SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth) is when bacteria from the large intestine travel to the small and overpopulate it. As a result, there are more microbes in your small intestine than there should be that release toxins and trigger gut inflammation. SIBO then impacts the stomach by causing gas, bloating, abdominal pain, heartburn, diarrhea & other discomfort after eating due to the microbes fermenting carbohydrates in your gut. SIBO can also interfere with your absorption of nutrients. You may exhale some of this gas through your lungs, which is why doctors measure SIBO through breath testing. Often this will clear up with diet tweaks/probiotics/digestive enzymes and parasite cleansing. The ileocecal valve controls the movement of materials between your small & large intestine. Sometimes this valve malfunctions. Parasites are a common culprit because they like to hang out in this part of the gut and can physically block the valve and keep it from closing. In these cases, all the probiotics in the world can't help until parasites are addressed. 😬 Diet, medication and health disorders can increase your SIBO risk. ➡️ Diets high in sugar & carbs promote SIBO. ➡️ Antibiotics, antacids & other heartburn medication increase SIBO risk. ➡️ Diseases that impact the digestive tract can also increase your propensity of getting SIBO. This includes thyroid disorders, cirrhosis, Crohn's disease, Celiac disease and diabetes. Low FODMAP diets are helpful for folks with SIBO. FODMAPS (fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides and polyols) are sugars found in foods like fructose, lactose, fructans, galactans and polyols. They’re not completely absorbed by the human body & are easily fermented by gut bacteria which can cause significant gastrointestinal problems. Check out slide 2 from fodmaplife.com to see common foods to enjoy & avoid. The goal through detox & the low FODMAP diet is that you will allow your body to heal... and then you can slowly begin to incorporate the FODMAPS back in without the digestive discomfort. 💪 DM me for links to free SIBO meal plans!

If you're stuck in a rut on your weight loss journey, it could be because you haven't addressed toxins as a root cause. Toxins are stored in fat. One of fat's purposes is to absorb certain toxins to prevent them from going to other parts of your body. This includes things like pesticides, heavy metals, mold, pollutants, plastics, preservatives, mold & pathogens. These toxins can also cause insulin resistance, disrupt your thyroid and affect other fat-related hormones like leptin, cortisol & estrogen. Once you start to remove these toxins & you reduce your inflammation, your body starts to normalize & is better able to respond to your diet and exercise regimen. Wondering what toxins you may be struggling with? Message me to take a self assessment. Touchstone Essentials zeolite spray is great for removing heavy metals, nitrosamines, volatile organic compounds, pesticides/herbicides and other toxins that could be hindering you from reaching your weight loss goals.

But they look SO cool! This is an unsuspecting source of toxins for most. According to Green Med Info, "A recent study published in the Journal of Hazardous Materials revealed that chemicals present in tattoo ink induced cytotoxicity (cell death), genotoxicity (DNA mutation), and adaptive stress response pathways.” This is a short list of toxins you could find in your tattoo ink...   Heavy metals like mercury, cadmium, lead, copper, titanium and nickel.  Titanium dioxide (genotoxic/damages DNA)  Bacteria strains like staphylococci, streptococcus and pseudomonas  Carcinogens like phthalates and benzo(a)pyrene  Chemical preservatives  Carbon black & polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (carcinogens made from soot)  HCBD (a hazardous waste)  Mold There have been over 100 studies on the health effects of tattoo ink revealing its effects on brain damage, nerve damage, autoimmunity, birth defects and cancer. Tattoo pigments aren't regulated by the FDA and many ink recipes are proprietary. Not all colors are created equal - different colors use different ingredients for pigmentation with red being the riskiest. If you still want to get some ink done, look for organic, vegan tattoo artists. Here are some other things to look out for: Black - Choose inks derives from logwood and magnetite crystals & avoid animal based inks (India inks)  Red - red ink with naphthol instead of cadmium, mercury or iron oxide  Purple - Carbazole or dioxazine instead of manganese violet  Yellow - Choose arylide or tumeric based pigments.  Blue - Sodium based copper pthalocyanine pigment  Green - Monoazo copper pthalocyanine pigment  Brown - Avoid iron oxide And if you are already tatted up and are struggling to get to the root cause of your health issues, a heavy metal detox or lymphatic cleanse may be a game changer.

Heavy metals should be detoxed after parasite cleansing for a couple of reasons.   #1 - Heavy metals suppress your immune system and keep you from fighting infections (like parasites).   #2 - Parasites are also attracted to heavy metals, and metals create an environment for parasites to thrive. A great analogy is to think of heavy metals like an industrial plant that keeps dumping toxins into a stream.  You may take great efforts to clean the stream (aka parasite cleansing) until you have a healthy population of fish and algae and so on, and a month or two down the line, everything is dead again because the plant continues to dump toxic gunk.   You have to stop the dumping of toxin heavy metals that suppress your immune system and foster disease.  That's done through periodic detox, and eliminating common sources of heavy metal toxicity from your every day life.

