In this episode, HeHe interviews Dr. Nina-Marie, an expert on gut health and pediatric wellness. They discuss the foundational importance of gut health, connections between gut microbiome and conditions such as eczema, cancer, and sleep disorders, as well as the impact of heavy metals and environmental factors. Dr. Nina-Marie emphasizes a holistic approach to addressing health concerns, advocating for thorough testing such as GI maps and HTMA (Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis). The conversation also covers vaccination concerns, especially related to aluminum and mercury, as well as safe and effective alternative approaches to managing pediatric health issues. Dr. Nina-Marie provides practical advice for parents on how to address their children’s health concerns through diet, lifestyle changes, and appropriate testing and supplements.

From Nina:

I love reading, hiking, sitting outside in the sun, and spending undistracted time with my husband and 3 children.

As a traditionally trained Naturopathic Doctor who focuses on perinatal and pediatric health, I help your family grow without Big Pharma.

Whether you’re coming to me for help getting and staying pregnant, or because your child is dealing with chronic eczema, constipation, ADHD, or autism - you can be sure that I will not be giving you the same one-size symptom-suppressing approach your typical doc gives you.

Instead, I make sure your care is tailored to your specific body’s needs with functional testing so we can tackle the root cause of your/your child’s health issues.
