Your Body Just Wants To Be In Balance, Is Yours?

Melissa Deally: 00:00:07

Imagine getting up every day full of energy is

Melissa Deally: 00:00:09

if you were in your 20s. Again, what would that be? Like? What

Melissa Deally: 00:00:14

would that be worth to you?

Melissa Deally: 00:00:16

What is your health worth to you? Think about it. Your health

Melissa Deally: 00:00:20

isn't everything. But without it, everything else is nothing.

Melissa Deally: 00:00:24

And yet too many of us are taking it for granted until

Melissa Deally: 00:00:28

something goes wrong. No one wakes up hoping to be diagnosed

Melissa Deally: 00:00:32

with a disease or chronic illness. And yet, we've never

Melissa Deally: 00:00:35

been taught how to be proactive in our health through our school

Melissa Deally: 00:00:38

system, or public health. As a registered health coach and

Melissa Deally: 00:00:42

integrative health practitioner, I believe it is time this

Melissa Deally: 00:00:45

information is made available to everyone. Combining new

Melissa Deally: 00:00:50

knowledge around your health and the ability to do my functional

Melissa Deally: 00:00:53

medicine lab tests in the comfort of your own home will

Melissa Deally: 00:00:57

allow you to optimize your health for today and all your

Melissa Deally: 00:01:00

tomorrow's don't wait for your wake up call.

Melissa Deally: 00:01:07

Welcome back to the don't wait for your wake up call podcast. I

Melissa Deally: 00:01:11

am your host, Melissa daily. Thank you for tuning in and

Melissa Deally: 00:01:15

listening. And this month, the month of March 2022, my focus is

Melissa Deally: 00:01:20

on the power within the power within our own body. Our body

Melissa Deally: 00:01:28

knows, it is never wrong. Sometimes we have imbalances in

Melissa Deally: 00:01:36

the body. And that is what I want to be talking about today.

Melissa Deally: 00:01:40

Because when we tune in to the power within our own body, and

Melissa Deally: 00:01:46

listen, we can truly be working in harmony with our body. So our

Melissa Deally: 00:01:52

body is simply incredible. And yet, many of us take it for

Melissa Deally: 00:01:57

granted day in and day out. We only get one body in this life.

Melissa Deally: 00:02:04

And we need to look after it. If your body is failing you though,

Melissa Deally: 00:02:09

it isn't your fault. There are many things in society today

Melissa Deally: 00:02:13

that are working against you taking care of your body. Well,

Melissa Deally: 00:02:18

that's lack of education in our health and how to be proactive

Melissa Deally: 00:02:24

and better caring for our body, high stress and the demands of

Melissa Deally: 00:02:29

society to you know, work harder, do more the 40 hour work

Melissa Deally: 00:02:34

week, that becomes the 60 hour workweek just based on demands

Melissa Deally: 00:02:37

and workload and expectations of your boss and other superiors.

Melissa Deally: 00:02:43

There's poor nutrition, look at what's offered in the

Melissa Deally: 00:02:46

supermarket shelves, there's so many foods that are nutrient

Melissa Deally: 00:02:51

deplete. And yet because they're in the stores, people buy them,

Melissa Deally: 00:02:56

they're loaded with sugars that are addictive that make us want

Melissa Deally: 00:02:58

more salt does the same thing. And we're not feeding our body

Melissa Deally: 00:03:03

and giving our body what it needs in order to be in a state

Melissa Deally: 00:03:07

of good health. We also have nutrient deplete soils. And so

Melissa Deally: 00:03:11

when the nutrients aren't in the soil, they're not then grown

Melissa Deally: 00:03:14

into the food, and therefore, we're not getting the nutrition

Melissa Deally: 00:03:18

into our body. And I share an example of this over and over

Melissa Deally: 00:03:24

again. But if we just take one food, oranges, and we look at

Melissa Deally: 00:03:29

the nutrient density of an orange back in the 1930s and 40s

Melissa Deally: 00:03:34

to today, we wouldn't need to eat nine oranges today to get

Melissa Deally: 00:03:39

the same nutrient density out of what they got from one orange

Melissa Deally: 00:03:44

back in the 1930s and 40s. And nobody does that there's too

Melissa Deally: 00:03:49

much fiber in that orange, you get full too quickly. But it

Melissa Deally: 00:03:52

goes to show you that if we're not giving our body the

Melissa Deally: 00:03:55

nutrition that it needs, it can't be functioning at the

Melissa Deally: 00:03:58

level that we demand of it. Right. And we also many of us

Melissa Deally: 00:04:04

have grown up with the belief that we don't really have to

Melissa Deally: 00:04:06

look after our bodies because if we get sick, we go to the

Melissa Deally: 00:04:10

doctor, they'll give us a pill and they'll make us better. But

Melissa Deally: 00:04:14

that system is failing us as well because very often that

Melissa Deally: 00:04:17

simply ends in chronic illness, which is our true epidemic in

Melissa Deally: 00:04:22

the world today. Look around you. Everybody knows somebody

Melissa Deally: 00:04:25

with some kind of chronic illness, whether it be heart

Melissa Deally: 00:04:28

disease type two diabetes, leaky gut, autoimmune diseases,

Melissa Deally: 00:04:32

Alzheimer's and dementia, some forms of cancer, obesity, these

Melissa Deally: 00:04:38

are all chronic illnesses. And they're all lifestyle illnesses.

Melissa Deally: 00:04:44

And when we know how to work with our body, we can choose to

Melissa Deally: 00:04:51

not end up in a state of chronic illness. But again, the

Melissa Deally: 00:04:56

education isn't there for you to easily find this information.

Melissa Deally: 00:05:00

and out. When I was in the corporate world, I didn't know

Melissa Deally: 00:05:02

this. I didn't know what I know, today, seven years later. And

Melissa Deally: 00:05:06

when I first started, and taking all of my health coaching

Melissa Deally: 00:05:10

courses, I kept having these aha, as of why didn't I know

Melissa Deally: 00:05:14

that? Why hasn't somebody told me this? How can I be in my 40s,

Melissa Deally: 00:05:19

and never have learned this before. Simply because it's not

Melissa Deally: 00:05:24

taught through our education system is not readily available

Melissa Deally: 00:05:27

through our public health system, we have to choose to

Melissa Deally: 00:05:31

take additional courses, to get the information we need to truly

Melissa Deally: 00:05:36

know how to look after our body. But if that isn't your planned

Melissa Deally: 00:05:41

vocation, or your planned interest at university, etc, you

Melissa Deally: 00:05:46

haven't necessarily taken those extra courses. So that's why I

Melissa Deally: 00:05:50

have this podcast. And that's why I'm here sharing with you

Melissa Deally: 00:05:52

today. Because I truly believe it is so important, as I said,

Melissa Deally: 00:05:57

we have one body, and we need to be looking after it.

