Have you been told your thyroid labs are "normal" but you still struggle with fatigue, brain fog, and weight gain? Could a Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA) uncover hidden mineral imbalances that are keeping your Hashimoto's or hypothyroidism symptoms from improving?In this episode, I'm taking you through a real client success story so you can see exactly how I use HTMA testing to connect the dots between someone's symptoms and what's really happening inside their body. We'll go through where this client started, what her test results revealed, and why those findings helped explain years of frustrating symptoms despite her doing everything “right.”I break down the key mineral patterns we found in her HTMA results, explain how they manifested in her body, outline the optimal levels of certain minerals, and show you how we built a personalized plan based on her results rather than relying on guesswork. I also share why I believe testing is one of the most important steps for creating a targeted healing plan, especially when you're dealing with Hashimoto's or hypothyroidism.Finally, we go over her progress over several months, what changed on her retesting, and the lessons you can take away for your own health journey. With HTMA testing, this is what's possible when you stop chasing symptoms and start understanding what your body is trying to tell you. I hope this episode helps inspire you to take that first step toward taking the guesswork out of your health and start on your own path toward optimized health.

When the Chiropractor Became the Patient: Dr. Jason Gilbert on Mercury Toxicity and Healing Episode Description What happens when a chiropractor who has spent decades helping other people heal suddenly becomes the patient himself? In this episode of Conversations with a Chiropractor, Dr. Stephanie Wautier talks with Australian chiropractor, author, educator, and World Surf League sports practitioner Dr. Jason Gilbert. Jason's career began with an unexpected move to South America, where he discovered that chiropractic care was largely unavailable. Armed with a portable table, a plastic spine, limited Spanish, and a deep belief in the body's ability to heal, he began treating patients in Peru and traveling through the Andes and Amazon. What started as a personal adventure grew into two decades of clinical work, television appearances, public education, and involvement in one of Latin America's earliest university chiropractic programs. Jason shares how a single television invitation brought dozens of families into his clinic, how his work eventually led him to host health programming, and what he learned while introducing chiropractic to communities that had never experienced it. But Jason's greatest lessons came when his own health began to fail. He describes developing severe symptoms after having dental amalgam fillings removed, eventually being told that his mercury level was dramatically elevated. That experience led him into functional medicine and changed the way he understood toxicity, nutrition, recovery, and the causes behind chronic symptoms. Jason also shares the spinal injury that ultimately required surgery, despite years of helping other patients avoid operations. His recovery introduced him to hyperbaric oxygen therapy, which later became an important part of his professional work. Stephanie and Jason explore chiropractic philosophy, spinal health, nervous system function, mercury toxicity, functional medicine, hyperbaric oxygen, surfing injuries, stress, sleep, hydration, nutrition, live-blood microscopy, ionized water, and the foundational habits that support health. This is a conversation about becoming a pioneer, learning through adversity, and discovering that even the practitioner sometimes has to become the patient. This episode includes personal experiences and discussion of chiropractic care, dental amalgam removal, mercury testing, spinal surgery, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, live-blood microscopy, alkaline or ionized water, supplements, and other wellness practices. The views and experiences shared belong to the guest and may include uses or claims that are not established for every condition. This episode is educational and is not a substitute for individualized medical or dental care. Consult qualified professionals before changing treatment, removing dental fillings, or beginning hyperbaric oxygen therapy.

Everyone wants better health, yet more information isn't always the answer.Health has never been more accessible. We have podcasts, books, social media, YouTube, AI, and endless Google searches have placed information at our fingertips. Even with all of those resources, you may still feel stuck because information alone doesn't create transformation.In this episode, I want to pull back the curtain on why I created the Wilderness of Wellness and why we've moved our community to Substack. This isn't simply about changing platforms. It's about creating a place where women can stop trying to figure everything out on their own and begin healing alongside people who truly understand the journey.We'll talk about why community matters, why accountability is one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself, and why personalized coaching can never be replaced by technology. AI has incredible value as a tool, yet it will never replace real relationships, shared experiences, biblical encouragement, or wise guidance from people who know your story.Healing was never meant to happen in isolation.If you've been trying to carry your health journey by yourself, this conversation may be exactly what you need to take the next faithful step.Resources mentioned in this episode:• Join the Wilderness of Wellness on Substack• Learn more about Adventures• Connect with our community and weekly live trainingsSERVICES & MEMBERSHIPS:Cholesterol BootcampAdventurerSubstackCoffee Cafe How to Fix Your Energy Cravings and MoodFirst Steps ClinicBeholdWork With Dr. DanielleFoundational PackageComprehensive PackageAmazon StorefrontFREE RESOURCES:Telegram - The Wilderness CafeDr. Danielle's Root Cause Reset Guide

