In this powerful episode of The Root of the Matter, Dr. Rachaele Carver sits down with two of her favorite practitioners and her very first repeat guests, Makenzie Evangelisto, functional nutritionist and founder of Harvest Wellness & Nutrition, and Katie Kitzing certified Emotion Code and Body Code practitioner from Honey Holistic Health.

Together, they dive deep into the connection between drainage, detoxification, and emotional health, revealing why true detox is about much more than supplements and green juices.

You’ll learn:

• The difference between detoxification and drainage and why both are essential for lasting wellness.
• How emotions get stored in the body and block physical healing.
• The surprising ways your nervous system health determines how well you detox.
• Why over-detoxing can backfire and how to listen when your body says “enough.”
• Real-life tools and gentle modalities such as muscle testing, castor oil packs, ionic foot baths, and body code work that support safe and effective cleansing.
• How mindset, prayer, and emotional processing can open the body’s natural pathways and help you feel grounded, lighter, and more resilient.

This conversation blends science, spirituality, and real experience to remind us that healing happens when we slow down, honor our emotions, and let the body flow.

In this powerful continuation of our detox series, Dr. Rachaele Carver sits down with Spencer Feldman, founder and formulator of remedylink, a company known for its handcrafted, solvent-free detox products. Spencer has spent the last 30 years studying medical literature, filling in the gaps left by conventional medicine, and developing innovative protocols to help people detox safely and effectively.

From heavy metals and mold to biofilms and microbiome health, this conversation shines a light on the hidden toxins affecting us every day, and the smarter ways to support our body’s natural cleansing systems.

🔹 What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• Spencer’s unconventional journey from mathematics to alternative medicine and product formulation
• Why quick cleanses and fad detoxes rarely address the real issues
• The “big four” toxic challenges: microbiome imbalances, toxic metals, mold, and sleep apnea
• Why gut acidity and stool pH may reveal more about your health than expensive tests
• The truth about chelation, how to avoid redistributing heavy metals in the body
• How histamine, inflammation, and even your dreams can signal sleep apnea
• The role of biofilms in chronic infections, and why balance is better than elimination
• The often-overlooked relationship between oral health, gut health, and systemic detox

Spencer also shares why not all “super supplements” are helpful during detox, how grounding and voltage play a role in cellular health, and why sometimes the key to healing is doing things in the right order.

If you’ve ever wondered where to start with detox, or why past detoxes may not have worked, this episode will give you a practical roadmap, grounded in both science and experience

Forget everything you thought you knew about detox. In this eye-opening solo episode of The Root of the Matter, Dr. Rachaele Carver cuts through the hype and misconceptions to reveal what truly supports your body’s natural cleansing systems.

Quoting Harvard physician Dr. Peter Cohen, “A true detox isn’t a starvation or restriction diet, it’s biochemistry.” With over 80,000 chemicals in today’s environment, Dr. Carver explains why quick fixes and fad cleanses fall short, and why a science-based approach to detoxification is more important than ever.

You’ll discover how your liver, kidneys, skin, intestines, and lungs each play unique roles in elimination, and why they need targeted nutritional and lifestyle support. Dr. Carver also explores the surprising links between gut bacteria, amino acids, and detox capacity, while uncovering the overlooked role of the nervous system. Could stress management be the missing piece in your detox journey?

This episode kicks off a powerful mini-series featuring leading experts on topics like functional nutrition and home toxin reduction. Whether you’re facing stubborn health issues or simply want to strengthen your body’s resilience, you’ll come away with the science, clarity, and strategies you need for true, sustainable detoxification—far beyond juice cleanses and quick fixes.
