Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 3-12-2026: Dr. Dawn discusses Michael Pollan's critique of MAHA dietary recommendations, agreeing that ultra-processed foods should be avoided but noting the lack of science supporting high saturated fat intake. She acknowledges extra virgin coconut oil as an exception that doesn't raise LDL, and pushes back on the social Darwinism embedded in anti-vaccine, anti-welfare MAHA thinking. Dr. Dawn expresses serious concern about Surgeon General nominee Casey Means, a Stanford-trained physician who dropped out of residency to become a wellness influencer. She objects to Means hawking supplements and glucose monitors for personal profit—conduct she considers unethical for a physician giving medical advice. An emailer from Switzerland shares success managing histamine intolerance by avoiding aged meats, shellfish, fermented foods, and cross-reactive pollens during hay fever season. The game-changer was taking DAO (diamine oxidase) supplements before meals to break down histamine in the gut. Researchers found that blood from pediatricians who worked in children's hospitals for over a decade contains powerful antibodies against RSV—up to 25% more effective than existing treatments—built up through years of constant exposure. Dr. Dawn critiques a study finding 2.5 times more microplastics in prostate tumor tissue than surrounding healthy tissue, noting that fast-growing cancers develop extra blood vessels and would naturally incorporate more circulating plastics. She attributes the 6% rise in late-stage prostate cancer to discontinued PSA screening rather than microplastics. An emailer asks what to do about microplastics already in our bodies. Dr. Dawn says there's no way to remove them, and advises avoiding microwaving in plastic, limiting breaded processed foods, and rinsing well after brushing teeth with plastic bristles. AI analysis of mammograms can now detect breast artery calcification as a marker for cardiovascular disease risk, with severe calcification indicating 3.3 times greater risk of heart attack, stroke, or death. This could identify high-risk women years before cardiac events. Dr. Dawn questions a non-peer-reviewed study presented at an orthopedic meeting found five years of GLP-1 drug use associated with 30% higher osteoporosis risk, 150% higher osteomalacia risk, and increased tendon ruptures—likely from reduced food intake and vitamin D consumption. Twin studies now estimate genetics account for 55% of lifespan variation when separating internal biological causes from external factors. Separately, fathers who showed warmth and responsiveness to 10-month-old babies had children with lower inflammation and better blood sugar regulation at age 7—an effect not seen with mothers' parenting. Grandparents actively involved in childcare showed slower cognitive decline than non-caregiving grandparents. Dancing emerged as the standout physical activity for dementia prevention—combining aerobic exercise, social interaction, music, and motor coordination—with three hours weekly showing observable benefits.
Epidemiologist Yvonne “Bonnie” Maldonado is an expert in vaccine research and public health. Look back centuries, and the story is always the same, she says: Death rates from viruses have plummeted, especially in children and the elderly. And yet, millions of children die each year from vaccine-preventable diseases. Vaccines need a return of public confidence, and that starts with better messaging and greater support of nongovernmental messengers like herself. The bottom line is that vaccines are safe, she says. Vaccines work and we have saved many lives because of them, Maldonado reminds host Russ Altman on this episode of Stanford Engineering's The Future of Everything podcast. Have a question for Russ?

