copper Research, Plus Grain-Free Strategies for Stalled Weight Loss: Leyla Muedin, a registered dietitian nutritionist, answers listener emails. She reviews a small India study (BJC Reports, published September 30, 2025) in which 10 glioblastoma patients awaiting surgery received resveratrol (5.6 mg) and copper (560 ng) four times daily for about 11.6 days, compared with 10 controls; the combination generated reactive oxygen species that deactivated cell-free chromatin particles in the tumor microenvironment and reduced cancer hallmarks. Asked whether this could be prophylactic against cancer, she says it is unknown and requires replication in larger studies, advising supplement use be discussed with a practitioner. She then addresses grain elimination for stalled weight loss: replace grains with more meat and non-starchy vegetables, think beyond typical breakfast foods by using leftovers, and use small portions of starchy vegetables (e.g., squash or potato) if starch helps sleep. She recommends investigating root causes of anxiety and poor sleep and suggests moderation for foods like oatmeal.

High levels of homocysteine have been linked to brain atrophy and dementia. Taking B vitamins may be a low-cost way to help protect brain health.However, past research reviews have shown mixed results, and it's not clear why the findings have been inconsistent. The overall quality of the evidence has also not been carefully evaluated.In this episode, Editor-in-Chief Douglas Taren talks with Ross Grant, co-author of the featured article.

Send a textFatigue. Mood swings. Irregular cycles. Anxiety. Low motivation.If you've experienced any of these and been told your labs are “normal,” this episode is for you.In today's conversation, Kristin and Gina — hormone health coaches and co-owners of Stop Chasing Wellness — unpack how nutrient deficiencies quietly disrupt hormone balance and mental health.Hormones don't function in isolation. They rely on specific nutrients as building blocks and cofactors to be produced, converted, and cleared properly. When those nutrients are depleted, your mood is often the first place it shows up.We break down:• Why hormones require amino acids, cholesterol, iodine, and key micronutrients• How magnesium impacts anxiety, PMS, and sleep• The connection between B6, B12, and estrogen balance• Why iron and ferritin levels affect motivation and hair health• Vitamin D's role in mood, immunity, and thyroid function• Zinc and omega-3s for inflammation, resilience, and painful cycles• Why “normal” lab ranges aren't always optimal• The markers we consider: ferritin, vitamin D, a full thyroid panel, and homocysteine• Practical next steps — food-first foundations, strategic testing, and nervous system supportThis episode is a reminder that mood changes are not random — they're metabolic signals.Your symptoms aren't something to silence. They're something to investigate.Stop chasing wellness. Start building it strategically.Join us in our private Facebook group.

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Neil Levin, the Senior Nutrition Education Manager and a product formulator for NOW(r) Foods and Protocol for Life Balance. 

Nutritional Support for Brain Health: Lifestyle, Curcumin, Magnesium, and Key Nootropics: Nutrition educator/formulator Neil Levin from Protocol for Life Balance details nutritional support for brain health amid skepticism about “brain-boosting” supplements, citing a preprint randomized controlled trial using a multifaceted lifestyle plan (diet, exercise, sleep) plus targeted supplementation that reportedly improved and even reversed symptoms in people with mild cognitive impairment. They contrast lifestyle strategies with costly, side-effect-prone injectable “plaque-buster” Alzheimer's drugs and notes debate about whether amyloid is a root cause or byproduct. The conversation highlights inflammation and oxidation as major aging-related brain threats and reviews supplements including a brain-targeted curcumin (discussing bioavailability, delivery methods, blood–brain barrier crossing, and claims of lowering beta-amyloid protein), magnesium L-threonate for CNS delivery, phosphatidylserine and acetylcholine support (including huperzine), ginkgo and gotu kola, glutamine/GABA pathways, creatine, omega-3s (DHA/EPA and algae sources), B vitamins, acetyl-L-carnitine, alpha-lipoic acid, and cocoa flavanols, plus concerns about supplement industry enforcement.

Are you exhausted even though your lab work looks “normal”? Or are you taking B vitamins but not actually feeling the benefits? Bryana Gregory, Pharmacist and Physician Liaison with Physicians Preference Pharmacy, breaks down the powerful role of methylated B vitamins and why the form you take truly matters. B vitamins are essential for energy production, brain function, mood balance, detoxification, and proper nervous system support. However, not all B vitamins are created equal. Genetics, gut health, medication use, stress, and environmental toxicity can all impact your ability to properly absorb and utilize standard or synthetic forms like folic acid or cyanocobalamin. When the body cannot properly methylate (or activate) these vitamins, symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, headaches, neuropathy, mood changes, and poor focus may persist. Join Bryana today as she explains how methylated B vitamins provide a more bioavailable, active form that supports detoxification, cellular energy, and healthy gene function. She also highlights the advantages of sublingual delivery, which allows for improved absorption and lower dosing by bypassing the digestive tract. If you struggle with low energy, poor concentration, high stress, neurological symptoms, or known B12 or folate deficiencies, this episode will help you understand whether methylated B vitamins may be right for you.

