Chronic patients are by their nature complex. And while they do not say it out loud, patients (and practitioners) want a silver bullet, but we know who those work for most of the time. We talked about it here: So we need to treat complex, chronic patients at multiple levels. That is why TURMERIC PLUS has both PHYTOSOMAL Curcumin AND Boswellia in it. That is why META-BOOST has Alpha…
Last week I introduced the new product we are eagerly awaiting: This is a double whammy that really works. The reason it works is all tied up with the PHYTOSOME which delivers it to the BLOOD and then into CELL (where we want it). But more than that, it is because we are stacking therapeutics. Whenever I am treating a chronically unwell person, who has seen many other practitioners, it is…
If anyone asks you as a parent who your favourite child is, we all know the correct answer is you don’t have one, you love them all equally. Buuuuuuut, you know, love is a multifaceted thing, it comes in different shapes and sizes. I love all our supplements in our bespoke neuro-mechanical nutrition range, but there is a pair coming to you soon, that are…
Last year we talked about hypermobility spectrum disorder (HSD) and Ehlers Danlos syndrome (EDS) in two newsletters. Firstly, about how common gluten sensitivity is in these patients. ???? https://academyofchiropracticnutrition.com/eds-and-histamine/ And, into histamine and collagen ???? And if you didn’t know, POTS (postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome) and HSD/EDS are highly linked. From POTS UK Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder (HSD) and hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (hEDS) are commonly associated…
This week we have three things to really get excited about: Firstly, I turned 45 this week, and it was great to just hang out with my whole lovely family, what an absolute treat. 45 years old is scary for some, but not for me as I “identify” as 34, so overall I feel good. Plus my ever magnificent wife bought me a meat mop…
Like many of you, I see patients in the longer term for a variety of reasons. Health and wellness through to pain relief for intractable issues. One such patient I have seen for nearly a decade, has AS, not active anymore but it sure left him stiff. As a result I have seen him every 6 weeks for many years, and more recently in 2023…
If there is one piece of public health messaging that went into our brains and stayed there, it is: Fruit and veg – 5 a day. And for good reason. They contain a good many nutrients we need, albeit not the highest amounts. Those are reserved for animal products, especially organs, meat and dairy. Fruit and vegetables can be a great source of micronutrients, like…
There are not many things that you can make fun of directly or laugh at these days, but one thing that still seems to be an easy and acceptable target is teenage boys’ behaviour. They suddenly grow inches and become wildly clumsy, the voice breaks but is still occasionally squeaky, the skin may suddenly break out into acne. And then the desire for sex starts….
This week’s newsletter, which my first since we returned from a long break in USA with my wife’s sisters and nieces is a mish-mash of awesome info. What a time we had, we popped to the white house. Sadly, Biden was already in bed and Harris doesn’t do interviews, probably best as Floyd finally showed his political hand in the gift shop. #ultraMAGA Can you imagine…
When I was a new and shiny graduate from the AECC maybe less than five years old, if patients told me the GP had diagnosed them with gout, I would have accepted it, no questions asked. But I learned that it’s always a good idea to actually check the symptoms fit the diagnosis and to make sure a blood test has actually been done to…
