Balance Your Life

Episode #170: This week on Balance Your Life podcast I am joined by Missy Beavers. Missy is a lover of puns, her 6-year-old’s-knock-knock jokes, dogs, kindness, and chocolate. She was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s disease at 8 years old after gaining 50 pounds in a matter of months. For years, she took thyroid meds yet struggled with anxiety, hair loss, depression, gut issues, and her weight ballooned to over 275 pounds. The doctors insisted her labs were "normal" so she began seeking out her own solutions. She got a master’s degree in nutrition and even bought a health food store in an attempt to solve her nagging thyroid symptoms. Through trial and error, she discovered that all disease begins in the gut and fixing her underlying issues helped her end the exhausting Hashimoto’s battle and drop the weight after 28 years. She now helps women everywhere do the same! On this episode we talk about signs and symptoms you may have thyroid issues, how gut health is directly connected to poor thyroid health, and hypothyroidism vs hyperthyroidism. We also discuss the toxicity in our environment that can be contributing to health issues, natural remedies and ways we can heal our gut and thyroid, and so much more!

Episode #161: This week on the podcast, I am joined by Louise and Jacqueline Wilkie. Jackie and Louise made the discovery of fulvic acid, two sisters whose mother was fighting the effects of radiation and chemotherapy. The Wilkie’s always preferred homeopathic, natural alternatives to traditional methods of supporting people’s health, so they began to search for a remedy to assist their mother’s recovery. Through the sister’s own research, they discovered that fulvic acid had numerous health benefits to help ease the negative effects of their mother’s condition. They were particularly excited with their mother’s positive response to it. Upon attending a trade show in 2010 they decided to bottle the fulvic acid formula as a functional water to see what kind of a response they might get - making no claims. Rather than hide the fact that the water became black, the sisters embraced it and the crowds went wild… and that was the birth of BLK. Louise and Jackie were brought up in a farm to table environment long before it became popular. Beneficial alternative foods have always been of interest so when they opened their manufacturing plant it was a natural step for them to embrace organic, lifestyle products. With Jackie’s sales/business experience and Louise’s R&D interests, the two focused on bringing to market Healthy Foods for a Healthy Lifestyle that support a Healthy Planet. On this episode we talk about creating BLK after their mother’s cancer diagnosis, the benefits of fulvic acid and its detoxification properties. We also discuss why detoxing our bodies are so critical in the prevention of disease, how the trace minerals, amino acids, and electrolytes, found in BLK water help to optimize our health, and so much more!
