I’m excited to introduce you to Dr. Sam Shay. Sam’s personal health journey began at a young age, facing chronic unwellness from severe fatigue, anxiety, digestive problems, chronic pain, insomnia, depression, and poor nutrition.

He took control of his health as a teenager, dedicating his life to natural medicine. Today, Sam is known as the friendly "lab nerd," specializing in functional lab and genetic analysis to deliver data-driven results.

Sam is a dedicated chiropractor and functional medicine practitioner who specializes in solving health puzzles for busy, health-conscious parents, entrepreneurs, and adults on the spectrum. Sam’s mission is to help individuals exit survival mode and re-enter community life with increased resilience and energy, utilizing the power of functional genetics.

In our conversation, you'll hear about:

• His health struggles and the pivotal moments that led him to alternative and functional medicine.
• His journey from being chronically unwell to becoming a health practitioner.
• How he used functional genetics to address his own health challenges, including severe inflammation, dietary issues, and genetic predispositions.
• How genetics influence health, but are not the only influence.
• How higher-order genetic drivers, like genes regulating inflammation, free radical scavenging, liver detox capacity, and vitamin D utilization, have a more significant influence on overall health than and do the genes for breast cancer, Alzheimer’s or other conditions
• Sam’s 10 pillars of health framework, which helps identify and address the root causes of chronic health issues
• And insights into genetic testing and genetic analysis and how it can be used to create personalized health strategies

Sam's story is a powerful testament to the importance of taking personal agency over one's health and the incredible benefits of functional medicine and genetics.

Lastly, Sam is also a stand-up comic who uses comedy as "edutainment" on his Youtube Channel, along with his other functional testing teachings. His primary focus in comedy is to educate the public on what it's like to be on the Spectrum, specifically Aspergers.

No matter the health challenges you face, Sam’s journey is an inspiring reminder that recovery and well-being are within reach.

How did a New York mom transform her multiple sclerosis symptoms with lifestyle changes?

 

In this episode of the Rebuilding My Health Radio podcast, Agota Nawroth shares her journey of significantly reducing the symptoms of multiple sclerosis (MS) through lifestyle changes and a mindset. And as a recent author of the book, Beating Multiple Sclerosis, she offers insights into some of the ways that others are also healing MS.

 

In this episode, you’ll hear…

1. Agota's journey from a life-altering multiple sclerosis diagnosis to a life filled with hope and vitality.

2. The dietary changes that became a cornerstone of Agota's wellness plan and dramatically improved her MS symptoms.

3. The game-changing steps she took to minimize her MS symptoms.

4. The transformative power of a positive mindset and how Agota cultivated resilience.

5. The importance of listening to your body and responding accordingly.

6. How Agota's inspiring journey led her to write a book and become a beacon of hope for those seeking to take control of their health and well-being.

 

About Agota Nawroth

Agota Nawroth is a devoted mother, a certified health coach, and someone who has faced the unique challenges of living with multiple sclerosis (MS). She is also the author and publisher of the enlightening book “Beating Multiple Sclerosis,” which not only shares her own journey but also chronicles the stories of dozens of others who are conquering this disease. She is the founder of www.BeatingMultipleSclerosis.com, an online community committed to healing. You can find her on Instagram and YouTube at @BeatingMyMS.

 

Agota's MS Journey: A Life-Changing Diagnosis

Agota's journey with MS began in March 2019, a life-altering moment that turned her world upside down. “I was diagnosed in 2019, and now, looking back, I feel like I'm a different person,” she says. “So many things have changed in my life, and I think I can say the same for anyone diagnosed with a disease like multiple sclerosis."

 

In those early days, she turned to Instagram as a way to document her journey, share her experiences, and find hope. Her platform, now known as "Beating My MS," quickly evolved into a source of inspiration and education for others battling MS.

 

A Life Unraveled: The Sudden Onset of MS

Agota's MS diagnosis came seemingly out of the blue. She had recently returned from her honeymoon and was eagerly preparing to start a family. Her initial symptoms were anxiety and unexplained depression, making it difficult to identify the impending storm. It wasn't long before she experienced numbness in her forehead and hearing loss in her left ear.

 

At first, Agota attributed these symptoms to various factors such as altitude or the recent plane ride after a trip to Colorado.

 

Her search led her through various doctors, including an ear specialist who couldn't find any definitive answers. Concerned that her symptoms could be connected to her brain, she asked for an MRI.

 

When the MRI results came in, Agota received a call urging her to see a neurologist immediately, as she might have multiple sclerosis. 

 

Agota's initial reaction was to turn to the internet, where she encountered a flood of information, some of which painted a grim picture of disability.

She confided, "I don't know, I just felt like my life was collapsing. That day, I couldn't stop crying."

 

A Determined Approach: Transforming Mindset and Lifestyle

In the face of this daunting diagnosis, Agota decided to take matters into her own hands. As she learned more about MS, she discovered that diet and lifestyle play pivotal roles in managing the condition.

