Do you have breast implants? Have you thought about getting them or do you know others with them? The conversation about breast implants' impact on health is a real one for a lot of women. We get into all the cases: You have implants and feel fine You have implants and are feeling symptoms you have just chalked up to menopause Whether for yourself, or to share with a friend or daughter, this one doesn't end with breast implants. It only starts there. Stay all the way to the end for the no-cut facelift details! My Guest: Dr. Robert Whitfield, MD is AMERICA'S BREAST IMPLANT ILLNESS EXPERT™ with over 25 years of experience as a plastic surgeon and more than 16 years board-certified. He specializes in Breast Implant Illness (BII), explant surgery, and advanced cosmetic procedures like his signature “No-Cut” Facelift. He is also the creator of SHARP (Strategic Holistic Accelerated Recovery Program)—a protocol designed to reduce inflammation and support both pre- and post-surgical healing. Dr. Whitfield earned his medical degree from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, followed by surgical training and a plastic surgery residency at Indiana University Medical Center, and a microsurgery fellowship in Nevada. He later taught at the Medical College of Wisconsin before moving to Austin in 2012. He began private practice in 2017. Questions We Answer in This Episode: [00:07:42] What is Breast Implant Illness (BII)? [00:08:01] What are the BII signs and symptoms? [00:08:43] Why does BII occur, and how common is it? [00:15:36] What to do if you suspect you have BII? What tests are available? Is there a holistic approach? [00:22:52] Is it covered by insurance? [00:22:36] How is BII treated? [00:30:11] What is the No-cut Facelift? What is Breast Implant Illness (BII)? Chronic inflammatory response to breast implants. Implants are foreign bodies which may cause ~29% chance of bacterial contamination, not mold. What are the Symptoms? Brain fog Fatigue and loss of motivation Gastrointestinal issues (e.g. bloating) Joint pain Hormonal imbalance Thyroid dysfunction What to Do If You Suspect BII? Educate yourself through long-form content and patient stories Consider testing for: Detox capabilities Hormonal panels Gut health and infections Look into explant surgery with comprehensive detox and recovery (e.g. SHARP protocol) The No-Cut Facelift Designed to lift and rejuvenate without surgery or visible scars The Procedure: Fiber optics for deep neck tightening FaceTite (radiofrequency tightening beneath the skin) Micro-coring: removes tiny pieces of skin to tighten surface without visible scars Benefits: Natural results with minimal scarring Boosts collagen production Customizable depending on the patient's skin, hormones, and detox status Key Takeaways BII is real and often overlooked, frequently mistaken for menopause or autoimmune disorders. Chronic inflammation and bacterial contamination (not mold) are major culprits. A new biomarker test (oxylipin 10-HOME) could soon improve diagnosis. Personal genetics, lifestyle, and environmental exposure significantly influence risk. Explant surgery should be holistic, addressing toxins, hormones, and gut health before and after. No-Cut Facelift, a minimally invasive facial rejuvenation, is a safer, scar-free alternative to traditional facelifts, emphasizing natural results.

Story at-a-glance The U.S. channels 90% of its $4.5 trillion annual healthcare costs toward chronic diseases, yet most of it funds profitable drugs and procedures that do not address the root cause of illness Prescription drugs trap patients in an endless cycle of dependence. Once patients start medications for chronic conditions, they rarely stop, even when their health continues to decline Chronic disease patients face severe financial strain; 32% have medical debt in collections and their bankruptcy rate is four times higher than that of healthy individuals Beyond the physical toll, chronic disease impacts your mental health, strains your relationships and makes you feel isolated. Caregivers also experience stress, exhaustion and lost income Medicine must shift from disease management to true healing. Instead of masking symptoms, the focus must be on restoring cellular function and supporting metabolic health to break free from the cycle of chronic illness
In this episode of the School of Doza podcast, we go behind the scenes of autoimmunity to explore what's really triggering your symptoms. From past infections to gut dysfunction, vitamin D deficiency, adrenal overload, and genetics—this episode unpacks the root causes that conventional medicine often overlooks. 5 KEY TAKEAWAYS Most autoimmune disorders are connected to previous infections, including viruses and bacteria. A damaged gut barrier can trigger immune dysregulation—leaky gut is real. Vitamin D isn't optional: low levels suppress the immune system's ability to respond. Chronic stress and overactive adrenals can drive autoimmune flare-ups. Genetic variants like MTHFR may increase susceptibility to autoimmune conditions. FEATURED PRODUCT The Good Poops Challenge is an 8-week reset designed to support your gut, liver, and gallbladder—key systems often disrupted in autoimmune conditions.

