Episode 330: Ways to Support Your Immune System
Let's talk about immune support as we head into "cold and flu season"! Here at Team FN, we believe it’s not about eliminating exposure to all viruses or illnesses, but rather about controlling our habits, the foods we consume, and our daily routines to keep our immune system firing on all cylinders. Learn about the nutritional and lifestyle foundations for building a strong immune system, as well as the supplements and nutraceuticals that can offer additional support.
Feel like you’re doing all the basics and are still catching every cold that goes around? It may be time to take a deeper dive. We’re accepting clients in our 1:1 membership and would love to see your application!
Episode 273: Re-Imagining the Back to School Busy
Back to school and the transition to fall has become synonymous with busyness. In this episode, Erin addresses the “chaos energy” that can accompany times of change. She explains how food plays an impactful role on your mental state, and why it’s important to evaluate food choices for both yourself and your family. Throughout this episode you’ll hear thought-provoking questions designed to help you assess the impact of busyness on you and those around you — and alternatives for a more positive effect. This is not your typical “back to school” conversation!

Episode 175: Our Food, Our Immune System & Our Kids (A Town Hall on Health)
Today Erin takes a more of a town hall approach to discuss our modern food system and how this plays a role in not only our immune and overall health, but also our kids' health. This episode packs plenty of food for thought: stats and information surrounding our rapidly changing food system, chronic illness, autoimmune disease, access to food, and key factors for a solid health foundation.
Episode 153: Demystifying Home Cooking with Rachel Mistry, MS, RDN
One of the tenets of the Funk’tional Nutritionist is you can’t skip the basics. Eating a variety of whole foods is a huge piece of this, and home cooking is one of the best ways to achieve a whole foods diet. However, a lot of folks feel overwhelmed when it comes to the kitchen, and many don’t know where to start. Today Erin sits down with Rachel Mistry, MS, RDN, to unpack the barriers to entry when it comes to navigating the kitchen. They give practical advice for one pot dishes, pantry staples, maximizing time, overcoming uncertainty, and enlisting help. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned pro, you’ll want to tune in to get some great ideas!
Episode 119: Building a Healthy Child with Dr. Melina Roberts
If you have kids, you probably know just how hard it is to keep them and their surroundings clean. Attempts to completely sterilize our outer environment is an inherently futile goal; microbes and pathogens have always been present and will always be present. As parents we worry about kids catching viruses or other pathogens, and in COVID times, this worry has ramped up cleaning efforts to a critical level. We’ve seen that even with our best efforts and precautions, we can’t completely avoid pathogens or viruses. So, what do we do?
In this episode I chat with Naturopath Dr. Melina Roberts about what it takes to build a robust immune system for our kids. It’s an important and relevant conversation that can also be applied to humans of all ages. We discuss how efforts in our outer environment can benefit (or hinder) us, and how getting to the root of robust health actually requires focus on our inner environment.
Episode 116: The Problem with Food Dyes (& Why You Shouldn't Buy Kellogg's New Waffles)
Why my feathers are all sorts of ruffled over Kellogg’s new unicorn & mermaid frozen waffles...and the BIG problem with food dyes. This episode is for the busy parent who is looking to glean some information to make more informed decisions about their food purchases. It’s also a short episode that you can share with people that you care about.
