In this fascinating deep dive, Dr. Scott Watier and Tommy Welling break down a landmark study from Nature Metabolism that tracked what happens inside the body during a seven-day water fast — and the findings go far beyond weight loss. The hosts walk through the three distinct phases of an extended fast, explaining how the first 48 hours switches the body into fat-burning mode, day three triggers a dramatic biological renovation involving immune function, brain health, and cardiovascular protection, and days five through seven begin locking in longer-lasting metabolic changes. One of the most reassuring takeaways is around lean muscle loss — the hosts explain why the apparent muscle decrease during a longer fast is largely water and glycogen, not actual tissue, and how fat loss from the fast is what actually stays off. They also address how everyday fasters can capture some of these deeper benefits through consistent fasting windows, strategic low-carb nutrition opportunities, and proper electrolyte support without needing to do a week-long fast. The episode closes with practical guidance on how to break an extended fast gently — starting with easy proteins and healthy fats — and a challenge to pull out the calendar and schedule your next longer reset before the week is out. ⁠⁠⁠Take the NEW FASTING PERSONA QUIZ! - The Key to Unlocking Sustainable Weight Loss With Fasting!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Resources and Downloads: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SIGN UP FOR THE DROP OF THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO BLOOD SUGAR CONTROL⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠GRAB THE OPTIMAL RANGES FOR LAB WORK HERE! - NEW RESOURCE! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FREE RESOURCE - DOWNLOAD THE NEW BLUEPRINT TO FASTING FOR FAT LOSS!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SLEEP GUIDE DIRECT DOWNLOAD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠DOWNLOAD THE FASTING TRANSFORMATION JOURNAL HERE!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Partner Links: Get your⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ FREE BOX OF LMNT⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ hydration support for the perfect electrolyte balance for your fasting lifestyle with your first purchase⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ here!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Get ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠25% off a Keto-Mojo⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ blood glucose and ketone monitor (discount shown at checkout)! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Click here!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Our Community: Let's continue the conversation.

Send us Fan MailFor decades, the war on cancer has focused on destroying cancer cells directly - with chemotherapy, radiation, and targeted drugs. But what if the future of cancer treatment is not about attacking cancer ourselves...but teaching our own immune system to do it for us?Today we're exploring a new generation of immunotherapies designed to turn the body's own defenses into a precision weapon against cancer.Over the past decade, immunotherapies such as checkpoint inhibitors and CAR-T cell therapies have transformed the treatment landscape for many cancers. But major challenges remain - including limited response rates, treatment resistance, toxicity, and the enormous complexity and cost of manufacturing many next-generation therapies.Our guest today believes the next breakthrough may come from a new generation of personalized immunotherapies designed to activate a patient's own immune system against their cancer - while also being manufactured as an accessible, off-the-shelf treatment.Joining us is Dr. William Williams, MD - President and CEO of BriaCell Therapeutics ( https://briacell.com/ ).Dr. Williams brings more than 35 years of experience spanning academia and the biopharmaceutical industry. He has helped advance numerous medicines from discovery through clinical development, including work contributing to therapies such as Jakafi and Olumiant during his time at Incyte, and multiple oncology programs during his career at GlaxoSmithKline.Before entering industry leadership, Dr. Williams was a researcher at the University of Pennsylvania focused on molecular immunology, receptor biology, and early DNA vaccine approaches.Today we'll discuss the evolution of cancer immunotherapy, BriaCell's Bria-IMT platform, the challenges of treating advanced breast cancer, and whether the future of oncology lies in creating therapies that can truly mobilize each patient's own immune system.#CancerResearch #CancerImmunotherapy #Immunotherapy #CancerTreatment #Oncology #PrecisionMedicine #PersonalizedMedicine #Biotechnology #Biotech #LifeSciences #DrugDiscovery #ClinicalTrials #BreastCancer #MetastaticBreastCancer #CancerVaccine #CellTherapy #TumorImmunology #TCells #ImmuneSystem #MedicalInnovation #FutureOfMedicine #HealthcareInnovation #BiomedicalResearch #Pharma #PharmaceuticalInnovation #SciencePodcast #ProgressPotentialAndPossibilities #PPPShowSupport the show

