Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows!   This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track!   Check out today's questions:    Lauren: Hi Dr Cabral, I want to start by thanking you for all you do! I love listening to your podcasts and have learned so much. I had surgery 15 years ago to fix a labrum tear and within the last year I started experiencing pain again. I had a scope done and found out the suture rubbed the cartilage off my shoulder joint (this probably isn't the correct medical terminology) and now I'm experiencing bone-on-bone pain. I was told there wasn't anything I could do unless I replaced my shoulder. I'm working on fixing my gut and will then do a liver detox. Other than working on inflammation, what else can you recommend?                                                                                                                                                         Ann: quick question - what are your thoughts on banding internal hemroids? I recently had a colonoscopy for gut issues and in their report mentioned the hemroids i knew I had but also that they band them at their clinic. I never heard of this - I'd love to get rid of them as they are uncomfortable and messy. They say it's uninvasive and low risk but I don't always trust what the medical field has to say - just wondering what your thoughts are. Thank you for your time! :) and for all the help you give your followers.                                                                                                                                                            Audrey: Hi Dr Cabral, I know to get adequate morning sunlight I shouldn't be wearing glasses, but what about contacts? Am I still getting the healthy benefits of sunlight with wearing contact lenses? Thanks so much                                                   Anonymous: I was diagnosed with Barrett's Esophagus a year ago after getting an EDG through my GI doctor. He told me I'd need to be on PPIs for the rest of my life. This terrifies me...but I've tried to come off of them before and it's really uncomfortable. I generally understand how PPIs work and now acid will flood the body when you come off of them, and that it takes time but I've tried and can't make it past several weeks...what would you recommend?                                               Bettina: Hello Dr. Cabral, I'm curious to know your thoughts on this product. Brottrunk, a trusted German product for 36 years, is made from 100% organic, freshly baked sourdough bread (spring water, whole grain bread (WHOLE RYE FLOUR, water, WHOLE WHEAT FLOUR, natural sourdough (WHOLE RYE FLOUR, water), salt, WHOLE OAT FLOUR)). The bread is sliced, soaked in spring water, and fermented for six months. This process produces lactic acid and beneficial lactic acid bacteria, creating a drink rich in enzymes, vitamin B12, minerals, and amino acids. Brottrunk supposedly supports a normal immune system and energy metabolism, and helps reduce tiredness and fatigue. It may also have cleansing, detoxifying, and antifungal effects, making it an excellent probiotic supplement for digestion.         Thank you for tuning into today's Cabral HouseCall and be sure to check back tomorrow where we answer more of our community's questions!    - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/3564 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?

It was a bad showing for Republicans in last night's elections. Democrats had a full sweepin Virginia as Abigail Spanberger won the gubernatorial election, bringing Jay Jones as Attorney General and Ghazala Hashmi as Virginia's Lieutenant Governor. Democrat Mikie Sherrill won in New Jersey and Socialist Zohran Mamdani is now Mayor-elect in New York City. At day 36, we are now in the longest government shutdown in history as President Trump urges Republicans to use the 'nuclear' option. Mark Mitchell is on today's show to unpack the undertones of American society and what happened at the ballot box. As the Republican party frays over personalities like Nick Fuentes, the Democrats have unified in their messaging and assemblance. While their policies have created a situation like New York, while 64% percent foreign-born New Yorkers voted for Mamdani, what lies beneath is much more frightening. While Capitalism has created the richest nation in history, it has also created tremendous wealth disparities and no one feels this more than Gen-Z. Zoomers that voted for Donald Trump were only spilt 44% - 43% on Socialism. Gen-z sees an unaffordable future, a battle of the sexes, and high incidents of mental health. They look at a system that has failed them and have a 'burn it all down' attitude. Democratic-Socialism is appealing to younger voters and Zohran Mamdani is the embodiment of this. Therefore, it is up to Republicans to coalesce with substantive messaging and strong leadership that can carry us into the future.

For Episode #188 of the PricePlow Podcast, we welcome Edwin Gonzalez, Functional Health Sales Manager at Health Tech Bio Actives (HTBA), alongside Michael Alfaro from Master Foods Lab. This episode marks a milestone collaboration: putting cutting-edge vitamin B12 science into functional foods that consumers can actually feel working. Edwin introduces MecobalActive, HTBA's ultra-pure, optimized methylcobalamin ingredient that's redefining what B12 supplementation can do. Traditionally, the industry positioned B12 as a deficiency vitamin for tired, anemic, or sluggish individuals. HTBA is changing that narrative completely. New clinical research demonstrates that just three days of MecobalActive supplementation significantly improved both physical power output and cognitive reaction time in healthy, well-trained athletes without B12 deficiency. This isn't about correcting what's broken, it's about optimizing what already works. The conversation explores HTBA's nearly 50-year European heritage, their unique position as the only EU manufacturer of all active B12 forms, and the proprietary green chemistry process that yields MecobalActive's exceptional purity and stability. Michael walks through the technical challenges of incorporating functional ingredients into Skinny Bite cakes (showcased at SupplySide Global 2025), revealing the complex interplay between formulation science, manufacturing constraints, and innovative problem-solving. From raspberry-colored B12 filling to protected cake layers to the partnership model driving functional food innovation, this episode delivers both scientific depth and practical application insights. https://blog.priceplow.com/podcast/vitamin-b12-htba-mecobalactive-188 Video: Redefining B12 with HTBA's Edwin Gonzalez and Master Foods Lab's Michael Alfaro https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KGqZm9Q5bkw Detailed Show Notes: MecobalActive B12 Takeover (0:00) – Welcome Back: A Dive Into Functional Foods (2:00) – Redefining B12: From Deficiency to Performance Enhancement (4:45) – Creating Functional Foods: The Clear Can Problem (7:15) – The Formulation Challenge: Making Actives Work in Real Food (11:00) – HTBA's European Heritage and Manufacturing Excellence (14:30) – Green Chemistry: Manufacturing B12 Without Toxic Reagents (16:45) – Light Sensitivity and Creative Product Applications (19:00) – Redefining B12 Like Creatine Was Redefined (22:00) – The Clinical Study: Triple-Blind Crossover in Healthy Athletes (26:45) – The Results: 4% Power, 6% Fatigue Resistance, 5% Cognition (31:00) – Structure/Function Claims and Market Applications (35:45) – Color-Driven Innovation and Future Applications (37:00) – The Chocolate Coating: Formulation Within Constraints (39:00) – Manufacturing Mastery: Solving the Protein Cake Challenge (41:00) – The Partnership Model: When Ingredient Suppliers Become Collaborators (42:00) – The Pressure Cooker: Building Brands in Real Time (44:00) – Closing and Where to Find Edwin, HTBA, and Michael Where to Find HTBA, MecobalActive, and Master Foods Lab HTBA and MecobalActive: MecobalActive: Healt...