What does it actually mean to age well? In this episode of SHE MD, Mary Alice Haney sits down with former professional volleyball player, entrepreneur, and wellness advocate, Gabby Reece, for an honest conversation about strength, longevity, and redefining what healthy aging looks like. Gabby shares how her perspective on fitness has evolved over the years, why building muscle is one of the most important investments women can make, and how recovery has become just as essential as training itself.Together, they discuss practical ways to build sustainable habits that support long-term health, from strength training and nutrition to sleep, stress management, hydration, and recovery. Gabby explains why having a meaningful "why" is the foundation of lasting lifestyle change, how to stop chasing perfection, and why focusing on small, consistent improvements often leads to the biggest results.The conversation also explores menopause, body image, and the societal pressures women face as they age. Gabby opens up about learning to stop comparing herself to younger versions of herself, embracing the different strengths that come with every stage of life, and why she believes aging isn't about becoming invisible.Whether you're in your 20s, navigating perimenopause, or looking for sustainable ways to feel your best at any age, this conversation offers an empowering perspective on what it truly means to build a healthy, fulfilling life.Subscribe to SHE MD Podcast for expert tips on PMOS, endometriosis, fertility, hormonal balance, mental health, and more.

We've all seen the talking heads online preaching the exact same gospel: cold plunges, intermittent fasting, and a mountain of wearable tech, all in the name of stacking extra years onto your life. But as I've said throughout this series, good strategies fail every single day simply because they are the right thing at the wrong time. You cannot build true longevity on top of a broken metabolic foundation.But once you have cleared the obstacles of Stage 1 (Restoration) and hardwired your progress in Stage 2 (Optimization)... what comes next?Welcome to the final, never-ending phase of your health journey: The Vital Capacity Stage.In this episode, I'm breaking down why it's not enough to simply want to live longer—you have to want to live better. I don't want a long life if it means being confined to a care facility, unable to feed myself. I want high-quality functionality. To get that, we have to look past the superficial biohacks and focus on expanding your actual "Vital Capacity"—the comprehensive potential of your cardiovascular, musculoskeletal, nervous, and immune systems working in perfect harmony.Tune in as I tackle the ultimate health conundrum and share:The Real Killers: Why we are obligated to look past the "bogeyman" of cancer and aggressively protect our cardio and neurovascular health.The Exercise Conundrum: How to reconcile needing resistance training and cardio to build a resilient body when you currently have zero exercise tolerance and even simple chores cause you to crash.Exercise as a Therapeutic Tool: Exactly why your Stage 1 Root Cause Disruptors are destroying your stamina, and how we introduce movement safely and early to help you heal.The Infinite Stage: Why the first two phases of your journey have concrete end points, but building vital capacity is a lifelong, rewarding process.It's always a great day when a client tells me they can play with their kids, go on trips, or work in their garden again without crashing. That joy is what this final stage is all about. Let's talk about how to stop looking at the future with despair, and start looking at it with hope.Is your health journey feeling like too much to manage on your own? Stop the DIY guesswork.

Check Out Sahil Bloom's Newsletter That Inspired This Episode What if having more choices is actually making you less satisfied with the life you're building?  In this episode, we explore a fascinating psychological study from Harvard that challenges the common belief that keeping your options open always leads to better outcomes.  You'll discover why our minds respond differently to permanent decisions versus reversible ones, and how that shapes our happiness, confidence, and commitment.  We also examine how modern technology has created a world overflowing with options, from careers and relationships to health advice and personal growth.  While endless possibilities can feel empowering, they can also leave us constantly wondering if something better is just around the corner.  This episode introduces the idea of the "eject button mentality", the temptation to abandon meaningful pursuits the moment they become uncomfortable or uncertain.  We discuss why the end of the honeymoon phase isn't necessarily a sign that you've chosen the wrong path, but often the point where real growth begins.  You'll learn how to distinguish between healthy persistence and knowing when it's truly time to move on. Rather than making major decisions in moments of frustration, we'll explore the value of evaluating your circumstances with a clear and steady perspective.  If you've ever questioned a relationship, career, business, or personal goal simply because the excitement faded, this conversation offers a fresh way to think about commitment.    Time Stamps:   (3:02) The Eject Button Mentality (9:32) My Thoughts On This Article (14:08) What Commitment Looks Like (23:02) Having A Trusted Advisor --------------------- Find Out More Information on Vital Spark Coaching --------------------- Follow @vanessagfitness on Instagram for daily fitness tips & motivation.  --------------------- Download Our FREE Metabolism-Boosting Workout Program --------------------- Join the Women's Metabolism Secrets Facebook Community for 25+ videos teaching you how to start losing fat without hating your life! --------------------- Click here to send me a message on Facebook and we'll see how I can help or what best free resources I can share! --------------------- Interested in 1-on-1 Coaching with my team of Metabolism & Hormone Experts?

