The continued release of the Epstein files has sparked difficult but necessary conversations across the medical, longevity, and wellness communities. In this candid and deeply reflective episode of New Frontiers in Functional Medicine, Dr. Kara Fitzgerald sits down with Dr. Sara Szal and Dr. Brad Jacobs to explore what this moment calls forward from clinicians — ethically, professionally, and personally. Together, they discuss: • Medical accountability and the responsibility that comes with influence • The ethical obligations of physicians and mandated reporters • How the medical system has failed vulnerable adolescents — especially young women • Power dynamics, patriarchy, and the culture of silence • Trauma, ACE scores, and measurable impacts on long-term health • What practitioners can do differently starting now This is a thoughtful, clinician-focused conversation about integrity, trauma-informed care, and the role healthcare providers play in protecting and supporting patients. If you care about the future of ethical, patient-centered medicine, this is an important listen.

Send a textIf you've been listening to the first few episodes of this year, you know I've been walking us through something intentional — not adding more information, but helping us feel what's been happening underneath the surface in our bodies and nervous systems.In the first episode, I named the shadow crisis beneath the wellness movement.In the second, I talked about how oversimplified, certainty-based wellness backfires in real bodies.In the last episode, I unpacked how science and studies have quietly become authority instead of tools — and what that does to trust and regulation.Today, I'm taking this one step further.Because something bigger is shifting.We're living through a collective decentralization of authority — culturally, technologically, and biologically. And people are feeling it in their bodies before they can explain it.Less tolerance for vague answers.More irritation with one-size-fits-all advice.A nervous system that won't settle when something feels off.A growing refusal to override internal signals just because an expert says you should.This episode explores what's ending — the era of endurance, confusion, and endless tolerance — and what's emerging instead: agency, discernment, and healing through relationship rather than hierarchy.I talk about:why sensitivity without containment leads to exhaustionhow endless awareness became paralysiswhy decisiveness is regulatingwhat decentralization actually feels like in the nervous systemhow to restore inner authority without rejecting science or guidanceand why real healing requires pacing, feedback, and collaborationThis isn't an anti-expert conversation. It's not anti-science. And it's not about doing everything alone.It's about moving out of compliance-based care — where authority overrides lived experience — and into relational care, where guidance supports your body instead of replacing it.Healing doesn't happen through force, endurance, or isolation. It happens through rhythm, feedback, pacing, and relationship.If you've felt less willing to tolerate what doesn't fit, less patient with vague answers, or more aware that your body needs to be consulted instead of managed — this episode will help you understand why.And if you're ready for support that works this way, I share how I approach healing inside my Minerals & Microbes program — using mineral and microbiome mapping as orientation tools, not diagnoses, so we can move coherently and sustainably.This is about reclaiming authority without losing wisdom.About guidance without hierarchy.About healing that feels human again.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
A board-certified psychiatrist trained at one of the most prestigious psychiatric institutions in the world was fired for refusing to put a young woman on medication after the last prescription nearly killed her. Dr. Aruna Nammi left the system and built something radically different, combining functional medicine with 5,000-year-old Ayurvedic wisdom to reverse conditions psychiatry calls chronic and incurable. We go deep on why depression is a disconnection syndrome, the three root causes of all disease, what ancient traditions understood about psychosis that modern psychiatry ignores, and the shift in consciousness that may be unfolding on this planet right now.Trinergy Health Website Visit Center for Integrated Behavioral HealthDr. Roger McFillin / Radically Genuine WebsiteYouTube @RadicallyGenuineDr. Roger McFillin (@DrMcFillin) / XSubstack | Radically Genuine | Dr. Roger McFillinInstagram @radicallygenuineContact Radically GenuineConscious Clinician CollectivePLEASE SUPPORT OUR PARTNERS15% Off Pure Spectrum CBD (Code: RadicallyGenuine)10% off Lovetuner click here

Would you believe that there's a medication that can quiet the constant mental chatter around food for the first time in your adult life, but it could also cause you to lose muscle, age your face, and trap you in a cycle that's hard to escape? Both of those are true. When a drug can help someone lose 50 pounds and get off diabetes medication, that's a miracle. But when that same drug leaves someone unable to eat, losing muscle, and facing a lifetime of injections just to maintain their weight—that's a conversation we truly need to have. So, today we're taking a deep dive into GLP-1s—Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and what's coming next. How to preserve muscle when taking GLP-1 medications Consume 1.2–1.6 g of protein per kilogram of body weight daily, spread across meals Try to eat something containing 25–30 grams of protein within about two hours after doing a strength workout Consume easily digestible protein sources when your appetite is low (shakes, yogurt, collagen, or bone broth) Commit to doing resistance training at least two to three times a week Monitor your body composition for any early signs of muscle loss Bio: Stephanie Gray Stephanie Gray, DNP, MS, ARNP, AGNP-C, ABAAHP, FAARFM, is a functional medicine provider helping men and women build sustainable, optimal health and longevity.