In Episode Three of Clinical Misfits, Dr Mary explains about how the autonomic nervous system and the immune system provide a protective net over the entire person. As with the endocrine system, discussed in the last episode, coordination of activity has to be very tight to pull this off. If either system is dysregulated, both are and the body is left vulnerable. Worse, the immune system may attack the nervous system causing serious, debilitating disease. Or, the nervous system may trigger exaggerated immune responses to any number of environmental stressors that are not true physical threats to the body. The symptoms are familiar to us Clinical Misfits.Also in this episode, Dr Mary discusses how masking autistic traits undermines the Clinical Misfit's immune system, contributing to the physical illnesses that present in late-stage burnout.

Ric Scalzo began his exploration of herbal and naturopathic medicine in 1980, delving into fields such as Naturopathic Herbal Medicine, Eclectic Herbal Medicine, Ayurvedic Medicine, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and various diagnostic methods. He earned a master's degree in Herbal Medicine from the School of Herbal Medicine and was awarded an Honorary Doctorate of Naturopathic Medicine from Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine. After several years of medical practice, Ric founded Gaia Herbs in 1987 and grew Gaia to the most respected and successful herbal company in the country. After selling Gaia in 2019, Ric established the Institute of Botanical Research in Arizona and established CR Medicinal Farms, a regenerative organic farm in Costa Rica. These became the stepping stones for his new adventure called Kokora, a herbal products company focused on regenerative organic cultivation with a mission to "create the finest herbal remedies that promote health and vitality for all". Celebrated for his pioneering work in Herbal Medicine and his dedication to preserving herbal integrity for over four decades, Ric continues to innovate in the field and plays a key role in integrating regenerative agriculture with herbal medicine. In this episode, Ric Scalzo explores how regenerative herbal farming, constitution‑based botanical formulas, and aligned sleep practices can radically upgrade immune resilience, metabolic health, and inner‑outer environment regeneration.   RESOURCES: Learn more about Ric and Kokora Life here: http://kokoralife.com Instagram: @kokoralife Check out our previous episode with Ric here: https://www.taragarrison.com/blog/ricscalzo  Get 10% off Peluva minimalist shoe with coupon code COACHTARA here: http://peluva.com/coachtara   CHAPTERS:  00:00 – Ric Scalzo bio and herbal medicine journey. 00:30 – Founding Gaia Herbs and moving into regenerative farming. 00:59 – Why Ric's research farm and regenerative agriculture matter. 02:01 – New regenerative agriculture courses and Kokora Life. 02:32 – Sponsor: Peluva barefoot shoes story and offer. 04:19 – Interview begins: welcoming Ric back and setting the stage. 05:07 – Life in Costa Rica and fruit‑tree sanctuary. 05:59 – Turning a sugarcane monocrop into a regenerative organic farm. 07:04 – Soil microbiology, nutrient density, and immune resilience. 08:47 – Environmental toxins, plastics, and depleted soils as a "double whammy." 11:02 – Why regenerative agriculture is essential for diversity and life. 13:02 – Soil diversity, multiple crops, and gut microbiome parallels. 23:31 – Ric's clinical background, diagnostic methods, and constitutional herbal formulas. 28:33 – Mast cells, allergies, and Total Defense immune support philosophy. 31:24 – Immune stressors, nasal turbinates, silent onset, and inflammation research. 36:06 – Quick Response vs Total Defense: timing the immune "war." 36:06 – Higher Coaching, app, retreats, and lab‑based work. 41:43 – Sleep, circadian rhythm, angel train metaphor, and latency vs maintenance. 49:51 – Golden Milk Bliss, ojas, sattva, and nighttime nervous‑system support. 53:07 – Why to support Kokora and what regenerative agriculture provides.   WORK WITH TARA: Are You Looking for Help on Your Wellness Journey?

