The Book That Restored Her Health with Guest Sarah Shah

What happens when you stop accepting symptoms as something you simply have to live with and start taking a more active role in your health? In this episode, Dr. Hotze sits down with Sarah Shaw, who shares how reading Hormones, Health, and Happiness nearly 20 years ago changed the way she approached her health. At the time, Sarah was struggling with severe fatigue, brain fog, itching, recurring fungal infections, and intense sugar cravings. After recognizing her symptoms in Dr. Hotze’s book, she began following a yeast-free eating program focused on eliminating sugar and simple carbohydrates. She says her symptoms began improving within the first 30 days. Sarah explains how that experience encouraged her to become what Dr. Hotze calls her own “health contractor.” Over the years, she experimented with different approaches to determine what worked best for her body, including eliminating foods she felt were contributing to her symptoms and using tools such as a continuous glucose monitor to understand her response to certain foods better. She also shares how removing gluten and pasteurized dairy from her diet helped her address significant joint discomfort and regain the ability to stay active. Dr. Hotze and Sarah also discuss the importance of continually educating yourself about your health. Sarah’s message is simple: you do not have to change everything at once. Start somewhere, pay attention to how your body responds, and continue making choices that move you toward better health. Watch now and subscribe to our podcasts at www.HotzePodcast.com.

How to Cure Candida – Medication and Lifestyle Changes that Work with Bryana Burken, PharmD, RPh

Could yeast overgrowth be contributing to symptoms like brain fog, bloating, fatigue, or persistent sugar cravings? In this episode, Bryana Burken, Pharmacist and Physician Liaison with Physicians Preference Pharmacy, explains the purpose behind the yeast-free eating program and why addressing gut health is an important part of the Hotze Health & Wellness Center's approach to wellness. She discusses how Candida naturally exists throughout the body but may become problematic when it overgrows, potentially contributing to digestive issues, recurrent yeast infections, oral thrush, skin concerns, headaches, fatigue, and brain fog. Bryana explores factors that may contribute to yeast overgrowth and discusses the relationship between gut health and food sensitivities. It is important to repair the gut before moving forward with other therapies. The yeast-free eating program focuses on temporarily eliminating foods that contain or feed yeast, while emphasizing whole foods. The episode also explains how dietary changes may be combined with prescription antifungal therapy. Bryana emphasizes that the program is intended to address yeast overgrowth in a structured way rather than serve as a permanently restrictive diet. After completing the program, guests gradually reintroduce foods while continuing to support a healthier gut environment. The goal is to reduce symptoms such as bloating and brain fog, support energy and immune function, and create a healthier foundation for the body's response to other wellness therapies.

Hormone Therapy for Men – More Than Testosterone with Gabrielle Foppe, PA

It’s not just about testosterone! Low testosterone isn’t the only hormone men should be concerned about. In this episode, Elaina Mango, Vice President of the Hotze Health & Wellness Center, is joined by Physician Assistant Gabrielle Foppe to discuss why optimal men's health requires much more than simply treating testosterone levels. They explain how symptoms are often dismissed as normal aging when they may actually be signs of underlying hormone imbalances. They emphasize that thyroid hormones, adrenal hormones, and overall metabolic health all play important roles in a man's energy, mental clarity, and long-term wellness. The conversation also explores why many men delay seeking help due to social stigma and the belief that they should "push through" their symptoms. Elaina and Gabrielle explain the difference between gradual hormone decline in men, often referred to as andropause, and menopause in women. The episode also addresses concerns surrounding low testosterone clinics, highlighting the importance of physician oversight and avoiding excessive testosterone use that may lead to unwanted side effects. Finally, Elaina and Gabrielle encourage both men and their spouses to recognize the signs of hormone imbalance early and seek a personalized approach to restoring long-term health and wellness.

Cyclospora Outbreak 2026 - Fact & Fiction

Is the recent concern over Cyclospora infections something most people should worry about? In this episode, Dr. Hotze discusses the parasite Cyclospora, explaining what it is, how it is transmitted, and why he believes the public response has been disproportionate to the number of reported cases.

Based on the information presented, Dr. Hotze emphasizes that most cases are treatable and encourages listeners to keep the reported numbers in perspective. He also discusses basic food safety practices, such as thoroughly washing fresh produce before eating it. The episode concludes with practical recommendations for maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including continuing to eat fresh vegetables while properly washing produce, staying informed about health issues, and focusing on long-term wellness strategies.

How to Heal Your Gut in 90 Days with Gabrielle Foppe, PA-C

Can improving your gut health transform your overall health? In this episode, Elaina Mango, Vice President of the Hotze Health & Wellness Center, is joined by Physician Assistant Gabrielle Foppe to introduce the center's new 90-Day Gut Repair Therapy Program. They explain why optimal health begins in the digestive system and discuss how poor gut health can contribute to far more than digestive discomfort. Rather than simply masking symptoms, they emphasize identifying and addressing the underlying causes through a structured, natural approach. Elaina and Gabrielle outline the three-step approach to gut repair: first eliminating unwanted yeast and harmful microbes, then restoring healthy gut bacteria, and finally supporting long-term healing through nutrition and lifestyle changes. They also discuss why simply taking an over-the-counter probiotic is often not enough to fully restore gut health. The 90-day telehealth program includes comprehensive lab work, medical oversight, prescription medications when appropriate, nutritional guidance, pharmacist consultations, supplements, and a structured eating program designed to support gut healing. View gut health as the foundation for long-term wellness to restore digestive health and improve your overall quality of life. Watch now and subscribe to our podcasts at www.HotzePodcast.com.

Chronic Symptoms of Parasites with Bryana Burken, PharmD, RPh

Could parasites be contributing to chronic fatigue, digestive issues, brain fog, or unexplained health symptoms? In this episode, Bryana Burken, pharmacist and physician liaison with Physicians Preference Pharmacy, is joined by Elaina Mango, Vice President of the Hotze Health & Wellness Center, to discuss common misconceptions about parasites, how exposure can happen in everyday life, and why these infections may be more common than many people realize. Bryana and Elaina explain how parasites can be acquired through pets, food, travel, standing water, and environmental exposure, not just poor sanitation. They discuss the wide range of symptoms parasites may cause, and explore why parasite testing can be challenging, why false negatives are common, and how providers often rely on a combination of clinical symptoms, medical history, and treatment response when evaluating possible parasitic infections. Bryana also explains the role of compounded medications, why customized formulations may be appropriate for some patients, and why working with an experienced healthcare provider is essential when addressing parasites and other chronic health concerns.

Benefits of Estrogen Balancing for Healthspan with Bryana Burken, PharmD, RPh

Why is estrogen about so much more than reproductive health? In this episode, Bryana Burken, Pharmacist and Physician Liaison with Physicians Preference Pharmacy, is joined by Elaina Mango, Vice President of the Hotze Health & Wellness Center, to discuss estrogen’s vital role in overall wellness, healthy aging, fertility, brain function, skin health, and longevity. Together, they explain why hormonal balance is essential throughout every stage of a woman’s life, from puberty and childbearing years to perimenopause and menopause. The conversation explores the difference between estrogen dominance and estrogen deficiency, common symptoms, and how environmental toxins and modern lifestyle factors can disrupt healthy hormone balance. Bryana and Elaina also discuss the importance of bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, why it differs from synthetic hormones, and why treating symptoms without addressing the underlying hormonal imbalance often leaves women searching for answers. Most importantly, they encourage women to advocate for themselves, seek providers who listen to their symptoms, and understand that feeling unwell should never be accepted as a normal part of aging.
