On this episode of Five to Thrive Live, we will discuss Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome, or CIRS. This is a complex, often-misunderstood condition in which the immune system stays stuck in a chronic, damaging inflammatory state. With our guest, Dr. Eric Dorninger, we will explore the basics of CIRS and examine emerging science on how chronic inflammation may influence other chronic diseases.Five To Thrive Live is broadcast live Tuesdays at 7PM ET and Music on W4CS Radio – The Cancer Support Network (www.w4cy.com) part of Talk 4 Radio (www.talk4radio.com) on the Talk 4 Media Network (www.talk4media.com).Five To Thrive Live Podcast is also available on Talk 4 Media (www.talk4media.com), Talk 4 Podcasting (www.talk4podcasting.com), iHeartRadio, Amazon Music, Pandora, Spotify, Audible, and over 100 other podcast outlets.
In this episode of the Integrative Health Podcast, Dr. Jen sits down with John Bohde, founder of The Mold Pros, to uncover the hidden dangers of indoor mold exposure and why most standard remediation methods fail to protect your health.John explains why “dead mold is still a health concern” and how common practices like bleach, biocides, quick air sampling, and cosmetic fixes often leave behind toxic mold fragments and mycotoxins that continue to impact the nervous system, immune health, and hormones.They dive into science-backed testing methods, including environmental mycotoxin testing, infrared thermography, and layered inspections that go far beyond basic air samples. John also shares why newer homes may actually pose a higher mold risk, how HVAC systems act as the “lungs of the home,” and what homeowners need to know before buying or remediating a property.If you or your family struggle with chronic illness, fatigue, autoimmune conditions, CIRS, or unexplained symptoms, this episode provides essential, actionable guidance to protect your health and your home.Dr. Jen talks with mold expert John Bohde about hidden mold exposure, mycotoxins, failed remediation methods, ERMI testing, HVAC contamination, and how homeowners can protect their health.John Bohde is the founder of The Mold Pros, a science-driven mold inspection and remediation company specializing in advanced testing and non-toxic, enzyme-based treatments. John is known for challenging outdated industry standards and educating homeowners on how mold and mycotoxins impact long-term health—especially for those with chronic illness, autoimmune disease, or environmental sensitivity.Website: https://themoldpros.com/ X: https://x.com/TheMoldPros Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/themoldprofessionals/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-mold-pros-inc/

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows! This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track! Check out today's questions: Arianne: Hi Dr. Cabral, First, I want to say thank you for all of your resources! I start every day with your podcast - it is truly the best out there! My question is regarding the medication, Leucovorin, and its use in treating Autism. I have a 3 year old son who is non-verbal and is moderately Autistic. His pediatrician has prescribed Leucovorin on a titration schedule where he will be monitored for its effects. To note my own lab results, I have MTHFR, high levels of mercury and aluminum, low electrolytes/minerals, anemia/low ferritin, and gut issues - likely these were passed along to my son. I plan to have him complete the labs now that he is old enough. What is your advice on Leucovorin and its safety & efficacy, also should I be concerned with potential fillers and aluminum in the drug? Sheena: Hi Dr C! Hope you and your team are well. I was just wondering if all bovine collagen has protein in it, even if it doesn't say it on the label? And if so, does the protein count towards my daily protein intake? Thank you so much in advance for answering! Jonny: Hello Dr. Cabral, Recently done some mitochondrial testing and found that my complex 2+3 are operating at 16% activity, and complex 2 at 58%, so there unable to turn substrate into energy efficiently. I'm wondering if you have any advice. Currently dealing with CIRS, Sibo/dysbiosis/chronic stress/Trauma. Non starchy carbs make me jittery, as well as stressors in general, but it's not blood sugar, as I've worn monitors and my levels seem fairly ideal. I think it's the CIRS jitters, shakiness that I've heard you speak of. I just got your new book, so I'm going to read through that for any tips. Already taking adrenal soothe, working with a therapist, doing my best to lower the stressors in my life. I know 90-120 days for red blood cell/mitochondrial turnover, so things can take time. Thanks Anonymous: Hi Dr. Cabral, I've heard conflicting advice on cold plunging for people with high stress or adrenal dysregulation. How to you determine if cold exposure if supportive or not. Thanks! Sarah: I'm curious about histamine intolerance and allergies. why do some people suddenly develop reactions to something that haven't had all their lives. I used to not be allergic to horses for instance, I could ride them when I was younger, but now I can't even be in the same room with someone who has been around them. Thanks for your help.