fWotD Episode 3352: Virus Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Thursday, 9 July 2026, is Virus.A virus is a submicroscopic infectious agent that replicates only inside the living cells of an organism. Viruses infect all life forms, from animals and plants to microorganisms, including bacteria and archaea. Viruses are found in almost every ecosystem on Earth and are the most numerous type of biological entity. Since Dmitri Ivanovsky's 1892 article describing a non-bacterial pathogen infecting tobacco plants and the discovery of the tobacco mosaic virus by Martinus Beijerinck in 1898, more than 16,000 of the millions of virus species have been described in detail. The study of viruses is known as virology, a subspeciality of microbiology.When infected, a host cell is often forced to rapidly produce thousands of copies of the original virus. When not inside an infected cell or in the process of infecting a cell, viruses exist in the form of independent viral particles, or virions, consisting of (i) genetic material, i.e., long molecules of DNA or RNA that encode the structure of the proteins by which the virus acts; (ii) a protein coat, the capsid, which surrounds and protects the genetic material; and in some cases (iii) an outside envelope of lipids. The shapes of these virus particles range from simple helical and icosahedral forms to more complex structures. Most virus species have virions too small to be seen with an optical microscope and are one-hundredth the size of most bacteria.The origins of viruses in the evolutionary history of life are still unclear. Some viruses may have evolved from plasmids, which are pieces of DNA that can move between cells. Other viruses may have evolved from bacteria. In evolution, viruses are an important means of horizontal gene transfer, which increases genetic diversity in a way analogous to sexual reproduction. Viruses are considered by some biologists to be a life form, because they carry genetic material, reproduce, and evolve through natural selection, although they lack some key characteristics, such as cell structure, that are generally considered necessary criteria for defining life. Because they possess some but not all such qualities, viruses have been described as "organisms at the edge of life" and as replicators.Viruses spread in many ways. One transmission pathway is through disease-bearing organisms known as vectors: for example, viruses are often transmitted from plant to plant by insects that feed on plant sap, such as aphids; and viruses in animals can be carried by blood-sucking insects. Many viruses spread in the air by coughing and sneezing, including influenza viruses, SARS-CoV-2, chickenpox, smallpox, and measles. Norovirus and rotavirus, common causes of viral gastroenteritis, are transmitted by the faecal–oral route, passed by hand-to-mouth contact or in food or water. The infectious dose of norovirus required to produce infection in humans is fewer than 100 particles. HIV is one of several viruses transmitted through sexual contact and by exposure to infected blood. The variety of host cells that a virus can infect is called its host range: this is narrow for viruses specialized to infect only a few species, or broad for viruses capable of infecting many.Viral infections in animals provoke an immune response that usually eliminates the infecting virus. Immune responses can also be produced by vaccines, which confer an artificially acquired immunity to the specific viral infection. Some viruses, including those that cause HIV/AIDS, HPV infection, and viral hepatitis, evade these immune responses and result in chronic infections. Several classes of antiviral drugs have been developed and around 100 individual antiviral drugs or combinations of them are used worldwide.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:26 UTC on Thursday, 9 July 2026.For the full current version of the article, see Virus on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Amy.

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Dr. Austin Perlmutter, chief science officer of Big Bold Health. 

Immune Regulation, Omega-3 Nuance, and Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat with Dr. Austin Perlmutter, chief science officer of Big Bold Health. He details immune regulation as a nuanced, multidimensional system shaped by diet and lifestyle rather than simple “boosting.” Perlmutter explains Big Bold Health's focus on immunometabolism, educating about immune complexity, and conducting studies on nutraceuticals, including use of CGMs and clinical trials. He discusses why eating fish often outperforms refined fish-oil supplements, noting conventional processing (heat, bleaching, deodorizing, esterification) and loss of other lipids and nutrients. Perlmutter highlights specialized pro-resolving mediators (resolvins, protectins, maresins) and vitamins A and D as potentially better preserved in minimally processed oils, and reviews typical omega-3 intake and target ranges. The conversation also covers immunosenescence/inflammaging and Big Bold Health research on sprouted Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat, its high polyphenols (rutin, quercetin), microbiome effects, and studies including epigenetic aging clocks and brain outcomes.

