#31 Root to Stem with Alex Laird
16 september 2019 · 1 uur 13 min
Today I’m speaking with medical herbalist and author of “Root to Stem” Alex Laird. She runs one of the few NHS medical herbalism clinics at Whipps Cross hospital in London alongside a consultant dermatologist and has over 20 years of experience. Lees meer
Trained in biomedicine and plant pharmacology, Alex is also a visiting lecturer, has published numerous research papers, and is the co-founder of the charity Living Medicine.
Alex is a firm believer in using food and foraged plants to help support wellbeing.
We’re going to be cooking a recipe from the book Root to Stem and I’m fascinated by her role as a medical herbalist in the NHS.
Some of the areas that Alex and I spoke about:
Try growing some greenery on your windowsill & growing plants at home
Kitchen herbs like Basil, Coriander, Parsley are a fantastic source of nutrition
Try out a local foraging class in your area
(it's very important that you go foraging with an expert as there are a lot of items which are inedible and may cause harm if consumed without experience advice)
Seasonal eating* - which is really easy to do by following which fruits and vegetables are in season and readily available at your local supermarkets
Including a variety of foods in your diet is key - and probably one of the most important concepts to include in the foods that you eat
Try walking meetings and eating al fresco where possible
You’ll find the recipe video that I cooked with Alex and our super interesting conversation - on my youtube channel go check it out!
And you can find all of this information and more at www.thedoctorskitchen.com
'Root to Stem' is a seasonal and holistic approach to health that puts plants, herbs and nature at the heart of how we live and eat.

#27 Life Lessons From A Brain Surgeon - Dr Rahul Jandial
19 augustus 2019 · 1 uur 15 min
Today I’m speaking to Dr Rahul Jandial - an American dual-trained neurosurgeon and scientist at City of Hope, a research centre, hospital and postgraduate training faculty in Los Angeles. Lees meer
He’s well known for his cutting-edge approach to brain surgery and neuroscience and has transformed the lives of his neurosurgical patients by putting them through his specially developed boot camp for restoring brain function. He’s written an eye-opening, informative and accessible guide “Life lessons from a Brain Surgeon” where he uses his years of expertise to show how healthy people can rewire their brains to work in a higher gear, and this is what we’ll be chatting about on todays show.
Mixing smart brain hacks with case studies and storytelling from his own experiences on the operating table, his book is a powerful and trustworthy insight into the brain.
If I could give you three challenges on the back of this podcast they would be:
For 1 week, try using your non-dominant hand when using your iPhone or brushing your teeth - it really is tricky at the start but the more you do it, the more dexterity you get in your other hand.
Try meditation this week. Try and do at least 10 minutes twice a day - book it in for 7 days, whatever you are doing. It may have some benefits to the cortices of your brain - it may have some benefits to your working memory as well and emotional intelligence.
Look at your diet and look out for the 'mind' diet - essentially a modified Mediterranean diet, where the focus is on vegetables, colours, but particularly greens.
You’ll find the recipe video that I made with Dr Rahul, and our super interesting conversation - on my youtube channel go check it out online and there's a link below too!
Have a listen to the podcast and enjoy - and don't forget to give us a 5* rating on the podcast, it really does help to spread the message and for others to find us too!

#20 Eat For Your Heart - with Dr Ayan Panja
18 maart 2019 · 1 uur 4 min
On this episode, I invite fellow doctor and friend Dr Ayan Panja, General Practitioner, super generalist, lifestyle medicine enthusiast and co-founder of Lobe Medical back to the podcast to talk about eating and lifestyle for our heart health. Lees meer
Eating for your heart as a concept, is not about food like a pill - but diet is an important consideration for protecting and promoting our heart health and it's why I ultimately believe that nutrition training is vital for all medics to grasp an understanding of, as well as the general public.

#19 Eat For Inflammation - with Dr Jenna Macciochi
11 maart 2019 · 1 uur 30 min
Today we have Dr Jenna back with us - this time to talk about Eating for Inflammation - you might wonder why I have an immunologist here to talk about inflammation - that will become very clear throughout our conversation. Lees meer
In today's podcast we talk about inflammation as a concept - why it's becoming so popular in the medical literature and why it's so relevant to a host of different medical specialties.
Today we cover the following:
What do we mean by inflammation?
The benefits of inflammation
Symptoms of inflammation imbalance
How we measure inflammation
Stopping the inflammation triggers
The microbiome and inflammation
Obesity and inflammation imbalance
Sugar and inflammation
If I was to summarise our conversation in a dietary way of life - it would be the Mediterranean diet. As we alluded to in our conversation, the Mediterranean diet is known to be anti-inflammatory, and now you have an understanding of what we mean by anti-inflammation.
Inflammation isn't something that we need to radically remove entirely, its use in human biology needs to be understood. But in the context of our modern lifestyles we are usually out of balance.
If you have a copy of my new book - Eat to Beat Illness - make sure you check out the page where I have a diagram looking at what is pro and what is anti-inflammatory in our modern world.

#8 Eat To Boost Your Brain - with Dr Ayan Panja
18 juni 2018 · 43 min
On this episode, I invite fellow doctor and friend Dr Ayan Panja, General Practitioner, super generalist, lifestyle medicine enthusiast and co-founder of Lobe Medical to talk about eating for our mind - with specific regard to neurodegenerative disease. Lees meer
We talk through:
What we mean by the concept of Eating for your brain
How food is such an important consideration in brain health
What we discuss with patients in regard to cognitive decline
How many listeners in their 30-40s might be thinking that this topic is only relevant for an older generation - but actually, looking after your brain is a lifelong process
The impact of stress, sleep and exercise on your brain
What neurogenesis is
The burden of Dementia and Alzheimer’s Disease
The factors that have been proven to reduce the effects of disease
If I was to suggest one recipe from my cookbook The Doctor's Kitchen that pretty much sums up our conversation - it would be the Elegant Flavanol Porridge - it has whole oats in it and also includes berries and cacao - which is a lovely chocolate spice that adds a wealth of aroma to your foods.