Why You Should Listen: In this episode, you will learn about breakthrough therapies for chronic illness recovery including EBOO and TPE. About My Guest: My guest for this episode is Dr. Tami Lyday. Tami Lyday, DO, MS has been a physician since 2006 and a functional and integrative specialist since 2017. Prior to that, she spent 11 years as a family practitioner but was never quite satisfied with conventional medical approaches. Her mother's illness and subsequent side effects of traditional treatments prompted her to learn more about integrative medicine, and she has not looked back. Dr. Lyday believes functional and integrative medicine is the best way to ensure lasting recovery as it helps patients determine the root of their health issues and does not rely on medications that treat symptoms while ignoring the underlying causes of illness. She pursued training and certifications in functional and integrative medicine, including specialty training and certifications in the treatment of mold-related illnesses and Lyme disease. At the time of her certification, she was one of only 26 practitioners in the world who were Shoemaker certified in mold treatment protocols. After 4 years as a functional and integrative medical practitioner, she opened The Lyday Center to provide a dedicated resource for people who are suffering from mystery illnesses and ailments that don't respond to conventional treatment and are seeking natural solutions to their chronic illnesses. Since that time, she has expanded her specialties to include the treatment of thyroid disorders and overall energy levels. Her mission is to heal the world one patient at a time. Key Takeaways: How much does environmental toxicity contribute to chronic illness? How is a patient tested for mold illness? What binders are most commonly used for detoxification? Do natural binders have a place? What is the role of Actinobacteria and endotoxins in CIRS patients? Can a patient have fungal colonization and potentially benefit from antifungals? Does treating mold also treat Lyme and coinfections? How important is working on the limbic system to set the stage for healing? How might EBOO and TPE support those with autoimmunity? Where in a recovery timeline do EBOO and TPE best fit? Does Hashimoto's occur without mold? What is the role of EBOO? What is the EBOO process? What is done before and after EBOO to support the patient? Can patients have detoxification or Herxheimer reactions after EBOO or TPE? How might EBOO and TPE help those with Long COVID? What types of infections might EBOO support? What is the role of TPE? What is the TPE process? What types of toxicants and toxins can be filtered out? How is the removed plasma replaced Might beneficial materials be removed with TPE? Can EBOO or TPE help those with neurodegenerative conditions?

Feeling worse at home? It might not be “just mold.” In this episode, Juanique talks with Mike Fisher (Vital Home Solutions—aka the mold dog guy) about the REAL environmental drivers of CIRS and chronic symptoms. We break down why actinomycetes and endotoxins often outweigh mold, how to lower your total toxin load without wasting money, and exactly what to clean first for the biggest impact.What you'll learnWhy CIRS isn't only about mold (think actinomycetes & endotoxin producers)The “low-hanging fruit” that moves the needle fast: toilet tanks, window tracks, bathroom overflows, dusty HVAC roomsSafe, simple chemistry for sensitives: soap + water for mold removal; hypochlorous acid or alcohol for bacteriaHow to use negative pressure (shop-vac exhausting outdoors) so you don't re-aerosolize dustPractical tips for mattresses, pets, sheets, drains, and daily maintenanceWhy calming the nervous system matters as much as cleaningKey Takeaways & Timestamps12:50 – It's not just mold: ~7% mold, 42% actinomycetes, 28% endotoxin producers, ~23% other toxins.27:40 – Fix what hits you daily: start with toilet tanks, window tracks, bathroom overflows, HVAC dust.31:58 – Method matters: mold = remove with soap + water; bacteria = hypochlorous acid/alcohol; avoid “paint-over” shortcuts.38:50 – HVAC hygiene: keep the furnace room dust-free; vent your vac outside for negative pressure.46:46 – Fear vs. intuition: you don't need sterile—just lower the load so your body can heal.Resources & LinksCIRS Self-Assessment Quiz: provohealth.com/cirs-quizVital Home Solutions (Mike Fisher): vitalutah.com | IG: @thevitalhomesolutions & @chapmolddetectiondog | 801-657-3969Daily surface support: search for hypochlorous acid (250–300 ppm options)Skin support mentioned: Defense SoapDisclaimer: Educational only; not medical advice.

In this episode of the Gutsy Health Podcast, Juanique sits down with Dr. Brian Rodgers to shed light on CIRS (Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome) — a condition affecting up to 25% of the population. They break down what CIRS actually is, why so many people are undiagnosed, and how it can be triggered by mold, Lyme disease, spider bites, and even COVID or the COVID vaccine.Juanique and Dr. Rodgers explore how CIRS impacts the gut, brain, mitochondria, and immune system — often showing up as fatigue, anxiety, depression, hormone imbalances, brain fog, and long COVID. They also dive into the 12-step protocol for treatment, with a focus on the first three critical steps: reducing environmental triggers, using the right binders, and treating MARCoNS (nasal bacteria).The conversation is equal parts science and lived experience, with Juanique sharing her personal journey with CIRS, the overwhelm of starting treatment, and the hope that comes from taking healing step by step.Key TakeawaysCIRS is common: Around 20–25% of people carry the gene that can trigger CIRS.COVID is a trigger: Both infection and vaccination have been shown to turn on CIRS genes, often presenting as “long COVID.”Multi-system impact: CIRS disrupts neuropeptides, hormones, and mitochondria, leading to mood disorders, fatigue, leaky gut, and hormone imbalance.Children are affected differently: Kids often show fewer symptoms (headaches, anxiety, chronic infections, bedwetting) but can still carry the condition.First 3 steps matter most: Safe environment, binders (like Welchol or cholestyramine), and MARCoNS treatment are non-negotiable for healing.Healing takes time: Most patients need 12–24 months to move through the 12-step protocol, with incremental improvements along the way.Adjunctive therapies: Tools like eBOO, hyperbaric oxygen, IVs, neurofeedback, and phospholipid therapy can help “jumpstart” depleted bodies.Hope is key: Even if progress feels slow, consistent steps lower the body's toxin load and restore function over time.Chapters00:00 – Introduction & Juanique's experience with CIRS03:25 – Why so many people are undiagnosed08:09 – The hidden pandemic of CIRS and COVID as a trigger10:32 – How CIRS affects the gut, brain, mitochondria, and immune system15:18 – Children and teenagers with CIRS: symptoms to watch for20:05 – The overlap between CIRS, MCAS, and histamine intolerance27:10 – Chronic infections, asthma-like symptoms, and immune dysfunction31:57 – Step 1: Safe environment and mold remediation39:04 – Step 2: Binders and reducing the toxin load43:49 – Step 3: Treating MARCoNS and brain fog relief48:40 – Why some patients need “bigger tools” to jumpstart healing53:22 – Steps 4–12: Gut, hormones, neuropeptides, and VIP therapy58:09 – How long CIRS healing really takesLinks & ResourcesJoin the Gutsy Academy!