Send us a textWhen was the last time you truly felt your body from the inside out? Not just noticing an ache or pain, but deeply sensing your physical existence?For many of us, living primarily in our thoughts has disconnected us from crucial information our bodies are constantly trying to communicate. Karen Statner, clinical somatic educator and author, joins us to explore the revolutionary practice of clinical somatics—a method developed by philosopher Thomas Hanna that creates freedom through intentional movement.Karen illuminates the profound connection between our physical tension patterns and emotional states, explaining how our nervous system doesn't differentiate between body and mind, but operates as one integrated system. "We cannot change anything that we cannot feel," Karen shares, revealing how our bodies hold emotional patterns in specific muscular configurations. These patterns, whether from acute trauma or repetitive stress, become unconscious habits our nervous system maintains until we consciously release them. The result? Chronic tension, pain, disconnection, and a limited capacity to experience life fully.The beautiful revelation in this conversation is that no matter how long you've been stuck in specific patterns, change is always possible through the magic of neuroplasticity. Rather than approaching ourselves as problems to be fixed, clinical somatics offers a gentler path—becoming aware of tension, intentionally engaging it, and mindfully releasing it through a process similar to how animals naturally stretch.By reconnecting with our bodily sensations and learning to release chronic tension, we don't just improve physical comfort—we unlock emotional freedom, better relationships, and deeper connection to our authentic needs. This isn't about quick fixes but sustainable transformation that ripples outward, affecting not just ourselves but everyone around us.Ready to experience this for yourself? Karen guides us through a simple yet powerful three-step practice that demonstrates how effortlessly we can begin releasing tension and coming home to ourselves. What might change in your life if you could feel more, move freely, and live with greater presence?Listen, practice, and discover the wisdom your body has been waiting to share.Resources:Karen's website: https://www.somatichabit.co.uk/Free class: https://www.somatichabit.co.uk/freeclass/Support the showRemember, the strongest thing you can do for yourself is to ask for help.Please help us grow by subscribing to and sharing the Lift OneSelf podcast with others.The podcast intends to dissolve the stigmas around Mental Health and create healing spaces.I appreciate you, the listener, for tuning in and my guest for sharing.Our websiteLiftOneself.comemail: liftoneself@gmail.comFind more conversations on our Social Media pageswww.facebook.com/liftoneselfwww.instagram.com/liftoneselfWant to be a guest on the Lift OneSelf podcast message here on Podmatch:https://www.podmatch.com/hostdetailpreview/liftoneselfMusic by: Opening music Prazkhanal Opening music SoulProdMusicMeditation music Saavane
Chronic stress and PTSD are a hormonal imbalance issue, and if one hormone is out of balance, all hormones are out of balance. These hormones, in or out of balance, control every chemical reaction in the body. Join Luis and Karen Hurd (biochemist, nutritionist and frequent guest), as they explore the science behind what happens in the body with long-term adrenaline output. Elevated adrenaline has a cascade effect on the rest of the hormones, affecting digestion, thyroid health, and melatonin production, as well as issues with weight loss and weight gain. Karen leaves us with her top 3 simple steps to help tend to our adrenals.

