Welcome to another empowering episode where Lacy, The Functional Medicine Woman, guides us through the intricate journey of achieving optimal health through the strategic use of nutraceuticals and a holistic approach to health. This episode is a deep dive into the foundational steps for transforming your health, focusing on energy, drainage pathways, gut and immune support, systemic detox, and hormone health. Whether you're in good health and looking for preventive measures or navigating complex health issues, this episode offers valuable insights and actionable advice.
Key Highlights:
-
Energy and Drainage Pathways:
- Importance of ATP for energy and ensuring drainage pathways are clear before any detoxification process.
- Clearing drainage pathways prevents complications during detox, ensuring a smoother process for the body.
-
Gut and Immune Support:
- Building up the immune system is crucial before breaking it down to rebuild it stronger.
- Focus on gut health as a precursor to whole-body immune support, including cellular health beyond the gut microbiome.
-
Systemic Detox Process:
- A carefully planned detox is essential after preparing the body's drainage pathways and immune system.
- The aim is to avoid overwhelming the body, focusing on gentle detoxification that supports energy and reduces fatigue.
-
Deeper Immune Support and Hormone Health:
- Post-detox, the focus shifts to enhancing immune support and balancing hormones, including thyroid, adrenal, pituitary, and sex hormones.
- Special attention to brain health and overall hormonal balance to ensure holistic wellness.
-
Base Supplements and Foundational Protocol:
- Recommendations for base supplements for those in good health: B vitamins with folate, vitamin C, D3 with K2 and calcium, omega-3 (and omega-6 in the right ratio), and CoQ10.
- Foundational protocol for addressing specific issues: boosting ATP, multi-mineral, kidney and liver support, and a gentle toxin binder.
