Is your home hindering your health with Building Biologist Amanda Kletcher What do you think of when you think of health? Most of us think of the food we eat, physical activity, sleep, meditation or stress reduction activities. Maybe some even make up and skin care products and what cleaning products we use. But how many of us consider our homes when we think of our health? Not too many. Yet, we spend a lot of time in our homes. The health of our homes impacts our health immensely! Luckily, we can do so much to create our homes to be healthy havens! In this episode, I chat with Building Biology Practitioner Amanda Kletcher about how we can improve our health by improving the health of our homes. Amanda and I talk about: Why the health of our home matters Simple ways to start improving the health of your home today How to assess how healthy your home is Why start with the bedroom when making changes to your home How you can create a low tox home when renovating What to look for when buying a new home What to look for when painting, updating flooring or buying new furniture Amanda is a Certified Building Biology Practitioner through the International Institute for Building Biology where she learned the holistic approach to keeping a home healthy, free of moisture intrusion and free of toxins.

Joe Ailts is an agronomist and regenerative farmer in northwest Wisconsin with a deep passion for soil health and plant physiology. On his three-acre home farm, he grows competitive giant pumpkins, sweet corn, and market pumpkins using a regenerative approach that includes cover cropping with rye and Sudan grass. His experience in competitive pumpkin growing has fueled his interest in soil biology, leading him to experiment with mycorrhizal fungi inoculation and nutrient-dense crop production. Through his agronomy company, Ailts Agronomy, Joe works with row crop farmers to integrate soil health practices into their operations. He focuses on bridging the gap between regenerative and conventional farming, helping farmers implement biological inputs to enhance mycorrhizal colonization and crop performance. His research-backed approach has shown promising results, including significant yield responses in both corn following horseradish and in early-planted soybeans. In this episode, John and Joe discuss: How Joe's research with BioCoat Gold has demonstrated a five-bushel average per acre yield increase in corn The surprising ability of mycorrhizal fungi to colonize fungicide-treated seeds The benefits of using a rye cover crop system for weed control and moisture retention A 17-bushel yield increase in corn following horseradish The advantages of early-planted soybeans in northern climates  The role of Sudan grass in crop rotations Additional Resources To learn more about Joe and Ailts Agronomy, please visit: https://www.facebook.com/joe.ailts.96 About John Kempf John Kempf is the founder of Advancing Eco Agriculture (AEA).

The first rule in real estate is that you should NEVER waive your right to an inspection before closing the deal. The second rule is, make sure your inspector understands building biology, as well as the typical home systems and materials.  Your inspector needs to understand moisture, mold, chemical emissions and electro magnetic fields, in addition to structural concerns, windows, HVAC, etc.  Amanda Klecker joins us today to discuss what's all entailed in doing a substantial and truly informative home inspection and how we can avoid costly and unhealthy mistakes. Amanda is a Certified Building Biology Practitioner through the International Institute for Building Biology where she has learned the holistic approach to keeping a home healthy, free of moisture intrusion and free of toxins. Amanda has trained with the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors and received their national certification.  Amanda is also trained with the Water Quality Standards Academy, learning the important components of healthy drinking water.     Amanda's website Healthy House on the Block

Your home should be a healing sanctuary. We spend about 62% of our waking hours in our homes and basically 100% of our sleeping hours there. So you'd think we would optimize our homes for health, but the opposite is often true. From invisible toxins to mold and EMFs, many of our homes are actually making us sick. Our guest today is someone who calls himself a building biologist as well as a functional medicine doctor for your home, and his mission is to improve the health and lives of all people, in all buildings and communities, everywhere, every day. This is the Story of Building a Healthy Home with Ryan Blaser.EPISODE VIDEO HIGHLIGHTSWatch the Entire EpisodeHow to Test Your Home for Mold and EMF RisksSimple Ways to Identify Mold in Your HomeThe Hidden Health Threats in Your HomeHow to Limit EMF Exposure at HomeBreaking Free from the Convenience TrapTest My Home's Range of ServicesWhat is Building Biology?Test My Home's Success StoriesEasy Changes for a Healthier HomeWhat is Geopathic Stress?CONNECT WITH RYAN BLASERWebsite - Test My HomeInstagramFacebookTikTokYouTubeCONNECT WITH INNOVATIVE MEDICINE Website Instagram Facebook YouTube CONNECT WITH CASPAR SZULC Instagram X LinkedIn LEARN ABOUT NADOVIM - A BREAKTHROUGH IN BRAIN HEALTHDoctor-formulated, clinically-tested NAD+ supplement for focus, concentration and cognitive support.

