Foundations of Functional Women's Health – Calm, Digest, Nourish Feeling tired, bloated, or overwhelmed? Learn how stress, digestion, and lifestyle choices affect your health—and simple steps to start feeling better today! What you'll learn in this episode: Why conventional medicine often misses women's unique health needs How your nervous system affects digestion, hormones, and energy Easy ways to calm stress, support digestion, and nourish your body The importance of starting with small, sustainable habits Mentioned in this episode:
Today I'm talking about how to create a real safe space so your brain and body can downshift, regulate, and actually recover—especially when the world feels loud and chaotic. Even if you've been eating well, taking your supplements, moving your body, and still feel dysregulated, this might be the missing layer: your environment and boundaries. Why this matters We're processing more inputs than our nervous systems evolved for—constant news, social feeds, and everyone else's emotions at work and at home. That unseen load keeps cortisol revved and makes it hard to feel grounded, sleep deeply, and digest well. If you don't have a calm place to land, everything feels harder. What I cover in this episode The nervous system cost of "always on" and why your stress response takes longer to reset now. How to spot dysregulation at home (it's often not about the puppy, the purchase, or the dinner choice). Creating sanctuary in real life when you share space with others—and they're dysregulated too. Boundaries that lower friction (what we discuss, when we discuss it, and why timing matters). The power of temporary unplugging: how 48 hours off social + dim evenings can change your sleep and mood within days. Scripts that help in the moment so you can opt-out of hot-button conversations without escalating conflict. Why rest isn't laziness (yes, I want you to schedule the nap—your cortisol curve will thank you). Practical steps you can start tonight Evening calm protocol (90 minutes): soft lighting only, no overheads; music or quiet; screens off at a set time. House rules that preserve peace: choose one window per week for budget/"new purchase" talks; table all non-urgent ideas until then. Weekend reset: tell your people you're going phone-off from Friday night to Sunday night; no news, no feeds. Conversation boundaries: pleasant/creative topics on weeknights; heavier topics reserved for agreed times. Sanctuary cues: a chair, blanket, tea, journal—same place, same time—so your body learns "we're safe now." Micro-breaks that count: 10-minute outside walks, eyes off screens, slow exhales (4 seconds in, 6–8 seconds out). Permission to rest: if afternoon fatigue hits, a 20–30 minute nap is a tool, not a failure. What changes when you do this Sleep comes easier and feels deeper. Mood smooths out; reactivity drops. Digestion calms (less bloat, better motility). Clarity returns—you can actually see what to work on next. Ready for a guided first week?

If you're overwhelmed by all the health advice and not sure where to start, this episode is your simple, targeted on-ramp. I'm breaking down exactly how just 7 focused days can nudge your hormones, nervous system, energy, mood, and digestion in the right direction—without complicated protocols or expensive gadgets. (Gary, my Springer spaniel, also makes a cameo… and yes, petting him is great for cortisol.) Why 7 Days Works (and what we actually target) Instead of trying to fix everything at once, we stack a few high-leverage habits that calm the nervous system, steady blood sugar, and support digestion—so your hormones can follow suit. You'll know what to do and what to try next if your first step doesn't land. Our three pillars: Energy: Create better mornings by prepping your nights (sleep hygiene + gentle cortisol "turn-on" routine). Mood: Steadier blood sugar + specific fast-acting herbs and nutrient repletion you can feel, while longer-build supports get started. Digestion: Simple shifts that reduce bloat, improve motility, and help you actually absorb what you eat. What You'll Learn in This Episode How to stop the overwhelm and pick the first right step (and the second, if needed). AM/PM routines that signal your hormones at the right time (sleep → morning energy). The 80/20 of blood sugar regulation for mood steadiness all day. Quick-win gut supports to reduce bloat and re-train digestion. A clear troubleshooting path if your first attempt doesn't move the needle. Why short, focused action breaks the freeze state and builds momentum. Real-Life Impact I share client stories (including one who was at a serious crossroads in her marriage) where regulating mood and stabilizing energy revealed the next obvious target—sleep and gut. Once the fog lifted, the path forward got clear and doable. What Can Shift in 7 Days Days 1–2: Deeper sleep onset, fewer middle-of-the-night wakeups, less morning grogginess. Days 3–4: Smoother energy curve; fewer crashes; less "hanger." Days 5–7: Noticeable mood steadiness, reduced reactivity, lighter bloat/pressure, more "I feel like myself." (Everyone's timeline is unique, but these are the common early wins.) What's Inside the 7-Day Plan Daily AM/PM checklists (so you don't have to think). Meal framework for blood sugar balance without counting or apps. Mini mood protocol (quick-start nutrients + herbs that act faster). Digestion reset basics (timing, bitters, fiber progression, gentle motility cues). If-this-then-that troubleshooting when Plan A doesn't click. Weekend strategy so you don't lose momentum. Is This For You? You wake up tired, snap more than you want to, and bloat is "just normal." You've tried "all the things" but need a simple, guided first week to gain traction. You're not ready for full testing yet—but want to do something that actually helps. Ready to Start? Join the 7-Day Recharge If you want a done-for-you, step-by-step week to Restore Energy, Reset Mood & Renew Digestion, hop into 7-Day Recharge.

