    Ep 628 - Mold, Mycotoxins & Your Home: How to Find Hidden Problems and Remediate Them with Jason Richards

    Could your home be making you sick? In this episode of the Health Fix Podcast, Dr. Jannine Krause sits down with Jason Richards, founder and owner of Pure Health Mold Inspections, to talk about one of the most frustrating and overlooked contributors to chronic health issues: mold exposure in the home. Dr. Jannine knows this topic personally. After dealing with mold issues in two different homes and helping clients navigate suspected mold exposure, she understands how difficult it can be to get clear answers. Many people experience symptoms that seem impossible to explain, only to be told that their home is fine after standard air testing comes back negative. But according to Jason, air testing alone may not tell the whole story. Together, Dr. Jannine and Jason dive into what comprehensive mold testing should look like, why surface testing can be so important, how mold and mycotoxins can remain in the home even after visible mold is gone, and why simply killing mold isn't enough. They also discuss the structural and environmental issues that can contribute to recurring mold problems, including humidity, poor ventilation, crawl spaces, attics, HVAC systems, water drainage, and tightly sealed homes. If you've been dealing with unexplained symptoms, suspect your home may have a mold problem, or have been told your testing is negative despite ongoing concerns, this episode will help you better understand what to look for and what questions to ask. In This Episode, You'll Learn: The mold testing challenges and how ERMI and PCR-based testing can help identify mold species Why standard air testing isn't enough & what a comprehensive mold inspection looks like What mycotoxins are and why removing mold is different from simply killing it Why small mold fragments and contamination can remain after remediation The structural issues and ventilation that commonly contribute to mold growth How humidity, crawl spaces, attics, plumbing leaks, and HVAC systems can become problem areas What an ERV system is and how it can improve indoor air exchange Connect with Jason Richards Jason Richards is the founder and owner of Pure Health Mold Inspections. His work focuses on helping people identify potential mold and environmental issues in their homes through comprehensive inspection and testing strategies. Jason has worked closely with functional medicine practitioners and understands the connection between environmental exposure and the health concerns many patients experience. His approach focuses on evaluating the home as a complete system and helping clients better understand potential sources of moisture, mold, and environmental contamination. https://www.purehealthmold.com/ Connect with Dr. Jannine Krause Check out Dr. Krause's Website for more resources and subscribe for more conversations on functional medicine, longevity, brain health, hormones, nutrition, and natural strategies to optimize your health.

    Ep 626: Zeolite Coach, Jeff Hoyt talks all about Zeolite, Detox & the Dosing Paradox

    What if the key to a more effective detox isn't taking less—but taking the right amount? In this episode of the Health Fix Podcast, Dr. Jannine Krause sits down with Jeff Hoyt, founder of Zeolite Labs, to take a deep dive into zeolite, detoxification, binders, and why the way you dose a binder may dramatically affect how you feel. Jeff explains how natural clinoptilolite zeolite works as a selective "smart binder," the differences between powdered, liquid, nano, and synthetic zeolite, and why quality and particle size matter. He also shares his controversial "dosing paradox"—the idea that, for some people, microdosing zeolite may actually trigger more detox reactions than a higher dose. They also explore detox reactions, nervous system sensitivity, gut health, EMFs, heavy metals, testing, and how supporting the body's overall health may be more important than aggressively targeting a single toxin. In This Episode, You'll Learn: What zeolite is and how it supports detoxification The "swap and drop" mechanism and why zeolite is considered a selective binder Natural vs. liquid, nano, and synthetic zeolite Why purity, particle size, and quality matter The surprising "dosing paradox" and why more may sometimes be better than microdosing Detox reactions, nervous system sensitivity, and how to minimize them Zeolite's potential role in gut health, heavy metals, and EMF sensitivity How to approach testing and support your body's natural detox pathways Key Takeaway Detoxification isn't necessarily about pushing harder or tolerating more symptoms. As Jeff explains, the goal is to support the body's ability to move unwanted compounds out without overwhelming the system in the process. If you're curious about zeolite or have struggled with detox reactions in the past, this conversation offers a deeper look at how binders work—and why the dose, quality, and form of the product matter. Note: This episode discusses information and experiences shared by the guest and is intended for educational purposes. Detox protocols and supplements should be considered in the context of your individual health needs and, when appropriate, with guidance from a qualified healthcare professional. Connect with Jeff Hoyt Jeff Hoyt is a wellness educator and the founder and President of Zeolite Labs LLC . Transitioning from a background running alternative wellness clinics, he now focuses on mineral-based detoxification and is the creator of the dietary supplement ZeoCharge™. As host of The Detox Experience Podcast, Hoyt is best known for pioneering his "Higher Dose Theory," which advocates for unconventional zeolite dosing protocols to help people target heavy metals, mold, and environmental toxicants. https://www.thezeolitecoach.com/ Instagram: @ZeoliteLabs Connect with Dr. Jannine Krause Check out Dr. Krause's Website for more resources and subscribe for more conversations on functional medicine, longevity, brain health, hormones, nutrition, and natural strategies to optimize your health.

