31st May 2012
Earlier this month I had the great please of meeting and interviewing physician Dr Mary Vernon who was speaking at the same dietary conference in the US, where I met Dr William Davis.
Dr Vernon is one of the leading clinicians, authors and educators in reduced carbohydrate nutrition. She is a past president of the American Society of Bariatric Physicians.
Dr Vernon has co-written a ground-breaking book called The Atkins Diabetes Revolution, which focused on a therapeutic dietary approach to the treatment of diabetes.You can see Dr Vernon being interview on Youtube.
She has also contributed to the creation of an online resource for physicians wishing to gain additional education in the use of nutrition in the treatment of many chronic conditions. See Innovative Metabolic Solutions.
In my interview we explore the role of nutrition in the management of asthma.
I look forward to your comments about the interview.
Eat well – breath well.

Wheat and Asthma – Dr William Davis

31st May 2012
Earlier this month I had the great please of meeting and interviewing cardiologist Dr William Davis who was speaking at a dietary conference in the US.
Dr Davis has written a fabulous book called Wheat Belly, which has become a New York Times best seller. Although the book argues for the elimination of wheat for both weight loss and cardiac health, he also observes how many patients had improvement in their asthma. I guarantee that if you read it, you will want to share it and recommend it to many friends who are seeking better health.
I was lucky to be able to interview Dr Davis during the conference. He details how wheat has changed over the decades and its inflammatory effects. He argues that there is good reasons for an asthmatic to do a 4 week wheat-free trial and no reason (other than inconvenience) not to.
His book Wheat Belly is highly recommended. It is available in hardcover, Kindle and audio CD. Here’s the Amazon link.
His web site www.wheatbellyblog.com is a great resource.
I look forward to your comments about the interview or the book.
Eat well – breath well.

Interview with Nutritionist Darlene Kvist

17th April 2012
This week I had the great pleasures of interview one of America’s leading nutritionists Darlene Kvist from Nutritional Weight and Wellness in St. Paul Minesota. She was joined by nutritionist Lea Wetzell who has overcome her Asthma using new thinking in nutritional science.
The interview is jam-packed with great recommendations.
Listeners may ask “Where is the evidence?” This question raises a discussion about the appropriate levels of evidence when the risks (of eating one food or dietary supplement and excluding another food) is low. However a higher level of evidence is needed for drugs where the risks of side effects is high.
Darlene and I both recommend the concept of N=1 where each person finds there own conclusive evidence by conducts their own study on their own body by making simple dietary changes and monitoring what (if any) difference (positive or negative) it makes to them. The result becomes self evident.
Darlene kindly agreed to let me record the interview and make it available online or to be downloaded. We welcome you comments.
I recommend you to visit her site www.weightandwellness.com as it has some very helpful articles and very informative interviews. I also suggest that you subscribe to her weekly podcast on iTunes called Dishing Up Nutrition. It’s all free!
Eat well – breath well.

Research worth looking at…
Externalities from grain consumption
Other population groups exhibit gluten sensitivity which can impact the development of asthma, allergies and neurological difficulties. This survey intends to provide a comprehensive description of both the positive and negative externalities associated with grain consumption and the resulting impact on human health.
