About the Guest(s): Dr. Chad Woolner is an industry leader in functional medicine, focusing on innovative approaches to combating chronic health issues. As a clinician and host of the Simplified Functional Medicine podcast, Dr. Woolner emphasizes practical methods for improving patient health outcomes through stress resilience and hormetic strategies. Dr. Andrew Wells is a renowned expert in the realm of functional medicine, known for his expertise in stress management and holistic health practices. As a co-host on the Simplified Functional Medicine podcast, Dr. Wells brings valuable insights into the latest research and strategies for enhancing health through lifestyle and physiological interventions. Episode Summary: In this episode of the Simplified Functional Medicine podcast, Dr. Chad Woolner and Dr. Andrew Wells delve into the often-misunderstood topic of stress. Challenging the conventional advice to reduce stress, they explore the concept of hormesis, advocating for the introduction of good stressors as a solution to chronic health problems. This episode details how calculated stress can heighten resilience and improve cellular functions, providing a fresh perspective on stress management in the context of functional medicine. The episode navigates through various strategies to harness stress positively, discussing practical methods like breathwork, exercise, and cold immersion therapy. By focusing on these energizing hormonal interventions, Drs. Woolner and Wells outline how patients can enhance their stress resilience, improve mitochondrial function, and ultimately foster better health outcomes. The podcast also critiques the traditional view of stress, proposing instead that the perception of stress plays a crucial role in its impact on health, as supported by the work of Dr. Kelly McGonigal and other prominent researchers. Key Takeaways: Stress is not inherently detrimental; the perception of stress can alter its impact on health significantly. Hormetic strategies, or calculated stressors, can build resilience and enhance cellular function. Breathwork, particularly hyperventilation techniques, serves as a simple yet powerful method for boosting mental and physical energy. Regular physical activity, tailored to individual preferences, significantly benefits mitochondrial health and stress resilience. The brain can be trained to manage stress effectively through consistent exposure to controlled stressors. Notable Quotes: "Stress is only bad for you if you think it's bad for you." - Dr. Andrew Wells "Our bodies are designed not just to handle stress but to actually thrive when exposed to the right types of stress." - Dr. Chad Woolner "Each time you step into a cold immersion barrel or exercise, you're training your body that you have way more control over the stress response." - Dr. Andrew Wells Resources: Book: The Upside of Stress by Dr. Kelly McGonigal - A pivotal resource referenced during the podcast conversation.

In this unforgettable episode, Robert sits down with the legendary Wim Hof, also known as The Iceman, for a transformative conversation on the true potential of the human mind and body. Together, they explore how deliberate exposure to cold and conscious breathing unlock powerful physiological and spiritual benefits, awakening dormant capacities that modern society has long ignored. Wim shares how his journey began with soul-searching as a teenager and how his instinctive dive into icy waters led to 26 world records and groundbreaking scientific validation. From suppressing inflammatory responses to accessing subcortical brain regions, Wim explains how his method grants access to states once considered superhuman—but are, in truth, innately human. The two also dive deep into hormesis (growth through stress), the role of intention, the power of love over fear, and their shared fascination with the pyramids and the hidden musical geometry of the universe. This episode is a call to awaken, reminding us that the mind is not limited, and that fear, trauma, and suffering can be transmuted into strength, health, and purpose.

In case you missed out on yesterday's email and/or social media announcements: the newest edition of my RLT eBook was released! This has been a long time coming and a labor of love. As decent as the previous versions have been (not trying to toot my own horn), the protocols provided in those editions were, more or less, centered around a particular light irradiance. That meant if you had a device with a different light irradiance, you would have to do some clever calculations to recalibrate your RLT treatment protocol. Thankfully, that is no longer the case.With this newest eBook that is entitled, The Red Light Guide, you now have access to my innovative RLT Treatment Protocol Ecosystem. This ecosystem essentially allows anyone with any RLT device to develop an science-backed, individualized RLT protocol based on what they are trying to treat. Out with the old rigid protocol paradigm, in with the infinitely versatile ecosystem.In today's episode, I begin reading The Red Light Therapy Guide from the very beginning, essentially providing an audiobook version of the eBook. I wade through the Important Concepts and Important Considerations (as it relates to RLT) sections of the eBook, which covers the first ~15 pages of this 130+ page PDF eBook. I will continue reading through this eBook in future solosodes to complete this audio version of the eBook so that you RLT podcast junkies can get your fill of the newest information available.

