Could sunlight help treat disease? A growing number of studies find potential benefits of UV light therapy for conditions like multiple sclerosis, Type 1 diabetes and Crohn's disease.
This week, Dr. Kahn discussed a new paper about the power of a Zero Score Calcium CT Scan in people without symptoms but concerns for soft plaque (non-calcified) in those with symptoms. Generally, patients with symptoms are better tested by Coronary CT Angiograms (CCTA), optimally with FFR and Cleerly Software analysis. He provides case studies from the clinic. Other topics include plant diets for Crohn's Disease prevention, the goal of 7,000 steps a day, Lipoprotein(a) and stroke, heart and brain risk control benefits, strategies to avoid weight gain, and erythritol and heart disease.

In Episode 72 of The Steak Lad Experience, I sat down with Kaitlyn Menere. We both happened to connect at an event earlier in the year and I was immediately intrigued by her story. Based on that interaction and her role as an integrative psychotherapist, I knew that I needed to reach out to make a conversation happen. During the podcast we touched on the adversity faced during her early childhood, the impact of losing her mum in her early 20's, the previous battle she faced with Crohn's/the path to healing through the Carnivore Diet, life events that inspired the desire to take control of her life and much much more. This was a deep conversation that outlined the fact that change is possible for anyone no matter the cards you are dealt and I hope anyone listening enjoyed it as much as I did!

Send us a textJoyce Jackson attended a very small private school in Selah, Washington and enjoyed playing team sports for fun. When she moved to a public high school her senior year, she made the varsity volleyball team, and this sparked her lifelong engagement with fitness. Diagnosed with Crohn's disease at 23, Joyce turned adversity into purpose by becoming a certified aerobics instructor and later a personal trainer, teaching seniors, military-bound youth, and athletes of all ages. She has worked in gyms, private homes, and virtually—adapting during COVID with creative solutions like soup can workouts. Now 61 and semi-retired, she coaches group classes, strength trains, and golfs 2–3 times a week with her husband. She also paddleboards, plays pickleball, and remains deeply involved in fitness education. Her go-getter mindset, combined with personal experience overcoming chronic illness, makes her a role model for staying active, aging well, and customizing movement to every body.
Sara Levitt was diagnosed at age 3 with ulcerative colitis, which progressed to Crohn’s disease by age 11. By age 13, she’d undergone emergency surgery and has since lived with a permanent ostomy bag. Sara has become a powerful voice in the modeling world, proudly walking runways, appearing in international magazines, and in two weeks, she’ll compete for Miss Universe Canada – she’s using the platform to raise awareness around chronic illness and mental health. She spoke to Ken Connors.
In 2019, I became very ill. I experienced severe reflux, which made my voice raspy and left me with a constant sore throat. At times, I would wake up at night gasping for breath, and it would take several minutes to regain control of my breathing. I went from doctor to doctor... what was happening to me? Finally, someone diagnosed me with GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease). But hold on, doesn't that only happen to overweight older men? Apparently not. To improve, I had to learn to take care of my gut health. I had to stop eating dinner so late. I needed at least three hours between my last meal and when I would go "horizontal" for sleep. I learned that digestion starts "in the mouth," so I had to slow down how quickly I ate. Today's podcast features guest Dane Johnson, who faced life-threatening digestive issues. He struggled with severe Crohn's disease and colitis, leading to months of hospitalization. Now, he has learned how to heal and shares his tips for rebuilding gut health in this episode. ______ Vitali Skin Care Have you heard about copper peptides? I hadn't either, until I listened to a podcast about the power of copper peptides with Debbi Barber, the founder of Vitali Regenerative Skin Care. I was intrigued by their discussion about copper peptides and how they can help soften scars, regenerate skin, and even improve the appearance of crepey skin. It's not often that I stop what I'm doing, read research, and order the products, but that's precisely what I did! And then I emailed Vitali Skin Care and asked for a coupon for my community. In hindsight, I should have asked for the coupon for my order, but nonetheless, you get 20% off your order! I'm trying body creme and skin serum. I will keep you posted on my results! https://www.vitaliskincare.com/discount/cancerwarrior?ref=cbkmpsij ____ Air Dr. I've been using the Air Doctor air purifier for almost a year and absolutely love it! I first heard about it from Dr. Mark Hyman, and even though it was a bit of a splurge compared to what I usually spend, I'm so glad I invested.

