Radio Naturopath Episode 480: Find Your Max Heart Rate, More Help for Osteoarthritis

220-your age is NOT the best way to go! The Norwegian University of Science and Technology has figured out a way to estimate your ideal max heart rate that uses your age, weight, gender, and height. I used it and it felt much better than the 185 I was using from five years ago, and was also higher and more useful than 220-my age! I had a great workout using it. Also, we return to help for osteoarthritis: foods, weight loss, exercise and more. Those green lipped mussels!

Radio Naturopath Episode 478: B Complex and Your Stomach, Menopause and More Comfortable Sex!

This week I talked about B vitamins. Sometimes taking specific B vitamins can cause stomach upset, and you have to figure out which ones are bothering you. Sometimes it's best to take a food based vitamin; sometimes a methylated blend; sometimes specific ones separately; and sometimes just get them from food! We help to sort this out. I then went on to discuss something very important to folks of a certain age: how to make sex more comfortable! Hormones, lubes, restorative activities, we lay it on the table. 

Radio Naturopath Episode 476: Green Lipped Mussel, Magnesium, Home Remedies for Osteoarthritis

This week, I talked about green lipped mussel, which has a funny name. It's a little mussel from New Zealand. The omega-3 fats and glycosaminoglycans are balanced in a way that helps joints to heal! I also talked about all the different forms of magnesium and their benefits, and many home remedies to help osteoarthritis. Epsom salts, hot and cold packs, arnica, frankincense, internal stuff and topicals! There's lots you can do! To be continued.
