In this episode of the Healthy & Awake Podcast, Mike Vera talks with immunotoxicologist Dori Smith, who reversed seven autoimmune diseases after being disabled for over a decade. They dive into the root causes of chronic inflammation, the science behind detoxification, and how functional medicine can help the body heal naturally. Dori shares how understanding genetics, nutrition, toxins, and faith transformed her life—and why conventional medicine still overlooks these key insights. If you've ever wondered whether true recovery from chronic illness is possible, this conversation will change your perspective.

In this empowering episode of Keeping Abreast, Dr. Jenn Simmons welcomes Dr. Will Cole, a leading functional medicine expert, to explore what it truly means to find the root causes of disease and take back ownership of your health.Dr. Cole shares his path from conventional to functional medicine and how telehealth revolutionized his ability to connect with patients worldwide. Together, he and Dr. Jenn unpack the modern health landscape—from the rise of autoimmune conditions and hormonal imbalances to the challenges of medical politics and social media's influence on health narratives.The conversation highlights why empowerment, collaboration, and bioindividuality are the future of medicine—and how you can become an active participant in your own healing journey.

Ever wonder why you can't stop craving sugar and carbs no matter how hard you try? It's not about willpower; it's about the wrong bacteria controlling your gut. Paul Barattiero, founder of Echo Water and pioneer in hydrogen therapy, reveals the shocking truth behind those relentless food cravings. Your gut should naturally produce 10-12 liters of hydrogen gas daily through proper fermentation, but most of us are nowhere near that. In this conversation, Paul shares how he accidentally discovered hydrogen water while desperately trying to heal his wife's severe health issues. What he found changed everything: 96% of your gut bacteria need a specific electrical environment to thrive, and when they don't get it, the wrong bacteria take over - literally controlling what you crave. I dive deep into the science behind why your microbiome needs negative electrical potential, how hydrogen water creates the perfect terrain for healing, and why you might finally be able to eat foods you've been avoiding for years. This isn't another wellness trend… We're talking about 1,500+ studies and real solutions for chronic inflammation and autoimmunity!For the complete show notes, links and transcripts visit inspiredliving.show/215

In this episode, Dr. Shaun Jackson uses a compelling patient case to illuminate the complex mechanisms of immune tolerance and autoimmunity. He explains how B cells learn to avoid targeting the body's own tissues through central and peripheral tolerance—and how these safeguards can fail. The discussion covers the roles of germinal centers, T cells, and rare genetic disorders in shaping immune regulation, with Alport's syndrome and post-transplant Goodpasture's disease serving as striking examples. Dr. Jackson also reflects on emerging directions in autoimmune research and shares his journey from medical training in South Africa to leading a research program in Seattle, offering valuable insights for future physician-scientists.