You'll find some amazing brands we trust—and by checking them out, you're helping us keep the podcast going. Today, we're focusing on an often-overlooked peptide called VIP, short for Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide. The name might sound technical, but this peptide plays some important roles in the body. It helps regulate inflammation, supports nerve function, improves blood flow by relaxing blood vessels, and may even have benefits for things like chronic pain, including back pain. Let's get into it. What is VIP? We've talked about VIP before on a previous podcast, but it's been awhile and I'd like to start with the basics as a refresher. VIP is a 28-amino acid neuropeptide that acts like a signaling molecule in both the central and peripheral nervous systems. Think of it like a chemical messenger that can influence a lot of different body systems. VIP belongs to the glucagon/secretin peptide superfamily, and it's found throughout the body, including your brain, intestines, lungs, and immune cells. Now, what does VIP actually do? Well it does quite a bit. VIP works by binding to specific receptors on cells—called VPAC1 and VPAC2—which trigger a chain reaction inside the body through something known as the cyclic AMP pathway. Once activated: It relaxes smooth muscles, which helps open up blood vessels (vasodilation) and airways (bronchodilation) It stimulates secretion of water and electrolytes in places like the gut and pancreas—so yes, it helps with digestion too It's a major immune modulator, calming inflammation by regulating immune cell behavior Neuroprotective role, supporting the survival and adaptability of neurons VIP in Medicine – What's the Buzz? VIP has been studied in a variety of conditions. Inflammatory diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and Crohn's Neurodegenerative conditions like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's Autoimmune diseases like osteoarthritis Respiratory conditions like pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), asthma, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or due to mold toxicity But today, we're zooming in on something more tangible for a lot of people—back pain. VIP and Back Pain – What Do We Know? Let's get into the science here. VIP has recently caught attention for its potential role in intervertebral disc degeneration, which is one of the top causes of chronic low back pain. A 2024 study found that VIP receptors were significantly reduced in degenerated human discs—which is kind of a red flag. When VIP was given to mice for four weeks, researchers saw slowed degeneration, better structural proteins like aggrecan, and overall healthier discs on imaging. Promising, right? But here's the catch—this was a preclinical animal study. We still need human trials to confirm it works outside the lab. VIP and Joint Pain And when it comes to VIP and joint pain, there's a bit more research on VIP and osteoarthritis, especially when the spine is involved. In OA models, VIP was shown to lower pro-inflammatory cytokines—those molecules that contribute to pain and make joints hurt. But here's where it gets complicated: some studies report that VIP accumulation in joints might actually worsen pain. So... it's a bit of a paradox. So what's the takeaway? VIP can be helpful—but its role in pain management seems to depend on how much, where, and what kind of pain we're talking about. VIP in Peptide Therapy – Real-World Use? In peptide clinics—especially those using integrative or regenerative medicine approaches—VIP is sometimes part of treatment protocols for nerve-related pain and inflammation. It's often paired with other peptides like BPC-157 and TB-500. You can find some clinics that list VIP as a go-to for chronic pain, including back pain. But here's the reality check, clinical data is limited, success is anecdotal, it's pricey and results can vary from person to person. So while VIP might help reduce inflammation and slow tissue degeneration, it's not a substitute for tried-and-true pain management peptides like BPC-157.

Hindy shares how she felt her life was over when got diagnosed, what it means to pursue a diagnosis and advocate for yourself in medicine, the decision to keep things a secret and how her diagnosis affected her self worth. Hindy in her own words: I have a very interesting life journey. In short; at age 16 I got extremely sick and was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis, and I've been on that journey ever since. Then, at age 17 my parents separated. I was an extremely shy and scared to open up type of girl before I got sick, and throughout my journey I've learned to open up more and more. I have a lot to say on how that happened and why I did that work, but I've become so open that I now have a public Instagram page where I share my journey with chronic illness - a first in the chassidish/heimish community for sure, and a first for Crohn's in the frum world. @hopeinhindy Click here to join the Impact Fashion Whatsapp Status Click here to see my collection of dresses.

