00:01:58.680 --> 00:02:00.920
Medications certainly have their place.

00:02:01.080 --> 00:02:06.680
But what if there was a way to support your body naturally by working with your genetics?

00:02:06.920 --> 00:02:09.640
We are a pill for an ill society.

00:02:09.800 --> 00:02:13.479
We take 18 pills per person per American per day.

00:02:13.640 --> 00:02:15.000
It was so hard to find the budget.

00:02:16.199 --> 00:02:18.599
And for me to get well, it's a thousands of dollars.

00:02:18.680 --> 00:02:20.840
And I thought, but what do regular people do?

00:02:21.000 --> 00:02:21.800
This is not right.

00:02:22.120 --> 00:02:28.360
Despite my best efforts, I wasn't actually reversing disease and helping people to heal in the way that I thought I would.

00:02:28.520 --> 00:02:31.879
We want to empower yourselves to take care of this root call.

00:02:32.039 --> 00:02:33.879
We don't just want to cover it up.

00:02:35.479 --> 00:02:41.319
If you're ready to break free from outdated one-size-fits-all healthcare, you're in the right place.

00:02:41.800 --> 00:02:48.360
Welcome to Race This Group with Nature Genomics, brought to you by Interflow by Life Balance.

00:02:49.080 --> 00:02:53.319
You're the literature from We're All Unique right down to our DNA.

00:02:53.479 --> 00:02:58.439
So it's no wonder we respond differently to the same medications, food, and environment.

00:02:58.920 --> 00:03:01.159
How do you discover what your body needs?

00:03:01.400 --> 00:03:06.039
Which medications, foods, supplements, or exercises are right for you?

00:03:06.280 --> 00:03:10.919
How can you manage chronic conditions without highly wanting more prescriptions?

00:03:11.159 --> 00:03:12.840
That's what we're here to explore.

00:03:13.000 --> 00:03:15.639
I'm your host, Ashwick's More Lawful, Dr.

00:03:15.960 --> 00:03:23.400
Pharmacy, Metogenomics Specialist, and your partner in reimagining how we personalize care for better outcomes.

00:03:23.639 --> 00:03:30.519
Whether you're a patient or a practitioner, let's raise this script and bring healthcare to higher levels together.

00:03:30.840 --> 00:03:33.879
Because the future of health is personal.

00:03:54.439 --> 00:03:57.719
I think almost all of us have experienced that.

00:03:57.879 --> 00:03:59.479
I thought I was doing okay moment.

00:03:59.639 --> 00:04:04.280
And it can be scary, but the truth is most chronic conditions don't show up overnight.

00:04:04.439 --> 00:04:08.919
They build quietly, slowly, underneath the surface of our busy lives.

00:04:09.079 --> 00:04:12.439
And that's exactly what today's guest is here to help us understand.

00:04:12.599 --> 00:04:15.000
Today, I'm joined by Dr.

00:04:15.159 --> 00:04:28.199
Amanda Atkins, MD, a double board certified internal medicine and lifestyle medicine physician, health strategist, and owner of Atkins Enlightenment Lifestyle Medicine.

00:04:28.360 --> 00:04:39.879
She specializes in holistic health and lifestyle-driven prevention, helping people avoid chronic illnesses like diabetes and heart disease by taking a whole person approach to wellness.

00:04:40.040 --> 00:04:44.040
Her mission is simple: help people become healthier again.

00:04:44.280 --> 00:04:45.240
What I love about Dr.

00:04:45.400 --> 00:04:47.639
Amanda is how personal her approach is.

00:04:47.800 --> 00:04:49.879
She's lived through her own health challenges.

00:04:50.040 --> 00:04:53.560
She knows what it's like to feel overwhelmed and unsure where to start.

00:04:53.800 --> 00:05:03.319
And she has spent decades helping people build health from the inside out, not with extremes, but with simple, sustainable steps that actually fit into real life.

00:05:03.560 --> 00:05:15.240
Today she's sharing the lifestyle patterns that quietly shape your health, the role mindset and spirituality play in prevention, and the three things you can do this week to support your long-term wellness.

00:05:15.399 --> 00:05:16.519
Let's get into it.

00:05:16.839 --> 00:05:17.159
Dr.

00:05:17.399 --> 00:05:20.839
Amanda, welcome to Raise the Script of Neutrogenomics.

00:05:20.920 --> 00:05:22.519
I'm so glad you're here.

00:05:22.839 --> 00:05:24.040
Thank you so much for having me.

