Few, if any, sectors in Wisconsin have been more at the center of the COVID-19 fight than the biohealth industry. Lisa Johnson, chief executive officer of BioForward Wisconsin, said the sector includes life sciences, medical devices, digital health and health systems. BioForward is a membership organization that represents more than 200 companies in the sector in Wisconsin. On the latest BizTimes MKE Podcast, Johnson discussed some of the industry’s lessons learned from the COVID-19 fight, but also highlighted its opportunity to attract new talent to Wisconsin. She said the state is uniquely positioned because its biohealth sector is not overly concentrated in any one area. “You tend to see other states be very concentrated,” Johnson said. She said the pandemic has helped create a scenario where the sector’s workforce is more open to living in other areas, especially away from the coasts, but many other regions around the country are also making a play to attract talent. "We have to continue to invest in education in this state. This is one thing that we've had a history of good education, our university systems are outstanding, we cannot let these go down. This is where we are getting an abundance of our talent," Johnson said."We want to have our voices heard loud and clear, invest in education in this state. It's what we have going for us over many other states, we cannot let this go down," she added

Who do you know that others need to know? We are always one conversation away from changing our lives, and Rich Bendis of BioHealth Innovations started the BioTalk podcast to connect the world of bio-health better.  In a world where medical science advances are growing at the fastest pace in human history, we can still run into a problem where the people who know each other don’t get connected to advance therapy, new medicine, or new approaches.  Key Topics: What is the goal of Biohealth Innovations (1:44) How has the medical research changed as a result of COVID (3:24) How was the COVID vaccine researched (8:06) What made podcasting the right next step for BioHealth (10:22) Who has benefited from the podcast (12:29) Website http://www.biohealthinnovation.org/ (link) Podcast Links: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/biotalk-with-rich-bendis/id1274273731 (Apple) https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9iaW90YWxrYmVuZGlzLmxpYnN5bi5jb20vcnNz (Google) https://open.spotify.com/show/0selwkP1OxHhz2MHeNwCUQ?si=YSalbLmPS4GyNVVDrLHsJg (Spotify) Charity: American Cancer Society (https://www.cancer.org/ (https://www.cancer.org/)) Donation: https://www.cancer.org/?form=FUNVBCZKHZY (Link) Social Links https://www.linkedin.com/company/biohealth-innovation-inc-/mycompany/ (LinkedIn) https://twitter.com/BioHealthInnov (Twitter) https://twitter.com/BioHealthInnov (Facebook) Thanks for Listening!   Be sure to subscribe onhttps://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/causecasts/id1398644299?mt=2 ( Apple),https://www.google.com/podcasts?feed=aHR0cDovL2ZlZWRzLnBvZGlhbnQuY28vY2F1c2VjYXN0cy9yc3MueG1s ( Google),https://open.spotify.com/show/3hmQQrfFDPznEqEAEeRVm8 ( Spotify), https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/67ea3876-ad03-4d6f-814c-c5395544f5c6/Causepods?ref=dm_wcp_podcast_link_th (Amazon), or wherever you get your podcasts.

Ernesto Chanona, PhD is Senior Manager in the Office of BioHealth and Life Sciences at the Maryland Department of Commerce, which fosters growth of life sciences business in the state of Maryland through a host of initiatives. Ernesto helps connect various institutions (NIH, biotech/pharma companies, etc.), individuals (inventors, entrepreneurs, etc.), and investors to facilitate economic development. Given that he’s a ‘professional connector’ of sorts, our discussion largely centers around how academic researchers (PhDs, postdocs, etc.) can effectively network to unlock career opportunities, which Ernesto beautifully illustrates by sharing his own journey from NIH postdoc to his current position in the Office of BioHealth and Life Sciences. We also talk about how life sciences businesses of all sizes can collaborate with the local, domestic, or international business communities on their path to developing & commercializing products. Hosted by Roshan Chikarmane and Jenna Glatzer.

