Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Martha Carlin, CEO and founder of the Bio Collective.
Martha Carlin, CEO and founder of the Bio Collective, details the significant influence of the microbiome on overall health. Martha discusses her unconventional path from accounting to microbiome research, sparked by her husband's Parkinson's diagnosis. Together, they explore the complex connections between gut health and diseases like Parkinson's, autism, and even Alzheimer's. Martha sheds light on groundbreaking research funded by NIH grants, the potential of machine learning and AI in understanding microbiome patterns, and the future prospects of personalized probiotics. Practical advice on maintaining a healthy microbiome, the impact of diet and exercise, and the intriguing intersections between gut health, neurochemistry, and systemic diseases are highlighted. The discussion also covers challenges in integrating microbiome research into clinical practice and potential future therapies.
Parents are asking a fair question: is what's on the school tray really food? In this episode of the Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast, host Jamie Belz and guest Shari Gilford, NTP (Full Table Nutrition) open the lunchbox and get practical about raising healthier kids—at school and at home. The conversation swings from frustrations to solutions. Listeners will hear why many “kids' foods” are hyper-processed, hyper-palatable, and nutrient-void—and how families can pivot to real, brain-fueling meals without perfectionism or overwhelm. Shari Gilford is a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner who helps children and families build nutrition habits for lifelong health. Through Full Table Nutrition, she educates and inspires families to enjoy fresh, whole foods and be nourished for life. Diagnosed with hereditary kidney disease at age 11, she understands how poor health can disrupt childhood—and why preventing obesity and type 2 diabetes (a leading cause of kidney disease) matters. Her mission is to help transform the health of an entire generation. In this episode, expect: Clear, compassionate guidance on sugar, dyes, and ultra-processed “food-like products,” including why kids average ~17 teaspoons of added sugar/day, how that relates to focus, mood, and classroom behavior, and why protein-first breakfasts change the school day. Practical lunchbox wins: muffin frittatas; meatball “muffins”; leftover taco meat with crunchy chips; tuna or salmon salad for omega-3 brain power; beef sticks; hard-boiled eggs; colorful produce that packs and keeps. Picky-eater strategies that actually work: involve kids in choosing veggies (beet or grated carrot salads, jicama “dippers”), taste-training away from constant sweetness, and fun “compare & prepare” nights to find favorite veggie textures. Smart swaps & step-downs: the sugar-cube visual (4 g = 1 cube), gradual transitions from sweetened to unsweetened peanut butter and yogurt, and moving from juice to whole fruit. A simple at-home experiment kids love: three days of protein-strong breakfasts vs. one high-sugar morning—then track energy, mood, focus, and “battery level.” Parent empowerment: how to teach kids the “why,” build a two-week rotation of packable meals, and make real food doable on busy school mornings. This conversation is hopeful and hands-on—less about guilt, more about doing the next right thing with real food that steadies minds, builds bodies, and sets kids up to thrive. Resources & Related Episodes: Episode 35: Childhood Obesity Shari's Web Page For Recipe Book Recommendations Shari's Book Recommendation: Getting to Yum: The 7 Secrets of Raising Eager Eaters by Karen Le Billon When looking for quality recipes, I always check to see if they use whole, nutrient-dense, properly prepared foods: quality proteins (grass-fed meats, pastured eggs, wild-caught fish), traditional fats (butter, coconut oil, olive oil, tallow), and a colorful variety of vegetables, with limited natural sweeteners and no refined/processed ingredients.

In this episode, Dr. Robert Whitfield speaks with Kate Middleton, better known as KB, a toxic-free lifestyle advisor and host of Toxic Free with KB. Her personal experience with autoimmune issues, mold exposure, and stress-related burnout shaped her commitment to helping others reduce toxic load and live more intentionally. Dr. Whitfield and KB discuss the mental strain of toxic perfectionism, the overlooked impact of decision fatigue, and how choosing simplicity can support long-term balance.

