Mindsip insights from this episode:
Choose Genexa for cleaner pharmaceuticals without harmful additives
The brand Genexa makes common pharmaceuticals without the inflammatory food dyes, colorings, and additives found in most over-the-counter medications.
Address physiological inflammation to reduce psychological stress
A functional medicine practitioner estimates that 80% of inflammation is physiological, which in turn creates the energy deficit that leads to psychological stress.
Protect endothelial glycocalyx with Arteriosil HP
A product called Arteriosil HP is designed to protect the endothelial glycocalyx, the ultra-thin lining of your 60,000 miles of blood vessels.
Detoxify your environment to reduce inflammatory load
The easiest and most impactful place to start reducing your inflammatory load is by detoxifying your environment, such as your cleaning and self-care products.
Address toxins to alleviate joint pain
Muscle and joint inflammation is thought to be caused more by toxins (70%) than by a direct immune response (30%).
Test complete hormone panel for optimal health insights
A comprehensive hormone panel should test for testosterone, estrogen, progesterone, DHEA, and an advanced thyroid panel including T4, T3, reverse T3, TSH, and antibodies.
Utilize filtered urine for extreme allergy relief
Injecting your own filtered urine can provide profound relief from severe allergies by causing your body to create antibodies against its own allergy-causing antibodies.
Release food stress to reduce inflammation
The worry, guilt, and stress associated with your food choices can be more inflammatory and harmful to your body than occasionally eating the 'bad' food itself.
Combat decision fatigue to reduce stress and inflammation
Indecisiveness, even about small things, can be a major driver of stress and chronic inflammation in your body.
