On this episode we spend some time with a special first-time guest, who has been coined, The Mineral Geek.

Caroline Alan is a health survivor, mineral expert, and educator on a mission to redefine how we think about cellular health. After a high-pressure career in tech left her physically and mentally depleted, her healing journey led to the discovery of plant-based minerals and their powerful role in restoring the body’s natural balance. Her experience sparked deep research into human physiology and the science of humic and fulvic substances.

Today, as Co-Founder and CEO of BEAM Minerals, Caroline, affectionately known as “The Mineral Geek,” shares this life-changing knowledge with clarity, science, and heart, empowering others to take charge of their wellness at the cellular level.

Talking Points:

More than 30 trillion cells in the body: Minerals are required in the life cycle of a cell and to function properly.

Without minerals the cells struggle to complete basic functions.

We tend to think of illness as something wrong with an organ or a system of the body, rather than a symptom of depletion at the cellular level.

Many chronic health issues are rooted in mineral depletion.

Millions of Americans are frustrated with their urinary problems. More specifically, the need to urinate multiple times a day and night and leaking urine is frustrating to many people over the age of 45. Fortunately, there have been successful advances in the herbal treatment of common urinary problems. We are excited to share these breakthroughs on the show today. 

Tracey Seipel, ND, is CEO and founder of Australian-based Seipel Group. Dr. Seipel is a renowned naturopathic doctor, medical herbalist, and clinical nutritionist. Dr. Seipel is also a diabetes educator, researcher, and an award-winning natural products formulator with 35 years of experience in clinical practice.

During the 1990s, Seipel was a leader in establishing standards of education for Australian naturopathic colleges and as an advisor to government boards, including developing nutritional training for Australia Medical Schools. During her research as a product formulator for nutraceutical companies, she uncovered the significant prevalence and underreporting of urinary incontinence in women and then overactive bladder and incontinence in both men and women. Together, this led to her pioneering this natural health category. Understanding the significant health impacts and seeing no other companies willing to take on the challenge of improving bladder control, Seipel developed the initial formulation.

Joining us today is Jane Jansen, a Natural & Holistic Practitioner at The Tree of Life Wellness Center in Massachusetts. Jane has the unique perspective as a medical professional who, prior to becoming a natural & holistic practitioner, spent years in Radiology and Ultrasound doing research and performing tests on patients with varying types of health problems. Jane joins us today to discuss why probiotics are important at all stages of our lives.

Our ancestors tended not to have modern-day 21st Century digestive issues because they ingested naturally fermented foods that, as we know today, produced probiotics & postbiotics. The challenge in today’s “fast-food & processed food” world is that we do not eat a lot of naturally fermented foods like our ancestors.

Our ancestors, from early times to the early 1900’s, ingested more fruits and vegetables, as well as other natural foods that had fermented overtime preserving their food supply. For instance, milk could become yogurt or buttermilk; vegetables could become sauerkraut, pickles, or kimchee. Soybeans could become miso, tofu, or tempeh. By-the-way, we can still use these foods to incorporate probiotics from food naturally into our diets.

But our modern food industry is largely based on a fast-food culture and processed foods which are lacking in healthful fermentation of fruits and vegetables which naturally produce probiotics and more importantly, postbiotics. Postbiotic metabolites is the term that refers to the wide range of health-regulating compounds that the good bacteria produce and secrete in the intestinal tract (primarily in the colon) when they digest and ferment the fiber content in the foods we eat.

 Everyone is born with a miniature microbiome (eco system) inside the intestines. This ecosystem is populated by trillions of microscopic organisms which include over a thousand species of bacteria, as well as viruses, fungi, and parasites. Most are good, some are bad.

As you grow, your gut microbiome begins to diversify into many different types of microbial species. This eco system affects the whole body by controlling the digestion of food, immune system regulation, central nervous system, brain health and other bodily functions as well as keeping guard against harmful invaders.

Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotics are available at Natural Grocers, Sprouts, and other natural health retailers across the U.S. Also available online. Visit www.essential formulas.com to find a retailer near you.

In this Episode we shared why Sea vegetables are the most nutritionally dense plants on the planet and the most abundant source of vitamins and minerals in the plant kingdom.  We highlight Anti-aging, Energy, and daily nutrition.

To help us do the heavy lifting we have invited Greg Good, the CEO and Founder of FarmaSea and Sea Veg Whole Food Seaweed supplement.

