NURSE DOZA
About this episode

In this episode, Nurse Doza reveals 5 things Western medicine cannot help you with—critical areas where prescriptions and procedures fall short. From liver health to depression, this episode explores natural, functional approaches you need to understand to take charge of your health.

 

5 KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Fatty liver affects 1 in 4 people and is almost entirely ignored in traditional care.
  • Thyroid dysfunction is commonly misdiagnosed due to outdated lab standards.
  • Dementia has nutritional and lifestyle roots that are rarely addressed.
  • Gut health is foundational—yet still not recognized by most physicians.
  • Depression is often a nutrient deficiency, not just a chemical imbalance.

FEATURED PRODUCT: Good Poops Good Poops Protocol is designed to support the gut-liver axis, making it the perfect complement to today’s episode. Packed with digestive aids and liver-supporting nutrients, this protocol helps reduce inflammation, promote regularity, and strengthen your body's natural detox pathways—everything Western medicine often overlooks.
