Send us a textThe appendix's hidden role and how "good" parasites like helminths shape immune health.Episode Summary: Dr. William Parker discusses gut anatomy, the appendix's role in harboring beneficial bacterial biofilms and immune tissue, and how modern hygiene depletes helminths (intestinal worms), causing immune overreactions like allergies, autoimmunity, and psychiatric conditions. He explores helminth self-therapy for treating relapsing MS, depression, and allergies; challenges in clinical trials due to patent issues; and why COVID-19 was milder in low-income, helminth-rich regions.About the guest: William Parker, PhD conducted research at Duke University for over 27 years on immunology, appendicitis, and the hygiene hypothesis. After retiring from Duke, he serves as a visiting scholar at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, leading efforts on biome reconstitution via helminths.Discussion Points:Appendix is not vestigial; it concentrates immune tissue and biofilms to cultivate good gut bacteria, preventing pathogens via mucus and IgA antibodies.Hygiene hypothesis: Soap, toilets, and clean water reduce helminths/protozoa, leading to untrained, hyperactive immunity and rising allergies/autoimmunity since the 1800s.Helminths (worms) stimulate immune "exercise," training immunity; biohackers use hookworms (cheap, skin-entry), porcine whipworms, or rat tapeworms orally for relief from allergies, MS flares, depression/anxiety.Effects are temporary; need ongoing exposure (e.g., replenish every 6 months); immigrants from helminth-rich areas develop Western diseases within a few years.COVID-19: Hyper-immunity caused severe reactions in hygienic West, but helminth presence in low-income Africa/Asia prevented cytokine storms, leading to empty clinics.Therapy barriers: Non-patentable organisms require $100M+ trials; push for open-source, government-funded biome restoration over crude immunosuppressants.Related episode:M&M 144: Inflammation, Innate Immunity, Allergies & Allergens, Immune System Evolution, Fasting & Metabolism | Clare Bryant*Not medical advice.Support the showAffiliates: Seed Oil Scout: Find restaurants with seed oil-free options, scan food products to see what they're hiding, with this easy-to-use mobile app. KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + electrolytes formulated for kidney health.

Robyn Lao knows first hand how challenging it can be to eat at restaurants when living with food allergies. Since her nine-year-old daughter Addie was diagnosed with several life-threatening food allergies as an infant, the family has generally avoided eating out. So when the family recently ventured out to a local restaurant for a meal, they were blown away by the clarity and transparency the menu provided regarding food allergens.That experience inspired the Lao family to introduce ADDE's bill, which would require restaurants in California to label menu items that contain any of the 9 major food allergens.

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend! I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks… Nishan: It is extremely rare to find a genuine healer in this day and age. I am still trying to filter through the massive amounts of lies and deception regarding the prostate. Our food and water supply is saturated with chemicals and hormone disruptors. What can I take that will neutralize and eliminate all the crap in my body and rebalance my hormones ? Is there something that will shrink the prostate and crush the multi million dollar industry that's making money off of this illness that is plaguing men ? Anonymous: I have listened to all your podcasts on both allergies and EBV/viruses. I am in the recovery phase from getting EBV in Dec 2023 (27 yo F, had 104+°F fever for 14+ days). I follow all your protocols and have been trying best to support my recovery. However, the allergens here have been hitting me very severely since getting EBV and causing alot of inflammation. I want to try sublingual allergy drops but want to know your advice for when it would be best to start them in relation to my recovery? Could I start them now, or would it be too much for my immune system to handle? If not, what would be a good indication from my body for when I might be ready to start them? I deeply appreciate all you do for this community Anonymous: Good morning! Could you please do a podcast going over the differences between cryotherapy vs cold plunges and the unique benefits of each (and who each method might benefit or contraindications)? For example, I notice that cryo makes me feel very relaxed during and afterwards and helps alot with my stress and inflammation - however, cold plunges are a huge stressor on my nervous system and make my stress hormones increase (which I don't feel from cryo). Even though they are both cold therapies, there appear to be differences in how they affect the body, since one provides me benefit whereas the other does not (for me personally). Could you please explain this? Kimberly: Hello Dr. Cabral, Am I allowed to include black, green and greek olives in my first 21 days? (minus the first 2 liquid diet days of each week) of course. I look forward to beginning my 21 day detox this coming Monday. Thank you, Kimberly Tin: I am 15 weeks pregnant and I am taking my time to learn more about prenatal and maternity health. I'm curious what are your thoughts about Oral Glucose Tolerance Test? It usually contains 75g of sugar in the solution and taken after fasting. I'm a bit concerned about this much sugar plus the colorings added to that. My OB said this is required to test for gestational diabetes but heard that test can come out false and inaccurate. My FBS and HbA1c are all good, I take supplements and workout, so I think I have low risk. What are other alternatives for this that has less risk to my body? Thank you again for all that you do. Senna: Hi doctor Cabral, I live in Europe and the European Unition has new rules for retinol usage. They have set a maximum concentration of 0.3% for facial products and 0.05% for body products, in order to mitigate potential health risks associated with excessive retinol exposure. Do you know why they did this, and what these health risks are. I love using my 1% retinol serum and am pretty alarmed by this. Thanks so much for your answer!
