Podcasts about chronic inflammation

Today, Dr. Robert Whitfield speaks with Dr. Inna Lozinskaya, who's a specialist in integrative and functional medicine. They dive into the ways our hormones, chronic inflammation, and sleep are all connected. Dr. Lozinskaya explains how things like stress, gut health issues, and daily habits can throw our hormones and sleep out of balance, which is especially common for women and people with breast implants. Dr. Lozinskaya emphasizes the importance of obtaining the right tests, focusing on nutrition, and making lifestyle adjustments, rather than seeking a quick fix. She also shares some straightforward, practical advice for getting better sleep and feeling your best overall. The big takeaway? There's no one-size-fits-all solution. Taking a holistic, personalized approach is key when it comes to health and optimizing your hormones. Bio: Dr. Inna Lozinskaya Dr. Lozinskaya is a physician, international speaker, and wellness expert who helps patients identify and address the root causes of their symptoms to naturally restore energy, balance hormones, and slow the aging process.

Inflammation has become a nutrition buzzword, often used in extreme or misleading ways. This episode aims to clarify what inflammation is, how it relates to diet and health, and whether specific foods truly provoke inflammatory responses in the body. The episode provides a nuanced, evidence-based look at inflammation and diet. It explains the difference between acute and chronic inflammation, outlines the role of chronic low-grade inflammation in disease, and emphasizes that overall dietary patterns – rather than any single food – are what influence our inflammatory status. Commonly demonized foods (such as sugar, wheat, and dairy) are scrutinized, and the conversation debunks myths about them being uniformly “inflammatory.” In this episode, Danny takes a look at what the scientific evidence actually shows about anti-inflammatory diets.

Episode Summary: In this enlightening episode of "The Laser Light Show," Dr. Chad Woolner and Dr. Andrew Wells delve into the pervasive issue of inflammation and uncover how low-level laser therapy provides a promising solution. Drawing connections between inflammation and chronic diseases, such as arthritis, heart disease, and depression, they propose an unconventional method not to be ingested but rather utilized through light. The discussion promises to embrace health practitioners and patients alike, offering newfound insights into this therapeutic technique. This episode explores the complex nature of inflammation, emphasizing its dual role as both a healing and harmful force. Dr. Woolner and Dr. Wells discuss how traditional medicinal approaches, such as NSAIDs, often fall short with their adverse side effects, shifting the focus toward laser light therapy as a safe, effective alternative for reducing inflammation. Through highlighting the positive impact on mitochondrial stimulation and oxidative stress reduction, the hosts lay out a compelling case for lasers as a non-invasive method to not only manage inflammation but potentially revolutionize chronic disease treatment. Key Takeaways: Low-level laser therapy offers a powerful, non-invasive tool for addressing inflammation associated with chronic diseases. Chronic inflammation can result from various stimuli and lead to serious health conditions. Laser therapy can modulate inflammation by boosting mitochondrial activity, reducing oxidative stress, and influencing cellular signaling. Safe and effective, Class 2 lasers, such as those from Erchonia, offer significant health benefits without the harmful side effects associated with high-powered lasers or medications. Utilizing lasers, patients can experience increased energy, aiding healthier lifestyle transitions. Notable Quotes: "Every chronic disease, from arthritis to heart disease to depression, has one thing in common, and that is inflammation." - Dr. Chad Woolner "It's equipping your body to be able to manage the insult that's happening, but to reduce the damaging effects." - Dr. Andrew Wells "NSAIDs might help pain today, but they also may be slowly tearing apart your gut lining tomorrow." - Reference from the New England Journal of Medicine "That's the interesting thing, that's what makes it so safe, right. Is it's the body takes in that wavelength and then the body knows what to do with that energy to get back into homeostasis." - Dr. Andrew Wells "Lasers can be used immediately. It doesn't require the same degree of discipline that changing diet oftentimes can for patients." - Dr. Chad Woolner Resources: Follow Dr. Andrew Wells on LinkedIn for insights into holistic chiropractic approaches.

