I am delighted to have Dr. Austin Lake with me for a two-part series. In Part 1 today, we dive into women's health, exploring the importance of informed consent around birth control and of finding the root cause of why it was prescribed for you. How to avoid the methylation problems with long-term birth-control use: • Avoid folic acid, and take active folate to counter folate loss  • Maintain adequate B6 to prevent methylation from stalling • If you have MTHFR, take active folate instead of synthetic folic acid to support proper methylation Bio: Dr. Austin Lake Dr. Austin Lake is a functional medicine provider, health educator, and founder of Wholly Health, a transformative health program that helps individuals restore energy, balance hormones, and reclaim health using holistic, evidence-based strategies.  He holds a doctorate in physiotherapy, a bachelor's degree in exercise physiology, and board certification in functional medicine.  He has guided thousands of clients through challenges like chronic fatigue, weight struggles, autoimmune disorders, thyroid imbalances, and metabolic dysfunction—addressing the true root causes rather than masking symptoms with pharmaceuticals or medical procedures.  His passion for holistic health was born out of personal experience: watching his brother battle leukemia, his father suffer multiple heart attacks, and his mother live with autoimmune disease. These trials forged a mission to uncover why people get sick—and how to truly heal.  Grounded in biblical principles, Dr. Lake's approach integrates faith, science, and natural healing. He empowers individuals to break free from the cycle of prescription dependency and to steward their health with intention. With a following of about 1.5 million across social media platforms, his work reaches a global audience with practical insights, myth-busting education, and faith-driven encouragement.  When not working with clients or educating online, Dr. Lake enjoys time with his wife, Carlie, and their four children, where they live a simple, natural life centered around faith, family, and wellness. He is also a passionate advocate for homeschooling and equipping the next generation for healthy, purpose-filled lives. His mission is simple: to help people reclaim their health, their vitality, and their God-given potential—one life at a time. In this episode: Dr. Lake recounts his social media controversies How long-term birth control alters B6, folate, zinc, and copper levels, impairs methylation, and disrupts hormone balance How to support methylation Ways to address heavy cycles, acne, or hormonal imbalances without relying on birth control How good nutrition, hydration, and maintaining a healthy circadian rhythm can help you balance your hormones The value of reducing chronic stress to prevent cortisol-driven hormone shifts   The importance of avoiding xenoestrogens and supporting detox pathways Links and Resources: Get a 10% discount on Dr. Lake's recommended best basic supplements Purchase Dr. Austin Lake's ebook, Wholly Health Dr. Lake's free health quiz Guest Social Media Links: Dr. Austin Lake on Instagram Dr. Austin Lake on Facebook Relative Links for This Show: ⁠⁠Your Longevity Blueprint: Methyl B Complex – 60 capsules⁠⁠ ⁠⁠Your Longevity Blueprint Omega 3s – 60 capsules Follow Your Longevity Blueprint On Instagram|Facebook|Twitter|YouTube |LinkedIn Get your copy of the Your Longevity Blueprint book and claim your bonuses here Find Dr. Stephanie Gray and Your Longevity Blueprint online Follow Dr. Stephanie Gray On Facebook|Instagram|Youtube |Twitter |LinkedIn Integrative Health and Hormone Clinic Podcast production by Team Podcast

What if medicine focused less on naming diseases and more on understanding why the body falls out of balance in the first place? This episode brings together some of the most respected thinkers in functional medicine: Dr. David Haase, Dr. Mark Hyman, Chris Kresser, and Dr. Bob Rountree.  Together, they explore how a systems-based approach—one that looks at root causes rather than isolated symptoms—can transform the way we understand health, healing, and the human body. This episode offers a clear and compelling look at functional medicine as a framework—not just for treating disease, but for truly pursuing health.

