That Naturopathic Podcast
Your doctor tells you “you’re normal, you’re fine,” or “this medication will solve the problem.” But, there’s a problem with the solution, because you don’t feel “fine” and part of you knows that there must be another way to look at “the problem”. Your health deserves a 2nd opinion. Join Dr. David Miller, Dr. Michelle Pobega, and other ND’s with the smarts and hearts to help you rethink medicine and take informed action on your health.

If you are experiencing recurring infections that require multiple antibiotic interventions, it should make us give pause to the state of our microbiome.

SIBO is a framework, a perspective, a piece of the puzzle in many cases of gastrointestinal disorders that many proactive and health-savvy patients know quite a bit about. From the integrative clinician's perspective, it sounds very 'science-y', has some clear-cut borders, guidelines etc. for assessment and testing and outcomes, and it sounds (maybe a little overly) simple and clear in these respects.

Halitosis, or bad breath, can originate from various sources, primarily driven by volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs) produced by oral bacteria during the putrefaction of food particles. Mouth breathing exacerbates this issue by reducing saliva flow, allowing bacteria to thrive. While oral causes include poor oral hygiene and gum disease, extraoral factors like diet, systemic diseases, and respiratory conditions contribute to the mult...
