In this episode of the Homeopathy 247 podcast, host Mary Greensmith welcomes back homeopath Elisa Joulfaian for an in-depth look at the powerful remedy Lycopodium. Though not always the first remedy that comes to mind for first aid, Lycopodium is surprisingly useful in both acute and chronic situations—especially when digestive issues and anxiety are involved. Lycopodium and the Digestive System Elisa begins by highlighting Lycopodium's strong connection to digestion. It's her go-to remedy for bloating, gas, and digestive upset—especially when the pain or discomfort is focused on the right side of the body. It's also helpful when symptoms worsen between 4:00 and 8:00 p.m., a key characteristic of the remedy. Lycopodium is particularly useful after heavy meals or when someone feels uncomfortably full but still wants to eat more. This paradoxical combination—a big appetite with digestive distress—is typical in Lycopodium cases. It's even suitable for colicky babies or children with gas. Confidence, Anxiety, and the Lycopodium Personality One of Lycopodium's defining emotional traits is the contrast between outward confidence and inner anxiety. Elisa describes this as someone who may appear bold or controlling but is secretly afraid of failure or rejection. This shows up frequently in children who act bossy or demanding but then hide behind their parent's leg when confronted. Adults with a Lycopodium picture may seem confident in public, but suffer from self-doubt internally. This remedy is especially helpful before public speaking or high-pressure situations where nerves take over. It's also commonly associated with reading difficulties or dyslexia, which often stem from a fear of failure. Comparing Lycopodium and Nux Vomica Mary and Elisa compare Lycopodium with another popular remedy—Nux Vomica. While both can treat digestive complaints, the emotional profiles differ. Nux Vomica types are driven, intense, and impatient, often pushing through pain or discomfort to get things done. In contrast, Lycopodium individuals are more laid-back outwardly but deeply affected by anxiety, self-doubt, and the fear of underperforming. Nux Vomica personalities also tend to overwork and overplan—even during rest or holidays—while Lycopodium people are more inclined to retreat and recover quietly, though they still want to be seen as competent. Physical and Emotional Clues to Look For Elisa explains that choosing the right remedy isn't just about physical symptoms—it's about matching those with emotional traits and patterns. She recommends looking for at least three strong indicators across physical and emotional areas. For Lycopodium, key clues include: Symptoms worse from 4–8 p.m. Right-sided issues (like eczema, pain, or throat inflammation) Gas, bloating, or overeating Anxiety around performance or failure Reading or word recall difficulties Interestingly, Lycopodium can also help with skin conditions like eczema (especially right-sided) and even facial tics or involuntary movements. A Family Favourite Remedy Elisa points out that Lycopodium is one of those rare remedies that people often return to again and again. If it suits a person constitutionally, it tends to be effective across multiple situations—whether it's a physical flare-up or emotional stress. This makes it a strong candidate for your home first aid kit. Mary adds that Lycopodium often helps clarify the picture and open the door to deeper healing. It's both versatile and transformative, especially when physical complaints are intertwined with emotional patterns.

Dr. Iris Wang of the Mayo Clinic shares cutting-edge insights on gut health across the lifespan, including advancements in pharmacogenomics for personalized medication selection and innovative breathing techniques to relieve abdominal distension.

Dr. Wang also emphasizes the importance of starting gut health education early, helping kids and parents alike understand that pooping shouldn't be painful or forced. • How pharmacogenomics helps identify why some patients metabolize medications differently, leading to better medication choices with exploration on the hope and/or hype of precision medicine in the GI world (Wang et al 2019)• Explanation of abdomino-phrenic dyssynergia (APD) – when the diaphragm moves downward instead of upward, causing visible abdominal distention• Specialized breathing technique developed in Barcelona that retrain the diaphragm for bloating relief (Barba E et al 2024) - see video link below• The importance of normalizing healthy pooping habits from childhood through education & tools like toileting stools (e.g. Squatty Potty)• Warning signs for parents about childhood constipation – including stool leakage, straining, & urinary problems (Tran DL et al 2023)• How yoga can support gut health through mindful movement, core engagement, & stress reductionYoga videos:Yoga For Digestion Flow| Yoga With Adriene (26 mins)Yoga for Bloating, Digestion, Ulcerative Colitis, IBD & IBS (12 mins)Check out Dr. Wang's children's book Boo Can't Poo, which helps normalize healthy pooping habits for kids while educating parents too.References:Wang XJ, Camilleri M.