On this episode of Mark Bell's Power Project, Andrew Koutnik joins us to break down why exercise doesn't automatically make you immune to diabetes, insulin resistance, or blood sugar problems.We get into how fit athletes can still develop prediabetes, why carbohydrates and fats can become a problem when they're overconsumed together, and why your blood work can tell a very different story than how you look or how hard you train.Follow:  ⁨@andrewkoutnikphd⁩  www.andrewkoutnik.comSpecial perks for our listeners below!

Urolithin A (Mitopure) and Mitochondrial Renewal--Muscle, Immune, and Skin Benefits: Jen Scheinman, MS, RDN, CDN, Director of Science Communications at Timeline details urolithin A and Timeline's branded supplement Mitopure. She describes urolithin A's discovery through pomegranate research and worm studies showing a 45% lifespan increase. She discusses human research including improved walking distance and clinical outcomes in muscle endurance and strength. Urolithin A is presented as supporting mitochondrial health by promoting mitophagy—recycling damaged mitochondria—distinct from other mitochondrial supports like CoQ10 and NAD precursors. They explain most people cannot produce enough urolithin A from foods because only 30–40% convert precursors via the microbiome and it would require about six cups of pomegranate juice daily. Dosing discussed is 500–1,000 mg/day via gummies, capsules, or powder, with effects developing over months. She reviews emerging research on immune aging, preclinical work on brain and neurodegenerative conditions, and topical urolithin A for skin.

Make informed, immune-supportive health decisions Can you train your immune system to respond faster and more effectively? The answer may surprise you. In this episode of Live Foreverish, Dr. Mike and Dr. Crystal are joined by Dr. Sonja Nodland for an insightful conversation on strengthening immune resilience through the power of beta glucans. Together, they dive into the science behind immune training—covering optimal dosing, duration, and the research that matters most.

