As the new year begins, 2023 recaps come across your feed filled with memories made over the past year. Unfortunately for some, the topic of memories often leads to the worry of being at risk of Alzheimer's, as this disease is often related to aging, leaving out the actual factors behind it.

In this episode, Kashif delves into the reality behind Alzheimer's, the most common type of dementia in which symptoms include memory loss, lessened or loss of awareness of one's surroundings, weight loss, among others. Starting off with an example from Chris Hemsworth's show "Limitless," Chris was told that he was eight to ten times more at risk of getting dementia but was never told ways to prevent it, as Kashif points out.

Kashif then explains the potential risk factors as well as the habits and lifestyle that contribute to having Alzheimer's besides aging - the number one cause being inflammation. Inflammation in the brain does not occur instantly but is developed over the years with our choices and the reality of the environment in which we now live. This fact prompts Kashif to look into the difference in the reality of our ancestors who lived healthily and lacked stimulations from EMFs, pollution, and food with no nutritional value.

These factors revealed in the episode are related to studies made regarding genetics, mitochondria, metabolic health, leaky gut, and energetics. They explain how dementia develops over the years, as no one is born with dementia or any symptoms of it.

There is no silver bullet when it comes to purifying the air that you breathe based on your environment!

In this episode, Justin Harris interviews David Milburn, CTO of HypoAir (Hypoallergenic Air LLC). HypoAir's Core Design Philosophy is to use state-of-the-art technologies to replicate the natural processes that produce clean, fresh air outside - bringing that same purity indoors.

Throughout the episode, Justin and David discuss the reality that we face today - that 100% of our homes are prone to mold. This is where air purifiers come in, but are you choosing the air purifier that's right for your home?

David shares how these different products are capable of cleaning the air around you, along with proper techniques that you must take note of in order to get the best results for your household to experience a healthier air environment.

Justin and David dive deep into the different types of pollution based on indoor and outdoor situations and how the right products with proper ionization can make the difference. In line with this, they point out that these unique situations are not solely due to the external environment alone, but factors such as your genetic makeup and your body's ability to detoxify are also huge contributors to how your body responds.

They also provide travel hacks which you may have never even heard of to keep you from inhaling all the dangers that cleaning products have to offer.

What would you do if someone told you that you are not allowed to pursue a certain sport or passion because of your genetics?

Ultramarathon Runner Lisa Tamati experienced that at the beginning of her athletic career, but it didn't stop her. That very statement alone allowed her to work around her genetics, build strengths, and understand weaknesses that enabled her to achieve the impossible - completing over 140 marathons and conquering the 222km track of the Himalayas.

Lisa Tamati is renowned for being a Professional Ultra Endurance athlete with 25 years of experience running the toughest endurance events in the world.

With over 140 ultra-marathons to her name, as well as National Titles and numerous podium places in international races, Lisa is constantly pushing the limits of human endurance. Lisa has also penned two international best-selling running books and is a sought-after motivational speaker and health optimization coach.

In this episode, Kashif and Lisa discuss the importance of knowing one's genetics in order to fully optimize health, longevity, and the rate of aging. Lisa's profile is the perfect example in this case. Lisa shares how she deals with oxidative stress, how she restored her health to an optimal state, her diet, lifestyle, and how she keeps her aging rate to a minimum.

Throughout the discussion, Lisa also recounts one of her most memorable races, also known as the world's highest running race, where she battled through a series of trials - asthma attacks, lack of oxygen, fear, extreme temperatures, and everything else imaginable, yet proven possible by Lisa and her peers.

Do you struggle with restlessness, fatigue, and difficulty sleeping? You may just find the solution to all of that in this episode!

Join Dr. Lara Varden as she interviews Roudy Nassif, the founder of Vivarays, leading the Light Revolution. His company is responsible for introducing the world's first circadian light-harmonizing eyewear. These glasses harmonize the adverse effects of artificial light coming from screens and indoor light bulbs, helping individuals sync with nature's rhythm for a more vibrant life.

In this episode, Dr. Lara and Roudy discuss the following points:

Roudy's Story:
Roudy has suffered from ADHD, headaches, and eyestrain since childhood. No matter what he did - consulting with doctors, trying out different diets and supplements, and seeking advice from various health experts - he was unable to feel better. He continued to struggle with sleep and productivity.

He carried this frustration as he grew older, still unable to find any solution. That is until he tried farming and lived a life exposed to the outdoors, with the sunrise and sunset just around the corner. This life-changing experience allowed his health to transform, with remarkable changes to his sleep, focus, and overall health. This led to his curiosity in studying light and its effects on the circadian rhythm.

Light and the Circadian Rhythm:
Light sends signals to your body regarding which hormones it must produce at specific points of the day. The reason we feel sleepy, energized, or productive is all affected by the intensity and type of light we expose ourselves to.

