#207 Navigating Abnormal Pap Smear Results: A Comprehensive Guide to Healing HPV Naturally
How Humans Heal
In this episode, I'm going to be talking about what to do if and when you receive abnormal pap smear results. That's because so many women contact me saying, "I just got back my pap smear results, and it's showing abnormal. It's showing HPV detected, and now I'm in such a state of fear, confusion, anxiety, and stress about this. What do I do?" Oftentimes, your doctor may not explain to you what the results mean or what your options are. So, I'm hoping you're finding this video, and that it will help you to take a deep breath and start to make a plan of action for addressing the abnormal...

#206 Metabolic Inflexibility and Weight Loss: Risks of New Drugs vs. Holistic Solutions with Märcelle Pick
How Humans Heal
In this episode, I'm really looking forward to introducing you to Märcelle Pick, a functional medicine practitioner and nurse practitioner who has specialized in women's health since 1983. She's written books related to women's health, adrenal health, as well as weight and nutrition. She's here to talk with us about the risks of using GLP-1 agonist medications for weight loss. Märcelle has a lot of concerns about these medications because they are so new and not well understood, and they're not addressing the underlying cause of weight gain, which is metabolic inflexibility. I feel this is...

#205 LEEP vs Escharotic Treatment for CIN2 and CIN3 Cervical Dysplasia
How Humans Heal
In this episode, I discuss cervical dysplasia, which is when there are abnormal cells on the cervix before it turns into cancer, specifically CIN 2 and 3. Many women in this situation face the decision of whether to have a LEEP procedure or to take a natural approach called escharotic treatments. If you're dealing with this decision, I think this video will be very helpful for you. It will also be useful for any women dealing with high-risk HPV and abnormal pap smears, in case you find yourself facing CIN 2 or 3 at some point. For the most comprehensive support, even with the most...

#204 Solving Chronic Fatigue: A Naturopathic Approach to Restoring Energy with Dr. Jenny Tufenkian
How Humans Heal
In this episode, I'm excited to introduce you to Dr. Jenny Tufenkian. She is a naturopathic physician from the Pacific Northwest but she's helping people around the world with fatigue and particularly with long COVID type fatigue symptoms. It's always so wonderful to get to connect with another naturopathic doctor and to share more about naturopathic medicine and how we think about health issues. I find that fatigue is one of the most common symptoms for people to have. The thing about it is there's a lot of possible underlying causes. The important thing to know is that healing is...

#203 The 6 Connections Between HPV and Menstrual Health Issues
How Humans Heal
In this episode, I'm going to be talking about menstrual related health issues and how they're connected to testing positive for high-risk HPV virus strains. This is a really important conversation because a lot of times when it comes to testing positive for the HPV virus, women are left with not enough information and their doctors are not providing that information. The doctors are doing what they're trained to do, which is important, to address abnormal cells. What's happening, unfortunately, is women are left in a state of fear and not knowing what they can do to prevent...

#201 The 5 Ways HPV and Leaky Gut are Related
How Humans Heal
In this episode I talk about the five ways that HPV and leaky gut are connected. It's not a well known connection, but it is essential to address leaky gut in order to clear HPV and protect yourself from high risk strains of HPV. I want to make sure you understand what leaky gut is and exactly the ways that it's making you susceptible to HPV and how we can then address it. It’s important to address gut health to decrease HPV risk and prevent it from returning. I recommend getting an accurate food sensitivity panel to identify leaky gut severity and foods to avoid to help heal it. We...

#199 Healing HPV Before, During and After Pregnancy
How Humans Heal
In this episode, I want to talk about HPV virus related to fertility, pregnancy, and breastfeeding. It is actually quite common for me, as a naturopathic doctor and midwife, to be helping women who are hoping for pregnancy soon, or might already be pregnant, and then test positive for HPV, and in some cases, abnormal cells. This is such an important time of women’s lives because it is right when they are needing their cervix and uterus to be healthy for a pregnancy. So it can be quite shocking to find out that HPV is present and potentially affecting their ability to get pregnant and...
info_outlineIs it really that important to have optimal cortisol?
Even if your blood work says your cortisol is in the “normal” range?
And even though you don’t have Addison’s disease or Cushing Syndrome?
Yes! I would say a resounding yes based on all the research I’ve read and thousands of patients I’ve helped.
Having optimal cortisol, as well as adrenaline, levels means…
- You’re sending healthy signals throughout your body, instead of stress signals
- You’re decreasing your risk of (over) 90% of health issues
- You’re reversing digestive, immune, hormone and nervous system issues
- You’re shifting your gene expression
- You’re increasing your longevity (years of quality life)
- You’re decreasing emotional and physical pain
- You’re healing from past stress and trauma
Who doesn’t want that?

And yet, it is NOT what you’ll hear at the standard doctor’s appointment. Not even at an appointment with a functional practitioner, because it is not how they are trained to think or what they are trained to guide you to achieve.
That is why I wrote the book Master Your Stress, Reset Your Health.
It’s why I created the free online Stress Type™ Quiz to know where your cortisol level likely is at this point in time – either a bit too high or too low. https://doctordoni.com/quiz/stress-quiz/
The 7-day SelfC.A.R.E. Stress Reset to guide you to understand how stress is affecting you and the essential initial steps to reset your cortisol (and adrenaline) to optimal. https://drdoni.lpages.co/the-7-day-self-care-reset/
As well as the 21-day Stress Remedy Program to help you recover from stress by healing leaky gut and balancing blood sugar levels. https://doctordoni.com/product/the-stress-remedy-21-day-program/
And the Stress Warrior Program – a 10-week group and one-on-one experiential program to guide you to implement my Stress Recovery Protocol and optimize your cortisol and adrenaline. https://drdoni.lpages.co/stress-program/
I wish that…
This approach was the standard of care
That you could order a quick home test to measure your cortisol and adrenaline
That all practitioners understand the use of nutrients and herbs to optimize cortisol and adrenaline
But that simply isn’t the case at this point in time.
So, we are left to pay out of pocket, work with a practitioner (like me) to help you order a urine/saliva test to measure your cortisol and adrenaline, and wait 2 weeks for the results, then work with me – either one-on-one or in a “do it yourself” program (listed above) to help you to optimize your cortisol.
That is currently your best option for getting your cortisol and adrenaline to optimal and resetting your health trajectory.
