401: With Skyrocketing Rates of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), Colorectal Cancer… Is A Colonoscopy Screening BAD For Your Gut? w/ Dr. Ilana Gurevich

Could your fatigue, bloating, or random skin rashes be more than “just stress” or IBS? You might be shocked to learn they could actually be signs of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) or even colon cancer — yes, it’s possible without having obvious digestive symptoms. It’s unfortunately common to discover that you have Crohn’s or ulcerative colitis in your 60s, and not because of gut issues… but during a routine colonoscopy screening. Others are misdiagnosed for years while battling brain fog, ...

400: Is Tylenol Safe? The Acetaminophen Side Effects That Wreck Your Liver

Is Tylenol really safe? With all the dramatic discussions online about acetaminophen, autism, and potential side effects (that include liver failure risks), my clients have been asking my opinion. The truth is somewhere in the middle because, as with anything – over-the-counter medications like this, herbs or even nutritional supplements – there are pros and cons. Nothing is risk–free.

399: Natural Perimenopause Treatment Using Maca Root Powder (What The Research Says + How It Helps Menopause AND Manopuase In Men) w/ Dr. Deanna Minich

Have you tried maca root for perimenopause, menopause, manopause (low T), adrenal fatigue, or hormone imbalances and felt like it didn’t work—or even made things worse? While it’s often marketed as a universal hormone balancer, not all maca is created equal. Different types of maca root affect the body in very different ways, so using the wrong kind can actually worsen symptoms triggering anxiety, acne, or energy crashes. In this episode, Dr. Deanna Minich, PhD—nutrition scientist and educato...

393: TRUE or FALSE: Is Milk Bad For You? w/ Dr. Bill Schindler

Dairy is often labeled as inflammatory and unhealthy—but is that really true? With rising dairy intolerance and the popularity of plant-based alternatives, it’s easy to wonder if milk still belongs in our diets. Traditional dairy like yogurt, kefir, and cheese have nourished cultures for thousands of years, yet modern processing may play a role in today’s issues. Joining me is Dr. Bill Schindler, archaeologist, primitive technologist, and chef, who studies ancestral diets and runs the Modern ...

392: Improving Hidradenitis Suppurativa HS Treatment With GLP1 Weight Loss Meds (NEW RESEARCH) w/ Dr. Steven Daveluy

Best known for weight loss and blood sugar control, GLP-1 drugs might also reduce the stubborn inflammation behind hidradenitis suppurativa (HS). Early research shows they may impact key inflammatory pathways—and even improve HS symptoms (including painful skin boils) without major weight loss. But big questions remain: How do they interact with current HS treatments? Who can prescribe them? What happens if you stop? Dermatologist and HS expert Dr. Steven Daveluy returns to unpack the science...

It’s official—I’m no longer gluten-free. After 16 years of strict adherence (and evangelizing about the benefits of a gluten free diet), I’ve reintroduced gluten into my life. It’s been a surprising and liberating part of my healing journey. In this episode, I share my personal story of overcoming fear around gluten and offer guidance for those considering reintroductions—especially if you’re gluten-sensitive.

390: Histamine Intolerance, MCAS + Mastocytosis: What’s The Difference? w/ Dr. Mariana Castells

Histamine intolerance is typically mild, but Mastocytosis is the most severe form of mast cell disorder—often taking nearly a decade to diagnose. Symptoms can affect multiple organs, from rashes and GI issues to life-threatening anaphylaxis, and standard treatments like low-histamine diets and antihistamines often fail. Many doctors aren’t familiar with testing or treatment options for mast cell issues like Mastocytosis and MCAS. Today, I’m joined by Dr. Mariana Castells, a leading expert in ...

What’s the best treatment for Topical Steroid Withdrawal (TSW)? While answers are still emerging, we’re getting closer. TSW is a misunderstood, drug-induced condition that goes far beyond typical eczema. Many sufferers feel dismissed by doctors since there’s no formal diagnostic criteria and many dermatologists deny its existence. Yet symptoms like relentless itching, flaking, insomnia, “zingers,” and even depression can be life-altering. In this episode, I speak with Dr. Olivia Hsu Friedman—...

In this episode, I walk you through my stool test results, ChatGPT’s interpretation, and lastly – the protocol suggested by ChatGPT. Before ...

Think you might have IBS or Small Intestine Bacterial Overgrowth—but diet changes aren’t helping? There’s a lesser-known type of SIBO that’s often missed: Hydrogen Sulfide SIBO. Unlike the hydrogen or methane types, hydrogen sulfide is a neurotoxin that can trigger strange symptoms—like nerve pain, bladder irritation, or even fibromyalgia-like pain. It also plays a major role in the gut-skin connection. But it often doesn’t show up on standard SIBO tests, making it hard to diagnose. I’m joine...

Wondering if parasites are behind your skin or health issues? With social media buzzing about parasite cleanses, it’s easy to feel confused (or even panicked). The truth is, not all parasites are harmful—some may even regulate your immune system. But others can silently contribute to chronic hives, cystic acne, and food sensitivities. And a poorly done parasite cleanse can backfire. Joining me is Robin Foroutan, MS, RDN, an integrative nutritionist and stealth pathogen expert, to help you sep...

Peptides for skin and gut health are all the rage—but do they really work?
