Episode 160: Epigenetic Preconception, Holistic Fertility and Salutogenic Family Health Care

In this episode of the ACA Podcast, host Dr Kim Lie Jom is joined by Dr Marcia Schaefer, a recent speaker at the Kids Summit, to explore a holistic approach to health, fertility and family wellbeing.

Marcia shares her insights into epigenetic preconception care, holistic nutrition and the principles of salutogenesis – a health model focused on the factors that support and promote health and wellbeing, rather than simply addressing disease.

Together, they explore what health truly means, where it begins, and how a salutogenic approach can be applied in clinical practice. Marcia also reflects on her personal experience with cancer and her holistic approach to treatment and recovery.

This episode offers a thought-provoking perspective on supporting lifelong health and wellbeing, from preconception through to family life.