In this hol+ episode, Dr. Taz sits down with Dr. James Greenblatt, a pioneer of integrative and nutritional psychiatry, to rethink how we approach depression, anxiety, ADHD, and eating disorders through labs, nutrients, hormones, and personalized care.Together, they unpack why so much suffering persists despite more medications, how root cause testing changes outcomes, and why simple shifts like correcting vitamin D, B12, iron, thyroid, zinc, and omega 3 can transform mood and resilience. They also explore nutrigenomics for precision dosing, the real limits of 10 minute telehealth med checks, and where tools like ketamine, psychedelics, and lithium orotate fit only after foundations are in place.From practical lab targets and cost effective protocols to the crossroads of food, sleep, screens, and ADHD, this conversation invites us to see mental health not as a diagnosis to medicate, but as a system to understand and support.Dr. Taz and Dr. Greenblatt discuss:The gap between symptom focused care and root cause testingKey labs for mood, vitamin D, B12, iron, thyroid, hormonesWhy micronutrients come first for eating disordersMTHFR, methylfolate, glutathione, and antidepressant responseNutrigenomics for personalized vitamin and mineral dosingThe risks of quick med stacking and 10 minute checksWhere ketamine, psychedelics, and lithium orotate may help, and when they do notADHD, ultra processed foods, sugary drinks, sleep, and screen timeAbout Dr. James Greenblatt, MDDr. James Greenblatt, MD is a board certified psychiatrist and a pioneer of integrative and nutritional psychiatry.

Most people are turned off by organ meats, but if they weren't so good for you, Dr. Carling wouldn't recommend them. In this episode, Dr. Holly Carling and Alicia share why traditional cultures prized foods like liver, bone marrow, fish heads and roe, and bone broth, and how these time-tested foods can rebuild nutrient reserves, immunity, brain function, and more. You'll learn practical ways to start (even if texture or taste is a hurdle), what to know about sourcing and safety (including the "liver filters toxins" concern), how to cook liver so it's actually pleasant, and why bone broth remains the world's #1 recovery food. In this episode: Why organ meats are more nutrient-dense than muscle meat Sacred/sick foods across cultures (liver, marrow, fish heads/roe, fermented cod liver oils) Addressing the "liver stores toxins" myth and what to choose if grass-fed isn't available Bone broth benefits (gut, immunity, joints, skin, sleep) and a simple 4-day simmer method Best organs to start with (liver, heart, kidney, spleen, brain) + easy beginner recipes (pâté, liverwurst) Cooking tips: quick sear for liver, pairing with sauerkraut; heart as "muscle-like" gateway organ "Organ specificity": why eating an organ may support that organ's function Liver vs spinach: a quick nutrient comparison (B12, heme iron, choline, minerals)   For full show notes, resources and links head to: https://vitalhealthcda.com/podcasts/   The Vital Health for You Podcast is for everyone.

In this episode, Dr. Jockers uncovers the real story behind red meat and cholesterol. He breaks down why processed carbs, seed oils, and insulin resistance—not red meat—are driving heart disease. You'll also learn how cholesterol actually supports cell health and hormone balance.   You'll discover how grass-fed red meat fuels your body with essential nutrients like carnitine, zinc, and vitamin B12 while reducing inflammation. Dr. Jockers explains why nutrient quality matters more than quantity and how modern research challenges old diet myths.   If you've ever felt bloated, sluggish, or uneasy after eating meat, this episode shows what's really going on. Learn how low stomach acid, sluggish bile, or gut imbalances may be the issue—and the simple, natural ways to fix them for better digestion and energy.   In This Episode:  00:00 Introduction to Beef Tallow and Seed Oils 00:41 Interview with Steven Ano: The Journey of Ancient Crunch 05:39 The Birth of Masa Chips 10:26 Challenges in Perfecting the Recipe 14:14 The Importance of Organic Ingredients 19:37 The Rise of Vandy Crisps 26:39 The Vicious Cycle of Non-Organic Farming 27:58 The Benefits and Drawbacks of Avocado Oil 28:40 Comparing Cooking Oils: Olive Oil, Coconut Oil, and Beef Tallow 30:40 The Science Behind Cooking Oils and Their Properties 37:57 Challenges and Innovations in Healthy Snack Production 40:09 Expanding Product Lines and Future Plans 41:41 The Philosophy of Real Food and Health 45:00 Conclusion and Final Thoughts   Hydration is one of the fastest ways to boost your energy, sharpen your focus, curb cravings, and even improve the look and feel of your skin — but water alone isn't enough.

