Nurse Doza explores the power of Vitamin B6 in this episode of the Ingredient Series. From mood and sleep to stress resilience and neurotransmitter production, B6 is a silent workhorse most people are deficient in. Learn why the form P5P matters and how it helps support calm, focused energy. ✅ 5 Key Takeaways  • Vitamin B6 is critical for neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine  • Supports mood, sleep, and stress regulation  • Creates “calm energy,” not stimulation  • Best taken in the form P5P (pyridoxal-5-phosphate)  • Included in MSW Nutrition’s Zen formula 🧪 Featured Product: Zen by MSW Nutrition A calming blend with clinical-grade P5P to support mood, sleep, and neurotransmitters. 👉 https://www.mswnutrition.com/products/zen

Good Poops Protocol –is a powerful combination of supplements designed to support gut health, metabolism, and daily detox. One of the key ingredients is Berberine Plus, which works like a GLP-1 by helping control blood sugar, curb cravings, and improve insulin sensitivity—essential factors when building muscle and burning fat through resistance training.  👉 Get Good Poops Protocol here: https://mswnutrition.com/products/good-poops-protocol Discover why resistance training is the best exercise for weight loss. Learn how lifting weights builds lean muscle mass, lowers blood sugar naturally, burns fat for energy, requires minimal equipment, and boosts sex hormone production for sustainable metabolic health and long-term results. 5 KEY TAKEAWAYS Resistance training builds lean muscle mass – Skeletal muscles function as metabolic organs that burn more calories at rest. After six months of consistent weight training, larger muscles increase your resting metabolic rate, helping you burn more calories throughout the day even when you're not exercising. Lifting weights lowers blood sugar naturally – Resistance training improves blood glucose control and insulin sensitivity by directing sugar into muscles for energy and muscle building rather than storing it as fat in the liver. This makes it one of the most effective natural strategies for preventing and managing type 2 diabetes. Weight training burns fat for energy long after your workout – Studies show resistance exercise creates genetic signals that jump-start fat-burning processes in fat cells, with elevated energy expenditure and fat burning continuing for at least 24 hours post-workout in both men and women. You don't need expensive equipment or a gym membership – Bodyweight exercises like squats, push-ups, planks, walking lunges, and yoga provide effective resistance training using your own body weight. A simple kettlebell at home can maximize your workout efficiency in just 20 minutes. Resistance training increases sex hormone production – High-intensity resistance exercise significantly elevates testosterone levels in both men and women, while 12 weeks of resistance training improves estrogen levels in postmenopausal women, supporting reproductive health, bone density, and overall metabolic function. JOIN THE SCHOOL Struggling to stay consistent with resistance training or unsure how to structure your workouts for maximum fat loss? You're not alone. Many people start strong but lose momentum without proper guidance and community support. Inside the School of Doza, you'll connect with others on the same weight loss and fitness journey, get personalized answers during our Wednesday "Ask Me Anything" sessions (functioning like group consults where we troubleshoot your specific challenges), and receive ongoing accountability to help you build sustainable exercise habits that actually stick.

