Gluten/Casein Sensitivity: Brain Function Deterioration

Brain Function problems show on SPECT imaging downstream from gluten/casein sensitivity. Some can appear psychotic, as we have witness in our CorePsych office -and as reported in the Annals of Internal Medicine in that previous post.

This interview, over from YouTube, is my first attempt at transfer of interesting video documentation. I have two more short celiac instructional videos from YouTube in my Celiac/Casein Playlist there and will be sending you personal vlogs [video logs] on my own review of brain and body functional matters soon.

And, by the way, you can drag your cursor across the bottom of the screen while the video is on, and click on either of the other two short videos on my Gluten/Casein list. While just sitting on this page you can see all three:

1. this first video,
2. -then another: a woman from Australia talking about her celiac condition,
3. -and then: a more specific medical review of the pathology so you can see what happens directly to the gut.

This should be interesting!

Adrenal Fatigue: New Findings

If you think you understand burnout take a listen to this interview. Interestingly, Wikipedia thinks it's just a psychological term...

In this program I again interview Nat Jones, RPh, our compounding pharmacist consultant who helps with low impact bioidentical hormone supplementation when the adrenal fatigue [also called hypoadrenia] evidence is compelling.

Rest reassured that we don't chase down every person suffering from various forms of burnout with simple cortisol platitudes. Some of the people we describe in this interview have simply failed every other strategy, and have come to my office labeled as "lazy," or [some think this is funny} a "head job."

In this program we talk about a person many never knew suffered from adrenal fatigue: JFK, take a look at this commentary about Kennedy.

-And we bring in many examples of others with high stress jobs. -Hopefully the military PTSD experts will listen up to this program as many coming back from Iraq won't be able to recover from PTSD with their adrenals in the complete tank.

Listen up and send in your comments.

Thanks for joining us.

Essential Fatty Acids: Brain and Metabolic Problems

Audio Overview: Essential Fatty Acids at CorePsychPodcast

This short audio overview some of the basics on Essential Fatty Acids [EFAs] as I interview Camille Gallinger, CN a nutritionist at CorePsych. EFAs cover much brain territory, and this is the first of four reviews on various healthy fatty acids.

-Program includes brief notes on the good fats and why they are good for you.
-Notes also on "pharmaceutical grade" Omega 3 fatty acids,
-phospholipids,
-fish oil in general, and
-why EFAs are important to review
-- if you have depression, thinking issues, dementia, or lack of motivation... all symptoms of fatty acid imbalance.

And don't forget the basic Brain-Building Nutrition: How Dietary Fats and Oils Affect Mental, Physical, and Emotional Intelligence, by Michael Schmidt

We also discuss how we measure these levels with blood tests and the Comprehensive Metabolic Panel if symptoms encourage more careful review.
