STARTER QUESTIONS:
- Tell us a little about yourself and how you became so passionate about helping other women, I know that everything changed for you when you had your children, as it did for me. A lot of women can relate to that!
- You are a big advocate for intermittent fasting, what is your daily eating schedule like?
- What kinds of foods do you eat, is there anything that is off limits for you?
- You are really outspoken about your faith, which I really respect! How has your relationship with God impacted your view of yourself, your body, and diet and exercise?
- Before we get to listener questions, tell us about some of the courses you offer, I know you offer one about emotional eating, and about intermittent fasting, what else do you provide?
LISTENER QUESTIONS:
Q1 - 16:18
I have a four-year-old daughter and recently gave birth to a son about 6 months ago. When I had my daughter, I was in my 20s and the weight literally fell off, but I am 31 now and it is completely different. I’ve tried cutting out sugar and carbs, but even that isn’t working. I hear you talking a lot about Intermittent Fasting on the podcast and want to try it, but I see a lot of mixed reviews for moms that are breastfeeding. What is your opinion on IF and breastfeeding?
-Mary in Dayton
Q2 - 19:46
You’ve mentioned before that one of the benefits of Intermittent Fasting is less meal prep- which I absolutely love! I typically eat one meal a day, which is dinner. By the time I get off work and pick up my kids from daycare, it’s almost 6 pm and I really don’t feel like cooking! But it is so important to me that my family sits down and eats dinner together like I did when I was growing up. Do you have any good meal prep tips to share so that I spend less time in the kitchen in the evening, but don’t settle for unhealthy, convenient foods?
-Jamie in Pittsburg
Q3 - 24:12
I loved your podcast about emotional eating! I took your online quiz and determined that I am a stress eater, which didn’t surprise me one bit. I love to go through the drive-through at the end of a stressful day. I have been really mindful about finding other outlets for my stress, and have been doing a lot better. The area I still struggle with is my bored eating, mostly at night when I am hanging out at home. I just can’t stop grazing! Do you have any tips to help with this?
-Ashley in Northern Virginia
Q4 - 30:06
I am really frustrated because I have been working out with a trainer 3x a week for the past two months, and am not seeing results. The first month, I didn’t lose any weight but I was kind of prepared for that because I heard it was normal. However, I just had my month 2 weigh in and the scale has only budged a pound! Do you think I am not doing the right kinds of exercises with my trainer? What kind of exercise do you recommend? As for my eating, I am sticking to a 6-hour eating window each day, and trying to stay under 1600 calories. Am I eating too much in my window? HELP!
* Jennifer in Louisiana
Q5 - 33:32
I’ve been married for about a year now. As soon as I got married I determined that I was not going to be that person who let herself go once she landed a guy! Around that time I started Intermittent Fasting. Most days I eat in about a 6-hour window, sometimes I eat One Meal A Day. This sounds weird, but I’ve noticed lately it is taking a toll on my relationship! My husband works crazy hours, and our time to connect is in the evenings. One of our favorite things to do is go out and have dinner, or make something really yummy at home and enjoys it together with wine. Typically, this didn’t happen till 8 or 9. Now that I am limiting my eating window, I can’t do this anymore…esp on days I eat one meal a day, there’s no way in heck I can wait til 8p. My husband mentioned the other day that he misses this. I love fasting and don’t want to sacrifice my health but I also don’t want my marriage to suffer. What do you recommend?

Listener Questions:
Q1 - 17:57
Q: I loved your podcast with Dr. Eric Z, and I ordered all of his favorite essential oils- Clove, Peppermint, Lemon, Lime, Grapefruit, and Lavender. Since I got them, they’ve been sitting on my desk! I had really good intentions but just don’t know how to get started using them consistently! How should I be using these? The main issues I struggle with are the side effects that come along with my thyroid issues- exhaustion, constipation, cold all the time, brittle nails/hair, etc. How should I use these oils?
- Kristy in Indiana
Q2 - 24:27
Q: I know that standard deodorant with antiperspirant can be really harmful, especially for women when it comes to breast health. I have tried to switch to a natural blend I found at Whole foods and I just haven’t been able to do it! Now that the weather has cooled down for the winter, I want to try again. You’ve talked before about one that you use from TJ Max, but I can’t remember what it was called? Could you talk about some of your favorite all natural brands for deodorant and skin care?
- Tamara in Sacramento
Q3 - 28:32
Q: I ordered a Mitochondria Detox after a recent podcast, and I was really excited to start it! Around day 3-4 I became violently ill, I threw up 15 times over the period of two days. I don’t usually get sick to my stomach like this, and no one else around me had a stomach bug. It didn’t even occur to me until a few days ago that maybe it was the Detox that was making me sick. Do you think my body was rejecting the detox products themselves, or that this was my body getting rid of the junk? Or do you think this was just a coincidence?
