Radio Naturopath Episode 394: 2023 CNPA Conference: Allergies, Psoriasis, Acne, mTOR and Aging, MK-4 for Osteoporosis

This week, I am fresh from the 2023 Connecticut  Naturopathic Physician's Association Conference (CNPA). My brain is full and I'm beat! But now I know more and feel inspired, so here's a little bit of what I learned. It'll likely take a few shows to get through the information! This week: Todd Borne and allergies; Eugene Zampieron and psoriasis; Peter Bongiorno and mTOR and aging. Plus, MK-4 is the only form of Vitamin K2 studied to both increase bone density and prevent fractures. Thanks, John Neustadt!

Radio Naturopath Episode 353: More Natural Skin Care, Especially Shea Butter

So we started off talking about Convoy Day. And then moved on to something people might REALLY be interested in, more natural skin care! I think the hands, and legs, and feet, and arms down winner is shea butter. It's anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, moisturizing, imparts moisture without making you greasy, helps with normal cell differentiation, and contains Vitamins A, E, and folic acid. What CAN'T it do? I talk about a lot of other items but I think shea butter is the all-around winner! Listen for lots more. Next week we'll talk about a few things that are BAD for your skin, and how to eat to promote healthy skin. And then we'll move on to bursitis!
