For years, I quietly dealt with painful Hidradenitis Suppurativa until a surprising conversation with a friend told me how laser hair removal was a gamechanger for her HS. I was skeptical, but it ultimately became the HS treatment that made the biggest difference in my flares.In this episode, I'm sharing my experience with this treatment, who is most likely to benefit, types of lasers that work best, and how to possibly get this covered by your insurance. While this isn't a “root cause” fix for HS, it certainly can bring you relief if you're the right candidate for it, AND what you can do to then get at what's driving all that inflammation in the first place!⭐️Mentioned in This Episode:- See all the references + the HS laser hair removal insurance request form

Sponsored by the Institute for Functional Nursing. Learn more about our programs at www.fxnursing.com. The Functional Nurse Podcast is celebrating its 100th episode! In this milestone episode, Dr. Brigitte Sager reflects on the evolution of functional nursing—from the early conversations that inspired this podcast to a growing movement of nurses and nurse practitioners bringing root-cause, holistic, and personalized care into healthcare. With that foundation established, Brigitte looks ahead to an important next chapter: strengthening the evidence for functional nursing through research, quality improvement, evidence-based practice, and meaningful patient outcomes. Brigitte explores how nurses and nurse practitioners can help shape the future of functional medicine by asking better clinical questions and studying what actually improves patient care. She shares ideas for DNP projects, PhD research, capstones, quality improvement initiatives, patient-reported outcomes, and practice-based research—including nutrition assessments, functional medicine screening tools, group visits, nurse coaching, access to care, patient satisfaction, and clinician outcomes. She also discusses the Institute for Functional Medicine's approach to studying the complete functional medicine care model and why systems thinking, antecedents, triggers and mediators, modifiable lifestyle factors, and personalization matter when evaluating functional care. Whether you're currently in nursing school, considering an advanced degree, or simply want to help transform healthcare, this episode invites nurses to help build the evidence that can move functional nursing forward.

Functional medicine promised to move healthcare beyond disease labels, symptom management, and one-size-fits-all treatment. But increasingly, it is recreating the very disease model it was meant to replace—masked by less-conventional diagnoses and arrays of supplements instead of prescriptions. In this opening episode of a new Beyond the Biomarkers series, Kerri Rachelle examines how root-cause care lost its way: prescription cascades becoming supplement cascades, test results becoming diagnoses they cannot establish, therapeutic nutrition becoming restriction, complexity being mistaken for personalization, and emerging science being presented with false certainty. She also explores why patients are still being left alone between appointments, why nutrition expertise must be central to any model built around food, and why Registered Dietitians should help lead the next chapter of functional medicine. This is not a rejection of functional medicine. It is an honest call to repair it. Follow Beyond the Biomarkers as each episode takes a deeper look at where functional medicine went wrong—and how we can build the thoughtful, evidence-based, whole-person model of care it was always supposed to become.

