Many people assume that gut problems always show up as bloating, pain, or digestive distress — but that's far from the truth. In this episode, Tara explains why everyone who cares about their long-term health and longevity should be paying attention to their gut… even if they think their digestion is just fine. From fatigue and brain fog to anxiety, weight gain, autoimmune issues, and even fertility challenges — the gut often plays a bigger role than you might realize. Tara shares a real-life client case: a woman with zero gut symptoms whose stool test revealed significant bacterial imbalances that were quietly driving inflammation and impacting her health. You'll learn why markers like LPS (lipopolysaccharides) and butyrate are so important, how they connect to inflammation throughout the body, and why a truly comprehensive stool test is non-negotiable if you want real answers. Tara also explains why not all tests — and not all practitioners — are created equal, and how to ensure you're working with someone who understands the full complexity of the microbiome. Whether you're chasing down stubborn symptoms or simply want to stay vibrant and healthy for years to come, this episode will inspire you to make your gut a top priority. Tara explains that: Comprehensive stool testing is essential for everyone, not just those with digestive symptoms. This helps identify issues that may be quietly driving systemic inflammation. Markers like LPS (lipopolysaccharides) and butyrate on stool tests provide vital insights into the inflammatory state of your gut—and, by extension, your whole body. If your test doesn't measure these, you're missing valuable information. Imbalances (dysbiosis) can exist without gut symptoms and still drive conditions like fatigue, autoimmunity, and infertility. Understanding your unique microbiome can be truly game-changing for your health path.

And most of us don't even realize it.In this episode, I sat down with Dr. Robert Melillo, one of the top experts in childhood neurological disorders and the founder of the Brain Balance Achievement Centers. He's helped thousands of families—kids and adults—with ADHD, autism, learning disabilities, tics, anxiety, and more… and he's done it all without medication.Dr. Melillo's theory of Functional Disconnection Syndrome is changing the way we think about the brain. He breaks down how imbalances between the brain's hemispheres affect everything from coordination to behavior to gut health. And he shares how we can not only identify these imbalances early, but also correct them, at any age.This one goes deep into brain development, movement, retained reflexes, immune health, and what we seem to be getting wrong about genetics and mental health. Whether you're a parent, practitioner, or just trying to understand your own brain better, this conversation will reframe how you see yourself and others."Movement was the initiation of brains on the planet, and movement is the initiation of brain development in children." ~ Dr. Robert MelilloAbout Dr. Robert Melillo:Dr. Robert Melillo is a clinician, researcher, author, and one of the world's leading experts on neurodevelopmental disorders. With over 30 years of clinical experience, he's best known for founding Brain Balance Centers and creating the Melillo Method, a multidisciplinary approach to rebalancing the brain through movement, nutrition, cognitive stimulation, and more.

Discover the Power of Amino Acid Therapy to Reduce Anxiety and Get Healthier In today's fast-paced world, maintaining both mental and physical health is more important than ever. Whether you are a parent, a leader, or simply striving to become the best version of yourself, it's essential to find effective ways to support your well-being. One powerful yet often overlooked solution is amino acid therapy—a God-designed approach to healing that addresses your health at the root level. Understanding Amino Acid Therapy Amino acids are the building blocks of life, part of God's intentional design for our bodies to function optimally. These molecules do more than build muscle—they are the raw materials your brain uses to create neurotransmitters like serotonin, endorphins, catecholamines, and GABA. When these brain chemicals are out of balance, we can experience symptoms like anxiety, depression, low motivation, and chronic stress. The Brain-Gut Connection: A Two-Way Street While many people look to gut health as the starting point for healing, the brain cannot be overlooked. Imbalances in brain chemistry—particularly in key neurotransmitters—can lead to cravings, poor digestion, mood swings, and unstable blood sugar. Why Amino Acids Matter Here's how amino acid therapy can help: Reduce Anxiety and Depression: By restoring neurotransmitter levels, particularly serotonin and GABA, you can experience greater calm, improved sleep, and a more lifted mood. Improve Focus and Energy: Boosting catecholamines can restore motivation, mental clarity, and drive. Support Emotional Resilience: Endorphin support helps you feel emotionally grounded and less reactive to stress. Balance Blood Sugar Naturally: Maintaining stable glucose levels is essential for optimal brain health. Protein helps regulate this process, and amino acids play a central role in it. Rejuvenate Your Brain: You need protein—around 30–40 grams three times a day—to support your brain's rebuilding process. Without enough protein, your brain can't make the chemicals it needs to thrive. About Laurie Hammer Before motherhood, Laurie battled an eating disorder, anxiety, and depression, affecting her health, relationships, and overall well-being. Discovering Amino Acid Therapy changed everything, helping her reclaim her life and igniting her passion for health and wellness.

