Enjoyed participating in this Nutrition Business Today podcast hosted by Thomas Aarts. This was a great conversation about glutathione with Nayan Patel PharmD. Looking forward to spreading the word together about this crucial supplement and creating the best available forms to deliver to humans and animals in need globally.
My favorite peptide treatments for Anxiety, Depression, PTSD, Cognitive Decline and…..Neuroinflammation (think Long Covid). This is part 1! I hope you find it helpful!
It is called immuno-rejuvenation and it is the counterpart to immuno-senescence.
This quote from his company’s website Big Bold Health simplifies the message that we can all appreciate and share with patients, colleagues, friends and family:
“You were born for resilience, with an immune system designed to get you there.”
Practicing medicine and particularly integrative medicine with this concept in mind and heart shifts the approach to one more focused on encouraging resilience and truly working with the body and its innate intelligence, to promote long term healing.
There is a lot of talk these days about the benefits of therapeutic peptides. Here is a short video that helps explain what they are and how they may benefit you. I am seeing great results in my practice and have incorporated this therapy into many of our treatment plans.
Here’s to experiencing the very best version of yourself,
An interesting article was published this week in Psychology Today that talks about how inflammation in the body not only causes depression but also alters our mood and even decision making.
About 15 years ago I began to study this link. I even purchased the domain address inflamedbrain.com because I felt that one day this information would become mainstream.
And here we are!
The approach I take to treating patients often involves recommendations that lower inflammation in the body.
The fields of psychology and even sociology will likely evolve to incorporate this new information about how to help people lead more focused and clear lives.
A new study was published that highlights the link between inflammation in the body and mental illness. This is an area that I have been focusing on clinically and in training to physicians and pharmacists for the past twelve years, referring to the condition as “Sickness Syndrome.” There is a very clear link between inflammation in the body and mental illness. Addressing inflammation with a clear plan alleviates many of the symptoms associated with it including depression, anxiety and OCD. For long lasting results, we have to treat the cause of these symptoms rather then masking them. It doesn’t mean psychiatric medications are not helpful, it means we need to broaden the treatment to address one of the underlying causes-inflammation. I have been researching and working with several forms of glutathione in clinical practice as a simple and effective treatment for “neuroinflammation.” This is an exciting time in medicine, with wonderful discoveries and connections being made that will help children and adults to experience more freedom and to think more clearly.
