In this episode of the Fruitful Fertility Podcast, I'm joined by my client and friend Charlotte for a powerful conversation on identity, faith, and hope during the fertility journey. When you're walking through infertility or months of waiting, it's easy to ask, “Who am I if I can't get pregnant?” Together, Charlotte and I talk honestly about: ✨ What identity in Christ really means for women walking through infertility ✨ How we can lose our sense of self when fertility struggles consume us ✨ Practical steps to reclaim your identity and find encouragement in God's truth ✨ Why hope and encouragement are essential when waiting on God's timing This episode is filled with hope for women trying to conceive naturally, encouragement for those battling comparison or self-doubt, and reminders that your worth is not defined by lab results, ovulation tests, or pregnancy announcements. If you've been longing for reassurance and a faith-based perspective on your fertility journey, this conversation will help you refocus on Christ, rebuild your confidence, and walk forward with peace.

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend! I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks… Chrissy: Hi dr Cabral Is it ok to that estrogel and progesterone for menopause if you have lymphoedema ? Or will it make it worse .. kind regards Chrissy Kay: Hi Dr. Cabral- What are your thoughts on Metformin combined w Naltrexone topiramate and Vit B12 for Tx of PCOS? My 31 y.o. daughter has tried over the last few years to manage her PCOS w traditional Chinese herbs, acupuncture, yoga & pilates which have only given her limited success. Her HbA1c were in the pre-diabetic range. She lives in the NYC area w a demanding job. Now, working w a Functional Med provider, her tests showed high levels of cortisol throughout the day & hormonal imbalances. Weekend hikes & being near nature on occasion have helped her stress levels as shown by her Oura ring data. After about a month of the Rx regimen, she has noticed an improvement in her HbA1c and has hired a personal trainer. For true, sustainable wellness, what do you recommend? Becky: Hi Dr. Cabral! Thank you for ALL that you do and thank you for using your story to help heal others! I am an IHP2 and need advice. I am working with a client, she is in her mid 30s and she has had horrific breath and overall dryness of her entire body since a child. Her dad and siblings have the same issues along with her oldest daughter. She has tried EVERY imaginable product to fix her breath with zero success. She has done the 21 day detox, & is finishing up the CBO Protocol with H.Pylori & will be starting the Finisher. She did a HTMA last year with someone else but nothing alarming. She is hopeless that her breath can't be fixed. What is your suggestion as to what direction we should go next? She does not drink filtered water, is on birth control & an anti depressant. THANKS!!!! Kayley: I am 24 yrs old 5'2" 123lbs. I have diagnosed Rheumatoid Arthritis that has severely impacted my life. I currently take Methotrexate, Plaquenil, Folic Acid, and Folinic Acid. I am struggling with debilitating fatigue, and my IBS has recently flared up. Is there anything you would suggest doing to improve energy levels? Amanda: Does chiropractic treatment benefit children diagnosed with ADHD?

Are you doing “all the right things” to boost your fertility—but still not seeing those two pink lines? In this episode, I'm sharing 5 surprising habits you need to quit if you want to get pregnant.

Terrain Work: Why Your Body's Story Matters More Than Your SymptomsAfter 11 years of tissue mineral analysis and 44 personal tests, I've learned that sustainable healing isn't about chasing symptoms or following one-size-fits-all protocols. It's about understanding your unique terrain - your genetics, constitution, life story, and the environmental factors that shaped your health journey.In this vulnerable birthday episode, I share the biggest insights from my decade-plus healing journey, including how I finally moved from survival mode to true optimization. I dive into why personalized medicine must go beyond lab results to include your genetic bottlenecks, astrological constitution, and shadow work - elements completely missing from traditional clinical approaches.What you'll discover: • Why genetics "load the gun" but environment "pulls the trigger" - and what this means for your healing • How sulfur pathway challenges can sabotage even the best protocols (and which popular supplements made my gut worse) • The astrology-mineral connection that revolutionized my approach to supplementation • Why I was stuck in cell danger response for years and how getting out changed everything • The shadow work piece that clinical medicine ignores - but tribes understood intuitively • How understanding your metabolic type and constitutional needs prevents healing plateausThis isn't just another HTMA episode - it's an invitation to see your body as an integrated system with its own unique story, patterns, and needs. Real terrain work addresses your whole self: your environment, your history, your emotional landscape, and your constitutional blueprint.If you're tired of protocols that work for everyone else but not you, this episode will shift how you think about personalized healing forever.Mentioned in this episode: • My July 15th episode "Making Sense of Detox: What Hair Tests and Methylation Really Tell Us" • My 2020 interview with airway specialist Michale Chatam on cellular voltage • Last year's "10 Years of HTMA Insights" birthday episodeReady for truly personalized healing?

Let's do HTMA together! The HTMA Bundle If you've ever felt like hope is slipping away in your fertility journey, you're not alone. The waiting, the negative tests, and the constant pressure can leave you feeling stuck in fear instead of faith.

These steps will help you shift your perspective, quiet the overwhelm, and remind your body and heart that you are not broken — you're simply in need of the right support. We'll talk about how prayer keeps you grounded in God's promises, why having a clear roadmap takes away the guesswork, how tracking your progress helps you see small but meaningful wins, and why it's so freeing to speak your fears out loud instead of bottling them up.

I've had clients come to me with thousands of dollars in functional labs, and still no answers for their health issues; which means they wasted their money. Labs like a GI map (gut microbiome), OAT (organic acid test), HTMA (hair tissue mineral analysis) and other tests can be helpful, but they may not be needed; and in some cases, they're downright wasteful of your money.

Shop my top suggested supplements for improving fertility from Frequense Rise + Source In this special 100th episode, I'm sharing the truth about what it really takes to improve your fertility naturally — and it's not perfection. It's consistency. Whether you're just starting your TTC journey or feel stuck after months (or years) of trying, this episode will challenge and encourage you to keep showing up, even when it feels like nothing is happening. Because in fertility — just like in faith — the breakthrough often comes after the quiet obedience.
Feeling wrecked even though your labs are “normal”? In this episode, we sit down with Sophie Shepherd, FDN-P and founder of She Talks Health, to unpack why minerals are the spark plugs of your metabolism, thyroid, and mitochondria—and why you should nourish first, detox later. We cover HTMA (Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis), Hashimoto's, copper dysregulation, mold, trauma/stress (the “two T's”), somatic work, and why so many “type A, I-do-everything-right” women are still bloated, brain-fogged, inflamed, and exhausted. If your free T3 won't rise, your iron won't budge, or you've got supplement fatigue, this one's your permission slip to rebuild your foundation and finally heal.

