    Burning, Numbness, Stabbing Pain? Here’s How to Fix Your Neuropathy | Dr. Mandell

    Burning, stabbing pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness in the hands and feet are common signs of nerve irritation or neuropathy. These symptoms often come from inflammation, high blood sugar, vitamin deficiencies, toxins, or damage to the protective myelin sheath around your nerves. The good news is nerves can respond to the right nutritional support. In this video, Dr. Mandell explains the key nutrients and natural compounds that help calm nerve inflammation, support nerve repair, improve blood sugar control, and protect the myelin sheath. You’ll learn about • Turmeric and curcumin for nerve inflammation • B vitamins for nerve function and repair • Omega 3 fatty acids for nerve regeneration • Vitamin D and myelin support • Alpha lipoic acid for diabetic nerve pain • Magnesium for nerve calming and muscle relaxation These are science-backed ways to support nerve health naturally. ********************************* Please share this video with your friends and family.

    Put This Under Your Tongue for 30 Seconds to Help Your Body Rebalance | Dr. Mandel

    What if something as simple as placing a tiny amount of a natural mineral under your tongue could help your body find better balance in under a minute. The area under the tongue is one of the fastest absorption pathways in the body, rich in capillaries that allow certain substances to enter circulation quickly without going through digestion first. This is the same pathway used for sublingual B12 and emergency heart medications. In this video, Dr. Mandell explains how a micro amount of Himalayan salt under the tongue may act as a fast sensory signal to the nervous system. This is not about supplementing minerals or treating a deficiency. It is about gently stimulating the body’s regulatory systems that influence breathing patterns, muscle tension, digestion, and overall physiological balance. Many people report feeling subtle shifts such as relaxed jaw muscles, easier breathing, reduced tension, or fewer cravings within seconds. These sensations may reflect changes in autonomic nervous system tone, especially the parasympathetic system, which supports rest, recovery, and internal balance. This simple technique is quick, accessible, and easy to try. It is not a treatment or medical therapy, but a way to better understand how responsive your body can be to small inputs. Try it mindfully and notice how your body responds. Always consult your healthcare professional if you are on sodium restrictions or have medical conditions. ********************************* Please share this video with your friends and family.

    Ringing in Your Ears? Do This Before Anything Else | Dr. Mandell

    If you hear ringing, buzzing, hissing, or roaring in your ears and no one else hears it, you are not imagining it. Tinnitus is often linked to stress chemistry in the brain, glutamate overactivity, inner ear dysfunction, inflammation, and neural overstimulation. When stress rises, glutamate, an excitatory neurotransmitter, increases in the auditory cortex. At the same time, calming inhibitory neurotransmitters like GABA may decrease. This imbalance can amplify auditory signaling and make the brain “turn up the volume,” which many experts believe contributes to the perception of tinnitus. Taurine is an amino acid shown to support GABA activity, reduce oxidative stress, modulate glutamate signaling, and provide neuroprotective effects within the auditory system. While not a cure, it may help calm neural overstimulation and support auditory health when used appropriately. In this video, I also demonstrate simple neurological stimulation techniques and lifestyle strategies that may help reduce symptom intensity naturally. Always consult your healthcare provider before starting any supplement, especially if you are taking medications. Selected Scientific References: Oestreicher E, Arnold W, Ehrenberger K, Felix D.

    Epidural Steroid Injections are Dangerous for Neck and Back Pain Relief -- Dr Mandell

    Epidural injections is a big business for many doctors. Injections take no more than 10 minutes to carry on the procedure and the expense can be up to $2000.00. Many doctors recommend this too early before a complete physical therapy program is completed. There are many dangers...Infection, paralysis, stroke and death are just a few. Be careful when it comes to your health and seek other opinions before you take this risk. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    FIX YOUR COLLAPSING ARCH BEFORE IT RUINS YOUR KNEES | Dr. Mandell

    If your foot rolls inward, your arch is collapsing and that changes everything above it. Excessive pronation can rotate the tibia inward, drive the knee into valgus, alter hip mechanics, and increase stress on the plantar fascia. Over time this may contribute to plantar fasciitis, bunions, tendon strain, knee pain, and lower back discomfort. In this video, I show you three simple progressive exercises to strengthen the intrinsic foot muscles, activate the posterior tibialis, and rebuild your medial arch naturally without relying on orthotics. You will learn how to lift the arch correctly, integrate it into movement, and train the muscles that prevent collapse during walking. Control it sitting. Strengthen it standing. Integrate it through motion. Build a stronger foundation from the ground up. ********************************* Please share this video with your friends and family.