Common medications like Tylenol, statins, and diabetes drugs quietly deplete essential nutrients and stress your liver. Learn which five medications cause nutritional deficiencies, what nutrients they deplete, and actionable steps to restore balance while protecting your liver health through targeted supplementation and lifestyle changes. FEATURED SUPPLEMENT Liver Boost – Every medication you take passes through and stresses your liver, depleting essential nutrients like glutathione, CoQ10, and B vitamins. Liver Boost is specifically formulated to support your liver's detoxification pathways and help regenerate liver function.  Learn more: https://mswnutrition.com/products/liver-boost 5 KEY TAKEAWAYS Acetaminophen Destroys Glutathione – Every dose of Tylenol depletes your liver's master antioxidant (glutathione), reducing your body's ability to detoxify and fight inflammation, which can lead to liver toxicity with long-term use. Statins Lower CoQ10 Levels – Cholesterol medications deplete CoQ10, a critical nutrient for heart and liver function that supports mitochondrial energy production. Anyone on statins should supplement with CoQ10 to prevent deficiency. Metformin Causes B12 Deficiency – This common diabetes medication depletes vitamin B12, leading to fatigue, nerve damage, and digestive issues. Long-term metformin users need regular B12 monitoring and supplementation. Birth Control Depletes Multiple Nutrients – Oral contraceptives reduce B6, B9 (folate), and magnesium levels, affecting liver function, hormone regulation, and overall health, especially problematic for women on long-term birth control. PPIs Create Dangerous Deficiencies – Acid-reducing medications like Nexium deplete B12, magnesium, and zinc, impairing digestion, liver health, and nutrient absorption, creating a vicious cycle of deficiency.

A 2025 systematic review published in the journal Nutrients analyzed the role of folate supplementation in managing peripheral neuropathy (PN). The review synthesized data from 12 studies, which included a total of 3015 patients. The findings demonstrated "promising symptomatic benefits". This included pain reductions reaching 3 points , symptom resolution rates as high as 87.5% , and improvements in Neuropathy Total Symptom Score (NTSS-6) scores ranging from 0.9 to 1.5 points.Beyond symptoms, the review also highlighted objective structural improvements, such as increases in epidermal nerve fiber density (ENFD) that reached 97% in one case. Furthermore, folate supplementation was found to significantly decrease levels of homocysteine and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP). The review concluded that folate has an "excellent safety profile," reporting only one adverse event among 1367 individuals.• "This information is for educational purposes only and should not be interpreted as medical advice."• "The study discussed is a systematic review, which synthesizes data from 12 other studies (including observational studies and randomized controlled trials). The included studies used various folate forms and dosages, often in combination with other B-vitamins."• "Always consult with a qualified healthcare professional before making any changes to your diet, supplement regimen, or treatment plan, especially if you have a medical condition or are taking medications."#Folate #PeripheralNeuropathy #DiabeticPeripheralNeuropathy #SystematicReview #HomocysteineAlves Maues, A.C.; Moren Abat, M.G.; Benlloch, M.; Mariscal, G.

“Je hebt geen supplementen nodig als je gezond en gevarieerd eet (maar zo eten we niet)” In deze nieuwe rubriek van PoV, gekoppeld aan het boek Eet als een expert 2.0, duiken we dieper in de wetenschap achter voeding. Samen met experts, onderzoekers en de auteurs zelf. Hoe meer je weet, hoe meer je weet wat je niet weet. Zo krijgen we steeds scherper wat we willen opschrijven. Voor de aftrap ontvangen we een vertrouwd gezicht: prof. dr. Renger Witkamp, hoogleraar Voeding en Farmacologie aan Wageningen Universiteit, die al eens te gast was in seizoen 2. Samen met de auteurs Liesbeth Smit en Marijke Berkenpas verkennen we de wereld van vitamines, mineralen en supplementen. Wat zegt de wetenschap? Wie loopt er eigenlijk risico op tekorten, en is dat een probleem? En waarom is het debat over supplementen vaak zo zwart-wit? Tijdens het schrijven van Eet als een expert 2.0 bleef één vraag steeds terugkomen. Er wordt vaak gezegd dat je geen supplementen nodig hebt als je gezond en gevarieerd eet. Maar we weten ook dat veel Nederlanders dat niet doen, en dat sommige groepen wél risico lopen op een tekort aan bijvoorbeeld B12, ijzer of jodium. Dus hoe houdbaar is dat advies eigenlijk? En kan een simpele multivitamine dan niet juist een verstandige voorzorg zijn? Luister mee naar een open, nuchter en nieuwsgierig gesprek over vitamines en supplementen.   I'm a Foodie is onafhankelijk en heeft geen banden met de voedingsindustrie. We ontwikkelen webinars, online masterclasses en schrijven boeken om jou te inspireren om gezonder te gaan eten.

For years, we've been told that vegan and vegetarian diets "require careful planning" to be healthy — while omnivorous diets get a free pass. But is that really true? In this episode of The Exam Room Podcast, host Chuck Carroll sits down with Dr. Matt Nagra to discuss his new peer-reviewed study published in the International Journal of Disease Reversal and Prevention: "Asymmetrical Dietary Guidance: Reassessing the 'Careful Planning' Caveat in Vegetarian and Vegan Diets." You'll also hear why some vegans experience a slightly higher fracture risk, what's really behind that finding, and how simple nutrition strategies can easily close the gap. In this conversation, you'll learn: What new research reveals about vegan, vegetarian, and omnivorous diets How omnivorous diets often miss critical nutrients for long-term health The role of vitamin B12, vitamin D, and calcium in plant-based nutrition Why all diets require thoughtful planning to meet nutrient needs The real reason vegans may have a higher fracture risk — and how to prevent it How language in nutrition guidelines may unintentionally stigmatize plant-based diets Listen and learn how balanced nutrition guidance can improve health outcomes for everyone — and why reframing the conversation around "careful planning" could change the future of public health.