For years, Jordana Brewster quietly lived with a life-altering diagnosis that few people knew about. After suffering a seizure at 28, she learned she had a cavernous malformation (CVM), a rare vascular condition in her brain that made carrying a pregnancy dangerously high-risk. While continuing a successful acting career, she privately managed her condition, navigated fertility treatments, and ultimately chose gestational surrogacy to grow her family.In this candid conversation, Jordana joins Mary Alice Haney to share the emotional realities behind IVF, infertility, surrogacy, and the difficult decisions that come with protecting both your health and your dream of becoming a parent. She also opens up about undergoing awake brain surgery, overcoming the stigma of living with a neurological condition, healing from disordered eating, and how divorce, blended family life, and finding love again gave her the courage to embrace a completely new chapter.Subscribe to SHE MD Podcast for expert tips on PMOS, endometriosis, fertility, hormonal balance, mental health, and more.

In the last episode, I pulled back the curtain on why jumping straight to the internet's favorite longevity hacks is a massive mistake if your foundational health is still broken. But let's say you've actually done the hard work of Stage 1. You've identified your Root Cause Disruptors, cleaned up your diet, and hit that 75% baseline improvement marker.Are you out of the woods? Not even close.In this episode, we are diving deep into Stage 2 of the journey: The Optimization Stage. This is where a lot of practitioners fail their clients, because if you stop active protocols the moment you start feeling better, your body will almost always backslide right to where you started.Why? Because of a phenomenon called Metabolic Reprogramming.Just like your brain can learn negative loops, your cells and systems can literally memorize their own dysfunction, creating a "bad muscle memory" that aggressively resists change. Optimization is the 6-to-12-month phase where we use Time Under Protocol to fight back, hardwire your progress, and rewrite your body's baseline.Tune in as I break down how to crack your body's unique code during this phase, including:The Tug-of-War: Why chronic illness resists long-term change and how to rewire it.Sticking Points: How to spot the specific physiological systems or lab markers that refuse to budge.The Domino Effect: Mapping your unique Flare Sequence so you know exactly which domino falls first when you crash—and how to bounce back faster.Therapeutic Exercise: Why you might have low exercise tolerance right now, and exactly when to safely introduce movement to expand your vital capacity.Getting better is about active problem-solving; staying better is about building metabolic stability and resilience so your old normal never wins again. Let's get into it.Ready to stop the DIY guesswork and map out your own health journey? Let's talk. Click the link below to request a one-on-one Zoom consultation so we can look at your history, nail down your goals, and get you moving from dysfunction to design.LINKSSee the full video version on YouTubePrefer audio?

Have you ever felt like you've tried every diet, every meal plan, and every strategy, yet you still struggle with food, body image, or find yourself starting over every Monday? What if the breakthrough you're looking for isn't another nutrition plan, but a deeper connection with God? In today's episode, we're talking about how to invite God into your health journey through prayer. Because prayer doesn't just have the power to transform your habits—it has the power to transform your heart. So often, we focus on changing our behaviors while overlooking the deeper struggles underneath them. But lasting freedom isn't found in more willpower or self-control alone. It's found in daily dependence on the One who created you, knows you completely, and cares about every area of your life—including your health. My prayer is that today's conversation encourages you to stop carrying this burden on your own and start inviting God into the process. And if you're looking for additional support and accountability, I'd love to walk alongside you. I offer one-on-one coaching for women who are ready to break free from the cycle of dieting and create a healthier relationship with food and their bodies. You can email me at taraj@dietditching.com to learn more. Also, be sure to join our Facebook community, Lose Weight, Live Free, where you'll find encouragement, practical tips, and support from other women on a similar journey.

