Dr. Manan Shah - Wyndly Health - Allergies www.Wyndly.com In this episode of the Over 40 Fitness Hacks, Brad Williams interviews Dr. Manan Shah, a board-certified ENT surgeon and founder of WYNDLY, a telehealth allergy treatment startup. They discuss Dr. Shah’s journey into the world of allergy treatment, the impact of environmental allergies on health, and how WYNDLY uses telehealth to make allergy care more accessible and affordable. Dr. Shah explains the prevalence of allergies, affecting one in four Americans, and how they can lead to issues like difficulty breathing, poor sleep, and hindered workout recovery. He shares that WYNDLY provides allergy relief through sublingual immunotherapy, which involves small daily doses of allergens under the tongue, gradually desensitizing the body. This alternative to traditional allergy shots is more convenient, especially for busy adults who can’t commit to weekly clinic visits. They also delve into the science behind allergies, noting how genetic predisposition and lack of early exposure to nature can increase sensitivity to allergens. Dr. Shah highlights the "unified airway theory," emphasizing that nasal and respiratory health are interconnected, so treating allergies can benefit overall respiratory health, sleep quality, and reduce risks of sinus infections and asthma. Brad and Dr. Shah also discuss how telehealth can bypass the insurance-driven barriers of traditional allergy treatment, making allergy care more streamlined and effective, especially for those over 40 aiming for optimal health.

Better Nutrition with Cronometer: My Review On Tracking Micronutrients & Avoiding Calorie Pitfalls Click On My Website Below To Schedule A Free 15 Min Zoom Call: www.Over40FitnessHacks.com Over 40 Fitness Hacks Facebook Group Get Your Whoop4.0 Here! In this episode of Over 40 Fitness Hacks, Brad Williams reviews Cronometer, a nutrition-tracking app that provides detailed insights into vitamin and mineral intake. Brad explains his interest in the app due to its precise tracking of micronutrients, which makes it easy to identify any nutritional deficiencies. He appreciates how Cronometer allows users to log food, scan barcodes, and review nutrient levels, making it easier to make adjustments either through diet or supplementation. Brad also shares a recurring issue he finds with fitness apps in general: they often overestimate calorie burn. While Cronometer calculates his basal metabolic rate (BMR) around 2,500 calories, his experience with the Whoop 4.0 fitness tracker, which he’s used for six months, suggests a more accurate estimate of 2,000-2,100 calories. Brad emphasizes that precise data is essential for anyone over 40 trying to maintain or lose weight. Though he finds Cronometer useful, he believes that long-term tracking may not be necessary for everyone. Instead, a focused month could provide the insight needed to fine-tune nutrition. For comprehensive fitness tracking, Brad still recommends Whoop 4.0, especially for its accuracy in calorie burn and sleep data, and encourages his listeners to explore it as a valuable tool for optimizing their fitness journey as they age.

Dr. Lewis shares how meeting key figures like Dr. McDaniel and hearing patient stories, such as Barbara's, reshaped his career, leading him to study the powerful effects of polysaccharides. Dr. McDaniel's discovery of polysaccharides' impact on immune signaling, especially for those with HIV, Alzheimer's, and other diseases, was transformative. Polysaccharides, he explains, act like immune system conductors, communicating with the body's organs to enhance immune responses, reduce inflammation, and promote healing. Dr. Lewis highlights a groundbreaking clinical trial he conducted on Alzheimer's patients using a formula containing these polysaccharides. The trial showed significant cognitive improvements, a result unheard of with current FDA-approved drugs. He also shares the story of Barbara, a thyroid cancer patient who, after being given six months to live, extended her life by nine years, largely credited to a rice bran product. Throughout the conversation, Dr. Lewis emphasizes the promising potential of polysaccharides, not only in aloe vera and rice bran but also in other sources like lion’s mane mushroom, which has gained popularity due to its high polysaccharide content.
