    How to Reverse Hypertension, Diabetes and Osteoporosis with Personal Trainer Igor Klibinov

    Have you wondered how some people can reverse their high blood pressure or diabetes? What are they doing that is improving their health even as they age?   We discussed these topics and more with this week’s episode of the Weekend Wellness Hour Show with personal trainer and CEO of Fitness Solutions Plus, Igor Klibinov.   Igor shared his journey into the personal training world and why he decided to start studying medical research of chronic health conditions. He spent years pouring through journals looking for answers to reversing high blood pressure, Type II diabetes and osteoporosis.    Igor explained his approach with each of his clients that includes an exercise prescription, nutritional adjustments and supplementation. He dove into why each of these areas are critical to bring about a change in a chronic condition.   We went through the importance of changing the way a person exercises depending on if they have high blood pressure, diabetes or osteoporosis. The time duration, intensity, type of exercise and amount of sets and reps is dependent on the condition.   Igor also gave some tips on nutrition for each of these conditions. He was very clear on why he doesn’t feel calcium strengthens bone but another macronutrient does.   We also explored the somewhat controversial topic of supplements. Igor gave his view on them and why he feels certain ones are needed for people based on the condition they are suffering from.   Igor is an author of 8 books related to health and exercise, 3 of which are Amazon best sellers.

    How Neuropuncture Can Help with a Variety of Chronic Conditions with Dr. Michael Corradino

    Did you feel that acupuncture helped you out, but what if you could take it a step further?  What if using electricity attached to acupuncture needles created a bigger change in your pain and health?   We discussed this topic for this week’s episode of the Weekend Wellness Hour Show with Dr. Michael Corradino. Dr. Corradino developed a method called neuropuncture in which he uses electricity going through acupuncture needles to elicit a nervous system response.   Dr. Corradino explained his path into Chinese medicine and acupuncture and his desire to learn more. He studied under medical physicians in China and began using electrical stimulation in conjunction with acupuncture needles to treat his patients.   We explored the importance of discovering a person’s neuropathology, which impacts their nervous system and overall health. He then went through what it means to neuromodulate and neuro-rehabilitate a person’s health.   Dr. Corradino touched on successes he has had beyond the traditional pain-related reasons people seek out acupuncture. He described the benefits of neuropuncture on diabetes, addiction, PTSD and Parkinson’s disease.   Dr. Corradino has been in the field of Integrated Medicine for over 25 years and has authored a book, “Neuropuncture, a neuroscience acupuncture system,” for clinicians looking to learn neuropuncture. He has also written several medical research papers and is currently involved in ground-breaking neuroscience electro-acupuncture research and stem cell and spinal cord injury electro-acupuncture research.   Please join us to learn how neuropuncture can help address some of your health conditions and why you might consider it.   Please feel free to reach out to Dr. Michael Corradino at https://www.neuropuncture.com.   -Dr. Amy Novotny   Subscribe to PABR Institute's email list for free Tips for Relief: https://pabrinstitute.activehosted.com/f/1   www.pabrinstitute.com

    How Does the Metaphysical World Help Us Understand Reality with Will Rodriguez

    Do you think about your reality and your existence?  Do the ideas beyond what we can see, touch and feel fascinate you?   This week for the Weekend Wellness Hour Show, we discussed metaphysics and what that means with Will Rodriguez, TV producer, owner of a video production company, creator and host of the Skeptic Metaphysicians podcast.   Will began his journey into the metaphysical world many years ago when he felt something was missing in his life and in his existence.  He began by interviewing experts in this subject to help him learn and then dove into research and other resources.   Will explained what is meant by the term metaphysics and he gave examples of various modalities that explore the metaphysical world to create changes for our reality.  His first exposure was learning reiki and seeing the healing power of this modality first hand.   We also went into the difference between metaphysical and spiritual and how people can have spiritual beliefs and experiences and still work on growth in the metaphysical world.  Will gave examples to help bring clarity to this subject.    Besides his interest in metaphysics, Will was also part of the production team that produced 19 Kids and Counting and the United Bates of America for TLC and is now the Regional Programming and Video Production Manager for a national TV network where he created Emmy-award nominated programming such as Destination Virginia; Untapped VA; I Do – The Ultimate Wedding Guide; Calm, Cool and Connected; and Living 757.   Please join us to learn how you can study metaphysics to enhance your health and experiences in life.   Please feel free to reach out to Will Rodriguez at https://www.skepticmetaphysician.com/.   -Dr. Amy Novotny   Subscribe to PABR Institute's email list for free Tips for Relief: https://pabrinstitute.activehosted.com/f/1   www.pabrinstitute.com

    What Is The Latest Technology in Breast Cancer Detection with CEO and Chemist Elizabeth Cormier-May

    Have you or a female friend recently gone through a mammogram as part of yearly testing? Did you or your friend feel discomfort or have complaints about the process?   For this week’s episode of the Weekend Wellness Hour Show, we interviewed CEO and chemist Elizabeth Cormier-May about mammograms and the importance of testing for breast cancer.  Elizabeth shared with us her novel approach that is now being tested through pilot studies that allows for easy detection of cancer markers.   Elizabeth began her career as a medicinal chemist focusing on ways to discover cancer in its early stages.  She decided to change into diagnostics to have a greater impact in women’s lives.    We first discussed some of the issues with mammograms that are a barrier to them being performed on a regular basis for women aged 40 year and older.  We explored the issue of false positives and the difficulty of detection for those with dense breast tissue.    We also touched on the lack of accessibility to mammograms for those in more rural areas and how that led Elizabeth to search for other ways to provide a screening test.  She began working with Mammogen, a female-led biotechnology company that uses the proprietary genTRU™ liquid biopsy platform.    Elizabeth explained the premise of liquid biopsy and went into the technology that allows for the detection cancer markers in saliva and blood.  She discussed how cancer leads to changes in our RNA so their technology detects those biomarker changes that are in our body fluids.   This process allows for women all over the world who have little access to healthcare clinics to be able to receive a test kit in the mail and do a saliva swab to determine if she has cancer markers that warrant a mammogram or further testing.  It helps remove the barriers to testing like discomfort from a mammogram or poor detection due to dense breast tissue.   Mammogen is currently doing pilot studies in various areas around the United States to provide more solid data to back up their initial highly successful results.  Part of their work is to make this affordable and accessible to all, even those who are younger with a history of breast cancer in the family.   Elizabeth has been in the biotechnology industry for nearly 20 years.  As well as leading Mammogen, Liz is also the CCO of IV Bioholdings; a bio innovation studio that conceives, creates and develops first-in-category RNA bio platforms which radically improve the detection, diagnosis and treatment of disease. Currently, she is Chairman of the Board, Co-Founder, President and CEO of her digital health start-up, Persona Health, Inc. and CEO and Board Director of Mammogen, Inc.   Please join us to learn this amazing technology to help you and women in your life detect breast cancer.   Please feel free to reach out to Elizabeth Cormier-May at https://www.mammogen.bio/.   -Dr. Amy Novotny   Subscribe to PABR Institute's email list for free Tips for Relief: https://pabrinstitute.activehosted.com/f/1   www.pabrinstitute.com
