I have a friend named Laney who genuinely does not experience mom guilt. Not because she's a perfect mom, but because she's decided her kids are lucky to have her — and she means it! I used to laugh when she said things like that. But, now, after working for years on myself (I've come so far!), I understand that what I was struggling with wasn't only guilt over my shortcomings as a mom, but it was also guilt over the resentment I felt for everything I was carrying that led me to not enjoy my motherhood very much. The guilt was coming at me from every direction! If any of that sounds familiar, this episode is going to feel like a very welcome exhale. This week's guest is JoAnn Crohn, certified life coach and author of The Best Mom is a Happy Mom. She helps moms go from martyr to model, and this conversation is full of honest, practical tools for getting there. ✨ Why JoAnn's husband didn't even realize the imbalance until they did this one exercise together ✨ The "guilt equation" from a psychologist that will completely change how you think about your own expectations ✨ The thing JoAnn's therapist said that cut through all the noise and told her exactly what being a good mom actually requires If you've ever felt like the mental load of your family's life is sitting entirely on your shoulders, and if you've ever felt the guilt coming from every side, this episode is for you.

Send us Fan MailSara Herring lived with stomach pain so long she thought it was just life, then at 21 she finally got the word that changed everything: Crohn's disease. Sara joins us for a raw, funny, and unexpectedly tender conversation about what it's like to be dismissed as a kid, spend months chasing negative tests, and reach the point where you're writing goodbye letters because you're not sure you'll make it. Sara walks us through the turning points of her IBD journey, from the relief of being believed to years of medication trial and error that end in a surgery she never expected. We talk about how chronic abdominal pain can become so “normal” you don't even notice the ways you're bending, bracing, and shrinking your life around it, and why learning to describe pain can be a powerful tool for self-advocacy with doctors. Then we shift into the practice that helped her reclaim her life: a bucket list book that's part scrapbook, part journal, part proof that small moments matter. We dig into presence over perfection, creativity, therapy, boundaries with social media, and the complicated truth about remission, including the guilt that can come with feeling better while others are still in the fight. If you're searching for Crohn's disease support, IBD mental health tools, or hope that doesn't ignore reality, this one's for you. Subscribe for more real talk, share this with someone who needs it, and please leave a rating and review so more people in the IBD community can find us.Let's get social!!Follow us on Instagram!Follow us on Facebook!Follow us on Twitter!

Have you ever been told that the thing you need to get better doesn't exist on the NHS but quietly, it does?This week I'm joined by Dr. Simon Erridge, medical doctor, UCL researcher, and one of the UK's leading voices in medical cannabis. Simon has a way of cutting through the stigma and the noise and what he shares isn't about getting high.

Ilana Golant, Founder and CEO of the Food Allergy Fund, discusses the increasing prevalence and complexity of food allergies in people of all ages and the lack of research, funding, and diagnostics in this field. The Food Allergy Fund is taking a multifaceted approach to address these challenges, including funding microbiome research, exploring drug repurposing, and leveraging AI to develop better diagnostic tools.  The goal is to find a cure for food allergies to prevent life-threatening anaphylaxis and drive research into the connection between food allergies and gut and immune health. Ilana explains, "We launched a microbiome research collective recently because we really think the microbiome is the common denominator for many diseases. I mean, food allergy really no longer exists in isolation. It used to be 20 years ago, you would say someone had a peanut allergy. That patient doesn't really exist anymore. It is estimated that 40% of patients who have food allergies also have asthma, which is a significant comorbidity, but their other diseases overlap with Crohn's, juvenile diabetes, and atopic dermatitis, among others."   "We really think of food allergy as the canary in the coal mine for lifelong gut and immune health, and what the microbiome dysregulation could mean not only for food allergy, but for broader gut health. And so as part of our Microbiome Collective, we're right now funding studies at six different research institutions across the country to try to figure out what this gut dysbiosis means for food allergy and much more." #FoodAllergyFund #FoodAllergyResearch #FoodAllergyAwareness #Biotech #Immunology #PatientAdvocacy #HealthcareInnovation #FoodAllergy #Microbiome #AIinHealthcare #DrugRepurposing #AllergyResearch #Anaphylaxis #PrecisionMedicine #EmpoweredPatient foodallergyfund.org  Listen to the podcast here

It's the 22nd anniversary of Marvin Heemeyer's killdozer rampage through Granby, Colorado, and Frank welcomes back Jay to walk the timeline. Two acres at auction, a concrete plant blocking his access, a check stamped "cowards," and a year of secret welding inside a Komatsu D355A. The episode threads George Bernard Shaw, John Adams on studying war, and JFK on peaceful revolution into a single question: how unreasonable do good men have to be willing to get? From there, the grievances stack. New York is replacing mother and father with "gestating parent" on official documents. A Canadian doctor allegedly assessed a 45 year old man with Crohn's for medically assisted death in a Tim Hortons parking lot, then forgot a drug from the cocktail and the patient briefly came back to life. Oregon wants to ban hunting and fishing in a state with no late term abortion limit. AJ from Twitch calls in to ask where the line actually is. Frank reads excerpts from the Unabomber manifesto, Jay pushes back on Kaczynski's tidy leftist conservative dichotomy, and the night closes with sperm whales speaking Chinese.

Was the Poltergeist curse real, or did the world get Heather O'Rourke's story wrong for 38 Years?On February 1, 1988, Heather O'Rourke died at twelve years old. For nearly four decades the world has filled that silence with rumors. She Was Here, the new documentary produced by Brian Pocrass and directed by Nick Bailey, is the first authorized account of what actually happened, told by Heather's mother Kathleen, her sister Tammy, and the people who knew and worked with her.In Episode 279, Christian sits down with producer Brian Pocrass to talk about how She Was Here came together, what it cost to earn the trust of a grieving family that had been burned by Hollywood for nearly four decades, and why he believes Heather's death was completely preventable. Brian is a USC Film School graduate with fifteen years in the entertainment industry who later became an attorney. He calls this his first documentary.At the heart of She Was Here is a question Brian poses to himself as a producer: how much oxygen do you give a lie? Heather's death from a misdiagnosed intestinal condition, treated as Crohn's disease, became, in the tabloid press of the late 1980s, the foundation of what came to be called the Poltergeist curse. Brian's film is a working filmmaker's answer to that question, anchored in legal depositions, family archives, and the testimony of the people who loved her. It is also, as he tells Christian, a film about loss.IN THIS EPISODE, YOU'LL LEARN:Why Heather O'Rourke's family broke nearly four decades of silence to participate in She Was HereHow a misdiagnosis took Heather's life at twelve, and what her mother wants every parent to know about medical decisionsHow the Poltergeist curse rumor started, and why Heather's family is finally telling the real storyWhat it actually takes to earn the trust of a grieving family that has been burned by Hollywood for thirty-eight yearsWhy Brian Pocrass, a USC Film School graduate, returned to filmmaking after a fifteen-year career and a transition to lawHow Brian used his legal background to read sealed depositions from the 1991 lawsuit and uncover the real storyWhy directors like Gary Sherman and stars like Craig T. Nelson and JoBeth Williams broke their "Heather Shield" silence for this filmThe first-hand account of the Poltergeist III set explosion in Chicago, told by an eyewitness who was thereHow Brian defines the "illusion of documentary filmmaking" and the rhythm that holds a non-fiction story togetherThe Steven Spielberg interview Brian could not get, and why he is willing to talk about it publiclyThe documentary Brian could not stop thinking about, his DocuView Déjà Vu pickCHAPTERS00:00 Her Death Was Completely Preventable: The Heart of She Was Here00:29 Welcome to Documentary First with Christian Taylor00:52 Meet Brian Pocrass: USC Film School Grad and She Was Here Producer02:25 The Childhood Crush That Fueled a Documentary07:11 The Tipping Point: Why Brian Made the Film09:48 Earning the O'Rourke Family's Trust After an Initial No12:40 The Full Circle Moment: Setting Heather Free14:52 Did Heather's Mom and Sister Feel Heard15:27 Craig T.

The cause was septic shock from an acute bowel obstruction, ultimately traced to a congenital intestinal abnormality that had been misdiagnosed as Crohn's disease. The misdiagnosis is the central tragedy of She Was Here — producer Brian Pocrass calls her death "completely preventable" with the correct diagnosis and a simple surgery. The film's authorized account ends decades of conspiracy speculation about her death.Is the Poltergeist curse real?The "Poltergeist curse" is a tabloid-era rumor that grew from the deaths of four Poltergeist trilogy cast members across the 1980s. Heather O'Rourke's family, who appear throughout She Was Here, reject the curse narrative as a painful misrepresentation of their daughter and sister. The documentary presents the authorized medical and legal record: Heather's death was a misdiagnosed congenital condition, not a curse.Where can I watch the Heather O'Rourke documentary?She Was Here is available to stream on Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV, and Fandango at Home. The 85-minute documentary was released on February 24, 2026, distributed in the United States by Virgil Films Entertainment and internationally by Indiecan Entertainment. It is directed by Nick Bailey and produced by Brian Pocrass, Reese Eveneshen, and Avi Federgreen.What is the She Was Here documentary about?She Was Here is the authorized biographical documentary of Heather O'Rourke, the child actress who played Carol Anne in the Poltergeist trilogy and died at twelve in 1988. The 85-minute film features unprecedented access to her family's diaries, letters, and home videos, plus interviews with Craig T.

