We often think of stress as a mental health issue, but stress has a direct biochemical impact on your thyroidâand itâs a HUGE factor in trigger...
 Did you know most doctors wonât test for Hashimotoâs in their hypothyroid patients because it doesnât change their course of treatment? Regardless of why youâre hypothyroid, theyâre going to do one thing and one thing only: put you on thyroid medication.Â
This is a massive disservice to us hypothyroid warriors given the fact that roughly 95% of hypothyroid cases are caused by hashimotoâs (if youâre unfamiliar, hashimotoâs is an autoimmune disease where the body attacks your thyroid gland).Â
If we know why our thyroid is malfunctioning, we...
If youâve ever dealt with stubborn skin issues like I have, you know how frustrating it can be to try product after product, only to end up right back where you started. Thatâs why Iâm so excited about todayâs guest, Dr. Barbara Paldus.
Sheâs not just a skincare founderâsheâs a Stanford-trained scientist and biotech powerhouse whoâs spent her career solving complex problems, from detecting greenhouse gases to improving vaccine production.
But when her son developed severe allergies to common skincare ingredients, she turned her focus to...
 Arguably the most common questions I get from both clients and strangers on the internet alike are about supplements. So here we are, finally dedicating a whole episode to them.Â
But before we dive in, I want you to know why itâs taken me this long to cover such a hot topic.Â
Supplements can not magically compensate for poor nutrition, chronic stress, inadequate sleep, or a sedentary lifestyle. They exist to lend a little âoomfâ, a little extra support, a little health bump if you will. They can fill some gaps left by poor farming practic...

Imagine you were experiencing daily migraines and I said, âJust stop having headaches.â
Or you were dealing with chronic constipation and I said, âJust make yourself go.â
Or you had debilitating fatigue and I said, âJust ignore it, itâll go away.â
I hope you would look at me like I was insane. Because thatâs not how you treat symptoms. You donât just ignore them or will them away, you get to the root of them.
Well what if I told you cravings are a symptom. Not a personality flaw.
Itâs true. Your body canât just whisper in your ear whatâ...
If I told you there was a pill that would help you lose weight, reduce cravings, improve blood sugar balance, slow signs of aging, give you energy, boost your mood, aid in recovery, increase immune function, enhance learning, memory, and motor skills, improve exercise performance, detoxify your body, and potentially prevent diseases like Alzheimer's and dementia, you'd probably be jumping in line willing to pay a pretty penny for that pill. Am I right?
The good news is you don't have to pay a dime and you don't have to swallow a pill. Turns...
 If you're hypothyroid, standard weight loss advice probably pisses you off...
Some gym bro on the Internet is telling you to just eat less, workout harder, track your macros, and only eat during x hours.
Been there, done that. It isnât. fucking. working.
In fact, if you're following that advice, it's probably pushing you deeper into your plateau. But we'll get to that in a minute.
This is why I decided to create my âWhy Canât I Lose Weight Nutrition Intensiveâ. To not only give clarity as to why everything youâve tried hasnât worked. Bu...
In this 3-part series I'm taking the confusion and overwhelm out of nutrition by sharing some universal truths about the three macronutrients: protein, carbs, and, fat (and how too much or too little of each will impact the body).
Plus we'll dive into some very basic habits anyone and everyone would benefit from adopting!Â
In case you missed it, here's part 1 on protein and here's part 2 on fat, pop on back and listen before diving into today's episode!
Carbs are broken down into glucose in the body making it our ...
Do you ever feel like your body has turned against you?
I know I have.Â
Through hypothyroidism, hashimotos, acne, leaky gut, SIBO, h pylori, mold, candida, and hair loss, my own health journey has felt like a torturous game of wack-a-mole. As soon as one symptom drops off another pops up, and it's been hard not to resent my body for it.Â
But if there's one thing I've learned as a functional nutrition practitioner and patient it's this: symptoms, be they fatigue, brain fog, constipation, diarrhea, gas, bloating, skin...