The course of her career and her life took a sudden turn when she developed myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia and environmental sensitivities in 1989 during her psychiatry residency. She experienced the same lack of informed care that everyone else faces and as a result made the decision to focus her practice on chronic complex diseases. Since then, she has worked closely with thousands of patients integrating conventional and integrative approaches to help them improve their health and function. In 2017 Ellie had a significant improvement in health. She has spent a lot of time considering what led to this and how to teach it to others. Since retirement from medical practice at the end of 2022, Dr. Stein devotes her time to providing online education -- teaching actionable, no-to-low-cost strategies to people worldwide who are seeking guidance and support for chronic, complex diseases. Knowledge puts power in the hands of the people who need them. She finds it so rewarding to get messages from people who are improving their health and are regaining hope that improvement is possible with knowledge that already exists.   Dr. Eleanor Stein's gift and link: I am working on a free handout on hormesis which will fill in some of the gaps we may not get to.Promotional handout is in process.

Episode Summary: In this illuminating episode of Functional Health Radio, host Dr. Kristin Hieshetter delves into the concerning trends of declining life expectancy and rising chronic disease rates in the United States. With a powerful narrative that highlights statistics from the CDC and the World Economic Forum, the episode serves as a wake-up call to the healthcare system's dire need for preventive strategies and well-being-oriented models. Dr. Hieshetter addresses the significant impact on the health of low-level laser therapy (LLLT), distinguishing it from traditional medical laser applications. She explains the different classes of lasers and their medical applications, focusing on the potential of Class II low-level lasers in enhancing the body's healing capabilities. Dr. Hieshetter also discusses the concept of hormesis and its importance in understanding the therapeutic use of lasers. Key Takeaways: The life expectancy in the United States has been declining, which, coupled with increasing rates of chronic diseases in children, calls for an urgent revamp of the healthcare system. Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) is a promising, non-invasive treatment that can accelerate the body's healing process and manage various conditions without the risks associated with higher-class lasers. Dr. Kristin Hieshetter distinguishes between the different classes of lasers, emphasizing the safe application of Class II low-level lasers. The principle of hormesis is crucial in LLLT, as it represents the fine balance needed for optimal dosing—where too much or too little can be ineffective or harmful. Inspiring case studies demonstrate the profound impact of LLLT in improving conditions as diverse as broken bones, post-operative pain, chronic pain management, and even stroke recovery. Notable Quotes: "Life expectancy of the United States of America fell for both men and women." "Forbes magazine said that the future of healthcare is to collectively transform the existing system from treatment-based recovery to prevention and well-being." "With low-level lasers, it's not about power, and it's not depth of penetration. These are not surgical procedures." "Photons are those little energized packets of light that, when applied to living systems, trigger photochemical changes within cells responsive to photons." "If we can change brains, we can change pain and pain perception. This is where it gets fun." Resources: The podcast does not explicitly mention any URLs or social media handles, but interested listeners can refer to the website of Erchonia (www.erchonia.com) as it was discussed in relation to preferred laser devices by Dr. Kristin Hieshetter. Readers may also look into "The Brain's Way of Healing" by Norman Doidge for an in-depth exploration of healing through low-level laser therapy. Tune in to the full episode of Functional Health Radio with Dr. Kristin Hieshetter to discover transformative health insights and learn about the future of healthcare through preventative measures and innovative treatments like low-level laser therapy. Stay connected for more episodes that pave the way towards a healthier society.

Have you tried all of the popular detox methods, but continually feel worse and worse?    In this episode of Biohacking Superhuman Performance, I chat with Dr. Dan Pompa about why popular detox methods aren't the answer to many of the chronic problems people are suffering from. True detox starts within the cell, and Dr. Pompa discusses the 5 Rs - a step by step guide to cellular health. We also discuss many detoxification myths, hormone resistance (which can be caused by toxins in the cell!), and the process of hormesis.    Overall, this episode offers guidance on upregulating your cell's detox pathways, how to adapt to good stress for maximum benefits and the importance of reducing inflammation.    For the past two decades, Dr. Pompa has been designing, practicing, and teaching his cellular detox strategies around the world, to both practitioners and the public. Dr. Pompa's powerful presentations focus on ancient fasting strategies, cellular detox, his multi-therapeutic approach to healing, and common, but frequently misdiagnosed autoimmune, hormone, and neurodegenerative conditions. Dr. Pompa's own story, which he has titled “From Pain to Purpose to Promise,” unveils how his health struggles, family tragedy, and legal battles have transformed him into a powerful health and longevity evangelist which led him to fulfill his purpose.