Send a textIn this episode of Never Been Sicker, Michael Rubino talks with functional medicine expert Dr. Will Cole about why chronic symptoms are becoming the norm and why “common” doesn't mean normal. Dr. Cole breaks down the epigenetic mismatch between our biology and the modern world, including food quality, environmental toxins (like mold), and chronic stress and trauma.They also discuss the “big bucket vs small bucket” concept, why some people are hit harder by exposures, and why conventional medicine often misses the root causes behind fatigue, anxiety, inflammation, and metabolic dysfunction.

In this episode, Regan Archibald breaks down why emotional health isn't “soft”—it's biochemical. He introduces the EPIC triggers (Emotions, Pain, Infections, Chemicals) and focuses on how emotions leave a measurable chemical trail that can either support health or accelerate inflammation. Using examples like anger increasing inflammatory signaling (including IL-6) and gratitude/joy supporting nitric oxide and vascular function, Regan explains how repeated emotional patterns can rewire the brain, shape immune behavior, and even override diet, exercise, and supplements if left unmanaged. The takeaway: practice the pause, choose your response, and build gratitude and connection on purpose. Consistency in emotional regulation can shift physiology toward resilience, recovery, and better long-term health.RESOURCES:Book Comprehensive Labs: https://agelessfuture.com/longevity-labs/FREE copy of The Peptide Blueprint: https://agelessfuture.com/blueprintSign up for future Health Accelerator Challenges calls LIVE! https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_YZsiUMOzSyqcE8IinC5YEQ#/registrationBooks: https://www.amazon.com/Books-Regan-Archibald/s?rh=n%3A283155%2Cp_27%3ARegan%2BArchibaldArticles: https://medium.com/search?q=Regan+ArchibaldLIKE/FOLLOW/SUBSCRIBE:YouTube -https://www.youtube.com/@ReganArchibald / https://www.youtube.com/@Ageless.FutureLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/regan-archibald-ab70b813Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ageless.future/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AgelessFutureHealth/DISCLAIMER: This video is for educational purposes only and does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

What if the missing piece to your wellness journey wasn't a supplement or a workout… but light? In this podcast, we're talking about one of the most underrated tools in health and hormone optimization: red light therapy. Expert in the area, Ari Whitten, joins me to shine light on red light and all the ways it can boost your health and confidence long term. Ari is a bestselling author, a top podcast host, and one of the most trusted voices in the science of energy, mitochondria, and red light therapy. In this episode, we cover: Why red light therapy is a game-changer for women in midlife How it impacts your hormones, sleep, brain, skin, and fat metabolism What most people get completely wrong about red light dosing And how to avoid wasting money on the wrong devices Ari's here to cut through the wellness noise and deliver the truth—with clarity and science to back it up. Tune in here for a deep dive into all red light therapy can do for you! Ari Whitten, M.S. Ari Whitten is the founder of The Energy Blueprint and bestselling author of The Ultimate Guide to Red Light Therapy and Eat for Energy. He has a B.S. in Exercise Science and a Master of Science in Human Nutrition and Functional Medicine. For over 30 years, he's immersed himself in nutrition science, exercise physiology, and evolutionary biology, as well as cutting-edge areas like neuroscience, geroscience, circadian science, microbiome research, and more. He hosts The Energy Blueprint Podcast, and his books, online programs, coaching, and nutritional supplement line have helped thousands of people worldwide to optimize their health, energy, and longevity. IN THIS EPISODE What is red light therapy, and how can it benefit your health? How to make time for red light therapy in your routine The importance of high-quality red light therapy Different red light devices for targeting your needs in the body The science and studies behind red light therapy How to maximize systemic benefits of red light therapy About Ari's book: The Ultimate Guide to Red Light Therapy QUOTES“There's an enormous amount of poor quality devices, worthless devices, junk devices on the market that are a waste of money that won't do anything valuable.” “If your interest is combating arthritis or affecting a certain muscle or tendon injury or ankle sprain or something like that, you want to focus on the dose of light delivered directly to those tissues. On the other hand, if you are interested in general anti-aging health longevity... The bigger concern is actually the total dose of light delivered to your overall body.” “A lot of the focus is on the intensity of the light… But the other thing is: how big of a surface area is that intensity of light hitting? What is the total amount of light delivered to the tissue? That's going to hugely impact those systemic effects like the release of stem cells into your circulation.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Order Ari's book: The Ultimate Guide to Red Light Therapy on Amazon https://theenergyblueprint.com/ https://www.amazon.com/Ultimate-Guide-Light-Therapy-Revised/ The Energy Blueprint Website The Energy Blueprint Podcast RELATED EPISODES 623: RED LIGHT THERAPY FOR UPGRADING YOUR MITOCHONDRIA, CELLULAR ENERGY, SKIN AND BRAIN HEALTH WITH JONATHAN OTTO 693: TIRED ALL THE TIME?

