Julie and Karinda are back from the NHAA Herbal Medicine Summit to tackle one of the most controversial, misunderstood topics in functional health: sunlight.Inspired by the hot-off-the-press book, In Defense of Sunlight by Rowan Jacobsen, they look past the rigid “slip, slop, slap” messaging to explore why sun avoidance might actually be driving our chronic disease epidemic. From the evolutionary biology of pale skin and blue eyes, to how your skin microbiome builds UV-resistant, cancer-fighting bacteria when exposed to natural light, this episode is a masterclass in circadian nuance.Ready to take this deeper and build your own strategic light routine? Join us for our upcoming live masterclass, Returning to Our Natural Rhythm: How to Use Sunlight and Darkness for Whole Body Health and Healing, on Thursday, July 2nd at 6:30 PM AEST.

In this conversation, Dr. Reza Ardalan sits down with Dr. Hugh Coyne, a London-based family medicine practitioner and the son of a pediatric dentist, who built Coyne Medical with his wife and clinical partner Dr. Lucy Coyne specifically to practice the kind of preventive medicine the NHS 10-minute appointment window does not allow. His training at Imperial College London and postgraduate work in obstetrics and gynecology, pediatric health, and sports medicine give him a panoramic view of the screening opportunities most dentists are sitting on without realizing it. Dr. Coyne walks through the short blood panel he would build into every dental practice: HbA1c for diabetes risk that directly changes wound healing and periodontal outcomes, highly sensitive CRP for the kind of cardiovascular inflammation a UK Biobank study of over 400,000 people linked to a 61% higher risk of cardiovascular death, vitamin D with the K2 pairing that keeps calcium out of arterial walls, renal function, and a full blood count. From there, Dr. Coyne and Dr. Ardalan move into the oral microbiome shift from pathogen elimination to ecosystem restoration, the role of P. gingivalis in rheumatoid arthritis through citrullinated protein antibodies, and the cardiometabolic markers most patients never get tested for, including apolipoprotein B and lipoprotein(a). The third act covers GLP-1 medications, the Gila monster origin story, the medieval cautionary tale of Sancho the Fat, and the dental-chair implications most patients will never volunteer on a health history form. In this Episode: The short blood panel any dental practice can start with: HbA1c, highly sensitive CRP, vitamin D, renal function, and a full blood count Why vitamin D supplementation without vitamin K2 may direct calcium into the wrong tissues, including arterial walls How a UK Biobank study of more than 400,000 people linked elevated hs-CRP to a 61% higher risk of cardiovascular death in patients otherwise considered well What the 87% of patients open to in-chair screening tells you about how to introduce blood testing in your practice without losing trust The rule of halves for blood pressure, and why a 158 reading caught on a second visit can be profoundly consequential for a patient's long-term survival How the oral microbiome model has shifted from pathogen elimination to ecosystem restoration, and what that changes about prevention Why P. gingivalis turns up in rheumatoid arthritis tissue, and how oral pathogens correlate with colorectal, pancreatic, and esophageal cancers The bachelor-party analogy for apolipoprotein B and lipoprotein(a), and why every dentist should know their own Lp(a) number What every dental practice needs to know before sedating a patient on a GLP-1 medication Dr. Hugh Coyne is a London-based GP and the co-founder, with his wife Dr. Lucy Coyne, of Coyne Medical, a family medicine practice focused on preventive care and the early detection of disease. Dr. Hugh Coyne trained at Imperial College London with postgraduate degrees in obstetrics and gynecology, pediatric health, and sports medicine, and is a featured speaker at the Wellness Dental Forum 2026.

"80% of your healing is MINDSET." - Dr. Heather Stone.