Happy Satiated Saturday! Anyone else notice how much noise there has been recently about carbohydrates and protein? Protein has to be in everything. I literally just got an email this morning from a company that is now making protein granola.

Holaaa :)En este ultimo episodio de la temporada hablamos de uno de los temas más frecuentes (y mal entendidos) en la consulta médica: el uso de inhibidores de la bomba de protones (IBPs) como omeprazol, pantoprazol, esomeprazol asi como anti-H2 como famotidina de manera cronica y en muchos casos de problemas gastrointestinales como dispepsia o reflujo. Pero antes, os explicaré qué células producen el ácido, por qué lo necesitamos, y qué puede pasar cuando lo bloqueamos durante demasiado tiempo. También os contaré las causas detrás de síntomas como el reflujo, la dispepsia o la digestión pesada, y cuándo tiene sentido usar IBPs de forma puntual o más prolongada.Ademas, intentaré repasar con vosotros el algoritmo diagnóstico en distintos casos clínicos (reflujo, esofagitis, dispepsia funcional, esofagitis eosinofílica), y contaremos en qué situaciones pueden ayudar complementos alimenticios o ajustes del estilo de vida.Todo con una idea clara: no demonizar ni idealizar estos fármacos, sino entender bien cómo y cuándo usarlos.Ojala os guste y sobre todo os sirva mucho :)Para mas información ya sabéis que me tenéis en mi instagram @isabelvina dónde te comparto contenido diario Mi TikTok @isabelvinabasEn mi canal de YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-dfdxLBcvfztBvRAKZSXGQY los suplementos formulados por mi https://ivbwellness.com

Send us a textDo you experience gas, bloating or indigestion?  You may need to work on your kindling your digestive fire.  In Ayurveda, we call this agni.  A digestive fire that burns just right will make digestion more efficient and can have a positive impact on other body systems.  In this episode, I delve into the importance of digestion and its impact on various aspects of health, including the nervous system, hormones, and immune function. I share five practical and cost-free tips to improve digestion: drinking warm or room temperature water, chewing food thoroughly, maintaining consistent daily meal times, being mindful around snacking, and eating in a relaxed state. Emphasizing the role of self-love and mindfulness, I encourage listeners to experiment with these practices and observe the benefits over time.In this episode: The Importance of Digestion in AyurvedaTip 1: Drink Warm or Room Temperature WaterTip 2: Chew Your Food ThoroughlyTip 3: Create Daily RhythmsTip 4: Be Mindful Around SnackingTip 5: Eat in a Relaxed StateMy resources:Weekend Nervous System Reset Deep Rest MeditationNourished For Resilience Workbook Book a free Exploratory CallFind me at www.nourishednervoussystem.comand @nourishednervoussytem on Instagram