She was a Chicago Honey Bear during the 1979 to 1980 NFL season, and during that time guest-starred on the Emmy-winning television show You're Never Too Old. After her time on the sidelines, Carolyn opened a full-service salon at Mid America Plaza in Oak Brook, Illinois, the very building where Poltergeist III filmed its underground garage scenes. She was on the first floor when the on-set explosion happened and gives an eyewitness account in this...

If you have ever felt uneasy about a prescription but could not quite explain why, this episode is for you. Not because the goal is to scare you, but because you deserve to understand how the system actually works — from someone who worked inside it for years. Welcome I am a Registered Nurse and Christian holistic health coach, and before I ever coached women toward natural healing, I spent years inside the pharmaceutical industry working in drug safety and pharmacovigilance. I processed the reports. I saw the conflicts of interest. And eventually, I became the patient. This episode is for the Christian woman who has been dismissed, medicated, and sent home with a prescription and zero real answers. The woman who suspects there is a better way but does not know where to start. If that is you, keep listening. What the Drug Approval Process Actually Looks Like Most people assume that by the time a drug reaches your pharmacist, it has been tested on hundreds of thousands of people over decades. The reality is more sobering. Before a drug is approved, it goes through clinical trials. For your average drug, the median total number of participants across all clinical trials before FDA approval is 1,708 people. For orphan drugs — drugs created for rare diseases — that number drops to a median of 438 participants. That is the data your doctor's prescription is based on. The Conflict of Interest Nobody Talks About Here is what most people outside the industry do not know. When a patient has an adverse event during a clinical trial, a report gets sent to the drug safety department. A physician is then required to determine whether or not the drug caused that event. But that physician works for — or is contracted by — the pharmaceutical company. The chief medical officer, the person setting the tone for how reports are assessed, has a financial stake in the outcome. Even the most ethical physician in that position faces a fundamental conflict of interest. And in some cases, if the clinical trial investigator — the doctor actually watching the patient — determines the drug caused the adverse event, the pharmaceutical company's physician can override that assessment entirely. The Human Factor Inside the System The people who work in drug safety are largely detail-oriented, hardworking, and genuinely care about patient outcomes. That matters and it is worth saying. But the system itself has real limitations. High turnover rates mean institutional knowledge walks out the door constantly. Clinical trial teams spread across the globe sometimes do not understand their own reporting obligations. Physicians reviewing dozens of nearly identical reports daily are fighting boredom and burnout. And patients taking 10, 15, or even 30 medications at once make causality nearly impossible to determine with any real certainty. The science is not as clean as the packaging suggests. After FDA Approval — The Data Gets Even Thinner Once a drug is on the market, the primary way a pharmaceutical company learns about safety issues is through voluntary reports — from you or your doctor. Most patients have never heard of a pharmacovigilance department. Most healthcare professionals do not know they can or should be reporting adverse events directly to pharmaceutical companies. That means the post-market safety data is largely dependent on a system most people do not know exists. Vioxx is the example that opened this episode. FDA approved. Widely prescribed. Pulled from the market after data showed an increased risk of heart attacks and strokes. The clinical trials passed. The stamp of approval was given. And people were still harmed. What This Means for Your Health Decisions None of this means every pharmaceutical product is dangerous or that every person working in the industry has bad intentions. That is not the point. The point is discernment. The safety profile of the drug you may be taking rests heavily on the worldview of one chief medical officer at one pharmaceutical company, filtered through a reporting system most people have never heard of, built on a data set far smaller than most people realize. That is not a conspiracy. That is just how the system is structured. Why God Must Come First My friend had Crohn's disease for roughly 15 years. One day she was healed. Her doctor's response? It must be that you never had Crohn's disease in the first place. That response reveals everything about a worldview that cannot make room for healing outside of its own framework. God is not limited by what the data set allows. He is not constrained by what the chief medical officer approves. His wisdom is complete, and He designed your body with purpose and precision. I am not here to get you off your medications. I am not here to tell you pharmaceutical companies are entirely bad. My mission is simpler and more important than that — to encourage you to go to God first. To seek His wisdom before you outsource your health to a system that was never designed to heal you. As one of my dear friends shared with me for my book, Discover God's Health Wisdom: Science and knowledge are gifts from the Almighty One, yet they are not God. When we believe the deception that academia, research, and humanity's partial understanding is more powerful than the One who created it all, then it controls us and leaves us susceptible to more deception. Time-Stamped Highlights 0:01 — The Vioxx story: what it reveals about FDA approval and drug safety 1:00 — What pharmacovigilance is and why most people have never heard of it 3:51 — The good inside the system: the people who genuinely care 4:17 — The chaotic human factor and the God complex in conventional medicine 7:08 — The conflict of interest at the heart of drug safety assessments 9:29 — The clinical trial data sets: how many people a drug is actually tested on 11:22 — Post-market reporting and why the data gets thinner after approval 13:15 — Why comorbidities and polypharmacy make causality nearly impossible to assess 16:31 — How a physician's worldview shapes the safety conclusions of an entire drug program 17:56 — The invitation: go to God first for your health Key Takeaways Drug approvals are based on smaller data sets than most people assume — medians of 1,708 participants for standard drugs and 438 for orphan drugs across all clinical trials The physician determining whether a drug caused an adverse event often works directly for the pharmaceutical company — a structural conflict of interest Post-market safety data depends largely on voluntary reporting from patients and doctors, most of whom do not know the system exists The science is real and has genuine value — but it is incomplete, human, and subject to bias like every other human system Seeking God's wisdom first does not mean rejecting medicine; it means approaching your health with discernment rather than blind trust True lasting healing is possible — and God's design for your body is more complete than any clinical trial Ready to Stop Outsourcing Your Health? If this episode stirred something in you — if you have been wondering whether there is a better path forward for your energy, your autoimmune symptoms, or your overall health — I want to invite you to book a More Energy Strategy Session with me.

A Brand New Tool for Gut, Inflammation, and Brain Support: Holistic practitioner Jane Jansen details Essential Formulas' Dr. Ohhira's Postbiotic Fermented Food Concentrate, a non-GMO, gluten-free, dairy-free, capsule-free fermented paste in travel-friendly, non-refrigerated sachets. She explains the difference between probiotics and postbiotics, emphasizing that this concentrate delivers postbiotic metabolites (including short-chain fatty acids like butyrate, plus enzymes, amino acids, vitamins, peptides, and growth/repair factors) created via a five-year fermentation of 14 fruits, vegetables, mushrooms, and seaweeds; the paste contains no live probiotics because they are heat-killed. The discussion highlights use cases for people who don't tolerate fiber or probiotics (IBS, SIBO, Crohn's, ulcerative colitis), potential benefits for leaky gut, systemic inflammation, gut-brain/mitochondrial health, insulin resistance, children, and pets, and suggests it can complement Dr. Ohhira's capsules and may be taken less than daily.

It can feel confusing when it comes to figure out food intolerances in IBD - but there is so much more to the conversation that isn't really talked about much online like....⏰ Timing - if you are getting symptoms immediately after eating a food (like bloating or racing to the bathroom) it might not actually be the food itself - but it can still be data that we can use to drive nutrition recommendations.

In this soulful and expansive episode, Anna speaks with Noga Shefi — musician, healer, and guide for sensitive creatives — about what it means to heal, create, and live from a regulated, intuitive, embodied place.Noga's personal story is profound. After being diagnosed with Crohn's disease in 2010 and told she'd be suffering for life, she embarked on a deep healing journey that took her far beyond conventional medicine. From gut-brain healing to meditation retreats, from subtle energy work to dreamwork, from nervous system regulation to spiritual study — Noga followed her sensitivity inward and found a path to healing.Now she brings that wisdom to other creatives and sensitives who want to grow, create, and serve without burning out.In this episode, we explore:• What it's like to balance being a musician and a healer• How creativity feeds healing — and how healing expands creativity• The double-edged sword of being a sensitive creative (and how Noga navigates her own sensitivity)• Why sensitivity is not a liability, but an intelligence• How to recognize the early signs of emotional or nervous system overwhelm• The tools Noga uses daily to regulate, reset, and ground• The healing modalities that supported her Crohn's remission — and that she now shares with clients• What it means to live from intuition rather than fear• Her favorite practices for supporting sensitive creatives in their path of transformationThis is a grounding, nourishing, deeply validating conversation for anyone who identifies as sensitive, intuitive, creative, or easily overwhelmed — and who wants to learn to work with their sensitivity instead of against it.

Constipation is a huge pain in the ass...  and if you're not having at least 1 to 2 bowel movements a day, you're on the "constipation spectrum." Long term opioid use, antidepressants, anti-anxiety medications, and the newer weight loss drugs like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro all slow your gut and put you on the same path that killed Elvis Presley.  So does chronic stress, mold exposure, parasites, and the kind of inflammation that drives most cases of IBS, Crohn's, and ulcerative colitis.   TOPICS DISCUSSED: Defining constipation What actually causes it Why doctors miss the root cause The risks of long term constipation  How to fix constipation naturally   If you have Crohn's, Colitis or Diverticulitis, be sure to check out my second podcast: Reversing Crohn's and Colitis Naturally.   Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?

