Real Health Conversations
Real Health Conversations (Formerly Low-Carb Conversations) is hosted by Holly Jean Mullen, FNTP and features a variety of voices in the world of modern nutrition and health science, expressing many different points of view.

This week we have a masterclass on digestion in our Foundations Series.

The digestive system plays a major role in your overall health as it brings nutrients to your body. Without good digestive health, you will experience a host of uncomfortable symptoms such as abdominal pain, bloating, indigestion, and more. Additionally, you may also get a lack of proper nutrition from the food you eat, which can negatively impact your health and wellbeing. This is why digestive health is so important.

So, how do you keep your digestive system healthy? Listen to find out!

Show your lymph some love! Dayna Marsh joins the show today to talk about the benefits of lymphatic massage. Dayna is a Licensed Massage Therapist, Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, and owner of Body Therapy Salt Lake, in Salt Lake City, UT. She offers in person massage therapy sessions and in person or virtual nutritional therapy services.

Lymph, is like blood in that they both are liquids circulating in the body. Unlike red blood’s circular, pumped by the heart movement, lymph moves just one way: out. However, lymph has no organ pump so it’s up to individuals to help move it along.

Lymph is the body’s liquid trash can. It picks up waste products formed from all the chemical reactions needed to keep people alive, ushering them out of the body. 

Besides the congested head, puffy eyes, and swollen ankles that signal lymphatic dysfunction, there are more signs and symptoms of lymph blockages that may not be as obvious as fluid buildup. However, they can be severe lymph-related issues just the same. These signs include: 

  • Bloated stomach or extremities
  • Brain fog
  • Cellulite
  • Chronic headaches 
  • Chronic sinus infections 
  • Constipation
  • Eczema 
  • Excessive sweating
  • Mucus and phlegm production
  • Painful and hard swellings (especially in armpits, groin area, and neck)
  • Sluggishness
  • Stiff or painful joints

Key takeaway from this episode: If you have one or more of these signs of lymphatic blockage, you can’t eliminate toxins, and you’d benefit from supporting your lymphatic system with massage and a variety of other techniques.

“We are suffering unnecessarily because our physical bodies are out of balance.” Dr. Vora

Our guest this week is Dr. Ellen Vora, a board-certified psychiatrist, acupuncturist, and yoga teacher, and she is the author of The Anatomy of Anxiety. She takes a functional medicine approach to mental health—considering the whole person and addressing imbalance at the root. Dr. Vora received her B.A. from Yale University and her M.D. from Columbia University.

It’s normal to occasionally experience anxiety, such as when we’re faced with a high-stakes meeting, a stressed-out boss, or a conflict with a colleague. But according to the National Institute of Mental Health, in any given year, 19% of U.S. adults are suffering from an anxiety disorder, and 31% will deal with a disorder at least once in their lifetime.  

Dr. Vora explains false anxiety – avoidable anxiety, causes real suffering but can have a straight forward, physical basis. When anxious, we tend to get trapped in false or limited ways of thinking – not that the feelings we are experiencing aren’t real or valid. However, these thought patterns create a debilitating negative spiral that can take over our lives by convincing us of impending doom and further exacerbating our sense of helplessness. Dr. Vora shares her tips to learn how to translate anxious feelings into purposeful action.

It may be small, but your thyroid is a mighty organ that is responsible for many important functions that can make a huge difference in your health. Metabolism, hormones, digestion, brain, and so much more are all affected by how well (or not) the thyroid is functioning. When the thyroid is not working well, you may feel pretty miserable. Thyroid disorders are common, affecting over 20 million Americans every year, and even more common in women (1 in 8 women will have a thyroid disorder at some point in life). 

Our guest today is Dr. Eric Balcavage – Dr. Balcavage is a Doctor of Chiropractic, Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner, Certified Nutrition Specialist, Board Certified in Integrative Medicine, Certified Gluten Coach and the Clinic Director at Rejuvagen Center in Pennsylvania.

There is SO much information about food and exercise circling about, and it’s often conflicting or confusing. Perhaps you’ve tried a diet and failed, started an exercise routine and stopped, lost weight and then gained it back. I can relate because I’ve done all of those things.”