In this episode, I explore one of the most fascinating relationships in the body — the gut-brain axis — and how our digestion and mental health are intimately connected. As a clinical herbalist and a practitioner of plant spirit medicine, I've seen how tending the gut can calm the mind, lift the heart, and bring us back into balance.We'll look at the science behind this connection — how the vagus nerve, neurotransmitters, and the gut microbiome shape our mood, focus, and emotional resilience. I'll also share how stress and inflammation disrupt these pathways, and what we can do to restore communication between the gut and brain.
In this episode, I sit down again with Mindy English, Orthopedic & Pelvic Health PT with a background in sports and orthopedics based here in Eagle, Idaho. Mindy and I have done several episodes together as part of our pelvic health series for female athletes, and this one takes on a topic that doesn't get enough attention: constipation, gut health, and how they connect to pelvic floor symptoms. We dive into how digestion, nutrition, and pelvic health are deeply interconnected—and how constipation can affect everything from athletic performance to prolapse symptoms. Mindy shares what she sees clinically in both adults and kids, and we talk through why simply “eating more fiber” often isn't the full solution. This conversation is real, relevant, and full of practical takeaways for athletes, coaches, and anyone who's ever struggled with gut issues or pelvic health symptoms.

E344: The Constipation Epidemic - Natural Solutions for Poop Problems (From Infants to Adults) | The Prime Podcast Are you or someone in your family struggling with constipation? It's far more common than you think, affecting over half the population – from newborns to seniors. Yet, it's often dismissed as "normal" or incorrectly labeled as "hereditary." In Episode 344 of The Prime Podcast, Dr. Skip Wyss and Dr. Julie Wyss declare this a true constipation epidemic and dive deep into the real causes and natural solutions. This comprehensive discussion covers everything you need to know about achieving healthy bowel function. The doctors explore essential nutritional strategies, emphasizing the importance of magnesium, proper hydration, movement, and why choosing plant soluble fiber over common supplements like Metamucil (psyllium) is crucial for feeding your vital microbiome. They also discuss the temporary effects of stimulants like caffeine. Beyond diet and lifestyle, this episode highlights the critical, often-overlooked neurological connection to gut health. Learn how: Your nervous system is the master controller of your entire GI tract. The birth process can create misalignments impacting infant pelvic nerves and leading to early constipation. Digestion begins in the mouth, and issues like poor latch can affect the whole system. Introducing solids (especially bananas) before a baby gets their first tooth can disrupt the gut, contributing to leaky gut and future food sensitivities. Chronic GI conditions like Crohn's or IBS are NOT genetically predetermined (hereditary myth) but often stem from impaired neurological communication. Dr. Skip and Dr. Julie explain what