Melissa Deally: 00:06:02

And our body really would just like to be in balance. And yet

Melissa Deally: 00:06:06

there are things that we do all day long. From the food we eat,

Melissa Deally: 00:06:10

as I've mentioned, to the stress, we are under to the lack

Melissa Deally: 00:06:12

of sleep, all of these things can create imbalances within our

Melissa Deally: 00:06:16

body. But because it's happening inside where we can't see it, we

Melissa Deally: 00:06:22

don't necessarily know that it's happening. Now our body does try

Melissa Deally: 00:06:27

to let us know it talks to us. And you might have heard me say

Melissa Deally: 00:06:31

this before, that at first, it whispers gently, like the touch

Melissa Deally: 00:06:36

of a feather. And if we don't listen, it might come along and

Melissa Deally: 00:06:40

thump us with a break. And if we still don't listen, watch out

Melissa Deally: 00:06:46

because it might whack us with a wrecking ball. An all of us know

Melissa Deally: 00:06:51

someone who's been whacked with a wrecking ball. Whether it be

Melissa Deally: 00:06:54

you know, they just can't get out of bed one morning, because

Melissa Deally: 00:06:57

their body has said enough is enough, you need to slow down,

Melissa Deally: 00:07:03

and it is time to heal. And I'm going to make sure you slow down

Melissa Deally: 00:07:08

by making you feel so awful, that you can't get out of bed.

Melissa Deally: 00:07:13

Maybe that's someone in a state of burnout. Or maybe it's

Melissa Deally: 00:07:17

somebody that, you know, has a diagnosis of a chronic illness.

Melissa Deally: 00:07:21

They didn't go to bed perfectly healthy, and then wake up the

Melissa Deally: 00:07:25

next morning with a diagnosis that chronic illness has been

Melissa Deally: 00:07:29

building inside their body over weeks, months, and in some

Melissa Deally: 00:07:33

cases, years. And the body has been talking them to them

Melissa Deally: 00:07:38

throughout that time. But we don't slow down enough. We don't

Melissa Deally: 00:07:44

hear the messages. Or perhaps we do hear the messages. But we've

Melissa Deally: 00:07:50

been programmed by society to believe it's just normal aging.

Melissa Deally: 00:07:55

It's my genetics, or seasonal allergies, or whatever other

Melissa Deally: 00:08:00

label we give it to allow ourselves to ignore the messages

Melissa Deally: 00:08:05

and keep going on in our busy lives. Doo doo doo in order to

Melissa Deally: 00:08:09

get everything done that's on our plate. But when we do this,

Melissa Deally: 00:08:15

what happens? The body continues to get more and more out of

Melissa Deally: 00:08:21

balance. And this triggers inflammation that causes cells

Melissa Deally: 00:08:26

to turn on disease. And at some point, we get thumped with a

Melissa Deally: 00:08:31

break or whacked by a wrecking ball. Now, I've talked about

Melissa Deally: 00:08:37

this on previous episodes, but I know not everyone's listened to

Melissa Deally: 00:08:40

every single episode. Although I have had several people reach

Melissa Deally: 00:08:42

out to me recently telling me they have listened to every

Melissa Deally: 00:08:45

single one of my episodes. And thank you to those of you that

Melissa Deally: 00:08:48

are tuning into every episode. I really appreciate that feedback

Melissa Deally: 00:08:52

too. So what I've talked about before is what Hippocrates said

Melissa Deally: 00:08:57

over 2000 years ago, that all disease starts in the gut. So in

Melissa Deally: 00:09:04

starting to pay attention to our body, we need to really be

Melissa Deally: 00:09:08

paying attention to this epicenter of our health. And now

Melissa Deally: 00:09:14

modern day science epigenetics has proven Hippocrates to be

Melissa Deally: 00:09:19

correct. What we now know, with epigenetics is that it is not

Melissa Deally: 00:09:25

just your genes that are a factor in whether you get a

Melissa Deally: 00:09:30

disease or not. We all have genes in our body that

Melissa Deally: 00:09:33

predispose us genetically to certain diseases. But what we

Melissa Deally: 00:09:39

now know is that's only five to 10% of the equation as to

Melissa Deally: 00:09:44

whether you actually get that disease. The other 90 to 95% of

Melissa Deally: 00:09:51

the equation is the lifestyle factors, and the environment you

Melissa Deally: 00:09:57

create inside your body in your gut. And I know these stats can

Melissa Deally: 00:10:03

sound scary. But I like to think of them as empowering is they

Melissa Deally: 00:10:07

mean that in 90 to 95% of the cases of all disease, you have

Melissa Deally: 00:10:13

the choice as to whether you let your cells turn on the genes for

Melissa Deally: 00:10:19

that disease.

Melissa Deally: 00:10:22

Because remember, it's five to 10% of the equation is your

Melissa Deally: 00:10:26

genetic predisposition. And 90 to 95% of the equation is the

Melissa Deally: 00:10:32

environment you choose to create inside your body. That is what

Melissa Deally: 00:10:38

dictates your health outcomes. So you absolutely have the

Melissa Deally: 00:10:43

choice, excuse me, you absolutely have the choice as to

Melissa Deally: 00:10:50

whether your cells turn on the genes for that disease, you

Melissa Deally: 00:10:56

might be genetically predisposed to heart disease, but that

Melissa Deally: 00:10:59

doesn't mean you will get heart disease. Instead, it means you

Melissa Deally: 00:11:04

have a choice to create a body that is imbalanced with normal

Melissa Deally: 00:11:08

levels of inflammation. So your cells never turn on your genes.

