    241: The Hormone Dysfunction Epidemic: What GLP-1 Drugs Reveal About Metabolic Health Part 1

    What if the explosion of GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy is not a weight loss revolution, but rather a warning sign that something in our metabolic health is fundamentally broken? Today, we take a deep dive into the lesser-known satiety hormones, such as CCK and PYY, exploring how dysfunction in these hormones could be silently accelerating your aging and sabotaging your health span. I’m excited to welcome Ashley Koff, a registered dietitian with more than 25 years of experience in functional and integrative nutrition, for a two-part series. In Part 1 today, we break down why your satiety hormones may be underperforming, how this links to aging and longevity, and simple strategies you can start using today to support metabolic health naturally. How to support your weight-health hormones: Focus on supporting your digestion first, rather than jumping straight into weight loss or metabolic fixes Ensure you’re consuming enough protein and amino acids to support peptide hormone production Reduce gut irritants like alcohol, ultra-processed ingredients, and unnecessary fasting Nourish your body consistently, especially during times of hormonal change, instead of restricting View digestive symptoms as signs of dysfunction instead of problems to push through or ignore Bio: Ashley Koff Ashley Koff is a registered dietician and who is the founder of the Better Nutrition Program (BNP), the nutrition course director for UC Irvine’s Susan Samueli Integrative Health Institute’s Integrative and Functional Medicine Fellowship, and a faculty member at the Integrative and Functional Nutrition Academy (IFNA), where she teaches “An Integrative and Functional Nutrition Approach to Obesity and Weight Management.”  She is also the author of the upcoming book Your Best Shot (HarperOne, Jan. 6, 2026). A practitioner for more than 25 years, Koff is leading a transformative movement in personalized nutrition, turning “better, not perfect” choices into practical, sustainable strategies that deliver real health outcomes. Through patient stories and personal experience, she shows that optimal health is not just possible — it’s essential to living your fullest life. Koff has been recognized as one of CNN’s Top 100 Health Makers, featured in InStyle as “Hollywood’s Leading Dietitian,” and selected as Westin’s global nutrition ambassador.  In this episode: How separating weight from health leads to unhealthy behavior and long-term metabolic dysfunction Why a balanced approach is essential when using GLP-1 agonists and other interventions The importance of viewing digestive distress as an early warning sign, not a side effect to ignore How short-term diet “wins” can feel hopeful, yet fail to solve the underlying issue How metabolic health data points to a larger issue than most people realize The role weight-regulating hormones play beyond hunger and blood sugar Why supporting your weight health is foundational to your longevity  Links and Resources: Guest Social Media Links: Ashley Koff on Instagram  The Better Nutrition Program  Your Best Shot Relative Links for This Show:  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Use Code FIBER to get 10% off GLP-1 Fiber ⁠⁠⁠⁠Use code CREATINE to get 10% off Creatine Follow Your Longevity Blueprint  On Instagram| Facebook| Twitter| YouTube | LinkedIn Get your copy of the Your Longevity Blueprint book and claim your bonuses here Find Dr. Stephanie Gray and Your Longevity Blueprint online   Follow Dr. Stephanie Gray  On Facebook| Instagram| Youtube | Twitter | LinkedIn Integrative Health and Hormone Clinic Podcast production by Team Podcast

    240: Root Causes Over Prescriptions: A Functional Medicine Approach to Women's Health Part 2

    I am delighted to have Dr. Austin Lake with me for a two-part series. In Part 1, we discussed women’s health, exploring the importance of informed consent around birth control and of finding the root cause of why it was prescribed for you. Today, in Part 2, we cover many topics, including microplastics, praying before meals, deep breathing, supplements, faith, and nicotine. If you have not done so already, please listen to Part 1 first. Ways to regulate your nervous system: Shift into slow, diaphragmatic breathing when your body feels tense or overstimulated Make mealtimes a seated, unhurried ritual instead of something done on the move Reinforce your nervous system balance with proper hydration, minerals, and sufficient magnesium Build small moments of gratitude and prayer into your daily routine Bio: Dr. Austin Lake Dr. Austin Lake is a functional medicine provider, health educator, and founder of Wholly Health, a transformative health program that helps individuals restore energy, balance hormones, and reclaim health using holistic, evidence-based strategies.  He holds a doctorate in physiotherapy, a bachelor’s degree in exercise physiology, and board certification in functional medicine.  He has guided thousands of clients through challenges like chronic fatigue, weight struggles, autoimmune disorders, thyroid imbalances, and metabolic dysfunction—addressing the true root causes rather than masking symptoms with pharmaceuticals or medical procedures.  His passion for holistic health was born out of personal experience: watching his brother battle leukemia, his father suffer multiple heart attacks, and his mother live with autoimmune disease. These trials forged a mission to uncover why people get sick—and how to truly heal.  Grounded in biblical principles, Dr. Lake’s approach integrates faith, science, and natural healing. He empowers individuals to break free from the cycle of prescription dependency and to steward their health with intention. With a following of about 1.5 million across social media platforms, his work reaches a global audience with practical insights, myth-busting education, and faith-driven encouragement.  When not working with clients or educating online, Dr. Lake enjoys time with his wife, Carlie, and their four children, where they live a simple, natural life centered around faith, family, and wellness. He is also a passionate advocate for homeschooling and equipping the next generation for healthy, purpose-filled lives. His mission is simple: to help people reclaim their health, their vitality, and their God-given potential—one life at a time. In this episode: The importance of filtering your water at home Tips for regulating the nervous system Why women on birth control must follow a healthy diet, take quality supplements, and be intentional with their daily routines and rhythms Some advice for women trying to conceive Why antioxidants are essential for women who want to conceive What are the benefits of nicotine?

