About the Show:“Why did nobody tell me about this?”– Dr. Kristin MarkellIn this episode of I Am Northwest Arkansas®, host Randy Wilburn sits down with Dr. Kristin Markell, an integrative medicine specialist helping women navigate the often-overlooked journey of perimenopause and menopause. Dr. Markell combines her experience as a traditional OB/GYN with holistic, whole-person strategies to provide personalized care for women in Northwest Arkansas and beyond.Together, Randy and Dr. Markell break down the basics of perimenopause and menopause—including what these terms really mean, when symptoms can start, and why every woman's experience is unique. Dr. Markell shares her personal and professional journey, the frustration women feel about the lack of education on these topics, and how integrative medicine can help women feel their best through this stage of life.The episode also explores how families, employers, and the wider community can better support women during this transition, as well as the emerging innovations and digital tools empowering women to take charge of their health.If you're a woman, love a woman, work with women, or are simply curious, this is an important conversation for you.Key Takeaways:Menopause is natural but often misunderstood: Most women aren't taught about perimenopause and menopause early enough. Symptoms can start as early as a woman's 30s—not just in the 50s or 60s—and everyone's experience is different.Definitions matter: Menopause is officially when a woman hasn't had a period for one year; perimenopause is the 7-10 years leading up to that.Symptoms are more than hot flashes: Every area of the body can be affected, from brain fog and anxiety to fatigue, aches, and sexual health changes.You don't have to “just deal with it”: Dr. Markell urges women not to “white knuckle” through symptoms—there are treatments and support, including both hormonal and non-hormonal options.Integrative medicine offers personalized care: Dr. Markell's approach looks at the whole person, from nutrition to stress to long-term wellness, not just the symptoms.Support is a team effort: Family, partners, co-workers, and employers all play a role in helping women thrive during this time.Resources are growing: New digital tools, wearables, and dedicated clinics (including right here in NWA!) are giving women greater access to care and information.All this and more on this episode of the I Am Northwest Arkansas® podcast.Important Links and Mentions on the Show* Dr. Kristin Markell's Website: https://kristinmarkellmd.comThe Menopause Society: https://www.menopause.orgDr. Markell on Instagram: @kristenmarkellmdDr. Markell on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kristinmarkellmd/Contact Dr. Markell's Office: 479-222-0966You can listen to the I Am Northwest Arkansas® podcast weekly on KUAF 91.3 FM's Ozarks at Large(Other resources and episodes mentioned: Mel Robbins, “The Diary of a CEO” with Steven Bartlett, Dr. Peter Attia & Dr. Rachel Rubin Podcast, Midi Health, Electra Health)FindItNWA.com NWA's Hyperlocal Business DirectoryThis episode is sponsored by*Signature Bank of Arkansas "Community Banking at its Best!"

Welcome to Mind Over Matters, where we explore the science, stories, and strategies behind whole-person wellness. I'm your host, Dr. Aimee Harris-Newon and this week we're diving into a fascinating, often misunderstood form of healing: integrative chiropractic care. You might think of chiropractic care as just a quick back crack or something you only need when you're in pain. But what if I told you it can be a powerful tool to optimize your nervous system, improve immune function, reduce stress, support digestion, enhance mental clarity, and even promote better sleep? On this week' show, we'll take a closer look at how integrative chiropractic care is transforming lives by combining traditional spinal adjustments with a comprehensive approach to health that includes nutrition, lifestyle guidance, and collaboration with other medical professionals. Whether you're dealing with chronic pain, fatigue, digestive challenges, or mental fog—or you simply want to feel more aligned with your body—this episode could open a new door to healing. We'll also explore how this field endured one of the most significant smear campaigns in modern medical history and emerged stronger, validated by science and supported by a growing number of collaborative healthcare providers. So let's get aligned, shall we?