Ready to turn your gift for helping people into a real coaching career? Visit: https://riseandthriveglobal.com/positive-psychology-coaching/ Alli Schaper will tell you that the most important things she knows about living, she learned from mushrooms, including how to die. She is the CEO and cofounder of SuperMush, a functional mushroom brand backed by globally recognised artists, athletes and founders, a co-founder of Microdosing Collective, the first US nonprofit dedicated to legal microdosing advocacy, and the host of Into The Multiverse, a podcast exploring consciousness and psychedelics. Her path there did not begin on a stage. By the time she was 21, she had been prescribed around twelve different pharmaceutical medications for chronic gut issues she had carried since childhood. The tuning fork Alli’s way out was not a magic pill, and that, she says, was the whole lesson. Functional mushrooms, lion’s mane instead of high doses of caffeine, chaga for immune function, reishi to wind down for sleep, acted as what she calls a tuning fork for her nervous system. They slowed her down enough for her body to follow its natural rhythm, and for her gut, our second brain, to function well again. She is quick to add that not all mushrooms are made equal. The gold standard is the fruiting body of the fungus, double extracted through hot water and alcohol, and she is passionate about people learning to read the label of what they put in their body. The lie of the quick fix Society, Alli argues, has sold us a massive lie: that everything we take should fix us immediately. An Advil numbs the pain, a Xanax puts you to sleep. Adaptogens are different. They work to bring the body into homeostasis, and sometimes the first week feels worse, not better, as the body works through what it has been holding, the way a sauna stirs up what it is helping you release. Stay the course, she says, and the discomfort is the detox. What fungi know about death Then the conversation goes somewhere most wellness interviews never do. Humans share almost 50 per cent of our DNA with fungi, and Alli believes we have barely begun to learn from them. Beneath every step we take runs the mycelium network, and when something dies on the forest floor, the fungi decompose it and return its nutrients to the soil as new life. Mushrooms, she says, are great alchemisers of death and dying. That teaching became personal when her father passed away unexpectedly, five days before he was due to retire. Her whole family had experienced mushrooms together before he died, and it gave her mother, married to him for 36 years, a profoundly different relationship with grief. His passing also left Alli with a warning she now carries everywhere: beware destination happiness, the habit of parking your joy at some future date you may never reach. A breath between trigger and response Microdosing, Alli explains, is a sub-perceptual dose of a psychedelic taken like a supplement, no visuals, no hallucinations, on a protocol of a few days a week over about three months. By quieting the default mode network, where our habit loops live, it opens a window of neuroplasticity. Her favourite example is disarmingly ordinary: her mum calls, says something triggering, and where the old programme would answer like a six-year-old, microdosing gives her a breath to choose her response. Those subtle shifts, she believes, could change the world. It is not a panacea, she is careful to say, and used unconsciously psychedelics can cause real trouble. Used consciously, with reverence, they helped her look at herself honestly. Not a magic pill For 15 to 20 years, Alli sat on the crinkly paper of doctors’ offices waiting to be told what was wrong with her. The turning point was deciding her health was her own responsibility, and seeing clearly, in her words, how much of her life her mind was making her sick. What the mushrooms unlayered was something she believes we all carry underneath: your natural state is joy. Alli left us with three shiny golden nuggets. Functional mushrooms can be a tuning fork for your nervous system. Microdosing can create open-mindedness and the ability to pattern-interrupt yourself. And mushrooms are incredible teachers of death that can teach us how to live more fully. Watch the full conversation on YouTube.

What if your symptoms weren't your enemy—but your body's way of asking for help?In this fascinating and empowering episode of Linda's Corner Podcast, we sit down with Dr. Kelly McCann to explore the deeper meaning behind chronic illness, physical symptoms, and the body's incredible wisdom. Dr. Kelly is a pioneer in Functional, Integrative, and Environmental Medicine who specializes in uncovering the root causes of complex chronic conditions like Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS), mold toxicity, Lyme disease, and persistent infections.You can learn more about Dr. Kelly and her work at Dr. Kelly McCann's WebsiteAfter navigating her own serious health challenges—including mold exposure and Lyme disease—Dr. Kelly discovered how profoundly our thoughts, emotions, beliefs, and environment influence our physical health. Through her work at The Spring Center in California, she helps patients reconnect with their bodies, restore balance, and reclaim their vitality.During this conversation, we explored the relationship many people have with their bodies. Too often, we view the body as broken, inconvenient, or even the enemy. But Dr. Kelly teaches that the body is deeply intelligent and always communicating with us. Symptoms are not random punishments—they are messages guiding us toward healing.We discussed Mast Cell Activation Syndrome, a condition where the body's defense systems become hypersensitive and overreactive. Dr. Kelly shared the powerful idea that our mindset and emotional state can influence our susceptibility to toxins and illness. Two people may experience the same toxic exposure, yet one becomes very ill while the other does not. Why? According to Dr. Kelly, our internal beliefs, stress patterns, emotional wounds, and nervous system regulation all play a significant role in how the body responds.She explained how thoughts such as “I'm not safe,” “I'm not good enough,” or “My body is failing me” can create chronic stress patterns that are reflected physically in the body. Rather than blaming ourselves, Dr. Kelly encourages us to become curious and compassionate toward our symptoms and to recognize them as invitations to heal more deeply.We also discussed her transformational masterclass, The Unforgetting Project, which teaches that we are already whole and enough—we have simply forgotten who we truly are beneath the conditioning of the world. From childhood onward, many people absorb messages that they are flawed, unsafe, or unworthy. Dr. Kelly believes healing involves “unforgetting” our true nature and reconnecting with our authentic selves.One of the most practical insights she shared was the importance of allowing emotions to fully move through the body instead of suppressing them. She explained that emotions often complete their natural cycle in about 60–90 seconds if we allow ourselves to feel them fully without resistance. By noticing sensations in the body, identifying the associated emotion, and allowing it to flow through us, we can release trapped emotional energy and create space for healing.This episode is a powerful reminder that healing is not just physical—it's emotional, mental, spiritual, and deeply personal. If you've struggled with chronic symptoms, unexplained illness, or feeling disconnected from your body, this conversation offers hope, insight, and a compassionate new perspective.In This Episode We Discuss:Listening to the wisdom of the body The mind-body connection Why symptoms may actually be messages from the bodyMast Cell Activation Syndrome and hypersensitive defense systemsMold toxicity, Lyme disease, and environmental illnessThe impact of thoughts like “I'm not safe” or “I'm not enough”Nervous system regulation and susceptibility to illnessLearning to trust the wisdom of the bodyEmotional processing and allowing feelings to complete their cycleDr. Kelly's “Unforgetting Project”Remembering that we are already enoughListen and ConnectTo learn more about Dr. Kelly McCann and her work, visit: Dr. Kelly McCann Official WebsiteListen, Share, and SupportIf this episode resonated with you, please share it with someone who may need hope today.Be sure to subscribe, leave a rating and review, and help us spread more healing and inspiration to the world.Free Resource for HealingIf you're ready to release stress, calm your mind, and begin healing from within, visit:

ADHD is usually treated as a problem in the brain. But what if some of the factors making it harder to focus, regulate your mood, or manage your symptoms are actually coming from somewhere else in your body? In this episode, I'm joined by one of my producers, Emma, to explore ADHD through a functional medicine lens. We look beyond the diagnosis to ask what may be happening “under the hood”—from the gut and microbiome to inflammation, nutrient deficiencies, blood sugar, hormones, and the foods we eat. Because the brain doesn't operate in isolation. What happens throughout the body can directly influence how it functions. Here's what we discuss in today's episode: The surprising connection between your gut and your ability to focus—even if you have no digestive symptoms What I look for beyond the brain when someone comes to me with ADHD The everyday foods and nutrient deficiencies that may be quietly making ADHD symptoms worse Why two people with the same ADHD diagnosis may have completely different underlying drivers What caffeine, skipping breakfast, food dyes, sugar cravings, and menopause may mean for ADHD symptoms Where I would start if an adult came to me newly diagnosed with ADHD ADHD may begin with symptoms in the brain, but that doesn't mean the brain is the only place we should look. By understanding the connections between diet, gut health, inflammation, nutrients, hormones, and brain function, we can start asking a more useful question: What is making it harder for each person's brain to function at its best?

The Greenfield Lab's long-standing research interests focus on basic and translational aspects of bone biology, and on osteosarcoma metastasis. The osteosarcoma project aims to repurpose FDA-approved drugs to block growth of lung metastases, which is the primary cause of lethality in osteosarcoma patients. Current studies utilize 3D sarcosphere cultures and mouse models.Dr. Greenfield earned his undergraduate degree in biology from New College of Florida and master's and doctoral degrees in marine biology and biomineralization, respectively, from the University of the North Carolina at Chapel Hill. He completed post-doctoral studies in bone cell biology at Washington University in St. Louis before joining the faculty at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland in 1990, where he remained before moving to Indianapolis in 2019 to join the IUSM Department of Orthopaedic Surgey, the Indiana Center for Musculoskeletal Health, and the Indiana University Simon Cancer Center.

Let's start this discussion with two truths.

In this solo episode, Bradley Hamner breaks down the three functional areas of a business: growth, delivery and fulfillment, and operations. Owners lean hard into one of them based on what they did before they started the company, and that tilt shows up in the books they read, the conferences they attend, and the problems they instinctively reach for.Bradley explains how growth splits further into marketing and sales, why a strong sales background often leaves the marketing function underbuilt, and why operations is the area he sees optimized least. He closes with a three-step thinking exercise: name the area you lean into, name the area that needs the most work, then decide whether the fix is a hire or a system.This conversation moves beyond self-assessment and into the decision that follows it. Which area gets your attention by default? Which one is quietly capping the company? And once you find the gap, do you build the role or build the system?

