Efforts to encourage more Native Americans to vote are underway in more than a dozen states this year. Chuck Quirmbach reports on how things are going in Wisconsin, ahead of the state primary contests on August 11. The nonpartisan group Wisconsin Native Vote is about a decade old, and is now up to four organizers around the state. They have already been doing outreach at Pow Wows and a variety of other community events. Spokesperson and organizer Anne Egan-Waukau (Menominee) says a key message is that voting is a way to make sure Native voices are heard. “We tell people to vote for the Seventh Generation. That’s what really resonates with people, because our ancestors worked to make sure Mother Earth was clean and healthy for us. And, it’s our job to do that for our next seven generations. But also, it’s working to maintain our sovereignty.” Egan-Waukau says tribal sovereignty is an especially powerful theme for the Menominee, which only won back full tribal status in the early 1970’s after much activism and debate with state and federal elected officials. Still, this is not a presidential election year, and Wisconsin only has high-profile races for Governor, the U.S. House of Representatives, and the state legislature. Statewide voter turnout is expected to be down from 2024, but Egan-Waukau says there are some big problems, new and ongoing, likely to motivate tribal members to vote. “Like we had listening sessions and people came to talk to us about issues important to them, like data centers, the opioid problem we have on our reservations.” Egan-Waukau says she does encounter people who are cynical about voting and politicians, but she says she asks them do they really want to do nothing at election time. The Eklutna Tribe's Pow Wow and Potlatch happens only once every two years, but when it does, it draws hundreds of people to the village of Eklutna near Anchorage, as Rhonda McBride from our flagship station KNBA reports. The weekend of dancing, drumming, and feasting kicked off Saturday morning at the tribe's Pow Wow grounds. Aaron Leggett, the president of the Native Village of Eklutna, says what makes him most proud is that no one leaves hungry, because the tribe feeds everyone. “We'll have moose, various types of moose stew, and roast and fish, salmon. It's just sort of our way of really being open and good community partners.” Many also bring dishes to share. Leggett says the tribe had plenty to celebrate this year — including the groundbreaking for its long-awaited gathering hall, funded in part by the success of its new casino. The Chin’an Gaming Hall is in a temporary, modular near the Birchwood Airport. (Photo: Rhonda McBride) But more than anything, Leggett says, the gathering is a chance for Anchorage, Chugiak, and Eagle River to get to know their neighbors in the village of Eklutna. “There's certainly people that wouldn't necessarily, you know, when think of Eklutna, maybe they would think of the cemetery and the church but don't really have any sense of it. The Pow Wow, the Potlatch, really was our way of increasing awareness to the community and building that up.” The theme for this year's event was “Restoring our River — 97 Years Later”. It highlighted the tribe's efforts to restore the natural flow of the Eklutna River and its wild salmon runs. Treaty of Greenville depiction, 1795, artist unknown. On this day in 1795, the Treaty of Greenville was signed, ending the Northwest Indian War. The agreement between the U.S. and several Tribal Nations ceded much of present-day Ohio to the U.S., marking a major turning point in federal-Tribal relations and westward expansion.

Robert Hansen, better known as the "Butcher Baker," is one of the most notorious serial killers in Alaska and one of the most disturbing predators in American true crime history. During the 1970s and early 1980s, Hansen abducted women from Anchorage, flew them into the remote wilderness along the Knik River, and hunted them through the Alaskan backcountry before murdering them. His killing spree finally came to an end after the courageous escape of 17-year-old Cindy Paulson, whose determination helped unravel a case that had baffled investigators for years.In this episode of Crime Off the Grid, retired National Park Rangers Tara and Nancy examine the crimes of Robert Hansen, the FBI profile that pointed investigators toward an unlikely suspect, and the role Alaska's vast wilderness played in both concealing and ultimately exposing his horrific crimes. Join us as we explore one of the most chilling Alaska true crime cases ever investigated and the dark history hidden in one of America's most breathtaking landscapes.Listener discretion is advised.

Families and communities across western Alaska are getting long-awaited answers after federal investigators released their final report on last year’s deadly crash of Bering Air Flight 445. The report identifies multiple factors that contributed to the accident, including severe icing and safety shortcomings by the airline. Alaska Desk reporter Alena Naiden from our flagship station KNBA has more. All nine passengers and the pilot died when a Bering Air Cessna Grand Caravan crashed during its flight between Unalakleet and Nome in February of last year. The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) final report on the incident faults the pilot for “inadequate airspeed management”. It also says the plane faced severe icing conditions and was overweight, leaving less of a margin to avoid a stall. NTSB Chairwoman Jennifer Homendy was on scene in Nome last year and visited the state again this week, meeting with families of the victims of the crash. She says several preventable problems contributed to the accident. “In this case, we had a number of issues. We had first chronic underreporting of weight loads on the aircraft. There were problems with airspeed management. Between the airspeed, the increased load, the icing conditions, and some pilot inputs, he ended up in a stall.” Homendy says the pilot encountered severe icing conditions that were not initially forecast. She says investigators found that the pilot checked the weather, but did not receive any support from the air carrier making the decision on whether it was safe to fly. “We found that there wasn’t a process in place for Bering to have a weather risk assessment of when to fly – go/no go decision. It was all on the pilot.” According to the report, a few minutes before the crash, a controller in Anchorage told the pilot that both of Nome's runways were temporarily closed for de-icing and advised the pilot to slow down. The pilot initially decreased speed before increasing engine power again. Flight data showed that the plane pitched nose up at one point before losing speed and altitude until its low airspeed awareness system activated, which disengaged the autopilot. The controller sent a low-altitude alert but had lost contact with the pilot. The NTSB report says the plane's anti-icing system was working, and the pilot used it before the crash. A U.S. Coast Guard plane found the wreckage resting on an ice floe east of Nome the next morning, with no survivors. The NTSB also listed “inadequate safety management” by Bering Air as a cause of the crash. The report says the airline's planes routinely flew overweight. Bering Air declined to provide a statement when reached for comment. Homendy says the agency looked at 16 other Bering Air flights and found that loads often exceeded what was stated. She says that the agency did not look at whether other Alaska operators were also underreporting weights, but broadly speaking, it is a concern. She says the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) did not provide adequate oversight of the air carrier, particularly as it rapidly expanded in the region in recent years. She says the agency advised the FAA to require operators to adopt safety management systems like evaluating risks, having procedures to make sure the loads are accurate, and look at how they do pre-flight planning and go/no go decisions. “Those, to me, are not burdensome. Those are procedures that any operator, including a single operator can put in place themselves and can save lives and frankly save a company.” Bering Air faces three wrongful death lawsuits related to the crash. Clay Robbins is an attorney representing the family of Talaluk Katchatag (Iñupiaq) from Unalakleet. He says the suit seeks compensation for Katchatag's children, but the family also hopes to set a standard for bush airlines across the state. “They must be held accountable for satisfying their responsibility to exercise the highest standard of care to protect their customers from tragedies such as this, that was entirely, entirely avoidable.” The report is NTSB's final action on the crash. It calls for more training for pilots to better handle loss of control situations. It also includes a host of recommendations for airlines like Bering Air, called Part 135 operators, like using certified dispatchers and expanding flight monitoring.

Stephanie Rolfs, like many Bay Area residents, has spent a lot of time looking out over the bay, watching as ships come and go. The cargo ships in particular are so big and obvious as they sit out in the middle of the bay, south of the Oakland-San Francisco Bay Bridge and north of the San Mateo bridge. She wondered, how do those ships know where to park? Are there invisible parking "spots" they're pulling up to? How does it all work out there? We called Vessel Traffic Services to find out.

A woman whose body was found offshore near San Diego last week has been identified by authorities as a former Anchorage woman. More than two years after a Wasilla man was found shot and buried on his own property, the suspect in his killing has vanished while awaiting trial under electronic monitoring. The Anchorage Police Department confirmed Monday that officer Charles Bowser is no longer with the department following his DUI case involving an alleged off-duty drunk driving incident in a patrol vehicle earlier this year.

