In this episode, Dr. David Jockers dives into the dangers of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), one of the most commonly prescribed medications worldwide. You'll learn why PPIs, though effective for acid reflux, can lead to serious health issues like heart disease, cancer, and nutrient deficiencies. Dr. Jockers explains how these medications only mask symptoms without addressing the root cause.   Discover how low stomach acid, not high acid, is often behind acid reflux and how PPIs can worsen digestion and overall health. Dr. Jockers shares practical strategies to naturally manage acid reflux, focusing on lifestyle and dietary changes rather than relying on medication.   Find out how long-term use of PPIs can increase your risk of early death, as well as the alternative solutions that actually promote better digestion and overall health.

Ready to regain your confidence and clarity during divorce? Join Karen McMahon's High Conflict Divorce Support Group—a 6-session group coaching program designed to help you manage triggers, set boundaries, and take back control.  -- 2024 cracked me open. It was one of the hardest years I've lived through—personally and professionally. I felt misaligned with my values, burned out in my work, and disconnected from the joy and freedom I preach to others. But in the summer, I read The Big Leap, and something shifted. I started a year-long commitment to stepping into my Zone of Genius, facing my Upper Limit Problems head-on, and saying YES to what scared me most… and life hasn't been the same since. In this solo episode, I take you behind the scenes of my Big Leap year. I talk about dating again after a decade (gulp!), redefining fun, getting back on my bike (and maybe soon my rollerblades), losing 15 pounds not from restriction, but from celebrating myself differently. I share how I moved from wine on weekdays to novels on the beach, from overworking to letting my work flow from joy. I even caught myself starting arguments in my head—just to feed my old programming. The self-awareness has been wild...and so freeing. And yes, we talk business too. I had tantrums. I doubted. But I kept moving forward. I've reconnected with the why behind Journey Beyond Divorce, and am reimagining the how. I'm sharing what's lighting me up: podcasting, group programs, deep partnerships, and creating space for you to take your Big Leap too. This isn't just my story—it's an invitation for you to leap right alongside me.

Welcome back to Ditch the Labcoat, the podcast where we cut through the noise and myths swirling around modern healthcare—one evidence-based conversation at a time. I'm Dr. Mark Bonta, and in today's episode, get ready to hear from one of our returning guests: Dr. Samira Jeimy, allergist, immunologist, associate professor, and the straight-talking force behind Allergies Explained.Dr. Jeimy is here to tackle her “Top 10 Propaganda Pieces” as an allergy expert—the big healthcare myths, media soundbites, and outright scams that drive her up the wall. From debunking the so-called ‘immunity debt' theory and the raw milk craze, to exposing the truth behind pricey food intolerance tests and the seductive marketing of wellness supplements, she brings a blend of humor, clinical wisdom, and no-nonsense clarity.You'll hear why “natural” doesn't always mean safe, how supplement and testing industries prey on patient anxiety, and why stories—more than science—often shape the health choices we make. Dr. Jeimy also takes us inside the real conversations she has with patients confused by allergy myths, and how she helps untangle fact from fiction, one appointment at a time.Whether you're a healthcare professional, a chronic allergy sufferer, a concerned parent, or just tired of being bamboozled in the supplement aisle, this episode brings fresh perspective, sharp debunking, and a dose of laughter to your feed. So cozy up and get ready to ditch the misinformation, as we dive into the truth behind the top allergy and immunology myths with Dr. Samira Jeimy.Episode HighlightsImmunity Debt Myth Don't believe the narrative that lack of infection "weakens" your immune system; real harm comes from infections, not their absence.Food Intolerance Tests Are Useless Expensive food intolerance tests measure exposure, not intolerance, leading to wasted money and unnecessary diet restrictions.Natural Isn't Always Safe “Natural” products (like raw milk, plant oils) aren't automatically safe—many can cause harm or severe allergic reactions.Eczema Not About Food Eliminating foods often doesn't cure eczema; the real issue is inflammation of the skin, not food allergies.Overtesting Creates False Allergies Unnecessary allergy testing leads to false positives, unhelpful labels, and dangerous food restrictions.Episode Timestamps 4:16 — Influencer Impact on Health Information 6:35 — "Storytelling's Impact in Tech and Health" 12:51 — Health Concerns or Misdirection? 16:52 — Food Desensitization and Lifestyle Changes 20:07 — Countering Misinformation on Allergies 21:46 — Dietary Restrictions and Relationship Strain 25:24 — Immune System Overreaction Dangers 27:48 — Benadryl: Canada's Sole IV Antihistamine 31:12 — Dairy, Sugar, and Skin Health 35:08 — Unreported Complementary Health Treatments 38:52 — The Limitations of Unvalidated Diagnostic Tests 42:46 — Dr. Jamie: Compassionate Healthcare AdvocateDISCLAMER >>>>>>    The Ditch Lab Coat podcast serves solely for general informational purposes and does not serve as a substitute for professional medical services such as medicine or nursing.