Many detox treatments can work in the short term, but real detoxification starts with the cell. Our cells can naturally detox themselves unless they are overwhelmed. For a lasting, sustainable detox, start working to upregulate the detox pathways in the cell. The steps for true detoxification: One - upregulate detox pathways in the cell so the toxins are pushed out of the cell. Two - chelators outside of the cell help move the toxins out of the body. Three- Binders are used to mop up any leftover toxins in the gut and liver to remove them from the body.  Hormesis is a good type of stress for the body. You can activate it with exercise, eating stressed plants, cold and heat exposure, and fasting. But it's important that your body is adapting, otherwise it just turns into a huge negative stress.

In this podcast, we're going to talk about the concept of hormesis. Hormesis describes two things that might oppose each other. In terms of health, hormesis refers to a controlled dose of stress that makes positive changes for your body. With hormesis, you can adapt to various types of stress, including exercise, radiation, cold, heat, hypoxia, plant chemicals, pesticides, insecticides, and fungicides. Sulforaphane found in broccoli sprouts and radish sprouts triggers the heat shock protein that allows the body to strengthen its detoxification enzymes. In this instance, the body is exposed to a small amount of poison that strengthens its ability to get rid of other poisons. The liver contains phase 1 and phase 2 detoxification enzymes that can take a poison and turn it into a harmless particle. Sulforaphane triggers this system. Exercise is one of the best examples of hormesis. Exercise induces microinflammation but then allows the body to get rid of inflammation. Fasting activates the body's mechanisms that counter starvation. It encourages our brain cells to grow, increases mitochondria, and regenerates the immune system. Health is often counterintuitive. For example, cutting fat won't help you lose fat, and sterilizing your environment won't protect you from getting sick. You can't develop a strong immune system without getting sick. Antibiotics destroy good bacteria in the body, which can lead to pathogen overgrowth. Antacids can lead to more heartburn because you need more acid to get rid of heartburn. When you don't expose yourself to the sun, you put yourself more at risk for certain types of cancers. Many people have been told that the sun causes cancer, but the sun gives us vitamin D. Having a deficiency in vitamin D can increase your risk for cancer. One last example is dieting. The more dieting you do in your lifetime, the more weight you will gain—especially if you're doing it incorrectly.

She realized she had been struggling with health issues as she went through college and continued to experience more. Eventually, she was also diagnosed with skin cancer.     Through her recovery journey, she found her passion for being a personal trainer.     The sun is not the cause of skin cancer. Instead, it is what is happening underneath the skin. [04:50] When Nothing Seems to Work, Think Mold!     Jenn discussed how her family was residing around the Northern California farm fields where substantial power lines and other aspects that possibly have radiation affected her health.     After about two years of being healthy and feeling great, Jenn's health started deteriorating again due to her mold exposure.     If pets have similar symptoms of mold exposure, such as weight loss, it signifies unhealthy environmental changes.      Mold exposure causes estrogen elevations, resulting in weight gain, breast tenderness, and acne.     Exercise alone will not get you well in this day and age. [26:26] The Body's Reaction to Stress     When your body is experiencing a load of stress, you have to redefine what stress is.     Hormesis is staying in this hormetic feeling, and a slight stress you adapt to is excellent. But the body will not adjust to a strenuous workout if your stress bucket is filled with different kinds of stress.     Devices such as oura rings are great tools for creating consciousness and awareness of what is happening to our bodies.  [37:25] The Root Cause of Acid Reflux & How to Get Rid of It!     The most common correlation with acid reflux is an H. pylori bacteria overgrowth.     Another common correlation with acid reflux is eating inflammatory foods like gluten and dairy or grains.     People with a stressful lifestyle tend to have H. pylori bacteria.     Keratin's purpose is to capture this oxygen free radical and protect against oxidative damage so the leaf is not destroyed. [43:51] What is the Most Accurate Test for H. pylori?     As there are different lifestyles, there are also corresponding tests for testing H. pylori, such as stool samples and GI map tests.     Most Vitamin Es are 95% Tocopherol, and 5% will be Tocotrienols. [47:12] The Best Tips For Supporting Liver Health     The liver helps to filter things out from getting into the gut, such as toxins and other stuff.     Since World War II, over 150,000 toxins have been introduced into our environment. Research shows us that our body encounters two pounds of toxins daily.     Because humans live longer lifespans than animals and organisms, the evolution of changes in the body takes longer.     Eat organic, minimize toxic exposure from food, manage skincare products, and keep environmental surroundings clean.