Who can relate? I sure can. Our guest today is Lindsay Young a certified transformational nutrition coach and strength and conditioning coach, a business owner, a wife, and a busy mom of 3 and she has mastered the balancing act of taking care of herself and her health as well as all of her other responsibilities. By including herself in her list of priorities, she is able to easily say no to the things that don’t fit the vision she has for herself, her family, and her life. In this episode, she breaks it down for us and how we can do the same.

As you know, as we age our bodies change – and what has always worked for us, might not always work – and the frustration comes from the trying to figure out the next thing that will work for us. Did you know that managing blood sugar could be the silver bullet to so many health challenges, as well as a huge obstacle for managing consistency? Lindsay explains how our blood sugar controls hormones and hunger cues and could be sabotaging your progress.

If you have been in a health rut or are burnt out on striving but falling short from thriving, this episode might be just the spark of inspiration you need to look at it with a different perspective.

Home is a place that should be safe and comfortable, not the place we want to associate as a source of health issues and potential problems.

However, the truth is out – your home environments could be negatively affecting you and your family’s health. Luckily, there are solutions! There are ways to minimize exposure or avoid the risk altogether.

In this episode I am presenting directly from my FREE Healthy Home Guide that I created just for you. I’ve taken all of the questions I’ve heard over the years – What is Toxic Load? How can I tell if I’m (or my children/family) are being negatively affected by environmental toxins? Where/How do I get started with cleaning up our home environment?

I have been listening!!! I hear you. I know you know this is important, I know it has been in the back of your mind, on your to-do list, for quite some time. Getting started is the hardest part so I’m going to make this really easy for you. This is not a daunting task when you have your plan. Overwhelm is not even an option when you see how simply I break it down for you. You are going to feel so much better knowing that you are taking pro-active steps to clean up your home environment. It is better to be empowered with knowledge, so you can make healthier and informed decisions, than to be unaware of the risks.

With each hazard, there are actions you can take to help fix the issue. You don’t have to do everything at once! A simple place to start is by choosing to commit to addressing one area of your home each month. Another way is to simply replace items with healthier and safer choices as needed – we call this the ditch and switch!

I also recommend starting with the items and products you use most. These are the things you use daily or frequently, and the chemical and toxic load adds quickly. By starting here, people often see the most benefit the fastest.

Dr. Peter McCullough is a practicing cardiologist with over 30 years of medical experience. He is a clinical scholar, frequent news contributor, AND, as a leading expert on cardiovascular medicine, Dr. McCullough has been outspoken, sounding alarm bells about the heart-related risks he believes could be attributed to mRNA technology, including myocarditis and adverse reactions in high endurance athletes.

There are many questions parents have, that are going unanswered or with answers that can feel like gaslighting. Dr. McCullough holds nothing back in this interview as we have a truly bold conversation about topics that are being aggressively censored from the internet.

Our guest today is Dr. Lucy Burns. Dr. Lucy  is a GP and a lifestyle medicine physician. And has a an online platform, program called Real life Medicine  and a podcast called The Real Health and Weight Loss podcast with her business partner Dr. Mary Barson.

Medical hypnosis can be an effective clinical tool for the relief of physical symptoms. Hypnosis is a voluntary, generally safe, and potentially effective process that involves a person and a therapist working together to bring about positive changes.

Practitioners may be able to use hypnosis to help people bring about both psychological and physiological change in three main ways:

  • using mental imagery to help a person visualize themselves accomplishing their goals
  • presenting ideas or suggestions that are compatible with what a person desires
  • unconscious exploring to identify whether past events or experiences are causing a personal problem in making positive changes
  • Individuals can also learn the technique of self-hypnosis as self-hypnosis is similar to mindfulness techniques and meditation.

Our guest today is Feather Berkower, a licensed clinical social worker with a Master’s of Social Welfare from UC Berkeley. She has been a leader in child sexual abuse prevention since 1985 and has educated nearly one-hundred fifty thousand schoolchildren, parents and youth professionals. Her well-regarded workshop, Parenting Safe Children, empowers adults to keep children safe from sexual assault. Feather co-authored Off Limits, a parenting book that will change the way you think about keeping children safe. It is available on her website at parentingsafechildren.com

Sexual abuse of children is a difficult topic to discuss, but that is why these conversations need to take place. The manipulative behaviors perpetrators use to set children up for sexual abuse are designed to be subtle and often appear innocent. As parents, nothing is more important than the health and safety of our children. What we, many parents, don’t know or realize, is that in these unsettling situations, the perpetrators are also working the parents. Abusers will often groom a family, and not just a child.