00:05:24.120 --> 00:05:25.879
I'm going to look forward to talking to you today.

00:05:26.360 --> 00:05:27.079
Likewise.

00:05:27.240 --> 00:05:29.959
Now, could you tell us a little bit more about you?

00:05:30.279 --> 00:05:34.759
I know your work centers around helping people avoid these chronic illnesses.

00:05:34.839 --> 00:05:41.319
Um, but what led you toward a preventative, holistic approach rather than a traditional treatment-based model?

00:05:42.040 --> 00:05:45.800
Yes, so I always tell people this goes back decades.

00:05:45.959 --> 00:05:49.719
So let me let me do the short version of the decade story.

00:05:49.879 --> 00:05:55.000
So I can tell you that I want to become a physician since I was 12 years old.

00:05:55.240 --> 00:05:58.680
And I just thought that the human body worked miraculously.

00:05:58.839 --> 00:06:03.159
And I always have to give a shout out to my health sixth grade teacher, Dr.

00:06:03.319 --> 00:06:06.439
Ivy, who um at the time it was in the 80s.

00:06:06.519 --> 00:06:08.600
So he really made, you know, learning fun.

00:06:08.759 --> 00:06:12.040
We didn't have all these fancy things with technology back then.

00:06:12.360 --> 00:06:19.719
And he actually set on the ground the cardiovascular system and how the blood flowed through the body.

00:06:19.879 --> 00:06:22.040
And I just thought it was, you know, fascinating.

00:06:22.120 --> 00:06:25.399
No one in my family was in medicine or anything like that.

00:06:25.480 --> 00:06:28.279
And I was just like, from that point, I was like, oh, I want to become a doctor.

00:06:28.439 --> 00:06:29.959
I want to actually help people.

00:06:30.120 --> 00:06:39.560
Um, but the actual preventative part came later, later on after I myself found out I was an obese teenager at the age of 16.

00:06:39.719 --> 00:06:46.439
Um, actually at the age of 14, I weighed 199 pounds and I was like, there's no way I'm going to continue on this journey.

00:06:46.600 --> 00:06:52.680
I have to do something to help myself because in my family was heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure.

00:06:52.839 --> 00:06:58.120
I remember going to my grandmother's hospital when she was about to have open heart surgery.

00:06:58.199 --> 00:06:59.560
And I'm like, I don't want this.

00:06:59.719 --> 00:07:12.759
So the preventive part came from me actually working on myself, and then others um starting to ask me, well, what else can I do besides medication to actually help me with these illnesses and then also not to get these illnesses?

00:07:13.000 --> 00:07:20.600
So that's how I ended up actually in lifestyle medicine after doing internal medicine in residency and everything.

00:07:20.839 --> 00:07:29.399
So I tell people it's it's just been a lifelong journey of my own to actually prevent it for myself and then now prevent it for others.

00:07:29.719 --> 00:07:36.360
You know, I love that because so many people don't realize how preventable these conditions can be.

00:07:36.680 --> 00:07:38.680
And, you know, based on your practice, Dr.

00:07:38.839 --> 00:07:48.279
Amanda, what do you feel are the biggest everyday lifestyle factors driving the rise of conditions like diabetes and heart disease today?

00:07:48.759 --> 00:07:53.000
So, number one, I always tell people is nutrition, what we are putting in our mouth.

00:07:53.159 --> 00:08:01.079
And they people are like, well, you know, I ate this, I ate the same thing that my grandmother ate, and she didn't have this, and she lived to be like 90 years old.

00:08:01.159 --> 00:08:04.680
And I'm like, um, still sometimes the food is not the same.

00:08:04.839 --> 00:08:08.199
We get a lot more processed foods at this point in time.

00:08:08.360 --> 00:08:13.159
Um, the soil is different, and so we just have to take care of our bodies um a little bit better.

00:08:13.319 --> 00:08:17.719
And also, I point out that um back in the day we were moving more.

00:08:18.199 --> 00:08:19.800
Um, now we sit a lot.

00:08:19.959 --> 00:08:22.519
And so people are like, oh, okay, I guess you're right.

00:08:22.680 --> 00:08:36.440
Um, but number one is um I always have people focus on their nutrition first, what they're eating, how much they're eating, and um trying to get them to eat more fiber to definitely decrease the inflammation that's going on in their body.

00:08:36.680 --> 00:08:47.320
And um, I will say out 99% of the time, we could always find something that they can change in their eating style that will help them to prevent these illnesses for themselves.

