  • Childbirth Education: Knowledge is Power with Emma Sutherland, Kerry Sutcliffe and Dr. Kate Levett

    28/08/2023

    At 37 percent, the rate of Australian caesarean section procedures is already one of the highest globally, and is projected to hit 45 percent by the year 2030. Join fx medicine Ambassador Emma Sutherland and guests Dr. Kate Levitt and Kerry Sutcliffe for an evidence-based discussion on the current birthing landscape in Australia. Kerry first takes us into the fascinating history of childbirth to help us understand the drastic changes from women-led, community-based birthing to the modern medicalised and seemingly disempowered process of birthing. She discusses the main drivers leading to C-section, recognising the prevalence of trauma around birth and how clinicians can provide knowledge and tools for an overall positive birthing experience. Dr. Levett layers in results from her current research which provides insight into the importance of working with a woman’s support structures (birth partner, family, allied healthcare practitioners) and following their preferences that can ultimately lead to profou

  • REPLAY: The Microbiome: Understanding Impacts of Soil Quality, Polyphenols, and Fasting with Dr. Adrian Lopresti and Dr. Emeran Mayer

    21/08/2023

    In this week's podcast replay, Dr. Emeran Mayer, gastroenterologist and brain-gut expert and our ambassador Dr. Adrian Lopresti discuss the various factors from childhood development, every day life and our environment can all impact our gut microbial balance. Dr. Mayer brings insights into the impacts of maternal stress, diet, environment, and birth experience on a child’s overall gut health. He also shares how the Earth’s microbial balance influences soil quality which then has a follow on effect of the amount of polyphenols in our fresh fruits and vegetables. They also discuss how that polyphenol content in food not only provides various health benefits but can also modulate the microbial abundance in our guts. Finally, the episode wraps up with an interesting discussion on time restricted eating (TRE) and how it can provide vast health benefits, not only on a macro level but also on gut function and at the microbiome level as well. This podcast is supported by excellent resources such as books, info

  • Ovulation Disturbances with Emma Sutherland and Dr. Jerilynn Prior

    14/08/2023

    Ovulatory disturbances pose significant challenges to women's reproductive health, making it crucial that practitioners have a comprehensive understanding of this complex topic. In this episode, Professor of Endocrinology and Metabolism Dr. Jerilynn Prior and our Ambassador Emma Sutherland provide clinicians with essential insights into the causes, diagnostic indicators, hormonal balance, and potential interventions associated with ovulatory disturbances. Together they discuss why ovulatory disturbances are not diseases but adaptive responses to a variety of factors –both biological and environmental, including work-related stress, lack of close relationships, time-related pressures, and feeling undervalued. Dr. Prior shares some clinical pearls to assess ovulation and relative hormone levels through cervical mucus observations and breast tenderness as well as compelling research surrounding the impacts of COVID and the importance of resilience. Recognising ovulatory disturbances as adaptive responses a

  • REPLAY: The Emerging Importance of Psychoneuroimmunology with Dr. Michelle Woolhouse and Professor Craig Hassed

    07/08/2023

    In this week's podcast replay, Professor Craig Hassed and our ambassador, Dr. Michelle Woolhouse discuss the science of psychoneuroimmunology (PNI). Craig describes the research into PNI and how the mind connects with the nervous and immune systems in a bidirectional manner. We learn how stress, depression, and trauma impact the body at a DNA level and how this influences ageing and health outcomes. Craig shares some fascinating research on the way trauma is carried through generations. Craig emphasises the importance of positivity when working with patients, focusing on the capacity of the patient to positively influence their immunity through their emotional and mental health. Of particular interest is the role that mindfulness meditation can play in PNI, including the influence meditation has on neurogenesis.

    31/07/2023

    Join Dr. Kristina Harris Jackson, omega-3 specialist, and FX Medicine Ambassador Emma Sutherland as they deep dive into fish oils. As clinicians we understand the value of omega 3s but having a full understanding of their origins, quality, specific functions, optimal dosing and safety during various life stages can be confusing. This podcast covers all of those aspects – backed up by some impressive research. Dr. Harris Jackson and Emma discuss the GOED’s stance of fish and fish oil accessibility, quality and safety for global health, the differences between ALA, EPA and DHA, the importance of red blood cell omega-3 levels and testing, and finally Dr. Harris Jackson’s specialty: omegas for preconception, pregnancy and post-natal health to help expand current understanding of the essential omega-3s.

Join Tim and Lisa as they identify the differences between acute and chronic and unpack the important concept of resolution of inflammation. There’s interesting discussion around the interconnected systems of the HPA axis, the gut mind connection, and various lifestyle factors that trigger and feed low grade inflammation, and the various everyday factors that can contribute to chronic inflammation leading to disease. Finally, they discuss the Holy Trinity of managing chronic inflammation – diet, exercise and lifestyle including therapeutic practices like forest bathing, colourful food choices (especially those high in anthocyanins), including healthy fats, manageable exercise routines and booking in for that sauna.

    19/06/2023

    Integrative GP Dr. Lily Thomas dives into the many complexities involved in fibromyalgia, a condition underpinned by chronic, systemic inflammation and neuroinflammation. Our Ambasssor Dr. Michelle Woolhouse opens the conversation discussing the many aetiologies of fibromyalgia which include oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, mast cell activation, microglia activation, peripheral and central sensitisation. They discuss common risk factors such as Vitamin D deficiency, gut health, and abnormal peripheral and central pain pathways, as well as others that can play a part in the development of fibromyalgia - which mainly impacts women aged 20 to 60 years of age. The gut is a major first focus for Dr. Thomas, who details connections between those with fibromyalgia and IBS, as well as how to investigate and treat through the gut. There’s also a deep discussion surrounding mitochondrial health and the development of fibromyalgia, due to the high concentration of mitochondria in skeletal muscle tissue as

  • REPLAY: A High Protein Diet: Meat and Metabolic Health with Dr. Michelle Woolhouse and Dr. Pran Yoganathan

    12/06/2023

    In this week's podcast replay, Dr. Michelle Woolhouse talks with gastroenterologist Dr. Pran Yoganathan about supporting clients through diet and lifestyle changes for better metabolic and digestive health. Understanding that current discourse around gut health, optimal diet and wellness is a complex, and confusing space, Dr. Pran Yoganathan focusses on simplifying dietary guidance to focus on the intake of dietary protein and fats, while working with individual patients to lower metabolic risk and imbalances. Dr. Pran and Dr. Michelle discuss the benefits of referring to our ancestral diet and lifestyle practices to simplify our own diets in a world when we are overwhelmed with conflicting dietary advice. Importantly, Dr. Pran focuses on the need to tailor dietary advice to the individual, based on their health status rather than their microbiome to ensure that they are able to get the best from the foods that they are eating and prevent disease.

The importance of support and providing a safe space for women to discuss all the underlying factors to their pain is emphasised. Importantly, knowing when to refer is explained, particularly

  • REPLAY: Recognising Mould-related Illness with Dr. Michelle Woolhouse and Dr. Sandeep Gupta

  • Multiple Autoimmune Syndrome with Lisa Costa-Bir and Daniel Sipple

    22/05/2023
