Eat Pray Faith with Tracey Stroup, ND, CNHP

Many people struggle with health issues but how many truly look at the TOTAL wellness path of physical, emotional and spiritual?
If you are still struggling with health and have tried 'all the things' it may be time for you to tune in, listen and take it to Jesus.
What is the missing piece to gaining optimal health? What if it is addressing the emotions, hurt, pain, grief or trauma...and looking at how to you take this to the cross?
Doc Nana, has an amazing story to share and has taken her own personal testimony to help those truly see Jesus in the pain and suffering; helping people move through the emotional and spiritual impact of sickness to fully regaining their health.
Let's take a deep dive into the emotional and spiritual wellness with my good friend, Dr. Sherian McCoy more affectionately known as "Doc Nana"

In this episode of the 'Eat, Pray, Faith' podcast, Dr. Tracey welcomes Dr. Sheila Day, a Naturopathic Doctor and expert in homeoprophylaxis (HP).
With so much information linking v@ccines to significant risks and not much proven benefit for humans and our pets, wouldn’t you rather use a completely Natural, Safe and Effective method of protecting your and your children’s (and pet's) immune systems from infectious contagious disease?
Avoiding childhood "diseases" is not in our best interest; find out why. How about a system that has over 200 years proven safety and efficacy with Never a single injury or side effect?

In this episode, we discuss the safety and efficacy of HP as an alternative to traditional v@ccinations, its 200-year history, and its role in educating the immune system without harmful additives. Dr. Day shares her journey from paramedic to naturopathic practitioner, driven by her grandson's adverse v@ccine reactions.
The conversation covers current issues with the childhood schedule, ingredients, and their impact on health. Additionally, we discuss adult shots and those needed for travel. There are safe and effective alternatives for people needing them.
Dr. Tracey and Dr. Sheila emphasize the importance of education and empowerment for parents seeking safer healthcare options for their families.
Dr. Day also offers insights into how HP can be administered and its various benefits for children, travelers, and even pets.
This is must listen and must share podcast. I have been waiting to get this information out so people know who to turn to for TRUTH health care!

Part 1 of 2
Cholesterol: The Most Misunderstood Molecule
In this episode Dr. Tracey Stroup dives into the truth about cholesterol—a molecule often misunderstood yet essential to our health. Many of us have heard that high cholesterol is a risk factor for heart disease, but there's more to the story.
Dr. Tracey unpacks the nuances of the lipid panel, the real functions of LDL and HDL lipoproteins, and the importance of looking at cholesterol through a fresh lens.
Discover why cholesterol isn't the "bad guy" and how a holistic approach can reshape our understanding of cardiovascular health and chronic DIS-ease.
Cholesterol plays a crucial role in our body’s functions, from hormone production and cell membrane structure to brain health. In this enlightening episode, Dr. Tracey Stroup sheds light on why cholesterol is often wrongly vilified and discusses how recent research calls for a new perspective on the lipid panel.
Tune in to learn why a balanced approach to lifestyle and diet is more effective than simply focusing on lowering cholesterol. This episode offers practical insights for anyone looking to better understand this “misunderstood molecule.”

Beyond Ozempic®.... that name is iconic now. However, there are many other peptides on the market that have been used safely and effectively in the health space, outside of GLP-1 agonists and beyond just weight loss. These peptides are amazing adds to a health regimen and have been used for decades.

In fact, I use oral peptide therapy in my practice for clients with great results.

With the heavy and abrupt onset of semaglutide (Ozempic® and others), I had to ask myself, why do I love all other peptides and hate this one? So, I invited my good friend and expert, Nikki Raymond to have an open conversation about this today.
I will be the first to admit that when semaglutide and other GLP-1 agonists hit the market, I was skeptical. Even against it. But then I realized what if it is NOT the peptide I dislike but the misuse of the peptide.
This podcast is two parts.

• Part 1 will be all about peptides; what are the different kinds of peptides? What conditions are they used for? Exactly how do they work in the body? Are they safe? Nikki Raymond a.k.a NikkiFIT will be my guest today and is an expert in functional nutrition, fitness and yes, peptide therapy.
• Part 2 we will cover GLP-1 agonist peptides, beyond Ozempic®. The mechanisms of how they work, why these peptides need another look. What may be dangerous about them and how to help those using these peptides? And finally, a few conspiracy theories and thoughts for the health industry.

If you are a current user of semaglutide or other GLP-1 agonists, you should tune in to learn how to really support your body, what to know about managing this process and eventually the exit strategy you will need.
If you are on the fence about them as a health care professional, tune in.
I'm not advocating for or against any therapies for individuals and this is certainly not medical advice here on this podcast...but more of a discussion and discovery between professionals who walk with these people.
At the end of the day, we truly need to have these conversations and stop the shame, game that is associated with weight, weight loss and weight gain. Especially for women. No matter what we do...we are condemned.
This was an amazing conversation.
