This episode features Prof. Hariom Yadav PhD, from the University of South Florida (USA), speaking about the skin microbiome and potential interventions for anti-aging and wound healing. Prof. Yadav noted that humans have a stable (core) microbiome on the surface of skin cells, plus a transient microbiome that depends on recent exposures. The skin microbiome constantly changes through the lifespan, and in aging, many skin conditions are correlated with the microbiome. Animal studies show a causal component of the microbiome in some of these conditions. However, because of the large skin microbiome differences from person to person and in narrow age groups, technologies or products may have to be designed in a personalized way. Prof. Yadav's lab conducted experiments with lactobacilli and found strain-dependent effects of probiotics on anti-aging, and for some strains these effects persisted when the inactivated bacteria (postbiotics) were used. The postbiotics have commercial advantages over probiotics in this area of health. Prof. Yadav described an application in wound healing, building on the idea that microbial stimulation promotes natural skin cell growth and more fibroblasts. A standard treatment for wound healing is effective but may lead to scarring; the postbiotic treatment leaves less scarring. The efficacy of the postbiotic occurs because inactivated bacteria still give growth-promoting signals to the skin cells. Applying metabolites directly may not be as effective because bacterial cells or extracts work on host cells, which changes the skin environment and further supports positive skin microbiome changes.

In this episode of the Optimal Body Podcast, Doc Jen and Doctor Dom, both Doctors of Physical Therapy welcome Doctor Nathan Bryan, an expert in nitric oxide biochemistry. Doctor Bryan explains how nitric oxide, a short-lived signaling molecule, is essential for cardiovascular health, brain function, immune defense, and longevity.

Doctor Bryan also shares practical health tips to restore levels, including exercise, nasal breathing, dietary changes, and his scientifically developed nitric oxide-based supplements, highlighting their potential to combat chronic diseases like Alzheimer's, diabetes, and heart disease.

This week, Tee welcomes Dr. Paul Dabney, NMD, MPH, M.Ed., a naturopathic physician and CEO of The Center for Natural Health and Optimal Wellness, for a conversation on rethinking diabetes care through prevention and integrative medicine. With over 20 years of experience in clinical research, medical writing, and public health, his work has included contributions to The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, The Food and Drug Administration, Michigan State University School of Veterinary Medicine, and The U.S. Army Medical Corps, along with teaching roles in naturopathic education.

Drawing from his background in microbiology, antimicrobial resistance, and public health, along with his mother's Cherokee-based healing traditions, he offers a perspective that bridges conventional and holistic care.  Throughout the conversation, Dr. Paul emphasizes that while medications can be helpful, they may also contribute to nutrient depletion or unintended side effects in some cases. He highlights the importance of key nutrients such as zinc, vitamin D, magnesium, and vitamin B6, along with foundational lifestyle factors like sleep, stress management, cortisol balance, and access to quality food. He also shares practical strategies to support blood sugar stability, including simple combinations like pairing fruit with proteins and healthy fats.

“I have all these learned behaviors, and … was seeing them play out in my own family, with my own children, and thinking about the generational transference of hurt and wounds and wanting to do what I could to minimize that.” – Carrie Levine Certified nurse-midwife and functional medicine practitioner Carrie Levine has had a lifelong interest in deep exploration. She completed the Hoffman Process in 2024, having learned about patterns years earlier from reading Bob Hoffman’s book, No One Is to Blame. She truly understood Bob Hoffman’s realization that “No one is to blame.” Self-described as weird when young, Carrie explored a variety of unusual passions as a teen, including challenging activities in nature. In early adulthood, Carrie led women through outdoor experiential educational adventures, guiding them to become skilled and empowered in a variety of settings. Later, as she embarked on a new career in medicine, Carrie drew parallels between supporting women in nature and supporting them in the labor room. She found the skills and presence she’d gained earlier also empowered women during childbirth. Sharing her journey, Carrie highlights how she came to learn about herself. She is clear that she must be aligned with her Spiritual Self and reflects on how she doesn’t do well when she isn’t aligned. She now counsels her patients that optimal health can only come when we are aligned with our core self. Carrie refers many women to the Hoffman Process. She sees that women, especially parents, need to step away from their everyday lives to do deep healing work. Her experience now helps others realize the importance of aligning mind, body, and spirit for optimal wellness. Content Warning: This episode mentions the death of a child and suicide.

