Happy Satiated Saturday! In my early 20's, I went on a journey to heal my gut. After years of being in pain, I got a colonoscopy and endoscopy completed to check to make sure I didn't have a digestive disorder. The only thing the doctor prescribed me with at the time was IBS or Irritable Bowel Syndrome and told me to watch my triggers and that was it. I felt frustrated and confused. And so I dove into everything I could learn about the gut. Now, I know many of you have heard me talk about how it's often not about food yet rather the state you're eating food in that affects how food is digested and assimilated. AND, I have a very sensitive digestive tract. I discovered along the way that there were some foods that absolutely did not work with my body and left me feeling pain, bloated, mentally foggy, digestively uneasy, and drastically affected my bowel movements.If you're someone who has some kind of medical food guidance AND you're trying to heal your relationship with food to experience food as safe, this can be difficult to navigate. Having been on this exploration myself and supported others when they discover a food does not resonate with their body or needs to be taken out to support the body with a particular symptom, I wanted to offer some support if you find yourself on a similar path.In this week's episode, I share four somatic approaches to food when you need to take certain foods out of your daily eating for medical or body listening purposes. You will learn about Boundary Mentality, the healing nature of choice, and what to do if you're not ready to let a certain food go that doesn't resonate with your body.You can also read the transcript to this week's episode here: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/feeling-safe-and-empowered-with-foodThere are 20 days left to sign up for the Somatic Eating® Program!

Jason Johnson has a passion for Police K-9's and he has dedicated his life to working with them, as well as training and taking care of them. Jason believes that Police K-9's perform selflessly for the departments and agencies they work for, and in return, they are not offered that same respect, in their retirement years, by those they served. It is Jason's goal to ensure he educates the public on the costs and responsibilities of adopting a retired hero and that every Police K-9 in the United States has their medical, food and end of duty costs taken care of for them so they may live the healthy and happy retirement that they deserve. Jason served in the U.S. Federal Government in multiple positions worldwide as Subject-Matter Expert and Field Canine Coordinator for the National Explosives Detection Canine Team Program within the Department of Homeland Security/TSA, Lead K-9 Trainer and Course Developer at the ATF National Canine Training Center, Lead K-9 Instructor for the State Department's Anti-Terrorism Assistance Program, and as High Threat Protection K-9 Handler in Iraq and Afghanistan protecting the U.S. Ambassador and other dignitaries on mobile executive protection details. Prior to his government service, Jason was a civilian Police K-9 Trainer and Handler, an Adjunct Professor at Henley-Putnam University, and a Military Police Officer with the U.S. Army. He also holds a Master's Degree in Security Management and is an accredited K-9 Instructor through the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center. Jason is the Founder of the Project K-9 Hero Foundation, a national nonprofit 501c3 organization, whose mission is to provide medical care, food, and death benefit assistance for our nation's retired Police K-9s and Military Working Dogs.

Interesting study on how meditation can improve your health! “Psychological stress typically triggers a fight-or-flight response, prompting corticotropin-releasing hormone and catecholamine production in various parts of the body, which ultimately disturbs the microbiota. In the absence of stress, a healthy microbiota produces short-chain fatty acids that exert anti-inflammatory and antitumor effects. During stress, an altered gut microbial population affects the regulation of neurotransmitters mediated by the microbiome and gut barrier function. Meditation helps regulate the stress response, thereby suppressing chronic inflammation states and maintaining a healthy gut-barrier function. Conclusions • The current research team recommends the integration of meditation into conventional health care and wellness models. Concurrently, studies to explore the effects of meditation on human microbiota are warranted.” https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/29306937 It is unique analysis to see what is going on “under the hood” and then we can determine your “areas of opportunity” with nutrition and health building lifestyle habits. Ideally, we run the full investigation (my Health (RE) Building Packages) with you to see the WHOLE pictures with other labs to help identify more clues of hidden internal sources of chronic stress but at least you can get a head start into learning more about your gut terrain and status of microbiome with BiomeFX lab test. I can email you a sample lab report if you are curious. The lab test results will provide us with clues towards your areas of opportunities to optimize your health from the inside out. Read more about the test and analysis on my blog here As you know, I have been focusing continuing education over the past ten years to become certified as a Functional Nutritional Therapist, Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner, CHEK Holistic Lifestyle Coach, Ben Greenfield's Kion (plus Superhuman Coach) health coach and more trainings. Since high school, I was always interested and curious about nutrition, health and exercise as we need it all – as what I term “The WHOLESTIC Method” to be fit and healthy from the inside out. One of my favorite quotes is “you can't out exercise a bad diet” and “you can't out supplement poor lifestyle habits”. More than ever, we should be striving to feel our best each day by running well chosen functional lab tests (test and assess instead of guessing!), investigating the external and internal sources of chronic stressors (inflammation) and then creating an individualized “D.R.E.S.S. for Health Success” protocol. What are you doing now to build your immune system and resiliency? I have been blogging and podcasting since March about the immune system and ways we can build our resiliency. Tune in to my weekly blogs and podcasts here. Let me know if you want to chat about different options for you to take ownership of your health to burn fat, optimize your gut function and improve the aging process by scheduling a time with me here to dive in deeper to your needs and goals.

