If everything you do is labeled a symptom of bipolar disorder, do you ever get to be yourself? In this episode, Gabe Howard (who lives with bipolar) and board certified psychiatrist Dr. Nicole Washington tackle one of the most frustrating — and rarely discussed — realities of living with bipolar disorder: when regular human behavior gets pathologized by friends, family, and even well-meaning supporters.Want to watch TV the whole weekend? Suddenly it's “depression.”Excited about a new idea or passion? You're being “grandiose.”Stumble over your words or get animated in conversation? Sounds like “mania.”Gabe shares deeply personal stories about having his ideas dismissed, his ambitions questioned, and his successes doubted, not by strangers, but by the people who loved him most. Dr. Nicole explains why loved ones become hypervigilant, how fear and trauma shape their reactions, and where concern crosses the line into harm. Listen and Learn: learn how to tell the difference between bipolar symptoms and typical human behavior understand why loved ones become hyper-alert and how fear drives their reactions how to have hard conversations without losing your support system why community and peer support matter when loved ones can't let go of fear This episode isn't about denying bipolar symptoms; it's about reclaiming your identity beyond the diagnosis. Because people with bipolar disorder deserve full lives, real dreams, and the freedom to be annoying, excited, ambitious, and human — just like everyone else. Cold Open Transcript: Gabe Howard: I don't think we're allowed to have these thoughts. Let's say that I was a person that did not live with bipolar disorder. And I came up with the pie-in-the-sky idea. The conversation is negative, but it also sort of moves forward. People with bipolar disorder don't get that. We just get shut down immediately, told that this is a symptom of our illness and that we need to cease this line of communication. And so they withdraw all that help, they withdraw all that information, and they leave us to fend for ourselves. Which actually puts us in a worse position.

Can your vision be driving your headaches, dizziness, or brain fog—even if you have 20/20 eyesight?In this episode of The Headache Doctor Podcast, Dr. Taves sits down with neuro-optometrist Dr. Michael Saxerud to explore how the brain processes vision and why visual dysfunction is often an overlooked root cause of headaches and migraines.They break down the difference between eyesight and brain-based vision, and how misalignment between the eyes, vestibular system, and neck can create symptoms like:Headaches and migrainesLight sensitivityDizziness and nauseaBrain fogPoor balance or clumsinessReading fatigue and difficulty concentratingDr. Saxerud explains how tools like yoked prism lenses, peripheral occlusion (tape on glasses), and syntonic light therapy help recalibrate the brain's sense of “self in space,” reducing stress on the nervous system and improving functionIf you've been told your eyes are “fine” but you still struggle with headaches or visual discomfort, this episode will open your eyes to a powerful, non-medication approach to relief.Novera: Headache Center

A doctors' union says a neurologist shortage is the perfect case study in what's going wrong across our health system. Association of Salaried Medical Specialists executive director Sarah Dalton spoke to Corin Dann.

In dieser Folge zu Gast: Prof. Dr. Jörg Baberowski – Historiker, Publizist und scharfer Kritiker des gegenwärtigen politischen Diskurses in Deutschland. Wir sprechen über sein Buch „Am Volk vorbei- Zur Krise der liberalen Demokratie“. Er spricht über die schleichende Krise der liberalen Demokratie, die wachsende Macht von Eliten und Institutionen – und darüber, was passiert, wenn Menschen das Gefühl verlieren, Teil des politischen Prozesses zu sein. Was passiert, wenn Streit nicht mehr als demokratische Stärke gilt, sondern als Gefahr? Wenn politische Korrektheit zu Denkverboten führt – und Bürger sich abwenden, weil sie sich nicht mehr vertreten fühlen? In diesem Gespräch geht es nicht um einfache Antworten, sondern um klare Analysen, unbequeme Wahrheiten – und die Frage: Was braucht eine Demokratie wirklich, um lebendig zu bleiben? In dieser Folge erfährst du: • Warum Baberowski sagt: „Demokratie lebt nicht vom Konsens, sondern vom Streit.“ • Welche Rolle die EU spielt – und warum sie für viele zur Projektionsfläche geworden ist • Wieso Populismus kein Problem, sondern ein Symptom ist • Welche Gefahren von der Entmachtung des Parlaments und der Machtverschiebung zu „Experten-Gremien“ ausgehen • Warum laut Baberowski nicht Gesetze, sondern gemeinsame Institutionen und kulturelle Bindung eine Gesellschaft zusammenhalten • Und was das alles mit der Zukunft unserer Kinder zu tun hat Schlüsselbegriffe: Demokratiekrise, Populismus, EU-Kritik, politische Eliten, Repräsentation, Streitkultur, offene Gesellschaft #Demokratie #Politikverdruss #Populismus #JörgBaberowski #OffeneGesellschaft #Debattenkultur #EU #GesellschaftimWandel Links: Buch von Jörg: Support auf Steady: https://steady.page/de/inspirierend-anders/about Zur Homepage: https://inspirierendanders.com Dein eigener Podcast: https://bakuba.eu

