  • Ep 6 - Immunology, Gut Microbes, and You
    Nov 4 2022

    The past 2-3 years have provided all of us with a hands-on crash course in immunology. But what is immunology, exactly, and how does it influence our daily life?

    This Inherited Wellness podcast episode answers all of those questions and more through an amazing conversation with Dr. Heather Zwickey, an internationally-recognized immunology speaker, researcher, and teacher.

    We discuss SO many topics in this episode, including:

    * The basics of the immune system (3:28)

    * Autoimmune diseases (10:05)

    * How simple things like diet, sleep, and exercise modulate our immune system (15:16)

    * How our birth experience (vaginal vs C-section) influences our body’s microbiome (22:43)

    * Are probiotics really helpful? (27:50)

    * Ways that our environment influences our health (30:26)

    * How our immune system evolves throughout our lifespan (26:22)

    * The crucial decision that we need to make each day (45:46)

  • Ep 5 - Scoliosis is a Superpower
    Jul 21 2022

    For some, a diagnosis of scoliosis may limit the types of activities one can do. For others, a curved or rotated spine propels them to make amazing positive influences on the world. Beth Terranova, PT, DPT is one of those who, even while living with scoliosis, has competed in Olympic-style weightlifting. She joins the Inherited Wellness podcast to share her experience with scoliosis and journey to become a scoliosis-specific physical therapist (1:52). She walks us through the different types of scoliosis (12:52), how scoliosis influences families (24:27), how to navigate a diagnosis of scoliosis (29:49), and more about empowering ourselves and others, even with scoliosis.
