Episode 42 Show Notes

I’m excited to wrap up this season with a fun Q&A style episode, answering questions submitted by my Instagram community. I dive into a variety of topics like the very controversial GLP-1 (semaglutide) peptides (like what they actually are and what to consider if you are planning to take them), how using a vibrator can affect your hormones, why regular consumption of nuts + other omega-6 fatty acids IS impacting your gut health, the very popular Happy Juice, and more.

I love getting to dig into so many fascinating topics on the podcast, and I hope all of it is helpful for you as you’re navigating your health and wellness journey. I’m so grateful you are here, and I would truly appreciate it if you left a positive review, wherever you listen to the show. Can’t wait to be back with you again very soon!!

Hey, I'm Margaret

I'm a Certified Holistic Nutritionist + Holistic Health Coach, Functional Diagnostic Nutritionist and owner of an integrative virtual wellness clinic that has helped hundreds of women on their journey to optimal health.

I know from my own personal health journey that it's possible to reclaim my body after years of struggling. I was confused and overwhelmed, dismissed by health providers who didn't take the time to understand the "why" behind my symptoms. Then I discovered Functional Nutrition and worked through the process of unraveling the root causes behind my struggles, everything changed.

Now I'm here to help you do the same!
