June 03261: Why You are Losing Hair and the Breakthrough Treatment That's Bringing it Back - Part 2 with Jason Carpenter
I’m excited to have Jason Carpenter, a TED (Trans Epidermal Delivery) expert from Alma lasers, joining me today for the second part of a deep dive into hair loss and hair restoration.
Jason works closely with physicians, practices, and key opinion leaders to establish and validate clinical protocols and ensure treatments are performed correctly for the best patient outcomes.
In Part 1, I give a brief overview of TED as the foundation for today’s conversation. If you missed it, please listen to Part 1 first.
How to get the best results from TED hair restoration treatments:
• Start treatments as soon as possible to avoid severe hair loss
• Don’t try to over-saturate certain areas during treatment
• Avoid stressing your hair with dyes, harsh treatments, sweating, or vigorous washing around treatment time
• Develop healthy lifestyle habits to improve your overall health

May 27260: Why You are Losing Hair and the Breakthrough Treatment That's Bringing it Back Part 1 with Stephanie Gray
Welcome to a two-part series on hair loss.
Hair loss is often a sign that something in the body is out of balance, whether it’s a nutritional deficiency, hormone imbalance, gut dysfunction, chronic stress, or toxic exposure. Hair restoration is all about identifying the root cause and then optimizing your health from the inside out.
Today, in Part 1, I explain why hair loss happens and how to test for it. I also clarify what a personalized treatment plan should look like and introduce the TED treatment (Trans Epidermal Delivery), which has shown remarkable results at our clinic.
In Part 2, Jason Carpenter, a TED device expert from Alma Lasers with over 25 years of experience in the aesthetic industry, joins me to explore the science and clinical data, highlight who would be a good candidate, and explain the results you can expect.
So, if you or someone you know is experiencing thinning hair, this series will offer you hope by providing clear answers and offering practical direction.
How to identify the root causes of hair loss
Get comprehensively tested instead of guessing what’s driving the hair loss

Check your thyroid function with a full panel, not just basic markers

Measure your iron stores (ferritin), not just standard iron levels

Assess any nutrient deficiencies linked to hair growth

Screen for hidden contributors like gut issues or toxic exposures

May 20259: Test, Don't Guess: The Labs and Supplements Every Woman Needs
Did you know that the birth control pill can deplete B vitamins? And that coffee, alcohol, and antacids can drain the nutrients your body needs for hormone production, quality sleep, and bone health?
Most women I see in my clinic unknowingly lack key nutrients. So, in this episode, I break down which lab tests and supplements are most effective for restoring nutrient balance and supporting long-term health and vitality.
Magnesium: deficiency signs, dosing, and supplement forms
Muscle cramps, headaches, anxiety, and trouble sleeping could all be linked to low magnesium

Constipation and restless legs often improve when magnesium levels are supported

Chronic stress could increase your body’s magnesium needs

Loose stools can be a sign that your magnesium dose is too high

You can take different forms of magnesium for sleep, anxiety, or muscle support

May 13258: The Rainbow Prescription: How Food Colors Heal Your Body – Stephanie Gray
Would you believe that the most powerful medicine cabinet in your house is in your refrigerator, not your bathroom?
The prescription is ridiculously simple: Your plate should look like a rainbow.
Eating the rainbow is not just another wellness trend. Stay tuned to learn why food color matters, and what each hue does for your body.
Some simple tips for “eating the rainbow”:
Add more colorful foods to the meals you already enjoy

Use simple add-ins that don’t noticeably change the taste (e.g., spinach in smoothies)

Aim to include all five color groups across your day, but not necessarily in every meal

Keep frozen fruits and vegetables on hand as a backup option

Improve your gut health

Prioritise sleep

Do strength training and consume sufficient protein to build muscle

April 29256: Hormones, Longevity, Faith & the Perimenopause Reset with Dr. Jenny Pfleghaar - Part 1
I’m excited to have Dr. Jen Pfleghaar with me for a two-part series on perimenopause, hormones, stress-cycle syncing, and faith.
Stay tuned for Part 1!
How to work with your hormones instead of fighting them
Work with your cycle: you’re more resilient to stress in the follicular phase, and need more calm and recovery in the luteal phase

Eat with your cycle: fasting, low carb, or keto work better in the follicular phase, while the luteal phase needs more calories, healthy fats, protein, and some carbs

Fast at the right time: intermittent fasting or longer fasts are better in the follicular phase, but can trigger a cortisol response in the luteal phase

