Karlen Nurijanyan

Food insecurity, which is the lack of access to sufficient food of adequate quality to meet one’s basic needs, affects millions of Americans, as well as people worldwide. This has only worsened during the pandemic. College students in particular have high rates of food insecurity. Studies show that 1 in 3 students lack the financial means to support themselves, leading to food insecurity. Los Angeles-based non-profit organization Student Lunch Box (SLB) is working to change that. Led by Karlen Nurijanyan, SLB is a 501(c)3 approved, tax-exempt non-profit organization that is fighting food insecurity among college students. I chatted with Karlen about the issue of food insecurity and how it affects students, and how his organization is helping to address this in the Los Angeles area. Currently, SLB operates pop-up food distribution centers and other food access sites at colleges and universities in Los Angeles. Visit Student Lunch Box’s website or their Instagram to learn more about their mission.

Caregiving for Loved Ones With Lynn Abaté-Johnson

This is the audio version of the blog post about the same topic. A big part of healing your relationship with your body is learning to accept it. Accepting your body includes appreciating all that it does for you and being grateful for it. We often direct a lot of judgment toward our bodies. While it’s great to have health and fitness goals, unnecessary self-criticism can be harmful to our relationship with our bodies and to meeting these goals.  Body acceptance is a component of body neutrality, which is a position that lies between body positivity and being judgmental or critical of your body. Forcing ourselves to say that we love our bodies can be intimidating, and frankly, not always genuine. Body neutrality means that there’s no pressure to love your body when you don’t (although it’s wonderful if you do!). Instead, it’s about accepting, respecting, and appreciating what it can do for you. It’s also about detaching your inherent worth from your body or how it appears.

This is the audio version of the blog post of the same title. In this podcast, I talk about showing grace to ourselves and others, and being gentle with ourselves during our health journeys. I also talk a little about how a fear of judgment leads to less utilization of health care services, the social determinants of health, moralization of food, and choosing exercise that brings joy, rather than viewing it as a chore. Accepting our bodies and appreciating what they can do for us goes a long way! More to come in this series!

This is the audio version of the blog post, “Fermented Foods: Benefits and Basics.” Have you ever tried fermented foods? Do you make your own fermented food or drink, like sauerkraut or kombucha? In this post, I will introduce the benefits of fermentation.  What is fermentation? Fermentation is an ancient technique used to preserve food. Fermented food and drink are full of bacteria and yeast that are beneficial for our bodies, rather than harmful. These are called probiotics. While you can take probiotics in capsule form as a supplement, adding fermented food and drink to your diet can have the same benefit, while also tasting great!

Janice King

Oral health is so important to our overall health! My guest on this episode is Janice King, founder of NOWsystems, Inc. and Triology, and an oral health advocate. We talk about how our gums can be a gateway to systemic disease throughout the body, and how to keep them healthy! Our gums are damaged not by poor oral hygiene, but by constant micro-tears by vigorous brushing, flossing, consuming processed foods, and commercial mouthwashes. Our gums can become chronically inflamed, and harmful bacteria can enter our bodies. This bacteria can contribute to Alzheimer's disease, cardiovascular disease, rheumatoid arthritis, erectile dysfunction, and more. After 40, our saliva production decreases, so people can protect their gums with a healthy diet and gentle care. Janice shares her wisdom and some information about her products from Triology Care!Find out more about keeping your gums healthy at www.triologycare.com/teaspoon.Show notes:[1:30] The U.S. Surgeon General's report about a pandemic of oral disease[3:00] Janice's participation in a four-year research study about oral health [6:30] The dental microbiome and why commercial toothpaste and mouthwash may be harming it and our healing fibroblast cells[9:35] Chronic gum inflammation - the gateway to systemic disease[15:30] How vigorous brushing &amp; flossing is damaging to the gums[16:45] Oral bacteria P. gingivalis found in the brains of age-related Alzheimer's patients, how it contributes to cardiovascular disease[28:08] The history behind Triology Care

Brittany Muchko

Thousands of women get breast implants every year, and most women have no problems with them. A percentage of women, however, experience a host of symptoms - from fatigue, hair loss, anxiety, depression, chest pain, digestive distress, eczema, autoimmune conditions, and even acne - resulting from their breast implants. These symptoms can be lumped together as breast implant illness (BII). My guest, holistic health coach and former bikini competitor Brittany Muchko shares her healing journey from breast implant illness. After being happy with her implants for two years, she began to experience symptoms - digestive upset, eczema, acne, excruciating fatigue - and began her search for a doctor that would take her symptoms seriously. She eventually had explant surgery, where her implants were removed, and over time, she began to heal. She shares her journey back to optimum health on this episode. We also talk about her time in bikini competitions, and how she switched from extreme, punishing diets to a more holistic way of eating. Brittany is now a holistic health coach who helps women lose weight and beat bloating without dieting.

Health educator and coach Nicole Carter returns to the show to talk about the carnivore diet and how it helped her heal from long-standing health problems. An ex-vegan, Nicole ate a whole-food plant-based diet for over 15 years, as well as a year as a raw vegan. She describes how her health deteriorated for many years while she was vegan. She was eventually diagnosed with ulcerative colitis. After many attempts to stay plant-based, Nicole slowly added fish and eggs to her diet, at the advice of her doctor. This helped, but her symptoms didn't completely resolve until she went fully "carnivore" or "zero carb." Eating only meat, fish, and eggs, Nicole claims she has healed from her health conditions, has amazing energy and is in the best shape of her life.