Send us Fan MailFive years post J-pouch surgery sounds like a finish line, but our bodies do not read the brochure. We're together in person for a live catch-up with our favorite recurring guest and IBD Registered Dietitian, Stacey Collins, and we get real about what changes with time and what still blindsides you when you live with a J-Pouch after IBD.We talk through the wins that matter most day to day: more capacity, less urgency, and the quiet joy of doing normal things without panic, like waiting in line, taking long road trips, hiking, skiing, and traveling. Then we dig into the stuff patients whisper about but rarely get warned about, especially gas pain. We break down what it feels like, why it can block emptying, what actually helps (yes, including “toilet yoga”), and why travel, altitude, fasting, dehydration, carbonation, and food additives can make symptoms spike.We also cover the scary gray zones: when symptoms feel like a Crohn's flare but turn out to be SIBO, why antibiotics may be part of J-pouch life, and how to rebuild the gut microbiome afterward with food you can tolerate. Finally, we get blunt about the “surgery is curative” myth, the need for ongoing monitoring (iron deficiency anemia, B12, folate, fatigue), and what better post-op care should look like, including pelvic floor physical therapy and honest expectations at 3, 6, and 12 months.If you found this helpful, subscribe, share it with someone who needs it, and leave a review.

Could lupus and Sjögren's symptoms improve in just weeks with the right diet and lifestyle changes? Dr. Brooke Goldner joins Chuck Carroll to share the remarkable stories of patients with autoimmune disease who experienced dramatic recoveries after following her Goodbye Autoimmune Disease protocol. This conversation is especially personal for me. There are people close to me who have struggled for decades with many of the same issues Dr. Goldner and I discuss in this interview. I shared this episode with one of them before releasing it publicly, and they were blown away by what she had to say. Dr. Goldner discusses her 2024 case series involving three women with both lupus and Sjögren's syndrome who reported symptom remission within weeks after following a raw, whole-food, plant-based nutrition protocol. She also shares her own story of being diagnosed with aggressive lupus as a teenager, facing kidney failure and mini strokes, and later living symptom-free for more than 20 years.

In this powerful episode of the What Are You Made Of? show, host Mike “C-Roc” sits down with Dr. Jill Carnahan, a board-certified family physician and integrative medicine expert, to explore the deep connection between physical health, emotional healing, and human connection. Known for her work in functional and holistic medicine, Dr. Jill brings both clinical expertise and lived experience as a survivor of breast cancer, Crohn's disease, and toxic mold illness—offering a rare, grounded perspective on what it truly takes to heal complex chronic conditions.The conversation goes far beyond conventional medicine as Dr. Jill explains how “grace” and self-compassion are often the missing foundations in healing. She shares how unresolved trauma, childhood patterns, emotional stress, and lack of self-love can manifest as physical illness, and why creating a “safe, sacred space” for patients is central to her practice. Together, Mike 'C-Roc" and Dr. Jill unpack how toxic load, infectious burden, and chronic stress impact the immune system, why loneliness has become one of the most overlooked health risk factors, and how modern life amplifies disease through disconnection. They also dive into emerging topics like GLP-1 microdosing, inflammation, and the evolving role of functional medicine in a world of increasing complexity. This episode is a compelling reminder that true healing begins from within—where science, mindset, and grace meet.Website-www.jillcarnahan.com Social Media Links/Handles:https://www.facebook.com/FlatironFunctionalMedicinehttps://www.instagram.com/drjillcarnahan/https://www.linkedin.com/in/jillcarnahan//https://www.youtube.com/@DrJillCarnahan

Told donor eggs after failed IVF? There is a category of testing that your fertility clinic does not run. We rarely run a stool test and find nothing. The IVF cycle did not work. Maybe it was poor response. Maybe it was canceled before retrieval. Maybe you got embryos and they arrested. Maybe the transfer failed. Your clinic looked at your numbers and told you donor eggs. In this episode, Sarah Clark walks through the gut pattern the Fab Fertile team sees in women who come to us after failed IVF with a donor egg recommendation, and why this pattern changes the picture before the next decision. What this episode covers: H. pylori. One of the most common findings in the women who come to us after failed IVF. It impairs absorption of iron, vitamin B12, and zinc, the nutrients that affect egg quality, thyroid function, and hormone production. It is passed back and forth between partners through saliva. If you have it, there is a strong chance your partner has it too. Parasites, giardia, blastocystis. Common findings. Rarely tested at the fertility clinic. Bacterial overgrowth, including streptococcus. Fungal overgrowth and dysbiosis. The reason chasing an anti-candida diet without testing moves you in circles. Elevated calprotectin. A signal of gut inflammation, often present in women with IBD, Crohn's, colitis, and women with no formal diagnosis. Elevated zonulin. A marker of intestinal permeability. The pattern we see after rounds of antibiotics, sinus infections, UTIs, birth control, and high stress. Why this matters before a donor egg decision: H. pylori impairs iron absorption. Ferritin reads low or low-normal. The clinic says iron is fine because the lab range starts around 15. The fertility-optimized range is closer to 50. Iron is foundational to egg quality. The oxygen carrying capacity to your follicles depends on it. B12 affects methylation, the process your body uses to produce the co-factors needed for egg maturation. Zinc affects ovulation and progesterone production. Chronic gut inflammation affects ovarian response to stimulation, implantation, and miscarriage risk. When your clinic looks at a canceled cycle, arrested embryos, or a failed transfer and recommends donor eggs, they are responding to the outcome. They are not asking what is driving the outcome. This episode is for the woman sitting with a donor egg recommendation who is not ready to agree before she understands what was actually evaluated. Next steps: Access the free guide: What Your Clinic Missed. It walks through the markers we review before a donor egg recommendation, including the thyroid panel, the iron panel with the fertility target, the gut testing your REI does not order, the inflammatory markers, and the male side.

If you have autoimmune disease, you've probably been told to keep an eye on your bone density number. But here's the thing — that number only predicts fractures in about 44% of women with osteoporosis. Most of what's actually driving your fracture risk isn't showing up on that scan. I brought Dr. John Neustadt back to talk about his newly expanded book, Fracture-Proof Your Bones, and this conversation goes well beyond what we covered last time. We get into how gut inflammation — the kind that comes with autoimmunity, leaky gut, Crohn's, or celiac — directly triggers bone loss through inflammatory cytokines that activate the cells that break down bone. We also talk about the medications most doctors aren't warning you about (SSRIs, prednisone, PPIs) and how they're silently destroying bone tissue. Plus: what your diet is actually doing to your skeleton, a simple 10-second balance test that predicts fracture risk better than a bone scan, the surprising link between oxytocin and your osteoblasts, and which routine labs to ask for that most people never get. People with autoimmune disease face a 200–400% increased fracture risk. That's the reality — but there's a lot you can do about it.

This episode was sponsored by Cardiff & Energized Health   LightSpeed VT: https://www.lightspeedvt.com/ Dropping Bombs Podcast: https://www.droppingbombs.com/ Today's Dropping Bombs episode features John Jubilee — health researcher and creator of the 88-Day Protocol who, at 65 years old, just set a world record bench pressing 555 pounds 14 times. He's spent 29 years measuring over 50,000 people, and in all that time, hasn't even found five who were properly hydrated.   John breaks down why drinking more water isn't solving anything, why cellular dehydration is the root cause of virtually every illness and disease (from Lyme and Crohn's to ED, low testosterone, joint degeneration, and hormone imbalances), and the simple protocol that's reversing what doctors call irreversible.   If you're tired of being told to manage your symptoms and ready to actually fix the root cause, this is the episode you've been waiting for.    

Ileocolic resection is one of the most common operations performed for Crohn's disease, yet the optimal approach to anastomotic construction and mesenteric management remains an active area of debate. From the configuration of the anastomosis to the extent of mesenteric excision, emerging evidence suggests that surgical technique may play a meaningful role in disease outcomes. Join Drs.

