I honestly cannot believe I'm sitting here recording this episode as a mom. In this episode, I'm sharing the full story of Cai's birth from start to finish. The anxiety leading up to labor, the moment the hospital told me not to come because they were at capacity, the induction process, contractions, getting the epidural, and the unexpected turn that led to an emergency C-section. This experience changed my perspective on birth, control, and motherhood in ways I never could have predicted. After going through IVF and everything it took to get pregnant, I thought I had an idea of how birth would go. But labor has a way of reminding you that some things are simply out of your control. I talk about the mental side of preparing for labor, the pain and intensity of contractions, the moment I realized something wasn't right, and the emotional second I heard Cai cry for the first time. Even though things didn't go according to my original plan, the moment I saw him made every single part of the experience worth it. If you're pregnant, thinking about becoming a mom, or just curious about what birth is actually like, this episode is the full, honest story. _____ Leave Me a Message -⁠ click here!⁠ For Mari's Instagram⁠ click here!⁠ For Pursuit of Wellness Podcast's Instagram⁠ click here!⁠ For Mari's Newsletter⁠ click here!⁠ For Mari's TikTok⁠ click here!

America spends nearly double what the fourth-ranked country spends on healthcare per capita — and still ranks among the worst in outcomes. So what exactly are we paying for? In this episode of the Experiencing Healthcare Podcast, Jamie Preston and Your Health CEO Matt Staub examine what happens when healthcare gets treated like gasoline: something people expect to be available, can't easily compare on quality, and ultimately choose based on price or convenience. When brand and price stop mattering, the only differentiator left is how patients are made to feel — and whether they trust the person across from them enough to actually change. What you'll hear in this episode: Why Matt ranks service above outcomes and access — and the patient story that changed how he thinks about both The "Chick-fil-A problem": how your healthcare experience is now being compared to your best service experience anywhere, not just the clinic down the street What provider burnout really looks like when a clinician closes their notes at 11pm wondering if their patient listened How insurance billing creates distrust that bleeds directly into the patient-provider relationship — and what healthcare organizations can do about it Why the most caring thing a doctor can do sometimes feels like the worst customer service in the room If you've ever felt like a number in a waiting room — or if you've ever been the one trying to help someone who wouldn't listen — this conversation will stay with you.

Welcome! and Thank you for listening.  Don't fall off your exercise ball but we are going to talk low carb and keto! Last week I completed the Long Play 33 with 35 miles- bonus miles as Andy, the race director, would say.  Based on a recently published study on nutrition during endurance events, I decided to decrease my glucose intake and add Ketone IQ shots to the mix.   I have a history of bonking in the later parts of a race.  Sometimes, it is more like the early part.  My stomach no longer accepts gels, I feel sluggish, and have assumed it was my mental attitude and the need for more fuel.   I figured I was dehydrated leading to a decrease in blood to the gut and inability to digest my intake resulting muscle glycogen depletion.  As soon as I started taking gels, I became dependent on them.  Once, I could not tolerate them, I was headed for low energy and the need to walk or quit.   My new hypothesis is that it is my brain's demand for fuel and my bloodstream dip in glucose that causes the bonk.  Wild swings in glucose and insulin followed by a decrease in my ability to burn fat as fuel.  So I tried a few new things this race and had a pleasant surprise.  I had another pleasant surprise with my follow up lipid and DHA levels.  Certainly, a tell all episode.   Thanks for listening.  Website: doctordulaney.com Email me at Jami@doctordulaney.com Cookbook: amzn.to/4onHVe4 Ebook: doctordulaney.com/.powerful-plates-ebook/?mc_cid-cc24587 Water distillers: https://mypurewater.com/?sld=jdulaney discount code: cleanwaterforsophie https://academic.oup.com/edrv/article/47/2/191/8432248    

In this episode of Fishing Without Bait, Jim welcomes back returning guest Emily — whose recovery journey inspired many listeners in her previous appearance. This time, she shares a new chapter marked not by addiction, but by maternal instinct, fear, and extraordinary courage. Emily describes how she sensed something was wrong with her healthy two-year-old daughter weeks before doctors confirmed it. Despite multiple visits and reassurances that it was “just a virus,” her body told her otherwise. The anxiety built until one terrifying afternoon when her daughter collapsed in her arms. From calling 911, to the helicopter ride to Children's Hospital, to hearing the words “open heart surgery,” Emily walks us through the moment-by-moment unfolding of crisis. She reflects on fear, being unheard, trust in medical professionals, and the power of intuition. This is Part 1 of a deeply moving story about resilience, advocacy, recovery, and the spiritual strength that carried her through.

