What happens when food elimination starts making things worse?You remove the obvious triggers. You follow the labs and the genetics. The plan becomes more precise.Yet… the client becomes more reactive, the range of tolerated foods narrows, and overall resilience declines.This is not a lack of effort. It is a pattern.Food sensitivity reflects the state of the system, not just the food. When stress, blood sugar instability, microbiome disruption, or inflammation are present, even a well-designed approach can backfire.Layer genetics on top without context, and each variant becomes a reason for further restriction.At that point, the question is no longer what to remove. It is whether the system can tolerate anything at all.In this episode, Dr. Ritamarie explains why this occurs and how to shift from progressive elimination to restoring resilience.What's Inside This Episode?When food elimination increases reactivityWhy “safe foods” stop being toleratedAllergy vs intolerance vs sensitivity and why it mattersWhy food reactions reflect system stressHow genetics gets misapplied as restrictionThe hidden cost of over-restrictionThe role of cortisol in worsening sensitivityThe question to ask before removing another foodHow to rebuild resilience and expand the dietResources and Links:Download the full transcript here.Download our FREE Guide to Using Genetic Testing to Optimize Patient OutcomesAccess the Genetic Pathway Mapping Workshop Replay to learn a clinical framework for identifying genetic patterns and applying targeted epigenetic strategies.

What do you do when you've experienced years of symptoms and no real answers?In this episode of Follow Your Gut, Juniper shares her deeply personal story of trying to heal her son after years of reflux, eczema, food allergies, mucus-filled stools, allergies, explosive meltdowns, and being dismissed by professional after professional.This episode is for the woman or mother who knows something is off, even when labs look “normal,” even when she's told her child will “grow out of it,” and when every answer she's given feels partial, temporary, or disconnected.You'll learn why symptoms are not your body betraying you, but communication from a body asking for deeper support. Juniper explains why the body doesn't work in separate rooms, how symptoms that look unrelated are all connect back to the gut, and why clarity is the first step toward real healing.If you've been searching for answers for yourself, your child, or both, this episode will help you begin listening to the body differently.Thanks for listening!

Nutrition Nugget! Bite-sized bonus episodes offer tips, tricks and approachable science. This week, Jenn is talking about Food Allergy Prevention, a groundbreaking new study from the Salk Institute that could change everything we thought we knew about food allergies. What if having no allergic reaction is not just luck but an active, complex process happening inside your body? New findings point to specific immune cells in the gut that may hold the key to why some people can eat anything without a reaction while others cannot. Could something as simple as what you feed a child early in life shift the odds in their favor? Jenn breaks down the science, the caveats, and what this might actually mean for families navigating the very real challenges of food allergies. Is a future without food allergies possible? You might be surprised by what the research is starting to reveal. Like what you're hearing? Be sure to check out the full-length episodes of new releases every Wednesday.

Your body is always communicating. The question is: are you listening? In this episode of Taste Life Nutrition Radio & Podcast, Nikki Burnett explores the hidden signals your body sends every day and what symptoms like fatigue, cravings, brain fog, bloating, inflammation, anxiety, and weight gain may actually be trying to tell you. Many people are told their labs are "normal" and that their symptoms are simply part of aging, stress, or a busy lifestyle. Nikki challenges that narrative and explains how learning the language of your body can help you uncover root causes, optimize health, and reclaim true health freedom. From blood sugar instability and chronic inflammation to gut health, nervous system regulation, hormones, and nutrient deficiencies, this episode connects the dots between common symptoms and the deeper physiological patterns driving them. Nikki also shares personal experiences, client stories, and practical insights into why symptoms should be viewed as messages rather than inconveniences to suppress. ⏱️ KEY MOMENTS

