  • 24: How to Avoid Toxic Hidden Chemicals in Everyday Products with Amy Enos
    Apr 28 2026

    If you're ready to start living a low-tox lifestyle, book a free consultation here.


    Can you really live a non-toxic life in today’s world?


    Amy Enos is the pharmacist behind Low Tox Pharmacist. Her story starts with a question most healthcare professionals are never trained to ask: where did this cancer actually come from? The US personal care industry is barely regulated. The word "fragrance" hides thousands of undisclosed chemicals, and the average woman applies dozens of endocrine disruptors before leaving the house.


    This conversation breaks down how to read an ingredient label without a chemistry degree. Amy shares the exact terms she scans for first, why "clean" brands often aren't, and what happens when a small non-toxic company gets acquired by a corporate giant.


    She also pushes back on the all-or-nothing mindset in the low-tox space, outlining how one product swap a month adds up to twelve concrete changes over the course of a year.


    If you're new to non-toxic living and feeling overwhelmed, these suggestions offer a practical starting point.


    You’ll learn:


    [00:00] Introduction

    [00:11] The cancer diagnosis that pulled a pharmacist out of the pharmacy

    [01:15] Why environment, not genetics, is the real driver of most cancer

    [09:59] How a pharmacist learns to read labels the way you can

    [18:29] What actually happens when a clean brand gets acquired

    [23:07] The three ingredient markers that expose a fake-clean product

    [27:51] Why avoidance beats detox supplements every time

    [30:10] The 28-day breast tissue study that proves product swaps work

    [47:43] The preservatives hiding in products marketed as clean

    [53:40] The everyday product most people never think to check

    [56:25] How to start without throwing out everything in your house

  • 23: What Your Dentist Isn’t Telling You: Fluoride, Mouth Breathing & the Link With Cancer | Amber White
    Apr 21 2026

    Share this episode with someone who's struggling with mouth issues.


    Your dentist might be missing the most important signs in your mouth.


    Amber White explains how oral infections, mineral imbalances, and mouth breathing create conditions that ripple through your entire body and even make you vulnerable to cancer.


    A specific oral bacterium has been directly linked to breast cancer, colorectal tumors, and pancreatic cancer in peer-reviewed research. And it doesn't stay in your mouth; it travels.


    Most people treat bleeding gums and tartar buildup as hygiene problems. Amber breaks down why those symptoms often point to something deeper, such as mineral depletion, hormonal shifts, or hidden infections that never show up on a standard dental x-ray.


    She also gets into the real tradeoffs of root canals, why your mouthwash might be making things worse, and what a biological dentist can actually see that a conventional one can't.


    You’ll learn:


    [00:00] Introduction

    [01:53] Why oral health is often overlooked, and Amber’s shift to biological dentistry

    [08:27] The oral microbiome and how your mouth reflects full-body health

    [10:38] What your mouth reveals about disease, and why symptoms like bleeding gums matter

    [13:33] The connection between oral bacteria, infections, and cancer risk

    [17:10] Root canals explained, including risks and long-term considerations

    [20:42] The real causes of tooth decay, and how biological dentists treat infections

    [27:39] The role of minerals and hormones in oral health, healing, and sensitivity

    [39:59] Daily habits, diet, and products that may be harming your oral health

    [46:53] Fluoride, mercury fillings, and how to find a biological dentist

    [58:17] Simple daily changes to support better oral health

  • 22: 7 Foods That Increase Cancer Risk (That I Stopped Eating After My Diagnosis)
    Apr 14 2026

    Share this episode with someone who is ready to make some diet changes.


    I stopped eating these 7 foods after my diagnosis, but one of them is something most people still have in their kitchen right now.


    I want to start by grounding this in something important: no single food causes cancer. What matters more is the environment we create inside the body over time, and how our daily choices influence that internal landscape.


    This conversation centers on seven foods I personally chose to stop eating or significantly reduce, based on how they may contribute to inflammation, metabolic dysfunction, and overall stress on the body.


    The focus shifts away from perfection and toward patterns, because consistent choices tend to shape long-term health far more than any one-off decision. Small, gradual changes can influence energy, cravings, and day-to-day experience, reinforcing that meaningful change doesn’t require an overnight overhaul.


    And one of the first foods on this list, which has been strongly linked to cancer risk, is something many people still consider completely normal to eat on a regular basis.


    You’ll learn:


    [00:00] Introduction

    [01:06] Cancer doesn't appear out of nowhere; it needs the right conditions to survive

    [02:13] How one cancer survivor turned her metabolic health around with a single shift

    [04:20] The preserved meat that most people eat daily, which the WHO flagged as a carcinogen

    [06:03] High heat changes more than the flavor; it changes what meat does to your cells

    [07:19] The packaged foods, sugars, and drinks driving cancer risk

    [08:25] Why refined sugar and white flour are more than empty calories

    [09:24] The drinks most people don't realize are overwhelming their body metabolically

    [10:24] The cooking oils hiding in plain sight that may be stoking inflammation

    [11:28] Why diet and sugar-free labels may be misleading your gut and immune system

  • 21: Gut Healing: The Connection Between Digestion, Recovery, and Stress | Carley Smith
    Apr 7 2026

    Share this episode with someone who's struggling with gut issues.


