Hemp has been used for thousands of years as a medicine to help with pain and inflammation in the body. It's fatty acid breakdown is similar to that of flaxseed thus it's omega three component makes it ideal for use as an anti-inflammatory. What hemp contains in addition to essential fatty acids is CBD (cannabidiol), a plant chemical that binds to receptors in our endocannabinoid system, a component of our nervous system, to relieve pain, reduce anxiety and inflammation. CBD, is one type of cannabinoid as there are approximately 113 cannabinoids found in the cannabis plant. The secret to getting the maximum benefit from hemp is in the delivery of it to the body, aka the absorption, and it's best achieved through liposomal delivery techniques.

We hear the word inflammation all the time and we are told we need to reduce it but what is inflammation? Inflammation is a natural process in which the body repairs damage to it's tissues.

Movement and exercise have been shown to have a plethora of benefits but I've found it to be incredible for boosting my energy, mood and motivation. Too many people come into my office saying they once were runners then they stopped because of life, kids, work demands and injuries then their health started to decline and now they do not exercise at all. If they could just run again they know they would get that endorphin hit and feel better but they are too tired to exercise. Why do I see this over and over again? Exercise keeps our stress in check by keeping our heart rate variability high and allowing us to respond better and adapt faster to stressful situations. If we adapt better we will have better moods, more energy and be able to socialize better. Sedentary lifestyles and lack of social connection lower our ability to adapt to stress. In this episode Doc J tells her own story of how she stopped thinking of exercise as a weight loss tool and turned exercise into a daily social event to help her manage stress, maintain her motivation to workout, and boost her energy all while keeping her HRV in check.   What You'll Learn In Today's Episode: Why most fail to keep up an exercise routine Why group exercise fights depression & boosts motivation Why running isn't the ideal route to fitness How to keep exercising for life

The strength of your vagus nerve determines how you react to pain how you recover from stress, and workouts in addition to how well you are able to balance your mood. Your vagus nerve is in control of your heart rate and it's variability. Heart rate variability (HRV) is a great body check in tool that lets you know how well you are managing stress. Your ability to keep your HRV stable is associated with improved mood, increased desire for social interaction and focused thinking. The lower your HRV is the harder it is for you to adapt to stressors in your environment, making you more likely to develop mood disorders, isolate yourself socially, be more fatigued, and have chronic pain. Becoming more in tune with your body's signals is a great way to monitor your health. When you are more in tune with your body's stress triggers you are able to make interventions to improve well being. In this episode Doc J breaks down how paying attention to your HRV is a great systems check in tool to help your get to know your body's signals better so that you can keep your pain, mood and mental sharpness dialed in for life.   What You'll Learn In Today's Episode: How HRV monitoring allows you to dial in your health Why HRV monitoring reduces fatigue and pain How HRV check-ins improve focus and mood Why being in tune with HRV improves your social life

The strength of your vagus nerve can determine how intensely stress affects you. Ever wondered how and why stress can make you physically sick in many ways?

The vagus nerve is a nerve that comes directly from the brain and has connections to and from the heart, lungs, ear, tongue, throat, esophagus, stomach, intestines, liver, pancreas, gallbladder, kidney, ureters, spleen, female reproductive organs.

MicroRNAs have been researched for over 20 years and thousands of them have been identified in that time.  While research in the realm of microRNAs has been heavily focused on cancer we are now starting to see data on how our lifestyle choices, exercise, physical fitness and the type of diet we consume directly affect microRNA levels in our body.  In this episode Doc J breaks down why microRNAs may be a way to assess the impact of your diet and lifestyle on your overall health and what diet and lifestyle interventions seem to make the most impact on overall health.

A detox can be useful to clear toxins from the body and reset after a long run of eating out, making poor choices and drinking too much but is it really worth it? Too many people try to detoxify their bodies but don't have the vitamins and minerals in their body to do so. Unfortunately, all too often we detox, don't even know if we cleared anything out of the system and then go right back to re-toxing ourselves the day after the detox. After you finish a detox the goal is to focus habits to keep your immune system running on all cylinders and your blood sugar balanced but we rarely do this.