Melissa Deally: 00:11:15

And we see that all the time in siblings, right? One sibling

Melissa Deally: 00:11:18

might get the disease that both of their parents had, or their

Melissa Deally: 00:11:22

parents and their grandparents and another sibling might not.

Melissa Deally: 00:11:27

They have very similar genes because they're in the same

Melissa Deally: 00:11:30

family. But maybe their lifestyles are different. And

Melissa Deally: 00:11:34

that is why one ends up with the disease that their parents and

Melissa Deally: 00:11:38

grandparents have had. And the other one doesn't. We see it

Melissa Deally: 00:11:43

even with twins, there's research that shows that. And it

Melissa Deally: 00:11:47

comes down to the lifestyle factors, not the genes. So how

Melissa Deally: 00:11:54

do you ensure that you keep your body in balance and have normal

Melissa Deally: 00:11:59

levels of inflammation rather than chronic inflammation in

Melissa Deally: 00:12:02

your body? Well, it all starts with education, which is, as I

Melissa Deally: 00:12:06

said, Why I offer this podcast? So thank you for listening. And

Melissa Deally: 00:12:11

the reality is, is we don't know what we don't know until we need

Melissa Deally: 00:12:15

to know. But knowledge is power. So what if you could learn about

Melissa Deally: 00:12:19

your health now in order to start to take preventative

Melissa Deally: 00:12:23

action? Well, I presume that's why you're here. And this is

Melissa Deally: 00:12:28

what is unfortunately missing in society, we are not taught how

Melissa Deally: 00:12:31

to take preventative steps in our health. If you however,

Melissa Deally: 00:12:35

recognize that health is your true wealth, or your greatest

Melissa Deally: 00:12:38

asset, then you will want to take care of it. You take care

Melissa Deally: 00:12:42

of your house, don't you cleaning bathrooms and your

Melissa Deally: 00:12:45

kitchen, vacuuming the carpets fixing things that are broken

Melissa Deally: 00:12:48

painting it doing rentals and you take care of your car taking

Melissa Deally: 00:12:52

it for regular services and oil changes. But do you take care of

Melissa Deally: 00:12:56

your body in the same way? Okay, maybe you take a shower every

Melissa Deally: 00:13:02

day. Maybe you exercise every day. And if you exercise

Melissa Deally: 00:13:06

everyday kudos to you but you're still in the minority. What else

Melissa Deally: 00:13:11

are you doing to take care of your body? Do you know your

Melissa Deally: 00:13:15

inflammation levels? Do you know your cortisol levels? Are you

Melissa Deally: 00:13:19

taking care of them keeping them in balance? Do you know your

Melissa Deally: 00:13:22

mineral levels? One of the most common causes of heart disease

Melissa Deally: 00:13:26

is an imbalance in your electrolytes calcium, magnesium,

Melissa Deally: 00:13:30

sodium, potassium. Wouldn't it be nice to know these levels in

Melissa Deally: 00:13:35

order to keep them in balance? Seeing his death by

Melissa Deally: 00:13:38

cardiovascular disease? is the number one cause killer in North

Melissa Deally: 00:13:41

America? Do you know if your hormones are out of balance? Do

Melissa Deally: 00:13:46

you know all for thyroid markers. One in eight women will

Melissa Deally: 00:13:50

get thyroid disease in her life. And yet our medical system only

Melissa Deally: 00:13:53

looks at one marker not all four markers in an annual exam.

Melissa Deally: 00:13:58

Knowing all four markers allows you to see the early warning

Melissa Deally: 00:14:01

signs which allows you to bring the body back into balance more

Melissa Deally: 00:14:06

easily. By the time that one marker shows there's a problem

Melissa Deally: 00:14:10

with the thyroid, the body is far more out of balance and it

Melissa Deally: 00:14:13

takes longer to bring it back into balance. Do you know if

Melissa Deally: 00:14:18

your gut has Candida or bacterial overgrowth, mold,

Melissa Deally: 00:14:21

fungus parasites or H Pylori? Do you struggle with gas or

Melissa Deally: 00:14:25

bloating, acid reflux, constipation or diarrhea? Well,

Melissa Deally: 00:14:29

all of these are signs of an unhappy digestive system, a sign

Melissa Deally: 00:14:33

that the gut is out of balance. And nearly all of my clients

Melissa Deally: 00:14:37

struggle with one or more of these things. And then finally

Melissa Deally: 00:14:42

at a point where they're looking for answers because they're

Melissa Deally: 00:14:45

tired of having to deal with it or not getting answers. And so

Melissa Deally: 00:14:51

this is you know, maybe there that stage between the feather

Melissa Deally: 00:14:53

and the brick, and that's where I love to work with clients

Melissa Deally: 00:14:56

because it's much easier to help the body heal than before.

Melissa Deally: 00:14:59

Already at the wrecking ball stage. It is extremely common

Melissa Deally: 00:15:05

these days for people to be having digestive issues, simply

Melissa Deally: 00:15:09

because of our lifestyle factors that I talked about before. Poor

Melissa Deally: 00:15:12

nutrition, high stress, poor sleep.

