449: Rebekah Farmer On Tailored Keto Health

This week we have a masterclass on digestion in our Foundations Series. The digestive system plays a major role in your overall health as it brings nutrients to your body. Without good digestive health, you will experience a host of uncomfortable symptoms such as abdominal pain, bloating, indigestion, and more. Additionally, you may also get a lack of proper nutrition from the food you eat, which can negatively impact your health and wellbeing. This is why digestive health is so important. So, how do you keep your digestive system healthy? Listen to find out!

Show your lymph some love! Dayna Marsh joins the show today to talk about the benefits of lymphatic massage. Dayna is a Licensed Massage Therapist, Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, and owner of Body Therapy Salt Lake, in Salt Lake City, UT. She offers in person massage therapy sessions and in person or virtual nutritional therapy services. Lymph, is like blood in that they both are liquids circulating in the body. Unlike red blood’s circular, pumped by the heart movement, lymph moves just one way: out. However, lymph has no organ pump so it’s up to individuals to help move it along. Lymph is the body’s liquid trash can. It picks up waste products formed from all the chemical reactions needed to keep people alive, ushering them out of the body.  Besides the congested head, puffy eyes, and swollen ankles that signal lymphatic dysfunction, there are more signs and symptoms of lymph blockages that may not be as obvious as fluid buildup. However, they can be severe lymph-related issues just the same. These signs include:  Bloated stomach or extremities Brain fog Cellulite Chronic headaches  Chronic sinus infections  Constipation Eczema  Excessive sweating Mucus and phlegm production Painful and hard swellings (especially in armpits, groin area, and neck) Sluggishness Stiff or painful joints Key takeaway from this episode: If you have one or more of these signs of lymphatic blockage, you can’t eliminate toxins, and you’d benefit from supporting your lymphatic system with massage and a variety of other techniques.

“We are suffering unnecessarily because our physical bodies are out of balance.” Dr. Vora Our guest this week is Dr. Ellen Vora, a board-certified psychiatrist, acupuncturist, and yoga teacher, and she is the author of The Anatomy of Anxiety. She takes a functional medicine approach to mental health—considering the whole person and addressing imbalance at the root. Dr. Vora received her B.A. from Yale University and her M.D. from Columbia University. It’s normal to occasionally experience anxiety, such as when we’re faced with a high-stakes meeting, a stressed-out boss, or a conflict with a colleague. But according to the National Institute of Mental Health, in any given year, 19% of U.S. adults are suffering from an anxiety disorder, and 31% will deal with a disorder at least once in their lifetime.   Dr. Vora explains false anxiety – avoidable anxiety, causes real suffering but can have a straight forward, physical basis. When anxious, we tend to get trapped in false or limited ways of thinking – not that the feelings we are experiencing aren’t real or valid. However, these thought patterns create a debilitating negative spiral that can take over our lives by convincing us of impending doom and further exacerbating our sense of helplessness. Dr. Vora shares her tips to learn how to translate anxious feelings into purposeful action.

It may be small, but your thyroid is a mighty organ that is responsible for many important functions that can make a huge difference in your health. Metabolism, hormones, digestion, brain, and so much more are all affected by how well (or not) the thyroid is functioning. When the thyroid is not working well, you may feel pretty miserable. Thyroid disorders are common, affecting over 20 million Americans every year, and even more common in women (1 in 8 women will have a thyroid disorder at some point in life).  Our guest today is Dr. Eric Balcavage – Dr. Balcavage is a Doctor of Chiropractic, Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner, Certified Nutrition Specialist, Board Certified in Integrative Medicine, Certified Gluten Coach and the Clinic Director at Rejuvagen Center in Pennsylvania.

“There is SO much information about food and exercise circling about, and it’s often conflicting or confusing. Perhaps you’ve tried a diet and failed, started an exercise routine and stopped, lost weight and then gained it back. I can relate because I’ve done all of those things.” Who can relate? I sure can. Our guest today is Lindsay Young a certified transformational nutrition coach and strength and conditioning coach, a business owner, a wife, and a busy mom of 3 and she has mastered the balancing act of taking care of herself and her health as well as all of her other responsibilities. By including herself in her list of priorities, she is able to easily say no to the things that don’t fit the vision she has for herself, her family, and her life. In this episode, she breaks it down for us and how we can do the same. As you know, as we age our bodies change – and what has always worked for us, might not always work – and the frustration comes from the trying to figure out the next thing that will work for us. Did you know that managing blood sugar could be the silver bullet to so many health challenges, as well as a huge obstacle for managing consistency? Lindsay explains how our blood sugar controls hormones and hunger cues and could be sabotaging your progress. If you have been in a health rut or are burnt out on striving but falling short from thriving, this episode might be just the spark of inspiration you need to look at it with a different perspective.

Home is a place that should be safe and comfortable, not the place we want to associate as a source of health issues and potential problems. However, the truth is out – your home environments could be negatively affecting you and your family’s health. Luckily, there are solutions! There are ways to minimize exposure or avoid the risk altogether. In this episode I am presenting directly from my FREE Healthy Home Guide that I created just for you. I’ve taken all of the questions I’ve heard over the years – What is Toxic Load? How can I tell if I’m (or my children/family) are being negatively affected by environmental toxins? Where/How do I get started with cleaning up our home environment? I have been listening!!! I hear you. I know you know this is important, I know it has been in the back of your mind, on your to-do list, for quite some time. Getting started is the hardest part so I’m going to make this really easy for you. This is not a daunting task when you have your plan. Overwhelm is not even an option when you see how simply I break it down for you. You are going to feel so much better knowing that you are taking pro-active steps to clean up your home environment. It is better to be empowered with knowledge, so you can make healthier and informed decisions, than to be unaware of the risks. With each hazard, there are actions you can take to help fix the issue. You don’t have to do everything at once! A simple place to start is by choosing to commit to addressing one area of your home each month. Another way is to simply replace items with healthier and safer choices as needed – we call this the ditch and switch! I also recommend starting with the items and products you use most. These are the things you use daily or frequently, and the chemical and toxic load adds quickly. By starting here, people often see the most benefit the fastest.