Alaska's main Native healthcare organization is set to receive a $400 million settlement from the federal government for unpaid expenses to provide medical services. The U.S. Department of Justice announced the settlement Tuesday. The Alaska Desk’s Alena Naiden from our flagship station KNBA reports. The Alaska Native Tribal Health Consortium (ANTHC) filed a lawsuit in 2021 claiming that the federal government did not fully compensate the organization for administrative costs over seven years of providing medical services. This settlement follows several U.S. Supreme Court decisions in favor of tribal health contractors like the consortium. Lloyd Miller is a tribal attorney who handled three cases involving costs that the government had refused to pay. “To be sure, a significant amount of money is owed to tribes, and the latest settlement you heard about is just one of many settlements that have been achieved throughout the United States over the last two years.” ANTHC provides health services in clinics throughout the state and at the Alaska Native Medical Center in Anchorage. The organization also runs rural infrastructure projects in villages, including improving water and sewer systems. The consortium entered an agreement with the federal government under the Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act. Under that agreement, ANTHC is responsible for providing healthcare that the federal government would otherwise provide, through agencies like the Indian Health Service (IHS). The consortium said in its court complaint the government failed to reimburse administrative costs for healthcare services between 2014 and 2022, with the exception of one year. The consortium's attorneys dismissed its case this month after a settlement was reached, according to court documents. Natasha Singh is president and CEO of the Alaska Native Tribal Health Consortium. She said in a prepared statement that the settlement helps make sure that “resources accurately reflect the true cost of operating a complex Tribal health system and advancing self-determination in healthcare.” Singh said the details of the settlement are still being finalized, but it helps the consortium to expand their services for Alaska Native people. Tribal attorney Miller says this and other cases follow a 2024 U.S. Supreme Court decision that the federal government owed money to the Carlos Apache and Northern Arapaho tribes in Arizona and Wyoming. “When the court held that those two tribes had been underpaid, the court was saying that every tribe in the United States that has a contract with [IHS] has been underpaid.” Miller says many tribes have filed or reactivated litigation with IHS in the last two years. KIC's new gift shop is where tourists can purchase care packages for community members. (Photo: Hunter Morrison / KRBD) There is a new way to give back to Ketchikan's unhoused population. The Ketchikan Indian Community (KIC) rolled out a new program this month where people can pay for and assemble care packages to those in need, as KRBD's Hunter Morrison reports. Emily Edenshaw is the tribe's administrator and CEO. To her knowledge, there is no other program like it in Alaska. She says that the initiative is aimed at tourists “We often invite tourists to our homelands, but there’s really a need for service tourism. You have the second largest tribe in Alaska that’s really tried to innovatively create an experience for our tourists to leave a community in a better place than they found it.” Care packages are $25 and include necessities like toothpaste, deodorant, socks, and sanitary products. People who purchase the care packages can also leave a handwritten note. Edenshaw says each dollar raised from the program will go to support the tribe's permanent supportive housing project, a 28-unit housing complex for seniors, set to open next month. The care packages can be purchased at KIC's newly opened gift shop at the corner of Dock and Main Streets downtown. That space was once home to the tribe's seasonal warming shelter, which closed in the spring. The tribe will open another temporary warming shelter in the fall, although they haven't determined a location yet. Edenshaw says the new care package program is a way to carry on the legacy of the former warming shelter space. She says a little bit of support can go a long way. “For those who might be wanting to do this, make it a family affair. You know, use this as an opportunity to instill the value of giving back, to your children. You know, bring your families by the gift shop and use it as an educational opportunity while also making an impact in people’s lives.” Edenshaw says visitors to the tribe's gift shop will see information about the new program as soon as they walk through the door. She hopes to inform the cruise lines of the program so that more tourists can participate in it. Get National Native News delivered to your inbox daily. Sign up for our daily newsletter today.

Strong winds in the Anchorage area took out trees and were responsible for multiple power outages on Thursday. Several trees were reported down in the Turnagain neighborhood. A Sand Lake resident who woke to find a huge tree on her front lawn was advertising free firewood for anyone willing to bring a chainsaw and cut it themselves. An Alaska elections official put his hands on a KTUU photojournalist’s camera and refused to explain why as a reporter pressed the division on why a U.S. Senate candidate’s party was stripped from the ballot. A 21-year-old woman accused of shooting a man outside an Anchorage elementary school during an early-morning meet-up arranged on Facebook Dating made her first court appearance Thursday on felony assault and robbery charges.

How do you combat something that you feel is bad for society? We dream up a lot of ways to do that, and sometimes it works better than it was ever intended. Officials in Anchorage, Alaska started levying a 5% tax on cannabis products. Officials announced recently a $462,000 budget shortfall due to residents buying less weed. Often times, these things are referred to as “sin taxes,” they are meant to discourage harmful behavior. I think Anchorage has discovered that it does work. What “sin challenges” are prevalent today and what could we do to help discourage them? It would be a great joy to be surprised at how effective we could be.

Sandheden om bortførelsen af 18-årig Samantha Koenig fra en afsondret kaffebod i sneklædte Anchorage var langt mere frygtelig, end nogen kunne have forestillet sig i deres mørkeste tanker. Før den anholdte 34-årige Israel Keyes endelig begyndte at fortælle FBI om sine modbydelige gerninger, krævede han kaffe fra Starbucks, chokoladebarer og cigarer. Det gik op for efterforskerne, som historien tog form, at de sad over for en djævelsk kølig mand, der havde planlagt alt ned i mindste uhyrlige detalje. Keyes beskrev roligt og præcist, hvordan han havde holdt Samantha fanget i et torturskur i sin baghave, hvor han havde pint og plaget hende fysisk og psykisk. Rædslerne var fortsat i ugerne efter hendes død, hvor han havde sminket hende, flettet hendes hår og syet hendes øjne åbne, så han kunne sende et livagtigt foto til hendes fortvivlede familie. Efterforskerne fandt også ud af, at Samantha Koenig ikke var hans første offer. Israel Keyes opdagede allerede som teenager, at han var drastisk anderledes end de fleste. Han skjulte det bare godt. Dagens sommerspecial er anden episode af tre om seriemorderen Israel Keyes. Research: Anne Niluka Iversen Assisterende klip: Anders Eske Musik: Bensound

This week on The Evolving Adventure, I'm joined by Amber Walker — adventurer, surfer, author, holistic wellness practitioner, and my first international guest! Amber joins from Punta de Mita, Mexico, where she can literally see two surf breaks from her recording spot. We talk about growing up in Anchorage, Alaska, competitive swimming, qualifying for Boston, inventing her own “30-tirement,” selling her stuff, buying a one-way ticket to Australia, running around New Zealand, surviving a crazy incident in Indonesia, and eventually finding her way into a completely different rhythm of life in Mexico.This episode is full of the kind of stories that make you want to pack a bag, trust your gut, and maybe rethink the whole “I'll live later” plan. Amber shares how solo travel helped her grow, why learning even a few words of the local language matters, what it means to enter a culture with respect, and how surfing became a form of floating meditation after years of pushing, training, and living in a state of hypervigilance. We also get into dance, play, intuition, chronic illness, faith, Peru, Barbados, wild birthday challenges, trail running through a blizzard, and that beautiful middle place where adventure becomes healing.You'll want to focus later in the episode when Amber and I talk about a number of our bucket list places. You can find Amber at @originwellnessclinic and @breakfreefromchronicillness, and you can find me at @cactusmoose and @theevolvingadventure. Listen to the full episode wherever you get your podcasts — this one is for anyone craving more adventure, more trust, more play, and a little less grind.

Eisenhower signed the Alaska Statehood Act into law. This monumental legislation paved the way for Alaska to officially be admitted as the 49th U.S. state on January 3, 1959, culminating decades of advocacy by territorial leaders - The push for statehood had long been championed by key political figures, notably Delegate E.L. "Bob" Bartlett, Governor Ernest Gruening, and future Governor Bill Egan. President Eisenhower signed the act without fanfare, simply stating, "Well, that's 49". The historic moment was celebrated locally with massive bonfires, including a famous one on the Park Strip in Anchorage, and the shortest banner headline in the Anchorage Daily Times: "WE'RE IN. - Sarah's background and story, a life dedicated to the outdoors, guiding bears in Kodiak, transitioning to shooting instruction, coaching the shot under pressure, shooting games, PRS (Precision Rifle Series), NRL (National Rifle League Hunter), Young Guns, the shooting match game, bear charges, red light/green light, wobble zone, representing Leupold Optics, Leupold's new  BX-HD Binoculars, Range Finders vs. Built in Range Fining, AWP trivia brought to you by Connoisseur Crude, 1915 1st running of the Mount Marathon 5k Race in Seward, AK, 1st Champion James Walters, Allie McLaughlin holds the all-time women's record for the Mount Marathon race, The world record for the longest rifle shot on a target is 4.4 miles (7,774 yards), Rapid Fire brought to you by Alaska Gun Co., closing statement and big shout out to Chad, Caleb Stillians, Sarah Leupold Optics & Accurate Advantage!

Today's show focuses on the Neocon/Trump strategy to escalate the war with Russia. Why the August 2025 Anchorage agreement between Trump and Putin was just a PR event. And why Trump's MOU with Iran last month was also just a tactical deception as well. The Empire's two forever wars now continue. What's behind the recent gains by Social Democrats in recent Dem party primaries and how both the Dem party leaders and Trump are gearing up to stop it.

