Brain-Based Health: Optimizing Sleep, Breathing, and Neurodevelopment | SNH Podcast #135


Listen Later

In this episode of the Smarter Not Harder Podcast, Dr. Scott Wustenberg joins Jodi Duval to explore how foundational neurological principles can transform our understanding of supplements, neurodevelopment, and chronic illness. Together, they dive into the brain-centric roots of dysfunction and how precise, science-backed interventions—like neuro-supportive gummies—can optimize outcomes across the lifespan.

Dr. Wustenberg is a seasoned Australian chiropractor, medical nutritionist, and educator with over 20 years of clinical experience. He is the founder of Advance Rehab in Brisbane, CEO of Optimal Sleep Airway Health, and creator of the OptiHuman Project. His work is rooted in chiropractic neurology, sleep and airway medicine, and functional nutrition.

Join us as we delve into:

  • Why chewing is essential to vagus nerve activation and nutrient absorption
  • How tongue ties, oral development, and sleep fragmentation contribute to neurodevelopmental challenges
  • The 5 foundational rules of human health—and how they apply to anxiety, ADHD, and autism
  • Why Dr. Wustenberg created functional health gummies—and how they're changing the game for compliance

This episode is for you if:

  • You're a parent, clinician, or educator working with neurodivergent individuals
  • You've struggled with supplement compliance in children or adults
  • You're curious about the deep connections between airway development, sleep, and cognitive health
  • You want a practical, compassionate lens on healing through brain-first, body-wide support
