In this episode of "Pushing the Limits" we enter the fascinating world of Kaytee Boyd who is an integrative clinical nutritionist but really the title doesn't really explain the depth of knowledge and expertise and clinical insights this wonderful lady has to share. We do a deep dive into cancer and the role of the gut, nutrition for cancer, the foundational health principles to support you on your cancer journey but we also go in personalized medicine and nutrition and why there is no "one size fits all" when it comes to diet and lifestyle interventions. We discuss advanced testing techniques and how you can use them to better your health and much much more. Kaytee has extensive clinical experiences dealing with everything from:
Cancer (all types, all stages)
High fat diet/ weight and fat loss
Chronic fatigue
Gut issues: IBS, IBD, FODMAPS, SIFO, LIBO, bacterial overgrowth, candida
Auto-immune (Hashimotos,thyroid, Graves, Goiter skin, Rheumatoid arthritis)
Cardiovascular conditions
Genetics testing
Neurological (Alzheimer, MS, Autism, ADD, ADHD, spectrum, depression, anxiety, mental health, insomnia)
Hormones (estrogen dominance, endometriosis PCOS)
Muscular skeletal (fibromyalgia, polymyalgia)
So this is one episode you won't want to miss and we promise to make a part two. You can find Kaytee and her team at https://www.theboydclinic.co.nz/ on instagram: at @the.boyd.clinic

I am getting my mojo back with regards to my health and running after treatment for breast cancer, I connected with Lisa as I was looking for positive influences from people who are long distance runners and understand our mindset. Lisa’s podcasts have been a key factor in getting me out of a negative space where I allowed others limiting beliefs to stop me from following my heart and what I believe is right for me. After 18 months of being in cancer recovery mode I wanted to get out of the cancer mindset and back to achieving goals that had been put aside. Listening to Pushing The Limits has put me onto other great podcasts, and in the process I have learnt so much and am on a pathway to a much better place with my mindset and health. Thanks so much Lisa for doing what you do and always being you.