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Tero Isokauppila. Tero is the founder of Four Sigmatic, a nature-centric Finnish-American company specializing in functional mushrooms, superfoods, and adaptogens. Born in Finland to an agronomist father and nursing teacher mother, Tero was the 13th generation to grow up on the Isokauppila farm. There, he foraged for mushrooms and other wild foods while learning about nature at an early age. In this, he frequently channeled his middle name Tapio, the Finnish god of forests, animals, and mystics. Following his early education on the farm, Tero later completed a Degree in Chemistry and a Certificate in Plant-Based Nutrition from Cornell University. In 2006, he won a Finnish innovation award for discovering that the sought-after Japanese culinary matsutake mushrooms also grow in Finland. In 2012, he left a corporate position to start Four Sigmatic. Tero is a reputable source on superfoods, an expert on natural health, and has been a featured speaker, for example, at Summit Series, Wanderlust, Further Future, Culinary Nutrition Conference, and WME-IMG. In this episode, Tero Isokauppila speaks about how adaptogenic mushrooms improve human performance. Depending on your health goals, Tero breaks down how long you may need to try adaptogenic mushrooms to reap the health benefits. Whether you like it or not, we are all consuming fungi in some form or another. Tero reveals the best way to introduce plants into your diet, especially if you have gut issues. Tune in as we chat about the benefits of mushrooms on our sleep, mood, and stress levels.  Get Tero's Books: https://www.amazon.com/Tero-Isokauppila/e/B075FWW236/benazadi-20 Purchase Four Sigmatic here: https://foursigmatic.sjv.io/yRN663

Today, I am incredibly fortunate to welcome a dear friend of the show, the one and only Dr. Pompa. He is a respected leader in the field of functional medicine, educating practitioners and the public on the origins of inflammation-driven disease, the therapeutic application of the ketogenic diet, fasting, ancestral-based health approaches, cellular healing, and detoxification.  Dr. Daniel Pompa received his undergraduate degree in communication from The University of Pittsburgh, and his doctor of chiropractic degree in 1995 from Life University. He is the author of the books Cellular Healing Diet and Beyond Fasting and he hosted a weekly Cellular Healing TV Podcast and YouTube show.  In this episode, Dr. Pompa offers insights into debates and practices shaping our understanding of optimal well-being. The discussion unfolds by examining plant toxins, lectins, and anti-nutrients as Dr. Pompa dives into the ongoing discourse surrounding their perceived dangers and potential role in diseases and autoimmune conditions. Plus, Dr. Pompa advocates for a personalized approach, emphasizing the importance of listening to the body's signals and adapting to environmental or dietary stressors. Tune in as we chat about cold therapy, where Dr. Pompa challenges the misconception of a universal three-minute rule, underscoring the individualized nature of optimal exposure. This episode is about a more personalized and nuanced approach to holistic health.  Free 5 Day Keto Challenge With Dr Eric Berg, Cynthia Thurlow, Ben Azadi & The Keto Kamp Team: https://www.ketokamp.com/keto-challenge Download your FREE seed oil allergy card here: http://www.seedoilcard.com  Join Ben Azadi's 90 day heavy metal detox program (11 spots available): https://ketokamp.clickfunnels.com/order-page-a  / / E P I S O D E   S P ON S O R S  Wild Pastures: $20 OFF per Box for Life + Free Shipping for Life + $15 OFF your 1st Box! https://wildpastures.com/promos/save-20-for-life-lf?oid=6&affid=132&source_id=podcast&sub1=ad BonCharge: Blue light Blocking Glasses, Red Light Therapy, Sauna Blankets & More.