Yeah, no. In this episode, I sit down with renowned hormone expert Dr. Prudence Hall to talk about why so many women are struggling through perimenopause and menopause—and why it doesn't have to be that way.   Dr. Hall, a gynecological surgeon turned regenerative and functional medicine expert, shares the biggest myths about midlife and menopause, the truth about bioidentical hormones, and why so many women in perimenopause and menopause are failed by conventional medicine. We dive into hormonal imbalances, how they affect weight, sleep, mood, beauty, and energy, and—most importantly—how to rebalance your body so you can look and feel amazing again.   If you're tired of being told “it's just aging,” this episode will change everything.

OVERVIEW: Feel like you're doing everything right but the scale won't budge — and you're more tired, bloated, and frustrated than ever? You're not alone, and you're not doing anything wrong. In today's episode, I'm breaking down how your hormones directly impact fat loss — especially during perimenopause and midlife. We're talking estrogen, progesterone, thyroid, and cortisol… and how imbalances in these key hormones can sabotage your progress even when your nutrition and workouts are on point. I'll also share the common signs to look for if your hormones are out of balance, and what steps you can take to address them — starting with my signature coaching framework: The Three Phases of Transformation — Repair, Rebuild, and Results. TOPICS DISCUSSED: The truth about estrogen dominance and how it shows up in your body How low progesterone impacts your mood, cravings, and sleep Why cortisol and thyroid issues can keep your metabolism stuck in survival mode How to spot the signs of hormonal imbalance and what to do next Why testing — not guessing — is key to long-term, sustainable fat loss RESOURCES: Click here to schedule your FREE alignment call to see if my 1:1 coaching program is a good fit for you: https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule/7de98067/appointment/18062930/calendar/4677043?appointmentTypeIds%5B%5D=18062930 Click Here to learn more about my 1:1 coaching program https://metabolicfix.purfitstudio.com/one Take My PHASE ASSESSMENT QUIZ HERE: https://www.metabolicfix.com/phase-quiz Follow Ashley on Instagram: @ashley_fillmore1 Join Ashley's FREE Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/635528110302527Email us at: support@metabolicfix.com Want to see which one of my programs is the best for you?

GM Mauricio Flores Rios' first book, Chess Structures, is a modern classic which is seemingly recommended on a weekly basis on Perpetual Chess. After nine years of work, Mauricio has recently released its follow-up, Chess Imbalances: A GM Guide.

We discussed the following:  His opinion on the value of the bishop pair, as well as bishop vs. knight  The surprising reason that his book often featured the games of Magnus Carlsen When to switch from “objective mode” to “survival mode” in a game  We also discussed freestyle chess, and the impact of machine learning on chess. Mauricio is a statistician by trade, who recently launched a chess instruction site called ChessMind A.I., so he was particularly insightful on this topic.

Feel like your body's holding onto fat like it's saving up for a long winter? You're eating “healthy,” working out, and still—nothing budges. What gives?!In this episode, we're talking about estrogen—yep, the hormone we love to hate—and how it can quietly sabotage your fat-burning efforts when it's out of balance. Think of estrogen like Goldilocks: too much or too little, and things go sideways.We'll laugh (because if we don't, we'll cry), get real about the bloaty, frustrating truth of hormonal weight, and most importantly—empower you with the knowledge to finally stop blaming yourself and to take action, working with your body rather than against it.If you've ever thought, “Maybe I'm just broken,” this episode will remind you: You're not broken. You're just missing the full story.Supplement Guide: https://www.vitalityoet.com/menopausesupplementsTIMESTAMPS:(00:00) - Intro(01:33) - Overview of Low Estrogen & Fat Loss(02:34) - Do you have symptoms of low estrogen?(04:31) - Side effects or Low Estrogen(08:40) - How does Estrogen affect Fat Loss?(11:03) - Ways to improve Low Estrogen(23:30) - Final thoughts + remindersCONNECT WITH ME ONLINE:‣ Fill out our Complimentary Health Assessment to receive customized guidelines for:- how much you should eat

Ever feel like your body is working against you no matter how “healthy” you try to be?That's exactly where I found myself—exhausted, bloated, moody, wired yet tired, and frustrated that nothing was working. So I decided to dig deeper. I ran a DUTCH hormone test on myself… and let's just say, the results were humbling.In this raw and honest episode, I'm walking you through what my DUTCH test revealed—and why I now lovingly refer to my hormones as a bit of a “dumpster fire.”Here's what I discovered:

Show Notes: Could inflammation be the reason you're bloated, fatigued, or struggling with your cycle? Naturopathic doctor Dr. Erin Ellis joins Jen to explain the real signs of chronic inflammation, what most lab results don't tell you, and how hormone imbalances are often overlooked in conventional care. Learn how to support your health naturally—starting with awareness, better choices, and listening to your body.Key Takeaways:Inflammation is natural, but chronic inflammation is not—and it often goes undetected.Common signs include brain fog, bloating, puffiness, joint pain, and fatigue.Stress, poor sleep, toxins, and processed food are key inflammation drivers.Hormone imbalances may present as mood swings, hair loss, irregular periods, and weight gain.Most doctors only test what's “normal”—not optimal. Don't stop at normal.Fun isn't frivolous—it's essential for hormone balance and nervous system health.Reduce your toxic burden by becoming ingredient-aware and making clean swaps.Learn more from Dr. Ellis through her free Menstrual Cycle Nutrition Guide and 7 Hormones Affecting Weight Loss video.

About Rhiannon Neuharth: Rhiannon is a Certified Functional Nutrition Counselor, Board Certified Health Coach with the American Association of Natural Wellness Coaches and a Board-Certified member of the American Association of Drugless Practitioners. She began her journey in functional nutrition after struggling to maintain her chronically ill child's health with antibiotics. Exhausted and overwhelmed, she delved into research, eventually finding her passion in supporting others on the path to optimal health and wellness. With a focus on individuals with MTHFR, Rhiannon provides simple solutions to optimized wellness in just 90 days, without spending endless hours on Google.   What We Discuss In This Episode: Rhiannon shares how her youngest child's autoimmune deficiency and chronic illness led her to discover MTHFR, a genetic variation that affects the body's ability to process folate and other key nutrients. This sparked her passion for functional nutrition and supporting others with MTHFR-related health challenges. What is MTHFR and how does it impact our health? MTHFR stands for methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase, a gene that plays a crucial role in converting folate and homocysteine. Rhiannon explains how MTHFR variations can contribute to a wide range of issues like hormone imbalances, weight problems, fatigue, ADHD, autism, and autoimmune conditions - regardless of age. Strategies for managing MTHFR and supporting overall health Rhiannon discusses the role of diet, lifestyle, stress management, and nervous system regulation in supporting those with MTHFR. She highlights the importance of gut health, hormone balance, and addressing nutrient deficiencies through targeted supplementation. The importance of comprehensive testing  Rhiannon emphasizes the need for comprehensive genetic testing that looks at 165 genes, rather than just one or two. This provides a clear action plan and insights into the root causes of a person's symptoms. She contrasts this with typical doctor-testing that may miss key factors.   Resources from Rhiannon Neuharth: Learn more about comprehensive testing by texting TEST to (321) 335-2414   Connect With Rhiannon Neuharth: Website: https://www.Revitalizing-Wellness.com TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com@MTHFR_Coach Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/Mthfr_Coach   Connect with Lynne: If you're looking for a community of like-minded women on a journey - just like you are - to improved health and wellness, overall balance, and increased confidence, check out Lynne's private community in The Energized Healthy Women's Club.