In this episode of The Lisa Fischer Said Podcast, Lisa Fischer sits down with Reed Davis, founder of Functional Diagnostic Nutrition (FDN), to challenge everything you think you know about functional medicine and "root cause" healing. Reed shares his journey from environmental law to health detective, explains why symptoms are not the problem—but signals of deeper metabolic chaos—and breaks down his HIDDEN and D.R.E.S.S. frameworks for restoring health without drugs. They dive into functional lab testing, supplement skepticism, thyroid disorders, chronic fatigue, hives, ADHD, environmental toxins, and why personalized, upstream investigation matters more than diagnoses. This conversation is a must-listen for anyone frustrated with normal labs, endless prescriptions, or one-size-fits-all wellness advice.     WEBSITE: https://www.functionaldiagnosticnutrition.com/     INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/fdntraining/     FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/FunctionalDiagnosticNutrition/     YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7xDnEKCe9gKeWZ2vbE3C8w     EPISODE SPONSOR:  https://www.ralstonfamilyfarms.com/     EPISODE SPONSOR:  https://www.akelscarpetone.com/     EPISODE SPONSOR:  https://www.davidsburgers.com/     LISA'S LINKS:     Lisa Fischer Said Academy:  https://lisafischersaid.com/academy/     Website:  lisafischersaid.com     For more information on group intermittent fasting  coaching with Lisa, email fasting@lisafischersaid.com     For more information on one-on-one or group health coaching with Lisa, email healthcoaching@lisafischersaid.com     Podcast produced by clantoncreative.com    

Send us a textThe truth is out: If your clients are struggling with slow healing, relentless fatigue, or impaired milk production, the cold food in their diet is the root cause. For generations, reductionist nutrition dismissed the ancient, global wisdom of warming foods as mere cultural folklore. They were wrong. This episode is your urgent intervention, proving with hard science that ice water and cold cereal actively deplete the new mother's energy reserves, fueling everything from anxiety to postpartum depression.Maranda dives into the non-negotiable physiology—from digestive enzyme function to nervous system regulation—that proves traditional postpartum care systems (like TCM and Ayurveda) understood holistic health far better than modern medicine. Discover the concrete, scientific mechanisms that validate the Warming Foods Principle and learn how to integrate this critical postpartum nutrition strategy immediately, giving your clients the rapid, foundational recovery they deserve. It's time to stop letting modern convenience trump functional healing!Check out the episode on the blog HERE. Key time stamps: 00:30: The universal consensus: Traditional postpartum care systems across the globe mandate warm foods.04:15: Examples from TCM, Ayurveda, Latin American, African, and European traditions.11:47: Why modern medicine dismissed this ancient wisdom as superstition (reductionism, male-dominated science).19:50: Physiological mechanism 1: Cold food impairs digestive enzyme function at 98.6°F.21:20: Physiological mechanism 2: Cold causes vasoconstriction, impairing blood flow and nutrient absorption.23:45: Physiological mechanism 3: Cold forces metabolic energy expenditure (thermogenesis) the mother can't afford.26:38: Physiological mechanism 4: Cold activates sympathetic "fight or flight," warm supports parasympathetic "rest and digest."29:10: The role of warming spices (ginger, cinnamon, turmeric) in promoting gastric secretions.31:45: The link between warm foods, optimal blood flow, and robust milk production.34:23: Addressing objections: Hot climates and the difference between "refreshing" and "beneficial."36:50: The power of the Three Pillars of Knowledge (Science, Stories, Practice) for optimal perinatal health education.NEXT STEPS:

Gina and Don replay the #149 about naturopathic healing. Dr. Julia Ward is a compassionate and pioneering physician with over a decade of expertise in functional medicine, offering a holistic, patient-centered approach to health and wellness. After earning her medical degree from the University of Southern California and serving in the U.S. Navy, where she practiced general, urgent, and emergency medicine both domestically and abroad, she faced personal health challenges that led her to functional medicine. Frustrated by the limitations of conventional care, Dr. Ward embraced a root-cause approach, completing a fellowship with the American Board of Anti-Aging and Regenerative Medicine in 2016. She has since dedicated her career to empowering patients with knowledge, promoting sustainable lifestyle changes, and integrating cutting-edge science into her practice to address physical and environmental factors impacting health. A devoted wife and mother of five, Dr. Ward combines her passion for medicine with a steadfast commitment to improving lives through transformative care. 281-710-3380 https://drjuliaward.com/ https://www.facebook.com/balancedbodyfunctionalmed https://www.linkedin.com/in/julia-ward-md-55b7672a/ #PatientCenteredCare #PreventativeHealth #RegenerativeMedicine #AntiAging #HealthyLiving #LifestyleMedicine #IntegrativeHealth #WomenInMedicine #EmpoweredHealth #HealthAndWellness #FamilyCare #SustainableHealth #MindBodyMedicine

