STNH 35: REBECCA EDWARDS - NEW NATURAL SOLUTIONS FOR MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES
We are currently experiencing an epidemic of anxiety, depression and mental health issues. Over the last decade, we've learned so much from research into the gut-brain axis, and the importance of gut health in order to create good mental health. But there's so much more to it than that. In this episode we chat about the role of inflammation in anxiety, low mood and sleep disturbances, the role of the microbiome in mental health, and the latest research on which probiotic strains are the most effective in helping to improve symptoms.
STNH 34: REBECCA EDWARDS - WHY WE AREN’T ABSORBING IRON… AND WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT
Low iron is something that both doctors and naturopaths/nutritionists see a LOT of in clinic. And often, despite giving high doses of iron supplements, levels simply do not budge. It's so frustrating! So... is it just about finding the "right" type of iron to give to the patient? Or is there something else going on? Enter Rebecca Edwards and her incredible knowledge of the biochemistry of iron absorption, and the role of the microbiome (and targeted probiotic therapy) in helping turn the deficiency state around.

And the role that inflammation plays in the increased breakdown of bones. Cue - targeted probiotic therapy to improve gut health, reduce inflammation and slow down bone loss.
