In this very first episode of Beyond The Pain, I flip the script and share my story through the lens of a powerful conversation with Stretch Rainer on his Midlife Mavericks podcast.

Hormones is a subject that I’ve had a very special interest in since the early 1990’s, so Dr Rosensweet and I got deep into the subject of menopause and more importantly, how to thrive during and after menopause.

| 48 - Overcoming Embarrassing Gas, Bloating & Constipation with Tina McDermott | 10 Jul 2023 | 01:05:34 | |
In this week's episode, I spoke with Tina McDermott who spent most of her life struggling with digestive issues. She didn’t understand that the embarrassing gas, bloating, constipation, and yo-yo weight gain/loss she had since she was a teenager were all interconnected and thought that it was just ‘the way it is’, and that she had to live with it. Tina's inspiration for her own wellness journey began when her older sister Anna was diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 23 and ultimately took her at the age of 48. Anna’s illness and suffering was a wake-up call for Tina to learn more about how to take better care of her own health, and help others as well.

And with the ever-increasing rates of cancer, heart disease, diabetes, obesity, and mental health problems, all of which having a nutritional component I thought this was a subject I just had to tackle. The destruction of quality of life and early deaths many of these diseases cause, is totally avoidable. Just as I did in episode 17, “The Top 10 Gym Mistakes”, I will start with Nutrition Fail number 10 and work may way up to the number 1 Nutrition Fail. I will also be providing solutions as I go, so it won't be all doom and gloom. 10. Trying to supplement your way out of a poor diet 5:55 9. Believing healthy food is too expensive 7:35 8.

In this episode, I invited Nazarin Veronica to discuss her experience of the last 3 years and her fight for freedom, truth and bodily autonomy. Having watched a number of Nazarin’s online videos and TV appearances, I just had to get her on the show as she is such an inspiration to people, both young and old. I can say for sure if there were more people as wide-eyed, brave and morally sound as Nazarin, the world would not be in the mess that it is. We discussed Nazarin’s appearance on the BBC Documentary, called “Unvaccinated”. As you will see, Nazarin is an intelligent, courageous, no nonsense young women who stands up for what she believes in and doesn't allow herself to be bullied by authority figures, nor influenced by untruthful propaganda.