Alaska is proving that politics doesn't have to be a zero-sum game.In a lively BigTentUSA conversation held on June 25, independent congressional candidate Bill Hill and Democratic gubernatorial candidate Jonathan Kreiss-Tomkins shared how Alaska's unique political culture is creating space for practical leadership, coalition-building, and solutions that put people ahead of party. They discussed the importance of protecting democracy, preserving Alaska's ranked-choice voting system, and working across political divides to rebuild trust in government.The conversation also highlighted the critical role of Alaska's fisheries, with both candidates calling for stronger protections against bycatch, greater local representation in fisheries management, and expanded opportunities for young Alaskans to remain in the industry. Throughout the discussion, both speakers emphasized that lasting progress comes from listening, collaboration, and staying focused on the needs of local communities rather than partisan agendas.Their message was clear: when leaders choose cooperation over division, democracy—and the people it serves—are stronger for it.Wanna help get out the vote?

He grew up subsistence fishing and hunting, trapping, and raising and racing sled dog teams with his family. Bill is first and foremost a commercial fisherman, joining his dad on the family fishing boat when he was 12 and fishing every fishing season in Bristol Bay since. Bill also worked in rural construction, from building houses, working on remote health clinics and canneries, environmental remediation, and on a crew that installed the sewer system in the Bristol Bay Borough. A son of two teachers, Bill spent nearly 25 years working as a teacher, a principal, and a superintendent, and was named Alaska Superintendent of the Year in 2023. He's a proud union guy, having been part of both the Laborers union and the NEA. Bill is a husband, dad of four, and Chada (grandpa) to 7. Bill and his family have lived in Anchorage, Fairbanks, and Juneau. Now he and his wife Diane are back in Naknek, population 470.Jonathan Kreiss-Tomkins — known as JKT — is running for governor of Alaska in an open-seat election. Born and raised in the island community of Sitka in Southeast Alaska, JKT became interested in politics at a young age. At 13, he attracted national attention, leading Howard Dean's presidential campaign's Alaska efforts. During his senior year of college, he received recruitment calls to run against the powerful eight-year Republican incumbent for his home district. He mounted a scrappy underdog campaign in 2012, defeating him by 32 votes. At 23 years old, JKT was the third-youngest legislator elected in Alaska history, and served in the Alaska House of Representatives for 10 years. Four years in, in 2016, he worked across the aisle to help sweep into power a “bipartisan coalition” majority caucus of all House Democrats, as well as independents and moderate Republicans. That bipartisan coalition remains in power today. JKT is running for governor to bring a new generation of leadership to the governor's office — supporting schools, lowering the cost of energy, building new homes, and balancing the budget — so that the next generation will also call Alaska home.

Our Film Club roundtables are back with a discussion on the new horror sensation Backrooms. It tells the story of Clark, a disgruntled furniture store owner who discovers a portal into another dimension in the basement of his store. When Clark goes missing, his therapist, Mary, goes looking for him, and ventures into the liminal space we know as Backrooms. The Backrooms phenomenon goes all the way back to 2019 starting with a post on 4Chan, where an anonymous person posted an unsettling image of an empty, seemingly ongoing office area with yellow carpet and walls.  It created a boom in the horror subgenre called “Liminal Spaces” - places that are normally occupied by lots of people but feel uncanny and eerie when empty. In January 2022, a 14 year old named Kane Parsons started making found footage-style short films set in these liminal space.  At 19 years old Parsons directed the feature-length version of Backrooms and has become the youngest director to open a film at number one at the North American box office. Backrooms also became the highest grossing film for A24, breaking the record in just six days. - Roundtable led by Sadona Holm. Hosted by Ormund Alaois; Audio production and editing by Kyle Smith. Music by Kendrick Whiteman and Devin Shreckengost. Film Club was made possible with funding from the Atwood Foundation.

