Transcript
- 0:00I believe when you truly know the root causes of your symptoms, disease, illness, you heal your body and break free from the conventional medicine rollercoaster, which is only providing a pill and a bandage solution, keeping you stuck and sick.
- 0:14And to me, that is unacceptable.
- 0:17Welcome to Find the Root Cause podcast.
- 0:20I'm Dr.
- 0:20Jennifer Jente.
- 0:21My patients call me Dr.
- 0:23J.
- 0:23Functional medicine and root cause doctor and on this podcast each week I will be diving deeper on a health topic with the intention of helping you get a clear understanding of why your symptoms do not have to be a mystery anymore and a plan to help you reduce the need for medications, reduce the frustration, the confusion, the anxiety in order to achieve health and well being.
- 0:48wellness, happiness, to feel your very best and improve the quality of your life.
- 0:53If you are ready to take your health, stamina, and life to the next level and stop struggling, keep listening.
- 1:00I got something amazing to tell you.
- 1:03There are three areas of focus.
- 1:05That you need to pay attention to in order for you to significantly heal your body, eliminating your symptoms, increasing your energy, tackle your hormonal IAL symptoms, get rid of your gas bloat, your acne, your headaches, your migraine, your joint pain are three areas, and those three areas I focus on the most with my patients.
- 1:31So the first one is self awareness.
- 1:33What is self awareness?
- 1:34It's simple.
- 1:35Are you aware that your symptoms are a way of your body communicating with you, telling you something is wrong at the cellular level?
- 1:44Sometimes it's going to take you a few months and sometimes years for you to have self awareness.
- 1:49For example, if I wake up tomorrow morning with a headache, And I have a busy life and have so many things on my to do list.
- 1:55I'm not gonna take time to identify what the headache means.
- 1:59I'm just gonna go to my cabinet, take a Tylenol and just go about my business.
- 2:03That's not self awareness.
- 2:05If I keep getting stomach pain, I keep getting bloated, I keep getting gassy, and I keep, like, things are not working in my body, and I'm not feeling my very best, and the fatigue is prolonging, and the tiredness is prolonging, what do I do?
- 2:17Drink more coffee.
- 2:19Drink, stimulant.
- 2:20It gets some more caffeine in my body, or push through.
- 2:23But there's gonna come a time where your body's gonna scream louder.
- 2:27And that's how we get those diagnosis, Where you can't even function the way you used to, or you are struggling day to day to get things that used to be acute, that used to be easy.
- 2:38You're gonna get those things done with struggle.
- 2:40That is where self awareness come in.
- 2:42You have to be aware that every single discomfort, every single distress, every single, thing that you feel, whether it's a slight headache or a slight backache or just one pimple coming out of your face, you have to be aware that is a sign that you need to stop what you're doing and take time and energy.
- 3:04To identify the root causes which is the second area of focus.
- 3:08Now, I wake up in the morning I'm like, okay, I'm not feeling my best.
- 3:12I have, I'm struggling.
- 3:14I just don't like the way I feel.
- 3:15I desire more for my health, And I don't want to push through.
- 3:18I don't want to depend on something to give me the energy.
- 3:21So that's self awareness.
- 3:23I've seen so many patients in my practice that have been experiencing symptoms for months we keep pushing through, where to the point that the symptoms are increasing, so self awareness is bringing the focus within, it's going within, it's sitting with yourself and evaluating and take notes and inventory of what you are not liking or loving and also creating a plan and write down your desires of what you want.
- 3:51Moving forward, you've got to have self awareness.
- 3:53So the second area is identifying the root cause.
- 3:56We have to be honest, 90 percent of the population, 90 percent of us We'll go to the conventional Western medicine.
- 4:04We're going to go see our doctors and the conventional doctors are not helping you identify the root causes.
- 4:11Conventional medicine is not, that's not the primary focus.
- 4:15Conventional medicine does not focus on helping you identify the root causes, but if you do not know the root causes, how are you going to have a plan to address the issue?
- 4:23If you don't know what the underlying conditions are, you just gonna keep throwing spaghetti at the wall and hoping and wishing and you're gonna find yourself trying a lot of things.
- 4:34seeing multiple doctors, doing so many blood tests, imaging testing, just to hear that you are fine, or You get, prescribed a medication.
- 4:45But identifying the root causes requires two things.
- 4:48You have to do functional testing, meaning that you have to dig deeper and look at the health of your cells.
- 4:55You have to go intracellularly.
- 4:58And this test are not covered by insurance.
- 5:00Because this will be a true picture of your health.
- 5:03Like, literally.
- 5:04What's going on internally because we don't have a magnified glasses to see what's happening the extra external we can see Internal which is where health disease Creation takes place we cannot see the reason why we are struggling, we're not healing, our symptoms are still persisting, we are getting those terrible diagnoses because we don't know the root causes of your symptoms to begin with, You are bloated, you have acid reflux, you are gassy, your hormones are out of whack.
