Ep 234: The Importance of Vitamin D and Sunlight
In this episode of Beyond the Basics Health Academy, Dr. Meaghan discusses the need for sunlight. This conversation stems not only from really getting into the research of the benefits of Vitamin D, but also the conversation that we need to have that it is vital to get enough sunlight exposure. Dr. Meaghan talks throughout the podcast about the vital role of vitamin D and the need for sunlight exposure. Vitamin D is an essential fat-soluble vitamin that plays a crucial role in maintaining calcium balance, promoting bone health, preventing falls and fractures, and supporting overall well-being. However, the significance of vitamin D extends far beyond bone health, with research linking it to various conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, metabolic syndrome, cancer, autoimmune and infectious diseases, among others. 25-Vitamin D deficiency has risen significantly in recent times and is higher in certain populations and is associated with increased mortality rates, infections, and a range of diseases. Mounting evidence suggests that vitamin D deficiency may be linked to chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease and cancer. We explore the findings of a study that analyzed vitamin D levels in the US population, revealing a high prevalence of deficiency, particularly among minority groups. These findings underline the importance of maintaining healthy vitamin D levels. The episode emphasizes the significance of sunlight exposure in vitamin D synthesis, noting that about 50% to 90% of vitamin D is absorbed through the skin via sunlight. However, several factors, including season, time of day, latitude, altitude, air pollution, and skin pigmentation, influence sun-induced vitamin D synthesis. We address the need for sensible sun exposure recommendations, advocating for approximately 20 minutes of daily sunshine with over 40% of the skin exposed. Dr Meaghan also explores recent research from the University of South Australia, which establishes a strong association between vitamin D deficiency and premature death and that WHO states that 340,000 Americans die each year due to not enough sun exposure. Join us in this episode of Beyond the Basics Health Academy to gain valuable insights into the vital role of vitamin D and the importance of embracing sunlight exposure for overall health and well-being.

The personâs head may feel hot while the rest of the body is cold, and problems can be worse near midnight. The nose often feels stopped up, and the person may sneeze repeatedly, without relief. White, thick, burning mucus may be produced. Belladonna This remedy relieves high fever of sudden onset with sweating. Euphrasia Red, watery, irritated eyes, frequent sneezing, and a mild, clear nasal discharge suggests a need for this remedy. The person may cough from irritation and from phlegm collecting in the throat. Symptoms can be worse at night, and the person tends to feel better from eating and lying down. Natrum muriaticum Colds with clear nasal discharge like egg-white, sneezing (which is often worse in the morning), headache, and a diminished sense of smell or taste may respond to this remedy. The person may develop cold sores around the mouth, and the lips can be chapped and cracked. Nux vomica This relieves spasmodic sneezing in the morning, with a dry nose during the night. Pulsatilla This remedy relieves non-irritant yellowish nasal discharge with a dry nose at night that becomes runny during the day, and loss of smell and taste. Other Remedies Aconitum napellus This remedy relieves high fever of sudden onset, with a hot face and dry skin, especially after exposure to intense cold. Allium cepa This relieves spasmodic sneezing and runny nose with an irritating, watery discharge, improved by fresh air. Baryta carbonica This remedy is indicated for people who frequently catch colds from getting chilled. A runny nose and swollen upper lip, swollen lymph nodes, tonsils, and adenoids are typical symptoms. This remedy is often helpful to children who are bashful and slow to develop. Dulcamara When a person comes down with a cold after getting wet and chilled, or if colds come on when the weather changes, this remedy should come to mind. A stopped-up nose and face pain are likely. A person who needs Dulcamara also tends to have allergies. Ferrum phosphoricum This remedy relieves low-grade fever with weakness and tendency to nosebleeds and earaches. Gelsemium Lethargy and aching, with headache and droopy eyes, often indicate this remedy. Fever and chills run up and down the spine, and heat or pressure may be felt in the face and nose. A person who needs Gelsemium often trembles and is shaky, or feels extremely dull. This remedy is often helpful for colds that come on in hot weather. Hydrastis canadensis This remedy relieves thick nasal discharge that irritates the throat. Kali bichromicum This helps relieve thick, greenish, irritating nasal discharge. Kali iodatum This remedy relieves runny nose with acrid watery discharge, with pain at the base of the nose. Kali muriaticum This helps relieve ear congestion with cracking sounds in the ear, worsened by the change in pressure. Mercurius solubilis A person who needs this remedy is extremely sensitive to temperatures, and experiences night sweats and drooling during sleep. Swollen lymph nodes and bad breath are other indications. The personâs nose may feel raw, and the tonsils or ears often become infected. Phosphorus A person whose colds go easily to the chest often responds to this remedy. One nostril may be blocked while the other runs. Hoarseness, laryngitis, and nosebleeds are other likely symptoms. The person often is thirsty for cold drinks and feels better from massage. People who need this remedy often feel weak, âspaced out,â and anxious or fearful when ill. Rhus toxicodendron If a cold begins with stiffness and body aches, especially during cool damp weather or weather changes, and leads to nasal congestion or sore throat, this remedy should come to mind. The person feels extremely restless and often paces or fidget. Warmth and motion bring relief, both physically and mentally. Sulphur iodatum This remedy relieves lingering symptoms (cough, nasal congestion) after a severe cold or flu.