Dr. Deb Muth 0:05What if your immune system isn’t broken, it’s just confused? What if chronic Lyme, the autoimmune condition, the food sensitivities, the exhaustion that never lifts what if those aren’t separate problems but one problem? A misfiring immune system that nobody taught how to stand down. Today’s guest has spent over 15 years doing exactly that, retraining the immune system from the inside out with a therapy so precise, so safe, and so effective that it has changed the lives of thousands of people who’d been written off by conventional medicine. Stay with me. This one changes everything.Welcome back to Let’s Talk Wellness Now, the show where we pull back the curtain on chronic illness, challenge outdated medical thinking, and hand you the real tools to heal from the inside out. I’m Dr. Deb, integrative and functional medicine practitioner, medical detective, and your straight-talking guide through the world of root cause medicine. Today, we’re going to dive deep into the immune system, specifically something called low-dose immunotherapy or LDI, and also into some hormones, chronic fatigue, and what it actually looks like to treat the cause instead of suppressing the symptoms. If you or someone you love has been told there’s nothing more we can do, this episode was made for you. Grab your cup of coffee, Settle in and let’s get to work. Now, before we bring in today’s guest, a quick word from our sponsor, and then we are diving straight in. I promise. Did you know sweating can literally heal your cells? Infrared saunas don’t just relax you, they detox your body, balance hormones, and boost mitochondrial energy. I’m obsessed with my HealthTech Sauna, and right now you can save $500 with my code at healthtechhealth.com/dr-muth-req-25.I want to start you with a story because this is one I’ve heard hundreds of times in my own practice, and I’m guessing you’ve either lived it or know someone who has. She’s 42. She’s been sick for years. Fatigue that doesn’t lift with sleep, joint pain that migrates, brain fog so thick she can’t finish a sentence, and a gut that seems to react to everything she eats. She’s been to her GP, rheumatologist, gastroenterologist, maybe even an immunologist, and every single lab comes back within quote unquote normal limits. She’s handed a prescription for something to manage the symptoms and sent home. Maybe she’s been told it’s anxiety. Maybe she’s been told it’s aging, or maybe and this one always breaks my heart she’s told it’s all in her head. That woman is not imagining it. She is not anxious and she’s not aging poorly. Her immune system has lost its ability to tolerate things it’s supposed to tolerate, and no one has offered her the therapy that could actually fix that. And what we’re talking about today with my guest has been practicing integrative medicine for over 15 years. Ty Vincent holds a medical degree from the University of Washington. He completed his family medicine residency in Anchorage, Alaska, and since has built one of the most impressive clinical repertoires I’ve seen anywhere in this field: acupuncture, Chinese medicine, environmental medicine, bioidentical hormones, hyperbaric medicine, chelation, regenerative peptide therapy, psychedelic-assisted therapy, and nutritional medicine.He lives and practices on the Big Island of Hawaii. He is married has 9 children. Oh my gosh, 9! And he has personally navigated type 1 diabetes, which, as you’ll hear, is not separate from his mission. It actually is his mission. And most importantly, he is a world authority on low-dose immunotherapy, a therapy he pioneered in 2008 and since has trained over 200 providers globally and changed the course of chronic illness care as we know it. I have had the pleasure of learning from Dr. Ty Vincent. I have had pleasure of taking his low-dose immunotherapy course when he first started back in like 2008 or 2009. I remember doing it back then and learning more about it in 2011. And this is going to be a great conversation for us. So one quick ask that I have for you guys, if this sounds like something that you want to learn more about and you’ve listened to some of our shows, please share like, subscribe. It means a lot. It helps us grow our channel. It helps us continue to provide for you different topics, different speakers, and really give you what it is that you’re looking for.So without further ado, I’d like to introduce you to Dr. Ty Vincent. All right, so Dr. Ty Vincent, this is gonna be a great conversation. We were just chatting before we went live of my training with you guys way back in like 2015, and I’m excited to hear all the new things that you’ve got going on. But introduce yourself to the audience. Tell us a little bit about you, how you got involved in this, uh, where you’re at, all that good stuff. Tyvincent 5:29Okay. I, uh, it’s a long story, but some of the highlights, I guess I was born in Alaska in the early ’70s and grew up there kind of wandering around in the woods with my dogs with no one around all day long. It was amazing. You don’t get kids don’t get that experience anymore. So you kind of learn to be an independent thinker, I think, you know, because latchkey kid, parents weren’t home till 6 and you’re on your own from early. Dr. Deb Muth 5:49That was a great time, wasn’t it? Yeah. Tyvincent 5:51I mean, I have, I have 9 children now and none of them grew up like me. And despite my effort, I mean, I’d have to basically like helicopter them out in the woods and drop them off for a few hours for them to understand what independent kids today are so dependent and parents are so helicopter that, uh, it’s changed. Anyway, I, I grew up just really liking science and really loving science, a huge nerd. And, um, and, uh, when I went into college, when I wanted to be a marine biologist and I thought that that was my passion of the ocean wildlife and all that, and then halfway through college, personal Couple things made me change my mind. It was a girl, you know, the usual. And I decided to go to school in Anchorage instead of going I was, I was transferring to Hawaii and I was going to study marine biology. And then, uh, my girlfriend moved back to Alaska where we were from. And I decided to do that instead. And then they didn’t have a marine science program.So I decided I’ll just get a biology degree and go to medical school. I’m a smart guy. I can do that, but I had no awareness of medicine. I really didn’t have any, you know, the passion some people have to be a healer and to go help people wasn’t part of the calculus at all for me. I was kind of an Asperger’s kid, so that really wasn’t the way I thought, honestly. And then I went into medicine and I was really interested in the science, the biology, the biochemistry, all the stuff, the physiology. And before I started medical school, I was reading some Andrew Weil’s books and I was, I decided to get a book on nutritional biochemistry because I naively thought that’s what they were going to teach me, right? This is how you make people healthy. You figure out how it works and you give them the things that make their body work right. Yeah. And we all know that that’s. Not been true for over 100 years now since the Flexner Report. And, you know, the rich people steered the government towards pharmaceuticals. Dr. Deb Muth 7:26Yeah. Tyvincent 7:26But that was my interest. And when I went through the first 2 years of medical school, I just really devoured all of the basic science stuff. And that was what I thought was the most important. And I honestly mastered all that. I scored in the top 1% in the country on all the exams and everything. And it was the top, in the top of my class at the University of Washington. And then you start doing clinical medical training and you discover that they don’t use any of that knowledge anymore, really, unless it pertains directly to pharmaceuticals, and that pharmaceutical research is extremely narrow and reductionist, and they only want to try to prove one little effect, and it doesn’t translate to real health. So as I got into clinical work and started residency, you know, by the third year of residency, I was like, they didn’t really teach me how to help people with chronic illness. You know, I was, I went to family medicine residency, so I was delivering babies.I was assisting with surgeries. I was in the ER. I was doing colonoscopies. I actually did colonoscopies in practice after residency, which family Doctors almost never get to do, but I’m a small town in Alaska. So I managed my own ICU patients and did everything, literally circumcisions in the office. And you’re dealing with like hospice and end of life care, just both ends, right? Pregnancy to death. And so I’d realized that if I really wanted to do the job well, which was my goal, I needed to learn other things. And in my, in my third year of residency, I actually did the extra, like, like additional training in medical acupuncture that was put on by the Helms Medical Institute then with Joseph Helms.And that was great. And I had to learn Chinese medical theory and I learned, I did the extra module on Chinese herbal medicine. And it was wonderful because I had to open my mind to a completely different way to evaluate people and illness. And I thought, okay, well then there’s got to be more. And as I went, I just became this voracious consumer of broad medical knowledge, not conventional medicine. You notice how a lot of the conventional people call it traditional medicine? Dr. Deb Muth 9:07Yes. Tyvincent 9:07Which annoys the crap out of me because there’s nothing traditional about something that’s been around for 100 years. I mean, you need time, you need like an epoch to say something’s traditional. But they’re like, no, I’m like, and then we were considered alternative medicine minded and everything like, oh, well, Well, it’s an alternative to real medicine. The vernacular in our culture really dictates thinking, unfortunately. I went on to learn functional medicine. So like 2005, I did the acupuncture training. 2006, I found the IFM and I read their entire textbook in a few months. And I went to the trainings. I was like, okay, now I know what you guys have to teach me. And then I found a bioidentical hormone therapy training course that was like Jonathan Wright and Terry Hertog. Dr. Deb Muth 9:46Terry Hertog, yes. My favorite guys. Tyvincent 9:49They were great. Dr. Deb Muth 9:50Pioneers, right? Tyvincent 9:51Yeah, exactly. And, you know, I learned what their opinions were and all that. And then you don’t really learn how to use a tool or you don’t get really get facile with something until you are using it and you’re applying it to your patients. And I went beyond that. I learned all kinds of IV nutrition. I learned chelation therapy. I joined the Environmental Medicine Academy and I learned how to do various forms of immunotherapy, eventually leading to learning LDA, low dose allergy therapy, through them in 2008. And for those of you listeners who don’t know about low-dose allergy therapy, when you learn about it, basically it’s like homeopathic dilutions of antigens.But instead of single antigens, like if you go to that regular allergist, they’ll just prick test you, blood test you, whatever, and say, oh, you react to mold, you react to chicken, you react to your husband’s whatever. They don’t test for that. I sometimes do. And they’re very narrow-minded about it. And it’s like you just give the antigens that the person tested for and you’re always missing something. With LDA, you get these huge broad mixtures of antigens, like for foods, it’s just hundreds of foods compiled into one for environmental allergens. And the reason you can get away with it is that the dilution factor is so far out. There’s no physical interaction with the body and you can’t, there’s no risk of inducing allergy, right? Whereas conventional shots might be 1,000 to 1, 100 to 1 dilution. We’re out at like a billion to 1 or further in most of these. And it sounded like nonsense to me, right? Despite all of my training I’d already had and all these things and being open-minded, it still sounded ridiculous. Pointless, right?But at least I was willing to give it a try because I had patients in my clinic, my family medicine clinic in Alaska, that had horrific allergies. Just like kids with eczema from head to