In this episode of Appalachian Wellness Connection, Dr. Kevin Britt and Dr. Micheal Bryan dive into the frustrating world of neuropathy—why the conventional treatments so often fall short, and what’s really going on beneath the surface. They uncover the common root causes that are often missed, like mitochondrial dysfunction, metabolic stress, and chronic inflammation.

You'll hear how they take a functional, brain-based approach to helping patients restore nerve function—through targeted nutrition, blood sugar regulation, mitochondrial support, and strategic chiropractic interventions.

🔍 Topics include:

• Why numbness, tingling, and burning are signals—not diagnoses
• How mitochondrial health plays a central role in nerve repair
• Why circulation and inflammation matter more than you think
• The multi-modal approach to supporting real nerve regeneration

If you’ve been told to “just live with it,” this episode offers a new path forward.

Sunlight isn’t just about vitamin D — it’s information for your brain.

In this episode, we explore how light acts as a powerful signal to the hypothalamus — the master control center for your hormones, sleep, mood, metabolism, and more.

You’ll learn:

• ☀️ How sunlight sets your internal clock through the brain’s SCN
• 🧠 Why your hypothalamus depends on morning light to function properly
• 🌙 How artificial light at night confuses your biology
• 🔄 Simple, no/low-cost strategies to reset your circadian rhythm and reclaim your energy, sleep, and hormonal health

We also share real patient stories and practical tips to help you create a light environment that supports healing — not stress.

If you’ve been feeling out of rhythm, this episode can help you sync your brain with the sun — and shift your health from surviving to thriving.

Your hypothalamus is the CEO of your brain — calling the shots for your sleep, stress response, hormones, metabolism, and more. But modern life often pulls this powerful system out of sync with how it’s designed to function.

In this episode, we explore:

• 🧠 What the hypothalamus actually does (and why it matters)
• 🌙 How stress, poor sleep, artificial light, and irregular routines throw it off balance
• 🔄 Simple, science-backed strategies to reset your hypothalamus and restore your body’s natural rhythms

We’ll also share practical tools for improving energy, mood, hormonal balance, and long-term health — all by working with your brain’s biology instead of against it.

If you feel like your system is stuck in “survival mode,” this is your roadmap back to balance.