"A lot of what we do is give patients hope. Give patients hope and listen to them. And that, in itself, is so healing. I think it's so healing and transformative, ...even if they don't get to where they were before, they become the best version of themselves that they can be." ~Elizabth Sult BSN, RN, NC-BC"In conventional medicine, the question is, what's the diagnosis? And once you know the diagnosis, then there's sort of these algorithms that, you try to see if they help. But in functional medicine, once you understand what's the diagnosis, the question is, really, why? Why do you have the diagnosis?And that's where these antecedents, triggers, mediators, all these kinds of ideas come from— to get to the why. But I like to say that the antecedents, triggers and mediators are kind of like Einstein's Theory of Relativity, right? Because an antecedents from one frame might be a trigger from another frame.And so, you know, getting to the real root cause. You might think, Oh, I got to the molecular medicine cause. But actually, it was a spiritual mal-alignment that caused the biochemical issue, because it caused all this stress and strain and all that trickles down to the molecular medicine."  ~Dr. Tom Sult MD, IFMCPAh-Ha MomentsFunctional Nursing asks a different question: Not just what's the nursing diagnosis? But, why is this happening?  And what does this body need to heal? It's about raising wellness so illness has less space to take holdThe Functional Nurse listens for patterns, stories, and turning points. Elizabeth and Tom highlight how powerful it is when Nurses can really listen, and help patients connect the dots in their own health journeyFunctional Nursing and Integrative Nurse Coaching are a natural fit. When Nurses combine root-cause thinking with coaching presence, patients feel seen, supported, and empowered to take steps that fit into their busy livesThe nervous system matters deeply. Functional Nurses learn about how long-term stress and fight-or-flight affect digestion, immunity, hormones, and healing, and why joy, safety, and regulation are essential parts of careThis work restores dignity and hope for patients and nurses. Links and ResourcesFunctional Nursing: A Functional Medicine Framework for NursesFunctional Nursing + Lifestyle Nursing Dual Certificate PathwayJust Be Well websiteBook: Just Be Well by Thomas SultEmail for questions: Integrative Nurse Coach Academy I Integrative Nurse Coach FoundationWe provide nurses with a global community for learning, networking, and reconnecting.

#191 - Home for the Holidays with Dr. Gina Kupchella: The Best Of Functional Medicine, Legacy, and What Actually Heals This episode is a little different — softer, deeper, and honestly one of my favorites. I'm sitting down fireside-style with my dear friend Dr. Gina Kupchella, the physician I passed the baton to at Integrative Wellness Center. It's the day before Christmas, the coffee is hot, and the conversation goes far beyond protocols and lab markers. We talk about how functional medicine really works when it's done well, why so many people are frustrated by cookie-cutter care (even in the functional medicine world), and what happens when you finally slow down enough to treat the whole human — not just the diagnosis. This is a conversation about legacy, trust, root-cause healing, and why doing medicine differently isn't trendy — it's necessary. We cover gut health, inflammation, anti-aging, hormones, longevity, wearables, sleep, and the quiet magic that happens when a practitioner has time to actually listen. If you've ever felt stuck in a cycle of appointments, protocols, and next steps that never quite lead to real change — or if you're curious what functional medicine looks like when it's practiced with integrity, evidence, and heart — this one will land. In This Episode, We Talk About: 00:02 — How Gina and I first met (and why the timing still gives us chills) 00:07 — What surprised Gina most about stepping into a functional medicine practice 00:12 — The biggest myths about functional medicine — and why they persist 00:18 — Foundational labs vs. advanced testing: where to actually start 00:25 — Gut health, inflammation, and why diet is the most underrated anti-aging tool 00:33 — Longevity buzzwords vs. what truly works (peptides, hormones, and the basics) 00:40 — Bioidentical hormones, women's health, and reclaiming quality of life midlife 00:46 — Sleep, wearables, and why your body needs deeper rest than you think 00:52 — Legacy, calling, and why this has to be the future of medicine Why This Conversation Matters This isn't about doing more. It's about doing what actually helps. Functional medicine isn't anti-conventional — it's completing the picture. It's asking better questions, spending real time, and understanding that healing isn't linear, fast, or one-size-fits-all. And maybe most importantly, it's a reminder that medicine practiced with curiosity, humility, and joy doesn't just change outcomes — it changes lives.

