The Deeper Healing Podcast

Over the last century, tens of thousands of new chemicals have been introduced into our environment, water, and food supply. For many navigating chronic illness, this modern "total body burden" is the missing link to understanding their symptoms.In this episode of The Deeper Healing Podcast, hosts Danielle Howley and Tiffany Jackson, ND, sit down with renowned advocate Dr. Sherri Tenpenny and Deeper Healing's Medical Director, Dr. Michael Bauerschmidt. The doctors explore the functional medicine concept of "depuration" (cellular cleansing) versus simple detoxification, explaining why safe cleansing requires turning fat-soluble toxins into water-soluble compounds before they can be eliminated.The conversation dives deep into how environmental exposures interact with foundational body systems. Dr. Tenpenny shares her perspectives on foreign matter and the 40-year half-life of mercury, while Dr. Bauerschmidt explains how glyphosate may interact with aluminum to cross the blood-brain barrier, and how everyday halogens like bromine can interfere with the body's natural iodine receptors. From addressing heavy metals stored in bone tissue to acknowledging the physical impact of emotional toxicity, this episode offers an eye-opening perspective on investigating the upstream root causes of chronic illness.WHO THIS EPISODE IS FOR• Patients curious about functional and integrative approaches to environmental toxicity and heavy metal exposure.• Anyone exploring their options for preconception health and preparing for a healthy pregnancy.• People who want to understand more about the possible role of everyday chemical exposures, glyphosate, and halogens (like bromine) in chronic illness.• Individuals interested in the clinical difference between trendy "detoxes" and foundational "depuration."• Patients dealing with chronic symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, or thyroid issues who are seeking additional perspectives on potential root causes.The Next Steps:⁠Want to take the first step towards Deeper Healing?⁠ Learn more →⁠ https://deeperhealing.com/⁠ Support patients in need: The Deeper Healing Foundation →⁠ https://deeperhealing.com/foundation/⁠Wondering about your own body burden?

Kelly’s struggle with severe skin sensitivities started when she was young, beginning with reactions to aluminum deodorants and eventually progressing into debilitating eczema on her hands. The condition became so severe that she wore white gloves daily because the skin on her hands would crack and bleed through the fabric.In this episode of The Deeper Healing Podcast, Danielle Howley and Dr. Bauerschmidt discuss Kelly’s personal recovery experience and the possible root causes uncovered during her evaluation. The conversation explores Kelly’s childhood exposure living near an aluminum factory and how environmental medicine practitioners think about long-term toxic burden in the body.Dr. Bauerschmidt explains the theory that aluminum can remain stored in the bones for decades, gradually re-releasing into the body over time. The episode also explores the functional medicine concept of “finding the arsonist instead of just putting out the fire” — looking for possible contributors to chronic immune dysfunction instead of focusing solely on symptom suppression.Kelly shares her personal experience of significant improvement after addressing her unique body burden of metals, molds, and chemicals. Her experience is one person’s story, shared to offer information and perspective — not as a representation of typical results or medical advice.About the GuestKelly struggled with severe skin sensitivities since childhood, which eventually progressed into debilitating eczema on her hands. Her condition became so severe that she wore white gloves daily because the skin barrier on her hands would crack and bleed.After being told her condition was incurable by conventional standards and facing the possibility of lifelong immunosuppressants, Kelly pursued a functional medicine approach at Deeper Healing Medical Wellness Center.During her evaluation, the team explored possible environmental contributors to her symptoms, including childhood exposure near an aluminum factory. Her protocol focused on addressing her unique body burden of metals, molds, and chemicals.Today, Kelly reports significant improvement and says her severe hand eczema has resolved.

At 58 years old, Tim Turner couldn't turn the key in his own car. A healthy, active home builder just weeks earlier, Tim was suddenly unable to walk normally, lift his arms, or perform basic daily tasks. Within weeks, he was diagnosed with severe rheumatoid arthritis and told he would likely need lifelong steroids and immunosuppressive medication.In this episode, Danielle Howley and Tiffany Jackson, ND, talk with Tim about his functional medicine evaluation and protocol, including thyroid support, UVB ozone, and LDA therapy. They also discuss root causes, like his decades of chemical exposure in the auto body trade.More than five years later, Tim is symptom-free, medication-free, and back to building homes with a new focus on mold-conscious construction.

Meghan was 16 — an athlete, a high-achiever, a healthy teenager — when her body began doing things no one could explain. Sudden symptoms rapidly escalated into a 32-hour seizure, a ten-day coma, and the temporary loss of her mind and mobility. Over twelve years, Meghan faced more than 110 ICU admissions, relied on a feeding tube and wheelchair, and exhausted the country's top medical institutions before running out of options.Along the way, she was diagnosed with rare conditions including Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) and Stiff Person Syndrome (SPS). In this episode, Meghan shares—in her own words—what those twelve years were really like.Danielle Howley and guest host Tiffany Jackson, ND, sit down with Meghan and her mother Cindy to discuss their long road of advocacy, turning to functional medicine, and Meghan’s step-by-step process of rebuilding her life. This isn't a story of a tidy resolution, but one of endurance and what became possible after a decade of searching. Meghan's experience is described by her care team as one of extreme severity — it is not a representation of typical results, and it is not medical advice.- - - - -Meghan spent more than a decade navigating severe neurological and immune illness, including diagnoses of Stiff Person Syndrome and Complex Regional Pain Syndrome, more than 110 ICU admissions, and a long period of profound debilitation that began suddenly when she was sixteen. Today, she shares her story in her own words, reporting she is mobile, cognitively clear, and rebuilding her life. Her experience is described by her care team as one of extreme severity and is not representative of typical outcomes.Cindy is Meghan's mother and was her primary medical advocate throughout her illness—including when Meghan was a minor and Cindy made all medical decisions on her behalf. Her story reflects the emotional and logistical reality of navigating complex chronic illness as a parent: the hospitalizations, diagnoses, and the persistence needed to keep searching when conventional pathways fall short.Disclosure: Meghan and Cindy are former patient and family of Deeper Healing Medical Wellness Center and are sharing their personal experience.