Mindset is the way you think and feel that programs your subconscious mind. It's literally running your life. In reality, if you stop, evaluate, and honestly answer questions like: What am I thinking? What do I believe about my body's ability to heal? How am I feeling about what is possible for me? You may be shocked by how easily you can move the needle in your healing once you work on the 80%. Tune in to dive deep into her mindset strategies and the other intentional steps she takes with the thousands of women she has helped find vibrant health with her Thyriod Transformation Blueprint. The conversation also explores key physiological strategies, including the importance of maintaining balanced iodine levels. One of Dr. V's major ah-ha moments was increasing her iodine levels. Once she did that, her healing also soared. Click here to learn more about the iodine, thyroid, and breast cancer connection—and learn more about our Iodine Support supplement here.

Homes That Heal | Transform Your Home Into a Health and Wellness Sanctuary
Ep 89 | If you've ever felt like your body is talking to you, but you're not sure how to listen, this conversation offers a powerful reframe.In this episode of Homes That Heal, Jen sits down with Dr. Wendy Henrichs for a deep, grounded conversation about chiropractic care, the nervous system, and how the body responds to physical, emotional, and environmental stress. This isn't about chasing symptoms or quick fixes—it's about understanding how the spine, nervous system, mindset, and lifestyle all work together to support healing.Dr. Wendy shares why chiropractors aren't just “back doctors,” how stress and stored emotion can show up as physical pain, and why creating safety for the nervous system is foundational for healing. Together, they explore the intersection of science and what some call “the woo”—from energy, breath, and visualization to nutrition, movement, and daily rhythms that help the body adapt and restore balance.
Discover the hidden connections between your mouth and your overall health in this eye-opening episode of the Gubba Podcast: Root Canals, Meridians, and Chronic Illness: What Dentistry Isn't Telling You About Whole-Body Health.Join me as we explore natural living, prepping, and self-reliance, and dive deep into a topic I have pondered for years: the potential long-term effects of root canals on systemic wellness. This isn't about fear, it's about awareness, asking better questions, and recognizing how conventional dentistry often treats teeth as isolated parts rather than integral to the body's interconnected systems.Explore why a root canal creates a "dead" structure in a living body, learn how these hidden, low-grade infections may evade standard X-rays and contribute to chronic stress on the immune system, potentially manifesting as unexplained fatigue, inflammation, hormonal imbalances, autoimmune issues, or other persistent health challenges far from the mouth.We will dive into the fascinating concept of meridians from traditional systems like Chinese medicine, where each tooth aligns with specific organs and energetic pathways. Whether you're dealing with chronic mysteries, curious about whole-body connections, or simply want to make more informed choices about dental care, this thought-provoking discussion encourages curiosity over convention.Tune in to the Gubba Homestead Podcast for practical insights on homesteading, natural health, and living in alignment with your body and the land.

And what actually helps when willpower isn't enough?In this live episode I'm joined by bestselling author and medical doctor Giulia Enders for a wide-ranging conversation about habits, reward systems, and why health can't be reduced to single organs or quick fixes.In this conversation you'll learn:Why Giulia has widened her focus from the gut to the whole body.How to better understand why our bodies sometimes behave in ways we don't like.What's happening in the brain's reward system when we get stuck in scrolling and other modern addictions.Practical strategies for reducing cravings for sweets, snacks, screens, and similar habits.How to look at unhealthy habits more holistically — understanding both their positive and negative sides.Why movement isn't something we can biohack our way around and the one aspect of it that makes it invaluable.For more from Giulia:The book: OrganiskWishing you a great week!AnnetteFollow me on:Instagram.com/dr.annettedraglandFacebook.com/drannettedraglandhttps://youtube.com/@drannetteCredits:Sound technician: Håvard DahleAudio post-production: Simen Nielsen StokkeDisclaimer: The content of this podcast and this website is not intended to constitute or replace professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

