The Root Cause Medicine Podcast is a weekly one-on-one conversation with renowned medical experts, specialists, and pioneers who are influencing the way we look at your health and wellbeing. This week we're joined by Dr. Jill Carnahan, a Functional Medicine Expert and Founder and Medical Director of Flatiron Functional Medicine. In this episode of The Root Cause Medicine Podcast, Dr. Jill Carnahan shares her health journey through breast cancer, mold, toxicity, and trauma, while giving you guidance on where to start on your own journey. Key Takeaways: 1. Why does a disease start in the soil? Over the years, poor soil management, environmental changes, and chemicals are leading to the depletion of nutrients in the soil and human body. For example, the magnesium in an apple today is about one-fifth of what it was 50 or 100 years ago. We might be eating good organic produce, but it's depleted in nutrients that come from the soil. Those depletions and chemical applications like glyphosate pull out minerals that we need to live in a healthy manner. The corn and soy survive, but all the weeds and growths around them die because they're minerally depleted. Glyphosate kills minerals our microbiome can't survive without, as well as bifidobacteria and lactobacillus, allowing things like clostridia to cause various disorders. So we have this imbalance of microbiome based on the stuff that's applied to our soils, affects the gut, and the immune system gets the wrong signal and starts to attack our bodies. 2. Your liver can't do everything by itself - you have to help it. Our liver was designed to detox. We were created that way, and we have everything we need in our bodies to detoxify. However, the environmentally toxic load is increasing exponentially every year with chemicals that we have no idea how they work or how much toxicity we're taking on. And as this toxicity increases, we are losing our margin. If you think of it as a bucket analogy of how we detoxify, we all are born with a bucket that fills up with chemicals. As the toxic load increases, your bucket fills up, and your liver can do the job to a certain point. But when your bucket is full, the water level starts to spill over, your toxic load increases, and your liver gets behind it and can't keep up anymore. So your liver needs more nutrients like B vitamins, glutathione, and alpha-lipoic acid. 3. Breast cancer causes When it comes to breast cancer development, the hormone estradiol is often blamed but we know gut health, infections, inflammation, and toxicities from chemicals like pesticides and herbicides absolutely play a role. Toxic emotions, trauma, and stress can also trigger a bodily response and affect your hormones and metabolic health.

“I kind of fell into the world of Neurofeedback and immersed myself and just fell deeply in love with the changes that we can get in the brain through an electrical level,” says Sarah Murphy, a Neurofeedback Specialist. Five years ago, Sarah discovered the Neurofeedback world and found her passion. First starting her career in the addiction and recovery space, Sarah found her niche advancing people's peak performance from helping clients manage their stress to dealing with sleep disorders.   Through the evidence-based neurofeedback approach, Resilience Code Sarah helps high-level professionals and athletes maximize their work and athletic performances. Through retraining the mind to combat various mental illnesses and anxieties, anyone can move past the hang-ups hindering their success. Although we live in a society that encourages us to spread ourselves thin, Sarah understands the importance of reaching out to your community and asking for the help you need to meet your potential.   Tune into this week's episode of The Code for a fascinating conversation on harnessing the brain's power. Learn more about how Sarah fell into the Neurofeedback world, how Neurofeedback maximizes performance and why you should always ask for help when you need it.   Quotes • “I kind of fell into the world of Neurofeedback and immersed myself and just fell deeply in love with the changes that we can get in the brain through an electrical level.” (01:23 - 1:33) • “When the brain is constantly being hyper wound because it's not caught up on sleep, it goes into this fight or flight aspect. That's when we see some of the mental illnesses we see today: rumination, overthinking, depression, and PTSD.” (10:55 - 11:10) • “Our goal here at Resilience Code is to cater to that peak performance mindset to support, clarify, improve client's ability to fall asleep, and get effective sleep.” (19:28 - 19:40)  • “There's the victim mentality, and there's not. If you want to build a skyscraper, you have every opportunity to do that. If you want to rebuild a five-story building, you have every opportunity to do that. If you don't want to rebuild, you also have the opportunity. Neurofeedback allows people to see the skyscraper and reach for it.” (34:20 - 34:37)  • “I would say within the scope of Neurofeedback, I see a lot of people trying to do it on their own. In my opinion, our society caters to people suffocating themselves by trying to be it all to themselves. We were put on this earth to be a community. So, opening your