Dust Mites, Eczema and Allergies: An Overlooked Trigger in KidsThis week on the Natural Super Kids Podcast, we're diving into one of the most commonly overlooked triggers when it comes to eczema and allergies in children: dust mites.Many families focus heavily on food triggers like dairy or gluten, and while those can absolutely play a role, environmental allergens are often quietly contributing in the background. Because dust mites are present all year round not just seasonally like pollens, they can be harder to identify as a cause of ongoing symptoms.In this episode, we unpack how dust mites may be affecting your child's skin, sinuses, and respiratory system and why simply changing diet may not be enough if environmental exposure hasn't been addressed.In this episode, we explore:The signs that dust mites may be contributing to eczema and allergy symptoms especially when symptoms flare overnight or in the morningWhy dust mites can trigger skin, sinus, and respiratory issues year-roundPractical, manageable steps you can take at home to reduce exposureWhy dust mites aren't the root cause (only a trigger) and how immune regulation, gut health, and skin barrier function play a bigger role in long-term improvement

What’s Trending: The Supreme Court has ruled that the tariffs imposed by the Trump Admin were not legal and some conservatives think this is not as bad as you think. Yet again, copper thefts continue to hurt the light rail system, causing one light rail line to be out of commission. There is a new type of flu, flu D. This may be infecting humans without showing any symptoms. // There is an adorable monkey that Jason has come to like in Japan, the monkey was abandoned by his mother and is rejected by other monkeys in the zoo, so the zookeepers gave him a large monkey doll. UFC fighter Sean Strickland is some hot water after he made some sexist comments about the upcoming Rousey vs Carano fight. // Chris Sullivan joins the show to talk about the next round of slowdowns people can expect when driving through Seattle and the surrounding areas. He also touches on the gas prices that are much cheaper right across the state border. 

In this week's Frankly, Nate looks at how aggregate human behavior changes as groups scale from small tribes to large and complex societies. He uses the framing of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde throughout the episode to illustrate how traits that once helped small groups survive can serve to destabilize complex societies when expanded globally. Rather than a moral failing of the human species, he frames the more-than-human predicament as a predictable outcome that emerges when human instincts operate at large scales. Nate also walks through the layers that make up the reality we experience. He starts with the major symptoms that increasingly draw our attention today like global heating, biodiversity loss, and geopolitical tensions. He then emphasizes that these surface problems are driven by recurring systemic patterns, which are kept in place by society-scale driving forces. The episode closes by asking the audience to reflect on what responsibility and agency look like in a world where powerful incentives shape collective outcomes. Where do we see societal thresholds when scale removes the natural limits that once kept us in balance? How can we be aware of reinforcing deeper societal forces while trying to solve for symptoms? And if our instincts helped us survive in the past, what might a system that works to balance human nature and biophysical reality look like?

In this episode of Transmissible: A Public Health Podcast, we examine the science and the headlines behind Nipah virus, one of the world's most lethal emerging zoonotic diseases. With case fatality rates reported as high as 75% and periodic outbreaks in South and Southeast Asia, NiV often generates alarming media coverage and pandemic speculation.

