In this solo episode, I address the misconception that normal lab results always indicate optimal fertility or that there aren't any underlying issues present. Using a case study from one of my clients, I illustrate how a deeper, holistic analysis can uncover underlying issues affecting fertility that standard labs might miss. I highlight the importance of analyzing the whole body, including (but not limited to) hormone tests like the DUTCH Test, lifestyle factors, nutrition and environmental influences. The episode also emphasizes the need for personalized approaches to fertility.

With a passionate and loyal social media audience of 4 million with 50 million monthly views, Tamsen leverages her decades of journalism experience to provide actionable tools from dozens of world-renowned experts on topics that women like herself have been curious about, afraid to talk about, or ashamed to ask.Tamsen is the creator and producer of the groundbreaking PBS documentary, “The M Factor: Shredding the Silence on Menopause”, which has galvanized a global movement. It has been viewed by over 1 million women, led to thousands of screenings around the world, and is the first documentary on menopause accredited to provide Continuing Medical Education (CME) credits for doctors.Her latest book, How To Menopause: Take Charge of Your Health, Reclaim Your Life, and Feel Even Better than Before (Balance Publishing), will be available in March of 2025.Tamsen's candor and relatability have taken her from the boardroom to the stage at SXSW to Capitol Hill, where she advocates for policies that eliminate the stigma of menopause and foster an environment where women feel empowered to embrace their midlife transition, finding joy,confidence, and fulfillment through every life stage.

Do you want to optimize your detoxification and improve gut motility? The answer may lie in rotating dietary fibers. It's not just about the type or amount of fiber, but the diversity and rotation of fibers that can truly revolutionize your gut health. Rotating fibers every few days can create a diverse gut microbiome as well as help your detox. In this episode, Dr. Deanna Minich delves into the vital role of phytonutrients and fiber in promoting detoxification and gut health. She emphasizes the significance of incorporating a diverse range of colorful foods and rotating dietary fibers to optimize gut motility and support the body's detoxification processes. She advocates for the rotational approach to fiber intake, recommending the inclusion of about 50 unique foods within a week to promote diversity and enhance immune health. Listen now and start adding fibers to your diet today! Follow us on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/feelfreakingamazing/  Summary Dr. Minich discusses the relationship between phytonutrients and detoxification, highlighting the role of fiber in preventing the absorption of toxicants into the body and binding to toxins, estrogen, and liver metabolites. Dr. Minich stresses the importance of adequate hydration alongside fiber consumption and categorizes fibers into broom fibers, which promote gut motility, and mop fibers, which aid in toxin binding and gut microbiome health.  Phytonutrients in Colorful Foods Phytonutrients play a vital role in supporting the body's detoxification mechanisms. By consuming a rainbow of fruits and vegetables, you can harness the power of diverse phytonutrients to enhance your overall health and aid in detox processes. Incorporating colorful foods can help you optimize your detox and improve your gut health. Fiber and Detox Fiber is a key player in supporting detoxification processes within the body. It acts as a binding agent for heavy metals, estrogen, and liver metabolites, facilitating their elimination from the body. Just as a broom, it sweeps away toxins and waste products, preventing their absorption into the bloodstream.  Implementing a Rotation Diet A rotation diet involves regularly changing up your food choices to promote dietary diversity and avoid developing sensitivities to specific foods. Dr. Minich recommends rotating fiber sources every three to four days and aiming to include around 50 unique foods within a week. This approach helps prevent gut microbiome imbalances and ensures that the body receives a wide array of nutrients for optimal health and detoxification.  Listen now and start adding fibers to your diet today! Guest Bio Dr. Deanna Minich is a nutrition scientist, international lecturer, educator, and author, with over twenty years of experience in academia and in the food and dietary supplement industries, currently serving as Chief Science Officer at Symphony Natural Health.
