"It’s not ok for people in the ‘intuitive eating’ space to shame people who follow certain healing diets. It’s unfair for them to judge, because if you haven’t struggled with that health issue or haven’t had that experience , you just don’t know what it’s like. At the end of the day, intuitive eating is just eating foods that make YOU feel comfortable in YOUR body"
Christina Rice is a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, Primal Health Coach, and Reiki Practitioner. She is the creator of the Paleo Women Lifestyle Program, host of Wellness Realness podcast, and the blogger behind christinaricewellness.com. Christina struggled with a number of health problems over the years including extreme malabsorption, SIBO, Candida overgrowth, parasites, hypothyroidism, insulin resistance, amenorrhea, autoimmune issues, anxiety, depression, and acne, but she didn’t find relief or support through the Western medical system. Eventually she discovered the power of the paleo diet and lifestyle, which helped her finally turn her health around and transform her life as a whole. Ever since experiencing the healing properties of nutrient-dense food, positive lifestyle changes, and energy healing firsthand, she has dedicated herself to helping others find similar transformations in their own lives.

"These low grade exposures to environmental chemicals day in, day out, do in fact contribute to just about every chronic illness that people are experiencing. They can interfere with everything from brain development and gut health to hormones. It can take decades for the symptoms of these exposures too manifest"
Lara Adler is an Environmental Toxins Expert & Educator and a Certified Holistic Health Coach who teaches health coaches, nutritionists, and other holistic health practitioners how to eliminate the #1 thing holding their clients back from the results they are seeking – the unaddressed link between chemicals and chronic health problems. She trains practitioners to become experts in everyday toxic exposures so they can improve client outcomes without spending hundreds of hours researching on their own.
Combining environmental health education and business consulting, she’s helped thousands of health professionals in over 25 countries around the world elevate their skillset, get better results for their clients, and become sought out leaders in the growing environmental health & detoxification field.

#30 Further Investigations into Female Infertility with Angela Heap
Monday Aug 12, 2019
Monday Aug 12, 2019
"There are so many nutrients required when we are pregnant. The baby is always fine, because it will pull the nutrients it needs from wherever, but unfortunately the mothers can become very depleted. These nutrient deficiencies can increase the risk of develop thyroid issues, post partum"

Angela also works closely with a number of internationally renowned experts in the field of fertility and is the fertility and pregnancy specialist on the 2nd Largest MTHFR gene mutation forum on Facebook MTHFR A1298c, with 14,000 members.

We prepare for careers and marriage, so we should also be preparing more for pregnancy. My recommendation is that if you are on a hormonal method, consider coming off 18 months to 2 years before you are ready to start trying. Not because its impossible to get pregnant right off the pill, but you don’t know what’s going to happen with your hormones and cycle.
Lisa Hendrickson-Jack is a certified Fertility Awareness Educator and Holistic Reproductive Health Practitioner who teaches women to chart their menstrual cycles for natural birth control, conception, and monitoring overall health. In her new book The Fifth Vital Sign, Lisa debunks the myth that regular ovulation is only important when you want children by recognising the menstrual cycle as a vital sign. Drawing heavily from the current scientific literature, Lisa presents an evidence-based approach to fertility awareness and menstrual cycle optimisation. She hosts the Fertility Friday Podcast, a weekly radio show devoted to helping women connect to their fifth vital sign by uncovering the connection between menstrual cycle health, fertility, and overall health.
