[00:00 - 02:23 ] Introduction to Christa’s Approach

• Christa’s goal is to empower patients to understand and trust their bodies


• Health should not be dependent on a practitioner's long-term


• Empowered health is rooted in understanding what heals or harms the body

[02:24 - 05:51 ] Digestion and Detoxification

• The first step is digestion, which is essential for nutrient absorption and toxin excretion


• Hydration and diet form the foundation of good digestion


• Supplements like probiotics and NAC can support gut health and detox pathways

[05:52 - 08:39 ] Hormonal Balance

• Hormonal balance extends beyond sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone to cortisol, insulin, and thyroid


• Stabilizing blood glucose through diet improves thyroid function


• Hormone replacement therapies are more effective once detoxification is addressed

[08:40 - 11:11 ] Cellular Health

• Cellular health determines how well the body uses nutrients to create energy


• Organic acid testing reveals how efficiently your body metabolizes fats and carbohydrates


• Energy levels, sleep quality, and brain function reflect the health of your cells

[11:12 - 13:59 ] Long-Term Healing vs. Quick Wins

• Health is a long-term process, but patients often experience quick wins like better sleep and improved digestion


• Patience is required for deeper changes like hormone regulation, which can take 3-6 months


• Trusting the process and listening to your body are key

[14:00 ] Practical Steps for Beginners

• Start with foundational habits: drink water, eat whole foods, and prioritize sleep


• Supplements such as vitamin D, magnesium, and probiotics support these foundations


• Accountability from friends or family can help maintain new health habits