Welcome and Thank you for listening.  This podcast is mainly about the Coldwater Creek 50k/ 33.2 mile trail race in Anniston Alabama.   Good news: I finished Better news: I finished with a bang and before the cutoff.   It was close. If you have never stopped by Anniston Alabama, you should.  The people are wonderful and it is a beautiful little town with lots of trails for mountain biking, running and hiking.  There are also lots of rocks. I have been plant based nearly 25 years.  I eat fruits and vegetable as close to their natural state as possible most of the time.  I do not sell supplement and believe the best way to get nutrients is from the food.  We do need a B12 supplement. I have spoken about the importance of Vitamin D from the sun but the potential need for supplementation.  That said eating a nutrient complete plant based diet takes some focus, and recently I have discovered some deficiencies that could easily be missed.  My practice aims at helping individuals achieve optimal health and wellness.  In the next few weeks, I will be diving into some of those details in this podcast.  For my members, we will be doing an extensive, tailored dive into their nutritional needs and how best to achieve them.  If you would like to learn more about our practice, visit the website at  doctordulaney.com email: jami@doctordulaney.com Cookbook: amzn.to/4onHVe4 Ebook: doctordulaney.com/.powerful-plates-ebook/?mc_cid=cc245876ac Water distillers: mypurewater.com/?sld=jdulaney discount code= cleanwaterforsophie

The 411 on Vitamin B12 (Encore of 719) We cannot mess around with getting vitamin B12. If we don't get enough, we may face a wide range of disorders of the gut, blood, brain, and nervous system.

What if your Premature Ovarian Insufficiency (POI) wasn't just about your ovaries but about your immune system turning against them? Most women with POI are told it's simply early menopause. The conversation stops at hormone replacement or donor eggs. But new research shows that for many women, POI has autoimmune roots. When that's the case, treatment, prognosis, and even pregnancy potential all look very different. In this episode, we explore how the immune system can drive POI, the red flags most doctors miss, and which labs uncover what's really happening inside your body. You'll also hear how a functional fertility approach can calm immune dysfunction and support natural ovarian activity. You'll learn: The latest evidence connecting autoimmunity and Premature Ovarian Insufficiency Red flags that suggest POI may be immune-driven rather than purely ovarian The key labs to request for thyroid, gut, and immune system assessment Why conventional HRT isn't enough and how bioidentical hormones fit in Functional fertility strategies that support hormone balance and ovarian function Sarah Clark is the founder of Fab Fertile Inc. and the host of Get Pregnant Naturally. Her team specializes in functional approaches for low AMH, high FSH, diminished ovarian reserve, premature ovarian insufficiency, recurrent miscarriage and helping couples prepare their bodies for pregnancy success naturally or with IVF. This episode is for you if: You've been diagnosed with POI, low AMH, or high FSH and want to understand what's driving it You or your family have autoimmune conditions like thyroid disease, celiac, type 1 diabetes, or lupus You've had irregular cycles, miscarriages, or failed IVF transfers, and feel like something deeper is being missed Not sure where to start?

Episode description: When it comes to prenatal vitamins, the industry is failing women, period. After reviewing 27 major brands, Dr. G found that only two could prove their formulas were truly safe, clean, and effective. The rest? Ignored testing requests, refused transparency, or relied on influencer marketing instead of science. If you're pregnant or planning to be, this episode could change everything. In This Episode: • The 3 safest prenatal vitamins of 2025 — and why they passed Dr. G's strict criteria • The 25 brands that failed, including Ritual, Needed, Garden of Life, and others • Why folate (not folic acid) is critical for your baby's brain and spinal development • How a common gene variant (found in 40% of women) changes how your body absorbs vitamins • The most overlooked nutrients in prenatals — choline, DHA, iodine, and iron • What to look for in a certificate of analysis and how to verify third-party testing • How low-quality formulas can quietly harm your baby's brain, thyroid, and nervous system Key Takeaways: ✅ Only two brands met the highest standards of transparency and bioavailability. ✅ Synthetic vitamins like folic acid and cyanocobalamin (B12) may be ineffective for women with common gene variants. ✅ Look for methylated forms of B-vitamins, bioavailable choline, and algae-based DHA. ✅ Demand transparency — if a company won't share testing data, it doesn't deserve your trust.

On profite du passage à l'heure d'hiver pour participer à la 4ème édition des Minutes bleues dans les Côtes-d'Armor À l'aube ou au crépuscule, au choix. L'avantage c'est qu'on gagne une heure de sommeil, plus facile si vous n'êtes pas lève-tôt ! Ces "minutes bleues" font référence à l'heure bleue, quand le ciel prend des nuances bleutées. Une lumière unique qui a inspiré beaucoup de peintres et qui crée une atmosphère si particulière que les Côtes-d'Armor organisent chaque année des évènements éphémères, familiaux, dans 24 sites. Certains de ses sites sont d'habitude fermés au public. Coup d'envoi ce dimanche ! Quels sont vos coups de cœur ? L'abbaye de Bon-Repos. Changement d'heure oblige. Pourquoi Bon-Repos ? Il y a plus de 800 ans, le vicomte Alain III de Rohan serait parti chasser le cerf. Épuisé, il serait tombé dans un sommeil profond au cœur de la vallée. La Vierge lui serait apparue, lui suggérant d'établir le lieu de son repos éternel. Là, il fonde Notre-Dame-de-Bon-Repos en 1184, qui devient le sanctuaire de la famille : 13 générations de Rohan y seront enterrées. Et chaque année, un phénomène étrange se produit : d'innombrables courges sortent de terre avant de disparaître et de plonger dans un repos éternel dans la nuit noire. À vous d'aller les chasser. Un 2ème pour la route ? Il ne faut pas que vos neurones soient au repos. Vous allez devoir sauver la Mondovision pour assurer le 1er direct entre les États-Unis et l'Europe, en réparant l'antenne à la lueur d'une lampe torche, à travers un jeu de pistes et d'énigmes. L'antenne se situe sous le radome. Une sphère en toile en Dacron tellement gigantesque qu'elle pourrait accueillir l'Arc de Triomphe.

