  Fertility, Miscarriage & the Oral Microbiome, with Dr. Nicole Vane

  Sep 21, 202630 min

  Many of us see our teeth as separate from the rest of the body and stop at brushing and a cleaning twice a year. Your mouth is connected to your hormones and fertility and can even affect your pregnancy. Dr. Naylor talks with Dr. Nicole Vane, a holistic dentist and owner of Moonlight Beach Dental in Encinitas, California. After dealing with mercury toxicity, Hashimoto's, and years on the pill, she moved to a whole-body approach. Her cycles became regular for the first time at 35, and she got pregnant naturally at 39. We get into: ✔️ How gum inflammation and hormone shifts show up together ✔️ The two gum bacteria linked to infertility and miscarriage, and why your partner should get tested too ✔️ Bleeding gums as an early warning sign ✔️ The problem with most mouthwashes and the "more fluoride" mindset ✔️ Why saving your natural teeth matters for long-term health ✔️ "Have a baby, lose a tooth" and what mineral depletion does to moms If you've been told to brush more and come back in three months, start here. This episode looks at what could be behind the problem. Topics Covered The link between oral health, hormones, and fertility Welcoming Dr. Nicole Vane Her story with mercury toxicity, Hashimoto's, and getting pregnant at 39 Where the mouth and hormones connect Gum inflammation and hormonal shifts What dry mouth and bone loss can signal as we age Root canals and breast health The gum bacteria tied to infertility What treatment looks like Bleeding gums as a warning sign The wilting houseplant analogy Mouthwash, fluoride, and other oral health myths Why saving your natural teeth matters Lyme, mold, and what shows up in the mouth first Daily habits for a healthy mouth "Have a baby, lose a tooth" and mineral depletion Where to find Dr. Nicole Vane Dr. Nicole Vane's Links Instagram: @nicolevanedentist Website: https://moonlightbeachdental.com Hit Subscribe or Follow so you never miss an episode.

  HRT and Migraine: What Every Woman Needs to Know with Dr. Amelia Scott Barrett

  Sep 9, 202635 min

  Migraine is now the leading cause of disability in women under 50, and most women dealing with them have been handed a pill and sent on their way. Dr. Naylor talks with Dr. Amelia Barrett, board-certified neurologist, TEDx speaker, founder of the Migraine Relief Code, and author of the new book Decode Your Migraine, about what migraines actually are, why your specific headache diagnosis matters less than you've been told, and how to start fixing the root causes. We get into: ✔️ Why the diagnosis (migraine vs. tension vs. cluster) matters less than the underlying biology ✔️ Chronification, and why waiting years to address headaches makes them so much harder to fix ✔️ Hormones and migraine, and why patch HRT is not off the table for you ✔️ The one blood test Dr. Barrett wants every woman to get (and the number to aim for) ✔️ How toxins, stress wiring, and nutrient deficiencies fill up your "migraine bucket" If you've been powering through headaches with ibuprofen and told there's nothing more to do, start here. Topics Covered: Why there's more to migraine than a pill Dr. Barrett's path from loving the brain to founding the Migraine Relief Code Migraine is the leading cause of disability in women under 50 What migraine actually looks like (it's subtler than you think) Why the diagnosis doesn't matter as much as we thought Why women go undiagnosed Functional genomics and the four drivers of migraine The free headache quiz Chronification and why you need to act sooner The hormone connection HRT and migraine, patch vs. pill The ferritin test every woman should get Toxins, mitochondria, and the energy crisis behind migraine The migraine bucket Stress and how your brain is wired Magnesium, riboflavin, and the migraine multivitamin Inside Decode Your Migraine Why you can't Google (or ask AI) your way out of migraine Where to find Dr. Barrett Dr. Amelia Barrett's Links Website: ameliascottbarrettmd.com Instagram: ameliascottbarrettmd Book: decodeyourmigraine.com (includes a free interactive workbook) or on Amazon in Kindle, paperback, and hardback Free quiz: theheadachequiz.com Hit Subscribe or Follow so you never miss an episode.

  The Fertility Blind Spots No One's Talking About, with Katie Wood

  Sep 2, 202622 min

  So many women spend a year or more trying to conceive with little real support, only to eventually land on a diagnosis like "unexplained infertility" that explains nothing at all. Dr. Naylor talks with Dr. Katie Wood, pharmacist, fertility and motherhood wellness coach, and the voice behind Happy Nourished Motherhood, about why the one-year wait for testing doesn't serve women, and what's really going on when conception isn't happening. We get into: ✔️ Why unexplained infertility often just means the full picture was never tested ✔️ The gut-vaginal-uterine microbiome connection most doctors never look at ✔️ Simple, modifiable habits (even sauna and hot tub use) that can affect sperm health ✔️ Why "normal" lab ranges aren't the same as optimal for fertility ✔️ The one morning habit Dr. Wood says makes the biggest difference for her clients ✔️ How coming off birth control can leave your body needing real time to recover If you've ever felt dismissed with "you're healthy, just keep trying," start here. Topics Covered: Why so many fertility journeys start with no support Welcoming Dr. Katie Wood Her path from retail pharmacy to fertility coaching The problem with waiting a full year to test Why a year (or six months) is too long to wait The foundational pillars every couple should check first Getting into unexplained infertility Why "unexplained infertility" isn't really a diagnosis The vaginal microbiome's role in conception Why gut health is so connected to fertility The number one morning habit for fertility Sunlight, sleep, and remineralized water Where to find Dr. Katie Wood Dr. Katie Wood's Links Instagram: @the_wellness_pharmacist Website: happynourishedmotherhood.com Free quiz: The Ultimate Fertility Blueprint Hit Subscribe or Follow so you never miss an episode.

  Beyond the Probiotic: Rebuilding Your Gut's Microbial Ecosystem with Dr. Oscar Coetzee

  Aug 25, 202649 min

  Most people have taken a probiotic at some point and have also heard conflicting information about whether it actually works. Dr. Naylor talks with Dr. Oscar Kotze from the clinical education and functional nutrition team at Designs for Health to unpack what's really going on with probiotics, prebiotics, and the handful of "keystone" bacteria that hold your gut microbiome together. We get into: ✔️ Why most probiotics are transient and don't actually repopulate your gut ✔️ What keystone bacteria are and why losing them collapses the whole system ✔️ Why some strains have to come from a human donor, not fermented food ✔️ The truth about Akkermansia, GLP-1, and whether it works alone ✔️ Early warning signs your microbiome needs support ✔️ Why food alone often isn't enough to fix a depleted gut If you've ever wondered whether you're wasting your money on probiotics, start here. Topics Covered: Why probiotics feel so confusing right now Dr. Kotze's path into the microbiome The real gap in probiotic and prebiotic advice Why most probiotics don't stick around What "keystone bacteria" means Why some strains must come from a human donor Why these microbes work as a team What happened when researchers boosted keystone strains The gut as factory: what happens when workers call in sick Why a totally "clean" gut isn't the goal What ancestral diets reveal about our guts today The truth about Akkermansia working alone The compensation effect between strains What's linked to Crohn's, colorectal cancer, and depression Why a functional stool test is worth it yearly Early warning signs your microbiome needs support The data: 65% of tested people are low in these strains Why opportunistic bacteria ("weeds") aren't the enemy The myth that food alone can rebuild a depleted gut Where to find Dr. Kotze and Designs for Health Dr. Oscar Kotze's Links Website: www.designsforhealth.com Email: okotze@designsforhealth.com Hit Subscribe or Follow so you never miss an episode.
