    210 - You’re Not Broken, Just Treating the Wrong Thing

    In this episode, I’m joined again by Dr. Jared Price, a functional medicine doctor who helps patients find the root cause of their health issues. We talk about his “four-door system,” a framework he uses to simplify healing and help people understand where their body is truly struggling instead of chasing the wrong problem. We start with the nervous system and vagal nerve regulation, and how chronic stress can keep the body stuck in fight-or-flight. Dr. Price shares simple tools like humming, breathing techniques, and understanding cortisol to support adrenal health. Next, we discuss gut health, methylation, and how B vitamins and protein play a role in energy, brain health, and hormone balance. Dr. Price also explains how stress and poor gut health can contribute to estrogen dominance. We then move into drainage and detox pathways, including the lymphatic system, kidneys, and bowel health. He explains why you should never detox unless your body can properly drain, and shares ways to support lymphatic flow through movement, magnesium, and sleep. This episode is full of simple, practical ways to understand what your body truly needs so you can start healing with clarity and confidence. Bio: Dr. Jared Price, DNP, is a Family Nurse Practitioner and owner of Ultimate Health and Wellness in Lehi, Utah. He specializes in integrative, whole-person care, treating everything from hormonal imbalances and gut issues to urologic conditions and chronic disease. Dr. Price is passionate about helping patients achieve their optimal health through individualized plans and root-cause healing.

    209 - What Your Feet Know About Your Health

    In today’s episode of the Just Ingredients Podcast, I’m joined by Heidi McKay, a certified foot zoner, to talk all about foot zoning—what it is, how it works, and why it’s helped so many people heal physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Heidi explains how the feet act as a map of the body, with specific zones corresponding to different organs and systems. We talk about the ancient roots of foot zoning, why it’s often misunderstood in Western medicine, and how this gentle modality has been used across cultures for thousands of years to help the body reset and restore balance. We also dive into powerful stories of healing—how foot zoning has supported people through chronic health issues, emotional blocks, grief, and even helped Heidi’s own family through some very difficult seasons. If you’ve ever been curious about foot zoning—or felt skeptical about it—I think you’ll really appreciate this thoughtful and eye-opening conversation. What we cover in this episode: How foot zoning works and why the feet reflect the entire body The science and anatomy behind foot zoning points Emotional and spiritual healing through releasing stored stress and trauma Why foot zoning can feel intense—and why that can actually be a good thing Real-life stories of transformation and healing Simple ways to try foot zoning at home, including a free app Heidi recommends Guest Bio Heidi McKay is a certified foot zoner and the founder of The Foot Zoning Method, a foot zoning certification program focused on resetting the body through the reflex points of the feet. She also created a foot zoning app to help people practice this healing modality at home. Heidi discovered foot zoning nearly a decade ago at the suggestion of a close friend while her daughter was struggling with anxiety and depression. After years of hesitation and trying many different approaches, foot zoning became a life-changing—and life-saving—tool for her daughter. Since then, Heidi has been on a mission to teach how this gentle healing modality can bring peace and alignment to the body, mind, and spirit.

    208 - Why “Natural Flavors” Aren’t What You Think and the Return to Real Food

    In this episode, I’m joined by Ruston, food scientist at Just Ingredients, and our Director of Product Development, Lindsay, to unpack one of the most confusing and misleading parts of modern food labels: natural flavors. We break down what “natural flavors” really mean, why they’re so widely used, and how much can legally hide behind that single term. Ruston explains how these flavors are often made up of many components and why they’re designed for consistency, shelf life, and cost rather than true nutrition. We also share why Just Ingredients chooses to use real food instead, even when it makes formulation far more challenging. From failed batches and clogged machines to last-minute reformulations before launch, this conversation offers a behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to avoid shortcuts. We talk about why flavors like strawberry are especially difficult to work with, the bone broth protein journey, and why real food will never taste exactly the same batch to batch. Finally, we discuss why real ingredients matter, from preserving nutrients like polyphenols, fiber, and antioxidants to changing our relationship with food. This episode is an honest look at how food is made today, why most companies don’t do it this way, and why we believe the harder path is always worth it. Guest Bio Ruston is a chemist by education and a food scientist by profession. He has worked in multiple food and supplement co-manufacturing facilities as an R&D scientist and has extensive experience in formulation, ingredient validation, supplement facts panel verification, and batch corrections for major brands in the industry. He is deeply familiar with the ways companies use deceptive marketing, hide ingredients, and cut corners. Ruston has also studied analytical testing methods used to validate label claims and ensure product integrity. At Just Ingredients, Ruston serves as the Quality and Compliance Manager. He oversees and audits our co-manufacturers, protects product quality, and creates scientific substantiation files to ensure our supplement claims are accurate, compliant, and backed by strong research.

    207 - Why You Can’t Lose Fat When Insulin Is High (And How to Fix It)

    In this episode, I’m welcoming back Dr. Ben Bikman, a leading expert in metabolic health, to break down insulin, glucose, and what’s really driving insulin resistance and so many chronic health issues today. We dive into the growing popularity of continuous glucose monitors and why glucose spikes are often just a signal, not the root problem. Dr. Bikman explains insulin’s role in a way that finally makes sense—describing insulin as the “hero” that helps move glucose into our cells. We unpack how insulin resistance develops, why insulin levels can stay chronically high, and how this state is linked to weight gain, inflammation, and long-term metabolic dysfunction. We also discuss common contributors to insulin resistance, including stress, inflammation, poor sleep, and modern eating patterns. Dr. Bikman explains why focusing solely on calories often misses the bigger picture and why improving insulin sensitivity is key for sustainable metabolic health. We talk through carbohydrates, mixing macros, and how different foods impact insulin differently. One of my favorite parts of this conversation is our discussion around fasting—especially how it can affect women differently than men. Dr. Bikman shares practical guidance for women on how to approach fasting in a way that supports hormones, including how different phases of the menstrual cycle may call for different strategies. His biggest reminder: listen to your body instead of following rigid rules. This episode is packed with eye-opening insights and practical takeaways for anyone who wants a clearer understanding of insulin, glucose, and how to support long-term wellness. Guest Bio Dr. Benjamin Bikman earned his Ph.D. in Bioenergetics and completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the Duke–National University of Singapore, focusing on metabolic disorders. He is currently a scientist and professor at Brigham Young University, where his research centers on the role of elevated insulin and nutrient metabolism in obesity, diabetes, and dementia. Dr. Bikman is also the author of Why We Get Sick and How Not to Get Sick.
