Did you know that toxins can have a direct impact on your weight? Clinical nutritionist and functional medicine practitioner Josh Gitalis dives into this topic to tell us more about obesogens, toxins, and how we can detoxify to gain optimal health. You can find all the info and links about this episode at https://holisticwellness.ca/episode61. Topics Discussed in this Episode: What are obesogens The places where we can find these toxins Endocrine disruptors and its effects Strategies that we can utilize to detoxify The channels of elimination Where to start detoxifying your home Infrared sauna for detoxing and sweating Detox foods The benefits of using mushrooms in blends and teas The best strategies for supporting the immune system Juicing: Is it good or bad? How to avoid Alzheimer’s becoming your destiny when it runs in your family Gluten or dairy: Which is worse? Bloating problems and how to fix them   Key Takeaways: Obesogens are chemicals that increase the number of fat cells created in the body as well as the amount of fat stored by the body. One of the easiest ways for toxins to get into our body is by taking them orally. We can have thoughts that are toxic and really cause sickness in our body. When someone is overweight, the excess weight is not the problem, it’s just a symptom of the problem. The infrared sauna is one of the most well-researched ways to detox. It’s amazing for getting out all sorts of fat-soluble compounds and even water-soluble compounds. The only way to get rid of cadmium effectively is through sweat. Foods that are great for detoxifying include raspberries, flax seed, broccoli sprout, cilantro, and parsley. Mushrooms are amazing immunomodulators. The most important thing for the immune system is sleep. If you’re not getting enough sleep, you’re more prone to colds and infections. Sugar is a huge drain on our immune system. A couple of teaspoons of sugar can depress the immune system for up to 5 hours.   Action Steps: Strategies to detoxify Get rid of any toxins that could be coming into your body before you try to detox it. Get rid of all plastic as much as possible. Make sure your food is as toxic-free and clean as possible. Optimize the five channels of elimination. Poo every day. Pee multiple times a day. Get rid of toxic thoughts. Help your two internal cleansing systems, the liver and the lymph, to do their job. Eat a diet with tons of color. Detoxify your home. Start with the bedroom. Open the window a little bit, have some indoor plants, get rid of the cell phones and the electric clocks, and get the blinds closed as much as possible. You can also get a natural mattress.   Josh said: “I eat what’s right for me in that moment, at that time, based on what my body needs… I don’t subscribe to any one specific dogma. I don’t believe in labels when it comes to food because then people get bogged down by that label and it can prevent them from healing.” “If you’re eating vegan or you’re eating paleo, you’re still eating and want to eat a ton of vegetables, which is really where all the power lies. And when in doubt, just eat broccoli.”   Thanks for listening! Important Announcements: Connect with me over on Instagram, @holisticwellnessfoodie!

 http://www.joshgitalis.com/functional-nutrition-certification Functional Nutrition http://learntruehealth.com/functional-nutrition/ Understanding Functional Nutrition Many of you may have never heard of Functional Nutrition or do not know what it is. It is a relatively new specialty which looks at the way our body is affected by food on a cellular level. Josh Gitalis is on board with us today to expound on what Functional Nutrition is all about. Getting Into Functional Nutrition For someone as young as Josh Gitalis, his impressive resume blew me away! He graduated with a Bachelor of Arts (Honors) in Kinesiology from the University of Western Ontario in 2004. In 2006, he became a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS). Pursuing further studies in the Holistic world, Josh Gitalis graduated with honors from the Institute of Holistic Nutrition in 2007.  