Healthy Homes and Building Biology is all about empowering health and environmentally-conscious homeowners, designers, and builders, to create home environments that will enable each household member to thrive, without contributing to the destruction of our environment.Daniel is a German master carpenter working as the technical and training expert for Pro Clima Australia. He is working on a national scale to upskill the Australian construction industry to use modern methods of construction in the move to net zero energy buildings.He has decades of experience in timber construction and energy efficiency retrofitting of timber constructions to the highest EU standards. His expertise extends to a deep understanding of building physics and how to optimise insulation and building membrane installation for energy efficiency and moisture control. Involved heavily in R&D, he is tailoring his EU experience for customised solutions unique to commercial steel frame buildings in Australia.Through her own experiences with environmental illness and extensive research, Zara D'Cotta, Building Biology New Build Consultant, and founder of The Healthy Home, realised that unhealthy homes are making us sick. She has been on a mission to help families create healthier homes ever since.Specialising in healthy home design and building materials, Zara empowers homeowners and building industry professionals to make informed choices, to ensure the homes they create are not only better for the planet, but their own well-being too. Zara is a graduate of the Building Biology Institute in the USA, the only institution globally to offer a certification pathway for Building Biology students wanting to specialise in new builds.After initially studying healthy home design and building materials in Australia in 2020, she decided to pursue further studies in this specialist field, under the guidance of mentors in the fields of Building Biology, Building Science, Natural Building & Architecture, who have been pioneering the Building Biology (new build) space for 30 years.Luke Davies, founder of Davies Construction creates designs and builds with purpose. "At Davies, we know that when we design your space, we're designing for your unique lifestyle and wellness. We know your investment is an investment in your family and personal potential, with a mindful environment that keeps you grounded and creative."He began his company as a regular builder with entrepreneurial dreams. But 90% of building companies fail in the first 5 years because there's just no clear path for builders. When he started winning awards in 2012, it was great from the outside but really, the company was nearly underwater.That's when he decided that's it. There must be a better way to live life and run a business than following the norms and struggling. So, he hired a coach and explored his personal ambitions and eventually where he wanted to steer the business in the future. He soon discovered that our living spaces contribute to at least a third of our well-being and that I could make a real difference. I learned how to lead people and I learned how to create a seamless fulfillment experience with fixed budgets and timelines.Stewart Scholten from the Scholten Group are committed to building you the highest quality home with the smallest environmental impact achievable.As certified Passive House Builders, and as a family-run business with over 35 years of experience, the Scholten Group is committed to building you the highest quality home with the smallest environmental impact achievable we are boutique builders, offering a personal touch throughout the entire building process, working as a team through the entire design and construction process.

Most of us spend the majority of our time indoors, and unfortunately the notion "if I can't see it, it's not there" doesn't cut it. Some estimates say indoor air is 5 times more toxic than outdoor air! In this episode, we chat about WHERE these toxins are inside your home, including the usual suspects and some not-so-obvious ones. We also speak to SUSCEPTIBILITY. ie. What makes you more or less robust against the indoor air toxins you're exposed to. There's no such thing as toxin-FREE. It's about minimising your exposure and optimising your body's ability to process and get rid of them.Grab a cuppa and listen in as we tackle this BIG area of health.