This week’s episode of “WisBusiness: the Podcast” is with Lisa Johnson, CEO for BioForward Wisconsin. She discusses the upcoming Wisconsin Biohealth Summit and provides an update on an initiative first launched in 2017 called Women in Biohealth. The initiative held nine events last year covering professional development and networking within the industry, and more events are being held this year. “And actually making them also connect with women outside of their companies, so they’re understanding how important that is to advance their careers,” she said. “We’re getting a lot of interest from elsewhere in the country about what we’ve done, because it was ground-up. It wasn’t some big national organization… We did this on our own.” The annual Wisconsin Biohealth Summit showcases what biotech and biohealth companies in the state are doing, with a focus on the future of the industry. The event is being held Oct. 2 in Madison. “We’re also bringing in people from the outside, that we think are good compliments to some of these individuals, that can expand on some of our topics like imaging alongside artificial intelligence,” she said. “We don’t want to stay just in our own little world in Wisconsin. We also want to hear about what’s going on elsewhere.”

BioHealth Innovation’s Entrepreneur-In-Residence Dr. Ethel Rubin joins Rich Bendis to discuss her career, joining BHI, and her work with the NIH

1.  Caller:  Do you fine-tune Metabolic Type using Diet Check Record sheet while on pathogen protocol? 2. In module 3 when Reed goes over the 205A page 2 and case studies, he says that he only asks the client for one main complaint instead of asking about all of their complaints. Can someone explain why?  3.  I am looking everywhere for the doctor referral to send to your clients when somethings found on the 401H I’ve looked everywhere in FTN docs and I can’t find it?  4.  Hey guys! I am preparing for my practical 1 and I have a couple questions. In the sample email I’m supposed to send before the session it states that I should attach the hormone check record as well as order forms for Biohealth and ultra life. I can’t seem to find these files anywhere. 5.  I am preparing an upcoming talk, and would like to offer a FREE lab test, like the HTMA. Has anyone else done this, given away a lab kit as a promotion. If so, how do you handle the rest.? 6.  Does the test comparison worksheet work with any laboratory? I’m in Mexico City and I’ve found a functional lab that has almost the same tests as BioHealth... so I’m wondering if the worksheet could work with this too! 7.  If someone has shown improvement with hormone support (drops) and is now at the 12 week point of having taken these, do we start to titrate them off or keep going if it looks like they might benefit from a bit more improvement? how long is it ok to keep them on these? at what point do we see if their body can keep it up, especially if other contributors to hormone dysregulation, like stress etc, are more under control and other markers are falling into line AND they report feeling better/symptom improvement (including hormone related symptoms) even though hormone numbers look like they could do a little better? thanks for any help!

In this second part of two episodes, Rich sits down with industry leaders to talk about the forum and their views on the growth of the region. His guests are Brian Darmody, CEO of AURP & Associate Vice President for Corporate Engagement at the University of Maryland and Vijay Ravindran CEO of 2019 Crab Trap Winner Floreo.

It represents over 200 Wisconsin companies in fields like medical devices, diagnostics and digital health, as well as research institutions and others involved in the industry. She discusses an initiative called “Women in Biohealth,” which began in 2017 and helps provide opportunities for professional development. “It’s really a support network,” she said. “A safe environment, to really uplift women and give them the tools they need to advance in companies.”

