Well Being Radio With Brian Sanderoff

Today I’m going to discuss a sad subject – Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD).  It’s the time of year when certain folks start having issues with depression, etc.  I’ll talk about the things that can be done to treat this naturally!

This week I'm talking about ketogenic diets and the health benefits of getting into ketosis. I'll also be discussing an interesting study that came accross my desk this week.

This episode I take a look at what have been termed “thought viruses”, how they apply to our interaction with medicine and how our health gets affected. I’ll also talk through a few interesting tidbits that have crossed my desk this week.

On today’s show, I’m going to share what happens to be on my mind right now, including some interesting studies that I’ve seen. Some topics will include things that can disrupt thyroid function, the connection between insulin and dopamine (why we crave those carbs), and what may be behind bad breath. I’m also fresh off my “men’s work” weekend, so I’ll share a little about that too!

Why is it that in medicine, when it comes to brain chemistry imbalances, we use a pretty unscientific method of “trial-and-error” to fix things for folks with depression, anxiety, sleep issues, OCD, etc? Did you know that there is specific urine testing that can be done to help identify imbalances, and how all of the various brain chemicals interplay with each other? I’ll talk about that and more on today’s radio show, that will also be video streamed live on FaceBook for the first time!  

Ever wonder where your emotions are coming from? If you’re like me, then you’ve been trained to fear uncomfortable or problem-causing emotions, and to keep them inside. Or maybe you have learned to express them in acceptable ways. But where do they come from in the first place? And what is their purpose? Unraveling this mystery is what today’s show is all about, with the help of Randi Botnick, Clinical Hypnotherapist and Amazing Energy Healer (and my wife!)

I’ve seen a ton of interesting research cross my desk over the past few seeks – so I’m going to review all of it, including talking about Urinary Tract Infections, Traumatic Brain Injuries and Asthma.

The Essential 6 is finally here, and I'm very excited to present all of the information about what it is how and how to get it!  You can be the first on your block to have it... and get a jump on getting your genes to express themselves in the most positive way possible!

Many of you strive to live your lives in as healthy a manner as possible… eating organically, taking supplements, getting exercise and sleep. But what kind of cookware do you use?? Making the wrong decision here might have serious effects on your health without you realizing it. On today’s show, I’m going to go over the various options. I’m also going to review some interesting studies, including one discussing why Amish kids don’t suffer from asthma the way that other kids do.

It’s been a while since I’ve been able to give you a proper science update – so I’m going to review some new studies in regard to fish oil and vitamin D, two pieces of The Essential 6.  I’m also going to talk about natural solutions to dealing with low testosterone levels – so-called “Low-T.”  I also found an interesting article about Picky Eating in Childhood – so I wanted to discuss some unappreciated factors contributing to this problem… and the ramifications of not fixing this issue early on.

I’m going mainstream media today on the show, talking about an article from yesterday’s Washington Post about “America’s Other Drug Problem: Giving the elderly too many prescriptions” and also an article from The New Yorker in July about a new scientific understanding of the importance of Breast-Feeding.  There’s a brand new medical food that takes advantage of this information that would be great for any gut issue, including Crohn’s, IBS, Colitis, Celiac or even GERD.

Consumer Reports did a hatchet job on the supplement industry.  I’ll try to calmly rebut the points they are making.  Also, the Zika Virus is on people’s minds, so I’ll talk about that a bit too.

It’s my BIRTHDAY!! And now that I’m 55 years old, I’m going to take some time on the show to reflect about the aging process and how we can age better, or differently, or more gracefully.  And to help me with that, I’ll solicit the help of the amazing energy healer (and my wife) Randi Botnick.

The Placebo Effect – is it a good thing or a bad thing? That’s what I’m going to explore on the show today, with the help of my good friend, and fellow practitioner, Rob Satriano. I’ll also share some new information that has crossed my desk over the past few weeks.

On today’s show, I’m going to share with you some ridiculous stories that I’ve heard about from various patients over the years about what their MD’s have told them or recommended for them concerning prescription medicines and supplements. From my perspective, if you’ve ever heard these things from your doctor, it’s time to get a new doctor! I’ll also share some new information that has crossed my desk over the past few weeks

Today I’m going to discuss one of my favorite topics – Men’s Work. Not that this is only for the men in the audience. Ladies, don’t you want the men in your lives to be more authentic, expressive and present? If so, then listen in and encourage their participation. There’s a “process” that I’ve been involved with for years now, called “The Grail” – and with the help of one of my Grail Brothers, we are going to attempt to describe this work in words. There is a Grail event coming up in October in Austin, TX, that still has space available for men who are interested in the truly heroic quest to know themselves better!

Not that I want you to sleep through the show, but today I’m going to talk about the importance of sleep, and how to address the various sleep problems that seem to plague us. And as I always love to do, I’m also going to review some interesting tidbits that have crossed my desk in the past few weeks.

What are The Essential 6? Regular listeners might be able to recite some of them; if you’re new to the show, maybe not. Because I see them as truly Essential I’m going to review them again, and why they are so vital to your ability to age more gracefully. And as I always love to do, I’m also going to review some interesting tidbits that have crossed my desk in the past few weeks.

Hidden Food Sensitivities are on the menu for today’s show. Dairy and Gluten intolerances are quickly becoming more accepted and understood. But what about Histamine and Salicylates? These are fairly common culprits that most people aren’t even aware of – or the foods that contain them – and avoiding them might just make a nagging problem go away.

What is “Holistic Physical Therapy” and how does it differ from regular PT? That’s the question I’m going to tackle on today’s show, and I’m going to enlist the help of Rob Satriano, holistic physical therapist that practices in my healing center. Feel free to join in!