Most symptoms we're dealing with as active women and runners aren't random at all, but are instead clues our body is trying to give us.In this episode, Louise, a multi-award-winning women's integrative health practitioner, shares three powerful lessons from her own health journey and client experiences that every woman should know, especially during perimenopause. She explains how hormone shifts can impact everything from medical testing accuracy to inflammation, fat loss resistance, stress sensitivity, and even unexpected symptoms like canker sores. One key insight is the importance of timing medical screenings, such as breast MRIs, with your menstrual cycle to improve accuracy. Another is the complex relationship between estrogen, histamine, and hormone replacement therapy, and how individual genetics can influence reactions.Louise also highlights how stress, calorie restriction, and hormonal fluctuations can trigger symptoms that seem unrelated, and offers practical strategies to manage acute issues while still addressing root causes like gut health and hormone balance.This episode is a reminder that women's health is highly individualized. Understanding your unique physiology, tracking patterns, and using targeted strategies can help you feel more in control, improve performance, and support long-term health through every stage of life.Explore my "All About Gut Health" and other masterclasses here: https://www.breakingthroughwellness.com/store Link to my FullScript where you can see curated best supplement picks and save 20%: https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/breakingthroughwellness/store-start Learn and level up with my free nutrition guide and award-winning Badass Breakthrough Academy to thrive through perimenopause with less stress: https://www.breakingthroughwellness.com/Take advantage of our podcast listener discount and save 20% off all of Kion's science-backed clean products.

In this episode, I'm sharing something deeply personal — my recent move, my allergy journey, and how I'm continuing to lean into the mind-body (TMS) lens when symptoms flare up.If you've ever felt like your symptoms don't fully “make sense” — reacting one day but not the next, feeling worse in a “safe” place than a moldy one — this conversation will resonate.I walk you through how I'm choosing to see my allergies as TMS (mind-body symptoms), what that actually looks like in real time, and how I'm holding the experience lightly instead of reacting with fear.We also dive into coaching around:Feeling stuck in low-carb purgatoryFear around tracking and food controlResistance to getting a ketone monitorDigestive struggles while increasing fatGallbladder support without pushing detox too hardWhy ketosis can feel restrictive — but actually create freedomThe nervous system side of metabolic healingBook a call with me to learn more about the program: https://calendly.com/daniellehamiltonhealth/discoverycall Enroll today! https://dhhealth.showitpreview.com/blood-sugar-mastery STAY IN TOUCH WITH ME:

They unpack common root causes behind headaches, brain fog, fatigue, hormone issues, and histamine imbalance, plus why so many people are told “your labs look normal” while still feeling awful.They also explore how mold exposure can affect different people in the same home in completely different ways, why fixing the environment is often step one, and how detox should start with foundational pathways like digestion, hydration, sweating, and lymphatic support.

Hey, Heal Squad! What happens when your body literally forces you to slow down? Sometimes it shows up as a cold… sometimes a diagnosis… and sometimes something much bigger. That's exactly what happened to Kerrie Lee Brown, Editor-in-Chief of SUCCESS Magazine and now a passionate heart-health advocate. In honor of Heart Health Month, Kerrie shares the story of the heart event that changed everything at just 39 years old. She was at the peak of her career, juggling life and family, and brushing off subtle symptoms she now realizes were serious warning signs.In this episode, you'll learn what those early signs looked like (and why they're often different in women), plus the 10 signals your body may be asking you to slow down. More importantly, we talk about why doing more isn't always sustainable,  and how learning to say no, protecting your energy, and removing constant urgency can actually support long-term health and healing. If nothing else, let this conversation be your reminder to start listening to your body sooner. HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS:  Your body warns you long before a crisis: Symptoms like fatigue, breathlessness, headaches, and unusual pain aren't “normal busy life” they're early signals asking you to pay attention. Burnout isn't strength, it's stress accumulating: High achievers often push through(out of guilt or productivity pressure), but ignoring limits doesn't build resilience, it builds risk. Prevention lives in daily habits and boundaries: Regulating stress, resting without guilt, and protecting your energy can change your health trajectory more than powering through ever will.

