Episode 334: Hair Loss
Are you losing hair? Wondering how much loss is normal and when to be concerned? Looking for natural solutions to regrow healthy hair? Tune in to hear us discuss hair loss and thinning, from the cycles of hair growth, to why your hair might be falling out, to what you can do about it from a functional medicine perspective!
By age 50, over half of women will complain of hair loss and by age 35 we can see this impacting over 60% of men. If you’re losing hair, conventional treatments like Rogaine and Propecia or hiding under a baseball cap are far from the only options. In this episode, we unpack the different types of hair loss as well as main drivers, including stress, hormonal imbalance, nutrient deficiency, and genetics, and provide food as medicine and supplement solutions. Plus we discuss post-COVID hair loss, postpartum hair loss, and whether some of the buzzworthy products like Nutrafol are worth a try.

Episode 332: Myocarditis and Sudden Adult Death Syndrome
Heart attacks in young people are on the rise, with one recent study noting a 30% increase in people ages 25 to 44. Why are these numbers so high? What is myocarditis and is that contributing to Sudden Adult Death Syndrome? Tune in to hear us discuss the recent uptick in heart attacks, sudden deaths, and myocarditis as well as risk factors and what you can do to stay healthy!
We continue to see collapsing athletes and otherwise healthy adults “dying suddenly” along with the rise of myocarditis in youth. In this episode we discuss how myocarditis or inflammation of the heart continues to increase over the past 3 years. While this is scary, there are things we can do to reduce the risk including reducing oxidative stress, preventing clot formation, enhancing antioxidant status, and focusing on certain nutrients that support the heart.

Episode 331: Homocysteine and Methylation
Do you know your homocysteine level? What can homocysteine tell us about our methylation and overall health status? How can you lower elevated homocysteine? If it seems like we’re speaking a foreign language, don’t worry, we break it all down in today’s episode all about this important biomarker!
Elevated homocysteine levels can be brought on by gene mutations like MTHFR as well as medications, poor diet, toxin exposure, hormone imbalances, and stress. B vitamins from our food and supplements act as methyl donors that help keep your body's homocysteine at healthy levels and methylation working optimally. Learn how to assess homocysteine, what elevated levels mean, and how you can lower them with diet, lifestyle and supplementation!

Episode 328: Childhood Obesity Fueling Pharma Profits vs. Sustainable Solutions
Have you heard the new guidance from the American Academy of Pediatrics on childhood obesity? If you have, you are likely as astounded and outraged as we are to hear drug therapy and bariatric surgery recommended to children as a way to manage the growing problem of childhood obesity. Tune in to hear us break down the new guidelines and offer sustainable, cost-affordable solutions for families.
Obesity currently affects about 20% of children and 42% of adults, and we agree this is a problem that needs to be faced head on. However, recommending drugs and weight loss surgery to children without offering any guidance on diet and exercise is just not a sustainable solution. In fact, the AAP guidance could have devastating effects on children while, no surprise, driving big profits for pharma. Learn how carb awareness, low carb, and detox support can be appropriate for overweight and obese children, creating whole body wellness for a lifetime. Plus we discuss the role of nutrient deficiency, essential supplementation, exercise and more in combating this multifaceted issue.

With all of the new non-caloric sweeteners coming to market like monkfruit and allulose, has our position changed? Are we still a hard no on non-caloric sweeteners?

In this episode, we unpack new research on the impacts of non-caloric sweeteners. From their impact on insulin secretion to the way they can wreak havoc on the microbiome to how they can trick the palate and actually cause weight gain, we tell you the whole truth about these substances and why they have no business in your body! Plus learn how our keto approach allows for use of real food sweeteners and hear why using a banana or raw honey in a recipe might not kick you out of ketosis!

Episode 326: Testosterone Decline & Ways to Boost
Did you know that testosterone is on the decline, particularly in American men?! What is causing this rapid decline and is this a threat to the future of the human population? What are the top killers of testosterone and how can we rebound? What foods, lifestyle shifts and nutrients can support healthy testosterone levels? Tune in to hear us answer all this and more in this important episode!
Testosterone levels have steadily declined in the U.S. over the past few decades, leaving the average 70 year old American male with significantly lower levels than a 100 year old Okinawan male by comparison. Not only have levels declined relative to men in other countries, American men have seen a more rapid decline year over year, leaving men who turned 65 in 2002 with substantially lower levels than men who turned 65 in 1987, for example. In this episode, we’ll take a deep dive into these trends and discuss drivers of low testosterone, from poor diet to sedentary lifestyles to Vitamin D deficiency and so much more.