[00:20] The Debate on Plant Toxins: Insights on Health, Adaptation, and Cultural Diets -       Dr. Pompa acknowledges that there is a discussion in the health space regarding the dangers of plant toxins, lectins, and anti-nutrients. Some individuals argue that these substances are the root cause of diseases and autoimmune conditions. -       Dr. Pompa points out the logical inconsistency in blaming plant toxins for health issues, considering the historical and cultural variations in diets. -       Many cultures have thrived on diets that include plant-based components, such as the Mediterranean diet, suggesting that plant toxins may not be the sole culprit. -       Dr. Pompa introduces the concept that, like any stress applied correctly, exposure to plant toxins can have beneficial effects. -       He suggests that small amounts of these toxins, when ingested, may act hormonally, applying stress to the microbiome and potentially making it stronger through adaptation. [03:45] Understanding Body Signals in Response to Stressors and Dietary Change -       Similar to various stressors like hot or cold exposure, fasting, and exercise, the key is to listen to the body and observe how it adapts. -       Dr. Pompa emphasizes the importance of paying attention to one's feelings and symptoms as indicators of the body's response to different stressors, including dietary changes. -       Dr. Pompa questions why many people today react to certain foods while previous generations did not. -       He suggests that the cause may be an inflamed gut and microbiome. However, he argues that the current focus on plant toxins might be misplaced, and the real problems could be other toxins, such as glyphosate and certain heavy metals that people are unknowingly exposed to. [05:55] Embracing Personalized Approaches for Cold Therapy -       The current trend in the health and biohacking space involves various forms of cold therapy, including cryotherapy, cold plunging, and cold showers. -       There is a common misconception that three minutes is the ideal duration for cold baths or showers. -       The benefits of cold therapy stem from the body's response to the stress of cold exposure. If an individual adapts to the stress, positive benefits such as the rise of neuropronephrine and increased growth hormone can occur. -       Dr. Pompa stresses the importance of listening to the body and adopting a personalized approach to cold therapy. Starting with lower durations and gradually increasing based on how the body responds allows individuals to determine their optimal exposure time. [12:50] Navigating Cooking Oils for Optimal Health -       Dr. Pompa acknowledges that individuals may have different experiences with the Keto diet. -       He suggests that some people may have a negative experience with Keto, but it could be influenced by the specific type of Keto diet they are following. -       Dr. Pompa highlights the awareness of the damaging effects of certain cooking oils, such as vegetable and canola oil. -       He and others take precautions when dining out by informing waitstaff about allergies to these oils due to their oxidative effects on cells over an extended period.

Today, I am blessed to have Abel James with me for the second time. He is a best-selling author, top 10 app developer, musician, radio show host, entrepreneur, and health crusader, Abel James. Abel's work has been featured in WIRED Magazine, Paleo Living, and hundreds of media outlets in business, technology, psychology, and health. Within its first year, Abel's Fat-Burning Man Show rose to the #1 most popular health podcast in the United States and the United Kingdom and went on to top the charts in more than seven countries across the world for the past two years. A former strategic advisor to the food and beverage industry, Abel now acts as a consumer advocate who exposes the truth behind deceptive marketing practices, misleading corporate propaganda, and powerful special interests that have accelerated the worldwide obesity epidemic and health crisis. Abel harnesses the techniques he developed for the Wild Diet to achieve extremely compelling fat loss and health results for his clients and the community. Abel's quick-start guide, Intro to Paleo and The Musical Brain, are distinguished as #1 Amazon bestsellers in health and psychology. The Musical Brain explores evolutionary biology and how musical training and experience affect the brain. Abel and his team developed Caveman Feast, the #1 App in Food and Drink worldwide and the #6 App overall in the Apple Store in 2013. Abel has advised Fortune 500 and federal government clients, including Microsoft, State Street Global Advisors, Lockheed Martin, the Department of Education, the Department of Labor, and the Library of Congress. In this episode, Abel opens the show by speaking about social media's negative impacts on our health. Instead, we need to focus on falling back in love with the right media types. Then, Abel jumps into keto flexing and the importance of metabolic flexibility. Abel explains why he's such a massive fan of intermittent fasting, but of course, your feasting days are just as critical.  This episode originally aired in May 2022.