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows! This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track! Check out today's questions:    Katrina: Thank you for the amazing knowledge you share; it's been invaluable for my family and me. I love to cook and am very interested in learning more about how to plan and cook meals from an integrative and functional perspective. I've researched and come across: "Integrative and Functional Nutrition Academy (IFNA) – Offers a Functional Nutrition Certification and the IFNCP Advanced Practice Credential, which is 100% online and self-paced. This program focuses on a whole-systems approach to identifying and treating the root causes of chronic disease." Are you familiar with this certification? If so, does it align with your views on diet and nutrition? If not, is there a certification or other recommended path you'd suggest for obtaining in-depth training?                                                          Stacey: Hello Dr. Cabral , I hope you are having a fantastic day ! My question is for fat transfer to the breast . I'm thinking of removing my implants due to possible BII & using fat transfer to help replace what volume will be missing . I heard one Dr. say it potentially could cause cancer in the breasts due to all fat having stem cells and by adding new fat tissue to the breast could cause cancer cells to activate??? What is your option on this ? I have breast cancer on my mom's side . My mother , grandma & aunt .                                                                                                                                                                    Stacey: Hello Dr. Cabral Thanks for all your knowledge I listen to you daily ! What is your opinion on liposuction? I have extra fat on my inner thighs and it drives me bonkers ! Even at my goal weight and I'm almost there thanks to you . This fat doesn't want budge . It shrinks but still there and not in proportion with the rest of my body . I'm thinking of liposuction as weight training and diet ect does not help . It truly bothers me to wear a bathing suit or even shorts . Do you think it's worth the risk of surgery? Thank you                                                                                                                                                               Matthew: I'm interested in taking colostrum for it's many benefits, but I've read about the possibility of an increase in the chances for various cancers to develop while taking colostrum. Is this true and if so how likely is that to happen. I'm an active 44 year old and my main reason for wanting to take it is for the added benefits of developing lean muscle. I work out 3-5 times per week and would like to add something natural like colostrum to my diet. Thanks!                                                  Stacey: Hey Dr. Cabral thank you for everything!! I'm a huge fan and student of yours . I have a question about Teslas . We are looking into purchasing one but I've been hearing that they give off lots of EMFs . What is your opinion on that ? Thanks and have a blessed day                                                                                                                                                       Thank you for tuning into today's Cabral HouseCall and be sure to check back tomorrow where we answer more of our community's questions!    - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/3445 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?

In this compelling episode, I sit down with integrative medicine pioneer Dr. Jeffrey Dach, MD, to explore his holistic, science-backed approach to fighting cancer. Drawing from his powerful book The Cancer Toolkit, Dr. Dach explains the core mechanisms behind cancer development and progression, and the multifaceted toolkit he uses to address it, from off-label pharmaceuticals and checkpoint inhibitors, to nutritional protocols, repurposed drugs, and targeted supplements. We also break down the three key cellular pathways that go awry in cancer, how to support the body's natural defenses, and why addressing the root cause—not just the tumor—is essential for long-term remission and recovery.  Topics We Cover: Dr. Dach's integrative and functional approach to cancer treatment Key drivers of cancer: inflammation, angiogenesis, metabolic dysfunction The most promising off-label drugs (e.g., metformin, mebendazole, statins) Why the Warburg effect matters—and how to target it Supplements with strong anti-cancer evidence Checkpoint inhibitors and immune activation Building a multi-modal protocol for better outcomes Patient empowerment and the future of cancer care  COMING SOON: Don't miss Part 2 of this interview, where we dive into Dr. Dach's newest book Bioidentical Hormones 101, and his trailblazing protocols for restoring hormonal health safely and naturally. Whether you're a practitioner, patient, or someone interested in cancer prevention, this episode delivers a deep dive into truly transformative insights. Connect with Dr Jeffrey: Website: Jeffreydachmd.com The Cancer Toolkit: Jeffreydachmd.com/books BIO: Special Guest - Dr. Jeffrey Dach Jeffrey Dach (pronounced DASH) was originally board certified in Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology and worked in the hospital setting for 25 years. After eye trouble, Dr. Dach retired from radiology and started a clinic specializing in bioidentical hormones and natural thyroid and continued this for the last 24 years. He is the author of Bioidentical Hormones 101, Natural Thyroid Toolkit, Heart Book and Cracking Cancer Toolkit.