A notch on his Functional Nutrition belt is becoming a Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner in 2016. However, Josh Gitalis’ list of accomplishments doesn’t stop there. Aside from Functional Nutrition, he has varied interests. His interests include working in the past as a personal fitness trainer and health coach. Josh Gitalis, however, decided to focus on Functional Nutrition after attending a conference on Holistic Nutrition and soil health. Soil Health Before we think of just eating organic foods, Josh Gitalis says we must consider soil health. He says that when we have conventional food, the soil used to grow those plants are depleted. Hence, it makes us more susceptible to disease. How exactly are we depleting the soil? Apparently, because plants can’t protect themselves, farmers need to use massive amounts of chemicals to fend off disease and pests. “Food is our sustenance. It is nature’s way of taking the power of all those elements and putting it in a package by what we call food,” explains Josh Gitalis. “We need healthy soil to do that because it is where our food derives all of its nutrition.” Eating The Right Organic Foods Now that organic food is getting popular, what are the best organic foods? For one thing, we can look at foods in the grocery store that most resembles the original food. Josh Gitalis advises people to look at what is the most nutritious option, like wild foods. Search for foods that most resemble their ancestors. It’s not hard to look for wild foods. Wild foods have more medicinal properties. And antioxidant is a perfect example. “Ever since farmers first planted seeds 10,000 years ago, humans have been destroying the nutritional value of their fruits and vegetables,” said Josh Gitalis. “Unwittingly, we’ve been selecting plants that are high in starch and sugar, low in vitamins, minerals, fiber, and antioxidants for more than 400 generations.” For those wanting to explore a diet of wild foods, Josh Gitalis recommends an excellent book entitled, ‘Eating On The Wild Side,’ by Jo Robinson. The book provides a list of wild foods that can easily be found in groceries and supermarkets, as well as their nutritional content. Essential Supplements Josh Gitalis offers a plethora of nutrition and health programs suited for your needs. A big part of his wellness programs is making sure patients benefit from four supplements as a base. These include multi-vitamins, probiotics, a healthy essential fatty acid combination, and Vitamin D. Like Vitamin D; Josh Gitalis says many people are likewise deficient in Vitamin C. “Everyone should be taking Vitamin D,” advises Josh Gitalis. “Research shows many people are deficient in Vitamin D. It doesn’t matter where you live because most people are not outside all the time. The only way to check is through blood work.” Consequently, he says symptoms are the language of the body. And we need to understand what that language is, so we don’t get to a point where the body is trying to yell at us. That’s what this middle ground is all about. “Each organ, gland, and cell in our body has about four to seven times the capacity of what it needs to run its system,” Josh Gitalis explains. “The body has some resilience, and it can work both ways. We can break down our resilience until we get to the point of dysfunction or we can build resilience.” Dealing With Stress Josh Gitalis likewise encourages meditation to help patients cope with stress. Yoga is also an excellent way to relieve stress. According to him, all types of stress is registered in the body in the same way. The body can’t distinguish the types of stress. Hence, it is important that we have a system in place to be able to process that stress. A good reference to help one understand the mind and body connection is the book, ‘Molecules of Emotion,’ by Candice Pert. The book provides surprising revelations about how our body is linked to our thoughts in a biomolecular point of view. “Stress isn’t necessarily a bad thing. A small dose can be good,” said Josh Gitalis. “Exercise is a stress on the body. A little bit is good, too much is bad. If you can recover from your exercise, then you’re on the right track.” Success Stories Josh Gitalis claims that most of his patients attested they could handle stress better after signing up for his programs. Mostly, Josh Gitalis says this is because his programs focus on body awareness and the ability to look within. “We all have this intuitive ability within us to know what the body needs,” said Josh Gitalis. “Health Coaching and Functional Nutrition is the future medicine. Consequently, we see results that some people might call miracles.” Josh Gitalis has seen many sides of the health care system. He worked as part of the sports medical crew for the University of Western Ontario football team, tending to acute and chronic injury.  Josh Gitalis then went on to work as a fitness coach and subsequently qualified as a Certified Strength and Conditioning Coach with the National Strength Conditioning Association. He realized that the key to optimal health is targeted nutrition and lifestyle interventions. This inspired him to gain further training as a Certified Nutritional Practitioner.  Wanting to learn more about combining the best of conventional medicine and functional medicine, Josh Gitalis completed his Functional Medicine certification with the Institute of Functional Medicine based in Washington DC.