- Michelle in New York
Q4 - 31:15
Q: My husband and I wrote an offer on a home and held a termite/mold inspection. The inspection came back that there are some mold spores, but they aren’t black. My agent told me that not all mold is dangerous, that I don’t have anything to worry about with this particular type. What I am reading online seems to say that toxic molds are usually black. I got spooked and we walked away from the house, but now I am curious about this as we continue our home search. What should I be concerned with, and what should I treat and overlook?
- Elizabeth in Greenville
Q5 - 33:26
Q: An article that I read recently talked about taking natural binders to assist with detox. I was surprised to learn some semi-common things like cilantro can act as a binder! I also have read a lot about activated charcoal, which I have bought at Whole Foods before to help with hangovers. What are some of the best, non-prescription binders that you recommend, and do you recommend any of the prescription ones?
-Amy in Virginia Beach
Q6 - 37:21
Q: I just got diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis, I tried with my diet for 2 years. I eat lots of healthy fats, eggs, avocado, and a keto diet. After 2 years of just trying with my diet, I finally decided to get on prescription meds for my rheumatoid arthritis. I'm now regretting the decision. Why do you think I couldn't keep this under control with my diet and do you maybe think my diet wasn't clean enough??

Listener Questions:
1 - 5:40
Q: I just got back from France, and before I went one of my friends said to me "If you go to France you can eat all the foods that you cant here". When I'm here in American, I can't eat beer, ice cream, or bread and if I do I break out in psoriasis all over my body, but she was right. When I was in France I ate all the dairy, the beer, and the bread I wanted and I had no psoriasis. As soon as I came back and tried to eat a little bit here and broke out. What is the deal??
Frank in Florida
2 - 13:06
Q: I feel like there is something wrong with my liver because I have been having heart palpitations. When I was looking up my symptoms on Dr. Google, it said I might be having a problem with the secretion of bile, which would cause the liver issues. Can you explain more about bile and how it works? With the symptoms I am having, it seems like something is wrong with my liver, gallbladder, or bile secretion. How can I be sure? Is there a way to tell if my bile is normal?
- Nicole in Arkansas
3 - 22:02
Q: For years I've used this to help me go poop like senna and different teas. Now I can't go poop if I don't have it so it's a bad spiral. I feel like its bad for my body to keep depending on these different teas that make me go poop, and different aloes and pills, but If i dont do it, I cant poop and I feel terrible. What should I do?
Jackson in San Diego
4 - 25:26
Q: I've been having sharp pains in my heart and when I googled the rest of my symbols and I read something that this could e a gallbladder issue. How could my heart be affected by my gallbladder? this doesn't even make sense. Is this possible?
Lexi in Norfolk
5 - 27:56
Q: Because of the research I’ve done, I have completely removed Gluten from my diet because of my autoimmune issues, but I am really struggling to give up dairy. Everyone I talk to says that it will really help me, but I just LOVE my cheese. Is there a way to tell if I am specifically allergic to dairy? If I was, what would my symptoms be?
-Angela in Pigeon Forge
6 - 30:18
Q: Greetings! My name is Lee-Anne from South Africa and I love your podcast - it's a wealth of information and I enthusiastically look forward to each one...My question involves Sole, pronounced Soh-ley. I'm pretty sure you might have heard of it before, but if not, it's a mixture of distilled water that's been fully saturated with Pink Himalayan Salt. I fast with Sole and add it to my water all day long. Personally, I drink loads of water during the day, as it helps me get through my fast and avoid headaches. Whenever I struggle with the fast, drinking Sole magically makes it easier to fast for a couple of hours more. Its extremely comforting to me, like hot chocolate on a rainy day...and my brain seems to strangely associate this with warm soup?? In total, I add about 3 tablespoons of Sole to my water per day. I doubt it breaks the fast as it takes my hunger away - but I'm wondering what the effects of it may be on other benefits of fasting such as Autophagy?
-Lee-Anne South Africa
7 - 33:17
Q: I’ve been taking a parasite to cleanse, and every time I go to the bathroom, I check my stool to see if I see anything worm-like, and I don’…everything looks normal. Does this mean I don’t have parasites and I could quit? When I do these cleanses, they just don’t make me feel good. Should I see a Doctor for a stool sample? I don’t want to put my body through these side effects of the cleanses if it’s not necessary.