She also explains why she believes herbs work best as synergistic combinations, why supporting the immune system and detox pathways matters, and why becoming your own health advocate can be one of the most important steps in a healing journey. We also dive into the controversy and questions surrounding parasite testing, water quality, mold, environmental toxins and the symptoms that can overlap with other chronic health conditions. What You'll Learn In This Episode: Kim Rogers' journey from Western medicine to herbal medicine What led Kim to investigate parasites and environmental toxins Her experience with water contamination concerns in Washington State Why parasite symptoms can overlap with many other chronic health issues The importance and limitations of parasite testing How mold, toxins and other environmental exposures may complicate chronic symptoms The potential role of mushrooms and immune support Why supporting the nervous system is important during a healing journey How to approach detoxification gently rather than overwhelming the body Resources From The Show: Meet Kim Rogers — The "Worm Queen" Kim Rogers is a wellness professional with more than 20 years of experience in Western medicine.

    Ep 624: Naturopathic Medicine, Acupuncture & Whole-Person Healing with Dr. Kerry Niebrzydowski & Dr. Sara Norris

    What happens when you stop treating the diagnosis and start treating the person? In this special back-to-back episode of the Health Fix Podcast, Dr. Jannine Krause sits down with two fellow naturopathic doctors to explore the power of personalized, integrative medicine. First, Dr. Jannine talks with Dr. Kerry Niebrzydowski, a naturopathic doctor and licensed acupuncturist, about the unique ways naturopathic medicine and Chinese medicine can work together to support the body. Then, in the second half of the episode, Dr. Jannine sits down with Dr. Sara Norris, ND, a naturopathic doctor specializing in women's health, pediatrics, skin health, digestive health, and hormonal health. Together, these conversations explore why there is no one-size-fits-all approach to health, how acupuncture can influence the body's patterns of imbalance, the importance of nervous system regulation, and why collaboration between conventional and naturopathic providers can give patients more comprehensive care. From Lyme disease, mold exposure, chronic pain, hormones, PCOS, menopause, allergies and immune health to sleep, nutrition, stress, movement, and nervous system regulation, this episode offers a fascinating look at what personalized naturopathic care can look like. If you've ever wondered what naturopathic doctors actually do, how acupuncture fits into modern healthcare, or what it means to truly treat the whole person, you'll want to listen to both conversations. Timestamps 00:00 — Welcome 07:25 — Dr. Kerry: Acupuncture & Natural Medicine 12:12 — Blending Chinese Medicine and Naturopathy 19:14 — Integrative Care and Community Referrals 23:25 — Northwoods Health, Lyme, and Herbal Care 25:34 — Immune Support and Allergy Tips 29:34 — Beadwork, Breathing, and Martial Arts 34:02 — Dr. Sara: From Finance to Naturopathic Medicine 37:23 — Inside an Integrative Health Clinic 43:10 — Root-Cause Care for Adults and Kids 50:25 — Sleep, Weight, and Blood Sugar 57:22 — Vitamin D, Sunlight, and Daily Health Habits 60:49 — Dr. Sara's Foundational Health Advice In This Episode You'll Learn ✔️ How naturopathic medicine and acupuncture can work together ✔️ Why personalized healthcare is so important ✔️ How acupuncture may help communicate signals to the body ✔️ The role of Chinese medicine in addressing underlying patterns of imbalance ✔️ How nervous system regulation can influence your overall health ✔️ The connection between mold exposure, stress and the nervous system ✔️ How naturopathic doctors approach complex conditions like Lyme disease ✔️ Natural strategies for supporting immune health and seasonal allergies ✔️ Why collaboration between conventional and naturopathic providers matters ✔️ Dr. Sara's perspective on women's health, hormones and integrative care ✔️ Why sleep deserves more attention when you're struggling with your health ✔️ How blood sugar, nutrition and lifestyle can influence energy and wellbeing ✔️ Why environmental exposures deserve consideration in a comprehensive health approach ✔️ How movement, breathing, creativity, laughter and community can support nervous system health Key Takeaways Your diagnosis is not your entire health story. Whether you're dealing with chronic illness, hormone changes, Lyme disease, digestive problems, sleep issues, or simply trying to optimize your health, these conversations highlight one important principle: Your care should be as individual as you are. Dr. Kerry and Dr. Sara approach naturopathic medicine from different perspectives and areas of expertise, but both conversations come back to the importance of looking at the whole person rather than reducing someone to a symptom or diagnosis. From acupuncture and Chinese medicine to functional testing, nutrition, lifestyle, nervous system support, and collaboration with conventional medicine, there are many pieces that can contribute to a more complete picture of health. Sometimes the most important question isn't "What should I take?" It's: "What is my body trying to tell me?"