Welcome to Real Health Conversations with Leah Williamson and Holly Jean Mullen, Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioners.

This week on the Real Health Conversations Podcast Holly chats with guest Dr. Caroline of Native Sun Nutrition & Functional Medicine Center

Dr. Caroline Williams is a Chiropractic Physician and owner of Native Sun Nutrition & Functional Medicine Center in Las Vegas.  Since 2001 she has been working with patients holistically to determine the cause of dysfunction whether it be physical, mental, emotional, or chemical.

Unlike supplements, photo-biomodulation (PBM), also known as phototherapy, helps the body repair cells and tissue by using a light source of a specific wavelength. This type of therapy has excellent efficacy in wound healing and pain relief. Dr. Caroline and I specifically talk about stem cells and glutathione in terms of light therapy. We talk about, how in our increasingly toxic world, it is vital to our health to ensure our bodies are properly detoxing. Glutathione is the body’s master antioxidant and primary antioxidant for detoxification. Stem cells can help to lower inflammation, regulate the immune system, and regenerate damaged or diseased tissue in your body. By allowing tissue repair and reduced inflammation, stem cell therapy can help patients to live a healthier and better quality of life.

This week on the Real Health Conversations Podcast, Holly takes a look at the spiritual aspects of fasting. People of all walks of life are rediscovering the wisdom of fasting and feasting, the circadian rhythms of nature, and tuning in to the ancestral and spiritual aspects of primal health cycles.

This episode looks at fasting, specifically fasting from sugar and the so-called socially acceptable addictions – sugar and caffeine – and how those two crutches may be holding us back from the true health and spiritual transformations that many are seeking. Sugar, refined carbohydrates, ultra processed foods, and refined grains are at the root of inflammation and many disease pathways yet they are the hardest, most addictive foods to give up. Some call them addictions, others may see them as strongholds.

Fasting is a powerful tool to leverage a food addiction, or an over-reliance on foods for comfort, support, and sustenance. In this episode we look at the benefits of fasting for mental function, healing rejuvenation, and increased willpower. Fasting from sugar – the source of sickness for so many – is the first step in healing your body physically and spiritually.

Holly’s 6 Week Fall Sugar Fast

40 Day Sugar Fast, Fall Group Program with Holly Jean

If you have been struggling with your diet, with your weight, with your health; If sugar, or sweets, or carbs, or cocktails seem to continually derail your progress; If you have tried to give these items up without success – then you might have a sugar addiction.

Did you know, 88% of the population is metabolically unhealthy? Sugar is at the root of metabolic dysfunction and dis-ease. Join me for my 6 Week Fall Sugar Fast starting this September 19. Beyond a physical detox, this sugar fast is also a spiritual transformation.

What would you be willing to give up to experience the presence of God in your life again? Many of us sign up for a physical detox program, thinking that if our bodies are healthier, then we’re healthier. But a healthy body doesn’t do us a lot of good if we are spiritually malnourished.

My 6 week online group sugar fast follows the book 40 Day Sugar Fast by Wendy Speake. In this sugar fast you’ll learn how to stop fixating on food and other things you use to fill the voids in life and instead fix your eyes on Christ.

Anyone who runs to sugar for comfort or a reward, who eats mindlessly or out of boredom, who feels physically and spiritually lethargic, or who struggles with self-control will discover ,not only freedom from their cravings, but an entirely new appetite for the good things God has for us. Registration is only $40 and is open now. Sign up now at HollyJeanHealth.com/40daysugarfast

Welcome to Real Health Conversations with Leah Williamson and Holly Jean Mullen, Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioners.

