    Ep 62 | Why Are We Scared of The Sun? In Defense of Sunlight & Naked Cartwheels in The Sun | Nuanced Advice on Sun Exposure & Sun Protection

    Julie and Karinda are back from the NHAA Herbal Medicine Summit to tackle one of the most controversial, misunderstood topics in functional health: sunlight. Inspired by the hot-off-the-press book, In Defense of Sunlight by Rowan Jacobsen, they look past the rigid “slip, slop, slap” messaging to explore why sun avoidance might actually be driving our chronic disease epidemic. From the evolutionary biology of pale skin and blue eyes, to how your skin microbiome builds UV-resistant, cancer-fighting bacteria when exposed to natural light, this episode is a masterclass in circadian nuance. Ready to take this deeper and build your own strategic light routine? Join us for our upcoming live masterclass, Returning to Our Natural Rhythm: How to Use Sunlight and Darkness for Whole Body Health and Healing, on Thursday, July 2nd at 6:30 PM AEST. We’ll show you how to assess your skin type, build a solar callus, and optimise your circadian biology from sunrise to bedtime. 👉 Click here to claim your spot live or get the replay! ~ MENTIONED IN THIS EP: Book: In Defense of Sunlight: The Surprising Science of Sun Exposure by Rowan Jacobson (2026)Nature Book ReviewStudy: Cell (2021) Study: Nature (2023) — Skin microbiome of lifeguardsDr. Richard WellerThe Nuanced Naturopaths Episode: Making Vitamin D vs. Taking Vitamin D The Nuanced Naturopaths with Rebecca Edwards on Vaginal & Oral Microbiome, and on Probiotic Myth Busting~ TIMESTAMPS 00:00 NHAA Summit Debrief & Overcoming Imposter Syndrome 07:00 How to Get Speaking Opportunities as a New Grad (The Power of Saying Yes) 13:36 Nature Book Review: “Naked Cartwheels in the Sun” & Rowan Jacobson’s Book 19:17 Growing Up in the '70s vs. Modern Sun Phobia 23:34 The Truth About Melanoma: Why It Occurs in Areas Never Exposed to Light 27:00 Why Vitamin D Supplements Can't Replace the 50+ Metabolites Produced by UVB 31:52 The Swedish Study: How Sun Exposure Reduces All-Cause Mortality 33:24 Evolutionary Biology: Pale Skin, Blue Eyes, and Southern Hemisphere Sun 38:55 Urocanic Acid & The Eye-Skin Mismatch (Why Sunglasses Block Skin Protection) 47:53 The Skin Microbiome: How Lifeguards Develop UV-Resistant, Cancer-Fighting Bacteria 53:45 The Skin-Brain-Gonad Axis: Sunlight on Genitals & Sex Hormones (The 2021 Cell Study) 58:16 Masterclass Invite: “Returning to Our Natural Rhythm” (July 2nd) 59:36 The Mind-Blowing Cardiovascular Stat: Sun Abstinence vs. Heart Disease 01:01:55 Why Your Doctor Still Prescribes “Slip, Slop, Slap” (Clinical Guidelines Lag) 01:05:37 Taking Your Medical Power Back & Self-Led Education ~ Reach out to the Nuanced Naturopaths⁠⁠⁠ ⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠!

    Ep 61 | All About Creatine | Naturopaths Bust Myths & Talk Facts About Creatine Supplementation | Creatine Benefits, Research and Nuance for Women, Aging, and Genetics

    A very nuanced deep dive into creatine, starting off with some technical difficulties and audio glitches! Thanks for bearing with us! In this episode of The Nuanced Naturopaths, we unpack creatine supplementation amid its growing popularity; we don’t commonly rely on it, but are frequently asked about it. We explain what creatine is, how it supports ATP energy production, and why it has been viewed as a “gym bro” supplement, then review evidence for benefits including improved strength, power, lean mass, some anaerobic performance measures, and potential cognitive effects like reduced mental fatigue and improved memory, especially in people with low baseline creatine. There's nuances for vegetarians/vegans, older adults, and midlife women, including lower creatine stores in women and estrogen’s role in creatine production. We address myths about sufficiency from diet, genetic/methylation considerations (homocysteine, MTHFR, B vitamins), and safety concerns such as kidney risk with high-dose protocols, emphasizing individualized assessment and evidence-based dosing.

    Ep 60 I All About Functional Testing I Hormone, Stool, Genomic & Hair Testing for Complex Health Issues | Functional Testing in Naturopathy: When It Helps, When It’s Optional, and Why Context Matters

    Today we discuss the benefits and limits of functional testing, emphasizing patient-centred, tailored decisions rather than blanket protocols, especially given cost and the value of thorough history, case taking, and clinical exams. We explain that tests are snapshots in time, results can be delayed, and fundamentals like sleep, circadian rhythm, hydration, nutrition, and nervous system regulation can be addressed while waiting, noting some supplements and diet changes can skew results. We share examples where genomic testing clarified B-vitamin needs, and where hair mineral analysis plus gut and organic acids testing revealed toxic copper driving mineral transport issues. We contrast comprehensive testing with GP panels, detailing the DUTCH test’s broader hormone, metabolite, toxin, cortisol, and melatonin insights and the importance of timing hormone testing seven days post-ovulation. They also outline advanced stool testing methods and markers, discuss celiac-related findings, and frame genetic risk as modifiable by environment.

    Ep 59 I Testing 101 I The Pros & Cons of Blood Tests, Bone Scans & More | Getting Accurate Blood Tests | How Naturopaths Look at Blood Tests Differently

    Julie and Karinda explain how many GPs primarily flag only results outside reference ranges to identify frank disease states, while they also use functional/optimal ranges and compare multiple markers over time using historical results to spot trends and support prevention. They outline practical factors that can skew blood tests—fasting too long (aim ~10 hours; avoid >12), exercising (even up to 48 hours prior), stress, illness/recovery, dehydration, and timing/queues — encouraging consistency across tests, including seasonality. They discuss Australia’s Medicare limits influencing GP test ordering and note naturopaths can arrange private tests. Other GP-aligned testing covered includes coronary artery calcium scoring for cardiovascular risk and DEXA/bone testing (including an ultrasound option with fragility scoring), plus concerns about medication side effects and interactions.

    Ep 58 | The Nuance of Menopause & Menopausal Hormone Therapy, Hormone Replacement Therapy (MHT, HRT, MHRT)

    In this episode, we delve into the complex and often misunderstood topic of menopause and hormone replacement therapy (HRT). We explore the nuances of menopause and perimenopause, the evolving conversations around it, and the physical and emotional challenges women face during this natural transition. We discuss the controversial history of HRT, including the flawed Women's Health Initiative and Million Women Study that led to a drastic reduction in HRT prescriptions. We also touch on the recent removal of the black box warning on HRT products in the US and what this means for women considering these therapies. The importance of distinguishing between synthetic progestins and bioidentical hormones is emphasized, alongside the need for personalized, holistic approaches to manage menopausal symptoms. We invite you to contemplate the potential gifts of menopause and advocate for a balance between natural health practices and medical interventions. Join us for an in-depth, nuanced conversation that aims to empower women navigating this significant life stage.