Angela welcomes back Ben Azadi, author of the new book "Metabolic Freedom" to delve into the critical differences between metabolic freedom and the common state of metabolic prison, where individuals are trapped in a cycle of sugar burning and insulin resistance. Ben shares insights from his extensive research, stressing the importance of maintaining balanced blood sugar levels and the role of muscle mass in enhancing insulin sensitivity, while Angela recounts her personal journey with PCOS and how dietary changes transformed her health. KEY TAKEAWAYS Many individuals are trapped in a "metabolic prison," primarily burning sugar for energy, which can lead to insulin resistance and various health issues. In contrast, metabolic freedom allows the body to efficiently switch between burning sugar and fat, promoting better energy levels and overall health. High insulin levels are a precursor to metabolic diseases, including diabetes and heart disease. Regular testing of fasting insulin levels is crucial for assessing metabolic health, with optimal levels being in the single digits. Increasing muscle mass through strength training enhances insulin sensitivity and helps regulate blood sugar levels. Maintaining muscle as one ages can prevent metabolic slowdown and promote better health outcomes. Focusing solely on calorie counting can be misleading. Instead, prioritizing the quality of food—such as whole, unprocessed foods—can lead to better hormonal balance and overall health, making weight loss a natural side effect of improved health. Chronic stress can lead to elevated cortisol levels, which promote fat storage and hinder fat burning. Managing stress through various methods, including exercise and mindfulness, is essential for maintaining metabolic health and overall well-being. BEST MOMENTS "Unfortunately, most people are in a metabolic prison. They're handcuffed by food in order to have some short energy... when you are stuck burning sugar, it's not a fun way to live." "I think the misconception is that if we don't have good control of our metabolism, then we're going to look overweight. I certainly didn't... I was slim and fit and looked fine." "High levels of insulin... it's the first domino to fall that leads to all these metabolic diseases. It starts with high blood pressure, you start gaining weight, and then it's pre-diabetes." "We have a slight advantage insofar as we have a menstrual cycle and we can check what's going on... I think that maybe we're a little more conscious of our health because we get these signs."

In this soul-nourishing episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, we dive deep with Trinn Hatch—co-creator of Jampha Tibetan Pharmacy—into the transformative journey of healing from within. Trinn shares how his path from chronic disability and PTSD to radiant vitality began not in a clinic, but at rock bottom—with a prayer and a promise. Drawing from the ancient lineage of Sowa Rigpa, Trinn discusses how Tibetan medicine, plant energetics, and vibrational remedies awaken the body's innate healing intelligence. Whether you're burnt out, chronically ill, or just seeking wholeness, this episode is a call to reconnect with your body, your breath, and your deeper self. About the Guest:Trinn Hatch is a healing guide and co-creator of Jampha, a Tibetan Pharmacy rooted in the ancient tradition of Sowa Rigpa. Blending Himalayan minerals, terpenes, and vibrational remedies, Trinn supports others through personalized consultations and soul-led formulations. His journey of physical and emotional regeneration is a beacon for those ready to heal from within. Key Takeaways: True healing begins when you stop outsourcing and start tuning into your body's wisdom. Tibetan medicine focuses on regeneration—not symptom suppression. Terpenes reintroduce life force energy into botanical medicine for deep healing. Chronic illness often carries unresolved emotional blocks—especially in the heart. Healing isn't about fighting illness, but inviting balance and inner harmony. Remedies resonate when you're ready to receive—trust the whispers of your body.

Alex spent years having no idea that her chronic anxiety, depression, pelvic pain, foot pain, bloating, and more were connected and all coming from the same place - Nervous System dysregulation. So many of us walk the same path. As challenging as it is to be in the dark about such things, it's equally enlightening to wake up to what is really going on - and euphoric when you can do the work to rid yourself of all chronic symptoms whatsoever. This is Alex's story. As for me, Alex strolled into my life quite unexpectedly. Her father walked into my Uncle's dentist office in London, and struck up the strangest conversation about chronic pain, a niece in America, and a daughter in Amsterdam who had finally found a solution to the chronic symptoms that had plagued her for years. I was shocked to discover that the solution was me! Join us for an incredible tale of connectedness from across the globe, a perfect alignment, and a story of recovery that has led to Alex's career being dedicated to this work! I love when I get to witness a little magic in this world. Today's conversation is certainly that. Much love! xoxo n.