Get Dr. Vonda's latest insights on strength, bone health, longevity, and aging with power delivered straight to your inbox. Join her free health & longevity newsletter here: https://www.drvondawright.com/resources/aging-longevity There's a moment many women reach in midlife where things don't feel wrong but they don't feel right either. Digestion changes. Bloating appears out of nowhere. Sleep feels lighter. Inflammation lingers. And no one ever told us these systems might all be connected. I sat down with Cynthia Thurlow, a nurse practitioner and intermittent fasting expert, to talk about a topic that is still vastly underexplored in women's health: the gut microbiome during perimenopause and menopause. So many women are told their digestive symptoms, inflammation, mood changes, or recurrent infections are just "part of aging." What Cynthia makes clear is that these experiences are deeply rooted in physiology and that when we understand what's happening, we're no longer powerless. This conversation matters because it replaces dismissal with clarity and fear with context. We examine how this topic shows up in daily life: - Why declining estrogen affects gut barrier integrity, immune response, and inflammation - How "leaky gut" can contribute to bone loss, autoimmune risk, and metabolic changes - The connection between gut health, mood, anxiety, and neurotransmitter signaling - Why fiber and short-chain fatty acids become more important in perimenopause and menopause - How fermented foods can support microbiome diversity and recovery after stress, illness, or antibiotics - The gut–vaginal microbiome connection and why improving one can support the other - How chronic stress and unprocessed trauma can accelerate hormonal aging and menopause timing About Cynthia Thurlow: Cynthia Thurlow, NP is a nurse practitioner, intermittent fasting expert, and educator specializing in women's health, hormones, and longevity. Her work bridges functional and conventional medicine, with a focus on helping women understand the physiological changes of perimenopause and menopause through a science-based, compassionate lens.
Fertility expert and nutritionist Rachel Swanson discusses her new book "Trying!: A Science-Backed Plan to Optimize Your Fertility."
Sleep apnea is often thought of as loud snoring or poor sleep, but its impact goes far beyond the bedroom. In this episode, we explain how NightLase treatment for sleep apnea may support deeper sleep, better airflow, and improved overall wellness for certain patients. At Allure Medical, we see many individuals who don't fit the “typical” sleep apnea profile. Some struggle with fatigue, brain fog, poor focus, or symptoms they never connected to sleep quality. When breathing is disrupted during sleep, the body may never reach restorative deep sleep stages, affecting the brain, cardiovascular system, digestion, and more. This educational discussion breaks down how NightLase treatment for sleep apnea works, who may be a candidate, and why identifying sleep-disordered breathing early matters. You'll also learn how improving sleep quality can support cognitive performance, daytime alertness, and long-term health. NightLase treatment for sleep apnea is one of several options available today. While it may not be right for everyone, it represents a non-surgical approach that some patients explore when CPAP or other therapies are difficult to tolerate.TIMESTAMPS:00:00 - A Patient Story That Changed Everything 00:34 - What Is NightLase Treatment for Sleep Apnea? 00:39 - How Sleep Apnea Disrupts Deep Sleep 01:03 - Why Deep Sleep Matters for Brain Health 01:16 - Who Is (and Isn't) a Typical Sleep Apnea Patient 01:27 - How Many Treatments Are Usually Needed 01:52 - Unexpected Improvements Patients Notice 02:49 - Sleep Apnea, Focus, and Daytime Alertness 03:36 - Sleep Apnea and Whole-Body Health 04:23 - Other Treatment Options Besides NightLase 04:44 - Why Screening for Sleep Apnea MattersLearn More: https://www.alluremedical.com/Books & Research: https://www.alluremedical.com/books/Follow Dr. Charles Mok & Allure Medical: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/charles-mok-4a0432114/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alluremedicals/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@AllureMedical TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@alluremedicalAmazon Store: https://www.amazon.com/stores/Dr.-Charles-Mok/author/B0791M9FZQInner Circle Membership: https://www.alluremedic#insidethecure
What if case acceptance didn't feel like "selling" at all? In this first episode of 2026, Dr. Len Tau sits down with Dr. Camesia Matthews to explore a powerful new way to help patients truly understand—and say yes to—their treatment plans. Dr. Matthews introduces her Dental Fitness Method, a five-pillar framework that connects oral health to whole-body wellness.