toe. They look like they’ve been set on fire. Half their hair wouldn’t grow out of their head. They’re just miserable. They won’t grow. They’re on steroids. And I just thought, if there’s if this has any chance of working for these kids, I’m going to give it a try. Plus, two of my kids at the time had eczema, like persistent eczema that was really annoying. And I kids with eczema is a near and dear thing to me now. I like, I get emotional treating these kids, but, but that’s because it’s miserable for the families. Right. So I took it hard and I started treating my kids and, and, uh, kids in my clinic with LDA and it worked like magic because magic is just science we haven’t figured out yet. Right. We just, you know, some, but it was undeniable that it was working incredibly well. And then I was like, well, what is going on here? How does this work? And you learn the whole history of it. It goes back to the 1950s. I’m like, but, but it’s still so limited. There’s so much more as you start to treat patients with every tool in your toolbox, you run into these walls occasionally where you’re like, okay, everything I’m doing now isn’t working. And this patient has some kind of chronic inflammation, which is a very general term.People go, I have inflammation. Yeah, yeah. What we all do every day, all the time. But they would have these chronic inflammatory disorders that really seem to be immune driven. And then I thought, well, in terms of understanding low-dose allergy therapy, if I can identify what the target antigen really is that’s underlying this patient’s condition, and I can restore tolerance to that, which is basically how LDA works, then you could resolve it. And so I set about experimenting with all kinds of autoimmune disorders. I mean, at the time, LDA and the predecessor therapy called EPD, they had a few bacterial antigens, and we knew that there were connections between like rheumatoid arthritis and the bacterium Proteus. So that was in one. Klebsiella was the target antigen for ankylosing spondylitis. I’m thinking, well then, what about all these other autoimmune disorders? So I started just treating people creatively and trying all kinds of different things. Luckily, I had a contact in Orange County who had a warehouse, like a biomedical sample warehouse, and he was willing to give me antigen mixtures almost anything you could imagine in the biomedical world.The first thing I had him put together was Candida. I found those of us in the medicine space realize that some people have this huge problem with Candida. The conventional medical world thinks, well, yeah, everybody’s got Candida. That’s not a thing unless it’s an infection, blah, blah, blah. But you see these patients that are super ill, persistently ill, and you give them antifungals because you think, okay, well, you have these red rashes and itching and constipation and fatigue and muscle pain, blah, blah, whatever. It sounds like a yeast problem. Some of them, interestingly, if you do stool analysis, they show no yeast on their stool, which is a clue to me with a different thinking process that the reason the yeast isn’t growing in their stool is their immune system must be attacking it and killing it off in the gut, right? Because who doesn’t carry Candida? So the, the tests that run those are the stool company the test the companies that run the stool test, they don’t flag that result as abnormal because, yay, good, you have no yeast. But it’s horribly abnormal, right? Like if you saw somebody with no, no ears, you’re like, that’s not right. And so I thought, well, maybe they’re immunologically hypersensitive Candida. And so I, I was able to purchase a mixture of Candida species. And it occurred to me that I should include Saccharomyces cerevisiae in there because baker’s yeast and brewer’s yeast, people become sensitive to that too.So I made this and some of the patients that I was seeing where I would put them on Diflucan and Nystatin and all their symptoms would just evaporate, right? But you try to stop the medications after a month or whatever, and within 48 to 72 hours, their symptoms are right back. And that was one of the things, another clue to me, like, well, then that’s not an infection. I mean, they’re not taking antibiotics. They’re not eating a ton of sugar. Why would this regrow? And one of my criticisms of our integrative medicine world is we have just as many fairy tales and dogmatic beliefs as the conventional medical world. They’re just more colorful. Dr. Deb Muth 14:59That is true. That is very true. Yeah. Tyvincent 15:01And people were saying, oh, well, it’s because Candida lurks and hides in these nooks and crannies and corners in your body. And I’m like, I’ve done colonoscopies for years. I don’t know what you’re talking about. Like, it’s sparkling clean in there after some Go Lightly or whatever you torture your patient with the day before a colonoscopy. I was like, well, that doesn’t make sense. And they’re like, well, it’s because Candida uses mercury as a weapon to fight off your immune system. I’m like, you’re anthropomorphizing this organism as if it had agency to make tools, right? It doesn’t make sense. So then I came up with this idea to desensitize people to Candida. And it was incredibly effective.These patients, when you find the right dilution, you know, and for those who don’t know, it’s just a couple of drops of water put under your tongue, taken out of a syringe from multiple different dilution steps of the mixture, whether they’re using, right? So these people would respond. Most things I’ve developed, people respond. Somewhere near a trillion to one mathematically. And it was incredible. And I was like, okay, this is something that I’m sure relates to other chronic illness problems. And I started experimenting with I had a couple of patients with inflammatory bowel disease, ulcerative colitis, both of them early on. That was 2009. And I was like, well, they didn’t respond to the yeast mixture. They didn’t respond to the food mixture. And I was like, well, they’re reacting to something.And presumably that something is living in their gut. Right? I now know people react to different bacteria. There’s a ton of different bacteria and other organisms in your stool. So I came up with the crazy idea after seeing Dr. Bill Ray at an environmental medicine meeting talk about what he called autologous vaccines. Dr. Deb Muth 16:29Right? Tyvincent 16:30And I want to be clear, the way a vaccine works is probably the total opposite of how LDA works. It’s not the same thing. You’re restoring tolerance with LDA, LDI, and you’re promoting a robust immune reaction to a target antigen with a vaccine. At least that’s the theory. And now I’m not. It’s true. But Dr. Ray was talking about that and I thought, well, that’s a cool idea. And I went up and I asked him like, how do you do this?How do you make these things? And he kind of gave me like a very brief, you know, brush off. He didn’t know me very well. He’s like, oh, you get these Millipore filters, these little things you put on a syringe and you can dilute something and pass it through into a vial and it’ll be a sterile solution and you can dilute it. I was like, oh, great. So I collected one of my ulcerative colitis patients’ stool who was having at the time like 12 bloody bowel movements per day, every day. He’d seen all the conventional gastroenterologists. He tried the different drugs. They weren’t working. He went to some really special integrative greater clinic in California that primarily dealt with gastrointestinal disorders, and he did everything they wanted him to do, and it also didn’t help.I did discover that he was sensitive to gluten, and when he went off gluten, his, his gut still didn’t improve. So I made this autologous stool, um, LDA I called it then, which now I change it to LDI because LDA is a proprietary term and it’s also very narrow in scope. And I gave him doses and looked like the second dilution maybe that I went through hit. Literally his, his diarrhea and bleeding stopped overnight. And by 3 days he was having completely normal stools and no pain, nothing. And that taught me a couple of things. One, this theory works, right? And two, you know, we talk about the concept of leaky gut in the alternative medicine world, like integrative medicine world, sorry, a lot.And I’m like, yeah, but that’s not a diagnosis. That’s a symptom. You know, you still figure out what’s causing inflammation. And people are like, I just have leaky gut. It’s chronic. And you know, what do you do? And what I found was if you just put the fire out, the house rebuilds itself. Health very quickly. You know, we know that the lining of the gut turns over extremely fast. That’s why it is one of the first things to go when you do chemotherapy. And these people were basically healed to normal within less than a week. Same thing with kids with eczema that had these horrible oozing, weeping skin patches. Dr. Deb Muth 18:25I would. Tyvincent 18:25Or psoriasis even. When I developed some things that would treat psoriasis later on, you, you give this person with just, you know, deforming sort of rashes the right antigen, within 3 to 5 days they have normal looking skin except for maybe residual depigmentation or scarring if but it just blew me away. Dr. Deb Muth 18:42That’s crazy. 3 Days. Tyvincent 18:44The key to solving these problems was to restore immunological tolerance for the thing that it had lost tolerance for. Dr. Deb Muth 18:50Right. Tyvincent 18:50And it just really made me think about everything we were taught about chronic illness and everything we’re taught about the immune system in a very different way. And so since 2009, I’ve developed I’ve continued to develop new mixtures for new things because I run into patients. I can treat so many more things now highly successfully than I could before, but there’s still always the failures. People would ask me over the years, you know, why did you pick up all these skill sets?Like I learned acupuncture and Chinese medicine. I learned bio I became a Reiki master even, because I’m like, well, energy is a thing too. And so I get into the energy medicine world and that also works. And especially if you add it to acupuncture, it’s a great combination. All this stuff. And I would still fail. And I, it occurred to me when people ask me the question, like, I’m driven by failure. I really don’t like it. And I said, uh, and I thought that was how everybody believed, you know what everybody thought, right? But then you when you study our conventional medical colleagues and a lot of our people in the integrative medicine world too, that are doing the same things, the same protocols.And I hate the word protocol because it’s a poor substitute for thinking, right? It’s so that you don’t have to think here, follow this list, but everybody’s so different. So I never developed a protocol for anything to this day. I don’t, that’s not what I do. I was like, despite all of this, their patients aren’t getting better either. And it’s like, well then, you know, just philosophically, which I was a big philosophy student in college too. I thought if, if what you’re doing doesn’t work, do something different, you know, make new mistakes, figure things out. And I just got really creative. And by now I have, my gosh, I have 100 different kinds of antigen mixtures. And to be very honest, half of them have never worked for anything because that’s how it works, right? You got to. Dr. Deb Muth 20:17You’re trying it. Geez. Yeah. Tyvincent 20:19You’ve got to be willing to be wrong if you ever want to be right. One of the things I’ve noticed about humans in general is they’re very unwilling to see when they’re wrong because it’s emotionally painful to let go of something that has maybe been a part of your self-identity or especially like when you get experts in a field and they’re famous for some theory or treatment or whatever they developed, even if evidence shows up later, which it inevitably does, to show that what they’re doing isn’t complete, maybe not wrong, but not complete, there’s huge resistance, right, to the change. Dr. Deb Muth 20:49No one will admit that there’s something that didn’t work initially when they thought it did. Tyvincent 20:54Right. And nobody wants to admit I’ve been doing something wrong or ineffective