In this comprehensive deep dive, Dr. Tony Ebel explores PANDAS (Pediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Disorders Associated with Streptococcal Infections) and PANS from a neurologically-focused perspective. Drawing from his extensive clinical experience treating hundreds of PANDAS cases, Dr. Ebel reveals why traditional biomedical and functional medicine approaches, while important, often fall short when not properly sequenced with nervous system care.This episode challenges the conventional understanding that PANDAS begins in the gut, instead presenting compelling evidence that nervous system dysfunction is the root cause that then triggers the cascade of gut dysbiosis, immune dysfunction, and neuroinflammation. Dr. Ebel provides a detailed clinical protocol for healing, emphasizing the critical importance of addressing nervous system regulation first before implementing intensive biomedical interventions.Key Topics & TimestampsIntroduction & PANDAS Overview [00:00:00 - 00:06:00]Definition and why PANDAS cases spike during seasonal transitionsThe "perfect storm" nature of PANDAS requiring deep understandingDr. Ebel's Background & The PANDAS Rollercoaster [00:06:00 - 00:16:00]Clinical experience with hundreds of PANDAS casesPersonal story with his daughter's toxic exposureSetting realistic expectations: peaks, valleys, and signs of true healingWhy Current Approaches Fall Short [00:16:00 - 00:25:00]Traditional medicine limitationsFunctional medicine gets "one or two layers deep" but misses root causeWhy families feel stuck despite "doing everything right"The Root Cause: Nervous System First [00:25:00 - 00:36:00]Why gut-focused approaches miss the deeper issueNervous system → gut → immune → inflammation cycleThe reality of supplement overload and extreme restrictionsFinding the Right Practitioners & Protocol [00:36:00 - 00:50:00]Importance of expert-level care from neurologically-focused providersWhy "full send" biomedical approaches too early make kids worseThe 90-180 day nervous system stabilization periodClinical Implementation: The Reset Approach [00:50:00 - 01:01:00]Pausing 80% of supplements while keeping basicsUsing INSiGHT scans to achieve neurological stabilityRealistic timeline: 1-3 year healing journey with proper sequencing-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocs Facebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs Network Youtube: The PX Docs For more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.

Chronic sinusitis might be doing more than just clogging your nose–it could be clouding your brain. In this episode of Backtable ENT, Dr. Aria Jafari, an assistant professor at the University of Washington and co-director of the Neuroendocrinology Advanced Sinus and Skull-base Surgery Fellowship, discusses the connection between sinusitis and cognitive dysfunction with hosts Dr. Gopi Shah and Dr. Ashley Agan. --- SYNPOSIS Dr. Jafari shares how his interest in this field developed and details his research on the relationship between chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and brain function. The conversation highlights the comprehensive impact of sinus inflammation on overall health, emphasizing the importance of viewing CRS as a whole-body condition. They also discuss patient experiences, the methodologies used to assess cognitive dysfunction, potential treatments, and what's next in the research frontier.---TIMESTAMPS00:00 - Introduction 06:18 - The Impact of CRS on Quality of Life14:02 - Understanding Brain Fog and Cognitive Dysfunction24:29 - Pathophysiology and Theories of Cognitive Dysfunction27:44 - Chronic Inflammation and Cognitive Effects28:59 - Impact of Biologics on Cognitive Function31:28 - Risk Factors for Cognitive Dysfunction35:02 - Olfactory Symptoms 37:13 - Future Research and Treatment Approaches45:31 - Conclusion and Final Thoughts --- RESOURCES Dr. Aria Jafari https://www.uwmedicine.org/bios/aria-jafari

You're eating clean. You're moving your body. But you still feel bloated, puffy, inflamed—and the scale won't budge.Sound familiar?In this episode, we break down why inflammation could be the hidden reason your body is holding onto weight—even when you're doing everything “right.”This is especially common for women over 40, when hormone shifts, gut stress, and metabolic slowdowns collide.