Discover the five science-backed reasons you're always tired and what to do about it. From adrenal dysfunction and chronic inflammation to nutritional deficiencies, sunlight exposure, and hormone decline—learn how to identify your fatigue triggers and restore your energy naturally with actionable lab work, lifestyle changes, and targeted supplementation. FEATURED PRODUCT Zen, featuring bovine adrenal gland extracts, is designed to support adrenal function and help regulate cortisol levels—the key hormone controlling your stress response, sleep quality, and daily energy. If you're always tired despite getting enough sleep, Zen provides the targeted adrenal support your body needs to restore balanced cortisol production and reclaim the calm, sustained energy you've been missing. Get zen here: https://mswnutrition.com/products/zen 5 KEY TAKEAWAYS Adrenal dysfunction is the primary cause of chronic fatigue - When stress overactivates your adrenal glands for years, cortisol production becomes imbalanced, disrupting sleep and draining energy even after a full night's rest. Chronic inflammation creates debilitating tiredness - Conditions like insulin resistance, autoimmune disorders, liver issues, and chronic pain keep your body in a constant state of metabolic stress that depletes energy reserves. Nutritional deficiencies directly impact energy production - Deficiencies in B vitamins (especially B6, B9, and B12), choline, and vitamin D impair neurotransmitter production and cellular energy, with genetic factors like MTHFR compounding the problem. Morning sunlight is non-negotiable for energy regulation - Just 10-15 minutes of morning sun exposure produces 10,000 IU of vitamin D, increases serotonin and cortisol naturally, and sets your circadian rhythm for better sleep and daytime energy. Hormone decline accelerates fatigue after age 40 - Low testosterone in men and declining estrogen in women contribute significantly to persistent tiredness, but addressing adrenal health should always come before hormone replacement. JOIN THE SCHOOL Recovering from adrenal fatigue requires more than just breathing exercises and supplements—your diet plays a crucial role in cortisol regulation and energy stability. That's why we're launching a 6-week "No Grains. No Sugar." class starting Thursday, January 15th. Eliminating grains and sugar helps stabilize blood sugar, reduce inflammation, and take stress off your adrenal glands—giving them the space they need to recover. Beyond the structured classes, the School of Doza community connects you with others working through their own health transformations. Share what's working (and what's not), get accountability for your 90-day adrenal reset, and have your questions answered during our Wednesday "Ask Me Anything" sessions that function like group consults. Whether you need help interpreting your DHEAS results, troubleshooting your HRV tracking, or figuring out why you're still crashing at 2 PM, the community and weekly sessions give you direct access to guidance and support.

The Secret Sauce for Shedding Pounds isn't just about diet or workouts—it’s your liver. In this episode, Nurse Doza breaks down how your liver impacts fat loss through detox, blood sugar regulation, hormone balance, inflammation reduction, and mindset. If you’re stuck in your weight loss journey, your liver may be the key. 5 KEY TAKEAWAYS The liver produces antioxidants like glutathione that directly reduce inflammation and support fat metabolism. Hormone balance—especially estrogen and cortisol regulation—depends on liver health. Blood sugar regulation starts with the liver, which stores and processes glucose after meals. Fat cells become inflamed without proper liver function, leading to leptin resistance and weight gain. Sustainable fat loss requires mindset shifts—and liver support helps you regain control.

Discover the seven critical alcohol effects on body systems, from blood sugar disruption and gut inflammation to hormone imbalances and liver stress. Whether you're an occasional drinker or weekend regular, understanding how alcohol impacts your health—from brain function to cancer risk—helps you make informed choices and recover smarter. FEATURED PRODUCT NAC+ – featuring N-Acetyl Cysteine and selenium, is specifically designed to support your liver's ability to produce powerful antioxidants that combat oxidative stress from alcohol consumption. As discussed in this episode, alcohol depletes critical nutrients like selenium while generating excessive cellular damage. NAC+ helps your liver reduce oxidative stress, supports detoxification pathways, and replenishes the exact minerals that alcohol depletes—making it essential for anyone who drinks, whether occasionally or regularly. get it here:  https://mswnutrition.com/products/nac   5 KEY TAKEAWAYS Blood Sugar Disruption – Alcohol converts directly into blood sugar and is stored as fat in the liver, contributing to pre-diabetes and fatty liver disease that affects one in four people worldwide. Gut & Liver Inflammation – Alcohol acts as a toxin that damages gut lining, disrupts the