  • Episode 107: The Food Pyramid to Braces - How Diet Shapes Our Jaw Development
    Jan 27 2026
    For decades, the U.S. food pyramid shaped how Americans ate, emphasizing carbs, avoiding fats, and largely ignoring food quality and texture. Today, that model has been replaced with a more balanced approach, but there’s still an important piece of the nutrition conversation missing. In this episode, we explore the shift from the old food pyramid to the modern plate model... and then dive into a lesser-known consequence of modern diets: the loss of chewing and how it is leading to more orthodontic interventions. As ultra-processed, soft foods have become the norm, children are chewing less than ever during critical growth years. Emerging research in orthodontics, dentistry, and anthropology suggests this may contribute to underdeveloped jaws, narrow dental arches, crowded teeth, poor tongue posture, and even smaller airways, with potential impacts on breathing and sleep. This episode connects nutrition, development, and airway health, and asks a bigger question:

    Are modern diets feeding growth or limiting it?
    🎙️ Listen in for a fresh perspective on food, form, and function.

  • Episode 104: The Real Causes of IBD (Chrons & Colitis)
    Jan 12 2026
    Inflammatory Bowel Disease is often explained as a “gut issue” or something managed solely with immune-suppressing medications. But the science tells a much deeper story. In this episode of Wholistic Living, we break down what actually drives IBD at the immune, genetic, and microbial level, including mechanisms that are rarely discussed in conventional care.

    You’ll learn:
    • Why certain genetic SNPs (like NOD2, ATG16L1, IL23R, CARD9, and FUT2) make some people far more susceptible to chronic gut inflammation
    • How loss of key probiotic strains and microbial metabolites can lock the immune system into an inflammatory loop
    • The emerging role of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and the gut virome in worsening disease severity
    • Why fungi, oral bacteria, and barrier dysfunction matter far more than most people realize How IBD progresses beyond simple flare-and-remission cycles

    This episode connects cutting-edge immunology research with real-world clinical insight to help you understand why IBD behaves the way it does, and why a one-size-fits-all approach rarely works. If you or someone you love is navigating Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis, this conversation will change how you think about inflammation, gut health, and personalized healing.
