Midlife Conversations with Natalie Jill

Hey! It is Natalie Jill! Today on Midlife Conversations I am chatting with Dr. Ramin Tabib and Dr. Elisa Mello about amalgam fillings. This old and outdated tooth restoration technique from the 1800s uses mercury, one of the most toxic substances for humans. While it's banned in some countries, it's still allowed in the US, likely because the American Dental Association (ADA) was built around it. In the past, barbers often replaced amalgam fillings, creating an economic need to protect the industry and ensure dentists had work. If the ADA were to admit that amalgams are harmful, it would lead to a flood of lawsuits. Additionally, because the metal in the fillings expands differently than teeth do, it causes tiny cracks, leading to more mercury leakage, tooth fractures, and decay. This sets us up for even more dental work in the future. In this episode, you will learn: All About Amalgam Fillings Porcelain Fused to Metal (PFM) Crowns The connection between dental health and overall wellness Advancements in dental implant materials Should you be using fluoride Pros & Cons of Root Canals Whether or not to get veneers and MORE!

Hey! It is Natalie Jill! Today on Midlife Conversations I am chatting with Caroline Pearce about Vibrational training, something I've been instinctively practicing for years without fully grasping its benefits. Initially, I was drawn to it for its soothing effects, especially as I dealt with disc issues in my lower back.

Hey! It is Natalie Jill! Today on Midlife Conversations I am chatting with Matt Gallant and Wade Lightheart from BIOptimizers to discuss the importance of factors like HCL, probiotics, and more in our diets. Wade, once a vegetarian, and Matt, originally on keto, had their paths converge. Despite popular belief that diet reigns supreme, what truly matters is understanding how nutrition functions. A critical assumption prevails among nutritionists: that everything consumed is effectively utilized by the body. However, this is far from reality. Even with the highest quality food, effective breakdown and absorption are essential for nutrients to enter the bloodstream and provide fuel. In this episode, you will learn: Optimal health is about what we DIGEST, not just what we eat The importance of gut health and digestion in midlife issues Why BiOptimizers takes gut health and digestion so seriously The concept of enzymes and probiotics in aiding digestion Misconceptions around bloating and gas Learn more about Matt Gallant and Wade Lightheart at: Matt Gallant IG: https://www.instagram.com/mattgallant/?hl=en Matt Gallant Website: http://mattgallant.tv/3x/ Wade Lightheart IG: https://www.instagram.com/wadelightheart/?hl=en Get the Digestion Stack I carry with me daily HERE Watch this episode on YOUTUBE HERE: https://www.youtube.com/@nataliejillfitness Read the Blog about the episode HERE: https://www.midlifeconversations.com/blog/ Want to listen in on a LIVE recording of Midlife Conversations?

Hey! It is Natalie Jill! Today on Midlife Conversations I am chatting with Jason Prall about Sleep, Longevity, and the Foundation of Disease. Back in 2018, through his independent research as a practitioner, he initiated The Human Longevity Project – a 9-part film series – exploring the true origins of chronic disease. This is what impressed me about Jason. When it comes to illness, it's not just about what's visible on the surface. It's not always just "hormones" or "aging" or any single factor. There's a wide spectrum of underlying contributors that we need to uncover and understand to define our concept of "health.