microbiome, causes leaky gut, and generates oxidative stress that your liver must work overtime to neutralize. Neurotransmitter Imbalance – While alcohol temporarily boosts serotonin, dopamine, and GABA, it severely disrupts sleep quality, increases anxiety and depression risk, and prevents proper brain detoxification during rest. Mineral Depletion – Alcohol's diuretic effect causes critical loss of selenium, zinc, magnesium, and potassium—minerals essential for liver function, antioxidant production, and cellular protection. Hormone & Cancer Risk – Long-term alcohol consumption suppresses testosterone, increases estrogen through aromatization, and is classified as a carcinogen linked to multiple cancer types including liver, breast, and colorectal cancers. TIMESTAMPS 00:00 – START 02:00 – Why alcohol is classified as a severe toxin 05:00 – Effect #1: Blood sugar disruption and fatty liver development 09:00 – Effect #2: Inflammation, leaky gut, and microbiome destruction 13:00 – Effect #3: Liver stress and oxidative damage 17:00 – Effect #4: Neurotransmitter imbalance and sleep disruption 22:00 – Effect #5: Electrolyte and mineral depletion (selenium & zinc) 26:00 – Effect #6: Hormone disruption and testosterone suppression 29:00 – Effect #7: Cancer risk and carcinogenic properties 32:00 – Mediterranean diet, resveratrol, and supplement alternatives 35:00 – Final recommendations for liver support and recovery RESOURCES Diabetes and Alcohol – https://www.mountsinai.org/health-library/selfcare-instructions/diabetes-and-alcohol Does Alcohol Cause Inflammation – https://www.verywellhealth.com/does-alcohol-cause-inflammation-8403645 Alcohol Consumption and Antioxidant Defense – https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7357092/ Alcohol and Brain Neuroadaptive Changes – https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11718584/ Sex and Stress Hormones in Alcohol Consumption – https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7374925/ Alcohol and Aromatization – https://ai.hubermanlab.com/s/6PV5jyTa How Does Alcohol Affect the Microbiome – https://www.mdanderson.org/cancerwise/how-does-alcohol-affect-the-microbiome.h00-159696756.html CONNECT 🔗 Connect with Nurse Doza: JOIN MY SCHOOL for $5: community.schoolofdoza.com/signup YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwcKyagDi468WscAOWM5VHA Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nursedoza/ Website: http://www.nursedoza.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonathan-mendoza-dc-aprn-np-c-0609a038/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@nursedoza Twitter: https://twitter.com/nursedoza

Learn exactly how the flu makes you sick and how to interrupt each phase of infection. Discover the science-backed supplements that act as "fire extinguishers" for inflammation, why vitamin D and NAC are essential during flu season, and how to support your immune system before, during, and after viral infections to recover faster and stay healthier year-round. 5 KEY TAKEAWAYS The flu is a viral infection that never truly leaves your body – it can lay dormant and flare up during times of stress, making prevention and immune support crucial year-round, not just during illness. Vitamin D and NAC are your immune system's "fire extinguishers" – both reduce pro-inflammatory cytokines (like TNF-α and IL-6) that cause severe lung inflammation during flu infections, helping you recover faster and experience less severe symptoms. NAC does triple duty during flu season – it thins mucus for easier breathing, reduces inflammation in the lungs, and boosts glutathione production (your body's master antioxidant) to fight viral infections more effectively. Most people are deficient in the nutrients needed to fight flu – vitamin D deficiency affects most of the population, and low levels of glutathione, zinc, and selenium make you more vulnerable to severe viral infections and slower recovery. Viral infections deplete your adrenal glands – the constant stress response during and after flu infection tanks your HRV and DHEAS levels, requiring adrenal support to fully recover and prevent long-term fatigue or autoimmune-like symptoms. FEATURED PRODUCT The D - provides 5,000 IU of vitamin D3, which acts as a "fire extinguisher" for inflammatory cytokines released during viral infections, reducing lung inflammation and supporting your body's natural immune response.  