In today's episode, we're talking about electrolytes. When I say electrolytes, I am mainly referring to sodium, potassium, magnesium and calcium.

The reason we care about electrolytes is because they are vital for maintaining fluid balance, transmitting nerve signals, contracting muscles (including your heart muscle and the smooth muscles like your blood vessels and intestines), and electrolytes are vital for maintaining acid-base balance in the body.

Too much acid or too much base and we die.

Electrolytes can be beneficial in the following areas:

Intense exercise

Processed foods

Chronic illness

Body composition

Find out if you could benefit from electrolytes.

In today's episode, we are discussing cooking oils, specifically palm oil and macadamia nut oil. Are they good? Are they bad?

Palm oil is known for its high smoke point, which means you use it to cook at high temperatures without the oil breaking down and forming free radicals, degrading its nutritional value.

Like palm oil, macadamia nut oil has a high smoke point, making it super versatile in the kitchen for baking and high heat applications. Find out the benefits and risks of these two oils.

In today's episode, we're talking about health margin. I talk to friends, family, and patients on a regular basis who tell me things like “oh I just took ibuprofen or I took a Tylenol and feel fine now.”

When the body is producing pain and swelling signals, whether that is your knee, stomach, sinuses, head, there is a purpose, there is a reason for these symptoms.

When you pop a pill, the issue generating the symptoms did not go away. The capacity to generate the symptoms was simply downgraded or put on hold by the drug.

In today's episode, I'm talking about the interplay between low iron and hypothyroidism. They share similar symptoms from weakness to fatigue to feeling cold all of the time.

For example, Iron deficiency can lead to reduced activity of the deiodinase enzyme which affects the conversion of T4 to T3 in the cells. Iron is also a key component of TPO which synthesizes thyroid hormones.

In today's episode we're talking about toxicity via glyphosate.

Micronutrient imbalances coupled with chronic toxic exposure lead to hormone imbalance, autoimmune disease, leaky gut barrier, and chronic infections.

This past month a study came out looking at gluten-free food products and the levels of different pesticides and minerals present in them. People often rage at gluten, but the reality is gluten just happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time.

The true culprit in this epidemic of gluten sensitivity and celiac disease is actually the pesticide glyphosate.

In today's episode we're talking about elevated MCV (mean corpuscular volume) and why it can cause fatigue. MCV is an indication of impaired oxygen delivery.

This can result in symptoms of fatigue, weakness, shortness of breath and decreased life performance. When red blood cells are small it often associated with low iron but when they are big nutritionally it is usually related to low B12, folate, thiamine, and B6. Recognize if oxygen delivery is impaired then it is really challenging for healing to occur.

The next time you get a CBC check your MCV level. The goal is to have it around 88-90. We don’t want it too low either as that also impairs oxygen delivery.