Why are so many young women experiencing painful periods, endometriosis, Hashimoto's and hormonal chaos? After falling ill with Graves Disease in medical school, functional endocrinologist Dr. Cassie Smith made it her life's mission to chase these kinds of questions. In her new book Fix Your Gut, Fix Your Hormones (https://a.co/d/0gbCrVD6) she tackles the real gut-hormone connection behind estrogen dominance, PCOS, thyroid dysfunction, and painful periods. Dr. Smith shares the answers she found, a roadmap for better health, better periods and common-sense steps to become the CEO of your own health.  In this episode you will learn:  Why younger women are struggling with their periods Why low progesterone is so common in women in their 20s How constipation and poor fiber intake worsen PMS, bloating, and breast tenderness The impact of long-term birth control use on hormone production Simple, affordable lab tests most OBs don't order but should Exactly how your gut affects your hormones, step by step, by way of your vagus nerve. How a young person could experience a cycle of stress, a bacteria or strep infection, then their antibiotics for treating the strep as well as birth control and acid-blockers can impair their guts affecting their cycle. How, if, as women, our estrogen leaves our body down the four-hydroxy pathway (the pathway that can lead to cancer), more often when we have increased visceral fat, excess stress or intense gut dysbiosis. How important our health is, and the value in taking responsibility for our good health. Self-value, seeing the sun enough in a day and movement all play a role in balancing our hormones.   Not only can excess estrogen affect our moods, but it puts extra stress on our bodies revving up our cortisol and lowering progesterone (the calming hormone), throwing our mood and sleep out the window.  Nutritional changes can make a difference. Avoid sugar in your food and drinks (read the  labels!), and aim for thirty-five grams of fiber for regular, healthy bowel movements. Estrogen dominance from dysbiosis doesn't necessarily mean you have enough of the estrogen you need.  How having a Dutch test every few years is incredibly useful for locating early signs of hormonal imbalances.  A roadmap to fix painful periods. Laser in on how much sugar you're eating (and drinking!) Don't eat wheat made in America if you have Hashimotos, because it may cause a high TPO antibody to attack your thyroid. How babies rely on their mother's thyroid until 18 weeks in-utero, so if you want to get pregnant, optimizing your thyroid is a must.  Want more of The Ancient Health Podcast?

If your face has gotten redder, more reactive and burning in your in your 40s or 50s (or your rosacea seems much worse), perimenopause rosacea could be an important piece of the puzzle. Emerging research suggests shifting hormone levels can trigger and also influence rosacea symptoms, including acne bumps, reactive skin, flushing, burning, stinging + increased skin sensitivity.Before you JUST blame this all on hormones, hormone-triggered rosacea must be looked at from a few different perspectives. In this episode, I'm diving into fascinating research connecting hormones, your gut microbiome + rosacea severity, plus what to consider when the usual rosacea fixes aren't giving you sustainable results.⭐️Mentioned in This Episode:- See all the references

ADHD can go unnoticed for decades, especially in women who learn to compensate through perfectionism, overpreparing, and working under pressure. It often isn't until the demands of work, motherhood, or another major life transition become too much that the underlying struggle comes into view. In this episode, I sit down with ADHD counselor Jenna Free, author of The Simple Guide to ADHD Regulation, to explore what she calls the frantic-crash cycle. She explains how chronic fight-or-flight may intensify ADHD symptoms and why nervous system regulation can make other tools and strategies easier to use. You'll learn: Why women and high achievers can compensate for ADHD for decades before their usual coping strategies stop working How perfectionism, procrastination, and working under pressure can keep the frantic-crash cycle going The physical signs of nervous system dysregulation, including shallow breathing, muscle tension, and rushing even when there's no real urgency Why calming your body is only the first step in creating lasting change How you can move away from all-or-nothing behavior and build a more sustainable way of getting things done A diagnosis can help you understand how your brain works, but it doesn't have to define what's possible. By learning to recognize and regulate survival mode, you can create the conditions for your brain to work at its best.

What if your fertility tests say everything is “normal,” but you still can't get or stay pregnant because the right things haven't actually been tested?If you've spent months or even years trying to conceive, only to be told that your standard fertility workup looks normal, you may feel like you're running out of answers. This episode explores why a conventional fertility workup may not reveal the underlying factors affecting conception or pregnancy and what a more comprehensive, fertility-specific investigation can uncover.Dr. Katie Wood walks through six areas that can provide a more complete picture of your fertility, including blood markers, gut health, the vaginal microbiome, hormone patterns across the cycle, food sensitivities, and cellular nutrient status. Instead of guessing with supplements or following protocols designed for someone else, the goal is to understand your individual data and use it to guide targeted next steps.By listening to this episode, you'll discover...-Why a standard fertility workup may leave important pieces of your fertility picture unexplored.-The six key areas Dr. Katie evaluates to uncover potential root causes affecting conception and pregnancy.-How having more complete, personalized data can help you stop guessing and begin creating a fertility strategy based on what your body actually needs.Press play to discover what may be missing from your fertility workup and learn how a more complete picture could help you take more targeted steps toward getting and staying pregnant.

