It's time to simplify, take control, and make wellness work for you—without the stress!The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, who discusses wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store. IN THIS EPISODE: (02:44) Don't allow your health plan to stress you; focus on what works for your body and your life(06:19) Limit how many content creators you follow and the truth about protein and fiber(10:31) Clean, lean protein, veggies and fruit, and eating at certain times of the day(15:27) Fasting, the difference between unprocessed and processed foods, and movement(23:40) Listen to your body, stress, sleep and supplements(31:15) Social connection and community are key for longevity(33:08) Sleep is the ultimate biohack for a healthy body(37:02) The quality of a supplement mattersKEY TAKEAWAYS:If your health plan feels overwhelming, it might do more harm than good. Simplify your wellness by focusing on what works for you and limiting the experts you follow to avoid confusion and decision fatigue.Our bodies are wired to respond to stress as a survival mechanism, but modern-day stressors—like emails and phone notifications—trigger the same physiological response as life-threatening situations. This prolonged fight-or-flight state shuts down essential functions like digestion, immune response, and detoxification, contributing to long-term health issues.Simple actions like deep breathing before meals, movement, quality nutrition, fresh air, and social connection can help regulate stress and improve overall well-being. Prioritizing sleep and establishing consistent routines further support mental and physical health.Supplements can be a powerful tool to add on, but they cannot take the place of other healthy lifestyle choices.QUOTES: (07:48) “No expert knows your body better than you do.

Today we have JP Errico, a scientist and inventor whose work focuses on neuroimmunology and the many ways it impacts cellular metabolism, inflammation, mental health and how we age. He recently joined IHMC as a Senior Research Scientist. JP is particularly known for his research on vagus-nerve stimulation and is the author of the book, The Vagus-Immune Connection: Harness Your Vagus Nerve to Manage Stress, Prevent Immune Dysregulation, and Avoid Chronic Disease. He also is the co-host of the podcast, The Health Upgrade. JP has more than 250 patents and is the founder of ElectroCore, a company that specializes in neuromodulation and noninvasive vagus-nerve stimulation. He has an undergraduate degree in aeronautical engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and worked at Lincoln Laboratories. JP also holds graduate degrees in both law and mechanical/materials engineering from Duke University. Show notes: [00:03:08] Tim opens our interview mentioning that as a child JP was focused on both sports and academics. [00:04:50] Tim talks about how hard it is to find quality math and science education today similar to what JP experienced at his high school. [00:05:16] Tim asks JP what it was that led him to pursue an undergraduate degree at MIT. [00:05:53] Tim asks if it was always JP's plan to go into aeronautical engineering. [00:07:22] Tim mentions that as a kid, JP would scour bookstores and libraries for textbooks on physics and quantum mechanics and asks JP if there were any books that particularly inspired him. [00:10:12] Ken mentions that after MIT, JP went to Duke University where he pursued mechanical engineering and also went to law school. Given this workload, Ken asks if JP ever had any free time while studying at Duke. [00:13:26] Tim mentions that while JP was in law school, he got a job at a patent firm. After obtaining his law degree, JP's uncle called and offered JP an opportunity. [00:17:42] Tim explains that JP's career has focused on neuroimmunology, or the study of how the nervous system and immune system interact. Neuroimmunology affects a wide range of health factors including inflammation, mental health and aging. Tim also explains that JP has recently authored a book on neuroimmunology titled “The Vagus Immune Connection: Harness Your Vagus Nerve to Manage Stress, Prevent Immune Dysregulation and Avoid Chronic Disease.” Tim asks JP to touch on the key features of neuroimmunology that people should be aware of. [00:21:59] Tim asks JP to touch on the epigenetic factors regarding neuroimmunology. [00:25:01] Since JP brought up Dr. Kevin Tracey's work, Ken mentions that Kevin was recently interviewed on STEM-Talk episode 172 and encourages listeners to listen to that episode for more context on the vagus nerve and neuroimmunology. [00:25:48] JP talks about how he stumbled upon the idea of how stimulating a nerve may have the same clinical benefit that sometimes occurs as a result of cutting a nerve. [00:28:16] Tim talks about the unintended consequences he observed as surgeon when he cut a patient's vagus nerve. [00:30:50] Ken mentions that another area where JP has had impact with respect to stimulating the vagus nerve is the treatment of asthma and asks JP to talk about his findings in this area. [00:40:10] Tim notes that after JP knew that non-invasive approaches to vagus-nerve stimulation were possible, he went on to optimize a delivery device. These efforts resulted in a device called gamaCore. Tim asks JP to talk about this device and how it works. [00:43:27] Tim asks JP to talk about what it feels like for patients to have their vagus nerve stimulated. [00:44:50] Ken asks if JP thinks that his and others' work in vagus-nerve stimulation inspired the development of similar devices for orthopedic pain, where the device is implanted near the nerve on the knee or other area experiencing pain.

