Having an eye on your whole health in the age of blue-light screens with Dr Rani Banik

Send us a textThis week's guest is Dr. Rani Banik, America's Integrative Eye Doctor. She is a board-certified ophthalmologist and fellowship-trained neuro-ophthalmologist with additional training in Functional Medicine. Dr. Rani focuses on the root cause of eye diseases and uses integrative strategies for conditions of the visual system, to treat & manage them naturally. During the Pandemic often our only connection with the world was through the screen and Dr Rani noticed a sizeable increase in the visual problems of her patients. And that is just the top of the iceberg in terms of other factors in modern life that are affecting our eye health. Migraines & Macular degeneration and becoming increasingly common. And that makes life and work more challenging.Dr Rani herself went through a period of extreme stress and noticed that her migraines got worse, compounded by an unhelpful diet of processed foods. She sought help from the conventional medical profession but the medications didn't help so she turned to functional medicine for help. The transformation in her health drove her to study and combine functional medicine and ophthalmology, and this paved the way to being able to treat her patients effectively on a whole new level.The beauty of how she helps people is that it puts our good health in our own hands.  So much of keeping our body in good working order is to be mindful of our lifestyle and dietary factors. Dr Rani believes it takes courage to change old habits and unhelpful beliefs, but when we do, we have our good choices to thank for better health and wellness. Thank you so much Dr Rani for shedding light on the issues that lead to poor eye health and what we can do to look after our eyes in order that they work with and not against us for the longterm, so that we may stay healthy and effective in our businesses.You can find out more about Dr Rani’s work on https://rudranibanikmd.com/And follow her on Instagram @dr.ranibanikJoin Lou on Linkedin, or sign up to her mailing list for her newsletter and a free bite-size short course on how to be a podcast guest.