What if your exhaustion, anxiety, and chronic stress weren't from your job or parenting—but from your marriage?
INTRO: Student absences are on the rise. Nationally, the number of students missing school, all the way from K to 12 has doubled since the pandemic began. That's according to the U.S. Department of Education. There can be a lot of contributing factors for absences, but as Fahima Degia (Day-gi-ya) reports, some New York City public school students are choosing other pathways to develop their careers. Degia 1 46th Street in Flatbush is a long block. In the middle is a brown house. walk into the backyard there and the first thing you see is a white shed. And… It's filled with birds. Malik 1 This is a yellow headed Amazon. This comes from the Amazon Rainforest. They cost about $2,500 and they live up to like 50 to 60 years. Degia 2 That's Kizir Malik, he's18 years old and a senior at Clinton High School, in the Bronx. But, He has other things on his mind besides school. He's the co-owner of a small business selling exotic animals - like these birds. Degia 3 Omg a bird just landed on my head. Degia 4 Do you prefer you small business over school? Malik 2 laughing, That's a hard question ? That uhh it depends Degia 3 Malik started his business out of boredom when he was stuck at home during COVID. Now he has a business partner, a grownup.That's who owns the property here. And they breed cats, like Persians, in the basement. Degia 6 When I asked Malik how much he makes, he won't tell me, but he says they sell a couple of birds every day. The types of birds he sells can go for up to twenty thousand dollars. And they have an instagram account with ten thousand followers. But he has an hour commute from his home in the Bronx to his partner's house here in Brooklyn And all of this means he misses a lot of days of school. Malik 3 You know, sometimes school is not everything. But yeah, there are some days that you have to sacrifice either school or work, because work work will give you money now, you know, school will give you money later. So a couple of days won't do any harm. Degia 7 In my reporting I've seen a lot of high school students like Malik who run their own businesses - selling fake eyelashes, doing nails - some even have their own clothing brands. In NYC, just over a third of students all the way from K to grade 12 were absent in 2022. Of course they don't all have their own small businesses, but they did miss 10% of the school year. And students' prioritizing work can lead them to miss a lot of school. So how do schools fix this? Nat Malkus researches education policy at the American Enterprise Institute - a conservative leaning think tank. Malkus 1 What can schools do, I mean, schools can do a number of things, Degia 8 Malkus 2 they can provide supports, they can share transportation has met, they can actually have consequences. If students don't come back, like they could not get credits, if they don't attend enough in high school, they could have some consequences for students who don't show up Degia 9 Malkus says Chronic absenteeism harms student's ability to stay engaged and learn. He says schools should work closely with parents to ensure their kids get to school. Malkus 3 you could argue about the moral obligation, but there's a legal obligation to get your kids to school and all 50 states up to a certain age.