Send us Fan MailYou've been given two options for how to address what's happening in your body, and both of them have failed you. Conventional medicine told you nothing was wrong. Functional medicine told you everything was wrong and handed you a $2,000 lab panel, a fourteen-supplement stack, and a protocol you couldn't sustain. And somewhere in the middle you've been quietly wondering if you're the problem.You're not. Both models are broken — and not because you haven't found the right practitioner. The entire framework of how they approach your body is wrong.In this episode, Kacey dismantles both models honestly. Where conventional medicine is genuinely good, where it fails you, and why. What "good" functional medicine as currently practiced actually is — aggressive protocols and expensive supplements delivered without follow-through. Two composite client stories that name the exact patterns of failure you might recognize. And a deeper look at order of operations — why so many "good" protocols by well-intentioned practitioners don't work, and what needs to happen instead.Plus: a first look at the third way. The care model that isn't another protocol — that respects the life you actually have and builds something you can actually live with.Come back next week for the full picture of what that looks like.This week's Kick Rocks: to the "run labs, email PDF, disappear for three months" model of functional medicine.New episodes weekly.

Meet Colin Christensen, the entrepreneur who turned "mushrooms and chocolate" into a fast-growing Canadian functional food brand — and made it taste like chocolate, not sand. MyCAO (a mashup of mycelia + cacao) started almost by accident. Hired as CEO of a psilocybin company waiting on regulation, Colin needed a revenue stream and stumbled into the functional mushroom space. A conversation with a high-end Edmonton chocolatier flipped his original "Canadian MUD/WTR" idea on its head — and four months later, MyCAO was making revenue. In this episode, Colin walks Phil and Kenny through the real formulation challenge behind the brand: getting a full, effective gram of a single mushroom species into every button without the gritty, sandy texture that plagues most mushroom products. The team leaned on renowned herbalist Robert Rogers, sourced full-spectrum mushrooms from a GMP-grade Canadian grower, and paired everything with Valrhona dark chocolate. The result is a functional dose you'd actually want to eat. It's a sharp look at building a differentiated CPG brand in a crowded wellness category — where dose, quality, and format are the whole game.

Rick Alexander is a depth-psychological counselor, psychedelic practitioner, and interfaith spiritual care provider currently completing his Ph.D. in Mythology/Depth Psychology and a former Naval Special Operations combat medic. Rick was a Special Operations combat medic until a single psychedelic experience shattered his worldview and sent him back to school to study psychedelic spiritual care. He and Dr. Mike dig into neuroplasticity windows, why “good trip/bad trip” is the wrong question, and what may really be happening in DMT space. Expect to learn how a rough teenage salvia trip and a later psilocybin experience redirected Rick's entire career, what life is really like as a Special Operations Combat Medic supporting SEALs and Green Berets, why military training narrows emotional range and makes civilian re-entry so hard, how integration (not the trip itself) determines whether a psychedelic experience heals or destabilizes you, what the "third wave" of psychedelic science gets right that the DSM's "hallucinogen" label gets wrong, whether neuroplastic windows could help athletes learn skills faster, and what a brutal 5-MeO-DMT experience taught Rick about his own running form and breathing.

Sponsored by the Institute for Functional Nursing. Learn more about our programs at www.fxnursing.com. What does functional nursing look like in Canada? In this episode of the Functional Nurse Podcast, Samantha Hamilton MSN-Ed, RN is joined by Canadian nursing professionals Megan Kroeker MSN, NP, FMCP-M, Mat Chartrand, NP, and Tabetha Hystad, RN, BSN, to explore how nurses and nurse practitioners are bringing functional medicine into the Canadian healthcare landscape. They discuss the realities of working within a publicly funded, often reactive healthcare system and why more nurses are becoming interested in prevention, integrative medicine, patient education, and root-cause care. The conversation dives into some of the biggest questions Canadian nurses have about functional nursing, including career opportunities, private practice, scope of practice, functional lab testing, supplements, and the differences between practicing as an RN versus a NP. Megan also shares her experience building a virtual functional medicine practice in Ontario, while Mat and Tabetha discuss how they hope to incorporate their functional nursing education into their careers. Throughout the episode, the guests share why they believe Canadian nurses are uniquely positioned to help patients become more informed, proactive participants in their health and why functional nursing may represent an exciting new direction for nurses looking beyond the traditional healthcare model.