In this episode of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ekta Yadav sits down with Dr. Alexes Hazen—board-certified plastic surgeon, microsurgery specialist, and founder of Zen Essentials—for a thoughtful conversation on skin health, ethical aesthetics, and why real results can never be separated from whole-body well-being. With a background that spans public health, global medicine, and some of the most technically demanding surgical training, Dr. Hazen brings a rare depth to how she thinks about beauty, healing, and care.Her path to medicine was anything but linear. From working with the New York City Department of Health during the AIDS crisis to serving in the Peace Corps in Honduras, Dr. Hazen learned early that medicine isn't just technical—it's human. Those experiences shaped a philosophy she carries into every aspect of her work today: outcomes are influenced as much by mental health, sleep, nutrition, and support systems as they are by surgical skill.Throughout the conversation, Dr. Hazen challenges the surface-level thinking that dominates skincare culture. Skin, she reminds us, is an organ—and it reflects what's happening internally. No product can compensate for chronic stress, dehydration, or exhaustion. When those fundamentals are addressed, skincare finally has the space to work as it should.She also speaks candidly about ethics in aesthetic medicine—why board certification matters, why saying “no” is sometimes the most responsible choice, and how listening to patients should always come before selling solutions.That same restraint and intention led to the creation of Zen Essentials, born from Dr. Hazen's own struggles with severe skin sensitivities. Designed to be effective yet calming, the line reflects her belief that skincare should support the body—not fight it.Listen to the full episode to hear Dr. Alexes Hazen unpack holistic healing, ethical aesthetics, and why real skin health starts with caring for the whole person.SHOP Zen Essentials and learn more on social media!CHAPTERS:(0:02) - Introduction & Guest Welcome(0:46) - A Nonlinear Path Into Medicine(1:26) - Public Health, AIDS Education & the Peace Corps(2:46) - Falling in Love With Surgery & Plastic Surgery Training(3:01) - Early Burn Injury, Scars & Coming Full Circle(4:12) - Why Holistic Care Matters in Surgical Outcomes(8:40) - Skin as a Reflection of Whole-Body Health(11:22) - Ethics, Training & Responsibility in Aesthetic Surgery(26:21) - The Origins of Zen Essentials & Sensitive Skin SciencePlease fill out this survey to give us feedback on the show!Don't forget to subscribe to Skin Anarchy on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred platform.Reach out to us through email with any questions.Sign up for our newsletter!Shop all our episodes and products mentioned through our ShopMy Shelf!*This is a paid collaboration Hosted on Acast.

Your neck is the highway from your brain to your body, and one small instability (even if you don't feel it) can create a whirlwind of issues in your body below it: from low energy to gut issues, hip or knee pain, a weakened immune system, poor sleep, bad moods and so much more. But what no one talks about is how you're likely dealing with this silent neck problem and how one simple movement or adjustment can correct this whole cascade of events that's slowly strangling the health and viltality out of your body. TOPICS DISCUSSED IN THIS EPISODE: The role of neck and nerve function in gut health, stomach acid and enzyme production, gut motility and leaky gut How neck misalignment (C1 instability) creates pain down below How to make treatments and adjustments last Genetic factors weakening your connective tissues Complimentary therapies to stiffen ligaments so your adjustments and joints hold Practical steps to give to your own health care providers More from Erin Doppelt: Instagram: @drryanemmons Clinic Website: atlaspaicentre.com C1 Course for Professionals: clinicalupgrade.ca Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review Need help with your gut?

