You'll find some amazing brands we trust—and by checking them out, you're helping us keep the podcast going.  Today we're switching gears a bit to talk about a medication rather than a peptide — metformin. If you're someone who's interested in peptides for metabolic health or inflammation, you've probably heard metformin mentioned alongside them. It's been around for decades as a diabetes medication, but recently it's gaining attention for its potential benefits beyond blood sugar, including longevity, inflammation, and neuroprotection — even in people who don't have diabetes. Let's get into it. Metformin and Longevity Can metformin really help us live longer? One of the biggest sparks came from a 2014 study published in Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, where researchers found that diabetics on metformin actually lived longer than non-diabetics not taking the medication.  The authors suggested that metformin may offer protective benefits beyond glucose control, possibly by reducing oxidative stress and slowing cellular aging. This inspired the launch of the TAME trial—short for Targeting Aging with Metformin—which is designed to test whether metformin can delay the onset of age-related diseases like cancer, cardiovascular disease, and cognitive decline. While results are still pending, it's the first large-scale effort to study aging as a treatable condition, not just a process. Inflammation and Immunometabolism Next up: inflammation. Chronic low-grade inflammation is at the root of so many health issues—heart disease, dementia, even depression. Metformin appears to blunt systemic inflammation by activating AMPK. Think of AMPK as a metabolic master switch that lowers inflammatory signaling. A 2021 review published in Pharmacological Research found that metformin can inhibit NF-κB, a major pathway that drives inflammation. It also helped lower levels of CRP—a protein made by the liver that rises when there's inflammation from things like infection, injury, or chronic disease—and IL-6, another immune system protein commonly elevated in chronic inflammatory conditions. Because of these anti-inflammatory effects, researchers have been exploring metformin's potential in conditions beyond diabetes, including autoimmune diseases, multiple sclerosis (MS), PCOS, and even COVID—where it's been linked to lower mortality in patients with diabetes. Brain Health and Neuroprotection What about the brain? Can metformin help protect against cognitive decline? There's some promising data here too. A 2017 study in Aging Cell found that metformin improved neurogenesis in the hippocampus of aged mice—basically, helping old brains grow new neurons. In 2019 a cohort study in JAMA Network reported that people with type 2 diabetes taking metformin had a lower risk of developing dementia compared to those not taking it. Mechanisms may include reduced insulin resistance in the brain, less oxidative stress, and—again—AMPK activation, which promotes mitochondrial health and energy production. Still, human trials are mixed, and more controlled research is needed before we can call it a “smart drug.” Lower Cancer Risk So, here's an interesting one—can metformin actually lower the risk of cancer? Well, the short answer is: maybe. People with diabetes tend to have a higher risk of developing certain types of cancer, so part of metformin's benefit could just come from better managing blood sugar and insulin levels. But what's really exciting is that researchers think metformin might do even more than that. There's evidence suggesting it could have direct effects on cancer cells—like slowing down their growth or making the environment less friendly for tumors. Some studies have found lower rates of cancers like breast, colon, and prostate in people taking metformin. Now, this isn't a magic bullet or anything, but it's a promising area of research that's getting a lot of attention. So metformin might be pulling double duty: managing diabetes and potentially helping reduce cancer risk through other mechanisms we're still learning about. Metabolic Health for Non-Diabetics Now here's where it gets controversial—should healthy people without diabetes be taking metformin? Some researchers argue yes, especially for people with metabolic syndrome, prediabetes, or high inflammation. Metformin improves insulin sensitivity, reduces liver glucose production, and may even support modest weight loss. That said, there are tradeoffs. Metformin can cause stomach-related side effects (e.g., nausea, gas, heartburn, and diarrhea) and vitamin B12 deficiency (which may lead to nerve damage). It can also cause extreme fatigue.  Metformin may sometimes cause sexual side effects, like erectile dysfunction in men. Some studies suggest it might lower testosterone, which we know is important for male sexual health. But interestingly, other research points to metformin actually improving blood flow to the penis, which could help with erectile issues. So, it's a bit of a mixed picture—and it really depends on the individual. And although rare, it can cause lactic acidosis (a life threatening condition where lactic acid builds up in the blood) in older adults, people with advanced kidney disease, or those who drink excessive amounts of alcohol. So it's not a free pass.  So what are my final thoughts and who should you take metformin for longevity? Metformin isn't a one-size-fits-all solution, and it's definitely not something to start just because you heard about it on a podcast. We still need more research—especially in people without diabetes—to really understand who benefits most. But it might make sense for some people, like those with prediabetes, PCOS, metabolic syndrome, or even older adults looking to support healthy aging.  As always, it's something to talk through with your healthcare provider.  The science is exciting, but it's all about finding what makes sense for you. Thank you for listening to The Peptide Podcast. If you enjoyed the show and want to support what we do, head over to our Partners Page.

