When healing becomes an endless to-do list, something's wrong. Dr. Mary Pardee learned this the hard way. Trapped in a maze of treatments for her chronic gut issues, she discovered that the path to health isn't about doing more - it's about doing less. In this conversation, Dr. Pardee shatters common myths about integrative medicine. Forget endless supplement protocols. Question over testing. Stop chasing every new wellness trend. We dive deep into the gut-brain connection, exploring how emotional patterns can lock us into chronic illness - and how breaking these patterns can unlock healing. Dr. Pardee shares the exact strategies that transformed both her health and the lives of thousands of her patients. Think social media "health experts" are making you healthier? Think again. We expose how the democratization of health information is both empowering patients and drowning them in confusion. This isn't just another conversation about functional medicine - it's a roadmap to simpler, more effective healing. Whether you're struggling with chronic health issues or simply questioning conventional approaches to wellness, prepare to rethink everything you thought you knew about getting better. Ready to transform your approach to health? Join us for an eye-opening discussion that will change how you think about healing - and show you why sometimes, less really is more.
