Join hosts , The Natural Nurse & DrZ, as they explore some of the most powerful natural treatments for digestive ailments.
Digestive concerns are one of the top issues that initiate both in office calls to physicians and over-the-counter sales of self-help medicines.
In fact, heartburn, GERD, gas ,bloating, constipation, diarrhea, and even more serious conditions such as colitis and Crohn's disease are so common in the western developed world, that many mainstream prescription medicines have become Over the counter [ OTC] and are used by millions of people at their peril, as they have a litany of side effects and drug nutrient depletions.
For example, allopathic treatment of GERD/ heartburn requires patients to be put on a cocktail of proton pump inhibitors and Histamine blocking pharmaceuticals for lengthy periods to block excess acid when in fact, patients have an overproduction of too weak acid, and have chronic hiatal hernias. The Standard American diet,{SAD} is devoid of many nutrients, and the use of these pharmaceuticals leads to gastroparesis, or the food remaining in the stomach for too long…. fermenting, causing gas and bloating, and feeding negative stomach intestinal flora.
Natural medicines and TCM [the ancient Chinese system of medicine] have developed effective, non-toxic treatments that get to the root cause of these conditions. For instance, a naturopathic physician Fletcher (1800s ) had his patients simply take bitter herbs, chew their food to liquid, take time with their meals, and cured 90% of these all digestive conditions!!
In addition, there are a host of other effective treatments that will be discussed in the program such as digestive tonic herbs,carminatives, aperitifs, homeopathics, traditional Chinese medicine, enzymes,and other supplements which can Aid patients in the treatment of these acute and chronic digestive concerns.

In this edition of the Natural nurse and Doctor Z, the hosts share their expertise on the underlying causes and treatment of osteopenia and osteoporosis. Dr Z and The Natural Nurse have published peer reviewed articles on the subject, which offers hope to those afflicted who choose not to use pharmacuetical conventional treatments.
Bone health is actually multifactorial and involves inflammation, malabsorption, toxicity, and endocrine disregulation. This imbalance leads to collagen degradation, and activation of the osteoclasts [cells that destroy and remodel bone] versus the osteoblasts [cells which build new bone]. The result is porous bone which increases risk of fracture and frailty. We will then discuss the naturopathic holistic model, which includes botanical medicine, nutrition,detoxification,fixing absorption,and interesting Physical medicine techniques like whole body vibration and Yoga.

Dr. Friedemann Schaub, MD, PhD, has spent over 20 years teaching people how to rid themselves of anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem and improve their mental health. By learning how to master the subconscious we can flip those self-sabotaging habits with his six keys to self-empowerment. His methods have the backing of scientific research. Dr. Friedemann believes that authenticity and confidence can be yours if you learn empowerment solutions, which he explains in his book, The Empowerment Solution: Six Keys to Unlocking Your Full Potential with the Subconscious Mind.
Dealing with anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem can feel like a never-ending battle. But what if we told you that your own survival patterns might be the real culprits holding you back? Ever questioned why you play it safe, constantly procrastinate, or bend over backward for others' approval? These are survival tactics ingrained in our subconscious to shield us from rejection, failure, and pain.

So many diseases have been linked to toxicity and the LOADING THEORY, but this scientifically verified link is often ignored in mainstream medicine. Recent research on Diabetes shows that it may be closely related to the bodies toxic burden of heavy metals ! https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34369715/ and POPS (persistent organic pollutants) https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7238916/pdf/imcj-19-16.pdf

There are so many ‘trendy ways’ and “faddish posts” and “influencers” which discuss detoxification on the internet, that listeners and readers are often misinformed, and can do HARM if not adequately evaluated, prepared and coached for a detox program.
The Natural Nurse & DrZ have been supervising professional detoxification programs for over 40 years, and have a wide range of experiences clinically to share, discussing the proper ways to detoxify the various organs of the body.They have discussed clinical proven ways to detoxify, (or let's use the proper word, DEPURATE), in their incredible book,
Arthritis: the alternative medicine definitive guide.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1587612585/ref=as_li_ss_il?ie=UTF8&tag=natunurs-20&linkCode=as2&camp=217145&creative=399369&creativeASIN=1587612585
The hosts will discuss natural medicines supporting the emunctories, the term used for the organs of detoxification, which include the Liver/gallbladder, the lymphatics, the kidneys, the bowels, the skin and the lungs.
By following such a clinically proven and safe approach to DEPURATION, one can lower the body's burden of heavy metals and persistent organic pollutants; this will remove obstacles to cure and help to conquer complex chronic diseases such as chronic fatigue syndrome, autoimmune arthritis, chronic pain and inflammation, diabetes and many other ailments which have been linked to the toxic burden or the Loading Theory.

Topic: Depression and the Microbiome
Dr. Kulreet Chaudhary, MD, says depression isn’t just a mind game, but very much a gut game too and new research is validating what ancient medicine has been focused on for centuries.Dr. Chaudhary is an internationally recognized expert in the ancient practice of Ayurvedic medicine. The gut and brain are one functional unit and the fastest way to shift mood is by changing diet, improving gut health and shifting your microbiome. When the gut-brain connection is disrupted—no matter what else you may add to boost your mood—you’re fighting an uphill battle. Dr. Chaudhary says without addressing gut health, you can spend years searching for mental health solutions with limited or unproductive results. She will share three Ayurvedic gut/mind actions that can spontaneously help improve mood this winter season (including: switching your inner dialogue, herbs that help, and meditation and mantras).

Guest: Alexander Alvarado, Psy.D
Topic: Men’s Health- Mental Wellness
Alexander Alvarado, Psy.D., clinical psychologist and founder of Thriving Center of Psychology says many people seek therapy when facing a breaking point, be it in a relationship, career or other big life moment. A breaking point is some major event that finally is the proverbial straw that breaks the “camel’s back.” Others seek help after finally reaching a tipping point, or a series of events that lead up to that self-reflective “ah-ha moment” that something is just not right and a change needs to be made. We see this unfold frequently in the entertainment and sports industries. Case in point: Will and Jada Smith, Tiger Woods and Naomi Osaka. But when is the best time to seek a therapist and how do you find the right match for your specific situation?

Hand Exercise- An Important Part of Wellness
Dr. Terry Zachary is a former professional golfer and sports chiropractor from Langley, BC, Canada a suburb of Vancouver. He is the developer of the Handmaster Plus hand exercise system and is the author of the book ‘Great Hands, Great Life!’
Dr. Zachary regularly saw grip repetition injuries that were the result of ‘squeeze-only’ hand exercise or NO exercise in athletes, especially in professional golfers that he travelled with. He found that hand muscles become imbalanced due to the repetitive gripping within both golf and often in their grip training for golf.
Dr. Zachary soon realized that daily repetitive gripping was a root cause in most common finger, thumb, hand, wrist, carpal tunnel, forearm, and elbow imbalance conditions in all grip activities.
Dr. Zachary is now a world leader in grip training and education. He has redefined hand exercise to the general public, as well as to healthcare & fitness professionals, athletes, musicians, and grip-related workers, computer users, sports athletes, and hobbyists around the world.
Dr. Zachary promotes regular, full range of motion exercise to naturally strengthen and balance muscles and to maximize circulation and create healthy, functional joints and tissues. Contact for public: terry@doczac.com www.handmasterplus.com