Many women with PCOS are told their labs look normal while continuing to experience very real and persistent symptoms. In this episode we explore the important distinction between normal lab ranges, which are built around population averages designed to flag significant dysfunction, and optimal physiology, which is what actually supports hormone health, energy, cycle regularity, and overall wellbeing.Insulin Resistance with Normal Glucose: The Most Common Missing PieceNormal fasting glucose does not rule out insulin resistance. And for women with PCOS, this distinction is one of the most significant and most overlooked gaps in standard testing. In this episode we explain exactly how insulin resistance can develop and actively drive PCOS symptoms, including irregular cycles, acne, cravings, and weight changes, long before glucose breaks out of the normal range.Symptoms and Hormone Signaling: Why the Body Speaks Before the Labs DoHormone signaling changes gradually over time. And symptoms often appear during the compensation phase, before dysfunction becomes obvious on a lab panel. In this episode we explore why symptoms are meaningful physiological data that deserve attention and context rather than dismissal.Functional vs Conventional Perspectives on PCOS TestingStandard lab panels are valuable tools. But they are designed for a specific purpose and have real limitations when it comes to catching early stage hormonal and metabolic dysfunction. In this episode we offer a balanced, nuanced perspective on the value and the limitations of conventional testing for women with PCOS.Stress Physiology and What Basic Labs Often MissCortisol dysregulation, adrenal strain, and early inflammatory load may not always show clearly on a basic lab panel. But they produce real, measurable symptoms in the women experiencing them. In this episode we discuss how stress physiology affects PCOS hormone health in ways that standard testing frequently underestimates.Ovulation and Metabolism: What Cycle Changes Actually CommunicateThe menstrual cycle is one of the most sensitive vital signs a woman has. Cycle irregularity or absence often reflects whole-body physiological stress long before other markers flag on a standard panel. In this episode we explore what cycle changes are actually communicating about metabolic and hormonal health.Understanding Body Feedback: Why Physiological Literacy Changes EverythingPhysiological literacy, the ability to read your own symptom experience as meaningful body feedback, is one of the most empowering tools a woman with PCOS can develop. In this episode we introduce what physiological literacy looks like in practice and why understanding your body's communication changes the entire healing experience.You can take the quiz to discover your root cause hereLearn more about the PCOS Root Cause BootcampLet's continue the conversation on Instagram! What did you find helpful in this episode and what follow-up questions do you have?The full list of Resources & References Mentioned can be found on the Episode webpage at:  https://nourishedtohealthy.com/ep-194

Bone loss can happen silently for years, which is why osteoporosis isn't often discovered until you break a bone. In this episode, we explore why osteoporosis isn't simply an inevitable part of aging, plus the medications, nutrition, exercise, inflammation, and gut-bone connection that may influence your fracture risk.We'll also unpack some surprising problems with DEXA scans, including why improving your bone density score doesn't always mean your fracture risk has improved. You'll learn what else matters for building stronger bones and why protecting bone health should start long before an osteoporosis diagnosis.My guest is Dr. John Neustadt, ND, an integrative and functional medicine expert and bestselling author of Fracture-Proof Your Bones. He has published more than 100 medical articles and is internationally recognized for his work on osteoporosis and fracture prevention.⭐️Mentioned in This Episode:- See all the references