Is your inner critic running the show? What if the voice inside your head isn't even yours—but a residue of trauma, stress, or dysfunction? In this eye-opening episode of Healthy Waves, host Avik dives deep into the science behind cellular healing with Claire Martinsen, CEO of Biobloom Injectables. Claire breaks down the truth about NADH and B12—how these molecules work at the mitochondrial level to support energy, mental clarity, emotional regulation, and trauma recovery. We explore how NADH + B12 injections can outperform oral supplements, support therapy and somatic work, and offer real, bioavailable healing—not just hype. Claire shares her personal journey of transformation, including relief from ADHD symptoms, hormonal imbalances, and chronic fatigue—all by supporting her cells instead of suppressing symptoms. This isn't just about wellness trends—it's molecular repair from the ground up. Whether you're a high achiever on the edge of burnout or someone healing from trauma, this episode offers powerful, science-backed insights for real transformation. ABOUT THE GUEST:Claire Martinsen is the CEO of Biobloom Injectables, a science-driven wellness company focused on bioavailable solutions for mental clarity, energy, and healing. With a background in biology and public health, Claire bridges cutting-edge research with practical application, helping people unlock their potential—cell by cell. KEY TAKEAWAYS: NADH (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide + Hydrogen) is a stable, bioavailable form that supports cellular energy (ATP production), brain health, and DNA repair. Unlike NAD+, which needs conversion and loses potency through digestion, NADH IM injections bypass the gut and deliver 100% absorption. Combined with methylated B12, NADH boosts dopamine, serotonin, and oxygenation in the brain—enhancing focus, mood, and nervous system resilience. Claire shares how NADH helped with her ADHD, back pain, gluten intolerance, immune response, and hormonal balance—without side effects. Bioavailable supplements like NADH+B12 complement trauma therapy and somatic work by stabilizing the nervous system and accelerating healing. Biobloom Injectables is committed to accessible wellness grounded in science, with transdermal patches and sublingual formats underway. Claire's mission is rooted in loss—creating this work in honor of her best friend who died by suicide. Her goal is to make mental wellness and biological repair available to all.   CONNECT WITH THE GUEST:Claire Martinson is available on all social platforms under @wheretoclaire.

Most people think acid reflux means they have too much stomach acid — but the opposite is usually true. In this episode, I dive into why optimal stomach acid (pH 1.5–3) is the “Goldilocks zone” for digestion, nutrient absorption, and microbial defense — and what happens when it's too low. We also explore H. pylori, a common stomach bacteria that can disrupt acid production, trigger gut inflammation, and set off a cascade of symptoms like bloating, reflux, nutrient deficiencies, and even mood shifts.

On Episode #175 of the PricePlow Podcast, we sit down with Juan Benítez-García, Chief Sales Officer, and Sini Möttönen, Senior Application Scientist from Solar Foods at IFT First 2025 in Chicago. Broadcasting from the Sensapure Flavors booth, we explore the revolutionary Solein® protein that's literally made "out of thin air". This isn't your typical alternative protein story. Solar Foods has achieved what seemed impossible: creating complete, high-quality protein without farms, animals, or even plants. Using ancient Finnish microbes and renewable electricity, they've developed a process that bypasses photosynthesis entirely, producing protein that's 80% pure with a complete amino acid profile including 20% BCAAs. The result is a golden-colored powder with exceptional nutritional density, including naturally high levels of iron and vitamin B12. Our conversation reveals how biomass fermentation differs from precision fermentation, why Solein® tastes creamy with subtle nutty notes, and how this technology earned NASA recognition for feeding astronauts on Mars missions. From ice cream to protein bars, Juan and Sini demonstrate the versatility of this groundbreaking ingredient while explaining why it represents a fundamental shift toward sustainable, location-independent protein production. https://blog.priceplow.com/podcast/solar-foods-solein-175 Video: Solar Foods Brings Protein "Out of Thin Air" to IFT First 2025 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZQ3hlgn0cZI Detailed Show Notes: The Science and Future of Air-Based Protein (0:00) – Introductions: Meeting the Solar Foods Team at IFT First (9:00) – The Science Behind Solein®: How Protein Gets Made from Air (13:00) – Biomass vs. Precision Fermentation: Understanding the Key Difference (18:00) – Nutritional Profile: Why 80% Protein Changes Everything (29:00) – Flavor Innovation: Partnering with Sensapure for Taste Excellence (34:00) – Versatile Applications: From Ready-to-Mix to Ice Cream (43:00) – Protein Bar Innovation: Soft Texture That Lasts (52:00) – Space Applications: NASA Recognition and Mars Mission Potential (1:00:00) – Global Flavors and Ice Cream Success (1:04:00) – Market Timeline and Consumer Availability (1:07:00) – Contact Information and Industry Connections Where to Follow Solar Foods and Connect with the Team Juan Benítez-García: LinkedIn Sini Möttönen: LinkedIn Solar Foods: Company Website LinkedIn Learn more about Solein® on PricePlow Sign up for PricePlow's Solar Foods news alerts Thank you to Juan and Sini for sharing the incredible story of Solein® and demonstrating how ancient Finnish microbes, renewable electricity, and innovative engineering are revolutionizing protein production. ...

