The number of women who are postmenopausal is increasing every year. By 2030, it's estimated that over a billion women around the world will be postmenopausal. That's exactly why in this video I'm going to be talking about menopause—both perimenopause and postmenopause. I believe this topic deserves way more attention, and I want to be part of educating women and being an advocate during the menopause transition, helping them make informed decisions for their health now and into the future. I'm Dr. Doni, host of How Humans Heal and Women's Health expert. I've been helping women with their health, including menopausal symptoms, for over 25 years. I recently completed two additional trainings in helping women through menopause, including a menopause boot camp taught by my mentor and instructor in Women's Health, Dr. Tori Hudson. I want to share information that should be within your reach to help you become better advocates for yourself and make informed decisions going forward. There's so much I want to teach you about menopause—more than I can cover in this one video. Today, I want to talk about the common symptoms and health issues for women to start thinking about and noticing in your bodies so you can understand the experience of menopause for yourself.

Today I'm excited to introduce you to James Barry. James is the CEO and founder of an organ-based superfood seasoning called PLUCK. He's also a private chef with over 20 years of experience cooking for celebrities like Tom Cruise, George Clooney, and Barbra Streisand. Additionally, James is the co-author of several cookbooks, helping authors create their recipes. As a clinical nutritionist and naturopathic doctor, I'm constantly talking to people about their diet and food choices. Patients continuously ask me what I eat, what they should eat, and what they should avoid. It's an ongoing conversation about food, which is crucial because our food can be either our medicine or work against our health if we're not paying attention. We need to understand that what we consume directly affects our overall well-being, from our immune system to our energy levels and beyond. James works as what I would call a "holistic chef" - someone who knows how to cook and eat in a healthy way. He describes himself as "the how guy." When clients meet with doctors, nutritionists, or dietitians who tell them what foods to avoid, they often wonder, "How do I do that?" That's when healthcare professionals call Chef James because he understands food swaps and knows how to make those changes delicious. He ensures people don't feel deprived, which is key when dispensing information about food. We must remember people are human with emotions tied to food. We can't just say, "Don't eat this and eat that." We need to consider the emotional state, support people where they are, and then swap in foods that will help them reach their desired outcomes.

In this episode I'm going to talk about five types of mind-body medicine that I recommend you include in your healing plan to help your body protect you from high-risk HPV virus and prevent cancer caused by high-risk HPV strains. I'm Dr. Doni Wilson, a naturopathic doctor, clinical nutritionist, and midwife. I've been practicing for over 25 years, specializing in women's health and helping women address abnormal pap smears, including high-risk HPV. I help them heal their cervix, get HPV to negative, and keep it negative—which is unheard of in standard care. In standard care, well-trained surgeons can remove abnormal cells, but that doesn't remove the virus, which is why many people are told HPV won't go away. Yet research clearly shows the human immune system can clear HPV, even though it's a DNA virus with 14 high-risk types associated with cancer. The immune system can clear HPV, and I focus on this information. Why isn't your immune system clearing HPV? Why is it still there? Why is it causing abnormal cells when 90% of people clear the virus without developing abnormal cells? We need to determine what in your system is depleted, imbalanced, or disrupted. One natural approach to clearing HPV is the mind-body connection. I didn't always know this was essential. However, through case after case of working with women and researching what works best, I've found several effective approaches: - Diet changes to eliminate inflammatory foods - Nutrients to address deficiencies and support immunity - Probiotics for gut and vaginal microbiomes - Homeopathy to remind your immune system to protect against HPV We’re here to help!

In this episode I'm excited to introduce you to Dr. Toni Engram. She is what's referred to as a biological dentist. She's also an integrative health coach and the owner of Flourished Dental Boutique in Richardson, Texas. For a lot of people, we think a dentist is only a dentist, but that's not really the case anymore. To understand what it means to be a biological dentist, think of it as the functional medicine or naturopathic version of dentistry. While biological dentists still do fillings, crowns, and other standard procedures, how they do these things is very intentional. Biological medicine has an appreciation for the biological terrain. It's not just about one germ causing one illness - it's about what our toxic bucket looks like. Have we filled it too much and is it overflowing, or are we supporting it? In biological dentistry, practitioners look carefully at what materials they're using and whether those are helping or hurting. They look for infections in a patient's mouth that might be hiding and could impact overall health. When toxins or infections are involved, biological dentists use techniques that aim to be safer and more natural whenever possible. They don't use fluoride anywhere in the office. When taking out old silver fillings that are half mercury, they follow specific protocols to protect patients and staff. Even the filling materials used are carefully sourced as responsibly as possible. People can search online for a biological dentist in their area. Many patients switch to a biological dentist when their regular dentist retires, or when they realize that traditional dentistry doesn't align with their values. It's about finding a practitioner whose approach matches what you believe in. Some patients don't want fluoride, don't want unnecessary junk in their mouth, and want to ensure dental work is done safely without unnecessary X-rays. What's interesting is that Dr. Toni also has health coach certification, which isn't common even among biological dentists. This gives her a broader perspective on health - she's not just looking at the patient's mouth but considering how their diet and overall health relate to what's happening with their teeth. Health coaching skills help her with one-on-one patient conversations and in communicating with the public through platforms like Instagram and YouTube. It gives her more fine-tuned skills around how to actually help patients to do the things that support them in getting healthier overall. We’re here to help!

