About this episode

In this episode of Healing & Human Potential, we explore why living a fast-paced life can actually be harmful to our productivity, and how our culture can play a role in the way we express or repress our emotions.

 

We'll also unpack how emotional trauma is linked to illness and how we can start taking natural precautions to help prevent cancer, giving you practical tips to live a happier and healthier life.

 

Today’s guest, Dr. Christian Gonzalez, lovingly known as Dr. G, received his Doctorate in Naturopathic Medicine and wears many hats. From being a podcast host to being a trusted voice auditing healthy brands, he's on a mission to empower people with the knowledge + courage to take their health into their own hands, so this is an episode you’ll definitely want to take notes on!

Dr. Christian Gonzalez, aka Dr. G, completed his Doctorate of Naturopathic Medicine at the University of Bridgeport College of Naturopathic Medicine in 2014. During his time there, he took interest in many fields of medicine, but it wasn’t until his mother passed of cancer that he decided to shift his focus to oncology. 

 

Everything is connected, from the foods we eat to the way we think and interact with the world and the people in our lives. These seemingly small factors all play a large part when it comes to our health and longevity. Because of this, Dr. G has shifted from working with patients to focusing his energy on mass education. He has become a trusted voice in the auditing of healthy brands so that the consumer is empowered to make the best choice for themselves and their families.