Send a textWhat if the body already knows how to heal itself — and we've simply forgotten how to listen?In this fascinating episode of Self Reflection Podcast, host Lira Ndifon sits down with Kevin “Free” Francis, a former professional basketball player turned wellness practitioner, to explore the hidden intelligence of the human body.After spending years playing professional basketball across the world — including China, Finland, Argentina, and Saudi Arabia — Kevin's journey eventually led him somewhere unexpected: The Gambia in West Africa.There, he began developing a holistic system called G God Body, a philosophy and practice centered around movement, nervous system regulation, and liquid fasting as tools for restoring balance in the body.Drawing from over 14 years of experience in physical therapy and biomechanics, Kevin shares how modern lifestyles often push our bodies into chronic stress, inflammation, and hormonal imbalance — and why the body may be constantly trying to repair itself beneath the surface.But the question becomes:Are we giving it the space to do so?In this episode, we explore:• The difference between digestion and absorption — and why it matters for energy and healing • How stress, hormones, and inflammation are deeply connected • Why many people unknowingly store emotional and physical stress inside the body • The science behind liquid fasting and metabolic reset • How the nervous system regulates healing • Why movement patterns can shape long-term health outcomes • The philosophy behind “adapting instead of coping” in life and wellness • Kevin's experience relocating to Africa and reconnecting with a different way of livingKevin also explains why he believes the body is more than just a physical structure — it is a temple, a system designed with extraordinary intelligence that can recalibrate when given the right environment.This conversation challenges many of the assumptions we hold about health.Instead of constantly pushing harder, working more, and stressing the body further… what if healing begins with slowing down, resetting, and allowing the body to do what it was designed to do?A Moment for Self ReflectionIf your body has been trying to send you signals…Have you been listening?Catchy OutroAt Self Reflection Podcast, we believe that healing, growth, and transformation all begin with one simple step:Pausing long enough to reflect.Each conversation is designed to explore mental health, personal development, and the deeper issues affecting our communities — while helping us reconnect with ourselves.And this episode is a powerful reminder that sometimes the answers we're searching for externally… may already exist within us.Support the showCall to Action: Engage with the Self-Reflection Podcast community!

We Didn't Plan For This… is a new special series from the hosts of How Yoga Changed My Life about navigating life transitions, and unexpected change in real time.After Adrienne's sudden loss of her husband, so many of you reached out with the same words: “I didn't plan for this either.” A diagnosis. A body that changed. A marriage that shifted. A child who is struggling. A dream that fell apart.This first episode sets the tone for the series. We're not rehashing the details of what happened. We're talking about where we are now — and how yoga, breath, and small daily practices can help us keep showing up through grief, parenting, identity shifts, and hard seasons.This is not trauma-informed certification language. It's not five steps to resilience. It's honest conversation about strength, energy, work, friendship, our bodies, and ordinary days that don't look the way we expected.We're not trying to fix anything.We're living it — as it's happening.And at the end of each episode, we'll pause together before stepping back into our day.We didn't plan for this.But we're here.Support the Smith FamilySeveral people have asked how to support our family during this time.

Tune into the newest episode of our Energy Works Podcast, where science meets spirit to help you heal, energize, and thrive. After noticing “time blocking” highlighted in a popular time-management article, Lauren reflects on her ongoing struggle to protect open, unscheduled time. Blaine, who teaches time blocking to entrepreneurs inside the Conscious Business Builders Club, shares why she considers it a proven and surprisingly liberating method.They have some fun discussing what time blocking really is: scheduling everything, including self-care, creative play, and even “free time” to reduce decision fatigue, close mental open loops, and increase focus and follow-through. Blaine explains how intentional structure can quiet the nervous system and support meaningful momentum.But this isn't a productivity pep talk. Lauren and Blaine explore the yin/yang dance between formless creativity and structured output. They dive into the tension between flow and discipline, the importance of protecting personal time, and how alone time fuels creative emergence. This episode offers a grounded, energetic lens on time, inviting you to experiment with flexible structure while honoring the sacred space where inspiration is born.