Ep. 219 - A Mindful Approach to Social Issues with Rhonda Magee

Ep. 219 - A Mindful Approach to Social Issues with Rhonda Magee
âWe have so much capacity to meet the challenges of our time with strength and wisdom,â says Rhonda Magee, law professor and author of The Inner Work of Racial Justice. Despite growing up as a black woman in America during the civil rights era, Rhonda was always awed by her grandmotherâs ability to remain optimistic in the face of adversity. Inspired by her grandmotherâs spirit, Rhonda began to implement similar practices into her own life, including mindfulness. As a law professor and author, Rhonda uses the practice of mindfulness to challenge the system and provide solutions on how to tackle social issues. According to Rhonda, in a society where bias, racism, and systemic injustices are deeply ingrained, healing is a continuous process. Because conflict causes mass division, most peopleâs instincts are to find safety among people who are similar and place the blame on others. In her book, Rhonda highlights inner work as an essential component to problem solving. Through the practice of mindfulness, Rhonda explains that we are able to increase our emotional intelligence and recognize our own biases because we are given space to be attentive to our thoughts and feelings. After we have dismantled our own barriers, we can heal generational traumas and connect with people of all backgrounds. Tune into this weekâs episode of Beyond the Basics Health Academy to understand why Rhonda Magee believes mindfulness is the roadmap to a more peaceful world. Learn how to implement daily doses of mindfulness in order to calm your fears and allow you to exercise the highest level of compassion towards yourself and others. Quotes ⢠âWe don't want to take all our biases about what we know into the world because learning opportunities are great opportunities to integrate what we know with what others know.â (13:46-13:59) ⢠âWhen we talk about race and racism, the traditional way of learning just bombards us with data, history, statistics, new words and concepts. It's important to have this information and it's important to think about the scholarly ways in which these ideas have been articulated. All those analyses are important to encounter and grapple with, but we're social and emotional and relational human beings in learning spaces.â (14:43-15:27) ⢠âAll of this effort to understand race and racism and to understand any of our challenges is strengthened by being grounded.â (20:55-21:05) ⢠âMindfulness is inviting this ability of growing up into the kinds of human beings who can face our fears, look beneath the rage and create some space and deeper capacity to navigate waters that are choppy.â (35:13-35:44) ⢠"We can resolve our conflicts without violence, but we have to agree to bring some kind of mindfulness to the processes by which we participate in the systems.â (36:36-36:49) ⢠âWe have so much capacity to meet the challenges of our time with strength and wisdom.â (43:03-43:10) BE KIND TO OTHERS, TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF, AND MAKE GOOD CHOICES.

