It’s that time of year where many of us feel a little uneasy due to holiday travel (Or our in laws. Or Aunt Sally. Or both.), but some of us get more physically ill than others when we travel. We take on a question from a listener about what can be done to prevent and treat all types of motion sickness.

Plus, we breakdown ALL of our mood support supplements and what they're designed to help with. Get the relief you need from holiday stressors and avoid suffering through another Blue Christmas!

We generally try to avoid politics because being healthy shouldn't be political, but the "Make America Healthy Again" push has made the topic unavoidable! The brothers spend some time talking through the ideas and solutions that may be coming to our country. Will they actually help or is it just more empty promises?

Our Probiotic Essentials are the most customized product on our site and for good reason! Joey DiMatteo (PharmD, CCN) takes us into the details of creating a customized probiotic. Why it was necessary, and why nothing else on the market comes close!

Also, how long would YOU survive alone in the woods? Is a couple years of cub scouts an asset? Do Pinewood Derby skills translate to foraging for berries? Place your bets!

As youth football season winds down, we tackled the benefits and risks associated with kids playing sports. Does it teach them to love exercise or set them up for life-long consequences they can't imagine?

Joey DiMatteo (PharmD, CCN) gives an in-depth look at Daily Essentials, our custom designed multivitamin. What's in it and why is it there? Who needs it (spoiler: everyone) and normal usage.

Behind the Counter, we celebrate the Nobel Prize in Chemistry going to scientists who taught computers how to predict the shape of proteins. How cool is that? Plus, we're starting to understand why one food makes your tummy feel terrible while your friend is unaffected. It's your gut microbiome!

With so much happening in the world, it's not surprising that we have become more divided than ever before. We may not be able to fix politics, but they shouldn't keep us from talking to our friends and family. How can we engage in these difficult conversations? Josiah takes a stab at addressing the inevitable elephant in the room and discuss the best way to tackle those sticky subjects with the goal of improved relationships.

Joey DiMatteo (PharmD, CCN) gives us a complete break-down of what exactly is in Omega 3 Essentials and why they're the best fish oil on the market. He talks about who should take them, why, and best dosages and timing. Turns out there's a reason cheap fish oils are... well... cheap!

Behind the Counter, we discuss the link between sodium and dermatitis. Could salt really be making you itch? Some people just have bad genetics. You can't pick your parents, but your lifestyle may offset genetics by a startling amount!

What do meat and Type 2 diabetes have in common? A huge new study says meat consumption (including chicken) could increase the risk of Type 2 diabetes. Is there something to this or is it just nonsense? We chew this one to the bone!

Plus, in other unbelievable news, an incredible new gene therapy has literally restored sight to the blind! That and more in this episode!

Plus, we celebrate the amazing, inspiring story of Professor Richard Scolyer, the cancer researcher that made incredible breakthroughs in Melanoma... before being diagnosed with a glioblastoma (brain cancer).