 

She decided to start her journey to wellness by changing her diet and quickly realized the connection between her diet and her MS symptoms.

 

She noted, "I was feeling better once I started eating better. Every time I was eating pizza or gluten, like anything that contains gluten, I was feeling face numbness. So those were signs that I was listening to."

 

Initially, she began with dietary changes, eliminating gluten, dairy, refined sugar, and other potentially inflammatory foods. She focused on incorporating more fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins into her daily meals. This shift in her diet brought noticeable improvements in her health.

 

Beyond diet changes, she explored meditation as a means of reducing stress and promoting mental well-being. She admitted that, at first, meditation was a struggle, but she persevered, and it has now become a daily practice that brings peace and clarity to her life.

 

Agota also made the transition from intense workouts to gentler forms of exercise, such as yoga and walking, which were kinder to her body and helped her stay active while managing her condition.

 

Sharing the Journey: Building a Supportive Community

As Agota implemented these lifestyle changes and embraced a proactive mindset, she felt compelled to share her journey with others who were going through similar challenges.

 

On Instagram, where she inspires tens of thousands of others with MS, Agota's posts are filled with inspiring interviews and insights. Over time, Agota's platform has grown into a beacon of hope, proving that lifestyle changes and a resilient mindset can significantly improve the quality of life for those with MS.

 

Recently, Agota published a collection of inspiring MS success stories in Beating Multiple Sclerosis. It serves as a valuable resource and source of inspiring for those with MS and other chronic health conditions.

 

Agota's remarkable transformation through lifestyle changes and an unwavering positive mindset is a testament to the potential within us all.

Today I’m bringing you an inspiring story from a woman who found her way out of a life-altering health setback.

After a series of major life stressors, Dr. Christine Smith saw her health unravel with injuries, hormone and skin issues, adrenal dysfunction, extreme food sensitivities and allergies, and mold toxicity.

As a chiropractor and functional medicine practitioner, she threw everything she knew of at the problem and sought help from her peers. But ultimately, to heal, she found she had to go inward and reach a sense of feeling safer in her body - with meditation.

In this episode, we discuss…

• How physical and emotional stressors compounded to gradually erode Dr. Christine’s health
• How stress affected her digestion, hormones, adrenals, skin, and more
• Why throwing more supplements at your body may not be the best avenue
• How she used diet or food as a tool to control inflammation
• How she realized that healing had to come from within
• How meditation helped her feel safer in her body
• Her experience with ketamine therapy for addressing trauma

Dr. Christine Smith has focused her work on seeing the whole person through personalized, integrative healthcare and regularly works with other trusted providers to create holistic care plans. Her path has included many experiences outside the straight academic path, including working in different healthcare systems abroad, leading her to where she is today.

As a Functional Medicine Practitioner and Doctor of Chiropractic with a background in Cognitive Neuroscience, she specializes in Holistic Injury Recovery and Chronic Inflammation Prevention to help active people come back stronger, uncover hidden injuries and prevent re-injury. She does this by teaching clients how to use recovery time as a gift to restructure lifestyle priorities, to learn to speak the language of their body through education rather than medication, and heal beyond the scars.

Find her online and on YouTube.

If you have struggled with digestive challenges, skin issues, or anxiety, then you don’t want to miss today’s episode.

I'm talking with Nicole Lavery, who finally solved three decades of health struggles via a natural route. Today, she’s talking specifically about parasites, which are a very common cause of digestive symptoms and a host of other symptoms.

Nicole is a former ballerina turned writer and holistic wellness coach, based outside of Boulder, Colorado. After spending the better part of 3 decades battling IBS and a conventional health approach that left her without answers, she turned to functional medicine and Eastern methodologies – thus giving her the root cause answer she had been looking for: parasites. In addition to overcoming her gut challenges, Nicole also made the decision to have several preventive surgeries in 2021 and 2022 to offset her high risk (+45%) for breast and ovarian cancer, thus allowing her to take control of her health and related health anxiety that had dominated so much of her life previously. Hers is a story about digging in deeper to find answers, honing in on intuition, and leveraging a holistic approach in order to feel better - mind, body, and soul.

 

In this episode, we discuss…

• What Nicole’s early health struggles looked like
• Her search for answers and how she found them outside of conventional medicine
• The gut infections and dysbiosis behind her symptoms
• How she uncovered and treated parasites
• The link between parasites and mood
• The parasite protocol that worked for her and her change in symptoms
• And how Nicole navigated proactive medical decisions because of a family history of cancer

 

You’ll take away fascinating insights on the role of parasites in Nicole’s journey and our overall health.

 

You can find Nicole online, on Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn.  

 

Download Nicole’s free Parasites 101 Guide (use the password rebuildingmyhealth). It’s a brief yet comprehensive overview of how parasites might be at the root cause of your symptoms, along with helpful hints regarding cleansing and ongoing maintenance. 

 

And be sure to schedule a complimentary 30-minute discovery call with Nicole to take the next steps to work through any existing gut health or stress management issues you may be facing.