    Ep 623: Is brain degeneration a myth? with Dr. Greg Eckel

    What if everything we've been told about Parkinson's disease and brain degeneration is wrong? For decades we've been told that neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson's are progressive, irreversible, and caused primarily by the loss of dopamine. But what if that's only part of the story? In this fascinating conversation, Dr. Jannine Krause sits down with Dr. Greg Eckel, naturopathic physician, acupuncturist, neuroregeneration pioneer, founder of the Academy of Mind-Body Medicine (AGEMED), and author of Defying Parkinson's, to challenge conventional thinking about brain disease. After losing his wife to a neurodegenerative illness, Dr. Eckel began questioning everything he believed about medicine. That journey led him to a revolutionary perspective: The brain doesn't simply degenerate, it runs out of energy. In this episode we'll explore how restoring mitochondrial function, reducing inflammation, supporting gut health, balancing the nervous system, and addressing environmental toxins may help create new possibilities for healing, not only for Parkinson's disease but also traumatic brain injuries, cognitive decline, and optimizing peak mental performance. If you or someone you love has Parkinson's, memory loss, a traumatic brain injury, or simply wants to improve brain health, this episode will completely change the way you think about the brain. Timestamps 00:00 Introduction to Dr. Greg Eckel 02:45 The diagnosis that changed Dr. Eckel's life forever 08:20 Why Parkinson's isn't just a dopamine deficiency 14:30 The biggest misconception about neurodegenerative disease 20:10 The brain doesn't degenerate—it loses energy 27:15 Mitochondria: the missing piece of brain health 33:40 Gut health, inflammation & environmental toxins 40:30 Why conventional medicine manages symptoms instead of restoring function 47:20 Regenerative medicine and the future of neurological care 54:10 Lifestyle strategies that support brain regeneration 59:15 Optimizing brain performance—even without disease In This Episode You'll Learn ✔️ Why Parkinson's disease involves much more than dopamine loss ✔️ The hidden role of mitochondrial dysfunction in brain disorders ✔️ How brain energy influences cognition, movement, and recovery ✔️ The surprising connection between gut health and neurological disease ✔️ Why environmental toxins may contribute to neurodegeneration ✔️ Lifestyle habits that support neuroplasticity and brain regeneration ✔️ How movement, sleep, and stress influence healing ✔️ Emerging regenerative medicine therapies for Parkinson's and traumatic brain injury ✔️ Why optimizing brain health benefits everyone—not just those with neurological disease ✔️ What the future of neuroregeneration could look like Key Takeaways The traditional model of brain disease may be incomplete. Rather than simply accepting degeneration, Dr. Greg Eckel encourages us to understand how the brain's energy systems influence function, healing, and resilience. By supporting mitochondrial health, reducing inflammation, improving gut health, and restoring nervous system balance, we may be able to shift what's possible for patients living with neurological conditions—and for anyone seeking better cognitive performance.