Most people battling chronic illness are stuck in a loop—symptoms, meds, side effects, more meds—and they still don't get better. Today's guest, Dr. Paul Savage, is a pioneer in plasma exchange therapy, and his work is honestly game-changing. Plasma exchange isn't new. It's been used in hospitals for over 50 years. But Dr. Savage is using it in a whole new way, and his results are nothing short of groundbreaking. We're talking about a 70–95% improvement in biomarkers. Up to 90% toxin reduction in just 3 months. Real reversal (yes, reversal) of cognitive decline, autoimmune flares, long COVID, and even pre-cancer markers.  So, what is plasma exchange? Think of it like an oil change for your blood. This therapy removes virtually all toxins by filtering them out of your plasma and replacing it with clean albumin. No other therapy can do this. And here's what blew me away: This isn't just for people who are already sick. It's for anyone who wants to stay healthy, especially if chronic illness runs in your family. Toxin accumulation breaks your DNA, suppresses your immune system, and speeds up aging before you feel anything at all. We also dive into how toxins fuel obesity, heart disease, infertility, autism, and neurological issues, and why detoxing needs to happen before symptoms hit.

Are you one of the millions of Americans who eat the Standard American Diet? Even if you're not, you're likely at risk of developing pre-diabeties, insulin resistance, and chronic inflammation. But, DON'T panic, because today's episode is packed with simple steps to help you take control of your blood sugar and lower your risk of diabetes and chronic disease.On this Salad with a Side of Fries episode, host Jenn Trepeck tackles the hard truth: many people are already pre-diabetic and don't even know it. From hidden insulin resistance to chronic inflammation, Jenn breaks down how the American diet and lifestyle are fueling a national health crisis. You'll learn how poor sleep, stress, a lack of fiber, and nutrient-depleted foods undermine your metabolic health—and what you can do today to take control and manage your risks. The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, who discusses wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store.IN THIS EPISODE:(00:00) Why is the Standard American diet the recipe for pre-diabetes and diabetes, and what is insulin resistance(04:18) Metabolic health connects to every system, and the ultra-processed food dilemma(09:48) Why supplements are important(14:30) Everyone is pre-diabetic, unless. Nutrition: protein, fiber, quality fat(21:31) America's fiber problem and the role of the microbiome(26:55) Our society is sedentary(30:35) The impact stress and loneliness can have on your health(34:56) Are you sleep deprived(37:30) Let's talk about the environment and toxins(42:07) If you don't like it, don't eat it and focus on preventionKEY TAKEAWAYS:Most people eating the Standard American Diet are already pre-diabetic due to high consumption of ultra-processed foods, even if their labs don't reflect it yet. Modern farming, soil depletion, and long-distance transport have stripped our food of nutrients, making quality sourcing and supplementation essential.Staying ahead of metabolic disease means taking daily action—moving your body, managing stress, eating well, sleeping, and staying connected.  Even a short walk after a meal can significantly reduce blood sugar spikes. Daily activity improves energy and focus, builds muscle, enhances insulin sensitivity, and monitors glucose levels.Just because a drink is labeled “prebiotic” doesn't mean it replaces real vegetables. Whole fruits and vegetables provide a variety of fibers that support gut health more effectively than most supplements or processed drinks. You can't supplement your way out of poor nutrition. Supplements are only as good as their quality. Many synthetic options don't break down or absorb adequately, making them useless. Food first, then smart supplementation.Chronic stress triggers hormonal changes that lead to insulin resistance and fat storage. The damage builds over time because most people don't recognize their stress. Managing stress is just as crucial as managing diet and exercise.QUOTES:         (08:56) “Our food supply is ripening while in transit, not connected to the vine where nutrients come from.” - Jenn Trepeck(18:54) “Variety is your friend. Eat the rainbow.” - Jenn Trepeck(23:30) “I'm a big fan of supplements, but you cannot supplement your way out of poor nutrition. Food first, then mart supplementation.” - Jenn Trepeck(39:36) “Next time you need to replace a mattress or a pillow. Let's make sure it's a material that isn't going to off-gas toxins.” - Jenn Trepeck"It comes down to default vs design because the way our world is set-up around us, the default would easily be the recipe for pre-diabetes and diabetes. That's why we're here...unless you do this now." - Jenn TrepeckRESOURCES:Become A Member of Salad with a Side of FriesJenn's Free Menu PlanA Salad With a Side of FriesA Salad With A Side Of Fries MerchA Salad With a Side of Fries InstagramMovember: Men's HealthReal People, Real Results: Shannon Nutrition Nugget: Ultra-Processed FoodGMO, Organic, and Local, Oh My!How to Cheat8 Domains of HealthAmerica's Fiber ProblemQ & A: SupplementsTick…Tick…BOOM