In this episode, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Dr. Tracy McCarthy, a brilliant functional medicine physician and psychiatrist, to talk about what it really takes to heal—especially in midlife. We explored how functional medicine goes beyond symptom management and instead focuses on the root causes of chronic conditions like anxiety, fatigue, brain fog, and digestive issues. Tracy's perspective on how nutrition, inflammation, gut health, and lifestyle play into our mental and physical well-being is deeply empowering.As someone who works with women navigating health and identity shifts in midlife, I found this conversation to be a powerful reminder that healing is possible—and it doesn't have to feel overwhelming.

Most conversations about longevity focus on tactics. This episode breaks down the biology underneath them. You'll hear a systems level analysis of how insulin signaling, mTOR, mitochondrial function, inflammation, and nutrient sensing interact to determine biological age, disease risk, and long term human performance. This is not surface level biohacking. It is a deep dive into the mechanisms that actually control aging, metabolism, muscle preservation, and brain optimization, and why most anti aging strategies fail when they ignore these foundations. This all-time classic episode from 2024, has host Dave Asprey joined by Mark Hyman, a practicing physician and one of the most respected leaders in functional medicine. Dr. Hyman is the founder and senior advisor of The UltraWellnessCenter, the founder and former head of strategy and innovation at the Cleveland Clinic Center for Functional Medicine, and a long time advocate for treating root causes instead of managing disease. With over 30 years of clinical experience, his work focuses on restoring mitochondrial health, optimizing metabolism, reversing chronic disease, and slowing biological aging using science backed interventions. Together, Dave and Mark dismantle common myths around protein, carnivore diets, ketosis, fasting, supplements, and longevity drugs. They explain why sugar accelerates aging faster than protein, how mTOR must cycle instead of staying suppressed, and why muscle, mitochondria, and metabolic flexibility matter more than calorie restriction. The conversation also covers nootropics, sleep optimization, neuroplasticity, AI driven diagnostics, and how functional medicine reframes aging as a reversible biological process rather than an inevitable decline. You'll learn: • How insulin and nutrient sensing control aging speed • Why mitochondria sit at the center of longevity and disease • The truth about mTOR, fasting, and protein intake • How ketosis and metabolic flexibility protect long term health • Where supplements and nootropics actually fit in brain optimization • Why functional medicine outperforms symptom based care • How AI and advanced testing are reshaping modern medicine Thank you to our sponsors! - MASA Chips | Go to https://www.masachips.com/DAVEASPREY and use code DAVEASPREY for 25% off your first order. -ARMRA | Go to https://tryarmra.com/ and use the code DAVE to get 15% off your first order. -OneSkin | Try OneSkin for 15% off with code DAVE at https://www.oneskin.co/DAVE.

Sponsored by the Institute for Functional Nursing (IFN) Empowering nurses to lead the future of healthcare through root cause care. Learn more at www.fxnursing.com   What does it really mean to be a disruptor in healthcare, and why are nurses uniquely positioned to lead that change? In this episode of The Functional Nurse Podcast, Brigitte Sager, DNP, dives into how functional nurses are challenging outdated models of care and creating better outcomes through root cause healing, lifestyle medicine, prevention, and education. Drawing from recent insights by Dr. Jeffrey Bland and other functional medicine pioneers, Brigitte explores: What makes a functional medicine nurse a disruptor Why questioning conventional care is a responsibility, not rebellion How functional nurses are transforming care through entrepreneurship, group programs, patient partnerships, and community-based care She also covers the risks, challenges, and rewards of stepping outside the traditional nursing box — from professional reputation and system limitations to policy reform and values-driven practice. If you're a nurse who's ever asked, "Why are we doing it this way?" or felt called to practice differently, this episode is your permission slip to lead, innovate, and disrupt with purpose. Hosted by Brigitte Sager, DNP – Functional Medicine Nurse Practitioner and Functional Nursing Educator.

