Dr. Zachary Spiritos is a Duke-trained neurogastroenterologist and founder of EverBetter Medicine, a telehealth clinic focused on complex digestive disorders, dysautonomia, and chronic illness. His approach combines clinical expertise with patient education to uncover root causes and support long-term healing through gut and nervous system regulation.

WHAT WE TALK ABOUT

• How Dr. Spiritos became a neurogastroenterologist and what software issues really mean in gut health.

• Why so many patients with celiac, IBS, or mold exposure develop lingering neuro and gut symptoms long after removing the trigger.

• The science of visceral hypersensitivity when the brain can’t turn off pain signals from the gut.

• What the vagus nerve really does, how it drives parasympathetic regulation, and why nervous system resets matter more than elimination diets.

• The connection between trauma, stress, gut motility, and why nervous system overload leads to unpredictable GI flares.

• Why MCAS (mast cell activation syndrome) is often the hidden root of multi-system symptoms, especially in patients with mold, Lyme, or long COVID.

• How MCAS presents in the gut, brain, skin, lungs, and heart and why these patients are often misdiagnosed or gaslit.

• What works: H1 and H2 blockers, nervous system calmers, and low-toxin living and why even a shampoo swap can change everything.

• Understanding POTS and dysautonomia and why it often coexists with mast cell dysfunction.

• Why Dr. Spiritos avoids microbiome testing and instead focuses on history, symptom clusters, and foundational healing strategies.

• The real pillars of gut-brain repair: nervous system regulation, inflammation reduction, sleep, light, fiber, community, and compassion.

His work focuses on enhancing energy, longevity, and mental clarity through sustainable lifestyle shifts rooted in evidence-based principles.

WHAT WE TALK ABOUT

• How Tom’s childhood battle with leukemia sparked a lifelong passion for natural health and functional fitness.

• What methylation actually is, why it matters, and how genes like MTHFR, COMT, and CBS affect detox, mood, and resilience.

• The dangers of synthetic folic acid and why 40–60% of people can’t process it, leading to anxiety, miscarriages, and more.

• Why eating healthy isn’t always enough how foods like avocados, fermented veggies, and even folic acid-fortified grains can backfire if your genes are sensitive.

• How genetic testing can reveal which methylation pathways need extra support and how to balance B vitamins, sulfur, and glutathione.

• The connection between histamine overload, MAOA variants, neuroinflammation, and anxiety and how your gut drives most neurotransmitter production.

• Why adrenal fatigue is real, how chronic stress rewires your cortisol output, and what conventional medicine gets wrong about burnout.

• The three pillars of recovery: strength training, sleep, and protein and why they’re the foundation for every healing protocol.

• Why group workouts, calorie restriction, and cardio may make you feel worse if your genes and hormones aren’t supported.

• What genetic resilience really means, and how to rebuild yours with a personalized, root-cause approach to fitness and health.

MEET THE GUEST
Dr. Stephanie Peacock, DC, is a holistic doctor with a fully virtual consulting practice specializing in mold toxicity, SIBO & mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS). Her passion for holistic health stems all the way back to her US national team swimming career, then through navigating the complexities of her own chronic illness case due to mold toxicity, and now to present in helping others achieve full vitality again by supporting the body's innate healing capacity.

WHAT WE TALK ABOUT

• Stephanie’s decade-long struggle with SIBO and how mold toxicity was the hidden trigger all along.

• Why SIBO is often mistaken for IBS, and the difference between hydrogen, methane, and hydrogen sulfide dominant types.

• How symptoms like bloating, reflux, constipation, diarrhea, fatigue, and even body pain connect to specific SIBO types.

• What the breath test actually measures, why it's still the gold standard, and how to properly prepare for it.

• The pros and cons of treatment options like Rifaximin, herbal protocols, and elemental diets and how to choose the right one.

• Why SIBO recurs for 2 out of 3 people, and the critical mistakes most people (and doctors) make when trying to treat it.

• The biggest root causes of SIBO: food poisoning, vagus nerve dysfunction, mold exposure, trauma, gut surgery, and slowed motility.

• How GLP-1s, antibiotics, and environmental toxins disrupt gut flow and create conditions for chronic overgrowth.

• Why nervous system healing, visceral manipulation, and limbic retraining are just as important as killing protocols.

• Why low-FODMAP diets don’t cure SIBO and how symptom suppression often delays real healing.

• Real patient stories showing how environment, trauma, and structural work can resolve SIBO for good.

Dr. Mary Pardee is a Naturopathic Medical Doctor in Los Angeles specializing in preventive medicine and longevity. With a degree in human nutrition and experience in exercise physiology research for the US government, she offers a comprehensive approach to health. Dr. Mary earned her doctorate from Bastyr University and founded modern med, a practice offering in-person and telemedicine care. Her mission is to close the healthspan-lifespan gap so patients live longer, healthier, more vibrant lives. She is licensed in California and Colorado.

WHAT WE TALK ABOUT

• Dr. Pardee’s functional and integrative approach and why she focuses on gut-brain-hormone interactions to guide women through peri- and menopause.

• Common hormone imbalances in women 35+: low progesterone, estrogen dominance, sluggish thyroid—and how they affect sleep, metabolism, mood.

• Why fatigue, bloating, mood swings, irregular cycles, and night sweats are often missed or misdiagnosed.

• Using at-home hormone tests and functional labs to get a true picture—beyond outdated bloodwork.

• The gut’s role in hormone balance: how estrogen is processed in the microbiome and how gut inflammation disrupts cortisol and insulin.

• Why perimenopause can be a bigger hormonal rollercoaster than menopause, and how stress, nutrient gaps, and toxins fuel the chaos.

• Her take on bioidentical hormone therapy—who it helps, when lifestyle change may be enough, and how to use it wisely.

• How to support mitochondria, adrenal recovery, and blood-sugar stability to ease symptoms.

• Go-to tools for nervous-system regulation—breathwork, vagus-nerve stimulation, and why over-intense workouts can backfire.

• The link between hormone health, trauma, and the gut-brain axis—and why healing must address all three.

• Practical advice for women who feel dismissed or overwhelmed: what to test and how to build a hormone-supportive lifestyle that lasts.