constitutes a healthy bowel movement (and why it should feel good!) versus signs of dysfunction like hemorrhoids or pain. Discover practical tips like the corn/beet test for transit time and understand why addressing the neurological root cause through chiropractic care is key to resolving constipation for good. Trending Terms Explained: Constipation: Difficulty or infrequency in passing stools. Discussed as a widespread epidemic, not a normal state. Plant Soluble Fiber: Fiber from plant sources (vegetables, fruits) that feeds the microbiome, essential for gut health. Contrasted with psyllium husk (Metamucil). Microbiome: The community of bacteria in the GI tract influencing digestion, immunity, and brain function – your "second brain." Leaky Gut: Increased intestinal permeability, allowing particles into the bloodstream, potentially caused by introducing solids too early. Nervous System Control: The brain and nerves regulate all digestive processes; interference (subluxation) can cause constipation or diarrhea. Birth Process Trauma: Physical stress during birth potentially causing misalignments that affect nerves controlling infant bowel function. Hereditary (Myth): Debunking the idea that constipation or diseases like Crohn's are genetic, highlighting neurological response patterns instead. Key Takeaways: Constipation is common but NOT normal or hereditary. Aim for 1-2 comfortable bowel movements daily. Focus on hydration, movement, magnesium, and PLANT SOLUBLE fiber. Your nervous system dictates gut function – address the root cause. Birth trauma is a major factor in infant constipation. Wait for the first tooth before introducing solids to prevent leaky gut. Chiropractic care is vital for optimizing the nervous system control of the GI tract. CALL TO ACTION: Stop normalizing constipation! If you or your child are struggling, seek answers that address the root cause. A pediatric or family chiropractor focused on the nervous system can be a key part of your health team.

Hydration Myths & Facts: Why Drinking Ice Water May Not Be Ideal. Nutritionist Leyla Muedin delves into the often-overlooked aspects of hydration, particularly focusing on the potential drawbacks of drinking ice-cold water. She explains the effects of excessively cold water on digestion and overall health, citing insights from experts like Dr. Harry Emrich. Leyla highlights why traditional practices and scientific evidence suggest that cool rather than cold water is more beneficial, especially during warm weather. Additionally, the episode offers practical advice on maintaining hydration through alternative methods, such as consuming water-rich fruits and vegetables, and the potential hazards of certain beverages like hot caffeinated drinks and alcohol during heat waves.
Today, we'll examine an important debate in nutrition: whether skipping breakfast or skipping dinner is more effective for your health and metabolism. We'll unpack what the research says, how your body's internal clock affects metabolism, and why the timing of your last meal can make or break your weight loss—especially if you're on a GLP-1 medication like semaglutide, dual GIP/GLP-1 like tirzepatide, or triple agonist like retatrutide.