The main idea is that a carnivore diet can resolve chronic inflammation and health issues that conventional approaches like calorie restriction cannot, as demonstrated by JT's personal experience and experiments.KISMETJT discovered that while on a carnivore diet, he could consume up to 4,500 calories daily without gaining weight, contradicting conventional weight management theories that focus primarily on calorie counts rather than food quality.EPISODE SUMMARYIn this episode, Dr. Philip Ovadia interviews Carnivore JT, a former sports medicine professional and fitness trainer who once firmly believed that weight management was simply about "calories in, calories out." JT shares how his health declined in his thirties despite following conventional dietary advice, then dramatically improved after adopting a carnivore diet. His personal transformation included the elimination of lifelong eczema, psoriasis, acne, and joint pain from previous sports injuries.JT discusses his self-experiments comparing carnivore eating with standard American diet consumption, finding he could eat far more calories on carnivore without weight gain. He addresses how scientific research is often influenced by industry funding, making it difficult for consumers to find unbiased information. The main idea that emerges is that food quality matters more than calorie counting, and a meat-based diet can resolve chronic inflammation issues that conventional approaches cannot address.NOTABLE QUOTE"I had aches and pains since I was in my twenties... And since going carnivore, I feel better than when I was 21. I don't hurt when I get out of bed in the morning, which is pretty remarkable given what I have put my body through over the years."Carnivore JT Contact InfoWebsite: https://theinnercarnivore.com/X: carnivore_jtInstagram: carnivore_jtYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@carnivorejt/featuredSend Dr. Ovadia a Text Message.

