Dr. Shalane Carter interviews naturopath Dr. Keri Franci from Grand Island, Nebraska, about practicing natural medicine in a region less familiar with it and how her own childhood illnesses led her into homeopathy, herbs, nutrition, and muscle testing through a chiropractor and her mother-in-law’s business, Alternative Answers.
They discuss empowering parents to use gentle but powerful tools like muscle testing, and how detox and “drainage pathways” (gut, liver, kidneys, lymph, skin, lungs) underpin many chronic issues, which Keri says she has seen more post-COVID.
Keri shares her experience with Lyme, and how addressing parasites, mold, and heavy metals can be part of recovery. They emphasize that healing is individualized, tied to nervous system regulation, trauma, beliefs, and environment, and that functional medicine is a partnership requiring personal work.
Keri also mentions practices for aging well, including protein intake, detoxes, and copper peptides, and encourages listeners not to give up.
