Triumph Over Illness: How FDN Changed My Life w/ Patty Picinich, FDNP

Episode 384

Tuesday, October 1, 2024 • Duration 49:32

In this episode, we chat with Patty Picinich, a fierce advocate for Functional Diagnostic Nutrition (FDN). She opens up about her personal health struggles—think gut issues, mold toxicity, the works—and how they pushed her to dive deep into functional diagnostics. Patty talks about how FDN completely turned things around for her health, and now she's paying it forward, helping busy women (you know the type!) take control of their wellness too. We also get into the magic of holistic approaches, the power of diet, and why trusting your gut (literally and figuratively) is key when traditional medicine falls short. You don't want to miss this one! 😄

The Fine Line Between Orthorexia And Eating Clean w/ Carly Faye Loewenthal, FDNP

Episode 294

Thursday, December 14, 2023 • Duration 53:17

Orthorexia is defined as "an obsession with eating foods that one considers healthy". At first glance, this definition could trigger a variety of emotions for those of us in the functional healthcare space. That is, if you've dealt with chronic health issues yourself and listen to a podcast like this one, I'm sure at SOME POINT you'd say you had an obsession with eating healthy foods (and maybe you still do). The question is, where does the line get drawn between an obsession that could be considered a passion versus an obsession that could be considered a clinically diagnosable issue? Our guest today, Carly Loewenthal, has all the answers!

Carly Faye Loewenthal is a master-level NLP certified Life Coach, and a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner. Carly runs a brain-based, trauma-informed business where she takes her clients on a transformational journey to reclaim the personal power hidden in their layers of symptoms to unlock a future of endless possibilities as they level up on the other side. Carly specializes in supporting women who struggle with disordered eating and uses a variety of support tools like functional lab testing, subconscious reprogramming, and personalized coaching. She is also certified as a master in NLP, Quantum Time Techniques & hypnosis, and holds a Master of Science in Education with 12+ years of experience as an educator.

When Genes Really ARE The Problem (FAP) w/ Michael Caprio

Episode 293

Monday, December 11, 2023 • Duration 55:17

One of our favorite parts of bringing The Health Detective Podcast to our listeners and viewers is that we get to highlight guests who deal with conditions that many of us would otherwise never hear about. Today's guest on the show, Michael Caprio, deals with a genetic condition that you very likely haven't heard of.

At just eighteen years old, author Michael Caprio was diagnosed with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis, a rare genetic form of colorectal cancer that accounts for only 0.5 percent of all colorectal cancer cases in the United States. After enduring two life-saving operations, Michael has since made a full recovery and has become an author, advocate, leader, change-maker, and podcast guest in the spaces of mental health and colorectal cancer.

Although this story is bit different than the ones we would typically bring on the show, we think it is important to not only give a spotlight for those dealing with conditions such as FAP in silence, but for the listeners and viewers to find inspiration in the incredible resiliency and determination that people like Michael display.

We hope you enjoy this episode, and if you have an questions, you can always reach out to us directly @fdntraining on Instagram.

Why You Should Source Your Meat In America w/ Nigel O’Quinn, FDNP

Episode 291

Monday, December 4, 2023 • Duration 55:54

There are MANY amazing brands out there nowadays that bring us supplements/products with one of nature's superfoods - organ meats. However, for our USA-based listeners (and, frankly, for MOST of our listeners), these organ meats are NOT coming from the country where the products are sold. This is not inherently bad per se, but wouldn't it be even better if we could source these superfoods right from our own backyard?

Today's guest on the Health Detective Podcast, Nigel O'Quinn, is a certified Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner and founder of Higher Healths. Through Higher Healths, he is solving this sourcing problem for Americans and Canadians as we speak.

His company is currently the ONLY ONE OUT THERE which specifically sources organ meats based on the country that the consumer lives in, and he is currently serving both American and Canadian consumers.

In addition to hearing about his company, on this episode, you'll hear about Nigel's personal health story, learn about the benefits of eating "nose to tail", and discover easy ways to make connections with local farmers to get the best food possible for you and your family.

As always, if you have any questions, please reach out to us @fdntraining.com

About Nigel:

Nigel O’Quinn is a lifetime health and fitness enthusiast, wanting to understand what makes a human operate and thrive is what started his nutrition journey, albeit in the worst direction at first within the College education programs. This led to his deterioration of good health which forced him to look outside of the food pyramid for a proper nutrition education. Nigel is now focused on connecting people to real food by getting nutrient dense organ meats back into the diet that had been left out. Higher Healths now operates in both the USA and in Canada working with regenerative farmers that have grass fed and grass finished programs for optimal care of land, animal, and health.

