How Humans Heal

Today I'm excited to introduce you to Dr. Brandy Cummings, who holds a doctorate in Clinical Nutrition. She's the host of the Resilient Motherhood Summit, which I'm particularly enthusiastic about because she's created this wonderful opportunity to support women who've been dealing with chronic health issues during and after pregnancy. Pregnancy and motherhood is a beautiful and amazing time of women’s life, and it can be extremely stressful and depleting for women. Nutrients can become deficient, and hormones can become imbalanced. This leaves women at risk of many different health issues,...

#250 The 5 Surprising Ways That Menopause Increases Risk of HPV show art #250 The 5 Surprising Ways That Menopause Increases Risk of HPV

How Humans Heal

In this episode, I'm going to be talking about the five reasons that high-risk HPV virus and abnormal pap smears are more common during peri and post-menopause. Many women think that dealing with HPV and abnormal pap smears is primarily a concern for women in their 20s and 30s. While yes, it is a concern for younger women, it's also a significant issue for women over age 35. Age 35 marks the beginning of perimenopause, which means around the time of menopause. Menopause is defined by one year since your last period, with the average age being 51. This means that post-menopause comprises most...

#248 Is Being HIGHLY SENSITIVE Linked to High-Risk HPV and Abnormal PAP Smears? show art #248 Is Being HIGHLY SENSITIVE Linked to High-Risk HPV and Abnormal PAP Smears?

How Humans Heal

Have you wondered if being a highly sensitive person might increase your risk of high-risk HPV and abnormal pap smears? I'm Dr. Doni Wilson, a naturopathic doctor and women's health expert. I help women who test positive for high-risk HPV virus, including women who have abnormal cells on the cervix or in the vagina, to eliminate high-risk HPV so they don't have to continue getting ongoing procedures and potentially develop cancer. Most women find out they're testing positive for high-risk HPV after having a gynecology exam and pap smear. More practitioners are now testing for high-risk HPV at...

How Humans Heal

In this episode I'm going to be talking about my approach to healthcare in general, and specifically women's health and abnormal pap smears. I want you to understand how what I do and the way I approach healthcare is different than what you may have experienced in other practitioners' offices or medical offices. This is a different way of looking at things, a different way of looking at the human body, and a different way of looking at how healing can happen. If you choose to become a patient of mine or work in one of my programs, you'll know this is the way Dr. Doni guides you to heal! LINKS...

#245 What to Do When You Test POSITIVE for HPV? show art #245 What to Do When You Test POSITIVE for HPV?

How Humans Heal

Today I want to talk about where to begin when you get a positive HPV test. A significant change has occurred in how we detect HPV - decades ago, we only discovered HPV once abnormal cells were identified. Now, women are tested for high-risk HPV during routine pap smears, leading to more frequent diagnoses. I believe women are more susceptible to high-risk HPV than ever before. The HPV virus doesn't discriminate by age; I help women from age 20 to 75 and beyond because HPV can affect women at any stage of life. Importantly, even after a hysterectomy, you're not immune - the virus can impact...

#243 7 Reasons to Avoid Gluten to Help Clear HPV show art #243 7 Reasons to Avoid Gluten to Help Clear HPV

How Humans Heal

Today we're going to be talking about the seven reasons I recommend avoiding gluten to help clear the high-risk HPV virus from your body once and for all. I've been an expert in gluten and have specialized in helping patients with it for over 20 years. I was forced to learn about gluten when I was getting severe migraines, and when my daughter developed severe eczema as an infant. I had to understand the role gluten was playing to help heal both myself and my daughter. This led me to research gluten endlessly, reading all available research articles from and speaking at professional...

When do you ever get to hear an OB/GYN say that there’s a way to reverse the effects of menopause?  

 

Well you’re going to hear that, and so much more that is going to surprise and inspire you, in this episode of How Humans Heal where I interview Dr. Anna Cabeca, [@thegirlfrienddoctor].  

 

She shares how she went from being in pain, overweight, and miserable… wondering whether life was worth it… to feeling her healthiest self when she decided to change her diet.  

 

 

Can the food we choose to eat, and when we eat it, really make that much of a difference?  

 

Absolutely!  

 

Dr. Anna has since written several book, including The Hormone Fix, Keto-Green 16, and now she is celebrating the release of her newest book, Menupause.  



In Menupause she lays out 5 different menu plans, with recipes and full-color pictures. The menus are intended to match your needs, whether you are wanting to start with a detox, a plant-based diet, a keto menu, or to carb-up. You could also work your way through each of her 6-day menus and eat your way to health! 

 

 

Menopause (perimenopause to menopause) happens between ages 35 and 55, and is associated with various changes in women’s health, from weight gain, fatigue, sleep issues, hot flashes, and vaginal dryness, to increased risk of diabetes, heart disease and dementia. 

 

Dr. Anna’s mission is to help you put a stop to these health issues and regain your vibrancy and longevity.  

 

If this is speaking to you, be sure to order her book – MenuPause – at the usual book sellers and visit her website, DrAnna.com for support and encouragement.