Why does brain inflammation happen during the freeze response? How do you explain the difference between stress and trauma to patients? What's the single most important starting point for nervous system regulation? This episode answers these critical questions while revealing why emotional eating isn't a willpower problem and introducing the simple three-day tracking tool that changes everything for healing. You'll discover the critical line of overwhelm - that invisible threshold where stress becomes trauma - and learn practical strategies you can implement immediately to support your nervous system and begin the repair process. In this episode you'll learn: [01:19] The Biggest Myth: Why confusing stress and trauma leads to minimizing experiences and self-shame  [02:11] Physician's Lens on Trauma: If it makes you sick 20 years later, it wasn't just stress  [06:04] Three Nervous System States: Understanding polyvagal theory and the critical line of overwhelm  [09:52] Brain Inflammation During Freeze: Why immune cells unleash inflammation as protective survival strategy  [13:25] Dysregulation Multiplied by Time: Why autoimmunity takes 20 years of nervous system dysregulation to appear  [14:40] Three-Day Nervous System Journal: Simple hourly tracking tool that reveals hidden patterns  [19:00] The Gut-Brain Connection: Why your gut is inseparable from brain health and trauma loops  [21:22] Emotional Eating and Functional Freeze: Understanding food's hidden functions beyond willpower  [24:40] The #1 Starting Point: Why quality sleep has greatest impact on nervous system regulation  [25:44] Aligning with Circadian Rhythm: Morning sunlight, red light therapy, and working with your body's healing strategies Main Takeaways: Stress vs. Trauma Requires Different Repair: If it makes you sick 20 years later, it was trauma requiring fundamentally different approaches than stress management The Critical Line of Overwhelm: Personal capacity threshold where activation becomes trauma and the body automatically hits emergency brake Brain Inflammation Serves Protection: Immune cells unleash inflammation during freeze to facilitate disconnection and energy conservation for survival Time Compounds Dysregulation: Autoimmunity requires approximately 20 years of nervous system dysregulation to manifest as diagnosable disease Three-Day Tracking Creates Awareness: Hourly nervous system tracking reveals patterns showing time spent in shutdown, stress, or calm aliveness Innate Healing Requires Right Conditions: Surgical incisions prove the body heals itself when blocks are removed and proper support provided Gut-Brain Creates Stuck Points: Imbalanced gut causes neurochemical problems feeding back to worsen gut issues, limiting therapy progress Food Function Reveals Need: Emotional eating serves specific purposes - staying awake, avoiding feelings, managing energy - not willpower failure Sleep Impacts Everything: Quality sleep has greatest single effect on nervous system regulation and reduces sugar cravings Notable Quotes: "If it makes you sick 20 years later, that was not just stress. That was trauma your body was experiencing in childhood. You're looking at it through the lens of your adult self now, but that's not how you were experiencing it back then." "The critical line of overwhelm is where you've done your best. Your best wasn't good enough, and hitting the wall means there's no point in trying anymore." "Brain inflammation is part of a trauma response. Sometimes it triggers it. Sometimes it's triggered by the freeze response, but they always happen together." "Dysregulation multiplied by time becomes diagnoses. It's predictable." "Track your nervous system, and you'll be amazed at how much you learn about yourself in a week."   Episode Takeaway: The critical line of overwhelm represents your personal threshold where stress becomes trauma and your body automatically engages the emergency brake. Brain inflammation during freeze is part of the deliberate survival strategy - helping you disconnect, go numb, and conserve energy for survival. The insight: dysregulation multiplied by time becomes disease. Autoimmunity takes approximately 20 years of compounded nervous system dysregulation to manifest. This explains why short-term stress doesn't cause chronic illness but prolonged trauma patterns do. The three-day nervous system journal - tracking your inner state hourly - reveals patterns invisible to both practitioners and clients. This tracking tool shows how much time you spend in each of the three states and guides targeted intervention. Quality sleep stands as the single most powerful starting point for nervous system regulation. Better sleep reduces emotional eating, decreases sugar cravings, and increases your capacity to handle stress before crossing that critical line into trauma territory.

Summary In this truncated replay, Dr. Jason Hawkes discusses the complexities of urticaria, a skin condition often overlooked in dermatology. He highlights the importance of understanding urticaria's symptoms, diagnosis, and management, particularly in chronic cases. The conversation also touches on the relationship between urticaria and autoimmune diseases, the necessity of testing, and the overall approach to treatment. Takeaways - Dermatology has historically overlooked urticaria management. - Urticaria is characterized by transient lesions lasting hours. - Chronic urticaria can persist for years without clear triggers. - Women are more likely to experience chronic urticaria due to autoimmune factors. - Extensive testing for urticaria is often unnecessary and unhelpful. - Understanding the nature of angioedema is crucial in diagnosis. - Patients may experience both hives and angioedema simultaneously. - Management strategies should focus on improving patient quality of life. - Autoimmunity plays a significant role in urticaria cases. - Education and awareness are key in dermatology practices regarding urticaria.

In this follow-up episode, we dig deeper into the connection between your mouth and your overall health. We'll talk about how autoimmune conditions are linked to oral health, the role of the microbiome in both the mouth and gut, and what to consider when making decisions about root canals. You'll also learn how gum disease and gingivitis play a role in inflammation, why probiotics can help both oral and gut health, and how health issues can sometimes show up in the mouth before anywhere else. At the heart of it all is the reminder that our bodies are designed to heal—we just need to create the right environment.

I'm busting the biggest autoimmune myths with Dr. Cory Rice, who went from solving cold cases in forensics to solving the puzzle of autoimmune disease. This isn't your typical "manage your condition" conversation - we're talking about actual reversal and why these conditions aren't rare anymore (affecting 1 in 10 people!). Dr. Rice explains why 70% of your immune system lives in your gut, why women are disproportionately affected, and reveals his mandatory gut testing approach that's helping patients reclaim their lives. If you've been told there's no hope or you just need to "manage" your autoimmune condition, this episode will change your perspective completely.For the complete show notes, links and transcript visit inspiredliving.show/212

In this episode, Dr. Tony Ebel breaks down the science behind folinic acid (Leucovorin), FRAT testing, and cerebral folate deficiency. But he also explains why focusing only on medications, gut health, and inflammation often leaves families stuck.