In this episode, we talk about one of the most confusing and discouraging moments for parents raising a child with OCD, when things seem to get worse right as you start doing the right things.Many parents interpret a sudden spike in distress, anger, or compulsions as a sign that therapy is not working. But often, this increase in symptoms is actually a sign that OCD feels threatened. When OCD accommodations are reduced or exposures begin, OCD does not quietly step aside, it escalates. This episode explains why that happens and what it means for your child's recovery.You will learn what an extinction burst looks like in real life, how to tell the difference between a true setback and a growth spike, and why your child may appear more dysregulated even though they are building resilience. We also talk about the most common mistakes parents make during this phase, like backing off boundaries too quickly or returning to reassurance out of fear, and how those well-intended responses can accidentally strengthen OCD.Most importantly, this episode focuses on how to stay grounded as a parent when your child is struggling more. We cover what supportive responses sound like, how to emotionally hold your child without feeding OCD, and how to keep your long-term goals in mind when short-term distress shows up.If you have ever thought, “We were doing better, why is this suddenly worse?” this episode will help you understand what is really happening and how to stay the course with confidence and compassion.Video: OCD is Like an Octopus⚠️ Grab any courses you have wanted before our pricing goes up on March 1, 2026 at AT Parenting Survival School***This podcast episode is sponsored by NOCD.

With February being heart health month you may be thinking more about your specific signs or symptoms you may have been feeling. Here's the truth about the heart... Heart‑related symptoms often show up vaguely at first. Subtle palpitations during a meeting or increased heartrate at night when the house finally goes quiet and you are laying down trying to fall asleep. So you do what you know to do... make an appointment and share your concerns. Tests come back normal. Labs look fine. Yet the symptoms remain. This disconnect leaves many high‑achieving women anxious, confused, and questioning their body. From a holistic functional perspective, this is rarely a true heart failure issue...it's a stress‑driven physiology issue. Your stress may not be going away any time soon but you can help your body adapt better to the stress you are living through.  Stress is the root cause of your heart giving you the symptoms and signs it is giving you. Subtly at first and then more often as your body ramps up communication... aka starts yelling at you.  Bottom line, your body needs to feel safe to heal and recover especially from stress related fatigue conditions.  I pray this episode blesses you!

Did you have a C-section and now notice spotting that won't quit? Are you dealing with pelvic pain, confusing symptoms, or trouble getting pregnant, and wondering if they're connected? Has anyone ever mentioned the word isthmocele to you… or is this the first time you're hearing it? In this episode of Brave & Curious, Dr. Lora Shahine explains a condition many patients are never warned about after a C-section: an isthmocele. She tells us what an isthmocele is, how it can form in a prior C-section scar, and why it can sometimes lead to unexpected bleeding, pain, or fertility challenges.  You'll learn the five key symptoms that may signal an isthmocele, how this condition can affect fertility and future pregnancy plans, and the pros and cons of monitoring versus treating. Dr. Shahine also talks us through when surgical repair may be helpful, and the exact questions to ask your doctor so you can advocate for informed, personalized care.  If you've had a C-section and feel like something isn't quite right, this episode offers knowledge, reassurance, and a clear path forward.

Andrea Jones-Rooy — data scientist, comedian, and fire-eating acrobat — talks candidly about feeling like a failure even when all evidence points to the contrary. With sharp humor and vulnerability, she describes having “no self-esteem” (not low — none), limited willpower, and a reliance on fear and external pressure to get things done.Andrea, who hosts the podcast Behind the Data, gives herself very little grace. She remains skeptical of her ADHD diagnosis. But one ADHD challenge feels impossible to dismiss: time blindness. Together, Andrea and Laura explore what it means to be present — and why that presence often comes more easily at work or on stage, where the stakes feel high, than with the people we love most.For more on this topicRead: ADHD and time blindnessListen: Behind the Data podcastFor a transcript and more resources, visit ADHD Aha! on Understood.org.

If you want to get leaner and live longer check out https://milliondollarbodylabs.com Is your healthy routine feeding hidden infections that cause brain fog and bloating? Why do most probiotics fail to fix a damaged gut? I talk with Dr. Michael Biamonte about Candida and dysbiosis. He explains how he used engineering to reverse engineer illness. We discuss how Candida mutates to survive and why rotating herbs every four days stops the cycle. He shares why iron and vitamin D feed infections. We cover the link between gut issues and autoimmune conditions. He details how biocybernetics identifies imbalances. He highlights the need to clear toxins before adding probiotics. We explore how to find the cause of health issues instead of covering symptoms with medications. Key Takeaways Rotate different antifungal herbs every four days to prevent Candida from mutating and becoming drug-resistant. Antifungals create oxidative stress, so taking antioxidants like Vitamin A or CoQ10 during treatment can stop them from working. Lower the Candida load before taking probiotics because the fungus repels bacteria through polarity. Candida needs iron and Vitamin D to survive, so taking these supplements during an active infection may feed the fungus. Dysbiosis blocks detoxification pathways, making it difficult for cleanses to work until the biome is corrected. Leaky gut syndrome allows toxins and proteins to enter the bloodstream, which triggers most autoimmune conditions. Biocybernetics uses blood and urine tests to analyze physiological self-regulation and find imbalances before they become diseases. Symptoms like brain fog and bloating often follow a specific progression from digestion issues to memory loss and rashes. "You don't have a drug deficiency"; medications typically mask symptoms rather than fixing the underlying imbalance.