If you've ever felt like your head was stuck in a cloud, your thoughts were moving in slow motion, or you walk into a room and forget why you're there, you're not alone. Brain fog is real—and it can seriously mess with your productivity, your mood, and even your confidence. Today we're going to talk about what brain fog actually is, what causes it, as well as peptides and natural strategies you can use to help. Let's get into it. What is Brain Fog? “Brain fog” isn't a medical term, but it is a very real experience. It describes a cluster of symptoms—like forgetfulness, poor concentration, mental fatigue, and lack of clarity. Some people say they feel like they're walking through mud mentally. Others describe it as feeling “off” or like their brain is buffering. Now, this isn't the same as full-blown cognitive impairment or dementia—it's more like your brain is just tired or underperforming. Common Causes of Brain Fog So, what's really behind that cloudy-headed feeling we call brain fog? It turns out, there are several common culprits—and a lot of them have to do with how your body and brain are (or aren't) being supported. First up, poor sleep. Honestly, this one's a biggie. Sleep is when your brain takes out the trash—literally clearing out toxins, locking in memories, and resetting for the day ahead. Without enough deep, restful sleep, you're basically trying to function on a low battery. That grogginess, forgetfulness, or lack of focus? All classic signs your brain didn't get the cleanup it needed. Then there's chronic stress. When you're constantly juggling demands and pressures, your body stays in “fight-or-flight” mode, pumping out cortisol. In the short term, that's fine. But when cortisol stays high for too long, it can actually shrink the hippocampus—the part of your brain responsible for memory and focus. Not ideal. Inflammation is another sneaky cause. When you're eating a lot of processed foods, sugar, or unhealthy fats—or dealing with gut imbalances—it can spark low-grade inflammation that messes with how your brain cells communicate. That can slow you down mentally, make it harder to focus, and leave you feeling mentally sluggish. Let's not forget about blood sugar swings. If your day looks like coffee and a muffin, then nothing until a big lunch, then a sugary snack mid-afternoon…your blood sugar is on a rollercoaster. And your brain feels it. That foggy, irritable crash? Yeah, that's part of the ride. Hormonal changes can also play a big role—especially during menopause, andropause, thyroid imbalances, or even monthly cycle shifts. Hormones like estrogen, testosterone, and thyroid hormones all impact brain chemistry, and when they fluctuate, your concentration, energy, and memory can take a hit. We also have nutrient deficiencies to consider. Your brain needs specific nutrients to thrive—things like B12, magnesium, omega-3s, and vitamin D. If you're low in any of these (which is more common than you'd think), it can show up as brain fog, low mood, or trouble focusing. And finally, there's post-viral fatigue. If you've had something like COVID or the flu recently, you might notice it takes a while to bounce back mentally. That's because your immune system may still be in overdrive, and your brain's trying to recover right along with the rest of you. Oh—and a quick shoutout to medications and alcohol. Some meds (like antihistamines, sleep aids, or anti-anxiety drugs) can definitely slow your thinking. And even moderate alcohol, especially over time, messes with memory and focus—sometimes even the next day. So if your brain's been feeling a little off lately, it might be worth looking at one—or a few—of these areas to start clearing the fog. Peptides That Help Brain Fog If you've been struggling with long-term brain fog, there are a few peptides that might be worth exploring.  Semax and Selank —both originally developed in Russia—are known for their brain-boosting benefits. Semax supports memory, focus, and stress resilience, while Selank works more on the anxiety and mood side by targeting the GABA system, without causing drowsiness.  Then there's Dihexa, a powerful nootropic that helps increase BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor), which plays a key role in growing and strengthening brain cell connections.  Cerebrolysin is another option—it's a more complex peptide that's often used in cases of brain injury or cognitive decline, though it can be harder to get.  And finally, BPC-157, best known for healing gut and muscle tissue, also has some neuroprotective effects and might support brain health by calming systemic inflammation. Some Natural Strategies to Clear Brain Fog Peptides are great, but let's not forget the basics or more natural strategies we can use that often make the biggest difference. Some natural ways to fight brain fog: Prioritize sleep – 7 to 9 hours. No phone in bed. Create a wind-down routine. Eat to balance blood sugar – Think protein and healthy fats with every meal, and cut back on refined carbs. Also pay attention to the order in which you eat specific foods to help prevent blood sugar spikes. For example, start your meal with vegetables, eat proteins and fats next, and end your meal with carbohydrates.  Hydrate – Dehydration can make your brain feel sluggish. Try to drink about half your body weight in ounces of water each day. So if you weigh 160 pounds, aim for around 80 ounces. Move your body – Even 20 minutes of walking a day improves oxygen flow to the brain. Get sunlight – Morning light boosts serotonin and helps regulate your sleep-wake cycle. Try brain-boosting supplements: Omega-3s for anti-inflammatory support Magnesium for calm and clarity L-theanine and rhodiola for focus and resilience And Lion's Mane mushroom—a favorite for memory and nerve growth And don't underestimate meditation, cold exposure, or even a good laugh. These shift your nervous system and create space for clarity. Final Thoughts So to sum it up—brain fog isn't “just in your head.” It's your body's way of waving a red flag. Whether it's a lifestyle imbalance, inflammation, or hormonal shifts, your brain is asking for support. Start with the foundations—sleep, food, hydration, movement. Then, if you want to level up, explore peptides and supplements with a knowledgeable provider. Your brain wants to work for you. Sometimes it just needs a little help.

