Vitamin D in pregnancy is one of those topics that sounds simple, but the details really matter. You use this essential vitamin in nearly every part of your body, and your baby depends entirely on you to supply it. The problem is that most pregnant moms do not get enough. Deficiency is incredibly common, and it is linked to a higher risk of complications like preeclampsia. To make things more confusing, most prenatal vitamins contain far less vitamin D than the evidence suggests you need during pregnancy. In this episode, we break down what vitamin D actually does, why deficiency is so widespread, how much you really need, and the simplest ways to make sure you and your baby are getting enough.

Your child may be losing the very nutrients their brain needs to function at its best, and when that happens, it can show up as exacerbated ADHD symptoms. In this episode of the Soaring Child podcast, Dana Kay uncovers one of the most overlooked underlying stressors of persistent ADHD symptoms, a condition where key nutrients like zinc and vitamin B6 are literally being depleted before the body can use them. Continuing the functional lab testing series, Dana breaks down the Kryptopyrrole (Pyroluria) test in a way that finally makes sense. She explains how this hidden imbalance can impact mood, emotional regulation, stress tolerance, focus, and even behavior, and why so many families never hear about it through traditional channels. You'll learn how this condition creates a cycle of nutrient loss and symptom flare-ups, the common signs to look for, and why even the best diet or supplement routine may not work if this piece is missing.

Robert Rapaport, MD, Professor of Pediatric Endocrinology, and Director of the Comprehensive Growth Center at the Icahn School of Medicine, Mount Sinai Medical Center, New York City, discusses the causes of growth hormone deficiency and its treatment. Growth failure in children is a considerable challenge for parents and pediatricians, with clinical and social stigma implications that may be avoided with early diagnosis.The most important issue in young patients with growth failure is to detect it early, according to Dr. Rapaport. “As soon as you see a major deviation from the [expected growth chart] norm, act on it, even at age 2,” he emphasized, “because we know that best outcomes result from early detection.” A growth failure diagnosis is delayed or underdiagnosed in minority groups; it is underdiagnosed in girls relative to boys. In most cases, children are referred to the Comprehensive Growth Center by pediatricians and primary care physicians, and it should be monitored from birth. Growth failure in children can be caused by growth hormone (GH) deficiency, malnutrition, celiac disease, pituitary tumor (which suppresses the release of growth hormone) or a very rare genetic deletion. Once the potentially nonendocrine causes of GH deficiency are excluded, then causes related to the hypothalamus–pituitary-thyroid axis should be investigated, said Dr. Rapaport. Growth hormone stimulation testing and low blood levels of insulin-like growth factor (IGF) and IGF-binding protein concentrations can help confirm GH deficiency as the cause. However, low IGF-1 levels can also be caused by excessively high GH levels. In children diagnosed with GH deficiency, weekly GH injections are typically prescribed. In addition to monitoring these children for potential side effects of the GH injections, Dr. Rapoport recommended that they should undergo lab testing for IGF-1 blood concentrations every 3 to 6 months, until the bones fuse (signaling the conclusion of growth).
What if the thing you struggle with most is not the thing that defines you? Too often, like Gideon from Judges chapter 6, we allow our pain, past, or perceived shortcomings to shape how we see ourselves, but Scripture reminds us that our identity is found in Christ, not our deficiency. If you've ever felt disqualified, not enough, or stuck in shame, this message will encourage you to see yourself through God's eyes and step into the freedom of who He says you are.
For decades, we've been told to avoid saturated fat. But what if one specific saturated fat is actually essential for healthy aging? In this episode of the ReThink Health Podcast, Dr. Stephanie Venn-Watson and I discuss a groundbreaking discovery that could completely reshape how we think about fat, aging, and metabolic health. While studying aging Navy dolphins, Dr. Venn-Watson and her team uncovered something unexpected… The healthiest, longest-living dolphins consistently had higher levels of a little-known fatty acid called C15:0 (pentadecanoic acid). And researchers now believe C15 may qualify as the first newly discovered essential fatty acid in over 90 years since omega-3s were identified. In this fascinating conversation, Dr. Venn-Watson explains how decades of low-fat dietary recommendations may have unintentionally lowered our intake of this critical nutrient. Plus, we cover what that could mean for rising rates of insulin resistance, fatty liver disease, accelerated aging, and metabolic dysfunction. You'll learn: What C15 actually is and why scientists are calling it a potential essential fatty acid How dolphin research unexpectedly unlocked new insights into human aging and metabolic health The surprising connection between low C15 levels, fragile red blood cells, iron overload, and accelerated aging Why higher C15 levels are associated with lower risks of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease How modern low-fat dietary trends may have contributed to widespread C15 deficiency Which foods naturally contain higher amounts of C15 The connection between C15, metabolic health, inflammation, liver health, and biological aging What RDW (red blood cell distribution width) may reveal about aging and cellular health If you've ever wondered whether all saturated fats deserve their bad reputation… or why rates of metabolic disease seem to be skyrocketing despite decades of low-fat advice… this episode has the answers!