You'll find some amazing brands we trust—and by checking them out, you're helping us keep the podcast going. https://pepties.com/partners/ Let's get into it. Circadian Rhythms and Eating Windows Our bodies are wired to follow a circadian rhythm—a 24-hour cycle that controls hormones like melatonin, cortisol, and insulin. One key thing to understand is that your body follows the rhythm of the day. When it's light out, you're naturally wired for activity—your metabolism is active, digestion works efficiently, and your body is more sensitive to insulin. As daylight fades, melatonin levels rise, signaling it's time to slow down, rest, and prepare for sleep. Here's the kicker: melatonin doesn't just make you sleepy—it also reduces insulin sensitivity. That means when you eat late at night—say at 8 or 9pm—your body doesn't handle sugar or calories as well. Instead of using that energy, you're more likely to store it as fat. So, a meal at 5pm when it's still light out? Your body's insulin response is stronger. You burn and use more of what you eat. But a meal at 9pm in the dark? Your body's gearing up for sleep, not digestion. Calories from that meal are more likely to go into fat storage. Breakfast vs. Dinner Skipping—What the Data Says Let's talk about what the research shows when it comes to skipping breakfast versus skipping dinner. Several studies have looked at early time-restricted feeding, where you eat earlier in the day, like between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m., versus eating later, where you skip breakfast and stretch meals into the evening. One of the most cited studies, published in Cell Metabolism. The study looked at men with prediabetes who followed an early time-restricted feeding schedule for five weeks. Even though they didn't lose weight, they had significant improvements in insulin sensitivity, blood pressure, and markers of oxidative stress compared to those eating over a twelve-hour window. The takeaway? Eating earlier in the day improved metabolic function even without reducing calories. Another study found that early eaters experienced lower evening hunger and better fat oxidation, meaning their bodies were burning fat more efficiently. By contrast, those eating later in the day had higher insulin and glucose levels after meals, signaling greater insulin resistance. And more broadly, research consistently shows that eating late at night, especially after seven or eight in the evening, is linked to increased body fat and higher risks of obesity and type 2 diabetes. The reason is straightforward: insulin sensitivity drops as the day goes on, so your body is less efficient at processing glucose at night, and those late calories are more likely to be stored as fat, especially around the belly. So while skipping breakfast might be easier for some people, from a metabolic standpoint, skipping dinner—or at least finishing it earlier—tends to be more beneficial. This connects directly to why fasting works for weight loss. Fasting gives your insulin a chance to drop, which signals your body to tap into stored fat for energy. Front-loading your meals earlier in the day aligns with your body's natural rhythm: insulin sensitivity is higher, digestion is more efficient, and your body has more opportunity to burn fat overnight. People who eat earlier often report feeling more energized, less hungry in the evening, and sleeping better—all key factors in long-term weight control. Now, if you're taking medications like semaglutide, tirzepatide, or retatrutide, timing becomes even more important. These drugs slow gastric emptying, which helps you feel full longer but also means that eating a large dinner late at night can lead to bloating, nausea, heartburn, and in turn, poor sleep. Digestion naturally slows down as melatonin rises and your body prepares for sleep, so combining a late meal with slower gastric emptying can make it harder for your body to rest and burn fat overnight. A good rule is to finish your last meal two to three hours before bed, ideally around five or six in the evening. This gives your body time to digest, allows insulin levels to drop, and lets you switch into fat-burning mode. What's the counter argument? Of course, it's important to remember that meal timing isn't one-size-fits-all. While the research often favors early eating, some people naturally aren't hungry in the morning, and skipping breakfast can actually be a helpful way to stick to a fasting window. Then there are the “night owls.” Some people's circadian rhythms naturally shift later, and for them, eating later may actually align better with their biology. Forcing an early eating schedule might leave them tired, hungry, or unable to stick with it, which can actually be counterproductive for metabolic health. Research on chronotypes—the natural variations in our sleep-wake cycles—suggests that what works for a morning person might not work for someone who thrives later in the day. Practical lifestyle factors also play a role. Work schedules, family dinners, or social events can make it hard to consistently finish dinner at five or six in the evening. For some, a slightly later meal, if it's balanced and nutrient-dense, can be more sustainable over the long term than forcing an early window and ending up snacking late anyway. Finally, metabolic flexibility matters. Some people can handle a later meal without negative effects on fat storage, insulin sensitivity, or sleep, especially if the meal is lighter or focused on protein and vegetables. The bottom line is that while early eating has clear metabolic advantages for many, especially those taking weight loss medications like tirzepatide, the most important factors are consistency, total calories, and the quality of your food, not just the exact timing. So, whether you're a morning eater, a night owl, or somewhere in between, finding an approach that fits your body and lifestyle—and that you can stick to long term—is often more important than following a strict rule about skipping breakfast or dinner.

