In this episode of Keeping Abreast, I sit down with Lynn Oberstein Feder, a passionate mother, baker, and wellness advocate whose lifelong health journey led her to profound transformation—both personally and professionally.Lynn shares her early struggles with chronic illness and the cascade of misdiagnoses and overuse of antibiotics that left her searching for answers. We talk about the toll of conventional medicine, the power of homeopathic remedies, and the critical importance of finding a provider who truly listens.Her journey to healing began with food—specifically, the gut-healing power of bone broth and a complete shift in her dietary habits. Through her experience, Lynn discovered not just better health, but a calling. Motivated by her daughter’s dietary restrictions, she began developing nutrient-dense, gluten-free breads that eventually blossomed into her business, Lynn's Life Breads.We explore how food quality impacts the microbiome, why ingredient transparency matters, and how healing can happen when you return to your kitchen with purpose and intention. Lynn also opens up about the energetic component of food preparation, and how family-centered cooking can transform health outcomes—especially for children.This episode is about more than bread—it's about reclaiming your health, trusting your intuition, and turning adversity into empowerment.Key Takeaways:Chronic illness often begins with overlooked or misdiagnosed symptomsOveruse of antibiotics can have long-term health effectsHomeopathy and integrative medicine can offer powerful alternativesHealing often starts in the kitchenThe microbiome is foundational to overall wellnessUnderstanding food quality is essential for lasting healthFamily-friendly, accessible recipes can bring everyone to the tablePassion projects can become healing businessesListening to your body is the first step toward true healthBe sure to Rate and Subscribe so we can continue bring you these life-changing conversations!00:00 Introduction to Lifelong Health Struggles02:53 Lynn's Early Health Challenges06:10 The Role of Antibiotics in Health08:51 Homeopathic Remedies and Cultural Differences12:00 Sister's Battle with Breast Cancer15:06 A Lifetime of Misdiagnoses17:55 Finding the Right Healthcare Provider21:03 Turning Point: Dietary Changes23:59 The Impact of Bone Broth Diet28:10 The Journey to Healthier Bread Alternatives31:04 Creating Bread for Dietary Needs35:00 The Science Behind Bread and Health39:52 From Kitchen to Business: The Birth of Lynn's Life Breads45:57 Making Bread Accessible for EveryoneTo talk to a member of Dr. Jenn's team and learn more about working privately with RHMD, visit: https://jennsimmons.simplero.com/page/377266?kuid=327aca17-5135-44cf-9210-c0b77a56e26d&kref=vOKy0sAiorrKTo get your copy of Dr. Jenn's book, The Smart Woman's Guide to Breast Cancer, visit: https://tinyurl.com/SmartWomansBreastCancerGuideTo purchase the auria breast cancer screening test go here https://auria.care/ and use the code DRJENN20 for 20% Off.Connect with Dr. Jenn:Website: https://www.realhealthmd.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DrJennSimmonsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/drjennsimmons/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@dr.jennsimmons
