    #cannacook #eatrealfood #FIMM

    Guests: Mary Williams RN, Med, Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner 
    "I grew up on a small urban farm and was lucky enough to be raised by a mother who was into healthy eating when it wasn’t popular-Adele Davis was her nutrition mentor.  As a child, I ate garden vegetables from soil that I’m sure was organic (but we didn’t even need to know that term) grass fed pork, beef and chicken, pastured eggs, raw milk, cream and homemade butter, bone broth soups and homemade bread.   But, when I left home, I adopted the ways of our culture and spent the next ~40 years indulging in the SAD (standard American diet) replete with margarine, low fat, high sugar processed foods, highly processed oils, feed lot meats full of antibiotics and hormones etc.  You get the picture.   I am also a Registered Nurse with a Master Degree in Education and spent my 39 year nursing career in the hospital environment both as a nurse and a healthcare executive.  I loved my work and might still be there if circumstances had been different.  About 9 years ago, when my husband became debilitated with an autoimmune disease, I quit work to stay home and care for him.  This journey over the next 7 years led me to read and study all I could about ways to help him and focused primarily on nutrition.  To his dismay, he was the subject of many different food experiments and supplements in this attempt.     During that period, I spent a lot of time in the kitchen. We began drinking raw pastured milk, and I started making homemade raw butter and cheeses, fermenting fruit/veges and teas, soaking grains, nuts and legume, etc.  I slowly converted our home to an organic, non-toxic environment (that mission is not quite finished).    In the end, I couldn’t do enough to help him heal himself, but I have become convinced that through his illness, I discovered a purpose for the rest of my life.  That purpose is to improve my own health through proper diet and lifestyle and to help anyone who will let me do the same.  I believe passionately that we all can help our bodies to heal if we nourish them well and eliminate toxins from our lives.   I try hard every day to live what I preach.  My attempts are far from ideal but every morning I commit to doing everything I can that day to regain and maintain good health – through food/supplements, exercise, attitude and lifestyle." https://www.marywillnourish.com

  • S4, Extended Episode 6: Celebrating Cannabis Physicians

    The Wendy Love Edge Show with Topher Kogen does not dispense medical advice and all of your health choices are your own.

      Guests: 

     Dr. Uma Dhanabalan https://totalhealthcarethc.com

She is a Fellow of the American Academy of Family Physicians and a Diplomat Certified in Cannabis Medicine.

Dr. Dhanabalan believes that “Cannabis is not an entrance drug; it is an exit drug from pharmaceuticals and narcotics.”™️ 

     Dr Brian Nichol

     https://cannabisexpertmd.com

    "Medical cannabis patients are certified by a physician as having a qualifying condition. The patient is issued a card and then, too often is left to decide for themselves as to the best treatment. Dispensary employees are usually the cornerstone of giving patients advice on strains and how to use cannabis.  Modern medicine treats disease with the drugs that are effective for the majority of patients, forgetting that we are all very different individuals. What is a good choice for one patient may be ineffective or cause side effects in another. Although most patients see some improvement in using cannabis, getting the best result is a bit more complicated… I have seen patients without much knowledge or direction experience lukewarm results of medical marijuana. I have also seen those so-so results turn into remarkable improvement under the knowledgeable direction of a doctor that treats the individual patient using the correct combination/forms/amount of cannabis. It is my hope to sift through all the noise, marketing, agenda driven studies, politics and stigmas encountered when one tries to be an informed medical cannabis patient. I want you to get the best result from medical cannabis you can." 


    Dr Mary Clifton

    Kyle Paradiso
      Bio: Kyle Paradiso Founder/CEO of Sleepy Bear (Veteran Owned and Operated CBD Company) Background: -Former Army Ranger -Graduate of The Citadel Military College of South Carolina with a Bachelor of Science (Exercise Science). Went onto to Graduate Studies at the University of San Diego, focusing study on the use of CBD and THC as a viable alternative medical intervention for veterans. -Former Veteran Liaison for Service Learning and Civil Engagement, The Citadel Military College of South Carolina The Sleepy Bear Story: A tale of how some little blue bears dared to help people dream. Launched in early 2020, Sleepy Bear was born with one idea in mind: to provide a natural nighttime option that customers could trust to not only be effective but most importantly safe. Sleepy Bear was founded by Kyle Paradiso, a former army ranger, whose service injuries guided him into research involving the use of cannabis and other homeopathic remedies for medical intervention. While working on his graduate degree, the 2018 Farm Bill was passed, legalizing hemp products nationwide. With this legalization came a flood of subpar CBD products emerging on the market. It was during this time he realized a glaring lack of scientifically minded and effectively formulated products and saw an opportunity to create a better class of products, hoping to further the narrative for change. It was with this passion and heart that he created Sleepy Bear. The heart of our company, a little blue bear, quickly found its way into stores nationwide and the bedroom of thousands of happy and sleepy customers

    Matt Flowers: IG @happy_hillbilly419 Matt Flowers

     "My name is Matt Flowers.  I am a survivor of child abuse, sexual abuse by a family member (at a very young age), and neglect. I was born in Iowa, but moved to Arkansas at 9 years old, in 1992. About 1997 or 1998, I discovered cannabis for the first time. I realized that I was finally able to be calm after years of being prescribed different types of medicines for ADHD that did not work. I was finally able to feel normal. Since cannabis was not yet legal, I struggled through using different narcotics, psychotropic medicines, and prescriptions for my various health issues. This led to suicide attempts throughout my life, including one that led me to being hospitalized. About the same time, cannabis was coming up for a legalization vote in Arkansas. My wife and I decided to explore the use of cannabis once again as part of my medical regime. Of course, that made a big difference.  In the past couple years, I have opened up to my wife and we discovered together that cannabis helps my pain and makes me a better father and husband.  Creating art became an outlet for my mental health therapy, especially since I struggle with reading and writing, so journaling was not helpful for me. After a few months, I discovered that painting pieces that feature cannabis are the ones that I enjoy creating the most." - Matt Flowers
