March 02 Think You’re Dairy Intolerant? Try This First | BOK

348: Does dairy love you back… or is it low key sabotaging your skin, gut, and sinuses?
Today I’m sharing my very personal, very real journey with dairy, from going fully dairy free during my worst gut struggles to slowly rebuilding tolerance with cultured options like Greek yogurt. I’m breaking down why some forms, like stretchy melty cheeses, still wreck me, while others work beautifully, and why fat content has suddenly changed the game for my body.
We’re talking mucus, breakouts, lactose vs intolerance, A2, raw milk, portion size, and why this doesn’t have to be an all or nothing conversation. Your body changes, your digestion evolves, and what worked three years ago might not work today.
If you’ve ever said “dairy just doesn’t sit right with me,” this episode might help you figure out why.
Topics Discussed:
→ How dairy has affected me over the years
→ How to introduce diary into your diet
→ Why some cheese can cause issues others don’t
→ It’s not all about ingredients but the process
→ Is raw dairy REALLY ok and why I stopped drinking it
→ Sheeps milk, goats milk, and A2 dairy
→ Why it’s not an all or nothing approach when it comes to consuming dairy

February 25 Is Diet Culture Wrecking Your Gut Health? | Dr. Will Cole

347: Ever feel like your stomach is reacting before your brain even catches up?
In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Will Cole to talk about what is really going on with the gut brain connection and why your stress, shame, and even childhood trauma might be showing up as bloating, anxiety, brain fog, or inflammation.
We get into his newest book, Gut Feelings, and unpack everything from the vagus nerve to “shame inflammation,” plus how chronic stress can spike inflammatory markers like interleukin 6.
If you have ever wondered why you can eat the same meal on vacation and feel fine, then eat it at home and feel wrecked, this one is for you.
We are connecting the dots between your gut, your nervous system, your past, and your plate. And trust me, it is all connected.
Topics Discussed:
→ How does stress affect gut health?
→ Can shame increase inflammation levels?
→ What is the gut brain connection?
→ Does alcohol damage the gut microbiome?
→ How does childhood trauma impact autoimmune disease?
