    The Power of CB2: How Beta-Caryophyllene May Support Inflammation, Pain & Healthy Aging

    On this episode of Maximum Medicine Radio, Dr. Sharon Martin welcomes naturopathic physician, author, researcher, and Cannanda founder Dr. Lee Know for a fascinating conversation about the endocannabinoid system, CB2 receptors, and the potential health benefits of beta-caryophyllene. Dr. Know shares how his lifelong interest in natural medicine led him into naturopathic medicine and eventually into research and product development. Together, Dr. Sharon and Dr. Know explore the role of CB2 receptors in the body and why this lesser-known part of the endocannabinoid system may be important when it comes to inflammation, pain, immunity, and healthy aging. Dr. Sharon also shares her own personal experience using Cannanda's beta-caryophyllene products during a period when she was experiencing significant hand pain and swelling. In this episode, you'll hear about: • The endocannabinoid system and the difference between CB1 and CB2 receptors • What beta-caryophyllene is and where it is naturally found • How beta-caryophyllene interacts with CB2 receptors without producing the intoxicating effects associated with CB1 activation • The relationship between CB2 receptors and inflammation • Why inflammation can be both beneficial and harmful depending on the circumstances • The potential role of CB2 activation in supporting healthy aging • Research exploring cannabinoids, beta-caryophyllene, and neurological health • Dr. Sharon's personal experience with Cannanda's CB2 products • The importance of looking at natural compounds as part of a broader approach to health and wellness • Cannanda's work with products formulated for both people and pets This conversation offers an intriguing look at an often-overlooked part of our body's natural systems and the ongoing research into how plant compounds such as beta-caryophyllene may support health and well-being. As Dr. Know emphasizes, beta-caryophyllene is not a magic bullet or cure-all. Individual responses can vary, and research into its potential applications continues to evolve.

    Fix Your Fatigue: The Hidden Causes of Chronic Exhaustion

    What if your fatigue isn't simply about needing more sleep—or getting older? On this episode of Maximum Medicine Radio, Dr. Sharon Martin welcomes Dr. Evan Hirsch, functional medicine physician and author of Fix Your Fatigue, for a powerful conversation about chronic fatigue, energy, the mitochondria, toxins, mindset and the many factors that can leave the body struggling to function at its best. Dr. Hirsch shares his own story of experiencing profound fatigue while already practicing functional medicine. Despite eating well, meditating and addressing nutritional, hormonal and other deficiencies, his energy continued to decline until he began looking more deeply at the underlying causes. His investigation ultimately revealed more than 30 contributing factors and became the foundation for the work he does today.     Rather than looking for one diagnosis or one simple solution, Dr. Hirsch describes a comprehensive approach that looks at deficiencies, toxicities, infections, lifestyle and nervous system dysfunction and how these factors can interfere with the body's ability to produce energy.    Sharon and Dr. Hirsch also explore the critical role of the mitochondria, why supporting the body's energy-producing systems is only part of the equation, and why identifying and addressing the underlying factors that are damaging those systems is so important.    And this conversation isn't only about physical health. Dr. Hirsch explains how mindset, gratitude, limiting beliefs, visualization and empowering questions can play a role in retraining the nervous system and changing the way we experience our lives and our health.    In this episode, you'll hear about: - Dr. Hirsch's personal journey with debilitating fatigue - Why chronic fatigue can have many different contributing factors - The relationship between toxins, infections, inflammation and energy production - Why mitochondrial health is so important - The role of vitamins, minerals, hormones, nutrition, sleep and movement - The "Toxic Five" Dr. Hirsch looks for in his approach - How nervous system dysfunction and trauma can affect the body - The connection between mindset and physical health - How gratitude can help shift your mental and emotional state - Why changing limiting beliefs can be an important part of healing - Simple practices you can begin today, including a daily gratitude or "thank you" practice     Dr. Hirsch is the author of Fix Your Fatigue, originally published in 2017, and continues to work with people dealing with chronic fatigue and persistent symptoms through his functional and integrative approach.

    Your Skin Is Talking: What Your Skin Reveals About Your Gut, Immunity & Overall Health

    What if your skin is telling you much more than whether you need a little more moisturizer or another cosmetic treatment? On this episode of **Maximum Medicine Radio**, Dr. Sharon Martin welcomes dermatologist Dr. Jonathan Carp for a fascinating conversation about the skin as a window into the health of the entire body. Dr. Carp explains why the skin is not simply our outer covering—it is an **immune and endocrine organ** and a powerful barrier between us and the outside world. Changes in the skin can sometimes provide clues about what is happening internally, even before other signs or lab results reveal an underlying imbalance.  The conversation takes a deeper dive into the **gut-skin connection**, exploring how the gut microbiome, gut barrier, inflammation, diet and immune function can all influence the skin. Dr. Carp shares what he has learned from working with patients who have made significant dietary and lifestyle changes, including the story of a patient whose severe eczema dramatically improved after changing her diet.  Dr. Carp also shares the personal experience that changed the direction of his medical practice and ultimately led him to explore nutrition, gut health and functional approaches more deeply. That journey eventually led to the creation of **Miracle Noodle**, a fiber-rich, low-carbohydrate noodle made from konjac.  Together, Sharon and Dr. Carp explore: - Why the skin can be an early indicator of what's happening inside the body - The skin's important role as an immune organ - The connection between the gut barrier, microbiome and skin health - How diet and lifestyle can influence inflammation and skin conditions - The relationship between gluten, celiac disease and certain skin conditions - Why blood sugar regulation and gut health matter for overall wellness - The role of fiber and prebiotics in supporting the gut microbiome - How healthy fats and less-processed foods can support the skin barrier - Why lifestyle changes can be difficult—and how our social environment can influence our ability to make them - Why regular full-body skin checks are so important for early detection of skin cancer  This episode offers a powerful reminder that **beautiful, healthy skin isn't just about what's happening on the surface.** Sometimes, the skin is communicating what the rest of the body needs us to hear.