Welcome to "Thriving in Midlife" The Women's Guide to Wellness, Longevity & Hormones After 40. This is your trusted space to cut through the noise, ditch the overwhelm, and finally feel extraordinary in your body, mind, and life. Are you who are ready to stop pushing through life and start living it with intention, energy, and ease? Then let's get started. I'm your host, Kellie Lupsha, a high-performance health coach, who is delighted to be your guide to vitality.In this episode, I'm diving into a conversation I know so many women need right now, especially if you started the year feeling hopeful and motivated but somehow still exhausted. I'm sharing why “doing all the right things” isn't always enough and why real, lasting energy doesn't come from chasing symptoms. It comes from activating the systems that run your body. This episode is an invitation to stop pushing harder and start working smarter with your energy, your body, and your health.Key Highlights:➡️ Why "doing everything right" still leaves you drained, and what we're missing in the conversation➡️ The critical difference between chasing symptoms and activating your body's core systems➡️ How your nervous system silently hijacks your energy (and what "regulation" really means beyond meditation)➡️ Why muscle isn't just for strength, it's your body's energy currency and longevity organ➡️ The surprising link between feeling "safe" in your nervous system and your ability to generate vitality➡️ How cellular energy sets the stage for everything from immunity to motivation➡️ Why your gut isn't just about digestion, it's wired directly to your energy levels and mood➡️ The identity shift that transforms you from someone who wants energy to someone who generates it➡️ Simple daily activation habits that work with your biology not against itKey Takeaways:“Energy isn't something you find. Energy is something you generate.” -Kellie Lupsha"If the nervous system isn't regulated, your body doesn't think you're safe, you're not going to lose weight. You're not going to sleep well. You're going to have no energy." -Kellie Lupsha*TAKE THE FREE ~ DISCOVER YOUR MIDLIFE HEALTH BLUEPRINT*****>>> Click Here

OVERVIEW: In this episode, Ashley welcomes Kristin Oja, CEO and founder of Stat Wellness, to discuss the importance of longevity through functional medicine. They explore key topics such as inflammation, blood sugar regulation, and the significance of muscle mass in maintaining health as we age. Kristin emphasizes the need for a holistic approach to wellness, focusing on lifestyle changes, nutrition, and the importance of consistency over perfection in health practices. Takeaways Functional medicine focuses on root causes rather than just symptoms Chronic low-grade inflammation is a major health issue. Sleep, stress, and diet are key drivers of inflammation. Blood sugar regulation is crucial for weight loss and overall health Muscle mass is essential for metabolic health and longevity. Strength training should be prioritized to prevent muscle loss with age. Carbohydrates are important for muscle recovery and growth. Small, consistent changes can lead to significant health improvements. Avoid added sugars in food for better health outcomes. It's never too late to start strength training.