GLP-1s are everywhere right now, but most people may not use them in the best way especially with thyroid issues. McCall McPherson joins Inna to explain why standard dosing creates all the side effects you hear about, and how a specific way of microdosing changes everything,  especially for those with thyroid conditions.This conversation goes beyond weight loss. McCall breaks down how to use GLP-1s properly for thyroid bodies so food, muscle, and metabolism stay intact. She shares why slower loss is actually healthier, how to know if your doctor's approach is too aggressive and the overlooked benefits these medications can bring when done right.One of the biggest? Inflammation. They discuss how proper use can calm inflammation in ways food alone sometimes can't, and what happens to markers and symptoms when it does. They also dive into low dose naltrexone, when to pair it with GLP-1s, and how it supports autoimmunity without shutting down the immune system.For full show notes, please see: https://innatopiler.com/podcasts/glp-1s-microdosing-thyroid-inflammation-hashimotos-mccall-mcpherson/Get ThyroLove - the first all in one bottle multi-nutrient comprehensive formula designed specifically for those with Thyroid Autoimmunity at ThyroLove.com - use code “Podcast” to get 10% off and free shipping For more information about everything Hashimoto's please visit InnaTopiler.comIf you are struggling to lose weight with Hashimoto's, Inna has a 10 day plan just for you at InnaTopiler.com/jumpstartIf you need help with fatigue or brain fog with Hashimoto's, please check out Inna's 9 Day Exhaustion Solution at innatopiler.com/energyIf you don't yet know your thyroid type, please be sure you sign up for Inna's next free training at InnaTopiler.com/zoomcall

After two pregnancies—and nearly a year of feeling like she had the flu every day—Morgan (a pediatric cardiology professional and mom of two) was told “labs look normal.” Still, she had daily joint pain, low-grade fevers, shortness of breath, chest pain, dramatic weight loss, GI issues, and profound fatigue. In this raw and hopeful conversation, Dr. Isabelle Amigues shows what happens when a doctor truly listens, investigates beyond the surface, and aims for full remission—not 80%.If you've been dismissed, told to “wait it out,” or lost in the system, this episode is your proof: there is a path forward.What You'll LearnPostpartum red flags beyond “just thyroid”: when “normal labs” miss the full storyWhy low-grade daily fevers + severe fatigue should never be dismissedThe role of imaging and targeted therapy (incl. biologics) in speeding reliefHow mindset + clear plans (aiming for remission, not “good enough”) change outcomeThe difference time and listening make vs. quick, paperwork-driven visitsPractical ways to protect your energy and rebuild life after chronic symptomsWhy second (and third) opinions can be life-giving—and how to advocate for yourselfKey Topics CoveredMorgan's postpartum timeline: thyroiditis after baby #1 → much worse after baby #2The “normal labs” trap: significant symptoms with reassuring bloodworkDaily life on empty: parenting with profound fatigue, dizziness, and chest symptomsThe turning point: fevers as the objective sign that demanded deeper workupWhat felt different at UnabridgedMD: time, validation, a plan, and hopeTreatment philosophy: aim for 100%, iterate quickly if the first med isn't “the one”Mindset matters: keeping hope without denying reality (Isabelle's oncology lesson: “We're going for cure.”)Health system realities: too little time with patients, too much admin, and how listening saves time (and lives)Self-advice in hindsight: don't settle and guard your energyJoy returns: biking with kids, cooking, reconnecting—and rock climbing againGet in touch with guest Morgan: Morgan Town: Instagram @morgan.kaileyIf Morgan's story gave you hope, share this episode with a friend who's still searching for answers.Subscribe on YouTube for new episodes and practical remission-focused guidance.Have a question for Dr. Amigues?

