The Truth About Sparkling Water and Health: What Cancer Patients Need to Know

June 25, 2024 Blog, Podcast, Uncategorized Comments Off on The Truth About Sparkling Water and Health: What Cancer Patients Need to Know

When it comes to staying hydrated, many of us reach for sparkling water. It’s refreshing, often delicious, and can be a fun alternative to plain water. However, recent reports about popular seltzer brands containing high levels of PFAS chemicals have raised significant health concerns.

PFAS, or perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances, are often referred to as “forever chemicals” due to their persistence in the environment and the human body. These substances have been linked to various health issues, including fertility problems, thyroid issues, cancer, and liver damage. They are found in everyday items like waterproof clothing, non-stick cookware, food packaging, and even dental floss.


*Chart from food babe IG 

Despite alarming findings reported in 2021, regulation of PFAS chemicals has been slow. Although the EPA has recently started requiring utility companies to filter out PFAS, these limits are not yet enforced for sparkling water brands.

Environmental advocate and actor Mark Ruffalo has been vocal about the need for stricter regulations, highlighting the industry’s financial motivations for maintaining the status quo. As consumers, it’s crucial to stay informed and choose products that prioritize our health.

For cancer patients, selecting the right sparkling water can be especially important. Here are some brands that have taken significant steps to ensure their products are safe and free from harmful chemicals:

Spindrift
Highlights: Spindrift is a standout for its low PFAS levels (0.19 ppt). Each can lists the real fruit used for flavoring, offering varieties like grapefruit, mango, and the refreshing Nojito flavor (mint and lime). View on amazon.

Sound
Highlights: Sound is one of the few brands reporting zero PFAS levels. Their unique flavors, such as lemon with thyme and white tea, and rose with lime and hibiscus tea, offer a delightful change from the norm. View online.

Waterloo
Highlights: With BPA-free cans and ultra-filtered regional water, Waterloo is a favorite. Each can is sold within 500 miles of its source, emphasizing eco-consciousness alongside taste. View on amazon.

Mountain Valley
Highlights: Known for its non-detectable PFAS levels, Mountain Valley rigorously tests and monitors its sources. Their sparkling water is known for its crisp, satisfying carbonation. View on amazon.

Proud Source
Highlights: Proud Source commits to transparency with annual water quality reports and packages their mineral-rich water in recyclable aluminum bottles, which keep water cooler longer. View on amazon.

Nixie
Highlights: Nixie uses USDA organic ingredients without artificial additives, ensuring pure, flavorful water. Their reverse osmosis filtration effectively removes PFAS chemicals. View on amazon.

San Pellegrino
Highlights: A classic favorite, San Pellegrino maintains low PFAS levels (0.31 ppt). Their Essenza cans offer Mediterranean-inspired flavors that enhance any mocktail. View on amazon.

Aura Bora
Highlights: Filtered through reverse osmosis and free from citric acid, Aura Bora offers unique flavors like mango chili and tangerine blossom in recyclable cans. View on amazon.

DIY Sparkling Water
Highlights: Home sparkling water makers like Sodastream and Ninja Thirsti provide control over water quality and bubble levels. Using charcoal and reverse osmosis filters ensures the cleanest water possible.

 

Insights from Jess Kelley of the Oncology Nutrition Institute

In a recent podcast episode with Jess Kelley, founder of the Oncology Nutrition Institute, we delved deeper into the importance of hydration for cancer patients. Jess shared invaluable insights on maintaining proper hydration and the critical role it plays in overall health.

Key Takeaways from the Podcast:

Hydration is Crucial: Jess emphasized that water is the “master nutrient,” essential for nearly every biochemical reaction in the body. Proper hydration can significantly impact energy levels, cognitive function, and overall well-being.

Signs of Dehydration: Common signs include fatigue, hunger, mood changes, headaches, and constipation. Jess pointed out that even a 2% loss in hydration can impair physical and mental functions.

Water Quality Matters: It’s not just about drinking enough water but also about ensuring its quality. Jess recommended using reliable filtration systems like reverse osmosis to remove contaminants, including PFAS chemicals.

Balancing Hydration Sources: While sparkling water can be a refreshing treat, Jess advised that the majority of your daily water intake should come from non-carbonated sources. This helps ensure optimal hydration and reduces the risk of mild headaches or other issues associated with carbonated beverages.