Nutrition Nugget! Bite-sized bonus episodes offer tips, tricks and approachable science. This week, Jenn is talking about Dunkin's Protein Drinks. Dunkin' has officially jumped on the protein bandwagon and is rolling out a new line of protein drinks that have everyone asking: Are these actually a good source of protein? Jenn went straight to the source, visiting multiple Dunkin' locations, digging into the nutrition facts PDF, and asking the questions most of us never think to ask. What she found might surprise you. On the one hand, Dunkin' uses a real, recognizable dairy-based milk with a clean ingredient list and no added sweeteners or emulsifiers. On the other hand, the protein count may not be quite what the marketing suggests. Jenn also addresses the ingredients that go into your cup beyond that protein milk so that you can decide for yourself if this is a smart, satisfying option or just another trend wrapped in clever branding.

What if the most expensive healthcare decisions aren't made in the boardroom — but in the exam room, when the wrong infection gets treated with the wrong antibiotic? In this episode of the Your Health University, Podcast, Jamie sits down with Madison Browning, a registered nurse in urology at Your Health, to talk about what proper urological care actually looks like, why it matters far beyond the individual patient, and how a strong, collaborative provider team is the difference between a patient thriving and a patient stuck in a revolving door of emergency room visits. What you'll hear in this episode: Why getting a UTI diagnosis right the first time has massive implications for patient health and system costs The role nurse practitioners play in specialized urology care — and why their expertise is often underestimated How the team-based model at Your Health empowers every provider to collaborate and deliver better outcomes The direct connection between outpatient urology care and reduced hospital stays, ER visits, and downstream Medicare and tax costs Madison's genuine gratitude for the team around her — and what it looks like when a healthcare culture actually works If you've ever wondered whether the healthcare system could do better — this episode is proof that it already is, one patient at a time. www.YourHealth.Org

In this episode of The Better Life, Dr. Pinkston welcomes Brett Aldrich, founder of Seed the Spirit, for a deep dive into the 5,000-year-old science of Ayurvedic medicine. As an Ayurvedic healthcare counselor and somatic breathwork teacher, Brett shares how we can move beyond the "corporate model" of contemporary medicine to find a personalized path toward true wellness. The conversation explores how the five elements—earth, water, fire, air, and ether—make up our unique constitutions and how "doshas" (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha) influence everything from our physical health to our emotional temperament. Brett explains that while the world around us may feel chaotic, Ayurveda provides the tools to remain centered and "whole" within that chaos.

Welcome! and Thank you for listening.  It is with sorrow that I pay tribute to Jeff Galloway with a replay of a 2020 episode that we did together.  Jeff passed away this week from complication of a hemorrhagic stroke.   Some people may say that running didn't prolong Jeff Galloway's life or even that running may have made him die earlier.  I would say that Jeff had a wonderful lifespan lifting others up both spiritually and health-wise through his lessons on the run-walk method of distance running.  A life well lived and shared.  I believe the longevity and medical community get caught up  more  with time than meaning or quality.  We will all be better if we can lift others up and be a blessing to others for the time we have on this earth.  Rest in peace my fellow runner.  Thank you for listening.   Website: doctordulaney.com Email with questions at jami@doctordulaney.com Cookbook: amzn.to/4onHVe4 Water Distillers: mypurewater.come?sld-jdulaney  discount code: cleanwaterforsophie

Part 1 of a 2-Part Series: Fertility Over 40Fertility over 40 is becoming more common than ever, but with it comes confusion, fear, and a lot of outdated information.In this episode of Healthy As A Mother, we begin a two-part fertility series focused on conception after age 40. We break down what actually changes with age, what matters most for fertility, and — most importantly — what you can influence.Because chronological age is only one piece of the picture.You'll learn why egg quality matters more than egg count, how lifestyle and metabolic health impact fertility outcomes, and how women can support ovulation, hormone balance, and mitochondrial health as they age. If you've been told your age alone determines your fertility, this episode offers a more nuanced and hopeful perspective.In this episode, we cover:• Why chronological age doesn't equal ovarian health• The real role of egg quality vs. egg count (AMH explained)• How mitochondrial health impacts fertility• Environmental toxins and hidden fertility stressors• Blood sugar balance and metabolic health after 40• Inflammation, oxidative stress, and hormone disruption• Ovulation strength and progesterone production• Short luteal phases and why they matter for implantation• Signs of low progesterone you shouldn't ignore• How lifestyle changes can meaningfully improve fertility outcomes00:00 — Trailer & Podcast Intro03:25 — Episode begins: Fertility over 40 overview05:10 — Chronological age vs ovarian environment21:30 — Egg quality, lifestyle, and metabolic health23:58 — Inflammation, stress & nutrient deficiencies explained24:25 — Progesterone, luteal phase & cycle changes after 4025:10 — Signs of low progesterone to watch for48:43 — IVF myths: why optimization matters first49:12 — Why IVF doesn't bypass egg or sperm quality49:42 — Rethinking fertility decisions after 4050:51 — Fertility as a marker of overall healthFind more from Dr. Leah:Dr. Leah Gordon | InstagramDr. Leah Gordon | WebsiteWomanhood Wellness | WebsiteFind more from Dr. Morgan:Dr. Morgan MacDermott | InstagramDr. Morgan MacDermott | WebsiteUse code HEALTHYMOTHER and save 10% at FondUse code HEALTHYMOTHER and save 15% at RedmondFor 20% off your first order at Needed, use code HEALTHYMOTHERSave $260 at Lumebox, use code HEALTHYASAMOTHER

