    Ep 714 Support a Healthier Microbiome with a Fermented Probiotic.

    Most probiotic formulas on the market are made from bacteria that are rapidly cultured on dairy or soy. Once grown, these microbes are separated from their nutrient-rich environment, a process that unfortunately strips away the beneficial compounds they naturally produce—known as Postbiotics.After being freeze-dried, encapsulated, and shipped, the surviving bacteria face a daunting challenge: they must rehydrate, locate food, and begin multiplying inside your body. Only then can they start producing Postbiotics—if they survive the journey at all.Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotics are different. Rather than rushing the process, they’re fermented for three full years in a nutrient-dense botanical medium. This allows the bacteria to naturally generate a rich array of Postbiotics—already present and active the moment you take them. It’s not just a probiotic—it’s a complete ecosystem of beneficial compounds, ready to support your health from day one.As you know, not all probiotics are created equal. Whether you are trying to improve your digestion, immune system, brain health or overall wellness, choosing the right probiotic can make a real difference.  Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotics has decades of research that Essential Formulas had done to develop their unique formulas.Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotics were created by renowned microbiologist Dr. Iichiroh Ohhira and then validated by over 35 years of clinical and scientific research. Multiple peer-reviewed clinical studies have confirmed Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotics wide-range benefits.Numerous people taking Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotics often report having a reduction in fatigue and increased energy, stamina and endurance. This has been reported in a study with healthy adults and in another study with trained athletes.  Another thing that many people experience is an improvement in their digestion and elimination. In one study, a group of college-age women with a history of poor bowel habits and irregular elimination took 3 capsules of Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotics daily for two weeks. By the end of the 2-week test period, ALL the women were having normal, healthy, daily bowel movements. Typically, after 3-4 weeks, sometimes sooner, many people report reduced bloating, less gas, and regular predictable bowel movements.Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotics are available at Natural Grocers, Sprouts, and other natural health retailers across the U.S. Also available online Learn more at Essentialformulas.com

    Ep 713 Whats the difference between NMN & NAD?

    We are hearing a lot about the benefits of NAD and NMN. But consumers are often left wondering which one to take.The main difference between NMN and NAD+ is that NAD+ is the molecule your cells use to produce energy and support normal cellular functions, while NMN is a compound your body uses to make NAD+. Both are popular in the longevity and healthy-aging supplement market, but they work differently.NMN has become a familiar name on supplement shelves, marketed as a tool for slowing aging and boosting energy. Here’s a closer look at what it is and what the research shows.What Is NMN, and Why Does It Matter?Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) is a molecule the body uses to build nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), a coenzyme essential to nearly every cell. NAD+ powers cellular energy production and acts as a signaling molecule, regulating DNA repair, immune responses, and epigenetic changes — the chemical switches that turn genes on and off. The body can also make NAD+ from tryptophan, vitamin B3, and nicotinamide riboside (NR), but NMN converts into NAD+ rapidly once ingested.NAD+ levels decline naturally with age, and that decline tracks with several hallmarks of aging. Human skin studies show a roughly 70 percent drop in NAD+ alongside rising oxidative DNA damage; liver tissue shows about a 30 percent loss between ages 45 and 60; and brain imaging shows a 10 to 25 percent decline from adolescence to old age. Because NAD+ supports energy metabolism, cardiovascular and neurological protection, DNA repair, and anti-inflammatory activity, NMN supplementation has become a key strategy for offsetting this decline.Learn more about Dr. Mark StenglerLearn more about Emerald Labs NMN+Red Orange Complex Use the code Forever to save 20% OFF on the full line of Emerald Labs products.

    Ep 710 Creatine More than Muscle Power.