Pomegranates are as close to a miracle food as Mother Nature gets. Pomegranates protect your heart, safeguard your estrogens, “sensitize” insulin receptors better than many diabetic drugs without nasty side effects, slow down aging, and fight cancer. Pomegranates fight against lots of bad stuff. Anti-inflammatory Anti-oxidant Anti-bad cholesterol Anti-heart disease Anti-kidney disease Anti-cognitive disease Anti-diabetic Anti-obesity Anti-carcinogenic Pomegranates support a lot of good actions: Pro-nitric oxide availability and levels Pro-kidney health Pro-blood vessel health Pro-heart health Pro-bone health Pro-immune supportive Pro-mitochondrial support Pro-brain protection In this show you will learn exactly how pomegranates protect heart health: Makes APOCIII genetic glitches work better. Lowers bad cholesterol Lowers Oxidized Cholesterol Makes cholesterol less dangerous and less sticky. Boosts enzymes that keep blood fats healthier. Reduces size of plaque (atherosclerotic lesions). Lower blood pressure Reduce Blood clotting Increases nitric oxide Treats angina You’ll discover that allparts of pomegranates contain healthy plant compounds. The reddish kernel(referred to as a pomegranate “aril”), and The whitish seed corein the middle of the kernel where the distinct oiland fiber Pomegranate juicecontains all of these components, though it contains more available sugars then chewing the arils whole. Hard to conceive that pomegranates contain a one-of-a-kind omega fatty acid, omega-5 fatty acid. No other plant on earth contains this special compound. You will hear what omega-5 fatty acid does for the human body, including liver, brain, breast and prostate tissue. It is rather stunning to realize that numerous scientific articles conclude that pomegranates are type-2 diabetics best friend. Why? Because Punicicacid, the main ingredient of pomegranateomega-5 seed oil, is a “peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma” agonist. This means it signals insulin receptors. Yet, unlike synthetic insulin signalers, such as the diabetic family of drugs called thiazolidinedione’s, pomegranate oil has no nasty side effects. Pomegranates also fight insulin resistance.. You will hear a discussion on pomegranates as an “Adaptogenic Food Estrogen” and how consuming pomegranates regularly effects sex steroid hormones, such as estrogen. Pomegranates also fight cancer. The compounds in the arils fight tumors cells as well as inhibit cancer stem cells. It's cancer stem cells that cause most of cancer recurrences. Pomegranateseed oil blocks most (90% inhibition) of proliferation of ER+ laboratory breast cancer cells (called MCF-7cells, first harvested from a nun and then cultured continually in experimental cancer labs all over the world). Pomegranates cause 54% of cancer cell death in ER- breast cancer cells (MDA-MB-435). Pomegranates are strikingly kidney protective and reduce both renal and heart complications in kidney patients down the road. After this show you will know exactly what a pomegranate aril is, where to get it and how often to consume it. And you will realize the few pomegranate contraindications. This show is jammed packed with “food as medicine” facts! Also, don’t miss Berkson Blog on pomegranates coming soon, too, at drlindseyberkson.com

Episode 7: Nutritional Deficiencies and Dietary Supplements Public Interest in Nutritional Supplementation 50% of the U.S. adult population uses dietary supplements 1990-1997 400% growth in dietary supplement sales for humans Currently growing at 15% per year $37 billion annually 85% of regular supplement users believe that dietary supplements are good for health 82% of Americans would try herbs for terminal illness { http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~dms/fdsupp.html; Boothe DM. 2004 Vet Clin Small Anim 34:7-38 ; Blendon RJ. 2001 Arch Intern Med 161:805-810 } Similar interest in supplement use for pets 30% of pet owners have used or have considered using dietary supplements 90% of veterinarians sell some type of herbs or nutraceuticals $20-50 million in annual sales {Boothe DM. 2004 Vet Clin Small Anim 34:7-38} Important Questions Concerning Nutritional Supplements What are nutritional supplements? Terminology, Definitions, Contents Why do we need nutritional supplements? Evidence for nutritional deficiencies - When should we use nutritional supplements? How do we recognize/suspect the need? What nutritional supplements should we use? - What kind of nutritional supplement is best? How do we use nutritional supplements? Conventional Thinking About Nutritional Supplementation “The proper role of a supplement is to correct a diagnosed nutrient deficiency” {Small Animal Clinical Nutrition 4th Ed p. 116} However, diagnosis is difficult with current tools and difficult to recognize based on conventional definitions of deficiency “ The most common form of veterinary supplements is a wide variety of vitamin and vitamin-mineral combinations that are used by 10% of animal owners” {Small Animal Clinical Nutrition 4th Ed p. 116} Predominantly consist of isolated, or synthetic, vitamins “Routine use of vitamin mineral supplements is not needed when a dog or cat eats typical commercial pet food” “…dogs and cats consuming commercial dry rations were ingesting from two to five times the daily allowance of vitamins” {Small Animal Clinical Nutrition 4th Ed p. 116} They are already receiving potentially excessive amounts of isolated, or synthetic vitamins The conventional approach to nutritional supplementation is to provide more of the same isolated and synthetic nutrients that are already present in high amounts in the pet foods, expecting a better outcome It has been claimed that insanity is continuing to do the same thing, expecting a different result Confusion in Terminology: What Are Nutritional Supplements? Food: (according to section 201(f) of the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act) “a raw, cooked, or processed edible substance, ice, beverage, or ingredient used or intended for use or for sale in whole or in part for human consumption” “articles used for food or drink for man or other animals, chewing gum, and articles used for components of any such articles.” This includes “dietary supplements and dietary ingredients” { http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~dms/fsbtac13.html http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~dms/fc01-1.html1 http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~ear/ims-a-30.html} Drugs: “articles [food or non-food] intended for use in the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease in man or other animals” “ articles (other than food) intended to affect the structure or any function of the body of man or other animals” { http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~dms/fsbtac13.html http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~dms/fc01-1.html1 http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~ear/ims-a-30.html} “Medical Food” originally applied to humans For dietary management of a disease or health condition Under the direction of a physician Label must state that the product is to be used to manage a specific medical disorder or condition
