Ashley Koff is a registered dietitian and author who spent 20 years discovering that weight and health aren't separate issues, they're connected through "weight health hormones." After her own struggles with restrictive eating despite doing everything "right," a functional medicine doctor helped her understand what was actually broken, and that was, her body's natural hormone function.

In this episode, Ashley explains why GLP-1 medications like Ozempic work, who actually needs them, and the critical foundational work required to avoid devastating rebounds. She reveals why current dietary guidelines fail women, shares her free weight health hormone assessment, cuts through the seed oil controversy, and offers practical strategies for eating healthy on any budget.

If you're confused about nutrition, frustrated that eating healthy isn't working, or curious about GLP-1 medications, this conversation provides the clarity you've been missing.

In this video, Dr. Will Bulsiewicz shares his transformation from an overweight, depressed gastroenterologist to a gut health expert after meeting his now-wife changed his entire approach to food. He reveals why 95% of Americans are fiber deficient and how this single nutrient could be the key to longevity. Dr. B breaks down the science of the gut microbiome, explains why hyperpalatable foods force us to overeat 500 extra calories per day, and shares actionable strategies for rebuilding your gut health in as little as 3-5 days.

For years, functional medicine has focused on lab results and supplement protocols. Dr. Deanna Minich knows there's a deeper layer most practitioners miss. As a nutrition scientist who worked under Dr. Jeffrey Bland and educated for the Institute for Functional Medicine, she's witnessed how artificial light at night disrupts women's hormones more than almost any other factor, yet it's completely ignored.
In this episode, Dr. Minich reveals why 85% of people are Omega-3 deficient despite supplementing, how eating a rainbow of 30+ plant species weekly rebuilds your microbiome diversity, and why your skin's "photo-metabolome" produces healing compounds from sunlight that Vitamin D pills can never provide. She explains the Goldilocks principle of sun exposure, why most women only get 11-15 grams of fiber daily when they need triple that, and how stress functions as a toxin that triggers leaky gut and impairs detoxification. Dr. Minich also shares why women's heightened sensitivity isn't a weakness but a powerful gift for intuition and healing.
If you're tired of functional medicine that stops at labs and supplements, this conversation offers a comprehensive framework integrating circadian optimization, creative expression, gut diversity, and the spiritual aspects of women's health that determine true longevity.Guest’s socials + website

In this episode, Kayla sits down with Dr. Karan Rajan, who is one of the most followed medical professionals on social media, and he breaks down the gut microbiome like you've never heard before. If you've ever felt bloated after eating fiber, tried keto and felt amazing temporarily, or wondered why your "clean" diet isn't delivering results, this episode is for you.
They talk about why fiber is non-negotiable fuel for your gut bacteria, how to gradually increase intake from 10g to 50g+ daily, and the specific prebiotic fibers that matter most. Dr. Rajan shares his daily eating protocol, explains why prebiotics trump probiotics, and reveals the critical differences between male and female microbiomes. You'll also learn his exact protocols for recovering from antibiotics, healing leaky gut and why fasting activates your gut's self-cleaning system.