Melissa Deally: 00:15:16

Our gut is an entire ecosystem of 40,000 species of bacteria, 5

Melissa Deally: 00:15:22

million species of fungi 300,000 species of parasites. This is

Melissa Deally: 00:15:28

six pounds of living species and over 100 trillion microbes in

Melissa Deally: 00:15:33

our gut or our microbiome. And they're all designed to work in

Melissa Deally: 00:15:39

balance to help break down our food, keep our immune system

Melissa Deally: 00:15:42

strong, fight off pathogens, and live symbiotically within us for

Melissa Deally: 00:15:47

our optimal well being. But as I've said, stress, poor

Melissa Deally: 00:15:52

nutrition, poor sleep, antibiotics, food sensitivities

Melissa Deally: 00:15:56

and intolerances, birth control, anti inflammatory products like

Melissa Deally: 00:16:00

Tylenol and Advil, and more, can create imbalances in our gut. So

Melissa Deally: 00:16:06

using all of these factors over the course of a lifetime, mean

Melissa Deally: 00:16:10

that many, many people in today's world are struggling

Melissa Deally: 00:16:14

with imbalances in their gut, which causes inflammation, and

Melissa Deally: 00:16:18

then can trigger ourselves to turn on disease. So is it any

Melissa Deally: 00:16:22

wonder that we have so much chronic illness in our world

Melissa Deally: 00:16:25

today? So how do you find out if your body is out of balance,

Melissa Deally: 00:16:33

aside from it talking to you, but then you not really being

Melissa Deally: 00:16:37

sure what that means? Well, the easiest and quickest way is to

Melissa Deally: 00:16:40

run at home lab tests, these labs are literally mailed to

Melissa Deally: 00:16:44

your home with instructions on how to do them. a urine sample,

Melissa Deally: 00:16:48

a blood spot card, meaning you prick your finger and you drip

Melissa Deally: 00:16:51

some blood onto a card with circles on it. Hair snipping

Melissa Deally: 00:16:54

from hair at the nape of your neck, or saliva tests where you

Melissa Deally: 00:16:58

spit saliva into a tube. All things that you can do at home,

Melissa Deally: 00:17:02

you don't have to make an appointment, you don't have to

Melissa Deally: 00:17:03

go to a clinic, you can do these at home. I offer my clients

Melissa Deally: 00:17:09

discount pricing on the labs when we work together over a

Melissa Deally: 00:17:12

minimum of four sessions. As we guide your body back into

Melissa Deally: 00:17:15

balance. Once we see what is going on where it is out of

Melissa Deally: 00:17:19

balance based on the results of your labs. That was the gap I

Melissa Deally: 00:17:23

saw in the market in working with my own naturopath and

Melissa Deally: 00:17:26

referring others to her they would get their results. And

Melissa Deally: 00:17:30

then they'd be told what to do what they should do. But did

Melissa Deally: 00:17:34

they actually do it? Unfortunately, they didn't,

Melissa Deally: 00:17:37

because they didn't know where to start. And it felt

Melissa Deally: 00:17:40

overwhelming. And it just felt too hard. So they did nothing.

Melissa Deally: 00:17:46

And there is no point in having the information from the labs if

Melissa Deally: 00:17:49

then you do nothing with it. So that's why I support my clients

Melissa Deally: 00:17:53

through a process of four sessions, using an app providing

Melissa Deally: 00:17:56

meal plans and recipes, if needed, and then answering

Melissa Deally: 00:17:59

questions through the app adjusting supplements as needed.

Melissa Deally: 00:18:03

As we guide the body back into balance. This high level of

Melissa Deally: 00:18:07

support is what gets results for my clients. And that is what I

Melissa Deally: 00:18:10

want for my clients. So whether you know your body is already

Melissa Deally: 00:18:16

talking to you, or you want to take proactive action, these lab

Melissa Deally: 00:18:20

tests are for you. They provide you so much information as to

Melissa Deally: 00:18:25

what is going on inside your body. And as we look at the

Melissa Deally: 00:18:28

imbalances, we then know the steps to rebalance the body. And

Melissa Deally: 00:18:34

once the body is back in balance, it will heal itself if

Melissa Deally: 00:18:38

that's what's needed. That is what the body is designed to do.

Melissa Deally: 00:18:43

heal itself just like it heals a cut finger or a broken arm. It's

Melissa Deally: 00:18:48

our daily life, though, that has us so far out of balance due to

Melissa Deally: 00:18:52

again, let's say it together, poor sleep, poor nutrition, high

Melissa Deally: 00:18:56

stress, We've burned through all our vitamins and minerals. And

Melissa Deally: 00:19:00

the body is in a state that is simply too depleted to be able

Melissa Deally: 00:19:04

to bring itself back into balance. And so then it can't

Melissa Deally: 00:19:08

heal itself. It needs added support. And so where are we, we

Melissa Deally: 00:19:14

use the labs, we determine those imbalances. And then we support

Melissa Deally: 00:19:19

what is needed to bring the body back into balance. A body in

Melissa Deally: 00:19:24

balance doesn't get sick, doesn't harbor disease, or hold

Melissa Deally: 00:19:28

on to excess weight. So let's talk about these labs. Anyone

Melissa Deally: 00:19:34

listening you might want to go to my YouTube channel because

Melissa Deally: 00:19:37

I'm going to share my screen here so that you can actually

Melissa Deally: 00:19:40

see the labs. I'll put the link in the show notes so you can

Melissa Deally: 00:19:44

watch this portion later. As I show you exactly what the labs

Melissa Deally: 00:19:48

look like. And while you're on my YouTube channel, it would be

Melissa Deally: 00:19:52

awesome if you could also subscribe I'm trying to get to

Melissa Deally: 00:19:54

100 subscribers so that I can actually brand my YouTube

Melissa Deally: 00:19:58

channel and then it would be so much easier for me to Just tell

Melissa Deally: 00:20:00

you here and now what the URL is. Because I hope one day, it

Melissa Deally: 00:20:05

will be youtube.com forward slash your guided health

Melissa Deally: 00:20:07

journey. But it is not that today. So I will put the link in

Melissa Deally: 00:20:10

the show notes, please subscribe, I'm almost at my 100

Melissa Deally: 00:20:13

just need a few more. And then next time around,

Melissa Deally: 00:20:16

I can that actually give you the URL verbally as well. So let me

Melissa Deally: 00:20:21

share my screen here. And we are going to run through these labs.

Melissa Deally: 00:20:29

So the first lab I want to talk about is the food sensitivities

Melissa Deally: 00:20:33

lab, this lab tests for over 190 Different foods, and assesses

Melissa Deally: 00:20:39

the immune response in your body, when you eat these foods.

