He is the author of Life and Death: Our Relationship with Ageing, Dementia, and Other Fates of Time.

Dr. Belfour shares his research on fostering emotional connections for couples in which one partner has dementia, and how small, everyday moments can create meaning even in the most challenging circumstances.Dr. Balfour also reflects on society's neglect of aging and mortality as crucial topics, attributing this to our collective fear of vulnerability and a cultural obsession with youth. This discussion doesn't shy away from the realities of aging, such as dependency, increased vulnerability, and existential regrets, but it also offers hope. Dr. Balfour shares valuable insights on navigating the challenges of aging, loneliness, and regret, providing practical ways to foster resilience and connection.  I hope this conversation resonates with you and offers a meaningful opportunity to consider these important themes.About Dr. Andrew Balfour:Andrew Balfour trained as a clinical psychologist at University College London and then as an adult psychotherapist at the Tavistock & Portman NHS Trust.

In this captivating online presentation from the IMMH 2023 conference, board-certified psychiatrist Dr. Achina Stein reveals how the intersection of functional medicine, gut restoration, and psychiatry can lead to lasting healing for depression, anxiety, and other mental health challenges. She explains why the journey takes dedication and time, why psychiatry provides an ideal setting, and why it's worth the effort. She also delves into very concrete clinical advice on the basics of how to implement functional medicine psychiatry.    Dr. Achina Stein is a board-certified psychiatrist with over 25 years of clinical experience and serves as the Clinical Director of the Healing Depression Project. Also a certified practitioner with the Institute for Functional Medicine (IFMCP) and a distinguished fellow of the American Psychiatric Association, Dr. Stein was awarded the Exemplary Psychiatrist Award by the National Alliance on Mental Illness. Author of the best-seller What If It's Not Depression, she explains how diet and lifestyle changes - including gut restoration and the 5R protocol - can significantly improve depression, anxiety, and mental health. In this comprehensive presentation, Dr. Stein reveals why standard psychiatric care often falls short by relying on a “silver bullet” approach, the limitations of medications, and why functional medicine offers a revolutionary path forward in psychiatry and mental health treatment.   In this episode, discover: Who benefits most from functional medicine and why it's ideal for patients open to diet and lifestyle changes. Why functional medicine analyses food diaries, bowel movements, sleep patterns, exercise, toxin and mould exposure and physical exam/gait analysis in evaluations alongside more conventional  psychiatric care. Why a diagnosis isn't always needed for treatment, and why changes to diet and lifestyle can treat conditions before they fully manifest. The link between complex chronic illness and mental health symptoms. The intrinsic connection between depression and inflammation. Other often overlooked root causes of depression and anxiety, including certain medications (e.g., Chantix, Accutane), low cholesterol, low Omega-3, low Vitamin D, thyroid issues, lupus and other autoimmune conditions, and hypoglycemia. Why antidepressants may not always improve symptoms and the potential downsides of their use. The importance of addressing infections, toxins, oxidative stress, hormone imbalances, digestive issues, blood sugar levels, and circadian rhythm in treatment. The 5R protocol (Remove, Replace, Reinoculate, Repair, Rebalance) and its role in restoring gut health for better mental health. Insights from the Dr. Hyman Questionnaire on how chronic toxicity impacts mental health. Why the gut-brain axis is a crucial missing link in treating depression, the mental health risks of gut permeability (leaky gut), and the critical role of diet in maintaining gut and brain health. Ways to strengthen the gut-brain connection and increase BDNF levels through HIIT, fasting, and cold exposure for mental health benefits. The crucial role of exercise in detoxification. Top dietary recommendations for improving depression, anxiety and mental health, including foods to add (vegetables, eggs, beef, fish, quinoa, nuts, seeds, fermented foods) and foods to avoid (caffeine, sugar, dairy, gluten).

In this episode of What Happens in Vagus, host Dr. Stephanie Canestraro sits down with Cathy Eason, Clinical Director at Berkeley Life, to explore the often-overlooked yet vital molecule: nitric oxide. Cathy shares her fascinating journey from massage therapy to nutritional therapy, a path sparked by a personal mission to address chronic inflammation and promote deeper healing. Together, they unpack the critical role nitric oxide plays in cardiovascular health, blood pressure regulation, and athletic performance—and how we can naturally boost its production through dietary nitrates found in foods like beets and spinach.Dr. Steph and Cathy dive deep into the science behind nitric oxide, explaining how the body produces it through both enzyme-driven pathways and nitrate-rich foods. They highlight the importance of the oral microbiome in this process, discussing how proper oral health—including something as simple as chewing gum—can help convert dietary nitrates into usable nitric oxide. Cathy shares real-life success stories of patients who have seen remarkable improvements in energy, circulation, and blood pressure thanks to nitric oxide supplementation.The conversation also touches on broader themes in functional medicine, such as the impact of EMF exposure, the role of oxalates and soil quality in nutrition, and how a balanced, whole-foods-based diet can support overall wellness. Cathy and Dr. Steph emphasize that effective health optimization requires more than just supplements—it involves understanding nutrient interactions, maintaining gut and oral health, and tuning into the psychological and emotional aspects of healing. Whether you're an athlete looking to enhance performance or someone navigating chronic health challenges, this episode offers empowering insights into how nitric oxide and nutrition can support your journey to better health.More on Cathy: Cathy Eason, MS is a Board Certified Holistic Nutritionist and Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner with 20+ years of clinical experience in functional medicine-based nutrition practice.

In this information-packed episode of The Red Light Report, Dr. Mike Belkowski is joined by Josh Crawford, Clinical Director of Genoa Integrative Health & Wellness. Josh shares his transformational journey from emergency medicine to building one of the most robust red light therapy clinics in North America. Sparked by the tragic loss of his first wife to Crohn's disease and biologic-related cancer, Josh recounts how that experience ignited his pursuit of root-cause medicine, integrative therapies, and photobiomodulation.   The episode dives deep into the clinical application of red light therapy and methylene blue — especially in combination — as tools for mitochondrial repair, anti-aging, and chronic disease recovery. Josh and Dr. Mike explore the synergistic effects of methylene blue and red light, optimal dosing strategies, and the importance of high-quality supplementation. They also address the challenges of consumer devices, the biohacker movement, and using light and energy to promote cellular regeneration.   Topics include: •  Josh's journey from paramedic to bioenergetic health leader •  Why methylene blue + red light = mitochondrial magic •  Dosing strategies, contraindications, and clinical applications •  How to vet red light therapy devices and avoid snake oil •  Real-world stories of healing from autoimmune, cancer, and neurodegeneration   Whether you're a clinician, wellness entrepreneur, or biohacker, this episode is full of clinical pearls, personal insights, and practical protocols that highlight the future of medicine rooted in energy, light, and mitochondrial health.   Josh Crawford is the Clinical Director of Genoa Integrative Health & Wellness, a leading clinic focused on root-cause healing, mitochondrial repair, and advanced integrative therapies. With a background in emergency medicine and paramedicine, Josh transitioned into the world of holistic health after the tragic loss of his first wife to complications from Crohn's disease and biologic treatment. This personal turning point fueled his mission to challenge conventional sick-care models and pursue modalities that restore cellular health—especially photobiomodulation (red light therapy) and methylene blue.