Scared to eat before you go out in case you sh*t your pants?If you've suddenly started reacting to healthy foods like eggs, dairy, garlic, broccoli, or onions with bloating, gas, brain fog, diarrhea, or constipation — you are not crazy, and it's not just aging.In this episode, we're unpacking why so many women in perimenopause and midlife develop food sensitivities seemingly overnight, and why simply cutting out more and more foods is not the answer.We dive into the powerful connection between hormonal changes, stress, sleep, gut motility, and microbiome imbalance — and how they can create the perfect environment for issues like SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth) and large intestine dysbiosis to develop.You'll learn:• How estrogen and progesterone changes impact digestion and the gut microbiome• Why chronic constipation can trigger food reactions and bloating• The different types of SIBO (hydrogen, methane, and hydrogen sulfide) and how each one feels different• Why you may feel like you're reacting to “everything” you eat• The truth about low FODMAP diets — and why they're not meant to be forever• The difference between SIBO and large intestine dysbiosis• Why aggressive gut “kill protocols” often backfire• A gentler, more sustainable approach to healing your gut without surviving on rice and chicken.If you're tired of fearing food, constantly bloated, or feeling dismissed when your symptoms don't make sense, this episode will help you understand what may really be happening in your gut — and what steps you can take to start healing.Book your IBS discovery call today here.Follow me mindful_vitality#perimenopause #menopause #bloating #sibo #foodsensitivities #heartburn #brainfog #womenshealth #hormonehealth #hrt #ibs #gerd #fatigue #nutrientdeficiencies #hairloss #glutenfree #lowfodmap

The donor egg recommendation rarely comes after a complete workup. It comes after AMH, FSH, and an antral follicle count. That is usually where the investigation stops. In this episode, Sarah Clark walks through what is missing from the workup before women are told donor eggs are their only path: the full thyroid panel, not just TSH. Stool DNA testing for H. pylori, parasites, and food sensitivities. The vaginal microbiome. The male partner's blood work, which most clinics do not run. The nervous system patterns most REIs do not connect to fertility. Sarah shares Rebecca's case as a proof point. Rebecca was 27. Her AMH was 0.04 ng/mL. POI diagnosis. Told donor eggs were her only option. Her stool DNA testing revealed H. pylori and a parasite. Her food sensitivity testing showed gluten, dairy, and egg intolerance. She had adrenal insufficiency, thyroid imbalance, mineral depletion, and toxic load on her workup. Her eczema, migraines, and asthma were not separate issues. After targeted work, she conceived naturally in month five. Outcomes vary. Rebecca's case is one of many we use to illustrate what completing the workup can look like. This episode is for the woman sitting with a donor egg recommendation who is not ready to agree before she understands what was actually evaluated. The goal is clarity. Not opposition to your clinic. Not a guarantee of any outcome. Clarity on what your workup did not include, so that whatever you decide next gets made on the full picture. What this episode covers: The diagnosis is real. The investigation is incomplete. Why TSH alone is not a thyroid panel. H. pylori, hidden food sensitivities, and the gut inflammation driver. Eczema, migraines, and asthma as fertility signals. The male partner's workup should include beyond a semen analysis. Nervous system patterns most REIs do not connect to fertility. Next steps: Access the free guide: What Your Clinic Missed.

Functional Diagnostic Nutrition: Using Saliva Testing, Food Sensitivity Labs, and Lifestyle to Find Root Causes: Reed Davis, Board Certified Holistic Health Practitioner (HHP) and Certified Nutritional Therapist (CNT), is founder of Functional Diagnostic Nutrition (FDN). He discusses using functional testing alongside conventional care to uncover “dysfunction” when standard labs appear normal. Davis describes assessing adrenal and metabolic stress via saliva testing for circadian cortisol patterns, cortisol-DHEA balance, sex hormones, secretory IgA, and melatonin, emphasizing clinical correlation and individualized “studies of one.” He outlines an approach targeting multiple “healing opportunities” (H-I-D-D-E-N: hormones, immune, digestion, detoxification, energy, nervous system) and applying D-R-E-S-S (diet, rest, exercise, stress reduction, supplementation) rather than relying on supplements alone. A case example links chronic hives, medication-related weight gain, and food triggers identified through additional testing, including the Mediator Release Test. The discussion also covers stress-driven gut dysbiosis, digestion decline, and EFT tapping for stress-related symptoms, and notes FDN practitioners can be found via FDNtraining.com/medicine.

