Episode 171: Reed Davis

Reed Davis, Board Certified Holistic Health Practitioner (HHP) and Certified Nutritional Therapist (CNT), is an expert in functional lab testing and holistic lifestyle medicine. Over 20 years ago, Reed Davis recognized people were caught in a “cycle of trial and error” and he committed to being the last person they needed to see. While working with top leaders in alternative medicine, he ran thousands of labs on thousands of people and learned to identify “healing opportunities.” Using all-natural, drug-free protocols, Reed made observations about who got better and who didn’t, codifying which “general principles of health building” would outperform “specific treatments” being provided by standard and even alternative medicine. And through this work, he then developed the Functional Diagnostic Nutrition® Certification Course and D.R.E.S.S. for Health Success Protocol® to educate and empower as many people as possible about how to get well and stay well naturally, so they, in turn, may empower others to do the same.

In this episode, Brian and Reed talk about the progression of Reed’s career into nutrition, the D.R.E.S.S. for Health Success Protocol, using natural healing protocols versus using drugs, taking a preventative approach to health care versus a disease-management approach, how to stay stress free even if you have many responsibility in your life, the various kinds of stress that may be effecting a person, why the idea of looking for a universal root cause for a particular disorder may be somewhat misguided, self-medicating with food or other substances throughout the day, treating the whole person versus treating only the surface-level disorder, and why instances of autoimmune diseases have been increasing recently.