Have you ever heard of inositol? Could you be deficient and not even realize it? If you're struggling with blood sugar swings, irregular cycles, anxiety, or 2am wake-ups, could this overlooked compound be a missing piece? While magnesium, B vitamins, and electrolytes dominate most wellness conversations, myo-inositol plays a critical role in insulin signaling, ovarian function, and neurotransmitter balance, acting as an intracellular messenger that helps your cells properly respond to hormonal cues. This episode unpacks what myo-inositol actually is, how it functions in the body, and what the research shows in areas like PCOS, insulin resistance, fertility, mood disorders, and sleep. It also covers therapeutic dosing, food sources, and how to use supplementation strategically for clinical outcomes. Whether you're navigating hormone imbalance, metabolic dysfunction, or nervous system dysregulation, this conversation takes a deeper look at why myo-inositol deserves far more attention in root-cause medicine.

Menopause can feel confusing — but perimenopause can be even more frustrating because so many women are told, "You're fine," while they feel anything but fine. In this episode of Living Life Naturally, Lynne sits down with Denise Stegall — founder of Healthy Living with Denise, international best-selling author of Healthy Living, Happy Life, and widely known as the Menopause Mentor. Denise shares what sparked her own deep dive into perimenopause support after experiencing unexplained symptoms in her late 30s — and why one of the most powerful first steps is also the simplest: track your symptoms. You'll learn how understanding hormone fluctuations can help you communicate more effectively with your provider, advocate for yourself, and make supportive changes without feeling overwhelmed. This conversation also dives into the "midlife musts" Denise teaches women every day — including strength training, mobility and flexibility work, and why bone density and prevention matter so much after menopause. Denise brings a warm, no-nonsense voice to a topic that's often brushed aside — and helps reframe this season as one where you can get clear, get proactive, and feel more like yourself again. In this episode, we cover: Denise's story: symptoms at 37 and what led her into menopause wellness What perimenopause really is (and why it's missed so often) Why a simple symptom list changes your doctor conversations Hormone basics: estrogen, progesterone, cortisol — and how they interact Finding the right support: menopause-informed providers + holistic practitioners Post-menopause prevention: bone density, muscle building, and heart health Why strength + mobility matter so much in midlife Supplement common sense: quality, reputable sourcing, and what to ask first Denise's approach to nutrition, decisions, and personal accountability Free Resource from Denise Stegall: The Nervous System Reset (3-day reset) https://menopausementormn.com/nervous-system-reset Connect with Denise: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MenopauseMentorMN Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/menopausementormn/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@menopausementormn LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/menopausementormn/ Connect with Lynne: Website: https://holistic-healthandwellness.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/holistichealthandwellnessllc Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/energized.healthy.women Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lynnewadsworth LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lynnewadsworth If you want a gentle chat about next steps, schedule time with me here: https://calendly.com/lynnewadsworth/30min Free Resources from Lynne: 5 Essential Steps for Flourishing in Menopause: https://holistic-healthandwellness.com/flourish-in-midlife/ Midlife Morning Menu (freebie): https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/8q1mf8y6z9mqhys39ep4r/Midlife-Morning-Menu.pdf Did you enjoy the podcast?

In this episode, Lisa sits down with registered nurse and endometriosis advocate Jenneh Rishe to explore her experience with diaphragmatic endometriosis — a form of the disease that presented with chest pain, shortness of breath, and right upper abdominal pain rather than the classic pelvic symptoms most practitioners associate with endo. Jenneh shares how years of hormonal suppression, including being prescribed the pill on top of an existing IUD, delayed her path to a confirmed diagnosis. This episode underscores the importance of specialist care, early diagnosis, and a multidisciplinary approach to endometriosis treatment.