STRONGER BONES LIFESTYLE: REVERSING THE COURSE OF OSTEOPOROSIS NATURALLY
When it comes to bone health, we often talk about calcium, vitamin D, or strength training — but few people realize that strong bones actually begin in the gut. In this solo episode, Debi Robinson explores one of the most overlooked root causes of bone loss and osteoporosis: poor digestion.Through years of working with women with osteoporosis and osteopenia — and interpreting countless stool labs—Debi has seen a clear pattern: when digestion falters, bones weaken. Because the truth is, it's not just what you eat—it's what you absorb.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy digestion is the foundation of bone healthThe step-by-step “mouth to bones” process of nutrient absorptionSigns your digestive system may not be working properlyHow poor digestion and inflammation trigger bone lossThe role of the gut-bone axis in osteoporosis and osteopeniaSimple, practical steps to support healthy digestion and stronger bonesAction StepsSlow down when eating. Take deep breaths and eat in a calm, mindful state to support proper digestion.Chew your food thoroughly. Digestion begins in the mouth—help your enzymes do their job.Stay hydrated, but skip large drinks during meals. Avoid diluting stomach acid.Add more fiber. Aim for 30 grams daily to support your microbiome and regular bowel movements.Consider functional testing. A stool lab can uncover the root cause of poor digestion or nutrient malabsorption.Resources and LinksLearn more: Healthy Gut, Healthy Bones ProgramWork with Debi one-on-one → Book a ConsultationMore episodes of the Stronger Bones Lifestyle Podcast → Listen Here

This episode was recorded in Reno, Nevada, during the 2025 Western Dairy Management Conference.Dr. Hutjens' presentation focused on herds producing seven pounds of milk fat and milk protein per cow per day, and the genetics, on-farm management and nutrition to make that happen. The panel discusses where components could top out, how added dietary fat has influenced components and the importance of high quality forage to de novo fat synthesis. (4:09)The panel explores how well nutritionists are keeping up with rapid genetic change in milk component production and how farmers respond to recommendations for things like rumen-protected fatty acids and supplemental fat. Dr. Nelson shares some of the unique challenges and opportunities faced by the California dairy producers he works with. (11:56)Dr. Hutjens gives some benchmark values for energy and protein efficiency. The panel debates the merit of energy-corrected milk per stall as an efficiency measure, with the consensus being it might lead to crowding, which would then probably decrease milk and component production due to decreasing cow comfort. The group also discusses selecting for feed efficiency and the heritability of feed efficiency. (16:33)The panel dives into the topic of feed ingredients. High-oleic soybeans and high quality forages are a focus in some parts of the country. Dr. Nelson discusses non-forage fiber sources available in the California market, such as citrus, plums, apples and carrots. The group talks more about how high-sugar byproducts influence rumen fermentation, which is different from starch, as well as benefits in palatability, digestibility and intake. (21:03)Dr. Hutjens talks about benchmarks for milk components and different strategies for increasing component production. Rumen-protected amino acids, purchased fats, roasted high-oleic soybeans and urea are discussed. The group also talks about what might happen if milk processors start asking for less milk fat, for example. Dr. Hutjens talks about how nutritionists can help balance rations to yield different results for different markets. (33:04)Panelists share their take-home thoughts.

Can something actually be “proven safe” for everyone or does that go against what we know to be true about bioindividuality? In this empowering episode of the Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast, host Jamie Belz sits down with Nolan Gleich, NTP, Certified Fertility Awareness Educator, and Digital Marketing Strategist at the Nutritional Therapy Association, to unpack the headlines linking Tylenol (acetaminophen) to autism and explore what true health freedom really means. Together, Jamie and Nolan zoom out from fear-based headlines to the bigger picture: how chronic illness, toxic load, and bioindividuality shape health outcomes, and why foundational, root cause wellness is the future of healthcare rather than quick, Bandaid fixes that only mask the symptoms of deeper, underlying issues. Inside this episode, you'll discover: Why “proven safe” isn't a universal truth—and how bioindividuality challenges one-size-fits-all medicine The role of epigenetics, toxicity, nutrient deficiencies, and gut health in chronic illness and autism risk RFK's recent $50 million autism research initiative and what it could mean for families Practical, foundation-first alternatives for pain and fever support in pregnancy and childhood (hydration, digestion optimization, nutrient-dense foods, rest, immune support) How education empowers us to be confident and trustworthy advocates for our health This conversation isn't about blame—it's about hope, empowerment, and solutions. Wherever your thoughts are regarding the Tylenol and autism topic, this episode will leave you inspired to trust your body's innate wisdom, learn more about the foundations of health, and embrace the freedom that comes with bioindividuality.

