Description
Angela talks with Antony Haynes, a registered nutritional therapist with over 28 years of clinical experience and expertise. He is best known for his early implementation of the principles of Functional Medicine and as the author of the bestselling books ‘The Insulin Factor’ and ‘The Food Intolerance Bible’
Understanding more about the science behind how to optimise your health and performance is key and Antony discusses how to nourish your cells for better resilience and why achieving balance and connecting with yourself are vital in resolving stress and reaching peak mental performance
KEY TAKEAWAYS
When you nourish your cells you have better cellular resilience, if you have more cellular resilience you have more organ resilience
The world in which we exist is created by the thoughts that we have
We need to achieve a balance between stimulating and calming neurotransmitters
Neurotransmitters influence the signalling to the hypothalamus and pituitary gland, the composer and conductor of the hormonal system
The most powerful excitatory neurotransmitter is glutamate with GABA and serotonin the main inhibitory neurotransmitters
In a 24 hour period you need a balance of parasympathetic dominance and sympathetic dominance
The more hours you have ‘on’ the more you deplete the neurotransmitters of calm - GABA
Concentrating on your breathing and gratitude can make a massive difference when you are experiencing a stressful situation
Inflammation directly stops serotonin creation in the brain
Ultra-processed food by definition is devoid of nourishment and the more ultra-processed food you have the more inflammation there will be
Taurine is a powerful antioxidant and a precursor to GABA that works together with magnesium
Excess stress directly impends the ability of magnesium to get back inside the cells
Stress defeats magnesium and when you are stressed magnesium can’t get back into your cells
BEST MOMENTS
‘By optimally nourishing yourself you improve your resilience on every level’
‘Breathing out instantly engages the parasympathetic system’
‘Magnesium is nature’s way of resolving stress’
‘You must spend time connecting with yourself’

ABOUT THE GUEST
Antony Haynes BA(Hons) DipION mBANT, CNHC, mIFM
Antony has been in private practice for over 29 years and is one of the most experienced Registered Nutritional Therapists in the country. He is one of the first practitioners to implement the principles of Functional Medicine in the UK, since 1992.
Antony has seen over 18.000 clients and has learned much from the experiences. Each person is unique and has taught Antony that principles are what count not protocols. In addition to learning from his clients, Antony has also researched and then presented on multiple different subjects over the 28 years he has been teaching.
Over the past decade, Antony has focused much clinical & research time on addressing chronic hidden viral infections, and in particular their relevance to contributing to auto-immune conditions. He has met hundreds of clients with viral infections that have been identified with lab tests. He has witnessed improvements in the vast majority of clients after recommending a variety of remedies and natural substances to help his clients’ immune systems to function more capably vs viruses.
Meditation and spiritual awareness is a part of Antony’s everyday life and is essential to enable Antony to make the most appropriate choices for clients; it is not just technical knowledge that counts.
Antony is also a successful, award-winning author of two books on nutrition, The Insulin Factor (published in the UK 2004 and in the USA) and The Food Intolerance Bible (published in the UK 2005 and in Taiwan & Romania), and has appeared on television and radio.
In March 2011 Antony was awarded the prestigious CAM Ma