Common Symptoms AREN’T NORMAL w/ Claudine Francois, CPC, CTNC, FPC, FDN-P

Thursday, November 30, 2023 • Duration 52:37

Are you a Type A, go-getter woman who is constantly on the verge of burnout? Crushing your corporate job, but also crushing your health at the same time? Our guest today on The Health Detective Podcast, Claudine Francois, knows these feelings all too well.

She knows these feelings so well, in fact, that she was forced to change her life plans completely (and thankfully, for the better) to get her health back. Better yet, she used her career-focused, driven personality to create a successful health coaching business where she now helps other busy, driven women get out of the cycle of chronic illness/disease.

Since we know our audience well, we can say with confidence that Claudine is SO RELATEABLE to so many of our listeners. We hope Claudine's story not only helps inspire you to take control of your health if you've been suffering, but also to create a career for yourself that you love.

About Claudine:

Claudine Francois, a Board-Certified Functional Medicine & Holistic Health Practitioner, is a trailblazer in guiding high-achieving women to transcend burnout and embrace vibrant living.

As a former CFO of a multinational company, Claudine intimately understands the toll of stress and its effects on health. Her transformative journey through functional medicine and lifestyle shifts led her to become a dedicated advocate for women's well-being.

Claudine's expertise lies in uncovering the root causes of chronic issues that often elude traditional medicine. Through sophisticated functional lab tests and a holistic approach, she crafts personalized protocols that empower her clients to reclaim energy, clarity, and vitality.

Why Four Registered Nurses Choose To Become FDNs w/ Sabrina Bailey, Kristy Roderick, Tina Weiss, and Emily Horton

Episode 289

Monday, November 20, 2023 • Duration 01:00:01

One of the top questions we are frequently asked here at Functional Diagnostic Nutrition on a near-daily basis is, 'What types of people/professionals go through your course?' The reality is, ANYONE can go through the FDN program as long as they have the desire to learn and study, as well as the willingness to help others and walk the walk. As expected, we have all types of people with every educational background imaginable going through our program.

Historically, the FDN certification has attracted many health coaches, nutrition experts, and fitness enthusiasts. Over the last several years, though, we've seen a new wave of 'western' medicine practitioners pursuing our course. This isn't because one philosophy is bad and the other is good. What we've heard firsthand from these individuals is that they are pursuing more functional philosophies due to the increasing number of chronically ill patients who simply aren't being fully helped by western medicine alone.

With all that said, we wanted to share this exciting interview with FOUR nurses (all friends) who decided to pursue the FDN program together to start a brand new business where they serve their clients using functional medicine principles. Through this interview, we hope to help in two ways:

Assist other western medicine practitioners in making an informed decision as to whether our program could benefit THEM.
Help the standard practitioner better understand the unique problems that our western medicine friends face daily.

We hope you enjoy what will likely be our biggest interview ever (big because we have FIVE total people on this one)! As always, if you have any questions, shoot us a message @fdntraining on Instagram.

Are you a nurse, doctor, or other western medicine practitioner considering adding FDN to your credentials? Please book a free call with one of our Course Advisors at fdntraining.com/call to get all your questions answered. Where to find the Revive Functional Wellness team:

Got Mold? w/ Jason Earle

Episode 289

Thursday, November 16, 2023 • Duration 57:38

On this episode of The Health Detective Podcast, Detective Ev, FDNP is having a very timely conversation with Jason Earle, founder of "Got Mold".

When Jason realized that a moldy childhood home was the cause of his extreme allergies and asthma, he decided to give up his successful career on Wall Street to pursue the "healthy home" business to make sure the things that occurred to him and his family did not happen to others.

Over the last two decades, Jason has personally performed countless sick building investigations, solving many medical mysteries along the way, helping thousands of families recover their health and peace of mind. He has featured or appeared on Good Morning America, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, Entrepreneur, Wired, and more.

We would NOT consider this your average mold podcast. In fact, our live audience and team found it so insightful, that we are bringing Jason back on soon for a second round.

For this first round, though, we'll be discussing the many health complications seen from mold exposure, why some of the most standard forms of home testing are NOT enough, and what action steps you can take TODAY to start making things better if you suspect you have mold.
