Create More Vibrant, Healthy and Sexy No Matter What Your Age

25 of the World’s Leading experts on de-aging will be sharing their secret ingredients, special sauce and myth-busting facts to guide you toward a more healthy, vibrant and sexy you – at any age. Join hosts Dr. Anna Cabeca, OB/GYN, Functional Medicine and Age Management Specialist, and Robin Nielsen, Certified Nutrition Consultant and Growing Younger Expert for this global telesummit event at no charge so you can stop feeling OLD and FATigued and start feeling fabulous. The good news is that with some simple science-based information and a little commitment to yourself, you can age vibrantly and feel wonderful at any age. Bring on the fabulous!

This summit has already started (so sorry about the late notification) but it’s not too late register. I just started listening and am learning a lot already – I always learn so much on this summit!

I loved the interview with Dr. Susanne Bennett, best-selling author of The 7-Day Allergy Makeover; host of the Wellness for Life radio show; a leading natural allergy expert, specializing in anti-aging and lifestyle medicine; a Huffington Post contributor and television personality. She shared how to achieve a Flat Sexy Belly by revealing her “Inner Gut Secrets!”

Here are a few gems from her interview:

  • Fermentable carbohydrates are the sugars that are easily fermented in your digestive system, and include oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides, fructans, galactans and polyols. If you have SIBO/Small Intestinal Bacteria Overgrowth, these foods are going to be problematic, and may lead to bloating and even mood issues.
  • There is a new area of study called psychobiotics, spear-headed by Dr. Timothy Dinan, suggesting that certain “good” bacteria might have potential as a treatment for depression and other psychiatric maladies. Lactobacillus helveticus and Bifdobacterium longum have shown to reduce levels of stress hormones and maintain a calmer, peaceful state.

These could be some of the many reasons why are depression and anxiety more common as we age.

Here are a few of the upcoming speakers:

Dr. Sara Gottfried, New York Times Bestselling Author, of The Hormone Cure, and co-host of the #1 rated podcast on iTunes, The Health Bridge, will share with you her secrets on “Metabolism: How to keep It Humming As You Age”

Christy Whitman, NYTimes bestselling author of Taming Your Alpha Bitch: How To Be Fierce and Feminine (and Get Everything You Want!) and CEO/Founder of the Quantum Success Coaching Academy, will help you to “Creating Your Ideal Body”

Rebecca Katz, purveyor of “YUM”, Founder and Director of the Healing Kitchens Institute and author of many cookbooks including The Longevity Kitchen, shares “How Food Can Help Us Enhance Our Brain Function, Mood, Memory, and Mental Clarity in Our Non-Stop Day to Day Life.”

TrudyScott_syydates And if you haven’t yet heard me present, this is my talk:

Trudy Scott, Food Mood Expert, nutritionist and author of The Antianxiety Food Solution, on “The Amazing Amino Acids for Eliminating Anxiety and Emotional Eating. ” Low levels of brain chemicals or neurotransmitters such as GABA or serotonin could be another reason why depression and anxiety are more common as we age.

It’s all complimentary. Enjoy!

The S3xy Younger You series

By 4 Comments

 

I’m loving the SYY series hosted by Robin Nielsen, NC, and Dr. Anna Cabeca. I’m getting gems from everyone!

Do you want to learn from 25 leading health and relationship experts (including yours truly!) who will teach you how to reclaim a healthier, more vibrant and s3xy you—at any age!

Do you jump out of bed with tons of energy and feel on top of the world every single day? Or are you starting to feel your age? Creaky? Aches and pains? More tired and less vibrant? Blah? More stressed and anxious? Have hormonal imbalances? Are moody? If you answered yes to any of these, then you must join us!

Here are a few gems from some of the speakers I’ve heard so far:

Liz Lipski, author of Digestive Wellness, spoke on the importance of digestive health and she said “Food is the most intimate contact we have with our external environment”. She also talked about the digestive benefits of eating umbeloshi plums and how they help increase low stomach acid.

Jonny Bowden, the Rogue Nutritionist and author of The 150 Healthiest Foods on Earth, talked about our need for good quality supplements. He said “we don’t NEED indoor plumbing and do we want minimum-wage health or optimal health?” Jonny had a lot of good stuff to say about heart disease and cholesterol. “If you are taking statin medications, add CoQ10 right away!” and that “red yeast rice must also be taken with CoQ10.” But he ended by saying “I don’t think lowering cholesterol is important, rather worry about inflammation”. I’m so on board with this approach.

Leanne Ely said “Cooking a meal for someone is an act of love”. She shared great information on the dangers of GMOs. She also talked about her very affordable hard clay water filtration system that makes pond water potable. It’s called the Berkefeld, was created during World War II and lasts years and years! I’m definitely going to look into this one!

Dr. Alan Christianson is author of The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Thyroid Disease and his interview about thyroid health was so informative! Something that I found so interesting was this: if you have an underactive thyroid, too much thyroid support can actually lead to worse symptoms. There is a delicate balance for you to feel ideal.

There are still many great speakers yet to come so please do join us. The best part is this – if you listen live (or listen to the 24 hour replays) there’s no cost to attend. If you’d like to purchase recordings or transcripts, you have this option too.

It’s happening right here, on your computer or telephone. And you can participate from anywhere in the world.

This series is top-quality cutting-edge health advice from amazing practitioners and everyone needs to hear this information! I am thrilled and honored that Robin and Dr Anna have asked me to be one of their 25 expert speakers. I’ll be sharing how to overcome midlife anxiety with a nutritional and lifestyle approach – so you can say goodbye to anxiety, stress, overwhelm, panic attacks, mood swings, depression and sugar cravings.