Electrolyte Balance: For those engaged in intense physical activity or undergoing treatment that affects hydration levels, adding electrolytes can be beneficial. Jess highlighted brands like LMNT and Trace Minerals for their low-sugar, high-quality electrolyte options.

Practical Tips:

  • Start your day with flat water to replenish overnight losses.
  • Use herbal teas or infuse water with natural flavors to make it more appealing.
  • Monitor your hydration status with at-home urine test strips to ensure you’re staying adequately hydrated.

By integrating these insights and choosing the right sparkling water brands, you can support your health and hydration needs effectively. For more detailed information, listen to our full podcast episode with Jess Kelley.

Understanding the Biology of Trauma with Dr. Aimie Apigian

June 5, 2024 Blog, Podcast Comments Off on Understanding the Biology of Trauma with Dr. Aimie Apigian

We recently had the opportunity to sit down with Dr. Aimie Apigian, a medical expert in trauma healing, for our latest podcast episode. Dr. Aimie, a double board-certified physician in both preventative and addiction medicine, is renowned for her work in understanding how life experiences get stored in the body. Her approach, known as the biology of trauma, has helped countless individuals accelerate their healing journeys.

The Importance of Quality Sleep
Our conversation kicked off with Dr. Aimie sharing her top health tip: prioritizing quality sleep. “Make sleep a non-negotiable,” she emphasized. Quality sleep is fundamental for various bodily functions, and Dr. Aimie provided three practical tips for improving sleep: taking magnesium at bedtime, using blackout curtains to ensure darkness, and keeping the bedroom cool.

Defining Trauma
One of the key topics we explored was the nature of trauma. Dr. Aimie explained that trauma is not defined by the external event but by the internal response of the body. She illustrated this with examples of how two people can experience the same event but have completely different reactions based on their body’s internal responses. Trauma, she clarified, is the body’s response of overwhelm.

Stored Trauma and Its Impact
Delving deeper, Dr. Aimie discussed how trauma gets stored in the body. When our bodies experience overwhelming events, these responses can become default patterns. This stored trauma can significantly impact our nervous system, leading to chronic issues like fatigue, pain, and even metabolic and immune system dysregulation.

Stress vs. Trauma
A crucial part of our discussion was differentiating between stress and trauma. While stress is a normal response meant to propel us into action and growth, trauma is a state of overwhelm where the body’s response system gets stuck. Recognizing when our bodies are crossing from stress into trauma is vital for maintaining health and wellbeing.

Healing from Stored Trauma
Dr. Aimie introduced us to several effective strategies for releasing and processing stored trauma. One simple yet powerful technique involves using physical objects, like a pillow over the stomach, to create a felt sense of safety. These somatic exercises, which work directly with the body’s tissues, help shift the nervous system out of a trauma state and into a place of safety and support.

The Impact of Trauma on the Immune System
We also learned about the impact of stored trauma on the immune system. Dr. Aimie explained that trauma can lead to immune dysregulation, making the body either overreactive or under reactive. This dysregulation can have serious health consequences, including chronic inflammation and increased oxidative stress, which can hinder the body’s ability to fight diseases like cancer.

Trauma-Informed Approaches
Unlike traditional medical or psychological treatments, trauma-informed approaches focus on resolving the body’s response of overwhelm. Dr. Aimie highlighted the importance of creating a felt sense of safety and support to facilitate healing. She emphasized that healing is not just about talking through events but about changing the body’s physiological response to those events.

Practical Strategies for Healing
Dr. Aimie shared several practical strategies for healing from trauma, including somatic exercises and techniques to create moments of safety throughout the day. She stressed the importance of understanding and responding to the body’s needs, which can improve physical and emotional health.

Our conversation with Dr. Aimie Apigian was enlightening and filled with valuable insights into the biology of trauma and the healing process. Her unique approach and practical tips offer hope and guidance for anyone struggling with the effects of stored trauma.

To dive deeper into Dr. Aimie’s work and learn more about her healing strategies, be sure to listen to the full podcast episode. You won’t want to miss this transformative conversation.

Navigating Childhood and Adult Cancer with Hope and Healing: An Interview with Dr. Dagmara Beine

May 23, 2024 Blog, Podcast Comments Off on Navigating Childhood and Adult Cancer with Hope and Healing: An Interview with Dr. Dagmara Beine

Welcome to the Believe Big podcast! In today’s episode, Ivelisse Page speaks with Dr. Dagmara Beine, an expert in integrative medicine and the founder of Zuza’s Way Integrative Care. Dr. Beine shares her insights on supporting children and adults with cancer through integrative therapies based on her personal and professional experiences. Let’s dive into the key takeaways from this conversation.

