Dr. David Perlmutter — neurologist, New York Times bestselling author, and author of the new book Brain Defenders — joins Dr. Will Cole to reveal what he believes is the most important breakthrough in brain health science in decades: the microglial cell. He explains why the amyloid hypothesis that has dominated Alzheimer's research (and pharmaceutical spending) for 30 years has been definitively disproven by a Cochrane analysis, why a Harvard lifestyle study arrested Alzheimer's decline in 70% of patients without any drug, and what the April 2024 NEJM GLP-1 Parkinson's trial means for the future of neurodegenerative disease. They also cover the practical daily habits, foods, supplements, and lab tests that shift the brain's immune cells from destructive to protective — and why you are far more the architect of your brain's destiny than anyone has told you.

When you decide to grab a bite to eat, do you think about how to feed your gut microbes? Most of us don't. Even if we did, their only means of stating their preferences is somewhat after the fact. Do you end up feeling less than well? Perhaps the denizens of your gut aren't happy. In this episode, we consider how to support your microbiota and whether that can reduce the inflammation that seems to accompany modern life. At The People's Pharmacy, we strive to bring you up‑to‑date, rigorously researched insights and conversations about health, medicine, wellness and health policies and health systems. While these conversations intend to offer insight and perspective, the content is provided solely for informational and educational purposes.

Feed Your Gut Right to Fight Inflammation Dr. Will Bulsiewicz is a gastroenterologist who urges all of us to focus on a healthful fiber-rich plant-strong diet to maintain our microbiome in good shape. He has described his own evolution from a busy medical student relying heavily on processed food products to a whole-food plant-based enthusiast. Eating a wide variety of plants is one of the easiest ways to make sure we are getting the nutrients our gut microbes need. Why are the trillions of microbes in our large intestine so important? Dr. Bulsiewicz (aka Dr. B.) shares the story of a patient who was overwhelmed by a serious C. diff infection. A course of clindamycin for a skin infection had decimated her normal microbiome and left an open field for C. diff to flourish. Instead of treating her with surgery and even more potent antibiotics, Dr. B. and his colleagues utilized a fecal transplant. She got poop from a healthy person into her colon and left the hospital a few days later in good health herself. What Is the Link Between the Microbiome and the Immune System? Inflammation is one of the primary signs that the immune system has gone into action to fight off a perceived foe. There is a close relationship between the gut microbes, the gut barrier and the cells of the immune system. Between 70 and 80 percent of immune system cells are present in the gut (Nutrients, March 9, 2021).  There is just one layer of cells in the gut barrier, firmly attached to each other through tight junctions. If those tight junctions break down, pathogens and toxins can get from the gut into the bloodstream and activate the immune system into creating inflammation Medicines That Harm the Intestinal Barrier Diets that are high in salt have a negative impact on the integrity of the intestinal barrier (Nutrients, Nov. 25, 2025). In fact, a diet high in salt can reduce the number of Lactobacilli in the gut by 90%. This also affects the permeability of the gut barrier, which can contribute to auto-immune conditions. When we asked about inflammatory bowel disorders such as Crohn disease or ulcerative colitis, Dr. B. told us he thinks it's a mistake to classify them as auto-immune conditions. Instead, he suggests we should consider these conditions as due to the immune system rejecting the microbiome. Some of them might be initiated and perpetuated by failures in the gut barrier that allow certain organisms or their toxins into systemic circulation. A number of medications can also harm it, most notably the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Agents like ibuprofen, naproxen, celecoxib and meloxicam may disrupt the tight junctions that keep the intestinal barrier intact (Gastroenterology, Feb. 2018).  In some cases, they may also upset the balance of microbes. Four Keys to an Anti-Inflammatory Diet There are several different dietary patterns that allow you to feed your gut and fight inflammation. Good evidence supports a DASH diet, a Mediterranean diet, pescatarian, flexitarian, vegetarian and some vegan diets. We asked Dr. B. to summarize the four features healthful eating patterns share. They include adequate fiber, plenty of polyphenols, healthy fat and fermented foods (think of sauerkraut or kimchi). Fiber and Flatulence One drawback of a high-fiber diet is that when microbes in the colon ferment the fiber we can't digest, they produce gases. It has to go somewhere, or it will cause sensations of cramping and bloating. Consequently, fiber is often associated with flatulence. Dr. B. suggests that there may be more gas, and it may be loud, but it shouldn't be stinky. Smelly farts are born of sulfur, which is more common in a diet containing garlic, onions, crucifers like broccoli or cabbage, fish, eggs or meat. Plant-Powered Plus We wondered what might be included in the “plus” category when you feed your gut and fight inflammation. Dr. B. offers a few things that you might not expect in a book about diet, but they are related to reducing inflammation. One is to go outside early in the day, every day, to get your circadian rhythm in sync. Another is to maintain your emotional connections with family and friends. Still another, just as important, is to nurture your spiritual core. This Week’s Guest Dr. Will Bulsiewicz describes how a plant-powered diet can fight inflammation Will Bulsiewicz, MD, is a New York Times bestselling author, award-winning gastroenterologist and internationally recognized health expert. Dr. Bulsiewicz directs the Gut & Microbiome Center for Excellence, a physician-led executive medicine and telemedicine practice based in Mount Pleasant, SC. Dr. Bulsiewicz is the author of several books, including his latest book, Plant Powered Plus: Activate the Power of Your Gut to Tame Inflammation and Reclaim Your Health.