-Anonymous
8 - 38:36
Q: To make a long story short, I was recently diagnosed with MS, about 3 months ago. I am only 29 and this was really upsetting for me, because I felt my whole life was over. My Doctor has been experimenting with different medicines, and the side effects have been horrible, I feel like I am on a roller coaster. It is daunting to me to think that I may have to be on medication for the rest of my life, but I want to do anything I can to keep the symptoms at bay and keep this from progressing. Do you know of any more natural alternatives that I could consider? I am open to any supplements, homeopathic medication, and diet and lifestyle changes so that I can live my life as much as possible.
-Jamie in Colorado
9 - 44:00
Q: I loved your podcast with Dr Evan Brand! I learned so much from him. One of the things he touched on, but didn’t go too deep was the harmfulness of hair dye. This struck me because I realized that hair dye is basically the only product in my life that I have not gone natural with. I have a ton of gray hair, and letting them show is not an option HAHA! If I have gone all natural and organic with literally EVERYTHING else, how important is it that I give up my hair dye? Are there any ingredients or products that I should specifically avoid, and what ingredients could I look for in a healthier alternative?
-Christine in Florida
10 - 46:55
Q: I read an article about the CBD oil not being regulated, and how when you take it, you don’t know how much you are actually getting, the milligrams can vary, and even if it says 750 mg, there’s no way to know for sure. It kinda freaked me out so I quit taking it for about a week (after taking it for about four months) and I feel terrible. Do you think it’s a coincidence, or there really is something to this CBD. Is this just another fad? I am always very hesitant of Multi Level Marketing products. What’s your opinion?
-Jenna in Alexandria
11 - 49:37
Q: Hi I Love love your show! I find it very helpful and I listen to it every week. I am a 48-year-old woman, married with 2 kids, I still have regular periods except for the last 4 months. Stressful things can bring it on early or skip it. I experience severe insomnia, usually around the hours of 1 to 3:30 in the morning. It wipes me out not getting good sleep. I’m assuming it’s my hormones, I read a lot about Maca and black Cohosh, to help with sleep but I also heard that you can gain weight on it, that is something I do not want. It’s hard enough to lose weight after 40. Yet I need sleep especially with a lot of family stress (aging parents). I do suffer from low iron count and chronic fatigue, if that helps.
Thank you for taking the time reading this.
-Rebecca from Wisconsin
12 - 53:05
Q: My local tanning salon has a red light therapy chamber which I’ve tried a couple times and it feels really nice! I know that on your podcast you’ve talked about it helping with psoriasis, which is not something that I struggle with. What are some of the other benefits of red light therapy, and do you think there is really something to it? Or is it just what my mom would call another snake oil! LOL.
-Chelsea in Greenville
13 - 56:34
Q: I heard a podcast that said I should not juice because it removes the fiber, and I should be drinking smoothies. But the next thing you hear says juice juice juice, it’s the best thing for you! I know that you talk about drinking green juices and feeling really good. What is your opinion on juices vs smoothies?

Listener Questions:
Q1 - 15:47
Q: I am trying to figure out what is wrong with me (WHO ISN’T? 😊), because I feel like I haven’t been well in several months but can’t determine that cause. I thought it could be a candida issue, but I had a stool test done it looked completely normal. Should I rule out candida all together, or is there another way I could test this?
-Pam in Houston
Q2 - 18:44
Q: One of my friends (who is a health NUT) recently had her feces sampled to check her gut microbiome. This is something that I never heard of and just sounded a little extreme. I’ve heard a lot about Gut Health lately, my Instagram feed has tons of people selling products to increase my gut health. When I was growing up, my Grandma always told me to eat yogurt for a healthy stomach, but I don’t prefer dairy products and try to limit my carbs. What are some other things I could be doing/drinking/taking/eating to encourage a healthy gut, without going too overboard like my friend?
* Alyssa in Chesapeake
Q3 - 23:06
Q: I have had stomach issues for A LONG time and my Doctor recently diagnosed me with IBS. He gave me a prescription to use as needed, but I really want to take a more natural approach. What are some natural ways I can treat this, and what are some foods I should avoid and foods I should focus on eating? I know that stress is something that really plays a part in this, so I would also love any pointers you have in managing that.
* Courtney in Virginia Beach
Q4 - 26:21
Q: I have gone pretty much chemical free, except for my perfume, Marc Jacobs Daisy is my signature scent, everyone knows me by it! My hippy friends harass me saying that it doesn’t do me good to cut out the chemicals around me if I am still using this perfume. Is that true, is my perfume this harmful? I can’t find a great alternative, I have tried mixing some different essential oils and it’s not the same.