Sea vegetables are packed with protein, iodine, fiber and vitamins A, B, C and E in amounts that are 10 to 20 times higher than land vegetables, while some sea vegetables contain more calcium than milk. Sea lettuce has 25 times the iron found in beef. Which is great for people who can’t have beef or prefer not to.

An 8-week study of 60 Japanese people revealed that fucoxanthin, a substance in brown seaweed, may help improve blood sugar control.

Another substance in seaweed called alginate prevented blood sugar spikes in animals after they were fed a high-sugar meal. It’s thought that alginate may reduce the absorption of sugar into the bloodstream.

Benefits of Sea Plants

A breakthrough in inflammatory support has arrived in the natural health market. PEA, which stands for palmitoylethanolamide, is a naturally occurring fatty acid derivative made in the body and found in small amounts in foods. Several human studies have demonstrated that PEA has broad- spectrum pain-relieving properties, anti-inflammatory effects, and nerve protection.


To help us unpack all the research and studies we have Dr. Stengler joining us today.

In addition to authoring 30 books on health and several best-sellers such as “The Natural Physician’s Healing Therapies,” “Prescription for Natural Cures,” “Prescription for Drug Alternatives,” and “Outside the Box Cancer Therapies,” Dr. Stengler has been published in several peer-reviewed medical journals such as The International Journal of Family & Community Medicine, Endocrinology & Metabolism International Journal, and Journal of Nutritional Health & Food Engineering.

Dr. Stengler’s, NMD. The newest book is called, The Holistic Guide to Gut Health. A comprehensive yet accessible approach to healing leaky gut and the many uncomfortable symptoms it causes. Dr Stengler is also the founder of The Stengler Center for Integrative Medicine.

Talking Points:

Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA), is a naturally occurring fatty acid derivative made in the body and found in small amounts in foods.

PEA was first discovered in 1957 by scientists at Merck Sharp & Dohme, who isolated it from egg yolk, peanut meal, and soy lecithin. They found that PEA had anti-inflammatory properties in guinea pigs.

However, PEA's role as a potential therapeutic agent was not widely recognized until 1993, when Rita Levi-Montalcini and her colleagues published research that suggested PEA has anti-inflammatory properties. Levi-Montalcini's group termed PEA an autocoid local injury antagonist (ALIA), and suggested that it acts locally to counteract injury.

Multiple studies have demonstrated that PEA improves all sorts of pain. For example, a 2023 analysis of 11 studies found that PEA improved pain of various conditions, including muscle and joints, nerves, gynecological, and digestive. In terms of joint pain, a high-quality study demonstrated that PEA significantly reduced adult joint pain compared to placebo. Moreover, 8 clinical trials demonstrated that PEA was effective for low back pain, sciatica, and carpal tunnel syndrome. Even migraine headache pain was shown in published research to be improved with PEA.

Lipid mediators help to balance the immune, nervous, and endocrine systems, affecting pain pathways related to inflammation. But unfortunately, due to changing diets, many of us do not get the nutrition and activity we need to make enough PEA ourselves.

Supplemental PEA, by Levagen+ is properly formulated for optimal bioavailability, 75% more bioavailable to cell receptors than dietary forms. Levagen+ liposomal delivery of PEA has been clinically studied and shows benefits in joint pain, nerve pain, migraine, infections, sleep, and cognitive function.

In this episode, good friend Amber Lynn Vitale joins us to unpack the many layers of one of the hottest new supplements in the past year, Berberine. She shared what's real, based on science and as a consumer how to spot a poorly made version of Berberine.

What is Berberine?

Berberine is found in Goldenseal, Oregon Grape, and Turmeric Tree also known as Barberry. In all these plants Berberine comes from the roots, and is used in Chinese, Ayurvedic, and Western herbalism. Bitter and Astringent, it is traditionally known to reduce fat and improve sugar metabolism by improving glucose and lipid receptor expression.

Numerous studies on Berberine show it supports healthy:

Blood Sugar levels
Lipid profile
Blood Pressure
Inflammatory response
Weight and Body Composition
Cognitive function
Reproductive function…especially researched in PCOS

Berbevis clinical studies show benefits in body composition with fat redistribution away from the organs, glucose and insulin metabolism, and bioavailability with respect to both absorption and half-life potency.