FPIES Symptoms in Babies: Why Vomiting Hours After Eating Isn't Just Gastro or RefluxThis week on the Natural Super Kids Podcast, we're talking about FPIES (Food Protein-Induced Enterocolitis Syndrome) — a lesser-known type of food allergy that doesn't look like a typical allergic reaction.Instead of immediate symptoms like hives or swelling, FPIES often shows up as delayed, intense vomiting hours after eating, which is why it's so commonly mistaken for gastro, reflux, or a random illness. For many parents, this leads to a long and confusing journey before getting real answers.In this episode, we explore:Why your child may be vomiting hours after eating (and why it's often missed)The key signs it could be FPIES, not gastro or refluxWhy allergy tests come back normal, even when reactions are severeThe most common trigger foods and how to start identifying patterns

What role do food sensitivities really play in women's health, especially during menopause? In this episode, I sit down with nutritionist Charlotte Hunter to break down the connection between food sensitivities, gut health, and hormonal shifts. We explore how changes in estrogen levels can impact gut permeability, and why this often leads to increased inflammation and symptom flare-ups during the menopausal transition. We dive into the importance of proper food sensitivity testing and how identifying hidden triggers can make a significant difference in managing symptoms. We also tackle a key question: are food sensitivities actually increasing, or are we just getting better at detecting them? From dietary approaches like keto to foundational lifestyle factors such as stress, sleep, and movement, this conversation brings everything back to the bigger picture. Because it's not just about removing foods—it's about addressing the underlying drivers. If you're looking to better understand how nutrition, hormones, and gut health intersect, this episode will give you practical insights you can apply right away. Key takeaways: Food sensitivities can often be mistaken as symptoms rather than root causes and should be addressed alongside lifestyle factors such as stress, sleep, and exercise. The decline in estrogen during menopause can impair gut integrity, leading to increased food sensitivities and disorders such as leaky gut. Accurate testing for food sensitivities, including both IgG and C3D complement tests, is essential to identify true food reactions causing inflammation. Dietary choices, particularly high-fat diets like keto, can exacerbate gut barrier issues, leading to higher LPS expression and consequently more profound gut permeability. Managing menopause symptoms requires a multifaceted approach, including balanced nutrition, avoidance of unnecessary food restrictions, and lifestyle modifications.   More About Charlotte Hunter: Charlotte Hunter is a nutritionist and has been in clinical practice since 2010. Her work focuses on adverse food reactions, immune-gut interactions, and the practical use of functional laboratory testing to improve clinical outcomes. She is currently completing her MSc in Nutritional Medicine and has a particular interest in how immune tolerance and intestinal permeability influence food sensitivity responses. She also leads a team of nutritionists in her busy menopause practice. Charlotte manages KBMO Diagnostics UK and NutriDyn Europe and has worked extensively with a range of laboratory providers. This gives her a unique, balanced perspective on the strengths, limitations, and clinical application of food sensitivity testing across the industry. She is passionate about helping practitioners move beyond test results alone, combining clinical reasoning, current research, and practical tools to create safe, personalised nutrition strategies.

Women don't randomly develop bloating, food sensitivities, rosacea, eczema, hormone issues, and chronic inflammation overnight. But most are never told how connected these symptoms actually are. In this episode, Michele Scarlet sits down with Elizabeth Aylor to unpack her personal health transformation after years of severe gut dysfunction, histamine intolerance, hormone imbalance, skin flare-ups, food reactions, and losing her cycle for over seven years. After trying nearly every diet imaginable; including keto, carnivore, vegan, raw vegan, and strict gut-healing protocols. Nothing truly worked until she stopped chasing symptoms and started addressing the deeper stressors driving them. This episode dives into: histamine intolerance bloating and food sensitivities eczema and rosacea gut dysfunction and detox pathways hormone imbalance and missing periods mold toxicity and chronic inflammation why extreme diets often backfire If you feel like your body is reacting to everything, this episode will help you understand why.