It's an era of breakthroughs in Alzheimer's research, yet for many clinicians, it's also a time of profound uncertainty. We are currently navigating competing definitions of the disease, multiple new biomarkers coming on market seemingly every week, and the clinical rollout of new amyloid antibodies. How do we translate this rapid-fire science into daily practice? On this week's GeriPal podcast, we sit down with dementia experts Halima Amjad, Barak Gaster, and Heather Whitson. We dive deep into: The evolving definitions of Alzheimer's disease. Does someone have Alzheimer's disease if you have only an abnormal biomarker as defined by the Alzheimer's Association, or is amyloid pathology necessary but not sufficient to define Alzheimer's as per the International Working Group (IWG) recommendations? Where do blood-based biomarkers for Alzheimer's fit into the diagnostic workup, and should they be used at all in primary care? FYI - here is my take on that question in a recent JAMA IM article titled "The Limited Role of Alzheimer's Disease Blood-Based Biomarkers in Primary Care." What's the role of amyloid antibodies in the care of individuals with Alzheimer's disease, including who to use them on? We covered a lot and discussed some of these resources that you can do a deeper dive on: Blood-based biomarker resources JAMA article on Blood-Based Biomarkers for Alzheimer's Disease: Preventing Unintended Consequences Alzheimer's Dementia article on Blood-based biomarkers for detecting Alzheimer's disease pathology in cognitively impaired individuals within specialized care settings: A systematic review and meta-analysis JAMA IM article on The Limited Role of Alzheimer Disease Blood-Based Biomarkers in Primary Care Appropriate use recommendations for amyloid antibodies Donanemab: Appropriate use recommendations Lecanemab: Appropriate Use Recommendations Primary Care Resources Cognition in Primary Care program A JAGS article on "Large Health System Quality Improvement Intervention Providing Training and Tools to Improve Detection of Cognitive Impairment in Primary Care" Other resources AGS's new online curriculum for Alzheimer's Disease By Eric Widera
In this week's episode, Blood editor Dr. Laura Michaelis interviews authors Drs. Marion Falabrègue and Ajai Chari on their papers published in volume 146 issue 24 of Blood. The work of Dr. Falabrègue and colleagues in "Intestinal hepcidin overexpression promotes iron deficiency anemia and counteracts iron overload via DMT1 downregulation" indicates that iron absorption from the apical surface of enterocytes can be modulated through manipulation of the hepcidin-DMT1 interaction, opening new avenues for research and therapeutic manipulation. "Talquetamab plus daratumumab in multiple myeloma" features a phase 1b/2 trial of 65 heavily pretreated patients with MM, where Chari et al combined daratumumab and talquetamab, a GPRC5D-targeting bispecific antibody, reporting depletion of CD38-expressing regulatory T cells following daratumumab and impressive efficacy, with an 80% overall (57% complete) response rate and median progression-free survival of 23.3 months. This regimen is now being evaluated in a phase 3 trial.
Dr. Alex Marson, MD, PhD, is a professor of medicine at the University of California, San Francisco. We discuss the biology of the immune system and cancer, and everyday choices that can increase or decrease your cancer risk, several of which are surprising but all of which are actionable. We also discuss immunotherapy, including how engineered T-cells can be used to defeat childhood and adult cancers. Dr. Marson explains CRISPR and gene editing to cure diseases, and we address the ethical questions surrounding gene editing in embryos, children and adults. This discussion is for anyone interested in avoiding cancer and/or seeking to understand the science and practical applications of immune- or gene-therapy. Read the show notes at hubermanlab.com.

In today's episode, we spoke with Eric K. Singhi, MD. Dr Singhi is an assistant professor in the departments of general oncology and thoracic/head and neck medical oncology at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston.Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are rapidly emerging as one of the most exciting therapeutic advances in lung cancer. In this episode, Singhi explored how TROP2-directed ADCs are beginning to reshape treatment strategies across both non–small cell and small cell lung cancer.Singhi discussed where these agents currently fit within the treatment algorithm for EGFR-mutant non–small cell lung cancer, including the recent accelerated approval of datopotamab deruxtecan-dlnk (Datroway; Dato-DXd) and the evolving clinical data supporting its use after progression on targeted therapy and platinum-based chemotherapy. He also examined emerging evidence for other TROP2-targeting agents such as sacituzumab tirumotecan (sac-TMT) and what early trial results suggest about response rates and future treatment sequencing.Beyond efficacy, Singhi highlighted the practical considerations oncologists must navigate as ADCs enter routine practice, from managing chemotherapy-like toxicities to monitoring for unique adverse effects such as stomatitis, ocular effects, and interstitial lung disease.In our exclusive interview, Dr Singhi discussed where agents like dato-DXd and sac-TMT may fit in evolving treatment algorithms, the clinical data driving their momentum, and what oncologists should consider as these therapies move closer to routine practice in lung cancer.