Dr. Deb Muth 00:04What if the future of healing isn’t about replacing cells, but about teaching your body how to heal itself again? We keep hearing the words stem cells and exoomes thrown around like they’re interchangeable, but they’re not. One is regulated, controversial, and often misunderstood. The other is rapidly emerging as one of the most exciting communication systems in human biology. Dr. Deb Muth 00:33And here’s the real question no one’s asking. Are we actually regenerating tissue or are we just stimulating the body to remember how it used to heal? Tired of being told your labs are normal, but you still feel terrible? At Serenity Healthcare Center, we don’t chase symptoms. We find the root cause. hormones, gut health, autoimmune conditions, chronic fatigue, brain fog. Dr. Deb Muth 01:02We use cuttingedge functional and regenerative medicine to get you real answers and a real path forward. This isn’t your average doctor’s office. This is medicine the way it was meant to be practiced. You deserve to feel like yourself again. Visit serenityhealthcarecenter.com to book your appointment today. Let us help you heal from the inside out. Dr. Deb Muth 01:28Welcome back to Let’s Talk Wellness Now. I’m Dr. Deb, your host. And if you’ve been following regenerative medicine, you’ve probably noticed the confusion. Patients are asking me every week, are exoomes stem cells? Are stem cells legal in the United States? I heard the FDA is shutting down all these clinics. Can I even get this therapy? Do I have to leave the country for treatment? Today, we’re cutting through the noise. This episode is not hype. Dr. Deb Muth 01:54It’s not sales. It’s education so you can understand the science, the regulatory reality, and the clinical difference between stem cell therapy and exoome therapy. And here’s what I want you to know right up front. Yes, these therapies are being used in the United States every single day. Yes, they’re being offered by highly trained physicians in integrative and regenerative medicine clinics across the country. Dr. Deb Muth 02:22Some are being used in FDA registered clinical trials. Some are being used in observational studies and some are being used in clinical practice under physician discretion. The landscape is nuanced and you deserve to understand it. So, grab your cup of coffee or tea and settle in for a deep dive into the most understood therapies in regenerative medicine. Dr. Deb Muth 02:43what they actually are, how they work, the regulatory landscape, and how they might support your body’s natural healing capacity. Let’s talk wellness now. So, let me start by asking you something. When you hear the word stem cell, what do you picture? Most people imagine damaged tissues magically regenerating or a torn meniscus growing back, cartilage reforming it into an arthritic joint or damaged brain tissue being replaced with healthy new beautiful cells. It’s a beautiful vision. Dr. Deb Muth 03:15And while it’s not quite that simple, the reality is actually more sophisticated and honestly more beautiful. Stem cells are powerful and they absolutely work, but the way they work and the mechanism by which they support healing is far more elegant and more so than most people really understand. And if you’re going to invest in regenerative therapy, you deserve to understand what you’re actually receiving. Dr. Deb Muth 03:44So, let’s start at the beginning. What are stem cells? At their core, stem cells are undifferentiated cells. That means they haven’t yet decided what they want to be when they grow up. Unlike a heart cell or a skin cell or a bone cell which have already committed to a specific function, stem cells exist in this beautiful state of potential. Dr. Deb Muth 04:05They have two remarkable abilities. First, they can self-renew. They can make copies of themselves, maintaining a reserve of these powerful cells throughout your lifetime. Second, they can differentiate under the right conditions. They can transform into specialized cell types. Bone cells, cartilage cells, nerve cells, muscle cells, even blood cells. Dr. Deb Muth 04:27This is why they’ve captured the imagination of the medical world. The potential is extraordinary. Now, there are several types of stem cells and understanding the differences matters tremendously for both understanding how they work and understanding how they’re regulated. Adult mezzenymal stem cells. We call these MSC’s are the most commonly used regenerative medicine. Dr. Deb Muth 04:54These come from bone marrow, atapost tissue, that’s fat, and other adult sources. They’re what we can call multi-potent, meaning they can become several types of cells, but not every type. A bone marrow stem cell isn’t going to become a brain cell, for instance. It has potential but it’s directed potential. Dr. Deb Muth 05:19Then we have perinatal stem cells. These come from umbilical cord blood cord tissue or something called Wharton’s jelly which is the gelatinous substance inside the umbilical cord. These cells are younger, more potent, and research by Weiss and colleagues published in stem cells back in 2006 showed that Wharton’s jelly derived MSC’s have superior proliferation and differentiation potential compared to bone marrow derived cells. Dr. Deb Muth 05:48They’re like comparing a 20-year-old athlete to a 50-year-old athlete. Both can perform, but one has more reserve capacity, more vigor, and more regenerative potential. And this isn’t this is very important because the perinatal sources umbilical cord tissue Wharton’s jelly amniotic tissue these are what many regenerative medicine clinics in the United States are using today and they’re using them because these tissues are incredibly rich in not just stem cells but growth factors cytoines and exoomes. Dr. Deb Muth 06:21Then there are embryionic stem cells. These are pur potent and they become any cell type in the body, but they’re highly regulated, ethically controversial, and honestly, they’re not being used in clinical practice in the United States outside of the very specific FDA approved research trials. Dr. Deb Muth 06:41So, when clinics talk about stem cell therapy, they’re almost never talking about embryionic stem cells. Now, here’s where it gets interesting and this is the part that changes everything about how we understand regenerative medicine. When you receive stem cell therapy, let’s say someone injects umbilical cord derived messenymal stem cells into your arthritic knee, those cells do not typically engraft or become new tissue in any permanent way. Dr. Deb Muth 07:12They don’t set up shop in your joint and start cracking out new cartilage cells for the rest of your life. So what are they actually doing then? Well, in 2011, researchers Arnold Arnold Kaplan and Dennis Korea published a landmark paper in stem cells translational medicine that fundamentally changed how we understand MSC therapy. Dr. Deb Muth 07:35They proposed that we should stop calling memal stem cells and start calling them medicinal signaling cells. Why? Well, because their primary therapeutic benefit doesn’t come from what they become. It comes from what they secrete. Think of stem cells as incredibly sophisticated biological pharmacies. When you inject them into damaged tissue, that arthritic knee, that inflamed autoimmune condition, that injured brain, that don’t just sit there passively, they sense the environment. Dr. Deb Muth 08:07They detect inflammation. They recognize the tissue damage and they understand that the immune dysregulation is present and they see that and respond. They start pumping out hundreds of bioactive molecules, growth factors that tell your cells to repair and rebuild, cytoines that modulate inflammation, chemocines that recruit your body’s own healing cells to the area. Dr. Deb Muth 08:32And these tiny membranes bound packages called extracellular vesicles, including exosomes, which we’re going to talk about extensively today as well. These secreted factors are giving instructions to your native cells. They’re saying, “Let’s reduce inflammation. Let’s modulate your immune response. Let’s promote angioenesis. Dr. Deb Muth 08:53” That’s the formation of new blood vessels, bringing nutrients and oxygen. Let’s stimulate your own resident stem cells to wake up and get to work. Reduce cell death in damaged tissue and restore normal cellular function. This is called paracrine signaling. It’s the cellto cell communication. And this is where the real therapeutic power lives. Dr. Deb Muth 09:14The stem cells themselves, many of them die within days to weeks, but the cascade of healing they trigger, the signals they send, the programs they activate in your own cells, those effects can last for months or even years. Now, this understanding is crucial because it explains why both stem cell therapy and exoo therapy can be effective. Dr. Deb Muth 09:38The stem cells are powerful not because they become new tissue but because of the signals they send and exoomes are those signals isolated and concentrated. The biggest misconception in regenerative medicine is that stem cells replace tissue and in reality they coach healing more than they become healing. They’re biological educators teaching your body to remember how it used to heal before chronic inflammation, toxicity, and disease turned off all those programs. Dr. Deb Muth 10:12So if stem cells don’t exactly end graft and become the new tissue, if their power is in their signaling and then next logical question is why do we need the cells at all? Well, if we could isolate the messengers themselves, what if we could deliver just the communication systems without any of the complexity of the living cells? Well, that’s exactly what exosomes are. Dr. Deb Muth 10:38And they represent the cutting edge of regenerative medicine. So, let me paint you a picture of how cells actually communicate. Because for most medical history, we had it wrong. For decades, textbooks taught us that cells talk to each other in two basic ways. through direct contact like shaking hands or releasing signaling molecules that floated through the extracellular space like messages in bottles, simple chemical messages. Dr. Deb Muth 11:09But in the 1980s and 90s, researchers started discovering something far more sophisticated. cells were releasing these tiny membrane bound packages like a biological FedEx envelope kind of you know it was filled with complex specific cargo and these packages could travel through the blood cross the barriers that normally keep things out like bloodb brain barrier and deliver their contents to distant cells with remarkable precision. Dr. Deb Muth 11:38These are called extracellular vesicles. And exoomes are one of the most therapeutic important types. So what exactly are exosomes? Well, they’re nanosized vesicles, typically 30 to 150 nanome in diameter. To put that into perspective, a human hair is about 100,000 nanometers wide. These are incredible and most impossibly tiny. Dr. Deb Muth 12:09They’re released by virtually all cells in the body, but the most therapeutically interesting exoomes come from mezenymal stem cells. And those medicinal signaling cells we just discussed. And according to a landmark review of Raposo and Stervogal, they published in the journal of cell biology in 2013, exoomes are not cellular debris. They’re not waste products. Dr. Deb Muth 12:35They are precisely engineered communication vesicles or vehicles. Think of them as sophisticated delivery systems carefully packed, carefully labeled, and sent to specific destinations. very specific instructions. Inside each of these exoomes, you’ll find an incredibly sophisticated payload. They are microRNAs. These are small RNA molecules that can literally turn genes off or on in the recipient cells. Dr. Deb Muth 13:06They can tell a cell to start making more collagen, to reduce inflammatory proteins, to activate repair programs that have been shut down by chronic disease for a very long time. There are messenger RNAs, actual templates for protein production. And exoome can deliver these instructions for making healing proteins. There are proteins themselves, growth factors, cytoines, enzymes, all the molecular tools a cell needs to heal. Dr. Deb Muth 13:34And there are lipids, specialized fats that help the exoome membrane fuse with targeted cells, delivering the cargo inside. When an exoome reaches its target cell, it can either fuse the cell membrane and deliver its contents directly inside like a Trojan horse, or it can bind to surface receptors and trigger signaling cascades, setting off a chain reaction of healing responses. Dr. Deb Muth 14:01Either way, it’s delivering very specific targeted instruction. And here’s what makes this so powerful. Those instructions are tailored to what this recipient cell actually needs. So, let me give you some concrete examples of what the research actually shows because this is where it really gets exciting. When researchers inject MSC derived exoomes into hearts that had experienced eskeeia, reprofusion, injury, that’s damaged blood flow being cut off and then being restored. Dr. Deb Muth 14:36Kind of like what happens during a heart attack. Something remarkable happened. A study by Lei and colleagues published in stem cell research in 2010 showed that exoomes significantly reduced the size of the damaged area, reduced inflammatory cytoines that drive tissue destruction and promoted tissue repair signaling. The exoomes were telling the heart cells stop the inflammatory cascade, activate your survival programs and repair the damage. Dr. Deb Muth 15:06In cartilage research, tow and colleagues published work in biioaterials in 2017 showing that exosomes derived from MSC’s could promote cartilage regeneration in osteoarthritis models. And the exoomes carried specific microRNAs that told condondroytes cartilage cells to proliferate and make more extracellular matrix, the structural framework of healthy cartilage. Dr. Deb Muth 15:30for autoimmune conditions. Research by Blazic and colleagues in Frontiers in Immunology in 2014 demonstrated that MSC derived exoomes could shift immune cell behavior from pro pro-inflammatory to regulatory. They could take an overactive self-attacking immune system and restore balance and promote tolerance. And perhaps most exciting brain research, a study by Zinn and colleagues published in the journal of extracellular vesicles in 2013 showed that MSC derived exoomes could cross the bloodb brain barrier. Dr. Deb Muth 16:07That protective shield around your brain that normally keep things out and promote neurological recovery in stroke models. They reduced brain inflammation, promoted neuroplasticity, supported the formation of neural connections, and for mitochondrial dysfunction, which underlies so many chronic conditions, Morrison and colleagues published research and scientific reports in 2017 showing that MSC derived exoomes can actually deliver functional mitochondria or mitochondrial components to damaged cells. They’re not Dr. Deb Muth 16:40just sending instructions, they’re sending spare parts. They’re restoring the cellular powerhouses to produce energy. So why are exoomes fundamentally different from stem cells? Well, exoomes contain no living cells. They can’t replicate. They can’t end graph. And they have virtually no risk of immune rejection or tumor formation. Dr. Deb Muth 17:03Concerns that exist elevate rarely with cellular therapies. They’re essentially biological software updates for your cells. As Fineian Pitiger wrote in their seinal review in stem cells in 2017, MSC derived exoomes represent the active ingredient of stem cell therapy delivered in a cellfree format. That’s the key insight in the in the therapeutic benefit of stem cells and it comes from what they excrete. Dr. Deb Muth 17:33Then exoomes are the secretion isolated, concentrated, and standardized. From a practical clinical standpoint, exoomes offer several compelling advantages. First, consistency. Because exoomes can be isolated, characterized, and standardized, each dose can be remarkably consistent. With living stem cells, there’s variability based on donor age, health status, processing methods, and one batch may be robust, but another might be weaker. Dr. Deb Muth 18:05With exoomes, you can measure the content, measure the potency, and ensure the quality control. Second is storage. Exoomes can be liophalized. They can be freeze-dried and stored at room temperature or refrigerated for extended periods. Stem cells require cryopreserv preservation, careful freezing, careful thawing. They’re fragile. Dr. Deb Muth 18:31Exoomes are remarkably stable. And third, their safety profile. Without living cells, the risk of adverse imunological reactions is dramatically lower. You’re not introducing foreign cells that your immune system might recognize and attack. You’re introducing molecular messages. Fourth is scalability. You can harvest millions, even billions of exoomes from stem cell cultures without ever injecting the cells themselves. Dr. Deb Muth 19:01And you can produce large quantities, standardize them, and make them available to patients. Now, there is a caution here in doing this. The scalability can produce rogue cells, and we want to be cautious of that. So, here’s what I need you to understand. Exoomes don’t force healing. They remind the body how healing works. Dr. Deb Muth 19:24They’re not replacing damaged cells. They’re re-educating the cells you already have. They’re turning back time on the biological programs that got turned off by inflammation, toxicity, trauma, time, and chronic disease. Your body knows how to heal. It’s done its entire life. Every cut that closed, every bone that mended, every infection you fought off, your body orchestrated that healing. Dr. Deb Muth 19:51The problem is that chronic disease, chronic inflammation, toxic exposures, poor nutrition, stress, all of these things disrupt the communication networks that coordinate healing. And exoomes restore that communication. They’re like rebooting a computer that’s frozen. They reset the system and remind it how it’s supposed to function. All right. Dr. Deb Muth 20:14So, this would not be complete if we didn’t talk about regulation because this is where a lot of confusion exists. And I want you to be given a real picture. Not fear-mongering, not pretending. There aren’t regulatory considerations, but the actual practical reality of how regenerative medicine is practiced in the United States today. Dr. Deb Muth 20:38Here’s what you need to understand. The FDA regulates these therapies and they have specific frameworks, but there’s important nuances between regulatory text enforcement priorities and actual clinical practice. And there are also state level regulations that provide additional pathways. The FDA regulates human cells, tissues, and cellular and tissue based products. Dr. Deb Muth 21:05We call them HCT/PPS under two main pathways. Section 361 products are those that meet specific criteria. They’re minimally manipulated, intended for homologous use, meaning these tissues perform the same basic function in the recipient as it did in the donor. They’re not combined with non-tissue components and they’re either autotogus, meaning they come from your own tissue, or they have had minimal systemic effect. Dr. Deb Muth 21:38An example of a clear 361 procedure, your doctor harvests your own bone marrow, we call this PRP, performs minimally processing to or uh perform Yeah. performs minimal processing to concentrate the stem cells through a centriuge and injects it into your arthritic knee the same day. That’s autogus same day but minimally manipulated. Dr. Deb Muth 22:04This is unquestionably legal and is being done in regenerative medicine clinics across the country every single day. So there’s section 351 where products are those that don’t meet all the section 361 criteria. They’re classified as drugs or biologic products and they require FDA approval through clinical trials. Dr. Deb Muth 22:27Now here’s where this gets more nuanced. There are regenerative medicine clinics across the United States using stem cell and exoome therapies in different contexts. First FDA registered clinical trials. These are formal research studies with investigational new drug applications. Patients enroll in trials. They sign informed consents. Dr. Deb Muth 22:48They receive therapies as part of their structured research protocols. And this is completely legal and represents the gold standard for gathering evidence. Second is observational studies and registry programs. Many clinics are collecting systemic data on patient outcomes using these therapies even outside the FDA trials. Dr. Deb Muth 23:12They’re documenting results, tracking safety, and contributing to the growing body of clinical evidence. Third, there’s clinical practice under physician discretion. There are physicians using these therapies based on their own clinical judgment informed consent from patients and their interpretation of the regulatory framework particularly around minimal manipulation and homologous use. Dr. Deb Muth 23:34Now there are also state regulations that provide additional legal frameworks. So, for example, Florida has enacted the Right to Try Act and specific regenerative medicine legislation that allows physicians to offer certain stem cell therapies under the state oversight. Utah has passed similar legislation creating pathways for regenerative medicine products. Dr. Deb Muth 23:57And these state laws recognize that patients should have access to potentially beneficial therapies, particularly when used by trained physicians with appropriate informed consent. The regulatory question often centers around are these products minimally manipulated. Some products clearly are not. They’ve been cultured. Dr. Deb Muth 24:20They’ve been expanded in laboratories and those require FDA approval that they don’t have. The FDA has appropriately shut down clinics using those products. But there are other products that undergo processing that many physicians and manufacturers argue constitutes minimal manipulation. And these tissues are cleared, potentially fragmented or particulated to make them more suitable for injection, preserved using methods like cryopreservation or liophalization and packaged. Dr. Deb Muth 24:54But the cells are not cultured or expanded in the laboratory. The FDA has issued guidance suggesting that many of these processing steps constitute more than manipul minimal manipulation. But many physicians, particularly those who specialized in regenerative medicine for years, disagree with that interpretation and they believe that the processing qualifies as minimal manipulation and that the product should fall under section 361 when used for homologous purposes. Dr. Deb Muth 25:24Is there regulatory debate? Absolutely. The FDA and some clinicians have different interpretations of what constitutes minimal manipulation. But here’s the practical reality. There are hundreds of well-trained, bore certified physicians across the United States offering these therapies every single day. Dr. Deb Muth 25:42They’re doing so based on their understanding of the regulations, their clinical experience, their commitment to patient safety, and their belief that these therapies can help people who have exhausted conventional options. The FDA’s enforcement priorities have focused primarily on the most problematic cases. Clin clinics making blatant disease cure claims, products with documented safety issues, clear cases of cellular expansion and culture, or clinics operating with no medical oversight. Dr. Deb Muth 26:15Reputable regenerative medicine physicians are using products from companies that provide comprehensive documentation of their processing methods. third-party sterility testing, certificates of analysis showing bioactive content, and quality control measures that meet or exceed industry standards. Now, let me be very clear about something. Dr. Deb Muth 26:36Quality matters enormously. Not all stem cells and exoome products are created equal. Research by Burger and colleagues published in the Orthopedic Journal of Sports Medicine in 2021 analyzed 12 commercially available stem cell products and found that many contained zero viable cells, high levels of bacteria, endotoxins and inconsistent growth factor concentrations. Dr. Deb Muth 27:01This is why the company providing these biologic matters tremendously. You want products from manufacturers who provide transport documentation in sourcing and processing. Conduct third-party testing and sterility and potency. Offer certificates of analysis for each batch. Use standardized validated processing protocols. Dr. Deb Muth 27:24Have quality control measures that ensure consistency and don’t make outrageous cure claims or promise. The best regenerative medicine physician carefully vet their suppliers. They don’t use products from companies making unrealistic promises. They use products from manufacturers who are transparent, scientifically rigorous, and committed to quality. Dr. Deb Muth 27:46Now, you specifically ask about homologous use and collagen defects. So, let me address this directly for you. Under the FDA guidance, homologous use means the tissue performs the same basic function in the recipient as in the donor. So for connective tissue, tendons, ligaments, cartilage, fascia, all of that which are collagenrich structures using MSC’s or their derivatives could be considered homologous use. Dr. Deb Muth 28:17MSC’s in their native environment provide structural support to produce extracellular matrix including collagen. Using them to support healing in damaged collagen rich tissues like arthritic joints, torn tendons or degenerative ligaments is arguably the same basic function. So using exoomes derived from MSC’s to support collagen synthesis reduce inflammation and promote tissue healing in the same structures. Dr. Deb Muth 28:46Many practitioners argue this also qualifies as homologous use because you’re supporting the structure and function that MSC’s would naturally support. So here’s the bottom line on the regulatory reality. Regenerative medicine is available in the United States. It’s being offered by highly trained physicians in integrative and regenerative medicine clinics across the country. Dr. Deb Muth 29:11Some therapies are offered in FDA registered clinics and some are offered in observational studies. Some are offered in clinical practice under physician discretion, informed consent, and careful attention to safety. The regulatory landscape is evolving. There are ongoing discussions both federally and state levels about creating clearer pathways for these therapies. Dr. Deb Muth 29:32So, if you choose to go down this road, you want to work with physicians who understand the regulations, who use quality products from reputable manufacturers with rigorous testing and documentation, who are transparent about what they’re using and why, who discuss the current regulatory landscape honestly with you, and who prioritize your safety and truly informed consent above all else. Dr. Deb Muth 29:55This is not a lawless wild wild west. But it is also not as simple as everything is legal and unavailable. It’s a nuanced landscape that requires ethical knowledge. And these practitioners that have this knowledge have got to provide informed patients who understand both the potential benefits and the current regulatory context. Dr. Deb Muth 30:17So let’s have some fun here. Let’s talk about what really matters to you that are listening and that’s what conditions are being supported with these therapies. What does the research show and what are clinicians seeing in actual practice with patients? Because here’s what’s really important. We have both published research evidence and extensive clinical experience. Dr. Deb Muth 30:38And when the two align, that’s when we can feel confident and comfortable about using these approaches. So, let’s start where we have the most substantial evidence. joint health and muscularkeeletal conditions. For arthritis, we have good data. A systemic review by Tan and colleagues published in arthritis research and therapy in 2021 analyzed 20 randomized controlled trials in MSC therapy for knee osteoarthritis. Dr. Deb Muth 31:05They found significant improvements in pain and function particularly in mild to moderate disease. What’s really interesting is when researchers start analyzing whether it was the cells themselves or their secreted factors doing the work. They found that exoomeenriched preparations showed similar benefits to whole cell therapy. Dr. Deb Muth 31:26Now towen colleagues in the biioaterials paper from 2017 demonstrated that MSC derived exoomes could promote cartilage matrix synthesize and reduce inflammation markers. The exoomes carried microarnas that told cartilage cells to make more collagen and proteoglycans, the building blocks of healthy cartilage. Dr. Deb Muth 31:49In clinical practice, physicians are seeing patients with knee, hip, shoulder, and spinal arthritis, experiencing reduced pain, improved function, better motility, and in some cases, measurable improvements in their tissue. I want to share a story here with you because back in 2006, my husband was injured at work. Some of you might have heard me tell this story before. Dr. Deb Muth 32:11Um, he broke two discs in his back and underwent surgery very early on when we started using stem cells. They had put cages and plates in and they used MSC’s to put inside the cage to create a hardened bone so that he could have a fusion and hopefully not have any pain. At the time, what the physician didn’t realize or mistakenly did was he did not put any human bone mixed with these dead cadaavver bone MSC’s. Dr. Deb Muth 32:42And so the MSC’s never grew. They didn’t have anything to grow by. So the plates and the screws just kind of went back and forth for six months before he could see another physician that would look at him differently and understand what actually happened. That was very early on. Today we know so much more than we did before. Dr. Deb Muth 33:01Fast forward to 2014 when my husband was having problems and he couldn’t feel his legs, he couldn’t feel his feet. We decided to undergo uh exoo and stem cell therapy again and we saw a physician in Florida who harvested cells from his bone marrow and his blood and his fat and mixed that all together and then put that back into the back. Dr. Deb Muth 33:27and he had tremendous benefit from it. So, I tell this story because I want you to see the trajectory of how long this has been going on that we’ve been using this and we’re learning as we’re going and things are changing rapidly in this in this world. And so, what we know today and what I’m teaching you today may very well change in a month or six months or a year from now, but we have the foundation at least to understand what is helpful, what is not right now. Dr. Deb Muth 33:54But just be aware that if you’re embarking on exoome or stem cell therapy or MSC’s that you understand that this terrain is going to change. So back to my conversation about what other things can we treat? Well, we can treat tendon and ligament injuries, chronic tennis elbow, Achilles tendonopathy, rotator cuff tears, chronic planter fasciitis. Dr. Deb Muth 34:17These were researched by PA and colleagues in the American Journal of Sports Medicine in 2017 and it showed that bone marrow concentrate injections resulted in improved pain and function compared to steroid injections. Now this mechanism appears to be enhanced collagen remodeling and reduced chronic inflammation. Dr. Deb Muth 34:39These are structural collagenrich tissues using MSC’s or their derivatives for structural support which makes biological sense. It’s homologous use. It’s similar. So clinically we’re seeing athletes, active adults and people with chronic pain who failed physically um failed physical therapy, failed conservative treatments finding relief in this functional uh improvement in this functional world that we live in today. Dr. Deb Muth 35:07So, I want to be clear about what we’re doing here for joint and muscularkeeletal issues. We’re not growing completely new cartilage from scratch or severely destroyed joints. We’re not magically regenerating tissues that’s been gone for decades. That’s not possible here. What you’re doing when you’re using MSSE’s and exoomes is supporting the body’s natural ability to repair, reducing inflam inflammation and damage, and we’re driving progressive degeneration uh or we’re stopping the progressive degeneration. By reducing the Dr. Deb Muth 35:41inflammatory damage, we’re stimulating resonant stem cells that have been dormant. We’re improving blood flow and uh uh oxygen to the tissues like cartilage and tendons. and we’re organizing the body to start creating its own quality collagen as it heals. So, it’s a regenerative support, not a tissue replacement. Dr. Deb Muth 36:07But for many people, this support is lifechanging. So, let’s talk about autoimmune disorders now because this is one of the most exciting and unrecognized applications. autoimmune conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, MS, Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, Hashimoto’s, they all involve the immune system and the immune system is deregulated. Dr. Deb Muth 36:30And so basically your immune system is seeing this tissue as foreign and it’s attacking it. These MSC’s and their exoomes have profound immune modulatory properties. They don’t suppress the immune system like steroids or imunosuppressive drugs. They modulate it helping to restore balance. So for rheumatoid arthritis, research by Weang and colleagues in stem cells translational medicine in 2016 showed that MSC derived exoomes could shift the balance of immune cells, reducing pro-inflammatory TH7 cells that drive joint disruption uh and increase Dr. Deb Muth 37:08regulatory TE-C cells that maintain immune tolerance. So for MS, a clinical trial by Kasus and colleagues published in archives of neurology back in 2010 evaluated autotogus MSC therapy and MS patients and they found evidence of reduced disease activity, improved neurological function and decreased inflammatory uh lesions on MRI scans. Dr. Deb Muth 37:34The proposed mechanism is MSC’s and their exoomes reduce inflammatory cytoine production promote regulatory imu immune populations support remination of damaged nerves that is rebuilding the protective coating around the nerve fibers and it reduces bloodb brain barrier permeability which prevents immune cells from attacking their brain and spinal cord. Dr. Deb Muth 38:02And so for inflammatory bowel disease, the research by Barnholm uh sorry Barnhorn and colleagues in gut in 2020 showed that MS cell MSC derived extracellular vesicles could support mucosal healing and reduce inflammation in the gut lining. They appeared to restore intestinal barrier function, healing that leaky gut and modulating local immune responses. Dr. Deb Muth 38:30So in clinical practice, physicians are seeing patients with autoimmune conditions, experiencing reduced disease flares, decreasing the need for imunosuppressive medications, improving energy and quality of life, and in some cases extending periods of remission. But here’s what I want you to understand. Dr. Deb Muth 38:52When you see these therapies for autoimmune conditions, we are supporting immune regulation and reducing inflammatory damage. We are not treating or curing the disease in a conventional sense. These therapies work best as part of a comprehensive functional medicine approach that also addresses gut health because 70% of your immune system lives in your gut and environmental triggers like mold, heavy metals, chemical toxins that can drive autoimmune responses, chronic infections that can trigger immune disregulation, stress and nervous system imbalance. And Dr. Deb Muth 39:29these nutritional deficiencies are necessary to help improve the immune function. So regenerative therapy without addressing root causes is like bailing water out of your boat without plugging the hole. You might get temporary relief, but the underlying problem still remains. So let’s talk about neurological conditions. Dr. Deb Muth 39:52And this is where the science gets truly fascinating. for traumatic brain injury and concussion. Research by Zang and colleagues in the Journal of Neurot Trauma in 2015 showed that MSC derived exoomes could reduce brain inflammation, promote neuroplasticity, that’s the brain’s ability to rewire itself and improve cognitive outcomes in animal models. Dr. Deb Muth 40:17The exoomes crossed the bloodb brain barrier, delivered neuroprotective proteins and microRNAs. They reduced inflammation, supported mitochondrial function in injured neurons and promoted both new blood vessels from new blood formation and neurogenesis and the birth of new neurons occurred. Neurological recovery requires a multi-systematic approach. Dr. Deb Muth 40:42Exoomes may support neural repair, but they work best combined with hormone optimization, growth hormone, testosterone, thyroid, pregnnolone, mitochondrial support compounds like NAD, CoQ10, PQQ, carnitine, all of those things that we use traditionally in functional medicine. Now for stroke recovery, there was research by Zinn and colleagues in the journal of extracellular vesicles that showed MSC derived exoomes reduced the size of brain damage and improved neurological recovery in animal models. There was a Dr. Deb Muth 41:19Parkinson’s disease study done by Kimoji and colleagues in the movement disorders in 2018 that suggested that MSSE derived exoomes could support dopamineergic neuron survival and those are the cells that die in Parkinson’s and it can help to reduce neuroinflammation. Clinically, physicians are seeing improvements in patients with postconussion syndrome, chronic traumatic brain injury, early stage cognitive decline, and other neurodeenerative conditions. Dr. Deb Muth 41:52These are not cures, but meaningful improvements in cognitive function, mood, energy, and quality of life. Now, let’s talk about autism spectrum disorder very carefully here because this is a very sensitive but very important topic for families. There have been several clinical trials that have explored MSC therapy for autism. Dr. Deb Muth 42:16Liv and colleagues published research in stem cell translational medicine in 2013 showing improvements in social interaction, communication, and behavioral symptoms in children with ASD who received cord blood MSC’s. Dawson and colleagues in 2017 conducted randomized trial autotogus cord blood infusion and found modest improvements in social communication particularly in children with higher baseline immune dysregulation. Dr. Deb Muth 42:47The proposed mechanisms for modulation of neuroinflammation support the mitochondrial function because many children with autism show evidence of mitochondrial dysfunction, reduction of oxidative stress, improvement in gut brain access dysfunction and modulation of immune dysregulation. In clinical practice, some physicians are seeing improvements in some children, better eye contact, increased language development, reduced sensory sensitivities, improved social engagement, but responses vary significantly, and we cannot predict which children will benefit most. So for Dr. Deb Muth 43:26families considering regenerative approaches for autism, these therapies are supporting the body’s healing mechanisms, reducing neuroinflammation, supporting cellular energy production, modulating immune function. These should only be considered as part of a comprehensive biomedical approach that includes dietary interventions to address food sensitivities, support gut health, environmental toxin removal, particularly heavy metals and chemical exposures, gut healing protocols with targeted probiotics and nutrients, Dr. Deb Muth 44:00metabolic testing and targeted supplementation, and evidence-based on behavioral and developmental therapies. These therapies should only be pursued with practitioners who are honest about what we know and what we don’t know and who follow rigorous safety protocols who never promise cures and who view regenerative medicine as a tool in the comprehensive healing strategy, not a standalone miracle. Dr. Deb Muth 44:26Not only that, these therapies will most likely need to be given several times over the course of this person’s lifetime, possibly even on an annual basis. And this is really important because it is not a oneandone. It is not a one-sizefits-all, and it needs to be looked at as a long-term option for working with autism. So, since we’re looking at stem cells versus exoomes, living cells, with stem cell therapy, you’re receiving living cells that can survive in your body for days to weeks. Dr. Deb Muth 45:02With exoome therapy, there are no living cells, just biological messages they would have sent. So, replication stem cells can potentially replicate. Although therapeutically this happens minimally, exoomes cannot replicate. They deliver the cargo and then they are cleared by your body. With stem cells, it’s primarily paracrine signaling. Dr. Deb Muth 45:28They’re coaching your cells to heal. With exoomes, it’s pure signaling, pure reprogramming your cells without any cellular component. Stem cells as we talked about can be autotogus from your own bone fat, blood or um bone marrow or allergenic from umbilical cord tissue or Wharton’s jelly. Dr. Deb Muth 45:50Exoomes are typically derived from cultured MSC’s often from umbilical cord or bone marrow sources and both can be given by local injection for targeted treatment of joints and tissues and exoomes can be given intravenously for whole body systemic support. both have um low immun immunogicity. I can’t say that word today. Dr. Deb Muth 46:17But exoomes have even lower risk since they contain no cellular material. Now, it’s absolutely critical for you to understand that there are massive quality differences. We’ve talked about this earlier. I want you to be very aware of this and have a conversation with any of the practitioners that you’re considering undergoing this treatment with. Dr. Deb Muth 46:37Here is where it matters more than anything when you’re considering regenerative medicine, the quality of the products and the expertise of the practitioner. Because the reality is not all regenerative medicine products are created equal. We all know that when we take different supplements and not all practitioners understand these therapies at the same depth. Dr. Deb Muth 46:58You want to look for practitioners that are board certified or have some kind of specialized regenerative medicine training. You want to know their clinical experience. How much have they done these procedures? How long have they done this? You want honest communication about the evidence and the limitations in this. Dr. Deb Muth 47:17You want a comprehensive functional medicine approach to go along with these therapies. And you want somebody that’s transparent about their informed consent and their regulatory status. If you have people that are uh claiming that they can cure disease or giving you guarantees, that is not that is not a good practitioner to work with. Dr. Deb Muth 47:37If you have high pressure sales tactics, you need to decide today limited supply for a week. These are marketing manipulations. It’s not medical care. You want to be cautious of extremely low prices because quality regenerative products are expensive to source, process, and test. and store. And if somebody’s offering stem cells or exoomes for a few hundred dollars, seriously, you need to question the quality, the safety, and where they got this from. Dr. Deb Muth 48:09So before undergoing any regenerative therapy, make sure you’re having a very, very lengthy conversation with the person and so you truly understand exactly what you’re getting, how it’s going to be delivered, and what they’re going to do. If there’s one thing I want you to take away from today is that your body has remarkable capacity to heal when given the right biological signals and the right environment. Dr. Deb Muth 48:35Stem cells and exoomes are powerful tools for providing biological signaling that can reduce inflammation, modulate immune function, support tissue repair, and restore cellular communication that’s been disrupted by chronic disease and inflammation. These therapies are available in the United States through trained physicians working in FDA registered trials, observational studies, and clinical practice, and using quality products from manufacturers with rigorous testing and quality control. Dr. Deb Muth 49:04So before you invest in regenerative medicine, do your homework. Ask detailed questions about product quality and source. Verify the products come from reputable manufacturers with certificates of analysis, third-party testing. Work with experienced practitioners. And remember, no injection, no infusion, no biologic can overcome ongoing toxic exposure, chronic stress, poor nutrition, gut dysfunction, and inadequate sleep. Dr. Deb Muth 49:34True healing requires your body and you to actively participate in this healing. If you are unwilling to address the root causes and change the lifestyle factors that disrupted your health in the first place, the biologics can amplify your healing signals, but you have to create the internal environment where healing can actually happen. Dr. Deb Muth 49:56So, I hope this episode has helped you understand regenerative medicine more clearly. Share it with somebody who’s looking for healing beyond the conventional approaches.

