Well Being Radio With Brian Sanderoff

On this show I’m going to talk about probiotics. For years we have been addressing the vital importance of keeping the good bacteria in the gut balanced… especially in the areas of immune function and gut function. There is an emerging catalog of studies and information pointing to the good bacteria playing important roles with mood, sleep, heart health, hormonal balance and even weight loss. I am going to go over the basics and then discuss these newer understandings and their ramifications. I will also offer a radio special on our favorite probiotic!

On this show I am going to spend the hour talking about Migraine Headaches. If you, or someone you know, suffers from chronic migraines, then this information will help you understand why you are getting them, and also understand what to do to keep them from happening in the first place, as opposed to just treating the pain once they happen. Don't miss out on another opportunity to fix a problem instead of just turning the volume down.

This week we talk about how stress, and how your body responds to it, is ultimately a life-preserving mechanism. However, you were not designed to be exposed to chronic, un-ending stress. The results of that only works to expose every genetic weakness that you have.

With Memorial Day upon us, the beginning of the summer season more time spent outdoors, and traveling. On today's show I will discuss the various ways that traveling can challenge our systems and what to do about it. I will also talk about exposure to the sun, and what really causes serious skin cancers like melanoma.

On this podcast show I’m going to talk about two specific nutrients that are under appreciated and very, very important… Vitamin K and Iodine. There are reasons why we don’t get enough of either one of these nutrients in our diet, and the result can be devastating for thyroid function, immune function, cardiovascular health, the strength of your bones… and much more. And, as always, I offer a “radio special” that you can only know about by listening!

Anyone concerned about cholesterol? Did you know that nearly half the people going into the emergency room having a heart attack have had “normal” cholesterol their entire lives? Our medical pursuit of lowering cholesterol has been a mistake from the beginning! On this show I’m going to share the truth about why your body makes cholesterol, why lowering your cholesterol is likely counterproductive in regards to quality of life and longevity, and how to properly evaluate whether your cholesterol is a problem at all. Also, I will share the exact list of blood tests you need to best predict your heart future.

Anyone suffering from reflux or heartburn or GERD? I know this is a common problem – you can’t watch primetime television without seeing a ton of commercials for “the magic purple pill” or whatever. On this episode, I’m going to explain to you how medicine asked the wrong question when it comes to reflux issues. And that is why the answer that they came up with, cutting acid production in the stomach, probably causes more problems, and doesn’t really fix the reflux. Don’t miss this critical episode of Well Being!

The pollen counts are up across the country, so on this podcast I’m going to start off the show talking about allergies and the more natural things that you can do to avoid and treat allergy symptoms.  And then, it’s all up to you – whatever you want to talk about!

This episode is all about Osteoporosis. I have said many times that regular medicine is often guilty of asking the wrong question – and the thinning of bones is a classic example of this. Medicine asked, “what can we can do to slow the breakdown of bone?” This was the wrong question, and the result has been close to disastrous in, 1) not really fixing the problem and, 2) causing other problems with the supposed treatments. So this show is all about educating you about what are the 3 areas of concern in preventing and treating Osteoporosis, and how to make changes in all 3 areas!

On this show I’m going to share my thoughts and experience about healthy and lasting weight loss.  I am not a fan of “going on a diet” because inherently, if you go on a diet, that means that at some point you will go off of that diet too.  What I want to do is to help you forge a new relationship with food – that is the kind of help that will last a lifetime. I will dispel the myths that the fad diets use to prey upon you, and I will share a few pearls of wisdom that will help you lose weight, and more importantly lose fat, that can last a lifetime!

On this show I’m going to offer an “open show” where I just answer questions from the listeners. I have a few things on my mind to talk about, including trying to understand, and accept, a new paradigm in medicine and aging. I was thinking about my Mom recently turning 90, and the way that she, and her generation, thinks about doctors and medicine. So I’m going to discuss this a bit, as well as how the pharmaceutical companies manipulate statistical data to make it look like their medicines are far more effective than they are. And hopefully you’ll have a few other things on your minds to discuss too!

On today’s show I’m going to talk about Leaky Gut Syndrome. This is a condition that most of us have at least some degree of – and the results are potentially devastating. I’ll talk about why it happens, the kinds of health conditions that show up because of it, why regular medicine doesn’t even recognize it (much less offer any solutions) and the steps that you need to take to reverse it and save yourself a lifetime of suffering. And, of course… I will be happy to take your calls as well.

On today’s show I’m going to talk about The Essential Six – these are the 6 supplements or systems in the body that everyone needs to put attention towards.  I get asked all of the time what are the supplements that I take; the implication being that because I’m the expert I must take the really important ones.  I promise you that this is the most vital information you will need if you want to age more gracefully.  The show will be pre-recorded, so no live calls this week.