Send us a textDr. Bobby examines how legitimate medical treatments often get overextended into unproven health claims—why it happens, why it matters, and how to spot it.Building on last episode's theme of health hype, this installment digs into examples where therapies with real medical uses (like vitamin C, B12, hyperbaric oxygen, and stem cell therapy) are being promoted far beyond what the evidence supports. Dr. Bobby unpacks the flawed logic of “theory plus anecdote plus expert equals evidence” and explains why even well-intentioned health advice can go too far when it skips the evidence.You'll hear about the historical rise and modern misuse of vitamin C—from preventing scurvy to overstated claims of immune boosting. The episode dives into vitamin B12, which has real benefits for those with deficiencies but is often marketed as a cure-all without support. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy, which is FDA-approved for very specific conditions like carbon monoxide poisoning and diabetic ulcers, is another example—now advertised for fatigue, brain fog, and aging without strong data to back it. And stem cell therapy, which truly helps in leukemia and bone marrow failure, is being extended to treat everything from dementia to heart disease—despite the lack of proven efficacy in these areas.Dr. Bobby then addresses why this happens: patient desperation, the placebo effect, and the sheer momentum of what has been called “Big Wellness”—an industry now worth hundreds of billions. Social media only amplifies these trends, creating fear of missing out and distorting what counts as credible.To help listeners navigate this landscape, Dr. Bobby shares questions to ask when encountering bold health claims. Has the treatment been proven in your condition? Are there peer-reviewed studies in humans? What are the risks and costs—not just financially, but in delaying evidence-based care? Are the promoters benefiting from those beliefs?He encourages all of us to remain open-minded skeptics: curious, informed, and protective of both our health and our wallets.Takeaways: Ask whether the health claim is backed by solid evidence, not just theory and anecdote. Don't assume treatments with real uses are effective for everything they're marketed for. Before trying the latest therapy, ask: Is this proven for my condition, and what's the real cost?

Heard you've got MTHFR? Don't panic. This episode breaks down what the MTHFR gene mutation really means (and what it doesn't). We cover methylation, detox, B vitamins (especially methylated forms like methylfolate and methyl B12), homocysteine, and functional bloodwork. We explain why MTHFR isn't a diagnosis, why your protocol should start with the gut and minerals, and what to do if your practitioner threw a bunch of supplements at you without a plan. You'll walk away understanding how to support your body with the right order of operations, proper cofactors, and personalized labs. *** Get Your Tickets Now: Use code REVIVAL for $100 discount ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FitMom | UNSTUCK: The Women's Health & Hormone Summit⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ *** Gut & Hormones all messed up? ⁠⁠⁠⁠➡️ Take the quiz⁠⁠⁠⁠ ***

In this episode, I sat down with the late Dr. John McDougall, a board-certified internist, nutritional expert, and pioneer of the starch-based diet, to talk about the incredible healing power of food. With over 50 years of experience treating chronic disease through nutrition, Dr. McDougall has helped thousands of people reverse conditions like heart disease, diabetes, obesity, and even autoimmune disorders — simply by changing what they eat. We dive into the history, science, and simplicity of his starch-based approach to eating, which has been followed by healthy populations for millennia. He shares why protein and oil are overrated and even harmful, how the Western diet has made people sick for centuries, and why the future of our planet depends on what we put on our plates. This conversation is a wake-up call to the health and environmental costs of our modern diet — and a reminder that the solution is simpler (and more delicious) than most realize. What You'll Learn in This Episode: ✅ Why starch (rice, potatoes, corn, beans) is the ideal human food ✅ The truth about protein, oil, and high-protein diets ✅ How the Western diet has caused disease for thousands of years ✅ The environmental destruction of animal agriculture ✅ Why supplements (other than B12) aren't necessary ✅ The moral and societal implications of feeding our children harmful diets ✅ Simple steps you can take today to reverse disease and feel your best Resources & Links Mentioned:

In this episode, we detail connections between H. pylori and hypochlorhydria, while highlighting possible downstream effects on nutrient absorption. We examine how reduced gastric acidity can impair the liberation and assimilation of certain micronutrients, including iron, calcium, vitamin B12, and more; and we further discuss the impact of low stomach acid upon downstream digestive enzyme activation and gut microbial balance. The discussion also highlights the role of compromised gastric acidity in conditions such as small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO).Topics:1. Hypochlorhydria - Low stomach acid.- Aging, autoimmune gastritis, chronic PPI use, H. pylori infection.2. H. pylori - Common gram-negative bacterium that colonizes the stomach lining.- Symptoms.- Produces urease.- Ammonia neutralizes acid, creating a protective microenvironment.- Additional virulence factors and ability to form biofilms contribute to persistence.3. Gastric Anatomy & Layers- The stomach: hollow, muscular organ for mechanical and chemical digestion.- Regions: Cardia, fundus, body, and pylorus.- Layers: Mucosa, Submucosa, Muscularis externa, Serosa4. Mucosal Layer - Surface mucous cells secrete a thick bicarbonate-rich, protective mucus.- Gastric pits lead to gastric glands, which contain specialized secretory cells.5. Specialized Gastric Cells- Parietal Cells: Secrete hydrochloric acid (HCl) and intrinsic factor (IF).- Chief Cells: Secrete pepsinogen (converted to pepsin by HCl) and gastric lipase.- Role of HCl: Activates pepsin, denatures proteins, and contributes to nutrient absorption.- Intrinsic factor and vitamin B12 absorption.6. Vitamin B12 Absorption- Essential for DNA synthesis, RBC formation, neurological function.- Released from food proteins by gastric acid and pepsin.- Impaired absorption.7. Role of Gastric Acid in Broader Micronutrient Absorption- Absorption of minerals.- Soluble, ionized state.- Iron: HCl aids in preventing insoluble precipitates and supports iron absorption.8. Protective Role of Gastric Acid- Acts as a line of defense against ingested pathogens.- Maintains low microbial diversity in the stomach.- Low HCl and SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth).9.

Episode 198: Fatigue.  Future doctors Redden and Ibrahim discuss with Dr. Arreaza the different causes of fatigue, including physical and mental illnesses. Dr. Arreaza describes the steps to evaluate fatigue. Some common misconceptions are explained, such as vitamin D deficiency and “chronic Lyme disease”. Written by Michael Ibrahim, MSIV, and Jordan Redden, MSIV, Ross University School of Medicine. Edits and comments by Hector Arreaza, MDYou are listening to Rio Bravo qWeek Podcast, your weekly dose of knowledge brought to you by the Rio Bravo Family Medicine Residency Program from Bakersfield, California, a UCLA-affiliated program sponsored by Clinica Sierra Vista, Let Us Be Your Healthcare Home. This podcast was created for educational purposes only. Visit your primary care provider for additional medical advice.Dr. Arreaza: Today is a great day to talk about fatigue. It is one of the most common and most complex complaints we see in primary care. It involves physical, mental, and emotional health. So today, we're walking through a case, breaking down causes, red flags, and how to work it up without ordering the entire lab catalog.Michael:Case: This is a 34-year-old female who comes in saying, "I've been feeling drained for the past 3 months." She says she's been sleeping 8 hours a night but still wakes up tired. No recent illnesses, no weight loss, fever, or night sweats. She denies depression or anxiety but does report a lot of work stress and taking care of her two little ones at home. She drinks 2 cups of coffee a day, doesn't drink alcohol, and doesn't use drugs. No medications, just a multivitamin. Regular menstrual cycles—but she's noticed they've been heavier recently.Jordan:Fatigue is a persistent sense of exhaustion that isn't relieved by rest. It's different from sleepiness or muscle weakness.Classification based on timeline:    •   Acute fatigue: less than 1 month    •   Subacute: 1 to 6 months    •   Chronic: more than 6 monthsThis patient's case is subacute—going on 3 months now.Dr. Arreaza:And we can think about fatigue in types:    •   Physical fatigue: like muscle tiredness after activity    •   Mental fatigue: trouble concentrating or thinking clearly (physical + mental when you are a medical student or resident)    •    Pathological fatigue: which isn't proportional to effort and doesn't get better with restAnd of course, there's chronic fatigue syndrome, also called myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS), which is a diagnosis of exclusion after 6 months of disabling fatigue with other symptoms.Michael:The differential is massive. So, we can also group it by systems.Jordan:Let's run through the big ones.Endocrine / Metabolic Causes    • Hypothyroidism: A classic cause of fatigue. Often associated with cold intolerance, weight gain, dry skin, and constipation. May be subtle and underdiagnosed, especially in women.    • Diabetes Mellitus: Both hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia can cause fatigue. Look for polyuria, polydipsia, weight loss, or blurry vision in undiagnosed diabetes.    • Adrenal Insufficiency: Think of this when fatigue is paired with hypotension, weight loss, salt craving, or hyperpigmentation. Can be primary (Addison's) or secondary (e.g., due to long-term steroid use).Michael: Hematologic Causes    • Anemia (especially iron deficiency): Very common, especially in menstruating women. Look for fatigue with pallor, shortness of breath on exertion, and sometimes pica (craving non-food items).     • Vitamin B12 or Folate Deficiency: B12 deficiency may present with fatigue plus neurologic symptoms like numbness, tingling, or gait issues. Folate deficiency tends to present with megaloblastic anemia and fatigue.    • Anemia of Chronic Disease: Seen in patients with chronic inflammatory conditions like RA, infections, or CKD. Typically mild, normocytic, and improves when the underlying disease is treated.Michael: Psychiatric Causes    • Depression: A major driver of fatigue, often underreported. May include anhedonia, sleep disturbance, appetite changes, or guilt. Sometimes presents with only somatic complaints.    • Anxiety Disorders: Mental fatigue, poor sleep quality, and hypervigilance can leave patients feeling constantly drained.    • Burnout Syndrome: Especially common in caregivers, healthcare workers, and educators. Emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and reduced personal accomplishment are key features.Jordan: Infectious Causes    • Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV):Mononucleosis is a well-known cause of fatigue, sometimes lasting weeks. May also have sore throat, lymphadenopathy, and splenomegaly.    • HIV:Consider it in high-risk individuals. Fatigue can be an early sign, along with weight loss, recurrent infections, or night sweats.    • Hepatitis (B or C):Can present with chronic fatigue, especially if liver enzymes are elevated. Screen at-risk individuals.    • Post-viral Syndromes / Long COVID:Fatigue that lingers for weeks or months after viral infection. Often, it includes brain fog, muscle aches, and post-exertional malaise.Important: Chronic Lyme disease is a controversial term without a consistent clinical definition and is often used to describe patients with persistent, nonspecific symptoms not supported by objective evidence of Lyme infection. Leading medical organizations reject the term and instead recognize "post-treatment Lyme disease syndrome" (PTLDS) for persistent symptoms following confirmed, treated Lyme disease, emphasizing that prolonged antibiotic therapy is not effective. Research shows no benefit—and potential harm—from extended antibiotic use, and patients with unexplained chronic symptoms should be thoroughly evaluated for other possible diagnoses.Michael: Cardiopulmonary Causes    •   Congestive Heart Failure (CHF): Fatigue from poor perfusion and low cardiac output. Often comes with dyspnea on exertion, edema, and orthopnea.    •   Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD): Look for a smoking history, chronic cough, and fatigue from hypoxia or the work of breathing.    •   Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA): Daytime fatigue despite adequate hours of sleep. Patients may snore, gasp, or report morning headaches. High suspicion in obese or hypertensive patients.Jordan:Autoimmune / Inflammatory Causes    •   Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE): Fatigue is often an early symptom. May also see rash, arthritis, photosensitivity, or renal involvement.    •   Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA): Fatigue from systemic inflammation. Morning stiffness, joint pain, and elevated inflammatory markers point to RA.    •   Fibromyalgia: A chronic pain syndrome with widespread tenderness, fatigue, nonrestorative sleep, and sometimes cognitive complaints ("fibro fog").Cancer / Malignancy    •   Leukemia, lymphoma, or solid tumors: Fatigue can be the first symptom, often accompanied by weight loss, night sweats, or unexplained fevers. Consider when no other cause is evident.Michael:Medications:Common culprits include:    ◦   Beta-blockers: Can slow heart rate too much.    ◦   Antihistamines: Sedating H1 blockers like diphenhydramine.    ◦   Sedatives or sleep aids: Can cause grogginess and daytime sedation.    •   Substance Withdrawal: Fatigue can be seen in withdrawal from alcohol, opioids, or stimulants. Caffeine withdrawal, though mild, can also contribute.Dr. Arreaza:Whenever we evaluate fatigue, we need to keep an eye out for red flags. These should raise suspicion for something more serious:    •   Unintentional weight loss    •   Night sweats    •   Persistent fever    •   Neurologic symptoms    •   Lymphadenopathy    •   Jaundice    •   Palpitations or chest painThis patient doesn't have these—but that doesn't mean we stop here.Dr. Arreaza:Those are a lot of causes, we can evaluate fatigue following 7 steps:Characterize the fatigue.Look for organic illness.Evaluate medications and substances.Perform psychiatric screening.Ask questions about quantity and quality of sleep.Physical examination.Undertake investigations.So, students, do we send the whole lab panel?Michael:Not necessarily. Labs should be guided by history and physical. But here's a good initial panel:    •   CBC: To check for anemia or infection    • TSH: Screen for hypothyroidism    • CMP: Look at electrolytes, kidney, and liver function    • Ferritin and iron studies    • B12, folate    • ESR/CRP for inflammation (not specific)    • HbA1c if diabetes is on the radarJordan:And if needed, consider:    • HIV, EBV, hepatitis panel    • ANA, RF    • Cortisol or ACTH stimulation testImaging? Now that's rare—unless there are specific signs. Like chest X-ray for possible cancer or TB, or sleep study if you suspect OSA.Dr. Arreaza:Unaddressed fatigue isn't just inconvenient. It can impact on quality of life, affect job performance, lead to mood disorders, delay diagnosis of serious illness, increase risk of accidents—especially driving. So, don't ignore your patients with fatigue!Jordan:And some people—like women, caregivers, or shift workers—are especially at risk.Michael:The cornerstone of treatment is addressing the underlying cause.Jordan:If it's iron-deficiency anemia—treat it. If it's depression—get