Find it here: https://mswnutrition.com/products/the-d TIMESTAMPS 00:00 – START 02:45 – Why the flu is a viral infection that never leaves your body 05:30 – How respiratory viruses spread and enter your system 08:15 – NAC: The game-changer for mucus, allergies, and lung inflammation 12:40 – Why vitamin D is your immune system's most powerful tool 16:20 – The science of inflammatory cytokines and how they damage your lungs 20:10 – Vitamin D studies: 10,000 IU protocol for flu prevention 24:35 – NAC and glutathione: Your body's master antioxidants explained 28:50 – Why people with fatty liver get sicker from viral infections 32:15 – Lysine, zinc, and selenium: Additional immune support nutrients 36:40 – The IV therapy protocol for sick patients in clinical practice 40:20 – Supporting your adrenal glands after flu infection 43:15 – HRV tracking and how to measure your body's stress response 46:00 – Product recommendations: The D, NAC+, Zen, and Gut Powder RESOURCES NAC Benefits for Health – https://www.drugs.com/medical-answers/nac-benefit-health-3573010/ Evidence that Vitamin D Supplementation Could Reduce Risk of Influenza and COVID-19 Infections and Deaths – https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231123/ Vitamin D and Respiratory Health – https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4488782/ The Antioxidant Role of Non-Vitamin, Non-Mineral Micronutrients – https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8234027/ N-Acetylcysteine and Respiratory Diseases – https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11278452/ The Role of Zinc in Antiviral Immunity – https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8349606/ Selenium Supplementation and Influenza Vaccine Response – https://brieflands.com/journals/jkums/articles/69746 Selenium and Viral Infections – https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6769590/ Immune Activation and Autonomic Nervous System in Post-Viral Fatigue – https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10795785/ Long COVID and Heart Rate Variability Study – https://www.cidrap.umn.edu/covid-19/long-covid-changes-heart-rate-variability-study-suggests CONNECT 🔗 Connect with Nurse Doza: JOIN MY SCHOOL for $5: community.schoolofdoza.com/signup YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwcKyagDi468WscAOWM5VHA Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nursedoza/ Website: http://www.nursedoza.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonathan-mendoza-dc-aprn-np-c-0609a038/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@nursedoza Twitter: https://twitter.com/nursedoza

Are your vitamins actually working? Discover five critical red flags that could mean your multivitamin quality is low, poorly absorbed, or causing more harm than good. From synthetic ingredients to dangerous fillers, learn how to choose supplements that truly support your health—not drain your wallet. This episode reveals what to look for on labels and why bioavailability matters more than you think. 5 KEY TAKEAWAYS Bioavailability Matters Most – Not all vitamin forms are created equal. Cyanocobalamin (cheap B12) can trigger inflammation and anxiety, while methylcobalamin is properly absorbed and utilized by your body. Always check for methylated forms of B vitamins and quality mineral chelates. Artificial Dyes Are Dangerous – Red Dye 40 and other fillers serve no nutritional purpose and are linked to inflammation, digestive imbalances, ADHD symptoms, and potential colon cancer risk. Up to 83% of supplements on Amazon contain unexpected ingredients or lack what's promised on the label. Under-Dosing Is Widespread – Most store-brand multivitamins contain trace amounts that provide no therapeutic benefit. For example, 800 IU of vitamin D won't raise deficient levels—you need at least 5,000 IU daily with K2 for optimal absorption and immune function. Folic Acid vs. Methylfolate Is Critical – If you have MTHFR gene mutations (extremely common), synthetic folic acid can cause depression, fatigue, and digestive issues. Your body needs methylfolate—the active form that actually works, especially important for pregnant women and those with chronic health conditions. Amino Acids Are Non-Negotiable – A true multivitamin should include amino acids like choline, arginine, methionine, lysine, taurine, and N-acetylcysteine. These are the building blocks of DNA and protein that support detoxification, energy production, and overall cellular function. FEATURED PRODUCT Good Poops Protocol – Even the highest-quality vitamins won't work if your gut can't absorb them. The Good Poops Protocol is designed to repair and support your digestive tract, ensuring optimal nutrient absorption and breakdown.  Get it here: https://mswnutrition.com/pages/good-poops-org TIMESTAMPS 00:00 – START – Welcome and episode overview 02:15 – Introduction to MSW Nutrition and the importance of quality supplements 04:30 – Red Flag #1: Poor bioavailability and why methylcobalamin beats cyanocobalamin 08:45 – The magnesium problem: glycinate vs. oxide and how to choose 11:20 – Red Flag #2: Artificial colors, dyes, and dangerous fillers in supplements 14:40 – Why MSW Nutrition supplements aren't on Amazon 17:30 – Red Flag #3: Under-dosing and why most multivitamins fail 20:15 – The vitamin D3 deficiency crisis and the importance of K2 23:45 – Red Flag #4: Synthetic folic acid vs. methylfolate and MTHFR mutations 27:30 – How MTHFR testing changed everything for proper supplementation 30:20 – Red Flag #5: The absence of amino acids in most multivitamins 33:10 – Why glutathione in oral form is a game-changer 35:45 – Final thoughts: Don't waste money on inferior supplements RESOURCES Example of Low-Quality Multivitamin Label – Common store-brand showing cyanocobalamin and synthetic ingredients