What if the brain fog, fatigue, anxiety, and overwhelm many people are experiencing today aren't random — but signals that the body is carrying more than it was meant to hold?In this episode of The Deeper Healing Podcast, Danielle Howley sits down with environmental health expert Nick Pineault — known as The EMF Guy — for a conversation that is substantive and quietly hopeful.Nick has spent more than a decade investigating how modern environmental exposures — EMFs, heavy metals, mold, plastics, PFAS, contaminated water and more — accumulate in the human body. He calls this accumulation the body burden, and his work explores how it may be quietly influencing symptoms millions now consider "normal."In this conversation, Nick also shares something deeply personal: his own discovery, after years of living what he believed was an optimized health-conscious lifestyle, that his body was carrying significant toxic load. That moment, he says, changed everything about how I understand health.This is not a conversation built on fear or overwhelm. It is a conversation built on the idea that the body is always working for us — always trying to find balance, always trying to release what no longer serves it. Sometimes the first step is simply understanding what it's been asked to carry.- - - - - About the Host:Danielle Howley is co-founder of Deeper Healing Medical Wellness Center and host of The Deeper Healing Podcast.

Stark Shapleigh was the guy everyone counted on. A logistics consultant moving aircraft, ships, and freight across the globe — sharp, decisive, dependable. Until he wasn't.The brain fog crept in slowly. Then the anxiety. Then the dawning fear that he was losing himself. He tried supplements. Specialists. Quick fixes. Nothing held.In this episode, Stark sits down with Danielle Howley to talk about what it's like to lose your mind a little at a time — and what it took to get it back.

Chip Lake isn’t a complicated case. He’s a regular guy — business owner, farmer — who loves good food, works hard, and just wanted to feel like himself.For years, he didn’t.Every meal became something to dread: choking, constant discomfort, and digestive pain that stole simple pleasures. On top of that came exhaustion he couldn’t shake, brain fog that dogged him, and a body that felt like it was breaking down. He kept pushing through, hoping it would get better.It didn’t.When conventional medicine finally weighed in, the answer was “probably just high blood pressure.” No real investigation. No answers. No relief.In this episode of The Deeper Healing Podcast, host Danielle Howley and guest host Tiffany Jackson talk with Chip about what happened when he stopped waiting and came to Deeper Healing. Advanced testing uncovered what others missed: heavy metal toxicity, inflammation, and digestive dysfunction. With a personalized root-cause protocol — detoxification, gut repair, and targeted therapies — his transformation came quickly. Within weeks, he was eating with joy again.This is a story about what happens when someone finally gets real answers — and a reminder that you don’t have to keep suffering while you wait to be taken seriously.Take the next step:🌿 Ready to stop waiting?

Why do arteries age — and can that process actually be reversed?In this episode, Danielle Howley sits down with Dr. Michael Bauerschmidt, MD, CCT to examine the science behind Drea's story—a patient whose advanced imaging revealed unexpected arterial aging, and how she restored her results through targeted, root-cause care.Dr. B explains how carotid ultrasound measures arterial wall thickness to evaluate cardiovascular risk. He challenges the conventional cholesterol-centric view of heart disease, explaining that inflammation and oxidation are the real drivers of dangerous plaque. When cholesterol oxidizes, it turns sticky, blocking arteries—a process accelerated by heavy metals like mercury and lead.The conversation covers two central therapies for vascular health: phosphatidylcholine IV (Plaquex) to support cell membrane integrity and address plaque buildup, and chelation therapy to target and remove heavy metals that trigger plaque formation.Drea's case illustrates what becomes possible when arterial health is treated proactively — not just reactively.

Most people with mold illness don't know they have it. They've been told their labs are normal. They've tried medication, changed their diet, seen specialist after specialist — and still feel terrible. What they haven't been told is that something in their environment may be driving all of it.In this episode of The Deeper Healing Podcast, guest co-host Tiffany Jackson, ND sits down with Dr. Michael Bauerschmidt and co-founder Danielle Howley to uncover the often-overlooked impact of mold illness on chronic health. Dr. B shares his journey from conventional to environmental medicine — one that began with a health crisis and mold exposure he couldn't get answers for anywhere else.Together, they break down how mold affects people differently based on genetics and detox capacity, why symptoms can range from mild to severely neurological, and what a real recovery strategy actually looks like — not just avoiding mold, but systematically reducing total body burden and supporting the body's own healing pathways.If you've been searching for answers, this episode may be the one that changes everything.

Welcome to The Deeper Healing Podcast, hosted by Danielle Howley. This show is on a mission to provide hope to anyone who has been told that they simply have to live with a chronic illness. We challenge the conventional idea that your body is "broken," proposing instead that it may simply be "burdened".In this series, you will hear:Incredible Patient Recovery Stories: Listen to firsthand accounts from individuals who defied their medical diagnoses and found a path to recovery.Expert Medical Insights: Trusted medical experts share the science of what happens when you unburden the body from heavy metals, chemicals, and chronic infections.Exposing Hidden Sickness: We explore how normalized daily habits and common expenditures may be quietly making us sick or worsening our health.Our core belief is simple: when you give the body the right opportunity, it heals. Join us as we aim to change the world for the better, one person and one decision at a time.
