  • Episode 104: The Real Causes of IBD (Chrons & Colitis)

    Episode 104: The Real Causes of IBD (Chrons & Colitis)
    Jan 12 2026
    Inflammatory Bowel Disease is often explained as a “gut issue” or something managed solely with immune-suppressing medications. But the science tells a much deeper story. In this episode of Wholistic Living, we break down what actually drives IBD at the immune, genetic, and microbial level, including mechanisms that are rarely discussed in conventional care.

    You’ll learn:
    • Why certain genetic SNPs (like NOD2, ATG16L1, IL23R, CARD9, and FUT2) make some people far more susceptible to chronic gut inflammation
    • How loss of key probiotic strains and microbial metabolites can lock the immune system into an inflammatory loop
    • The emerging role of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and the gut virome in worsening disease severity
    • Why fungi, oral bacteria, and barrier dysfunction matter far more than most people realize How IBD progresses beyond simple flare-and-remission cycles

    This episode connects cutting-edge immunology research with real-world clinical insight to help you understand why IBD behaves the way it does, and why a one-size-fits-all approach rarely works. If you or someone you love is navigating Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis, this conversation will change how you think about inflammation, gut health, and personalized healing.

  • Episode 99: Why HbA1c Is More Than Just Blood Sugar

    Episode 99: Why HbA1c Is More Than Just Blood Sugar
    Oct 28 2025
    In this episode of Wholistic Living, we’re unpacking the truth about HbA1c, insulin resistance, and metabolic health, beyond just what you eat. You’ll learn exactly what HbA1c measures, how insulin works on a cellular level to move glucose into your cells for ATP energy, and what happens when that process breaks down. We’ll explore how stress, poor sleep, inflammation, toxins, and hormone imbalances all drive insulin resistance, even if your diet looks “clean.” I also share the most effective supplements for improving insulin sensitivity and supporting healthy HbA1c levels, including magnesium, inositol, berberine, fish oil, NAC, glycine, alpha-lipoic acid, and plant sterols and explain how each one helps your cells use glucose efficiently instead of storing it as fat. If you’ve ever struggled with blood sugar swings, fatigue after meals, high cholesterol, or stubborn weight gain, this episode connects the dots between glucose metabolism, hormones, and holistic healing.