What does it actually look like to invite God into your health journey? In this special Q&A episode, Fr.

We talk about hearing God's voice, growing closer to Him in busy seasons of motherhood, seeing yourself the way God sees you, and what it looks like to invite Him into every area of your life, including your health. If you've ever felt distant from God, struggled with body image, or wondered where to start in building a deeper relationship with Him, this conversation is for you. Fr. Canice McMullen is originally from State College, PA.  After graduating from Penn State with a degree in accounting he felt a call to the priesthood.  As a priest he has served in various ministries such as campus ministry at the college and high school level as well as parish work.  He is currently assigned to St. John Gualbert Cathedral in the diocese of Altoona Johnstown  Connect with Fr.

Addiction affects millions of people, yet it remains one of the most misunderstood and stigmatized medical conditions. This week on SHE MD, Mary Alice Haney sits down with Dr. Sarah Wakeman, a nationally recognized addiction medicine specialist, Harvard Medical School faculty member, and leading advocate for evidence-based addiction treatment.Dr. Wakeman shares how her experiences treating patients revealed a troubling reality: people struggling with addiction are often treated very differently than those with other chronic illnesses. Together, they explore why addiction is a medical condition, not a moral failing, and what needs to change in healthcare, policy, and public perception.The conversation also dives into alcohol use, women's unique health risks, pregnancy, breast cancer, and the growing body of research on how alcohol impacts long-term health. This episode is an eye-opening discussion about stigma, recovery, compassion, and the power of treating addiction with science instead of judgment.Subscribe to SHE MD Podcast for expert tips on PMOS, endometriosis, fertility, hormonal balance, mental health, and more.

She is double board-certified in Internal Medicine and Addiction Medicine and serves as the Program Director of the Massachusetts General Hospital Addiction Medicine Fellowship.Throughout her career, Dr. Wakeman has been at the forefront of transforming how substance use disorders are treated, advocating for evidence-based, compassionate care that replaces stigma with science. She has helped develop innovative treatment programs, mentored the next generation of addiction medicine specialists, and worked to expand access to life-saving care for patients across the healthcare system.As a physician, educator, and national thought leader, Dr. Wakeman is passionate about changing the conversation around addiction; helping people understand that substance use disorder is a medical condition, not a moral failing, and that recovery is possible with the right support and treatment.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

On this deeply personal episode of SHE MD, co-host Mary Alice Haney sits down with her lifelong best friend, Stacey Hunt, to share the story of how listening to the podcast led Stacey to advocate for herself, and ultimately, catch her breast cancer early enough to save her life.After hearing the Olivia Munn episode and learning about lifetime breast cancer risk assessments, dense breast tissue, and the importance of MRIs for high-risk women, Stacey decided to take action. Despite having a recent “clear” mammogram and no symptoms, she pushed for additional testing after learning her lifetime risk score was 28%. That MRI revealed a tiny invasive lobular breast cancer hidden beneath extremely dense breast tissue; something her mammogram missed entirely.Together, Stacey, Mary Alice, and Thais Aliabadi have an emotional and eye-opening conversation about self-advocacy, early detection, dense breasts, genetic testing, the realities of a breast cancer diagnosis, treatment decisions, reconstruction options, menopause after cancer, and the emotional toll that comes with survivorship. This episode is both a powerful reminder that early detection saves lives and a call for every woman to know her lifetime risk of breast cancer.Subscribe to SHE MD Podcast for expert tips on PCOS, endometriosis, fertility, hormonal balance, mental health, and more.

Inspired by the podcast's conversations around breast cancer risk assessments and early detection, Stacey advocated for additional screening despite having a recent negative mammogram and no symptoms. Her persistence led to the discovery of an early-stage invasive lobular breast cancer hidden beneath extremely dense breast tissue; a diagnosis that may have otherwise gone undetected for years.In this powerful episode, Stacey shares her deeply personal journey through diagnosis, self-advocacy, treatment, and recovery, offering an inspiring reminder of the importance of knowing your risk, trusting your instincts, and speaking up for your health.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

I hear this from women all the time: “I'm doing everything I used to do, but my body just won't respond anymore.” In this episode, I sit down with midlife health expert Natalie Jill to talk about what's actually happening to women in their 40s and 50s…from hormones and cortisol to inflammation, visceral fat, GLP-1s, muscle loss, and the workouts that may be doing more harm than good. We also get into menopause myths, nervous system dysregulation, breast implant illness, and what women can realistically do to feel strong, healthy, and confident again.