    237: Unstuck: Breaking Down Adhesions for Fertility & Pain Relief with Larry & Belinda Wurn

    Today, I am delighted to be joined by the pioneers who changed everything for me. They are Larry and Belinda Wurn, the creators of Clear Passage therapy. We are diving into a topic today that was pivotal in my own fertility journey. We’re talking about adhesions, the invisible internal bonds that form after surgery, infection, or trauma, quietly disrupting your body in ways most people never suspect. They can block fallopian tubes, trigger chronic pain, cause bowel obstructions, and prevent conception, yet most women are unaware of them. After being left with a frozen pelvis and debilitating pain following surgery and radiation, doctors told Belinda she would live with pain forever. Larry and Belinda refused to accept that, and over the next 40 years, they developed a therapy that has helped about 2,000 women reverse infertility, avoid major surgeries, and reclaim their lives without drugs or surgery. Their work was game-changing for me, and I know it can help many of you, too.  Stay tuned to learn what adhesions are, how they affect fertility and overall health, and how this remarkable therapy works. Techniques to Reduce Adhesion-Related Tightness Gentle abdominal massage using light fingertip pressure over the abdomen Diaphragmatic breathing to relax the abdominal wall and support tissue glide Pelvic and hip mobility movements (slow tilts, circles, and side bends) Walking or other low-impact movement to maintain circulation and flexibility Soft myofascial stretching with long, gentle holds Light heat therapy to relax superficial tension and improve comfort Bio: Larry & Belinda Wurn Larry and Belinda Wurn are physical therapists who have spent over 40 years developing Clear Passage®️ therapy, a non surgical, drug free, hands on approach designed to reduce adhesions and restore function. Their work began after Belinda developed a frozen pelvis following surgery and radiation in 1984. When doctors warned further surgery would worsen her condition, the couple pursued extensive training and began creating manual techniques to decrease adhesions naturally. Clear Passage®️ therapy has been supported by peer reviewed research and shown to reverse infertility, reduce chronic pain, improve sexual function, and clear bowel obstructions. The Wurns train therapists internationally, with clinics serving patients across the USA and UK. In this episode: What adhesions are, and why most women never even know they have them How adhesions impact women’s health and fertility Why conventional scans cannot detect adhesions How trained practitioners detect the presence of adhesions The benefits of Clear Passage Therapy over conventional treatment  The best way to schedule your Clear Passage therapy sessions for the most effective results  How to maintain the results after Clear Passage therapy Links and Resources: ⁠⁠Use code CREATINE to get 10% off Creatine Calocurb Clinical — Appetite & Craving SupportA practitioner-exclusive, plant-based supplement designed to enhance your body’s natural fullness signals (GLP-1 and PYY), helping reduce cravings and calorie intake.

    234: Why Cardiovascular Health is Women's #1 Longevity Lever & And How to Protect It - Part 2

    I have Andie Crosby with me again for the second part of a two-part series on why cardiovascular health is the number one longevity lever for women.  Today, in Part 2, we explore how a healthy endothelial glycocalyx matrix helps your body produce more nitric oxide, which supports energy, sexual vitality, and even skin radiance. We also explain what could damage your ability to produce nitric oxide naturally. If you have not yet done so, please listen to Part 1 first, to learn about the endothelial glycocalyx matrix before listening to Part 2. How to Support Nitric Oxide Production Maintain a healthy glycocalyx through diet, exercise, and lifestyle Test your nitric oxide levels to know if you are deficient Supplement strategically if your levels are low  Exercise regularly to increase nitric oxide during activity and improve recovery afterward Bio: Andie Crosby Andie Crosby is a seasoned business leader and passionate advocate for health and longevity.  After decades leading marketing and brand development for companies like Nike, Apple, and Procter & Gamble, her focus shifted in her 40s when she experienced firsthand the impact of hormonal changes, inflammation, and the power of nutrition to transform health.  A simple elimination diet revealed how profoundly food and lifestyle impacted her well-being, sparking a deep curiosity about health and healing.  This led her to The Institute for Functional Medicine, where she became the first Chief Marketing Officer.  Over ten years, Andie built IFM’s marketing and partnerships teams, driving a 13-fold increase in practitioner education and advancing personalized, systems-based care.  Today, as President of Calroy Health Sciences, Andie leads innovation in cardiovascular and joint health.  Her mission is to raise awareness of the vascular system’s foundational role - not only in disease prevention but also in longevity, brain health, and performance. She believes we have the tools to change the trajectory of our healthspan and empowers people to take control by asking the right questions.  Andie brings a relatable, purpose-driven perspective on living longer, better, and embracing midlife as a powerful opportunity for health transformation.  In this episode: What is nitric oxide? Why the glycocalyx is critical for nitric oxide production and blood vessel function How nitric oxide affects blood pressure, circulation, sexual health, and recovery after exercise  How aging and lifestyle choices reduce natural nitric oxide  How to monitor your nitric oxide level  The benefits of targeted supplementation  Why proactive cardiovascular care is crucial Links and Resources: Use CODE BERGAMOT to get 10% off ⁠⁠⁠Citrus Bergamot⁠ Use CODE BERBERINE to get 10% off ⁠⁠Berberine⁠ Guest Social Media Links: Calroy Health Sciences on Instagram Calroy Health Sciences on Facebook Relative Links for This Show: ⁠Use this link for 10% off⁠ (And a Free Bag of Oral Microbiome Gum) Follow Your Longevity Blueprint  On Instagram| Facebook| Twitter| YouTube | LinkedIn Get your copy of the Your Longevity Blueprint book and claim your bonuses here Find Dr. Stephanie Gray and Your Longevity Blueprint online   Follow Dr. Stephanie Gray  On Facebook| Instagram| Youtube | Twitter | LinkedIn Integrative Health and Hormone Clinic Podcast production by Team Podcast