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend! I’m looking forward to sharing with you some of our community’s questions that have come in over the past few weeks… Let’s get started! Janine: Dear (team) Stephen, First if all i would like to dat that i absolutely love your podcast, very inspiring!! I have a question about the 21 Detox: I live in the Netherlands, So it is not possible for me to order the ‘all nutricion proteinpowder’. What can I choose instead of the poeder to make my morning shake with? (So I get the protein en vitamins that are in the poeder). Thank you in regard for answering. With kind regards, Janine van wijck Deanna: Hi there, I’ve been dealing with intestinal issues since 2010. I eat relatively healthy, drink lots of water and exercise. I’ve tried diets/pills but it never seems to be the answer to my problems. I drink a herbal tea every night in order to have a bowel movement in the morning. I don’t have extreme symptoms, I have occasional gas and bloating but I am always constipated and usually very irritatable. I feel I may have a bacterial overgrowth. I’d like to finally get to the bottom of this and heal my gut, balance my gut and get to living a life that does not revolve around my gut issues. Could you please help me with this. I am willing to do whatever it takes. Thank you. Deanna Doherty  Linda: Your site was recommended (from friends) that got their health improved over three months. I have been sick for over 5 years double over with stomach and intestinal pain, bowels vary from diarrhea, severe gas, upper reflex, constipation, bleching, my rectum is always burning. I have many test and the results were negative, I was told to take nexium 2x a day for the rest of my life, I am not on any regular medication due to the high cost. I took myself off of the stomach pills because there is little results, I just stopped Gabepentin, migraine medication. I suffer with asthma. I am so frustrated and with no medical insurance I don’t know were to find help. The last 5 years I have noticed my tigger foods any thing in onion family, garlic, black pepper, sugar, nutmeg are a few that give me extreme pain. My question is how can I narrow my search to what will help, I started a program in September protein shakes and have lost over 50 pounds but I am still very over weight. I also have autoimmune disease since 1995. Thank you Linda  Cara:  Hi Dr. Cabral! I give my 2 1/2 year old 1/4 scoop of your DNC in her morning smoothie, 1/4 teaspoon of your DFV plus I was giving her Klaire Lab Infant probiotic still but I just ran out. Not sure if that was the best for her infant to 2 years, but it's what had been recommended to me. Can I give her a portion of your Daily Probiotic at this point in time? As far as boosting immune system before traveling via airplanes I always would give her elderberry, extra probiotic and I'd sprinkle camucamu on top of that concoction. Is Camucamu still a good choice or could I give her a portion of the Full Spectrum Vitamin C? She is about 23 pounds. Thank you for all you do!! Cara:  Hi Dr. Cabral! I am almost through your Rain Barrel Effect book - it is absolutely incredible and very practical for everyone as a foundation. I'm curious about your take on furniture - couches and beds without flame retardants, they are hard to find. We got ourselves an Intellibed when I was pregnant because it doesn't have flame retardants - they use silica thread to serve that purpose. We got my daughter a Naturpedic mattress. We got a couch at a boutique place where it was refurbished and no chemicals. Just thought I'd check in and see your mattress / pillow recommendations. I know you gave a great bamboo sheet recommendation. In gratitude!! Thank you for all you do!! Donna:  Greetings Dr. Cabral, I have three options of daily contact lenses I'm looking at and would love your advice on the following;1. Acuvue Moist contacts in a solution of 58% H2O in buffered saline with povidone. 2. Bio True contacts in a solution of 78% water immersed in a solution of borate buffered saline. 3. Aqua Comfort Plus in a solution of 31% nelfilcon A, 69% water, in buffered saline containing PEG and HPMC. The saline may contain up to 0.05% Poloxamer. Also, are contacts safe to wear out in the sun or does the sunshine effect the material of the contacts like heat does to plastic bottles? Thank You for sharing all of your knowledge, experience, and advice on so many topics relating to health and nutrition. Respectfully, Donna  Danelle:  Hi Dr. Cabral, I listen to a ton of podcasts and yours is my favorite. I'd love to know what kind of diet you follow. Maybe you could tell us what you normally eat in a day? Much gratitude to you, Danelle Zhang: Greeting Dr Cabral. I have a question about the parasite test you use. I've heard from another functional medicine practitioner (Evan Brand) that the GI-Map genetic based stool test is the best stool test on the market. I am wondering why you feel Biohealth's is superior to GI Map's stool test? Thank-you Ann Marie: Hi there! New listener, my daughter turned me onto you and so happy to have found you. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. I'm a 67 year old woman, my question is how do you know if you have arthritis? I have had pain for about 6 months that started in the hip, then moved to shoulder and now back. It seems the pain is moving around my body. At its worst, it is at a 8/10. I have been taking Ibuprofen for pain but obviously don't want to take that everyday. What can I do? I know I can clean up my diet a bit so what should I absolutely stay away from?

