The Hidden Impact of Toxic Exposures on Health: Koral’s Story

This episode is brought to you by Functional Nurse Academy [https://www.functionalnurseacademy.com]  In this episode, I’m joined by functional nurse Koral Worsham, founder of Redeeming Roots Functional Medicine. We discuss how Koral left conventional medicine after witnessing the gaps in care during her mother’s Parkinson’s journey.  Since launching her own practice, she has helped clients uncover root causes of chronic illness, including one client with severe debilitating neurological symptoms who later discovered he was suffering from biotoxin illness caused by toxic mold exposure in his home. After leaving the environment and supporting detoxification and healing, he regained nearly 80% of his quality of life. We also dive into how toxic exposures such as mold, pesticides, heavy metals, and endocrine-disrupting chemicals can impact health, why functional medicine has become increasingly politicized, and how nurses can responsibly practice functional medicine within their nursing scope.  Koral's Practice: https://redeemingrootswellness.com/ [https://redeemingrootswellness.com/] Offers: $100 off any wellness package  Complimentary Discovery call Functional medicine training for nurses: * Interested in becoming a functional medicine nurse?  Join Melissa live at the next webinar www.functionalnurseacademy.com/webinar-registration [https://www.functionalnurseacademy.com/webinar-registration] * Learn more about the Functional Nurse Academy https://www.functionalnurseacademy.com [https://www.functionalnurseacademy.com/] Functional medicine training for all other healthcare specialties and health and wellness coaches: * https://www.christianfma.com [https://www.christianfma.com/] This show is also syndicated every Tuesday at 10am EST on The Nurses Report on America Out Loud Talk Radio [https://www.americaoutloud.news/category/podcasts/nurses-out-loud/]

Lyme Disease and Chronic Fatigue: Connecting the Dots

This episode is brought to you by Functional Nurse Academy [https://www.functionalnurseacademy.com] An often overlooked cause of chronic fatigue is chronic Lyme disease—a complex condition that is frequently missed in conventional medicine. Approximately 2.5 million Americans suffer from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), yet the traditional medical model rarely investigates underlying causes, focusing instead on symptom management with medications that do not address why patients are unwell. In this episode, I share my personal journey of overcoming chronic fatigue syndrome through a functional medicine approach that addressed underlying chronic Lyme disease.  I also discuss ongoing concerns surrounding guidance from organizations such as the CDC and how current diagnostic and treatment frameworks for Lyme disease can contribute to missed diagnoses and inadequate treatment.  Functional medicine training for nurses: * Interested in becoming a functional medicine nurse?  Join Melissa live at the next webinar www.functionalnurseacademy.com/webinar-registration [https://www.functionalnurseacademy.com/webinar-registration] * Learn more about the Functional Nurse Academy https://www.functionalnurseacademy.com [https://www.functionalnurseacademy.com/] Functional medicine training for all other healthcare specialties and health and wellness coaches: * https://www.christianfma.com [https://www.christianfma.com/] This show is also syndicated every Tuesday at 10am EST on The Nurses Report on America Out Loud Talk Radio [https://www.americaoutloud.news/category/podcasts/nurses-out-loud/]
