Sick and Seeking
Sick and Seeking is hosted by Leslie Field who, after a diagnosis in her late teens of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), has been on a 22-year journey of healing and self-discovery.
In this podcast, Leslie invites you to join her for intimate, honest and heartfelt conversations with others who are also on their own healing journeys as they live with and manage the long-term effects of “dis-ease” in the body.
Listen to the stories of courageous people who, in the face of an uncertain medical future, are on a quest to go deeper into their bodies, beyond symptom and diagnosis—or in some cases no diagnosis—to reach a place of intuitive knowing, healing and transformation.
This podcast is, above all, an exploration in healing and examines a variety of modalities and knowledge from conventional medicine to holistic and complementary therapies that bring a spiritual, psychological and mystical perspective to bodily healing in our modern culture.

E1 S2 | Naturopath Debra Lee (she’s back!) Shares the Essential Elements and Nutrients We Need to Function Properly and Create a Healthy Self-Healing and Self-Regulating Environment in Our Bodies
Welcome to Season 2 of the Sick and Seeking Podcast!
For this season’s first episode I decided to bring back Naturopath Debra Lee who I interviewed on Episode 7 of Season 1 where she shared all about the toxins we may be exposed to in our daily lives. She was quite the fan favorite (meaning, tons of downloads!) so I had to have her back on to share more of her naturopathic wisdom.
This time Debra and I spoke about the the Essential Elements and Nutrients We Need to Function Properly and Create a Healthy Self-Healing and Self-Regulating Environment in Our Bodies and those things are: clean water, good salts, minerals, probiotics, and clean produce.
We speak about:
- How 80% of your health is lifestyle - not genetics!
- There are essential elements and nutrients that we need for our body to function properly and for it to create a healthy self-healing and self-regulating environment and that is: clean water, good salts, minerals, probiotics, and clean produce.
- Water: how much to drink, when to drink it, what type we should be drinking and why
- Sodium Fluoride vs Calcium Fluoride: what’s the difference and why it matters
- The importance of minerals in our diet and the fact that our bodies can manufacture some vitamins, but they cannot manufacture minerals so must get them from your diet or supplements.
- There are approximately 102 minerals that our bodies need and one of the ways we can get many of them is through Celtic Sea Salt
- Calcium, Magnesium, Iron, Chloride, Iodine: their function in our bodies, and a description of what it might look or feel like if we have a deficiency:
- Prebiotic, probiotic, and postbiotics and their connection to a healthy gut
- Why you should be buying from your local farmer or farmer’s market, and not just because of the environmental footprint
