#030 Dr. Robert Melillo – Primitive reflexes, ADD, Autism - A different view on the brain

In this episode I am speaking with Dr. Robert Melillo.One of the most respected specialists in childhood neurological disorders in America, Dr. Robert Melillo has been helping children overcome learning disabilities for over 30 years. His areas of expertise include: autism spectrum disorders, PDD/NOS, ADD/ADHD, OCD, dyslexia, Asperger’s, Tourette’s, bipolar disorder, and other mental, attention, behavioral and learning disorders. He is also an expert in diet, nutrition and neuroimmune disorders in children and adults.

We all have heard about the vagus nerve and maybe even know about the poly vagal theory. There are many theories out there of how the brain works, but little give us insight in how to actually treat patients with syndromes like ADD, autism, delayed development problems etc.. One of the key findings is the concept of retained primitive reflexes in adults, which got me (Daniel Sentker) interested in Dr. Melillos Method. These reflexes tested positive on myself which led me down this route and helped me tremendously. This is a fascinating episode to get a glimpse of what we can do today to help people with a functional disconnected nervous system. Dr. Melillo has written some great books about this topic and also teaches an in depth course. One book is called “Disconnected kids” which is a great way to start this journey. You find out more on this website.

Work&Play = Everyday

The blue light filter goggles Work&Play from Lichtblock surprised me in a positive way. The glasses not only offer effective protection against harmful blue light, but are also extremely comfortable to wear. The design is modern and appealing, and the lenses are of high quality.

I wear the glasses both at work on the computer and in my free time and could clearly feel how my eyes were less strained. The glasses have protected my eyes from dryness and fatigue and helped me to see better and feel more focused.

The glasses are also very robust and well made. I am convinced of the quality and benefits of the Work&Play and can recommend them to anyone who spends long hours in front of screens.
Best regards
Felix

Great for work and TV in the evening

I am very satisfied. The glasses filter blue light very well. They also feel very comfortable for the eyes. I usually use them in the evening when watching TV or when office work lasts longer into the evening. I haven't had any more eye pain since then.

Perfect combination for evenings and studying

I sleep much better when I put my glasses on from 4 pm. In addition, the vision is hardly "yellowish" and you can see almost everything normally.

Fall asleep faster, sleep better through the night

After ordering the glasses, they arrived at my home just 2 days later.
Wear them every evening for 2 hours before going to bed and feel DEEPLY that my body comes to rest, my eyes turn off and I become more tired.
The first evening was of course a bit unusual, due to the fact that everything is perceived more orange. From the 2nd evening, however, this was no longer a problem. Even when watching movies, I do not feel any impairment by the colored lens, only light blue colors are perceived slightly differently.

Fall asleep much faster and better through the glasses

Evening habit, better sleep

I wear the glasses for almost a month in the evening and find that I fall asleep much better and also through. I am very satisfied, although a wider range of shapes would be nicer.

Super 👍🏻

Beautiful glasses that I no longer want to miss in the evening. My friend watches TV more often in the evening and I read, the light often bothered me. With the glasses everything is much more pleasant.

High quality glasses frame

The Oro is a bit more expensive, but you get a high quality frame that is absolutely robust and can be super adjusted to the head. I already had glasses in light orange and have now bought the Oro in dark orange, because I wanted to improve my sleep even more. I put the glasses on and get tired within 10 minutes. Love them. 👌

Super, pleasant glasses. Totally relaxes the eyes. Sleep is much better. Watching TV is great with the glasses, does not distort the image, you have to get used to the fact that the colors appear warmer (more yellow), but after a short time you get used to it and it is just pleasant. I am now finally no longer pushed up by the television and I go to bed relaxed. Really only to recommend. Such a simple and inexpensive way to improve his quality of life. TOP!!!

Mega excited about the glasses, the eyes are super relaxed and it's just fun to wear the glasses. Also, proximity to all colors more intense. Without glasses everything seems gray.xD

Good sleep

I have the feeling that my sleep quality has improved somewhat and fall asleep I now "do" within minutes.
Thought I have also my 16 year old son now to order one! ;)

The glasses look awesome and fit very well. The glasses help my eyes relax a bit if I am infront of the screen most of the day. Awesome product!