In this episode, we return to protein—this time looking at how to use it strategically to build and maintain muscle, especially as we age (or level up, as I like to say).If you haven't yet listened to Are You Getting Enough Protein? Part One and Are You Getting Enough Protein? Part Two, I highly recommend doing so — they lay the foundation for this deeper dive into how protein works in the body, how much we actually need, and why amino acids from plants are identical to those from animals.Today, we're getting practical and personal by looking at:* The many benefits (besides aesthetics) when we build muscle* Why protein timing matters as much as protein amount* How leucine — one of the branched-chain amino acids — acts as the “on switch” for muscle repair and growth* Why lifting heavy (yes, heavy sh*t!) is essential for preserving strength, bone density, and metabolic health* How creatine supports muscle building* Shifting from weight loss to body recomposition* Answers to your questions about collagenYou'll learn how to overcome anabolic resistance (our body's natural decline in muscle-building efficiency with age), why women in particular benefit from shorter post-workout protein windows, and how simple daily habits play into muscle repair and longevity.If you've been wondering how to eat and train for strength, confidence, and longevity — while keeping it plant-based and joyful — this episode is for you.Listen wherever you get your podcasts by clicking “play” on the player above.

Democrats are having a full meltdown over President Trump adding a ballroom to the White House. Not only is the ballroom privately funded, but by the time it is finished it will be for future presidents to enjoy rather than himself. Maria Shriver is somehow heartbroken and Hillary Clinton, of all people, got roasted for even commenting considering her husband's actions in the oval office. In Chicago, Obama's death star/North Korean guard tower a.k.a. his presidential library is one of the most hideous things to look at and a perfect representation of his hideous presidency. Speaker Johnson is dunking on Democrat minority whip leader by playing her clip on repeat outside his office. The clip in which she said American families will suffer so we can have political leverage. Our panel weighs in on all this and more, plus this week's winners and losers.

This episode addresses a terrifying but common experience for midlife women: the cognitive changes, or "brain fog," that pop up during perimenopause and menopause. Many women fear they are experiencing early-onset dementia.Host Dr. Rachel Pope speaks with Dr. Rita Shkullaku, a board-certified internist with a special interest in nutrition, obesity, and hormones as they relate to cognitive wellness and healthy aging.The Reality and Biology of Brain FogDr. Shkullaku confirms that brain fog—forgetfulness, concentration issues, and a blank mind—is very real. She notes that having "mild cognitive issues for eight to ten years has no small impact" on high-functioning women.The problem stems from both: Direct Effects: Estrogen drops affect the brain's ability to use the prefrontal cortex and manage stress. Indirect Effects: Severe sleep deprivation from night sweats and hot flashes dramatically worsens cognition.To distinguish serious issues from hormonal brain fog, Dr. Shkullaku uses the Self-Report vs. Intervention rule: women with typical brain fog are aware of their struggle, while those with true early dementia are often unaware and brought in by family.Practical Strategies and TreatmentManagement requires a holistic approach, starting with the foundation: Prioritize Sleep: Address the underlying hormonal issues or anxiety that keep you awake. Redistribute Responsibility: Normalize the struggle and ask partners/family for help to create time for self-care. Complex Cognitive Training: Pick up a new complex activity (like a new instrument or language) to engage the brain differently. Nutrition: Follow the MIND Diet (a hybrid of the Mediterranean and DASH diets).Treatment: If medically eligible, Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is a great option, primarily by eliminating sleep-disrupting symptoms. If not, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and addressing reversible causes (like iron or B12 deficiencies) are crucial.