 

This week on the Real Health Conversations Podcast, Lonestar Keto Girl, Amber Wentworth, joins us to share the not-so-sweet realities of sugar addiction. Amber is a food addiction and sugar specialist with a personal health and weight-loss story that many can relate to – trying every diet program, repeatedly gaining and losing, unable to maintain weight loss, and frustrated with the entire process. Her life changed when she discovered the keto diet and sugar addiction at the root of her struggles.

Just like any other addiction to caffeine or cocaine, sugar is pretty addictive in nature too. We have modern science to prove that sugar is indeed one of the strongest addictions known for humans, but how do we know if we are addicted or just having cravings? Amber shares her SUGAR assessment and shares her methods for quitting sugar for good.

Welcome to Real Health Conversations with Leah Williamson and Holly Jean Mullen, Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioners.

This week on the Real Health Conversations Podcast Leah and Holly take on coffee and cholesterol! Is the sophisticated sexiness of French Pressed coffee worth the alleged risk of negatively impacting cholesterol levels? This real health conversation was inspired by an article in the Huffington Post that very loosely links the two by inconclusive results from a weak study.

In this episode you’ll hear about why cholesterol is important and why we may not always have to be so concerned with lowering it. Cholesterol is necessary for healing and protection and not necessarily the bad guy it is made out to be.

Welcome to Real Health Conversations with Leah Williamson and Holly Jean Mullen, Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioners.

This week on Real Health Conversations, we take a look at the policies and regulations that govern the ingredients in our food (USA). The label “FDA Approved” is believed to be synonymous with tested and safe, but is that really the case?

Inspired by recent news headlines regarding a recent lawsuit against food company Mars, this episode looks deeper into the claims that Skittles candies were “unfit for human consumption” because of the presence of a “known toxin” called titanium dioxide.

Welcome to Real Health Conversations with Leah Williamson and Holly Jean Mullen, Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioners.

This week on the Real Health Conversations Podcast our guest is Dr. Don Clum, a chiropractor and specialist in advanced metabolic nutrition. Dr. Clum has an integrative program for insulin resistance specifically focusing on diabetes, diabetes prevention, metabolic syndrome, weight loss resistance, obesity, and cardiometabolic issues.

We welcome Dr. Clum back to dive into a recent article published in Science Magazine, which calls into question decades of science around Alzheimer’s disease. An estimated 6.5 million Americans age 65 and older are living with Alzheimer’s in 2022 and the numbers keep rising. In this episode we talk about how Alzheimer’s is also known as type 3 diabetes. What is the purpose of plaque on the brain and how do they relate to insulin? The answers may surprise you. Alzheimer’s is a scary disease, but we are not powerless against it! The best part of this episode is learning lifestyle tips for prevention.

Welcome to Real Health Conversations with Leah Williamson and Holly Jean Mullen, Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioners.

This week Leah and Holly take a deeper look into the question “Can I eat Carrots and Beetroot on Keto – are they too high in carbs/sugar?”

This, and similar questions along the lines of what can I/can’t I eat, are common when starting any new diet or exploring new eating habits. However, instead of worrying about the do’s and don’ts, perhaps a better question is not about the WHAT, but the WHY…

In this episode, Leah and Holly get started by looking at this question from a clinical perspective and chat a about nutrients – Nutrients are essential for our energy – life and growth, found in the foods we digest  and we often think about our Macronutrients – Protein, Carbs and Fats.  What we tend to not pay as much attention to is our micronutrients which are our vitamins and minerals. We (humans) can’t make vitamins and minerals and must obtain them through our food.

It’s our first episode with our new name “Real Health Conversations” and we wanted no one other than our long term friend and previous guest cohost Marty Kendall from Optimizing Nutrition.

Marty is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to nutrient dense foods and blood sugar regulation. Leah found a question in an online forum where someone was asking advise as to whether they could eat carrot and beetroot on a Keto diet. So the ladies ask Marty his thoughts and what do you think his response was? Tune in to find out this and more on Real Health Conversations.

Welcome to Low Carb Conversations with Leah Williamson and Holly Jean Mullen, Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioners.

 

This week Holly and Leah are back for a Co-Host Episode. Recently, Holly was astonished by the health advice random strangers were giving people on social media forums. It got us thinking whether Social media is an appropriate place to a) Ask such health questions and b) try the advice given from strangers. Where should one go to ask such questions if Social Media is not the place?