Shakings Coming (1) (audio) David Eells – 6-24-26 IT WILL SHAKE THE WORLD! Lynne Johnson 5-27-26 IAM, King Yeshuya wants you, My people to know that all will erupt soon in Iran. President Trump is playing a waiting game with the radicalized left in the IRGC for there are many factions vying for control. Trump is ensuring that when the United States military strikes Iran, the United States will have very few casualties. Trump doesn't want American casualties, therefore the United States is intending to use all intelligence being fathered to ensure few American casualties. When the U.S. Military strikes, there will be no doubt that the IRGC, in its radical form, is no longer in existence. Once assured of the success of this campaign, Trump will have the military pull back to the general areas away from Iran. Very shortly after the United States military pulls back from Iran, then Israel will strike. First, Damascus, Syria (a weapon depot) destroying it. Next, Israel will move against Iran's nuclear facilities along with their weapon depots. These strikes will effectively end Iran's nuclear program. Once this is concluded, then very shortly look for the First Event of MY Judgments (again these events of Mine, King Yeshuya, are not those of Tribulation, which are far worse, for a much longer time frame), the California earthquake which will shake the world as this earthquake is massive in size and in effect. I AM, King Yeshuya tells you this again so that you MY children, MY Believers are warned to plan, to prepare for what is soon to occur. IAM always warns ahead through MY prophets and messengers. Listen to My Words, heed My Warnings for they are to help protect you and your families. Continue MY children to come to ME in prayer, stay in MY Word, stay focused, stay calm. Come directly to ME, King Yeshuya with your queries. I AM will gladly answer you. IAM loves you MY children. Your King Yeshuya, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End, the Most High, Commander of heaven's hosts and armies, the Lion of Judah, the Prince of Peace. Scriptures: Psalm 20:7 NKJV “Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we will remember and trust in the name of the Lord our God.” Isaiah 43:2 NKJV “When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they will not overwhelm you. When you walk through fire, you will not be scorched, nor will the flame burn you.” Ezekiel 7:7 NKJV “Doom has come to you, you who dwell in the land; the time has come, a day of trouble is near, and not of rejoicing in the mountains.” Isaiah 17:1 NIV “A prophecy against Damascus: “See, Damascus will no longer be a city but will become a heap of ruins.” Isaiah 13:9 NKJV “Behold, the day of the Lord comes, cruel with both wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate; and He will destroy its sinners from it.” Isaiah 13:6 NKJV “Wait, for the day of the Lord is at hand! It will come as destruction from the Almighty.” John 14:29 NKJV “And now I told you before it comes, that when it does come to pass, you may believe.” Lamentations 3:25 NKJV “The Lord is good to those who wait for Him, to the soul who seeks Him.”   FAMINE WILL EXTEND WORLDWIDE Lynne Johnson – 5-9-26 I AM, King Yeshuya, would like MY people to know that it is soon for the “Iranian Conflict” to conclude. It will end as IAM has stated; the United States will deploy missiles, which will effectively end the IRGC Regime's control over Iran. Then the United States will pull back their military, leaving destroyers, aircraft carriers, and such in the area. Shortly after the United States military is pulled back, Israel will strike Damascus, the other weapon depots in Syria, then strike Iran's nuclear facilities and weapon depots. Israel will present the truth with proof that Iran fully intended to finish the building of nuclear bombs to destroy Israel. There will be the usual outcry, but no one will “lift a hand” against Israel, for all of the surrounding Arab nations know the truth. They also know that they were not safe from Iran's nuclear attacks. Again MY children, this is your marker to know that you only have a short time to finish getting your food, to prepare for what is coming, MY First Event – Judgment upon California. Do not put off procuring your food, your other necessities. Use cash as much as possible and by going to different stores. Do not discuss storing food with ANY OTHERS as IAM has clearly stated unless you have spoken directly with ME, King Yeshuya, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords to find out who you are able to trust. Ensure that you get your answer from ME, BEFORE you talk with others. If you choose not to listen to ME here, you and your family will suffer harm. People will become desperate quickly for food – any food that they are able to find. They do not wish to share, and they will harm others to get food. Those who have not done so recently or at all, are to read Jeremiah – ALL OF IT! You will see what hunger does to people. There will be few people who you will be able to trust now, so be discreet and come to ME, King Yeshuya to find out who you can SAFELY SHARE YOUR FOOD WITH. You must also accept MY answer as final. IAM alone sees the hearts, minds, thoughts and intentions of ALL people! You do not. You must also understand that the famine will extend worldwide. It will not be located only in specific cities, areas, or countries. With the famine, there will be deaths and then pestilences due to these deaths. IAM will give you more specific detail on this soon. FOR NOW YOUR JOB IS TO PREPARE. COME DIRECTLY TO ME WITH YOUR QUESTIONS AS I AM WILL GLADLY ANSWER YOU. MY BELOVED CHILDREN, STAY IN PRAYER TO ME, STAY IN MY WORD, STAY FOCUSED, STAY CALM. Your King Yeshuya, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, the Most High, the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End, the Lion of Judah, the Prince of Peace Scriptures: Isaiah 17:1 NKJV “The burden against Damascus. “Behold, Damascus will cease from being a city, and it will be a ruinous heap.” Luke 21:11 NKJV “And there will be great earthquakes in various places, and famines and pestilences; and there will be fearful sights and great signs from heaven.” Psalm 9:8 NKJV “He shall judge the world in righteousness, and He shall administer judgment for the people in uprightness.” Ecclesiastes 8:6 NKJV “Because for every matter there is a time and judgment, though the misery of man increases greatly.” Psalm 76:8 NKJV “You caused judgment to be heard from heaven; the earth feared and was still.” Deuteronomy 8:6 NKJV “Observe the commands of the LORD your God, walking in obedience to Him and revering Him.” Proverbs 15:11 NKJV “Hell and Destruction are before the Lord; so how much more the hearts of the sons of men.” Psalm 112:5 NKJV “A good man deals graciously and lends; he will guide his affairs with discretion.” Deuteronomy 32:24 NKJV “They shall be wasted with hunger, devoured by pestilence and bitter destruction; I will also send against them the teeth of beasts, with the poison of serpents of the dust.” Romans 12:12 NKJV “Rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation, continuing steadfastly in prayer,”   GOLDEN DOME MR POOL X - *GOLDEN DOME went fully operational on June 14, 2026.** Not announced.