Take the sun as an example. The sun provides natural blue light that does not spike like artificial blue light. It is also mixed with different shades, allowing our bodies to become energized and alert as we start the day and expose ourselves to sunlight, leading to cortisol production. As the day progresses, we have the sunset, which has a more red hue, reminiscent of the bonfires that our ancestors exposed themselves to at the end of the day, ramping up melatonin levels and preparing us for sleep.

Vivarays and Aiding with Light Exposure:
Understanding how light affects our bodies, Roudy developed Vivarays. Vivarays are revolutionary lenses that provide all-day protection, allowing us to reclaim nature's dark/light cycles with a pair of glasses. This one-of-a-kind eco-friendly lens technology allows you to sleep and function better, giving your body just what it needs at different points of the day.

Happy Movember!

Beginning back in 2003, Movember has now become an annual movement in November to raise awareness of men's health issues, addressing misconceptions and ways to improve this aspect of health. In line with this, we launch this episode to delve into the reality of male hormones - a significant factor in how we should navigate men's health.

In this episode, the Co-Founder of the DNA Company, Kashif Khan, discusses male hormones in the context of the hormone cascade. He explains how, biologically, males and females actually produce the exact same hormones, but the priorities, problems, and opportunities for these are different. These differences are observed when comparing a woman's 28-day cycle to a man's daily cycle, examining the disparity between being androgenized or estrogenized, exploring fitness and health, and understanding how hormone disruptions are common yet preventable in this day and age.

We will never be wiser than nature!

In this episode, we dive into the benefits of natural Chinese medicine with Dr. Chloe Weber of Radical Roots, hosted by Dr. Lara Varden. There are several medications available on the market, but natural medicine is one of the best gifts we have received from nature - proof of that is the story of Radical Roots, Dr. Chloe, and her child, Remy.

Chloe currently has a private practice in NYC, seeing patients in Manhattan and Bellmore. Working with Remy has led Chloe to extensively study integrative neurology and functional medicine, motivating her to find ways to help children with neurodevelopmental issues and seizures. While Remy and Chloe both felt better with the many hemp extract oils they tried, nothing stopped Remy’s seizures. Chloe felt she could create a stronger formula to help those with seizures, which is how Radical Roots was born!

Dr. Lara and Dr. Chloe discuss the early signs of a deadly disease that Dr. Chloe went through and how it led to her passion and study of Chinese herbs. Chinese herbs have been around for thousands of years and are backed by evidence-based science, including research for efficacy. Dr. Chloe shares how Chinese medicine helped her stop smoking and cured her of her disease. These extracted oils have also helped in battling the disharmonies her child was facing, who is now able to communicate and live a better life, which was one thing that she was often warned about.


Here are the points discussed throughout the episode:

00:00 Introduction
03:10 Dr. Chloe and being Diagnosed with Cutaneous Leishmaniasis
06:23 Dr. Chloe's current state of health with the help of Chinese Medicine

One out of five people struggle with what they need to do due to their mental health. With this in mind, how can we make healthcare for mental health more accessible?

There have been several solutions found for mental health over the years - therapy, medications, and the like - but these are costly and not attainable for all. We live in a world where there has been much progress on the mental health stigma, but there is still a ways to go in uncovering all the truths about mental health. Despite this, there are actually natural solutions that are within our reach and will allow prevention of a continuous decline in mental health. This is achievable by addressing the root cause and understanding what factors affect the state of our mental health.

Dr. Krista Kostroman takes us into refreshing our perspective on mental health. She is licensed as a naturopathic doctor (ND) with the College of Naturopaths of Ontario (CONO) and earned her Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine from the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine (CCNM). Dr. Krista is also an active member of the Ontario Association of Naturopathic Doctors (OAND), the Canadian Association of Naturopathic Doctors (CAND), and the Oncology Association of Naturopathic Physicians (OncANP).

In this episode, Dr. Krista Kostroman, N.D. discusses the five types of communities in dealing with mental health: Gut, Body, Mind, Community, and Spirit. These are discussed in relation to mental health in order to keep things simple while optimizing your mental health functions for the long run.

Necessity is the mother of invention.

This statement is proven true when SaunaSpace was invented, now your best source for your own Infrared Sauna built-in with light therapy from incandescent lamps. It all started when Brian experienced adrenal fatigue after college and made his own electric light bath - now he has a workshop where they carefully craft these organic devices, which is not only a step but a leap towards detoxification, rejuvenation, a boosted immune system, longevity, increased physical and mental performance, among several other health benefits that it could offer.

In this episode, Dr. Lara Varden is joined by Brian Richards, the founder and inventor of SaunaSpace. What started in 2008 as a DIY project and a personal journey to optimal health inspired him to create SaunaSpace’s Incandescent Sauna product line in order to help others discover the pathway to natural healing, which now includes the world’s first Faraday-Cage Sauna.

Dr. Lara and Brian dive into the health benefits of a sauna session and everything else related to saunas. This involves the scientific explanation of how photobiomodulation, a form of light therapy, varies depending on the bulbs that were used - even involving how traditional practices such as basking in the sun throughout different points of the day are beneficial.
