Beginner’s Guide to Continuous Glucose Monitors (CGMs) | Molly Downey @ NutriSense

For years, I had wanted to test out CGM technology to better understand how my unique body responds to specific foods, drinks, and lifestyle habits. What if your daily "health" habits are actually setting you back? Blood glucose is one powerful metric that can help you make optimal decisions.
The problem? Back then, I got quoted $1,500 for a 90-day experiment. I passed. The cost has dropped significantly. I jumped at the chance to test the top CGM services at the beginning of 2021, and walked away with surprising findings. So I had to get a member of their team on the show to talk about this futuristic technology.
Meet our guest
Molly Downey, RDN, LDN is a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN), Licensed Dietitian/Nutritionist (LDN) who specializes in glucose control, metabolism, and weight loss. She graduated from Indiana University-Bloomington and currently works as a dietitian at NutriSense, a health technology company that leverages continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) as a way to optimize diet, health, and overall wellbeing.

Hundreds of Muscles You Didn’t Know to Train | Karese Laguerre @ The Myo Spot

I've never thought much about my facial muscles. As you'll learn today, that's a big mistake. Hundreds of muscles between your shoulders and head keep you alive and functioning well.
Just like we train major muscle groups with weight lifting, running, and sports, so should we train the smaller ones we use automatically.
Meet our guest
Karese Laguerre is a Registered Dental Hygienist. She graduated from the University of Medicine and Dentistry NJ. As a mother of four, Karese actively sought solutions to symptoms her kids experienced.
Such as snoring, wetting the bed until age 9, sleepwalking, frequent congestion, allergies, inability to breastfeed, diagnosis with ADHD, and sensory processing issues. She discovered a rarely discussed missing link, studied under Sandra Holtzman, and became an Orofacial Myologist.
Later, Karese founded The Myo Spot where she helps others improve their sleep, health, and facial aesthetics using a special type of training.

Your Diet Needs Medicinal Mushrooms (Benefits, Uses, & Science) | Dr. Mason Bresett @ Real Mushrooms

When I began researching natural nootropics and adaptogens, mushrooms continued to come up. I first blended Lion's mane into my MCT oil-laced coffee. Functional, adaptogenic mushrooms.
Aside from a tasty addition to your meals, mushroom extracts act as adaptogens to bring the body back into balance and promote high performance. So I sought a guest to explain the science of mushrooms in everyday language.
Meet our guest
Dr. Mason Bresett, ND, studied human movement and then naturopathic medicine at the Boucher Institute of Naturopathic Medicine (BINM). His career has focused on sports medicine, chronic illness, immune disorders, HIV, and mental health.
Mason worked on the St. Francis Herb Farm, which inspired a thorough analysis into herbal medicine where he later led research studies and taught at the BINM herb club.
While immersed in herbal medicine research, Mason gravitated toward adaptogenic botanicals. He has a general family naturopathic practice in Sarnia, Ontario, called The Health Creation Lab. Mason's patients benefit from medicinal mushrooms, herbal medicine, hydrotherapy, acupuncture, nutrition, and mind-body medicine.
Mason leads the Real Mushrooms Practitioners education group, where he provides medical doctors, naturopathic doctors, herbalists, pharmacists, and chiropractors with the latest research. He's also working with medicinal doctors and oncologists to set up research studies using medicinal mushroom extracts.