Clinical neuroscientist and nutrition researcher Dr Miguel Toribio-Mateas returns to The Hidden 20% to challenge one of the most persistent myths in ADHD: that it's just about the brain.In this conversation, Ben and Dr Miguel explore ADHD through a whole-body lens - from nervous system regulation and eating patterns to capacity, sensory sensitivity and the gut–brain axis.They unpack why food isn't just fuel but a regulatory tool, why so many ADHDers struggle with inconsistent eating, and why “just eat better” advice often misses the point entirely. The conversation then goes deeper into why the same food can feel fine one day and intolerable the next, and how what we often label as “food sensitivities” may actually be linked to stress, overload and nervous system state.Join us at hidden20.org/donate.________Host: Ben BransonProduction Manager: Phoebe De LeiburnéVideo Editor: James ScrivenSocial Media Manager: Charlie YoungMusic: Jackson GreenbergHead of Marketing: Kristen Fuller00:00 Introduction: ADHD Beyond The Brain01:42 Why ADHD Is a Nervous System Condition05:18 Fight, Flight, Freeze: ADHD & Regulation09:12 Why Food Impacts ADHD More Than You Think13:40 ADHD Eating Patterns: Skipping, Binging & Dopamine18:25 Why “Just Eat Better” Doesn't Work for ADHD22:10 Regulation Before Optimisation: Rethinking Food26:30 Simple Food Changes That Support ADHD Brains31:05 Food, Mood & Energy Crashes Explained35:22 Why The Same Food Feels Different Day to Day38:40 Understanding Capacity in ADHD42:15 Sensory Sensitivity, Stress & The Body45:50 The Gut–Brain Axis Explained Simply49:10 “Food Sensitivities” vs Nervous System Overload53:05 Stress, Digestion & ADHD Explained56:10 What Actually Helps: Supporting Regulation First59:30 Dr Miguel's Green Dot BadgeThe Hidden 20% is a charity founded by AuDHD entrepreneur, Ben Branson.Our mission is simple: To change how the world sees neurodivergence.No more stigma.

Bloating after meals, constipation, or sudden urgency to run to the bathroom are often brushed off as normal, but they can be signs of irritable bowel syndrome. In this episode, we unpack why IBS is often treated as a label to justify medications rather than a sign pointing you to issues brewing under the surface.Joining me today is Dr. Izabella Wentz, an integrative pharmacist, thyroid expert, and bestselling author known for helping people uncover the root causes of chronic health issues.So if you have tried elimination diets, probiotics, or leaky gut supplements without lasting relief, this conversation is for you!⭐️Mentioned in This Episode:- My FAV gut support

What if the bloating, mood swings, and unpredictable cycles you have been blaming on your hormones are actually your gut sending out a distress signal? The truth is that your digestive health and your hormonal balance are far more intertwined than most people realize, and addressing one without the other may be exactly why nothing has worked so far.On Salad with a Side of Fries, host Jenn Trepeck welcomes Bridget Walton, functional hormone specialist and founder of I'm Hormonal, for a candid, science-backed conversation about the connection between hormones and gut health. From estrogen metabolism and microbiome balance to stress, elimination, and the power of functional nutrition, this episode delivers the clarity and actionable guidance women navigating these challenges have been seeking.What You Will Learn in This Episode:✅ How sluggish elimination leads to a buildup of estrogen metabolites in the body, which can directly fuel PMS symptoms, heavy periods, cramping, and mood swings.✅ Why an imbalanced gut microbiome triggers an inflammatory response that disrupts cortisol and your sex hormones, creating a cycle that is difficult to break without addressing the root cause.✅ The foundational daily habits, including eating a rainbow of fiber-rich plants, incorporating fermented foods, minimizing processed food inflammation, and proper hydration, support both digestive health and hormonal harmony.✅ How to recognize when general wellness strategies are no longer enough, and functional health testing may be the key to finally getting a personalized plan that moves the needle.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.

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Dr. Sina McCullough, author of “Hands Off My Food! How to Defend Your Food, Health, and Freedom.”

Dr. Sina McCullough, author of “Hands Off My Food! How to Defend Your Food, Health, and Freedom,” argues that bureaucrats, multinational biotech corporations, and regulatory loopholes have helped adulterate the U.S. food supply. McCullough describes nearly dying from rheumatoid arthritis after years of worsening symptoms despite a “clean” organic, paleo-style diet, then recovering through functional testing that revealed 15 nutrient deficiencies, food sensitivities, and arsenic poisoning; she says she healed without pharmaceuticals. She explains that nutrition training often ignores food adulterants and claims the FDA facilitates markets rather than ensures safety, highlighting the GRAS loophole, voluntary notification, lack of long-term and cumulative testing, and industry influence via the revolving door. Examples include trans fats, glyphosate formulation issues, gene-edited crops, and recombinant bovine growth hormone approvals and labeling. She discusses organic loopholes and emphasizes solutions: read labels, “feed the good and starve the bad,” vote with purchasing, seek third-party certifications, and know your farmer; she also promotes her Beyond Labels podcast with farmer Joel Salatin.

