IHCAN magazine Podcast

Sally Duffin is a registered nutritionist and nutritional therapy practitioner and writer, and author of “Natural Nutrition for Perimenopause: What to eat to feel good and stay sane”.
In this episode we focus on post menopausal health risks such as cardiovascular health, dementia and bone strength, and Sally shares how we can mitigate some of those risks with lifestyle and nutrition. This brings up topics of gender inequality in healthcare, the role of HRT, and the amount of research that still needs to be done.
“It also comes back to this shift that needs to happen about how women see themselves, how the medical system is treating women, how society is treating women, and it’s all connected to reframing it all, actually, and making sure that we get the healthcare that we deserve, that funding is given, training is given to medical professionals about menopause and perimenopausal care, post menopausal care”

Katie Sheen is a mindfulness teacher and speaker, a nutritional therapist, and has a Masters degree in education.

She shares her experiences using mindfulness with nutrition clients – how mindfulness can help with making nutritional changes, and how nutritional support can help with being more settled and mindful. “It’s a fascinating two-way street we can offer people”
Katie also shares how mindfulness and self-compassion helped her deal with her own cancer diagnosis, treatment and recovery.
“And what was amazing was that in that moment I thought: My poor body... my poor body... I can see how much it’s suffering. And again, what a gift to be able to switch immediately into compassion, rather than fear – and there definitely was fear, I’m not going to pretend there wasn’t fear, there was fear as well, but the fear wasn’t of my own body. And that was one of those doorways for me into really taking care of myself.”
Themes include deep listening, compassionate speech, how to become more self-aware and use that to showing kindness and care to ourselves.

Patricia Daly is a nutritional therapist and ketogenic diet expert, specialising in cancer. Most of us have come across at least the basics of the ketogenic diet, but Patricia is able to provide updates and insights that add new layers to its application. Her own experience in both following and supporting people with the ketogenic diet is invaluable, alongside her collaborations with like-minded health professionals.
Patricia explains about ketones and metabolic flexibility, the potential benefits of a ketogenic diet, when you would avoid a ketogenic diet and useful tests to help you figure this out, and some practicalities along the way.
Patricia first came to the diet when she had cancer herself, and refers to this when describing the “privilege of witnessing the transformation of people who come to me”:
“I started my journey in the boot of the car. I didn’t even know, I didn’t want to know what they were going to do to me. Then I moved to sort of the child seat and then to passenger, until I had enough and started to drive. So that’s basically what I love to see in my clients as well, that’s people leaving from the boot to the driving seat.”

Join us at the IHCAN Summit 2023 live in London on Saturday 24 June.
June’s Summit will open eyes to the true power of nutritional medicine. We don’t treat cancer, but we can offer the finest personalised nutrition support for people WITH cancer thanks to Mary Beth Gonzalez and Prof Sarper Diler from The Nicholas Gonzalez Foundation.
It’s infuriating that commercial medicine fails to acknowledge published evidence that integrative health approaches pioneered by Dr Josef Issels, Dr Max Gerson, Dr William Kelley and Dr Nicholas Gonzalez, among others, are effective at curing people with cancer. The late Dr Gonzalez developed a protocol that succeeds, to this day, in bringing cancer patients – even those with pancreatic cancer – into long-term remission, and we’re lucky to have two advocates from the sharp end of nutrition-based treatment to inspire us with case histories and protocols showing just how powerful “our” methods can be.

This week microbiologist Kiran Krishnan, Ph.D tells us why he’s so microbiome obsessed, particularly when it comes to brain and cognitive health. We talk about neurotransmitters and inflammation, anxiety and depression, cognitive dysfunction and Alzheimer’s. And then how to take what we know so far about the microbiome and how we can support it practically and holistically.
“Part of building resilience is building a healthy diversified microbiome because it's your microbiome that provides your resilience. It's your microbiome that codes for the vast majority of capabilities in your body, which includes things like detoxification and metabolisation of chemistries, and the function of your liver, to get rid of things that you put in your body that shouldn't be in your body. All of those things, right, the resilience we all wish to have comes from a healthy microbiome.”
