In this episode I’m going to share how I use mineral analysis to dig deeper into the ‘cholesterol’ story. It goes much deeper than the information and suggested 'solutions' we receive from a regular doctor's visit. I offer an alternative corrective path to medication suppression.

We really need to know it's possible for the body to heal and to prevent and not feel prey to being victims of genetics or our bodies.

In this episode, I'm talking about the health of your kidneys. Most of us take our kidneys for granted every single day. We don't really think about them until one day something goes wrong, like kidney stones for example. It's important to know in advance that the kidneys need minerals, not medication.

The kidneys maintain mineral and healthy fluid balance.
But you've got to give them the raw ingredients to work with so they don't struggle to do their job.
✅Kidneys need hydration to be ON POINT.
True hydration is water plus minerals
Dehydration concentrates calcium and other minerals in the urine.
✅Water follows salt. Salt has to be ON POINT.
Real salt consumed for your daily functioning needs.
✅Magnesium has to be ON POINT.
The kidney has a vital role in magnesium homeostasis, deficiency (which is common)causes them to struggle

In this episode, I talk you through the difference between hair analysis and blood analysis.
Hair analysis (HTMA) and blood analysis are unique and measure different areas of the body. Since HTMA is less familiar, I thought I'd expound on how it offers a window into the cells to help balance body chemistry.
Listen to Episode #78 Hair Analysis vs Blood Analysis : Find A Joy To Be Me on iTunes, iHeartRadio, Stitcher or Spotify
Modern medicine is unfamiliar with hair analysis because it's more of a corrective path to health versus diagnostic. We have to remember the allopathic model is very directly tied to a corrupt system with a focus on prescribing medication and surgery primarily. They are not trained in preventative medicine.
Nutritional Therapy centers on the belief that real health can be achieved through a holistic and bio-individual approach to nutrition and lifestyle.This functional approach to health focuses on restoring balance to the body through a nutrient dense diet, natur...
In this episode I talk more about thyroid metabolism and how to support with a systemic approach. As well as a focus on nutrients in, toxins out.
Listen to Episode #75: Understanding thyroid physiology and metabolism : Find A Joy To Be Me on iTunes, iHeartRadio, Stitcher or Spotify
Hair analysis shows additional and different information about thyroid activity than blood tests do and I feel it's incredibly valuable. Blood thyroid tests do not reveal much about thyroid physiology or metabolism. They usually only measure circulating hormones (T3 and T4) and pituitary stimulation of the thyroid (TSH). HTMA is excellent to help assess thyroid difficulties. It can indicate imbalances in many steps involved in thyroid hormone metabolism.
Imbalances can occur at any stage of the production or utilization of thyroid hormone. The concepts of hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism are incomplete and often misleading as they only relate to hormone production and release.

I'm finally getting around to getting all my past podcast episodes posted here on the blog for you. On the heels of my last episode; Let's Wake Up Your Thyroid, I'm digging in further on one of my favorite minerals.
In this episode, I'm sharing a primer on a key macro mineral that is crucial for women in burnout (with hypothyroidism). I share a little bit about how I've seen it trending low over the past 7 years seeing thousands of mineral analysis on clients/students. Why it's important to get enough in your diet daily and how. What it does for your whole systemic function and how it causes problems when it's deficient.
I referred back to episode 54 for more on minerals and thyroid health. As well, podcast episode 38 and 40 where I dug into vitamin D more so you can see if from a different perspective than the mainstream is currently discussing. Also, episodes 18-21 are all about copper and how it's become a big problem and how it deranges the mineral system.

Hey there! Have you been feeling off lately? Maybe you're exhausted all the time, or your weight's been creeping up for no reason? These could be signs that your thyroid isn't working quite right, and it's messing with your basic needs - you know, the stuff that keeps you going day to day.
In my latest podcast episode, I dive into something really exciting: the role of minerals in thyroid health. I think this could be a game-changer for so many of us dealing with thyroid issues.
Here's the thing: when your thyroid's out of whack, it doesn't just affect your physical health. It can make you feel unsafe in your own body, like you can't trust what's going on inside. And let's be real, that kind of stress can impact everything - your relationships, your self-esteem, even your ability to focus on bigger goals.
But here's where it gets interesting: I truly believe that mineral replacement therapy could be the n...
In this episode, I talk about how antibiotics have never been tested safe for the human microbiome. They are also one of the most toxic classes of drugs and doctors hand them out like candy.
It's time to be HONEST about this excess overuse of antibiotics, so we can make educated decisions and create a better path to support our health.

I'm very passionate about this after seeing hundreds of clients health harmed in the long run in part by excess use of antibiotics over the course of their lives.
We can do better. In fact, we must.
Antibiotics are a class of medications that can save lives (when used appropriately). However, antibiotics are extremely overprescribed and most are quite toxic.
They should be used as a last resort, not the first. Very often, simple, inexpensive natural methods of healing infections work well, with far fewer adverse effects.

It's no secret I've got a big beef with how we over recommend vitamin D supplements.
To be fair, I don't like hyping up any single nutrient as a god unto itself.
It's not how nature intended for us to receive our nutrition and it loses it's full spectrum benefits and turns into a hazard in the human system.
I shared a funny reel to show just how cult-y this whole excess vitamin D thing has gotten -watch it HERE.
You can also go back and read my past posts on the blog about what treating this one nutrient as a god unto itself can do when taken in excess by itself for too long.
Read; 'What you need to know to assess 'Vitamin D' more thoroughly' and 'How excessive vitamin D supplements can suppress thyroid function'.
I went on to share in an Instagram TV video, a few more big picture ways to view this whole excess D taking conundrum. I promise you don't have to be REACTIVE about vitamin D in light of all the excessive talk about it this past year.
You can start today with simple steps an...
While most of the population lives in fear and trusts the main stream narrative, I’ll just be over here benefiting from huge huge advances in technology and science in relation to the human microbiome.
Check out this video where I unbox a BiomeFX stool analysis and share what it is and why I love it.
To have a healthy microbiome is to have optimal health yet no one alive has perfected this yet and it’s no wonder. We are exposed to more chemicals and toxins than ever before and decreasing food diversity and quality.
If you’re one of the deep divers and you want to dig in to your microbiome to optimize your health, keep reading.
One of the most common trends I'm seeing in my practice as I review more BiomeFX results is low levels of good bacteria.
In ones microbiome a low diversity of good bacteria can cause more issues than high levels of pathogens 🦠
And it’s far more common.
It’s dysbiosis in the sense that the body does not have enough to work with for function and can set the body up ...
In this episode, I chat about how to prepare your skin to build your solar callous and stay safe in the sun. It's more about what you do before hand. This is an important part of life we can all improve and it will be important for the rest of our living days. I've got lots of tips so you can create a year round plan to enjoy the sun and stay safe out there!

Unfortunately we have created a fear of the sun in our culture. Not only that but we've created a bad habit of slathering ourselves with toxic sunscreen. Yet, we cannot thrive without the sun on our skin for various health benefits.
Really understanding safe sun exposure is about understanding how light interacts with our body and our cells.
We want to figure out how to do this as much as possible in micro doses so that we become more tolerant to sun exposure while also doing the least amount of damage. You've gotta. ...