Christopher Romero, MD, a pediatric endocrinologist at Mount Sinai Medical Center, New York City, and Associate Professor of Pediatrics at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai discusses arginine vasopressin deficiency. The name of the rare disease central diabetes insipidus was changed in 2024 to better reflect its etiology.Central diabetes insipidus, a rare disease, is unrelated to the common medical problem diabetes mellitus, other than they are both problems related to endocrinologic dysfunction. Whereas diabetes mellitus involves pancreatic function and the production of the hormone insulin, central diabetes insipidus involves the pituitary gland and regulation of the hormone vasopressin. Dr. Romero stated that a new name for central diabetes insipidus was introduced in 2024—arginine vasopressin deficiency (AVP-D) to reflect the difference and relieve misconceptions caused by the traditional naming. The central issue with AVP-D is the function of antidiuretic hormone, which regulates water concentrations in the body. Pediatric and adult patients with this vasopressin deficiency (which mediates antidiuretic hormone levels) excrete more urine than patients without the deficiency. “It causes these patients to drink more, to make up for the water loss,” said Dr. Romero, “resulting in kids being thirstier and having to use the bathroom more often.” As a result, AVP-D can lead to weight loss and loss of appetite, dehydration, and electrolyte abnormalities. He also pointed out that the abnormal cycle of drinking and urination in children interferes with school work and performance. “Unless you're aware of [AVP-D], you may miss the diagnosis,” said Dr. Romero. The pituitary gland is involved with so many functions, and symptoms only slowly evolve. Issues with the onset of puberty and growth may hint at the pituitary source of the problem. Historically, treatment was managed with an oral formulation of vasopressin, which was first available in the 1970s. An intravenous form was available in inpatient settings. A nasal spray formulation was subsequently developed, and is useful particularly with older children. Dr. Romero pointed out, figuring out the correct dosage for an individual pediatric patient is key; every child with AVP-D is different in terms of how much water they lose during the drinking–urination cycle. “Even though the oral form was effective, only two dosages were available. You have to titrate the dose to balance the water loss,” he emphasized.The introduction of Desmoda in February 2026, an oral solution of desmopressin acetate 0.05 mg/mL, allows for easier titration. The solution may be easier to take than the pills for young children, and caregivers may have a better idea of precisely how much medication the patient is getting. For those reasons, Dr. Romero believes this formulation may be the best option for young pediatric patients with AVP-D.

