Hi - there are a lot of people in my circle who are dealing with vertigo and concussions!! Lots of different treatments being tried.
I am presenting with what most people would understand as what a concussion might feel like. Problem is, it has been going on for about 15 years and it isn't typical vertigo nor is it a typical concussion.

And so........always looking for a solution, I found some specialists in this area to do significant testing last week and next week, I will spend 5 days (6 hours a day) re-training how my brain receives signals from my eyes tracking and my brain stem. My cerebellum and brain stem are in the mix.

I put this up - not to bare my stuff - but in case other people can benefit from this type of intervention.

Concussion is the easy public explanation that most people "get"....I have had hours of testing and imaging....the result is that symptoms are presenting what people would understand as a concussion. There is vertigo (not spinning but the feeling of one's body and brain being a lava lamp or you are walking around with someone else's glasses on) - but not from inner ear issues from crystals.

My eyes are not tracking properly and there are chaotic signals between what I see and what my brain processes.
This creates instability, feelings of rocking and swaying and tipping over.

The right branch of my vagus nerve is not firing up.

My lowest score was interpreting sensory information - so DO NOT GO TO COSTCO, airports, concerts, busy shoppng malls, busy/noisy restaurants, etc. Even complex designs in wallpaper and carpets (as an example) trigger imbalance.

Lower brain stem integration is what is breaking down with me. I will be doing neural rehab therapy!

As you may or may not know, these sensations have been an issue for years and I have had 2 significant falls since December that have amplified the sensations.

My eyes and cervical spine are not communicating in sync! So...off to Calgary for intensive training for 5 days - 6 hours a day!
I think it will be fascinating to see how they treat this and what the outcome will be.

I have felt like I've been living Alice's in Wonderland's life and I am pretty sick of it. She was lucky as it ended up being a dream.

Nourishing mitochondria and reducing inflammation with food sources is great for every body and especially important as we add on years. Yes, you can supplement, but food is always recognized by the body and the uptake is so much better than supplements. Sometimes - a good food sourced multi-vitamin/mineral is great insurance when required.

Boost NAD levels: NAD (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a coenzyme that’s vital for mitochondrial function and cellular repair. As you age, NAD levels naturally decline, but you can help replenish them with foods high in niacin, like chicken, tuna, and mushrooms.

Fuel up with CoQ10 and B vitamins: Coenzyme Q10 and B vitamins are essential for mitochondrial energy production. Add foods rich in CoQ10, like fatty fish and organ meats. I don't really eat a lot of organ meats - well none, actually - so I might consider a B supplement but I don't like them. Can't even stand the smell of them in a container. Find them upsetting to one's stomach. My best alternative is to eat pate (which I rarely do) or take a liver capsule - just liver in a capsule.

Add mitochondrial-supporting foods: Foods rich in polyphenols—like berries, green tea, and dark chocolate—contain antioxidants that protect mitochondria from damage. I Love all of these suggestions!

Vitamin D3: Aim for 5000 IUs/day.
Good sources are: Sunlight exposure, fatty fish, fortified dairy products, and egg yolks. Sunlight is best and at some times of the year - very difficult to access here.

Zinc: Aim for 15 to 30 mg/day.
Good food sources are: Meat, shellfish, legumes, seeds, nuts, and dairy.

Magnesium: Aim for 400-420 mg/day (men), 310-320 mg/day (women).
Good food sources are: Pumpkin seeds, almonds, spinach, and dark chocolate.

Omega-3 fats: Aim for 500 mg to 1,000 mg of EPA/DHA. There is a raging controversy out there on taking fish oil and it is a big topic to enter into. Getting oil out of a fish is NOT like getting juice from an orange. Fish oil is heavily processed. Fish sources are scketchy. People tend to overuse Omega 3's and create an inbalance with Omega 6's and 9's. Walnuts and chia are good sources of omega 3's. Olive oil is good for 9's. And we do need some 6's too - so stick with nuts and seeds. There are some clean sources of algae oil/marine oil out there!
Salmon has always been a great source of many nutrients and it is getting more difficult to find wild cauught and the price can be prohibitive. ARGH!!!

Good food sources are: Salmon, mackerel, and sardines.

