Whether I’m the first place you’ve stopped at or the last place you will ever need I am completely stoked to help you not only feel better faster, but also really uncover why you felt that way in the first place.

It’s time to stop holding back on your life and start moving forward, naturally!

The controversy over Tylenol and pregnancy is just the latest reminder of how quickly political outrage can hijack health conversations.

But here’s the truth: these aren’t political issues—they’re informed consent issues.
Patients deserve clear, honest information about risks and benefits, not fear-driven headlines or emotional shutdowns.

Decorum matters. Crucial conversations about health and medicine will always bring emotions, but if we stop there, no one gets the knowledge they need to make informed decisions.

At the end of the day, informed consent isn’t about silencing emotions—it’s about making sure they don’t replace dialogue.

If you think the outrage around Tylenol and pregnancy is bad…
👀 Just wait until antidepressants and pregnancy enter the chat. This is still so odd to me that its political.

Maybe the conversation shouldn’t be about politics or outrage at all.
Maybe it should be about informed consent—women getting the full picture of risks, benefits, and alternatives so they can make the best choice for themselves and their babies.

Science evolves. That means what we once believed to be “safe” is often reevaluated—and sometimes overturned—when the evidence catches up.

Look at the outrage right now over Tylenol in pregnancy. The conversation is loud, emotional, and filled with fear. But this is what happens when science forces us into crucial conversations we’d rather avoid.

Now… wait until antidepressants in pregnancy enter the chat. That’s going to make Tylenol look like a warm-up round. Because when the stakes are both maternal mental health and fetal development, the questions get a lot more uncomfortable.

But here’s the truth: pretending we already have all the answers helps no one. Science isn’t static—it demands we stay open, curious, and willing to face the hard truths together.

leaky gut. Some say it’s the root cause of almost every health issue… others say it doesn’t even exist.

That’s the controversy.

In conventional medicine, “intestinal permeability” is recognized — your gut lining can become compromised. But the debate is around how much it impacts things like mood, hormones, autoimmunity, or mental health.

Functional and integrative practitioners often see it as a key driver of chronic symptoms. Mainstream medicine tends to call it “unproven.”

So, what do you think? Is leaky gut a real problem, or just a buzzword?

Akathisia isn’t just “restlessness.” It’s a brain injury caused by psychiatric medications that can feel like torture from the inside out. People describe it as unbearable agitation, like being trapped in their own body with no way to escape.

If someone you love is experiencing akathisia:

Believe them. This is real, devastating, and not “just anxiety.”

Protect their nervous system. Keep the environment calm—reduce noise, lights, and unnecessary stimulation.

Stay with them. Sometimes your steady, non-judgmental presence is the most powerful support.

Don’t try to stop the movement. Pacing, rocking, or shifting is often how the body tries to survive it.

Advocate for their safety—not for more meds. Akathisia is a medical emergency, and the priority is protecting them, not piling on additional prescriptions.

Akathisia is a neurological injury. The best medicine is compassion, patience, and urgent recognition of what’s really happening.

Best place to start hyperbolic tapering? Collaborate with your pharmacy + prescriber. get maudsley deprescribing book
Then, depending on the med, people use different ways to make smaller % cuts as doses get lower:
💧 Liquid Rx from a pharmacy
💧 DIY liquid (with caution)
🔹 Bead counting
🔹 Bead measuring
⚖️ Weighing powder
✂️ Shaving tablets by weight
✂️ Cutting tablets

Everyone’s body + med is different. What works for one may not for another. Always check safety with your prescriber or pharmacist.

Sometimes a microtaper can make all the difference.
Dropping .10 all at once might hit you harder than you expect. But spacing that same .10 drop out over a couple weeks—tiny reductions, step by step—can smooth things out and make it much more tolerable.

It’s not always about how fast you can get off, but how safely and sustainably your body and brain can adjust.