What if autoimmunity wasn't the body turning against you, but a call for deeper care and understanding? In this episode of Healthily, I'm joined by Nutritional Therapist Elisa Ferguson, who specialises in supporting people with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). We explore the wider story behind autoimmune conditions – including how stress, gut health, trauma, and diet all interact in powerful ways. We take a look at the cell danger response – a protective mechanism where the body essentially "hits pause" on certain functions to deal with threat. When this response becomes chronic, it can contribute to many chronic conditions, including MS. Together, we reflect on why people often fall down rabbit holes in search of solutions, and how to find a gentler, more effective way forward. This is an episode full of insight, calm, and connection – not just for those living with MS, but for anyone curious about how to support whole-body health through the lens of autoimmunity.

The Easy Way to Get Healthy: Discovering Holistic Wellness Through God's Design Thriving in today's world—mentally, physically, and spiritually—requires more than just effort. In a culture that values quick fixes and constant productivity, we've forgotten something simple: the easy way to get healthy is to return to the way God designed us to live. The book of Genesis isn't just the story of creation—it's a blueprint for wellness. It reveals how we are meant to eat, move, rest, and relate. Reclaiming Wellness: What Did God Intend for Your Body and Mind? In today's noisy, overstimulated world, it's easy to feel off-balance. We are distracted by what we see, rushing from one task to the next and often ignoring the signals our bodies send us. As a result, we overcomplicate health when, in reality, the easy way to get healthy is already in front of us—laid out from the very beginning. Genesis 1:29 reads: "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food." This verse reminds us of the essentials. Real food. Natural light. Movement. Rest. Community. Breath. These aren't trends or fads. They are timeless tools—gifts God built into creation to help us thrive. The Genesis Prescription: 7 Essentials for Whole-Person Health When you return to God's original design, the path to wellness becomes clear. You don't need to overhaul your life overnight. Instead, by taking small, intentional steps, you begin to experience fundamental transformation. So, here's the easy way to get healthy—one choice at a time: 1. Eat Real Food the Way God Made It 2. Let the Sun Set Your Rhythm 3. Ground Yourself in God's Creation 4. Breathe Like You Were Designed To 5. Honor Rest and Embrace Darkness 6. Move the Way God Designed You To 7.