Let's have an honest conversation about sugar. Not the dramatic "never touch it again" version. Not the fluffy "everything in moderation" script that keeps you stuck year after year. Just truth. In this episode of the Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast, Jamie Belz, FNTP, MHC, breaks down what's really happening when you say, "I just need something sweet at night." A sweet tooth is not a personality trait. It is a neurological and metabolic pattern. And that is good news, because patterns can be retrained. Jamie walks you through: The 0 to 90 minute biochemical timeline of a sugar hit How dopamine spikes create urgency, not satisfaction Why crashes feel like irritability, anxiety, fogginess, and more cravings How insulin resistance, poor sleep, stress, and nutrient deficiencies intensify the cycle How modern candy is engineered to override your nervous system How childhood reward wiring shapes adult cravings Why artificial sweeteners and "zero sugar" swaps keep the addiction loop alive What taste bud rehabilitation actually looks like The NTA-inspired "avoid, okay, better, best" framework for treats Practical nutrient-dense dessert ideas that nourish rather than hijack your brain This is about empowerment to break free from the vicious "blood sugar rollercoaster." Sugar lights up the same reward pathways as addictive substances. That is neuroscience, not exaggeration. But your body is adaptable. When you lower your sweetness threshold, fruit tastes sweeter, dark chocolate becomes satisfying, and ultra-processed candy starts to feel like too much. If you are ready to reshape your relationship with sugar instead of white-knuckling it, this episode is for you. ____________________ Additional Resources: ⁠Episode 28⁠ – Blood Sugar 101 Episode 29 - Quick Tips for Blood Sugar Regulation Episode 62 - Quick Tips From Your Blood Sugar Bestie  Find a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (NTP): ⁠NTA Practitioner Directory⁠ Work with a practitioner directly through the NTA.

Welcome! and Thank you for listening.  Lp(a) is a genetic marker associated with increased cardiovascular events.  A positive family history is also associated with increase risk.  But how much risk and over what time period.  Families share the same cultures, living environment and often food choices but not always.  Genes don't act alone.  They need the right stimulus or environment to become activated.   There is no one that knows your story better than you.  Yet, one cannot predict their own future with any degree of certainty.  The story always unfolds a little different.  To think a physician can predict ones future is also a bit of a long shot.  Heart disease is the number one killer in America with cancer being number two.  The odds are pretty high that one of those illnesses may cross your door.  The question is which and when.  I believe we are in control of our destiny more than our genes or family history.   How heart disease or other illnesses affect our lives is guided by lifestyle choices and beliefs.  Being healthy is a choice.  Being healthy is a choice.  You just need to BELIEVE.  To understand more take a listen.  Thank you as always.  If you would like help attaining your health goals, check out our website at doctordulaney.com Email me at Jami@doctordulaney.com Lp(a) and risk of cardiovascular disease: https://cdn.jamanetwork.com/ama/content_public/journal/cardiology/0/hoi250076f3_1766513579.95844.png?Expires=1773391267&Signature=UtIeIN2lwyYBtOwRfwxf4FeK-dokS3u3bhcUEL9u3cLdpTWBlp9bQyjL0jc-Gnhz8qdagEMNIpkhSHhx2TwJ8HUHlZ6pQtWEKYAiLtGzMz3vNtRXmRtfXHAba~LXFvT3TMM6smZluqippWMYrBMnojWe1mil6BuLUPyHHQLpliLEctMqPzOJkJnWj5lYil~QHmJHE3Rl7VNU5WMPdC79dD66s9DUl-8--pUiuREuAcAZcj74gOzkPHQekYYynHBXuNVjhzGNe34Z4z21gGE4siE46V~I~ycerWXGG1eVom3xTtxneIlxpDQ2J6HdY3t6F2J9jW3cc4241WRw52NyJA__&Key-Pair-Id=APKAIE5G5CRDK6RD3PGA Plant based wellness cookbook: amzn.to/4onHVe4 Water distillers: mypurewater.come?sld-jdulaney.  discount code: cleanwaterforsophie Believe: Dr Kevin Elko -sports psychologist 