In this Q&A episode, Dr. Eric answers listener-submitted questions all about thyroid antibodies—what they are, why they matter, and how they impact both Graves' disease and Hashimoto's thyroiditis. He begins by clarifying the three main thyroid antibodies—TPO, TSI/TRAB, and thyroglobulin antibodies—and explains why understanding these markers is critical when assessing true remission.Throughout the episode, Dr. Eric addresses common concerns such as: Can you be in remission if antibodies are still positive? How often should antibodies be tested? Can diet alone normalize them? He also explores the role of environmental triggers, gut health, gluten, iodine, and even supplements like selenium, black seed oil, and low-dose naltrexone (LDN). You'll hear practical guidance on why antibodies fluctuate, what “optimal” really means (not just “within range”), and why many conventional endocrinologists don't routinely monitor these markers.If you're confused about your antibody results—or wondering why you relapsed after being told you were “in remission”—this episode will help you connect the dots. If you want a clearer, more balanced understanding of thyroid antibodies and what they really mean for your recovery, you'll get a lot out of this episode.If you want to subscribe to my free Healing Graves' Naturally newsletter visithttps://savemythyroid.com/GravesNewsletter Free resources for your thyroid healthGet your FREE Thyroid and Immune Health Restoration Action Points Checklist at SaveMyThyroidChecklist.comHigh-Quality Nutritional Supplements For Hyperthyroidism and Hashimoto' s Have you checked out my new ThyroSave supplement line?

Secreted frizzled-related protein 2 is a protein that helps cancers grow by supporting the formation of new blood vessels, stopping cancer cells from dying, and weakening immune cells that should recognize and attack cancer cells. Dr. Nancy Klauber-DeMore is developing an antibody that blocks this protein. Early research suggests the antibody may halt the growth of triple-negative breast cancer. Listen to the episode to hear Dr. Klauber-DeMore explain: what secreted frizzled-related protein 2 does and why she thought blocking it might help treat breast cancer why she's focusing her work on triple-negative breast cancer the next steps for the antibody she and her team have developed

What if your TSH is “normal,” but your thyroid is still part of the fertility story? In this episode of Cycle Wisdom, Dr. Monica Minjeur breaks down how thyroid antibodies—specifically thyroid peroxidase (TPO) and thyroglobulin antibodies—can impact ovulation, luteal phase health, and early pregnancy, even when standard thyroid screening looks reassuring.Through Isla's story of recurrent miscarriage and persistent thyroid symptoms despite a normal TSH, we explore why antibodies often appear years before overt thyroid disease, how they subtly disrupt hormone signaling, and why they matter so much in restorative reproductive care. You'll learn which labs are frequently missed, how inflammation and autoimmunity affect implantation, and what cycle-timed, nutrition-based, and medical strategies can help stabilize thyroid function long-term.If you've been told “your labs are normal” but your symptoms and cycles say otherwise, this episode will help you move from uncertainty to a clear, personalized plan.

Recorded October 31, 2025 In this episode of BioTalk Unzipped, Gregory Austin and Dr. Chad Briscoe sit down with Dr. Kate Neville, immunologist turned seasoned biotech patent attorney at Marshall, Gerstein & Borun, to unpack one of the most misunderstood and mission-critical areas of life sciences: intellectual property.If you are a biotech founder, scientist, executive, or investor, this conversation is essential listening.We explore what patent prosecution really means, when startups should begin thinking about IP protection, how “freedom to operate” can determine commercial viability, and how emerging AI tools are reshaping the patent landscape.Dr. Neville brings 25+ years of experience guiding university spin-outs, biotech startups, and global pharmaceutical companies through complex patent strategy. She has helped secure patents for FDA-approved drugs and offers a rare dual perspective as both scientist and attorney.In This Episode We Discuss:• The difference between patent prosecution and patent litigation• Why it is never too early for biotech startups to think about IP• The U.S. one-year grace period vs. Europe's stricter disclosure rules• What “Freedom to Operate” really means for commercialization• Antibody patents, CDR regions, and the doctrine of equivalents• How premature disclosure can impact global patent strategy• The real-world back-and-forth of patent office “office actions”• AI-assisted prior art search at the USPTO — opportunity or risk?• How funding cycles influence patent filing decisions• Women in biotech leadership and venture funding disparities• The most rewarding part of protecting life-changing therapiesWe also break down the USPTO's new AI pilot programs designed to modernize patent examination and discuss how artificial intelligence may impact biotech patenting over the next several years.Why This MattersIntellectual property is often the single most valuable asset in a biotech company.Strong IP strategy can unlock funding, partnerships, and market exclusivity.Weak or mistimed IP decisions can permanently limit global opportunity.For founders and scientists: timing, geography, and disclosure discipline matter more than most people realize.About Our GuestDr. Kate NevillePartner, Marshall, Gerstein & BorunPhD in Immunology, JDLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kate-neville-phd/Firm Bio: https://www.marshallip.com/katherine-l-neville-ph-d/Charity Highlight: Girls on the Run ChicagoAn organization building confidence and resilience in young girls through mentorship and athletic achievement.https://www.girlsontherun.org/HostsDr. Chad BriscoeBioanalytical Scientific Leaderhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/chadbriscoe/Gregory AustinDirector, Business Development | Bioanalysishttps://www.linkedin.com/in/gregoryaustin1/If you enjoyed this episode, subscribe to BioTalk Unzipped on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred platform and share with a colleague in biotech, pharma, or life sciences innovation.