Use coupon code “SUPSLEEP” for 10% off! Reasons you should check out Somnifix: Mouth breathing is highly inefficient. Besides leading to dry mouth, sore throat, and nasal congestion, it can cause snores, lowered blood oxygen saturation, and worsened immunity. These have serious consequences for health, fitness, and sleep. The simple solution to all of these issues is breathing through the nose. It’s easy to be cognizant of breathing during the day, but mouth breathing during sleep is widespread because we are paralyzed for certain parts of our sleep. This paralysis, called atonia, particularly affects the muscles around the mouth and neck. A great way to ensure proper breathing is by using SomniFix Mouth Strips. They are fully hypoallergenic–we’ve done extensive biocompatibility testing to ensure that users won’t experience allergic reactions or irritated skin. Our adhesive was specially-engineered for the lips. That means no pain or difficulty removing it, and no sticky residue left behind. It also releases just with the force of opening the mouth (another safety feature). We included the mesh-covered breathing vent to ensure limited mouth breathing is possible if necessary. We conducted clinical trials with our device in partnership with researchers from Harvard Medical School, and we saw that our strips are effective in reducing ‘mouth’ snores and in improving breathing efficiency. All contents of our box (box, pouches, strips, branded liner) are recyclable. Remember, the nose is for breathing and the mouth is for eating Use “SUPSLEEP” for 10% off and tag us with your mouth tape on Instagram! 25:50 - Which health tests should you prioritize and are they worth it? 28:10 - Stool analysis testings 28:40 - Saliva hormone test, 3 point or 6 point 30:00 - Basic blood panel 31:35 - In depth thyroid panel 33:00 - Combination of food sensitivity test and stool test 34:00 - MRT food sensitivity test 34:20 - Hormone testing - The Dutch Hormone Panel and The 205 CAR by Biohealth 43:00 - Thoughts on Vitamins and Supplements and figuring out what you should be taking 54:30 - Why you may be more hungry on rest days Don’t forget to join our Straight Up Paleo Pals Facebook Group to chat and ask questions!Send in questions at StraightUpPaleo.com, our email straightuppaleo@gmail.com, or our Facebook page! Also please rate, review, and subscribe to the podcast on iTunes!

In the continuing series 'Live from @BIOconvention 2017' Health Innovation Media co-host Douglas Goldstein (@eFuturist) catches up with Richard Bendis, President & CEO, BioHealth Innovation, Inc who's mission is to put the 'Capitol Region' (Maryland, Northern Virgina & D.C.) on the life sciences map: 'The BioHealth Capital Region has unmatched biohealth assets from iconic federal institutions, world-class universities, top-notch healthcare facilities, and global and emerging bioscience companies. However, we have yet to fully realize the return on investment from these assets. This is largely due to the lack of a cohesive strategy in moving ideas from labs to the market. While other regions with far less assets have proactively addressed this opportunity by creating innovation-driven economic development organizations and initiatives. It is time central Maryland started to close this gap, and it is BioHealth Innovation’s mission to complete.'  Produced by Gregg A. Masters, MPH (@2healthguru) for Health Innovation Media.

Dr Tim Gerstmar practices Naturopathic Medicine at his Redmond, WA office, Aspire Natural Health. He specialises in working with people with digestive and autoimmune problems, and has worked with many of the most difficult to treat situations using a blend of natural and conventional medicine. He treats patients locally, throughout the US and as far away as the Qatar, Korea and Australia. In this interview, Dr Gerstmar discusses the tests he most commonly uses, especially for gastrointestinal complaints. We also talk about strategies for dealing with health insurance and tips for keeping costs down. These scatter plots, sometimes called calibration plots, are the ones I mentioned in the podcast. On the x-axis is what my XGBoost model predicted for previously unseen data, the y-axis represents the measured value. When the dot appears on the diagonal line, the prediction was perfect. The model was trained using results from just 260 athletes. My hope is that is these models will eventually bring down the cost of our full program by allowing us to predict the results of an expensive test using a cheaper one.

A Whole Health Educator and Personal Trainer from Mountain View, California asked me some questions about the FDN certification and since we get so many questions like the ones below, Tommy and I did a webinar to answer those and more, live. The questions: What health services did you offer before studying with FDN?  How did you integrate your new training into your service offerings at the beginning? Have you been able to use FDN to build a solid/sustaining income and business model?  If so, how long did that ramp up process take? What marketing initiatives/strategies have you tried?  Which worked best/least? Were there additional/unforeseen start up costs? What challenges have you had along the way to setting up business with FDN?  What might you have done differently? What are your thoughts on the current lab testing that FDN recommends, as well as the supplement brands they have relationships with?   Do you find that most of your income from FDN stems from patient sessions or from supplement income?  Some other avenue?