Send us a textWhat if sleep was the most powerful hormone-balancing tool you had—and you didn't need another supplement to access it?In this episode, Gina and Kristin unpack why sleep isn't optional when it comes to hormone health—it's foundational medicine. If you're eating well, exercising, and “doing all the right things” but still struggling with fatigue, stubborn weight, cravings, PMS, or cycle issues, this conversation is for you.We break down the science behind the hormone–sleep connection in a way that actually makes sense, including how poor sleep impacts cortisol, insulin, melatonin, and your hunger hormones. You'll also hear common client patterns we see when sleep is off—like waking between 2–4 a.m., feeling wired but tired, or plateauing despite your best efforts.Most importantly, we reframe sleep as an intentional healing tool, not just more hours in bed. You'll learn why quality matters more than quantity, how circadian rhythm drives hormone balance, and why better sleep starts first thing in the morning—not at bedtime.We wrap with practical, hormone-supportive sleep tips you can start using tonight, plus a simple reflection to help you take action without overwhelm.✨ In this episode, we cover:Why sleep is active hormone therapyHow poor sleep disrupts cortisol, insulin, and appetite regulationSigns your hormones are being impacted by sleep (even if you get 8 hours)The role of circadian rhythm in cycle health, thyroid function, and fertilitySimple shifts that can create big hormonal changes

In this special episode of the Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast, CEO of the Nutritional Therapy Association, Mike Belz, steps into the lead host seat for a powerful, practical conversation with executive coach and high-performance strategist Michael Vasquez, while show host Jamie takes a supportive back seat. Michael shares his real-world journey from alcohol, smoking, and prescription-drug usage to a life built on purpose, discipline, and "thrilling vision," and explains how that transformation led him into coaching, including training through Jay Shetty Coaching (accredited by the Association for Coaching) and deeper work in ontological coaching through the Meta Performance Institute. Together, Mike, Michael, and Jamie unpack why more information is rarely the missing piece in health, habits, and personal growth, and why implementation breaks down even when people "know what to do." You'll learn how a great coach helps reveal blind spots, disrupt limiting beliefs, and build integrity through commitments, especially "broken commitments," which become valuable data for identifying patterns and closing the gap between current reality and future goals. The conversation covers the ontological framework of be–do–have (instead of do–be–have), the role of language in performance (including insights from The Three Laws of Performance), and how identity, shame, and old stories quietly cap what you believe is possible. You'll also hear a timely discussion on modern numbing mechanisms, including alcohol and doom-scrolling, and why true restoration often requires silence, solitude, and intentional inputs. Mike, Michael, and Jamie connect these coaching principles back to whole-person health, relationships, boundaries, and the long game of rewiring habits (with nods to concepts popularized in Atomic Habits). Michael closes by describing who he coaches best, how breakthrough work actually happens over time, and how listeners can connect with him for a vision-driven coaching conversation. If you're an entrepreneur, leader, high performer, or anyone stuck in repetitive cycles, this episode offers a clear roadmap for mindset shifts, behavior change, and sustainable growth, without shame, without perfectionism, and without the illusion that more content will finally fix it.   Connect with Michael: https://www.mvlifecoach.com/ Attend a Nutritional Therapy Association Webinar!

Welcome! and Thank you for listening.  Do this, no, do that.  Coffee is bad.  Coffee is good.  Do these three things.  Take these medications or else.  It is no wonder that people just turn a blind ear and do nothing.  When you finally have hypertension, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer, or dementia, the treatments are aimed only at the symptoms instead of the root cause.  When it comes to pain, people may think that is not such a bad thing because we do have pain medications that work well for short periods of time then cause havoc with side effects, tolerances and addiction.  The best plan of action is to stay healthy through sunlight, diet, and exercise.  I am going to address each of these today and probably every podcast because the list is endless on how you can keep yourself healthy.  In today's episode:  Hormone replacement for women: stay away, I'll tell you why Congestive heart failure: it is not a death sentence and does not have to be treated with a pharmacy of expensive medications. Dementia: prevent it through lifestyle changes now.  Diet matters and plants alone may not do the job.   Exercise: move all the ways and often.  I'll tell you more.

