Benefits of Turmeric, Part 2

August 19, 2023

Can Turmeric really help with diabetes? The answer looks like... Yes! Now, this is really exciting because so many people have diabetes. When patients come into my office, the number 1 medication they are on is for blood pressure. The number 2 is kind of tied between diabetes and cholesterol. So, if there is something else we can do to help with diabetes, I want to know about it. There is a study of 240 adults, and they found that taking curcumin, which is the active ingredient in Turmeric, over nine months, lowered the odds of developing diabetes in pre-diabetic subjects. If you have family risk, if your family has a history of diabetes, if you don't have a good diet, you want to do everything you can to reduce the odds or your getting diabetes. So you may want to add Turmeric to your diet. There are not any down sides to taking Turmeric, and there are many benefits. Just to be clear it won't happen overnight. This study took nine months, but the results were really positive. That's great news for everyone!

Benefits of Turmeric, Part 1

August 18, 2023

Can Turmeric really help with depression? Surprisingly, there is research out now that shows the compounds in Turmeric that actually has shown to help people with depression. One of those compounds is curcumin. Now, some of the studies have been a little mixed, but the cool part of this, is that Turmeric is pretty benign.... so if you take it, there really isn't a down side to taking it. I has a lot of health benefits. But this study that I found regarding Turmeric and depression got me really excited. So many people suffer from depression and don't know what to do about it. Turmeric can be part of an overall protocol. I wouldn't recommend using Turmeric as your only treatment, but when it comes to depression, you want to get your nervous system and your digestive system working. A fully functioning digestive system is probably the main thing that is missing, when it comes to depression. I've seen this countless times in my practice. Your body has to be able to break down your food, to absorb the nutrients, to fuel the neurotransmitters in your brain, so your brain is healthy and functions well. If your digestive system isn't working as it should, it can lead to things like depression.

Benefits of Glutathione #healthtips #nutritioncoach #glutathione #liverhealth

August 16, 2023

Glutathione.... what the heck is that? Glutathione is an antioxidant, and it's composed of 3 amino acids: cysteine, glycine, and glutamic acid. Glutathione is a component of the body that is really important for many things. One of the things it does is help the liver work more efficiently. It's one of the most powerful antioxidants we have. What does an antioxidant do? So, there are things called free radicals. Free radicals attack your body and eat away at your cells. Antioxidants reduce the damage that the free radicals do.... many times antioxidants can even shut down the free radicals completely. If you can boost your glutathione levels, you improve your oxidative stress and improve your mitochondrial function, which produces energy in the body. Your body can make glutathione by eating things like cruciferous vegetables, such as broccoli and Brussels sprouts. But I take a glutathione supplement every day, too, because I want to make sure that my liver is as healthy as possible.

The Worst Foods For Your Brain, Part 5

August 11, 2023

The Worst Foods For Your Brain, Part 5 Hey folks, Dr. Joe here. I remember when I was a kid, my mother would say, "Eat fish, it's good for your brain." Well, I understand why she said that, and why people believe that, because fish are high in omega 3 fatty acids. However, fish can also have a lot of mercury in their fat. For example, swordfish, ahi tuna, big, fat fish. The fatter or bigger the fish, the more likely they are to have mercury in their fat. So if you're taking fish oils that have not been purified of the mercury, you're getting mercury in your system and in your brain. The mercury is terrible for your brain and far outweighs any benefit you might get from the fish. So if you're going to take omega 3 fatty acid, which you absolutely should, you would be much better off taking algae oil. Algae oil is the purest form of Omega 3 Fatty acids, and will give your brain the nutrients it needs, without the harmful mercury.