Story at-a-glance Chronic inflammation drives diseases like heart disease, Alzheimer's, cancer and autoimmune conditions. However, standard tests only measure generalized inflammation and does not pinpoint the exact tissues affected Researchers at Case Western Reserve University have developed a new method to track inflammation at its source using antibodies that detect molecular markers left by reactive oxygen species (ROS) Unlike traditional markers like C-reactive protein (CRP), this new approach could allow doctors to identify specific organs under inflammatory stress, leading to earlier and more precise diagnoses Emerging research challenges the idea that chronic inflammation is just unresolved acute inflammation. Researchers suggest it results from a lack of anti-inflammatory mediators, not just excessive inflammatory signaling Key drivers of chronic inflammation include excess linoleic acid, endocrine-disrupting chemicals, endotoxins and electromagnetic fields (EMFs)
In part two of Crystal McCrory Jones' story, her siblings, Jana and Dane, and her sister-in-law Julie meet with the sheriff for a conversation that raises even more questions than it answers. As they lay out inconsistencies and evidence that doesn't sit right, the sheriff listens but also dismisses, deflects, and downplays. He openly calls Crystal's husband a chronic liar, yet seems unwilling to consider that those lies might actually extend to the most important truth of all. This meeting will make you feel the frustration of a family fighting to be heard and a system that may be hearing them, but not truly listening.Please sign the petition in support of reopening the investigation into Crystal's death: https://www.change.org/p/reopen-investigation-into-death-of-crystal-mccrory-jones Connect with Jana / Stay up to date on Crystal's case:Twitter/X: https://www.twitter.com/janaglautigar Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/justiceforcrystalmccroryjonesTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@justiceforcrystalmccroryFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/3074535702847225 Jana's Link Tree: https://linktr.ee/justiceforcrystalmccroryjones Justice Denied - A Sister's Fight for Justice by Jana Guyewski-Lautigar: https://tinyurl.com/bdcy6za3 Connect with Paige:BlueSky: reverietruecrime.bsky.social Instagram: instagram.com/reverietruecrime TikTok: tiktok.com/@paige.elmore Facebook: facebook.com/reverietruecrime Twitter/X: twitter.com/reveriecrimepod Intro and Outro by Jahred Gomes: https://www.instagram.com/jahredgomes_officialBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/reverie-true-crime--4442888/support.
SummaryWelcome to another inspiring episode of The Metabolism, Muscles, & Mindset Podcast with Ali Novitsky, MD, a board-certified obesity medicine physician and renowned fitness expert. In this episode, Dr. Novitsky explores the intricate relationship between energy and physical health —and why honoring your unique energy baseline is the key to sustainable wellness.Dr. Novitsky distinguishes between vibrational energy (influenced by thoughts and emotions) and natural energy (your innate rhythm). By understanding and respecting your baseline — whether it's calm and reflective or vibrant and fast-paced — you can unlock powerful strategies for physical consistency and vitality. From hormones and sleep to nutrition and exercise, Dr. Novitsky dives deep into how your physical health either thrives or struggles based on your energy regulation.She also introduces practical, science-backed tools for managing stress, creating nutrition strategies that work with your emotional bandwidth, and building an exercise routine that fosters longevity and vitality. Whether you identify as a low-energy “quiet strength” or a high-energy go-getter, this episode equips you to move in harmony with your body's needs and create sustainable results without burnout.Key Points• Understanding Energy Types: Vibrational energy comes from thoughts and feelings; natural energy is your body's default rhythm. Honoring your baseline unlocks consistent physical health.• Hormonal Impact: Elevated cortisol and ghrelin due to stress can drain your energy, affect sleep, increase hunger, and hinder fat loss.• The Power of Rest: Sleep isn't optional — it's foundational. Chronic deprivation leads to insulin resistance, emotional dysregulation, and GI issues.• Emotional Regulation = Physical Wellness: A clean emotional “house” helps manage stress and sets the stage for long-term physical commitment.• Mindful Nutrition Tools: Dr. Novitsky highlights intuitive eating, Mindful Macros®, and calculated macros, offering flexible frameworks for optimizing energy without emotional burnout.• Exercise for Longevity: Finding your “baseline minimum” in movement, not extremes, leads to sustained energy, strength, and vitality.Timestamps• 00:02 – Introduction to energy types: vibrational vs. natural energy• 02:15 – Why honoring your personal energy rhythm supports physical health• 04:29 – Rebalancing after energy overuse: Dr. Novitsky's post-conference crash• 06:46 – Cortisol, insulin, and ghrelin: how stress hormones zap your energy• 09:03 – Hunger, fatigue, and frustration: the hormonal cycle affecting fat loss• 11:13 – The underestimated role of sleep in energy and health• 13:25 – Emotional eating, guilt, and energy collapse• 15:48 – Keeping a “clean emotional house” as a path to regulation• 18:11 – Boundaries and toxic energy: how to protect your physical wellness• 20:13 – Nutrition strategies: macros, mindset, and intuitive tools• 22:34 – Protein, sugar, fiber, and alcohol: their energetic consequences• 24:57 – Being “snobby with extras” for balance and joy• 27:16 – Sustainable exercise: finding your sweet spot for movement• 29:35 – Final reflections: choose your focus area and build consistencyFollow Dr. Ali Novitsky on SocialsTikTokFacebookInstagramYouTubeWork with Dr. Ali• Beginner Strength Training Program – 12 months for only $199!

If you've been dealing with chronic back pain or sciatica, chances are you've been told to do yoga or stretch more- but what if I told you that's NOT the solution? In this video, I break down why stretching alone won't fix chronic back pain and what you also need to be doing to get long-term relief.The truth is, back pain is more complex than just "tight muscles." You need a strategy that focuses on strength, movement patterns, and overall body mechanics, not just temporary relief from stretching.
So many "believers" like to use Scripture as well as the rest of the bible, to try to justify their desire to get high. Does the bible support smoking DOPE?

