I’m going to ask President Trump about his views on nutrition. Just kidding. Saturday is April Fool’s Day. My guest, Bill Sardi, is a genius nutrition expert, prolific passionate author and supplement formulator first class. I ask about a nutrient shown in some studies to reverse Parkinson’s disease. I also want to know about food choices that increase the risk of Polycystic Ovary Disease STUDY. I will ask how to know if you have selected the best multivitamin. Listeners will want to know that a highly-advertised vision supplement only slows the progression of macular degeneration and makes it even worse for some groups.

Last Week Follow-up |
|||
We covered two related topics this week. First up was Sandy Woodruff, MS, RD who is a co-author of Dr. Vlassara’s AGE-Less Diet: How a Chemical in the Foods We Eat Promotes Disease, Obesity, and Aging and the Steps We Can Take to Stop It. “AGE” is a pun. It is obviously a measure of our getting older. But, they are also initials that describe something worrisome affecting our blood cells and our food. We discussed simple ways to reduce AGE’s such as changing the way we cook food. Link here to a study that Sandy co-authored which explains AGE. Then I was joined by Tom Monte, author of: Unexpected Recoveries: Seven Steps to Healing Body, Mind, & Soul When Serious Illness Strikes. This book is based on his having talked with many hundreds of people who have overcome life-threatening illnesses, including end-stage cancers, heart disease, severe diabetes, metabolic syndrome, and other diseases using complementary healing methods.