Summary In this episode, Ali Damron discusses the complexities of perimenopausal symptoms, emphasizing the significant role of the nervous system in amplifying these symptoms. She explores the differences in how women experience hormonal fluctuations and the importance of addressing both hormonal and nervous system health for effective treatment. The conversation also covers various treatment options, including HRT and antidepressants, and highlights the necessity of managing stress and integrating neuroplasticity strategies for lasting relief. Takeaways Perimenopausal symptoms vary greatly among women. The nervous system significantly influences symptom severity. Hormonal fluctuations are not the sole cause of symptoms. HRT can be beneficial for many women. Stress management is crucial for symptom relief. Integrating neuroplasticity can enhance treatment outcomes. Women often feel broken due to ineffective treatments. Teaching the brain to feel safe is essential. Both hormonal and nervous system support are necessary. A holistic approach is key to managing perimenopausal symptoms.

You'll often hear host Jamie Belz, FNTP, MHC say that the Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (NTP) program changed her life. In this fun, personal, and insightful roundtable episode of the Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast, Jamie sits down with three current NTP students to share how the program is already transforming their health, their families, and their futures. Just over three months into their studies with the Nutritional Therapy Association (NTA), these students are proving how powerful it is to learn the Foundations of Health—digestion, nutrient-dense diet, blood sugar regulation, sleep, stress, movement, and hydration. No band-aid fixes here—this is about getting to the root cause of health and disease, and honoring the truth of bio-individuality: there is no one-size-fits-all approach to wellness. Discover how nutrition and lifestyle foundations are changing lives in real time: Michlind shares her passion for filling the nutrition gap in youth who have aged out of foster care, parents reuniting with their children, and anti-human-trafficking recovery programs. Katie, a culinary pro living with Crohn's disease, explains how bio-individual nutrition transformed her gut health and daily life. Alyson opens up about her journey from residential eating disorder treatment to vibrant health through nutrient-dense, whole foods and the power of bio-individuality. Together, they open up about: The sleep stages and circadian rhythm hacks that blew their minds. Why digestion truly is the cornerstone of health—and how even chewing changes everything. The myths of the low-fat movement, the truth about fats and gallbladder health, and how diet culture has failed us. Simple, practical wins you can try today—like apple cider vinegar before meals, soaking and sprouting grains, or turning off screens before bed. What it really means to be your own health advocate when mainstream solutions fall flat. This episode is packed with nutrition tips, digestion insights, and inspiring stories of transformation. If you've ever thought, “It's all too much—where do I start?” this conversation will offer a variety of starting points as well as some of the science backing the foundational teachings of the NTA. Tune in, laugh with us, and get inspired by the next generation of Nutritional Therapy Practitioners who are already changing the world with the truth that food really is medicine and while "UNhealth" might be normal, it's certainly not the only way to go.

In this episode, we're unraveling what it means to detox—a term that's been hijacked by marketing, criticized by mainstream headlines, and misunderstood by nearly everyone in between. While flashy “detox cleanses” and miracle teas deserve skepticism, the dismissal of detox altogether ignores an important truth: detoxification is a real, ongoing biological process essential to health. We'll explore what detox actually means, how your liver, kidneys, gut, lungs, skin, and lymphatic system work together to keep you resilient, and why modern life challenges these systems more than ever. You'll also learn about evidence-based ways to support natural detoxification—through nutrition, lifestyle, and botanical medicine—without gimmicks or quick-fix promises. If you've ever wondered whether detox is fact or fiction, tune in. The reality is both simpler and more profound than the headlines suggest: detox isn't a myth, it's medicine.
Alzheimer's and dementia are some of the scariest realities for adults to consider. No one wants to feel like they're going to lose their mind!But in this day and age, it feels like cognitive decline is inevitable for many of us, “just a normal part of aging.”Similarly, our culture has come to accept that many kids are neurodivergent, that their brains are wired differently. We diagnose it as ADHD or ASD, or we see that 1/3 of our teens have clinical anxiety and we think, “It's just the way the world is. We'll help them navigate.”My guest today, Dr. Kristine Bosnar, wants us all to push back against acceptance. In fact, she says that the neuro-inflammation at the root of Alzheimer's and dementia is the SAME as what we see in kids with ADHD and other mental health struggles!

In this powerful episode, Dr. Cindy Libert takes you behind the scenes of your own biology, uncovering how sex hormones—estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, and DHEA—are the silent directors of brain health, mood, memory, energy, and even sleep.