Dr. Kurt Woeller is a functional medicine doctor, clinical advisor at Biohealth and has his own private practice where he is a specialist in autism and more. Listen in as we discuss the hypothyroidism epidemic and what is really at the root of it all.

In my early twenties, I tore a carotid artery out of my neck in a motorcycle accident. The emergency procedure that followed undoubtedly saved my life and from that point forward I had no time to listen to people complaining about the limitations of the nationalised health care that exists in the UK. In my thirties, the same system of evidence-based medicine let me down badly, and in the end, it was a chiropractor who describes himself as “the least evidence-driven person he knows” that turned my life around. Now I’m slightly confused. I am aware that the evidence-based system has a lot to offer, but I don’t feel I can use it effectively without the assistance of someone like Dr. Tommy Wood. Why? The system is in crisis. The system is in crisis in part because of the sheer volume of evidence being generated, much of which is unreproducible or misappropriated by vested interests. Building a meta-analysis atop of this shoddy foundation does little to clarify the situation. Animal and cell models. Are used as supporting evidence but frequently what happens outside of the body or in another animal has little or nothing to do with what happens in humans in a real-life setting. The models are becoming cheap enough for scientists to make multiple attempts at finding the “correct” answer, and much of the data are never published. Lies, damned lies, and statistics. You cannot prove something to be true using statistical methods. Science advances one funeral at a time. Handing out a grant to the young and inexperienced is a risky thing to do, and so inevitably the money follows experience. But imagine if your entire life’s work was based on ideas that were later shown to be wrong. Would you come clean? In this candid interview with Dr. Tommy Wood. Tommy talks about the limitations of the evidence-based system, but his intention is not to throw science under the bus. Rather, he wants us all to understand the limitations and proceed with caution. As a scientist that does peer review for a living, Tommy’s goal is to leave science in better shape than he found it. Since recording this interview, we have adopted the Agile Scrum sprint system of health coaching. And it’s going great! We’re excited about the new system, and the first health sprints are underway. I’m still very keen to know what you think about the idea, so please complete the one question (three clicks total) survey I mention in the show. Survey: The scrum and sprint Agile methods are applicable to health coaching. Here’s the outline of this interview with Dr. Tommy Wood 0:00:15    The main paper from Tommy’s PhD thesis: Treatment temperature and insult severity influence the neuroprotective effects of therapeutic hypothermia. 0:01:28    Newborn babies with brain injury. 0:02:20    The cooling is only 2 or 3 degrees. 0:02:33    What's the best temperature? 0:03:28    Figure 1: Hemispheric area loss after moderate hypoxia-ischaemia. 0:04:01    Richard D. Feinman: “Nobody loses an average amount of weight.” 0:04:49    Tommy may sound anti-science, but this is what he does for a living and he hopes to leave science in a better state than when he left it. 0:06:04    People are selective about the studies they choose to dismantle. 0:06:39    The Cochrane Collaboration. 0:07:04    Cochrane do systematic reviews and meta-analysis. 0:07:37    The meta-analysis is only as good as the studies on which it's based. 0:08:13    Publication bias is a problem. 0:08:58    Anyone can learn how to do a Cochrane review. 0:09:32    Questionable discussion: Effects of low-carbohydrate diets v. low-fat diets on body weight and cardiovascular risk factors: a meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials. 0:09:55    Tommy’s letter: The cardiovascular risk reduction benefits of a low-carbohydrate diet outweigh the potential increase in LDL-cholesterol. 0:10:47    Self-appointed expert that cannot be wrong. 0:12:11    The are a number of different funding sources. 0:13:20    It's less risky to give money to the more experienced. 0:13:35    Max Planck: “Science advances one funeral at a time.” 0:14:29    We don't know what people are doing but not publishing. 0:15:04    Cell and animal models enable you to make multiple attempts without publishing. 0:15:31    Statistics never prove anything to be true. 0:15:51    The emphasis is on new things that sound sexy. 0:16:30    One editor questioned Tommy’s animal model when a human trial was underway. 0:17:30    Papers are retracted from big journals. 0:18:27    In finance this is called backfitting. 0:19:05    How can we expect the animal model to translate to humans? 0:19:34    Most animal models don't reflect what happens in humans at all. 0:20:03    1,026 experimental treatments in acute stroke. 0:20:58    Tommy's study was a model of something that we know works in humans and other animals. 0:22:17    Because he started with the basics, Tommy is confident this work will extrapolate to humans. 0:22:59    Should consumers of science be interested in cell and animal models? 0:23:06    Tommy finds it very difficult to get excited about a mouse study. 0:23:13    There are some genetic mutations that cause Alzheimer's very young. 0:23:29    These do not translate well into humans. 0:23:48    Genomic responses in mouse models poorly mimic human inflammatory diseases. 0:24:54    The immune system is particularly complex and difficult. 0:25:41    Don't take supplements based on studies done in rats! 0:26:01    Spirulina for detox. 0:26:48    This is not even remotely close to what's going on inside a living human. 0:27:30    It's easier than ever before to get access to the science. 0:29:06    As a computer scientist, I've never done science. 0:29:43    Spend time on the basics. 0:30:28    Abraham Lincoln? “Give me six hours to chop down a tree, and I will spend four hours sharpening the axe." 0:31:17    Dr. Dan Kalish describes himself as not being evidence-driven but he still gets fantastic results. 0:31:47    Do we need to be 100% evidence-based? 0:32:04    Why Most Published Research Findings Are False. 0:32:33    Evidence based medicine: a movement in crisis? 0:32:48    Evidence-based as a starting point, not a wall of protection. 0:33:54    Anecdote is the lowest form of evidence. 0:35:52    There's no protocol for debugging a computer program but there is a system. 0:37:06    Our plans are evidence-based, but some of the newer supplements lack data. 0:37:57    My swipe file is getting out of control. 0:38:59    Gary Ralston Consulting. 0:39:07    Agile project management. 0:39:28    Could the same system work for health coaching? 0:39:53    The traditional Waterfall model. 0:41:23    Please let me know if this is a good idea. 0:41:57    I've been using Zoom. 0:42:18    Our kanban board has four columns, Todo, Doing, Review, and Done. 0:47:11    Podcast on organic acids. 0:47:49    The year one cost of our programme costs around $8,000. For the performance and longevity orientated, the cost per year thereafter is about $5,000. 0:51:18    The stool tests are not perfect, sometimes the Doctor’s Data test comes up trumps, sometimes BioHealth is best. 0:51:29    The GI-MAP™ stool test. 0:51:44    Our programme is about the cost of a mountain bike. 0:52:09    But the testing will make you faster! 0:52:49    If you're not completely happy in 8 months I will refund all of the money you spent on my time. 0:55:16    Initial round of testing and then we retest. 0:55:38    This adds accountability. 0:56:24    Agile also adds accountability. 0:57:58    My last round of testing found a blasto infection, yeast and clostridial overgrowth, b6 and carnitine deficiency. 0:58:36    How long does insulin resistance takes to happen? 0:58:55    Insulin resistance can start in your 20s and 30s. 0:59:38    Total maintenance costs. 1:00:10    $1,500 a year on supplements. 1:01:02    The people spending the most money are also the most engaged. 1:01:36    Trying too many things at once can be a problem. 1:02:19    We concentrate on teaching. 1:03:27    Podcast on the FDN training course. 1:03:57    Chet Morjaria: Coach and Director of Editorial at Breaking Muscle. 1:04:03    The best coach should be trying to work herself out of a job. 1:05:20    Getting people to pay for all of my time can be challenging. 1:05:44    The tests are more expensive on directlabs.com. 1:06:21    You can't make a living selling supplements. 1:06:23    More recently I've been charging $250 an hour for my time, but I don't bill for as much time as I spend. 1:07:00    We do lots of work on the backend but I only bill for 30 minutes of my time. 1:08:04    Dripping tests onto people. 1:08:29    If you'd like to do just one test, please order it soon! 1:10:23    We haven't made any money but we are having fun.

