Friday, June 13, 2025 • Duration 19:19

Send us a text

Functional Diagnostic Nutrition offers a comprehensive approach to tackling IBS and IBD symptoms by identifying physiological root factors through specialized testing and holistic interventions.

• The concept of "metabolic chaos" as a way to understand escalating, complex symptoms

• How innate intelligence (similar to qi or prana) governs our body's complex operating system

Episode 47: The Truth About Sourdough: Why It's Not The Gut-Friendly Option You Think

Season 1 · Episode 47

Friday, May 30, 2025 • Duration 22:25

Send us a text

Food sensitivities are often overlooked as significant contributors to chronic health issues, with many people continuing to consume trigger foods like wheat and dairy "occasionally" while dismissing their impact on symptoms. Even small amounts of foods your body doesn't tolerate can trigger immune responses lasting up to 90-100 days, requiring complete abstinence for healing.

• Food sensitivity reactions aren't always immediate digestive symptoms - they can manifest as headaches, skin issues, depression, anxiety, fatigue, joint pain or cognitive problems
• Sourdough bread isn't a safe alternative for wheat-sensitive individuals despite the fermentation process
• Most therapeutic diets remove all grains initially to allow gut healing
• Food sensitivity testing like the Wheat Zoomer can provide valuable data, especially for skeptical clients
• Addressing hidden gut stressors like bacterial overgrowth, digestive insufficiency, and infections alongside food triggers accelerates healing
• Gut healing takes significant time and discipline but allows for potential food reintroductions as the body recovers
• The most reliable test for food tolerance is removing triggers completely, allowing symptoms to resolve, then carefully reintroducing foods

Season 1 · Episode 45

Friday, May 2, 2025 • Duration 19:09

Send us a text

This client case study reveals how functional gut testing uncovered the root causes of post-cancer treatment symptoms including brain fog, fatigue, and pain, leading to dramatic health improvements through targeted interventions.

• Gluten sensitivity often presents as joint pain, fatigue and brain inflammation rather than gut symptoms
• Upper GI support addressed insufficient enzyme production indicated by test results

Episode 44: Nervous System Regulation: Unlocking Gut Healing Beyond Diet, with Kelly Hale

Season 1 · Episode 44

Friday, April 25, 2025 • Duration 56:37

Send us a text

Kelly Hale, occupational therapist and movement specialist, reveals how nervous system regulation is the missing piece in gut healing. She shares her journey from traditional OT to developing a brain-body-biome approach that helps clients release emotions stored in organs and tissues.

• Chronic stress keeps the body in fight-flight-freeze, making proper digestion physiologically impossible
• Developmental movements we experience as babies lay the foundation for nervous system regulation throughout life
• Specific organs hold particular emotions – liver stores anger, ileocecal valve holds complaints, cardiac sphincter harbors worry
• Traditional talk therapy works well for some, but somatic approaches provide another entry point for releasing stored trauma
• Simple movement patterns can help regulate the nervous system without complex equipment or extensive training
• Our bodies whisper before they scream with pain – learning to listen to subtle cues prevents bigger issues
• Cross-body movements are particularly effective for bringing the nervous system back to regulation
• The sensory experience of food and environment plays a crucial role in nervous system health

Elizabeth Bruckner, acupuncturist and author of The Homesteader Mindset, shares how traditional food skills transformed her health after decades as a vegetarian left her bedridden with chronic illness.

• Modern homesteading means creating sustainable living through intentional choices, regardless of where you live

• Both Elizabeth and Courtney recovered from serious health issues by reintroducing animal proteins after years of vegetarianism
• Traditional cooking methods help break down anti-nutrients and make foods more digestible
• Fermented dairy is often tolerable even for those who can't digest regular dairy products
