If you keep listening for 6–12 months, you’ll get real, practical, and actionable advice from me and from experts who’ve either lived your struggles or walk closely with women just like you, so you can feel confident, supported, and guided toward better health.

    Stop Managing Symptoms: How to Actually Heal Hormone Imbalance with Dr. Jeffrey Brown

    Stage 4 Cancer to Nearly Cancer Free: Emma's Miracle Recovery with Dr. Francisco Contreras

    Send us Fan Mail At 43 years old, Emma Victoria Johnson was handed a stage 4 cancer diagnosis. Within days she lost her partner and watched her business fall apart. Doctors gave her two options, chemo tablets that might buy her 18 months or nothing at all with 3 months to live. She refused both and got on a plane to Oasis of Hope Hospital in Tijuana, Mexico, where Dr. Francisco Contreras and his team treat the whole person instead of just the tumor. In this episode, Dr. Contreras shares the legacy his father built by pioneering holistic cancer care back in the 1950s, the two guiding principles behind their integrative therapies, and why he believes emotional and spiritual health are just as important to healing as any physical treatment. Emma opens up about the fear of that first flight to Mexico, the community of patients who became her family, and how rediscovering her faith became a turning point in her recovery. Together they talk honestly about what conventional oncology gets wrong, why natural therapies rarely get studied, and the simple daily habits that can lower cancer risk significantly. What you will learn in this episode: - Why Dr. Contreras believes the immune system, not the tumor alone, should be the real focus of cancer treatment - The two guiding principles behind Oasis of Hope's integrative approach to care - How stress, unresolved emotions, and spiritual disconnection can impact the immune system - What actually happens during a patient's first visit, from personalized immune therapy to metabolic treatment - Simple, research backed habits that can lower cancer risk by up to 50 percent - Why Emma believes cancer does not have to be a death sentence If this episode gave you hope or a new perspective, we would love for you to like, comment, and subscribe so more people going through a difficult diagnosis can find this conversation.

    Why Half Your Nitric Oxide Disappears by Middle Age (And How to Get It Back)

    Send us Fan Mail What if the secret to more energy, better circulation, and feeling like yourself again was one gas your body makes less of every single year? In this episode, Dr. Joshua Sharp talks with Richard Perry (chef, entrepreneur, and founder of NutriGardens and the Red Spinach Company) about nitric oxide, the "healing gas" behind endurance, circulation, and vitality at any age. Richard shares his journey from cooking beside his grandmother to developing a nitric-oxide-boosting powder used by pro athletes and Olympic swimmers, and explains why red spinach (the amaranth plant) contains roughly five times the nitrate content of beets. He also gets into mindfulness, chef-level tips for actually enjoying vegetables, and why a "nitric oxide lifestyle" is about far more than any single supplement. In this episode you'll learn: • What nitric oxide is and why we naturally lose about half our production by middle age • Why red spinach has significantly more dietary nitrate than beets • Foods and habits that naturally support healthy nitric oxide levels • What mindfulness actually means and how a simple daily practice can lower stress • Chef secrets for cooking vegetables so they actually taste good • Why supplements are one piece of a much bigger nitric-oxide lifestyle If you've been feeling low energy, sluggish, or just not like yourself, this conversation offers simple, practical ways to start supporting your body's circulation and vitality.