  1. Dr. Dagmara Beine’s Journey
    Dr. Beine’s journey into integrative medicine began with her daughter, Zuza, who was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia at the age of three and a half. Faced with the challenges of conventional treatment and the need for additional supportive care, Dr. Beine sought integrative therapies to aid her daughter’s healing. This personal experience led her to establish Zuza’s Way Integrative Care and write her book, A Parent’s Guide to Childhood Cancer: Supporting Your Child with Integrative Therapies Based on a Metabolic Approach
  2. Creating a Supportive Team
    Dr. Beine emphasizes the importance of building a supportive medical team. As parents, you are your child’s advocate. It’s crucial to find an oncologist who is open-minded and willing to incorporate integrative therapies into the treatment plan. This collaborative approach ensures comprehensive care that addresses not only the tumor but also the overall well-being of the child.
  3. Metabolic Approach to Cancer
    The metabolic approach to cancer focuses on understanding and addressing the underlying causes of cancer, rather than viewing it as mere bad luck. This perspective empowers parents to take proactive steps in their child’s care by incorporating healthy nutrition, reducing toxins, and improving overall metabolic health. Dr. Beine explains that this approach is especially crucial for children undergoing cancer treatment, as it helps make the treatment more effective and less toxic.
  4. Nutritional Strategies
    Nutrition plays a pivotal role in supporting a child’s health during cancer treatment. Dr. Beine outlines a step-by-step nutritional plan:
    Foundation Nutrition: Organic, non-GMO foods, quality proteins, full-fat dairies, and healthy fats.
    Level One Nutrition: Eliminate sugar, harmful carbohydrates, and processed foods.
    Level Two Nutrition: Implementing ketosis during treatment to reduce side effects and improve treatment efficacy.
    Meeting families where they are and gradually introducing these changes can significantly impact a child’s health and treatment outcomes.
  1. Detoxification
    Detoxification is essential for children undergoing cancer treatment to help their bodies eliminate toxins accumulated from chemotherapy, radiation, and other medications. Simple and effective detox methods include:
    Sweating: Using a sauna to help eliminate water-soluble toxins.
    Castor Oil Packs: Applying them to the lower belly.
    Dry Brushing and Jumping on a Trampoline: Stimulating the lymphatic system.
  1. Emotional and Mental Health Support
    The emotional and mental well-being of both the child and the family is crucial during cancer treatment. Dr. Beine highlights the importance of addressing these needs through:
    Family Therapy: Engaging in activities that promote emotional bonding and stress relief, such as dancing, hiking, and forest bathing.
    Spiritual Support: Seeking guidance from spiritual directors to process emotions and find peace.

Ivelisse Page also mentions resources like Healing Strong and Soul Shepherding, which offer support groups and spiritual direction to help families navigate this challenging journey.

Dr. Dagmara Beine’s integrative approach to childhood cancer provides hope and comprehensive care for families facing this difficult journey. By focusing on nutrition, detoxification, emotional support, and building a supportive medical team, parents can empower themselves to make informed decisions and support their child’s healing process.

Nurturing Yourself: Essential Insights for Caregivers Supporting Loved Ones with Cancer

April 10, 2024 Blog, Podcast Comments Off on Nurturing Yourself: Essential Insights for Caregivers Supporting Loved Ones with Cancer

As a caregiver for a loved one navigating the challenging journey of cancer, it’s easy to get lost in the demands of the role. Often, caregivers find themselves pouring all their energy into supporting their partner, neglecting their own well-being in the process. However, it’s crucial for caregivers to recognize the importance of self-care and seek support to navigate this difficult path effectively.

In a recent conversation on the Believe Big podcast, resiliency coach Marika Humphreys shared valuable insights and practical tips for caregivers based on her own experiences. Here, we delve into some key takeaways and strategies to help caregivers prioritize their own mental and emotional health while providing unwavering support to their loved ones.

Embracing Self-Care Practices:

Marika emphasized the significance of proactive self-care practices, particularly in managing overwhelming mental chatter and processing emotions effectively. One of her favorite self-care practices is the “thought download,” a method of transferring all mental thoughts, worries, and fears onto paper to alleviate mental clutter and promote catharsis.