Train with your cycle: HIIT, heavy lifting, and pushing for PRs fit the follicular phase, while the luteal phase calls for mobility, walking, and less intense training

Pay attention to your body: changes in hunger, energy, and cravings are driven by your hormones, which shift throughout your cycle

In this episode:
How inconsistent practices and “wild west” hormone information lead to confusion about hormone therapy

How conventional care often focuses on managing symptoms rather than identifying root causes

Why it’s essential to address the root causes of autoimmune conditions

How early perimenopause symptoms are often overlooked in conventional medical care, even when women experience clear physical and emotional changes
The link between symptoms like anxiety, palpitations, and cycle changes and shifting hormones in perimenopause
How increasing dietary restrictions and exercise intensity in response to weight gain increases cortisol and works against hormones
The importance of adjusting your lifestyle habits to match the various phases of your menstrual cycle

April 22255: Red Light Therapy: Hype, Hope, or Healing with Dr. Stephanie Gray
Is red light therapy real- or just hype?
More and more people are questioning whether it actually does anything, or if it’s just another wellness trend that will quietly fade away over the next 18 months.
In today’s solo episode, I explore the science behind red light therapy, explain what we use in our clinic and why, and walk you through what a typical session looks like, highlighting who should avoid this therapy.
How to use red light therapy more effectively
Focus on consistency over quick wins as results build gradually with repeated sessions

Choose clinically validated devices rather than low-powered consumer versions

Expose as much skin as possible to allow the light to reach the targeted tissues

Use proper eye protection for every session

Be upfront about your current medications and health history to allow proper screening

What photobiomodulation (the clinical term for red light therapy) actually means and how it influences biological processes

How red light therapy targets the mitochondria to boost ATP production and cellular energy

What a recent study suggests about the impact photobiomodulation has on cells under metabolic stress

How a 2025 consensus review of over 20 specialists confirmed the safety of photobiomodulation for adults

I’m excited to welcome Dr. Peter Osborne for the second part of a two-part series.
Last week, we explored the truth about grains. Today, in Part Two, we tackle something more hidden and potentially far more devastating. Dr. Osborne has been working on a documentary called Mold Jacked, where he reveals how mold can steal your health, your hope, and your wealth, as well as common building mistakes that make it all too easy for these problems to take hold.

In this episode:
How mold can outcompete gluten in driving symptoms

Why mold illness is far more complex than a simple allergy

Three ways in which mold can affect the body, and why most people only hear about allergies

How invisible toxins in the air can affect your body

Why some people suddenly react to everything after mold exposure

April 08253: The Grain Illusion: How Your "Healthy" Breakfast Could Be Quietly Destroying Your Health
I’m excited to welcome Dr. Peter Osborne for a two-part series.
Most of us grew up hearing that whole grains are good for us. But what if that's wrong?
Today, in Part One, Dr. Osborne breaks down how his book, No Grain No Pain, challenges almost everything we've been told about healthy eating. He clarifies what grains are actually doing inside our body, and why he believes they're foundational to many chronic illnesses.
Tips to reduce immune reactions from grains and gluten
Track your reactions and consider eliminating all grains if your symptoms persist on a standard gluten-free diet

Limit your use of medications that erode the gut lining

Address nutrient deficiencies and chemical exposure

Change your diet and lifestyle instead of relying on medications

In this episode:
Why gluten is far more complex than most people realize

How standard gluten tests can fail to detect many reactions

Some common gluten-free dietary mistakes

Why only removing wheat may not resolve ongoing inflammation

How grains other than wheat can still drive an immune response

Four main triggers, apart from gluten, that contribute to autoimmune conditions

How a breached gut barrier causes hypersensitized immune responses

Why certain symptoms may take decades to appear despite ongoing damage

April 01252: What's Really in Your Pantry? Understanding Seed Oils
Today, we’re diving into one of the most heated debates in functional medicine right now. We’re talking about the vegetable and seed oils that you likely have in your kitchen cabinet. Your grandmother cooked with them, and the American Heart Association has promoted them as “heart-healthy” for decades. Yet some experts are now saying that they are slowly poisoning an entire generation.
Practical tips for reducing your seed oil consumption:
Replace your cooking oil with a more stable alternative

Check the labels on everyday foods for seed oils

Cut back on processed foods

Be mindful when eating out

Don’t aim for perfection—focus on reducing the main sources first
