Description
I’m here today with Dr. Mindy Pelz, who is such a wealth of information I don’t even really know where to start! Dr. Mindy has built one of the largest natural family wellness clinics in the San Francisco Bay Area. She’s especially knowledgeable on the role of generational toxins on health — a long term that simply means the toxins we pass on to our kids.
Dr. Mindy Pelz on Generational Toxins
It turns out we pass on more to our kids than our eye or hair color. Kids can also inherit mom’s bioaccumulation of toxins and heavy metals from their time in utero. This isn’t something to feel guilty about, but it is a hidden factor to consider when we’re trying to solve any health struggles our kids may have.
Dr. Mindy looks at all aspects of a person’s health using everything from gut repair to functional nutrition testing to heavy metal testing, fasting, supplements, chiropractic care, and even mindfulness. She’s even worked with Olympic and professional athletes!
I know we all wish we had more doctors like her around, so it’s great to get a chance to get some of her great advice on the podcast today.
In This Episode You’ll Learn
the two main areas of toxins we can pass down to our kids … and how it happens
why epigenetics is an area of health we can’t ignore
ways to navigate an increasingly toxic world (and protect our kids)
why families share a microbiome … and how to protect and repair it
easy (and safe) ways to introduce fasting, detoxing, and the ketogenic diet in a family
how to test kids for bacterial diversity and generational toxins
clues that tell whether or not your children might benefit from testing
and more!