Gut health can be a hidden driver of chronic migraines—especially when it shows up as sugar cravings, inflammation, and hormone imbalance. In this episode, Dr. Taves and functional medicine nutritionist Hallie Brooks explain how gut dysfunction and microbiome imbalance can lower your migraine threshold, why sugar cravings are often biology-driven (not just willpower), and how PCOS/estrogen dominance can overlap with headache patterns.At Novera, we teach that lasting migraine relief requires addressing three essential components. This episode is a deep dive into Component #3: overall health.Novera: Headache Center
I've been helping people with autoimmunity for years, but since 2020, I'm seeing more overlap with chronic fatigue and long COVID than ever before. That's why I brought Dr. Evan Hirsch on the show - he's the EnergyMD who's cracked the code on why 99% of these cases have the same root causes. What he reveals about who actually gets long COVID will surprise you. We dive into his "Toxic Five" framework, why your lab work might be normal but you still feel terrible, and his four-step recovery method that's helping people reclaim their energy in 6-12 months. If you're exhausted despite "normal" test results, this conversation is for you.For the complete show notes, links and transcripts, visit inspiredliving.show/230

Send us a textWelcome back to the Rewilded Wellness Podcast. I'm your host, Lydia Joy.Today's episode builds directly on the last two I released this year:In The Shadow Crisis Beneath the Wellness Movement, we named the bigger paradigm people are trying to heal inside of—over-treatment, information overload, loss of containment, and the way modern wellness inherited an intervention-first mindset.In The Epidemic of Oversimplified Wellness — and Why It Backfires, we looked at how single-nutrient narratives and influencer-style certainty destabilize real bodies.Today, I'm pulling on the next thread: the study obsession—and how “science” is being used as authority instead of context, leaving people disconnected from their own biology.I also name the wider backdrop we're living in: Pluto in Aquarius (through 2044)—a long era where power struggles move through information itself: who controls it, who interprets it, and who we're taught to trust. You don't have to be into astrology to feel what's happening: nervous systems fried by information velocity, algorithms replacing embodied knowing, collapsing trust in institutions, and a decentralization of authority that is both necessary and chaotic.This is not an anti-science episode.It's an anti-outsourcing-your-inner-authority episode.We'll talk about what research is actually for (tools, mechanisms, hypotheses)—and what happens when studies become universal rules, moralized “truth,” or permission slips that override basic biological feedback.Inside this conversation, I break down:why most people aren't reading studies, they're absorbing claims about studieshow narrow, short-term, artificial research gets used as life prescriptionswhy “science-backed” becomes a form of compliance that traps the nervous systemhow constant correction creates incoherence, vigilance, depletion, and loss of trustwhat an ecosystem lens looks like instead—where information informs, but does not dominateAt the higher expression of this era, the invitation isn't to reject knowledge—it's to contextualize it. To decentralize authority without collapsing into chaos. To restore the relationship between you and your body so that data can support discernment instead of replacing it.If you've been doing everything “right,” reading all the research, following the data—and still not getting the results you were promised… this episode is for you.And if you're ready for more coherent support, I share how I work through my Minerals & Microbes program using HTMA and microbiome mapping as terrain tools—not diagnoses—so we can organize, pace, and build stability over time.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

In this episode of The Better Life, Dr. Pinkston sits down with Jaclyn Downs, MS, a certified functional genomics expert and author of Enhancing Fertility Through Functional Medicine. While many people have heard of the "MTHFR" gene, Jaclyn explains to Dr. Pinkston why that is only the tip of the iceberg. They delve into how functional genomics—the study of subtle genetic variations you can actually influence through diet and lifestyle—holds the key to solving chronic issues like infertility, anxiety, migraines, and poor detoxification. In this episode, you’ll learn: Genetics vs. Genomics: The difference between fixed mutations and "snips" (SNPs) that you can optimize with nutritional cofactors. The "Folate Trap": Why taking high doses of methylfolate can sometimes backfire if your B12 levels aren't addressed first. Beyond MTHFR: Why looking at the big picture (including pathways like glucuronidation and histamine metabolism) is vital for hormone health and longevity. Personalized Medicine: Why "automated" genetic reports often lead to "analysis paralysis" and why a customized, practitioner-led approach is essential. Environmental Triggers: How toxins, stress, and poor soil quality interact with your unique genetic blueprint. Whether you are struggling with unexplained infertility, chronic fatigue, or just want to optimize your "healthspan," this conversation provides a roadmap for using your DNA as a tool for empowerment rather than a source of fear.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In this eye-opening conversation, functional medicine expert Dr. Mark Sherwood challenges everything you thought you knew about aging and health for women over 40. He starts with a powerful mindset shift: you're not old, you're not even halfway through your best years yet. Dr. Sherwood debunks popular health myths circulating on social media (including those parasite cleanses flooding your Instagram feed) and explains why fear-based marketing is leading women astray. He breaks down the critical differences between Western medicine, functional medicine, and holistic healing, emphasizing that health isn't determined by genetics but by daily choices.This episode dives deep into what women in their 40s, 50s, and beyond need to know about hormone balance during perimenopause and menopause. Dr. Sherwood explains how declining progesterone and testosterone affect weight, sleep, brain fog, and libido, and why it's not "normal" to just accept these changes. He shares practical guidance on movement, nutrition, stress management, and the importance of hormone replacement therapy for longevity and quality of life. Whether you're just starting your health journey or looking to optimize what you're already doing, this conversation provides a roadmap for living your best life with energy, clarity, and strength well into your 100s.Visit Dr. Mark Sherwoods Website HereJoin the "Get Over Your EX 5 Day Challenge."

