The First Lady of Nutrition Podcast with Ann Louise Gittleman, Ph.D., C.N.S.

Listen Online: About this episode: The First Lady of Nutrition welcomes Tamera Campbell, a dear friend and revered acquaintance. Tamera is the founder of E3LIVE, and the conversation begins in a remote mountain lake in southern Oregon—one of the only places in the world where a rare, nutrient-dense blue-green algae can be harvested sustainably. In this episode, Tamera shares the story behind E3LIVE and explains what makes its signature ingredient, Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (AFA), so special—from its exceptional purity and rigorous testing to its unique ability to support brain function, mental clarity, immune health, digestion, and cellular nourishment. Ann Louise and Tamera also explore why professional and recreational athletes have gravitated toward AFA for its natural anti-inflammatory properties, recovery support, and sustained energy. They break down the science behind blue-green algae’s rare blue pigment—sometimes called the “molecule of love” for how it interacts with the brain—and explain why it’s gentle enough for children and infants, yet effective for those with high physical demands.   Learn more about E3Live at https://e3live.com/?bg_ref=rZg8FMANhuThe post The Extraordinary Power of Blue-Green Algae first appeared on Ann Louise Gittleman, PhD, CNS.

Listen Online: About this episode: The First Lady of Nutrition welcomes Dr. Jeremy Chatfield, DDS of Northwest Natural Dentistry, for a fascinating deep dive into one of the most overlooked foundations of detox and overall health: sleep. Dr. Chatfield (a/k/a The Sleep Dentist) explains why activating the brain for peak detoxification begins with high-quality sleep—and how hidden sleep-breathing disorders can quietly push the body into a constant fight-or-flight state. Together, Ann Louise and Dr. Chatfield unpack the surprising role of tongue ties (a major yet often missed cause of sleep apnea and snoring), why nasal breathing is essential for brain and body repair, and how airway dysfunction can ripple into everything from fatigue to inflammation. Listeners will learn how modern solutions like orthodontics, laser therapy, and myofunctional exercises can restore proper breathing—and why nutrition plays a pivotal role in calming airway irritation. Ann Louise also highlights her go-to natural antihistamine, Luteolin, which outperforms many over-the-counter options without the unwanted side effects. If you’ve been struggling with poor sleep, snoring, mouth breathing, or unexplained fatigue, this episode offers practical, actionable insights you won’t want to miss.

With more than 45 years of research under his belt, Dr. Erasmus brings clarity to one of the most confusing topics in nutrition—the truth about seed oils.

You’ll discover how high-heat, solvent extraction methods damage fragile oils, destroy essential nutrients, and leave behind toxic residues that can wreak havoc on your health. Dr. Erasmus also explains why more health damage comes from damaged oils than from any other single factor—and how using the right oils in the right way can transform your energy, metabolism, and longevity. Learn why fresh, organic, cold-pressed oils are vital, why you should never fry with them, and how to store them properly to protect their healing power.
