294: If you struggle with candida, are low in iron or have been diagnosed with anemia, or perhaps you're pregnant and have been told to take iron supplements, I urge you to listen to this episode before taking additional steps. Morley Robbins is back after 2 years of initially being on my podcast back in 2023 and we dive into the confusing topic of why so many are anemic despite getting iron infusions, taking iron supplements, and even eating red meat and liver without any improvements. This episode may be the answer you're looking for when it comes to iron deficiency. In fact, you probably have an overload of iron but are missing other elements in your diet that facilitate iron absorption and iron in the blood vs. iron in the tissue. Just like certain vitamins are fat soluble which means you need fat to be able to absorb those vitamins, iron needs other co-factors to be able to be utilized properly. 

Oh, and I know I mentioned candida! And if you have candida, most likely you are anemic and if you're anemic, you probably have candida! This is not a doom and gloom episode, but quite an inspiring one because this gives hope and insight to those looking for answers. 

Topics Discussed:

→ Why iron isn’t the cause of anemia

→ The difference between iron in the blood vs iron in the body tissue

→ Iron recycling 

→ The role our spleen has on the body and iron

→ How to support the spleen naturally

→ What causes our spleen to not function properly 

→ Mind body connection

→ Heme iron vs non-heme (synthetic) iron

→ Why fortified products are not good for you

→ Why iron infusions could do more harm than good

→ The role copper plays in iron absorption

→ Why donating blood is beneficial for our bodies

→ Why getting iron tests while pregnant is inaccurate

→ Why we need retinol and beta-carotene

→ The candida and iron connection

292: Having mold automatically means you have parasites too? This was something new I learned in today’s episode with Jessica Rauscher, a holistic practitioner who healed from mold toxicity herself and now helps others do the same. Her experience with both parasites and mold has led her to support countless clients through a natural approach and education on what to look for if you suspect mold exposure, how to address it physically, and the mental and emotional aspects that often get overlooked.

Sometimes, having any diagnosis is harder on our mental state than our physical one, so we talk about both…plus the symptoms of mold, how to get tested (both yourself and your environment), whether a vegan or carnivore diet is best when dealing with mold and parasites, and how to address your employer if you think your workplace might be the source.

Jessica also offers free first consultations from anywhere in the U.S., so stay tuned until the end of the episode where she shares her personal email so you can contact her directly.

Topics Discussed:

→ Symptoms of mold

→ How to spot mold

→ How to test for mold in your body and home

→ How to confront your employer if you suspect mold at work

→ The emotional toll of mold exposure

→ Why mold and parasites are connected

→ Supplements that support detox

→ Food and diet protocols for detoxing

→ The best binders for mold and parasites

→ What biofilms are and why they matter

→ The top food to break up biofilms

→ Where to find help if you think you have mold and parasites

286: We are talking about abortion, but not only about whether it's right or wrong, but about both the mental and physical health effects abortion has on the mother. These effects aren't just temporary, but lifelong, and may not even appear until decades after the woman has the abortion. I have Seth Gruber on the show, who is THE top pro-life activist in my opinion, and founder of The White Rose Resistance, author of the book and movie The 1964 Project, as well as a husband and father. Whether you are pro-life or pro-choice, this episode exposes hidden facts about how abortion affects a woman's health FOREVER. We are talking about breast cancer, sepsis, mental issues, and so much more that most, if not all, women are not aware of nor informed about prior to getting an abortion.

Topics Discussed:

→ Protecting women's health!

→ Breast cancer linked to abortion

→ Mental health

→ Is the abortion pill more dangerous than giving birth?

→ Financial ties in planned parenthood 

→ Increased risk for miscarriages later in life

→ Is having an abortion to save a mother required?