00:08:47.960 --> 00:08:58.120
Yeah, you know, and and um another thing too that I believe helps is understanding um why they develop these conditions.

00:08:58.200 --> 00:09:02.200
And as you pointed to you, the nutrition indeed is a big factor.

00:09:02.360 --> 00:09:18.840
And once they realize that uh what I am putting into my body, even what I'm exposing myself through, my environment, uh whether it's uh chemicals or stress and relationships or work and job, that all impacts uh those chronic conditions as well.

00:09:19.480 --> 00:09:24.040
So once they understand that why they can they can be empowered to take action.

00:09:24.360 --> 00:09:26.040
Yes, that that is so true.

00:09:26.200 --> 00:09:30.200
So, like you said, there's other many factors um that go into it.

00:09:30.279 --> 00:09:32.919
And that's like the six pillars of lifestyle medicine.

00:09:33.080 --> 00:09:37.399
Um, but like nutrition is just my piece because I was like, that's what helped me the most.

00:09:37.480 --> 00:09:39.159
So I usually focus on that mostly.

00:09:39.320 --> 00:09:46.439
But you're right, there's the stress, the sleep, uh, social connections, all those things make a big difference for people's lives.

00:09:46.679 --> 00:09:47.000
Yeah.

00:09:47.240 --> 00:09:47.720
Now, Dr.

00:09:47.879 --> 00:09:53.159
Amanda, you help people learn to be healthy, which is such a powerful phrase.

00:09:53.320 --> 00:10:00.759
What are some of the foundational skills or habits you find most people were never taught about their health?

00:10:01.720 --> 00:10:06.360
So that one, that everything that they put in their body makes a difference.

00:10:06.519 --> 00:10:14.519
Like people are like, yeah, I know I'm supposed to eat vegetables, but I didn't know that if I don't, then it would make this big of an impact.

00:10:14.679 --> 00:10:19.559
So usually they're like, all of a sudden I have high blood pressure, all of a sudden I have diabetes.

00:10:19.639 --> 00:10:21.559
And I tell them, you know, that's not the case.

00:10:21.720 --> 00:10:28.360
Usually it's something that you've been doing over lifetime that is actually contributing to this inflammation that's going on in your body.

00:10:28.600 --> 00:10:41.080
And they're like, oh, I never even, you know, knew that I've been doing this to my body for years and it just didn't happen, you know, when I turned 40, because like it's always a new decade that someone said, well, it just happened in this decade of life.

00:10:41.159 --> 00:10:45.000
And I'm like, no, it's been happening for decades of your life.

00:10:45.240 --> 00:10:55.480
And when they look at it like that, they're usually more open to making changes and know that the changes won't be immediate because of this been built up over time.

00:10:55.639 --> 00:10:58.039
Because again, the body is miraculous.

00:10:58.120 --> 00:11:04.039
Um, it can stand a whole lot of punishment before it actually tells on you of what's going on.

00:11:04.200 --> 00:11:17.799
So um, when people actually learn that, they're like, okay, I can take this, I can start to make these changes in my life, and knowing that it's going to make a difference, um, sometimes for some people in the short term, but more likely in the longer term.

00:11:18.439 --> 00:11:20.200
Yeah, we need to work with our body.

00:11:20.360 --> 00:11:20.840
You're right.

00:11:21.000 --> 00:11:30.279
The body is so strong and it puts up with a lot until by the time we start having those symptoms and feeling things, that's at the point where it's like, okay, we've I've had enough.

00:11:30.519 --> 00:11:32.600
You know, you've got to do something different.

00:11:32.759 --> 00:11:34.360
You got to lead me differently.

00:11:34.600 --> 00:11:39.559
And that um brings me to something I think your approach actually does so well.

00:11:39.720 --> 00:11:44.600
On you talk about holistic health as the key to preventing chronic disease.

00:11:45.240 --> 00:11:54.600
So I would love for you to define uh holistic health and why is it essential for preventing conditions like diabetes and heart disease.

00:11:55.639 --> 00:12:00.519
So holistic health, I start with you know, the six pillars of lifestyle medicine.

00:12:00.679 --> 00:12:11.399
So we talk about plant, uh predominant nutrition, um, exercise, restorative sleep, um, stress reduction, um, social connection, and getting rid of toxic substances.

00:12:11.559 --> 00:12:19.480
Um, but the unique thing that I believe I bring to this is like when people are making their behavioral changes and bring in the spiritual aspect.