or less than it could be for 20 years. You know, that’s unsettling. But to me, I’m like, well, isn’t it worse to keep doing it wrong? Right? Dr. Deb Muth 21:06That’s the whole idea. Like, right? We’re supposed to be bettering ourselves. Medicine’s supposed to be adapting and changing, and we don’t. Like, there’s a lot of things that we still do the same way we did in the 1950s and ’60s. Cancer treatment is one of them, right? We don’t really do anything different than we did back then. And when you look at precision medicine, we have all these new tools, but people stay stuck in their way of doing things just because maybe it’s easier, they’re comfortable or whatever. It doesn’t always make it the best interest for the client. Tyvincent 21:36No. And that is the goal we all need to keep in mind. Dr. Deb Muth 21:38Yeah. Tyvincent 21:39What I thought was like the job is to fix the problem the person has. And if the tools you currently have don’t do that, you need to learn something else. Dr. Deb Muth 21:48Yeah. Tyvincent 21:48And eventually I got a little saturated with learning new things. Dr. Deb Muth 21:51I’ve been there. Tyvincent 21:54Turns out there’s a limit. You know, we use the term drinking from the fire hose for everybody who like comes, like conventionally trained doctors who first get into the integrative medicine world. You’re just like, what are you talking about? It’s all so foreign and new. And then you have to use it and realize, okay, there’s, there’s a lot of truth here. But I got to a point where it’s like, I just don’t have the time in my day to use every tool. Like I bought an Indigo machine. I don’t know if you’ve heard of it. So the old EAV technology from Germany long ago, electrodiagnostic things and Then they developed computer programs and software that could analyze 11,000 different frequencies. It’s all energy frequency based. And I bought one of these for like $25,000. I still have it in the case collecting dust because I just didn’t have time to learn how to use the tool. And I was like, all right, I got to just get really, really good at some things and then let my colleagues who are good at other things help people with the things I can’t treat and I’ll tell them where to go. You know, it’s a collective, it’s a team effort. Dr. Deb Muth 22:47Right. It’s got to be a team effort. I’m curious what you’re finding these days with the newfound for mass cell, right? MCAS, everybody’s problem child, and nobody has a good answer. And it’s, it’s an immune reaction, right? It’s not just that I’m allergic to everything situation. Back in the day, 20 years ago, you and I would have called these the chemically sensitive people, and now we at least understand what’s going on. It’s an immune reaction. But I’m curious what you’re finding with LDI and that population of people. Tyvincent 23:19It’s a really good question. I know, I know you’ve had other interviews where people have discussed it philosophically to start the conversation. I really have found over the years that a diagnosis is the least helpful thing you can give your patient. Dr. Deb Muth 23:31Agreed. Tyvincent 23:31But we love labels. We love names. And we, and the problem is when you give something a name that does not reflect what’s actually going on, it just leads everybody’s brain in the wrong direction. And so there’s nothing wrong with these people’s mast cells. And that’s why I’m like, I despise the term mast cell activation disorder, but It is okay that they may be the end of the line releasing histamine and whatever, but a lot of these people have tons of inflammatory symptoms that have nothing to do with histamine, right? There are lots of mechanisms in the immune system that can give you cell-mediated inflammation or humoral, like antibody-mediated inflammation, different things. And mast cells are kind of an IgE thing, but it’s way more complicated than that.And when you work with these people, because a lot of them have found me because they have a very difficult time finding answers and solutions. I’ve been at most of us in this field have been at the bottom of a funnel where the options decrease because you try more and more therapies and they don’t work and the desperation increases kind of inversely proportionally. And then they’re trying weirder and weirder things that like people think are bizarre, you know, like you can eventually sting yourself with 20 bees a day, do apitherapy or something. Dr. Deb Muth 24:36I remember that therapy. And you know, as a practitioner too, it becomes more and more frustrating because it’s like, I’m trying all these things and nothing is working. What am I missing? And you keep trying different things until they just give up on you or you give up on them or whatever ends up happening, you know. Tyvincent 24:52Right. But again, like philosophically, every failure should lead you a step closer to success. Dr. Deb Muth 24:58Yeah. Tyvincent 24:58If you can look at it and you can learn from it what is possible from it and go, okay, I got to do this different or change this, or perhaps my entire theory about this problem is just dead wrong. Yeah. So if what I think is happening isn’t what’s happening, what else could be happening? And then you, you know, you come up with a theory and then you have to devise a way to test test it. And so like a lot of people probably tossed around theories about things being immune related or whatever over the years because it becomes a little obvious at a certain point, but they didn’t have a tool to test the theory.So that was the, the unique position I found myself in from 2009 onward was I’ve got a way to test this if I can figure out what antigen to try. And so I got a lot of mast cell people with that diagnosis. And, you know, my assessment of the problem is that when they come into my office, because like you and like most of people that are kind made it a little further in the integrative medicine world. The patients that find you have already seen 20 of your colleagues at the Mayo Clinic and the Cleveland Clinic and Germany, like Mexico, whatever. They’ve had exosomes infused up their nose or whatever. Like, all right, so what has not been explored yet? And you got to realize, okay, these, these people are there’s something going on. It’s very inflammatory. It’s probably immune related, but where is it coming from? Again, you mentioned root cause. You’ve got to trace the steps backward and try to figure out where is the point of intervention that will actually work and that’s feasible. And so what I found in these people, most of them have a pretty common early story of having had one or a few immune reactions that first began the process. And they might’ve been fairly benign and not that big of a deal.And then they go through some kind of immunological stress, whether it’s, well, some kind of stress, whether it’s a direct immune stress, like a vaccination or an infection or something like that. Like with COVID I’ve had an equal number of people who developed chronic immunological disorders after having the virus infection or having the vaccine. And the things that develop are virtually identical. So people are like, I should be gotten the vaccine. I’m like, it really doesn’t make any difference. Dr. Deb Muth 26:53Right. And I’ve seen the same thing with the HPV vaccine too. Like a lot of young people, they get that and all of a sudden their whole system is torn off after that. It’s very common. Tyvincent 27:03Except in that example, just getting HPV doesn’t do it. It’s the vaccine that does it. Dr. Deb Muth 27:07Vaccine that does it. Yes, exactly. Tyvincent 27:10Because everybody’s got HPV, you know, some other, and that is not in and of itself enough of an inflammatory trigger to lead to these chronic illness, right? You can lead to cancer, sure. Which is focal and it’s not a hypersensitivity problem. It’s a failure of immune defense problem. It’s a little different. So I would get these people and I’m like, okay, what happened first? What’s the beginning of the story? Because if you talk to them about how they’re feeling today, and a lot of your listeners, this will resonate with them. If I ask you how you’re doing today, the real cause of your problem is buried under a snowstorm of constant inflammation and your life experience is utter hell. And you have no clue what’s really triggering anything anymore. It’s like at a certain point, the immune system has developed PTSD, right? It’s just, it’s hypervigilant. Anything you give these people to take, even like vitamin C or whatever, then they go, ah, it made me worse.Ah, it made me worse. Because their immune system is now seeing anything foreign as an invader, as an enemy. So if you ask people just about how they’re doing today, you get absolutely nowhere. With these people. The one theory I had though was, well, maybe they’re reacting to histamine itself. Okay. I think is a beautiful theory. Makes total sense. Didn’t work at all. Spoiler alert. It’s not that it doesn’t work. It’s easy to get a sample of histamine, you know, and I also, I also got histidine, the amino acid from which it’s derived. I’ll say I’ll just put them together. So at least I want to say 12 years ago, I made like a histamine histidine LDI and everyone who had kind of the mast cell picture portfolio of illnesses, I would try it on. It has to this day, it’s never worked for anybody that I’ve tried it on. And I haven’t had another LDI practitioner tell me that it did. But again, that failure made me think about it in a different way. And so the success I’ve had with that population is not monolithic. It’s not one part. From an LDI perspective, figuring out what it is that they began to react to first, like, did you still have, do you have food problems originally?Oh yeah, I was kind of sensitive to gluten, but I just ate it anyway because I would just get some diarrhea and some, okay, it it was, it was livable, right? But they just keep exposing themselves to this trigger. And eventually something snaps in their immune system. Like they live in a moldy dorm room for 6 months and that all of that immune activation will kick off whole new immune response problems. And the world of mold is another area where I think people don’t, do not really understand what’s going on. And a lot of our treatment approaches don’t work for a large portion of these people. And it has to be kind of thought of in a broader sense. They could go through a divorce. They could have a car accident. They could have a surgery. A woman could have a baby, which is one of the biggest immunological triggers, unfortunately, is having a baby or early pregnancy miscarriage even is enough to do. Emotionally stressful. It’s physically stressful. It’s immunologically stressful.And then it swings your estrogen back up and you get this hypersensitive profile. But so all of these, what I call catalytic events were common in these people. And it’s not just one, it’s any one of them. And what I found was if I could identify what their initial triggers were categorically, right? Environmental things, chemical things, food. And if I could desensitize them to those, everything would settle down. And, and that was, that’s been the key to working with those people. But they want to tell you how horrible their life is today. Dr. Deb Muth 30:17Yeah. Tyvincent 30:17And you got to listen to that because you need the connection. You need to understand what they’re dealing with. You need to understand what their baseline is so that you can compare going forward. But the answers, the solutions aren’t in that story. And the solutions are in the history. And like, what’s the first thing you remember? And all this, like, okay, well, let’s go with foods. Let’s go with chemicals, whatever. And if somebody has distinctly worst triggers, right? Because right now they react kind of to everything. Any foods that you absolutely don’t eat because they give you the absolute worst reaction pattern, right? Oh yeah, I can’t eat these things. They’re the worst. Okay, well, maybe we’ll start with those and you can use those foods as your test exposures to determine if the dose works each time. So that’s one of the things I’ve developed stylistically over the years is the use of a test exposure if we’re using an allergen extract so that you can confirm or deny whether the