Social media is so superficial that it's challenging to post anything meaningful.  Instead, we should be falling in love with the right kind of media. Social media is making people anxious and bummed out.  [16:10] If You Want To Grow A Brand, You Need To Have A Podcast  If you want to create content for the rest of your life, start a podcast.  The problem with podcasting is oversaturation. Eventually, there will be more podcasts than there are listeners.  A podcast is something that you own. Whereas your TikTok channel isn't something that you own. This will be critical as we look toward the future of the decentralization of media. [19:45] How You Can Apply Keto Flexing To Your Life  Many people think that going hard is better. However, it's all about finding balance.  If you want to build muscle, then insulin is not your enemy, and neither is glucose. Whether you like it or not, you'll go back to eating carbs for one reason or another.  Being able to store carbs on the shelf is really important. You need to learn how to use and store all the different macronutrients, including carbs.  Remember, you can't eat 350 grams of processed carbs a day and expect to see results.  [27:00] Why Abel Loves Intermittent Fasting and How It Helps With Mental Strength  Abel loves how simple fasting is.  Fasting can mentally and spiritually build strength.  There are many ways to approach fasting. Abel got into fasting by pushing breakfast until later in the day.  We are taught that the more you eat, the more strength you build. However, Abel had to overcome that type of thinking.  Eventually, Abel started eating one meal a day.  Abel recommends reading The Warrior Diet: Switch on Your Biological Powerhouse For High Energy, Explosive Strength, and a Leaner, Harder Body: https://www.amazon.com/Warrior-Diet-Biological-Powerhouse-Explosive/dp/1583942009/benazadi-20. [33:35] Why Feasting Is Just As Important As Fasting   What we put in our bodies matters. Your eating can result in massive deficiencies or a relative abundance of multiple nutrients.  You can approach health in a way that is creative and fun.  Feasting is a way to nourish your body in a nutrient-dense way.  Try and make feasting as enjoyable and as high-quality as you possibly can.  [37:45] Waking Up In The Morning Is A Special Time To Reframe Your Thinking  Waking up in the morning is a sacred time. You should protect the brain state right after you wake up.  When Abel wakes up in the morning, he practices some self-defense against technology. Give yourself as much time before you jump on your phone, social media, or the news.  Write down your dreams when you wake up. This creative process is critical for reframing your day and your mind.  AND MUCH MORE!

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Dr. Stephen Sideroff. Dr. Stephen Sideroff is an internationally recognized expert in resilience, optimal performance, addiction, neurofeedback, and alternative approaches to stress and mental health. He is an Associate Professor in the Department of Psychiatry & Biobehavioral Sciences, with a joint appointment in the Department of Rheumatology at UCLA's School of Medicine, as well as the Director of the Raoul Wallenberg Institute of Ethics. For over 40 years, Dr. Sideroff has been passionate about studying and understanding resilience and optimal performance. He has developed and established innovative models of behavior and treatment approaches for restoring physical, emotional, and mental balance and effectiveness in North America, Europe, and Asia. In this episode, Dr. Sideroff talks about why we decided to dedicate his life to resilience. Unfortunately, many people have great resistance to managing their stress. That's why Dr. Sideroff discusses the importance of keeping your nervous system in a good place, how your childhood environment plays a role in your resilience, and unpacking the unconscious to face difficult feelings. Tune in as we dive into Dr. Sideroff's Resilience Assessment Booklet and how to measure a critical aspect of your physiology.  This episode originally aired in 2022. / / E P I S O D E   S P ON S O R S  PureForm Omega Plant Based Oils (Best Alternative to Fish Oil): http://www.purelifescience.com Use ben4 for $4.00 off.