See all the Healthcasts at https://www.biobalancehealth.com/healthcast-blog If you ever doubted your doctor because she wrote a script that you later “Googled” and found was not FDA approved, I hope you trusted your doctor enough to realize that she wouldn't recommend any medication that would hurt you…. What is an unapproved use of a drug, also called “off-label”? Unapproved use of an approved drug is often called “off-label” use. This term can mean that the drug is: Used for a disease or medical condition that it is not approved to treat, such as when a chemotherapy is approved to treat one type of cancer, but healthcare providers use it to treat a different type of cancer. The drugs that are not approved by the FDA, yet are commonly used, have been used for decades before the 1964 law that required new drugs to go through extensive and very expensive testing before their release to the public. The operative word is NEW DRUGS AFTER 1964. Today I will talk about the safety of non-FDA approved drugs because they are: Older cheaper drugs used for many diseases and conditions before 1964 and are still used Drugs that are approved for one use, or one condition, but not for other conditions that it is effective and safe for. Drugs made by compounding pharmacies for diseases that the FDA has not approved a drug for, but there is research backing the drug and years of safe use. First, before we discuss the non-FDA approved drugs, I will discuss the safety/risks of FDA approved drugs, and why FDA approval doesn't mean a drug will do no harm or even that it is effective for the use it is approved for. A little background will help you understand the problem and the reason an FDA approval does not necessarily mean a drug is safe.  Since 1964, a law was passed that established testing prior to a drug being approved by the FDA became mandatory.   Since that time several drugs that survive FDA approval and are released but are later removed or banned after their FDA release when the public finds side effects that the FDA didn't discover in their trials. One such drug is Fen-Phen, Fenfluramine/Phentermine. This drug was released during my time practicing medicine and was withdrawn after one study claimed it caused heart valve disease…In the end the “one post approval study” that claimed that heart valves were affected by this drug that caused its bann was found to be false. The withdrawal of the drug followed one study by a single cardiologist from Kansas City had reviewed all of the cardiac valve echo tests and falsified the results to make Fen-Phen appear dangerous to heart valves, when in reality it wasn't.  She lost her license, but the FDA never put Fen-Phen back on the market!  The FDA hates to be wrong twice, so they never allowed this drug back on the market after its removal. Other mistakes made by the FDA include not allowing women in the studies to approve a drug before 2014 which ignores or misses all of the side effects or lack of effectiveness for a drug when taken by women.  Despite all the expensive testing before the release of a drug by the FDA, many drugs not tested on women were later often found to have severe side effects only on women. A few examples follow: You might have heard of the FDA approved drug Ambien that causes many women to experience “night eating”, sleepwalking, and night terrors, while their male counterparts were not affected, so because they only tested men the drug was approved. In retrospect it should have been tested on women as well, and then either not passed through the FDA or should have had a black box warning for women. It takes years get action from the FDA, notifying doctors of these side effects. Women were not included in testing for any drugs except female hormones until 11 years ago, but no other drugs.   Before 2014 all (non-hormonal) drugs that passed the FDA were not tested on women so the effect on women was unknown until it was tested on the public. The FDA left women out of drug-trials because it viewed women as “mini men”, or they didn't consider us important enough to test new drugs on…OR worse, they believed we were too complicated to easily test us because of pregnancy, menopause and other hormonal swings that normal healthy women have.  In any case, we are now suffering their decisions, when a medication works one way for men and another way for women! Finally, we are tested when drugs are being evaluated for approval by the FDA. Professional women have achieved a level of authority in medicine and pharmacology (2025) and are weighing in on the inequity. Women in the medical profession and the public are pulling back the curtain on the side effects of FDA approved drugs that are experienced by women only! Slowly, study by study investigators are now publishing the side effects and problems for women with FDA approved drugs….yet these findings are not included in the warnings on most of these drugs, even now over 15 year after they became obvious to the doctors who treat women! Drugs that either don't work for women, or that have severe side effects include that were approved before 2014. All statin drugs for high cholesterol (Crestor, rosuvastatin, atorvastatin, etc.) cause women to have muscle breakdown and muscle pain. Synthroid (levothyroxine), doesn't cure the symptoms of hypothyroidism in 80% of women, but just makes the TSH lower, so it appears as if it is working! This leads doctors to tell women that their symptoms are all in their heads!! Wrong.  It is the wrong medicine. Women have enzymes that differ from men that make it difficult for them to convert the inactive form (T4) into the active form (T3), so we can't convert Synthroid (all T4) into the active form. Synthroid, the FDA approved drug for hypothyroidism, shouldn't be given to most women. Women should be given the non-FDA approved drug Armour Thyroid or NP thyroid that have both T3 and T4 in them! Ambien Prednisone and other oral steroids We have reviewed the lack of testing on women before 2014, now we will discuss safe drugs that have been used for decades even before 1964 when the FDA required testing for FDA approval? Older, yet effective and inexpensive drugs have been tested by the public, some for almost 100 years that have saved thousands of lives, yet they are not given the FDA stamp of approval!  In fact, the FDA tries to put these drugs out of circulation, replacing them with very expensive drugs that are new! Or they just shut them down, because they are not FDA approved.  Young doctors are told not to use them by their medical schoolteachers who rarely have experienced these medications in private practice…. These doctors in training don't know the history of older safer, cheaper drugs, or even why the FDA tells them avoid them. They comply not knowing why, so you are left with no drug that works for you, or you pay 3-10 times the amount for a newer FDA version of the older drug which may even have more side effects. Some of these older very effective and cheap drugs are Penicillin, Nitroglycerine for chest pain, Morphine (pain), Phenobarbital (seizures), Codeine, Armour Thyroid, hormone injections including estradiol injections and testosterone, Thorazine for psychiatric use, (Pitocin) oxytocin for labor, lactation support and Autism Colchicine:Used to treat and prevent gout. Progesterone in oil (IM) Estradiol in oil (IM) B12 for injection Testosterone Cypionate for injection Compounded Estradiol in any form Compounded Testosterone for women These drugs have been used for so long that any safety risks or side effects have been found through the use of these drugs in the population. Yet the FDA won't grandfather them in and approve them based on their history! What do doctors do when the drug the FDA has approved a drug that doesn't work for a group of their patients (gender, race, blood type, etc.)?  What happens when a doctor can't find a drug that is FDA approved needed to treat a condition she is faced with? Why do we as citizens, allow the government to have power over doctors who are already controlled by their state licensing boards as to what medications they?  Lastly Why do taxpayers allow a government agency that they fund with tax dollars control their health by banning, or not approving drugs, or banning one drug so an outrageously expensive drug is put in its place? Compounded Medications/ Compounding Pharmacies: These drugs are made by mixing ingredients to meet individual patient needs and are not subject to premarket review for safety, effectiveness, or quality. However, they ARE subject to the success or failure for which they were prescribed. If a doctor prescribes a compounded drug that doesn't work, she is apt to be confronted by her patient who is not getting the expected results.  Compounding pharmacies usually don't get paid by insurance, so patients are more invested in getting a drug that works and that is one of the big reasons that Compounded medicines are at least as good or better than big pharma or generic drugs. I absolutely could not successfully treat the thousands of women and men that I have without compounding pharmacies.  They compound hormones/drugs that are safe and effective, mostly hormones that can't be patented because they occur in nature and won't ever be made by big pharma. More than that, big producers of drugs can't produce in mass quantities many doses of a certain hormone like compounding pharmacies do.  Compounding pharmacies provide what people need and they continue to do so because patients prefer their dosing and quality.  FDA approved Generic Drugs can be legally 25 % lower dose than what they say they are.  That would be a big problem if my compounded pellets had that kind of variability. People might need pellets every 2months or every 5 months instead of every 4 months..it would be like guessing what you need ahead of time…..I believe dedicated compounding pharmacists are more accurate than any generic on the market. Compounding pharmacies: Unsung Heros Compounding pharmacies serve the public when big pharma fails and hasn't developed a safety net for production if they have a problem and the FDA shuts them down. That situation leaves patients who take their medications, without an alternative. Compounding pharmacies step into the breech when big pharma has a problem with a particular drug and stop making a drug (e.g. Lidocaine, B12 injectable, IV Fluids, to name a few shortages and no production that have occurred in the recent past). What if patients couldn't get the meds they need, and if there were no compounding pharmacies—Chaos and suffering and dying patients would closely follow! The FDA is Fickle and is not on your side! For years the FDA did not approve of Bioidentical estrogen and testosterone in any form, and just a few months ago all of a sudden, long after they scared women from taking the hormones they needed to improve their length of life and quality of life, they decided bioidentical hormones are better than the FDA approved hormones!!!  That is a little too late.  Some of us will never forget the stress lack of approval of compounded hormones caused for doctors and patients alike.  Other doctors criticized us and now most of them aren't even in practice anymore.  Maybe the FDA read my blog!!! Compounded hormones have been approved by the masses of women who have taken them under my signature! Compounded BI hormones are medications with a long track record and should not have to be tested with the bloated expense required of testing for the FDA. For Gynecological Disorders that don't have an FDA approved hormone drug because testosterone and estradiol have been used for so long that they don't need testing. If there was a significant problem with them their history of use of over 5-7 decades has proven the efficacy and safety of the female hormones for treatment and hormone replacement. For Psychiatric Disorders: Some patients need compounded ketamine products for conditions like severe depression, despite lacking FDA approval for these uses and potential risks, yet it has been used for this purpose for decades and was used for childbirth for almost a century, until epidurals and saddle blocks took their place. Testosterone for women still is not recognized as a female hormone even though women produce over twice as much Testosterone as Estradiol when they are in their fertile years.   Replacement of T with bioidentical T pellets offers a treatment for dozens of symptoms women face after age 40, and it prevents the diseases of aging: osteoporosis, heart disease, sarcopenia, frailty, diabetes and more that have not been addressed by mainstream medicine and the FDA. Over a decade ago, the FDA turned down the approval of testosterone patch after over 3 years of positive research studies, the FDA said they didn't approve T for women is because the side effect of T for women, facial hair, was dangerous for women.…I cry B—–S—-!  That is really men not wanting to share testosterone replacement with women. I say leave us alone and let women and their doctors determine what they need.  It is proven that only 5% of all professionals in any profession are not trustworthy, so give doctors their due and trust that we are looking for answers to our patients' problems that you don't even know about! The FDA is paid for by us…everyone in this country. I say hands off! Speed up the approval process or forget it for older drugs and BI hormones! ~

