We'd love to hear from you! Click here.Dr. Kathleen Holton is a nutritional neuroscientist and a Provost Associate Professor at American University in Washington, DC. Her research examines the negative effects of dietary excitotoxins on neurological symptoms, as well as the positive protective effects of certain micronutrients on the brain. The most common dietary excitotoxin exposures in the US are from food additives. Dr. Holton’s research is exploring the beneficial effects of removing these additives, while optimizing the nutrient composition of the diet to treat neurological conditions characterized by excitotoxicity, oxidative stress, and neuroinflammation. Her work aims to optimize the use of food as medicine in neurological treatment.See Dr. Holton’s link below.  https://www.american.edu/cas/health/nutrneurolab/Support the showIf you are new to our podcast series, please consider to JOIN THE LOOP with us here - https://aftonhassett.com RESOURCES, UPDATES  & INFORMATION Download your Thriving PlanGuided ImageryProgressive Muscle Relaxation Breath AwarenessPain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT) Emotional Awareness and Expression Therapy (EAET)PainGuide - Self-Management Programhttps://painguide.com/Visit  & Contact us: https://aftonhassett.com/[email protected] you for Staying in the Loop!