Following the overwhelming response to the Hailey Bieber episode, SHE MD sits down with Sera Prognostics CEO Zhenya Lindgardt and Chief Medical Officer Dr. Tiffany Inglis for a powerful, science-backed conversation about preterm birth, maternal health, and the pregnancy blood test most women, and most doctors, have never heard of. They unpack how a simple test taken between 18 and 20 weeks can predict and help prevent preterm birth in women who would otherwise be considered "low risk."This conversation goes deep into the science behind the PreTRM test and the two proteins it measures. The doctors explain why other current screening methods miss nearly 80% of women who will go on to deliver prematurely, and how the preTRM® test is changing maternal care from reactive to preventive. They break down the role inflammation and placental health play in pregnancy, and how the preventive protocol used in the PRIME study helped reduce early preterm births by 56%. They also dive into the emotional, physical, and financial toll of NICU stays, disparities in maternal healthcare, and why women need better access to personalized pregnancy care.This episode is ultimately about agency: knowing your individual risk, advocating for the care you deserve, and shifting maternal medicine from reactive to preventive. Whether you're pregnant, planning to be, or supporting someone who is, this conversation delivers the science, the resources, and the mindset shift that could change the trajectory of a pregnancy and the lives that depend on it.Learn more here: https://pretrm.com/?utm_source=shemd&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=founders_ep Subscribe to SHE MD Podcast for expert tips on PCOS, endometriosis, fertility, hormonal balance, mental health, and more.

EASE OS™: The Human Skills · Episode 2 Most people are navigating their health by filling the gaps between disciplines without realizing that is what they are doing. The acupuncture, the functional medicine, the physical therapy, the nutrition protocol — each one skilled, none of them in conversation with each other. And the burden of figuring out how it all connects has been placed quietly on you. In this episode Dr. Connie names the invisible labor of fragmented care, explains why it produces consistently incomplete results at the physiological level, and shares the story of a patient who resolved four years of chronic pain in a month — not because any individual treatment was better, but because the sequence was finally right. What you will take away: • Why skilled individual practitioners consistently produce partial results when working in isolation • How the burden of integration was transferred silently to the patient  • What fragmented care actually does to the body physiologically • The story of a four-year pain journey resolved in one month through sequence • The map exercise — seeing your own fragmented care picture clearly for the first time • The closing question to carry into the week Apply for the Clinical Diagnostic Intensive — link below ↓ https://www.drconniecheung.com/Clinical-Diagnostic-Intensive Four spots this month.