In this eye-opening episode, we dive deep into Toxic Mold Syndrome—an often overlooked root cause of chronic illness. If you're dealing with unexplained fatigue, brain fog, sinus issues, or persistent inflammation, mold exposure could be the missing link. Learn the key signs and symptoms of mold toxicity, how to get a proper diagnosis, and holistic strategies to detox and support your immune system. Whether you're newly diagnosed or suspect mold may be impacting your health, this episode offers practical tips and expert insight to help you reclaim your wellness naturally. Bonnie K. Brown is a Board-Certified Patient Advocate and CellCore Biosciences Practitioner who has been dedicated to helping others uncover the root causes of their chronic illness since the year 2000. As the founder of A Better Life – Health & Wellness, she empowers individuals to reclaim their health by bridging the gap between traditional healthcare and foundational & functional medicine. Bonnie's mission is to simplify the healing journey for those who feel lost, scared, and overwhelmed - offering practical solutions and hope to those who've tried everything without success. Bonnie's expertise is not just professional - it's deeply personal. Her 40-year health journey began in college and unfolded into a decades-long medical mystery that nearly cost her life.  A former Jet Ski Champion who won the World Cup Champtionship, and National Championship - and was the only female member of the 1988 U.S. Olympic Jet Ski Team in Seoul, South Korea - Bonnie unknowingly set herself on a collision course with environmental illness. Living on the water and near mold-infested buildings led to severe health issues that spiraled out of control. Despite graduating summa cum laude with a Master's Degree in Human Development and having a brother who was a Physician's Assistant and a sister who was a Medical Lab Technician, Bonnie endured 17 major surgeries (most unnecessary), spent over $400,000 in out-of-pocket costs, and was misdiagnosed for decades. Twice, she received last rites due to preventable medical events & medical malpractice. Her experiences taught her that intelligence, credentials, and even the best connections in the world aren't enough to navigate a broken healthcare system - unless you have someone who's lived it themselves and learned how to beat it. Today, Bonnie is that guide for others. She helps clients to fast-track their healing with her proven “3 Steps to Success” framework: 1. Get you out of the toxins 2. Get the toxins out of you 3. Keep your home and workspace safe Her clients, many of whom have seen top specialists and spent tens of thousands of dollars searching for solutions, and other medical professionals who are unable to fix their own body, or help their patients get better, finally find clarity, direction, and effective results through her support & guidance. Bonnie jokes that working with someone who's survived it all means that they get all of the wisdom without any of the scars. With deep empathy, unwavering resilience, and a roadmap to health forged through personal experience, Bonnie helps others turn their worst health setbacks into powerful comebacks. She's not just a survivor - she's a thriver, a healthcare navigator, and a lifeline for those ready to reclaim their health and hope. Her mission is simple yet profound: to help others live A Better Life by offering real solutions, actionable strategies, and the belief that healing is always possible.

Join Dr. Jill Carnahan and special guest Ruby Tischoff as they uncover the Role of Galectin-3 in Breakthrough Strategies for Mold and Environmental Illness! Galectin-3 is a protein that has garnered attention for its involvement in various pathological conditions, including inflammatory cascades, hyperactivation, and fibrosis. Dr. Jill Carnahan and guest Ruby Tischoff will explain how targeting Galectin-3 can be a game-changer for individuals suffering from mold illness and other environmental sensitivities. Key Points  ✅ Galectin-3 as a Central Driver of Chronic Inflammation and Toxic Load: Ruby explained how galectin-3 acts as a pro-inflammatory lectin that contributes to chronic illness by promoting fibrosis, immune dysregulation, and cellular "trapping" of toxins like mycotoxins and lipopolysaccharides (LPS). It also facilitates pathogen persistence through biofilm formation and immune evasion, making it a critical target in addressing environmental illness. ✅ Modified Citrus Pectin (PectiSol) as a Clinically Studied Galectin-3 Blocker: The conversation highlighted how PectiSol binds and inhibits galectin-3, disrupting its pathological effects while enhancing cellular communication, immune modulation, and safe detoxification. Peer-reviewed research supports its efficacy in reducing toxic body burden, preventing biofilm-associated infections, and improving outcomes in fibrotic and oncologic conditions. ✅ Supporting Sensitive Patients through Gentle, Targeted Detox: Discussed the importance of tailoring detoxification protocols for environmentally sensitive individuals. Ruby emphasized that by lowering galectin-3, PectiSol helps reduce inflammatory cascades, Herxheimer reactions, and immune hyperactivation, thereby allowing for a more gradual and well-tolerated detoxification process. Ruby Tischoff, FDN-P Ruby Tischoff, FDN-P is a functional diagnostic nutrition practitioner and natural health expert with over 25 years of experience in integrative medicine and nutraceutical science. Ruby has worked closely under the clinical mentorship of renowned physician Isaac Eliaz, MD, and is a recognized expert in the fields of galectin-3 research and therapeutic targeting, safe detoxification, and nutritional science, among other areas. Ruby's commitment as a FDN-P emphasizes addressing root causes rather than masking symptoms, through strategic, individualized integration of leading-edge solutions grounded in evidence-based practices and outstanding clinical success. ecoNugenics  ecoNugenics supplements are rooted in a blend of science and real-world results.