    Why "Organic" Doesn't Mean What You Think It Does

    Send us Fan Mail Why is chronic illness at an all-time high when we have more food (and more "food science") than ever before? In this episode, Dr. Joshua Sharp sits down with Bob Underwood (better known as Farmer Bob), a third-generation berry farmer and founder of Beyond Berries, to trace the surprising line between how our food is grown and why so many of us don't feel well. Bob shares decades of hands-on farming experience, explaining how agriculture quietly shifted from diagnosing the real problem to masking it with "input" solutions and how that same mindset shows up in modern medicine. You'll learn why the "organic" label doesn't mean what most people think, what actually creates nutrient-dense food, and why healthy soil isn't just a farming issue, it's a human health issue. In this episode you'll learn: • Why healthy soil creates healthy plants and healthy plants create healthy people • How agriculture shifted from solving root problems to treating symptoms with chemical inputs • The truth about the "organic" label (and why pesticide-free isn't guaranteed) • The surprising parallel between farming shortcuts and how modern medicine treats symptoms instead of causes • What actually puts minerals back into depleted soil and why it matters for your plate • Why spending a little more on real food now could mean spending a lot less on healthcare later If you've ever wondered why food "isn't what it used to be," this conversation will change the way you think about what's on your plate. Chapters: 00:00 Welcome & meet Farmer Bob 01:46 Growing up a third-generation berry farmer (and learning Spanish in the fields) 05:03 Finding his path: from running away to studying agriculture in New Zealand 07:25 The credo: healthy soil → healthy plants → healthy people 08:45 How today's chronic illness epidemic connects back to how we grow food 11:37 How agriculture shifted from diagnosing problems to "input" farming 13:21 The "aspirin for a headache" approach to pests and weeds 16:40 How the organic movement started (and the E. coli scare that changed everything) 18:48 The myth that "organic" means no pesticides 22:38 The parallel between agricultural band-aids and modern medicine 25:41 What Bob looks for when a plant gets sick 29:28 Dr. William Albrecht and the soil mineral balance discovery 31:24 Why a truly healthy plant doesn't need all those inputs (the lion & the gazelle) 34:21 What actually puts minerals in the soil — and how to rebuild it 37:27 Regenerative vs. biodynamic vs. traditional farming, explained 39:45 How to find real, nutrient-dense food 41:41 Ultra-processed foods: the same companies, the same playbook 45:11 Who profits when you stay sick 47:05 What's giving Bob hope for the future of agriculture 52:11 Why spending more on food now could mean spending less on healthcare later 54:36 What Beyond Berries is — and where to find it 🔗 Take the free quiz — Could It Be Lyme? → https://discoverhealthquiz.com 🛍️ Shop our supplement store → https://discoverhealth.gethealthy.store 📸 Follow us on Instagram → https://instagram.com/discoverhealthfm More about our guest, Farmer Bob: 🌐 Website (Beyond Berries) → https://farmerbob.com 📸 Instagram → https://instagram.com/farmerbobfruit #RegenerativeAgriculture #HealthySoil #FunctionalMedicine #RootCauseHealth #CleanEating #DiscoverHealthFM Support the show Check out my site: https://www.discoverhealthfm.com/ Online store: https://discoverhealth.gethealthy.store/ The information provided on the Discover Health Podcast is for educational and informational purposes only and is not intended as medical advice.

    Why You're Still Sick After COVID: The Hidden Spike Protein Damage No One Talks About

    Send us Fan Mail Why does long COVID hang on for months or years after everyone else has "recovered"? In this episode, Dr. Joshua Sharp sits down with Dr. Jess Armine, a functional medicine practitioner with nearly 50 years of clinical experience, to break down what's actually happening inside your cells when long COVID won't let go. Dr. Armine explains the "cell danger response," why the spike protein is one of the most damaging toxins your body has ever had to deal with, and why it hits your mitochondria (your body's energy factories) so hard that everyday life starts to feel impossible. You'll learn why fatigue, brain fog, mood changes, and unexplained symptoms are signals, not diagnoses, and why treating the root cause alone often isn't enough to fully recover. In this episode you'll learn: • What long COVID actually is and why some people never return to their baseline • How the spike protein damages mitochondrial energy production (and why "just resting" doesn't fix it) • Why 75-85% of Dr. Armine's chronic illness patients have long COVID as a contributing factor • The difference between treating acute vs. chronic illness and why using acute protocols on chronic conditions can make things worse • Why normal lab tests don't mean nothing is wrong • Simple, at-home steps to start supporting your body's ability to clear the spike protein If you've been told your labs are "normal" but you still don't feel like yourself, this conversation will help you understand why — and give you real hope for healing. 🔗 Take the free quiz — Could It Be Lyme? → https://discoverhealthquiz.com 🛍️ Shop our supplement store → https://discoverhealth.gethealthy.store 📸 Follow us on Instagram → https://instagram.com/discoverhealthfm More about our guest, Dr. Jess Armine: 🌐 Website → https://drjessarmine.com 📸 Instagram → https://instagram.com/drjessarmine724 ▶️ YouTube → Search "Dr. Jess Armine" on YouTube 🧬 Learn more about the spike protein & Augmented NAC → https://augmentednac.com Chapters 00:00 Welcome & meet Dr. Jess Armine 00:58 Dr. Jess's backstory: from EMT to chiropractic to functional medicine 03:18 How his son's health crisis changed everything 05:34 What "terrain treatment" means and why it matters 06:26 Why vitamins and minerals often don't get absorbed 08:28 The cell danger response, explained simply 10:25 Acute vs. chronic illness — why the same treatment doesn't work for both 11:52 What is long COVID, really? 13:53 Can you get long COVID without ever having COVID?
