Mind Your Health Podcast with Dr. Connie Cheung

Did you know that the way you combine foods can make or break your digestion? Food combining is a powerful yet simple approach to eating that focuses on pairing foods in ways that optimize your body’s ability to digest and absorb nutrients. It’s not just what you eat—it’s how you eat it that matters.

When certain foods are combined poorly—like proteins and starches or fats with high-glycemic carbs—it can slow digestion, lead to fermentation in the gut, and cause bloating, fatigue, and inflammation. By learning the basics of food combining, you can enhance your gut health, reduce discomfort, and boost your energy levels.

Key Food Combining Principles:

• Eat fruits alone or with leafy greens to avoid fermentation in the gut.
• Pair proteins like chicken or fish with non-starchy vegetables for smooth digestion.
• Avoid combining proteins with starches, such as steak with potatoes, to prevent digestive overload.
• Focus on low-glycemic carbs like quinoa and sweet potatoes, paired with fiber-rich vegetables, to balance blood sugar and reduce inflammation.

Why It Works: Proper food combinations support your body’s natural digestive processes, minimize stress on your gut, and promote nutrient absorption. It’s a practical, sustainable way to improve your digestion and overall health.

Ready to feel the difference? Start combining smarter today and experience better energy, reduced bloating, and vibrant gut health.

Reiki is a holistic healing practice that channels universal energy to promote physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. Originating in Japan, Reiki works by balancing the body’s energy flow, helping to reduce stress, enhance relaxation, and support the body’s natural healing processes. 

During a session, the practitioner uses gentle hand placements or hovers their hands over specific areas of the body, allowing energy to flow where it’s most needed.

Benefits of Reiki include: • Stress reduction and relaxation • Improved emotional clarity and balance • Enhanced sleep quality • Relief from physical discomfort • Support for overall healing and well-being

Whether you’re seeking to manage anxiety, boost your energy levels, or find harmony within, Reiki offers a non-invasive, deeply calming approach to wellness.  

We have Chrissy Rice who is a Reiki practitioner at Functional Yoga Medicine, you can find her at chrissyrice.com and on Instagram @chrissyricewellness.

In this episode, I take you through the deeply personal journey that led me to create the Functional Yoga Medicine Certified Practitioner (FYMCP) program. 

From my experiences as a clinician working within the limitations of traditional healthcare, to my own battle with kidney failure, a failed transplant, and the emotional toll of navigating a flawed system, I realized that true healing is much more than managing symptoms. 

Join me as I share how these challenges fueled my passion to create an integrative program that bridges the gaps in healthcare by addressing the mind, body, and spirit holistically. 

Discover why the FYMCP program is not just another certification, but a pathway to real, lasting transformation for both practitioners and their clients.