Stacey is seemingly living the dream. Working as a social media manager and patient advocate for Rare Patient Voice, she balances work with being a wife, mother, dog mom, caregiver, and pursuing her goal of a happy healthy home on the islands of Hawaii. For most people the normal struggles with preparing for your oldest to graduate high school and your youngest to enter middle school are enough. Stacey has taken on those challenges as well as health related twists and turns, not only with herself, but also her daughter. Stacey and her daughter Iris had parallel health crises on the small island that they call home. When her daughter was just 4 days old she had blood in her diapers and that started a journey that ended in an overnight flight to Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP). She was eventually diagnosed with Crohn's Disease around her third birthday. This, alongside allergies to dairy, tree nuts, peanuts, and eggs made her growth and development an uphill battle for much of her childhood before current treatments like biologics proved more effective. Before her daughter's diagnosis Stacey had been thinking her fatigue was just the stress of working and raising two kids. That was until the day she found a lump in her neck and was quickly diagnosed with thyroid cancer. Thankfully surgery was quick and successful, but the long term effects of having half of a thyroid continue to this day. These experiences have led Stacey to the position she holds now, working for Rare Patient Voice. They work to connect patients with rare diseases and companies looking to do focus groups and surveys about the lived experience of people with rare and chronic illnesses. This work connecting patients to paid opportunities to share their experiences as well as acting as a patient advocate has allowed Stacey to use her personal experience to create community around the world, centered around health challenges that people often experience in isolation.

Send us a textKimberly LaRose's journey from a nine-year diagnostic odyssey to creating an award-winning vodka demonstrates the remarkable resilience found in the IBD community. After struggling with unexplained symptoms that doctors repeatedly misdiagnosed, Kimberly finally received her Crohn's disease diagnosis and discovered that gluten and corn were major inflammation triggers for her body.Rather than seeing her dietary restrictions as limitations, Kimberly embraced a philosophy of "replacing, not removing." This positive mindset would prove transformative when she attended an event where she couldn't eat or drink anything due to her restrictions. What began as a half-joking call to a friend about creating their own vodka evolved into Wisher Vodka – a sugar beet-based spirit that's gluten-free, grain-free, and vegan.The path from concept to award-winning product wasn't simple. Kimberly and her co-founder Emily researched 300 distillers, visited 60 personally, and developed a unique production process that includes lab testing every batch to ensure purity. Their commitment to quality and transparency has earned them multiple prestigious awards, including Grand Vodka of the Year with a remarkable 98-point taste rating from the Bartender Spirits Award.Beyond the business success, Kimberly's story highlights how health challenges can unexpectedly open new doors. "I wouldn't have created Wisher had I not been diagnosed with Crohn's," she reflects. Her work supporting the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation further demonstrates her commitment to the IBD community that sparked her entrepreneurial journey.Whether you're navigating dietary restrictions, seeking inspiration for managing chronic illness, or simply appreciate the story behind your spirits, Kimberly's journey reminds us that sometimes our greatest struggles lead to our most meaningful creations.

Send us a textOn our latest episode we speak to Agegroup Triathlete Helen McClure.Helen says "I Have always been sporty, but have found I've needed a reason for sport. Joined the army reserves at 21 and as the only female officer in an infantry regiment had to be fit and provide myself more than the boys. Served for 9 years, mainly supporting the regulars with media operations. First career was newspaper journalism and corporate comms, then 20 years ago retrained as an interior designer. Moved from UK to Chicago to Dubai to Singapore with husband job and adapted work and sport to fit the country and environment. Moved back to UK in 2016 and am still getting used to how cold summer is!Moved from keeping generally fit to marathons, then ultramarathon, but slipped two discs when 8 months pregnant with my first daughter, so could no longer do the longer distances. Triathlon fitted the bill as it's three sports and not too much of any, as long as I keep to short course. The one 70.3 I've done I had to cycling a lot of it standing up to stop my discs from slipping, and still managed to average 30kph!Started triathlon when moved to Dubai 15 years ago. Love hot weather racing. Hate cold weather, especially cold water. Much prefer to swim without a wetsuit (if it's above 25c!).Sport has also given me mental health. My eldest daughter was born with life threatening medical condition, which meant we were travelling to Great Ormond Street Hospital most weeks. I was unable to have a full time job because of this, so exercise was my head space.It's still my head space as my girls are now teenagers doing GCSE and A-level now and my husband commutes from Surrey to York.

Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guests: Darrell S. Pardi, M.D., and Laura E. Raffals, M.D. Microscopic colitis is one of the lesser-known members of the inflammatory bowel disease family. Symptoms include chronic, frequent diarrhea and fecal urgency. It's usually suspected from the patient's clinical symptoms and diagnosis is established by colonoscopy with biopsy. Biopsy is necessary as the colonic mucosa appears normal at endoscopy. A specific cause isn't known but it can be associated with several medications. Although it's not typically a life-threatening condition, it can lead to weight loss and potentially dehydration. How does microscopic colitis differ from ulcerative colitis or Crohn's Disease? Who's at risk of developing it? Since these patients usually present to primary care providers, when should we suspect it? How is it managed, and can it be cured? These are some of the questions I'll be asking my guests, Darrell S. Pardi, M.D., and Laura E. Raffals, M.D., both gastroenterologists at the Mayo Clinic. We'll be discussing “Microscopic Colitis” as part of our ongoing series of podcasts on “Inflammatory Bowel Disease”. https://ce.mayo.edu/content/mayo-clinic-talks-inflammatory-bowel-disease Connect with us and learn more here: https://ce.mayo.edu/online-education/content/mayo-clinic-podcasts

Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Edward V. Loftus JR, M.D. Inflammatory Bowel Disease is somewhat of an umbrella term for a group of chronic inflammatory conditions of the GI tract. The most common types include ulcerative colitis and Crohn's Disease. While there are similarities between the two, there are also differences. For many individuals with inflammatory bowel disease, it's only a mild illness. Unfortunately for some, it can lead to severe disability and potentially life-threatening complications. What are the similarities and differences between ulcerative colitis and Crohn's? When should we suspect a patient has an inflammatory bowel disease? What's the best way to establish a diagnosis and finally, what treatment options do we have? These are just some of the questions I'll be asking my guest, Edward V. Loftus JR, M.D., from the Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology at the Mayo Clinic as we discuss “Inflammatory Bowel Disease and Its Treatment”. https://ce.mayo.edu/content/mayo-clinic-talks-inflammatory-bowel-disease Connect with us and learn more here: https://ce.mayo.edu/online-education/content/mayo-clinic-podcasts

Send us a textNavigating the workplace while managing inflammatory bowel disease can feel like walking a tightrope—balancing health needs against career responsibilities. This episode cuts through the confusion with straightforward, practical advice from someone who truly understands both sides of the equation.Employment attorney Abbe Feitelberg returns to share her unique perspective as both an IBD patient and legal expert. She breaks down the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) in clear, accessible terms that empower you to advocate for yourself in any workplace situation. From understanding which companies must comply with these laws to learning exactly what paperwork you need, Abbe demystifies the process of securing your workplace rights.The conversation explores common misconceptions, like believing managers need detailed medical information (they don't!) or that requesting accommodations might hurt your career (it shouldn't!). You'll discover practical strategies for maintaining privacy while getting the support you need, whether that's intermittent leave for treatments, flexible scheduling during flares, or immediate bathroom access. Most importantly, you'll learn how to document everything properly to protect yourself if issues arise.What makes this episode particularly valuable is how it addresses real-world scenarios: When should you disclose your condition? What happens if your accommodation request is denied? How do you balance transparency with privacy? As Abbe points out, "These protections exist to help you succeed—never be afraid to ask for what you need." Whether you're currently employed, job hunting, or supporting someone with IBD, this episode provides crucial knowledge to navigate workplace challenges with confidence and dignity.Links: Abbe's first episode with usUS Equal Employment Opportunity CommissionInfo on the Americans with Disabilities ActInfo on the Family Medical Leave ActEmployee and Employer resources- Crohn's & Colitis Foundation- USALet's get social!!Follow us on Instagram!Follow us on Facebook!Follow us on Twitter!