Send us a textRian Smoak thought he was chasing an Ironman finish line. But as he tells it, “that finish line became my new start line.” Dr. Kevin White reconnects with a longtime friend and endurance athlete whose story runs far deeper than training plans and race photos. Rian shares how growing up under chronic stress shaped his drive, how a health scare forced him to rethink what “healthy” actually means, and how one defining moment in Kona led to the creation of TRI-DAT: a mission built around helping athletes with different abilities experience their own moments of possibility and pride. In this episode, you'll hear how early pressure and perfectionism quietly tax the nervous system, why purpose can change what the body is capable of, and how trading the chase for status or possessions for a cause rooted in service can radically shift both physical and mental health. If you've been living on alert, this conversation is a reminder that your body isn't broken. It's responding to the environment it's been placed in. Start with one decision that lowers the noise, supports recovery, and moves you closer to a life that feels aligned. You can follow Rian's work and the TRI-DAT mission on Instagram at @tridat365.If you enjoyed this episode, follow The Daily Apple and leave a review.

In this powerful episode of Unstress Health, Dr Ron Ehrlich is joined by a true pioneer in healthcare -

After 30 years in emergency medicine, Dr Newman learned a hard truth: She could save patients through their crisis, but they never actually got better. They'd leave with longer medication lists, only to return sicker. It wasn't until her own health crashed during menopause that she discovered cellular medicine - the missing piece that explains why we stay sick. In this conversation with Dr. Siobhan Newman, you'll discover why your mitochondria might be "underwater," her three dietary "nos" that are silently destroying your cellular health, and the recovery-first approach that must happen before any optimization. We dive deep into the inflammatory cascade, why COVID taught us so much about immune dysfunction, and practical steps you can take today to support true healing at the cellular level. If you're tired of managing symptoms instead of addressing root causes, this episode will change everything. For the complete show notes, links and transcripts, visit inspiredliving.show/223

Dr. Neustadt, an expert in integrative medicine, emphasizes the impact of chronic stress on health, particularly cortisol's role in bone loss and gut health. He advocates for personal responsibility in health, highlighting the inadequacy of traditional medical approaches. They discuss the benefits of whole foods, protein intake, and the pitfalls of ultra-processed foods. Dr. Neustadt's company, NBI Health, focuses on high-quality supplements, particularly Vitamin K2 (MK-4) for bone health, which has shown to reduce fractures by over 70%. They stress the importance of reading labels and understanding bioavailability.

Why You Should Listen:  In this episode, you will learn about the role of microglial activation in complex, chronic illness. About My Guest: My guest for this episode is Dr. Jonathan Streit.  Jonathan Streit, DC, CPN, IFMCP is a Functional and European Biological Medicine practitioner.  He has dedicated his professional life to helping patients with complex chronic illnesses.  His passion for this type of work grew from walking with his wife through her own battle with Epstein Barr and Lyme disease.  Since then, Dr. Streit has focused his career on applying and advancing these approaches to address the deeper roots surrounding chronic illness.  He's the co-founder of the Institute for Restorative Health, where he and his team use their BioRestorative Method™ a comprehensive approach that blends European Biological Medicine, Functional Medicine, neurology, nutrition, and terrain-based healing principles.  Dr. Streit has trained with internationally recognized leaders in healthcare, completed postdoctoral work through the American Institute of Postural Neurology, and teaches pathology and functional medicine for the University of Integrative Health doctoral program.  With nearly two decades of clinical experience, he has supported patients across a wide range of chronic health challenges.  To bring these insights to the many still struggling without answers, he wrote "Silent Spark: An Unseen Force Fueling Chronic Illness and How to Heal", a book that sheds light on the often-overlooked deepest roots keeping people sick. Key Takeaways: What are microglia and their role in chronic illness? What are the M1 and M2 states of the microglia? What symptoms or conditions may be associated with chronically activated microglia? What cytokines and interleukins do microglia produce? Is there any testing available to explore microglial activation? What are the most common triggers of the microglia? Can the microglia remain activated long after the threat is gone? What are the primary roles of the microglia? What conditions are associated with under-pruning or over-pruning? Does microglial activation overlap with Mast Cell Activation Syndrome? Does the limbic system play a role in microglial activation? How has COVID further complicated the microglial conversation? What is the role of the microglia in neurodegenerative conditions? Does the external environment play a role in triggering the microglia? What is the gut-brain-microglial axis? How do hormones impact the microglia? Can EMR/EMFs be a trigger for the microglia? What is the role of chronic stress in microglial activation? Do the microglia play a role in pain syndromes or seizures? What treatment options are available to support the microglia?