Epi 352 What autoimmune disease REALLY does to your body goes far beyond occasional fatigue or inflammation. In this episode of the Our Sleeved Life Podcast, we sit down with resilience coach and medical professional Nikolett Demeter from Pop Recovery to have an honest conversation about chronic illness, lupus, gut health, bariatric nutrition, inflammation, and what it actually feels like to live in a body that's constantly fighting itself. We talk about why autoimmune diseases like lupus, Crohn's disease, rheumatoid arthritis, Graves' disease, and other chronic illnesses can leave people exhausted, struggling with brain fog, digestive issues, nutrient deficiencies, chronic inflammation, and flare-ups that impact everyday life. Nikolett explains how inflammation works inside the body, why sleep and hydration matter more than most people realize, and how nutrition, protein intake, omega-3s, gut health, and stress management can help support healing and recovery. This conversation also dives into bariatric surgery recovery, vitamin deficiencies, immune system health, anti-inflammatory foods, hormone balance, and the powerful connection between the gut microbiome and overall wellness. Whether you're personally dealing with autoimmune disease or supporting someone who is, this episode is full of practical advice, emotional support, and real conversations about resilience and health. If you've been searching for ways to reduce chronic inflammation naturally, improve gut health, manage autoimmune symptoms, recover after bariatric surgery, or simply better understand chronic illness and fatigue, this episode is for you.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT): Beyond the Bends—Wounds, Stroke Recovery, Radiation Injury, and Performance. Nicole Garrett, founder and COO of Under Pressure Hyperbarics, details hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT). She explains how HBOT treats divers' decompression sickness by recompressing nitrogen bubbles and reducing inflammation, and how therapeutic benefits depend on reaching adequate pressure (commonly around 2.0 atmospheres or more; diver treatment may begin at 2.8). Garrett describes HBOT's history, FDA-approved uses such as diabetic wound healing, radiation injury, and sudden sensorineural hearing loss (often combined with steroids), and off-label use for stroke/TBI recovery, cognitive issues, autoimmune flares, Crohn's disease, athletic recovery, anti-aging research (including telomere findings), and adjunctive cancer care. She contrasts “soft” chambers with higher-pressure medical chambers, discusses treatment courses (often 10–60 sessions), safety and contraindications (ears, pneumothorax, retinal bubble procedures), and practical barriers like cost, insurance coverage, and facility/oxygen regulations.