He was interested in finding the brain's connections, so he started a career as a brain researcher.  Eventually, he started doing stress management workshops for organizations and corporations. After the workshops, people felt inspired to make changes in their lives. A few months later, very few people actually followed through with those changes. Down the road, Dr. Sideroff began to identify why we have great resistance to managing our stress.  [05:45] Keeping The Nervous System In A Good Place Through Resilience  When we think about resilience, we think about the ability to bounce back and recover after a stressful event.  If you view the world as dangerous, you expect a problem to arise.  When you anticipate danger, your body mobilizes for that danger.  If you're continually activating your nervous system in preparation for danger, you're not allowing your body to recover fully. The ability to bounce back is part of resilience.  [09:40] How The Environment of Our Childhood Will Affect Our Resilience  Primitive Gestalt patterns are how our brain develops throughout childhood based on the lessons of our childhood environment.  Our brain literally forms its circuitry based on those childhood lessons. We adapt to our childhood environment. Then our adaptation gets locked in. If our childhood was dangerous, we as adults continue to think the world is just as dangerous. Resilience is about being able to think outside the box and adapt to our current environment.  Many of the consequences of our childhood are not something that we're always conscious about. [14:50] Unpacking The Unconscious To Live A Happier Life The first step in unpacking the unconscious is a willingness to face complicated feelings, emotions, and issues.  Next, you have to be accepting of whatever emotions you have. You can love your mother and father yet still be angry at them. Living a happier and healthier life is about a willingness to grow up. [20:50] The First Three Pillars From The Path: Mastering the Nine Pillars of Resilience and Success What is the most crucial relationship that you have? It's the relationship with yourself.  Consider these questions: Are you critical and judgmental of yourself?  Do you put yourself down?  Are you loving, accepting, and compassionate toward yourself?  The first pillar is all about how you treat yourself and then comparing that to the healthy or ideal way of treating yourself. You can do this by becoming consciously aware of your thoughts.  The second pillar is your relationship with others. Are you able to tell the difference between healthy and toxic relationships?  The third pillar is a relationship with something more significant; this extends to the community at large.  [33:40] Autonomic Dysregulation Syndrome and The Process of Aging  Dr. Sideroff has proposed an actual diagnostic code which he calls autonomic dysregulation syndrome.  70 to 80% of visits to the doctor's office result from this autonomic dysregulation syndrome.  It underlies whether you have headaches, high blood pressure, or autoimmune disease.  We now have direct evidence that stress speeds up the aging process.  All illness is simply an expression of the aging process.  Luckily, resilience is one way of slowing down the aging process.  [38:45] Get The Resilience Assessment Booklet From Dr. Stephen Sideroff  Here's a link to The Resilience Assessment Booklet: https://drstephensideroff.com/resilience-assessment-booklet-395/ Dr. Sideroff has created a comprehensive model for living in balance and health.  His assessment booklet identifies the nine components of his model and gives a brief and readily understood description of these nine elements of a foundation for resilience.  It then presents a 40 item questionnaire and self-scoring profile that allows you to gauge your areas of strength along with those areas needing more significant development. [43:45] The Connection Between Heart Rate Variability and Gratitude Your heart rate is never on a constant level.  If it is constant, that's a sign that you are unhealthy.  You want to have a heart rate change in a very systematic way. Heart rate variability links your cardiovascular system, nervous system, respiratory system, and emotions.  As you breathe in, your heart rate speeds up because you're activating the sympathetic branch of your nervous system. One of the things that facilitate optimal heart rate variability is gratitude. AND MUCH MORE!

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Marek Doyle. He has spent the last 17 years developing a model of individualized nutrition based on data from over 3,000 individual outcomes, 11,000 test findings, and significant utilization of the scientific literature. Marek is a functional nutritional therapist. In addition to his Academy training course for practitioners and enthusiasts in London, England, Marek offers one-on-one consultations for customers. He holds a Master of Science degree in Personalized Nutrition.  Marek has always greatly respected and fascinated with the human body. He was always driven to nutritional therapy since it is the most fundamental aspect in impacting human biochemistry, and he has spent almost two decades improving his methods. Marek has an MSc in Personalized Nutrition (CNELM/Middlesex Uni), as well as a CertHE in Nutritional Medicine, a Diploma in Allergy and Environmental Therapy (BIAET) and a Diploma in Advanced Nutrition for Optimal Health (GBF/BCMA).  His viewpoint is shaped by everything that can enable him to precisely pinpoint each person's major challenges and predict the result of any given option. It is shaped less by exact answers and more by asking the right questions, which are formed from his personal experiences, combining the mechanical knowledge taken from the scientific literature with the wisdom embedded in traditional healing systems, and by making observations gleaned from working directly with thousands of people. In this episode, Marek speaks about how our bodies can repair themselves so long as you identify the hurdles that prevent it from happening, the flaws of modern weight loss methods, the pros and cons of the ketogenic diet, how the mitochondria work under stress, and things you need to remember before going on a diet.

Finding out what that obstacle is is the key to overcoming certain health issues. Once these obstacles are taken away, everything becomes much easier for an individual. These interferences aren't easy to identify or solve, which is why it is up to everybody to identify what they are. [06:28] The Flaws of Popular Weight Loss Methods Many influencers, nutritionists, and dieticians claim that energy balance is the only thing you'll need to lose body fat. Calories in and out are a big deal; however, both can change. This concept is entirely dependent on the body not changing its energy usage all day which makes it very flawed. The calorie concept is deceptive because it works short-term for weight loss but not fat loss. There is a massive difference between these two. [12:00] The Pros and Cons of the Keto Diet Two camps are relevant to this diet.