mental health involved. But there's also: Lifestyle Support: Better sleep hygiene, light physical activity, mindfulness or CBT for stress, balanced nutrition—especially iron and protein, limit caffeine and alcoholDr. Arreaza:Sometimes medications help—but rarely. And for chronic fatigue syndrome, the current best strategies are graded exercise therapy and CBT, along with managing specific symptoms. Beta-alanine has potential to modestly improve muscular endurance and reduce fatigue in older adults, but more high-quality research is needed.SSRI: fluoxetine and sertraline. Iron supplements: Even without anemia, but low ferritin [Anecdote about low ferritin patient]Jordan:This case reminds us to take fatigue seriously. In her case, it may be multifactorial—work stress, caregiving burden, and possibly iron-deficiency anemia. So, how would we wrap up this conversation, Michael?Michael:We don't need to order everything under the sun. A focused history and exam, targeted labs, and being alert to red flags can guide us.Jordan:And don't forget the basics—sleep, stress, and nutrition. These are just as powerful as any prescription.Dr. Arreaza:We hope today's episode on fatigue has given you a clear framework and some practical tips. If you enjoyed this episode, share it and subscribe for more evidence-based medicine!Jordan:Take care—and get some rest~___________________________Even without trying, every night you go to bed a little wiser. Thanks for listening to Rio Bravo qWeek Podcast.

Story at-a-glance Vitamin D deficiency is strongly linked to nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), a growing metabolic disorder that often develops silently until serious damage occurs Research shows vitamin D controls liver function at the genetic level, activating fat-burning genes while suppressing fat storage, making it key for preventing and reversing liver damage Vitamin D supplementation in studies significantly decreased liver fat, reduced inflammation and restored proper mitochondrial structure and function, especially in older subjects Other essential nutrients for liver health include vitamins E, B12 and folate, which work together to regulate fat metabolism, reduce inflammation and support detoxification Practical solutions include eliminating vegetable oils, which are high in linoleic acid, strategic sun exposure, testing your vitamin D levels (aiming for 60 to 80 ng/mL) and combining vitamin D3 with magnesium and K2 when supplementing

Episode 3044: Dr. Neal Malik explains how pernicious anemia, an autoimmune condition, prevents proper absorption of vitamin B12, leading to serious health risks if untreated. While high-dose oral supplements may help in certain cases, he emphasizes that B12 injections are typically the most reliable way to manage the condition and protect red blood cell and nerve health. Quotes to ponder: "Pernicious anemia is actually a type of autoimmune condition." "Most studies do find that injections are more effective." "Unfortunately, there is no cure for pernicious anemia, but it can be well-managed with B12 supplements." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Did you know that low stomach acid could be silently harming your bones? In this episode, I'm joined by Andrea Nakayama, a functional medicine nutritionist, who dives deep into the surprising connection between stomach acid and osteoporosis. We discuss why so many people with osteoporosis have low stomach acid and don't even know it, and how proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), commonly used to treat heartburn, may be making the problem worse. Andrea explains how stomach acid plays a vital role in absorbing key nutrients essential for bone health, such as calcium, magnesium, and vitamin B12, and how a lack of stomach acid can prevent the body from fully utilizing these nutrients. She also shares practical tips on how to increase stomach acid naturally and how to address heartburn without relying on harmful medications. If you're struggling with bone health or heartburn, this episode offers valuable insights into supporting your digestion and bone strength. “I always wanna remind people: Do what you can do to support your body, really take care of yourself first, and then raise your hand when you need extra help, when you can't figure it out." ~ Andrea Nakayama, FNLP MSN CNC CNE CHHC   In this episode: - [02:23] - The reason we're discussing stomach acid  - [06:12] - Low stomach acid and osteoporosis connection - [08:18] - Why it's important to have enough stomach acid - [15:44] - Heartburn: a symptom of too little stomach acid - [18:50] - Essential nutrients that impact stomach acid levels - [25:26] - PPIs: How they reduce stomach acid and increase bone loss - [27:40] - Tips for tracking issues and lifestyle strategies to aid digestion - [36:00] - Long-term effects of low stomach acid on health   Resources mentioned - Andrea's contact information - https://www.andreanakayama.com/ and https://www.fxnutrition.com/ - Osteoporosis Exercises Handout - tinyurl.com/osteoporosisexercises   More about Margie - Website - https://margiebissinger.com/  - Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/p/Margie-Bissinger-MS-PT-CHC-100063542905332/  - Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/margiebissinger/?hl=en    DISCLAIMER – The information presented on this podcast should not be construed as medical advice.

