  • EPISODE 186: If you’re a long-time listener of the podcast, then you probably know I’m a big proponent of consuming organ meats.

    I know, the idea of eating organs isn’t the best, but organ meats contain the same essential nutrients found in prenatal vitamins, and that makes them an excellent natural alternative for reproductive health and general well-being.

    So, if you’re looking to have a healthy pregnancy or just want to optimize your nutrient levels in general, they are an essential addition to your diet.

    In this episode, I sit down with Chef James Barry, the founder of Pluck, a seasoning blend containing organ meats, to discuss just that.

    Together, he and I will be talking about why you need to incorporate organ meats in your diet, the best way to cook this type of meat if you don’t like the taste, how consuming organ meats can actually help with digestion, and more.

    Are you ready?

    Introduction (00:00)

    Why you need to consume organ meats (01:30)

    Why Chef James eat organ meats (11:00)

  • EPISODE 184: This week’s episode is extra special, because in it, I interview Katelyn Hansen, a past client of mine who went from bleeding five months at a time to regular cycles after going through the Hormonal Reset Program.

    This is exactly what I discuss in this week’s episode of Balancing Hormones Naturally, so, if you need tips on how to fight the horrible morning sickness that comes with pregnancy, then this is the episode for you.

  • EPISODE 182: Many of my listeners contact me with questions like “I have to eat out because I was traveling, will this ruin my progress?” or “ I’m pregnant and I can’t handle meat right now, how badly am I going to hurt my hormones?” and my answer is always the same: You’re not going to hurt your hormones at all.

    This is because hormonal balance (as well as hormonal imbalance) comes as the result of long-term habits. And so, eating junk food once won’t ruin your hormones. On the other hand, eating one blood sugar balanced meal once won’t help your hormones either.

    It’s all about building good habits (and getting rid of bad ones), slowly but surely.

    Not sure where to start?

    Well you’re in luck, because this is exactly what I discuss in this week’s episode of the Balancing Hormones Naturally podcast.

    Are you ready?

    Let’s dive in.

    Key Takeaways:

    Introduction (00:00)

    Why consistency matters (01:00)

    What happens when you ignore your hormones (04:53)

    Why I started paying attention to my health (10:48)

    How all things build upon each other (13:36)

  • EPISODE 177: Is your hormonal health still a mystery to you? Then you might want to give the DUTCH test a try!

    The DUTCH test (or Dried Urine Testing for Comprehensive Hormones test) is a great way to reveal hidden hormone imbalances that standard blood tests may miss, particularly in estrogen metabolism and cortisol patterns.

    The test's ability to show hormone metabolite patterns allows for more personalized and effective treatment plans, especially for people suffering from conditions like PCOS, adrenal fatigue, and menopause.

    And that’s exactly why I love the DUTCH test and use it with a lot of my clients.

    To dive deeper into this, I’ve invited an expert on the podcast, the amazing Dr. Kelly Ruef.

    Dr. Ruef is a licensed naturopathic doctor and clinical educator at Precision Analytical, the inventors of the DUTCH test.

    In this episode, she’ll be breaking down what makes the DUTCH test different from other standard blood tests, why adrenal support is essential for women, especially ones experiencing menopause, how the DUTCH test can help treat PCOS, and more.

    Are you ready?

    Let’s dive in.

    Key Takeaways:

    Introduction (00:00)

    Let’s talk about the DUTCH test (02:39)

    Who needs a DUTCH test (05:38)

    The connection between cortisol and DHEA (12:37)

    Information for women with PCOS (21:26)

    Let’s talk organic acids (27:25)

    In this episode, both Brandi and Desiree will be diving deeper into the benefits of functional mushrooms and sharing with us how we can use them to balance out hormones.

    ➡️ Energy Balls Recipe:

    2 cups of shredded coconut

    1 cup of nut butter of choice

    1 tsp of redmond’s or celtic sea salt

    1 tsp of vanilla extract

    1 cup of your ground seed blend for that phase

    3.5 tsp of your mushroom blend for that phase

    1 bar of dark chocolate chopped up

    1/3 cup of honey

    Mold into balls and refrigerate. You want to make the size of your balls so that each batch only lasts 7 days. This means you will get the appropriate amount of seeds and mushroom blend for each day. I try and make 14 balls. You may need to play around with how much nut butter you put in to really nail the texture. Also, you really can’t taste the mushrooms at all!

  • EPISODE 169: Did you know? Around 15% of Americans experience magnesium deficiency. This number, as low as it looks, is more alarming than you might think.

    Magnesium is an essential mineral for our bodies. We need it to live a healthy and balanced life, so why do so many of us experience a lack of it? And how do we solve this deficiency?

    Dr. Carolyn is a holistic medicine expert with over 50 years of experience. She is famous for her work in public health and clinical research. She is also a magnesium expert and the author of Magnesium: The Missing Link to Total Health.

    In this episode, Dr. Carolyn and I discuss the essential role of magnesium in keeping our bodies healthy, the symptoms of magnesium deficiency, why we need proper magnesium levels testing, and more.