You say you want a lifestyle change, but do you really know what that means? In this episode, I'm breaking down the real reason so many women over 40 stay stuck in the lose-regain-repeat cycle… even when they swear they're “doing everything right.” We'll talk about the hidden identity that's sabotaging your success, why lasting weight loss can't come from a temporary mindset, and what actually needs to shift in your metabolism and your mindset for change to stick. I'm sharing my story, a little of my mom's story, and what I see everyday in the women I coach. This one's honest, a little uncomfortable, and exactly what you need to hear if you're ready to stop starting over.

Are you ready to break free from diet rules and build a healthier, lasting relationship with food?In this inspiring episode, Sherry shares her journey of breaking free from diet culture and shows how mindset plays a powerful role in creating real, lasting change.She talks about her anti-diet approach and why shifting from "I can't eat that" to "I don't want that" can help you build a healthy relationship with food. Sherry also explains how listening to your body is more important than following strict diet rules.You'll hear about how she created Make Peace with Food, a program that helps people overcome emotional eating by getting to the root of their habits. With real-life stories, helpful tips, and lots of motivation, this episode is a great guide for anyone who wants to feel better in their body and enjoy the journey to health and fitness.Topics Covered:From Athlete to Adversity: Sherry's Journey Through InjurySherry Shaban's Journey From Injury to Fitness AdvocateReframing Diets to Focus on Lifestyle Changes and MindsetExploring the Benefits and Causes of Daytime NappingSherry Shaban's Journey Through Diets and Food AnxietyProfessional Stormwater and Lawn Maintenance ServicesHealing Relationships with Food and Overcoming Disordered EatingTransforming Self-Perception Through Fitness and AffirmationsOvercoming Limitations and Embracing Self-LoveIf you've ever felt like food has power over you, I hope this conversation brings you comfort and inspiration. You're not alone, and healing is possible.If you've ever felt like you're doing everything right—eating well, exercising, pushing yourself—but your body just won't let go of fat, there's a reason.Your nervous system is either in Protection Mode (fight-or-flight) or Safety Mode (rest-and-digest)—and fat release only happens in Safety Mode. But if your body feels unsafe? It clings to fat, slows metabolism, and even triggers binge eating and self-sabotage.Think about it. You go through stress, and suddenly you're reaching for food you swore you wouldn't touch. You're not weak—it's biology.

In this episode of the Grace & Grit podcast, we explore the evolving landscape of wellness strategies, focusing on how pharmaceutical supports can be integrated into a holistic approach to health for midlife wellness. We discuss the importance of maintaining fundamental wellness practices while considering medical interventions as complementary tools rather than replacements. Key Points from this Episode: Understanding the role of pharmaceutical supports, including hormone therapy, weight management medications, and prescribed supplements in modern wellness The critical importance of maintaining fundamental health practices like hydration, sleep, nutrition, mindset, and movement Why taking an integrated approach (combining medical interventions with basic wellness practices) leads to better outcomes This episode emphasizes that while modern medical interventions can be valuable tools in our wellness journey, they work best when built upon a strong foundation of basic health practices. The message is clear: it's not about choosing between medical supports and fundamentals – it's about thoughtfully combining both for optimal results.
