Radio Naturopath Episode 300: High Intensity Interval Training, Respiratory Allergies 2021

In our continuing quest to inform about exercise, we talked about how high intensity interval training can be helpful. It can increase fat burning during and after exercise, improve insulin sensitivity, lower blood sugar, increase muscle mass, and burn visceral fat. It doesn't have to take a long time, so it's very effiicent! Anyone can do it if they find an intensity level that works for them.

The pollen is flying, so we did a review of respiratory allergies and how to help them. It's time for neti-pots, salt water, bioflavonoids, nettles, and lots of other natural help. Next (live) week we'll talk about asthma!

Radio Naturopath Episode 251: Coronavirus: Basic Supplements and Possible Drug Therapies, Lifestyle Changes, Kindness

This week, I focused on the basic supplements that are thought to be helpful, emphasizing that there is no one thing that has been definitively proven to eradicate SARS-CoV-2. We are using common sense with things that work for viruses in general. The same goes for the use of pharmaceuticals, although there are some clinical trials on hydroxychloroquine, azithromycin, and a new drug called APNO1. It's still necessary to wash, rest, and physically distance. 

I also discussed the importance of exercise, clean eating, and cleaning the nose, throat, and of course hands. I finished with the importance of kindness at this time.
