Episode 11.
In this episode, we discuss the review paper Dr. Minich co-authored with Weston Petroski about anti-nutrients. In this review, they took a deep dive into the scientific literature and debated what they gleaned. They also suggest how to prep the foods in question if you are concerned or feel you don't respond well to certain foods. Nutrition is very individual at the end of the day.
We also discuss the emerging literature on the benefits of "anti-nutrients" for the gut lining, colon cancer, and inflammatory markers. And the more recent discovery that oxalates chelate heavy metals? Nature is so cool. I hope you enjoy this conversation!
Dr. Deanna Minich is an internationally-recognized teacher, author, scientist, speaker, and artist.
She has more than 20 years of diverse, well-rounded experience in the fields of nutrition and functional medicine, including clinical practice, research, product formulation, writing, and education. Her doctoral (Ph.D.) research focused on essential fatty acid absorption and metabolism, and her Master of Science degree (M.S.) allowed her to explore the health benefits of the colorful, plant-based carotenoids. She has authored six books on health and wellness and over forty scientific publications. Currently, she serves as advisor to various food, academic and health organizations and teaches as Faculty for the Institute for Functional Medicine and the University of Western States. She has developed an online certification program for health professionals so that they can apply the color-coded 7 Systems of Full-Spectrum Health in their practice. Her lectures are heard by patients and practitioners throughout the world. Dr. Minich’s passion is teaching a whole-self approach to nourishment and bridging the gaps between science, spirituality, and art in medicine.

Today's Podcast is a solo podcast. In this episode, I share my thoughts and experience around healing my body.
Healing a body is much different than keeping a body well. Many in the social health space are putting out information helpful to healthy people. Balance? A fantastic idea, but seldom beneficial for those who are unwell. The unwell often need a complete course correction in diet, lifestyle, mind, and spirit to change the tides of disease. I hope my healing story helps illuminate the path ahead and provides some actionable insights. I was safely unwell for a long time before I got sick. Not knowing that my idea of balance was feeding my disease silently. These days I live well, eat well, and help others do the same.

Kalie shares her Ulcerative Colitis healing story. I enjoyed supporting Kalie through the healing process and excited to share her story with you. The power of food can't be denied, even for IBD. While battling Crohn's, I was often told that diet didn't matter. Or that diet alone wouldn't be the answer—diet matters. Our food supports our cellular health, so diet is a big deal.
