    Episode 35: How To Treat Diabetes and IBD without drugs? with Dr. Lara May

    Episode 35: How To Treat Diabetes and IBD without drugs? with Dr. Lara May

    Prepare to be enlightened as we journey with Dr. Lara May through the transformative world of functional medicine. Dr. May expertly unveils how addressing the root causes of illness and understanding the body's interconnected systems can lead to lasting wellness instead of merely treating symptoms. 

    Navigating the complexities of clinical studies, this conversation is an eye-opener about the challenges in evidencing the effectiveness of less conventional treatments, which often escape the grasp of randomized, placebo-controlled trials. Dr. May and I dissect the reasons behind these limitations, particularly the financial disincentives associated with studying non-patentable treatments like lifestyle changes. We also confront the need for a more nuanced approach to patient care that considers the individuality of each person's health journey and the intrinsic value in therapies that mainstream research may overlook.

    This episode calls on you to take the reins of your health by integrating mindfulness, movement, and sleep into your daily routine. It isn't just good advice; it's a pathway to transforming your life. Together, we lay out a blueprint for a health narrative that's hopeful and actionable, urging you to embark on a 90-day challenge that could radically shift your path to vitality. For anyone ready to author their own health story, this episode is your invitation to a community that champions proactive living and self-empowerment.

    Episode 32: Reducing Dementia Risk - The Role of Diet, Sleep and Social Interaction with Dr. Tommy Wood

    What do Bruce Willis, Ronald Reagan, Sugar Ray Robinson, Tony Bennet, and Gabriel García Márquez have in common? 

    Besides being well-known worldwide for their talent in their respective fields, such as leaders, writing, music, sports, and acting, they also suffered from a common disease that regular people from all walks of life can be affected by: Alzheimer's and dementia.


    According to the American Alzheimer's Association, more than 6 million Americans of all ages have Alzheimer's. An estimated 6.7 million Americans age 65 and older will be living with Alzheimer's in 2023. Seventy-three percent are age 75 or older. About 1 in 9 people age 65 and older (10.7%) has Alzheimer's.

    Dr. Wood, with his wealth of knowledge, helps us understand the importance of nutrition, physical activity, and sleep while emphasizing the significance of community and stress management.


    During our conversation, we also touched upon the vital role of mental stimulation through hobbies and learning activities in protecting our brains from cognitive decline. We explore the possible benefits of creatine, choline, and omega-3s in concussion prevention and recovery. 


    Tune in as we unravel the profound influence of lifestyle decisions on our brain health and risk of dementia.

    Episode 31: Beyond Religion the Spiritual Path with Amrit Singh Reinsch

    What if you could unlock your inner spiritual growth and reshape your relationships through thoughtful conversations? Our latest episode brings you a fascinating discussion with Amrit Singh, a yoga and meditation veteran who shares his journey of spiritual exploration beyond the confines of the religious community.

    We dig into the notion of a potential spiritual crisis gripping modern society and how breaking away from a single religious group can open the door to engaging dialogue with people of diverse beliefs.

    Our conversation takes an interesting turn as we delve into the role of breathwork in meditation and how nature can enhance our understanding of our spiritual selves.

    Amrit also brings his unique perspective on assisting men in transforming their relationships, encouraging them to take responsibility and bridge gaps.
