Hi all,
I just wanted to share that I am pausing the podcast until I finish my board exams in Osteopathic Neuromusculoskeletal Medicine to become a Quadruple-Board Certified Physician and be the best integrative physician and pain doctor I can be for you.
I'm looking forward to training more healthcare professionals in holistic medicine, as I'll be board-certified in pediatrics, integrative medicine, medical acupuncture, and hopefully now, osteopathic manipulative medicine!
Please go to https://healthispowher.com to download our first two free pain modules that is part of my Pain Free Life Academy course to get signed up to my email newsletter monthly.
I will be sending out educational tidbits and things I'm learning as an ONMM resident physician as well as some freebies when I can!
Please send me any topics you are interested in, as it relates to osteopathic manipulative medicine, pain, infant head molding/feeding issues, and autoimmune disease. [email protected]
Lots of love,
Dr. Anna, MD

In this Podcast Episode: Kate Mahoney discussed her journey to becoming a supplement expert, including her rare autoimmune condition, her experience with reformulating recipes, her collaboration with master herbalists, and her enrollment in a functional health practitioner program.
Kate Mahoney, Supplement Academy Founder, realized she was a supplement expert after multiple people she looked up to told her at the same time. She then went on to teach and create courses, and emphasizes the importance of sourcing real food before supplementing. She also warns against taking methylated folate unless it is needed, as it can lead to toxicity issues.
Kate dives into the three categories of supplements: support, cofactors, and repair. She also suggests that people drink enough clean water every day and not drink water with meals as it dilutes the gastric juices needed to digest food. She also suggests that due to depleted soil, people may need to supplement their diets with vitamins and minerals to get the nutrients they need.
