#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...

#241 HPV Recovery: The Role of Stress and Emotional Healing!
How Humans Heal
Today, I'm going to be talking about how healing, specifically from high-risk HPV virus, isn't just physical. Your mental and emotional health matters just as much when it comes to fending off HPV and preventing health issues overall. This is such an important topic to me because we're typically taught that our mind and body are separate. We often go to different practitioners for our mental health than for our physical health. However, what research shows us is that there's a profound mind-body connection—there's actually no separation between our mind and body. Our mental and emotional...

#239 How Understanding the Gut Vagina Connection can help you Clear HPV!
How Humans Heal
In this episode I’m going to talk about how diet and gut health play a key role in helping to clear high-risk HPV virus. As a women's health expert and HPV specialist, I've helped thousands of women around the world address abnormal pap smears and get HPV to negative, once and for all. I’ve seen first-hand that helping women to optimize their gut microbiome and to heal leaky gut is a sure path to helping them clear HPV and prevent cervical cancer.

#235 Abnormal Pap Smears: What Your Doctor Isn’t Telling You!
How Humans Heal
Today, I want to share important information about abnormal pap smears that your doctor might not be telling you. When you hear "abnormal pap smear," that's not just one thing. It's a gradation from completely healthy cells to slightly inflamed cells, to more inflamed and maybe abnormal shaped cells where the nucleus is starting to get bigger, gradually looking more and more like a cancer cell. Your doctor is likely NOT telling you that your body can protect yourself from high risk HPV virus types that cause abnormal cells and cancer, even if you are re-exposed to the virus. I am a...
info_outlineAfter growing up with chronic skin issues, my friend Dr. Trevor Cates [@thespadr] healed her skin by taking a holistic approach. And she found herself wondering – “Why wasn’t holistic medicine presented from the beginning?”
This inspired her to become a naturopathic doctor and to specialize in helping people to understand that our skin is actually a magic mirror!
That is to say, our skin is an outer reflection of our overall health. And the way to help our skin is not just by what we put on it, but by balancing from within.
Common skin issues include:
-Eczema
-Acne
-Dry skin
-Aging skin prematurely
-
While so many people and practitioners look at skin as something to cover up, or to use a topical (such as a steroid) to suppress, for Dr. Cates, these symptoms indicate that something is out of balance.
In fact, hormone imbalance is one of the most common causes of skin issues. There are many hormones potentially involved. Not just sex hormones, but also cortisol, thyroid, melatonin, and insulin. Our hormones rule our health in a lot of ways, says Dr. Cates.
-
In this episode, we discuss things you can do to start balancing hormones and healing your skin, including:
-Avoid toxins and fragrance in your personal care products
-Choose organic food
-Get plenty of fiber and nutrients
-Sleep and stress management
-
Dr. Cates reminds us that most of what we put on our skin actually disrupts the pH and microbiome on the skin and contain endocrine disrupting chemicals. On average we use 9 personal care products per day, which can expose us to 126 ingredients that are not well regulated in the U.S.
It is up to us to look for clean products and to make choices to support our health and our skin.
-
This led her to write her first book, Clean Skin from Within, and to create TheSpaDr skincare line. I have used her skincare line since it became available several years ago.
Now Dr. Cates is focused on helping women to balance their hormones by getting more in harmony with our bodies based on the seasons.
She covers how to do this in detail in her new book - Natural Beauty Reset – which is now available for preorder. And Dr. Cates’ also created a docuseries - Hormones, Health and Harmony - which you can sign up for here: https://www.sd44trk.com/9STNLS/2BGSTD/