    Drink This Before Breakfast and Your Body Starts Healing All Day | Dr. Mandell

    What you drink BEFORE your first meal may determine how your body responds for the rest of the day. This simple morning elixir combines chia seeds, Ceylon cinnamon, and fresh lemon to support blood sugar control, insulin sensitivity, digestive regularity, microbiome health, satiety, lipid balance, and metabolic efficiency. When consumed 10 to 15 minutes before your first meal, the soluble fiber in chia seeds forms a viscous gel that slows gastric emptying and reduces post-meal glucose spikes. This helps improve insulin response, reduce cravings, and support sustained energy. Cinnamon has been shown to enhance insulin sensitivity and improve fasting glucose markers. Lemon provides citric acid and polyphenols that support liver function, digestive motility, and antioxidant balance. This is not a miracle. It is physiology. Drink it consistently. Let your body respond. Ingredients: 1 cup water 1 heaping tablespoon chia seeds 1/2 lemon, freshly squeezed 1/2 teaspoon Ceylon cinnamon Blend for 10 seconds. Drink 10 to 15 minutes before your first meal. Science-Backed References: Vuksan V, Jenkins AL, Rogovik AL, et al.

    Flatten Your Lower Belly (Without More Exercise) Dr. Mandell

    If your lower belly is the last thing to flatten no matter how hard you try, the answer may not be more crunches or more cardio. Lower abdominal fat is hormonally sensitive and responds strongly to insulin and cortisol. When insulin stays elevated too often from constant snacking, refined carbohydrates, sugary drinks, or lack of metabolic breaks between meals, fat burning is suppressed. Lipolysis and high insulin cannot occur at the same time. Add chronic stress and poor sleep, and the body preferentially stores fat in the abdominal region. In this video, we break down the physiology behind stubborn lower belly fat and what actually shifts the hormonal environment. Learn how creating metabolic space between meals, prioritizing protein and soluble fiber, improving sleep quality, supporting the microbiome, and stabilizing stress hormones can help restore metabolic flexibility. When insulin falls and cortisol stabilizes, hormone-sensitive lipase activates, allowing stored fat to be released and used for energy. This is not about extreme dieting. It’s about changing the biological signals your body responds to. Always consult your healthcare professional before making dietary or lifestyle changes. 🔹 PubMed-Style References Boden G.

    You Won’t Feel This Until It’s Too Late. Heart Disease Starts Silent. / Dr. Mandell

    Heart disease remains the leading cause of death worldwide, largely driven by atherosclerosis, LDL oxidation, inflammation, insulin resistance, and endothelial dysfunction. In this video, I explain how specific foods like oats rich in beta-glucans, fatty fish high in omega-3s, extra virgin olive oil, nuts, legumes, berries, leafy greens high in dietary nitrates, and dark chocolate containing flavonoids help reduce LDL cholesterol, lower triglycerides, improve nitric oxide production, enhance endothelial function, and support healthy blood flow. These dietary strategies help reduce plaque progression naturally without medication by improving lipid metabolism, reducing inflammation, and supporting vascular integrity. Lifestyle factors including exercise, sleep, stress reduction, and minimizing refined sugars further improve cholesterol balance and cardiovascular health.

    Squatting Causes Disc Degeneration Leading to Disk Herniations and Pinched Nerve / Dr Mandell

    Discs are composed of fibrocartilage in the annulus fibrosis and a nucleus pulposis in the center. Excessive force and load to these discs causes shearing of the fibers leading to disc degeneration and tearing. During these phases the person is usually asymptomatic until nerve root / pinching occurs in the later phases. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    Do This Before Bed for 5 Nights — You Won’t Believe the Difference | Dr. Mandell

    Are you going to bed feeling heavy, sluggish, or just not quite right after a long day of eating and stress? Your digestive system works around the clock, especially at night, and when it slows down you may wake up feeling bloated, uncomfortable, or low on energy. In this video, I share a simple five night bedtime drink that supports natural digestive movement, hydration, and regular elimination using ingredients you likely already have at home. This combination of chia seeds, fresh lemon juice, olive oil, and warm water works together to support gut motility, lubrication of the intestinal tract, and healthy fiber expansion. Soak one tablespoon of chia seeds in warm water for 10 to 15 minutes until they form a gel, add the juice of half a lemon and one tablespoon of olive oil, stir well, and drink before bed for five consecutive nights. Chia seeds provide soluble fiber that expands and supports bowel regularity, olive oil helps gently lubricate the intestines, lemon supports digestive activity, and warm water encourages natural movement through the digestive tract. Many people notice improved elimination, reduced bloating, and a lighter, more comfortable feeling within just a few days. Drink plenty of water during the day and focus on whole, unprocessed foods while doing this five night reset, and if digestive discomfort persists, consult your healthcare provider. ********************************* Please share this video with your friends and family.