Recorded live at SOMA 26Dr. Emily Johnston (Cascadia Mountain Institute) and SFC Ezequiel Mendoza (Arctic Dustoff, Fairbanks) deliver a hard-hitting, field-validated look at how standard tactical medical gear and medications actually perform—and fail—in true Arctic and extreme cold conditions. Drawing from cold-soak testing, simulated combat exercises, and real operational experience, they break down battery and fluid-warmer failures, rapid freezing of IV tubing and blood sets, medication storage realities, tourniquet performance, and the critical need for early frostbite interventions like ibuprofen and iloprost far forward. Practical fieldcraft solutions, insulation strategies, and clear calls for better-designed cold-weather medical systems are front and center.Key TakeawaysNo electronic or mechanical medical device (IV pumps, Buddy Lite warmers, etc.) can be trusted to operate unprotected in Arctic conditions—insulate everything, including fluids and tubing.Fluids and tubing freeze extremely quickly and become brittle; passive warming solutions using insulated containers + chemical heat packs can keep fluids viable for many hours even at –20°F to –30°F.Body heat (base-layer transport systems worn against the skin) is the only reliably consistent way to prevent medication freezing during multi-day cold operations; outer pockets, med boxes, and sling packs routinely fail.Current blood administration sets create major clotting and failure points in the cold; shorter, fully insulated, or redesigned kits are needed.Most common tourniquets performed adequately after freeze-thaw cycles; metal windlasses held up better than plastic ones under extreme cold.Reperfusion injury is the dominant mechanism of tissue loss in frostbite. Early NSAID (ibuprofen) loading and rapid iloprost administration dramatically improve outcomes, yet cold-chain and far-forward delivery of iloprost remain unsolved problems.Manufacturer claims about extreme-cold performance often do not match real-world Arctic testing. Independent field validation is essential before relying on any device or medication in these environments.Chapters00:00 – Introduction & Arctic strategic context04:45 – Operational realities: long evacuation times and limited cold-weather experience06:00 – Battery and device cold-soak testing (IV pump & Buddy Lite)09:20 – Functional testing: frozen pumps, ruptured warmer cartridges, and fluid output11:40 – Practical insulation and pre-warming techniques for fluids13:40 – Medication transport failures vs. base-layer body-heat solutions18:50 – Blood product challenges and call for redesigned cold-weather kits20:20 – Tourniquet performance after freeze-thaw cycles21:15 – Frostbite pathophysiology and the critical role of early ibuprofen + iloprost27:20 – Path forward: needed research, device redesign, and medication stability after freezing29:40 – Closing remarks and Q&A discussionFor more content, go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.prolongedfieldcare.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Consider supporting us: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠patreon.com/ProlongedFieldCareCollective⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.lobocoffeeco.com/product-page/prolonged-field-care⁠⁠⁠⁠

GLP-1 medications have changed how we treat obesity and metabolic disease. But as their use has exploded, so have questions about side effects, muscle loss, long-term use, and whether patients are receiving the support they need to use them safely. In this episode, I reconnect with metabolic health and regenerative medicine expert Dr. Tyna Moore to revisit our conversation from two years ago and examine what we've learned since. We discuss: How to tell when your GLP-1 dose may be too high What you can do to protect your muscle and bone during weight loss Which metabolic and nutritional markers should you check before and during treatment Why weight can sometimes return after stopping a GLP-1 What emerging research suggests about GLP-1s beyond weight loss GLP-1s can be life-changing, but a lower number on the scale isn't the same as better health. Ultimately, how these medications are used—from dosing and monitoring to nutrition and strength training—matters just as much as whether they're used at all.

What do you do when you're living with pain and symptoms, but your bloodwork and doctor's appointments aren't giving you the answers you're looking for?In this episode of Confidently Balance Your Hormones, Dee Davidson, FDN-P, sits down with her client Bonnie, who originally came to Dee through a referral after struggling with pain and wanting a deeper understanding of what was happening inside her body.Like so many people, Bonnie had gone through traditional bloodwork and medical appointments, yet she still felt like pieces of her health puzzle were missing.Rather than continuing to guess, Bonnie decided to take a root-cause approach using functional lab testing.In this candid client conversation, Bonnie shares her personal experience of working with Dee, what she learned about her body through testing, the changes she implemented, and what happened as she began looking beyond symptoms and focusing on the bigger picture.You'll hear them discuss:• What brought Bonnie to functional health in the first place • The frustration of having symptoms without clear answers • Why “normal” conventional bloodwork doesn't necessarily tell the entire story • How functional testing can provide additional information about areas such as gut health, minerals, nutrition, inflammation, hormones, and environmental stressors • The importance of connecting lab findings with symptoms, lifestyle, and health history • Why personalized recommendations can look very different from a cookie-cutter wellness plan • What Bonnie learned about becoming an advocate for her own health • The changes she noticed throughout her journeyAnd there was an especially meaningful moment after we finished recording.Bonnie sent Dee a beautiful message thanking her for how much she had helped her.This is exactly why Dee does this work.It's not about chasing every symptom with another supplement.It's about helping people ask better questions, investigate potential underlying contributors, understand their bodies more deeply, and finally feel empowered to participate in their own health journey.If you've ever been told “everything looks normal” while knowing that you don't feel normal, Bonnie's story is an episode you'll want to hear.Hit play and hear Bonnie's journey in her own words.Schedule a discovery session with Board Certified Functional Health Practitioner, Dee Davidson:https://calendly.com/confidentlyloveyourself/discovery-session?back=1&month=2026-08Medical Disclaimer: This podcast is for educational and informational purposes only and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.