Melissa Deally: 00:20:44

And immune response is also creating inflammation. When we

Melissa Deally: 00:20:49

have a cut finger, the body creates inflammation in that

Melissa Deally: 00:20:53

area to help heal the gut heal the wound. Same thing with a

Melissa Deally: 00:20:56

swollen ankle, right? When we have an immune response, it

Melissa Deally: 00:21:00

triggers inflammation. So if we are unknowingly eating foods

Melissa Deally: 00:21:05

that we have a sensitivity to day in and day out, we are

Melissa Deally: 00:21:09

creating inflammation in our body. And that over time, has us

Melissa Deally: 00:21:15

in a place of chronic inflammation, which we don't

Melissa Deally: 00:21:19

want, because remember, chronic inflammation triggers our cells

Melissa Deally: 00:21:24

to turn on those genes that we that triggered the disease that

Melissa Deally: 00:21:29

we're genetically predisposed to. And you might I have people

Melissa Deally: 00:21:35

come to me that have digestive issues, they have symptoms, and

Melissa Deally: 00:21:39

they say, well, it's not the food. Because I've been eating

Melissa Deally: 00:21:42

this food my whole life, and it can't be the food. But here's

Melissa Deally: 00:21:46

the reality, there's several factors going on here. First of

Melissa Deally: 00:21:50

all, as children, we innately know what our body likes, and

Melissa Deally: 00:21:54

doesn't like because we have that innate ability to listen to

Melissa Deally: 00:21:58

our body. But what happens is our well meaning parents, my

Melissa Deally: 00:22:02

parents did this to me. And I did this to my children, because

Melissa Deally: 00:22:05

remember, I didn't know then what I know now we'll put food

Melissa Deally: 00:22:10

on the table, the same meal for everyone because it's convenient

Melissa Deally: 00:22:14

to feed the whole family the same meal. And when somebody

Melissa Deally: 00:22:17

says I don't want this, we get told, eat everything on your

Melissa Deally: 00:22:21

plate because there's children starving in Africa. We've all

Melissa Deally: 00:22:25

heard that. But the reality is, is that a young child doesn't

Melissa Deally: 00:22:30

have the vocabulary in order to truly say how that food makes

Melissa Deally: 00:22:34

them feel. And explain that to a parent. And the parent isn't

Melissa Deally: 00:22:39

necessarily listening because the parent is reacting out of

Melissa Deally: 00:22:43

habit in the way they were parented talking about children

Melissa Deally: 00:22:47

starving in Africa. So over time, we start to override our

Melissa Deally: 00:22:54

body signals, we stopped listening to our body signals,

Melissa Deally: 00:22:57

and we eat the food. And because it's not an anaphylactic

Melissa Deally: 00:23:00

reaction, there's nothing dire going on, we might not feel

Melissa Deally: 00:23:04

great. The next day, we might have a tummy ache, we might have

Melissa Deally: 00:23:06

brain fog, we might have joint pain, but we don't associate it

Melissa Deally: 00:23:12

with the ongoing eating of this food or we don't communicate

Melissa Deally: 00:23:15

that to our parents. So we keep eating it. And over time over

Melissa Deally: 00:23:20

the span of a lifetime. This escalates and the body starts

Melissa Deally: 00:23:24

talking to us more loudly, or trying to speak with different

Melissa Deally: 00:23:28

symptoms to make us finally do something kind of we get to that

Melissa Deally: 00:23:32

brick stage where we now are like, Okay, this is so bad. I

Melissa Deally: 00:23:36

need to actually investigate this. But we still don't think

Melissa Deally: 00:23:39

it's the food. It's also very difficult to discover which

Melissa Deally: 00:23:44

foods are the culprit, because we eat so many different foods

Melissa Deally: 00:23:47

in any given day. And when it's a food sensitivity, the symptoms

Melissa Deally: 00:23:51

tend not to show up for 24 to 48 to even 72 hours later. And let

Melissa Deally: 00:23:56

me ask you this. Do you remember what you ate three days ago? Can

Melissa Deally: 00:24:00

you name every single food you ate? Probably not. And as a

Melissa Deally: 00:24:05

result, it's very difficult to figure this out on your own,

Melissa Deally: 00:24:09

even using a food diary. And so running the lab just makes it

Melissa Deally: 00:24:13

super easy because it tells you what foods you have a

Melissa Deally: 00:24:17

sensitivity to. The other thing that increases our risk of food

Melissa Deally: 00:24:22

sensitivities is our toxic load. Something else I've talked about

Melissa Deally: 00:24:26

often and if you're not familiar with toxic load, you can go back

Melissa Deally: 00:24:29

and listen to my episodes one through four of this podcast.

Melissa Deally: 00:24:33

As we increase our toxic load, we're also increasing our body's

Melissa Deally: 00:24:39

inflammation levels, and increasing the number of

Melissa Deally: 00:24:42

sensitivities we will have when it comes to our food because our

Melissa Deally: 00:24:46

digestive system is weaker. And we struggle to break down foods.

Melissa Deally: 00:24:50

So we further increase inflammation. So this particular

Melissa Deally: 00:24:55

sample report that you can see on the screen here just shows

Melissa Deally: 00:24:57

page one of this lab is going Through dairy, it's going

Melissa Deally: 00:25:01

through lagoons, it's going through fruits, it's going

Melissa Deally: 00:25:03

through grains, fish, seafood, meat, as well as nuts and seeds.

Melissa Deally: 00:25:10

And this particular person on this sample report has a lot of

Melissa Deally: 00:25:14

food sensitivities. So this tells me that they very likely

Melissa Deally: 00:25:17

have a leaky gut. And we need to be addressing their gut, while

Melissa Deally: 00:25:22

also eliminating the foods. When we eliminate the foods, we start

Melissa Deally: 00:25:25

to lower inflammation, we start to lower stress on the body. And

Melissa Deally: 00:25:29

when we lower stress on the body, the body can start

Melissa Deally: 00:25:31

healing. And once we heal the gut, we can then start to

Melissa Deally: 00:25:35

reintroduce these foods. Now, when we remove the foods, we're

Melissa Deally: 00:25:40

not removing them forever. We're removing them depending on the

Melissa Deally: 00:25:43

degree of sensitivity for six weeks, 12 weeks, or six months.