You push through exhaustion, telling yourself it's just stress. Your body sends signals you can't ignore: chronic fatigue, unexplained pain, digestive issues, mood swings. What if these are messages about the emotional wounds that remain unresolved from your past? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Partha Nandi for a conversation on chronic health issues, share five key insights that transform how we understand trauma's biological impact. This episode gives you the core concepts from the new book, The Biology of Trauma, about how trauma impacts your body, your own biology maintains the survival state and the repair tools needed for healing.   Key Topics & Timestamps: [00:50] Why I Wrote This Book: For the high-performing person who doesn't realize their body is accumulating trauma until a health crisis forces recognition [01:18] The 2014 Wake-Up Call: From marathon runner to unable to get out of bed during surgery residency - the moment everything changed [03:01] Trauma as Biology, Not Psychology: How adverse childhood experiences become measurable disease patterns decades later [04:29] The Biology of Being Stuck: Understanding functional freeze and why growth becomes impossible in trauma states [06:14] Science-Based Healing Pathways: Creating biology of safety through mitochondrial support, antioxidants, and repair tools [08:26] What Makes This Book Different: Bridging Western medicine with trauma healing using specific biomarkers and measurable changes [10:30] Beyond Trauma-Informed Awareness: Why awareness without actionable tools still fails patients and what to do instead [17:00] Insight #1 - Internal Response Matters: Trauma isn't the event - it's your body's five-step sequence during overwhelm [19:01] Insight #2 - The Critical Line: Your invisible boundary between experiences that grow you versus break you [21:23] Insight #3 - Cellular Trauma Reality: How mitochondria literally change shape and function during overwhelm [23:51] Insight #4 - Essential Sequence: Safety, support, then expansion - why most people skip the crucial first step [26:54] Insight #5 - Biology as Healing Ally: How the same systems holding trauma become your greatest recovery resource   Main Takeaways: Trauma Becomes Biology: Adverse experiences create measurable changes in cellular function, mitochondrial energy production, and nervous system regulation that can manifest decades later Cell Danger Response: When overwhelm crosses a critical threshold, mitochondria physically change shape and switch to survival energy systems, creating chronic symptoms Universal Trauma Response Pattern: All overwhelming experiences follow the same five-step sequence - startle, stress, powerlessness, freeze, shutdown - regardless of the trigger Biological Markers Matter: Heart rate variability, mitochondrial function, and inflammatory markers provide objective evidence of trauma's cellular impact Critical Line of Overwhelm: Everyone has an invisible threshold between experiences that grow us versus break us, which shifts daily based on current capacity Essential Sequence for Healing: Recovery requires three phases - safety, support, then expansion - with most approaches failing by skipping biological safety first Integration is Required: Trauma affects mind, body, and biology simultaneously, requiring coordinated intervention across all levels for lasting change Personalized Repair Approach: Effective healing identifies individual biological blocks rather than applying generic protocols to complex trauma presentations Cellular Recovery is Possible: The same mitochondria that hold trauma patterns can restore optimal function when given proper conditions and support   Notable Quotes "I wrote it really for the person who I used to be. I used to be the person who, despite all of my education, despite even being a very, I would say, high performing person, I didn't realize how much trauma my body was holding and I didn't realize it until I got very sick." "Your cells experience trauma too. You can't therapy or supplement your way out when your cells and body systems are stuck in survival mode." "Your mitochondria literally change shape, becoming round and rigid instead of long and flexible, and they switch to a backup energy system that produces less energy but can function under threat." "When you cross that critical line of overwhelm, your cells engage their own emergency break called the cell danger response. Just like your nervous system shuts down for protection, your cellular powerhouses, your mitochondria shift from efficient energy production to barely surviving." "Most people skip the safety phase though and jump straight into deep processing, and this often retraumatizes them." "Your symptoms are messengers, your reactions are information, and your healing journey becomes a collaboration with the incredible wisdom your body has been holding all along." "It gives me a language to explain myself, my trauma, and my experience to others." - Early Reader   Episode Takeaway The Biology of Trauma book reveals how adverse experiences rewire cellular function through the cell danger response, causing mitochondria to shift into survival mode and creating chronic health problems years later. Understanding trauma's biological reality at the cellular level provides both validation for mysterious symptoms and specific repair tools. When mitochondria are stuck in survival mode, psychological interventions alone cannot restore optimal cellular function - healing requires addressing biological dysfunction through targeted mitochondrial support, reducing cellular inflammation, and following the essential sequence of safety, support, and expansion at the cellular level. This integrated approach bridges the gap between understanding trauma's impact and having actionable tools to address it, offering hope for those whose symptoms have resisted conventional treatment by targeting the root biological mechanisms where trauma actually lives.   Resources Related To This Episode Resources/Guides: The Biology of Trauma book - Available now everywhere books are sold.

In this second part of my conversation with Dr. Felice Gersh, we shift the focus to progesterone and what it really means for your health. You've probably heard that progesterone is only important if you have a uterus, or that it's just about preventing uterine cancer, but that's far from the whole story.You'll hear why oral progesterone, the most common form prescribed, may actually be doing more harm than good, how it creates unnaturally high levels of certain metabolites that can sedate the brain, and why this could even impact memory long-term. We also talk about safer and more effective ways to use progesterone that actually work with your body.And if you're in menopause, or even decades past it, you'll discover why cycling hormones still matters and how it can support your brain, bones, immune system, and thyroid health. This conversation will challenge so much of what you've been told and open the door to thinking about hormones in a whole new way.For full show notes, please see:  https://innatopiler.com/podcasts/connection-progesterone-estrogen-hashimotos-dr-felice-gersh-2/Get ThyroLove - the first all in one bottle multi-nutrient comprehensive formula designed specifically for those with Hashimoto's at ThyroLove.com - use code “Podcast” to get 10% off and free shipping For more information about everything Hashimoto's please visit InnaTopiler.comIf you are struggling to lose weight with Hashimoto's, Inna has a 10 day plan just for you at InnaTopiler.com/jumpstartIf you need help with fatigue or brain fog with Hashimoto's, please check out Inna's 9 Day Exhaustion Solution at innatopiler.com/energyIf you don't yet know your thyroid type, please be sure you sign up for Inna's next free training at InnaTopiler.com/zoomcall