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…   Anonymous: Hi Dr. Cabral - I don't believe you've talked about this before, but what are your thoughts about toxins in the regular/store brands of toilet paper? Should we be concerned about that and if so, are there any brands that you personally recommend or buy for your family? Thank you!      Emily: Hello Dr Cabral, I love your podcast and listen to you weekly! I wanted to ask your thoughts on milling your own flour, to make your own bread. You do not have to convince me to not touch the commercial bread in the US, and right now I am just gluten free and do not eat wheat now. But some health sources I follow recommend milling your own wheat to be a healthier swap. What do you think? If so, do you have a wheat company and mill company to recommend? I think my hesitation is to spend all the money and find that it still bothers my gut      Angela: Hi Dr. Cabral I just completed level 2 & will be starting level 3 soon! I am 48 years old and in the beginning of perimenopause. I have healed from Addisons disease, and I was borerline having scurvy in 2018, (which I believe I did have because I cracked 3 teeth in 2017 and needed root canals). All my numbers look good now. I had 3 incidents last year where my BP was 80/48, while dealing with stress . Is there a way a can support my adrenal glands and hormones in the perimenopause phase to keep my cortisol levels optimal so nothing triggers Addisons again? I also have MTHFR and take all the foundational supplements, plus 50mg of a progesterone troche. I am not taking anything to support my adrenals right now. Also what form of vitamin C would be best for me to incorporate? Thank you      Veronia: Hi! Not every time but most times when I drink alcohol, it feels like something is coming up in my chest, causing a "growl" noise. I have moments where my mouth will water profusely. I have to run to the bathroom almost like I have to throw up but it's just saliva I'm spitting out. I gag but never throw up. This can happen just after one drink. The next day my chest and esophagus are so sore even water is uncomfortable going down. I have maybe 4 drinks a month. I still want to be able to have a drink. Is there something I can take or do prior to having a drink to help these symptoms? To add I did the Candida, Metabolic and Vitamin test. I have an overgrowth of Arabinose, value of 45. I'm in my 2nd month of the CBO protocol. I had 1 drink as my cheat meal and had symptoms:( Thank you!      Sheena: Hi Dr. C! Hope you and your team are well. Just a few clarifying questions regarding test taking. Prior to taking the Food Sensitivity test, should I eat dairy, gluten, nuts etc? I work part-time, should I take the Stress Mood test on a day that I'm working for accurate cortisol results? And lastly, will you ever offer the stool test in Canada? I tried to purchase it but wasn't able to. Looking forward to your response!

Send a textIf you've ever felt like every system in your body has a problem — your digestion is off, your skin is reactive, your mood is unpredictable, you're exhausted but wired, and nothing you try seems to hold — this episode is for you.Most people are chasing ten different symptoms. What they actually have is one problem. A boundary problem. And that boundary is the gut barrier.This episode is the next installment in my Terrain Map series — a Rosetta Stone style body of work I've been building to help you understand what's actually happening ecologically inside your body. Each episode builds on the last. This one goes deeper into the living ecosystem that determines what your immune system reacts to, what your nervous system has to manage, and why when that boundary breaks down, the body stops feeling like a safe place to live in.I cover:What the gut barrier actually is — not just a lining, but a living ecosystem of mucus layers, epithelial cells, tight junction proteins, and microbial communities that together determine what stays out and what gets inWhat breaks it down — and why the answer is almost always a combination of things that match the life that's been livedWhat a compromised barrier actually feels like beyond digestive symptoms — including the signs most people never connect to their gutThe mineral catch-22 — why you need specific minerals to rebuild the barrier but a compromised barrier means you can't absorb them properly, and why this loop keeps people supplementing forever without resultsWhat restoration actually requires — sequenced, terrain-first, in the right order at the right paceI also reference two previous episodes that go deeper into the generational piece — how what your mother carried in her microbiome shaped your starting point before you had any say in it:How Maternal Microbiomes Shape Immune Health: lydiajoy.mykajabi.com/blog/how-maternal-microbiomes-charge-immune-healthHealing Burnout: How Mothers and Environment Shape Our Health: lydiajoy.mykajabi.com/blog/Healing-Burnout-How-Mothers-and-Environment-Shape-Our-HealthIf you've been in this space for a while doing the right things and still not getting to the bottom of it — this is the conversation you've been missing.Support the show Support the podcast Mineral Foundations Course HERE Minerals & Microbes package HERE Rewilded Wellness program HERE Join my newsletter HERE If you are interested in becoming a client and have questions, reach out by emailing me: lydiajoyme@gmail.com Find me on Instagram : @ Lydiajoy.me