Welcome back, everyone! This week is part seven of the Minerals Decoded miniseries, and we're going to take a deeper look into a really fascinating and often misunderstood pattern that can show up on an HTMA test. This is known as the calcium shell pattern. What exactly is a calcium shell? If you've ever felt stiff, disconnected, or even emotionally numb, this pattern might resonate with you. A calcium shell shows up on the HTMA when calcium levels are abnormally high, leading to calcification in soft tissues rather than the bones and teeth. This pattern can lead to physical symptoms such as joint and muscle pain, fatigue, and even serious issues like osteoporosis and kidney stones. Emotionally, it can cause a person to feel disconnected or emotionally numb, making it hard to process stress and emotions effectively. In this episode, we'll explore the various causes of a calcium shell, including excessive copper, iodine deficiency, stress, and emotional trauma. I'll share case studies, explain what HTMA markers to look out for, and most importantly, how to break it up and restore balance to your calcium levels. I'll also share some supplements and minerals that can help, the role of emotional support in restoring calcium levels, and ways to manage the detox symptoms that might arise as you begin the healing process.If you're struggling with similar symptoms, I encourage you to stop guessing and get tested. Check the show notes for links to my HTMA testing package and other helpful resources like the Mineral Mocktail Guide.

Let's do HTMA together! The HTMA Bundle Shop Frequense Rise + Source Have you been told everything looks “normal” on your labs… yet you're still not getting pregnant? In today's episode, we're diving into 4 surprising and overlooked root causes of unexplained infertility that your OB or fertility clinic likely isn't testing for — but that could be the missing link in your journey to motherhood. As a registered nurse and holistic fertility coach, I've seen time and time again how addressing these hidden root causes can fast-track pregnancy naturally, without needing to spend thousands on IUI or IVF. Whether you're newly trying to conceive or deep into your fertility journey and feeling discouraged, this episode will give you hope, clarity, and practical next steps.
I was really excited to sit down with Michael McAdams because his story beautifully bridges two worlds I see so many people trying to reconcile: traditional faith and intuitive spiritual connection. Raised in a Christian home, Michael has remained deeply grounded in his faith but also open to receiving messages and guidance in ways that challenge conventional teachings.We talked about how his intuitive gifts unfolded, how his mother, once skeptical of psychic work, became a powerful channel for spiritual messages, and what it means to walk a path rooted in truth-seeking rather than dogma. This conversation touched me because I know how many people in my community are craving spiritual depth but feel torn between the faith they grew up with and the gifts they're awakening to now.If you've ever felt caught between religion and intuition or you're just curious about what it looks like to hold both with integrity, this one's for you.Copywrite @AmandaPanacea Lets work together!· https://thehealerrevolution.com/ · Learn about my testing and coaching services: https://youtu.be/U7o17WErb84si=aaDZyp7txO6txtzm · Free 15 mins clarity call https://l.bttr.to/cih5BMy Most popular Courses, Guides, and Product Referrals· Product Links https://shopmy.us/amandapanacea· Feel to Heal: Transform Triggers into Calm (My signature course): https://feeltoheal.co/ · MCAS and histamine intolerance guide https://l.bttr.to/ivR0z· How to Heal MCAS and Histamine Intolerance Webinar: https://l.bttr.to/3Qnmv · HolyHydrogen Molecular Hydrogen: https://holyhydrogen.com/Panacea · King Coffee (Reishi spore infused organic coffee): https://thehealerrevolution.myorganogold.com/en/premium-gourmet-king-of-coffee/ Are you a practitioner, coach, or want to be? · Get certified in Bioenergetic testing: https://bioenergetics.learnworlds.com...· Learn HTMA and sign up for the HTMA app: https://hairanalysis.report/ref/165/ · Learn how to use and source Peptides (for non practitioners also!): https://amandapanacea--designergenes.thrivecart.com/pepsquad/ · Functional Genomics and Epigenetics: https://thedesignergenesco.com/bbd?affiliate=amandapanacea · Learn to read Mold labs and OAT: https://amandapanacea.krtra.com/t/4yQ7W1qjLT9cBuy my 365 day Somatic Manifestation Journal: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CQNSKXWD #AdrenalFatigue #anxietyrelief #bioenergetics #neuroscience #brainretraining #somatichealing #ChronicStress #hrv #functionalfreeze #AdrenalSupport #fightflightfreeze #nervoussytemregulation #nervoussystem #bloodsugar #anxiety #burnout #functionalmedicine #htma #bioenergetictesting #mcas #eczema #lyme #moldillness #gutbrainconnection #lymedisease #mastcellactivationsyndrome #tsw #topicalsteroidwithdrawal #guthealth #mineralbalancing #circadianrhythms #mastcellactivation #frequencyhealing #allergyrelief #weightloss #peptides #stressrelief #traumahealing #peptidesforweightloss #Bioenergetictesting

Shop Frequense Rise + Source Join The Conception Connection The Conception Connection You've probably heard it before: "It's stress." But what does that actually mean—and what are you supposed to do about it? In this episode, I'm breaking down how stress impacts your fertility both physically and emotionally, and why it's not just about taking a bubble bath or “thinking positive.” We'll talk about the real ways stress shows up in your body (like hormone imbalances, blood sugar issues, and short cycles), how it affects your mindset (hello, perfectionism and people-pleasing), and—most importantly—what you can do to support your nervous system and bring your body back into balance. Whether you're dealing with unexplained infertility or just feel like something's off, this episode will help you understand the stress-fertility connection from a faith-based, root-cause perspective.
Have you tried everything for your acne — from skincare routines and elimination diets to hormone protocols — and your skin still breaks out without rhyme or reason? There may be a hidden root cause you haven't uncovered yet: a mineral imbalance between copper and zinc. In this episode, I'm walking you through how your copper:zinc ratio could be the missing piece behind your persistent acne, skin inflammation, and even hormonal imbalances. You'll learn: What the copper:zinc ratio actually is and why it matters for skin health How copper overload or zinc deficiency can silently drive breakouts Signs of an imbalanced copper:zinc ratio (beyond acne!) How this mineral imbalance affects your gut, hormones, and detox pathways A mini action plan to start balancing your minerals for clear, glowing skin Whether you've heard of HTMA (Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis) or this is brand new to you — this episode will give you a clear next step toward healing acne from the inside out, by supporting your unique biology.

Free Acne Root Cause Quiz: Discover what your skin is trying to tell you and where to start on your healing journey.
This week, in Part 5 of the Minerals Decoded series, we're focusing on another mineral ratio that's essential for those who feel drained, struggle with persistent fatigue, digestive issues, or mysterious allergies, and have not found answers from standard medical tests. If this sounds like you, this might be your sign to get an HTMA test and look into your sodium-to-magnesium ratio, aka the adrenal ratio. This ratio acts like a speedometer for your adrenal glands and provides key insights into your stress response and metabolic health. I start with a story about a client who was severely fatigued and experiencing multiple health issues. Through an HTMA test, we discovered that her sodium-to-magnesium ratio was extremely low, indicating sluggish adrenal activity. With targeted interventions such as adding sea salt to her diet and managing stress, she began to feel revitalized, improving her energy levels, digestion, and overall health.I also give a detailed breakdown of how both high and low sodium-to-magnesium ratios affect your body, and the difference between fast and slow oxidizers of these minerals. Understanding these imbalances can be empowering and guide you on how to better manage your health. This episode will give you some practical tips for balancing your sodium-to-magnesium ratio, including using sea salt to support sodium levels, incorporating adrenal glandulars, and finding ways to manage stress effectively. If your sodium-to-magnesium ratio is imbalanced, these tips could be game-changing for your energy levels and overall well-being.