Bon Appetit

Oh - the monkeys remind us to watch the level of obtrusive noise and consider some silence in your day, don't stay under glaring blue light and screens 14 hours a day - take breaks from that, don't eat crappy food.

I do like a new rabbit hole to go down. Due to some stuff and a pretty substantial crash in the kitchen, I find myself swimming in the land of spagyrics (powerful herbal medicines) and incredible homeopathic potencies (fibonacci and kentian homochords). What does that gibberish mean?? There are powerful and natural medicines out there!! One doesn't always need to look to pharmaceuticals. In fact - look away whenever you can.

I truly understand that in some cases that isn't possible; but peel it back to a bare minimum. And be patient. Healing takes time.

Food for thought. How Functional Medicine can make you "more sick"!!
A number of physicians discussed this concept the other day in my study group and I whole-heartedly agree that it can make you feel worse.
I also will say that there is a place for this kind of diagnostic medicine but functional medicine is really blurring the lines with alopathic medicine and can ramp up the diagnosis and treatment to an over-welhming place.
Many people seeking treatment are already in an overwehlming place. Often depleted.
Take for example a stool test/microbiome test. GI Map is one that is often used by natropaths and functional medicine docs. Genova is another.
What will the results tell you? Every species of bacteria you can test: Ones that you have a HIGH level of and LOW level of. So the general protocol is to kill the bacteria that is HIGH and repopulate the bacteria that is LOW. Trouble is - this formula rarely works long-term.
Specialists/Scientists working in the area of the gut microbiome know that bacteria doesn't re-establish itself. You can take probiotics and eat fermented foods which at best will temporarily give you a transient population of bacteria.
NOT EVERYONE does well with probiotics nor with fermented foods.
We do know that a certain bacteria is very helpful with traveller's diarrehea and diarrehea caused by antibiotic use. But does taking this probiotic while taking anti-biotics make any sense? That really is a question for the ages at this point. You are adding and killing at the same time. Then you may be advised to add in pre-biotics and post-biotics. It can feel like MADNESS!
A GI MAP or Genova Stool test will also give you a whole host of other information to worry about that may not even be relevant to the "state" of your well-being.
This is one test and most functional medicine doctors will give you a test load - hence so much infomation about what is "not great - not "right" - not healthy" and you will be given herbs, hormones, prescriptions, dietary guidelines, etc. And this will cost you a great deal of money and when you are slammed with all of it at once (which is usually the approach), your already vulnerable system can get slammed into a high stress state.
Interesting.
There is some logic to working on one element at a time before adding in another.
Asking your provider perinent questions like:
What can I expect to get from this test?
How will you attempt to address the results of the test?
You may be quoted $300 for a test and now shipping that test si another $80.

Know the cost of what is being sold. As an example: I have been presrcibed approx. $8000 in anti-biotics and herbs to address SIBO to no avail and then add in about $3000 in testing.

Spoiler alert: It didn't work!

There is also great logic in making sure that you are covering the basics of health:
Nutrition
Hydration
Movement
Getting outdoors (grounding and getting natural sunlight))
Sleep (I can tell you that if your gut isn't happy, your sleep will not be optinal)

Start slowly and gently. Don't try to fix the priceless violin with a slegehammer.

Advanced Parkinson's seems to be everywhere. Below are some guidelines to consider:

Foundations that matter most are things like consistent sleep–wake rhythms, lots and lots of sunlight exposure, movement, fascia work as tolerated, stable blood sugar, nutrient-dense food, emotional support, and reducing overall physiological stress. These can all support overall brain and nervous system function alongside it. I’m sure you know I am going to say this but I would get that patient to the equator and sit them on the beach. I feel that’s the best they could do to support their health.

It’s January 1st, and the world feels like it’s waiting for a fresh start. Everywhere you look, there are messages to “reinvent yourself” or “commit to big changes” for the new year.

But here’s a gentle reminder: nature isn’t rushing.

Even though the calendar has turned, the natural world is still in stillness, darkness, and rest. Trees are dormant. Seeds are hidden beneath the soil. Animals are resting, regenerating, and conserving energy.

Spring, when growth and activity return, is still a few months away. Your body and mind are part of this same rhythm. Winter is meant for calmness, reflection, and repair—not for forcing transformation.

It’s okay to rest.

It’s okay to slow down.

It’s okay to honor stillness rather than chasing resolutions.