Send a textIn times of collective overwhelm, how do we cultivate resilience and find ease in our bodies? In this conversation, I sit down with Dr. Alexandra Johnson, a family physician who integrates Breema body work and functional medicine into primary care, to explore how fear manifests in the body—and what we can do about it.What You'll Learn:Why anxiety and fear aren't just "in your head"—they live in your body as tension, and what that means for your healthThe ancient practice of Breema body work and its nine principles of harmonyWhy traditional anxiety treatments often fall short (and what's missing)How disconnection from ourselves creates the conditions for chronic anxiety, insomnia, digestive issues, and moreThe difference between pain and suffering—and how to reduce suffering even when pain is presentSimple, practical nervous system resets you can do anywhere (including a guided self-Breema practice)How to use discomfort as medicine rather than something to push awayWhy "being comfortable in your body" is actually a revolutionary actKey Themes:This episode explores the intersection of Ayurveda, somatic work, and Breema—revealing how these ancient systems share a common understanding: that healing happens when we reconnect mind, body, and spirit. Dr. Johnson shares her unique approach to supporting patients through chronic conditions like constipation, migraines, and anxiety by addressing not just the physical symptoms, but the deeper disconnection from self.We talk about the power of presence, the principle of "no judgment," and how everything we consume—from food to media to experiences—becomes something our bodies must digest. This conversation is a beautiful reminder that you don't need expensive supplements or complicated protocols to begin healing. Sometimes, the most profound shifts come from the simplest practices: taking a breath, asking "can I be more comfortable?", and coming home to your body.About Dr. Alexandra Johnson:Dr. Alexandra Johnson is a family physician who integrates Breema body work and functional medicine into primary care. She supports patients in moving from fear and burnout to vitality through evidence-based medicine and mind-body healing.

Dr. McFillin was a guest on the popular Health Ranger Report. This is the full interview. He was joined by Tracy Thurman-a person of faith until a cardiologist—not a psychiatrist—put her on Prozac for "energy." Within weeks, her connection to God vanished. She became a materialist atheist for seven years. In this episode, Tracy and Dr. McFillin expose what they call the psychiatric industrial complex's "spiritual weapon of war"—and why these drugs are designed to make you feel dead inside and that experience is measured as "working". A fascinating episode featuring a topic rarely discussed.
Hey Friend, If you've been hitting a wall by mid-afternoon… craving sugar even though you're “eating well”… or feeling like weight loss just won't respond anymore— this episode was for you. In today's conversation, I slowed things down and walked through blood sugar stability—what it actually is, why it matters more than calories after 35, and why your body may not be working against you at all. In fact, it may be doing exactly what God designed it to do: protect you. Here's what we covered: What blood sugar stability really means (and what it doesn't) Why blood sugar is a communication system, not a standalone issue How stress, cortisol, hormones, and the nervous system are affected by unstable blood sugar Common signs your blood sugar may be swinging—without needing fancy testing Why weight gain after 35 isn't punishment, but feedback The role of consistent nourishment and protein in calming cravings and stabilizing energy Why this is a long-term stewardship issue, not a quick fix One of the most important reminders from this episode is this: Your body isn't broken. It's responding. When blood sugar swings up and down, your body compensates by raising cortisol, increasing fat storage, and staying on high alert. That's not failure—that's a safety response. And the good news? Communication can be supported. Patterns can change. Health can be restored—slowly and sustainably. Your next step (keep it simple): I've created a Simple Blood Sugar Foundations Guide to help you understand what your body is asking for without dieting, tracking, or overwhelm. This guide is available inside my membership, The Women's Functional Health Lab. The Lab opens February 13th, and waitlist members receive early access and bonuses (the price does not change). If this episode resonated, I strongly encourage you to get on the waitlist so you don't miss those extras. And remember—you don't need to fix everything. You just need to start with the next right step. In grace + health, Lacy Lain Before you go…