Welcome! and Thank you for listening.   Long Haul Ultra marathon is a 100 mile race at Colt Creek State Park in Florida.  It consists of 6 loops of 16.8 miles.  The runner comes back to the start at each of the loop were there is an open aid station or individual crew access.  Out on the course, there are 3 other times where there are aid stations for snacks and fluids.   The first loop went well but things deteriorated.  What happens when the best laid plans fail? This is the story of Long Haul.  Why do we have to learn the same lessons with a little twist over and over?  Diet and nutrition all sound so simple on paper.  Eat a plant based diet and all will be well.  That works until the questions arise and you find yourself confused with less than perfect options.  One way out is to give up the fight, the other is to learn and grow from mistakes I will share my frustrations, disappointment and growth from this experience.  I will also leave you with some unknowns.   Thanks for listening, For information about our wellness practice: doctordulaney.com Email questions to jami@doctordulaney.com Cookbook: amzn.to/4onHVe4 EBook: doctordulaney.com/.powerful-plates-ebook/?mc_cid-cc24587 Water distillers: mypurewater.come?sld-jdulaney discount code: cleanwaterforsophie

The newest dietary guidelines have officially been released, and for the first time in a long time, the language is shifting toward what is real and truly health-promoting — what the Nutritional Therapy Association has been teaching since 1997. In this episode of The Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast, Jamie Belz breaks down what it means to "eat real food" and shares the NTA's longstanding, scientifically backed, ancestrally aligned, tried-and-true nutrition teachings. Jamie walks through how nutrition messaging became complicated, commercialized, and disconnected from human physiology, and how ultra-processed, hyper-palatable, food-like substances and industrial chemicals found in today's Standard American Diet have been engineered for profit, shelf stability, and addiction rather than nourishment. This episode brings clarity to what "eat real food" actually means in real life.   You'll learn: What the new dietary guidelines say and what they still don't define clearly Why "permitted" or "regulated" does not mean safe or health-promoting How the GRAS system allows industrial chemicals into the food supply Why calories are fuel, while nutrients are information The NTA's clear definition of whole foods and nutrient-dense eating How bio-individuality explains why one diet never works for everyone The difference between macronutrients and micronutrients Why traditional fats support health and industrial seed oils undermine it How digestion, hydration, stress, and food preparation determine nourishment Why alcohol is never neutral when healing is the goal How to read ingredient labels without fear or obsession Jamie also connects the dots between modern food processing, chronic disease, metabolic dysfunction, mental health struggles, and the rising dependence on medications, while offering a grounded, hopeful path forward rooted in education and foundational health principles. This episode isn't about chasing trends or waiting for policy to catch up. It's about understanding nutrition TRUTH. If you're overwhelmed by nutrition advice, confused by labels, or tired of swinging between trends, this episode will help you simplify and reset. Listen now and return to the foundations that have supported real healing long before the guidelines caught up.   Topics Covered: New dietary guidelines explained Whole foods vs ultra-processed foods Nutrient-dense eating Bio-individual nutrition Macronutrients and micronutrients Traditional fats and seed oils Food additives and GRAS Digestion and nutrient absorption Hydration and mineral balance Alcohol and metabolic health Foundations of Health   Other Episodes and Resources Mentioned: "Dehydration Nation" episode Ep 82 - Total Load Theory Ep 81 - Wellness 101 Ep 80 - Digestive Hell Ep 79 - Optimal Digestion Ep 70 - Getting Started with Meal Planning and Eating Healthier Overall Ep 69 - Who Was Dr. Weston A Price?