Welcome to the Triple P Life Podcast! In this episode, Dr. Jay LaGuardia welcomes Dr. Bradley Nelson, the author of the bestselling books "The Emotion Code" and "The Body Code," to discuss the often-overlooked emotional component of overall well-being. Dr. Nelson explains how unresolved emotions can become trapped in the body, leading to physical ailments, emotional distress, and hindering the healing process. They explore the concept of trapped emotions, the "emotional loop," and how the Emotion Code can help individuals identify and release this emotional baggage to improve their physical, emotional, and spiritual health. Episode Takeaways: Emotional well-being is a crucial element of overall health, alongside physical and spiritual aspects. You cannot be truly well if you neglect your emotional state. Unresolved emotions can become "trapped" in the body as energy, potentially manifesting as physical pain, disease, or emotional issues like anxiety and depression. The "emotional loop" describes the normal processing of emotions, but sometimes this loop gets stuck open, leading to trapped emotions. The Emotion Code is a method developed by Dr. Nelson to identify and release these trapped emotional energies using muscle testing and intention. Releasing trapped emotions can lead to significant improvements in physical symptoms, emotional well-being, and even the ability to forgive and move on from past hurts. Dr. Nelson has found that a vast majority of physical pain and disease processes have an emotional component. The Body Code is a more comprehensive system that addresses six categories of imbalances affecting health: energies (including trapped emotions), pathogens, circuits and systems, misalignments, toxins, and nutrition and lifestyle. The subconscious mind acts like a powerful computer that can be accessed through muscle testing to identify underlying imbalances. Dr. Nelson is releasing a new book called "The Heart Code" focusing specifically on "heart walls," which are emotional energies trapped around the heart that can hinder connection and well-being. 00:00 - Introduction to Emotional Well-being 02:14 - Introducing Dr. Bradley Nelson 04:38 - The Computer, Prayer, and Chiropractic 07:12 - The Emotional Loop Explained 09:51 - Releasing Trapped Emotions with Magnets 12:15 - *Emotion Code*: A Deeper Dive 14:40 - Consciousness, Awareness, and Trauma 17:22 - Deleting Emotional Energy 19:45 - Emotional Baggage in Animals 21:58 - Emotional vs. Physical Issues 24:10 - Training Practitioners in the *Emotion Code* 26:35 - Limitations of Western Medicine 29:01 - The Body Code System 31:18 - Symptoms and Imbalances 33:33 - Common Conditions and Open Loops 35:50 - Vibrational Tone Scale and Emotions 38:14 - The Hot Air Balloon Analogy 40:37 - *Emotion Code* vs. *Body Code* 42:50 - The Heart Wall and the Heart Code 45:18 - The Six Imbalance Categories 47:30 - Wrap Up and Contact Information Find all things Triple P Life by visiting the website.

Plus, I'll guide you through three powerful intentional practices—truth journaling, the sacred pause, and inner voice meditation—to help you clear these blocks and restore balance.

If there's one thing you need to know about me, it's that I love hormone testing. I'm talking about the DUTCH test - dried urine test that gives us a deep, behind-the-scenes look at what's really going on with your hormones. And let me tell you, after looking at hundreds of DUTCH test results, there are three big things I see again and again—things that could be the missing puzzle piece to why you're feeling off. So let's get into it! 1.

We have a mashup episode today, exploring heart health during menopause and the benefits of hormone replacement therapy.  In this episode, Dr. Felice Gersh dives into the role of estrogen in immune function, inflammation, and heart health. Dr. Deb Matthew highlights the importance of assessing cardiovascular risks and hormone balance in perimenopausal and menopausal women to optimize heart health and minimize reliance on statins. Join us as Dr. Matthew and Dr. Gersh share their insights on heart health, hormones, and menopause. Ep. 356: Menopause, Heart Health, and HRT with Dr. Felice Gersh [00:01:53] Dr. Gersh guides listeners in understanding and appreciating the impact of estrogen on immune function, inflammation, and the healing processes within the body. [49:33] Estradiol is vital for heart health, and its decline after menopause can lead to issues like stiffening of the heart, heart failure, and arrhythmias in women. Ep. 325 Menopausal Toolkit: Heart, Brain and Hormonal Health with Dr. Deb Matthew [00:01:30] Most women fear breast cancer more than heart disease, even though cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in women. Yet, clinicians fail to talk enough about the effectiveness of hormone replacement therapy in mitigating the risk of heart disease during perimenopause and menopause.  [00:04:04] While estrogen can benefit the cardiovascular health of women, the risks associated with oral estrogen and synthetic forms, including blood clots and artery plaque instability, have led to hesitancy in using hormone replacement therapy despite its potential long-term benefits when administered correctly. [00:11:26] The balance of hormones like testosterone, DHEA, and cortisol plays a crucial role in cardiovascular health. Imbalances, such as flat cortisol patterns due to stress, potentially increase the risk of heart disease. Dr. Matthew uses tests like coronary artery scans and coronary intima-media thickness to assess cardiovascular risk in patients before considering hormone replacement therapy. [00:20:22] Dr. Matthew emphasizes the importance of advanced lipid testing, addressing the nuances of cholesterol particle size and inflammation, balancing hormones, and optimizing thyroid and blood sugar levels to manage cardiovascular risk instead of immediately resorting to statins. Bio: Dr. Deb Matthew Dr. Deb Matthew MD, The Happy Hormones Doctor, is a best-selling author, international speaker, educator, wife, and mom of four boys. After suffering for years from fatigue and irritability due to hormone imbalances, her quest to resolve her personal health led her to change everything about her practice of medicine. She has been featured on national podcasts, radio, and broadcast shows, including NBC, ABC, CBS, and FOX. Her books, This Is NOT Normal! and Why Can't I Keep Up Anymore? address hormone health in women and men.
