Ep. 159 We explore the world of parasites with Kim Rogers, aka "The Worm Queen." With 18 years of experience in western medicine, Kim is one of the few experts boldly tackling this often-ignored topic, shedding light on the 95% of people who may unknowingly be living with parasites. We discuss the symptoms, causes, and how to cleanse your body, along with tips on water purification, food safety, and holistic therapies. Kim makes this eye-opening (and slightly terrifying) subject both approachable and empowering, helping you take control of your health with practical advice.

Ep. 149 On today’s episode of Pursuit of Wellness, I sit down with Dr. Marty Makary, a healthcare advocate, surgeon, and New York Times best-selling author, to dissect the complex web of our current healthcare system and its impact on everyday health. Dr. Marty pulls back the curtain on major blind spots in healthcare, from women's health to food safety issues like food dyes and seed oils in baby formula. We dive into the powerful effects of chronic illness and lifestyle choices, discussing the influence of school lunch programs, hormone disruptors, and the hidden dangers of ultra-processed foods. Dr. Marty also shares how cultural obedience within the healthcare system can delay necessary change and offers practical steps for optimizing family health, especially for children. This episode is an eye-opener on preventative care, the root causes of chronic issues, and the importance of community and purpose in maintaining overall well-being.