In this episode, I respond to a thoughtful question from Cassie in North Carolina about integrative play therapy and the belief that there's no “one size fits all” approach. As a CCPT purist, I explain why I believe in full adherence to a single theoretical model and why integration—though well-intentioned—can dilute effectiveness, undermine empirical support, and blur the therapeutic process. I lay out the research supporting non-directive, humanistic models like CCPT and explain why choosing one model and sticking to it isn't just a preference—it's a clinical responsibility. I also share how theoretical alignment leads to better outcomes for children, greater confidence for therapists, and a clearer framework for ethical and effective practice. This is an episode for anyone wrestling with theoretical commitment or wondering if their integrative approach is truly serving their clients.

Anna Palumbo (SO/SP 9w8 937) returns for a second conversation—this time reflecting on the shifts she's experienced since our last recording. We begin with a live performance of her original song Wings for the Heart, a piece that emerged in the wake of personal rupture and now stands as both witness and balm. What follows is a layered exploration of emotional fragmentation, the disorienting effects of internal and external turbulence, and the slow, deliberate work of reweaving oneself from the inside out. Anna speaks candidly about a transformative road trip with her family that cracked something open—making space for parts of herself she'd long kept at bay. We discuss the cost of emotional suppression, the subtle tensions in relational dynamics, and the grounded power that comes from living with greater authenticity. What emerges is the portrait of a Nine learning to inhabit her full aliveness, not by transcending conflict but by letting all the pieces have a seat at the table.

In this powerful episode of Never Been Sicker, Michael Rubino sits down with Dr. Suzanne Gilberg, Chief Clinical Officer of MonarchMD and author of Menopause Bootcamp, for a wide-ranging and eye-opening conversation about how environmental toxins—from mold to microplastics—are silently impacting our health, especially women's health.Dr. Gilberg is conventionally trained (board-certified in OBGYN and formerly in Integrative and Holistic Medicine), but her experience and curiosity led her to explore the deeper, often-overlooked environmental factors behind the rise in chronic illness—particularly among women going through perimenopause and menopause.Dr. Gilberg also shares why she founded Menopause Bootcamp, the movement she started to create safe, supportive spaces where women can learn, connect, and take control of their health—without shame or gaslighting.This conversation is a must-watch for anyone feeling dismissed, frustrated, or unsupported in their health journey. It's also a wake-up call for how little our environment is being factored into mainstream healthcare—and why that needs to change.00:00 Introduction to Environmental Toxins and Health02:56 The Impact of Microplastics and Wildfires05:49 Understanding the Connection Between Environment and Health08:49 Air Quality and Public Health Initiatives11:50 Mold Exposure and Women's Health15:07 The Relationship Between Environmental Toxins and Menopause23:37 The State of Women's Health Research24:34 Inflammation and Women's Health28:12 Challenges in the Medical System32:49 Transitioning to a New Practice Model37:45 Menopause Bootcamp: Empowering Women42:32 Connecting with Dr. Suzanne Gilberg