I've just got back from three wonderful weeks of travelling in the UK, and while I was there, I ran into some old friends who've been listening to my podcast. "Lots of great information, but not much prescriptive," they said. "What the heck is it that you do for a living now?". Well, that's the question that this show attempts to answer.  And who better than Amelia to help me describe what it is that we do at Nourish Balance Thrive. Amelia and I have been working together for about a year now, and I'm proud to announce that she's now my first full-time employee. In a nutshell: Nourish Balance Thrive is the wellness programme created by athletes, for athletes. We've had great results recommending a Paleo diet, especially The Whole30 and Autoimmune Paleo protocol, along side environment hacks to improve sleep and manage stress. We don't design training plans, but we do recommend walking and lifting heavy things. If you're already doing these things and aren't getting the brochure experience, then now might be a good time to start doing some testing. Each set of results are unique, but the set of tests I use don't vary much. The tests are: The BioHealth 205 Adrenal Stress Profile The Genova Diagnostics 0091 Organix Comprehensive Profile The BioHealth 401H GI Pathogen Screen A basic blood chemistry with CBC, CWP, iron panel, Vitamin D, A1c, insulin, homocysteine, B12, folate and more. Am I missing a test you've found to be helpful? Let me know in the comments below. I know from personal experience that when you've been feeling like crap for a long time, perception of normal becomes distorted. You can now quantify your normal and track its improvement using my Health Assessment Questionnaire, coded by my own fair hand using the Python programming language. In the show, I mentioned this LED lighting kit.