Ep. 217 â Book Club: Divided Mind. Exploring the Mind-Body Connection
Your host Dr. Meaghan Kirschling and special guest Dr. Ron Kirschling are back for another book club episode! In this weekâs book club, Meaghan and Ron break down Divided Mind by John E. Sarno. The book explores the connection between the mind and body and how this inextricable bond impacts our overall health. The author, an orthopedist, believes there are other explanations for psychosomatic physical pain that aren't related to aging. Dr. Sarno explains that these pains are usually induced by repressed, unconscious emotions. He believes that emotions from our past can trigger many diseases such as fibromyalgia. Throughout his years of research, Dr. Sarno has found that continued suffering is related to patientsâ reticence to truly accept the origin of their pain. He draws the conclusion that a more in-depth acknowledgement of our emotions and their source can often alleviate symptoms. Tune into this weekâs episode of Beyond the Basics Health Academy for a detailed summary of Divided Mind. Learn how our minds and bodies are interconnected, why it is important for medicine to focus on wellness rather than illness, and how our emotions play a vital role in our everyday physical experiences. Quotes ⢠âThe real dichotomy we face in health care is whether we are going to concentrate on illness or wellness.â (06:30-6:42) ⢠âWe are really getting into this situation where we are not treating people holistically; instead, we are being conditioned to treat diseases.â (07:54-08:00) ⢠âIn general, if there is something you are trying to resist or there's something you're not dealing with, that will continue to persist.â (23:26- 23:31) ⢠âWhen there is stress and loss of control, we do see an increase in health conditions across the board.â (35:09-35:18) BE KIND TO OTHERS, TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF, AND MAKE GOOD CHOICES.

Ep. 216 - Stem Cells with Dr. David Steenblock
Dr. David Steenblock is one of the worldâs leading stem cell experts, specializing in the treatment of ALS, Cerebral Palsy and a wide range of other degenerative diseases. Over the course of his 40-year career, Dr. Steenblock has centered his practice around regenerative medicine, which focuses on matching therapies and treatments to an individualâs unique biochemical and genetic needs. Dr. Steenblock is particularly renowned for his work with stem cell treatments, and although these treatments are vastly underutilized, he has seen great success in thousands of his patients. While there are many ways that you can retrieve stem cells, Dr. Steenblock prefers to use nutrient dense bone marrow stem cells, which he believes heal the body best. In one of his cases, a patient who had lost their vision entirely regained eyesight a few weeks after treatment. However, despite incredible successes such as this one, Dr. Steenblock still warns his patients about potential setbacks. Something as simple as a small infection can negate all progress that has been made. In order to see the best results, it is essential to follow your doctorâs orders and avoid situations that could potentially cause trauma to your body. Join host Meaghan Kirschling on this weekâs episode of Beyond the Basics Health Academy for a conversation with Dr. David Steenblock about the restorative power of stem cells.

Ep. 215 - Essential Oils for your Health with Dr. Eric Zielinski
âThe chemical structure that chemists and pharmacists get to create the drugs that we use today are from nature. These are the chemicals in plants, these are the essential oilsâ says Dr. Eric Zielinkski, author of The Essential Oil Apothecary. Dr. Zielinski explains that many people are too quick to write off essential oils as pseudoscience, when there is actually an abundance of scientific evidence proving that they are a key contributor to our health and wellbeing. Unfortunately, there has been widespread misinformation regarding essential oils and their proper use in recent years. Because MLMs have sent out thousands of people who, despite being well-intentioned, are not in the medical or aromatherapy fields, essential oils have been largely discredited. However, it is important to recognize that essential oils actually serve as the foundation of most modern-day medicines! Dr. Zielinskiâs mission is to help people explore the ways in which essential oils can alleviate symptoms of everything from stress to inflammation to chronic diseases and more to better their day-to-day lives. Tune into this weekâs episode of Beyond the Basics Health Academy for a conversation with Dr. Eric Zielinski about the healing powers contained within essential oils.