Histamine Reactions in Children: Why Some Kids Seem to React to EverythingThis week on the Natural Super Kids Podcast, we're talking about histamine and why some kids seem to be “reacting to everything,” even when you've already cleaned up their diet, removed the usual suspects, and tried all the common strategies.If your child's symptoms feel unpredictable (or like they're piling up across skin, digestion, and respiratory health), this episode will help you step back and understand what an overprotective immune system can look like and why the goal isn't endless avoidance, but supporting the body so it can respond more calmly over time.In this episode, we explore:What histamine is and why some children seem extra sensitive to it, even when allergy tests don't give clear answersHow histamine-related symptoms can show up alongside eczema, allergies, and ongoing gut symptoms and why the overlap is commonWhy restriction can sometimes become a slippery slope, and what to consider before cutting more foods “just in case”The bigger picture factors that influence histamine load and tolerance, including gut health, immune regulation, and the body's “threshold” for reacting

In this episode, Jess and Sarah welcome board certified allergist Dr. Farah Khan to explore the complex world of food allergies and sensitivities. The scientists clarify the important distinctions between food allergies, intolerances, and sensitivities while addressing common misconceptions about food sensitivity testing. Dr. Khan discusses the latest evidence-based treatments for food allergies and examines factors that influence whether children outgrow these conditions. The conversation addresses contentious topics including the gluten debate and the connection between eczema and food allergies. Throughout the episode, the experts emphasize the critical importance of relying on evidence-based information in public health and discuss the role of social media in both spreading and combating health misinformation.

In this Ask Dr. Tony episode, Dr. Tony Ebel tackles one of the most common questions from parents: Can kids really heal from food allergies, intolerances, and sensitivities? Dr. Tony explains that food reactions aren't just about the gut or immune system—they're fundamentally a nervous system regulation issue. He breaks down the critical connection between the vagus nerve, digestive function, and immune tolerance, explaining how subluxation creates a cycle of immune overreaction and gut dysfunction. Dr. Tony outlines a healing approach that prioritizes nervous system stability through chiropractic care, followed by functional medicine interventions. He emphasizes that healing is absolutely possible but requires time, the right sequence of care, and combining both approaches for exponential results—what he calls "one plus one equals 11.-----Links & ResourcesReferenced Episodes:How Dairy & Grains Can Actually Be a Health Food w/ Jordan Rubin [Apple/Spotify]Complete Gut Healing: Why Diet Changes & Detox Don't Always Work [Apple/Spotify]Referenced Providers/Organizations:https://mywellrooted.com/https://documentinghope.com/----Key Topics & Timestamps05:00 Understanding allergies vs. sensitivities and intolerances08:00 The vagus nerve: The boss of digestion and immune tolerance13:00 Sympathetic dominance: Why the immune system is always on high alert17:00 These kids aren't broken—they're stuck in a pattern18:00 Step one: Adjust the subluxation and restore nervous system regulation24:00 Functional medicine components: Gut lining, microbiome, inflammation, detox27:00 One plus one equals 111: Combining chiropractic and functional medicine29:00 Neurological soft signs of healing to watch for31:00 Final encouragement: Healing is a process and miracles are possible-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocs Facebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs Network Youtube: The PX Docs For more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.