00:12:19.720 --> 00:12:24.279
Um, because I tell people, you know, we are, you know, soul, body, and spirit.

00:12:24.439 --> 00:12:30.360
And most of the time we're focusing mostly on the body and not necessarily the spirit and the soul part.

00:12:30.439 --> 00:12:37.720
And when we actually make a transition in our mind and thinking in that aspect, people are more likely to make the changes.

00:12:37.879 --> 00:12:46.439
So when we take care of this earthly suit and we call it the body, we're more able to do actually our spiritual work that we actually been set here to do.

00:12:46.679 --> 00:12:49.240
And that's why I call it like holistic health.

00:12:49.320 --> 00:12:54.759
Like sometimes people think of it just as the body, but I also bring in the spiritual and soul aspect of it.

00:12:55.159 --> 00:12:55.720
I love that.

00:12:55.879 --> 00:12:56.600
I love that.

00:12:56.759 --> 00:13:04.200
Now, for uh someone who's listening, you know, they're I know on my um my listeners, they tend to be busy, busy women.

00:13:04.360 --> 00:13:07.320
Um, they're overwhelmed, uh, they're unsure where to start.

00:13:07.559 --> 00:13:12.759
What are three simple, sustainable steps they can take this week to lower their risk of chronic illness?

00:13:12.919 --> 00:13:13.960
What would you say?

00:13:14.279 --> 00:13:18.600
So, number one, add in more vegetables to every single meal.

00:13:18.759 --> 00:13:21.799
Most of the time we are fiber, fiber, fiber deficient.

00:13:21.879 --> 00:13:28.120
And if you just add it in, don't have to worry about taking things away, but just add in some type of vegetable to every meal.

00:13:28.279 --> 00:13:32.120
Um, the next thing I would say is move your body every single day.

00:13:32.279 --> 00:13:34.279
So we want to be up and moving.

00:13:34.360 --> 00:13:44.600
And I always like snicker when I say that because most time we're sitting when I'm saying this to people and they're like, yes, you say move your body, but you want to be getting up like every hour.

00:13:44.679 --> 00:13:48.039
I like love my Apple Watch that like reminds me to get up.

00:13:48.120 --> 00:13:56.279
You've been sitting at the computer too long, get up and move around because we are actually um mammals, we're meant to move, we're supposed to be moving around.

00:13:56.519 --> 00:14:08.279
And then the last thing is to bring in that spiritual aspect to do something to actually reduce that everyday stress that we have because it's that chronic stress that is causing um a lot of the illnesses for us, also.

00:14:08.679 --> 00:14:14.679
So you want to do something like prayer, meditation, journaling, and you want to do that every single day.

00:14:14.759 --> 00:14:18.600
You don't want to wait till something um comes overwhelming.

00:14:18.759 --> 00:14:25.159
And it doesn't have to be anything um, you know, spectacular, you don't have to have this, you know, wonderful journal.

00:14:25.320 --> 00:14:36.120
You can take a scrap piece of paper, and actually, one of my meditation teachers taught me this um scrap people scrap piece of paper, write whatever going down right now, and then just ball it up and throw it away.

00:14:36.200 --> 00:14:37.480
Like I'm done with that thought.

00:14:37.559 --> 00:14:38.360
I'm done with it.

00:14:38.519 --> 00:14:43.720
And that's the easiest thing because otherwise, if you think you have to have this journal, you have to have this music, you have to have something going on.

00:14:43.799 --> 00:14:48.039
No, the scrap piece of paper that's crap, I'm talking too fast, I'm getting too excited.

00:14:48.200 --> 00:14:53.720
The scrap piece of paper that's just sitting there can do wonders for your overall well-being.

00:14:53.799 --> 00:14:55.799
And so don't overthink it.

00:14:56.039 --> 00:14:58.439
Write down what's going on and just go with it.

00:14:58.519 --> 00:15:01.799
So those three simple things you can do, and you can do them today.

00:15:02.840 --> 00:15:03.399
I love that.

00:15:03.480 --> 00:15:03.960
I love that.

00:15:04.120 --> 00:15:10.519
The vegetables, the uh movements and the spiritual aspects, and that ties into the mindset.

00:15:11.159 --> 00:15:14.600
Um I believe it has a huge role in prevention.

00:15:15.960 --> 00:15:28.919
And in the my program, it's one of the it's the first thing that I discuss with them because we have these self-limited beliefs, we have they have so many things that they're bringing with them along their health journey.