Welcome to Low Carb Conversations with Leah Williamson and Holly Jean Mullen, Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioners.

In this episode, Leah chats with Neuropsychiatrist and Author of the new book, The Upgrade: How the Female Brain Gets Stronger and Better in Midlife and Beyond, by Dr. Louann Brizendine.

Dr Brizendine shares newly emerging information about women in the second half of life: during midlife, women’s brains are actually reshaped and “upgraded” in a way that creates new power, a bracing clarity, and a laser-like sense of purpose. Dr. Brizendine calls this process The Upgrade and argues that, if a woman knows how to step into her power and own her Upgrade, the second half of her life can be the better half.

Listen in as Leah and Dr Brizendine chat about the Transition (the period of time leading to The Upgrade). Dr Brizendine shares her research on tips on making The Transition to the Upgrade a better experience through mindset, nutrition, exercise, sleep and more. Dr Brizendine wishes for women experiencing this transition to experience more joy and serenity in their lives.

Welcome to Low Carb Conversations with Leah Williamson and Holly Jean Mullen, Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioners.

 

In this episode, Holly Jean and Leah review their favorite moments from most recent previous episodes.

Breathing, digestion, and stress management go hand-in-hand! This week’s article is a look at how belly breathing could be the key to better digestion. Deep belly breathing can actually massage the contents of the gut helping move food through the body for better elimination. Tune in to hear more about this and tips on a non cost method that is essential to life!

When we activate the diaphragm with breath, it creates a gentle massaging action for internal organs like the intestines and stomach. In doing so, it can reduce abdominal pain, urgency, bloating, and constipation.

Diaphragmatic breathing, or deep breathing, does not take much more effort than standard breathing and is one of the best things you can do to help with digestion.

Welcome to Low Carb Conversations with Leah Williamson and Holly Jean Mullen, Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioners.

In this episode, Holly Jean and Leah chat with Katie Beecher, Internationally known Medical and Emotional Intuitive and Licensed Professional Counselor with over 30 years of experience. Katie’s mission is to help as many people as possible connect to their intuitions, find unconditional love and self acceptance.

Katie has a new book out called, Heal from Within: A Guidebook to Intuitive Wellness, and she shares how to connect to your intuition to help guide and identify your physical and emotional key health issues. Using the chakras as a framework, Katie describes how we should make friends with illness instead of seeing it as enemy = the body is always trying to communicate with us and symptoms are its language.

This episode provides practical action items and key tips for connecting and understanding your body. We wrap up with a conversation about medical gaslighting and why people are often told there is nothing wrong with them. Gaslighting further complicates and compounds the lack of body wisdom and intuition, which further disconnects people from listening to their bodies and inner voice.

In this episode, Holly Jean and Leah chat with The Ketogenic Pharmacist Brian O’Halloran. Brian is a pharmacist of 20+ years and a Certified Ketogenic Nutrition Specialist. Often times, people think of their local pharmacist as a person who just fills prescriptions. Brian busts that myth and lets us know just how important, even critical, pharmacists are in the medical industry.

Brian is a bit of rogue pharmacist and wants to see his patients less by educating people about diet and lifestyle changes that can help them ditch the prescriptions all together. In this informative and interesting chat, we talk about:

  • Precautions when starting Low Carb/Keto diet if you are on medications
  • How to deal with Keto Flu
  • Why you must talk to your doctor about dietary changes and when you might want to find a new doctor

Connect with Brian on Instagram: @theketogenicpharmacist

Welcome to Low Carb Conversations with Leah Williamson and Holly Jean Mullen, Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioners.

In this episode, Leah and Holly Jean discuss contributing factors of autoimmune disease. For decades, doctors and researchers believed that autoimmune conditions were genetic, or hereditary, and even a normal side effect of the aging process. But as conditions are rising at alarming rates and the age of diagnosis is getting younger and younger, researchers are asking questions and exploring the reasons for autoimmune onset.

We take a look at nutrition and lifestyle factors in this episode and discuss whether or not the western diet is to blame. If nutrition and diet play a role in developing autoimmune disease, is it possible to use therapeutic diets to reverse symptoms and diagnosis? We explore all this and more, in this episode!
