Episode Summary:
In this episode, I dive into some clarification on my philosophy for nutrition as some of my guests may have given the wrong idea. I also discuss what it means to be truly holistic rather than integrative or functional. I talk about the modern medical system and explore whether many common medical procedures, surgeries, and pharmaceutical treatments are truly necessary. I share my personal experiences with the healthcare system, including my journey with dentistry, surgery, and homeopathy, and discuss how nutrition and lifestyle changes can often prevent and even reverse health issues.Weâll examine the problems with allopathic medicineâs symptom-focused approach and how alternative and holistic methods can be a safer, more sustainable option. Whether itâs questioning routine dental procedures, avoiding unnecessary medications, or embracing homeopathy, this episode is all about empowering you to take control of your health with knowledge and informed decision-making.
Key Topics Discussed:
The overuse of surgery and pharmaceutical drugs in Western medicine
The impact of nutrition on chronic conditions like joint pain and inflammation
The connection between oral health, diet, and overall wellness
Homeopathy as a non-invasive and effective alternative approach to healing
The business side of healthcare and how it influences medical recommendations
The importance of questioning authority figures in the medical field
Personal experiences with holistic dentistry and avoiding unnecessary medications
The role of epigenetics in disease prevention and how lifestyle changes can make a difference
Notable Quotes:
âMany of these surgeries and medications are unnecessary. Itâs about understanding what lifestyle and nutritional changes you can make first.â
âThe allopathic model hyper-focuses on symptoms rather than root causesâitâs time we shift our approach.â
âOnly 6% of diseases are truly hereditary; the rest are influenced by diet and lifestyle.â
âHomeopathy is an entirely different system of medicineânot illegitimate, just different.â

đŁ This is a special episode for Podcasthon! đď¸This episode is dedicated to the Weston A. Price Foundation.
In this enlightening episode of Real Food Mental Health, we welcome Sally Fallon Morell, president of the Weston A. Price Foundation. Sally shares the wisdom of Dr. Weston A. Price, a pioneering researcher who studied traditional diets across the world. Her insights shed light on the power of nutrient-dense foods and ancestral eating practices for achieving optimal mental and physical health. We specifically discuss anxiety, depression, autism, fats, and gut health.
The Wisdom of Traditional Diets: Sally explains how traditional diets, rich in whole, unprocessed foods, promote well-being. These diets emphasize animal fats, organ meats, and raw dairy, all of which are nutrient-dense and key to supporting brain health and vitality.
The Importance of Fat-Soluble Vitamins: Sally emphasizes the crucial role of vitamins A, D, and K2 â nutrients abundant in traditional foods. These vitamins play vital roles in immune function, bone health, and neurological well-being.
Rethinking Modern Food Practices: Sally warns against the dangers of industrialized food products, such as processed oils and refined carbohydrates, which she connects to rising rates of chronic disease and mental health challenges.
The Role of Nutrient Density: The Weston A. Price Foundation advocates for nutrient-dense foods, particularly organ meats, seafood, and properly prepared grains, as the cornerstone of a thriving body and mind.
Prioritize traditional animal fats such as butter, lard, and tallow for cooking.
Choose grass-fed meats, pasture-raised eggs, and raw dairy for their superior nutritional profiles.
Seek out local, organic sources of produce and animal products to ensure nutrient density and environmental sustainability.
Sallyâs message is clear: by embracing traditional wisdom and nourishing our bodies with whole, nutrient-dense foods, we can support vibrant mental and physical health. Tune in to this episode to learn practical ways to incorporate these principles into your everyday life.

This is Part I of a short series on genetic testing and health!
Episode Summary:
In this episode, we discuss functional medicine and fertility with Jaclyn Downs, MS, CHC, CD, a Functional Medicine Practitioner and author of Enhancing Fertility Through Functional Medicine: Using Nutrigenomics to Solve Unexplained Infertility. Together, we explore the critical connection between lifestyle, environment, and reproductive health. Jaclyn shares actionable insights on balancing blood sugar, detoxifying from environmental toxins, and leveraging genetics to empower proactive health choices.Key Topics Discussed:
The Root Causes of Fertility Challenges:
Jaclyn sheds light on often-overlooked factors like blood sugar dysregulation, histamine balance, and fatty acid utilization. These are crucial for hormone balance and fertility.Toxins and Their Impact on Hormonal Health:
We discuss the role of endocrine disruptors, including plastics, pesticides, and mold exposure, in disrupting metabolic and reproductive pathways. Jaclyn highlights practical steps to minimize exposure and detoxify effectively.Blood Sugar and Hormone Balance:
Simple strategies like starting your day with a protein-based breakfast, pairing carbs with fats and proteins, and incorporating supplements like chromium and berberine can help stabilize blood sugar and improve overall health.Liver Detoxification Pathways:
Jaclyn emphasizes the importance of supporting phase two liver detox pathways, particularly glucuronidation, to clear mycotoxins and hormone-mimicking substances. Tips include consuming dandelion root, cruciferous vegetables, and foods rich in ellagic acid, like berries and chestnuts.Genetics and Proactive Health:
Understanding your genetic predispositions is not a doom-and-gloom approach but a tool to empower you. Jaclyn explains how knowing your genetics can guide lifestyle adjustments and prepare you for future health challenges.Actionable Takeaways: Balance blood sugar through diet, movement (especially strength training), and targeted supplements. Reduce toxin exposure by avoiding plastics, microwaving in plastic, and touching receipts. Swap to glass or stainless steel for food and beverages.
