Truly Healthy MD Podcast

Welcome to the Truly Healthy MD Podcast! I’m Dr. Monica Jauregui, a board-certified internist and functional medicine doctor. So many of my patients come to me after being told “everything looks fine,” but they still don’t feel like themselves. This podcast is about what happens next. We dig into the hidden drivers of chronic illness—like hormone imbalances, thyroid and adrenal dysfunction, gut issues, autoimmune disorders, mold toxicity, and more—and uncover how real recovery unfolds. If you’re looking for answers that conventional medicine hasn’t provided, this show is for you.

    Healing Eczema from the Inside Out: Addressing Root Causes Naturally

    In this episode of the Truly Healthy MD Podcast, host Dr. Monica Jauregui sits down with Andra McHugh, a natural health advocate who transitioned from the dental industry into holistic healing after her own daughters suffered from severe eczema. Together, they reframe eczema from being a surface-level skin condition to a sign of deeper internal imbalance involving the gut, liver, lymphatic system, and toxic load. Andra shares why conventional treatments often fall short and offers a root-cause approach focused on detoxification, nutrition, and nervous system regulation. Listeners will learn practical, natural strategies to calm flares, support healing from within, and regain hope that eczema is not only manageable—but reversible. Dr. Monica Jauregui talks with Andra McHugh about healing eczema naturally by addressing gut health, detox pathways, and environmental triggers on the Truly Healthy MD Podcast. I had the pleasure of speaking with Andra McHugh about why eczema is not a surface problem—and why lasting healing requires looking deeper. We discuss how gut dysfunction, toxic overload, and impaired detox pathways drive chronic inflammation, and why suppressing symptoms with steroids often delays true recovery. Andra shares practical tools for managing flares naturally, including nourishing skin with tallow-based creams, herbal-infused oils, and Epsom salt baths. We also explore hidden triggers like mold, EMFs, and household toxins, along with immediate action steps families can take to reduce inflammation and support healing. This episode offers both hope and a clear roadmap for those navigating eczema naturally. Andra McHugh is a natural health advocate who helps families reverse eczema using holistic, root-cause approaches. After leaving the dental industry, she dedicated her work to healing chronic skin conditions naturally following her daughters’ severe eczema journeys. Her work emphasizes gut healing, detoxification, environmental awareness, and nourishing the body from the inside out.

    The Hidden Epidemic: Brain Inflammation, Mold Toxicity & The Hope for Healing with Dr. Pejman Katiraei

    In this eye-opening episode of Truly Healthy MD, I’m joined by Dr. Pejman Katiraei, an integrative pediatrician who has helped countless families uncover the real reasons behind anxiety, ADHD, learning difficulties, and autism. We dive into why so many children and adults are living with brain inflammation—often without even knowing it—and how conventional medicine tends to focus only on diagnosing and medicating symptoms rather than asking why these symptoms are happening in the first place. Dr. Katiraei explains the powerful impact of mold and mycotoxins—hidden toxins that can disrupt the gut, overwhelm the immune system, and rewire the brain’s perception of fear and safety. You’ll hear about the critical connection between gut health and neurological symptoms, practical strategies to identify mold exposure, and hopeful stories of transformation when the true root causes are addressed. If you’ve ever felt that something deeper is being missed in your or your child’s health journey, this conversation will empower you with knowledge and a path forward. ---- In this conversation, I sit down with Dr. Pejman Katiraei to discuss why so many children and adults today are experiencing anxiety, ADHD, sensory sensitivities, and learning difficulties—and why our current healthcare system often misses the bigger picture.

Dr. Katiraei shares practical insights on how to identify hidden triggers, support gut healing, and begin a journey toward transformative recovery. If you’ve felt that conventional approaches haven’t gotten to the root of what’s happening in your family’s health, this episode offers clarity, hope, and next steps. ---- Dr. Pejman Katiraei, DO, is an integrative pediatrician with deep expertise in uncovering the root causes of complex pediatric and mental health challenges.