How to decrease VISCERAL FAT A new way to IMPROVE MUSCLE MASS by 30% for strength and beauty in 4 weeks DECREASE SUBCUTANEOUS FAT by 25% in 4 weekly treatments INCREASE MUSCLE DEFINITION with Emsculpt Neo A way to REHABILITATE AFTER SURGERY PRE-TREAT BEFORE SURGERY: Improve your post op joint surgery condition by increasing muscle around the joint HOW TO RECOVER Quickly AFTER CHILDBIRTH A Way to IMPROVE CORE AND PELVIC FLOOR STRENGTH How EM-Sculpt-Neo works Most of you know me as the expert in Bioidentical Hormone Pellet Replacement, but I am also expert in Skin and body care.  If my patients have problems that your PCP has not been able to solve.  I will refer you for new therapies, cutting edge treatments that work to treat your problem. The most common problem that my patients complain of is loss of muscle mass and changes in body fat that make them look old.  I found a treatment that is not a laser, but the Emsculpt Neo uses safe and effective magnetic energy plus RF treatment to reduce fat and build muscle in a 30-minute painless treatment. Today I am going to talk about a painless treatment that we offer at my medical spa, BioBalance® Skin that has just been approved by the FDA for rehab after joint surgery.  The magnetic energy (HIFEM) combined with RF energy increases muscle size and strength by 30%, dissolve fat by 25%, as well as tightens skin with the same treatment! EM Sculpt Neo is a 30-minute treatment that uses magnetic energy to make your muscles contract and is equal to thousands of crunches for 30 minutes. The RF portion breaks down subcutaneous fat in the same area.  There is no work on your part, you just lie there, and your muscles respond to the magnetic pull by increasing in size and strength.  Four sessions one week apart is the ideal number of treatments, and they come a in a package of four treatments to one area. The areas that most of us want to build muscle and lose fat in are our abs, upper arms, thighs, calves, love handles, and hips. If you need to do more than one area at a treatment you can do up to three areas, each for 30 minutes. If you have had joint surgery and need to increase your strength around that joint, EMSculpt Neo is very effective, after your doctor releases you to exercise. One of the big concerns with the new weight loss medications is that people often lose muscle as they lose weight.  This is especially common after age 40, in those people who are not on testosterone pellets. EMSculpt Neo adds a tool that can preserve or even increase muscle mass and decrease fat where you want to lose it. EMSculpt Neo for fat loss and muscle building (not for rehabilitation) should be saved for those weight loss patients who lose enough weight to achieve a BMI under 30. For the best results, we suggest a high protein low carb diet, protein, low carb diet, to give your body the building blocks for muscle tissue. We also will suggest supplements for nutrition and to abstain from alcohol to get the best results. Healthy fat loss takes combination of EMSCULPT NEO, Weight Loss Medication, activity, Low carb high protein diet.  We advise our patients over BMI of 30 to get started on weight loss first and continue diet medications while you are receiving EM-Sculpt Neo treatments. How do you lose weight without losing muscle? The Best Combination for the best results while you are losing weight on medication: EMSCULPT NEO to the areas you want to remove fat from Semaglutide or Tirzepatide medication to treat obesity for weight loss Testosterone Pellets if you are a woman over 40, and man over 50. Regular exercise like walking High protein diet Supplements to improve your ability to make muscle Who should do this EMSCULPT treatment? People who are working out but cannot do sit ups because of back injury Those folks who want fast muscle mass increase in specific areas Anyone who is on a weight loss program who is losing muscle and fat, or who has saggy skin in areas where they lost weight Patients anticipating a joint surgery Patients healing from joint surgery after PT Patients who cannot lift weights because of injury Those people who lift weights but cannot develop definition People with a Beer Belly with a lot of visceral fat Some people may not be able to enjoy this sculpting, muscle building method: We will do a free consultation before you sign up for a package of EMSculpt Neo and some patients will not get optimal results if they have any of the factors below: BMI greater than 30 Metal implants anywhere that are not titanium. Titanium is not magnetic, so it is ok to have a treatment if you have a titanium joint implant. No Rods or pins. Any pacemaker implant, pain pump under your skin, nerve stimulator or you are in the first 6 weeks post-surgery for any muscle area in the area. If you have a large abdominal hernia that was not repaired, then abdominal treatment is not advisable. You can still have other areas treated. If you have unrepaired joint damage, you can still have this treatment but let us know so we can slowly work the energy up around that joint. Those people who have a pannus, an apron of skin that hangs down below the vulva, or penis will not get enough relief from this procedure. These patients will need an abdominoplasty. This surgery is done by a plastic surgeon who removes excess skin and fat and repairs the muscles and fascia. You should not waste your money if you continue to drink alcohol while undergoing this treatment. Alcohol is a toxin and will prevent the growth of muscle and loss of body fat. Don't waste your money if you are not going to follow a low carb high protein diet during and after our treatment.  How does EMSCULPT Work? EMSCULPT combines HIFEM (High Intensity Focused Electromagnetic technology) and RF (Radio Frequency). HIFEM uses magnetic energy to contract muscles in a particular area at intensities that are not achievable with routine weightlifting. Fat tissue in the treated area is also reduced by increasing metabolic activity.  This results in Body Contouring. HIFEM is approved by the FDA for Body contouring, muscle stimulation, growth and to rehabilitate patients with injuries or after surgery. The second treatment that occurs at the same time as HIFEM is RF, Radio Frequency treatment. RF is a low frequency electromagnetic wave that heats up fat in 4 minutes to stimulate collagen and elastin to tighten skin. All this happens in 30 minutes with minimal discomfort.  4 treatments, one a month, is all that is needed to increase muscle 25% and to decrease fat by 30%, and to visibly improve skin tone. Answers to questions about this procedure: What should my diet consist of to optimize my treatment? To gain muscle you must eat your weight in pounds equivalent to grams of protein every day. E.g. If you weigh 200 lbs. and you want to gain muscle, you should eat 200 grams of protein a day. What foods should I eat to optimize my treatment? The best most concentrated protein is found in animal products-eggs, milk products, fish, chicken and red meat. What supplements will help support my treatment? You may want to supplement your diet with our BioBalance Magnesium combination twice a day, Probiotics, Creatine or Arginine and Ornithine combination. You should also take a methyl B12 and Methyl Folate while you are sculpting your body. Why can't I eat a lot of carbs and drink alcohol during or after the treatment? If you eat a high carb diet, your fat loss portion of Em-Sculpt will be limited, because whatever carb you eat over-stimulates insulin, which increases insulin resistance, and increases fat deposition. Whatever is eaten goes directly to fat again and replaces what you just lost. When can I start EMSculpt after joint surgery? After PT is completed or your surgeon releases you for exercise. Can I lift weights while I am being treated? Yes, but we advise not to lift weights the day before, the day of or the day after your EMSCULPT treatment. What does hydration have to be optimal for the treatment to work effectively? The human body is almost all water, and hydration is needed for muscle contraction. Muscles don't contract optimally when you are dehydrated. We put you on a body composition machine to both document your muscle mass and fat mass, as well as tell if you are hydrated adequately. Now that you know how EMSculpt Neo can change your body composition and build muscle, I hope you are comfortable enough to let us help you get the body you have always wanted.