In this powerful conversation, Sherry sits down with Josh Dech—holistic nutritionist and gut health specialist—for a deep exploration of joy, inflammation, trauma, nutrition, and the true root causes of chronic disease.What begins as a lighthearted exchange about energy and joy quickly unfolds into one of the most comprehensive, grounded discussions on gut health you'll hear—blending science, clinical experience, and humanity.Joy Is a State, Not a Circumstance Josh opens by sharing why it feels natural for him to say life is “great,” even during stressful seasons. Joy, he explains, is not the absence of hardship—it's a chosen state of being. Happiness may change with circumstances, but joy can exist alongside difficulty. This mindset alone sets the foundation for healing.From Paramedic to Root-Cause Healing Josh shares his journey from paramedic to holistic nutritionist, witnessing firsthand how Western medicine often manages symptoms without restoring health. A pivotal moment came when he worked with a 57-year-old woman on 26 medications who—through lifestyle and nutrition changes—went on to break powerlifting world records. That experience shattered the myth that it's ever “too late” to heal.Inflammation Is Not the Enemy One of the most important reframes of the episode: inflammation is not the problem—it's the signal. It's your body trying to heal. The real question becomes, what is the body responding to? You can't numb pain and expect healing; you must remove the thorn.The Gut Disease Spectrum Josh explains how gut dysfunction exists on a spectrum—from bloating, constipation, and diarrhea to IBS, Crohn's, and colitis. When root causes go unaddressed, irritation can progress into autoimmune disease, leaving many people mislabeled as “genetic” or “incurable.”Why Gut Disease Is Exploding In the last 30 years, gut disease has increased fivefold worldwide. Over 50% of cases are in North America, alongside rising pesticide exposure, ultra-processed foods, chronic stress, trauma, and hustle culture. This is not genetics—it's environment.Trauma, Stress & the Nervous System Josh explains how emotional trauma, grief, chronic stress, and even generational experiences can directly impact gut bacteria, immune response, hormones, and inflammation. Healing must address both biology and lived experience.Functional Medicine vs. Sick Care Western medicine asks, “What's the diagnosis?” Functional medicine asks, “Why did this begin?” Healing requires understanding history, not just assigning labels.Is There a Point of No Return? Josh answers clearly: only if an organ has been removed. Even autoimmune disease is only about 25% genetic. The rest is modifiable. He shares stories of people reversing decades of Crohn's and colitis—becoming symptom-free and medication-free.Nutrition Is Not One-Size-Fits-All Food is a tool, not a religion. Plant-based and animal-based approaches can both be healing depending on context, gut integrity, and nervous system state.How You Eat Matters Digestion begins before the first bite. Eating in stress shuts digestion down. Chewing, slowing down, and eating in safety are foundational to healing.Food Quality & Modern Farming Josh emphasizes prioritizing food quality, reducing pesticide exposure, and choosing real food over convenience.Hormones Are Downstream Hormonal imbalances are symptoms—not root causes. Address inflammation, gut health, and stress, and hormones often regulate naturally.Listen to more episodes at makepeacewithfood.com/podcast or subscribe on Spotify, Apple Podcast, and YouTube.Listen to more episodes at www.makepeacewithfood.com/podcast or subscribe to me on Spotify, Podcast, and YouTube so you never miss an episode!Join my Facebook Community: www.myfoodfreedomlifestyle.com Work with me: www.sherryshaban.com/transform Go deeper: www.makepeacewithfood.com Share your biggest takeaway and tag me on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, LinkedIn

I am Jane Hogan, the Wellness Engineer, and the host of Wellness By Design. I spent 30 years designing foundations for buildings until the pain and inflammation of rheumatoid arthritis led me to hang up my hard hat and follow my heart. Now I blend my backgrounds in science and spirituality to teach people how to tap into the power of their mind, body and soul. I help them release pain naturally so they can become the best version of themselves.  Wellness By Design is a show dedicated to helping people achieve wellness not by reacting to the world around them but by intentionally designing a life based on what their own body needs. In this show we explore practices, methods and science that contribute to releasing pain and inflammation naturally.

