This episode is another solo episode with Christina! Christina starts by discussing skincare, nontoxic options to address and prevent blemishes, and a bit about her own personal history struggling with acne and scars. Then she discusses recent drama in the YouTube world and how the beauty industry on YouTube seems like it's crumbling.

This week I'm chatting with Scott Linde, founder of Sun Potion Transformational Foods. At a young age Scott became fascinated with plant medicines and experienced huge changes in his health after incorporating herbs and tonics into his life, so he decided to create Sun Potion to share them with the world. Sun Potion is a company dedicated to sharing the use of medicinal plants, superfoods, and tonic herbs with others, only sourcing organic and wildcrafted products that have never been chemically treated.

In this episode, Scott shares more about what led him to create Sun Potion and what it's like running a business behind the scenes. He discusses the importance of feeling connected with nature throughout his life as well as the problems with modern culture that is disconnected from nature and filled with toxins. Scott shares the story of how he first got into tonic herbs and was on the search for the perfect mucuna puriens. He talks all about how to use different potions, herbs, and adaptogens, how often to take them, and the best ones to start with. Scott also gives tips for what to try if you're getting off of coffee as well as the best herbs for hormones, energy, sleep, and other health concerns. We also discuss sourcing of ingredients, if "organic" really matters, how we feel about stevia, and much more!

You can find out more about Sun Potion and check out their full range of products by going to www.sunpotion.com.

This week I'm chatting with Darin Olien, co-founder of Barukas, founder of SuperLife, and first-ever health and wellness expert to be coined a "Superfood Hunter." Darin is a superfood expert, supplement formulator, and environmental activist who travels the planet to discover new and underutilized medicinal plants.

In this episode, Darin shares how he became a superfood hunter and what got him interested in learning about health and wellness to begin with. He talks about how being born at 3 pounds affected his health, and how that spurred an interest in optimizing the way he felt as he got older. He discusses some of the first health "trends" he ever tried, including the grapefruit diet and intermittent fasting. Darin also talks more about his experiences traveling and what it's like being in other cultures. He talks about what it's like meeting with leaders in other areas of the world, and some of the practices that Americans should pick up from other cultures. Darin also sheds light on what's going on in the supplement industry, the importance of sustainability, why he became plant-based, and the superfoods everyone should have in their diets. We also talk about how Darin found Barukasand why we love them so much!

This week I'm chatting with Kiran Krishnan, a research microbiologist whose focus is the human microbiome and wellness. Kiran's expertise is in gut commensal spore bacteria, the newest frontier in microbiology. Over the last seventeen years Kiran has conducted dozens of human clinical trials in human nutrition through the Clinical Research Organization he established. In addition to his recently published, ground-breaking leaky gut study showing reversal of gut enteropathy within thirty days, Kiran is currently involved in nine other ongoing human clinical trials testing the effect of gut commensal spore probiotics on such conditions as AIDS/HIV, gut enteropathy, Thyroid/Hashimoto’s, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, and liver failure, as well as a longer, more extensive leaky gut trial.

In this episode, Kiran talks all about the importance of probiotics and what they can do for your overall health. He talks about how the gut is related to a wide variety of chronic health issues, and how the change in our food system has affected our gut health. We discuss the difference between the foods we evolved with and foods in our system now, as well as how our ancestors got probiotics in their diets. Kiran gives his top tips for protecting gut health. Kiran tells the truth about the efficacy of most probiotics on the market and how many don't survive through our stomach acid. He explains exactly what you should be looking for when it comes to probiotics, including how many strains to look for and the benefits of soil-based organisms. He also sheds light on why sometimes dead bacteria can be helpful, what the deal is with LPS (lipopolysaccharides), and more truths about the probiotic industry.

This week is another solo episode where I answer questions from you! In this episode, I talk about my experience with energy healing and why I became a reiki practitioner. I also give my response to a vegan who wanted to know if I would be willing to kill an animal for food, as well as what I have to say about the alleged link between animal products and heart disease. Then I move on to answering listener questions! This week I discuss the effect of vegetables on digestion, reasons for being bloated, the low FODMAP diet, and how I feel about stevia. I also talk about food combining, the role of starchy carbs in your diet, and steps to heal your acne.

This week I'm chatting with Cristina Curp, creator of The Castaway Kitchenblog and author of Made Whole: More Than 145 Anti-Inflammatory Keto-Paleo Recipes to Nourish You from the Inside Out! Cristina is a recipe developer, author, military spouse, and dedicated mother who used nourishing food to overcome an autoimmune disease and leaky gut.

