S4 Ep 1: 'Sleep, Light and the Microbiome' featuring Adriano dos Santos, BSc, rNutr, AFMCP, MBOG, RSM, ESIM

Season 4 · Episode 1

Friday, February 28, 2025 • Duration 52:28

Adriano dos Santos is a Functional Registered Nutritionist who focuses on nutritional therapy for patients with metabolic syndrome, particularly those suffering from digestive issues and sleep disturbances.

For Adriano, the fundamentals start with sleep, and he is on a quest to help people improve the quality of their night time rest. In doing so, he takes the gut-mind connection several steps further with his research on how light impacts the gut microbiota and, in turn, impacts sleep. Adriano shares with us some of the insights he’s learnt from his research, and how he’s translating that to help his clients in practice. This takes the conversation from chronotypes and peripheral clocks, to when to eat dinner, and how to support the gut microbiota. Both Adriano and his research are buzzing with possibility, and it’s exciting to see where his research will take us.

Adriano joins us again at the virtual IHCAN Conference in June, with his talk ‘Darkness of Light Exposure: Light, Circadian Rhythms, and Microbiota for Chronic Disease Management’ - for more information, and to book your ticket, visit https://www.ihcanconferences.co.uk/june-2025/

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

Season 3 · Episode 9

Friday, September 13, 2024 • Duration 46:40

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

Season 3 · Episode 8

Friday, June 28, 2024 • Duration 01:02:56

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