arms and allowing people to see what's going on for you and allowing them to allow yourself to be vulnerable, but also allowing to yourself to ask for help.” (36:26 - 36:29)   Links   Connect with Sarah Murphy https://www.braincodecenters.com/ https://www.instagram.com/neuroninjasarah/ https://www.instagram.com/resiliencecode/ https://www.instagram.com/braincodecenters/ Connect with Physio Room:  Website | ​​https://physioroomco.com/  Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/physioroomco/ Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/physioroomco Andrew's Personal Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/dr.andrewfix/  Andrew's Personal Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/andrew.fix.9/   Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

The resilience code: How To Focus On The Process vs. The Outcome -Episode 22 w/ Steve Fisher Former professional Snowboarder is our guest this week on the podcast. Steve is sharing all about his journey from a guy on a store-bought plastic snowboard shaped board to shredding powder with some of the best in the world. He talks candidly about some of his own struggles in pursuit of the olympics.  He shares about his beginnings when snowboarding was just becoming a thing. Steve came up in a time when they didn't even fit snowboards for young feet and yet he carved out a path to competing with the tops of the top and got some major props from them. We learn with Steve why being in sports that only have their hey day at the Olympics can be challenging for funding and recognition. Also the biggest lesson of all how to not get so focused on one competition that you can only perform well outside of it. Really enjoyed the conversation with Steve and hope you will too.

Jessica Hansen (https://www.thejessicahansen.com/) is our special guest on today's episode of Traffic and Leads Podcast (https://trafficandleadspodcast.com). Jessica helps women get their businesses launched and automated by creating systems, and making sure that things are running in the very best way possible. This week, she’s here with us on the Traffic and Leads podcast to tell us all about the work she does, the software she likes, and how to make sure that your system is up to snuff. Let’s get started! IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: * What it is Jessica does! As stated, she’s the Systems Magician, and Jessica helps visionary women get their businesses launched and automated! She explains that she picked women because of how much she enjoys with them and that she works with mothers specifically because it’s a unique demographic that the bigger names in business don’t understand. There’s a lot of intricacies that you have to balance when you’re a mother with a business, and those are the people that Jessica likes to relate with and help because they’re not well served in the marketplace at the moment. * Jessica takes a moment to discuss Alexa flash briefings with me, along with her book, The Resilience Code. Her book, which just released, is all about creating systems in your life and in your business, so you can be more resilient, and so you can deal with the ups and downs that come your way. If you subscribe to her Alexa flash briefing—Biz Marketing Magic—you can get sneak peeks of the content in her book for free! * Jessica explains that the best systems are the ones that run automatically. This means that you don’t have to think about what you do day to day (since it just happens) and that sometimes, the computer can do it for you, so you don’t even have to be present for things to get done! * Jessica states that every business needs someone that will manage their tasks, and when someone calls her for help in their business, she has a very specific way to get started. If people don’t know where to start, Jessica routes them through an intensive 2-hour interview process to understand what they’re trying to do, and what they’re actually doing. When someone doesn’t know what they’re trying to do, they aren’t really accomplishing any of their goals—it’s important to get things aligned so they can create a system! * Jessica gives us a tip on creating systems, explaining that every time you do something, you should write down what you did. That way, you can go back to it later to see if how you were doing it gave you the best results. If it didn’t, you know what you did, and you can implement a change in your process as soon as possible! * Jessica shares with us the best tools for creating systems for digital marketers, stating first that she’s a big fan of doing things as free and cheap as possible. With that said, Jessica is a big fan of Google Suite, due to how much it can do for free! Additionally, Jessica has a paid membership for Zapier, which is a tool that people can use to create an integration between two applications that don’t have one already! She and I explain the process through an example of myself, and what she did for our business! * Lastly, Jessica explains how important it is for her to try new software! She’s always testing what she can to see if there’s a better, cheaper way to get something done. Efficiency means saving time and money, not just buying whatever is new to do it for you!