Our healthcare system treats us like it's one size fits all, yet that's not how true healing works, especially when it comes to chronic conditions. Today's guest will help us understand how to fill the gap we experience with Western medicine, including the difference between signs vs. symptoms, and empowers our individualized healthcare. On this episode of Salad with a Side of Fries, host Jenn Trepeck welcomes Functional Medicine Nutritionist and educator Andrea Nakayama to explore why chronic conditions require more than just a diagnosis and a prescription. They unpack Andrea's “three roots, many branches” model, revealing how digestion, inflammation, and genetics lie at the heart of chronic illness—and how nurturing the "soil" around them can lead to true healing. From nutrition habits to the importance of bio-individuality, this conversation empowers you to become an informed partner in your health care.The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, who discusses wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store. IN THIS EPISODE:(00:00) Intro: Our healthcare system is one size fits all(05:08) Andrea shares her motivation for her journey into functional nutrition, and a discussion of Western medicine(07:41) Should every person receive the same treatment for the same chronic condition(11:45) How to choose a guide in the health equation(16:40) Knowing the difference between your signs vs. symptoms(21:59) Andrea walks us through the “three roots and many branches” model(28:36) The roles digestion and inflammation play in our health(33:37) Tiers to nutrition mastery. Tier one is our non-negotiables(36:40) Don't neglect your passion and purpose(38:48) Andrea's non-negotiable trifecta: Sleep, poop, and blood sugarKEY TAKEAWAYS:Chronic health conditions must be understood through a systems-based lens, not just symptom management. Every chronic issue has three core roots—genes, digestion, and inflammation. Healing begins by nurturing these “roots” and the surrounding “soil,” rather than chasing individual symptoms alone. Western medicine excels in acute care but often falls short in managing chronic conditions. Patients are frequently seen through the lens of their diagnosis rather than as whole individuals, resulting in treatments that overlook their unique health histories and personal needs.One of the most powerful tools patients can use is specific, emotion-free communication based on personal health tracking. By clearly distinguishing between signs (measurable indicators like fever or rash) and symptoms (subjective experiences like fatigue or pain) and offering detailed timelines of when and how issues arise, patients empower providers to better understand and address their unique health needs.Supporting foundational health can start with three simple, non-negotiable nutrition habits: include fat, fiber, and protein at every meal or snack to help stabilize blood sugar; eat the rainbow to boost fiber and phytonutrient intake while feeding your microbiome; and know your yes-no-maybe list to understand better how specific foods impact your body. Tracking what makes you feel great, what doesn't, and what you're unsure about builds awareness and equips you to have more productive, personalized conversations with your healthcare provider.QUOTES: (07:41) “The first two gaps I encountered were that people are treated like their diagnosis. So, when you are in the medical system, you are your endometriosis, your fibroids, your breast cancer, your PMS. You are your symptom. The other gap was that everybody with the same symptom or diagnosis was treated the same.” - Andrea Nakayama(09:34) “A chronic condition means you're sick and you're not getting better. There's things going on for a long time, and our medical system isn't trained to address chronic conditions.” Andrea Nakayama(25:32) “The three roots of any chronic condition are always our genes, digestion and inflammation. All three need to be tended to for the branches to express themselves more fully.” - Andrea Nakayama(36:53) “We have an episode called the Longevity Equation, and one about Blue Zones and one of the big factors there that everybody seems to overlook is community and connection.” - Jenn TrepeckRESOURCES:Become A Member of Salad with a Side of FriesJenn's Free Menu PlanA Salad With a Side of FriesA Salad With A Side Of Fries MerchA Salad With a Side of Fries InstagramNutrition Nugget: Genes and EpigeneticsSalad With a Side of Fries: The Longevity EquationSalad With a Side of Fries: Blue Zones: A Blueprint for Physical and Mental HealthSalad With a Side of Fries: The Down and DirtyGUEST RESOURCES:Andrea Nakayama - WebsiteFunctional Nutrition Alliance - WebsiteAndrea Nakayama - InstagramFunctional Nutrition Alliance - YouTubeAndrea Nakayama - PinterestAndrea Nakayama, Functional Nutritionist & EducatorAndrea Nakayama - Functional Nutrition Alliance | LinkedInGUEST BIOGRAPHY:Andrea is a Functional Medicine Nutritionist and educator who has led thousands of clients and teaches even more coaches and clinicians worldwide.

