#309 The 3 Dietary Mistakes Keeping HPV Positive (And What to Do Instead)
How Humans Heal
Welcome to How Humans Heal. In this episode, I'm going to talk about three things not to do if you want to clear HPV to negative and prevent it from causing abnormal cells. I know how frustrating it is to find out you're testing positive for HPV, and especially if you've already had a treatment to remove abnormal cells and they keep coming back. The problem is that medical procedures remove the abnormal cells but don't remove the HPV virus. So the virus keeps causing abnormal cells, and you feel stuck in a cycle of biopsies and procedures, wondering when it will ever end. I talk to women from...

info_outlineHi and welcome to How Humans Heal. I'm Dr. Doni Wilson, and in today's episode, I'm looking forward to introducing you to Nagina Abdullah. She's a weight loss coach for women in midlife and founder of the website MasalaBody.com. She helps women improve and boost their metabolism naturally. This is important because so many women have questions around metabolism and body weight, especially in midlife.
I first met Nagina in a hot tub at a conference. It was like friends at first sight. We discovered that we both have backgrounds in science. I studied science for my bachelor's degree as well, so I totally get her background of studying cell biology and biochemistry. She took that science background and found ways to translate the science of the body to help women with their weight and metabolism.
I'm so grateful for Nagina sharing all this with us as a starting point so you can start experimenting with these tips. We know there are so many reasons to be at a healthy weight. Part is how we feel, but at a healthier weight, we're preventing other health issues. We'll prevent cancer, diabetes, heart disease, and dementia. It's a lifestyle of eating in a way that helps us feel good in our body today and in our clothes but also helps our health going forward.
We’re here to help you!