This week on Sustainability Now!, your host, Justin Mog, is delighted to get a chance to catch up with Dr. Luz Huntington-Moskos about environmental health and disaster preparedness in Kentucky. Luz was last on the program in 2021, when the Center was fairly new and today we'll get to hear how things have evolved since then. This program is a follow-up to our May 19th conversation with Luz's colleagues at CIEHS, Cat Aiton & Sarah Jump - Listen at https://soundcloud.com/wfmp-forward-radio/sustainability-now-cat-aiton-sarah-jump-uofl-center-for-integrative-environmental-health-science-5-19-25 In addition to serving on the UofL Sustainability Council, Luz is an Associate Professor of Nursing Education at the University of Louisville and Director of the Community Engagement Core at UofL's Center for Integrative Environmental Health Sciences. Learn more at https://louisville.edu/ciehs/cores/cec/cec Dr. Huntington-Moskos' research has focused on the prevention of lung cancer by addressing secondhand smoke and radon exposure in the homes of low-income families with children. Using a life course perspective, she is interested in addressing cancer prevention early in the trajectory of a child's life through the use of home testing for chronic environmental exposures. Her educational background includes a strong foundation in maternal child health and health disparities. As a recipient of two Maternal Child Health Bureau (MCHB) traineeships, she completed specialized training in child health theory, growth/development and adolescent resiliency. Her PhD dissertation examined the impact of tobacco use behaviors and secondhand smoke exposure on the cardiovascular health of rural adolescents. As a postdoctoral scholar with the Bridging Research Efforts and Advocacy Toward Healthy Environments (BREATHE) research team at the University of Kentucky, College of Nursing, she assisted in participant recruitment and expanded her knowledge of intervention research and home testing. As a co-investigator, funded by a National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) diversity supplement, she examined the influence of having children in the home and the completion of home testing for radon and secondhand smoke. She has experience working with under-resourced communities during her service in the United States Peace Corps, as a registered nurse working in inner city Baltimore and on the Navajo Nation.

Up to 40% of cancers are attributable to modifiable risk factors, including diet, obesity, alcohol, tobacco use, and physical inactivity. The WCRF estimates that about 1 in 3 cancer cases in high-income countries could be prevented by healthier diets, maintaining a healthy weight, and regular physical activity. And according to the National Cancer Institute in the US, physical inactivity is a recognized risk factor for colon, breast, and endometrial cancer.But even with the best intentions there's a lot of confusion around lifestyle and cancer. One day it's red meat, the next it's microwaves. We hear about them in headlines, social media posts or passed around in conversation, which can make it really hard to know what matters most.I'm joined today by Professor Robert Thomas, an NHS oncologist and researcher who's spent decades studying how lifestyle (from food and movement to gut health and supplements) affects cancer risk and recovery. We talk about …

In this powerful episode of Keeping Abreast, I sit down with renowned functional medicine pioneer Dr. Allen Magaziner to explore his transformative journey into integrative care. From the early days of facing resistance in a conventional medical landscape to building a thriving holistic practice, Dr. Magaziner shares how personal experiences—particularly his mother's health struggles—led him to challenge the status quo.Together, we unpack the many flaws in our current medical system, including the dangers of overdiagnosis, the overreliance on prescription medications, and the urgent need to prioritize health over disease management. This conversation dives deep into the misunderstood world of cholesterol, inflammation, and the often-overlooked role of nutritional deficiencies—especially vitamin D—in both cancer prevention and treatment.Listeners will be inspired by Dr. Magaziner's passion for integrative oncology, his insights into lifestyle medicine, and his message of hope for anyone facing cancer. The episode also honors the legacy of Suzanne Somers, who bravely championed hormone replacement therapy and encouraged women to reclaim their health after cancer. In This Episode, You Will Learn:-Dr. Magaziner's path into functional medicine began with his mother's illness-The limitations of conventional medicine spurred his shift toward integrative care-Overdiagnosis and prescription drug overuse are harming more than helping-Cholesterol is essential to health—context and nuance matter-Vitamin D regulates over 2,000 genes, including many with anti-cancer properties-Maintaining optimal vitamin D levels (>90 ng/mL) is critical in cancer care-Integrative oncology can radically improve both outcomes and quality of life-Repurposed medications, such as metformin, show promise in cancer therapy-Fear inhibits healing—support, mindset, and curiosity are vital-Suzanne Somers' legacy continues to empower women's wellness journeys 