Ep. 214 - Digestive Health with Cathy Moore
âLet food be your medicine,â says Cathy Moore, PA-C, a Physicianâs Assistant at One Agora Integrative Health. Cathy explains that many of us have started treating food as a passing need rather than a vital fuel. We often eat on the go and may not even remember what we ate for lunch by the time weâre eating dinner! This approach critically disrupts our gut health, since we arenât taking the time to rest and digest before, during and after each meal. Rather than rushing through meals, Cathy suggests that we instead be intentional about what we eat and how we eat it. By taking deep breaths before starting a meal, for example, we activate our parasympathetic nervous system, prepping our bodies to better digest our food. An increase in mindfulness around food also allows us to establish a better relationship with what weâre eating, promoting an attitude of gratefulness rather than the fear that so often surrounds restrictive diets. Tune into this weekâs episode of Beyond the Basics Health Academy for a conversation with Cathy Moore about digestive health. Learn about the differences between healthy and harmful bacteria, the strategies you can use to retrain your taste buds, and how best to balance between your emotional and nutritional worlds. Improving your gut health is not an impossible feat! Join Cathy and host Meaghan Kirschling for some simple steps you can take to kickstart the journey towards a balanced microbiome. Quotes ⢠âIf youâre going to sit down for a meal, itâs important to take some time and look at your plate, just connect and be intentional with what youâre eating instead of eating emotionally. Because most of us are eating out of emotional needs that havenât been met. So, when youâre intentional with what youâre eating, youâre looking at your plate, youâre sending gratitude and thankfulness into those foods, which really actually brings good frequencies into that food and helps with the structure of the food.â (4:25-4:52) ⢠âI think every meal is a chance to heal the body. Itâs either that food is going to bring life-giving frequencies and health and life into our body or itâs going to bring cellular death.â (5:39-5:47) ⢠âWe have the good, healthy bacteria thatâs really necessary to be able to regulate and govern over our immune system function. And you want to have plenty of whatâs called acromancia. I call them the ABCs: acromancia, bifidobacterium, and clostridia. Those are our main healthy, good bacteria that we really need in balance, and when those have too much, then that causes problems, but when thereâs not enough, the immune system is really suppressed and low.â (18:48-19:17) ⢠âOftentimes, patients will feel like, âGosh, Iâm just anxious all the time. Iâm so nervous.â And you think about...whatâs going on in their brain, when actually we should be thinking, âWhatâs going on in their gut?ââ (22:33-22:45) ⢠âLet food be your medicine.â (26:46-26:48) Links Book a session with Cathy: BE KIND TO OTHERS, TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF, AND MAKE GOOD CHOICES.

Ep. 213 - Happiness Power with Edmund McCormick
âThe average person checks their cellphone 160 times a day,â says Edmund McCormick, author of Happiness Power: How to unleash your power and live a more joyful life. âIf you didnât have a cellphone, what would you do with those 160 moments?â Edmund explains to our listeners that he actually got rid of his cellphone a few years back, after noticing how much time the people around him were spending on their devices, completely unaware of their surroundings. Now, he is only reachable by landline and much happier because of it! Edmund decided to do a deeper dive into the power of happiness after reading the 2020 World Happiness Report, which indicates that, on average, US citizens are the least happy theyâve been in 20 years. This finding piqued Edmundâs interest, and he ultimately wrote a book detailing his findings, including 50 powers that typically accompany an increase in happiness. Tune into this weekâs episode of Beyond the Basics Health Academy for a conversation with Edmund about happiness and how to find it. Learn about the many powers that come with happiness, how to cultivate a glass-half-full mentality, and why self-love and positive self-talk are key to finding long-term contentment. Quotes ⢠âHappiness gives us things that people who are not happy donât have. And thatâs where the title Happiness Power came from because thereâs a great deal of power if you are happy and content in life. Those that are happier tend to earn more money, they tend to get promotions, they tend to have a greater circle of friends, and so on.â (2:23-2:51) ⢠âI wound up with the conclusion that you really canât find happiness directly. It will elude youâŚ.How then do you find happiness? You find it indirectly. You find it by practicing self-kindness, by looking for your purpose in life...having more family and friends and building that circle builds our happiness, showing gratitude even for the smallest things increases our happiness, and also giving increases happiness.â (3:10-4:09) ⢠âThe average person checks his cellphone 160 times a day. If you didnât have a cellphone, what would you do with those 160 moments?â (8:17-8:25) ⢠âItâs not the material things that make you happy. Itâs how you feel about the material thingsâŚ.You could be acquiring the best automobile and then after a week or two the smell wears away and you think, âWhatâs next?â Or you could be getting a raise, and youâre so excited about that raise, and then a month later, gee, you deserve another one. So, itâs your mindset thatâs creating your happiness, itâs whatâs inside you.â (20:58-21:47) ⢠âUse a mantra, meaning repeating to yourself the same few positive words about yourselfâŚ.Just take 45 seconds to a minute to do that when you get up in the morning or if youâre feeling a little down in the afternoon. Just say it to yourself, donât say it outloud, and you will find that in several weeks, youâre going to see that the light gets brighter, the curtain lifts, and things look better! All of a sudden, that half empty glass is now looking like itâs half full.â (29:02-29:55) Links Link to Edmundâs book Happiness Power: BE KIND TO OTHERS, TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF, AND MAKE GOOD CHOICES.