In this episode of the Health Fix Podcast, Jannine Krause explores the intricate relationship between weight gain and sexual health. She discusses how changes in body weight can affect circulation, confidence, and libido, and emphasizes the importance of addressing these issues holistically. Drawing from her experiences and insights from Chinese medicine, she highlights the role of digestion, stress, and lifestyle habits in weight management. The episode also offers practical solutions, including dietary adjustments and herbal remedies, to help listeners regain balance and improve their overall health.   What You'll Learn In This Episode: Weight gain can impact sexual health and libido. Circulation changes with weight gain affect confidence. Chinese medicine offers insights into weight management. Damp accumulation in the body can lead to weight gain. Stress affects liver function and digestion. Eating habits and meal timing are crucial for digestion. Herbal remedies can support digestive health. Weight gain patterns are often linked to lifestyle changes. Maintaining balance in the body is essential for health. Open communication about sexual health is important in relationships. Resources From The Show: HCL Challenge - Get Thorne Betaine HCL + Pepsin - take one capsule with meal one and watch for any burning, no burning go for 2 capsules with the next meal and increase by one capsule till you either reach 5 capsules or you have a slight burning in the stomach. The more capsules you can tolerate without a burn the more deficient in stomach acid you are. Use 1 teaspoon of baking soda in a few ounces of water and drink it. You can repeat the baking soda drink if needed. Most people will end up taking between 2-6 HCI capsules per meal. Digestive Enzymes - Steven Wright's Company "Healthy Gut" - HCL Guard + Holozymes Apex Energetics - Enzymix Pro Active Herb - herbal company Blue Poppy Herbs Herbs I mentioned in the podcast: Gui Pi Tang — For weak digestion and fluid retention. If you feel puffy or gain weight quickly after eating, this is your ally. Shan Zha Jian Zhi Pian — This one breaks down fat. It's amazing for folks who stress eat or binge on sugar. Long Dan Xie Gan Wan — Helps the liver chill out, especially if you're dealing with reflux, constipation, and bloating. Ba Zhen Tang — When you're just wiped out, lacking motivation, or not even hungry, this one helps restore yang and blood to energize the body. Liu Wei Di Huang Wan — This is a staple for perimenopause and menopause support. It nourishes yin and helps with vaginal dryness, low libido, and overall hormone balance. Chinese Medicine Patterns I talk about: Damp accumulation: That puffy, sluggish weight gain Phlegm: Which is the Chinese term often equated to fat gain Liver Qi Stagnation: When stress causes your liver to "attack" your digestion Blood and Yang Deficiency: Low energy, lack of movement, low motivation  

What happens when healing becomes another form of harm? When the search for purity, wellness, and relief becomes a maze of restriction, shame, and exhaustion? In this quietly radical conversation, Konstanze Weiser joins us to speak not as an expert, but as someone who lived it from childhood illness to orthorexia, Panchakarma to spiritual burnout. We explore the parts of wellness culture we don't often talk about: the obsession with food, the spiritualization of suffering, the silent shame around digestion and embodiment. Konstanze shares what it took to finally stop outsourcing authority, soften her grip, and listen to her own body. What emerged wasn't a protocol, but a practice. Not control, but connection. This is not a story of being healed. It's a story of no longer needing to be. Subjects Explored Orthorexia and the glorification of “clean” eating When Ayurveda becomes another system to get right Panchakarma, shame, and the desire to purge pain Digestive distress, embodiment, and feminine silence Yoga practice as participation, not perfection Letting go of healing as a project Food, feeling, and the return to simplicity Key Phrases or Quotes “It wasn't the food. It was the shame.” “I believed my body couldn't heal unless I followed all the rules.” “At some point, I didn't even have the capacity for shame anymore.” “I don't use food to compensate as much anymore—because I don't need to.” “Healing isn't about fixing. It's about not betraying yourself.” “My practice is non-negotiable. But it's not because I'm trying to improve. It's because it brings me back.” Key Takeaways Orthorexia is often hidden in wellness culture – When food becomes a moral issue, restriction masquerades as discipline. Systems are not saviors – Ayurveda, yoga, or detox can become prisons when driven by fear or perfectionism. Digestion and shame are deeply linked – It wasn't the food causing distress. It was the silence, the hiding, the internalized shame. Embodiment is not a theory – Real practice means listening to the body, not overriding it with ideals. Simplicity is a form of intelligence – Healing came not from doing more, but from letting go. The body already knows – The role of practice is to help us trust it again.