In today's episode, I'm breaking down what HTMA (Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis) is and how it can finally give you real answers when you're facing unexplained infertility. We'll talk about how mineral imbalances impact your hormones, ovulation, and overall fertility — and why bloodwork doesn't always tell the full story. Whether you're just starting your TTC journey or you've been trying for a while with no clear direction, this episode will help you understand what your body might be trying to tell you — and how to begin supporting it.
Send us a textIt's the end of June, and I'm wrapping up our listener-powered Q&A series with a jam-packed solo episode. I tackle three big questions from Sarah, Jeanine and Wendy that span swollen fingers after COVID, mast-cell mayhem, bumps around the eyes, fertility prep, and even rheumatoid arthritis. Thanks for being here! KEY TAKEAWAYS:Swollen Fingers Post-COVID: Often linked to cellular stress, mineral imbalances (esp. low potassium), and mast cell activation. Support adrenals and mineral status first.Mast Cell & Eczema: Consider nervous system inputs (EMDR, breathwork, stress history), liver drainage, and gentle anti-inflammatory support like Holy Basil.Fertility Prep: Focus on mitochondrial support, nutrient repletion, progesterone monitoring, and nervous system regulation at least 3 months preconception.Skin Bumps Around Eyes: Often tied to liver sluggishness and drainage issues. Use face mapping as a tool; consider low-level toxin load and mineral depletion.RA vs. OA: RA = immune dysfunction; assess food reactivity (e.g., nightshades), gut health, and family toxin exposure. OA = structural; consider regenerative injections (e.g., prolozone).Family Symptom Clusters: Think environmental—evaluate for mold, radon, or metals (e.g., uranium on HTMA). Toxic burden may explain “mystery” symptoms.Rate • Review • Reach OutLove these quick-fire case breakdowns?

This week, we're diving into part four of the Minerals Decoded series, and we're focusing on a crucial topic: the calcium-to-magnesium ratio, often referred to as the blood sugar or carbohydrate ratio. This specific mineral imbalance is key to addressing issues like unexplained muscle aches, sugar cravings, energy crashes, and sleep disturbances. I share the story of one of my clients who struggled with these symptoms and found relief through understanding her HTMA results and adjusting her calcium-to-magnesium ratio. We explore the intricate relationship between calcium and magnesium, how an imbalance in these minerals can affect insulin production and blood sugar regulation, and the symptoms you might experience if you have this mineral imbalance. As always, I offer some practical steps to manage this through diet, stress management, and magnesium supplementation. Tune in to gain a deeper understanding of how maintaining the right calcium-to-magnesium ratio is essential for your blood sugar stability and overall well-being.

On today's episode of The Wholesome Fertility Podcast, I am joined by Hannah Davis (@rooted.with.hannah), a Registered Dietitian and certified meditation teacher who specialises in women's health, hormones, and autoimmune conditions. After being diagnosed with Hashimoto's while navigating early motherhood, Hannah shifted her clinical nutrition practice to focus on uncovering the deeper root causes of symptoms like fatigue, cycle irregularities, and PCOS. We dive into how nervous system dysregulation often underlies hormonal imbalances and why functional testing, mineral status, and emotional safety are crucial for true healing. From decoding PCOS types to understanding thyroid antibodies and the connection between trauma and calcium retention, Hannah offers a deeply integrative and compassionate lens for supporting women on their fertility and healing journeys. This conversation is packed with practical tools and fresh insights—don't miss it! Key Takeaways: PCOS is not just about ovarian cysts—it's a metabolic and inflammatory condition with many root causes. Nervous system regulation is foundational for hormone balance, digestion, and fertility. Functional lab testing (like Dutch and HTMA) reveals hidden patterns traditional labs may miss. Excess calcium in tissues may indicate trauma or over-supplementation with Vitamin D. Diet, stress, sleep, and gut health all influence autoimmune and hormonal symptoms. Guest Bio: Hannah Davis, RD (@rooted.with.hannah) is a Registered Dietitian and certified meditation teacher with advanced training in functional nutrition, lab testing, and spiritual psychology. She specialises in supporting women with hormonal imbalances, autoimmune conditions like Hashimoto's, and chronic fatigue through an integrative approach that blends clinical science with deep nourishment and nervous system healing. After navigating her own health challenges postpartum, Hannah now helps women reclaim their energy, resilience, and sense of safety through 1:1 coaching and group programs at Pivot Nutrition Coaching. She's especially passionate about working with mothers, self-healers, and cycle-breakers who are ready to feel like themselves again.

