Sean Morrison, Ph.D., from the Children's Medical Center Research Institute at UT Southwestern, investigates how stem cells function, regenerate, and interact with their surrounding environment in the bone marrow. His research reveals how leptin receptor-positive cells—key components of the bone marrow niche—regulate hematopoietic stem cell maintenance and regeneration, influence platelet production, and respond to physiological stress like pregnancy. Morrison uncovers a reciprocal relationship between these niche cells and peripheral nerves, showing that disrupting nerve signals impairs bone marrow recovery after chemotherapy or radiation. His work also links retrotransposon activation during pregnancy to increased red blood cell production, with implications for maternal health and transplant medicine.

This week, Dr. Joel Kahn dives into surprising results from recent medical research. The most eye-opening? Women recovering from a heart attack with relatively preserved heart function were found to have higher mortality risk when discharged on beta-blockers — a finding that challenges 40 years of clinical practice. Dr. Kahn urges listeners to discuss these results with their own healthcare teams. Other unexpected studies are highlighted too, including new insights on taurine, spermidine, meal timing, ketogenic diets, aspirin therapy, and even sugar substitutes.

This week on Ditch the Labcoat, Dr. Mark Bonta sits down with Dr. Diana Driscoll, an optometrist, researcher, and internationally recognized authority on the autonomic nervous system—who also happens to be one of the rare non-MDs to join the show. After her own sudden and life-altering health collapse, Dr. Driscoll found herself deep in the world of dysautonomia—a group of disorders affecting the autonomic nervous system, responsible for all those automatic functions in our bodies we don't usually have to think about. Finding few answers from doctors, and confronted by a system that too often shuns “invisible illnesses,” Dr. Driscoll became her own medical detective, pioneering research into conditions like Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) and unlocking innovative approaches to treatment.In this eye-opening conversation, Dr. Driscoll and Dr. Bonta tackle the complex, often misunderstood world of autonomic dysfunction, the science behind “mystery illnesses,” and the frustrating gaps in our medical knowledge. From the lived experience of being a patient who was told “it's all in your head,” to developing new therapeutics and advocating for others, Dr. Driscoll's story is as inspiring as it is informative.If you've ever struggled with unexplained symptoms, felt dismissed by the healthcare system, or just want to understand the evolving science behind these often-invisible disorders—this episode is for you. Plug in for a candid, practical, and hope-filled discussion that challenges the boundaries of what medicine knows today and explores the frontier where suffering finally meets science.Episode HighlightsInvisible Illness Is Real — Validation for patients with unexplained symptoms is crucial; their suffering is genuine, not imagined or "all in their head."Medicine's Knowledge Blindspots — The medical establishment often lacks answers—and even language—for complex autonomic disorders like dysautonomia and POTS.Patient-Led Discovery Matters — Dr. Driscoll's personal journey from patient to researcher demonstrates the power of self-advocacy in pushing knowledge forward.Autonomic System Ignorance — Most clinicians receive minimal training about the autonomic nervous system, leading to missed diagnoses and inadequate care.One Size Doesn't Fit All — There is no single solution for autonomic dysfunction—treatments must be individualized to each patient's complex presentation.Beyond Symptom Management — Suppressing symptoms (e.g., racing heart) without understanding the root cause can worsen patient outcomes or miss vital clues.The Inflammatory Connection — Inflammation, triggered by infections or stress, can drive autonomic dysfunction—a framework for science to pursue targeted therapies.Necessity of Clinical Innovation — When guidelines and therapies don't exist, scientific curiosity and non-traditional research can inspire new approaches and hope.The Power of Lived Experience — Practitioner-patients like Dr. Driscoll bridge gaps between science, clinical care, and compassion through firsthand understanding.Hope Through Education — Educating both patients and practitioners fosters progress—there's always hope, even if answers come step by step.Episode Timestamps04:15 – Post-COVID Dysautonomia Insights 07:12 – Invisible Illnesses and Tech Misguidance 13:07 – Central Sensitization and Unexplained Symptoms 16:44 – Nicotine Patch Stimulates Vagus Nerve 20:01 – Navigating Illness and Predatory Healthcare 20:51 – Navigating Autonomic Dysfunction Treatments 26:03 – Bridging Medical Knowledge Gaps 29:38 – Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension Insights 31:25 – Inflammation's Impact on Heart and Vision 36:07 – Chronic Illness: The Domino Effect 41:18 – Questioning Symptom-Driven Treatments 44:22 – Unseen Illness: Recognition Grows 45:26 – Advancements in Autonomic Dysfunction Treatments 49:06 – Championing Long Covid ResearchDISCLAMER >>>>>> The Ditch Lab Coat podcast serves solely for general informational purposes and does not serve as a substitute for professional medical services such as medicine or nursing.

Coaches Justin, William, and Amanda do coaching! Check them out here! In this episode of the Bacon Bibles and Barbells podcast, Coaches Justin, Bill, and Amanda delve into the topic of beta blockers, discussing their mechanisms, uses, and implications for both health and athletic performance. They explore the pros and cons of beta blockers, particularly in relation to anxiety management and blood pressure control, while also considering the safety risks for athletes. The conversation highlights the importance of lifestyle interventions and compares beta blockers with SSRIs, emphasizing the need for careful consideration before using any medication. The episode concludes with recommendations for managing anxiety and improving overall health through lifestyle changes. Some key takeaways Beta blockers are one of the oldest blood pressure medications. They work by blocking beta receptors that respond to adrenaline. Beta blockers can reduce heart rate and blood pressure. They are commonly used for anxiety management in certain situations. Athletes may experience decreased performance on beta blockers. Safety risks include potential fainting and reduced circulation. Lifestyle interventions are often more effective than medication. SSRIs can have significant side effects compared to beta blockers. Breath work and other techniques can help manage anxiety. Consulting a doctor about medication options is crucial for athletes.

Erectile Dysfunction affects 20-30 million American men and is likely under-reported. But 85% of cases are due to underlying health issues like Cardiovascular Disease. In this episode, you'll learn:—The difference between Male Impotence and Erectile Dysfunction.—How pharmaceuticals (like anti-Cholesterol medicines, Beta Blockers, and anti-depressants) are big contributors to E.D.—The astonishing statistics about declining Testosterone levels in military men since World War II. (And how these low levels are even being seen in young men who are still teenagers.)—The role Atherosclerosis and Diabetes play in E.D. And how Atherosclerosis is the #1 contributor to E.D.—Why it is "very rare" for men over 50 to have E.D. due to psychological and not physical causes. And how your libido is a key indicator for your overall health.—The "Hand Test" Dr. Prather says you can use to gauge the health of a man's erection. —Why alcohol has a negative effect on male performance and can actually shrink the testicles. And how smoking even TWO cigarettes can cause E.D.—The dangers of marijuana use for male sexual performance, including issues of infertility. And why Dr. Prather says it is "really difficult" to get Testosterone levels back up to normal levels in marijuana users.—How pornography is actually destroying male sexual performance, not enhancing it. —Why Dr. Prather says your sexual life is linked to your nutrition and "the better your nutrition, the better your virility". And the natural supplements that help with male sexual performance.http://www.TheVoiceOfHealthRadio.com
