Episode 69 - Dr. Sheila Kenneally - The Hidden Dangers of Fatty Liver Disease

MEET THE GUEST Sheila Keneally is a naturopath specializing in biliary health and terrain-based medicine. She takes a holistic approach by considering the body’s health history, symptomology, mindset, and present-day data through functional testing to identify dysfunction and facilitate true healing. Sheila’s work is grounded in understanding the bi-directional relationships within the body, restoring coherence across systems, with a particular focus on liver health as a key, but not singular, perspective. Her goal is to support long-term wellness through comprehensive and personalized care.WHAT WE TALK ABOUT - Sheila’s personal health journey with liver dysfunction and how it inspired her path as a naturopath and biochemistry expert.- Why the liver is one of the most overburdened organs today, and how it influences fatigue, hormone balance, digestion, and detox.- What fatty liver disease actually is, why it’s increasingly common even in children and lean adults and why many people don’t know they have it.- The role of mold, heavy metals, pesticides, and other toxins in silent liver damage and systemic dysfunction.- How liver health is connected to PMS, thyroid issues, cholesterol imbalances, and constipation and why it’s often missed in mainstream care.- Common symptoms of liver stress even when labs appear normal, including alcohol intolerance, estrogen dominance, and bloating.- Why women are more affected by liver burden due to iron accumulation, hormonal cycling, and environmental exposure.- How post-COVID Epstein-Barr virus reactivation affects the liver and drives lingering symptoms.- The difference between standard liver panels and deeper functional testing that can detect dysfunction earlier.- How stress, EMFs, and lifestyle factors increase toxic load and reduce detox capacity.- The progression of fatty liver disease and how to prevent it from advancing to fibrosis or cirrhosis.- Foundational strategies to begin healing the liver and how Sheila guides clients through this in her Deep Health Reset program.- How Sheila supports both health seekers and practitioners through education and testing.EPISODE RESOURCES PrenuvoFull-body MRI scans to detect disease early.