A friend took her son to the doctors office this morning because he had a small cyst that got progressively more irritated over the weekend. This is what she sent me after. So many times cysts are actually misdiagnosed parasites, and this kid actually spiked a fever over the weekend - possibly due to this infection. My kids parasite cleanse multiple times a year, and get antiparasitics when they start to come down with something.

Have you ever had a sudden downturn in your health? Do you have a history of mold exposure? Have you ever experienced sick building syndrome where you feel bad inside certain places like home, school or work but feel better when you leave? If so, you could be struggling from mold illness. Mold illness occurs when mold grows indoors & produces toxins. Mold can colonize in any mucosal lining in your body and is commonly found in the digestive tract, lungs and sinuses. Because of mold's ability to thrive in your body, it can cause serious health issues. This is why many people move out of a moldy home but still continue to feel sick. Mold also mimics other health conditions and often gets misdiagnosed. Mold can be found in water damaged buildings (in many cases the water damage is unknown), water, air and in food like grains, nuts, coffee. Mold toxins (mycotoxins) suppress your immune system, slow your thyroid, reduce oxygen and generate endotoxins. Here's a short list of mold toxicity risk factors: Ever experienced water damage at home, work, or school? Plumbing in your kitchen or bathroom leaks or has leaked in the past? Wet spots anywhere in your home (whether currently or past)? Car has a mildewy smell? Often see condensation (fog) on the inside of windows and/or cold surfaces in your home? One or more family members have chronic sinus infections or irritations? Wake up during the night with an attack of coughing? Chest tightness when around animals or a dusty part of the house? Suffer from anxiety or depression? Weight loss resistance Body rashes/skin conditions? Frequent urination, unable to hold bladder? Headaches/migraines? Extreme/unusual fatigue? Symptoms decrease when spending time in a different location for a few days? If you suspect you could be struggling from mold toxicity, let's talk ! There are some great detoxes & binders that help to remove mold from the body.

Breast implants. Botox. Tattoos. Silver fillings. Are you under the impression that these things are safe and have no impact on your health? Do you believe that any associated toxins stay at the injection/implantation site and don't spread throughout the body? Keep reading... Breast implants - Implants have more toxins than I can list. Some of the more common ones include heavy metals, silicone, stearic acid, talcum powder, benzene, sodium fluoride & toluene. These toxins slowly leak into the body and can cause a host of issues like headaches, neurological issues, thyroid disfunction and BIA-ALCL (Breast Implant-Associated Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma). Saline implants don't exempt you from breast implant illness - because they aren't hermetically sealed toxins not only exit but bodily fluids, yeast, bacteria and mold can enter the implant and cause decay. Botox - Made from the botulinum toxin that causes botulism. Botulinum toxin is the most potent neurotoxic substance known to man (a single gram is capable of killing a million people)... so it would make sense that even in the smallest of doses would have some side effects. Botox causes inflammation and oxidation which actually speeds up the aging process and will cause the deterioration of your skin much like smoking and UV rays. Because it works by deadening facial nerves and muscles, it causes loss of strength and all-over muscle weakness over time. It also contains human albumin (blood components) which can harbor viruses and parasites and has it's own list of adverse reactions which includes anaphylaxis. Tattoos - Tattoos can contain heavy metals, titanium dioxide, carbon black, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, HCBD, phthalates and benzo(a)pyrene. Associated health conditions range from cytotoxicity (cell death), genotoxicity (DNA mutation), brain damage, nerve damage, autoimmunity, birth defects and cancer. Getting them removed doesn't necessarily absolve you from toxicity - when lasered, the toxins are broken down and could be absorbed into the bloodstream. If the lymphatic system is congested, waste can build up in the body causing more issues. Silver/Amalgam fillings - These are made from a mixture of mercury and other metals. There's about 1/2 gram of mercury in a filling... which exceeds the EPA's standards for human exposure for 100 years. An estimated 15 micrograms are released per day through mechanical wear and evaporation...you can actually measure mercury vapor off the tip of an amalgam-filled tooth. When mercury interacts with oral and intestinal bacteria, methyl mercury is produced which can target and damage the brain, thyroid and pituitary glands. Most people don't realize that any of these can be the root cause of your chronic health condition. Food for thought for those considering since our healthcare system sucks at informed consent. And if you have them there are always removal and detox options.

Mold toxicity mimics many other conditions and often gets undiagnosed. Mold is very common and is found in air, water, damaged buildings, washing machines, windows and food like nuts, grains, coffee, spices, dairy & bulk foods like cereal. Mold toxins (mycotoxins) suppress your immune system, slow your thyroid, reduce oxygen and generate endotoxins. Check out these mold symptoms and see how you measure up.
