Description: EP. #21 WTF IS A VAGUS NERVE? - plus how to test your gut for pathogens & overgrowths 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 Just like me, Dr. Stephanie’s path into Functional Medicine began when her health started to decline early into her Chiropractic career. Although she had always been sensitive as a child, things started to really accelerate...I’m talking chunks of hair falling out, waking up with one side of her face drooping, even being told that she was at risk of Multiple Sclerosis. Or as she tells it, her gut just started falling apart. Yikes. It got so bad that she started passing blood – which is when she finally took her healing in her own hands. Ever since getting COVID from my dad, gut health has been top of mind, so this episode comes at the perfect time. I’m back on my probiotics (daily) and working through some pathogenic overgrowths (including Candida) that may actually be contributing to my recent neck pain! I’m telling you, it’s all frickin’ connected. Luckily, Dr. Stephanie Canestraro is here to bless us with some juicy tips on how to improve and maintain your gut health, as well as how to test for and recognize the tricky pathogens that can opportunistically overgrow given the proper circumstances (hello, stress of 2020!).