In this episode of The Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast, host Jamie Belz sits down with Patricia ("Patty") Lemer for a wide-ranging, hope-filled conversation on Total Load Theory, introducing and unpacking many of the topics covered in Patty's recently released book, Total Load Theory: Transforming Lives in Autism, ADHD, LD, SPD, and Mental Health. Patty Lemer is a pioneer and internationally recognized authority on identifying root causes and applying a holistic, systems-based model of care to autism, ADHD, learning differences (LD), sensory processing disorder (SPD), and mental health. She was among the first to apply the term "Total Load Theory" to mental health disorders, an engineering concept describing how the body accumulates an overload of stressors that eventually leads to dysfunction. Patty co-founded one of the first online non-profit organizations offering accessible information to families, helped establish a center for young adults in Kuwait (2012–2014), and has recorded over 100 episodes of her bi-monthly podcast, The Autism Detectives. Her work bridges decades of clinical observation with practical strategies, grounded in the fundamentals taught at the Nutritional Therapy Association (NTA): nutrient-dense diet, digestion, blood sugar regulation, sleep, stress, and movement. These "Foundations of Health" apply to all, not only those with difficult diagnoses. When viewed through a bio-individual lens, each of us can begin to see symptoms of dysfunction dissipate as balance is restored to the body. Together, Jamie and Patty unpack how compounding stressors - from poor sleep and blood sugar swings to environmental toxins, mold exposure, nervous system dysregulation, EMFs, trauma, screen overload, and chronic inflammation - can accumulate until the body reaches a breaking point and symptoms become the dash lights we can't ignore. This episode also explores why sleep may trump nutrition, how a dysregulated nervous system can block healing (even with the "right protocol"), the role of polyvagal theory and vagus nerve regulation, and why detoxification must be gentle, foundational, and consistent - not trendy or extreme. In this episode, you'll learn: What Total Load Theory is and how "compounding stressors" lead to chronic symptoms Why symptoms often show up when the body hits a breaking point How stress includes far more than emotions: sleep debt, toxins, trauma, inflammation, screens, EMFs, and more Patty's perspective on sensory and vision therapies Why sleep hygiene can determine whether the body can heal, especially in kids and teens How nervous system dysregulation (fight/flight) can block progress in nutrition, detox, and therapy Practical starting points: reduce exposure, support elimination, prioritize sleep, and begin one step at a time Why healthy fats matter for brain and nervous system function (myelin, seizures, metabolic psychiatry) How to think like a "health detective" and trace symptoms back to root causes How to access Patty's new AI companion that searches her intellectual property and points listeners to relevant chapters and podcast episodes Resources mentioned in this episode: Patricialemer.com Multi-Media Content Podcast: Patricia Lemer: The Autism Detective Patty's AI companion: ai.patricialemer.com Patty's books: Outsmarting Autism and Total Load Theory: Transforming Lives in Autism, ADHD, LD, SPD, and Mental Health Book Mentioned: The Sensitive Patient's Healing Guide by Dr. Neil Nathan Documenting Hope Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast - Wellness 101 (Help getting started with the Foundations of Health) Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast on Circumcision Attend a Nutritional Therapy Association Webinar!

Welcome! and Thank you for listening.  Happy, Healthy New Year.   How much does it cost to live forever.  There are people out there claiming they can do it for $4 a day all the way to 2 million dollars per year.  But the cost could be way more than dollars.  Some of these folks limit their human interaction to the point of isolation.  Just being plant based is a ticket to the outliers club and can be quite limiting.  Perhaps there is a compromise. I believe that compromise is health span.  What can you do to stay out of the medical establishment  but not compromise being in longevity jail?   I believe it costs very little.  You can go a long way obtaining your food from the grocery store, getting sunlight daily, and exercising in a way to keep strong and cardio fit without fancy equipment, tests or supplements.   The big question is what are you willing to commit to in 2026.  If you would like to shrink your medicine cabinet, waste line and supplement bill, check out our website at doctordulaney.com Email me with questions at jami@doctordulaney.com Cookbook: amzn.to/4onHVe4 EBook: doctordulaney.com/.powerful-plantes-ebook/?mc_cid-cc24587ac Water distillers: mypurewater.come?sld-jdulaney discount code: cleanwaterforsophie

This episode marks the conclusion of our recent Rapid Replay Series of condensed episodes, carefully curated as a launchpad for anyone wanting to level up in wellness.    In this replay episode of The Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast (originally Episode 46), host Jamie Belz, FNTP, MHC, and CEO of the Nutritional Therapy Association, Mike Belz, break down the Foundations of Wellness into common-sense action steps for anyone looking to level up.   If you've been nodding along with the wellness movement but still aren't sure how to take your first real step - or you want to double-check what you're doing to ensure you're not missing anything - this episode is your warm welcome in.    People everywhere are waking up to a simple truth: real health doesn't come from pills, shakes, or short-term programs. Most of us have tried them - spent the money, followed the plans - only to end up frustrated or right back where we started. The missing piece? A strong foundation. And the good news is, it's not complicated - just a few practical, common-sense shifts can spark real, lasting change.  This episode is packed with real talk, science-backed wisdom, and practical tips to help you pick your own adventure in a doable way. No more "all or nothing" attempts. Start over for the last time with one or a few of the easy but effective action steps you can incorporate today.   If you're ready to stop feeling overwhelmed and finally start your wellness journey, this episode breaks it down into six simple, sustainable categories - what we call the Foundations of Wellness. You'll learn how to:   Eat a nutrient-dense diet rooted in real, whole foods (not calorie math), following Weston A. Price principles and honoring your bio-individual needs. Optimize digestion, the root of all health, by chewing thoroughly, practicing mindful eating, and supporting stomach acid and enzyme function. Balance blood sugar with small, daily habits like walking after meals and pairing carbs with protein and fat.

