243: Today’s episode is a deep dive into my latest obsession: methylene blue. Oh yes, you heard me right. I’ve been using it to fight off UTIs (it works wonders!) and trust me, it’s not just any supplement. Methylene blue is a potent antifungal, antiviral, and antibacterial powerhouse that’s been around since the late 1800s. It’s a brain booster, improving memory, focus, and mood. It’s even being explored as a possible treatment for malaria and other infections. And, drumroll please… it’s got serious anti-aging effects too! We’re talking mitochondria, energy, and slowing down the aging process. I’ll break it all down for you: how it works in the brain, the anti-aging potential, and of course, the side effects (gotta keep it real). If you’ve been looking for something to support your health in 2025, you’re going to want to tune in. Oh, and if you’ve been hearing me rave about my blue tongue on Instagram? That’s all part of my methylene blue journey. Trust me, it's more than just a funky color. Topics Discussed: The surprising benefits of methylene blue Brain booster: memory, focus, and mood Anti-aging effects and mitochondrial support How methylene blue fights infections and promotes neuroprotection Potential side effects and safe usage tips As always, if you have any questions for the show please email us at [email protected]. And if you like this show, please share it, rate it, review it and subscribe to it on your favorite podcast app. Sponsored By: SuppCo SuppCo100% FREE access by going to supp.co/DIGEST Pique Tea piquelife.com/digest for up to 15% OFF and freebies Check Out Bethany: Bethany’s Instagram: @lilsipper YouTube Bethany’s Website Discounts & My Favorite Products My Digestive Support Protein Powder Gut Reset Book Get my Newsletters (Friday Finds)

242: If you have breast cancer, know someone who does, if it runs in your family, or perhaps you or someone you know has already gone through breast cancer treatment, this episode is one to save and definitely listen to. Breast cancer affects EVERYONE—not just the person who has it. Because if we don’t have it, we most likely know someone who does or will. It’s not something to take lightly, and sadly, there’s a lot of misinformation out there about treatment and detection. That’s why I have Dr. Jenn Simmons on the show today. She exposes and explains why mammograms can actually increase your risk of getting breast cancer, why soy doesn’t contribute to breast cancer, the connection between birth control and breast cancer, whether HRT is harmful or helpful, and the types of HRT we should be getting after breast cancer treatment. We also cover alternative options for mammograms. Plus, we go into how to do a self-examination, why every woman, young and old, should be doing this monthly, and the right time to examine yourself—because that matters too! This might be one of the most important podcast episodes you’ll ever listen to. Topics Discussed: Are mammograms causing cancer? How to detect breast cancer without radiation Do underwire bras contribute to breast cancer? Do mastectomies actually prevent you from getting breast cancer? What we’re getting wrong when it comes to breast cancer detection How to examine your own breasts Things women are doing that increase our risk for breast cancer and how to minimize that risk HRT myths Soy and breast cancer myths Caring for yourself or others AFTER breast cancer treatment IVF and hormonal birth control Stress and its link to breast cancer Becoming empowered As always, if you have any questions for the show please email us at [email protected]. And if you like this show, please share it, rate it, review it and subscribe to it on your favorite podcast app. Sponsored By: Manukora Head to MANUKORA.com/DIGEST to get $25 off the Starter Kit Equip Foods Code DIGEST gets you 20% off at Equipfoods.com/digest Fatty15 For 15% off the starter kit go to fatty15.com/digest Our Place Go to fromourplace.com and use code DIGEST for 10% Connect with Dr. Jenn Simmons Go to Auria.care & use code DRJENN20 Website Instagram Podcast YouTube Get her book Check Out Bethany: Bethany’s Instagram: @lilsipper YouTube Bethany’s Website Discounts & My Favorite Products My Digestive Support Protein Powder Gut Reset Book Get my Newsletters (Friday Finds)