PainExam Podcast Show Notes NAD+ Supplementation in Pain and Inflammation: Hype, Hope, or Emerging Science? Hosted by: PainExam Podcast Presented by: NRAP Academy (Neuromodulation, Regional Anesthesia & Pain) Host: David Rosenblum, MD Episode Overview In this episode of the PainExam Podcast, we explore the growing interest in NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) supplementation and its potential role in pain management, inflammation reduction, cellular recovery, and healthy aging. NAD+ is a naturally occurring coenzyme found in every living cell and is essential for energy production, mitochondrial function, DNA repair, and cellular resilience. As NAD+ levels decline with age, chronic stress, inflammation, and disease, researchers have begun investigating whether restoring NAD+ levels may improve outcomes in chronic pain conditions and inflammatory disorders. We review the current science, discuss potential mechanisms of action, and examine how NAD+ therapy is being integrated into regenerative medicine, wellness programs, and pain management practices. What is NAD+? NAD+ is a coenzyme involved in: ✅ Cellular energy production (ATP generation) ✅ Mitochondrial health ✅ DNA repair pathways ✅ Oxidative stress reduction ✅ Neuroprotection ✅ Cellular signaling ✅ Activation of longevity-associated proteins called sirtuins Without adequate NAD+, cells become less efficient at producing energy and managing inflammation. Why Might NAD+ Matter in Chronic Pain? Many chronic pain conditions involve: Mitochondrial dysfunction Oxidative stress Neuroinflammation Peripheral and central sensitization Impaired cellular recovery Researchers hypothesize that optimizing NAD+ levels may help address several of these pathways simultaneously. Potential areas of interest include: Neuropathic Pain NAD+ may support: Nerve repair Axonal recovery Mitochondrial function within neurons Reduction of oxidative injury Inflammatory Pain NAD+ influences inflammatory signaling pathways and may help modulate: Cytokine production Immune cell activity Cellular stress responses Fatigue and Recovery Patients with chronic pain frequently report: Fatigue Brain fog Reduced exercise tolerance Poor recovery Because NAD+ plays a critical role in energy metabolism, some clinicians report improvements in energy and recovery following supplementation. Potential Mechanisms of Action 1. Improved Mitochondrial Function Mitochondria generate ATP, the body's energy currency. Reduced NAD+ levels are associated with: Cellular aging Impaired energy production Increased inflammation Supplementation may help restore mitochondrial efficiency. 2. Activation of Sirtuins Sirtuins are proteins involved in: Cellular repair Longevity Metabolic regulation Inflammation control NAD+ serves as a critical substrate for sirtuin activity. 3. DNA Repair Support NAD+ is required for enzymes known as PARPs (Poly ADP Ribose Polymerases), which participate in DNA repair processes following cellular injury. 4. Reduction of Oxidative Stress Chronic inflammation often produces excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS). NAD+ may help maintain cellular antioxidant defenses and reduce oxidative injury. Routes of NAD+ Supplementation Intravenous (IV) NAD+ Most commonly marketed in wellness and recovery clinics. Potential advantages: Direct systemic delivery Avoids gastrointestinal absorption issues Allows higher dosing protocols Potential limitations: Cost Time commitment Variable evidence base Oral Precursors Rather than NAD+ itself, many supplements provide precursors such as: Nicotinamide Riboside (NR) Nicotinamide Mononucleotide (NMN) These compounds are converted into NAD+ within the body. What Does the Evidence Show? Current evidence remains preliminary. While preclinical and mechanistic studies are promising, large-scale randomized controlled trials evaluating NAD+ specifically for chronic pain are still limited. Areas under active investigation include: Neuropathic pain Neurodegenerative disorders Chronic fatigue syndromes Recovery optimization Healthy aging Patients should understand that NAD+ therapy remains an emerging treatment rather than a standard evidence-based pain intervention. Safety Considerations Reported side effects may include: Nausea Flushing Chest tightness during rapid infusions Headache Fatigue Lightheadedness Most adverse effects appear infusion-rate dependent and can often be minimized through slower administration protocols. Patients should discuss treatment with a qualified healthcare professional, especially if they have: Cardiovascular disease Active cancer Significant medical comorbidities Clinical Pearls for Pain Physicians ✔ Consider NAD+ as a potential adjunct—not a replacement—for evidence-based pain care. ✔ Continue emphasizing exercise, sleep optimization, nutrition, behavioral health, and appropriate interventional therapies. ✔ Discuss realistic expectations with patients. ✔ Recognize that evidence continues to evolve. ✔ Focus on patient-centered outcomes rather than laboratory markers alone. Key Takeaways NAD+ is essential for cellular energy production and repair. Declining NAD+ levels may contribute to aging, inflammation, and chronic disease. Early evidence suggests possible benefits in inflammation, recovery, fatigue, and nerve health. Robust pain-specific clinical trials remain limited. NAD+ therapy should currently be viewed as an adjunctive and investigational strategy in pain management.