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… Sami: Hi Dr. Cabral! I am currently doing your 21 day detox. I am loving every second of it. For one of my meals I decided to have red beats as my carb/veggie. I had this for two dinner meals in a row and noticed the redness in my stool showed up the next morning after my second meal and then 48 hours after my second meal. I read online that eating red beats can help display gut transit time. I know red beats normally turn your stool a red/pink color in general. Are red beats a good natural/home remedy to decide gut transit time? Or would something like the blue poop test work best? Larissa: Hello! My patient recently tested positive for EBV VCA IgM antibodies with positive EBV IgG antibodies but negative early EBV antigen and EBNA levels. She is experiencing fatigue. Would you consider this an acute or reactivated infection? Could it be a false positive? Would you treat this? Thank you in advance! Katrina: As I explore your protocol options and tests, how would having gastric bypass, 22 years ago affect the results to achieve optimal health. Will the products be effective due to potential absorption issues? Ateba: Hello Dr.Cabral, I've had some bony growth behind my teeth over the last decade. I believe it's called Mandibular Tori. It seems to have grown quite a bit the last few years. My dentist says it's from jaw clenching, which I had during sleep for quite some time, but I've also heard other things (nutrition deficiencies/toxicity's etc). Don't have parasites according to my stool test, just excessive stress. Wondering if you have any recommendations for this condition. God Bless. Lisa: Hi Dr Cabral! I listen to you daily, thank you for your knowledge and swear by your functional detox a few times a year! I have been waking up recently (about the last year now) with a mouth full of saliva and I'm forced to get up to spit. I sleep really well - straight through the night, yet this is a bit concerning to me. Any ideas?

Why do so many people still feel hypothyroid when their labs look "normal"? In this episode of Thyroid Answers, Dr. Eric Balcavage completes the thyroid lab conversation by addressing three of the most misunderstood tests in thyroid care: reverse T3, T3 uptake, and thyroid antibodies. You'll learn: What reverse T3 actually represents—and why it rises or falls Why high reverse T3 does not mean blocked T3 receptors How T3 medication lowers reverse T3 by suppressing T4, not by improving physiology What the T3 uptake test measures and why it still matters Why free T4 and free T3 can be misleading without total hormone levels How binding proteins, estrogen, liver function, inflammation, and medications affect interpretation What thyroid antibodies do—and do not—tell us about thyroid damage and disease activity This episode is essential listening if you've been told your thyroid is "optimized," yet symptoms persist—or if you're trying to understand why thyroid medications work for some people and cause instability for others. This discussion sets the stage for the February series on thyroid medication physiology, including T4-only therapy, T3 therapy, combination therapy, and desiccated thyroid.