I'm Michelle, a fertility acupuncturist here to provide you with resources on how to create a wholesome approach to your fertility journey. **Michelle:** Welcome to the podcast, Hannah. **Hannah:** thanks for having me. **Michelle:** So I'm very excited to have you on. We're gonna be talking about a lot of really cool topics, but before we get started, I always like to start out with kind of like an origin story and learn how you got into the work that you're doing. **Hannah:** Yeah. I am a registered dietician. I've been mainly practicing medical nutrition therapy for the last 10 years in a more clinical setting. And you know, and then [00:02:00] I became a mom. I have two. One's almost eight, you gotta say almost eight. And the other one's, and the other one's nine. So they're really, they're really young and I, you know, working at the hospital part-time and I started noticing. **Hannah:** My own symptoms of, of things that just felt like off. And simultaneously I was also becoming more interested in learning about more integrative functional nutrition. And so that really led me down. It, it started off as, oh. A way for me to kind of figure out what was going on with me, because of course, like so many of my, the clients I work with now you know, you go to the doctors, you ask for some labs to be done and they just say, oh, you're absolutely fine. **Hannah:** You might just be stressed. You're stressed out, you're a young mom. Of course it's normal to feel exhausted all of the time and stuff like that. So, I just was like really interested [00:03:00] in doing more digging and so I, we got some training in advanced lab testing and more like integrative functional nutrition. **Hannah:** And so. From there I was able to figure out what's going on with me, and I, I actually have an autoimmune condition. It's called Hashimotos. And so that really affects, you know, your, your energy levels, your, your gut health, your immune system obviously is involved. So I, it was so incredibly validating and it really excited me. **Hannah:** I was like, I feel. If I can figure out a way to use advanced lab testing and combine that with my. More of my more clinical, you know, expertise and combine that together to really like, help women feel empowered about how to support their health and, and how they feel and their showing up in their lives every [00:04:00] day. **Hannah:** And so it just really, really excited me. So that's kind of what got me started with that. And then I, I pivoted towards, towards that about three years ago started my own virtual practice working more in like the women's health space. So like hormones, gut health, autoimmune conditions. **Hannah:** And then I, as I was doing more of that work, I was like, okay, there's. I'm seeing a common theme here. These women at their root, cause a lot of the time is nervous system dysregulation. And I got really. Tired of just saying over and over again. You know, you need to manage your stress a little bit better. **Hannah:** I wanted to be able to give them so much more than that. And obviously I knew that from my own journey. I really had to integrate that. And so, but I wanted to like, figure out how to help my, my clients integrate that. So then I became a certified meditation [00:05:00] teacher. And spent a year studying spiritual psychology, which is like a blend of Eastern ritual and practices with western psychology. **Hannah:** That, yeah. Yeah, yeah. So now I really like to supplement my, programs with giving my clients tools on how to regulate their nervous systems as well. And so, we'll, you know, you know, it's more of like life coaching almost. And then maybe we'll integrate some, some things like, meditation or breath work together. **Hannah:** It really just depends on what the, how the client wants to be supported. So **Michelle:** Awesome. **Hannah:** Yeah. **Michelle:** You know it's interesting 'cause I **Hannah:** Yeah. **Michelle:** an episode on. Nervous system. Really the vagal tone and **Hannah:** Yes. **Michelle:** there's a link with a weaker vagal tone and things like endometriosis or **Michelle:** PCOS, and I thought that was just fascinating. [00:06:00] **Michelle:** So, yeah, I'd love to really kind of dig deep on all of these things. So just for people listening and they're kind of like hearing nervous system for the first time. 'cause well maybe they've listened to my podcast, maybe not when I talked about the nervous system. But what should people, like, explain the nervous system, explain how the nervous system ties into certain conditions. **Hannah:** I mean, that's a very, like, that's pretty broad because it's like, you know, it really depends on what. **Michelle:** the nervous system like tie into certain conditions? **Hannah:** I don't know what condition it doesn't, honestly. Uh, the more, the more I get like deep in the weeds with this, so, you know, a lot of my clients we, you know, so I am typically working with people with autoimmune conditions and hormone. I balances gut health, that kind of stuff. And I, you know, I would say the nervous system impacts all of those areas [00:07:00] because ideally, especially when we're talking about women's health and like hormones, things like that we really just want to create safety in the body, right? **Hannah:** So that we can. Manufacture hormones and ovulate naturally and things like that. So, and then, you know, inflammation's another, another piece of that. It really just, it's a great way to, like, it just connects to everything right. **Michelle:** Yeah, well the vagus nerve is incredibly important when it comes to gut health. the stronger the vagal tone, the better the vagus nerve, the better. It's able to lower inflammation in the body. **Hannah:** Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. **Michelle:** fascinating and interesting. And so what are some of the things that you do suggest for people. they wanna regulate their nervous system and support that aspect. **Hannah:** So First of all, I think it's important to just figure out what are the systems for that client? What are [00:08:00] the systems that are working for them and what's not? And really get really honest about that. And then, you know, it could be something like starting a. **Hannah:** Very doable meditation practice or some breath work like before, before meals, right? Getting into rest and digest me activating that vagus nerve so that we can digest our food properly. So it really just depends on what is feels a lot most aligned for the client and, and is doable for them. But also I think another big piece of this, which is not really talked about often is eating for blood sugar balance. **Hannah:** Because even like blood sugar swings throughout the day can cause fluctuations in your mood and your anxiety and cravings and all, all of, and even inflammation as well. So **Michelle:** that **Hannah:** like a whole body [00:09:00] approach. Mm-hmm. **Michelle:** It's such a good point. And I remember like looking into this and researching like just really the gut brain connection and. And it's interesting 'cause you can see it really go both ways. So if you have imbalanced gut microbiome that can ima impact your brain and your mood and your state and your emotions. **Michelle:** And it actually is linked with certain emotional um, imbalances or like mental disorders. It's really fascinating. And then they found. On the flip side that people who meditated for many years, like Tibetan monks, they had a really vast microbiome that was a lot more enriched and had a lot more diversity. **Michelle:** So it's really fascinating how you really can literally get it at both ends or either end. **Hannah:** yeah. Like I tell my clients all the time, if you're breathing into your shoulders, the majority of the time it's gonna signal, [00:10:00] or that's gonna signal to the brain that you're in fight or flight. So it's gonna send all the blood to your extremities. It's not gonna be sending the blood to, you know, your, your GI track and your, you know, your organs there. **Hannah:** And so. it's gonna be a lot harder to digest your foods, whereas if you are really taking these deep breaths into your belly, it's sending all the blood there. And that's, that's a, and I mean, I often get skipped, you know, people are just like, no, just gimme a, just gimme a meal plan. I wanna feel better. **Hannah:** I wanna lose weight, or I wanna, you know, but it's like, you really gotta think about not just what you're eating, but how you're eating, like what your nervous system state is. You know, when you're, when you're eating food. **Michelle:** That's so true. It's **Hannah:** Mm-hmm. **Michelle:** true. And it was funny 'cause I was reading about that and it was one of the things to do is just stand. This is why they say like, don't drive and eat at the same time. Because when you're driving naturally, you're gonna be in a little bit more of a fight or flight or kind of ready for anything and. Also just to kind of throw it out [00:11:00] there, it's not bad to be in that state, in that sympathetic state. It's part of life. It's just that sometimes you need that and then sometimes you need the other. But what you're saying is so true, like it's actually like becoming mindful of getting yourself into that state and maybe **Michelle:** doing those exercises to get yourself in more parasympathetic state, which is more of **Michelle:** the rest and digest, so that you're priming your body when you do eat. To digest better. So I think **Hannah:** Yeah. Of course, and, you know, if you're digesting better, you're absorbing nutrients better, which is gonna impact your energy levels, your mood, your hormones, everything. So yeah, there really, I feel like the more I get into it, the, more I see that there really isn't an aspect of our health, our med, our metabolic health, everything that is not touched by, your nervous system. **Michelle:** Yeah, it's really fascinating. I like, the more I dig into this, the more I'm just like so [00:12:00] amazed at how Willy, you know, it's the nervous system is kind of like this wiring of like. Information. **Michelle:** It's almost like information that kind of signals to your body, all kinds of different states, but especially that safety. **Michelle:** I agree with you. You know, when you, when you feel safe, you can be more creative. And what does that mean really in the body fertility and it also regeneration growth. **Michelle:** So yeah, it's pretty cool, **Hannah:** Yeah. And I mean, hormones, that's how hormones work too. They're just chemical messengers in your body. **Michelle:** right? and so talk about PCOS, 'cause I know that you work with P-C-O-S-A lot just to cover. 'cause I think of people don't really understand it fully because it is you know, there's so many different types of PCOS and people get confused and sometimes people show PCOS symptoms, but then some doctors, and we don't know if they're just not like looking. Thoroughly into it. Dismiss it. Oh, that's not PCOS. So **Hannah:** Right. **Michelle:** that and just kind of, **Hannah:** Yeah. **Michelle:** [00:13:00] it is, **Hannah:** Okay, well, we'll just start what, like, so what is PCOS? So PCOS stands for polycystic ovarian syndrome. So a lot of people get confused by that right off the bat. They think, oh, so that mean I have cysts on my ovaries. Does that mean that I have it? So it's actually not a physical ovarian condition, like of the presence of cyst, but it's rather a hormonal condition and it's a, what I like to call a spectrum condition. **Hannah:** You know, 'cause there's different varieties and there's different root causes. It's important to understand, first of all what kind of PCOS you have and what the root causes are which is why we, we use functional lab testing in practice. But but yeah, I think a lot of women often it's like a long confusing road full of mixed messages of like just lose weight advice, **Michelle:** Yeah, **Hannah:** [00:14:00] you know. **Michelle:** really thin. PCOS patients, so that's where it can get so confusing for **Hannah:** Right, right, right. And so, A-P-C-O-S isn't in an ovarian condition, you know, what exactly is going on? I mean, in a nutshell, it's basically, blood sugar issues plus inflammation, plus genetic susceptibility, which is going to lead to the ovaries to begin to produce large amounts of androgens. **Hannah:** So, you know, and I say genetic susceptibility because, you know, just because you have like insulin sensi or insulin resistance or diabetes, that doesn't mean you automatically are gonna get PCOS. Some people just have really sensitive ovaries right. And so they're, they're going to develop the, the condition, so I like to talk to my clients about well first of all, we start by running some tests [00:15:00] to find out, you know, what what their root causes are. And then we're gonna really go deep with, you know, working on the blood sugar issues with the inflammation, real food strategies lifestyle interventions, things like that. **Michelle:** One of the things that I find is pretty common just in my own practice, is that. **Michelle:** there's a huge link of gut imbalance **Michelle:** or, you know, gut microbiome **Michelle:** imbalance and inflammation, you know, that is part of the contributor to the inflammation and can really impact PCOS conditions. **Hannah:** Yeah. Because you know, if we, if that inflammation in the gut is going unchecked you know, that's also gonna drive that insulin resistance even more. **Michelle:** Yeah. **Michelle:** what are some of the tests that you do for PCOS? Functional **Hannah:** Well, yeah. Well, first of all, I, I like to start with a Dutch test. It's a, have you heard of [00:16:00] Dutch? The Uhhuh? Yeah. Oh, you do? Okay. Yeah. So I would run a Dutch you know, so that we, **Michelle:** out just for people **Hannah:** yeah. Yes, **Michelle:** I've never heard of it before. So it's dried urine testing for comprehensive, or I forget **Hannah:** it's a Dr. It's a. Yeah, yeah. Dried urine test for comprehensive hormones. I know I used to think, oh, it's of Dutch, like it's from the Dutch, like, you know, but it's just an abbreviation. **Michelle:** right, right. **Hannah:** But yes, it's a very unique way to look at hormones. 