Additionally, she highlighted the importance of acknowledging and allowing oneself to experience emotions fully. By practicing awareness and acceptance of emotions, caregivers can reduce the intensity of emotional experiences and cultivate inner resilience.

Reframing Caregiving Perspectives:

Caregivers often grapple with misconceptions about their roles, feeling the pressure to do it all and be everything for their partners. Marika suggests reframing perspectives by defining the role of caregiver based on personal values and priorities. By focusing on essential aspects of caregiving and seeking support for other tasks, caregivers can alleviate stress and prevent burnout.

Seeking Support Sooner Rather Than Later:

One crucial piece of advice Marika offered is the importance of seeking support early in the caregiving journey. Caregivers tend to postpone seeking help until burnout sets in, but Marika advocates for proactive support to prevent exhaustion and guilt. Getting support allows caregivers to maintain their strength and resilience, enabling them to provide the best care for their loved ones.

Being a caregiver for a loved one with cancer is undoubtedly challenging, but it’s essential for caregivers to prioritize their own well-being to effectively support their partners. By embracing self-care practices, reframing perspectives, and seeking support early on, caregivers can navigate the caregiving journey with resilience and compassion.

To all caregivers out there, remember that taking care of yourself is not selfish—it’s a vital component of being able to care for others effectively. Your well-being matters, and by nurturing yourself, you can continue to be a source of love and support for your loved one through their cancer journey.

Unveiling the Power of Integrative Healing: A Journey of Hope and Discovery

March 26, 2024 Blog, Patient Story, Podcast, Story of Hope Comments Off on Unveiling the Power of Integrative Healing: A Journey of Hope and Discovery

In the realm of health and wellness, the quest for effective strategies often leads individuals down various paths, each marked by its own set of challenges and triumphs.

Among these journeys, the story of Jon Hegarty and his brother Christian stands out as a beacon of hope and resilience in the face of adversity. Through their exploration of integrative healing modalities, they uncovered a wealth of knowledge and experiences that reshaped their approach to combating cancer.

The tale begins with Christian’s diagnosis of stage 4 osteosarcoma in 2013, a formidable adversary that tested the resolve of the entire family. Initially confronted with conventional treatment options, including chemotherapy, they embarked on a journey that would ultimately transcend the boundaries of traditional medicine

Full podcast episode:

Central to their quest was the adoption of holistic practices, guided by a steadfast belief in the body’s innate ability to heal. Jon shares his excitement for “sleeping grounded,” highlighting the benefits of connecting with the Earth’s electrons through grounding sheets and pillowcases. This simple yet profound practice offered a convenient way to harness the healing power of nature during the crucial hours of sleep.

As their journey unfolded, Jon and Christian delved deeper into the world of integrative healing, navigating roadblocks and challenges along the way. From the logistical hurdles of coordinating multiple appointments to the financial considerations of investing in supplements and alternative therapies, they encountered obstacles that tested their resolve.

Amidst the uncertainty, a beacon of hope emerged in the form of mistletoe therapy, a lesser-known treatment that showed promise in combating osteosarcoma. Encouraged by studies showcasing its efficacy, they embraced this holistic approach with a sense of conviction and determination.

Reflecting on their journey, Jon identifies three key modalities that played a pivotal role in Christian’s healing process: high-dose vitamin C, mistletoe therapy, and a nuanced approach to copper level regulation. These interventions, coupled with lifestyle modifications and a mindset of unwavering determination, contributed to Christian’s journey towards remission.

Beyond the realm of physical healing, Jon emphasizes the importance of addressing the emotional and spiritual dimensions of the cancer journey. Faced with fear and uncertainty, they found solace in faith, trust, and the support of a dedicated community. Through initiatives like Going Well, they seek to inspire and uplift others facing similar challenges, offering personalized messages of hope and encouragement.

Looking ahead, Jon envisions a future where integrative healing is embraced from the outset, empowering patients to explore holistic modalities alongside conventional treatments. With each step forward, they strive to bridge the gap between mainstream medicine and alternative therapies, fostering a culture of collaboration and empowerment.

As Jon’s narrative draws to a close, his words resonate with a message of empowerment and resilience. To those embarking on their own cancer journey, he offers a simple yet profound piece of advice: trust your gut, listen to your inner voice, and embrace the path that resonates most deeply with your being. In the pursuit of healing, it is this unwavering sense of conviction that serves as a guiding light, illuminating the way forward amidst life’s greatest challenges.