In this episode, Julie and me were lucky enough to be joined by biochemist, Silicon Valley executive, professional pilot and Certified Functional Diagnostic Nutrition practitioner Toréa Rodriguez. We discuss how Hashimoto’s thyroiditis grounded her dream job, her experience working with Chris Kresser and what exactly she's doing now to get back on track. Toréa has opened up a list for you to sign up to work with her. 05:20 Initially decided against the endocrinologist 06:00 A completely natural approach didn't work 06:27 Elevated antibodies diagnosed Hashimoto's 07:00 Toréa has a massive amount data from blood work on her thyroid 08:00 Symptoms are the last thing to show 08:25 The lab work reveals issues before they become a real problem 09:00 The benefits of functional medicine 09:33 Sensitivity is a current limitation of hormone testing 10:21 Started synthetic meds 11:00 Wasn't feeling any better, lab results still abnormal 11:21 Trial and error titration 11:45 Frustration 12:00 Treat the symptoms, if that doesn't work we'll cut it out 13:00 Toréa has spoke to many people that have had a thyroidectomy 13:20 Chris Kresser 13:43 Understanding the complexity of the condition 14:45 Dividing complexity 15:13 Health care vs disease care 16:19 Kresser ran lots of labs and spent two hours doing the interpretations 16:50 Adrenal fatigue, iron deficiency anemia 17:00 Granola bars and a vegetarian diet weren't cutting it 17:30 Put onto a strict Paleo reset diet and reintroducing meat 17:49 Within 30 days felt so much better 18:00 The transition from vegetarianism 18:41 Resilience 19:31 Vegetarianism seemed like a healthy choice 19:52 Hypoxia 21:00 Oxygen deliverability is a deal breaker 21:24 Why Toréa is no longer working with Kresser 22:00 Dr Cowan in San Francisco 22:26 Being the middle man didn't work 22:50 Quit being a pilot 23:00 Stable results were still elusive 23:36 Glandulars didn't work 24:00 Alan Christianson NMD 24:30 The role of diet in treating Hashimotos 24:50 Tried reintroducing dairy didn't work completely 25:21 Gluten is definitely a no no 25:42 Now eating an autoimmune protocol 26:00 Skin is clearing up within a week 26:15 What is AIP? 26:30 The Paleo Mom, The Paleo Approach 27:00 Leaky gut 27:45 Great book for maximizing nutrient density 28:00 Functional Diagnostic Nutrition 28:30 Which tests to run first 29:00 Diet, rest, exercise, stress reduction and then supplements 29:22 BioHealth 205 Adrenal Stress Profile 29:39 Toréa has struggled to make progress with adrenal fatigue 30:00 Is running further tests to uncover hidden root causes 30:45 Root causes vs symptoms 32:00 The importance of gut health 32:15 Women and Hashimoto's 33:00 Women's hormones are more fragile 33:45 Sara Gottfried 34:30 What you can do to help yourself 35:00 Nurturing 35:00 Take time for yourself 36:00 Falling down the hormonal flight of stairs 37:00 Toréa has the knowledge AND the time to take care of you 39:00 Getting started with lab testing