Key factors for better sleep include darkness, temperature, and minimizing disturbances. Stress is a major factor affecting sleep quality and melatonin production. The vagus nerve plays a crucial role in connecting the brain to internal organs. HRV (Heart Rate Variability) is a key metric for measuring stress resilience. Biohacking allows for personal experimentation to find what works best for individual health. Mental health is increasingly important in managing stress and overall well-being. Using devices like Pulsetto can help activate the vagus nerve for relaxation. Athletes can benefit from vagus nerve stimulation for recovery and performance. Small changes in sleep habits can lead to significant improvements over time. Watch on YouTube https://youtu.be/YGxZvO67bLM Episode transcript Cheryl McColgan (00:01.07)Hi everyone. Welcome to the Heal Nourish Grow podcast. Today I'm joined by Vitalius and I got the first name going pretty good. I'm not even going to attempt the last name, so I'll let him share that. And of course you will have heard it in the bio here prior to the recording. But welcome to the show today. We're going to talk about all things kind of Vegas nerve, what that even is, why it's relevant to you as a person out there listening to this. And Vitalius has a big interest in sleep and kind of a past with some things where he was super into biohacking. this is really pretty interesting. So, Vitalius, all that being said, we start by you just sharing a little bit about yourself and your background in the biohacking? And I would love to really chat about that sleep experiment you did, because that was quite impressive what you did with that. Vitalijus (00:45.603)Yeah, so before I created Pulsetto, am one of the co-founders of this company. I was working in corporate world and basically in the sleep industry. I was working in different countries, in different locations and I was responsible for sleep products. So naturally, sleep topic was always somewhere near, you know, but you know, one day I decided to go deeper to this topic. I had some issues with sleep also. So it was like, I was working in sleep industry, but at the same time I was sleeping bad, you know, I was working like a crazy for 16 hours and etc. And then when I was 29, I got panic attacks and Xanax and it was terrible experience. Cheryl McColgan (01:10.178)Yeah. Vitalijus (01:34.605)that I remember that I said, okay, I need to change something. And the starting point was sleep, yeah, because I was near this field and topic and etc. So what I did basically at that moment, I just took around 70 factors, which has some kind of scientific publications, know, and etc. 70 things. I will explain what those things mean. And I took those things I just listed. And then, you know, I started this kind of 100 night experiment, which means that I took one thing from those 70 lists. Yeah. And then three evenings in a row, I consume this thing. And I was imagining my aura at that moment, was like, what users It was not like a scientific study,
In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Arianne Missimer, a leading expert in integrative health, to explore the profound connection between the lymphatic system and the vagus nerve. Often addressed as separate entities, these twosystems work in harmony to support detoxification, immune function, and stress management. Together, we'll uncover the science behind chronic inflammation, poor sleep, and stress-related conditions stemming from stagnation in thesesystems—and provide actionable tips to help you restore balance, de-stress, and reclaim your health.
In this episode, we explore a potential paradigm shift in the treatment of Rheumatoid Arthritis. For years, pharmacologic interventions have been the cornerstone of management, but now a groundbreaking approach is emerging. John Tesser, principal investigator in a pioneering study, discusses the use of an implantable device that stimulates the vagus nerve. By tapping into the body's nervous system to reduce inflammation, this novel approach offers a promising alternative to traditional drug treatments. Tune in to learn how this innovative technology could reshape the future of Rheumatoid Arthritis care.
In this enlightening episode of the Health Upgrade podcast, we dive deep into the fascinating world of neuroanatomy and brain signaling. We kick off with a comprehensive explanation of neurons, neurotransmitters, and the intricate dance between excitation and inhibition in the brain. We explore how inflammation impacts brain function, leading to an upsurge in glutamate and a decrease in GABA, potentially triggering conditions like migraines and chronic pain.During our conversation we share the interconnectedness of neurotransmitters, notably focusing on the powerful roles of glutamate and GABA. We discuss how inflammation disrupts the balance, leading to a hyperexcitable state in the brain. But it's not all gloom; we shed light on actionable strategies to manage inflammation, emphasizing the importance of vagus nerve stimulation, like Truvega, exercise, and dietary changes.

Today we're exploring a powerful technique to reduce anxiety and increase stress tolerance, vagus nerve stimulation. The vagus nerve acts as a vital communication pathway between your brain and body, linking the gut to the brain and reaching every major organ along the way. When your vagus nerve is functioning well, it has a high "vagal tone." Signs of low vagal tone include trouble calming down, shallow breathing, difficulty swallowing, a hoarse voice, a weak gag reflex, and digestive problems. Discover simple, effective ways to improve vagal tone and enhance your body's ability to handle stress.

What if the key to treating chronic diseases like rheumatoid arthritis wasn't drugs but a tiny electrical device? That's the promise of vagus nerve stimulation (VNS), a groundbreaking therapy that holds the potential to transform how we approach conditions like asthma, heart disease, diabetes, obesity, and even depression and other mental health issues. On this 20-Minute Health Talk, we explore the fascinating science and remarkable potential of VNS with two leading experts: Kevin Tracey, MD, president & CEO of the Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research and the founder of bioelectronic medicine; and Murthy Simhambhatla, PhD, president & CEO of SetPoint Medical, a company pioneering cutting-edge VNS devices. Together, they discuss the history of VNS, its applications today and the potential to address a wide range of other inflammatory conditions, from multiple sclerosis to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). They also dive into the early results of a SetPoint-led study using VNS to treat rheumatoid arthritis, which Dr. Tracey believes could be the tipping point in this over 30-year odyssey.

