259: Test, Don't Guess: The Labs and Supplements Every Woman Needs
2w ago00:21:59Tap to summarizeDid you know that the birth control pill can deplete B vitamins? And that coffee, alcohol, and antacids can drain the nutrients your body needs for hormone production, quality sleep, and bone health? Most women I see in my clinic unknowingly lack key nutrients. So, in this episode, I break down which lab tests and supplements are most effective for restoring nutrient balance and supporting long-term health and vitality. Magnesium: deficiency signs, dosing, and supplement forms Muscle cramps, headaches, anxiety, and trouble sleeping could all be linked to low magnesium Constipation and restless legs often improve when magnesium levels are supported Chronic stress could increase your body’s magnesium needs Loose stools can be a sign that your magnesium dose is too high You can take different forms of magnesium for sleep, anxiety, or muscle support Bio: Stephanie Gray Stephanie Gray, DNP, MS, ARNP, AGNP-C, ABAAHP, FAARFM, is a functional medicine provider who helps men and women build sustainable, optimal health and longevity.

3w ago00:16:41Tap to summarizeWould you believe that the most powerful medicine cabinet in your house is in your refrigerator, not your bathroom?

256: Hormones, Longevity, Faith & the Perimenopause Reset with Dr. Jenny Pfleghaar - Part 1
Apr 2900:38:53Tap to summarizeI’m excited to have Dr. Jen Pfleghaar with me for a two-part series on perimenopause, hormones, stress-cycle syncing, and faith. Stay tuned for Part 1! How to work with your hormones instead of fighting them Work with your cycle: you’re more resilient to stress in the follicular phase, and need more calm and recovery in the luteal phase Eat with your cycle: fasting, low carb, or keto work better in the follicular phase, while the luteal phase needs more calories, healthy fats, protein, and some carbs Fast at the right time: intermittent fasting or longer fasts are better in the follicular phase, but can trigger a cortisol response in the luteal phase Train with your cycle: HIIT, heavy lifting, and pushing for PRs fit the follicular phase, while the luteal phase calls for mobility, walking, and less intense training Pay attention to your body: changes in hunger, energy, and cravings are driven by your hormones, which shift throughout your cycle Bio: Dr. Jen Pfleghaar is a double board-certified physician in Emergency and Integrative Medicine. Through her practice, Healthy by Dr. Jen, she provides virtual care and shares education as @integrativedrmom. She lives on a mini farm in Tennessee with her husband and four children.

In this episode: How inconsistent practices and “wild west” hormone information lead to confusion about hormone therapy How conventional care often focuses on managing symptoms rather than identifying root causes Why it’s essential to address the root causes of autoimmune conditions How early perimenopause symptoms are often overlooked in conventional medical care, even when women experience clear physical and emotional changes The link between symptoms like anxiety, palpitations, and cycle changes and shifting hormones in perimenopause How increasing dietary restrictions and exercise intensity in response to weight gain increases cortisol and works against hormones The importance of adjusting your lifestyle habits to match the various phases of your menstrual cycle Links and Resources: Guest Social Media Links: Healthy By Dr. Jen (Website) Healthy By Dr. Jen Perimenopause 101 IntegrativeDrMom on YouTube IntegrativeDrMom on Instagram IntegrativeDrMom on Facebook Dr. Jen on X (@integrativedrma) Dr. Jen on TikTok (@integrativedrjen) Dr. Jen Pfleghaar on LinkedIn Link to Dr. Jen’s Book: The Perimenopause Reset: 28 Days to Energize Your Body, Shed Weight and Find Peace with God.

Apr 2200:18:35Tap to summarizeIs red light therapy real- or just hype? More and more people are questioning whether it actually does anything, or if it’s just another wellness trend that will quietly fade away over the next 18 months.

Apr 800:43:35Tap to summarizeI’m excited to welcome Dr. Peter Osborne for a two-part series. Most of us grew up hearing that whole grains are good for us. But what if that's wrong? Today, in Part One, Dr. Osborne breaks down how his book, No Grain No Pain, challenges almost everything we've been told about healthy eating. He clarifies what grains are actually doing inside our body, and why he believes they're foundational to many chronic illnesses.

In this episode, we discuss Lyme disease, clarifying why it is challenging to diagnose and highlighting herbal protocols that can be helpful. Dr. Nathan also offers his recommendations for patients who have been struggling for years without finding a solution. How to treat Lyme disease without worsening herxheimer reactions: Reduce treatment doses if symptoms worsen instead of pushing through the discomfort Avoid killing the bacteria faster than your body can process the released toxins Start with extremely small treatment doses if you are highly sensitive Recognize that even tiny amounts of treatment can still move your recovery forward Focus on steady, tolerable progress rather than aggressive treatment strategies Bio: Dr. Neil Nathan Neil Nathan, MD, has been practicing medicine for over 50 years, and has been Board Certified in Family Practice and Pain Management, and is a Founding Diplomate of the American Board of Integrative Holistic Medicine and a Founding Diplomate of ISEAI.

He has been working to bring an awareness that mold toxicity is a major contributing factor for patients with chronic illness and lectures internationally on this subject which led to the publication of his ebook, Mold and Mycotoxins: Current Evaluation and Treatment, 2016, (now updated to 2022), and then to his best-selling book Toxic: Heal Your Body from Mold Toxicity, Lyme Disease, Multiple Chemical Sensitivities and Chronic Environmental Illness, (2nd edition just released).

Mar 1800:35:53Tap to summarizeHave you ever experienced unexplained fatigue, brain fog, chronic pain, or mysterious symptoms no one can figure out? If so, today’s conversation may possibly change everything for you. I am thrilled to have Dr. Neil Nathan join me for a two-part series. Today, in Part 1, we explore mold toxicity, clarify what it is, and explain why it is often overlooked, how to know if it’s affecting you, and most importantly, what you can do about it. How to Effectively Address Mold Toxicity Remove yourself from the moldy environment Use binders to target the specific mycotoxins identified in your body Treat mold colonization in your sinuses or gut if necessary Combine an antifungal treatment with agents to break down any protective biofilms Continue with the treatment until your mold toxin levels have decreased and all your symptoms are resolved Bio: Dr. Neil Nathan Neil Nathan, MD has been practicing medicine for over 50 years, and has been Board Certified in Family Practice and Pain Management and is a Founding Diplomate of the American Board of Integrative Holistic Medicine and a Founding Diplomate of ISEAI.
