Leland Stillman: Medicine, Trauma & Upholding The Hippocratic Oath

Leland Stillman, MD is an American integrative medical doctor who specialises in environmental medicine. Leland realised very early on in his career that conventional medical practices focus on symptom management rather than optimal health. The word doctor is derived from the Latin word, ‘Docere’, meaning “to teach”; something Leland saw was absent in the centralised system. As a result, spurred on by his desire to follow Hippocrates’ notion that “The greatest medicine of all is to teach people how not to need it”, he started his own practice. He currently works with patients all over the world and in Naples, Florida on the fundamental aspects of health. He also works closely with Clark Engelbert of Nutritional Analytics where they teach HTMA interpretation through Stillman Wellness.Follow Leland:WebsiteStillman WellnessSubstackInstagramTwitter/XFollow Me:WebsiteSubstackConsultationInstagramYoutubeTwitter/XSpotifyAppleLinktree

Clark Engelbert: Mineral Balancing & Systems Biology

Clark is a health practitioner who specialises in mineral balancing. The concept of mineral balancing is based on the field of ionomics and stems from the work of a soil scientist, William Albrecht. Clark is particularly interested in the use of hair tissue mineral analysis (HTMA) in identifying system-wide nutrient relationships in order to restore balance and eliminate accumulated heavy metals. The use of HTMA over blood analysis gives some salient advantages in some respects; hair is a tissue sample and can be used to gain a deeper insight into the longer-term status of an individual and their metabolic function. While it has its limitations, HTMA, when interpreted correctly can be extremely helpful in identifying imbalances in the mineral system and establishing protocols to rebalance that system.Clark currently runs Nutritional Analytics where he works with patients from all over the world and helps them deal with heavy metal toxicity and mineral imbalances that are ubiquitous today.Clark's WorkNutritional AnalyticsClark's InstagramClark's LinktreeMy WorkWebsiteConsultationInstagramYoutubeTwitter/XSpotifyAppleLinktree

Cyndi O'Meara: Vitalism as a Guide to Health & Wellness

Cyndi O’Meara is a leading nutritionist, filmmaker, best-selling author, TEDx Speaker and Founder of Changing Habits and The Nutrition Academy. She has been a trailblazer in the natural health space for several decades. Long before there was more widespread awareness of the dangers of hyperprocessed foods, Cyndi has been an advocate of whole food nutrition as well as using ancestral lifestyle patterns as a guide for wellness in the post-industrial era. She has been involved in so many projects that have brought more awareness to the issues of chemically-based agriculture, low carbohydrate diets and so much more. Cyndi also co-hosts a podcast called, “Up For A Chat” with hundreds of episodes covering a large range of topics.Cyndi's WorkWebsiteThe Nutrition AcademyChanging Habits BookUp For A Chat Podcast'What's With Wheat?'

Michael Holick: Vitamin D & Leveraging Sunlight For Health

Michael Holick, MD, PhD, is an American endocrinologist and world’s leading expert on Vitamin D. He is known for his discovery of the active form of Vitamin D and the development of the assay for the circulating form - one of the most ordered assays ever generated. Michael has specialised in conditions including psoriasis, osteomalacia and hypermobility syndromes. He is the author of several popular books including “The Vitamin D Solution” and “The UV Advantage”. Michael’s work has had a huge impact on medicine and is the recipient of many awards including the Linus Pauling Prize in Human Nutrition, the Robert H. Herman Award from the American Society for Clinical Nutrition and NIH’s General Clinical Research Centre's Program Award for Excellence in Clinical Research. He has battled myopic and biased dermatologists essentially because his work brings a broader context to the conversation of health and sun-exposure; a topic that has become very controversial because of the doubling-down of both professionals and institutions on the idea that sunlight is harmful, which is undeniably false. Michael continues to preach the message of sensible sun-exposure as well as working with patients and researching to further understand the role of Vitamin D and its related compounds in human health.Michael's Work:- The UV Advantage- The Vitamin D Solution- D-Minder AppMy Work:- Website- Consultations- Instagram- Youtube- Twitter/X- Spotify- Apple- Linktree

David Raubenheimer & Stephen Simpson: Nutritional Geometry & The Protein Leverage Hypothesis

David Raubenheimer is a Professor of Nutritional Ecology at the University of Sydney who specialises in nutritional and appetite regulation. His approach is comparative, using ecological and evolutionary diversity to understand these interactions. David’s studies of insects, fish, birds and a variety of mammals have helped develop a new approach to human nutrition-related problems, such as the dietary causes of obesity. Stephen Simpson is a Professor in the School of Life and Environmental Sciences at the University of Sydney. He has a background in experimental psychology, zoology and nutritional biology. Stephen is one of the world’s foremost entomologists and nutritional biologists, and in 2015 he was made a Companion of the Order of Australia for eminent service to biological and biomedical science.David and Stephen have been working together for decades on a unifying approach to nutrition and energy balance. Their investigations began with the question of why animals in the wild are so capable of regulating their food intake as to avoid the conditions of excess that humans are experiencing at startling rates. This led them to investigate the impacts of various ratios of macronutrients on food intake in animals from locusts to primates. Their findings led them to formulate the “Protein Leverage Hypothesis”, which broadly states that animals prioritise the consumption of protein and eat various foods until a ‘target’ of protein is met.David & Stephen's Work:Eat Like The AnimalsThe Nature of NutritionObesity: the protein leverage hypothesisNutrition, ecology and nutritional ecology: toward an integrated frameworkMy Work:WebsiteConsultationInstagramYoutubeLinktree

Michael Crawford: DHA, Prenatal Nutrition & The Shrinking Brain

Michael Crawford, PhD, is a British researcher who focuses on the importance of marine fatty acids in human development and health outcomes. Michael got his PhD in 1960 in chemical pathology at the Royal Postgraduate Medical School, University of London. Since then, Michael has been a vital part of countless projects including setting up advanced medical schools and hospitals in Uganda, working with the Indonesian government on marine farming projects, all the while becoming the world’s expert in essential fatty acids.Michael has a particular interest in the role and necessity of docosahexanoic acid (the omega-3 fatty acid DHA) and arachadonic acid in the evolution of the brain. Humans have the largest brain relative to body size, and our brains are made predominantly of highly unsaturated fatty acids; particularly DHA. Without the consistent consumption of seafood during our early evolution as we left the trees and departed our primate ancestors, we could never have developed the cranial capacity we eventually did. However, with shifting dietary patterns and destruction of marine habitats, the all-critical marine food web is being damaged. Micheal posits that this will spell disaster for humanity if we do not maintain a strong relationship with these essential marine nutrients.Michael’s new book, “The Shrinking Brain” documents how our brains developed, what has gone wrong over the last century, and what we can do to optimally nourish ourselves and our progeny. He also has several recent publications regarding the quantum mechanical effects of DHA in signal transduction in the brain.Michael's Work:The Shrinking BrainDocosahexaenoic Acid Explains the Unexplained in Visual TransductionFollow My Work:WebsiteConsultationsInstagramYoutubeSpotifyApple Podcasts