In this episode I’m going to be covering 5 foods to include in your diet to help clear high risk HPV and prevent HPV-related cancers such as cervical and vaginal cancer. I know how confusing it can be to figure out what to eat and what not to eat. Once you realize that the food you feed your body each day can be your medicine and actually help prevent health issues, you start to understand the importance of choosing foods that will do the most good for you. I'm Dr. Doni Wilson, a naturopathic doctor, clinical nutritionist, and midwife. I've been practicing for over 25 years and specialize in women's health, particularly helping women with abnormal pap smears as well as humans with various different stress-related health issues. I want to emphasize that the food choices I’ll be mentioning here will help your overall health. It's not that they only help with abnormal pap results or high risk HPV. When we choose these foods, they help our whole health. Most often, when women test positive for high risk HPV, they are also dealing with other health issues in their body—whether that's digestive issues, skin issues, weight issues, anxiety, depression, mental health issues, sleep issues, autoimmunity, hormone imbalances, or other health concerns. The foods I'll cover in this video will help with any and all of these health issues. Our priority is to choose foods to help support your immune system protect you from high risk HPV so you can clear it to negative and prevent it from coming back again. We’re here to help!

In this episode I’m excited to introduce you to Dr. Brad Jacobs, who is board certified in internal medicine and integrative medicine. He is the owner of BlueWave Medicine Clinic in Sausalito, California, and also co-author of the Anti-Inflammation Cookbook. He specializes in psychedelic medicine and a form of therapy called Hakomi. Dr. Brad is now leading in-person retreats in Costa Rica on precision medicine and longevity. We'll be talking about health transformation, longevity, and recovery from trauma by making diet changes to reduce inflammation and using psychedelic medicines. Dr. Brad has been involved with integrative medicine since he was 10 years old. He grew up doing martial arts, and that Chinese upbringing infused him with a different view of how to think about health and healing—not just the treatment of disease but the prevention of disease, thriving and flourishing. I’m so glad Dr. Brad was able to join me on How Humans Heal today to discuss these important topics to help all of you know what is possible for transforming your health and recovering from trauma.

Maybe these are some of the questions you have: Is it OK to get pregnant when I'm testing positive for HPV? Is it OK to get pregnant if I have abnormal cells on my Pap smear result? What if I'm already pregnant and then I find out that I have HPV and abnormal cells? What can I do or take during pregnancy and even during breastfeeding to protect myself from high-risk HPV and HPV-related cancer that is safe for my baby? Another common question is: Is it possible to pass the high-risk HPV to my baby either during pregnancy or after? I know how worried you must feel.

Today I'm looking forward to introducing you to Dr. Susan Fox. She's a doctor of acupuncture and Chinese medicine, and she's the creator of the "Your Fertile Health Program" as well as the "Best Prep for Pregnancy - Naturally or through IVF or Egg Freezing" Online Summit. So many people out there are struggling with fertility and going through the IVF process with all the stresses that come with it. They're needing help and guidance, but might not know where to turn or what their options are. I think it's wonderful that Dr. Susan is offering fertility support from a Chinese medicine perspective. In my practice I also help many couples to conceive naturally and/or through IVF, and to prevent a miscarriage, with a naturopathic approach. It is so rewarding to help people to create the family of their dreams. As with most health concerns, including preparation for pregnancy and prevention of pregnancy loss, it is when we use strategies from all systems of medicine that we can achieve improved results. It’s not about choosing one approach or another. Natural approaches can be combined with allopathic approaches to improve fertility outcomes. Learn more about the role of Chinese medicine and acupuncture in this episode, and about the Best Prep for Pregnancy Summit, with Dr. Susan Fox.

In this episode, I'm going to be talking about the concept of the "magic pill" and I'm going to be especially using it to talk about risk for HPV-related cancer, specifically cervical cancer in women. But I encourage you to listen in regardless of what health issue you're dealing with to better understand the mindset, perspective, and paradigm shift that I see my patients making in order to truly transform their health. The magic pill concept is about a fictional or hypothetical medication that can miraculously heal or cure any kind of health issue from a single pill without any side effects or limitations. I think we can all relate to this – we would all love it if there was some magic pill we could swallow that takes away all of our pain, whether physical or emotional, cancer risk, or whatever troubles we're experiencing in our life. Wouldn't that be amazing if we could just take a pill and it all goes away? When we get a headache, we immediately think, "Where's that pill I could take to make the headache go away?" Sometimes it works – we take a pill and the headache disappears. The problem is if we get a headache every day and take that pill every day, eventually that pill can start to have side effects and negative impacts on our bodies. At that point, even if that pill is taking our headache away, it might be causing a stomachache, for example. This is the limitation of taking a medication or substance we often turn to for a quick fix. As humans, we have to learn to stop ourselves from chasing that next shiny object, hoping that one thing is going to fix everything and we're never going to have to think about it again. We need to realize that the reality is that most often, things are not really fixed with a magic pill. They're more often resolved with true intention and transformation.
