ReThink It: The Brain Health and Longevity Podcast

ReThink It: The Brain Health and Longevity Podcast

Sande Bargeron

A podcast series that is dedicated to bringing hope for lasting healing for those struggling with a brain on fire. The numbers don't lie- new onset dementia is a diagnosis seen with greater frequency. Is it because of chronic brain inflammation that started before you were born? Is it because of undiagnosed stealth infections, toxic burdens or something else? In this podcast, we explore the science of health habits that will change the direction of your brain health forever. You will be challenged, like I was, to RETHINK what it means to be healthy. This podcast is hosted by Sande Bargeron, PhD, who, after years in the medical field, was forced to re-examine foundational health and the meaning of healing. After dealing with personal autoimmune issues, losing a family member to dementia, struggling with kids who had ADHD and a child with chronic neurological Lyme Disease, she learned that protecting the brain was a highly overlooked aspect of human health. We medicate brain issues, but do we really preserve brain health? Are we dooming a generation to early cognitive decline, robbing them of their chance for dignified aging and of the freedom to enjoy the fruits of their labor in the twilight years? Rethink lifestyle, nutrition, fitness and more. Bio-hack your brain and be inspired to take action that will help you fully enjoy your life again. New episodes at the beginning of each month.

We talk about the progression of understanding in dentistry as it relates to overall health, as well as long-term brain health and several other interesting (and some might say, controversial) topics.

This episode covers a lot of relevant ground that you will not want to miss!
Fun Facts: Did you know that the fuzziness that you get on the outside of your teeth when you wake up in the morning is the excretion (or poop) from the bacteria inside your teeth?

play

08/10/23 • 53 min

In this episode we will re-examine the value of structural support as a tool in overall health and disease prevention. In particular, we will look at the incredibly important connection between maintaining healthy spinal alignment and how this contributes to overall brain health protection and optimal brain function.
You will hear from my colleague, Dr. Joshua Logan, founder and operator of True North Health Center in Colorado Springs. His private practice has been voted Best Chiropractic Clinic and Best Holistic Pain Management Clinic for several years in a row. Dr. Logan works with the scientifically valid belief that the body is the best doctor and that it was designed to be able to heal itself when given the right tools and support.
In this episode we will explore the connection between proper spinal alignment and movement and how it affects the immune system, organ function, specifically brain function, and neuroplasticity. You will be shocked to learn how even small malalignments of the spine can have a huge impact on the body overall.
Fun Fact: Did you know that chiropractic adjustments improve neuroplasticity and cell adaptability to stress? (Its a like a non-herbal adaptogen!)
In this episode, we also do not shy away from the common questions people have about the safety of chiropractic adjustments. As always, we hope to empower you to self-advocate to find the best chiropractor for your health needs, so we spend some time discussing how to select a chiropractor to fit your needs!

Has the idea of self care been something completely ambiguous to you? Do you think self care is a day at the spa sipping champagne with your friends? What does REAL self care look like? Self care is the foundation of well-being and recovery from chronic illness, but it seems like something that is hard to put our finger on and define. In this new podcast, I am bringing back my friend and colleague, Meg Richichi. She is a women's health and hormone specialist and she and I are going to tackle the topic of self care, or as Meg likes to call it, self-priority. We discussed the need for women, in particular, to prioritize ourselves, not selfishly, but in order to be able to have the resources to do what we do-- care for our families, serve in our communities and kick butt in our professions!This podcast may give you a different perspective of self care and some valuable insights as to how and why we do it!About our Guest, Meg Richichi:Meg is an Integrative Women’s Health Practitioner with nearly 30 years of clinical expertise. She practiced in New York City for nearly two decades and currently resides in Atlanta, GA while providing Telehealth services to women around the country.Meg uses an "East meets West" approach to help countless women overcome many hormonal imbalances, including infertility, PCOS, PMS, weight issues, digestive disorders, anxiety, and depression.

It is common for me to hear from clients that they are so overwhelmed by the amount contradictory information out there that they just want to give up. One topic that tops the list of contradictory information is the fluoride- is fluoride really good for your teeth? Is chronic low-grade exposure safe? What even constitutes “low-grade” exposure?

In this episode, we dig into the tip of the iceberg on the research surrounding the human health effects of fluoride. You will be shocked to learn that the research extends back forty years. We will drop in for the tiny-est bit of chemistry and look at WHY fluoride may affect the body the way it does. We discuss WHERE we get exposed to fluoride regularly- hint, it's not just in the water.

This episode pulls back the blinds about the science and the controversy surrounding fluoride and highlight the health effects from long-term exposure. In the upcoming episode (Part 2), you can expect for us to highlight practical ways to identify and reduce your exposure as well as some products that support your body in removing damaging stored fluoride, so be sure to like and follow me to be notified when that episode uploads!
Fun Fact: Did you know that fluoride is commonly used in medications?
Fun Fact 2: Dental and skeletal fluorosis (linked with too much fluoride exposure) actually leads to brittle bones, arthritis and even a higher risk of dental caries (cavities).Resources for today's episode:
