Pain–we all hate it, and try tons of medications to get rid of it. Chronic pain can be physically, mentally and emotionally debilitating for patients of any critical illness. Dr. Dan Twogood began practicing in 1982 at the International Sports Medicine Institute in West Los Angeles. While there he treated many of the athletes in the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics. He opened his own practice in California in 1985, and it was there that he discovered the diet/pain connection. As he learned more about chronic pain, he wrote three books: How to Rid Your Body of Pain, MSG is Everywhere, and recently Chronic Pain Gone 90 Days.

Jim has allowed us to add an interview with Courage to Dare from Africa for the first part of the show. Samira is a 28-year-old Nigerian girl, who was diagnosed four years ago. Now, Samira has metastatic brain cancer. This rare opportunity to interview Samira will allow her to tell her story.

May is Skin Cancer Awareness Month. I attended an eye-opening cancer meeting recently. The speaker said, “Indoor tanning (beds) are to your skin what cigarettes are to your lungs, only the results are much faster!” Between 1995 and 2004, the number of people diagnosed with a dangerous type of skin cancer, melanoma, increased by more than 40%! Sadly, a lot of the victims are very young because of the use of tanning beds. Punit Dhillon is co-founder, President and CEO of OncoSec Medical Inc., a biotechnology company developing its advanced-stage Oncology Medical System (OMS) ElectroOncology therapies, an innovative approach to battling solid tumor cancers including all types of skin cancer—harnessing a scientific phenomenon known as electroporation.

Please join Isabella Stoloff and her guest Heather Fleming on Tuesday, May 8 at 7pm Pacific, 10 Eastern time. Heather is the founder of Conscious Nutrition® and believes your body possesses an innate intelligence guiding you toward disease free living.

Helping others to live a life of balance and vitality began for Heather when she earned her B.S. in Nutritional Science from the University of Nebraska – though she now lives in San Diego. Her personal journey of discovering the connection between what to feed the body, and healing the body, inspired her to develop the Conscious Nutrition® program.

Heather tells us, “The human body yearns to be balanced and healthy. The Conscious Nutrition® programs help you reset your mind and body to their original intentions. When you are balanced you naturally crave the healthy foods that support your body’s best performance. When you start to lose your balance due to stress, outside pressures, or insecurities, the Conscious Nutrition® program gives you simple tools and guidance so you can recover quickly, and get back into balance with nature.”

Conscious Nutrition® focuses on nutrition, conscious thought, relationship with food, and freedom from diet and restriction. The philosophy & program integrate real life experience and suggestions to support a life saturated with vitality and nourishment.

This past holiday season, Heather organized a pre-holiday ‘Healthy Happy Hour®.’ The event began with a centering guided meditation and yoga, followed by freshly prepared healthy appetizers paired with an organic wine, all enjoyed while discussing gratefulness as well as how to maintain a healthy lifestyle and mind set during the holiday season. The intention of the evening was to assist in de-stressing before the holidays and inviting more JOY into everyday life. Participants even took home healthy recipes.