In this special episode, host Peter Bauman (Le Random's editor in chief) speaks with Kayvon Tehranian (CEO and co-founder of Foundation and Rodeo) and Sebastian Sanchez (formerly Christie's Manager of Digital Art Sales, now independent advisor and curator) about the structural challenges of the digital art market following the 2021 NFT boom.They discuss Foundation's recent sale to Blackdove and how Christie's, Sotheby's, and Rodeo have had to dissolve departments or shut down entirely because growth models built on crypto speculation proved unsustainable. The conversation explores where growth actually stalled and why none of the business models worked. Tehranian and Sanchez discuss what their organizations achieved, what can endure, and the need to rebuild from scratch.In the end, this conversation moves into the lofty topics of digital art becoming independent of volatile crypto cycles, moving into physical displays, and developing self-sufficient institutions built through slow, intentional work by committed participants.Chapters

Have you been told you have histamine intolerance… so now you're cutting out everything—leftovers, fermented foods, bone broth, even avocado—because you read they're histamine high foods… and you're still reacting? Or maybe you don't have an “official” diagnosis… but you've got classic histamine intolerance symptoms like anxiety, reflux, bloating, eczema, dizziness, insomnia, or weird food reactions… and you're wondering if histamine is the problem? Or you've tried all the things to treat high histamine - low histamine diet, histamine intolerance supplements like DAO, even a full-on histamine intolerance treatment plan from another practitione - but you still have histamine symptoms, so you're asking: why won't my histamine calm down? If you said “yes” to any of these questions, then this episode is for you. Today we're continuing the Real Root Cause Series—where I take conditions that get treated like the root cause… and I show you what's actually driving them. Because knowing a fake root cause vs. a real root cause is the difference between managing symptoms forever… or finally getting your life back. Today's topic is: histamine. In this episode, I'm breaking down:What histamine intolerance really is The most common histamine intolerance symptoms you're probably not connecting to histamineWhy a low histamine diet can become a cyclical trap that never heals youThe 6 real root causes that keep histamine high (even when you “eat perfectly”)And how to choose the right testing and support to find and reverse those root causes And one more thing—because I'm doing something fun for this whole series: visuals. If you're a visual learner and want the flow chart that goes with this episode, go to betterbellytherapies.com/root and download the graphics. Because when you stop trying to avoid high histamine food like they're your enemy… and start fixing what's making your body unable to handle histamine - that's when you get your life back.

In this episode of the She Talks Health podcast, I'm continuing with the second part of my personal journey dealing with mold illness. In the last episode, we covered how I realized I had been exposed to mold, the tests I did to confirm it, and the symptoms I experienced that led to my discovery.This week, I revisit the onset of my symptoms, ranging from anxiety and insomnia, fatigue, sleep problems, gut issues, and more, which appeared suddenly after years of being in remission from Hashimoto's and other health problems. I also recount the initial steps I took, including HTMA and mineral balancing, before diving into the complexities revealed by my thyroid tests, which showed alarmingly high antibody levels.We'll dig into the results of my MARCoNS test, which demonstrated the presence of biofilms and antibiotic-resistant bacteria in my nasal passages, contributing to my chronic inflammation and immune challenges. Additionally, I discuss the critical insights gained from genetic testing with Dr. Erica Gray of Toolbox Genomics, which highlighted specific detox pathways that needed support in my body based on my genetics. This new information helped me formulate a modified and more effective detox plan tailored to my genetic needs, including liver support, multiple binders, and glutathione supplementation.While this new protocol has offered hope, it has not been without setbacks, and I'm committed to sharing my detailed experiences and the adjustments I've made along the way in upcoming episodes. Join me as I continue to document this intricate journey, sharing my successes and challenges throughout this whole mold detox process.If you're wrestling with similar health issues, or know someone who is, I hope my story provides you with practical steps and encouragement to pursue effective detoxification and regain control over your health.Disclaimer: This information is being provided to you for educational and informational purposes only.