The Worst Foods For Your Brain, Part 4

August 11, 2023

Hey, it's Dr. Joe, and I want to help you take care of your brain. I think we'd all agree that the brain is a very important part of our body. Taking care of your brain is super important, and you might be surprised at some of the foods that you love that actually are not healthy for your brain. For example, MEAT. Meats are high in saturated fat. When saturated fat gets into your body, it actually clumps your red blood cells together and prevents them from properly carrying oxygen through the body. So, if the red blood cells are clumped together, they can't carry the oxygen and then release the oxygen like they are supposed to. There's actually something called "The Mind Diet". It is a research-based eating program that is aimed at keeping your mind sharp and your memory working best. They say, too, that you want to stay away from the red meat. Now, don't worry about protein. I get asked all the time, regarding a plant-based diet, as to where to get your protein. The body only needs about 8 - 10% of it's total caloric intake as protein. If you're eating a good plant-based diet of fruits, vegetables, nuts, and seeds, you're probably getting 3, 4, 5, even 6 times as much protein as you need. Eating a lot of meats gives you way more protein than you need, and too much protein can be bad for your liver and for your kidneys. So I recommend staying away from the meat if you can.

The Worst Foods For Your Brain. Part 2

August 10, 2023

Hey, Dr. Joe here... we're talking about the worst foods for your brain. You certainly want to take care of your brain, and I want to help you. Something that you want to avoid is Artificial Sweeteners. As if regular sodas weren't bad enough for you, I assure you that choosing a diet soda or drink with artificial sweetener is an even worse choice. Research shows that people who sip even one diet soda per day, are nearly 3 times more likely to have a stroke or develop dementia. Let that sink in.... 3 times more likely. Scientists believe it is the artificial sweetener that is causing this. One of the things that can happen if you're using an artificial sweetener, say, like aspartame, is this: Aspartame breaks down into 3 components: aspartic acid, phenylalanine, and methyl esters. High levels of aspartic acid in a concentrated form, actually cause the brain to fire faster than it's supposed to. So, too much artificial sweetener can be harmful for the brain. Artificial Sweetener is one of my 7 Deadly Sins of Nutrition, and I recommend for many reasons that you avoid it all together. Dr. Joe Esposito, BS DC. DABCO. DAAPM.

The Worst Foods For Your Brain, Part 1.

August 10, 2023

Hey, Dr. Joe here. Everyone wants to have a healthy brain, that goes without saying. You may not know the things you can to to keep your brain healthy, and I want to show you. The first thing I want to talk to you about is alcohol. Now, a single glass of wine or beer probably isn't going to mess up your brain, BUT, it does affect the communication in your brain. And over time, this becomes cumulative. So the more you drink, the more difficult it is for your brain to process new information and to remember things. Alcohol can make you feel confused and fuzzy.... but alcohol can also lower your testosterone levels. It's ironic that sometimes you may think that you're going to have a drink and you'll be all charming and sexy. But the reality is that, even though you may feel playful and fun, you actually won't function better, because of the drop in testosterone levels in your body. So, alcohol is bad for your brain function short term as well as long term, and it also affects your hormone levels. If you are going to drink, here's the deal: For every alcoholic drink you have, drink 3 glasses of water. This will help to neutralize some of that damage.

Worst Foods For Your Brain, Part 3

August 9, 2023

I want to help you take care of your health in all areas. Today, I want to share with you some tips on how to take care of your brain. Fried foods. I know you don't want to hear this, because everybody loves fried foods. But the reality is that people who eat a lot of fried foods, especially fried processed foods, fare worse on tests that measure their brain skills. This doesn't mean you're not smart or intelligent. It just means that your brain may be experiencing a deficiency of oxygen because of inflammation in the blood vessels........ because of the fried foods. Inflammation in the blood vessels can interfere with the blood supply to the brain. Your brain needs a lot energy, a lot of good blood, and it needs a lot of oxygen. So try to stay away from a lot of fried foods for your brain health, but also for other areas of your health. Fried foods have a lot of toxic chemicals in them, such as acrylamide. Acrylamide is a known carcinogen, and can even increase your risk of dementia short term and long term. I hope you'll stay away from fried foods for good!