This episode is an interview with my husband, Jake, about his path from well-founded skepticism of Pathological Demand Avoidance to fully changing his parenting to support our two PDA sons, and how that has helped all three of them.This conversation is for parents who aren't sure about PDA, their partners who are, and everyone who has wondered what it actually looks like to shift the paradigm as the "non-lead" parent. Jake talks about the enforcer role he played, dreading coming home from work, what brought him to shift his perspective, and how he took action to change his relationships with his sons.Key Takeaways Why Non-Lead Parents Lag and Why That Is Not a Deficiency | 00:10:01 Jake explains that his skepticism about pathological demand avoidance came from the same place as his desire to be a good father: wanting his son to be okay long after he was gone. He names the specific experience of not being present enough during the day to witness what Casey was witnessing, the cognitive dissonance of a child who could race through Halloween trick-or-treating and then suddenly be unable to walk, and the ease with which behaviors that look manipulative can be written off as such. He is clear that lagging does not make a parent deficient. It makes them human.What the Enforcer Role Actually Felt Like | 00:24:12 Jake describes placing himself in the role of the disciplinarian and enforcer when Cooper was young, trying strict and punitive approaches consistently enough to know they were not working. He reflects on the moments when Cooper would submit, and how even those felt awful because he was a grown adult overpowering a four-year-old. He names the specific appeal of the pathological demand avoidance approach as not just intellectual but personal: he did not want to be that kind of dad, and the relational damage it was doing to his connection with Cooper was undeniable.Dreading 5PM and the Second Arrow | 00:43:44 Jake describes a period when he went from counting down the hours to the end of the workday to dreading them, knowing he was walking back into a home where the kids were dysregulated, Casey was stretched to her limit, and there was no joy. He names the second arrow clearly: feeling like a dad who dreads his own family, and then feeling guilty for that. He offers this not as a confession but as something he suspects many non-lead parents are sitting with quietly.The Trampoline Commitment and What It Built | 00:44:23 Jake shares a concrete example of how he found a way into connection with Cooper during burnout: committing to saying yes every time Cooper asked to go on the trampoline, even though the activity involved Cooper lying there while Jake jumped for twenty minutes. He frames it honestly as work, not fun fatherhood. But he also describes how, when his legs gave out and he lay down next to his son and started pointing at clouds, the small moments of connection began to accumulate. This type of commitment, he says, may be available to other parents who work full days and only have evenings.Vulnerability With Other Dads and the Masculinity Frame | 00:29:46 Jake reflects on coaching Cooper's tackle football team and the specific difficulty of needing other coaches to understand that Cooper's meltdowns were not a measure of his commitment or character, while knowing that a full explanation of Pathological Demand Avoidance would not land. He names the fear of judgment, and the discomfort of demonstrating vulnerability in a context that did not historically make space for it. He frames the masculine enforcer archetype as a stereotype that most men do not actually identify with but feel bound by because breaking it is a risk.Relevant ResourcesUnderstanding PDA — Free class with the foundational context that Jake describes eventually coming to through lived experienceBurnout — Free class relevant to the burnout phases with both Cooper and William that Jake discusses throughoutParadigm Shift Program — Our signature program where Jake hosts three live sessions specifically for non-lead parents

In this episode, Rowan Miller and Don Patterson respond to two common but often misunderstood questions: what happens to pets after they die, and how the Bible actually frames singleness. First, they address the emotional and theological assumptions people bring to the question of animals in the afterlife. While Scripture offers glimpses of a restored creation, it stops short of giving a definitive answer about individual pets. The discussion focuses on how to think carefully where the Bible is silent—without dismissing the goodness of God. Second, they walk through 1 Corinthians 7 and Paul's teaching on singleness. Rather than treating it as a problem to solve, Paul presents singleness as a legitimate and sometimes advantageous calling—while still taking sexual desire and human limitations seriously. This episode aims to separate biblical teaching from cultural assumptions and help listeners think more clearly about both eternity and everyday life decisions. 00:00:03 Do Pets Go to Heaven?