00:15:29.159 --> 00:15:36.039
And I know you share a lot about being um intentional, intentional living and becoming your healthiest self.

00:15:36.360 --> 00:15:46.439
Uh, so I'm curious, uh, from your perspective, how much of preventing chronic illness is mindset and how can women shift into that healthier identity?

00:15:47.639 --> 00:15:57.080
So it is the like you said, the first aspect that has to change because people know to eat vegetables, people know to exercise, but do they do it?

00:15:57.240 --> 00:16:01.799
And we always wonder like, why are you not doing what you know will help?

00:16:02.039 --> 00:16:05.000
And like you said, it's something that's holding them back.

00:16:05.159 --> 00:16:11.480
And when I actually figured out for myself, like this, I know what I'm doing now is going to cause harm.

00:16:11.639 --> 00:16:14.759
It's not gonna get me where I want, and I call it my own conviction.

00:16:14.919 --> 00:16:26.200
Once you understand the own your own conviction and what you're here to do, and that the path you're going down is not gonna lead you there, then that's where you can actually have that mindset shift.

00:16:26.439 --> 00:16:43.399
And so that's why I bring in the the spiritual aspect, um, especially with you know holy scriptures, when people actually pull those together and like realize what they're doing and actually um actually taking care of their own health is actually a form of worship.

00:16:43.480 --> 00:17:01.879
Um, if you are, you know, a Christian, like that's what I am for believers, and that's usually where I work with, um, that they look at it a lot different, like, okay, um, when I do certain things, this not is actually causing health, and it's not actually helping me to actually do a form of worship that I would agree with, you know.

00:17:02.120 --> 00:17:16.200
So if they if they look at it that way, then I see that most of my patients and clients actually start to make that shift and to also know to give themselves grace that it's not going to be um a total 180 um within the first day.

00:17:16.440 --> 00:17:24.519
But as you continue on like and just be more conscious of what you're doing and what you're thinking, um, then in the long run, it will be there.

00:17:25.080 --> 00:17:27.160
Oh, yes, that's great, great advice.

00:17:27.240 --> 00:17:27.880
I love that.

00:17:28.039 --> 00:17:29.080
Now, um, Dr.

00:17:29.240 --> 00:17:33.240
Amanda, can you tell us about the holistic health programs that you offer?

00:17:33.400 --> 00:17:35.320
What does it look like to work with you?

00:17:35.400 --> 00:17:38.200
How do you support people in creating lasting change?

00:17:38.600 --> 00:17:43.400
Yeah, so um I offer with my coaching program a 12-week program.

00:17:43.480 --> 00:17:54.120
And like I said, the first thing that we do is to focus on, you know, mindset, like you're saying you do, but we also focus on adding in those veggies.

00:17:54.200 --> 00:17:56.600
Um, so that's why I always tell people that's the first step to do.

00:17:56.680 --> 00:18:06.920
So when you actually look at your eating plan, and I always want people to see what they're currently doing and then see what they can add in, because the we none of us like taking away things.

00:18:07.080 --> 00:18:10.120
So, what can we add in to make you feel more whole?

00:18:10.200 --> 00:18:18.840
Um, and then um actually have people do a whole food plant-based kind of like cleanse is another step that we do.

00:18:18.920 --> 00:18:26.440
Um, because people sometimes are very hesitant to give up their animal products, I'll say.

00:18:26.600 --> 00:18:29.560
Um, they're like, I don't know if this will be a good thing or not.

00:18:29.720 --> 00:18:42.120
But they will actually see that they actually feel better, they rest better, they have better mental clarity when they actually take that and just eat their whole foods and just give that positive reinforcement for them to keep going.

00:18:42.280 --> 00:18:49.720
Um, and then as we get further along in the journey, um, say like month two, then that's when we look at other aspects of our health.

00:18:49.800 --> 00:18:56.280
So that's when the other six pillars are the other five pillars of lifestyle medicine come in to see really where they're struggling.

00:18:56.440 --> 00:19:01.080
Um, so like I have one lady that has like stress issues and then one like like sleep.

00:19:01.160 --> 00:19:08.440
And so then we really phone uh focus in on one of those other aspects of the uh pillars and then go from there.

00:19:08.920 --> 00:19:09.960
Okay, wow.

00:19:10.200 --> 00:19:13.560
This is work that's so important and definitely needed.

00:19:13.720 --> 00:19:17.320

00:19:17.480 --> 00:19:23.000