Join Kim Pittis and Dr. Carol as they explore the fascinating world of Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM) therapy with detailed case studies and real-life miracles. This episode covers the complexities of treating long COVID, the interplay between different body systems, and the importance of addressing the root causes of ailments. We dive into intriguing patient stories, such as Christy Hughes' incredible recovery from multiple severe COVID infections and small fiber neuropathy. Learn about the critical role of the vagus nerve, the importance of stable states, and innovative treatment protocols that blend multiple modalities for comprehensive healing. Frequency Specific Microcurrent: Miracles in Healing and Dynamic Protocols In this episode, hosts delve into the fascinating world of Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM), sharing breakthrough stories of recovery and healing. They discuss climatic quirks in Northern California and Portland, the extraordinary improvements in a patient post-COVID, and the holistic approach of FSM in treating diverse conditions. From tendon repair to vestibular injuries, they cover how FSM addresses underlying causes rather than symptoms. The episode also highlights upcoming symposiums and conferences, and the importance of understanding the integration of different medical systems for effective treatment. Tune in for insights, case studies, and the latest FSM protocols to revolutionize your approach to healing. 00:17 Seasonal Changes and Personal Anecdotes 01:11 Christy Hughes' Miraculous Recovery 04:16 Understanding COVID's Impact on the Body 06:07 Upcoming Symposium and Presentations 07:32 FSM Core Training and Diverse Participants 08:56 Case Study: Treating Dural Adhesions 11:58 Integrating Multiple Healing Systems 17:44 Addressing Vestibular Injuries 22:41 FSM Protocols for Long COVID 28:08 Advanced Dura Treatments and Research 30:04 Cranial Sacral Therapy and FSM 31:12 Advanced Techniques and Word Formation 32:46 Understanding Muscle and Tendon Mechanics 34:11 Aging, Balance, and Fast Twitch Muscles 35:53 Small Fiber Neuropathy and Vagus Nerve Stimulation 41:24 Treating Vomiting in Children 47:33 Increased Pain with FSM Protocols 51:40 Case Reports and Frequency Therapy History As autumn settles in Northern California, the contrast between chilly mornings and warm afternoons epitomizes the transitional phase between seasons. It's not only nature that finds itself in a transition—we do too. Amidst the complex interplay of life's various aspects, frequency-specific microcurrent (FSM) offers a method to harmonize our body's physiological systems, especially during critical recovery periods. The Journey of Healing with FSM Recent sessions have unveiled remarkable transformations in individuals battling long-term effects post-COVID vaccination. For instance, Christy Hughes's journey is a testament to the healing potential of FSM. Overburdened by lingering symptoms due to COVID, she found relief after implementing customized FSM protocols focusing on vascular support. Her story speaks volumes about the intricacies and potential of FSM in aiding recovery from seemingly insurmountable health challenges. Unveiling the Science Behind FSM The physiological ramifications of COVID are profound, affecting everything from blood vessel linings to cellular signaling. It's hypothesized that the persistent issues individuals face could stem from disruptions in blood flow regulation—a process deeply tied to our body's cellular communication network. By using FSM to recalibrate these signals, practitioners have witnessed significant improvements in patient outcomes, offering new hope amid seemingly dire circumstances. Advanced Protocols for Comprehensive Care At its core, FSM embodies a holistic approach, addressing physical, neurological, acupuncture, and energetic systems concurrently. This multi-layered treatment is reshaping how practitioners like acupuncturists, MDs, and even massage therapists approach care. With a comprehensive protocol in place—from treating fascial adhesions using FSM to balancing energy centers—practitioners are equipped to deliver expansive, integrative treatments within a condensed timeframe. Integrating FSM Across Disciplines The beauty of FSM lies in its adaptability across various medical disciplines, inviting practitioners to view symptoms through a broader lens. Whether it's enhancing vagal tone in kids encountering sleep disturbances or helping patients redefine their movement post-trauma, FSM paves the way for cohesive, multi-system rehabilitation. This integrative approach not only addresses problems but delves into the etiological roots, allowing for lasting healing. Building Bridges Through Understanding Essential to this process is building a deep understanding of each patient's unique history, integrating aspects often overlooked. As practitioners, unraveling these stories helps to construct a narrative that aligns with therapeutic interventions. This reconstructive approach is becoming central to FSM practices, avidly pursuing not just symptom mitigation but unwavering health optimization. Embracing Comprehensive Healing In an era rife with complex health dynamics, FSM stands out as a beacon of hope for many. Its adaptability and comprehensive nature underscore its capability to harmonize health at both a micro and macro level. As we progress, learning to incorporate such advanced yet holistic treatment methods could redefine the landscape of healing, fostering greater well-being for all who embark on this transformative journey.