There are many possible reasons why you feel tired all the time. It's important to identify and address the root cause, not the symptom. Find out how to boost energy naturally by addressing the most common chronic fatigue causes at the source. 0:00 Introduction: Why am I always tired? 0:23 Constant fatigue causes 1:22 Fatigue and blood sugar4:26 Latent virus fatigue6:56 Low oxygen and chronic fatigue9:13 Low vitamin B1 and fatigue symptoms13:30 Adrenal fatigueDownload Dr. Berg's Free Daily Health Routine: https://drbrg.co/45qtO07Stimulating the body with caffeine can actually make fatigue worse. Instead of masking the problem, you need to get to the root cause of fatigue. Once you address it, you can often get rid of chronic fatigue completely.Not getting enough sleep significantly affects cognitive function. It also impacts blood sugar, increasing cravings and leading to more snacking. If you have insomnia, focus on simple habits like taking long walks in nature during the day without your cell phone, stretching before bed, dimming the lights at night, and avoiding snacking before sleep.If your blood sugar is constantly going up and down, you're going to feel tired. Even if there's plenty of food available, your cells aren't getting the fuel they need. One of the key solutions is to eliminate sugar and excess carbs from the diet.A slow thyroid, histamines, latent viruses, and electrolyte imbalances are some of the most common hidden causes of fatigue. Even a lack of sun exposure could be the reason behind chronic fatigue.Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 61, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

The Risk Intelligence Gap: How Exposure Data Deficiency Is Reshaping Property Underwriting In this episode of Scouting for Growth, Sabine VanderLinden is joined by Anthony Peake, CEO of Intelligent AI, to dissect the "Risk Intelligence Gap" reshaping the property insurance landscape. We are both dissecting the recent white paper Anthony commissioned during Q1 2026. With 93% of UK and 90% of US commercial properties insured for the wrong amount, the discussion reveals why the industry's vast data resources fail to reach underwriters in a form that is both actionable and trustworthy. Sabine VanderLinden and Anthony Peake delve into their co-authored research, examining the architectural, integration, and trust challenges at the heart of this crisis and exploring how API-first, verifiable risk intelligence is redefining underwriting. The episode is packed with real-world examples and actionable insights into how the property underwriting process must evolve from reactive data chasing to predictive, cognitive risk management. KEY TAKEAWAYS The scale of the risk intelligence gap in commercial property underwriting today is both alarming and transformative. We're not suffering from a lack of data; instead, we're hindered by fragmented architectures, poor integration, and a deep-rooted trust problem that leaves underwriters rating their data confidence at just three to five out of ten at the critical point of decision. This results in billions in unrecognized exposure and inefficient operational drag, with underwriters losing up to 55% of their day to tedious data gathering instead of strategic decision-making. Our findings underscore that technology alone is not the cure. While AI decision engines and sophisticated catastrophe models abound, their potential is constrained by the quality of the data that feeds them. The true opportunity is to build verified, explainable, and decision-grade risk intelligence, delivered directly into workflows through uniform APIs. The advent of digital twins for properties and real-time data integration equips underwriters with a 360-degree risk view, trimming inefficiencies, mitigating underinsurance, and creating a platform for predictive and preventive underwriting. Trust and explainability remain essential: underwriters will not act on data they cannot understand or audit—and they shouldn't have to. Only those insurers who move decisively from asserted to verified data, and from periodic snapshots to continuous monitoring, will achieve sustainable underwriting profit and own the best risk. The time to tackle this structural data problem is now. BEST MOMENTS "This is better engines running on worse fuel." — Sabine VanderLinden "The client pays for being underinsured—until regulators say the insurer must take responsibility." — Anthony Peake "We can create a model of all the data a risk engineer might manually collect—but do it very quickly and accurately." — Anthony Peake "People are making not million-dollar decisions, but billion-dollar decisions on thousand-dollar data." — Sabine VanderLinden "The real question isn't whether data matters.

Our guest this week is Matt Might of Birmingham, AL who is the director of the Hugh Kaul Precision Medicine Institute at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, a researcher, author, TEDx presenter and perhaps most importantly, father of three, including a son with NGLY1 Deficiency.Matt and his x-wife, Cristina, are the proud parents of three children: Winston (10), Victoria (14) and Bertrand who was born in 2007 and very sadly passed away in in 2020 at age 12. Bertrand was born with an ultra-rare genetic disorder known as NGLY1 Deficiency, which prohibits the creation of the enzyme N-Glycanase 1. At the time of diagnosis, NGLY1 Deficiency was so rare, Bertrand was considered an N of 1, the only person known to have this particular condition. Matt was a tenured computer science professor. Motivated to find a cure for his son he pivoted into the world of precision medicine. Through a brilliant blog post entitled: 'Hunting Down My Killer' they were able to find seven more children with NGLY1. Matt also gave a gave a highly informative and well delivered TEDx Talk. We also learn about NORD (National Organization for Rare Disease), the Great Science Foundation and NCATS (National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences) within the National Health Institute.