In this episode, Amber Warren, PA-C explains the 2025 to 2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans and what the flipped food pyramid means for metabolic health. She explores increased protein needs, whole foods, healthy fats, and why reducing refined carbohydrates is critical for insulin resistance, inflammation, and gut health.

This episode connects the latest dietary guidelines with a functional medicine, root-cause approach to long-term health and prevention.
In this episode of Ageless Future, Cade Archibald challenges the common view of muscle as merely cosmetic or mechanical, revealing instead that skeletal muscle functions as a powerful endocrine organ. He explains how contracting muscle releases signaling molecules called myokines that communicate with the brain, liver, immune system, and fat tissue—regulating metabolism, reducing inflammation, improving insulin sensitivity, and supporting cognitive health. Cade highlights why muscle is the body's largest glucose “sink,” making resistance training one of the most effective strategies for diabetes prevention and reversal. He also dives into the dangers of sarcopenia, emphasizing that muscle loss is not just weakness but a systemic breakdown that accelerates aging and increases vulnerability across every major body system. The episode closes with practical takeaways on preserving strength, building resilience, and treating muscle as one of the most essential foundations of longevity.RESOURCES:Book Comprehensive Labs: https://agelessfuture.com/longevity-labs/FREE copy of The Peptide Blueprint: https://agelessfuture.com/blueprintSign up for future Health Accelerator Challenges calls LIVE! https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_YZsiUMOzSyqcE8IinC5YEQ#/registrationBooks: https://www.amazon.com/Books-Regan-Archibald/s?rh=n%3A283155%2Cp_27%3ARegan%2BArchibaldArticles: https://medium.com/search?q=Regan+ArchibaldLIKE/FOLLOW/SUBSCRIBE:YouTube -https://www.youtube.com/@ReganArchibald / https://www.youtube.com/@Ageless.FutureLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/regan-archibald-ab70b813Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ageless.future/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AgelessFutureHealth/DISCLAIMER: This video is for educational purposes only and does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

Once you see dysfunction, once you know it's there, you can't go back. That was the case for Vijaya Hunt, who learned about tongue tie from a parent perspective with her first child and made it her mission to learn more about how to support dyads with oral dysfunction. Vijaya's oral function knowledge has shaped her family and even extended families lives. In this episode, Katie Oshita and Vijaya Hunt discuss oral function, paid leave, adult releases, and more. Listen here.Podcast Guest: Vijaya Hunt is dedicated to supporting mothers and infants in achieving their feeding goals in Brisbane, Australia. She is a highly committed professional, a mother of two, and an experienced educator in infant feeding support. Her journey in lactation began early, becoming an IBCLC at the age of 18 — a reflection of her longstanding passion for helping families thrive through breastfeeding. Despite her qualifications in midwifery and lactation consulting, she encountered significant challenges when breastfeeding her first child. After consulting multiple specialists, it was the guidance of an IBCLC with expertise in oral dysfunction that finally enabled successful feeding. This experience, including four weeks of perseverance before achieving a full latch, profoundly shaped her clinical approach. With more than four years of firsthand insight into feeding difficulties, she is driven by a clear mission: to thoroughly assess and address the underlying causes of feeding challenges, providing evidence-based care with empathy and persistence for every family she serves.Podcast Host: Katie Oshita, RN, BSN, IBCLC has over 25 years of experience working in Maternal-Infant Medicine. While Katie sees clients locally in western WA, Katie is also a telehealth lactation consultant believing that clients anywhere in the world deserve the best care possible for their needs. Being an expert on TOTs, Katie helps families everywhere navigate breastfeeding struggles, especially when related to tongue tie or low supply. Katie is also passionate about finding the root cause of symptoms, using Functional Medicine practices to help client not just survive, but truly thrive.