She's 70 years old, holds a PhD she earned in her late 60s, and looks like she cracked the code on aging. But Dr. Catharine Arnston isn't selling a beauty secret she's sharing 17 years of research into two of the most scientifically documented superfoods on Earth: spirulina and chlorella.In this episode of SHE MD, Mary Alice Haney and Dr. Aliabadi sit down with Dr. Catharine Arnston, Chief Scientific Officer of ENERGYbits, for one of the most eye-opening conversations we've had on this show. It started with her sister's breast cancer diagnosis and a pivot away from a 25-year corporate career. What she found in the research changed everything she thought she knew about energy, brain health, aging, and women's bodies.This isn't wellness fluff. There are over 100,000 peer-reviewed studies on these two algae. NASA has been feeding them to astronauts for 50 years. The United Nations endorsed spirulina as the answer to world hunger. And yet most women in the Western world have never heard of them.Learn More Here: https://energybits.com/discount/SHEMD?rfsn=9096638.6abd9cc1&utm_source=refersion&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=9096638.6abd9cc1What You'll LearnWhy algae was the first life on Earth and why that matters for your bodyThe difference between macroalgae (seaweed, kelp) and microalgae (spirulina, chlorella)How spirulina creates cellular energy without the crash of caffeine or sugarWhat phycocyanin is and how this blue pigment behaves differently in healthy versus unhealthy cellsWhy mitochondria decline with age and how to protect them with nutritionThe role of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and why your body stops making it after age 30Why menopause damages women's mitochondria twice as fast as men'sHow chlorella detoxes heavy metals, glyphosate, aluminum, and other environmental toxinsWhy chlorella is essential for anyone on a GLP-1 or any weight loss journeyHow chlorella naturally supports serotonin, melatonin, sleep, and bowel motilityThe right dosage of each algae by age, condition, and time of dayWhy high heat in processing kills the benefits of most algae on the marketThe truth about excess stored iron, inflammation, and "rusting from the inside" after menopauseHow ENERGYbits are sourced in Taiwan in triple-filtered mountain spring waterHow to use algae for weight loss, sleep, brain fog, skin health, and longevityKey Timestamps00:00 Welcome Dr. Catharine Arnston & Why Algae Matters00:25 Catharine's Sister, Cancer, and the Origin of ENERGYbits01:49 Plant-Based Nutrition and the Otto Warburg Discovery02:46 Why People Don't Eat Vegetables (and What to Do About It)03:28 Why No One Knows About Algae Despite 100,000 Studies04:19 Why NASA Feeds Algae to Astronauts04:43 Algae Is Food, Not a Supplement06:45 "Aging Is Natural, Declining Is Not"07:08 Macroalgae vs. Microalgae Explained08:24 Why Lake & Ocean Algae Can Be Toxic09:27 Spirulina: Energy at the Cellular Level10:22 Why Algae Protein Beats Animal Protein10:49 Dosage 101: When and How Much to Take12:13 Phycocyanin: The Blue Pigment That Targets Unhealthy Cells14:34 The Electron Transport Chain & ATP (The "Ferrari" Analogy)15:48 Aging, Mitochondria & Cellular Decline16:13 Superoxide Dismutase (SOD): The Hidden Antioxidant17:53 Why Menopause Hits Women's Mitochondria Twice as Hard19:38 Brain Fog, Depression & Damaged Mitochondria20:37 Mary Alice's Family History & The Case for Prevention22:10 How Fast You'll Feel It & Mitochondrial DNA Regeneration23:16 Anti-Angiogenesis & Stopping Tumor Blood Supply24:10 Chlorella: The Body's Tow Truck for Toxins27:45 Chlorophyll, Hemoglobin & Building Your Blood28:35 Glutathione, Liver Health & Tryptophan29:03 Chlorella, Serotonin & Mood29:34 Chlorella for Bowel Motility30:25 The Athlete Protocol (NHL & NFL Dosing)31:12 Sleep, Melatonin & Why Chlorella Works at Night32:54 Chlorella for Chemotherapy Recovery36:01 Pricing, Daily Cost & the Discount Code36:45 Important: Talk to Your Oncologist Before Combining38:17 Algae for Weight Loss & GLP-1 Support40:32 Safety, Sourcing & Why ENERGYbits Are Grown in Taiwan42:20 Catharine's Trip to Taiwan & Why It Matters43:31 Excess Iron, Menopause & "Rusting From the Inside"46:07 Final Thoughts & Why Consistency Wins47:32 Absorption, Exosomes & Why Algae Works So Fast48:39 Dosage for Kids, Husbands & Pets49:41 Beauty Bits: The Pink Spirulina for Skin & Hair51:07 Mary Alice Starts Her Algae JourneyKey TakeawaysAging is natural, declining is notAlgae is food, not a supplement, so your body recognizes and absorbs it instantlySpirulina nourishes & energizes, chlorella detoxes & repairsYou need both algaes for different reasons, especially after 40Most brain issues trace back to damaged mitochondriaWomen lose antioxidant and hormone protection twice as fast as men in menopauseThe right dosage matters more than the right ingredientConsistency beats intensity, your body is not a light switchMost supplements are artificial, your body wastes up to 90% of themToxins live in your fat, so detoxing is part of any weight loss journeyThe science exists, the connection between scientists and women is what's missingMother Nature provided answers long before pharmaceutical companies didWhat you can't see at the cellular level is often what's hurting you mostGuest BioDr. Catharine Arnston is the founder and Chief Scientific Officer of ENERGYbits, the medical-grade algae company she launched 17 years ago after pivoting from a 25-year international corporate career to research plant-based nutrition for her sister, who had been diagnosed with breast cancer. Her research led her to spirulina and chlorella, two microalgae backed by more than 100,000 scientific studies, and to a mission of bringing clean, hand-sourced algae nutrition to women, families, and elite athletes around the world. Catharine earned her health coaching certificate from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition and went on to complete her PhD in her late 60s, becoming one of the most credentialed and outspoken advocates for algae nutrition in the world. Her upcoming book, Love Your Health to Bits with Algae, set for an October release, distills 17 years of research into accessible, "science with sarcasm" guidance for the everyday reader. Catharine lives by the philosophy that "aging is natural, declining is not" and is on a mission to make algae as common in the Western world as it has been in Asia for the past 60 years.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