Melissa Deally: 00:25:49

And yes, we can reintroduce them. Once we've given the body

Melissa Deally: 00:25:53

a chance to heal. It simply may mean that as you reintroduce

Melissa Deally: 00:25:58

them, and you have newfound awareness around how you feel,

Melissa Deally: 00:26:02

and you're introducing one food at a time, you can assess over

Melissa Deally: 00:26:06

that 72 hour period, how that food makes you feel? Does it

Melissa Deally: 00:26:11

give you brain fog? Does it give you joint pain? Does it cause

Melissa Deally: 00:26:14

stomach aches? Does it cause Gasser diarrhea or bloating

Melissa Deally: 00:26:18

so that you know what that food does to you. And with a healed

Melissa Deally: 00:26:22

gut, maybe it doesn't do anything at all. Or maybe it

Melissa Deally: 00:26:26

does. And so now you have choices, you have the choice to

Melissa Deally: 00:26:32

eat that food less often, right, you're not going to eat it three

Melissa Deally: 00:26:36

times a day, seven days a week. Many people do eat grains three

Melissa Deally: 00:26:41

times a day, seven days a week. And if their body can't cope

Melissa Deally: 00:26:44

with it, we need to cut it back. So or maybe it's eggs, maybe you

Melissa Deally: 00:26:49

have eggs three days a week, five days a week. Well, now if

Melissa Deally: 00:26:53

it's eggs that are the problem. And eggs are the number three

Melissa Deally: 00:26:56

food sensitivity. First is gluten, then dairy, then eggs.

Melissa Deally: 00:27:01

If eggs are the problem, well, maybe you're going to have eggs

Melissa Deally: 00:27:04

once every couple of weeks, not three to five times a week. So

Melissa Deally: 00:27:09

it gives you choices. If you shouldn't be doing gluten and

Melissa Deally: 00:27:13

dairy, but the whole family is doing pizza and you're watching

Melissa Deally: 00:27:17

a hockey game together, whatever it is, and it's a Friday night,

Melissa Deally: 00:27:20

maybe that's okay, because over the weekend, you don't have any

Melissa Deally: 00:27:23

plans. And if you don't feel great or you have brain fog, it

Melissa Deally: 00:27:25

doesn't matter if you lie around on the couch. But if you have a

Melissa Deally: 00:27:29

really big presentation in three days, maybe you don't want to

Melissa Deally: 00:27:32

have that pizza just to make sure that you don't have that

Melissa Deally: 00:27:34

brain fog or that discomfort before your presentation. So

Melissa Deally: 00:27:38

again, it gives you choices. Having this knowledge is

Melissa Deally: 00:27:42

powerful because then you get to make the right choices for you

Melissa Deally: 00:27:46

knowing the ramifications, as opposed to not knowing in some

Melissa Deally: 00:27:51

days feeling good. And some days feeling like crap and not

Melissa Deally: 00:27:54

understanding why. So the next lab is the thyroid and adrenal

Melissa Deally: 00:28:00

hormones lab. And I love this lab because it gives us so much

Melissa Deally: 00:28:04

information in one place. It gives me all four sex hormone

Melissa Deally: 00:28:09

markers. It gives me four cortisol markers throughout the

Melissa Deally: 00:28:12

day. It gives me all four thyroid markers. It gives me

Melissa Deally: 00:28:16

both the fasted insulin and then 90 Day insulin markers as well

Melissa Deally: 00:28:20

as vitamin D markers. You can't see that because that's on page

Melissa Deally: 00:28:23

two. But all of this information in one place is extremely

Melissa Deally: 00:28:27

helpful for people, especially people that are struggling with

Melissa Deally: 00:28:31

low energy. Because I get to see what is your cortisol doing? Is

Melissa Deally: 00:28:36

it doing what it should be doing, which is it should be

Melissa Deally: 00:28:39

highest in the morning when you wake up between six and 8am. And

Melissa Deally: 00:28:42

then it should be dropping by about half by lunchtime,

Melissa Deally: 00:28:46

dinnertime. And then at its lowest at bedtime. Because we

Melissa Deally: 00:28:50

want cortisol low at bedtime. It's the invoice marker to

Melissa Deally: 00:28:54

melatonin. We want melatonin at its highest at that time so that

Melissa Deally: 00:28:58

you can get into a deep restorative sleep. And when

Melissa Deally: 00:29:01

cortisol isn't functioning that way, it's an indication of the

Melissa Deally: 00:29:05

stress on your body. And you may not feel that stressed. But the

Melissa Deally: 00:29:09

reality is, is stress stacks within our body. And our body is

Melissa Deally: 00:29:13

trying to cope with that stress. And not only the stresses in

Melissa Deally: 00:29:16

your daily life, but perhaps you've got a parasite that your

Melissa Deally: 00:29:19

body's fighting, you've got gut imbalances, maybe you're

Melissa Deally: 00:29:22

fighting a virus, those are all stresses as well that your body

Melissa Deally: 00:29:26

is trying to cope with. And perhaps it's not able to calm

Melissa Deally: 00:29:30

properly at night for you to get into that deep restorative sleep

Melissa Deally: 00:29:34

for your body to be able to make the melatonin that needs to be

Melissa Deally: 00:29:37

made and we need to support your body in calming before bed. And

Melissa Deally: 00:29:42

we can do that through the use of natural supplements. So when

Melissa Deally: 00:29:45

we see the imbalances in your cortisol, we know how to support

Melissa Deally: 00:29:49

the body and coming back into balance. Seeing estrogen and

Melissa Deally: 00:29:53

progesterone ratios is really important particularly for women

Melissa Deally: 00:29:57

because a when estrogen When is too high relative to

Melissa Deally: 00:30:01

progesterone and the balance is off, it puts us into a state of

Melissa Deally: 00:30:06

estrogen dominance. And when we're in a state of estrogen

Melissa Deally: 00:30:10

dominance, that can trigger other things inside our body, it

Melissa Deally: 00:30:14

can cause our thyroid to slow down. This is why so many more

Melissa Deally: 00:30:19

women have thyroid disease than men. As I said earlier, one in

Melissa Deally: 00:30:24

eight women will get thyroid disease in their lifetime. So if

Melissa Deally: 00:30:27

our estrogen is too high relative to progesterone, it can

Melissa Deally: 00:30:31

trigger thyroid issues. It can also put us on the path towards

Melissa Deally: 00:30:35

type two diabetes, it can also left unchecked cause breast

Melissa Deally: 00:30:41

cancer, it's one of the known causes of breast cancer. So

Melissa Deally: 00:30:45

seeing all of this information on one lab is really important,

Melissa Deally: 00:30:50

helpful information, in order for us to understand where the

Melissa Deally: 00:30:55

body is out of balance, and help bring the body back into

Melissa Deally: 00:30:59

balance. The next lab is the gut health lab. Whoops, I went one

Melissa Deally: 00:31:07

too far, too, too far.