It was quite a treat to have best selling author Ann Louise Gittleman to talk about a whole number of health related issues for both men and women. We started off talking about progesterone cream and how excess copper levels affect hormone levels. We spent quite a bit of time discussing how copper is really a dangerous thing when it's not absorbed properly and in the wrong amounts. Who knew copper could affect so many different systems in the body? We discussed how to get your copper levels tested, where people are being exposed to copper and most importantly how to get rid of copper from your body. We also talked about how copper can be in many superfoods like tea, organic cacao, and more. We also discussed how bread these days is very harmful to our health for many reasons. Bread is very high in sugar, and carbohydrates and lacks iodine which would have helped the thyroid gland had it been there. But they replaced what could have been healthy (iodine) with bromides which actually pulls what little iodine we have in our thyroids out of our bodies. Plus bread contains gluten (most of them anyway) which are incredibly hard to digest and most likely was kneaded using municipal tap water containing fluoride, chlorine and chloramine along with homeopathic residues of pharmaceutical medications along with....wait for it...chemotherapy and other drugs people are urinating out. Stop eating bread people. It's so harmful and about a hundred levels. Then we talked about how to get tested for your hormone levels, heavy metal toxicity, blood sugar levels, food allergies, mineral balances and so much more. She recommended a series of tissues samples, blood testing, hair analysis, urine samples, saliva tests and stool samples. I would HIGHLY recommend getting tested one way or another. Either go to her website and get tested once a year. What gets tested gets managed. You never know where you are in your health journey if you don't know your levels. I cannot recommend this enough! Lastly we talked about parasites. We talked about pin worms, round worms and so much more. We talked about how we get parasites and how to get rid of them. We also talked about some of the symptoms that parasites cause in our bodies. Fascinating information. :) I hope you enjoyed this podcast as much as we did.

#040 - Zara D'Cotta is a Building Biology New Build Consultant, Keynote Speaker & Founder of The Healthy Home. She discovered her passion for environmental health after going through cancer. Through her own experiences with environmental illness, including four years on the move from one ‘unhealthy' home to the next, and extensive research, Zara realised unhealthy homes are making us sick. She has been on a mission to help families make informed choices ever since.After experiencing mould symptoms in more homes than she could count, Zara woke up after her first night in a newly built home with stinging eyes, and experienced other symptoms during her first months in her new home. It was at this point she realised new builds can contribute to health problems too, and decided to learn all she could about home design and building materials so she can one day build her own healthy home, and play what part she can in changing the way homes are designed and built.Zara has spent the past three years studying Building Biology, with a specific focus on healthy home design and building materials, in Australia and the USA.In this conversation we talk about:Different chemicals contained in building materials and how they can be detrimental to healthHow to determine whether a building material is safe to use when it comes to the impacts on your health and the environmentWhy reclaimed and recycled building materials are not always the “healthiest” choiceThe limitations with the building codes when it comes to building materials and healthHow to reduce exposure to chemicals and “off-gassing” in your tiny home… and more!Find out more about the podcast and get the episode show notes & links here:https://tinyhouseconversations.com/040You can follow and work with Zara here:IG: https://www.instagram.com/zaradcotta_thehealthyhome/ LT: https://linktr.ee/zaradcotta You can follow my tiny adventures here:IG: https://www.instagram.com/tinyhouseconversationsFB:  https://www.facebook.com/tinyhouseconversations Tiny and Healthy Living Products and ServicesBlock Blue Light - Specialty light bulbs, downlights, sleep lamps, blue-blocking glasses and more, to reduce artificial light exposure and support healthy sleep.Link: https://tinyhouseconversations.com/bluelightDiscount code: thcpodcast for 10% off your orderTiny Easy - 3D Tiny House Designer - The first online design tool that lets you design your tiny house without needing any technical or design knowledge.Link: https://tinyhouseconversations.com/tinyeasydesignerDiscount code: LUCY75 for 75% off the first month of the Premium version.Sky Energy - Skybox and Skybox Mini - Off-grid solar systems for tiny homes.Link: https://skyenergy.com.au/skybox/Discount code: For $200 off your custom Skybox or Skybox Mini, call Sky Energy and ask for Steve.

