Podcast appearances and mentions of Bryan Walsh

From the moment Carolina graduated from college and started her first real job, the financial advice came pouring in. It felt like everyone she knew was telling her to save for retirement. So Carolina wants to know: really? Maybe that advice was good for boomers, Gen X and millennials, but the world Carolina would be saving for seems like it's on the brink of collapse. So should Gen Z do things differently? Vox editor Bryan Walsh tells us how close we might be to an extinction-level event, and Vivian Tu a.k.a. Your Rich BFF offers some financial real talk.

In this episode, Sachin interviews Dr. Bryan Walsh. Sachin bumped into Dr. Walsh at ECO, the CellCore Conference. After talking, Sachin invited Bryan to be a guest on Perfect Practice. Bryan is extremely passionate about functional medicine. He brings over 25 years of experience in helping us become better clinicians, looking at our patients through a slightly different lens and upgrading our paradigm so we can be of better value to the people we want to serve the most.   Key Takeaways: [2:12] Sachin welcomes Dr. Bryan Walsh and thanks him for joining the podcast today. Sachin speaks of producing evidence-based treatment driven by awareness. There are more tests coming onto the market and more supplements and more research being done every year.   [3:10] Bryan started as a fitness specialist. He read much about nutrition. Before going to naturopathic school, Bryan went to a functional medicine weekend seminar produced by a lab. He was amazed by all the available tests. That hooked him on functional medicine.   [4:06] Bryan then went to naturopathic school where he met his wife. He learned about many tests and did them all: organic acid test, salivary cortisol test, urinary hormone test, stool test, hair tissue mineral analysis test, you name the test, he did it. But he started hearing gurus say things he knew not to be true and he started questioning the supplements.   [6:14] Bryan asked himself why he was running expensive tests if he didn't know their scientific validity. The scientific literature is not friendly to these biomarkers and tests. He compares it to testing your home for radon with a bad test. Bryan is trying to raise the bar in the industry for better practitioners and healthier patients for less money, and being more evidence-based.   [8:10] Bryan and his wife run their business while trying to raise the bar in the industry as much as they can. Sachin loves that they are holding the entire industry to a higher standard. You have to feel solid on the tests you order for people. The foundation of our business is the outcomes we produce.   [9:24] Sachin asks, “How do I create a program that is independent of the labs, that produces results every single time that has tons of evidence and ancient wisdom wrapped up into it, and common sense wrapped up into it, and develop a lifestyle-design program that isn't dependent on lab testing?” Sachin includes Oura rings for his patients so they can measure their progress.   [10:18] Bryan's view is that a lab test should not give you any new insights into the person, it should just confirm what you already believe to be true. That means going back to your clinical skills, history-taking, symptom questionnaire, and physical exam. Bryan's not opposed to any test that he knows of, but a test is not a fishing expedition, it's confirmation of a suspected issue.   [11:28] For example, if a patient has hypoglycemic symptoms, there's probably something going on. Testing blood glucose and A1C gathers hard data and allows for interventions and tracking progress. If someone has hypothyroid symptoms, run a complete thyroid panel and see where the defect is.   [12:35] Blood chemistry is one of Bryan's passions. Standard blood chemistry is one of the most studied labs around the world. It's been scientifically validated over and over. It's inexpensive for what you get, if you know what you're doing, have good reference markers, and are up to date on the modern literature on these markers.   [14:02] When you look at the literature on Albumin, old markers have new reasons they might be high or low that have implications for us as practitioners. If you take old tests and combine them with updated research on the markers, they can tell you as a clinician far more than you were using them for in the past.   [14:47] Bryan cites recent research linking high HDL with leaky gut. A high HDL may indicate testing for intestinal permeability of lipopolysaccharides to confirm. There is updated research on many old markers. Some inoculations are indicated from existing markers. There are new calculations for fatty liver. Some markers are useless and don't need to be run.   [17:55] Bryan notes that with too much data, it's hard for practitioners to know what to work on first. Go back to the fundamentals and the basics that you have evidence that they improve people. People are suffering and practitioners are suffering with inaccurate tests. Patients are spending on tests unnecessarily. Some tests just give patients something new to worry about.   [21:50] Bryan does not see people being plain honest about the industry. Practitioners do the best they can and show confidence about it but they don't know if the second test will show improvement over the first test.   [23:46] Bryan tells more about HDL. If triglycerides are low, HDL tends to be high, lymphocytes tend to be high and neutrophils in women tend to decrease. Potassium tends to high normal and sodium tends to low normal, because of low cortisol and aldosterone. Females with this pattern have autoimmunity and get dizzy when they stand up. Bryan looks hard at HDL.   [24:51] Bryan found one paper years ago that included in the data tape but did not report, data that people that had a higher HDL also had a higher incidence of cancer. There is an HDL immunological component. Bryan has been seeing HDL higher than LDL in the past five years more than ever before.   [24:45] Bryan talks about optimal functional ranges and shares a story. If you don't have a reference, don't speak of an optimal range. Bryan has stacks of references of ranges for various markers and he has the papers about them and how he came up with the ranges.   [28:06] The literature on GGT very clearly says high normal levels, in the upper 20s or 30s, are more accurate as a pathophysiology marker than CRP, some metrics like blood pressure, or A1C. GGT is a robust marker of pathology, xenobiotic exposure, and hepatic glutathione deficiency. It's a marker to justify your use of n-acetylcysteine.   [29:51] Pyroglutamic acid is lower in autoimmune patients than in healthy patients. Low bilirubin is a marker of fat-soluble oxidative stress. Papers that Bryan read recently show a highly increased risk of mortality for bilirubin levels below .4. This points to fat-soluble oxidative stress and may call for support from fat-soluble anti-oxidants, Co-Q 10 and Vitamin E and/or GGT.   [31:28] Bryan refers to water-soluble glutathione. N-acetylcysteine can lower High-normal GGT. These are old markers. Bryn mentions there are also loads of novel and new markers.   [32:13] What about mold? Bryan waits for the bandwagon to turn around and come back before hopping on. He doesn't want to give the newest supplement only to find it causes cancer. Mold is insidious. People are hyper-stressed about mold. A few years ago, people were stressed about candida and then heavy metals. Bryan doesn't run a blood chemistry for mold.   [35:41] High albumin is a dehydration marker. Low albumin is an inflammation marker. A1C and C-peptide are insulin markers. If fasting glucose is normal with high A1C, give a C-peptide test. Globulin is a marker of all globulins. IGG antibodies are the greatest contributor to serum globulin. To make globulin, tryptophan is required. High globulin is an autoimmunity marker.   [38:32] If a woman is taking exogenous estrogen (birth control, hormone replacement) that will drive up sex hormone-binding globulin. These women may have mild depression because of a relative tryptophan deficiency. Try tryptophan. Bryan discusses protein electrophoresis, CBC, and other tests.   [40:02] Iron fluctuates by within-person variability. Bryan talks about homocysteine. It is suggested to have a within-person variance of about 8% of 10 Mol/L. About 95% of people will have within +/- 2 standard deviations of that 8% variance. The results of a year's worth of monthly homocysteine tests might be as high as 11.2 mol/L and as low as 8.4.   [41:50] Iron has a 32% within-person variance. If iron is all over the place, so will serum iron. Don't consider iron overload protocol unless a reading is high again in 30 days. A standard iron test would be, iron, ferritin, and TIBC. Some use transferrin instead of TIBC. Ferritin has a variance of around 20%. Iron has a variance of upwards of 32%. TIBC has a low variance.   [43:19] When TIBC goes up, the body is looking for more iron. This may be because of a bacterial infection. TIBC is an important marker. The soluble transferrin receptor is a receptor for iron on transferrin. If there are no iron receptors on transferrin, the body is low on iron but doesn't want any, because it's fighting off a bacterial infection that thrives on iron. Clear it up. [48:47] Bryan believes the bacteria appear first in a leaky gut situation. He describes how they wake up without proliferating into sepsis. That's where the HDL test comes in. Bryan doesn't differentiate between a gut protocol and a non-gut immune protocol. Any botanical gets absorbed in the gut. Fibers and most minerals don't get absorbed.   [53:46] Bryan lists classifications of tests he recommends not using, and he explains why: Organic acid tests, salivary cortisol tests (unless you run it serially a few times in a week for patterns), hair tissue mineral analysis tests, and stool tests (unless you suspect a raging infection). Bryan cites incorrect medical treatments of past decades.   [1:04:45] Bryan started his career with more liberal and aggressive protocols. He is conservative now. He works with blood chemistry, evidence-based supplements, and the mental-emotional components and how they affect physiology. Not running all these labs and not going crazy about the best diet has been a huge stress reliever for Bryan.   [1:05:58] About CGM. Sometimes more data can cause anxiety, especially when used by people without diabetes. Bryan is interested in what the counterregulatory hormones are doing. If someone has hyperglycemia, is it because they have no insulin, or too much insulin and it's not working?   [1:07:56] Why do you have high glucose? Is it because you're not making enough insulin, insulin's late to the party, or do you have hyperinsulinemia and insulin resistance? That's two different patients and protocols.   [1:08:23] There is also hyper insulin sensitivity. Bryan believes that is caused by too much GLP-1. These patients have totally normal glucose but they're having a hyper insulin response with insulin receptors that are more sensitive. That is not normal physiology. The only thing CGMs focus on is the easy one, glucose. Bryan has never recommended one to a client.   [1:08:38] Sleep trackers were part of a study. They put two groups of sleepers in a room with a clock showing the wrong time. Some people had a great night's sleep but they thought they had a restricted sleep. They were asked to do math problems and they did poorly. They thought they were exhausted after eight hours of sleep.   [1:10:12] The other sleep group was interrupted after four hours of sleep but the clock showed they had slept eight hours and they believed it. They reported feeling wonderful. They did well on the math problems. The problem with gadgets is that a little information is good but we can sometimes get taken too far. Use tools as they are defined and don't take them too far.   [1:11:39] Sachin commits to give up personal tech devices for a week and see the results. Bryan says one of the biggest issues we have right now is that we are hyper-focused on ourselves and no longer focused on life and our community. In the past, who you were was who you were to the community. It was your purpose in the community.   [1:12:43] Now we look so much within ourselves, we don't look out anymore. Nobody's focused on anybody else anymore. Bryan thinks that one of the biggest health issues we have is people running around lacking purpose, lacking knowing who they are and lacking connections to other people. Bryan thinks it's showing up in neurotransmitters and hormone issues.   [1:13:54] Sachin is a student for life, like Bryan, willing to learn and adapt and experiment. He will let Bryan know in a week how the tech fast goes. The Oura ring will sit on his desk for a week.   [1:14:37] What is Bryan's take on AI in blood chemistry? He thinks it has fantastic potential. His fear is that people don't like to think. Thinking is hormetic but we just want a protocol. The literature about AI in interpreting blood chemistry is good. It does what we are trying to do mentally and manually with the numbers. Bryan's concern is we will forget how to observe.   [1:16:05] Bryan has experience with AI and labs. He looks at the lab first and draws his conclusions without bias before looking at the AI interpretation. Sachin agrees. No one can do your pushups for you.   [1:17:09] Bryan and his wife have their business at MetabolicFitnessPro.com. They are trying to raise the bar. They are Christian. In a world of dishonesty, they run with humility and integrity and they hope that everything they do emanates from there. They have a number of courses people can get to improve what they do in their practice, be successful, and feel good about it.   [1:18:47] Bryan says he doesn't think of himself as smart; when you're dumb, you keep trying to be smart. He's always trying to impress his wife, who doesn't impress easily. They are working on creating a lab with some pretty cool markers that aren't on standard labs but the evidence suggests they should be. They teach a course in blood chemistry analysis. [1:20:04] Sachin thanks Dr. Bryan Walsh for this enlightening conversation. Sachin invites Bryan to return for further discussions, to speak at Sachin's events, and to offer mentorships.   Mentioned in this episode Perfect Practice Live ECO CellCore Conference   More about your host Sachin Patel How to speak with Sachin Go one step further and Become The Living Proof Perfect Practice Live sachin@becomeproof.com To set up a practice clarity call and opportunity audit   Books by Sachin Patel: Perfect Practice: How to Build a Successful Functional Medical Business, Attract Your Ideal Patients, Serve Your Community, and Get Paid What You're Worth The Motivation Molecule: The Biological Secrets To Eliminate Procrastination, Skyrocket Productivity, and Get Sh!t Done