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared sits down with Dr. Jason Klop, founder of Novel Biome, to explore one of the most fascinating and misunderstood frontiers in health: fecal microbiota transplant (FMT). Often misnamed “fecal matter transplant,” FMT is a highly purified process that restores microbial diversity in the gut—far beyond what probiotics alone can achieve. Jared and Dr. Klop discuss why FMT is gaining traction in digestive health, neurological conditions, and immune balance, and how it differs from traditional probiotic supplementation. You'll learn about the rigorous donor screening process, oral vs. rectal delivery methods, and why gut microbiome diversity is critical for overall vitality. The potential applications of FMT are broad and promising. This conversation pulls back the curtain on how supporting the gut ecosystem could impact everything from digestion and inflammation to mood and longevity.Additional Information:Novel BiomeNovel Biome - InstagramPodcast – Biome Breakthroughs (Spotify): Listen hereVisit the podcast website here: VitalityRadio.comYou can follow @vitalitynutritionbountiful and @vitalityradio on Instagram, or Vitality Radio and Vitality Nutrition on Facebook.

This episode was recorded in Fort Wayne, Indiana, during the 2025 Tri-State Dairy Conference.Dr. Firkins' presentation covers key aspects of how to improve digestibility of different diet components: fiber, starch, fat and total diet. (4:31)The negative relationship between starch in the diet and fiber digestion has been well known for more than 50 years. A recent meta-analysis showed the depression in fiber digestibility starts at very low starch concentrations. Dr. Weiss points out this can't be due to low rumen pH at that starch level. Dr. Firkins agrees pH is probably only about half of the relationship and the other half is factors called the carbohydrate effect. He goes on to say adequate ammonia and amino acids are necessary for the fibrolytic bacteria in the rumen to maximize fiber digestibility, and urea alone is not adequate. The panel agrees there is little knowledge about what exactly the amino acid requirements of fibrolytic bacteria are or should be. (6:05)Dr. Firkins shares some of his findings regarding how sugars impact fiber digestibility. Dr. Krogstad notes grain particle size can have key impacts on fiber digestibility and the panel discusses some of the challenges in nailing down optimal particle size. (13:39)Dr. Weiss indicates diets should be formulated for rumen degradable starch - but how do we get that number? Dr. Firkins explains some of the difficulty in making accurate, cohesive predictions. The panel discusses some field measures that may be helpful. (18:24)Ruminants have lower fat digestibility than monogastrics. The panel explores biological factors that might be limiting fat digestibility. Dr. Firkins believes palmitic and oleic acids probably help the microbes and that is why we see improved diet digestibility when those fatty acids are supplemented. He encourages further exploration into the reason behind this and the mechanism by which it occurs. Dr. Krogstad mentions a Utah State study that also saw improved diet digestibility and also evaluated microbial fractions and phospholipids. (22:44)The panel explores the relationship between rumen-degradable protein and fiber digestibility. What happens when RDP is too high or too low? What is the optimal level of RDP to maximize digestibility? How does the composition of the base diet influence how much RDP you might need? What role do peptides play in the rumen?