Have you ever had a moment where you completely overreacted — and then instantly thought, “Whoa… where did that come from?” Like, maybe you were already a little annoyed. You asked someone to do the dishes. They didn't. You decided to do them yourself because you need a clean kitchen before you cook dinner. And then your husband walks in, casually puts another dirty dish in the sink… …and you lose it. Later, you think: That wasn't even that big of a deal. Why did I snap like that? These emotional swings — from zero to sixty in seconds — can feel frustrating, embarrassing, and honestly… kind of scary. Like you're not in control of your own reactions. But here's the truth: It's not just about willpower or being "too emotional." Mood swings are often a sign your body is asking for help. So what causes mood swings, really? Mood shifts can be triggered by: Hormonal fluctuations (especially around your cycle) Nutrient deficiencies Poor sleep Gut imbalances affecting neurotransmitter production Chronic stress or burnout So yes, your cycle and hormones absolutely play a role. But so does the food you eat, how you move, how you sleep, and how well your system is supported overall. If this hits home… you're not alone. So many women tell me: “I feel bad all the time.” “I'm losing friendships.” “My marriage is on the rocks and I'm not sure if it's him or me… or both.” “I don't even like being around myself anymore.” And over and over again, I see this: Once we support their hormones, mood, gut, and nutrients — everything changes. Their relationships shift. Their marriage improves. Their anxiety softens. They feel like themselves again. That's exactly why I created the 14-Day Hormone Reset. If you're tired of feeling out of control, this is your next best step. It's a short and powerful mini course where you'll get: ✅ Daily action steps ✅ A hormone-balancing nutrition plan ✅ Morning + evening routines ✅ A customized protocol based on your assessment ✅ Tools to support your mood, energy, and resilience ✅ Support from me directly — this time, I'm adding in custom recommendations and help where you need it most This isn't like any other mini course I've run. It's more personal, more transformative, and it's been completely revamped based on feedback from women like you. You deserve to feel like you again. You deserve to stop snapping and start feeling steady. You deserve to enjoy your relationships and your life without the overwhelm. ✨ Join the 14-Day Hormone Reset now → https://dr-beth-westie.mykajabi.com/14-day-hormone-reset
In this episode of 'Far From Perfect', host Kylie Larson delves into the intricacies of metabolism and total daily energy expenditure (TDEE). She explains how understanding TDEE can empower individuals to break free from chronic dieting and the ineffective 'eat less, exercise more' mentality. The conversation highlights the importance of protein intake, muscle building, and the body's natural energy balance, especially as one ages. Kylie emphasizes that diets often fail because they lead to muscle loss and a slower metabolism, ultimately making weight loss more difficult. She encourages listeners to prioritize their health and metabolism to thrive in their later years.TakeawaysTotal daily energy expenditure is crucial for understanding metabolism.Chronic dieting can lead to a lower metabolic rate.Eating less can decrease the thermic effect of food.Muscle mass is essential for a healthy metabolism.Prioritizing protein helps maintain muscle during weight loss.Non-exercise activity thermogenesis contributes significantly to calorie burn.Exercise alone is not an effective weight loss strategy.The body adapts to lower calorie intake, making weight loss harder.Maintaining a healthy metabolism is vital to prevent metabolic diseases.Strength training is essential, especially during perimenopause.

Pancreatic cancer is one of the deadliest types of cancer. It's known as the “silent killer” because, by the time you know you have it, it's often too late. Pay attention to these 7 early warning signs of pancreatic cancer.1. Sudden unexpected weight lossA problem with the pancreas can affect digestion and appetite, which can cause you to lose weight unexpectedly. 2. Abdominal painThis is typically dull, persistent pain that can radiate to the left shoulder. Sometimes, it shows up as radiating pain in the belly button that extends into the spine and often feels worse after eating. 3. Jaundice This is characterized by yellowing of the whites of the eyes and rust-colored urine caused by bile backing up into the blood. TUDCA can be a good remedy for this! Take two on an empty stomach twice a day to open the bile ducts. 4. Chronic diarrhea Most pancreatic cancer affects the part of the pancreas that is responsible for digestive enzymes, which can often lead to chronic diarrhea. 5. Diabetes A tumor in the pancreas can disrupt the cells that produce insulin, contributing to diabetes. 6. Feeling full quickly Pancreatic cancer can cause you to feel full and bloated even If you've hardly had anything to eat.7. Persistent fatigue This can be described as overwhelming, chronic fatigue that doesn't improve with more sleep.Don't consume sugar if you have pancreatic cancer!Risk factors for pancreatic cancer include the following:•Smoking tobacco •Type 2 diabetes •Obesity •Alcohol consumption•Genetic factors•Vitamin D deficiency Vitamin D may help shrink cancer and enhance the immune system's ability to fight cancer.To help prevent pancreatic cancer:•Ensure you're getting enough sleep •Reduce stress•Exercise •Practice intermittent fasting Incorporating anti-cancer foods such as cruciferous vegetables, green tea, garlic, and berberine may help. Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 59, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

