In today’s episode, Dr. Michelle and I discuss her new book, "Living Well with Dr. Michelle," and explore some interesting concepts that can help us all improve our health. Here are three key takeaways that I think you’ll find helpful:  Dr. Michelle's CellWell model highlights that health starts with our cells. It focuses on four key needs: supplies (nutrients, water, air), support (environment and lifestyle), security (defense against harm), and signals (cell communication). This model simplifies health, emphasizing the importance of meeting our cells' needs for better well-being.  Dr. Michelle connects our health to the changing seasons, explaining that our bodies have different needs at different times. Through her seasonal assessment, you can identify what your body requires, such as using seasonal foods and practices to address symptoms like water retention or coldness in winter. This approach encourages adapting health strategies based on what your body needs. Dr. Michelle advocates for a holistic approach, viewing the body as a whole rather than focusing solely on symptoms. Sharing her journey, she highlights the influence of environment, nutrition, and lifestyle on health, encouraging natural solutions and addressing root causes before turning to medications or invasive treatments.

In today’s episode, Dr. Tyna and I discuss GLP-1 peptides, their benefits, and the misconceptions surrounding them. Here are my key takeaways that I believe everyone should consider:  Personalized Dosing is Key: Dr. Tyna emphasizes the importance of individualized dosing for GLP-1 peptides, noting that a one-size-fits-all approach is ineffective. Factors like weight, metabolic health, age, and lifestyle determine the appropriate dosage, helping to mitigate side effects and enhance therapeutic benefits. It’s a reminder that healthcare should always be tailored to the individual!  The Broader Benefits Beyond Weight Loss: While GLP-1s are known for weight loss, Dr. Tyna highlights their potential in areas like neuroinflammation, cardiovascular health, and autoimmune conditions. This shift in focus encourages us to consider the holistic benefits of these peptides for overall health and wellness.  I encourage everyone to listen to this episode for a deeper understanding of GLP-1 peptides and their potential impact on health. Dr. Tyna’s insights are invaluable, and I believe they can help many navigate their health journeys more effectively.

In today’s episode, Melissa shares her incredible journey through her breast cancer diagnoses, the challenges she faced, and the lessons she learned along the way. Melissa highlights the importance of knowing our bodies. Her breast cancer diagnosis at 24 was a wake-up call, underscoring the value of self-exams and understanding what's normal. Approaching health with curiosity, not fear, helps us notice changes and take proactive steps. She discusses how stored emotions, particularly anger, can manifest in physical ailments. Melissa encourages us to honor our feelings and process them rather than suppressing them.

She highlights the importance of integrating both conventional and alternative therapies for a more comprehensive approach to health. From dietary changes to emotional support and environmental adjustments, she believes that we have the power to influence our health positively.
