Dr. Tim Herre, DDS is a holistic, biologic dentist in the Kansas City area. He does a deep dive into jaw issues that many of us are struggling with and not even KNOW it!!

As a pain and headache doctor myself, this podcast interview was ENLIGHTENING as so many of my patients are struggling with jaw pain and clicking/popping of their temporomandibular (TMJ) joint and subsequently develop chronic temporomandibular disorders (TMD). 

And Dr. Tim Herre with Holistic Dental KC tells us how to prevent and treat TMJ problems.

Dr. Tim discusses his 4 pillars of optimal health relating to a healthy airway, healthy mouth, teeth, jaw, sleep, and more!

And we find out that "the jaw is the most superior joint in the whole body!"

We discuss how the mouth and jaw is related to whole body wellness... I know sounds like a stretch--but oh so true. 

From nightguards, occlusal splint/orthotic appliances and how to long wear them, biomechanics of posture and cervical neck disorders, neuralgia, to preventing cavities, headaches and much more!

This is a jam packed episode full of good information, so please SHARE with as many friends and colleagues who need this info!

Master's Level Integrative and Functional Dietitian, Randy Evans, MS, RD, LD lays out the essential nutrients that we're missing in most of our diets today!

This is a must listen if you want to protect your health and body by giving it the nutrients it needs to perform, heal, and prevent illness. 

After years of working with NFL players, high performing athletes, women, and children with chronic illness, he finds that these healthy fats and proteins are what's missing in most of our meal plans. 

We'll answer questions on:

1. how to get the right ratio of Omega-3's to Omega-6's to balance inflammation

2. GLA from evening primrose oil that is anti-inflammatory for women's health including hormones, skin issues, and menstrual pain!

3. What kinds of foods are high in Omega-6's that are healthier than the oxidative damaged cooking oils known to wreak havoc on our immune, skin, gut, and brain health.

So just to recap last week’s episode, Randy Evans, our Master's Level Integrative Dietitian, discussed that it is tough to absorb that much cholesterol or saturated fats to influence serum lipids and heart disease risk.

What’s more important at reducing risk is lowering refined carb intake such as sugars bread, processed foods. In addition, eating more healthy fats such as extra virgin olive oil and omega-3’s have a favorable effect on lipids.

I highly encourage you to listen to both episode 8 and episode 31 as Randy just makes it so incredibly simple when he breaks down how to eat healthy for life. It’s not as hard as you think!

Dyslipidemia or a problem with our cholesterol and fats (triglycerides) is one of the top risk factors for cardiovascular disease (along with diabetes, smoking, obesity, and hypertension). 

There are so many contributors of dyslipidemia that we’re going to outline in this podcast and how we can use self-care approaches to prevent severe disease from occurring! 

With the current healthcare state, it is more timely than ever to learn how to stay healthy and prevent disease. None of us wants to be sick or pay ungodly amounts of money for tests, procedures, medicines or surgery.  

In this episode, we'll be discussing the top researched supplements that may lower cholesterol, insulin resistance, and risk of heart disease, stroke, and potentially diabetes. This isn't all inclusive, because we'd have about 4 or 5 more episodes to cover on just this alone!!! 

Supplements Discussed:

1. Berberine

2. Aged Garlic

3. Quercetin

4. Red Yeast Rice (to take or not to take??)

5. Resveratrol

6. Omega-3's

7. Niacin

reveals what the latest evidence says about high cholesterol and why medicine isn't really going to help prevent heart disease and risk of death.  1. He reviews how the old government's nutrition recommendations was based off of FLAWED research studies.     He mentions Ansel Keys and the 7 country study that fat was bad that led us to eat loads of sugar and carbs in our diet creating the OBESITY EPIDEMIC and High Triglycerides and Metabolic Syndrome! 2. He talks about how much cholesterol we can truly absorb from our diet 3. What types of fats we should avoid -- and what types we should consume for HEART HEALTH 4. The scoop on grains and processed carbs versus real natural whole foods - Mother Nature's Diet 5.

Combustion particles

Increases risk and may worsen chronic disease!!

No wonder why people feel sick after sucking in diesel fuel and living near wildfires that plagued certain states this 2020.

Anxiety is one of the most common symptoms worldwide, where our sympathetic nervous system is in a state of heightened alert!

The symptoms of anxiety can include difficulty breathing, chest tightness, difficulty speaking, stumbling on your words, shaking, feeling tired but revved up at the same time.

Difficulty concentrating, your mind just going “blank”, restlessness, having intrusive thoughts with persistent worrying, overthinking every decision or option to avoid any negative outcomes.

It’s like having an invisible threat that isn’t really there - only in the deep crevices of our mind making us fear to protect ourselves.

Get ready to dive deep as I talk about the research and evidence behind 

1. Nutrition and Gut Health and Microbiome

2. Exercise for Anxiety

3. Active Relaxation (guided imagery, progressive muscle relaxation, hypnosis, meditation, and mindfulness)

4. Sleep

5. Light Therapy

6. Supplements (magnesium, L-lysine and L-arginine, passionflower, chamomile, fennel, lemon balm, and Kava)