This week we have Panos Papadiamantis, co-founder of PNOE, a mobile breath analyzer used for cardio pulmonary metabolic testing.  That's a fancy way of saying the it's a mask that you strap over your mouth and nose to measure the gases you exhale and determine the mix of O2 and CO2 to determine how much fat and glycogen your body is burning.  Panos is going to help us understand how it works and what the advantage of a mobile device like PNOE is over testing in a lab. Today's show is supported by iKOR Labs.  iKOR is a clean, natural source of recovery enhancing CBD hemp extract that protects your body from the stresses of training, improves recovery from intense efforts and helps you maintain a positive mental state. The most bio-available CBD product on the market, iKOR is a highly protective anti-oxidant and effective anti-inflammatory.  WADA and USADA legal.  Used by world class professional athletes.  Save 20% by using the code "endurance" at checkout.

In endurance sports, he or she who can go fastest from point A to B wins, right?  The operative word in that sentence is 'endurance'.  If we're talking about an event of greater than 2 hours and you are truly racing, you are using a limited energy resource of carbohydrate, which is stored as glycogen in your muscles and liver. Just like you wouldn't start a road trip without knowing how much gas you have in the tank or what your gas mileage is, you want to know at what rate you burn glycogen.  Don't guess.  You will burn glycogen at an increasing rate at increasing intensities.  You want to know either when you are going to run out, or what amount of carbohydrate you need to consume to not run out. Panos Papadiamantis has some pretty impressive degrees and has a great accent.  Let's get into the interview and we'll chat about it a bit when we come back. Welcome back.  Our post interview discussion is sponsored by Halo Neuroscience.  The Halo Sport from Halo Neuroscience will help you learn the technique and form to get faster.  20 minutes of neural priming with the Halo Headset gives you an hour of neural plasticity to work and lock in the muscle movement that leads to strength, power and endurance.  If you are looking for a premium gift for your endurance athlete for the holidays, this is that item.  Use code MHE150 to save $150. PNOE: Bill and Khem, did you guys see people doing demos of PNOE in Kona?  It really turned heads in Kona.  I can only imagine how many heads would turn if someone saw me running down the street here in Highlands Ranch.   It will be interesting to see what coaches offer PNOE here.  We're going to have Bob Seebohar back on the show in a few weeks to talk about Birota Foods and we'll have to ask him if he's considering picking up a unit.  I can think of a number of places that would offer something like this - CU Sports Medicine and Resilience Code in Inverness.   We have some great content that we've put on the MHE website and in the show notes.  Navigate to MHE>Content>Resources and scroll to Metabolic Testing.  We'll have a sample report as well as a number of video resources for PNOE.  You will want to check out the report for sure as it goes into some of the concepts that we have discussed with Dr. Inigo San Milan, Olympian Jim Galanes and Bob Seebohar.  Specifically what muscle fiber types are used in various degrees of intensity, how that translates into breath rate and fuel sources, and nutrition recommendations to improve metabolic efficiency and promote fat as a substrate source.   Bob Seebohar and eNRG Metabolic test; before and after data comparison; information on carbohydrate calorie in common products Key dates: test 1 June 6; test 2 July 26 (7 weeks) Metabolic exchange rate - the rate (running pace in this case) at which the runner starts burning more carbohydrate than fat Test 1 - 9:23 pace & HR of 151 Test 2 - 8:27 pace & HR of 158 Percent Carb/Fat Test 1 - 10:20 48/52; 9:50 49/51; 9:23 50/50 Test 2 - 10:20 37/63; 9:50 40/60; 9:23 41/59 Carb Calories per Hour Test 1 - 9:23 pace = 480; 8:34 pace = 591 Test 2 - 9:23 pace = 352; 8:34 pace = 455 Note that this was done over a 7 week period.