In this episode, Dr. Stephen Cabral joins Doug Larson and Dr. Mike Lane to break down how he went from a decade-long "idiopathic illness" in his teens to building one of the biggest health education platforms in the space, including more than 3,600 daily podcast episodes. Cabral shares the turning points in his own recovery: years of heavy antibiotic exposure, chronic stress, gut dysbiosis (candida, H. pylori, SIBO), and even mercury accumulation from frequent tuna intake. That personal case study becomes the foundation for how he now thinks about root-cause medicine versus symptom suppression, and why conventional care often waits until labs fall out of range before acting. The conversation dives into Cabral's framework for how chronic issues typically develop: nervous system stress leads to endocrine disruption, which then cascades into immune dysfunction, often amplified by gut-driven inflammation. He explains a clear process-of-elimination approach to gut health, why bile flow and motility have become increasingly important as the science has evolved, and how stress management is often the missing link. Cabral also breaks down why resonance breathing can be one of the fastest ways to shift physiology, how he uses wearables like Oura and HRV tools without overwhelming clients, and why the best plan is always the one someone will actually follow. Finally, the group zooms out to the future of health and longevity. They discuss biological age testing, emerging longevity research, and the realities of training and recovery as you get older. Cabral shares how his practice balances structured lab testing, repeatable protocols, and ongoing accountability so clients don't just get a plan, but learn how to sustain results long term.

Welcome to Part 1 of our special bone health mini-series, featuring Dr. Jocelyn Wittstein, Dr. Jessica Shepherd, personal trainer Debra Atkinson, and PhD researcher Dr. Darren Candow. In this episode, we discuss the impact of contraceptive use on bone health, especially in young women, and explore how underfueling and relative energy deficiency can contribute to serious bone health issues early in life. We highlight the strong connection between thyroid health and bone health, and clarify how frequently, how much, and how intensely we should strength train to best support our bones. We examine the potential long-term benefits of vibration plates, address concerns with current osteoporosis screening guidelines, and explain why assessing women's bone health earlier is crucial. Finally, we review the latest research on creatine monohydrate and its promising impact on bone health. I sincerely hope you enjoy Part 1 of this mini-series, which sets the stage for understanding lifelong bone health. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: How underfueling, overtraining, and oral contraceptives can limit bone development  The value of strength training and impact-based exercise for preserving bone density, supporting metabolic health, and reducing fracture risk How even a few minutes of impact exercise per day can stimulate bone strength  How vibration plates can complement strength and impact training Why declining estrogen during perimenopause and menopause increases the risk of osteoporosis and fractures as women age The benefits of weight training, resistance exercises, Pilates, and water aerobics for improving bone density and maintaining muscle strength How creatine supplementation combined with resistance training or structured exercise can help preserve bone strength in postmenopausal women How creatine alone, without physical activity, shows no meaningful benefit Connect with Cynthia Thurlow   Follow on X, Instagram & LinkedIn Check out Cynthia's website Submit your questions to support@cynthiathurlow.com Join other like-minded women in a supportive, nurturing community: The Midlife Pause/Cynthia Thurlow  Cynthia's Menopause Gut Book is on presale now!

If you've ever been told that you need to "heal the root" of your eating disorder, but no one ever really explained what that actually means, this episode is for you. Maybe you've done the meal plans. The behavior tracking. The symptom management. And yet… something still feels unresolved. Fragile. Like the eating disorder quiets down for a while, only to resurface later in a different form. In this episode, we slow the conversation way down and talk honestly about unmet childhood needs. Not as a way to blame parents, caregivers, or anyone else, but as a way to finally understand why your eating disorder made sense in the first place. Tweetable Quotes "Relapse isn't the end of recovery. It's a moment inside of it." - Rachelle Heinemann "Eating disorders don't just happen. They happen within the context of the rest of your life." - Rachelle Heinemann "When emotional needs aren't consistently met, we still develop strategies internally to help us survive." - Rachelle Heinemann "You can stop the behaviors temporarily, but if the underlying emotional needs remain unmet, something else will pop up." - Rachelle Heinemann "Healing means giving yourself now what you didn't get then." - Rachelle Heinemann "Part of the process in therapy is creating a pause between the urge and the behavior." - Rachelle Heinemann "Your behaviors make sense in the context that you grew up in." - Rachelle Heinemann Resources Group Training for Clinicians, led by Jack Heinemann.
