| Revolutionizing the approach to oral health with Dr. Emily Stein | 02 Jan 2025 | 01:00:36 | |
On today's episode, I'm joined by the brilliant Dr. Emily Stein, the founder of Teef Health (for pets) and Primal Health (for people). Her technology is revolutionizing the way we think about oral health and how we approach dysbiosis (disruption of the microbiome) of not only the mouth, but throughout the entire body. A healthy immune system starts with a healthy digestive system, and the first stop on the digestive tract train is the mouth! | |||
| Pilot episode- Who am I, and why am I here? | 28 Dec 2024 | 00:10:36 | |
This pilot is a brief introduction about myself, my pets, and my background in human and animal health services. You'll learn what my medicine specialty was before I realized that functional medicine is where I was destined to plant my feet and grow as a provider. You'll hear about the chronic conditions my pets suffered from before I turned to natural remedies, which allowed them to overcome those issues. And if you're watching, you'll see three of my furry beasts climbing on me and rattling the camera! Welcome to Raw Remedies podcast, I hope you'll enjoy this short intro. | |||

We also touch on the negative impact of Big Pharma, tips on transitioning pets to fresh food, and mention a little bit about the bird flu issue. | |||
| Using herbs, hugging trees, and a natural approach to GERD with Rita Hogan | 23 Jan 2025 | 01:00:07 | |
Let's be honest here, if you have a conversation with an herbalist and one of you DOESN'T talk about hugging trees, were you even talking to an herbalist?! | |||
| Oils & Omegas- the Good, the Bad & the Ugly | 30 Jan 2025 | 00:56:13 | |

| The impact of nutrition on every aspect of health with Dr. Cathy Alinovi | 06 Feb 2025 | 01:01:52 | |
Proper nutrition via a species appropriate diet is the foundation of EVERYTHING, impacting every aspect of health. Dr. Cathy Alinovi has known this for many years and it's the basis of her current practice at Healthy PAWsibilities Natural Pet Wellness Center. She's also a big advocate for transparency and carving out space in the pet food industry for the 'little guys', and I'm so glad we have her in our corner as executive director of Next Generation Pet Food Manufacturers Association – the only trade association that represents fresh pet food.

| Using ancient soil to combat the effects of glyphosate with Rebekah from ION | 13 Feb 2025 | 00:54:14 | |
Leaky gut and chronic GI issues seem to be their own pandemic lately, but the truth is that the damage has been slowly accumulating for many years! With the dissemination of glyphosate in the 1990s, we've seen a dizzying increase in the occurrence of GI issues, autoimmune conditions and more, and the link cannot be ignored. Luckily, companies like ION (Intelligence of Nature) have done the research and offer an ancient answer to this modern problem... | |||
| Regenerative ranching could save the cattle industry and our health with Melissa & Dakota of Solfed Ranch | 27 Feb 2025 | 00:53:35 | |
Regenerative ranching isn't as difficult or expensive as mainstream media makes it out to be- instead it just might be the single most effective way to reign in the contributions to global warming from conventional and feedlot cattle raising practices! Not only would it decrease those emissions, it's also more ethical, cleaner for the cattle and the environment, and results in a much better nutritional profile of the animal which we then consume. In addition, I'm excited for Melissa and Dakota to introduce Solfed Ranch and their brand new 100% grass fed and finished raw beef blend for dogs, formulated by none other than ME! Please note that I reveive no profits or compensation from sales of their products. I'm simply excited to announce that an excellent new recipe for our dogs is soon to be on the market, so be sure to get on their wait list today (links below).

| Taking a holistic approach to chronic disease with Krysta Fox & Bruce the pug! | 20 Feb 2025 | 01:03:12 | |
Chronic disease management can be exhausting, confusing and frustrating, espeically when only taking the conventional approach. Unfortunately western medicine focuses on suppressing symptoms which can make the underlying condition worse over time, rather than supporting the body based on the expression of disease in order to maintain wellness as much as possible. Krysta goes deep into her management of Bruce's chronic conditions that she's been handling for 10 years, far exceeding the expectations of those who told her he wouldn't live more than a year past his initial spinal injury in 2014! Her trials and tribulations have taught her so much, and now she brings that knowledge to you and your fur baby. https://www.instagram.com/pugandhoundpetapothecary/ | |||

In this week’s episode of the Raw Remedies Podcast, I sat down with Pam from Purrrfectly Holistic to dig into why so many pet parents are asking the wrong questions when it comes to their pets' health, why those questions might be keeping you stuck, and what you should be asking instead.

We dive deep into why simply covering up symptoms won’t bring true healing for our pets—or for us. You’ll hear powerful stories about how stress, environment, and even our own energy can affect the animals we love.