Arcana Coelestia 7752. All things in the universe bear relation to Good and Truth. That which does not bear relation to good and truth is not in Divine order; and that which does not bear relation to both together, produces nothing. Good is that which produces, and truth is that by which it produces. AC 7755 The first of the church is good, the second is truth; or the first of the church is charity, and the second is faith. For the truth of the doctrine of faith is for the sake of the good of life. That which is the end for the sake of which something else exists, this is the first. The memory corresponds to the stomach Apocalypse Explained 242. [4] This may be illustrated by a comparison with the stomachs of birds and beasts of the earth that are called ruminating stomachs. Into these they first collect their food, and afterwards by degrees take it out and eat it, and thus nourish the blood; food thus becomes a part of their life. With man the memory corresponds to these stomachs; and man is endowed with memory instead of these because he is spiritual; into this he first gathers spiritual foods, which are knowledges, and afterwards he takes them out by a sort of ruminating, that is, by thinking and willing, and appropriates them, and thus makes them a part of his life. From this comparison, although trifling, it can be seen that knowledges, unless implanted in the life by thinking and willing them and then doing them, are like food that remains unconsumed in ruminating stomachs, where it either becomes putrid or is vomited out. Moreover, the circle of man's life is to know, to understand, to will, and to do; for man's spiritual life begins with knowing, passes next to understanding, then to willing, and finally to doing. From this it is clear that so long as knowledges are in the memory they are merely in the entrance to the life, and that they are not fully in man until they are in acts, and the more fully they are in acts the more fully they are in the understanding and will. [5] It was further shown that the faith of knowledges before it becomes the faith of life is historical faith, the nature of which is well known, namely, that it is believed because another has said it; until this has been made man's own it is an alien thing, or something with ourself belonging to someone else. Historical faith, moreover, is like a belief in things unknown, for it is said that things must be believed though not understood, yea, that they must not be searched into by the understanding; and yet spiritual faith is such that in it truths themselves are seen and are consequently believed. In heaven no one believes any truth unless he sees it or has seen it; for they say, “Who can believe that a thing is so unless he sees it? It may possibly be false.” And only the evil can believe what is false; for the evil from evil see falsities, but the good from good see truths; and as good is from the Lord, so also seeing truth from good is from the Lord. Angels see truths because the light of heaven, in which they are, is Divine truth proceeding from the Lord; all, therefore, even those in the world, who are in that light are able to see truth. (Of the light of heaven, and that it is such, see in the work on Heaven and Hell 126-140.) For when a man dies and enters the other life, his life is circumstanced like food, ... AC 5175. For when a man dies and enters the other life, his life is circumstanced like food, which is softly taken hold of by the lips and is then passed through the mouth, fauces, and esophagus, into the stomach, and this according to the nature that has been contracted in the life of the body by means of various activities. At first most spirits are treated gently, being kept in the company of angels and good spirits, which is represented by the food being first touched softly by the lips, and then tasted by the tongue to discover its quality. Food that is soft, and in which there is what is sweet, oily,
Master your minerals. Harmonize your hormones. Start your mineral journey here. What if the root of your child's health struggles isn't another cream, pill, or quick fix, but something much deeper?In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Nina Marie Rueda, a naturopath who works with children and families through a functional, integrative lens. Her own journey started during her first pregnancy, when she realized how little she'd supported her body and baby with nutrition. This pregnancy completely changed her perspective, and she went from wanting to become a university professor to birth work, nutrition training, and eventually naturopathy.We get into why minerals matter so much for kids, especially when it comes to challenges like picky eating, eczema, and sleep struggles. Dr. Nina explains how testing works, why hair analysis often gives a clearer picture than blood work for children, and what common mineral patterns she sees in practice.