240: If you are thinking about quitting alcohol or perhaps you just did Dry January and are considering "what now"? - this is the episode for you! Today I have Amanda Kudo on the show and she shares her own personal story about quitting alcohol when she never really was an alcoholic to begin with, but she experienced so many health benefits including not having "crunchy muscles" (and we'll get into what she means by that), more energy, weight loss, better sleep, clearer skins, and so much, more. Amanda was only drinking socially on the weekends but she still wasn't feeling well which led her on her journey to cut out alcohol and experience physical and emotional freedom and how you can too. Even if you yourself don't drink, I'm sure you know someone that does....perhaps it's your partner, friend, child, or parent. This episode teaches you how to encourage those around you to take a break from drinking and methods and tips to go about that without being "annoying" or like you are stepping over your boundaries. We also talk about some really interesting non-alcoholic drinks on the market including dealcoholized wine and I share my favorite go-to alcohol free store bought drink as well. So if you're sober curious, grab a drink (alcohol free of course) and tune in and walk away with empowering tips and tricks to living less inflamed, more empowered, and mentally ready to experience a non-alcohol way of life. Topics Discussed: What crunchy muscles means Non-alcoholic drinks on the market (and my fav!) How EVEN social drinking can be hindering your health goals Tips to stop drinking Tips to help someone you know try to quit drinking The parent, child relationship between alcohol in the home Alternatives coping methods instead of drinking Why and what YOUR reason is for not drinking As always, if you have any questions for the show please email us at [email protected]. And if you like this show, please share it, rate it, review it and subscribe to it on your favorite podcast app. Sponsored By: Black Lotus Shilajit Go to https://blacklotusshilajit.com/discount/Digest 15% will be automatically applied at checkout!

Have you heard of the gut circadian rhythm? We often talk about our overall circadian rhythm, and most of us automatically think about sleep—waking up in the morning and going to bed at night. But did you know your gut has its own circadian rhythm? It affects digestion and may be the key to addressing issues like constipation or weight gain. In today’s episode, I’m joined by Dr. Vincent Pedre, where we dive deep into how to align our metabolism with our circadian rhythm to improve sleep, support regular bowel movements, aid weight loss, and keep hunger cravings in check. We also explore the impact of microplastics—some of their surprising sources—and discuss how stress can contribute to constipation. We touch on how childhood antibiotics may be linked to IBS today, and offer practical ways to reduce the toxic load in our diets and daily lives. Don’t worry, this isn't an episode filled with doom and gloom! We’re here to provide actionable tips and resources to help you improve your health without breaking the bank. My goal is never to fearmonger, but to inform—because when we know better, we can do better. With the right knowledge and tools, we can all lead healthier, happier lives. Topics Discussed: You don’t have to have obvious gut symptoms to have a gut issue Non-gut issues that may actually be gut-related Common causes of constipation Natural ways to relieve constipation Why the timing of your meals matters How timed eating supports constipation relief, weight loss, and IBS The dangers of over-sanitization Microplastics: Beyond just plastic items How stress affects digestion, causing constipation and diarrhea The link between childhood antibiotics and IBS today Simple swaps and changes to reduce our toxic load in daily routines Sponsored By: Manukora Head to MANUKORA.com/DIGEST to get $25 off the Starter Kit SuppCo100% FREE access by going to supp.co/DIGEST. LMNT Get your FREE sample pack with any LMNT purchase at drinklmnt.com/DIGEST Seed Go to seed.com/digest and use code 25digest for 25% off Connect with Dr. Pedre Instagram Website Check Out Bethany: Bethany’s Instagram: @lilsipper YouTube Bethany’s Website Discounts & My Favorite Products My Digestive Support Protein Powder Gut Reset Book Get my Newsletters (Friday Finds) As always, if you have any questions for the show please email us at [email protected]. And if you like this show, please share it, rate it, review it and subscribe to it on your favorite podcast app.