Melissa Deally: 00:31:09

There we go. Our gut health lab. And this lab is also incredibly

Melissa Deally: 00:31:14

helpful. This is a urine sample. And it will show us whether you

Melissa Deally: 00:31:17

have bacterial overgrowth, Candida overgrowth, mold or

Melissa Deally: 00:31:21

fungus in your gut. That's all on page one. Page two goes into

Melissa Deally: 00:31:25

mitochondrial function. And of course, our mitochondria are

Melissa Deally: 00:31:29

energy powerhouses in the body. And if they're not functioning

Melissa Deally: 00:31:33

well, we need to be supporting them in order for you to have

Melissa Deally: 00:31:36

good energy. It also goes into neurotransmitter function.

Melissa Deally: 00:31:40

Because of that gut brain connection. If the gut isn't

Melissa Deally: 00:31:43

happy, neither is the brain. And if they got isn't happy, it's

Melissa Deally: 00:31:46

not producing neurotransmitters, particularly serotonin and

Melissa Deally: 00:31:50

dopamine at high enough levels for us to feel good and happy.

Melissa Deally: 00:31:55

And that's sometimes why people go to the doctor saying I feel

Melissa Deally: 00:31:59

blah, I'm just down and feel depressed, and they get put on a

Melissa Deally: 00:32:03

drug and anti anxiety or an anti depressive drug, as opposed to

Melissa Deally: 00:32:07

let's look at what's going on inside your gut. That could be

Melissa Deally: 00:32:10

triggering it to not be able to produce the right amounts of

Melissa Deally: 00:32:14

serotonin and dopamine levels for you to feel good. Again,

Melissa Deally: 00:32:17

when we understand this information, it's really

Melissa Deally: 00:32:20

powerful in being able to heal the body or bring the body back

Melissa Deally: 00:32:27

into balance, at which point it heals itself. I'm not healing

Melissa Deally: 00:32:29

anything, I'm not diagnosing anything. I'm simply looking for

Melissa Deally: 00:32:33

the imbalances, helping the body come back into balance, at which

Melissa Deally: 00:32:37

point it will heal itself. So this lab also shows us vitamin

Melissa Deally: 00:32:44

levels for key vitamins. And again, we burn through those

Melissa Deally: 00:32:47

under high stress. So we want to know if your body is depleted,

Melissa Deally: 00:32:50

and then support those levels so that the body can function

Melissa Deally: 00:32:54

optimally. And it also shows detox pathways are your detox

Melissa Deally: 00:32:59

pathways functioning well are they blocks do we need to

Melissa Deally: 00:33:02

support them more, we do live in a toxic world. And so the body

Melissa Deally: 00:33:07

needs all the support it can get when it comes to detoxing. The

Melissa Deally: 00:33:13

next lab is our middle metals and minerals lab tests. This is

Melissa Deally: 00:33:16

simply a hair clipping from the nape of the neck. And this lab

Melissa Deally: 00:33:20

will show us our electrolytes and all of our key minerals. So

Melissa Deally: 00:33:25

our electrolytes are our calcium, magnesium, sodium and

Melissa Deally: 00:33:27

potassium. And as I said earlier, when there's an

Melissa Deally: 00:33:29

imbalance there, that is a very common cause of heart disease,

Melissa Deally: 00:33:33

our number one killer in North America. When we are under

Melissa Deally: 00:33:37

stress, we also burn through our minerals, like we do our

Melissa Deally: 00:33:40

vitamins. And so we can very often be depleted in our

Melissa Deally: 00:33:45

minerals, including our zinc, or copper or manganese, or chromium

Melissa Deally: 00:33:49

or Selenium or phosphorus. And then the body can't bring itself

Melissa Deally: 00:33:54

back into balance. So we need to address this, we need to support

Melissa Deally: 00:33:57

the body by giving the body what it needs. But what's important

Melissa Deally: 00:34:01

too, when it comes to our minerals is it's not just about

Melissa Deally: 00:34:03

our deficiency levels, it's also about having them be in balance

Melissa Deally: 00:34:07

with one another. We don't want so much copper that we don't

Melissa Deally: 00:34:10

have enough zinc because they will push each other up and

Melissa Deally: 00:34:12

down, we need to have them in balance. The same for calcium

Melissa Deally: 00:34:16

and magnesium, for example. So again, this lab shows us all of

Melissa Deally: 00:34:21

that. And it also shows us metal toxic levels for five key

Melissa Deally: 00:34:26

metals, aluminum, arsenic, mercury, cadmium and lead. And

Melissa Deally: 00:34:32

it's important to know that too, because our body struggles to

Melissa Deally: 00:34:36

detox metals, which are not natural in the body by itself,

Melissa Deally: 00:34:40

so we need to support it with a proper heavy metal detox to get

Melissa Deally: 00:34:45

those metals out. Because if we don't, what do they do? They

Melissa Deally: 00:34:49

cause inflammation. What does that do? Over time that chronic

Melissa Deally: 00:34:53

level of inflammation will trigger ourselves to turn on

Melissa Deally: 00:34:56

disease. Not only that some of those metals are neurotoxins,

Melissa Deally: 00:35:01

meaning they get into our brain and they cause problems with

Melissa Deally: 00:35:04

our, our brain function. And we don't want that we've only got

Melissa Deally: 00:35:07

one brain as well, right? So we know aluminum is a known

Melissa Deally: 00:35:10

neurotoxin, so is mercury.