therapy worked, right? Because people will tell you, oh, I feel better.Turns out that’s not worth much. You really need like, I mean, And belief is a huge part of that. Placebo effect is a huge part of that. You want to find something relatively objective, you know, so will you still vomit when you have chicken? You know, cause that’s like, that’s pretty obvious. And then go with that, you know, or do you still get a rash when you put on a bandaid? I love it when people get rashes from contact cause they can show me pictures and it’s not subjective, turns out. But even those reactions can go away 100% with placebo doses. It’s fascinating how people respond to placebos. So anyway, I try to find like the root beginning allergens. And then a lot of these people also accumulate other target antigens as they go through their process of being ill. Their immune system is so upset and it’s, it’s also just blurry vision, right? It attacks anything. Angry dog on a chain. If you get close enough, it’ll bite you. It doesn’t care who you are. And that’s how their immune systems get.So finding the antigens that are root cause is key. But a lot of these people have developed over time total adrenal burnout. Out, right? Because they’re in state of chronic inflammation, everything. So I also found that I had to lean on my skill in bioidentical hormone therapy, which over all the years I’ve been in integrative medicine, the two major skill areas that gave me the best results in general were hormonal management and immunological modulation. I got so many of the prior failures I was able to solve with those two things. And so if I would support these people’s adrenal, like hormones, you know, DHEA, cortisol, to optimal levels, a lot of them, their symptoms would cut by half, number one. And you would have a little more clarity as to what their actual triggers were.So in a lot of these cases, I learned to start with that before I even decided what antigens to pick. You can kind of get the snowstorm to calm down. You can start to find the snowmen in the blizzard that you couldn’t see before with all the chaos. I was like, okay, now that you’re feeling better most of the time, you can tell that these chemicals bother you, that mold exposure bothers you, that whatever, and then you can target things But the other third kind of leg of the tripod that I found are the keys to success with our most complex patients is to address like the hormonal issue, the immunological issue, but the subconscious fear response, the subconscious stress response in them. Dr. Deb Muth 33:14Trauma. Tyvincent 33:15And I saw that you’ve also people, yeah, trauma and people have medical trauma, not just trauma from their illness itself, but trauma from seeing 12 doctors that treated them like they were a head case and ignored what’s going on. Dr. Deb Muth 33:25Of the medical community, right? Tyvincent 33:27Oh God, you know, like people— yeah, the more doctors you see, the more your trust in doctors goes down. Dr. Deb Muth 33:34Yes, exactly. Tyvincent 33:35They see one of us and some of them just automatically are like, whatever, here’s another failure coming my way, kind of thing, you know, realistic. Partly because it becomes too risky to have hope, right? Like after a while you’ve had hope, hope, and it’s been dashed, and you just can only handle that so many times. It’s like you fall in love and then they dump W. And after a while you’re like, I’m celibate. I don’t care anymore. Um, so you get these people and what we have found, my wife and I started doing psychedelic-assisted therapy with patients a few years back. In fact, this little cottage on my property we built specifically for that purpose. People can come and stay here for a couple of days.There’s a bedroom on the other side of this wall. And we do therapy with them. We have a very good process of getting their hormones tested before they come, trying to correct any deficiencies or imbalances, especially cortisol and DHEA. We try to make sure that if they have immune problems that seem manageable, we maybe try to control those first. But in a lot of these people, we have to get their subconscious fire alarm to go off first because anything new that enters into their sphere of existence is seen as this, you know, scary thing. Dr. Deb Muth 34:36Yeah. Tyvincent 34:36And so what we found is getting their subconscious to settle down, getting them to integrate past whatever trauma they’ve had so that it’s no longer causing harm today from an experience 20 years ago, right? Because that’s not fair. A lot of these people, all of their immune stuff stops and I don’t even have to do LDI. And that’s fascinating. And some of them, we put them on hormone replacement, everything calms down enough. It’s like one of these things sometimes works. And in other people, they need all three. And the trick in those people is to figure out what thread you have to pull on first. You know, it’s like, well, okay. And we spend a lot of time, my wife and I both work with patients together. She’s amazing. She’s not a trained clinical clinician. You know, she had a business degree, but she’s like, she tells people I attended the school of Dr. Ty Vincent for 10 years. Dr. Deb Muth 35:20Yes. Tyvincent 35:21Heard him say all this a million times. And when we first started seeing patients from home together, she read all of my patient notes and just great. So she. Dr. Deb Muth 35:28Yeah, that’s how you learn. Tyvincent 35:30Yeah. And people like, well, I didn’t go she’s like, I didn’t go to medical school. I’m like, that’s an asset, trust me. Dr. Deb Muth (35:34-35:40)Exactly. Oh my God, you haven’t been brainwashed. Exactly. Tyvincent 35:40And you know, it’s not even so much washing as it is like throwing mud all over the walls. All of these false beliefs you’re given, and, you know, not just the beliefs, but the disbeliefs, both of those hold people back. And I was like, it’s your disbeliefs that are the bigger problem because you don’t even realize they’re there. Like when I learned about LDA, I’m like, that’s nonsense. No, it’s not. Dr. Deb Muth 36:02I’m curious, when you treat some of these complex people with LDI, are you using multiple modalities at one time, or are you being really cautious with them and using one at a time? Time, because some of them won’t let you do more than one thing at a time with them. Tyvincent 36:16And so by modalities, you mean like, are we also doing hormone therapy? Are they also doing like IV, like other things? Or you mean multiple antigens within? Dr. Deb Muth 36:24Multiple antigens, yeah. Tyvincent 36:25Um, it really depends. And early on, so I everything I know about LDI, I learned through experience, paying attention, putting connecting dots over you. And it’s been been a very long process, right? Early on, like a kid in a candy store, you see a patient and you find out, oh, they’re allergic to some foods, they’re allergic to some chemicals, they’re allergic to cats and birch tree pollen, and they also have psoriasis or whatever. And you’re like, ooh, I’m going to give you all 4 of these antigen mixtures because you have all 4 of these issues. And by 6 months in, if you’re paying attention, you are completely confused and lost. Dr. Deb Muth 37:03Yeah. Tyvincent 37:04I did that for a number of years and I thought, well, this will be the fastest way to figure things out. It turns out it’s not, unfortunately. Um, what I’ve found is more successful is if I can figure out either what the most important underlying immune reaction is for them that might be cascading into other problems, or you figure out what’s the easiest one to solve first. So if somebody has like the whole mast cell picture and they got all this stuff going on, but they say the biggest thing is I have horrible chemical reactions. I’m a tr I’m trapped in my home. I created an oasis of safety here, but I can’t go anywhere. Anyone who comes to my house has to go into the entryway and take all their clothes off and put on a jumpsuit, right? There are those people. I work with them. Dr. Deb Muth 37:40Oh yeah, I have those clients. Tyvincent 37:42They’re like, oh my God. Well, if we can fix that first, your world will open up a ton. Your fear will come down. Your immune response will come down. And so sometimes it’s a matter of which one seems the most important or which one seems easiest. Like, okay, the test exposures that they have are the most obvious and distinct. For foods and not chemicals or whatever. And the reactions people have to these different antigens can overlap tremendously or even look exactly the same, which is why you kind of need to use one at a time. Because if you’re trying to ride a bike and a motorcycle at the same time, it doesn’t go so well. Dr. Deb Muth 38:16Yeah. Tyvincent 38:16Like, let’s find where you do with where you respond to this one, and then we will have less stuff to deal with. We might have a little bit more clarity as to what you’re reacting to in other categories. And then you kind of go through them sequentially. But if I have somebody who’s not like just in a real state of immunological distress like that, and they go, yeah, I’m allergic to cats and I have a cat because I’ll never get rid of my cat. I don’t understand those people, but, but there are a lot of them. They love their cats. Dr. Deb Muth 38:43A lot of them. Yes. Tyvincent 38:44I’m like, okay, or dog, you know, I’ve had people that are horribly allergic to dogs and the dog still sleeps in bed with them every night. Dr. Deb Muth 38:50Okay. Tyvincent 38:51Um, they’ve got that, that’s very clear, very distinct. And it’s, and it’s like a rash or a runny nose. And then they also have have celiac disease, let’s say. Like, well, we can treat both of those at the same time because the symptoms are totally different. You have test exposures in both categories and you’re not so sick that you’re in a constant state of like trauma response where you can’t even pay attention to anything. Right. And so it’s kind of case by case. And my style is very, very individualized. Like I said, there’s never a protocol. It’s like, I got to talk to people for about I usually talk to people for about an hour. Yeah. More than isn’t really helpful. You know, like, in an hour of time, you’re, you’re kind of saturated with how much you can invest your bandwidth into this particular issue. Now, like, okay, I know where we’re going to start. I don’t know where we’re going to end up, but I know where we’re going to start. And so we encapsulate that and then go, let’s do this. And then everything you do teaches you more about what else you need to do.And it’s a process. I my ego used to be more tied to guessing correctly at the beginning about what was going to work work and to fixing things quickly. And over time I realized like your ego really has no place in the exam room. Like that is a very, very challenging thing for practitioners to try to figure out is how to get your ego out of this because it biases you intellectually, emotionally, and it’s a problem. And our medical colleagues probably have bigger egos than the average human in the population. Let’s be honest. Um, there’s something that comes with the years of study and the investment and the status you have, and it’s a challenge. But if you be like, I just need to be clear about what’s happening, what’s not happening, and you figure things out. And so I was able to have a much better success rate approaching things that way.And every time you put out one little fire for people, one kind of immune response, it, you, you get a better picture about what else is going on. And then eventually all their problems have stopped and you’re okay, cool. I guess we’re done. But it’s, it’s hard. And you do learn that there are still major gaps in your knowledge. And, and you asked earlier about new developments in LDI. And whatnot. And I could literally talk all day about the things that I’ve developed over the years, but I still keep making new antigens. So just last year in the area of food allergy, so like your Mast Cell people, a lot of them have food allergies that are a big part of the underlying problem, and this will be relevant to them. But what I found is a lot of the people who seem to clearly react to food, and I put food in quotes because most of what Americans eat isn’t food, right? It’s