228: This episode is different from most as Dr. Austin Lake and I discuss how the feminist movement perhaps does more harm than good to women's health and WHY women are more prone to autoimmune diseases. We get into the nitty gritty of how our society has driven women into becoming the perfect storm in accumulating more stress and responsibilities than men and the domino effect that plays in our overall health as families. Dr. Austin and I also dive into our own faith and how that has been super important in our own lives and the question of "Why does God not heal us even if we have been praying for healing for years?" - the answer to this may not be definite, but it sure brings hope to those looking for healing and relief especially if you are a believer....but even if you're not, our conversation went beyond our faith as we also dove into if coffee was a friend or foe (especially for women), if fasting is healthy, how we can avoid toxins recirculating in our body, ideas to help you save money all while saving your health. We went in all directions in our conversations and you will get a bite of everything in this episode, so I hope you listen all the way through because I have no doubt every person that does will get something out of it they can take away and apply to their own lives. Topics Discussed: Why women have more health issues than men Saving money while prioritizing your health Why God doesn't heal us even when we have prayed for healing The importance of slowing down How society has made our health worse How coffee can be our friend Fasting (good or bad?)

In this episode, we not only discuss why you're experiencing unexplained, mysterious symptoms that no doctor can pinpoint, but I also share my own health struggles that I've been dealing with since 2020—struggles I haven't shared much about on Instagram or other social platforms. There seems to be a HUGE link between people who had COVID, like I did back in 2020, and current health issues that either haven’t gone away or only seem to flare up intermittently. If you've been dealing with symptoms like exercise intolerance, a racing heartbeat, anxiety that comes out of nowhere (even when you know you're not fearful or anxious about anything), insomnia, waking up to pee 3-5 times during the night, or symptoms of a UTI but the tests always come back negative, then keep listening. These side effects and reactions are just a few of the many random, mysterious issues that could be linked to histamine intolerance, which is also tied to COVID. I speak with Michelle Shapiro, who explains in more detail what histamine intolerance is, which foods and wellness routines trigger it (such as exercise, vitamin C IVs, drinking bone broth, and other popular “wellness regimens” many of us do) that could actually be hindering your health and causing these so-called “flare-ups.” We discuss why these symptoms may come and go in flares, and why some days or months we feel fine, but then suddenly experience a loss of energy, skin rashes, and chronic gut issues that last for weeks. Speaking of gut issues—if you feel like your digestion has never been the same since you had COVID, there could be a connection. Michelle breaks it all down and explains how we can take steps to get our lives back. There’s good news, though! Please save this episode to reference later, share it with a friend or family member, and post it on social media so others can benefit from listening. Topics and Issues Covered: - Long COVID (people are STILL suffering!) - Symptoms of histamine intolerance, such as:   - Increased heart rate   - Frequent urination   - UTI-like symptoms without a UTI   - Gastrointestinal issues   - Insomnia   - Joint pain   - Anxiety (even though you’re not anxious)   - Unexplained symptoms - Mysterious symptoms that no doctor can pinpoint - POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome) - How wellness routines may actually be causing a “flare” - Foods to avoid if you have MCAS (Mast Cell Activation Syndrome) - Supplements that may irritate MCAS - Supplements that help with MCAS (histamine intolerance) - How to get tested for histamine intolerance / types of tests - What causes histamine intolerance - The connection between long COVID, mold, and histamine intolerance - How to heal and get your life back! As always, if you have any questions for the show please email us at [email protected]. And if you like this show, please share it, rate it, review it and subscribe to it on your favorite podcast app. Sponsored By: Manukora Head to MANUKORA.com/DIGEST to get $25 off the Starter Kit Fatty15 For 15% off the starter kit go to fatty15.com/digest Pique Tea piquelife.com/digest for up to 15% OFF and freebies Nuzest Go to nuzest-usa.com/bethanyspantry Check Out Bethany: Bethany’s Instagram: @lilsipper YouTube Bethany’s Website My Digestive Support Protein Powder Gut Reset Book Get my Newsletters (Friday Finds)