Episode 2665: Vinnie Tortorich and Chris Shaffer discuss an intro to Vitamins 101, and the what and whys of taking supplements. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/07/vitamins-101-episode-2665 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS YOU CAN WATCH ALL THE PODCAST EPISODES ON YOUTUBE -  All the Feels Humans have an emotional recall with music and food. (2:00) An example is pumpkin spice around Thanksgiving. It can work in reverse, too: people can have an aversion to junk food after being NSNG® for a while. They discuss other methods that are used to enable or modify behavior, from marketing tactics to “people movers” in Vegas. Chris doesn't miss air conditioning since he's been living out of the country. (12:00) They switch to discussing the importance of getting a proper vitamin intake. Vitamins 101 Why electrolytes? Almost everyone is at some level of hydration. (16:00) But there is such a thing as over-hydration, which can cause hyponatremia, or low sodium levels in the blood. (18:00) So many people are afraid of salt, but they don't necessarily need to be. (22:00) Salt is needed by the body as part of its functioning. Sweating, even only small amounts, and exhaling cause you to lose electrolytes. (25:00) You should take them, especially if you are active. Multi-vitamins: Do you really need them? Yes, it's difficult to get a good range of vitamins from food only—it's a daily insurance plan. Vinnie shares why he has a separate B12 in addition to B vitamins in the multivitamin. (37:00) Some brands don't break down in your stomach properly due to some of the ingredients. (44:00) Other brands often use the synthetic, or non-absorbable, versions of vitamins. (46:00) Magnesium Most people are deficient in magnesium. It can help with how you feel and how you sleep. (47:30) Certain varieties of magnesium can cause a laxative effect if you consume too much. Pure Vitamin Club uses a broader spectrum of magnesium.

If you ordered a steak at a restaurant are you essentially ordering a heart attack or a nutrient-rich whole food?Few foods spark more debate than red meat. It's been blamed for heart disease, cancer and diabetes, but some people praise it for being high in iron, zinc, vitamin B12 and quality protein. So, if you add red meat to your plate is it helpful or harmful?Whether you eat meat or avoid it, I think you'll find today's conversation cuts through the noise of social media and clears up a lot of confusion in the nutrition space. I wanted to disentangle the obvious issues surrounding environmental concerns of eating animal products from today's discussion, and simply talk through the data as we have it. It's given me a lot to think about when it comes to recommendations for people, as well as how concerned I would be about red meat consumption overall.Today we're chatting with researcher and academic Dr. Kevin Maki, PhD, who specialises in clinical studies on nutrition, metabolism, and chronic disease risk factors. He's also an Adjunct Professor at Indiana University School of Public Health, a Master and Past President of the National Lipid Association, and a Fellow of the American Heart Association and The Obesity Society. Dr. Maki has participated in over 300 clinical trials and published more than 250 scientific papers, books and book chapters.You're going to learn about:Whether red meat is actually unhealthier than poultryWhat red meat really does to your cholesterol, your blood pressure and your long-term health riskWhether red meat is a source of unhealthy fatsTypes of red meat and which ones are less healthy than othersHow much red meat you can safely consumeWe also talk about seed oils, plus high protein diets and their relationship to kidney disease, longevity and diabetes risk.The 4 big takeaways I got from this episode were:Moderate amounts (50g per day) of unprocessed lean red meat in the diet is fineDiet quality and the addition of whole unprocessed foods is more importantHigh Protein is very important in middle aged and older adultsBeware of the 4 white poisons: Sugar, Salt, Saturated Fat and refined Starches
