While mammograms are often pushed at age 40 as the gold standard for breast health screening, many women are questioning the risk-reward ratio and seeking safer, more holistic alternatives. Could thermography be a more proactive, less harmful approach to identifying early dysfunction in the body? This episode explores the topic of thermography as a non-invasive, radiation-free tool for wellness assessment.  In this episode, we are  joined by special guest Amanda Allen, owner of Austin Thermography, to break down the science, safety, and practical application of thermal imaging. We discuss how thermography differs from conventional screenings, what types of patterns it can detect—ranging from inflammation to hormonal imbalances—and how it may serve as an early warning system long before a disease manifests structurally. Whether you’re looking to support breast health, monitor chronic conditions, or simply stay in tune with your body’s signals, this episode will help you consider if thermography has a place in your wellness toolbox. More about Amanda Allen of Austin Thermography:  Amanda is trained and certified by the Professional Academy of Clinical Thermology as a Thermographic Technician. As the owner of Austin Thermography, she provides the highest quality thermographic imaging, using the latest, most advanced infrared camera available, so you can have a more complete picture of your health.  Amanda has 15 years of experience in patient care and takes great pride in putting her clients at ease throughout the screening process.   More information here:  Austin Thermography Breast Thermography International   Also in this episode:  Episode 313 Estrogen Metabolism and Breast Health Why Ali’s opting out of mammogram Exposing the Mammogram Myth: A New Era of Breast Cancer Screening with Dr. Jenn Simmons Amanda’s Story What is thermography?

In today’s episode of the Naturally Nourished Podcast, we’re getting up close and personal with an 8-legged creature that’s probably living on your face right now (yep, really). We’re diving into all things Demodex—a microscopic parasitic mite that lives in hair follicles and sebaceous glands, especially around the eyes. While most of us cohabitate peacefully with these tiny freeloaders, an overgrowth can trigger all kinds of skin and eye concerns, from blepharitis and ocular eczema to acne-like breakouts and rosacea flare-ups. We’ll unpack the science behind Demodex overgrowth, how it can drive inflammation and contribute to skin conditions that often go misdiagnosed or mistreated, and what to look out for if you’re dealing with stubborn rashes or redness around the eyes, nose, or cheeks. Of course, we’ll also walk you through food-as-medicine strategies and functional tools—from supporting the microbiome to choosing the right topicals—to help get things back in balance. Tune in for the nitty gritty (literally) and leave empowered with new ways to support clear skin and resilient immune function from the inside out.