Are you having a hard time falling asleep, staying asleep, experiencing crazy dreams, or not feeling well rested despite a full night's sleep? Is it your mind, your body, or both that are keeping you awake?These are the questions we're going to dive into on this week's episode, which unpacks sleep from a Chinese Medicine perspective. Chinese Medicine (CM) is an ancient, indigenous system of healing that developed through the study of the body's energy systems. I've personally found this lens of seeing the body to be both enlightening and clarifying—it just makes sense.It's safe to say that all forms of medicine—whether Eastern, Western, holistic, or allopathic—agree that sleep is one of the most important functions of the human body. If you're not sleeping, your body will struggle and eventually fail to function fully. CM is particularly effective for treating sleep disorders because its system of pattern diagnosis and treatment is entirely unique to each individual.On this episode, we dive into the roots, branches, and varied patterns of sleep disorders.Highlights from this episode:I unpack the role of the main organ-energy pathways (meridians) involved in sleep: the Heart, Liver, and Kidneys.The perspective CM has toward the soul/spirit, how it divides it into five aspects, and how they contribute to sleep quality and dreams.The unique system of the CM body clock and how it can help you get better sleep.Common herbal formulas used to treat sleep disorders.Related Episodes: Whispers of Clarity p. 2: Qi Gong #56Whispers of Qi and Blood #67Whispers of Digestion and Food Therapy from a TCM Perspective #72Whispers of Women's Cycles from a TCM Perspective #74p.1 :10 Ways You're Hurting Your Health According to a Student of Chinese Medicine #30p.2 : 10 Ways You're Hurting Your Health According to a Student of Chinese Medicine #35Whispers of Esoteric Acupuncture (and Qi Gong) p. 2 with Dr. AdamsonIf you'd like to connect with Stephanie, you can find her here:Instagram-@schoolofwhispers @__steef___ email-schoolofwhispers@gmail.com If you would like to schedule an acupuncture appointment with Stephanie at her current clinic, Balance Point Acupuncture, you can either visit www.balancepointacu.com or call 561-615-4535 to schedule your appointment todayDISCLAIMER: This podcast is presented for educational and exploratory purposes only.

Show Notes
In this episode of the Next Level Health & Fitness Podcast, I begin by addressing the heartbreaking tragedy here in Utah involving the killing of Charlie Kirk. It's important to pause and acknowledge the weight of events like this before moving into our regular health and fitness discussions. From there, we shift into the main focus of today's show: how to get the most out of a high-protein diet without suffering from the digestive issues that often come with it. A common pushback I hear from clients is that eating more protein makes their stomach hurt or leaves them feeling bloated. The truth is, there are real reasons behind those symptoms—and they can be addressed. In this episode, I break down: Why high-protein diets sometimes cause digestive discomfort The key factors that contribute to bloating, cramping, or sluggish digestion Five tactical, science-backed ways to optimize digestion while still reaping the benefits of a high-protein approach Whether you're an athlete, busy parent, or just someone looking to eat better and feel better, these strategies will help you get the most out of your nutrition without the unpleasant side effects.

Unlock better protein absorption and digestion with MassZymes by BiOptimizers. NOW GET 15% off your order with the code VANESSA at bioptimizers.com/vanessa The Bloating Episode! If you've ever struggled with bloating after eating, digestive discomfort, or wondered if your body is really absorbing all the protein and nutrients you consume, this episode is for you. I'm joined by Wade Lightheart, co-founder and president of BiOptimizers, to dive into the science of digestive enzymes and how they can transform digestion, nutrient absorption, and protein utilization. A former natural bodybuilding champion, Wade developed MassZymes after struggling with his own digestion on a high-protein diet. We cover: What EXACTLY causes bloating and poor protein digestion Why low stomach acid and declining enzyme levels with age can cause bloating and poor nutrient absorption. Clinical research on protease blends and a 2024 protein study showing improved amino acid absorption with enzyme support. A university laboratory test on MassZymes suggesting over 1,200% more amino acids released compared to digestion alone. How lipase enzymes can reduce bloating and fullness after high-fat meals. Why older adults and high-protein eaters may especially benefit from enzyme supplementation for muscle and metabolic health. If bloating, slow digestion, or protein absorption has ever held you back from feeling your best, this conversation will help you fix your bloat and unlock the full benefits of your nutrition.

Looking 4 Healing Radio with Dr. LeAnn Fritz – The reality is—you are what you digest and assimilate. You can eat the cleanest diet in the world, but if your digestive system isn't working optimally, those nutrients never fully reach your cells. The result? A cascade of symptoms that may appear obvious—such as gas, bloating, or irregular bowel movements—or not-so-obvious, such as acne, low energy, brain fog...
Energetic Health Institute Radio with Holly Whalen – Yes, people lose weight. But at what cost? Eyesight can dim overnight, even in people without prior eye disease. Bones, already living tissue that constantly remodel, can thin to the point of hip fractures or spinal collapse within a year. Digestion can grind to a halt, leaving food rotting in the stomach, and people vomiting meals from the day before...