Melissa Deally: 00:35:13

So the next lab is our omega three lab test. And I love this

Melissa Deally: 00:35:19

one, it's measuring our level of inflammation in the body. It's

Melissa Deally: 00:35:24

comparing our levels of omega threes to omega sixes, these are

Melissa Deally: 00:35:27

our essential fatty acids. And they're essential because our

Melissa Deally: 00:35:31

body doesn't make them so we have to get them through our

Melissa Deally: 00:35:34

food. Omega sixes are the inflammatory, essential fatty

Melissa Deally: 00:35:39

acid and omega threes are the anti inflammatory. But here's

Melissa Deally: 00:35:43

the thing, Omega sixes are in everything in terms of our food

Melissa Deally: 00:35:48

is very easy for us to get omega sixes into our diet, whereas

Melissa Deally: 00:35:51

omega threes are harder to get. The best sources are wild fatty

Melissa Deally: 00:35:56

fish like sardines, anchovies, wild salmon, well, mackerel, the

Melissa Deally: 00:36:02

there are some plant based omega threes as well, but the body has

Melissa Deally: 00:36:05

to go through an extra process to break that down. And so it's

Melissa Deally: 00:36:08

harder for us to get enough through just a plant based diet,

Melissa Deally: 00:36:11

or we have to eat a lot more in order to get enough. So I love

Melissa Deally: 00:36:16

this lab, because it says right under that green line where it

Melissa Deally: 00:36:20

says total Omega three 8%. Right underneath that it says we want

Melissa Deally: 00:36:24

to be at 9%. If when we get to the desired level of greater

Melissa Deally: 00:36:28

than 9%, we are actually then reducing our risk of sudden

Melissa Deally: 00:36:34

death by cardiovascular disease by 99 0%. Now, that's powerful.

Melissa Deally: 00:36:43

Given that death by cardiovascular disease is the

Melissa Deally: 00:36:46

number one killer in North America, if we could get

Melissa Deally: 00:36:51

everybody in the world to balance their Omega three to

Melissa Deally: 00:36:55

omega six levels in order to have balanced inflammation in

Melissa Deally: 00:37:00

the body, we would lower our levels of heart disease

Melissa Deally: 00:37:04

significantly. So what else that I love about this lab is that on

Melissa Deally: 00:37:11

page two, it actually shows us does your body need more EPA or

Melissa Deally: 00:37:16

more DHA, which are two types within Omega three. And so when

Melissa Deally: 00:37:22

you go to get a supplement, you buy something supplements store,

Melissa Deally: 00:37:25

there's so many things to choose from, how do you know what's a

Melissa Deally: 00:37:28

good supplement? And is it actually giving you what your

Melissa Deally: 00:37:30

body needs. And so here we're getting that additional

Melissa Deally: 00:37:33

information. So that you know, I need a omega three supplement

Melissa Deally: 00:37:38

official a supplement that has more EPA than DHA, or I need one

Melissa Deally: 00:37:43

that has more DPA than DHA and EPA, right? It's just giving you

Melissa Deally: 00:37:48

more information, which again, knowledge is power. And then the

Melissa Deally: 00:37:54

last lab that I want to share with you is our stool test. This

Melissa Deally: 00:37:59

lab will also look for Candida overgrowth, bacteria overgrowth,

Melissa Deally: 00:38:06

and goes further it looks at for parasites, it looks for h

Melissa Deally: 00:38:09

pylori. And it also looks at digestive function. What's the

Melissa Deally: 00:38:13

pH level in your stomach? What's the enzymatic production in your

Melissa Deally: 00:38:17

stomach are the levels good or not. And so that's a lot of

Melissa Deally: 00:38:22

powerful information for people that are struggling with

Melissa Deally: 00:38:25

digestive issues or have symptoms of parasites or H

Melissa Deally: 00:38:29

Pylori, and we need more information. And sometimes you

Melissa Deally: 00:38:33

think parasites or H Pylori are just a problem in developing

Melissa Deally: 00:38:36

countries. But that isn't true. It's actually still very common

Melissa Deally: 00:38:40

globally. Because of course, we travel to developing countries

Melissa Deally: 00:38:45

and then come home again. But we can get parasites and h pylori

Melissa Deally: 00:38:51

locally within our first world countries as well from a number

Melissa Deally: 00:38:55

of different sources.

Melissa Deally: 00:38:58

So this is a three days through lab. And the reason that we do

Melissa Deally: 00:39:01

it as a three day lab is that the speck of stool that you take

Melissa Deally: 00:39:06

out of the stool and put into the container is a fairly small

Melissa Deally: 00:39:10

speck. And so from your bowel movement, you pick a spot, it

Melissa Deally: 00:39:15

could it's easy to actually miss the pathogen. But when we do it

Melissa Deally: 00:39:18

over three days, we have a much higher chance of finding the

Melissa Deally: 00:39:22

pathogen and at least one of those stool samples in order to

Melissa Deally: 00:39:26

know exactly what we're dealing with. And when we do just a one

Melissa Deally: 00:39:29

day test, there's a very high, false negative. So you get told,

Melissa Deally: 00:39:34

Oh, you don't have anything. There's nothing wrong with you.

Melissa Deally: 00:39:36

We've just done a one day test. But what I see in the three day

Melissa Deally: 00:39:39

Labs is I'll see the results across all three days. And I'll

Melissa Deally: 00:39:43

see Oh, day one, there was nothing but on the day two lab

Melissa Deally: 00:39:45

we found something and on the day three tests, we found

Melissa Deally: 00:39:48

something where sometimes we find it just in one of the

Melissa Deally: 00:39:50

samples of the three but at least we know it's there and

Melissa Deally: 00:39:54

what we're dealing with. So then we know how to eradicate it from

Melissa Deally: 00:39:59

the body. And then again, bring the body back into balance. So,

Melissa Deally: 00:40:05

I wanted to share all of this with you today, because again,

Melissa Deally: 00:40:08

we're talking about the power within our gut health or the way

Melissa Deally: 00:40:11

our body talks to us. And the way our body is designed to be

Melissa Deally: 00:40:17

in balance, and when we understand that when we know how

Melissa Deally: 00:40:22

to listen to our body, and when we also know the options that

Melissa Deally: 00:40:25

are available to us to determine whether our body is out of

Melissa Deally: 00:40:30

balance in any of these areas I've addressed through the labs,

Melissa Deally: 00:40:33

you have more choices, you have more choices to choose to be

Melissa Deally: 00:40:36

proactive in your health and get a baseline of all of these labs

Melissa Deally: 00:40:39

when you're feeling amazing to know exactly what your levels

Melissa Deally: 00:40:43

are. And then run the labs annually if you like to catch

Melissa Deally: 00:40:47

the early warning signs of things going sideways. Or if you

Melissa Deally: 00:40:51

are struggling with symptoms, then these labs can really help

Melissa Deally: 00:40:55

you understand what is going on, and then how we can address that

Melissa Deally: 00:40:59

in order to bring the body back into balance. So thank you so