When new people find the Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast, they ask, "Where do I start?" While we'd love for you to go back to the beginning and take them all in, this is for those who need a quick catch-up. We're doing a Rapid Replay Series of condensed episodes, including the most popular episodes according to streams and downloads, and a few of our team's personal favorites.   In this replay episode of The Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast, host Jamie Belz, FNTP, MHC, brings back a historical lecture 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 come back tomorrow to catch the next episode as Gray explains digestive dysfunction.   Optimal digestion is crucial for vitality. It ensures that the body efficiently breaks down food into nutrients, which are then absorbed and utilized for energy, growth, and cellular repair. Proper digestion supports a strong immune system, maintains a healthy gut microbiome, and helps prevent gastrointestinal disorders. Additionally, it plays a significant role in mental health, as the gut is often referred to as the "second brain" due to its impact on mood and cognitive function. Therefore, maintaining optimal digestion is vital for promoting physical and mental health, enhancing quality of life, and preventing chronic diseases. The follow-up to yesterday's explanation of how digestion works when functioning optimally, today's episode continues along the journey of digestion, explaining that if someone is not properly digesting their food, they will not be able to absorb and assimilate the nutrients from the foods they are eating, regardless of how healthful those foods are. Gray walks you through "Digestive Hell" – the myriad of diseases, conditions, and other unpleasantries that arise from a suboptimal digestive system.   Every cell in an organism's tissues, organs, and systems relies on the ability to absorb nutrients from food properly. Factors such as stress, poor eating habits, gallbladder removal, and reduced stomach acid (HCl) levels can hinder digestion. Given the critical role of nutrition in maintaining healthy cells, any disruption in digestion can be harmful in various ways. A dysfunctional digestive system catalyzes a domino effect, impacting the functioning of other bodily systems.   Topics Discussed: – Recap of optimal digestion – Start of digestive dysfunction – "Where's 'Digestive Hell'?" – Distraction, stress, sympathetic state – Pancreatic amylase – Dysbiosis, yeast, pathogens – It's all about acid/pH levels – Macronutrient degradation – Inputs for the production of HCl – Things that cause hypochlorhydria (stress, too much protein, zinc, other nutrient deficiencies, allergies…) – Dr. Jonathan Wright, Heidelberg Test, hypochlorhydria, pH for proper hormone function, and enzymatic action – Pasteur vs. Bechamp / Microorganisms vs. Terraine (Which is to blame?) – H. pylori – Heartburn, acid reflux, GERD, ulcers – Homework/experiment – Incomplete digestion, whole food particles in the small intestine – Gallbladder, bile, fats, cholecystokinin, liver, fat-free or low-fat diet as the cause of gallstones and gallbladder dysfunction, cholecystectomy (gallbladder removal) – Burping up fish oil and delayed-release fish oil – Undigested proteins, microvilli, leaky gut/gut permeability, immune dysfunction – Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride, healing her autistic child, GAPS Diet – Large intestine/colon, ileocecal valve, dysbiosis, inflammation, diverticulitis, irritable bowel, Crohn's disease, celiac disease/gluten reactivity, hormones/endocrine system, enzymes, heart health, allergies, butyric acid, and foul-smelling feces   ________________________________________ Thanks for listening!

Listen to this, then come back tomorrow 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 for an individual's bioindividual needs is of little benefit if they're not properly breaking down food into molecules that can be absorbed and utilized by 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.   Topics Covered: – Overview of digestion – Digestive inputs/volume – Six digestive functions – Digestion is a north-to-south process – where does it begin? – Digestion is fundamental to Nutritional Therapy – How's it all supposed to work? – Deep dive into optimal function ________________________________________ Thanks for listening!

Welcome! and Thank you for listening.   Lessons that I have learned this year.   Lessons from coaches, my patients, and my practice.   You do not know your full potential until you try.  The beauty is that we get to right our own story.  Our health is much the same.  We get to write that story. It is not a lab marker or a gene.  It is a multitude of factors many of which we control.   How will I apply these lessons: I have some unfinished racing to do.  I have changed some of my macronutrients.  I will change my fueling strategy.   The sun plays a vital role in our health.  Find out how you can improve your health using the sun and the outdoors.  Thank you for listening.  Happy Healthy New Year!
