THE BETTER BELLY PODCAST - Gut Health Transformation Strategies for a Better Belly, Brain, and Body
Do you have the MTHFR gene mutation, and feel like it may be what's holding you back from healing?Or - do you not know if you have the MTHFR gene SNP, but wonder if you have it, how much it might be impacting you healing, and what the best testing is for it? If you have ANY question as to how much the MTHFR gene may be impacting your healing, then you DON'T want to miss today's episode. On today's episode, I'm interviewing Functional Genomics expert, Jaclyn Downs, on all things MTHFR and gene mutations. I met Jaclyn recently in the Instagram comments section of my profile when she offered up some free help to someone asking a question about genes. I love Jaclyn's response so much, and upon doing some quick stalking, fell even more in love with her knowledge and approach to genes. Naturally - I just had to have her on the podcast to share her with you all. A bit about Jaclyn: Jaclyn has a master's degree in Holistic Nutrition, a functional nutrigenomics certification from the NutriGenetic Research Institution, and is the author of the academically published book Enhancing Fertility Through Functional Medicine: Using Nutrigenomics to Solve ‘Unexplained' Infertility. On top of gaining her functional nutrigenomics certification from the NutriGenetic Research Institution, Jaclyn helped to create the very same program by working a researcher for Bob Miller, a top genetics researcher, to help create his practitioner certification program. Whether you are new to the conversation on how genes impact our health, or you've been in it a while, I hope my conversation today with Jaclyn is going to help you feel empowered and hopeful that no matter what genes you have - you CAN heal your body.

In February of 1975, fans in the NHL had to do a double take when they looked at the standings. That's because alongside the Montreal Canadiens and the defending champion Flyers was a rag-tag group of castoffs who scored just often enough to give their goalie a lead, and he would do the rest. Rogie Vachon and the L.A. Kings were playing inspiring hockey and were on the cover of Sports Illustrated this week 50 years ago. After winning three Stanley Cups in Montreal, Vachon was now in his 4th season in Southern California and the 5'7 goaltender was bigger than ever as fans began to really notice they had something special as the last line of defense at the Forum in Inglewood. "Save, Vachon!" was a common phrase heard numerous times a game from Bob Miller, the voice of the Kings and a special bond between Rogie and the fans of L.A. was formed. He would go on to be the first player in Kings history to have his number retired in 1985 and 30 years later, he was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame. Despite never winning a Cup after his playing days in Montreal ended, Vachon made a lasting impression on Los Angeles as both a player and a General Manager. In 1988, under the ownership of Bruce McNall, Vachon was instrumental in making one of the biggest deals in sports history acquiring Wayne Gretzky from the Edmonton Oilers. The Great One was now in L.A. and the NHL was about to explode on the West Coast. Hear how this hockey lifer who played as a kid with the grown ups and slept in the car when they would go grab a beer afterwards came from a rural farm in Canada and ended up being a member of royalty in L.A.