'cause traditionally before this test was available, you would have to rely on blood work for hormones. **Hannah:** And, you know, saliva for cortisol, which is okay, but it's just not great. So this test really helps us get a lot more specific, a lot more personalized, and helps us get some answers that would probably. Be left unanswered if we were just, you know, looking at, at blood work alone. So, you know, it's gonna tell us, you know, give us a snapshot [00:17:00] of all three sex hormones, estrogen, progesterone, testosterone. **Hannah:** It's gonna show us how they're being metabolized in the liver. And then what I really like is it looks at your cortisol awakening response. So someone is struggling with sleep, mood, energy levels. Things like that that could also be driving your symptoms and, and your inflammation as well. So I, mm-hmm. **Michelle:** cortisol is your friend in the morning. **Hannah:** Yes. Yeah. Yeah. And then I like that it also has that organic acid test at the end there, which some of those other markers are gonna be important for looking at, for hormone production. So it's nice if they include that. So I, I like to do a Dutch, I also like to do HTMA testing, which stands for hair tissue mineral analysis. **Hannah:** Because, you know, you know, when we're looking at hormones it's, you know, we, we also wanna be, look thinking about minerals too because and not just like, our minerals through blood [00:18:00] work, but more on a cellular level. Like what is the body doing with those minerals? And how is your body utilizing them? **Hannah:** Are they even getting up into the cell? So, and we can, you know, you know, minerals, they impact hormones, which means they're gonna impact PCOS. So I like that one too. And it's like a little, it's a, it's a nice way to, I like it 'cause it's, it shows your body's like, it's like a blueprint. It shows you your stress pattern. **Hannah:** know how your body is using minerals after you've maybe gone through a season of. Really high stress and you know, the fertility journey too is so stressful on its own that I'm like, yeah, let's look at what your body does with all this stress and how we can really like, you know, deeply nourish your body and, you know, make it feel safe for ovulation. **Michelle:** Yeah, I know that there's a lot of minerals that you can't really test in blood and for example, magnesium. That's a **Hannah:** Mm-hmm. **Michelle:** one to test for. So does this test for magnesium as well, like all [00:19:00] minerals or, **Hannah:** yeah, yeah. It looks at all of the minerals. Specifically the ones that I'm gonna be focusing on. The minerals that impact PCS would be magnesium, zinc, calcium, iron selenium iodine. So, you know, and in a nutshell, you know, these, these minerals. they can exacerbate insulin resistance, hormonal imbalances, oxidative stress, which is important for like egg quality, sperm quality, things like that. **Hannah:** So women, get your men to your partner. **Michelle:** Yes. **Michelle:** So, so this is a hair test. **Hannah:** yeah, it's a hair. They're using just like a teaspoon amount of your hair to analyze the mineral content in your tissues. **Michelle:** Fascinating. I know they've done those for like heavy metals and, and just testing the **Hannah:** Yeah, yeah, **Michelle:** I haven't heard of the mineral testing yet. **Hannah:** yeah. And this, yeah. And this test does include heavy metals and we look at, mm-hmm. **Michelle:** heavy metals. Oh, [00:20:00] okay. **Hannah:** Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. **Michelle:** it's really high. Just like for people that don't have symptoms sometimes I almost feel like it's like high for everybody. **Hannah:** The heavy metals. Yeah. Yeah. You know, and **Michelle:** somebody who's not, who doesn't have like, **Hannah:** yeah, and I mean, we we're exposed to heavy metals all of the time. It's, you know, it's, there's, it's kind of impossible to get around it, you know? It's in our food, our water, the soil, you know. And so my approach is, you know, we might see like an acute. **Hannah:** Exposure to the heavy metals. But what we wanna see is that you, you're able to detox and excrete those heavy metals safely. You know, that's why, you know, we have our detox organs, our liver, right? And so if I ever see those metals like pushing into the tissues, it's just a really good indication that, hey, your liver needs some. **Hannah:** Some attention, like we need to work on supporting that. And also working on not just our [00:21:00] detoxification organs, but our drainage pathways. So like our lymphatic system you know, making sure we're having daily bowel movements that we're sweating all of that. All of that stuff. Yeah. **Michelle:** Yeah. **Michelle:** for sure. I think that that's key is really detoxifying, and I think that it, you had a good point. You mentioned the word safely because **Michelle:** that can be an issue, like if you detoxify too harshly. I'm really big on that, especially when you're trying to conceive and you're actively trying, you definitely don't wanna do something that's so strong that it actually circulates more toxins in your bloodstream. **Hannah:** That's right. Yeah. **Michelle:** So they have like binders, right? Or things **Hannah:** Yeah, That is one approach for me. I rarely will do like a heavy metal detox with somebody. I will just wanna work with them on, you know, first the foundational things of, are we optimizing the gut health, the, you know, the liver function are we getting those drainage pathways [00:22:00] open? **Hannah:** Because your body should be able to do all that on its own if it's, you know, optimal. but I mean, if someone's already doing like a gut protocol or something with me, then yeah, they, they'll be taking like those types of supplements and then it'll, it'll still act on the heavy metals and things like that, as. **Michelle:** Interesting. So, what are some of the nutrient and lifestyle interventions specifically that you would do for PCOS? Or have you seen, because I, I do know that **Hannah:** yeah. **Michelle:** different types, so that could **Hannah:** Yes. **Michelle:** the type, **Hannah:** Yes. Yeah. **Michelle:** the things that people should kind of like look out for, think about? **Hannah:** Yeah. Yeah. So the first step is, is gonna be improving the quality of your food choices. So, you know, removing inflammatory oils, added sugars a lot of like processed, like ultra processed carbohydrates and, you know, with chemical and artificial additives. Things like that, you wanna replace them with whole real foods. **Hannah:** It's really that simple. **Michelle:** Yeah. I [00:23:00] know, **Hannah:** Yeah. Yeah. And then also, you know, the goal is to eat a sufficient amount of carbohydrates to promote ovulation, but while still focusing on those whole real. Food sources, like starchy veggies fruits and then unprocessed whole grains and legumes. **Michelle:** So really from natural sources, **Michelle:** complex car carbs. So it's not like simple carbs, not white, you know, avoid those like. **Hannah:** Yeah. Right. So you, and you would want to make sure you're getting adequate amount of carbohydrates, but you know, if we're also dealing with insulin resistance, then we also need to be talking about you know, maintaining adequate calorie intake and just aiming for. Balance across all the macronutrients. **Hannah:** So, you know, we're pairing those carbohydrates with good quality sources of protein and healthy fats. And, if you're eating a more whole food carbs diet like. Your carbs are coming [00:24:00] from fruits like, and like root vegetables and things like that, then those foods are naturally gonna have more fiber in them, which is also gonna help with things like insulin resistance. **Hannah:** And then I would also be focusing on gut nourishing foods, like, bone broth probiotics from fermented foods, cultured. Products. And then lots of prebiotic fibers. So it also just making sure you're eating a wide range of, plant fibers. Like we're not just eating the same, spinach every day. **Hannah:** You know, let's really mix that up. Maybe like arugula, kale, you know. So that would be the where, where I would start with foods strategies. And then for lifestyle I would be really focusing on exercise. This is a really crucial tool in repairing insulin sensitivity and managing blood sugar levels. **Hannah:** So first I would just focus on increasing your daily movement. So, you know, maybe try tracking your steps. And then maybe you would wanna consider adding in some resistance [00:25:00] training and some short hit style workouts. Since those really show the most metabolic improvements. In general I would avoid, I would avoid like, really long duration cardio on a regular baseball basis, since that's like very stressful on the body. **Hannah:** So exercise is number one. Stress management is key. I know we've already kind of touched on that a little bit. You know, that's a big piece of hormonal. Balance balance since the, your adrenal health, you know, has the ability to impact the function of your sex hormones. I would just evaluate the sources of your stress. **Hannah:** You know, I like to think of it like a bucket, like a stress bucket, and we have all these different inputs pouring in. Some of those things we can't really remove, but some things we can, you can control your nutrition and your sleep quality. You know, you can maybe work on energetic boundaries, right? **Hannah:** Maybe you wanna include things like meditation or [00:26:00] journaling, acupuncture, right? Those are all really nice ways to support yourself. And then sleep. Sleep is also like so major. That's when you know when you're, you can get good quality sleep at night. That's when your, your body's repairing tissue. **Hannah:** And it, it has a lot to do with your hormones, like in like your like your hunger hormones, those ones and then also like cortisol, melatonin, things like that. Everything that just keeps all of the systems working together smoothly. So, yep. Do you. **Michelle:** of sleep. There's a, there like a lot of times we'll increase sugar cravings 'cause you want that quick energy. So **Hannah:** Yes, **Michelle:** that's one example of how that can impact **Hannah:** exactly. Yeah. Yeah. If you have like one poor night of sleep, it increases your hunger hormone levels pretty significantly. So we'll see that that issue popping up time and time again. Yeah, so.