Listener 'Sarah' tells us about the burden and resentment she feels at caring for a parent who is in her 90s, when she is a pensioner too. This is the time she thought she would have for herself. Clare Jefferies, who co-runs care companies and has written the book: I'm Your Daughter, Not Your Carer, and Caroline Abrahams, charity director of Age UK, discuss the problem with Kylie Pentelow.Have you ever considered working in boat building? We were contacted by Women in Boat Building, a community of women working hands-on in the industry, who wanted to tell us about their experiences and raise the profile of a trade that's largely male-dominated. Abbey Molyneux, a traditional boat builder who runs her own boatyard in Norfolk and is a director of Women in Boat Building, and Vanessa Larmond, who's just starting out in the industry in Southwold, Suffolk, tell us what it is like.Do you ever use dialect when you speak? Do you think of yourself as having an accent? How do you feel about the way you sound? A listener in Yorkshire, Christina Longden, has got in touch with a request to hear from women like herself who are actively keeping regional dialect alive, an endeavour which she says has traditionally been the preserve of men. Christina would also like to discuss accent and dialect bias and why, she says, men have always been more permitted to speak in dialect than women. To discuss why what you say and how you say it still matters and how it's influenced by gender, presenter Chloe is joined from Yorkshire by Christina Longden, a council member of the Yorkshire Dialect Society; by Diana Rackham, chair of Friends of Norfolk Dialect; and by Rob Drummond, professor of sociolinguistics at Manchester Metropolitan University.In two weeks' time, thousands of young people will open their GCSE results - but what about those who don't get the grade 4 they need in maths and English? 41% of pupils in maths and 29% in English won't reach that benchmark, and 82% fail their resits, blocking their path to A levels, T Levels and BTECs. Listener Hannah Gee highlights a hidden alternative: Functional Skills, which have a 60–80% pass rate. Chloe Tilley talks to Hannah and her son Joe, and Claire Green from the Association of School and College leaders.Do men make more noise than women? One of our listeners thinks so and wrote: ‘It seems like a bit of frivolity, maybe, but it is blooming annoying, and I started to wonder if there is something psychological behind it: the noise men make when there is no need to make a noise at all. The coughing, sniffing, ‘ahhing' as they get up and down, the belching, farting etc. It seems to get worse as they get older; or is it that women become less tolerant? Women seem to be silent in a room, but their other half is constantly making some sort of noise.' Janet Street-Porter and Tim Dowling discuss.Presenter: Chloe Tilley Producer: Annette Wells

In two weeks' time, thousands of young people will open their GCSE results — but what about those who don't get the grade 4 they need in Maths and English? 41% of pupils in Maths and 29% in English won't reach that benchmark, and 82% fail their resits, blocking their path to A levels, T Levels and BTECs.

What if the fatigue, brain fog, joint pain, or mysterious symptoms you've been chasing for years weren't caused by stress, aging, or burnout—but by a tick bite you never even noticed? Lyme disease is one of the most misunderstood illnesses in medicine. But Lyme is rarely just one infection—it's often part of a much bigger picture involving co-infections, immune dysfunction, inflammation, gut health, and environmental triggers. In today's episode, I walk through a functional medicine approach to Lyme disease and tick-borne illness, including: Why Lyme disease is so often missed—and the hidden role of co-infections like Babesia, Bartonella, Ehrlichia, and Anaplasma The limitations of conventional testing and treatment, and how functional medicine looks beyond the infection to understand why some people recover while others remain chronically ill The role of herbs, antibiotics, gut repair, detoxification, immune support, and mitochondrial health in a comprehensive recovery plan What the latest evidence says about emerging therapies like ozone, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, and hyperthermia—as well as practical strategies to prevent tick-borne illness in the first place Lyme disease isn't always just an infection—it's often a whole-body disruption. By addressing the underlying drivers of inflammation, immune dysfunction, gut health, and cellular resilience alongside the infection itself, you give your body the best chance to heal and recover.