For anyone trying to conceive now, planning to in the next year or two, or even considering having kids in 5 or 10 years, or perhaps you're over 40 and have lost hope in having children—this episode is exactly for you! So basically, if you're a woman, this episode is a must-listen. In today’s interview, I sit down with Ronit and Vida, best friends and the co-founders of WeNatal, a prenatal supplement designed not only for women but also for their male partners.  We bust a lot of myths about fertility, such as improving egg quality, the misconception that fertility is only a woman’s issue, conceiving after 40, and even how some "health routines" may actually be hindering egg and sperm quality and count. Many people don’t realize that practices like saunas, cold plunges, and even something as simple as touching receipts could make it more difficult to conceive.  We also discuss what to avoid when trying to get pregnant, as well as foods to consume and other things to implement to support conception and a growing baby. Most importantly, this episode truly empowers and gives hope to any couple trying to conceive—whether later in life or after several miscarriages. So many women feel alone in this journey and struggle to figure things out, and this interview could be the podcast episode that helps turn things around for you. I hope you enjoy it and that it brings some light to your day and life.  Topics Covered: - Misconceptions about infertility  - Egg and sperm myths  - Conceiving after 40  - The decline in fertility rates  - Common factors inhibiting fertility and what to avoid  - What to consume for optimal egg quality  - Lifestyle factors that help and harm fertility  - What men SHOULD and SHOULD NOT be doing to help fertility  - Miscarriages  - Ways to increase egg quality  - Drinking raw milk, runny egg yolk, and eating sushi while pregnant  - When we should start taking a prenatal if we plan on getting pregnant in the future  - When to STOP taking a prenatal after birth  - Postpartum depression links  - Why we need prenatals even if we are eating a nutrient-dense diet  - Specific things to look for when choosing a prenatal  - What to avoid in prenatals  As always, if you have any questions for the show, please email us at [email protected].

219: We can go three weeks without food, three days without water, but only three minutes without air. If you care about the food you eat, the water you drink, and the personal care products you use, then you should also care about the air you breathe and how air quality affects your health in more ways than you might think! Everything from your immune system, digestive health, skin health, allergies, and even sleep can be influenced by the air we breathe. It can either improve these issues or make them worse. Today, we’re going to discuss how to improve our air quality, even without fancy or expensive solutions. I’m joined by Mike Feldstein, the inventor of Jaspr. Mike previously worked in the mold abatement and fire restoration industry, where he saw a huge lack of options for families trying to live cleaner and healthier lives after being exposed to mold and natural disasters. He set out on a journey to create something that was not only effective but also beautiful, and he is making waves in the hotel and school industries, as well as in our personal homes. Click here for a discount (for a limited time only) Topics Discussed: Symptoms from unhealthy air Why air quality matters Mold—We All Have It Where dust actually comes from How cooking pollutes the air Why removing all toxic chemicals from the home doesn’t mean you’ve cleansed the air Staying indoors Being outdoors Tips for having cleaner air without investing in an air purifier Creating a clean space for a baby’s room Hotel rooms Rugs Limiting exposure to mycotoxins What purifiers don’t work How Jaspr actually works As always, if you have any questions for the show please email us at [email protected]. And if you like this show, please share it, rate it, review it and subscribe to it on your favorite podcast app. Sponsored By: Jaspr - Click here for a discount (for a limited time only) Check Out Bethany: Bethany’s Instagram: @lilsipper YouTube Bethany’s Website Discounts & My Favorite Products My Digestive Support Protein Powder Gut Reset Book Get my Newsletters (Friday Finds)