In this episode, I dive into the complexities of autoimmunity and the gut-brain axis with Dr. Datis Kharrazian, one of the leading voices in functional medicine. What strikes me about our conversation is how he connects the dots between environment, genetics, and lifestyle, painting a clear picture of why autoimmune diseases are on the rise and why they're so difficult to treat. Dr. Kharrazian breaks down how and why the immune system malfunctions, and more importantly, how lifestyle adaptations can play a pivotal role in managing these conditions. Together, we explore the principles of functional medicine and how they reshape chronic disease care, while also looking at the latest insights into the gut microbiome, its impact on brain health, and the links to conditions like Alzheimer's and long COVID. This episode is packed with professional insights, practical takeaways, and a vision of how functional medicine can transform patient care in today's world. Key Takeaways: Autoimmunity occurs when the immune system mistakenly attacks the body's own tissues, with factors such as environmental exposure and genetic susceptibility being key contributors. Functional medicine prioritizes enhancing bodily functions rather than simply inhibiting disease symptoms, offering a promising approach for managing chronic diseases. Lifestyle factors like sleep, stress management, and exercise play a crucial role in managing autoimmune conditions and maintaining overall health. The gut-brain axis is integral to understanding and treating neurological conditions, with bidirectional communication between these systems influencing health outcomes. Precision diagnostics and individualized care models are essential for effective functional medicine practice, emphasizing the need for education in the field. Dr. Datis Kharrazian is a clinical research scientist, academic professor, and a functional medicine healthcare provider. He is an Associate Clinical Professor at Loma Linda University School of Medicine. Dr. Kharrazian earned a PhD in Health Science with concentrations in immunology and toxicology, and a Doctor of Health Science degree from Nova Southeastern University. He also holds a Master of Science degree in Human Nutrition from the University of Bridgeport, a Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Southern California University of Health Sciences, and a Master of Medical Sciences degree in Clinical Investigation from Harvard Medical School. Dr. Kharrazian completed his post-doctoral research training at Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts General Hospital. He was a researcher at Harvard Medical School for seven years. Currently, he serves as the academic director of the Kharrazian Institute and the Academy of Functional Nutrition and Lifestyle Medicine.

Many people struggle with chronic fatigue, autoimmune conditions, and exhaustion that no amount of sleep seems to cure. They've tried medications, supplements, therapy, and self-care practices, yet still find themselves needing daily naps just to function. They can't understand why their body seems to be working against them instead of healing, or why they feel so disconnected from the energy they once had. In this episode, you'll meet Kecia, whose story reveals what's possible when we finally address trauma where it lives - in the nervous system. After 30 years on medical disability and needing daily three-hour naps just to survive, Kecia was sleeping 16-18 hours daily and housebound for years. By age 25, autoimmune illness had taken her career as a respiratory therapist, her ability to hike, even basic tasks. After completing the Foundational Journey, something happened that might sound impossible - she went seven weeks without needing a single nap for the first time in decades. Her husband said she became "like the person I knew 30 years ago." This isn't about willpower or positive thinking. It's about understanding how unresolved attachment wounds show up as physical symptoms decades later, and why trauma healing requires addressing the nervous system directly. You'll hear more on: [3:30] Why Kecia never expected to live past 18 and how autoimmune disease changed everything for her by age 25 [8:00] The struggle to get medical validation and how one doctor's compassion literally changed her physiology [14:00] The shift that seemed impossible - seven weeks without daily naps after 30 years of needing them [16:00] What's actually happening in your body during chronic freeze and why extreme sleep needs make biological sense [19:00] How coming out of freeze brought back joy, energy, and the ability to experience life fully again [25:00] Why being praised for "resilience" can actually create stored trauma patterns in your body [29:00] Dr. Aimie's guidance on capacity management and energy investment for sustainable healing Whether you're personally dealing with chronic fatigue and autoimmune conditions that doctors can't fully explain, or you're a practitioner supporting clients with unexplained physical symptoms, this episode shows how addressing trauma at the nervous system level can create changes that seem impossible when we've been stuck for so long.