Could Hashimoto's be the missing root cause behind your thyroid symptoms?If you have been told your thyroid labs are “fine,” or you are taking thyroid medication but still feel exhausted, foggy, inflamed, or not like yourself, this conversation will help you understand what may be happening underneath the surface. Hashimoto's is not just a thyroid problem. It is an immune system condition that can keep attacking the thyroid when the deeper triggers are never addressed.Inna Topiler, CNS, MS, is a Certified Nutrition Specialist who has navigated her own Hashimoto's journey for over 25 years. She is the host of Thyroid Mystery Solved: Hashimoto's and Hypothyroidism Revealed, and the creator of Thyroid Love, a 26-nutrient supplement formulated specifically for thyroid autoimmunity.In this conversation with Dr. Shivani Gupta, Inna explains the immune confusion behind Hashimoto's, why thyroid medication alone does not calm the immune attack, and what it really takes to support thyroid health at the root.What You'll Learn in This Episode:Why levothyroxine supports the thyroid but does not address the immune attack causing the damage?How to ask for a real full thyroid panel, and why TPO and TG antibodies matterThe four root cause buckets behind immune confusion: food, infections, toxins, and stressWhy gluten can trigger an immune attack on the thyroid through molecular mimicryThe truth about iodine supplementation with Hashimoto's, and why it often makes things worseHow selenium and inositol support thyroid hormone balance and immune regulationWhy zinc deficiency can be generational and how high copper compounds the problemWhat a thyroid supplement designed for autoimmunity should and should not includeThe Inflammation Codehttps://www.amazon.com/dp/140199699X?tag=usalinktagdefault-20&th=1&psc=1&geniuslink=trueFusionary Formulas SupplementsUse code CODE15 for 15% off your first orderhttps://fusionaryformulas.com/?utm_source=Show+Notes&utm_medium=Show+notes+&utm_campaign=Podcast+promo&utm_id=The+Inflammation+Code+Podcast7-Day Inflammation Detox Challengehttps://www.7dayinflammationdetox.com/Work with Dr. Shivani / Free Discovery Callhttps://shivanigupta.com/

Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (or CTCL) is a rare form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma that begins in T lymphocytes, a kind of white blood cell that plays a crucial role in the immune system. And Citius Oncology is focused on developing and commercialising a targeted immune therapy for the initial indication of the treatment of persistent or recurrent CTCL. In a new pharmaphorum podcast, web editor Nicole Raleigh spoke with Leonard Mazur, CEO and Chairman of Citius Pharmaceuticals about the launch of its first FDA-approved drug, Lymphir, for CTCL. Mazur discusses the landscape of unmet need in this space, as well as Citius' advancement of clinical trials in other areas without approved treatments and the future horizon for such oncological innovations.