Special Fathers Network –SFN is a dad to dad mentoring program for fathers raising children with special needs. Many of the 800+ SFN Mentor Fathers, who are raising kids with special needs, have said: “I wish there was something like this when we first received our child's diagnosis. I felt so isolated. There was no one within my family, at work, at church or within my friend group who understood or could relate to what I was going through.”SFN Mentor Fathers share their experiences with younger dads closer to the beginning of their journey raising a child with the same or similar special needs. The SFN Mentor Fathers do NOT offer legal or medical advice, that is what lawyers and doctors do. They simply share their experiences and how they have made the most of challenging situations.Join the SFN U.S. Tour in one of 60+ locations all across the U.S. from May 21st to June 21st.

We dive into the often-overlooked topic of amenorrhea: the absence of menstruation. Biomechanist Katy Bowman and biologist Dr. Jeannette Loram unpack the science with a focus on Functional Hypothalamic Amenorrhea (FHA) linked to energy deficiency in athletes. They explore how intense training and and sport pressures around leanness or weight can disrupt regular hormonal signals, affecting long-term bone density, cardiovascular health, and performance. They also discuss the original concept of the Female Athlete Triad (low energy availability, menstrual dysfunction, and low bone mineral density) and its evolution into RED-S (Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport), a more holistic model encompassing many aspects of health and wellbeing.The conversation expands into evolutionary perspectives, comparing Western menstrual experiences—from menarche to menopause—with those of hunter-gatherer populations like the Hadza, and questioning what “normal” really means. Ultimately, this episode reframes intense athletics as a nuanced practice that must be supported by adequate nutrition and recovery.Enhanced Show Notes and Full Transcript00:00 – Intro & Sponsors02:45 – What Is Amenorrhea?05:40 – Primary vs Secondary Amenorrhea09:00 – Functional Hypothalamic Amenorrhea (FHA): Energy deficiency and hormonal suppression11:10 – Female Athlete Triad → RED-S: Evolution of understanding in sports science21:30 – The Hadza perspective: menarche to menopause25:25 – Negative consequences of amenorrhea: Bone Health 29:15 – IUD induced amenorrhea 37:00 – Historical and modern timelines for menarche compared to the Hadza 50:45 – Closing thoughts on ancient humans Links & Research Mentioned:Substack article that prompted this episode Dr Jen Gunter's article on the hormonal IUD and bone health Foraging & Menstruation in the Hadza of Tanzania Comparison between The Female Athlete Triad & RED-SConnect, Move & Learn:Join Our Newsletter: Movement Colored GlassesFollow Katy on SubstackTry Katy's Virtual Studio Free for 7 days!Made Possible By Our Wonderful Sponsors:Ikaria Design: The Soul Seat® offers height-adjustable, multi-position sitting—get 10% off new chairs and desks with code DNA10.Smart Playrooms: Beautiful playroom design and movement-rich equipment—save 10% on monkey bars and rock-wall items with code DNA10.Peluva: Five-toe minimalist shoes that move like you do—take 10% off with code NUTRITIOUSMOVEMENTMovemate: Active standing boards with smoothly articulating wooden slats.