[00:27:00] **Michelle:** yeah. And I also have heard, in some **Michelle:** of like go, literally pivot into autoimmune and how you can address that in the case of Hashimoto's? **Michelle:** 'cause it is so prevalent and a lot of people have it. The first thing that I say is, cut out gluten, corn, and dairy and soy if you can. Now, I always say if you can't do all of them, at least cut out the gluten entirely and talk to us about like what you've done and what you've found to be helpful. **Michelle:** 'cause it is something that if you catch early, you really can sh shift a lot just from diet alone. **Hannah:** Oh, yes. Yeah, and I've helped. Hundreds of women with that. Exactly. Just you know, we [00:28:00] see, I've seen different stages of, Hashimoto's. You know, so if it's like, you know, stage one where we're seeing the presence of antibodies and maybe they have symptoms, maybe they don't. A lot of those women typically will present with like subclinical hypothyroidism. **Hannah:** So like their thyroid labs look fine. But they're like, I, feel tired all the time. I'm constipated. I can't lose weight, you know? So the first thing I would start with is kinda getting ahead of things with, 'cause the majority of your immune system is in your gut. So I would be doing a GI would run a stool sample, a GI map and see what's going on there. **Hannah:** Because there's different things that could be driving. That immune response. Yeah. It could be coming from things in the diet like gluten. And that test certainly will show us if you're having an immune response to gluten. So in those cases, I would have those clients cut, cut that out. And some people they, they don't, they don't run the test and they [00:29:00] cut out gluten, but they just feel better without it. **Michelle:** See that a lot. **Hannah:** mm-hmm. I do too. Just kind of anecdotally. I was just gonna say that I think it is because of like, what, what they're spraying on our crops. **Michelle:** Yeah, **Hannah:** Yep. know that it can impact hormones like big time, that's **Hannah:** Mm-hmm. **Michelle:** one for sure. **Hannah:** Yeah. So, and then, you know, obviously if there's a inflammation or like leaky gut. **Hannah:** You know, we're gonna wanna address that anyway because that could be driving that immune response and making your symptoms worse, making the antibodies levels worse, right? So I really wanna just get ahead of it with the gut number one. **Hannah:** And then I like to do mineral testing as well, since so many minerals, not only impact PCOS, but they impact your thyroid. **Michelle:** That's a huge **Hannah:** Yes, selenium. This is a common thing that I see. I'll see really high amounts of calcium in the [00:30:00] tissues. And that's gonna block your thyroid hormone from getting up into the cell. **Hannah:** So like maybe their thyroid panel looks great, but that, or they're already taking a thyroid medication, but they're, they feel like it's not doing anything for them. I'm like, look, you have a lot of calcium in your tissues. And so like, that's your thyroid hormone's not even getting up into the cell. So of course you wouldn't feel an impact there. **Hannah:** And that also is. **Michelle:** actually? What causes that? Calcification? **Hannah:** So, I typically see that from over supplementing with vitamin D. So, that will pull the calcium out of the bone and teeth. And put it into the tissues. Yeah. A lot of people get put on vitamin D by their doctor, like maybe they had low levels at one point, and then their doctor never talked to them about weaning off of the vitamin D. **Hannah:** They just kept taking it. **Michelle:** too high. Yeah. **Hannah:** Yeah. Or they'll start them off like a really high dose, like I've seen like 50,000 units of, of vitamin. Yeah. [00:31:00] And they, and they just keep taking it like, then they're never told like, Hey, you're actually supposed to tapered off of that after a couple months. I've also seen an influx of people on vitamin D, zinc you know, ever since the pandemic. **Hannah:** So they just kept taking it and they don't know how that's impacted their. Mine. So, so yeah, that's one culprit. I, I'll see. The other thing that I notice, and this is pretty prevalent in the autoimmune community is, and I don't think it's talked about a lot, is significant trauma and certain types of trauma. **Hannah:** It, it's like we call when we see this pattern on an htm. It, we call it a calcium shell where the calcium and the magnesium levels are really high in the tissues. And then we are like really depleted in things like potassium and sodium and other secondary minerals. And it's kind of like the body's way of shielding itself from feeling [00:32:00] big, like feeling really big emotions. **Hannah:** So like a lot of these clients, I, I'll talk to them about this and they have such a flat effect, like with the then we start moving the calcium out of the tissues and then they become, they're, it's like they really need more emotional support throughout that process. It's very interesting. I'm about to actually do an HTMA on myself. **Hannah:** It's been a couple of years, but I've just gone, I'm grieving my mom right now and I, yeah, and it's just been a really rough couple of months. I've just been just going through the motions and kind of in that, like taking care of her, taking care of my girls. Like just everything that we've gone through leading up to this point. **Hannah:** And I'm like, I am so curious to know what's going on with my minerals right now. I would not be surprised if I was having calcium going into my tissues. 'cause I believe that's what was my pattern last [00:33:00] time I ran the test a few years ago. So. **Michelle:** Oh, that's interesting. **Hannah:** It's like, yeah, this is my, my unique pattern, you know, so I see that a lot with Hashimoto's and yeah, and, and it's interesting because that pattern, like the high calcium in the tissues and the low potassium, that's really really common with like thyroid stuff in general because, you know, first of all, that calcium's blocking the thyroid. **Hannah:** Hormone from getting up into the cell. It's also gonna be blocking insulin signaling. So there is gonna be a lot of blood sugar swings, and that's gonna be driving the inflammation, making that worse. And then the low potassium, well, you know, potassium is needed for thyroid function as well. So, I see that pattern a lot with that population and it's so fascinating. **Hannah:** And I would just say like, I wouldn't say it's like. It's more like anecdotal, right? Like and you probably see that too in your practice. Yeah. Yeah. **Michelle:** For different things, not this [00:34:00] specifically, but Yeah. **Michelle:** I mean, you see a lot of that and that's, that matters just because studies are very expensive to have and you can't **Hannah:** Mm-hmm. **Michelle:** rely just on studies. You have to really rely on data in general, like your own experience **Hannah:** Oh, absolutely. **Michelle:** there's so much information that you can get just from that. And then, couple of things. One of the things is, I know that Zyme has been shown to really help, it's an enzyme, it's a pro oleic enzymes that break apart, like fibrous tissue. So I'm curious to **Hannah:** Oh **Michelle:** if it would help with excess calcium or, you know, deposits because it, it works to break down **Hannah:** yeah, **Michelle:** really needed in the body. **Hannah:** yeah. Yeah. **Michelle:** up. **Hannah:** Yeah. That is interesting. Yeah, because when we see, usually the calcium in the tissues is also associated with things like restless leg syndrome, kidney stones, gallstones, all that stuff, you know, because it's just calcification of the tissues. [00:35:00] Right. What I do is I'll get, if that person is, has actually been on vitamin D what I'll do is I'll say, okay, let's just pause on the vitamin D and then I'll get them on, a form of vitamin K two that will target that calcium in the tissues and, and bring it, redirect it back to the bones. So we'll do that for several months. And if that person's still concerned about their, their vitamin D levels and say, let's just get that checked, you know, and depending on where you're at with that, you, you either, you know, probably need supplementation time from time to time, or maybe just during the winter, right? **Hannah:** But it's not a long term. You know, supplement for you because of this pattern, this pattern that you typically have. **Michelle:** Another thing that I was gonna mention is, we were talking about like, antibodies. **Michelle:** I remember, One of my patients mentioning she had like a, 'cause I was talking to an REI and I was gonna have him, I had him on the podcast and so she had some questions and she had a very low amount of [00:36:00] antibodies that are considered normal. And he said no, because the presence of any antibody, and that's what's crazy to me. **Hannah:** Mm-hmm. **Michelle:** normal in labs **Hannah:** Yeah. Well, yeah. Yeah. The reference ranges for conventional labs or like in more like conventional healthcare settings. They're not, they're designed to show like if you have a chronic disease or not. Not necessarily if you're optimal. Right. Like thriving, you know? **Michelle:** have any, even if it's like minute, it means that there's an autoimmune, like **Hannah:** Right. And. **Michelle:** your thyroid. **Hannah:** Yeah, and I mean, my first thought is like, and just because I've worked in that arena for so long, is I think it's just because they need to have a diagnose, a diagnosis for a chronic disease, number one, so that they can build insurance and blah, blah, blah. **Michelle:** Yeah, yeah, yeah. **Hannah:** So they typically can't treat you. They can't, they [00:37:00] technically can't treat you. **Hannah:** Like they don't really run on a, it's more of like a sick care model. It's not really, they can't really treat you for like prevention. Right. That's not like that that's not how insurance companies work. So, I think that that's, that's my theory on that. But, you know, but to, to answer your question, yes, I, I see, low levels that aren't considered Hashimoto's, **Michelle:** Right? **Hannah:** but I would label that early stages or stage one, and I would say, let's work, let's, let's order GI Map. **Hannah:** Let's look at what your minerals are doing like that impact your thyroid. Let's just, just start helping you feel better right away so that we can go into remission. I would much rather my client like, just go ahead and work on those things instead of waiting until it's like, you know, now we're seeing tissue damage, you know, and there's a lot of practices. **Hannah:** I don't, **Michelle:** it if it's early enough, like, but if it's **Hannah:** yeah. **Michelle:** really like far gone, **Hannah:** Yeah. It can, and I don't know if you've run [00:38:00] across this a lot in your practice or with your clients, but I've been told a lot of times that they weren't even able to request or see a specialist or an endocrinologist, I guess, until they were able to see tissue damage. And it's like, wouldn't you wanna just prevent the tissue damage? **Michelle:** crazy to me. Yeah. **Hannah:** Mm-hmm. Yeah, so I'm, you know, I just like to get on it like right away, even if it's like, you know, your antibodies are like five, you know? **Michelle:** yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Really low, but still, **Hannah:** Yeah. Really low. Yeah. It's worth working on. Yeah. **Michelle:** I had actually just recently, I had a case where her TSH was like five and she's young, she's in her twenties. And I'm **Hannah:** Mm-hmm. **Michelle:** not normal. **Hannah:** Mm-hmm. **Michelle:** just a little abnormal. **Michelle:** But that's not a little abnormal for try somebody trying to conceive. **Hannah:** Yeah. **Michelle:** and under. So if you **Hannah:** Mm-hmm. **Michelle:** the thing. If you go to a general doctor or even an ob, they are a little more general in women's health. **Hannah:** Yeah. **Michelle:** they're not going [00:39:00] to look at it the same way as an REI is gonna look at it, which is a reproductive endocrinologist and they're gonna **Hannah:** Right. **Michelle:** it a completely different perspective. **Michelle:** Yeah, so it's, so those things I think a lot of people just don't realize and they're going in and they get the wrong information or they don't get like the full information and many years go by and it's kind of like, you know, that's why it's so important to really get ahead of it. **Hannah:** Yeah, absolutely. I think you're, you're worthy of feeling better, you know, if, does it have to be something that's chronic or. **Michelle:** Right. **Hannah:** Like full on disease state before just feeling better. **Michelle:** Yeah, for sure. So for people who, you know, are curious and wanna learn more about what you do, **Michelle:** um, what are some of the things that you offer online? Where can people find you? I. **Hannah:** So for people who are wanting to work one-on-one with me or maybe just start off with [00:40:00] a consultation or some have some labs done you can find me at through Pivot Nutrition Coaching. So the website is pivot nutrition coaching com. And then if, for my social media, I'm on Instagram with Hannah. **Michelle:** Awesome. I'll have all the notes anyway. If anybody like is curious or wants to know exactly how it's written out or find the link, you can find those on the episode notes. So Hannah, thank you so much for coming on today. It was a great conversation. I love really digging deep on just what goes on with these conditions that so many people hear about that are trying to conceive, but they don't really understand it. **Michelle:** And I think. There's so much power and knowledge and understanding and kind of like going beneath the surface. So I think this is one of the things that I like to do on the show is really to educate people on like really what's going on. So you've really shared some great, valuable information, so thank you so much, Hannah.[00:41:00] **Hannah:** Thank you so much for having me and I, I think that this is such an important, important conversation to have and a valuable platform, so it's really an honor to be here. And hope we can chat again soon. **Michelle:** Thank you.