Your immune system doesn't simply weaken with age; it reshapes itself in ways that change your risk for infections, cancer, and autoimmune disease, which affects how well your body recovers and stays resilient over time Women develop a more reactive and inflammatory immune system as they age, which strengthens defense against infections but raises the likelihood of autoimmune conditions where the body attacks its own tissues Men experience fewer overall immune changes but are more likely to develop silent high-risk cell patterns linked to cancers, allowing disease risk to build without obvious warning signs Your lifelong exposures to infections, stress, diet, and environment create a unique "immunobiography" that determines how effectively your immune system responds to threats later in life Daily habits such as nutrition, sleep, stress management, and sun exposure directly influence how your immune system ages, giving you a practical way to lower inflammation and improve long-term health outcomes

This podcast by Dr. Dan Zlotoff reviews new research on immune checkpoint inhibitor–associated myocarditis, a rare but serious complication of cancer immunotherapy, focusing on emerging inflammatory biomarkers such as interleukin‑6 and immune cell signatures.

Full Show Notes: https://bengreenfieldlife.com/timelinereplay In this special replay episode with repeat guest Dr. Anurag Singh from Timeline Nutrition, you'll explore the science of cellular health and longevity, including why mitochondrial function affects everything from energy and muscle performance to cognitive clarity and how well you age. Dr. Singh explains how urolithin A, a postbiotic compound derived from foods like pomegranates and berries, activates mitophagy, the body's cellular clean-up system that clears out worn-out mitochondria and replaces them with new ones, and how clinical research shows it can support muscle strength, endurance, immune resilience, and cognitive function. You'll also hear how diet, gut health, exercise, sleep, and recovery work alongside urolithin A to build a stronger, more resilient physiology over time. Dr. Anurag Singh is Chief Medical Officer at Timeline Nutrition, with an M.D. in internal medicine and a Ph.D. in immunology. He has authored more than 50 scientific articles, been awarded over 20 patents, and led more than 50 randomized clinical trials. His decade of research on urolithin A has produced multiple clinically validated products bringing longevity science directly to consumers.

In this episode, Maggie McDaris, CEO and Co-Founder of Phase, breaks down the science and practical application of cycle syncing, explaining how each phase of the menstrual cycle influences energy, cognition, productivity, and overall performance. She walks listeners through the follicular, ovulatory, luteal, and menstrual phases, highlighting the unique strengths and challenges of each stage, including the often-overlooked immune and recovery considerations during the luteal phase. Maggie also explores the role of dopamine, healthy ways to pursue motivation and achievement, and how understanding your biology can help prevent burnout in a culture that often expects women to perform the same way every day. The conversation addresses the stigma surrounding menstrual cycles, the importance of involving men in the discussion, and how cycle awareness impacts sleep, circadian rhythms, and workplace success. Maggie concludes by sharing actionable tips for getting started with cycle syncing and explains how the Phase app helps women align their schedules with their biology to optimize health, productivity, and sustainable performance.Maggie McDaris is the CEO and Co-Founder of Phase and a thought leader at the intersection of human performance and the future of work. A Registered Dietitian, corporate wellness and public health expert, and WELL Accredited Professional, she has spent more than a decade translating health science into practical strategies for real life and work. Before founding Phase, Maggie scaled high-growth wellness businesses and led multidisciplinary teams, gaining a firsthand view of how modern work routinely ignores human biology. That insight became the foundation for Phase, a biology-based productivity system designed to help women connect the dots between their bodies and their workload. Maggie is skilled at turning deep wellness expertise into high-impact, revenue-generating solutions, and she's on a mission to fundamentally reframe how we think about productivity, performance, and sustainable success.