Part Three: The CIRS–Thyroid–Vagus Connection — How Mold & Toxins Hijack Your Body's Healing In the final part of our series, we connect the dots between CIRS (Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome), autoimmune thyroid conditions like Hashimoto's, and the often-overlooked role of the vagus nerve in healing. We'll explore: How mold toxins, chronic infections, and chemical exposures disrupt vagus nerve function and weaken your body's ability to self-regulate The link between vagal nerve toxicity, acetylcholine production, and immune system overactivation Why impaired vagus nerve signaling can worsen thyroid symptoms, slow detox pathways, and keep inflammation high Practical ways to restore vagal tone and acetylcholine levels through nutrition, lifestyle, and targeted supplements How this nerve–immune–hormone connection fits into a comprehensive CIRS and autoimmune recovery plan If you've wondered why you can “do all the right things” for your thyroid and still feel stuck, this episode will help you see how your nervous system might be the missing piece — and how to get it back online so your body can finally heal.

What if everything you've been told about mold illness is wrong? In this groundbreaking episode, Dr. Eric Dorniger reveals the truth about Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (CIRS) - a misunderstood condition that may be the real cause of millions of unexplained symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, anxiety, and autoimmune issues. Affecting millions but misdiagnosed by 99% of doctors, CIRS isn't caused by mold growing in your body, but by an overactive immune response that continues long after exposure ends. We cover five triggers: algae, seafood toxins, mold, sewer gas, and tick bites.

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… Anonymous: I had fatigue, body pain and gallstones. Taking malic acid for gallstones but pain and fatigue went away. What does it mean when malic acid eliminates body aches? Does Malic acid address root cause issues? Is malic acid safe to take while I run my big 5 labs. Nakul: Hello Dr. Cabral, I'm a big fan of your podcast and your approach to chronic health challenges. You're helping a lot of people heal - please keep up the great work. I was diagnosed with CIRS last year, which is an inflammatory response caused by a genetic predisposition to be unable to remove inhaled biotoxins (like mold and endotoxins) with the adaptive immune response. I've been dealing with reduction in vision (from what I suspect is brain inflammation caused by toxicity), and alopecia areata, in addition to food sensitivities and allergies. I've been using cholestyramine and other binders which have helped, but would love to know your thoughts and recommendations on how biotoxin illness can be treated through naturopathy. Thanks for your help! Jen: Thank you for taking my question, Dr. Cabral! I listen and learn from you every day. My question is about behavioral change at the root cause ~ This one thing in my life I desperately want to WANT to do it because it is good. And by not doing it, I am acting in a way that is incongruent with my career/mission. And that causes me much mental anguish. I know that when I am able to solve this conundrum, I will be true to myself and can help others do the same. What would be your protocol for changing behavior, not just an outward compliance, but at the very root cause/subconscious level? How thankful I am for you! I am looking forward to incorporating what I learn from you on this subject. Thank you!! Amy: Hi there. Thank you for your wealth of knowledge and insight into all things health! I have a question about microplastics in tea bags. Common knowledge is that steeping tea bags is a huge source of microplastics. I'm wondering how concerned you feel we should be about this, as I'm driving myself crazy. Some companies use unbleached tea bags that are glue free,heat sealed, and claim to be plastic free. Would those really be safer? Looking forward to any insight on how much concern a casual tea drinker should have. Grace: Hello looking for some advice regarding gum and tongue health. I am female, 26 years old. I get painful inflamation of my gums, inflammed taste buds, canker sores, and scalloped tongue. Typically these symptoms show up around my menstrual cycle and clear up in my follicular phase. I try to oil pull to help with the inflamation, ive cycled L-lysine and I have not seen any big changes in my symptoms. Also, I have a unrelated question regarding flushing of the face. I have issues of face flushing that is extreme and uncontrolable. It is not just when I may be embarassed it happens even when I talk about something passionately or am excited. I dont know why this happens and how I can control it.