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend! I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks… Tricia: Hi Dr Cabral - I recently discovered your show about a year ago and I'm so glad I did! You are a wealth of knowledge and I appreciate you helping the community. I'm a 55 year old female diagnosed with spinal stenosis, spondylolisthesis and degenerative disc disease since 2017. Basically, I'm in and out of pain a lot. I stay in physical therapy and try to stay as active as possible. I hate taking OTC pain medicines but at time Aleve is the only thing that will get me through. My question is what do you think about taking NAC supplementation to assist my liver. Any advice is appreciated. I eat a very clean whole food based diet to assist with inflammation. I haven't tried your detox yet but have a 21 day supply. I take many of your vitamins. I love them! Thank you in advance. Rachel: Dr. Cabral, NO ONE talks about women with “lean” PCOS… insulin resistance seems to be at the root & center of PCOS but I've been tested & do not have it… I'm around 20% body fat & very muscular. I was on the birth control pill for about 10 years, when I came off I didn't have cycle. It was then we found the follicles on my ovaries & I developed cystic acne. Since then I dialed back my exercise, fed more & after 22 months got my cycle back for the last consecutive 6 months. Do you have any insight or advice for someone in a scenario like mine? Will the follicles ever dissipate back to normal? I am 32 & so concerned about fertility for when I hopefully meet my person. What can I do to optimize… if I was your daughter would you recommend freezing my eggs at this stage, all things considered? Yvonne: Did a search for a previous podcast but didn't find anything about reversing swollen finger joint by right index knuckle. Assume this was the first of an arthritic flare which has subsided but and the swelling went down from what it was but it won't go away completely. Is there a way to return to its normal size or is the damage permanent? Anonymous: Hi Doctor Cabral! Question about a 7 month old baby. She's happy, eats & sleeps well, breast fed, just started some solids, no medical ‘interventions'. She struggles with congestion & her right eye has been irritated since birth. It's almost always watery & boogery. She was born a month early & mom had pretty severe preeclampsia, baby's oxygen was low at birth so she was on oxygen for her 1st 12 hours or so, but quickly recovered on her own. Wondering if there's something that can be done naturally for her breathing & eye. We're not sure what is causing it. Clogged tear duct? Mom & dad eat healthy & live as close to a toxin free life as humanly possible. 1st thoughts are the pets or possible mold, but she doesn't improve when they leave their home for 3-4 day trips. Thoughts? Thanks!! Sarah: Hello!!! Context - Im 28, I've done 7 day detox, HTMA, CBO, heavy metal detox, gut testing about to do hormone testing. I take your DNS, greens, omegas, zinc, b complex, magnesium, digestive enzymes. I dry brush, sauna, weight training, lots of walking, daily breath work etc. I feel like my stress is the lowest it's been and yet I still experience debilitating fatigue that can last for few days/weeks where even just walking is a struggle. Could this just be part of the 'healing' process as I know it's not linear. Is there anything else I should look at/do? Sometimes when I'm moving around going on with my day I'm fine but then when I sit down a full load of fatigue hits me. I also notice when I drink coffee/green tea I yawn alot. I've experienced this for a few years.