216: Can fasting help or harm a woman? Is time-restricted eating the same as fasting, or is it different? These topics are quite controversial, and we dissect them all in today’s interview with Mindy Pelz, author of Fast Like a Girl and her newest book, Eat Like a Girl. If you are trying to conceive, have your period, or are working to get it back and regulate your hormones, fasting could be the key to unlocking your goals. Mindy discusses the RIGHT way to fast because women should not be fasting like men. We dive into how to do it properly and what foods to eat during different times of the month. For those who are postmenopausal or in perimenopause, we talk about how fasting can also be beneficial during these stages of life. We explore the positive effects fasting can have on gut health, IBS, candida, SIBO, leaky gut, metabolic disorders, neurodegenerative diseases, and even diabetes, which is a common misconception for those with type one and type two diabetes. We also discuss whether teenagers should be fasting and at what age women should begin fasting for their health. Fasting is not only the hot topic of today’s interview; the way we break a fast and our first meal coming off a fast is just as important. The first meal is not a one-size-fits-all solution, so Mindy breaks it down and shares insights about the different foods we should be consuming, seed cycling, and so much more! Topics Discussed: Should women fast? Can fasting help regulate hormones? Can not fasting harm gut health? Are low-carb diets harming women's health? Should women going through menopause practice intermittent fasting? At what age is it appropriate to begin fasting? Infertility and fasting Foods to eat during certain times of fasting How to fast during your cycle How to break a fast (foods to eat!) Benefits of fasting for gut health, IBS, SIBO, and leaky gut Time-restricted eating vs. fasting Fasting for perimenopausal and menopausal women Myths about keto, low carb, and fasting for women Fasting myths for diabetics How the body detoxes when fasting Who shouldn’t fast As always, if you have any questions for the show please email us at [email protected]. And if you like this show, please share it, rate it, review it and subscribe to it on your favorite podcast app. Sponsored By: Equip Foods Code DIGEST gets you 20% off at Equipfoods.com/digest Fatty15 For 15% off the starter kit go to fatty15.com/digest Pique Tea piquelife.com/digest for up to 15% OFF and freebies AquaTru Go to AquaTru.com enter code: DIGEST at checkout for 20% off Connect with Dr. Mindy Pelz Website Instagram YouTube Books Check Out Bethany: Bethany’s Instagram: @lilsipper YouTube Bethany’s Website My Digestive Support Protein Powder Gut Reset Book Get my Newsletters (Friday Finds)

Can fasting help or harm a woman? Is time-restricted eating the same as fasting, or is it different? These topics are quite controversial, and we dissect them all in today’s interview with Mindy Pelz, author of Fast Like a Girl and her newest book, Eat Like a Girl. If you are trying to conceive, have your period, or are working to get it back and regulate your hormones, fasting could be the key to unlocking your goals.

214: Every single woman needs to listen to this episode....and I don't say that lightly! Today I am talking with Dr. Lorraine Maita who specializes in hormone replacement therapy and we discuss the reasons why women should go on HRT, such as not only helping bone loss but actually reversing it, perimenopause, menopause, helping you get pregnant and carry a child to term, and what hormones do for our body beyond, reproduction such as sleep, depression, and even digestion. We also talk about the best ways to get your hormones tested because blood just isn't enough to measure. Even the methods to take estrogen are important and taking the pill is actually not recommended, so we talk about the safest ways to do that and if there are any risks involved in hormone replacement therapy. I know there's a lot of stigma around it especially when it comes to breast cancer, so we get into that as well. Whether you are 20 or 80 years old, you need to be informed in what we discuss in this episode and it can certainly help every single person who listens, I can guarantee that. Topics Discussed: What HRT and BHRT is How HRT can help with bone loss How HRT can help with menopause HRT and pregnancy Symptoms of low hormones Common myths about HRT including breast cancer concerns How to take HRT When to take HRT Patches, Pills, and Cream (and which ones are best and which ones we should avoid) How to get your hormones tested and the best methods Why we should not stop HRT cold turkey Side effects from HRT Who should NOT be taking HRT As always, if you have any questions for the show please email us at [email protected]. And if you like this show, please share it, rate it, review it and subscribe to it on your favorite podcast app. Sponsored By: LMNT Get your FREE sample pack with any LMNT purchase at drinklmnt.com/DIGEST Manukora Head to MANUKORA.com/DIGEST to get $25 off the Starter Kit Equip Foods Code DIGEST gets you 20% off at Equipfoods.com/digest Check Out Lorraine: Feel Good Again Institute Vibrance For Life Instagram Facebook Linked In Check Out Bethany: Bethany’s Instagram: @lilsipper YouTube Bethany’s Website My Digestive Support Protein Powder Gut Reset Book Get my Newsletters (Friday Finds)