Big life changes, ambitious goals, and energetic reinventions can wait until the real new year arrives in spring, when nature emerges from hibernation and the energy of growth returns.

Right now, winter invites you to go within:

Happy New Year

I have a touch of the winter grunge....and I actually struggled with slowing down to just rest. It is OK to rest.

I went through a pretty long joe dispenza session and just finished a somatic experiencing session and what that boils down to is:

I have been moving at the pace of a sloth all day. With various teas in between. Sipping them. At a sloth's pace!

So often we try to or sometimes we must push through due to commitments with work, family, etc. But when you get the chance - slow it down and get the benefit of rejuvenation without any guilt.

It actually isn't easy for many of us. I will try to get really good at it!

I took a deep dive into the peptide madness that is everywhere in the health conversation. Don't dive in head first without getting some background. I did peptides in the most hard-core way for 7 months (quite recently, as a matter of fact)under a doctor's close supervision and my stress went up and my bank balance went down. My health picture stayed virtually the same.
I just completed a course with 90-ish docs and natropaths who specialize in Peptide therory and/or treatments. That's a lot of experience to chime in on a topic.
Do not undertake peptide therapy if you are chronically ill without some careful medical guidance (and that does exist out there!!)
Lots of people are using methylation blue with great results in specific circumstances. Not all people. Some people. And why were they drawn to take it in the first place? That is very individualized.
Remeber - just because something is popular does not make it right.
Ok - and I say GOOD DAY!

Is anyone out there eating seasonally and locally? Do you have any tips for what to eat until April??? LOL but not laughing really. It is challenging.

Plastics!! The threat is very real to the planet and to everything on it. See the quote below from Justine Senger. Give it a read and see what you think.......Maybe it really is time to throw out those plastic straws!!

Hey Adele,

This week, I came across a video that honestly stopped me in my tracks.

A nurse who specializes in oncology confidently stated that “drinking from plastic doesn’t matter” and that “there’s no evidence plastics contribute to cancer.”

It’s the kind of statement that perfectly captures what’s broken in modern medicine: a system that sees disease as random mutation instead of cellular communication collapse.

Let’s be clear cancer is not a genetic accident.

Cancer is a mitochondrial disease.

It’s what happens when the very engines that power your cells lose charge, coherence, and the ability to communicate with the environment that created them.

And what drives that loss of charge?

The same environmental chaos we keep telling people doesn’t matter artificial blue light, lack of sunlight, lack of movement, fake food, artificial frequencies, and yes… plastics.

The Physics of Plastic and the Biology of Disconnection
Plastics don’t just harm the planet; they dismantle the very signaling systems that keep us alive.

When you drink from plastic, you’re not just sipping water you’re taking in endocrine-disrupting chemicals like BPA and phthalates that mimic estrogen, scramble hormone receptors, and interfere with mitochondrial communication.

Microplastics have now been found in human blood, lungs, placenta, and even breast milk.

And the research is sobering: these tiny fragments infiltrate cells, disrupt mitochondrial membranes, increase reactive oxygen species, and impair ATP synthesis (your energy currency).

Once your mitochondria lose charge, the cell’s internal guidance system fails; it can no longer tell when to grow, when to rest, when to repair.

That’s the origin of cancer: not “bad genes,” but broken energy flow.

So when someone in oncology says “it doesn’t matter,” they’re not just misinformed they’re defending the very disconnection that keeps people sick.

Cellular Truth
Everything comes back to charge, flow, and coherence.

Plastics block that flow at every level from planetary ecosystems to cellular respiration.

They disconnect biology from the light, minerals, and natural resonance that built it.

Healing is not about erasing disease, it's about rebuilding communication between your mitochondria and your environment.

That starts with simple, powerful choices:

Drink from glass or stainless steel

Reconnect with natural light daily

Choose real food wrapped in nature, not chemistry

And above all, remember that you are an electrical being - not a machine
I say this often because it’s the heart of everything I teach:

You cannot build coherent health in an incoherent environment.

Plastics are more than an environmental issue they are a redox issue, a mitochondrial issue, and ultimately, a human energy crisis.

If medicine continues to separate the human body from its environment, it will keep treating symptoms of a disconnection it refuses to see.

So on that note, I say good day!