Esta Operacion fue diseñada para transportar ninos Cubanos hijos de padres preocupados que temian la ideologia comunista de la dictadura cubana y ya conocian lo sucedido con los ninos de Rusia , enviados por la segunda republica espanola a la Union Sovietica.En la actualidad, habiendo tenido posibilidad de recuperar su nacionalidad perdida, disponen de ciertas ayudas por parte del Estado español.Aunque los Niños de Rusia no son los únicos, ni siquiera la mayoría de los niños enviados al exilio, es común también la referencia a los mismos, en general, como los Niños de la Guerra.El sacerdote católico estadounidense, el Padre (posteriormente Monseñor) Bryan Walsh trabajó con Washington para coordinar la tramitación de visas para los niños. Vuelos de Pan Am llevaron a los niños a Miami, Florida, que, en la jerga de la operación era llamada "La tierra de Nunca Jamás" (Neverland), y por ello los niños fueron conocidos como los "Peter Pans". El plan original de la operación contaba con que los niños se reunieran con sus padres al cabo de pocos meses.En 1961, los Estados Unidos cerraron su embajada en Cuba como parte de los preparativos para la Invasión de Bahía de Cochinos. En respuesta a la invasión, Cuba llegó a un acuerdo con el premier soviético Nikita Jrushchov para trasladar armas nucleares al país, lo que llevó a la Crisis de los Misiles en 1962. Durante esta crisis, el Gobierno de los Estados Unidos canceló los vuelos entre los dos países; esto tuvo un efecto dramático, dejando a ochocientos niños a la espera de sus padres en Miami. Cuando se hizo obvio que los padres no llegarían pronto a los Estados Unidos, grupos católicos recogieron a los niños de Miami y los ubicaron en diferentes orfanatos, o con diversas familias por todo el país, para que fueran adoptados.Después del cese de los vuelos comerciales entre Cuba y EE.UU. se delinearon otras rutas alternativas para el éxodo de los niños desde Cuba, y más tarde, para los propios padres, con miras a una eventual reunificación. Muchas de estas operaciones fueron secretas pero eventualmente fueron descubiertas.Los padres viajarían a un tercer país (por lo general México o España), desde Cuba y tendrían que esperar en el limbo para obtener visados que les permitieran viajar a los Estados Unidos más tarde. El Reino Unido permitió que niños cubanos viajaran a Jamaica con visas emitidas por la embajada de Gran Bretaña, para luego viajar directamente a Estados Unidos desde allí. Si bien la Operación Peter Pan era un programa clandestino, el gobierno cubano lo descubrió.Apoyame suscribiendote a mi canal y activando las notificaciones para que formes parte de mi familia digital.

Some guys just have all the luck. Steven is one of them in that he has all the good luck and the bad luck. He's been a medical mystery his whole life, and apparently he's good at solving mysteries because he's beaten every case. Well Bryan has a few cases that could use some attention because they have the potential to end human life as we know it. The good news is it'll probably be a while.

In episode 046 of A Medicinal Mind: Wisdom and Well Being , I welcome TWO guests, and new close friends. Dr. Tommy Wood and Christopher Kelly of Nourish Balance Thrive. Between the two of them, Tommy and Chris have been helping burned out athletes achieve both optimal performance and wellness through a combination of targeted testing, nutritional approaches and selective augmentation. The two have helped thousands of athletes and are constantly providing nourishing content, no pun intended to thousands more via their NBT podcast. Additionally Tommy puts out an incredible weekly review: a “Highlights” emails that will leave you with more to chew on that just your thumbs.   In this episode we start the conversation exploring the origin stories of Chris and Tommy, finding their way into the ancestral health space. They both offer descriptions of the paths that lead them to their current work in addition to more specific details regarding the nature of the education and scholastic background.   When then explore the birth of Nourish Balance Thrive and discuss in depth the vision, passion and ethos behind this unique and innovative initiative. Chris offers a personal look into his own leap of faith starting the business, followed by the quick collaboration with bright and curious minds like Tommy.   We then get into the meat of the discussion, the newest technological feat between the two and their partner in crime naturopathic physician and biochemistry extraordinaire: Dr. Bryan Walsh. Chris and Tommy describe their blood chemistry calculator, a tool utilizing machine learning and incorporating data from thousands of athletes, that can actually predict nutritional status, blood sugar regulation, and even potentially xenobiotic exposure from just a handful of laboratory tests. While still early in its implementation, this calculator has the ability to transform medical care and functional medicine testing, and you will here from them both how they see it being optimally used and explored.   Combining perspectives for both clinicians and the lay audience, Tommy offers some great reasons, why machine learning and this calculator should be on your radar.   We then end the podcast with Tommy sharing a little of his background leading the innovative group: Physicians for Ancestral Health, an organization of which I am proudly affiliated. Tommy shares some of the vision and initiatives of the group and how he hopes to expand its reach in the months and years to come.   I still cannot fully believe I was able to share this conversation with Tommy and Chris, having listened to the two over many years during my own incubation and exploration of ancestral and functional health. I am extremely excited to share this conversation with you all and please be sure to explore the podcast show notes with links to their page, podcast and their Blood Chemistry Calculator.   And with that, let's dig into the show!