President Trump returned to the United States after and monumental trip to the Middle East. After speaking to the Knesset in Israel as hostages were returned to their loved ones, the president flew to Egypt to meet with Arab leaders to sign the peace deal and end the war in Gaza. President Trump came home just in time to honor Charlie Kirk posthumously with the Presidential Medal of Freedom award. Jim McLaughlin is here to discuss President Trump's approval and where we stand in the upcoming Governor's races. In New Jersey, Jack Ciattarelli is booming with tons of momentum, having been endorsed by President Trump he is out there everyday doing events and meeting people. Mikie Sherrill on the other hand is hiding much like Kamala Harris. With a scandal at the Navy and her shady stock trading practices, Sherril is getting bombarded with bad press. In Virginia, Republicans are set to sweep the race as Abigail Spanberger is sticking by jay Jones and his homicidal fantasies. In New York, radical Socialist Zohran Mamdani is set to be the new Mayor of New York as Republicans have failed to put a good candidate forward. Interesting how all the Democrats in these races are riddled with scandal and radicalism. All the while, Chuck Schumer makes average Americans suffer so he can play politics in Congress.

In this episode, I share why I've been off mainstream media (and feel calmer, clearer, and more engaged), how I stay informed on my terms, and what the Tao Te Ching and Stoicism taught me about hope that does the work. We'll look at the “doom loop,” why outrage isn't engagement, and how to channel energy into real life—voting, volunteering, showing up for people you love—without pretending everything's fine. Along the way, I unpack a Tao passage that once infuriated me (“You can't improve the world”) and how it ultimately freed me: the world is imperfect—and we make it better anyway.

Big Pharma is freaking out about the recent information RFK Jr. has released to the public. Is there a Tylenol and vaccine link to autism? Is this another instance of medical corruption for Big Pharma profits? Find out now!RFK Jr. is being called everything from irresponsible to anti-science for trying to revive “debunked vaccine myths”. Autism rates have skyrocketed from 1 in 100,000 to 1 in 31, so we need to look at everything!Vaccine safety studies do not compare vaccines to placebos, they compare vaccines to other vaccines!RFK Jr. did not say that Tylenol causes autism, but that it could be a contributing factor that can influence susceptible people to develop autism. He has raised awareness of this link and has called for further research.Tylenol is used for fevers, headaches, pain, menstrual cramps, and more. Most people think it doesn't have many side effects, but it's the leading cause of acute liver failure. Over 80,000 people each year end up in the ER because of too much acetaminophen. Tylenol's active ingredient depletes glutathione and is found in over 600 medications.A fever is a natural immune reaction to an infection, and suppressing this can increase the infection's duration.There are multiple causes of autism. One involves a genetic component with the MTHFR gene, which weakens your ability to detoxify and increases your risk of a folate deficiency.Leucovorin is a synthetic folate derivative recommended for some instances of autism. This medication could be beneficial and may provide optimal results if taken with B12, B2, B6, magnesium, and zinc. One study found that between 56% and 75% of those with autism had a folate deficiency! In another trial, synthetic folate boosted IQs by 25% to 50% compared to the placebo. Independent research is needed to explore the vaccine link to autism. We can't simply squash vaccine controversy by claiming the “science is settled.”Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.