https://www.naturemade.com/products/advanced-multivitamin-gummies-for-her?variant=41844880539787#pid=2 Red Dye 40 Health Risks – Research on inflammation, allergies, and hyperactivity links https://www.health.com/red-dye-40-8610527 Safety Concerns with Amazon Supplements – Study showing 83% contain unexpected ingredients https://www.verywellhealth.com/safety-of-amazon-supplements-6500961 Hidden Dangers of Buying Supplements from Amazon – Counterfeit products and contamination risks https://www.msn.com/en-us/health/nutrition/the-hidden-dangers-of-buying-supplements-from-amazon/ar-AA1FF5vB MSW Nutrition Boost Multivitamin – High-quality example with methylated vitamins and amino acids https://mswnutrition.com/collections/best-sellers-1/products/boost?variant=29599579078728 CONNECT 🔗 Connect with Nurse Doza: JOIN MY SCHOOL for $5: community.schoolofdoza.com/signup YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwcKyagDi468WscAOWM5VHA Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nursedoza/ Website: http://www.nursedoza.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonathan-mendoza-dc-aprn-np-c-0609a038/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@nursedoza Twitter: https://twitter.com/nursedoza

Discover which morning vitamins maximize your energy and which ones sabotage your sleep. Learn the optimal timing for vitamin D3, B vitamins, NAD+, resveratrol, and magnesium threonate to support your body's natural rhythms. This episode reveals how strategic supplement timing can transform your daily performance and overall health without relying on coffee. (497 characters) 5 KEY TAKEAWAYS Vitamin D3 is essential for morning routines – Taking 5,000 IU of vitamin D3 with K2 first thing in the morning boosts immune function and mood by mimicking natural sunlight exposure when your body needs it most. B vitamins power daytime energy production – B12, B9 (folate), B6, and B5 are water-soluble vitamins that support cellular energy, focus, and neurotransmitter production throughout the day without causing afternoon crashes like caffeine. NAD+ injections provide immediate cellular energy – This molecule naturally declines with age but can be replenished through injections that deliver hours or even days of sustained energy, making it particularly beneficial for menopausal women and anyone experiencing fatigue. Resveratrol supports mitochondrial function – This powerful antioxidant enhances energy production at the cellular level, supports cardiovascular health, and helps regulate blood sugar when taken during active daylight hours. Magnesium threonate protects brain function – Unlike other forms of magnesium, threonate crosses the blood-brain barrier to reduce neuroinflammation, enhance focus, and support cognitive performance throughout your demanding day.

Learn how to restore your adrenal function and reclaim your energy with this comprehensive 90-day reset plan. Nurse Doza maps out a practical approach to reversing adrenal fatigue through measurable testing (DHEAS and HRV), lifestyle modifications including belly breathing and sunlight exposure, and targeted supplementation to support your body's stress response and energy production. Character count: 394 5 KEY TAKEAWAYS Measure Your Adrenal Function: DHEAS blood testing (optimal range: 200-250) provides a stable measurement of adrenal function over time without daily variation, while Heart Rate Variability (HRV) tracks your recent stress response and nervous system health in real-time. Activate Rest and Digest Mode: Belly breathing (diaphragmatic breathing) actively shifts your nervous system from fight-or-flight to rest-and-digest mode by increasing parasympathetic activity, lowering cortisol levels, and improving HRV with just 4-7 minutes daily. Morning Sunlight Resets Your System: Getting sunlight within the first hour of waking naturally boosts cortisol production, increases serotonin synthesis, provides vitamin D, and sets your circadian rhythm for better sleep—aim for 30-45 minutes of direct sunlight without sunglasses. Support with Targeted Nutrition: Bovine adrenal gland extracts provide building blocks for your own adrenal glands to resume normal function, a practice used successfully since the early 1900s, while B vitamins (especially B5 and B6) help regulate cortisol production and support energy metabolism. Address Underlying Trauma: Unresolved trauma from childhood or adulthood chronically activates your stress response and suppresses adrenal function—addressing it through therapies like CBT, EMDR, or somatic experiencing is essential for long-term adrenal recovery and nervous system regulation. FEATURED PRODUCT Zen – featuring bovine adrenal gland extracts, is designed to support adrenal function and help regulate cortisol production—key factors in restoring energy and recovering from burnout as discussed in this episode. The bovine adrenal gland provides the building blocks for your own adrenal glands to resume normal function, while B vitamins (especially B5 and B6) support healthy stress response. Zen is the gentle, targeted support your adrenals need during this 90-day reset.