In episode 228 of The Business Development Podcast, Kelly Kennedy is joined by the visionary Dr. Robert Pearl, former CEO of the Permanente Medical Group and author of ChatGPT, MD. Together, they explore how generative AI is poised to radically reshape global healthcare systems. Dr. Pearl shares a compelling case for AI's ability to bring not just information, but true expertise to the patient experience—empowering individuals, easing the burden on overworked physicians, and addressing the root causes of system-wide burnout. From real-world AI use cases to shocking inefficiencies in modern hospitals, this conversation makes one thing clear: we are standing at the edge of Healthcare 4.0, and the shift has already begun.What makes this episode unforgettable is the sense of urgency and hope. Dr. Pearl compares this moment to the invention of the printing press, the internet, and the iPhone—technologies that fundamentally altered the course of humanity. With AI's power doubling annually, he urges entrepreneurs, clinicians, and governments to act swiftly or risk missing the window to transform a system overwhelmed by chronic disease and outdated infrastructure. Whether you're a healthcare leader, tech entrepreneur, policymaker, or everyday patient, this episode is a wake-up call.Key Takeaways: 1. Generative AI marks a turning point in healthcare, offering not just information, but true medical expertise directly to patients.2. Chronic disease is the number one driver of healthcare system failure globally, not politics or bad intent.3. Current systems are built for acute care, not long-term management—AI is the key to making that shift efficiently.4. The gap between technology in surgery and administration is massive—some hospitals still rely on 1830s fax machine technology.5. Physician burnout is skyrocketing due to volume-based pay structures that force rushed care and moral injury.6. Capitated healthcare models like Kaiser Permanente improve both outcomes and physician satisfaction through prevention-focused care.7. Generative AI can manage data overload from wearables, enabling real-time, patient-led chronic disease management.8. The exponential growth of AI means tools 5 years from now will be 32x more powerful—leaders must act now or be left behind.9. Healthcare transformation likely won't come from inside the system—it will come from entrepreneurs bold enough to disrupt it.10. The book ChatGPT, MD isn't just documentation—it's a rally cry for visionary leadership to shape the future of global health.For more insights from Dr. Robert Pearl and to explore the future of healthcare through AI, visit robertpearlmd.com and pick up a copy of ChatGPT, MD.Companies mentioned in this episode: Kaiser Permanente ChatGPT Doctors Without Borders Capital Business Development Amazon Walmart CVS

Christopher is the founder of Recovery Health Coaching. He helps clients recover from chronic illness, improve chronic pain, and deal with the limitations of their conditions. He does so with principles from neuroscience, behavior management, and personalized lifestyle and supplement approaches from a Functional Health perspective. He developed this system while reversing his 35 years of autoimmunity and severe neuropathic pain and successfully working in intensive one-on-one sessions with over 100 clients. Christopher's personal journey includes conquering numerous conditions that plagued him for over 30 years, including interstitial cystitis, fibromyalgia, irritable bowel syndrome, chronic headaches, and severe neuropathy in 85% of his body. At his worst, the pain was so severe that he would stay awake for over 30 hours per wakeful cycle and relied on numerous medications including max-dose morphine and multiple muscle relaxers for nearly 10 years. His recovery approach has been primarily meat-based for over 7 years, beginning with the Autoimmune Protocol (AIP) in 2017 and then transitioning to a Keto diet. His comprehensive recovery also incorporated about 30 other interventions including lifestyle changes, mindset work, neuroscience techniques learned from former Mayo Clinic doctor Jim Lemons, and Functional Medicine principles. Today, Christopher is medication-free and physically active, lifting weights 4-6 days per week, running sprints, and going bouldering regularly. He has restored his testosterone to optimal functional ranges after measuring below 200, lost significant weight (from 242 pounds to 160 pounds), and regained his former height after postural issues had left him three inches shorter during his 15 years of disability. Christopher is currently developing two online courses focused on nervous system health and universal health principles, co-hosting the upcoming weekly podcast "Recover Your Health," and writing a book with Dr. Jim Lemons about using integrated principles to achieve optimal results with chronic health problems.

Today we discuss restoring America's health, not with another fad or magic pill, but by rethinking what we put in our bodies every single day. I'm using the word “diet” the way it's meant to be used—our habitual nourishment, not some temporary punishment. The truth is, our nation's health is in the gutter. Chronic disease is skyrocketing, and the solution isn't more meds and surgeries—it's food. Real food. In this episode, I break down how we got here, what all effective diets have in common, and six simple ways you can scale your eating habits to match your goals. Plus, … Continue reading →
