  2. Episode 518: Quantum Nutrition with guest Ethan Okunas

    Episode 497

    Show notes

    What is quantum? What do photons have to do with your energy production? How does the lighting you are using impact your mitochondria? Is grounding real and does it have a measurable impact on the human body?

    In this guest episode of The Naturally Nourished Podcast, Ali Miller RD interviews guest Ethan Okunas, registered dietitian and author of Quantum Nutrition and Quantum Weight Loss. Things get nerdy quick as he shares how ATP is made, the role of electrons, and what fourth phase water is. Learn why deuterium levels may matter in your foods and how the ketogenic diet naturally runs low deuterium. We discuss the balance of biohacking with seeking the natural source and lifestyle approaches to offset modern industrialized imbalances including red light, grounding sheets, and structured water. Ali notes on how antioxidants can influence our electrical charge by maintaining redox balance and supporting negative charge that can even be measured on CGM. Ethan takes the position that sunlight, darkness, water, and exercise all are priorities over what you are eating and most importantly with diet it is where and when you are eating that matters.

    Join Ali Miller RD for this interview episode with guest Hilda Labrada Gore, Holistic Hilda. Learn about Hilda’s travels around the world and what she’s picked up from ancestral health traditions. She shares about the LOST diet of local, organic, seasonal, traditional foods and the work of Weston A. Price as a source of inspiration. This passion eventually led into a career of hosting the Weston A. Price podcast for 10 years providing more opportunity for learning and world travel. We discuss what has recently inspired her in her trips to various tribes and what she’s applying back home. Hilda shares her six ancestral secrets for health and vitality: Sunshine, Shivers, Sleep, Sustenance, Strength, and Spirit. This inspiring positive conversation goes into the importance of nervous system regulation and how to seek God as the source in your wellness as well as how often we have to go backward to heal.

  20. Episode 501: The story of Naturally Nourished + Ali Miller RD Part 2

    Episode 480

    Show notes

    When Ali shut down her Houston clinic and went virtual she was warned she was walking away from a legacy, but instead of slowing down, things kept growing. In this episode Ali talks about food-as-medicine chef collabs, her contract with MD Anderson for a stage 3 breast cancer research study, and moving to Austin in 2017. It was at this time that Ali signed the book deal for The Anti-Anxiety Diet and things really started to take off. Ali shares the importance of listening to your gut and doing an internal inventory as an entrepreneur of where you shine and where you are dampened or burned out.

    Brady and Ali talk about the growth of the Naturally Nourished Supplement line and spill an inside scoop on new exciting things coming in 2026. They share the growth from shipping out of their first home in Austin to shipping thousands of orders per month, the expansion of product offerings and volume of sales to national growth and becoming the primary arm of the business. Ali shares the stresses that came with the pandemic and censorship and how often God throws storms at you to liberate or realign. She shares about this upcoming Fall cohort of The Naturally Nourished Mentorship and how she is building out a membership platform, Beyond Keto for fall metabolic support. Part 2 includes from 2015 to 2026 plus what can be expected from Ali and Naturally Nourished in the future.