One of the most powerful tools for healthy ageing might be something you've barely thought about: light. Most of us spend the majority of our time under LED lighting that's stripped of the very wavelengths our bodies need to function well – and the impact on our metabolism, energy and long-term health is only just being understood.Professor Glen Jeffery, neuroscientist at UCL's Institute of Ophthalmology, joins Liz to explain why a light deficiency could be quietly accelerating ageing, what it means for your mitochondria, and the simple changes – starting with your light bulbs – that could make a real difference to how you feel and age.In this episode:Why infrared light is the most overlooked wavelength for human healthHow LED lighting creates a "light deficiency" – and why Glen calls it modern-day scurvyThe profound effect light has on your mitochondria and energy productionWhy morning light mattersWhat the research really says about red light face masks and infrared saunasHow changing your light environment could help regulate blood sugar and metabolismThe simple practical changes to make at home – and why Glen's first recommendation is to get a dogLinks mentioned in the episode:Anti blue light glassesGet in touch with a question for Liz:Email: podcast@lizearlewellbeing.comWhatsApp: 07518 471 846More from Liz:Preorder Liz's new book – How to AgeA Better Second Half Follow Liz on InstagramFollow Liz Earle Wellbeing on InstagramSome links may be affiliate links, which help support the show at no extra cost to you.

PRE-ORDER the upcoming book now: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/the-bookAt the age of nine Luis was diagnosed with ADHD. He never medicated with pharmaceuticals: instead his drugs of choice were coffee, cigarettes, and a stimulating diet. Over the years Luis has learned how to reduce the stimulants needed to keep him engaged. ADD/ADHD is when there is not enough dopamine getting to the brain, usually because of low levels of brain and gut, or vagus nerve inflammation. People in this situation are sometimes referred to as “bored”, “lazy”, or "depressed", as a body collapses in to functional freeze. Camille and Luis discuss the upcoming 6-month ADHD Slow Group starting April 7th. It begins with learning to relate to the ADHD nervous system, overcouplings and judgments about ADHD behaviors, animism of the body, overwhelm, dopamine, relationships and finally cultivating a fascinating life. They will also teach how to leverage balancing foods, and how to consciously use stimulants.The gift of ADHD is a low capacity for bullsh*t, or as Luis calls it RITC, a Radical Inability To Conform. Instead of seeing it as a disorder, we see it as the dopamine deficiency that it is, so that we can learn to relate to in a healthier way.

Welcome to the very first Hormone Hotline episode of The Hormone Solution! I'm getting straight into your real-life questions about estrogen—because why, in 2026, are we still being told we're "estrogen dominant" with rock-bottom levels? If your doctor has warned you against HRT, this episode is for you. Have you been told you can't start estrogen until you hit full menopause? Or that perimenopause is just too much of a "hormone rollercoaster" to treat? I break down what's actually happening in your brain and ovaries during late perimenopause, and why adding estrogen might calm the chaos instead of fueling it. And what about those scary detox pathways and DUTCH test results? Does favoring a certain estrogen metabolite mean you're disqualified from HRT? I unpack the myths around estrogen metabolism, aging, bone loss, mood, and even biological age. Could estrogen be one of the most powerful anti-aging tools we have? In this episode, we uncover: Why "estrogen dominance" in menopause often makes no physiological sense. How estrogen therapy can stabilize perimenopausal hormone rollercoasters. What DUTCH test results really mean for HRT candidacy. Why waiting until menopause may accelerate aging and bone loss. How estrogen impacts mood, metabolism, and long-term mortality risk. If you've been confused, dismissed, or flat-out denied estrogen, you need to hear this episode! Have a question for our next Hormone Hotline episode? Fill out our form here.

