Arash's World Podcast

In this episode, I have the pleasure of speaking with Deborah Kesten, founder of Integrative Eating and an international nutrition researcher and award-winning author who specializes in preventing and reversing obesity and heart disease.

Her fascinating book Whole Person Integrative Eating: A Breakthrough Dietary Lifestyle to Treat the Root Causes of Overeating, Overweight, and Obesity co-written with Larry Scherwitz is more than a diet, health, or self-help book. Deborah examines not only eating and behavior patterns, but she looks at our emotional, personal, and spiritual relationship to and connection with food with the WPIE program, a new, effective, and evidence-based approach to diet, food, nutrition, and overall health and wellness.

In this episode on Arash's World Podcast, Matt Erb, physiotherapist, owner of Embody Your Mind and faculty member and Associate Clinical Director for The Center for Mind-Body Medicine talks about applying and adapting the integrative holistic model in which the body, the mind, and the environment are intimately linked and interconnected and how and why this should be taken into consideration when it comes to effective treatments and remedies.

In this episode, the renowned orthopedic complex spine surgeon Dr. David Hanscom talks about what causes chronic pain and its complicated and complex effects on the body. He also proposes alternative ways and manners to deal with chronic stress and inflammation by adopting and applying a holistic model instead of a traditional medical approach.