it’s at least it’s not just food, or it used to be food and now it’s not. It’s like Frankenfood, and it’s got chemicals in it. It has molecules that don’t exist in nature, so you can react to them.So I found some of these people that would say, oh, I react to processed food items horribly, but if I eat the whole foods, organic whole foods at home, I don’t react. And, um, some of those people will resolve those problems with the chemical LD mixture. So they’re reacting to chem with that. A lot of them will tell you, oh, I also react to perfume. Or gasoline or whatever. Dr. Deb Muth 41:46Yeah. Tyvincent 41:46Okay. And so you can use that and some of those cases will resolve, but a lot of them don’t. And I had increasing failures. Like I’ve been doing this long enough to see and observe that early on I had much better success with these antigen mixtures than over time. People are the pattern and the causes and the manifestations of illness today are evolving right before our eyes because of what we’ve done to our environment and our food and ourselves. So what I came to to sort of theorize about was that maybe some of these people are reacting to processed cooking oils, like seed oils, plant oils that are put into processed foods, right? Because they would tell me a couple of key cases gave me that insight. They would say, well, I still react to all these processed foods.I can’t eat at restaurants, and I’m still reacting horribly to sesame seeds, or I’m still reacting horribly to flax, or I’m still reacting horribly to, like, one of these other things we make processed seed oils from. Well, maybe they’re reacting to the oils. And when we made the food mixture, you use whole food samples, right? So you use like a, a ses like sesame seeds, or I use tahini paste because it’s easier to mix in water. But maybe the antigen, the target antigen, is something inside that that is not properly like, what’s the word I’m looking for properly given to the immune system, or, or like exposed, shown to the immune system, right, in the way that their immune system is reacting to it. Maybe it’s a molecule in there that when you use a whole food antigen is not adequately represented. It’s like, so an oil would do that.And I had actually already years ago realized that some people react to essential oils, like flower extracts or tea tree oil or lavender or whatever. Right. And so I made an essential oils mixture from plant oils from the doTERRA and the Young Living products. I had a couple of patients that were like distributors for these things. And I said, just take an empty vial and put one drop of every single product you have in it and just mail it to me. And they both did that. So I have this huge compendium of essential oils, and I would get people that would still react to oranges and lemons and citrus fruits despite the food mixture. And then the essential oils mixture would totally stop that reaction. So I’d already kind of proven that this was the case with some of those more aromatic oils, right? Now I was like, well, people are reacting to the processed cooking oils because when you take oils out of the plant, if you ever do this at home, they’re opaque and gooey and viscous. And then somehow it’s this really pretty homogeneous, clear liquid that doesn’t separate at all. It has no nothing you see in there.And then you got to wonder, how the hell did they do that? What did they do to make that? And there are all these chemical processes and heat and everything. I’m like, well, it just makes new molecules that your immune system has never seen before. So in May of 2025, I bought 18 different kinds of plant oils, and some of them are really pure, like carrot seed oil, cottonseed oil. But there’s peanut oil and avocado oil and olive oil and, you know, all the seeds and things we use in there. And I even have a video on our Facebook page and probably Instagram of me making this mixture in my kitchen.I was like, people are kind of interested how this works. And I just made it right there on camera because it’s really simple. I started using it in some of my failure cases that had really seemed like they had food allergy responses, but the food mixture didn’t work. And the first one was actually one of our employees who does our social media management. She had a 3-year-old son, I think, probably 2 years old when we started working with him, with really bad body-wide eczema, right? And he never really responded to the food mixture, essential oils, skin bacteria, skin fungi, yeast. I tried all the things that usually work. I’m like, it’s something. And so he made the oil mixture. He was they were the first one. I just sent the doses like, hey, let’s check it out. And I think he got for I started 6C for most things, which is a truly and then it’s like 5.5C, 5C. We got to 3.5C, I think, is where he is, which is a dilution of of 10 million to 1, I believe. And 95% of his eczema just completely went away. Dr. Deb Muth 45:38Wow. Tyvincent 45:39The only thing left was a couple of those patches on his feet. And one of the things I learned about people with eczema is they will have localized, like geographically local consistent reactions to different things. This is crazy, right? Dr. Deb Muth 45:53Yeah. Tyvincent 45:53Your immune system has kind of a, you know, like an overall regulatory system, but it also has regionalized systems, just like the government federal government, state government, county government, city government. It’s, it’s divided like that. So the people will eventually learn, oh, if I eat gluten, I get these itchy bumps on the side of my hand, and if I eat carrots, I get a rash on top of my head, you know. And it’s very, very clear once you identify it. So there’s still something that kid’s reacting to that I haven’t quite solved on his feet. But, um, yeah, that worked amazingly, and it actually made me cry when I got the pictures She’s like, oh, finally, after probably a year and a half of flailing, you know, we got it right. And so now I’ve been using the cooking oils mixture more and more and more. Just yesterday I got an email. I have a teenager, he’s 8, he’s maybe 18, 17, 18, with just really horrible cystic acne, painful, erupting. And the before pictures are just hard to look. I mean, he’s got horrible involvement of both sides of the face, the chest, all over his back, and you can just see the scarring and the redness and the inflammation.And we went through the food mixture with him and whatnot, and it really didn’t touch it. So yesterday I got the report. He got up to the cooking oil mixture at 2.5C, which is 10,000, 100,000 to 1, and, and his cystic acne stopped. Like, he’s getting zero new lesions. All the redness, pain, inflammation is gone, but he still has all this just scarring from it because that’s permanent, right? You have to get that repurposed. And all he has left is little tiny whitehead pimples, like maybe one new one per day here and there. You can see them now in the midst of all this. So acne is diversified. There are different kinds of acne and people can have more than one type and they can react to hormones. They can react like I’ve had guys with bad acne respond to desensitization with testosterone, for example, or women desensitizing them to estrogen or progesterone and the acne will go away sometimes. Some people respond to yeast, some people respond to skin bacteria, skin fungi. And so this is another thing. And my wife actually is one of the more complicated immunological cases I’ve ever had to work with. Working together for 10 years, um, you know, like the first time I saw her, she had Lyme disease and the Lyme LDI just totally stopped those symptoms like magic, which is great.That’s one of my favorite things to treat. Um, because the beliefs we have about Lyme disease, I have found completely untrue because using a different tool. I’m like, oh, it’s an immune problem, not an infection. So anyway, so that, that worked for her. Some of her food reactions went away, but she still continued to get like deep painful cysts if she would have nuts or dairy. And so the cooking oil mixture now, after 10 years of being together, totally stopped those reactions. Peanuts, nuts, dairy. And the dairy one is interesting to me because it’s not a plant oil, right? It’s an animal oil and it’s not represented. And we have dairy products in our other mixture. But I think what’s happening is when cows are fed grain, sometimes what an animal is eating carries through some essence or nature of that substance into the milk. Um, and the thing I’ve seen this the most clearly with is corn. Corn allergy is a very unique situation. The way people deal with it, the way it manifests, the way you have to treat it is different from every other energy. And I don’t have an hour to talk about that specifically, but I observed primarily with corn that anywhere along the food chain, you’ll still react to that food if the animal at the beginning was ever fed corn. Multiple I’ll have babies that get an eczema reaction or a GI reaction if mom eats corn-fed beef. But if mom eats grass-fed beef and then nurses the baby, they’re fine. Dr. Deb Muth 49:33Yeah, I’ve seen that too. Tyvincent 49:34It’s bizarre. Dr. Deb Muth 49:35Yeah. Tied. This has been really so amazing. Um, tell us how people can find you if, if this is resonating with them and they’re like, I need him to figure out the puzzle for me. How do they find you? Tyvincent 49:49So the best thing to do is to go to our website. Our, our business name is Global Immunotherapy, and the website is just http://www.globalimmunotherapy.com. We have, we have a much better website than we did years ago. People schedule directly through the website. Right? There’s all kinds of information. I’ve been making YouTube videos and informational videos for people for more than a decade now because nobody has any idea what I’m talking about. The more they understand it beforehand, one, they get to decide if they just think I’m crazy, right? And they don’t want to waste their time. And there are plenty of those people, but a lot end up talking to me 3 years later because after they’ve tried everybody else and there’s nothing left to try, right? Yeah, yeah, like being at the bottom of the desperation funnel. Yeah, people like, well, I heard about you 5 years ago and didn’t make sense. I’m like, yeah, cool. But then I had 3 or 4 other people over the years tell me I should talk to you. So here I am. That’s, that’s right. And people can watch all these educational instructional videos about how LDI works, what it can be used for. So the more you learn and understand what you’re getting into ahead of time, the less time we have to spend during our hour trying to explain to you the therapy., which to take up half the time and better results you’re going to get because you’re educated and it’s a partnership.Like all of us in the world of integrative medicine, one of the big differences between us and conventional medicine is we understand that it’s a partnership. You have to listen to the patient, you have to educate the patient, you have to engage them in their own health. You can’t just say, here, take this pill and come back in 3 months and I’ll check your labs again to see that you still have the same illness. It’s just and people have a lot of our population has been led to believe that just swallowing a pill is going to fix your problems. But That doesn’t work. And we have to develop a relationship and an understanding and shared knowledge and beliefs. And so people now, they have this opportunity to watch all the videos. And I really want people to do that before they ever schedule, because one, you’ll, you’ll feel like it’s the right therapy for you. And that helps a lot. Having optimism going in is super helpful. And then two, you already know a lot. So you’ll know more about what questions I might ask you and how to answer them. You’ll know more about about how the therapy works, and I won’t have to explain it to you, and we’ll get a better use of our time. And then people can schedule right through the website with either myself or my wife Jeanette. And anybody who Jeanette talks to, she reviews every case with me, and we work together with stuff. And, but in terms of like using LDI, she’s probably the second or third best practitioner in the world. I