    We have a great show planned today and will talk about why there has been a significant rise in people of all ages using Creatine. To help us unpack all the research and studies we have Dr. Stengler joining us today.In addition to authoring 30 books on health and several best-sellers such as “The Natural Physician’s Healing Therapies,” “Prescription for Natural Cures,” “Prescription for Drug Alternatives,” and “Outside the Box Cancer Therapies,” Dr. Stengler has been published in several peer-reviewed medical journals such as The International Journal of Family & Community Medicine, Endocrinology & Metabolism International Journal, and Journal of Nutritional Health & Food Engineering.Dr. Stengler’s, NMD. The newest book is called, The Holistic Guide to Gut Health.A comprehensive yet accessible approach to healing leaky gut and the many uncomfortable symptoms it causes. Dr Stengler is also the founder of The Stengler Center for Integrative Medicine.Talking Points:Is creatine only useful for resistance / power type activities?There are a variety of athletic events, not just resistance/power activities, which may benefit from creatine supplementation.-Creatine supplementation with carbohydrate or carbohydrate and protein has been reported to promote greater muscle glycogen storage than carbohydrate supplementation alone.-May reduce muscle damage and/or enhance recovery from intense exercise.-Individuals supplementing their diet with creatine experienced less muscle damage, inflammation, and muscle soreness in response to running 30-km as well as during 4-weeks of intensified training.-There is evidence that athletes who supplement with creatine during training experience fewer musculoskeletal injuries, accelerated recovery time from injury and less muscle atrophy after immobilization.-Creatine supplementation (with or without glycerol) has been reported to help athletes hyper-hydrate and thereby enhance tolerance to exercise in the heat-There is evidence from animal models that creatine supplementation is neuroprotective and can reduce the severity of spinal cord injury, cerebral ischemia, and concussion/traumatic brain injury. This evidence was so compelling that the International Society of Sports Nutrition recommended that athletes engaged in sports that have a potential for concussion and/or spinal cord injury take creatine for its neuroprotective effects.Learn more about Dr. StenglerLearn more about Emerald Labs Creatine HealthListeners can save 20% off the full line of Emerald Labs productswith the code: Forever

    Ep 708 Help Maintain Youthful hormone levels as YOU age (Men & Women).

    Today we will be covering the hormone DHEA. What it is and what it does, and how to use it correctly.DHEA is an anti-aging supplement. It does give an advantage. It is shown to play a role in improving libido, building muscle, and reducing risks of cardiovascular disease and cancer.To help us to share the health benefits of DHEA we have Hugh Woodward, He is the President of Health2Go, Inc the makers of Twist 25 DHEA cream.Hugh is a subject matter expert on DHEA dedicating the past 20+ years of his life to studying medical research about it, and starting a company to research, and develop the safest most effective DHEA supplement (cream) that can be made and distributed.DHEA is short for dehydroepiandrosterone, it is a naturally occurring prohormone we all make and have. DHEA is the most abundant naturally occurring prohormone in the human body.-A foundation or base building block for other smaller more specific hormones like testosterone and estrogens and about 50 other hormones that are smaller, more specific carbon chain molecules in the cascade of metabolism in the human body.-Hormones drive our energy, mood, muscle tone, fat, quality of sleep, mental sharpness, immune system, sex drive, and more.As a result of aging, and a gradual lowering of natural DHEA production after age 25, many of our natural body processes begin to slow down. As a result, most people start to have less energy and gain weight, have lower sex drive, and tend to start losing their mental sharpness and drive, have trouble sleeping and may start to get sick more often.

    Ep 707 Minerals that Affect Mental Health

    If you would like to learn more about the show, please feel free to visit our website at foreveryoungradio.com where you can listen to past shows and read fantastic articles.Back by special request we have The Mineral Geek returning today. Caroline Alan is a mineral expert, author, and Co-Founder and CEO of BEAM Minerals.   We will cover, The main minerals that affect mental health with a highlight on Plant-Based Minerals.We tend to think of problems with mental health being solved with therapy.  But you are saying that mineral deficiency plays a role.  How is it connected?The main minerals that affect mental health:Magnesium - energy production. Magnesium blocks NMDA receptors in the brain. This action stops excess nerve excitation. It modulates the HPA (hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal) axis, helping to lower stress hormones like cortisol. Magnesium helps support and balance neurotransmitters like serotonin (for mood), GABA (for calm), and melatonin (for sleep). Mental or physical stress can deplete magnesium levels, and low magnesium can increase feelings of anxiety and depression, creating a continuous cycleCopper - Works with Magnesium and is key to making dopamine, norepinephrine, serotonin in the body. Copper helps regulate stress hormones and your thyroid, which keeps your mood stableSelenium - The brain needs thyroid hormones (T3 and T4) to control mood. Selenium-dependent enzymes activate these hormones. Selenium may help modulate dopamine and serotonin, the brain chemicals responsible for happiness and emotional stabilityZinc - dopamine, serotonin and Gaba (calming) - important for anxiety.  Zinc calms overactive NMDA receptors in brain cells, which protects neurons from toxic stress and damage linked to depressionIron - Iron acts as an essential helper (cofactor) for enzymes that manufacture key mood chemicals like dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine.  Low iron can disrupt the body's stress-response system (the HPA axis), making it harder to calm your nervous system and increasing your sensitivity to anxiety.Helpful ArticleLearn more about BEAM Minerals (Use code Forever for 20% OFF)Beamminerals.comhttps://www.instagram.com/beamminerals/https://mineralresetbook.com/