La maladie de Crohn et la rectocolite hémorragique sont les deux maladies inflammatoires chroniques de l'intestin, appelés plus communément MICI. Dues à une dérégulation du système immunitaire, ces maladies se caractérisent par l'inflammation de la paroi d'une partie du tube digestif. Généralement diagnostiquées entre 20 et 30 ans, elles sont plus fréquentes dans les pays industrialisés. Quels sont les symptômes ? Comment se fait le diagnostic ? Quelle prise en charge existe ?     Parler de santé, c'est aussi faire sortir certaines maladies de l'anonymat: les rendre visibles, alors que pour beaucoup d'entre nous, leur nom sont inconnus et leurs symptômes ignorés et c'est aussi à cela que servent les journées mondiales ! Ce 19 mai, c'est précisément la journée mondiale des maladies inflammatoires chroniques de l'intestin, les MICI : 4 lettres pour désigner la maladie de Crohn et la Rectocolite Hémorragique. 300.000 personnes concernées dans un pays comme la France, où près de 8.000 nouveaux diagnostics sont posés chaque année. Alors, on peut légitimement se demander pourquoi ? Comment expliquer que ces MICI et les patients soient en quelque sorte invisibilisés ? Pour comprendre :  il faut saisir la dimension taboue des symptômes et des complications possibles (diarrhées, douleurs, fistules, urgenterie, saignements...) et plus largement, la difficulté de parler ouvertement de ces organes - ceux de la sphère digestive (anus, rectum)- qui peuvent être directement affectés par les poussées inflammatoires.  Aujourd'hui, il n'existe pas de test de dépistage dédié pout le diagnostic, et côté explications, il s'agit plutôt d'un faisceau de facteurs : prédisposition génétique, rôle de l'environnement, déséquilibre du microbiote. Mieux connaitre ces maladies qui peuvent très lourdement impacter le quotidien, c'est important pour sortir de la stigmatisation et intégrer certaines habitudes alimentaires ou en termes de lutte contre le stress, qui vont permettre d'améliorer la qualité de vie.  Avec : Pr Julien Kirchgesner, gastroentérologue à l'Hôpital Saint-Antoine à Paris et directeur d'une équipe de recherche en épidémiologie à Sorbonne Université, spécialisé dans la prise en charge des patients atteints de maladies inflammatoires chroniques de l'intestin Dr Innocent Ngo, gastroentérologue au Cabinet Médical Icare à Abidjan.

