In this latest episode of the Functional Nutrition Podcast, I dive into essential strategies for stabilizing blood sugar and how it affects every aspect of your health, from energy levels to brain function.
In this episode, I am interviewed by Dr. Debbie Ozment from the Vitality Made Simple podcast, and I explain why blood sugar imbalances lead to inflammation and how a balanced diet can help regulate your body’s systems.

The Power of Castor Oil for Detox and Lymphatic Health
But that’s not all—I also share my expert insights on the powerful benefits of castor oil, a time-tested natural remedy.
From promoting lymphatic flow and bile movement to aiding in detoxification, castor oil supports your body’s cleansing processes. I will give you practical tips on how to use it topically for maximum results.

Brain Exercises to Reduce Fog and Boost Mental Clarity
Lastly, the episode touches on simple brain exercises that can reduce brain fog and boost neuroplasticity. Here I will explain how easy, everyday movements can enhance circulation to the brain, improve mental clarity, and even support long-term cognitive function.
