We're digging into how functional genetics can improve pregnancy outcomes. At Fab Fertile, we've been offering genetic/genomic testing as part of our method for years. This genetic testing is very different from the testing you would receive from your doctor. When you go to a fertility clinic, they typically conduct karyotyping genetic testing to understand your ability to produce a healthy embryo. However, approximately 10% of the population has abnormal chromosomes, so focusing solely on karyotyping misses crucial genetic information. Our genetic testing looks at specific gene variants and makes specific diet/lifestyle recommendations and supplements that can support your genes. This genetic testing helps us personalize and fast-track your chances of pregnancy success. So how do we use genetics testing to identify what is holding you back from conceiving and fast-tracking pregnancy success? I'm excited to welcome Dr. Sam Shay to the podcast. Dr. Shay earned a Doctorate in Chiropractic and degrees and certifications in acupuncture, functional neurology, genetics analysis, and functional medicine. In this episode, you'll learn: 1) Why genetic testing is essential for anyone trying to conceive, and which genes are essential for conception and improving pregnancy outcomes 2) How to boost the immune system and why this matters for reproductive health 3) Specific genes such as MTHFR and more and how to support genetic pathways to get pregnant this year   Download your free Missing Genes Mini Course - https://drsamshay.com/genetics   --- RESOURCES: Fab Fertile Method https://www.fabfertile.com/what-we-do/   Ultimate Guide to Getting Pregnant This Year If You Have Low AMH/High FSH - https://fabfertile.clickfunnels.com/optinvbzjfsii   --- Vitamin D deficiency may be linked to decreased ovarian reserve, as indicated by higher serum FSH, low AMH and low antral follicle count.

Sam shares his experience writing his comedy special --  "Neurospicy: Love, Life, and Comedy on the Spectrum" -- as being both "confronting" as he revisited challenging moments in his life, but also "healing" as he was able to reframe those experiences through the filter of Asperger's. Sam describes growing up without a diagnosis as being "confusing, isolating, and lacking a shared reality," and shares that the process of writing this show has created a shared reality and community. We discuss what it feels like to look back at the years we spent without a diagnosis or understanding our brains, and how there is a balance between grief and relief. Sam and I talk about the role of humor as a masking technique to make yourself palatable to others and feel protected. As we reflect on the grief of looking back on life after receiving a diagnosis, Sam describes the neurological function of the grieving process and how it provides space to create new neural pathways. Sam describes the role of comedy as both an escape and a means of understanding human dynamics and social structures, and shares the function of humor from an evolutionary psychology standpoint, which is to be a proxy for social intelligence. Sam and I hone in on the value of using stand-up comedy to amplify and curate your best qualities but also to "digest and deliver a shared sense of humanity over the worst experiences." It all comes back to creating community and connection.Dr. Sam Shay, DC, IFMCP solves health puzzles for busy, health-conscious moms, mom-preneurs, and adults with Aspergers so that they can exit survival mode and re-enter community. Sam started his health journey from being chronically unwell from age 6-18, stemming from a fraught home and school environment. Starting as a child, he struggled with crippling insomnia, severe fatigue, two addictions (sugar and video games), high anxiety, bad gut problems, chronic spinal pain, and social isolation. He decided to take back control of his health as a late teenager and dedicated his life to natural medicine, functional testing, and re-entering community.

“If you know your genetics, you know your ideal.” - Dr. Sam ShayMethylation is an extremely important biochemical process essential for numerous bodily functions. The MTHFR gene was one of the first genes identified and available for testing to the public, so many practitioners and patients have become hyper-focused on methylation when it comes to genetic testing.The truth is, while methylation is crucial, there are other processes that the body will prioritize over it. Rather than looking at it as the most crucial pathway, we need to explore other genes that control disease drivers, have significant variation in the general population, and are supported by scientific research for lifestyle and nutrition interventions. Understanding this broader picture allows us to take a more holistic approach to optimizing health.Today, I'm excited to chat with Dr. Sam Shay, DC, IFMCP, a chiropractor and functional medicine practitioner who focuses on genetics and methylation. Dr. Sam solves health puzzles for busy, health-conscious moms, mom-preneurs, and adults with Aspergers so that they can exit survival mode and re-enter the community. Known as the friendly "lab nerd," Dr. Sam specializes in functional lab and genetics analysis for data-driven results. Dr. Sam is also a Stand-Up Comic, using clean, observational comedy to educate and entertain.In this conversation, Dr. Sam and I discuss the role of genetics and methylation in health and thyroid conditions specifically. We talk about why Dr. Sam recommends comprehensive genetic testing for most of his clients, the need for personalized health strategies based on individual genetic profiles, how we can integrate genetic and functional medicine testing, the long-term benefits of genetic testing, and more.

Did you know that your genes actually determine how your immune system responds to sickness, exercise, and stress? If you have genetic SNPs (mutations in certain genes), then you could be more prone to inflammation, chronic pain, and a slower recovery from things like exercise.That is exactly what I found out in this episode, where Dr. Shay went over my genetic testing in detail. He ran five genetic panels that gave me clear insight into why I have the health struggles I have, and reviewed them in detail. And the best part? He shared a ton of knowledge bombs during this episode that I know you'll want to hear!If you haven't listened to episode #65, How Do Your Genes Affect Your Health, with Dr. Shay, then you should!

In this episode of The Healers Café, Dr. Manon Bolliger, ND, chats with Dr Sam Shay, Certified Practitioner for the Institute for Functional Medicine and the Kalish Institute for Functional Medicine For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/dr-dam-shay   Highlights from today's episode include: Dr. Sam Shay  Back in 2015, like actually, I think after 2014, when I actually started doing testing, and then I went more and more towards functional medicine as an entire study and field, developed a model called the Ten Pillars of Health, which is the primary model in which I work with clients because I found that including for myself, there are 10 major pillars of health. And people who struggle chronically, including me, have a minimum seven out of 10 pillars crumbling, and it explains why people who struggled for years and years and years, that after trying protocols, products, practitioners, they get kind of marginal, temporary, or unpredictable results. Because if you sit on seven tacks and you remove three technically you're healthier, but you don't feel any better. Dr. Sam Shay  So brain, bowel, body, burst exercise, I find a B for that. So that's what I found: biotoxins bio-nutrients, breakfast, bothers, bugs, and bedtime. So I feel it's a pretty complete list and people had the seven out of ten. I also found four of those pillars could be sledgehammered. The body, car accident violence, or sports injuries, or that's a sledgehammer event which can knock out and then biotoxins can be a sledgehammer and a massive toxic exposure. The bothers can be sledgehammers if someone dies, a divorce a lawsuit, the firing of a job. Dr. Sam Shay  This is not about variants, it is about duplicates. So there's a three-dimensionality to genetics that most people don't know. It's the copy numbers. It's not just merely if you're red, yellow, green dot, it's how many duplicates of a certain genes matter. And that's the three-dimensionality that I really don't see discussed anywhere else. And so there's a few very meaningful things that can be done with that particular bit of technology.   About Dr. Sam Shay  Dr. Sam Shay, DC helps Biohackers, entrepreneurs, mom-preneurs, and service professionals increase their energy, resilience, and creativity, so they can create and sustain a great business to create more personal freedom.
