Can Acupuncture Help Your Eyes?
Eye health isn’t isolated from the rest of the body. Vision problems may be linked to broader systemic imbalances, which is why approaches like traditional Chinese medicine focus on identifying and treating root causes—not just symptoms. Acupuncture can be used as a supportive (not replacement) therapy. It may complement conventional treatments for conditions like macular degeneration, glaucoma, cataracts, and dry eye when used as part of a broader care plan. The best outcomes often come from an integrative approach. Combining conventional eye care, nutrition, lifestyle changes, and alternative therapies allows patients to build a personalized “team” for better long-term vision health.
Helping Families Reduce Childhood Eczema Triggers
Discover why pediatric eczema care may need to consider the skin microbiome, gut health, nutrition, stress, and environmental exposures—not only lotions and topical treatments. Understand how skin pH and Staphylococcus aureus colonization may influence eczema, and why Dr. Temple discusses microbiome balance and hypochlorous acid in skin care. Learn how reducing added sugar and processed foods while introducing simple “plant points” may help families build dietary diversity without overwhelming picky eaters.
The Better Question: What’s the Secret Saboteur to Longevity and Wellness?
Encapsulated Toxins May Be Hidden From Standard Testing. Dr. Erika Schultz explains her framework for how repeated exposure to toxic metals may lead the body to surround deposits with fibrous or fatty tissue. Once encapsulated, these metals may no longer appear in standard blood testing while potentially continuing to affect surrounding tissue. The Vagus Nerve May Be a Critical Link Between Toxic Burden and Chronic Symptoms. The episode explores the vagus nerve's role in communication between the brain and organs, as well as its connection to the body's inflammatory response. Dr. Schultz discusses how potential damage to the nervous system may contribute to symptoms involving energy, cognition, digestion, hormones, immune function, sleep, and more. Deep Detoxification Requires Sequence, Not Speed. Dr. Schultz explains The Resiliency Method® as a three-phase approach: first supporting drainage and elimination, then creating the biological conditions for cellular detoxification, and finally addressing deeper encapsulated toxins. She emphasizes that the process is individualized and designed to allow the body to lead rather than aggressively forcing toxin release.
Welcome to the Women’s Health Show with your host Dr. LaKeischa
I'm Dr. LaKeischa, integrative GYN, speaker and best selling author. I help ambitious women who are struggling with depleting hormones, get their hormones balanced, regain mental sharpness and have energy to last the entire day.
WHI Study Day 1 Dr LaKeischa
WHI Study Day 2 Dr LaKeischa
Here is Day 2 of our story. Again I am not claiming that in the next 5 days I can breakdown a study that 40 clinics participated in and had over 100k women participate. What I do want to do is help you understand it a little more than you did yesterday. And help us start some conversations. ➡️let’s recap. Day 1 and Day 2 are showing you how they divided the women that were participating. If you had a uterus you got both E+P (estrogen and progesterone). If you didn’t have a uterus you were given E (estrogen) only. ➡️ There were also women who were given placebo. This study was designed as a RCT (randomized control trial). The participants were randomized into the different study groups based on predetermined criteria. ➡️ Stay tuned for Day 3! The story is going to get good!

The Social Construct of Menopause the 1700 s Part 1 Dr. LaKeischa
➡️ In the 1700’s one of the prevailing thoughts around women’s health was that since women’s periods stopped “all of a sudden” they must be a weaker spiritual vessel. ➡️ You see as far as science and society knew there were no equivalent physiological disruptions in a man’s body. So this must be a spiritual or mental flaw or weakness. ➡️ Now due to the chemical and physiological changes that women were experiencing they were not acting like themselves anymore. And women were labeled to be in a state of “hysteria”. And because this was a flaw in mind and character there was no medical investigation to be done.