Welcome back, everyone! I'm thrilled to be kicking off a new eight-part series all about mineral decoding and balancing. In this episode, we'll explore the concept of mineral balancing and how it can be the missing link in your healing journey. We'll discuss the benefits of getting your minerals tested and why someone might want to undertake this process. The mineral balancing process helps us identify where our bodies are depleted or out of balance and provides a roadmap for restoration. Mineral balancing is a powerful tool for understanding what your body truly needs, especially if you're dealing with symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, moodiness, or digestive issues despite doing everything 'right.' I highlight the importance of the Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA) test, which provides incredible insights into your health at a cellular level and is the best test for nutrient absorption issues. We'll go over my journey with HTMA, how I discovered it through mentors, and how it transformed both my life and the lives of my clients. Throughout this episode, I'll share real client success stories and explain how balancing minerals like magnesium, calcium, and more can lead to significant health improvements. I'll also introduce what's coming up in this series, covering everything from adrenal burnout to thyroid function, detoxification, and much more. So if you're ready to discover how minerals can unlock the missing links in our healing journeys, join us as we decode your minerals and put you back in the driver's seat of your health!

In this revelatory episode, I sit down with Caroline Alan, founder of Beam Minerals, to explore why minerals—specifically humic and fulvic—may be the most overlooked cornerstone of modern health. Caroline shares her personal journey from corporate burnout and mold illness to discovering the regenerative power of nature's oldest detox tools. We discuss why 75% of Americans are walking around chronically dehydrated at the cellular level, why your multivitamin might not be working, and how minerals act as the missing link between nutrition, energy, and resilience.We also dig into the science of how these plant-derived substances bind to heavy metals and glyphosate, restore gut integrity, and deliver nutrients directly to your mitochondria. Whether you're an athlete looking for performance edge or navigating chronic fatigue, this is your crash course in ecosystem-based healing. No fluff, no hype—just the raw, unfiltered truth about what your body really needs.