Are you navigating perimenopause or menopause while also managing chronic health conditions? Or perhaps perimenopause has triggered an underlying, previously dormant issue? Traditional healthcare may not be enough to combat the symptoms, but do not fear! Today's guest is here to teach us how your nervous system, immune system, and hormones can all work together to support healing and longevity. This week, host Jenn Trepeck is joined by Dr. Jessica Drummond, Founder and CEO of The Integrative Women's Health Institute. Together, they explore how seemingly “silent” chronic conditions like endometriosis, pelvic pain, autoimmune disorders or even long covid, can complicate menopause—and what you can do about it. Dr. Drummond shares her insights on calming the nervous system, building metabolic health through nutrient-dense habits, and using tools like heart rate variability (HRV) to guide recovery. The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, who discusses wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store. IN THIS EPISODE: (00:00) The impact of menopause on silent chronic conditions(05:44) Dr. Jessica Drummond reflects on her professional journey in the chronic condition space(11:11) Common underlying chronic conditions affecting menopause(16:08) Discussion of the silent underlying conditions that can manifest later in life(25:43) Calming the nervous system to heal in a consistent way(30:50) The importance of your metabolic health in the form of nutrient-dense food, strength training, walking, hydration and circadian rhythm(32:09) Discussion of heart rate variability, recovery, and developing the art of sitting quietly(41:36) The importance of working with a health coach to plan for the future of your healthKEY TAKEAWAYS:Menopause and perimenopause symptoms can be overwhelming on their own. Still, when layered on top of chronic conditions like endometriosis, pelvic pain, autoimmune disorders, or post-viral syndromes (e.g., long COVID), it creates a compounded health challenge. Traditional training often overlooks the role of nutrition, nervous system regulation, and lifestyle in healing. Chronic conditions—especially during perimenopause—require a personalized, holistic strategy.Healing during menopause doesn't require drastic changes—small, consistent steps matter most. Start where it feels easiest, like mindfulness, nutrition, or gentle movement. Recovery and nervous system regulation are just as important as action. Tools like heart rate variability (HRV) can help track progress, showing that true resilience comes from balancing effort with rest.Integrating the nervous, immune, and hormone systems is the key to living a longer, more active, healthier life. When these systems are balanced and working together, they support overall well-being and longevity.QUOTES: (10:04) “In my traditional physical therapy training, nutrition was not emphasized as a healing tool. It was more like you needed adequate nutrients to perform certain physical activities, but we didn't think about it from an anti-inflammatory standpoint.” - Dr. Jessica Drummond(13:59) “Research shows us that acute illnesses like infections trigger chronic diseases.” - Dr. Jessica Drummond(22:36) “It's exposing these underlying things that have been lying dormant, that we just brushed aside or pushed through because they weren't really standing in the way of us doing the things that we wanted to do.” - Jenn Trepeck(40:19) “I think we make these plans expecting perfection, planning for this optimal, ideal day that never happens. So put these things in place so they happen even on the days where we don't feel a hundred percent, even on the days where nothing goes as planned.” - Jenn TrepeckRESOURCES:Become A Member of Salad with a Side of FriesJenn's Free Menu PlanA Salad With a Side of FriesA Salad With A Side Of Fries MerchA Salad With a Side of Fries InstagramUse Your Heart Rate Monitor to Improve Your Health GUEST RESOURCES:The Integrative Women's Health InstituteIntegrative Women's Health - Podcast Integrative Women's Health - PubMedInnovative Approaches to Chronic Pain with The Anodunos Method TeamGUEST BIOGRAPHY:Dr. Jessica Drummond, DCN, CNS, PT, NBC-HWC, is a leading expert in women's health and the Founder and CEO of The Integrative Women's Health Institute.

Pain is not merely a nuisance to be silenced—it's your body's sophisticated alarm system calling for attention. In this illuminating conversation with Dr. Scott J. Vrzal, we uncover how the location of your headaches serves as a roadmap to understanding deeper health imbalances throughout your body.Dr. Vrzal, a chiropractor specializing in applied kinesiology, shares his groundbreaking approach to decoding seven distinct headache patterns and their connections to specific organ systems. Did you know that a right-sided headache typically indicates gallbladder dysfunction, while temple pain often relates to hormonal imbalances? These connections, featured in his new book "The Headache Advantage," offer powerful insights for anyone seeking relief beyond medication.Our discussion ventures into surprising territory, revealing how TMJ issues often originate not in the jaw itself but from pelvic misalignment caused by chronic adrenal stress. We explore the counterintuitive truth that most acid reflux stems from too little stomach acid rather than too much, and how wheat consumption—particularly due to glyphosate contamination—compromises gallbladder function and triggers widespread inflammation.Perhaps most valuable is Dr. Vrzal practical wisdom about using proteolytic enzymes as powerful natural anti-inflammatories that can dramatically accelerate healing after dental procedures or surgery. This approach not only addresses pain but supports your body's inherent healing mechanisms without blocking crucial liver pathways needed for recovery.Whether you're dealing with persistent headaches, unexplained pain, or simply want to understand your body's signals more clearly, this episode offers a transformative perspective on health. As Dr. Vrzal reminds us, "Pain is intended to elicit change." By learning the language your body speaks, you gain the advantage of addressing root causes rather than merely silencing symptoms.