Thyroid issues can feel confusing — especially when you're told your TSH is “off,” you have antibodies, or you're prescribed medication without fully understanding what's going on. The Lanby's Dr. Stephanie Wallman, Medical Director, breaks down what thyroid dysfunction actually means, how to interpret your labs, and how to support your thyroid with a root-cause, whole-body approach.On this “One Take on One Take” episode:Tip 1: Understand what your TSH, Free T3, Free T4, and thyroid antibodies really mean — and why TSH alone doesn't tell the full story.Tip 2: Learn how gluten, iodine imbalance, stress, and toxin exposure can trigger or worsen thyroid dysfunction and autoimmune thyroid conditions.Tip 3: Know when lifestyle, nutrition, and stress optimization are enough — and when thyroid medication like Synthroid may be appropriate as part of comprehensive care.Subscribe to Get Well Better by The Lanby: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/get-well-better Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/get-well-better YouTube: @TheLanby Or search “Get Well Better by The Lanby” on your favorite podcast platform!VISIT THE LANBY: Explore membership and learn more about The Lanby's functional medicine approach:https://www.thelanby.comFOLLOW THE LANBY ON SOCIAL: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thelanby Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thelanby LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/thelanbySTAY IN THE KNOW: Subscribe to The Lanby newsletter for health tips, podcast drops, and expert insights: https://www.thelanby.com/newsletter
Good morning from Pharma Daily: the podcast that brings you the most important developments in the pharmaceutical and biotech world. Today, we'll delve into the multitude of changes and advancements sweeping across the industry, each with profound implications for drug development, patient care, and market dynamics.The pharmaceutical landscape continues to transform as companies like Daiichi Sankyo make significant progress with antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). Their collaboration with AstraZeneca on products like Enhertu and Datroway represents a robust push into earlier lines of therapy. This strategic move aligns with a broader industry trend where ADCs are being positioned as front-line oncology treatments. These therapies are lauded for their targeted delivery mechanisms that maximize therapeutic efficacy while minimizing off-target effects. However, the competitive landscape is becoming increasingly fierce, necessitating robust clinical data to stand out in this rapidly evolving market segment.Elsewhere, Moderna's recent decision to pause new late-stage trials for infectious disease vaccines highlights the intricate interplay between public sentiment and corporate strategy. The rising anti-vaccine sentiment in the U.S., compounded by diminishing support infrastructure from previous administrations, has significantly influenced Moderna's strategic recalibration. This situation underscores a critical challenge for developers of mRNA platforms: how to navigate complex public perceptions and policy landscapes while pushing forward with vaccine innovations.From a regulatory perspective, Recipharm's commissioning of a new facility in Bengaluru, India for non-bacterial beta-lactam drugs aligns with evolving FDA standards. This investment is not just about compliance; it's a proactive adaptation to meet rising customer demand and represents a strategic partnership with a major biopharmaceutical player. Such collaborations are crucial as they help scale drug production capabilities effectively.The dissolution of the marketing partnership between Arcutis and Kowa over Zoryve reflects the ever-dynamic nature of commercial collaborations within the industry. Originally intended to broaden Zoryve's market beyond dermatologists to include primary care physicians, this shift may indicate strategic realignments or divergent priorities between partners. Such changes can significantly impact market penetration strategies and highlight the importance of aligned goals within partnerships.In Europe, regulatory expansion by GSK of its Arexvy vaccine for all adults marks a pivotal milestone in widening access to crucial vaccines. This development not only enhances GSK's market presence but also underscores the agility required in regulatory responses to public health needs.On the financial front, settlements under the False Claims Act reaching $6.8 billion in FY2025 demonstrate heightened scrutiny on compliance practices within the industry. This serves as a stark reminder of both financial and reputational risks tied to non-compliance and underscores an ongoing need for stringent oversight mechanisms.Amidst economic uncertainties, AstraZeneca's decision to pause its UK research site investment reflects broader industry challenges related to strategic reallocations of resources. Companies are increasingly re-evaluating their geographic footprints and investment priorities in response to evolving market conditions.In precision oncology, Guardant Health's FDA approval for its Guardant360 CDx test in conjunction with Pfizer's Braftovi highlights how companion diagnostics are becoming integral in enhancing therapeutic outcomes through tailoring treatments based on specific genetic profiles. These developments illustrate a multifaceted landscape where scientific innovation, regulatory changes, strategic partnerships, and compliance considerations converge.The recent landscapSupport the show