Send us a textAre you familiar with Vitamin B12 Deficiency Symptoms in IBD? Those with Crohn's & Ulcerative colitis are at higher risk of being deficient in Vitamin B12 - especially those with Crohn's that have inflammation in the ileum. If you've got Vitamin B12 deficiency you may feel tired or weak which is a classic feature of type of megaloblastic anemia. This is why it's so important to test appropriately and treat B12 deficiencies.In our practice, we like to look at beyond just standard serum B12 labs - which can sometimes not be representative of B12 status. In this video we go over more on this. Vitamin B12 Deficiency Symptoms:-Tiredness or weakness-Pale skin-Heart palpitations-Loss of appetite-Weight loss-Infertility-Numb or tingly hands and feet, a sign of nerve problems-Problems with balance-Depression-Confusion-Dementia-Poor memory-Soreness of the mouth or tongueVitamin B12 plays an important role in energy production and mood regulation. Sometimes people with IBD utilize more nutrients when there is inflammation and can also have a decrease in absorption of  beneficial nutrients, like B12. We cover the signs of B12 deficiency and when to test for it.

As I have said in the previous episodes, if your health and wellness isn't at the top of the list of things to dial in this year then you are really selling yourself short. I believe that if we want to accomplish our goals, feel our best, and have the energy to do what we love… we must nurture our health and wellbeing first. It's a non- negotiable, because eventually the signs and signals your body is telling you will only get louder and no longer will you be able to ignore it. In today's episode, we focus on the importance of questioning why you don't feel your very best and exactly what you can do to get clear and actionable advice and direction of how to change that.  Welcome Adam Woolard on the show. He is a biohacking advocate and hormone health expert working with Blokes & Joi to help others reclaim their physical and mental wellness through peptide therapy, personalized supplementation, and holistic lifestyle tools.  Adam's approach to health and wellness goes beyond just treating symptoms; it's about addressing the root causes and fostering holistic well-being.  In todays episode we discuss: Hormone Health: The Importance of Diet and Exercise Factors Affecting Testosterone Levels Lifestyle Changes for Optimal Health The Importance of Comprehensive Blood Work Peptides in Health and Wellness The Role of B Vitamins in Energy and Metabolism and more For full show notes and episode resources head to: https://ericalippy.com/adam-woodlard/ Watch episode on YouTube Find our guest at: Adam Woolard: Website, Instagram Joi And Blokes: Discount Code: ERICAL; Offer: 50% off labs + 20% off all products Follow me on Social Media: Your Host: @ericalippy Podcast: @passionlovepursuit YouTube PASSION LOVE PURSUIT PODCASTS: https://ericalippy.com/the-podcast/  

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared introduces a refined Emotional Vitality format and tackles one of the most common struggles in modern life: overwhelm. Rather than being a mindset failure or lack of willpower, overwhelm is explained as a nervous system state—specifically a freeze response driven by brain chemistry and stress signaling. Jared breaks down what's happening neurologically, why procrastination is often protection, and how clarity and motivation shut down under chronic stress. You'll learn practical, science-grounded tools to regulate your nervous system through simple physical actions, breathing, language shifts, and small, specific steps that restore agency. Supplement support like magnesium, ashwagandha, L-theanine, and B vitamins is discussed as supportive—not corrective—tools. This episode is about skill-building, self-leadership, and learning how to move forward when life feels heavy.Products:Magnesium BisglycinateUltimate Vitality MultiActive B ComplexAnxiety ReleaseSensoril AshwagandhaL-TheanineVitality Radio POW!

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend!   I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks…   James:  Hi Dr. Cabral, I've noticed that when I increase my protein intake, my digestion and sleep actually get worse. Is this more likely a gut issue, a liver/bile issue, or something related to cortisol? How would you approach troubleshooting this?                                                                                                                                                                                   Mark: I've been doing all the "right things" sleep, nutrition, movement but my HRV remains low. How much weight should we give metrics like HRV versus how someone actually feels day to day?                                                                         Nancy: Hi Dr. Cabral, love your podcast and thank you so much for taking our questions! Is it possible to take too many b-vitamins? I have been very stressed and anxious lately and my local health food store recommended a stress b-complex. I noticed that every b-vitamin was 100mg across the whole label. Is this too much?     Thomas: I was watching your video on YouTube on your Hope4Cancer review when you went down there to check it out and then the video stopped playing half way through. Am I able to watch the rest of it? I have a family member with cancer and she was wondering about that place.     Farah: I am 7 months pregnant and worried about getting sick my last trimester. Is there anything I can do to prevent from getting sick. Any supplements, foods, or detox protocols that are safe to use while pregnant?    Thank you for tuning into this weekend's Cabral HouseCalls and be sure to check back tomorrow for our Mindset & Motivation Monday show to get your week started off right! - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/3621 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?