In Part 3 of The Journey Beyond Death—and the second installment of our Mental Health Resiliency arc—we take a deeply personal and professional dive into the labyrinth of grief. Guided by voices shaped through trauma, therapy, and triumph, this episode explores the raw emotional landscape that follows profound loss. With the haunting echoes of personal stories—from being raised by Holocaust survivors to losing parents to Alzheimer's and suicide—our guests share tools that helped them move through sorrow with grace: meditation, therapeutic writing, community, and nature. Psychotherapist Megan Bruneau and holistic psychiatrist Dr. Rebecca Valla illuminate how grieving minds need structure, empathy, and non-judgmental support. Clinical psychologist Dr. John Huber breaks down how guilt and irrational thinking can derail healing—and what practical methods can restore inner balance. Dr. Pat Baccili delivers powerful spiritual and psychological reflections on trauma and the human need to witness grief without solving it. We also highlight Functional Health Practitioner Karen Shoshana's unique insights into how somatic care—sleep, breath, nutrition—can ground us during loss. And Dr. Gaini De Silva offers a compassionate look at adolescent grief and physical practices for emotional regulation. Together, these voices reveal that mourning is not a timeline but a terrain—and those who traverse it consciously can emerge stronger, wiser, and more open-hearted than ever. This episode reminds us that grief is sacred. It is an invitation to become more human, more whole, and, paradoxically, more alive. Whether you've just begun your grieving journey or are still haunted by echoes from years ago, this episode offers powerful emotional tools, insights, and hope. --------------------------------------- Featuring in order of appearance: 01:00 – Karen Shoshana 11:00 – Psychotherapist Megan Bruneau 13:46 – Dr. Pat Baccilli 20:00 - Forensic Psychologist Dr. John Huber 42:40 – Dr. Rebecca S.

In this episode, we explore natural ways to restore thyroid health by focusing on diet, toxin avoidance, and stress management. Whether you're dealing with hypothyroidism or autoimmune thyroid conditions like Hashimoto's, understanding how certain foods and toxins impact your thyroid is key.    We dive into dietary adjustments, highlighting the benefits of a ketogenic diet to reduce inflammation and support hormone balance. In addition, we will discuss healing the gut with pre and probiotics as well as eliminating allergens such as gluten and soy which can also aid in thyroid recovery. Additionally, we emphasize the need to avoid toxins in tap water, particularly chlorine and fluoride, which can interfere with thyroid function.   Lastly, we focus on managing stress, which can make thyroid issues worse by reducing the effectiveness of thyroid hormones. Incorporating relaxation techniques like yoga and meditation, along with liver detox practices, can support your body's healing process and help restore balance to your thyroid naturally.   get your labs done and take the antibody test if needed by ordering here! 

Today's guest is Krista Hernandez, a wellness coach who empowers women to help heal their bodies, restore their minds, & renew their spirits naturally. She spent over 20 years learning to manage & ultimately heal multiple chronic illnesses, including lupus. This was a really fun conversation, and one that pretty quickly went off course from my original plan. While we started off talking about her story with chronic illness and the steps she took to heal, we quickly got deep on topics such as healing feminine energy - you will learn what that means - doing inner child work, healing mother wounds, and non-traditional modalities such as acupuncture, reiki, tarot and more. If you have been listening for a while, or know me by now, you know I love to talk about the woo-woo side of holistic health. Both Krista and I believe that so many physical issues, ailments and illnesses can be traced back to our emotional world, especially emotions and traumas that get stuck or trapped in the body.

This episode brings host Jamie Belz and fellow FNTP, Thomas Gilliford together for a very real conversation about food and wellness. They dive into all things from the perspective of thriving within the navigational beacons of the aggressive pursuit of optimal wellness and setting realistic expectations for functionality and quality of life. Thomas covers his newly developed FCA (Functional Clinical Assessment) Program available to NTPs who desire to add the “F” on the front of their credential to make them FNTPs (Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioners). This skill set, formerly called the Functional Evaluation, utilizes hands-on and lingual neural testing to help identify which nutrients and nutrient formulations are best for each person's bio-individual receptivity. This enables the practitioner to cut through the sea of options available when it comes to nutraceuticals and supplementation protocols to quickly identify which product is right for each individual's needs. Their conversation continues to run through many aspects of navigating diet, supplementation, expiration dates and ultra-processed foods, alcohol, surgeries and prescriptions, sleep and stress, and other wellness inputs. They discuss the challenge of trying to balance rigid rules and expectations with being realistic and enjoying life. Additional topics they touch on: eating out, alcohol, progression, EMFs, hydration, avoidance of surgery by incorporation of water, Lyme, Green Washing, Big Macs, glyphosate, dairy/milk, vegan/vegetarian, gallbladder removal (cholecystectomy), blind spots, trauma, grief,      Please hit “subscribe” and share this episode with someone!

In this episode of The Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast, host Jamie Belz, FNTP, MHC, brings back historical audio clips from a lecture originally given by the founder of The Nutritional Therapy Association, Gray Graham. Gray discusses the optimal function of digestion in a way you've never heard it explained. Listen to this, then hit the “subscribe” button to catch the next episode where Gray explains digestive dysfunction. Many embark upon their wellness journey by cleaning up their diet. While this is a necessary step, the healthiest diet according to everyone's bioindividual needs doesn't do much good for them if they're not properly breaking down the food into molecules that can be absorbed and utilized within the body. The health of the organism is dependent upon the health of the organ systems, which are dependent upon the health of the organs, which is dependent upon the health of the tissues, which is dependent upon the health of the cells, which is dependent upon digestion. Thus, all wellness begins with digestion. 06:41 – Overview of digestion 08:59 – Digestive inputs/volume 15:42 – Six digestive functions 17:09 – Digestion is a north-to-south process – where does it begin?  20:48 – Digestion is fundamental to Nutritional Therapy  21:45 – How's it all supposed to work? – Deep dive into optimal function   ________________________ Visit www.nutritionaltherapy.com/podcast or click here to record an intro or ask a question you'd like answered on the show!