Send us a textJosh Dech wasn't long into his career as a paramedic when he realized that he was working in “sick care” instead of health care. His patients weren't getting better; in fact, they were getting worse. After driving the same people to the hospital repeatedly, and watching most of them get sicker or die, he left Paramedics and went into personal training.After working with hundreds of clients, he realized that the common denominator for his clients' health issues, including skin issues, brittle hair, hormones, weight loss resistance, etc., was related to nutrition, gut health and stress. Josh went back to school and became a Holistic Nutritionist and specialized in gut health.He had numerous clients who were getting relief, but he quickly realized the extent of digestive issues with his clients who were living confined to their houses, with up to 50 bowel movements a day, crippling pain and brain fog, who were afraid to leave their house for fear of having accidents. His love for this field of health care came from watching adults get their lives back. Most doctors believe gut diseases are forever.Josh wants to prove them wrong. Find Josh at-IG- @joshdech.healthTW- @gutsolutionhttps://gutsolution.ca/Josh's Awesome Podcasts!- https://gutsolution.ca/podcastHow It's Made: Canola Oil.

From uncovering groundbreaking research in Japan to witnessing his father's recovery from arthritis, Greg dives deep into the science and potential of hydrogen therapy. He also sheds light on common misconceptions, warning about low-quality hydrogen products that may do more harm than good. The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, discussing wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store. IN THIS EPISODE: (05:13) Greg shares his healing journey using molecular hydrogen (14:10) How Japan has integrated hydrogen therapy into medical practice(18:55) Greg shares his father's story of recovery from arthritis(27:00) Greg talks about the continuing research of molecular hydrogen (34:57) How does hydrogen create these positive results in cellular health(42:52) Quality is keyKEY TAKEAWAYS: Greg shares his journey of overcoming severe health challenges by incorporating molecular hydrogen into his routine. He warns about misleading hydrogen products, particularly hydrogen tablets, which may contain harmful compounds and alter water's pH in undesirable ways.Despite promising results and increasing research, molecular hydrogen therapy remains relatively unknown in mainstream healthcare. Greg noted that Japan has integrated hydrogen therapy into medical practice, while in the U.S., financial interests and misinformation may be slowing its adoption. Hydrogen is significantly smaller than other antioxidants, allowing it to reach deep into the mitochondria and every part of the body where other antioxidants cannot. This makes it particularly effective in combating oxidative stress linked to inflammation and various diseases.QUOTES:(11:08) “It's important to use hydrogen properly because it needs to be safe, but you want it to be effective. So we want it to work.” Greg the Hydrogen Man(21:41) “We don't realize the value of our health until it's jeopardized. Right? And then we realize how little these other things matter.” Jenn Trepeck(36:27) “They put hydrogen there because they had already seen that it was having a positive effect on all these medical conditions.” Greg the Hydrogen Man(37:26) “Inflammation is essentially the source of all sickness, illness, disease. It is oxidative stress, like the rusting of our insides.” Jenn Trepeck(40:04) “Hydrogen is the most abundant element.” Jenn Trepeck(48:51) “When we can increase the nutrient density and the way nutrients reach the different body parts, there's so much possibility.” Jenn TrepeckRESOURCES:Become A Member of Salad with a Side of FriesJenn's Free Menu PlanA Salad With a Side of FriesA Salad With A Side Of Fries MerchA Salad With a Side of Fries InstagramBiostack Over BiohackBecome a Member to Receive 10% Discount off H2 TabsNutrition Nugget: AntioxidantsWhat's Your Biological AgeGUEST RESOURCES:Uprising144K Hydrogen Man - PodcastGreg Hman - InstagramHoly Hydrogen Machine - WebsiteMy Pure Water - Carbon Distiller - WebsiteGUEST BIOGRAPHY: Greg the Hydrogen Man is a molecular hydrogen therapy specialist, researcher, and host of the popular YouTube channel Uprising144K.