Click here to send me a quick message :) Got cramps? The truth is there is not just one answer to how to relieve menstrual cramps, and my guess is that if you've got cramps you've realized this yourself.It took me years to understand that there are many different KINDS of menstrual cramps, and they all come from different imbalances in the body and the pelvis.Today I explore a question I received from a listener about how to stretch or support your ligaments that hold the uterus in place.But before I dive into that, I share what I consider to be foundational ways to observe your menstrual cramps to become a detective of your own body and consider what qualities of your cramps and other symptoms might be telling you.Then I share about my first step with almost everyone, and a little glimpse into how herbs might be allies - and why many herbs won't work, too.And finally, I give a little insight into some of the hands on (and possibly hands in) ways you can both assess and tend to your tissues in the palace of your pelvis.Resources:Grab the free guide: Track your cycle with FAM (and symptom tracking)Today's shownotes: Holistic & embodied approach to menstrual crampsEpisode 19: The importance of softening the pelvis w Chaya Leia AronsonEpisode 32: Herbal spotlight on motherwortEpisode 176: Integrative approach to fibroidsIf you loved this episode, share it with a friend, or take a screenshot and share on social media and tag me @herbalwombwisdomAnd if you love this podcast, leave a rating & write a review!

BIO:Dr. Neel Bulchandani is an intra- and inter-disciplinary healer specializing in solving complex problems related to sleep, airway, feeding, and mobility. He uses systems thinking and a kaleidoscopic approach (nod to Thomas Edison) in order to help all ages -- babies to adults. He began as a chiropractor 17 years ago, and then 9 years ago, when his daughter was born with a tongue tie, he went down the rabbit hole of tethered oral tissues and airway/feeding centered health. Already curious and delving into fascia and visceral work (organs), Neel dove even deeper in order to help figure out the surrounding issues related to his daughter's feeding issues. He developed a Floor of the Mouth Protocol, and has online courses for both practitioners and patients where he aids them in freeing tongue and mouth tension. He has created an Airway Map comprised of 70 areas in the body that are often restricted when there are issues with the mouth, like tongue tie, narrow palates, etc. He's begun a tour across many cities in 2025 to teach other practitioners his method, and will be in Phoenix in June, Boise in July, Chicago in August, Minnesota in September, and Sarasota and Dallas in November. He's married to Dawn, and dad to 3 (Serenity, Cypress, and Zephyr). He does in-person and virtual appointments, and is based in Santa Barbara. He also sees patients in Agoura Hills, Woodland Hills, Los Angeles, and the Bay Area.SHOWNOTES:

Despite being the leading cause of death, heart disease often receives less urgent attention than cancer. This episode delves into an integrative cardiology approach, exploring advanced diagnostics, personalized lifestyle interventions, and innovative therapies that are revolutionizing heart health and longevity.Today on the Vibrant Wellness podcast, hosts Dr. Emmie Brown, ND, and Melissa Gentile, INHC, welcome Dr. Giovanni Campanile, a Harvard-trained cardiologist and pioneer in integrative cardiology. Dr. Campanile, a "reformed interventional cardiologist," discusses his shift from traditional interventions to a practice focused on the prevention and reversal of heart disease by addressing underlying causes.Their conversation highlights the limitations of conventional risk factors and introduces "non-traditional" factors such as hormones, diet, exercise, and environmental toxins. Dr. Campanile stresses the importance of personalized lifestyle modifications, including varied exercise routines and a sensible, plant-rich Mediterranean-style diet. He also explains how the use of innovative diagnostic tools like CT coronary calcium scores and coronary CT angiography (CCTA) with AI-powered plaque analysis is crucial for precise risk assessment and monitoring disease progression. The episode also touches on AI EKGs for predicting biological age and arrhythmia risk, and explores the benefits of functional medicine modalities like hyperbaric oxygen therapy, sauna, cryotherapy, and photobiomodulation for enhancing vascular health and promoting vibrant wellness.Key Takeaways from Today's Episode:
