This episode breaks the silence around erectile dysfunction (ED), encouraging open, honest discussion and a deeper look beyond the surface symptom. Instead of seeing ED as simply a “penis problem” or an inevitable part of aging, Christine explores it as a functional symptom—a red flag signaling deeper health imbalances.

In this episode, Christine dives into the powerful yet little-known HTMA (Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis) test—a non-invasive tool that offers deep insights into your body’s mineral balance and cellular function. Unlike blood tests, HTMA provides a 3-month snapshot of your mineral activity and can uncover hidden causes behind fatigue, burnout, thyroid issues, mood disorders, and more. The episode explains what the test is, why it's so valuable, how it works, and how to properly collect a sample. With real-life examples and expert interpretation, HTMA is presented as a foundational tool for anyone struggling with chronic symptoms despite “normal” blood work.

SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth) is a gut condition where bacteria migrate from the large intestine to the small intestine, leading to bloating, gas, fatigue, and digestive issues. It’s often misdiagnosed as IBS, but a simple breath test can detect it. Causes include low stomach acid, slow gut motility, food poisoning, stress, antibiotic overuse, and structural issues. Treatment requires a functional naturopathic approach to restore gut balance.