In this episode, Cristina shares more about her battle with hidradenitis suppurativa, a rare autoimmune disease that creates a painful skin condition. She talks about how her skin condition affected her self-confidence and relationships growing up, and what she wishes she knew when she was younger. Cristina talks about finding the autoimmune protocol and the paleo diet to help heal herself, and how eventually she transitioned fully to the ketogenic diet as a path to healing. Cristina discusses how her relationship with fitness has changed over the years and the benefits of lifting heavy weights. We also discuss protein on keto, total versus net carbs, and adjusting macronutrients based on your body. Cristina shares her favorite quick and easy meals, her response to excuses for eating healthy, and some of her favorite meals from her new book. We also discuss the importance of self-care for healing, as well as her thoughts about people on social media.

This week I'm talking all about my two-week experiment on the Carnivore Diet! The carnivore diet is an animal-product-only diet that has become popular recently in the health space as a way of helping digestive issues, autoimmune disease, mental health issues, energy, mental clarity, appetite regularity, weight loss, and more. This has been popularized recently by Dr. Shawn Baker, and you can check out testimonials at meatheals.com.

In this episode, I explain more about what the carnivore diet is, the benefits, and if it makes sense in terms of evolution. I share what I ate during the experiment, how I felt, and the effects on my digestion, energy, and mood. I also talk about my thoughts on its effectiveness for health conditions, what I think about its longterm use, how it differs from keto, and much more.

This week I'm chatting with Dr. Michael Ruscio, functional medicine doctor, gut health expert, and the author of Healthy Gut, Healthy You. In this episode, Dr. Ruscio shares his personal story of how he became interested in gut health and functional medicine. He talks about why it's so important to start with the gut when addressing health concerns, the dangers of strict dietary protocols, and how to mitigate the effects of antibiotics. He also explains all about probiotics - the different types, what to look for, and his favorite brands. We discuss SIBO and its causes, the low FODMAP diet and keto, and what "low carb" means. We also discuss hydrogen sulfide SIBO and sulfur intolerance, histamine intolerance, and how to know if you have SIFO. Dr. Ruscio explains the connection between exercise and gut health, as well as how fertility is linked to gut health.

This week I'm chatting with Matt and Megha from KetoConnect! In this episode, Matt and Megha share how they met and how they got started with the ketogenic diet. They talk about their favorite ketogenic foods, what they think about the carnivore diet, their recent cut with Keto Savage, and working out on keto in general. They also share their experience with fasting, sweeteners, and carb cycling. We discuss Matt's recent 4000 calorie experiment and if calories really matter. We also talk about protein intake on the ketogenic diet, if meat quality matters, and if "high fat" or "low carb" is more important for ketosis.

This week I'm chatting with Caroline McGuire from Caroline's Kitchen! Caroline is an 18-year-old high school student in L.A, headed off to college on the East Coast very soon! She regularly creates a ton of delicious, healthy recipes and shares them on her website to help make healthy eating, and living, approachable for everyone. In this episode, we chat about the social media platforms that high school students use most regularly and how it affects their lives. Caroline shares how she finds the balance between being in high school, working on her blog, spending time with family and friends, and keeping up with all of her other extracurricular activities. She also talks about what it's like applying to college and how she's feeling now that applications are over. We discuss what high school girls consider to be "healthy," why people feel the need to label the way they eat, and what true health actually is. We talk about the difficulty of sorting through all of the confusing health information out there and what Caroline's approach to healthy eating is. We also talk about the differences between Instagram and real life, the normalization of disordered eating in our society, and the trends girls in high school are following. We talk about the difference between testing the boundaries as a teen and being too extreme, the responsibility of influencers to be honest with their audience, and what older generations of women can do to help younger generations.

For more from Caroline, you can find her on Instagram (@carolines_kitchen) and on her website, carolines--kitchen.com.You'll find all of her delicious, healthy recipes there!

This week I'm chatting with Ellenie Georgiou from The Low Carb High Fat Lifestyle (@the_lchf_lifestyle)! In this episode, Elle shares her inspiring journey of trying to find answers for her declining health over the years. Elle talks about the start of her health journey, why she initially chose to get breast implants years ago, and how she started to have mysterious symptoms. She shares her experience in the medical system with doctors disregarding her frustrations, how she learned to fight for her own health and stand up to doctors, and how she had to do much of her own research to eventually be able to heal herself. Elle also shares how she discovered she had Hashimoto's, an autoimmune disease, and her eventual discovery that Breast Implant Illness was at the root of her chronic health issues. Elle talks about how a ketogenic diet and burning fat for fuel reduced her inflammation so that she could start healing, and what the process has been like since getting her breast implants removed. She shares exactly how she has been able to put her Hashimoto's into remission, and the importance of addressing all lifestyle factors when it comes to health. We also discuss the importance of nutrient density, adjusting your diet for your body, and more.

For more from Ellenie, you can find her on Instagram (@the_lchf_lifestyle) and on her YouTube channel, The Low Carb High Fat Lifestyle. If you're interested in more support via the Facebook group Ellenie mentioned in the episode, you can join Breast Implant Illness and Healing by Nicole.