Chris Hetherington Resilience Code CEO,  Resilience Code is an amazing place. It is technically a data-driven, evidence-based, multi-specialty medical performance center. We serve anybody really, whether you’re an athlete, where you’re a non-athlete, whether you’re a corporate athlete, an executive, a housewife, chronically ill patient, a surgery patient. We have this multidisciplinary integrated approach. We have all these amazing specialty providers under one roof. The goal of what we’re trying to do as a company is spread health literacy.  Arming people with the knowledge of how their body works and their mind works to make better decisions going forward and reliably guide their wellness.  So whether you’re looking to…you know, performer seekers, whether you’re looking to perform better at work, at life, at sport, we’re the place for you to come. We’ve developed this one-stop shop for all of your medical and performance needs. It’s for people that are looking for subtle changes, people that are looking for very comprehensive programs. We’ll re-manage your meds, your supplements, your fitness etc., but really for everybody. Our goal is to spread health literacy one person at a time, to create this dynamic cultural shift. I’ve been an athlete my whole life. I grew up in Connecticut. I was lucky enough to be a good, natural athlete. I played football, hockey, baseball, golf. My dad and I went to golf driving range as a kid, so I grew up a golfer. But I went to Yale, played football and baseball. I gave up hockey. Then I was fortunate enough to play in the NFL for 11 years for 5 different teams.  I had a wonderful experience and was lucky to realize from guys that I respected, older guys, experienced pros that you have to take care of your body. Later on, in my career, I was very focused on recovery and going off campus to get IVs and taking supplements. I was the crazy guy carrying around this tackle box of supplements to the facility and getting bodywork. There’s no better place than Resilience Code to come here and learn from all these amazing people, starting with Dr. Chad Prusmack, who’s the visionary here and the founder of Resilience Code. One of the most intelligent guys I’ve met but one of the most dynamic charismatic guys and a unique guy. The corporate athlete. “I’m going to be in the arena for another 10 or 20 years.  I know I need to do something so maybe these guys can help get me pointed.”  What should he or she expect? The problem is, people only get tested when they’re sick, go to the doctor when they’re sick and tested when they have issues. We’re trying to prevent issues before they happen. The process is, we want to learn about the client, we want to know the client, “What are your goals? What’s your lifestyle? Do you work out? Do you not work out? Do you follow a strict diet? Do you not? Do you take supplements? Are you open to taking supplements?” So everything is 100% completely customized to the client and what their goals are. Typical time allocation once he or she walks through the door here?  Our most comprehensive program, we call it iCODE. That’s our executive health and wellness program. The way that works is they come in for this two-and-a-half-day testing experience. There’s a lot of information we collect before you come here, obviously, and then you come here, we do this testing experience. That’s the biomarker test, your KinetiCode or moving-based testing and your MindCode testing. From there, we collect the data. All of our amazing specialists collaborate and come up with an intervention a plan or recommendation, and then it’s an ongoing, we’re tracking your data, we’re making constant interventions. We’re this data-driven, evidence-based facility. The thing that separates us, and...