Host Dr. Russell welcomes returning guest Dane Johnson to discuss resilience through gut health, Crohn's and colitis as autoimmune inflammatory bowel diseases, and why cases are rapidly increasing, which Johnson attributes to combined factors like toxins, pathogens, stress, EMF, poor sleep, and ultra-processed foods, including glyphosate exposure. Johnson shares his history of severe illness, failed medications, near-death complications, and subsequent self-empowerment that led to helping others find individualised “your answer, not the answer” by combining conventional, holistic, mental, and spiritual approaches. They emphasise restoring microbiome balance rather than eradication, caution against low-quality supplements and biohacking hype, and stress choosing trustworthy, integrity-driven providers and products with third-party testing. Johnson highlights probiotics (especially Natren single-strain powders), mentions RDLA and indigo naturalis, and offers free consultations via Crohn's Colitis Lifestyle.00:00 Welcome 00:51 Dane's Health Journey02:03 Autoimmune Epidemic Rising03:38 Food Toxins and Glyphosate05:34 Beyond Avoidance to Healing06:59 What Balance Really Means08:20 Diet Limits and Biohacking10:13 Supplements Done Right13:16 Trust Integrity and Value16:10 Doctors Research and Advocacy17:43 How to Choose What Works19:04 TikTok Fixes Debunked19:40 Probiotic Quality Matters20:20 Authenticity Over Hype20:48 Natren Single Strain Approach23:15 RDLA For Colon Inflammation24:55 Indigo Naturalis And Evidence25:49 Stress Mindset And Balance27:27 Rebuilding Resilience Long Term29:35 When Sick Requires Zeal30:36 Connection Over Cravings32:03 How To Work With Dane34:27 Natural Path Closing ThoughtsYou can contact us at info@qedod.comResources can be found online or link to our website https://resilienceunravelled.com#resilience, #burnout, #intuition