Dr. Vaish Sarathy speaks with Dr. Kendall Stewart (former surgeon turned functional medicine + genomics clinician) about the biochemistry of learning: how inflammation, metabolic factors, neurotransmitter balance, and genetics can influence regulation, sensory stability, and why some kids respond to interventions while others don't. What we cover: Why progress can look like "good days/bad days" when inflammation fluctuates Nutrigenomics vs exome sequencing vs pharmacogenetics (and why personalization matters) A parent-friendly clinical framework: inflammation → autophagy/insulin tendencies → neurotrophic factors → glutamate/GABA → methylation Sensory stability (vestibular/visual) and why eye contact can reduce listening for some learners Microbiome basics: inflammation load, butyrate, absorption/biofilms Resources Dr. Kendall Stewart: https://drkendallstuart.com Non Linear Education (NLE): https://www.drvaishsarathy.com/nonlineareducation Medical disclaimer (important): This episode is for educational purposes only and does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

Is modern medicine still evidence-based, or have we quietly mistaken rigor for certainty?Evidence-based medicine is essential. It's why we save lives, advance care, and trust modern healthcare. But as medicine has become more specialized and disease more complex, something subtle has happened. Rigor has increasingly turned into reductionism, and evidence is often applied in ways that don't fully match the realities of clinical practice or patients' lived experiences.In this episode of The Trip Lab, I take a careful look at what we mean when we say “evidence-based medicine.” We explore the difference between statistical significance and clinical significance, how guidelines are created and why they are evidence-informed rather than infallible, and why many patients feel unwell despite having “normal” labs.This conversation also examines how modern research methods struggle to capture complexity, particularly in chronic, system-level disease. We look at where reductionism has helped medicine advance, where it now falls short, and why ancient healing systems and emerging fields like systems biology, functional medicine, and precision medicine are pointing us toward a more integrated future.This episode is not a rejection of evidence. It's an invitation to reclaim it. To restore clinical wisdom alongside data, and to practice medicine with both rigor and curiosity.In this episode, we cover:What “evidence-based medicine” actually means and how it's evolvedStatistical significance vs. clinical significanceThe strengths and limitations of medical guidelinesWhy reductionist models don't fully explain chronic diseaseWhy patients can feel unwell even when labs are “normal”How medicine might evolve to better study complexityWhy medicine is both a science and an artThe podcast name, The Trip Lab, nods to psychedelics, but a “trip,” psychedelic or otherwise, is ultimately an exploration. A willingness to step outside familiar frameworks, question what we think we know, and notice connections that weren't obvious before.If you've ever felt tension between what the data says, what the guidelines allow, and what the patient in front of you actually needs... or if you are a patient who has been failed by modern medicine, this episode is for you.
I've watched too many brilliant women struggle with weight despite doing everything "right.", so I asked Ashley Koff to join me and expose why the system has been rigged against us and reveals the real science behind the hormones that control our metabolism. Ashley shares her journey from "weight hot mess" to expert, explaining weight-health hormones like GLP-1, why your gut rules your entire ecosystem, and her revolutionary "deliciousness test" that fixes broken satiety signals. We dive into why 9 out of 10 Americans fail basic metabolic health tests, how GLP-1 agonists work as tools (not magic bullets), and why autoimmunity is really an operating system error. This conversation will change how you think about weight, health, and the tools available to support your body. For the complete show notes, links and transcripts, visit inspiredliving.show/229
Heart Health Month opens with a powerful, eye-opening conversation on cholesterol, root-cause healing, and whole-person wellness. Dr. Georgia Nabs explore why cholesterol is so misunderstood, the real story behind statins, and how inflammation, blood sugar, liver health, and lifestyle choices all intersect to shape heart health. From functional testing and advanced diagnostics to simple, practical daily shifts, this episode reframes what it truly means to care for your heart. Blending science, compassion, and lived experience, the conversation invites listeners to move beyond fear-based medicine and into empowered, informed, and proactive wellness—where education becomes the foundation for lasting health and vitality. Key Takeaways: True heart health begins by understanding root causes, not just managing symptoms or lab numbers. Cholesterol is more complex than "good" and "bad," and context matters more than fear-based assumptions. Inflammation, blood sugar balance, and liver health play a central role in cardiovascular wellness. Empowered patients ask better questions and become active participants in their healing journey. Sustainable wellness comes from education, consistency, and small daily choices that compound over time.
