Healing by Design: Dr. Jenny Pfleghaar on Faith, Functional Medicine, and Finding True Wellness

In this powerful episode of What Are You Made Of?, host Mike “C-Roc” welcomes Dr. Jenny Pfleghaar, a double board-certified physician in Emergency and Integrative Medicine, for a conversation that bridges faith, science, and true healing.Dr. Jen shares her personal journey from working in the emergency room to discovering the deeper layers of wellness that conventional medicine often overlooks. After being diagnosed with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, she refused to accept the idea that she’d suffer for life—and instead pursued root-cause healing through integrative medicine. Her story of reversing her autoimmune disease, restoring energy, and finding peace through faith is both inspiring and deeply practical.Together, Mike "C-Roc" and Dr. Jen dive into what it really means to heal—discussing gut health, mold exposure, hormone balance, trauma recovery, and the power of the mind-body-spirit connection. Dr. Jen explains why so many patients remain stuck in cycles of symptoms and medication, and how aligning with God’s design for the body leads to lasting wellness.Dr. Jen Pfleghaar earned her medical degree from Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine, completed residency at St. Vincent’s Mercy Hospital, and fellowship at the Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine. Through her practice, Healthy by Dr. Jen, she provides virtual care and shares education as @integrativedrmom. She lives on a mini farm in Tennessee with her husband and four children, where she enjoys cheering at her kids’ games, lifting weights, reading Scripture, and tending to her chickens.This episode is a reminder that true health begins when body, mind, and spirit are in harmony—and when we surrender to the healing God designed for us.Website-http://www.healthybydrjen.com Social Media Links/Handles:https://www.facebook.com/IntegrativeDrMomhttps://www.instagram.com/integrativedrmom/?hl=enhttps://www.youtube.com/@integrativedrmomhttps://x.com/integrativedrma