Have you been diagnosed with candida overgrowth — but you're frustrated that your treatments haven't work? Have you not been diagnosed, but all your symptoms — bloating, brain fog, sugar cravings, skin flares, even recurring yeast infections or UTIs — keep pointing you back to candida?Or have you treated candida before… felt better during the protocol… and then watched everything slowly creep back in and thought, “Why is this happening again?” If you said "yes" to any of these questions - this episode is for you. Today we're continuing the Real Root Cause Series, where I'm taking conditions that are commonly labeled as root causes — and breaking down to you what their REAL root causes are. This is super powerful because understanding a fake vs. real root cause is the difference between healing from your symptoms permanently... or not. Today's topic is: candida. My hope is that this episode blows your mind and helps you to completely rewire how you think about candida. If you get today's episode, you will understand everything you need to to In this episode, I'm breaking down:Why treating candida directly - with diet changes, cleanses, or supplements - so often doesn't work (and ends up with you doing it again and again)The real root causes that drive candida to overgrow in the first placeWhy different people have totally different sets of candida causes underneath the surfaceWhat testing can actually help you map the problem correctlyAnd what you need to do so candida doesn't just disappear for a month… and then take over again And one more thing — I'm doing something new for this entire Real Root Cause Series: visuals. If you're a visual learner, or you want the big picture laid out clearly, go to betterbellytherapies.com/root to download the graphics that go with this episode. Because when you stop fighting candida like it's your primary enemy... and start addressing what's actually feeding it — that's when it stops coming back.

Babies cry. That's how they communicate with us. But some babies cry a lot more than others. For breastfed babies, one possible answer could be food sensitivities given through the breast milk. So, how do you know if your baby has food sensitivities? And how can you figure out which foods are causing the problem? Today our moms share their experience with elimination diets designed to help baby (and mom) feel better. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Have you been told that slow motility is the reason you're constipated, bloated, or dealing with digestive issues that just won't resolve?Have you tried to “treat” slow motility — with supplements, laxatives, diets, or protocols — only to find that nothing actually sticks?Or maybe you haven't been formally diagnosed, but all signs seem to point to slow digestion, sluggish bowels, or food just not moving the way it should.If any of that sounds familiar, this episode is for you.Today we're continuing the Real Root Cause Series, where I'm taking conditions that are commonly labeled as root causes — and breaking down to you what their REAL root causes are. This is super powerful because understanding a fake vs. real root cause is the difference between finding healing from your symptoms... or not.Today's topic is: slow motility.Slow motility is a common diagnosis I hear clients get from a doctor who explains that "slow motility" is why they have constipation, acid reflux, bloating, or some other digestive issue. The solution to slow motility, according to the doctor, is usually either "get used to it", surgery (when motility is bad enough), or a merry-go-round of supplements or medications designed to help "slow motility" (but that don't really help relieve your symptoms).The reason these methods don't really help slow motility is because slow motility is NOT a root cause. It's being CAUSED by something else!That's why, on today's episode, I'm breaking down:Why treating slow gut motility with supplements or medications rarely worksThe real causes of slow gut motilityHow to test for these root causes of low motilityAnd what actually needs to be addressed for motility to return naturallyIf you're ready to stop chasing new and different supplements or simply feeling like a victim to the rate your body decided to digest at - then this episode is for you.TIMESTAMPS:00:00 - Introduction to Slow Motility 00:34 - Understanding Real Root Causes 01:00 - Common Misdiagnoses and Misconceptions 02:01 - Welcome to the Better Belly Podcast 03:10 - Deep Dive into Slow Motility 07:46 - Symptoms and Related Conditions 09:04 - Root Causes of Slow Motility 13:43 - Digestive Enzymes and Their Importance 17:34 - Visceral Adhesions Explained 20:32 - Understanding Myofascial and Visceral Adhesions 21:44 - Finding a Qualified Practitioner for Visceral Manipulation 22:32 - Self-Evaluation Techniques for Visceral Adhesions 23:21 - The Role of the Vagus Nerve in Motility 25:35 - Mold and Its Impact on Gut Health 27:56 - Other Pathogens Affecting Gut Motility 29:34 - Nutrient Deficiencies and Constipation 31:04 - Food Sensitivities and Inflammation 32:41 - Thyroid Issues and Slow Motility 34:49 - Comprehensive Testing and Protocols 38:13 - Conclusion and Next StepsEPISODES MENTIONED:235// SIBO Symptoms, SIBO Testing, and Why SIBO Treatments Fail

