  • In this episode, we’re diving into the hot topic of protein sparing modified fasting (PSMF) and why short, strategic “3-day sprints” can be a powerful metabolic reset. Ali shares how these brief hypocaloric phases may help accelerate body fat loss while supporting anti-inflammatory processes and increasing autophagy, the body’s natural cellular cleanup system.

    The literature consistently shows that most diets fail long term, with weight regain common within five years, and often much sooner with more aggressive interventions like GLP-1 medications or surgical approaches. In this conversation we explore who may benefit from protein sparing fasts, who should avoid them, where supplements fit in and how to implement this strategy. We also discuss research on autophagy.

She earned her medical degree from Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine, completed residency at St. Vincent’s Mercy Hospital, and fellowship at the Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine.

  • Are ADHD and autism purely genetic and neurological, or could oxidative stress be a missing piece of the puzzle? In this episode of the Naturally Nourished Podcast, we unpack the growing conversation around how excessive oxidative burden and low antioxidant status may influence brain chemistry, behavior, and symptom expression. We explore how modern inputs like environmental exposures, dietary patterns, metabolic stress, and toxin load can contribute to neurological inflammation and why looking upstream at root drivers can shift how we approach support strategies.

    We also break down what actually helps lower oxidative stress in practical, sustainable ways, from stabilizing blood sugar and prioritizing protein to increasing antioxidant-rich produce and targeted nutrient support. This conversation connects the dots between physiology and daily habits, giving you tangible tools to support neurological resilience, mood regulation, and cognitive function using food-as-medicine.

  • Are peptides the wellness world’s newest miracle, or just the latest overhyped biohack? With ads for injectable weight-loss solutions everywhere you look and wellness influencers calling peptides the holy grail, we’re taking a step back to unpack what’s actually going on beneath the marketing. In this episode, we break down what peptides are, what they do in the body, and why they’ve suddenly exploded in popularity across both clinical and wellness spaces.

    We’re also diving into the questions we know you’re really asking—are peptide injections actually safe, who (if anyone) are they appropriate for, and what should give you pause? This conversation walks through the mechanisms, risks, and real-world considerations from a functional medicine lens as well as how you can get similar results without subjecting yourself to expensive weekly injections.