* Beth in Georgia
Q5 - 30:11
Q: I have been struggling a lot with depression lately. I’ve been talking to a counselor and it helps some, but I am still trying to figure out the root cause because I really don’t have anything going horribly wrong in my life to make me this upset. I feel like I am walking around in a fog. I am tired all the time, and you can even see it on my skin and on my face. I started reading different things online and came upon a blog that recommended a Liver Cleanse. I have never been a heavy drinker, so I am not sure that liver issues are what I am struggling with, but a lot of what I was reading about liver cleanses seemed to apply to me. Is this something you recommend? If so, what is the best protocol for a liver cleanse?
-Tiffany in Merrimack
Q6 - 36:41
Q: I suffer from Psoriasis, and I love that you taught me how to improve it with intermittent fasting. I’ve also noticed that certain foods make it worse, especially gluten and dairy. I do my best to limit these foods, and when I do, my psoriasis is so much better! But I still can’t get it to go away completely. I know that you deal with Psoriasis as well, but you haven’t talked about it as much on the podcast lately. Have you had any recent breakthroughs or found anything that is really helping you? I’d love to hear about it from your next doctor that comes on too!
* Stacey in Grand Rapids
Q7 - 42:22
Q: What has been your experience with Pepsin? I friend of mine recently offered it to me after lunch. Haha! She said that it helps a lot with digestion, but when I was reading online, I saw a lot of adverse effects like constipation and gas. It seems kinda counterintuitive! Have you tried this before?
-Maddie in Florida
Q8 - 44:37
Q: In a recent podcast you talked about things that can be endocrine disruptors, such as drinking out of a plastic cup. I am not going to lie, this episode had me a little paranoid because I started doing some research and learned that these disruptors can be found everywhere, in detergents, cans, etc. If I think about it too much, I could go crazy. What are some of the main disruptors I should be aware of and try to avoid?

More on Dr. Gersh: http://www.felicelgershmd.com/
Listener Questions:4
Q1 - 2:49
Q: In her last podcast, Dr. Gersh said that birth control pills can alter the gut microbiome in negative ways. There isn’t a lot of info about this online, so I am hoping she can explain it a little more. I don’t want to be on the pill, but I also do not want to be pregnant. Can you talk about healthier alternatives for birth control? What about the IUDs?
* Regina in Florida
Q2 - 8:09
Q: I've been wanting to get pregnant and I'm struggling. I'm eating clean, I'm having sex when I'm supposed to and the doctors can't figure out why I'm not getting pregnant. Can you give me any ideas of what I'm doing wrong to not get pregnant?
*Anonymous
Q3 - 11:22
Q: I wanted to let you know before I did intermittent fasting, my period was all over the place. Once I started doing intermittent fasting the first few weeks my period was still all over the place. After I did it for 30 days and consistently did intermittent fasting eating in a 6 hours window, my period is now perfect every time. I am exactly going by my app, and im getting my period when I'm supposed to!
Q4 - 14:17
Q: I consider myself to be pretty organic, I eat really clean and use a lot of all natural body products and home products. One thing I haven’t really switched is to organic tampons, mostly because they are so expensive! Do you think there is a big difference in organic tampons and regular? What kind do you recommend?
-Carmen in Lubbock, TX
Q5 - 16:51
Q: In your last podcast, you talked about taking Lysteda to help with bleeding during your period. I mentioned it to my Doctor, and he has never heard of it. Can you talk more about the use and dosage of this, is it just something I take during my period? I don’t like to take a lot of medicine, but I would consider something that’s only taken as needed a few days per month. Is this how it works?
* Courtney in South Carolina
Q6 - 19:21
Q: I had a radical hysterectomy in my early 50’s because of a cancerous cyst. At the time, my Dr didn’t want me to take any hormones because of the cancer scare. It’s been about 7-8 years since the surgery, and I haven’t found any good alternatives to use as natural hormone replacement. What would you recommend?
* -Terri in Fluvanna
Q7 - 23:31
Q: I recently was tested for BRCA and tested positive for the BRCA1 mutation. I am overwhelmed with decisions on how I should move forward, should I freeze my eggs, should I remove my breasts, have a hysterectomy…I don’t know where to begin. On top of all these big decisions I am facing, I am also thinking about the little ones like what should I be eating, and what can I be doing to make myself as healthy as possible? I want to do anything that I can, what do you recommend?
-Anonymous
Q8 - 28:03
Q: I was talking with a few close girlfriends the other night about our stress and anxiety. Several of them are on anti depressants/anti anxiety medicine but that is not something that I am ready to explore, mostly because of the side effects, and also because I hate taking medication. I focus a lot on prayer, meditation, bubble baths..all the natural stuff but I have been doing some reading and I am wondering if some or all of my anxiety could be hormonal. How do I recognize anxiety that is related to my hormones, and how can I regulate it naturally without a prescription?