This episode was recorded at the 2025 Florida Ruminant Nutrition Symposium. Microbial protein has always been Dr. Frikins' main interest. It's the most important and consistent source of protein for the cow, with a very high amino acid content. Histidine is the only exception, but bypass protein sources high in histidine complement microbial protein well. Our assessment of microbial protein is all based on prediction models. In his presentation, Dr. Firkins talked about what we can do to have consistently high microbial protein production and how to make the best use of the models. He touched on starch and fat content as two areas of focus, emphasizing a balanced diet to achieve a balanced supply of microbial protein. (5:36)Dr. Firkins notes that about 90% of the bacteria in the rumen can't be cultured, and there is great diversity in the rumen. There's a core group of bacteria that almost every cow has that are really good at their job because they've been co-selected along with the cow for fiber digestion. The panel discusses how much the microbiome changes over time, host interactions with the microbial population, and inoculation of calves at birth and weaning. (8:47)Dr. De Souza and Dr. Faciola talk about starch associative effects and their impacts on fiber digestibility, how sugars impact the rumen and butyrate production, and the importance of butyrate in de novo milk fat synthesis. Dr. Frikins hypothesizes that when sugars improve fiber digestibility, the sugar stimulates how fiber digesters do their job. Some studies have shown an increase in rumen pH when sugars are supplemented, which may be part of the mechanism of improved fiber digestibility. However, he doesn't recommend using sugars when there is a lot of starch in the diet. (13:38)Dr. Faciola and Dr. Firkins discuss some of the finer points of the dietary starch and fiber digestibility relationship. What are you replacing when you add more starch? What is the proper amount of effective fiber in higher-starch diets? On the other hand, if you decrease starch a little bit, there might be more room for fat. Well-managed cows with adequate effective fiber can probably handle more starch. Dr. Firkins underlines that starch is more digestible than fiber and thus supports microbial protein, but an optimum level is desirable, perhaps 28-20%. (20:37)The panel talks about microbial growth efficiency and the energy-spilling mechanisms some bacteria have. Some models suggest that starch-digesting bacteria have higher maintenance energy requirements. The group then pivots to methane production and available feed additives marketed to reduce methane. Dr. Firkins notes that there is quite a bit of variability in the additives. He emphasizes that if we're using these products, we need to know and measure what's in them and have them be consistent. This is challenging due not only to variability in product, but also rumen adaptation. Dr. Firkins also reminds the audience that improving the cow's efficiency in general in a variety of ways will lead to a smaller environmental footprint. This can range from improving reproductive efficiency to understanding differences in the microbiome of cows who emit more or less methane and trying to shift microbial populations to those with lower emissions. (23:12)Dr. De Souza and Dr. Firkins discuss fatty acid supplementation and fiber digestion relationships. Dr. Firkins explains that in the microbiology literature, it's common to culture bacteria in a simple or complex medium, then add yeast culture. Interestingly, the yeast culture contains a lot of palmitic acid, which has been shown to improve fiber digestibility. He suggests the cell membrane of the bacteria is very critical. When fat supplementation depresses fiber digestibility, he suspects it's disrupting the bacterial membrane. Dr. De Souza recommends 1-2% palmitic acid in the diet for optimal results. (33:58)The panel touches on the importance and relevance of in vitro fermentation work, why histidine is the limiting amino acid in microbial protein, and Dr. Firkins' passion for protozoa.

You'll learn how to:   Eat a nutrient-dense diet rooted in real, whole foods (not calorie math), following Weston A. Price principles and honoring your bio-individual needs. Optimize digestion, the root of all health, by chewing thoroughly, practicing mindful eating, and supporting stomach acid and enzyme function (see Episode 11 for more). Balance blood sugar with small, daily habits like walking after meals and pairing carbs with protein and fat (see Episode 28). Improve sleep through calming evening routines, avoiding stimulants before bed, and aligning with your circadian rhythm.

In this episode, Dr. Jockers and Steve Wright explain why many people stay inflamed even after removing toxins and eating clean. The real issue isn't exposure—it's lost immune tolerance, and the solution is rebuilding resilience.   You'll learn about the five gut defense layers that regulate your immune system. Fixing oxygen balance, mucus layers, and gut cell mitochondria is key to restoring proper function.   They also cover how para-probiotics—dead bacteria—can retrain an overactive immune response. If you're sensitive to foods, histamines, or your environment, this episode lays out what to do next.   In This Episode: 00:00 Introduction to Early Childhood Exposure and Health Benefits 02:59 Interview with Steve Wright: Retraining a Broken Gut Immune System 05:26 Understanding the Immune System and Its Connection to the Gut 08:02 Challenges in Modern Health and the Importance of Gut Resilience 10:50 The Role of the Gut in Immune Function and Balance 23:04 Layers of the Gut and Their Functions 26:36 Mitochondria and Gut Health 27:59 Impact of Antibiotics on Gut Microbiome 28:47 The Role of Stomach Acid in Digestion 31:51 Resetting Gut Health 33:27 Individualized Diets and Food Tolerance 36:44 Repairing Gut Health: Steps and Supplements 40:32 Para Probiotics: An Overview 44:51 Healthy Gut Products and Protocols 48:46 Final Thoughts and Recommendations     Still cooking with seed oils?
