I had the pleasure of being Interviewed with Matt at @SeedsofAbundanceshow and we talked all about health, healing, and the deeper things going on in the body. It's amazing to explore how tightly connected all things in the body are. The more we understand and educate, the more things make sense and the more we can start to put the pieces together. With all of the deeper testing I do in my comprehensive hormone/metabolic panels, the GI Map testing, and the HTMA hair analysis testing, I find so many correlations in how things are tied together. My hope is that people continue to educate themselves more on these important topics and learn how to OPTIMIZE their systems. Even if you are in a good place, there is more to understand to further take your health to the next level. None of us are perfect but the more we can do to keep our systems functioning optimally, the better we will be long term.

For those that aren't familiar, an HTMA test is an actual hair sample taken from the scalp. It is the most accurate way to assess mineral status and heavy metals that are ACTUALLY getting absorbed into the tissues and what is being utilized by the body. Blood analysis for minerals and heavy metals may not actually be absorbing. Mineral imbalances and heavy metal toxicities affect our cells. Cells cannot carry out their function and then carry over into hormone imbalances. Hormones can also drive our body to utilize and absorb minerals differently. This is the co existing relationship they have with each other. It's important to look at the hormones AND the nutrients in our body in order to bring it into full balance for this very reason. Many symptoms and hormone imbalances start as deficiencies and toxicities in the body. Over time, it will either suppress or activate glands in our body that are in charge of our hormone production. This is how we can tell a lot about someone's metabolic health, along with some of the symptoms they are having. Many of these imbalances, toxicities, and dysfunction will carry over into major imbalances and gut dysbiosis as well. Our system requires optimization and when we aren't optimized, our systems start to compensate. Compensating for too long causes disease and these imbalances. Listen in to one of my consulting clients HTMA results as I compare some of her imbalances along with symptoms and dysfunction we are seeing.

This video goes into understanding the complexities of dieting from a different perspective. In a world where everyone claims to be an expert on health and wellness, I go into understanding what kinds of diets are out there and how people come too try and make claims about the "best diet" out there. The state of your health very much so determines how your system will respond best. We are SUPPOSED to be able to handle things in a certain way, but we start to need different forms of dieting and nutrition when the system is unable to process properly. Just because we need to eat a certain way now, doesn't mean it's the best way. Health issues can change what our system needs. #diet #nutrition #inflammation #insulinresistance

Unlocking optimal health requires more than just treating symptoms—it’s about getting to the root causes. In this video, I break down how hormones, gut health, and mineral balance are all connected and why comprehensive lab testing is crucial for personalized health solutions. Whether you're struggling with hormone imbalances, digestive issues, or chronic health concerns, understanding how these systems work together can be the key to restoring balance and improving overall health. Discover: -Why focusing on hormones alone isn't enough -How gut health impacts your hormones and overall body function -The role of minerals in maintaining a healthy internal environment -The importance of individualized care and how functional lab testing can pinpoint the root cause of your health issues. -By the end of this video, you'll have a deeper understanding of how to approach your health holistically and how to use lab results to craft a personalized wellness plan.

The Hair-tissue-mineral-analysis (HTMA) is an extremely accurate tool in assessing our bodies mineral status as well as levels of heavy metal toxicity. Minerals and metals affect our endocrine system, cellular metabolism, structural support, nerve conduction, muscular activity, immune functions, antioxidants, enzyme functions, water/acid/alkaline balance, and even our DNA. We see a lot of correlation in mineral balance/metal toxicity with disease because of the affect it has on the cell and because of how important mineral balance is in the functioning of our body. Minerals and metals have a direct effect on either stimulating or inhibiting the energy producing glands which include the pancreas, parathyroid, adrenal cortex, posterior pituitary, thyroid, adrenal medulla, and anterior pituitary. These glands control our endocrine system responsible for making hormones, keeping our stress in a balanced state, and even determining how our body regulates our glucose levels. Each mineral and toxicity has certain glands it will affect and target. Please listen along to see how I apply this test into other healing modalities to make an overall better interpretation of each person and why it becomes so useful!

The GI-MAP How It Works and How We Apply It was made to help people understand the complexities of the gut and why I choose to use it within my coaching. Our hormones, gut, mineral status, and everything between, I explain in this video why the GI-MAP DNA Stool Analysis brings healing to the next level and why I believe it to be worth it in the long run to be doing with all healing clients.

Menopause is not so simple and that IS the reality. Our bodies undergo so many changes at that time. The simple statement many have is "you can't get away with as much" or "its just hormones suck it up". When you really understand the science and all of the chemical changes that happen with menopause (and really any major fluctuation for that matter), you can learn to understand why for some, it can become a very complicated time. Hormone changes, cellular changes, inflammation, changes in our mineral status, our nutrient status, our gut microbiome, and much much more can all fluctuate. All of these things are interconnected and have inverse and direct relationships. As with any other content I post on any of my platforms, my goal is not to give people excuses, it's really to educate and help people understand the depths of our bodies. Of course there will be those who will always have excuses, but we have to look at the physiological and how that also affects the mental.