#251 Nicole Bijlsma is a woman of passion, and her passion lies in environmental medicine. Nicole was a former naturopath and acupuncturist with 15 years of clinical experience who changed her career pathway to become a building biologist after noticing a strong correlation with many of her patients illnesses and health hazards in their home. Nicole is the author of the best seller Healthy Home, Healthy Family, was a columnist for Body+Soul (Herald Sun) and is frequently consulted by the media to comment on health hazards in the built environment (The 7PM Project, Sunrise, The Today Show, The Circle, Channel 7 News, Today Tonight, Channel 74, ABC radio, Fox FM, numerous webinars and podcasts). Nicole has thirty years experience lecturing at tertiary institutions in nutrition, Chinese Medicine and environmental medicine, and has published in peer-reviewed journals. Her extensive knowledge in environmental medicine has seen her speak at various conferences both in Australia and abroad (USA, Thailand and New Zealand).  Nicole single handedly established the building biology industry in Australia, was the former President of the Australasian Society of Building Biologists and established the Australian College of Environmental Studies in 1999 to educate people about the health hazards in the built environment. The college is the only institution in Australia to provide nationally accredited training in Building Biology and Feng Shui. Nicole is currently completing her PhD investigating health hazards in the built environment under the supervision of Professor Marc Cohen at RMIT. For information about her research In this episode we cover What different forms of mould related illness exist The obvious and not so obvious signs that a house may be experiencing issues with mould What may someone experience physically/emotionally when they are exposed to dampness Mould - is it all bad news or does it serve a purpose? Why is it important to get to the source (water damage) itself rather than being focused on mould. Nicole's thoughts on Clove oil, vinegar, bleach, and air purifiers (how effective or ineffective are they?) Following a flood how long does it take for mould to take hold? And what can we do to prevent? When mould has been identified in ones home, car or working environment, what steps should one take? And so much more

Awareness of Electro-Magnetic Fields (EMF) is increasing.People are becoming more conscious about the frequencies emitted from technological devices like phones, WiFi, computers, cell-phone towers, smart meters etc.But underneath these superficial frequencies emitted from man-made devices emits over 30 different types of harmful EMR fields in our homes and workplaces including Electromagnetic Radiation (EMR), Earth Radiation (Geopathic Stress), Bioplasmic Radiation (Human Generated), and Solar and Planetary Radiation imprints.This episode explores the subtle and powerful types of EMR and EMF thatḥumans are exposed to, and that you may have never even considered.  Health Practitioner Dylan Smith interviews Gerard Bini, the foremost Australian expert in the development of Electromagnetic Radiation (EMR) harmonizing products, as they reveal these “hidden frequency fields” and how to mitigate them.IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:☢️ Understanding & Measuring Solar Wind Speed☢️ Human Generated Radiation Imprints☢️ How to Measure Radiations Accurately☢️ The Effects of Radiation in The Human Physiology☢️ How Ancient Cultures Harmonised Geo-Electric Stressors☢️ Building Biology☢️ EMF Blocking Technology☢️ Being Conscious & Aware vs. Fearing EMFABOUT OUR GUEST: Gerard BiniGerard Bini, founder of Orgone Effects Australia and the foremost Australian expert in the development of Electromagnetic Radiation (EMR) harmonizing products, is a well-respected and internationally renowned Intuitive Building Biologist with 21 years' experience and research into EMF beyond the normal.Gerard has acute intuitive senses that have been honed over many years of practice.Intuitive processes fully involve scientific protocols of multiple testing, double-blind testing, surveys of experiments to track and neutralize different types of EMF fields to produce, over time, statistical data to back up the results of whatever we are testing.

The show from Shield Your Body brings you expert voices that clearly explain the science that matters to you, and the usable tips that you can use to live healthier, while defending against the health risks of modern day technologies.  In this episode we welcome Stephen Collette who is a widely-respected Building Biologist. As Stephen shares in this podcast, his role is to identify environmental stressors and toxicants that exist within a building and provide practical suggestions on how to improve the indoor environment.  During the show Stephen shares how he came to be involved in the sector, as a Building Biologist, when his wife and new born child got very sick, from what turned out to be mold. It was only through a trip away from the home - which resulted in the symptoms subsiding - that made Stephen suspect that their property might inadvertently be the root cause of the health problems. Through the extensive research and knowledge that he built up, on various subjects related to home-based wellbeing issues, he realised that by sharing his information on what he needed to know to protect his own family he could also make sure others didn't go through the same situation as his loved ones.   In this episode you will hear: What Stephen does as a Building Biologist The power of developing a greater understanding of our homes and our health How buildings work as part of our bodies and how they should be maintained How to get deeper sleep and making the bedroom as healthy as possible How EMF in the home affects our health For more information on the subject covered today head to https://www.shieldyourbody.com/ for resources, in-depth articles, free tips and PDF guides to learn all about EMF, health and protection.  For more information on Stephen and his work head to https://www.yourhealthyhouse.ca
