S3 Ep 9: ‘Nutrigenomics in practice’ featuring Anne Pemberton

09/13/24 • 46 min

Anne Pemberton is a functional medicine and nutrigenomics practitioner and trauma informed medical intuitive, and author of “Using nutrigenomics within personalised nutrition”. We talk about how the field of nutrigenomics has evolved in recent years, and how Anne has been at the forefront of setting out how to use DNA tests meaningfully in practice.
Anne discuss epigenetics, neurotransmitters, methylation, leaky gut and brain cells, neurodiversity, energetics, trauma, and so much more, peppered with generous gems of knowledge and wisdom along the way.
“So in effect you might give a folate or a B12 to help methylation for an example. But that isn’t truly what it’s about at all because there are all levels of what makes us sick, what makes the methylation cycle work ineffectively. And so we have to look at all those levels. So we’re looking at nutrition, lifestyle, minds, psyche... and then you’ve got to look at the environment that you’re in as well. What are the environmental triggers for causing gene expression?”

S3 Ep 8: ‘Harmonising Hormones Holistically’ featuring Orley Moyal from Bio-Nature

Originally broadcast as a webinar on 27 April 2024, Orley explains how many of us know how stress may negatively affect the way we work, eat, sleep, think and feel. Yet few of us are aware of the profound impact that stress has on the whole female hormone cycle, from Puberty through to Menopause.

By exploring the interconnectedness of all parts of the Endocrine system and its hormones, Orley illustrates how interactions within this system and its key hormones, allows us to adapt to stress, especially in times of change, like the Menopause.

Combining this awareness with an understanding of nature’s most supporting & balancing plants and nutrients, will ultimately enable us to make these hormonal adjustments more positive and harmonious.

Key points:

Interconnected functioning of the Endocrine System i.e. H-P-T-A-G Axis.
Interplay between the Adrenal, Thyroid, Pancreatic & Reproductive glands and hormones.
Homeostatic relationship of the key Female Sex Hormones – Oestrogen, Progesterone & Prolactin and what happens when there’s an imbalance (incl. Causes & Symptoms).
Natural hormone- balancing solutions including, Diet, Supplements and Probiotics

S3 Ep 10: ‘IBS and IBD Overlap in Clinical Practice: The Role of the Gut Microbiome and Probiotics’ featuring Nadia Lyons from OptiBac

Originally broadcast as a webinar on 6 August 2024, this podcast explores the function of the gut microbiome in IBS and IBD, the impact of microbial dysbiosis and the overlap between both conditions. It discusses how to classify and manage their symptoms and look at the latest scientific research that addresses specific probiotic strains to reduce and manage the severity of IBS symptoms and manage IBD remission. Probiotic research is emerging as a complementary approach to support remission, reduce inflammatory markers, and improve the mucosal lining.