They may not develop overnight and often come with complex precursors. Examining the role of Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM) as an adjunctive treatment reveals insightful perspectives for managing these sensitivities effectively. This article highlights key discussions from experts on this topic. **The Genesis of Food Sensitivities** It's essential to recognize that food sensitivities originate from several factors, including genetics and environmental influences. Dr. Carol explains that the immune system, primarily located around the digestive tract, reacts to foreign proteins after they pass through a possibly compromised gut wall, leading to what's referred to as "leaky gut." Stress, medication, and diet intricacies all play crucial roles in how these sensitivities manifest. *Food Sensitivity Testing: A Billion-Dollar Industry** Kim Pittis emphasizes the burgeoning business of food sensitivity panels. Despite their prevalence, the accuracy of these tests has raised skepticism. Instances where identical blood samples sent under different identities yield varied results underscore the need for caution. This discrepancy further emphasizes the importance of alternative approaches, such as elimination diets and dietary adjustments. **Introducing FSM as an Adjunct Treatment** Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM) emerges as a promising supportive tool for those navigating the complexities of food sensitivities. FSM addresses underlying issues that exacerbate food sensitivities, such as leaky gut and vagus nerve dysfunction. It works in tandem with elimination diets to enhance recovery and comfort for patients experiencing these health challenges. **Unraveling the Body's Complex Reactions** As detailed by Dr. Carol, food sensitivities often result in IgG antibody formation, leading to histamine release and systemic responses like body pain and inflammation. These reactions can persist and significantly affect quality of life. Understanding the body's complex immune response to continuous exposure to specific foods and the subsequent formation of food sensitivities is crucial. **Practical Applications: Case Examples** The narrative includes practical applications and real-life examples illustrating how FSM can effectively complement traditional treatments. By repairing compromised gut linings and modulating immune responses, FSM aids in reducing the duration and intensity of food sensitivity reactions, thus promoting more efficient healing.

This episode is a short, spicy reframe on food allergies / sensitivities / intolerances—especially the ones that don't “make a sense” (yes, we said it like that). We're talking about those weird, random reactions that don't match the whole “food family” (ex: you can't drink milk but you can eat ice cream… what?).   Nicole shares a real-life example from Italy: a friend with postpartum gallbladder symptoms and a long-standing “milk issue.” The punchline? Sometimes the body links a food to a high-emotion moment that happened while you were eating/drinking it—especially in childhood—so the reaction isn't just about the food… it's about the stored stress pattern attached to it. We're not dismissing gut/immune issues (those are real), but we are inviting you to ask a better question: When did this start, and what was happening in my life at that exact time?   #FoodAllergies #FoodSensitivity #GutHealth #MindBodyMedicine #PsychosomaticHealing #TraumaInTheBody #NervousSystemRegulation #FunctionalMedicine #IntegrativeMedicine #RootCauseHealing #EliminationDiet #HistamineIntolerance #AutoimmuneHealing #HolisticHealth #DemartiniMethod #EmotionalHealing #SubconsciousMind #FightOrFlight #HealingJourney #IntegrativeYouRadio   3 Key Takeaways: If the allergy is random and inconsistent, look at the mind—not just the molecule. If you react to one specific food but not the whole category, there may be a stored emotional association driving the response. Your body stores what your mind couldn't process. Even if you don't remember the event, it can still run in the background as anxiety, triggers, fight-or-flight, and “threat” responses—including around food. The goal isn't an elimination diet forever—it's resolving the root. Instead of endlessly testing, restricting, and managing, this is an invitation to trace the onset and neutralize the original charge (sometimes with support like guided work, meditation, or hypnosis).    Quotes:  “If you have a couple of miscellaneous food allergies that do not make sense… this is your opportunity to really think about when did it start.” “When it doesn't make sense.

You spoke, and we listened. After our last episode with registered dietitian Kim Shapira, my DMs were filled with thoughtful questions, concerns, and requests for clarification. Some of you were curious, some were skeptical, and honestly? I love that. Because that's exactly why I asked Kim to come back.In this follow-up conversation, Kim answers your most pressing questions with science-backed honesty. We're diving deep into the topics that sparked the most conversation: seed oils, parasite cleanses, food sensitivities versus allergies, and what to do when you're genuinely struggling with food addiction or binge eating.What I appreciate most about Kim is that she doesn't tell you what to think but she explains the why behind it. She's a friend, but more importantly, she's someone who stands behind what she says with research, experience, and a genuine desire to help people heal their relationship with food and their bodies.Connect with Kim Shapira:Website: https://www.kimshapiramethod.com/Book: This Is What You're Really Hungry ForInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/kimshapiramethod/Resources mentioned:EverlyWell food sensitivity testingConnect with Sabrina:https://www.instagram.com/Sabrina_Soto/www.SabrinaSoto.com