How did Lucky Charms end up scoring "healthier" than eggs on the Tufts Food Compass, and what does that say about modern nutrition advice? If you've ever found yourself confused by food nutrient rankings like this, this episode is for you. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Ty Beal, a global nutrition researcher known for bringing real nuance to the most polarizing food debates (animal foods, ultra-processed foods, vegetable oils, saturated fat… yes, all of it!). Ty breaks down what nutrient density actually means, why micronutrient deficiencies are far more common than most people realize (even in high-income countries), and why we can't "fortify our way" out of poor diet quality. He also explains the thinking behind his global nutrient-density rating system, built around the nutrients people are most likely to be missing, and adjusted for bioavailability. You'll learn: Why "quick energy" foods can look healthy on paper… while leaving your body undernourished The surprising prevalence of micronutrient deficiencies—and why they matter for energy, cognition, and long-term health What most nutrient-rating systems miss (and why ultra-processed foods can score absurdly high) The top nutrient-dense foods to keep stocked in your kitchen Why the food matrix matters, and why fortified nutrients aren't equivalent to nutrients in whole foods Ty's balanced take on saturated fat, red meat, and the often-unspoken truth about nutrition science A practical look at what Ty actually eats to optimize nutrient density (without being dogmatic) If you're tired of black-and-white nutrition advice and want a smarter, more grounded way to think about food quality, this episode will help you cut through the noise and focus on what actually supports long-term health.

Your fluoride toothpaste and antiseptic mouthwash may be sabotaging your cardiovascular health and canceling out the benefits of your daily workout. In today's episode, I sit down with Dr. Nathan Bryan to uncover how nitric oxide deficiency drives high blood pressure, erectile dysfunction, insulin resistance, and even Alzheimer's disease. Nathan explains why 50% of men on Viagra don't respond with better erections, how mouthwash kills the bacteria your body needs to produce nitric oxide, and why heavy metals scavenge this critical molecule before it can reach your blood vessels. We explore practical solutions such as using nitric oxide lozenges, reducing exposure to harmful substances, and supporting the oral microbiome to restore your body's natural production. "Without nitric oxide, your body cannot heal. It's not going to get adequate blood flow, you're going to experience runaway inflammation, oxidative stress, and immune dysfunction." ~ Nathan Bryan In This Episode: - Nitric oxide and its importance for our health - Nitric oxide and erectile dysfunction - Exercise and bacteria for nitric oxide production - Oral microbiome and dangers in your mouthwash - Signs and consequences of low nitric oxide - Age-related decline in nitric oxide production - Heavy metals and toxins that scavenge nitric oxide - How to restore nitric oxide - Nitric oxide lozenges and skin care solutions - The beet product myth debunked - High blood pressure medication limitations - Who needs nitric oxide supplementation?

In honor of Valentine's Day, celebrated as a day of love and friendship, we're focusing on Venus. Venus is the planet associated with archetypes of love, beauty, and relationships. Valentine's Day is often seen as being for lovers, but let's broaden the Venus archetype to include reflecting on the beauty in your life and the love you have for everyone in it. In this episode, we explore Venus in excess and deficiency through the lens of medical astrology and herbalism, examining how this archetype shapes the kidneys, reproductive system, circulation, relationships, and the deeper work of balance and self-understanding. Here's what you'll learn about: How Venus patterns show up physically: urinary and reproductive manifestations of Venus excess and deficiency The tissue states behind these patterns (lax/leaky vs. dry/tense/depleted) Herbs used to balance Venus patterns — from urinary tract remedies to reproductive support strategies How excess/deficiency works as a spectrum (not a binary) in both astrology and clinical herbalism The Venus–Mars polarity and why Venus issues often involve Mars dynamics The Aries–Libra axis as a map of self vs. other and how imbalance affects relationships The Taurus–Scorpio axis as a map of values, depth, transformation, and intimacy ———————————— CONNECT WITH SAJAH AND WHITNEY ———————————— To get free in depth mini-courses and videos, visit our blog at: http://www.evolutionaryherbalism.com Get daily inspiration and plant wisdom on our Facebook and Instagram channels: http://www.facebook.com/EvolutionaryHerbalism https://www.instagram.com/evolutionary_herbalism/ Be sure to subscribe to our YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyP63opAmcpIAQg1M9ShNSQ Get a free 5-week course when you buy a copy of the book, Evolutionary Herbalism: https://www.evolutionaryherbalism.com/evolutionary-herbalism-book/ Shop our herbal products: https://naturasophiaspagyrics.com/ ———————————— ABOUT THE PLANT PATH ———————————— The Plant Path is a window into the world of herbal medicine.