Today’s episode features sport scientist Max Schmarzo.  Max is the director of sport science at Resilience Code and the chief science officer at Exsurgo Technologies.  Many of you may know him by his Instagram handle @strong_by_science where Max posts a variety of practical and scientific information that has garnered a large following. Max is one of the smartest young coaches I know, and I am constantly blown away by the breadth and detail of his knowledge.  If you want to get into the nuts and bolts of human performance, Max is a go-to guy to talk to. Not only is Max well versed in many facets of strength and conditioning, but he also has education as an athletic trainer, and has deep knowledge of holistic markers of human performance in fields such as functional medicine. Today our theme is the holistic adaptation of the body to stress.  When it comes to getting results, having a good grasp on things that can make or break one’s strength and performance gains, or predispose one to injury can create a broader vision of if one’s strength program is actually effective, or if lifestyle, nutrition and general stress needs to be considered.   On today’s show, Max and I are chatting about these adaptive processes, the different effects of recovery modalities, nutrition and it’s impact on training decisions, the adaptation of tendons, inflammation and its role in training, and more.  Today’s episode is brought to you by SimpliFaster, supplier of high-end athletic development tools, such as the Freelap timing system, kBox, Sprint 1080, and more.   Key Points: How the body adapts to stress on a muscular and cellular level How the gut impacts an athletes response to training How imprecise the general term “recovery” is, and how different modalities can have very different responses How caloric deficit and nutrition can impact the type of “recovery day” an athlete should perform The “anti-virus” effect of general strength work to mitigate a large quantity of specific strength training Concepts for training tendons, and inherent differences versus training muscles Quotes: “People call desensitization to epinephrine central nervous system fatigue” “If I don’t understand my athlete’s adaptive capacity…. how could I blame myself (as a coach creating a program), if I’m not turning over other things to look at” “If an individual is susceptible to eating (bad carbs) sometimes it’s best to remove all carbs, then reintroduce good carbs to build a good base” “You don’t get to wreck your muscles and have your blood pressure not change” “If I sit in cryotherapy, I have a blunting in the inflammatory response… so I could be blunting the muscle adaptations that may occur” “Performance and longevity do not go hand in hand” “When you are doing something specific, there is only so much room to do something specific” “A tendon doesn’t look like or adapt like a muscle” About Max Schmarzo Max Schmarzo is the Director of Sport Science at Resilience Code, in Englewood, Colorado.

On this episode the 3 of us discuss: Matt and Max's background and influences  We get into an indepth discussion around the guys book - Isometrics for Performance I ask the guys - how much of an influence was Frans Bosch's work was on their book I ask the guys to layout the different types of isometrics described in the book I ask the guys about how isometrics can be used to improve local metabolite buffering within a target muscle  I ask the guys about how they use isometrics with beginners The guys talk about how isometrics are a powerful means to increase tendon robutness I ask the guys - what do they think is the mechanism behind the performance benefits of long-duration isometrics? I ask the guys to disccuss why an increase in catecholamine release from isometrics can be beneficial? I ask the guys - how do they measure the actual work being done with isometric actions? I ask the guys about the structural, neural, and metabolic adaptations from isometrics Here the guys talk about some really interesting adaptation that isometrics can have on hypertrophy and tendon properties (i.e. tendon stiffness) We get into an indepth discussion on isometrics and tendon adaptations Here the guys talk about how isometrics seem to impact more of the tendon architecture vs tendon CSA (hypertrophy) The guys also talk about about how isometrics can improve a tendons the rate of force moreso then its magnitude  I ask the guys about isometrics beneficial use when dealing with pain and in early rehabilitation  I ask the guys about using isometrics to re-educate the body to express maximal-voluntary-contractions (MVC) The guys talk further about about how isometrics can improve the rate of force transmission (RFT) of tendon's moreso than the magnitude of force/ rate of force development (RFD) We speak about how you could possibly use jump profling to determine if you should do more rate or magnitude contraction work on a given day The guys talk about their use of APRE when prescribing the use isometrics We speak about how elite athletes are superior at relaxing their muscles as well aa contracting them - Max claims he found research in translated Russian sport science book to support this claim I ask the guys who have been their biggest influences  I ask the guys to give their life advice to the listeners I ask the guys, if they could invite 5 people to dinner, dead or alive, who would they invite and why?   This was an outstanding episode and I hope you all enjoy it as much as we did!