The immune system is a MASSIVE key to your overall health. So what can you do to best support it and truly THRIVE at any age?  In this episode, pioneering functional medicine expert Dr. Jeffrey Bland joins me to explore how immune system rejuvenation can be a game-changer for long-term health. We dive into the idea that food truly is medicine, and how targeted nutrition (while minimizing ultra-processed foods) can help the immune system recover AND strengthen.  Dr. Bland shares exciting insights on immuno-rejuvenation and spotlights an ancient yet “new” superfood—Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat—that's paving the way for the future of nutrition and longevity. Together, we unpack how chronic stress, inflammation, and poor nutrition quietly tax the body over time, increasing disease risk, and what you can do to interrupt that cycle.  Ready for real healing to occur? Tune into this episode for realistic, practical lifestyle strategies for sleep, stress, and nourishment to help you feel stronger, more resilient, and energized for your years ahead!

And those two systems are interconnected and they regulate how we look, act and feel. They speak to every organ of our body.” “That science supports the fact that when you intervene with the right things [in] your body in a fairly short period of time–three months– [it] can turn itself around.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Use code MARIZA and get 20% off on your Timeline order https://shop.timeline.com/MARIZA Order my new book: The Perimenopause Revolution https://peri-revolution.com/ Dr. Jeff Bland's Website: Big Bold Health Dr. Jeff's Book: The Disease Delusion: Conquering the Causes of Chronic Illness for a Healthier, Longer, and Happier Life Dr. Jeff Bland on Instagram See more from Big Bold Health on Instagram RELATED EPISODES  #667: The Hidden Foods and Habits Fueling Brain Inflammation And How to Reverse It Naturally with Dr. Austin Perlmutter #636: Improve Your Mood, Clear Brain Fog & Reverse Autoimmune Disease by Healing Your Microbiome with Dr. Steven Gundry #601: The Food You Eat Will Impact Your Menopause Journey + Foods to Ease Menopause and Promote Longevity with Dr. Federica Amati 698: Food Noise, Cravings, and Midlife Weight Gain: How to Regain Control Naturally with Sarah Kennedy

Postpartum is not just a recovery phase, it is one of the biggest full body transitions a woman will ever go through. In this episode, Dr. Taz breaks down what actually happens in the fourth trimester, from the steep drop in estrogen and progesterone to fluid shifts, tissue dryness, gut slowdown, metabolic changes, and the mental and emotional load that can follow. You will learn why so many women feel unprepared after birth, why the six week bounce back expectation is unrealistic, and how older systems like Chinese medicine and Ayurveda approached postpartum as a sacred 40 to 100 day window of restoration.Dr. Taz shares: • Why postpartum can feel so destabilizing: the hormone crash, nervous system strain, and energy depletion most women are never taught about • The hidden physical shifts after delivery, including swelling and fluid volume changes that can take months to fully regulate • Why skin, hair, and vaginal dryness are common postpartum, and how this can affect libido, confidence, and self perception • How breastfeeding changes hormones, including oxytocin's calming effect and its relationship with cortisol and mood • Why weight loss varies dramatically postpartum, and how insulin sensitivity, blood sugar history, PCOS, and metabolic factors change the timeline • The gut changes no one talks about: slower motility, constipation, reflux, and why progesterone shifts play a role • The fourth trimester frameworks from Chinese medicine and Ayurveda: rest, warming foods, nourishment, massage, acupuncture, herbs, and community care • A modern 100 day postpartum plan that starts in the third trimester with nutrient optimization, thyroid and blood sugar support, gut health, and a real support circleWhether you are newly postpartum, preparing for birth, or supporting someone in those early months, this episode gives you a clear, practical roadmap to protect energy, reduce depletion, and recover in a way that helps you feel like yourself again.Stay Connected:Connect further to Hol+ at https://holplus.co/- Don't forget to like, subscribe, and hit the notification bell to stay updated on future episodes of hol+.Follow Dr. Taz on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drtazmd/https://www.instagram.com/liveholplus/Subscribe to the audio podcast: https://holplus.transistor.fm/subscribeSubscribe to the video podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@DrTazMD/podcastsGet your copy of The Hormone Shift: Balance Your Body and Thrive Through Midlife and MenopauseHost & Production TeamHost: Dr. Taz; Produced by ClipGrowth.com (Producer: Pat Gostek)

