Katherine will discuss how food drive behavior and how it impacts our brains. In particular, she will discuss glu...

Hypnosis creates a state of aroused attentive concentration with a relative constriction of peripheral awareness. With controlled thinking suspended, hypnosis is to consciousness as what looking though a telephoto lens is to a camera. It is an effective method for managing pain, and treating anxiety and stress-related disorders. Past studies have shown that people hypnotized before operative care have a shorter procedure time and a significant reduction in intraprocedural complications, such as ...

Toxins are a major contributor to most chronic diseases. In history, there is the example of Mad Hatters Disease caused by mercury, and the fall of the Roman Empire has been attributed to lead poisoning. In 2010 there were 80,000 chemicals on the market. Very few of these were tested for safety. The exposure to toxins starts at an early age. Babies have been found with up to 200 chemicals in them before birth. Each year 6.5 billion pounds of chemicals are dumped into the air. These toxins have a...

Dr. Raji discusses the leading edge of quantitative neuroimaging volumetrics - the measurement of brain volumes from magnetic resonance images. Volume is a vital sign for the brain. When volumes are normal, this correlates to normal neuronal function. Reduction of brain volumes is seen with various neuropsychiatric disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, depression, and traumatic brain injury. What Dr. Raji's research has shown over the past 10 years is that brain volumes can actually change in r...

Dr. Lustig, a pioneer in studying the adverse health effects of sugar and high fructose corn syrup, describes how Big Business uses the science of addiction to keep us hooked to unhealthy foods. The result is that our health suffers. He discusses how marketing and the media subvert brain physiology to their advantage to veer us from the pursuit of happiness to the pursuit of pleasure (which means profit)

Chronic pain affects over 100 million US adults and 20 percent of children worldwide. Each year, Americans spend billions of dollar on medications, surgery and therapies in a quest to find relief - often leading to more suffering and hopelessness. Chronic pain is complex. It changes brain chemistry and can cause a loss of grey matter. Women and men process pain in different parts of the brain and consequently experience pain differently. Dr. Christo explains the complex nature of pain and provid...

More importantly, she discusses the nuts and bolts...

Diabetes is a world wide epidemic affecting an estimated 422 million people. In the United States, one in three Americans is either diabetic or prediabetic costing an annual $242 billion in medical treatments. Dr. Morstein describes how people with both type 1 and type 2 diabetes, can gain and maintain excellent control of blood sugar levels while living full, active, enjoyable lives. Her goal is to empower readers to take control of and manage this challenging condition. She discusses her compr...

Fibromyalgia affects many people and is often confused with other medical conditions. As it is often misdiagnosed, it often does not get appropriate treatment leading to the frustration of fibromyalgia patients. Dr. Brady discusses his multi-prong approach to finding the underlying causes and comorbid conditions. He addresses toxins and detoxification: the role of gut health, mitochondrial dysfunction, thyroid health, diet, mood, sleep, stress, and stress reduction.

Dr. Smith will discuss allergies and the many contributing factors. She will discuss the contributing factors and underlying triggers. The role of diet, the microbiome, theenvironment and toxins will be addressed. Also covered will be food intolerances, allergic sinusitis, asthma, skin conditions, and steps we can take to reduce the adverse effects of these conditions.

The phytobiome, the environment including soil organisms and its link to plants, is a new area of research. The phytobiome has indirect and direct connections to gut health, a healthy microbiome, and over all health. Soil organisms have an impact on human gut microbes which are essential for human health. With current farming practices, the soil nutrients have been depleted leading to less nutritious food. Dr. Ash discusses how a healthy phytobiome affects health and how healthy fertilizers can ...

With today's era of rampant food allergies, gluten free popularity and the rise of paleo eating, putting together a meal that will satisfy eveyone is easier said than done. Dianna describes how to do this to please everyone at the table. Lean how to turn some of our greatest comfort foods into healthy, paleo delicious treats.

Electromagnetic fields are one of the many environmental toxins that adversely affect our health. It affects all of us to varying degrees. It leads to mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, DNA damage, immune disturbances and both a leaky gut and leaky blood brain barrier. Research studies showed that cell phones and cordless phones increase the risk of the brain tumours - gliomas and acoustic neuromas. A pregnant mother's use of cell phones can change the brain structure of the offspring ...

David Wood posits that there is a 50 % chance that, by the year 2040, rejuvenation therapies will be widely available that will allow all of us to remain youthful indefinitely. As the results of ten years of research and his commitment to futurist and technoprogressive topics, David Wood discusses the possibility of a radical extension of human longevity and the reversal of the aging process. He discussed the technical feasibility of the abolition of aging as well as the clash of paradigms: acce...

Every year, 12 million Americans have negative reactions to the food they eat – of which, 30,000 of them will have to see medical attention some reactions are food ALLERGIES like nut or fish allergies and they are pretty easy to diagnose. Food SENSITIVITIES, on the other hand, are much more complicated and often go undiagnosed. Food sensitivities can lead to chronic conditions such as migraines, eczema, arthritis, obesity, weight gain, Crohn’s disease and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), depressi...

Occult infections are risk factors for various diseases including heart disease and autoimmune disease. Bacterial, viral and parasite infections may be major contributors to autoimmune disease. In this program you will learn how to identify occult infections, to identify which infections are feeling autoimmune diseases and how to minimise the adverse effects of these infections.

The global burden of dementia is staggering—it is a trillion dollar problem—and it is growing. Of the currently living Americans, about 45 million will die with Alzheimer’s disease (about 15% of the population). 75 million have the important genetic risk factor, ApoE4. Cognitive decline associated with Alzheimer’s disease and its precursors (MCI and SCI) can be prevented and reversed. The optimal approach for complex chronic illnesses such as Alzheimer’s disease is not a mono therapy but a perso...

Each human being has unique biochemistry which results in diverse nutritional needs. Individuals may be deficient in certain nutrients and overloaded in others. Advances in epigenetic science have sealed the powerful impact of nutrients on gene expression and have enabled improved treatment for mental disorders. Neurotransmitters, which are instrumental in mental disorders, appear to be epigenetic in absorption , metabolism and storage of key nutrients. For example we now understand that methion...
