Hellooooo:), welcome back to another episode of the podcast and the start of a new season, which comes with some very important new features: among them, the addition of video format and the presence of very special guests, both on a personal and professional level. And I think there could be no better person to accompany me at this beginning than Dr. Teresa Bas: spine surgeon, expert in the treatment of scoliosis in adults and children, head of the Spine Unit at the La Fe University Hospital in Valencia, associate professor at the University of Valencia and, also, my mother.

We'll also explore lifestyle changes and supplements that can help improve lower back pain, herniated discs, and sciatica, as well as the crucial role of exercise and nutrition in spinal health. And last but not least, we'll discuss the differences in spinal pathology between women and men. I hope you find it useful and learn a lot.

EP 108. Body composition in summer: how not to lose what you have gained.
Hello!!! In today's podcast, I'll try to share tips you can apply to maintain all the health gains you've made with your lifestyle routine throughout the year. This way, if you wish, you can fully enjoy the summer while minimizing the metabolic and overall health losses that can be associated with typical summer routines, where we can't be as diligent with our exercise, diet, and other lifestyle measures. It's not necessary to apply them all, or all at once. The important thing is to be aware of them so that, if we wish, we can apply them. Ideally all of them, but if not, any you can apply, even for just a couple of days, will always be beneficial. Every little helps. Every stone makes a wall. I hope you like it. Big kisses!!

EP 46. Living with Diabetes: Between Management and Freedom.
In this special episode, I'll talk to you about the complexity of diabetes management and try to demystify the idea of "total control" over blood sugar. Through an honest and personal conversation, I'll try to show you why pursuing perfection in glucose levels can be more harmful than beneficial, leading to stress, guilt, and a constant sense of failure. I hope that by listening to me, you'll come to understand how a deep realization that blood sugar management is a delicate dance with your body can set you free, allowing you to live a fuller life. This episode is a powerful reminder that while we may not be able to control every aspect of diabetes, we can learn to navigate its waters with effectiveness and strength.

EP 13. Melatonin: The Forgotten Hormone.
Hello! In today's podcast, I'm talking about the hormone MELATONIN from an unusual perspective.I reflect on its indiscriminate use by the population to chronically "help" sleep, despite it being a hormone. Just as no one would take a hormone like insulin or glucagon lightly, why has taking melatonin become normalized? Additionally, I'll explain where melatonin is produced (you'll be surprised to know the places where it's produced)What functions does the hormone melatonin have besides inducing sleepAre there risks to habitually taking melatonin?Why if you have diabetes or fertility problems, you might not want to take melatonin chronically.In which cases do I recommend melatonin to promote sleep?Why in certain cases and temporarily do I recommend taking melatonin during the day?What supplements do I prefer to recommend to help fall asleep and stay asleep?And a few other reflections in between that you'll only know if you listen to the podcast I hope you enjoy it, remember to subscribe and rate my work on the Podcast so I can reach more people!For any extra questions, check out my INSTAGRAM @isabelvina. There I have many more questions about hormones and metabolism answered!

EP 4. Insulin: Such a "bad" hormone?
¡Hola! Welcome to this new episode of your favorite podcast about hormones, metabolism, and everything in between that can help you. Today I'm bringing you a hormone: INSULIN. Although many people have heard of it and we often think we know everything about it, for me it's one of the most misunderstood aspects of metabolism and the hormonal system.In today's episode, I'll answer frequently asked questions like:Why are carbohydrates "demonized" on social media? Is it because they raise insulin? What's wrong with insulin levels rising? Can I have insulin resistance and be "thin"?Tips to reverse insulin resistance and thus improve its function naturally.What to do to avoid being a sugar "junkie"?And, I'll also share a reflection that I believe will help you a lot to view food, and specifically carbohydrates, in a much healthier way than they are often portrayed on social media.For more information about glucose, insulin, and everything related to hormones and their connection to your health, my Instagram account @isabelvina is your place.I'll see you in the next episode and on my Instagram!For more information, you know you can find me on my Instagram @isabelvina where I share daily content.My TikTok @isabelvinabasOn my YouTube channel YouTube ChannelAnd the supplements formulated by me on my website My Website