Uno de los grandes temas que surgen al estudiar la microbiota intestinal, es su relación con el desarrollo de alergias en la infancia. ¿Cómo influye la salud intestinal en la aparición de estas condiciones?, ¿qué papel juega la llamada "hipermeabilidad intestinal"? y, sobre todo, ¿por qué algunos niños desarrollan alergias y otros no? En esta conversación también exploramos cuáles son las señales de alerta que los padres deben reconocer para buscar atención médica a tiempo. Nuestra invitada es la Dra. Ingrid Tovar, pediatra funcional, formada en pediatría por la Facultad de Medicina San Fernando - Universidad Mayor de San Marcos en Lima, Perú, con residencia médica en el Instituto Nacional de Salud del Niño. Cuenta con estudios en problemas gastrointestinales y microbioma, realizó el Módulo de Práctica Avanzada Gastrointestinal 2023, en The Institute for Functional Medicine y la Academia de Medicina Funcional. Actualmente participa en un curso sobre microbiota de la Universidad Cayetano Heredia y trabaja en El Instituto de Pediatría Funcional e Integral "Integrando" en Lima. @‌ingridtovaribarra Podcast: Aprendiendo Contigo ¿Tienes algún comentario sobre este episodio o sugerencias de temas para un futuro podcast?  Escríbenos a pediatrasenlinea@childrenscolorado.org.

In this episode, I break down how modern coaching has drifted away from what actually creates lasting results. We talk about the rise of templated solutions is hurting, the misuse of labels, and how fear-based marketing quietly undermines trust between coaches and clients. This is a conversation about responsibility, individuality, and what it really means to guide someone through complex health challenges. Topics discussed: - The functional coaching evolution- Why templates and protocols can undermine outcomes- Labels, language, and their impact on clients- Coaching as guidance versus “hero-based” - Trust, responsibility, and autonomy in the relationship- The marketing difference ---------- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠My Live Program for Coaches: The Functional Nutrition and Metabolism Specialization ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.metabolismschool.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠---------- [Free] Metabolism School 101: The Video Series⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://www.metabolismschool.com/metabolism-101⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠----------Subscribe to My Youtube Channel: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://youtube.com/@sammillerscience?si=s1jcR6Im4GDHbw_1⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠----------⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Grab a Copy of My New Book - Metabolism Made Simple⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠---------- Stay Connected: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: @sammillerscience⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Youtube: SamMillerScience⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook: The Nutrition Coaching Collaborative Community⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok: @sammillerscience⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠----------“This Podcast is for general informational purposes only and does not constitute the practice of medicine, nursing or other professional health care services, including the giving of medical advice, and no doctor/patient relationship is formed.

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared welcomes functional medicine dietitian and gut-health expert Lisa Smith for a deep dive into one of the most overlooked systems influencing hormone balance: the estrobolome. If you've never heard that word before, you're not alone — but by the end of this conversation you'll understand why the estrobolome may be the missing link in stubborn hormone symptoms, estrogen dominance, thyroid sluggishness, mood changes, and even men's testosterone challenges. Jared and Lisa break down how gut bacteria influence estrogen detoxification, what beta-glucuronidase is actually doing behind the scenes, why bile flow matters (especially if you don't have a gallbladder), and how fiber, cruciferous vegetables, and targeted nutrients can support healthy hormone metabolism. This is a practical, empowering discussion designed to help you understand root causes rather than chase symptoms. Whether you're navigating perimenopause, PCOS, thyroid issues, mood swings, stubborn weight, or low energy, this episode brings science down to earth with simple, realistic starting points for rebuilding gut balance and restoring hormonal resiliency — naturally and safely.Products:Precision ProbioticLiverVitality EndoCleanseAdditional Information:Pretty Well PodcastInstagramLisa Smith WellnessVisit the podcast website here: VitalityRadio.comYou can follow @vitalitynutritionbountiful and @vitalityradio on Instagram, or Vitality Radio and Vitality Nutrition on Facebook.