- 5:32Why?
- 5:33We still focus on getting a solution, but if you don't know the root causes, that solution is not going to work.
- 5:40So this year in 2025, you must put 50 percent of your focus on identifying the root causes.
- 5:47When you see the root causes, that's when you're going to have a better picture.
- 5:52You're going to have clarity on what you need to do, what step you need to take, who do you need to work with, what changes you need to make to address the symptoms.
- 6:01So, the second area of focus is identify the root cause.
- 6:04I've said that before in many videos because I am the root cause doctor.
- 6:08This is the first thing that I work with my patients on.
- 6:12They cannot regain the energy, get rid of the headaches.
- 6:16Get rid of the acne, have a flatter stomach, have that vitality, stamina, if I don't know the good causes.
- 6:23I cannot prescribe any herbs, I cannot prescribe a lifestyle, changes or program, if I don't know the good causes.
- 6:30So since my services are not covered by insurance, functional medicine not covered by insurance, I'm not gonna have my patients pay me money.
- 6:38To just do a test run on them to try all the things on them.
- 6:41that's frustrating because this is the people that are coming to us They want answers.
- 6:46They want solutions.
- 6:47They want results because they've been struggling for a long time They have seen many doctors for a long time So in our clinic here in our practice in our online programs, it's all about solution driven.
- 6:58But first I have to know what the root causes are.
- 7:01So, the third area and this is a huge one and I'm going to do a whole video about it is to detox.
- 7:08My friend, if you're not detoxing you are not healing.
- 7:11You cannot start a healing process a healing journey by adding what's already there.
- 7:17If you purchase a home what do you need to do?
- 7:19You're going to clean the home You might have to remove the carpet.
- 7:22You might have to paint, You might have to remove.
- 7:24So when I'm selling a home, me and the new owner is going to come in, I have to remove my furniture out.
- 7:32So that's a symptom with detoxing.
- 7:33If you have a purse that is heavy and you have so many things in that purse and you want that purse to be lighter, what do you need to do?
- 7:40You have to remove things out of the purse.
- 7:42so detoxification must be your second step.
- 7:46Second step after identifying the root causes, you have to detox.
- 7:49Remove old things to create room for new things, to create room for your cells to breathe, to rejuvenate, to work for you, to unclog them.
- 8:00They are suffocated with the toxins.
- 8:05And when you detox, at least in my detox program, you not only lose weight, you lose inflammation, you lose water weight, but you feel that you have that energy, you feel energized.
- 8:15So detoxification doesn't mean that you have to be miserable.
- 8:18In my detox program We eat well food.
- 8:20so your third area of focus is detox.
- 8:23So self awareness That's something you have to do on your own.
- 8:27sit with yourself.
- 8:28Take inventory.
- 8:29How do I feel?
- 8:29What do I desire?
- 8:30Once you have self awareness, it's a clear sign that you're ready to embark on a journey Where you're going to transform your life so the second step you have to find a functional medicine doctor, holistic medicine doctor that's going to help you identify the root causes.
- 8:47Now, I used to be a conventional practitioner and to be honest with you, identifying the root causes wasn't my thing.
- 8:53Although I was prescribing all the testing, all the imaging, but again, I wasn't looking at the cells, the cellular function, where disease takes place, where healing takes place.
- 9:03I used to send my patients to do all this.
- 9:06Fancy imaging, MRI, CAT scans and then endoscopy, colonoscopy to come back normal, unless they have a tumor or cancer.
- 9:13But again, they used to look at me like, what are you talking about?
- 9:16I'm still tired.
- 9:17I'm exhausted.
- 9:18I'm anxious.
- 9:19I'm frustrated.
- 9:20I don't feel well in my body.
- 9:22This cannot be normal.
- 9:23Until now, for the past 11 years, practicing functional medicine, I'm looking at the cells.
- 9:30And I'm looking at markers, I'm looking at antibodies, I'm looking at inflammatory markers, then I can pinpoint what is wrong with my patients.
- 9:39So three areas of focus.
- 9:41Those three areas, when my patients go through them Effectively, with someone that can help them, with a guide, with a partner in health, like a doctor, they see tremendous results.
- 9:53Again, my detox program alone, people can see results in one week, improvement in one week.
- 9:58So if you are interested in learning more about our detox program, it's open for registration.

- 10:30We're going to do it together.
- 10:31I, myself, detox four times a year, but every year I bring a few of my patients and those that are interested, and we do it together so I can manage them, monitor them, so that we go on this journey making sure that they are doing it the right way, so that when you do it again on your own, you know exactly what to do, and you know exactly how to tweak, and you have the proper strategies.