    You can do everything “right” and still not see progress if your gut isn’t working.


    I’ve seen how easy it is to focus on treatments and still feel like something is missing, especially after cancer. This conversation brings gut health back to where it belongs: as the foundation that supports everything else in the body.


    I’m joined by Carley Smith, a nutritional therapist and certified GAPS practitioner who rebuilt her health after a Lyme disease diagnosis, by turning to food as medicine and focusing on gut healing. That experience now shapes the way she helps others approach the connection between the gut microbiome, immune system support, and long-term resilience.


    You’ll get a clear understanding of how approaches like the GAPS diet and simple gut healing foods can support digestion, especially if you’re dealing with bloating, fatigue, or food sensitivities. There’s also a strong emphasis on making this way of eating practical and accessible, not overwhelming.


    If you’ve been trying to move forward but still feel stuck, this gives you a place to start that actually makes sense.


    You’ll learn:


    [00:00] Introduction

    [03:11] The illness that led Carley to her gut health journey

    [11:41] What the GAPS diet is and why it starts with meat stock instead of bone broth

    [21:07] The biggest misconception about the diet most people get wrong

    [27:04] Your body's own signals for knowing when the gut has actually healed

    [37:24] Who the diet is really for, including people coming out of chemo

    [41:07] A practical day of GAPS-style eating before committing to the full protocol

    [46:49] Why most gut healing falls apart before it even starts

    [51:58] Carley's free gut reset and the meal delivery service built around it

    Why do so many people focus on treatment but overlook what made the body vulnerable in the first place?

I sit down with Dr. Stephen Cabral, a board-certified doctor of naturopathy who has spent over 25 years helping more than 300,000 people understand what’s really happening beneath the surface through at-home lab testing and personalized protocols.

This challenges the idea that normal labs mean optimal health. It also shows how hidden deficiencies and toxicities can shape long-term outcomes.


    If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything right but still not getting answers, this will help you understand where to look next and why it matters.


    You’ll Learn:


    [00:00] Introduction

    [16:55] How functional testing uncovered what a decade of conventional blood work missed

    [29:14] The nocebo effect and why conventional medicine keeps patients waiting to get sicker

    [33:37] Live hair test review: stress patterns, mineral absorption, and elevated heavy metals

    [50:51] How chronic stress depletes your minerals and which ones go first

    Mar 17 2026

    Share this episode with every woman you know - it's that important!


    What if your daily routine is your biggest source of toxin exposure?


    Many people think harmful exposures come from rare or dramatic events. Yet some of the biggest contributors to the body’s toxic burden may come from the products and environments we interact with every single day.


    In this episode, I sit down with functional nutritionist and toxic load expert Caitlin Fierro, founder of Non Toxic Homes, a wellness brand focused on helping people address both internal imbalances and environmental exposures. Her work was shaped by her own experience navigating an autoimmune condition that conventional medicine struggled to explain. That journey led her into the world of functional healthcare and a deeper investigation into how ingredients, environments, and everyday exposures influence the body.


    Our conversation opens the door to a topic many people sense but don’t fully understand. If you’ve ever wondered how your home, habits, and daily products might be affecting your health, this episode will give you a new way to think about what’s happening around you every day.


    You’ll Learn:


    [00:00] Introduction

    [02:50] How an autoimmune diagnosis and gluten in skincare led Caitlin to non-toxic living

    [20:57] Why a healthy lifestyle can't cancel constant exposure

    [24:50] Daily detox practices that actually work

    [35:55] The top three hidden home toxin sources

    Mar 10 2026

    Share this with someone who’s rebuilding their health after cancer.


    Chronic constipation can be a signal that something deeper is going on.


    In this conversation, I sit down with Liz Roman, a Board Certified Functional Nutritional Practitioner and Master Restorative Wellness Practitioner, to unpack why gut health after cancer treatment is foundational to true healing. As the founder and co-owner of FITMOM and co-host of a Top 100 alternative health podcast, Liz has dedicated her work to uncovering the root causes behind digestive disorders, hormonal imbalances, autoimmune challenges, and metabolic issues.


    We walk through how chronic constipation can signal deeper dysfunction, why digestion should be a silent event, and how backed-up detox pathways affect everything from brain fog to weight retention. Liz shares her personal journey with Hashimoto’s, yeast overgrowth, mold toxicity, and years of feeling dismissed before finding answers through functional medicine for gut health.


    If you are navigating cancer recovery and prevention, hormonal shifts, or autoimmune symptoms, this conversation offers a clearer understanding of how digestive health connects to the rest of the body and where to begin rebuilding. Grab a pen. You’ll want to take notes.
