How can I ease my anxiety and depression? A question many of us find ourselves pondering when we have reached a place where we cannot seem to get relief. Maybe medication is not working for you, maybe your immune system, mood and behaviours are effected from your illness.
So, when all is lost, how can we support our bodies holistically?
Dr Sinclair Bode (MBBS, FACNEM) has focused his practice on integrative medicine allowing him to take new patients and to help more families confronted with complex medical problems. Not only has Dr Bode been an integral part in helping people heal from complex medical problems, but he contributed to Mahalia's recovery from depression and anxiety disorder.
If you are seeking natural remedies for depression and want to understand your gut microbiome, if you want to feel good about your health and ease anxiety with natural remedies, this episode opens up the conversation on ways we can look deeper holistically. This episode is all about bringing awareness to how making small adjustments to our health can improve our mental wellbeing and overall complex issues.
Dr Bode graduated from medicine at Adelaide University in 1986. He worked at the Flinders Medical Centre as an intern and RMO, before beginning a 3-month country rotation as a GP trainee in Broken Hill. Dr Bode fell in love with the area and continued to work at the Broken Hill Hospital as a registrar for several years in the Emergency, paediatrics and ICU / CCU departments and with the Royal Australian Flying Doctors Service. Returning to Adelaide, Dr Bode benefited from working in several practices, gaining invaluable experience and cementing his commitment to general practice. In the 1990s, Dr Bode began doing a lot of work in the area of cancer and palliative care. A program on Euthanasia, featuring one of his patients, made him aware of an underlying desire to provide patients access to information and treatments, otherwise unavailable to them.
He was introduced to Nutritional and Environmental Medicine in 1997 and this change in direction enabled him to further increase his repertoire of tools, to aid in the treatment of a variety of complex conditions. Dr Bode became actively involved with the Australian College of Nutritional and Environmental Medicine working on the board, in education and on the fellowship committees. Dr Bode has also been actively involved with Autism SA, Cancer Care Centre and in training with ‘Bio balance’, a group whose approaches aim to improve the health of people with various neuropsychiatric ailments including autism, depression and schizophrenia. Dr Bode has lectured for ACNEM, Mindd, Cancer Care Centre, Chronic fatigue association and Autism SA. He has worked as a Director, an Integrative General Practitioner in the Adelaide Hills location of Stirling for many years.
