    What Really Causes Cancer? | #319

    Join Dr. G and special guest Dr. Juliana Giles as they explore the complex connections between chronic diseases, trauma, and lifestyle choices in this enlightening episode. Together, they examine the rising rates of conditions like cancer and autoimmune disorders, focusing on how early trauma can dysregulate the nervous system, leading to immune and hormonal dysfunction. You’ll learn how nearly 90% of cancer cases are influenced by epigenetic factors, including lifestyle and environmental exposure, rather than genetics. Dr. G and Dr. Giles discuss the impact of diet, toxins, and stress on health, especially in younger populations, and offer actionable advice on improving gut health, managing stress, and creating safer environments for healing.

    Will Siete Go Downhill? | #318

    In this episode, Dr. G dives into the recent $1.2 billion acquisition of Siete Foods by PepsiCo and what it could mean for the health-conscious consumer. Siete, known for its grain-free, gluten-free, and dairy-free Mexican-American-inspired products, has gained a loyal following for its commitment to allergen-friendly foods. But now that PepsiCo is taking the reins, can we be sure the quality and authenticity will remain intact?

    Dr. G also reveals several health and wellness brands you may not realize were acquired by major corporations, including Annie’s, RXBAR, and Garden of Life. With these takeovers come concerns about product changes—like the introduction of GMOs, preservatives, or shifting ingredient quality.