Part 3 of the Women's Health SeriesBloating, gas, urgency, abdominal pain, and that relentless “what if something happens?” loop can turn sex from a close connection into stress fast. Digestive symptoms can quietly impact some of the most vulnerable parts of our lives...including intimacy, relationships, and self-esteem. And often, the shame surrounding those experiences feels heavier than the symptoms themselves. If you've ever pulled away from connection because your gut felt unpredictable, this conversation is for you. In this episode, we're opening up an honest and empowering discussion about gut health, confidence, and reclaiming intimacy without fear or embarrassment.We dive into this topic with our expert guest, Dr. Alyse Bedell, GI psychologist and Certified Sex Therapist, covering: • Why digestive functions feel taboo in sexual relationships • How IBS and IBD symptoms can impact desire, relaxation, and satisfaction • Myth-busting the idea that sex must be spontaneous to be pleasurable • Scripts and “reset” strategies for handling symptoms in the moment • Redefining intimacy so closeness does not always imply intercourse • Flexible planning around meals, energy, triggers, and symptom patterns • Partner support that reassures without becoming patronizing • The circular sexual response cycle and starting from sexual neutrality • Rebuilding sexual self-esteem with stigma work and acting with "as if” confidence This episode has been sponsored by Ardelyx. References: Ballou S, McMahon C, Lee HN, et al.

Jean David Zeitoun, gastro-entérologue et auteur, est un des rares médecins à dire ce que les responsables politiques ne veulent pas entendre. Ceci est un passage très très écouté du podcast, c'est la raison pour laquelle nous l'avons sélectionné comme un moment.Dans ce moment, je parle avec Jean David Zeitoun d'un paradoxe qui me frappe depuis longtemps : comment peut-on se féliciter des progrès de la médecine pendant que l'obésité explose, que des cancers touchent des gens de 35 ans, et que la mortalité infantile repart à la hausse en France ? J'ai questionné Zeitoun sur les vrais ennemis de notre santé au XXIe siècle, ces "méchants" que nos dirigeants ne regardent pas encore en face : l'alimentation ultra-transformée et la pollution. On parle aussi de la réaction de Maillard, de NASH, de maladie de Crohn, et de ce qui se passe réellement dans notre corps quand on mange des produits qu'on ne reconnaîtrait pas dans la nature. Citations marquantes"L'espérance de vie, c'est l'indicateur qui se modifie trop tardivement. Quand elle commence à baisser, vous êtes déjà en état de dégradation avancée.""Les méchants typiques du XXIe siècle, c'est l'alimentation et l'environnement. Les leaders politiques résonnent encore avec la mentalité du XXe siècle.""Il y a une quinzaine de cancers en Europe pour lesquels la fréquence augmente plus vite que la démographie, chez des gens entre 35 et 50 ans. On n'en parle jamais.""Les calories ne font pas tout. Vous pouvez avoir à calories égales des aliments beaucoup plus mauvais pour la santé juste parce qu'ils ont été ultra-transformés.""Pour naviguer entre les risques alimentaires, il faut beaucoup de connaissances, beaucoup de moyens et pas mal de temps. Ça veut dire qu'il faut une intervention, sinon ça ne se résoudra pas tout seul."Big Ideas1. L'espérance de vie est un mauvais indicateur de santé publique (~00:45) On se rassure avec l'espérance de vie, mais c'est un indicateur qui réagit trop tard. Quand elle commence à baisser, comme aux États-Unis depuis 10 ans, c'est qu'on est déjà dans une crise profonde. Il faut regarder d'autres signaux, plus précoces et plus révélateurs.2. Les cancers précoces, un angle mort politique et médiatique (~01:21) Une quinzaine de cancers progressent en Europe plus vite que la démographie chez les 35-50 ans. Personne n'en parle. Ce silence dit beaucoup sur notre incapacité collective à regarder les vrais problèmes en face quand ils n'entrent pas dans les narratifs dominants.3. L'alimentation est le nouveau tabac, sans la taxe (~02:30) Le XXe siècle a su identifier le tabac et l'alcool comme ennemis de santé publique et agir dessus (lentement, mais quand même). Le XXIe a deux nouveaux ennemis bien identifiés par la science : l'alimentation ultra-transformée et l'environnement chimique. Aucune politique publique sérieuse n'existe encore.4. Ultra-transformé : l'effet au-delà des calories (~06:48) Pendant des décennies, on a jugé les aliments uniquement sur leurs calories. C'est faux. Un aliment ultra-transformé peut provoquer de l'obésité, des maladies du foie, des inflammations chroniques avec un compteur calorique "normal". La transformation elle-même est un facteur de risque indépendant.5. La réaction de Maillard : vieillir de l'intérieur (~10:09) Cette réaction chimique naturelle, la caramélisation, est accélérée par certains produits alimentaires. Elle rigidifie les vaisseaux, opacifie le cristallin, abîme les tissus. C'est un mécanisme de vieillissement accéléré que l'on s'inflige sans le savoir.Questions posées dans l'interviewAujourd'hui, ça ressemble à quoi la santé au XXIe siècle ?Les cancers précoces en Europe, pourquoi on n'en parle pas ?La mortalité infantile repart à la hausse en France : quelles causes ?L'alimentation ultra-transformée, c'est vraiment le nouveau "méchant" dominant ?La commodification de l'alimentation explique-t-elle qu'on y prête moins attention ?Le marché alimentaire peut-il se réguler seul ou faut-il une intervention d'État ?Maladies chroniques, maladies auto-immunes : d'où ça vient, comment ça fonctionne ?Qu'est-ce qui se passe exactement dans le corps quand on mange de l'ultra-transformé ?Les laits végétaux industriels et les steaks végétariens, c'est une bonne alternative ?La réaction de Maillard, qu'est-ce que c'est et pourquoi c'est un problème ?

What we know about health and medicine today didn't come from clinical trials. In fact, most of what we know today came from hundreds of years of accidents, tregedies, crazy stories and stubborn people who refused to let their ideas die.