Are you buying the same vegetables he does? We also get insights on his favorite recipes for grains like farro. And we discuss the effect of coffee on the gut microbes. If you want to feed your gut to encourage certain microbes, remember that consistency is crucial. You can't eat a specific food once and expect it to make a difference. But consuming it several times a week will ultimately add up. We also discuss antidotes for flatulence, if you are interested in that.

In this episode of Health Confidential, host Simone Gisondi takes a deeper look at vaccines through the lens of the immune system, bodily sovereignty, informed consent, and personal responsibility. Drawing from her holistic health perspective, Simone explores questions around how the immune system works, how different forms of immunity are understood, and what it means to make informed decisions about medical interventions.Simone discusses the importance of understanding what is being introduced into the body, why it is being recommended, and the potential risks and benefits before making a decision. She explores questions surrounding vaccine ingredients, vaccine-induced versus naturally acquired immunity, and the role of nutrition, sleep, movement, sunlight, and other lifestyle factors in supporting overall immune health.A major focus of this episode is the difference between recommendation, requirement, and genuine informed consent. Simone shares a personal experience involving an HPV vaccination campaign at her son's school and how the situation led her to question medical authority, parental rights, and the boundaries of bodily autonomy. The conversation expands into broader questions surrounding vaccine mandates, pharmaceutical liability, COVID-era policies, and what can happen when people feel pressured to make healthcare decisions without fully understanding their choices.Ultimately, this episode is an invitation to ask questions, understand your options, and take an active role in decisions involving your health and your family's wellbeing.KEY TAKEAWAYSInformed consent requires understanding what is being recommended, why it is being recommended, and the potential risks and benefits involved.There is an important distinction between something being recommended and something being legally required, making it important to understand the policies and rights that apply to each situation.Simone explores the idea that supporting immune health also involves foundational lifestyle factors such as nutrition, sleep, movement, sunlight, and overall wellbeing.Medical decisions can raise important ethical questions when individuals feel pressured, threatened, or unable to make a genuinely voluntary choice.Taking responsibility for your health means asking questions, seeking information from qualified sources, and making informed decisions rather than surrendering your ability to think critically.BEST MOMENTS"Informed consent means very little if you don't actually understand what you're consenting to—or what you're consenting to being done to your kids.""You should never let anybody from the medical community coerce you, force you, intimidate you, push you, or in any way pressure you to inject anything into your body.""You are the steward of your body, not the state, not the school, not the government, not public health, not anybody.""I was not willing to betray my values, my beliefs, or my role as a mom.""Do not hand over your power and your sovereignty. Ever."HOST BIOSimone Gisondi is a seasoned coach, published author, and host of Health Confidential.

Lew Bender, Founder and CEO of Intensity Therapeutics, has developed a novel approach to treating solid tumors through direct intratumoral injection of existing chemotherapy drugs. The company uses a proprietary formulation containing a special molecule that makes water-based drugs soluble in fatty tissue, allowing cisplatin and vinblastine to penetrate tumor cells effectively. Beyond direct killing of cancer cells, the approach triggers an immunological response that trains the immune system to recognize and attack cancer cells throughout the body, including metastatic tumors that were not directly injected. Lew explains, "We're injecting directly into the tumors, and we have identified a formulation that allows for water-based drugs to become soluble in fat and water. Effectively, a tumor is fat and water. And while it has been tried before to inject water into fat, I helped to develop a chemistry that allows for water-based products to be absorbed by fatty tissue like tumors." "We are injecting our formulation, which is a special molecule called SHAO, that makes things soluble in fat and water, and two very well-known potent anti-cancer agents, cisplatin and vinblastine, that are able to kill cancers when they get into the cancer cells. So we dose based on the size of the tumor, check into the tumors, and the tumors in an immunological way. So what does that mean? It means that as the tumor cells die, they create chemicals that allow for the influx and recognition of the immune cells that this is not a good entity to be in the body." "We are killing the cancer with the drug, but at the same time training the immune system on the tumors so that the immune system can recognize the cancer as not self and attack the cancer in a more precise way." #IntensityTherapeutics $INTS  #CancerResearch #Oncology #Biotech #CancerCare  #ClinicalTrials #BreastCancer #TargetedOncology #IntratumoralInjection #OncologyInnovation #ImmunoOncology #IntratumoralTherapy #SolidTumors #TNBC #Sarcoma #HealthcareProfessionals intensitytherapeutics.com Listen to the podcast here

Your immune system is built to hunt invaders, but every so often it turns its weaponry on your own tissues. Over the last 50 years, autoimmune disease has gone from an uncommon condition to something almost everyone knows at least one person living with, and the two variables that move symptoms more than anything are almost never discussed in a 10-minute doctor's appointment. Inside today's episode, I take the umbrella view on autoimmunity, covering how the whole category works and what the underlying mistake looks like whether it lands on the thyroid in Hashimoto's, the joints in rheumatoid arthritis, the nerve coating in MS, or half a dozen organs at once in Lupus.Topics discussed: - The Rising Autoimmune Curve- The Immune Balance Tipping Point- Why 80% of Patients Are Women- The Hormone Picture in Autoimmune Disease- Oral Contraceptives and Autoimmune Risk- Gut Microbiome and Immune History- Trauma, PTSD, and Chronically Low Cortisol- The Nutrition Ladder for Autoimmune- AIP, Wahls, and Keto for Severe Cases---------- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠My Live Program for Coaches: The Functional Nutrition and Metabolism Specialization ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.metabolismschool.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠---------- [Free] Metabolism School 101: The Video Series⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://www.metabolismschool.com/metabolism-101⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠----------Subscribe to My Youtube Channel: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://youtube.com/@sammillerscience?si=s1jcR6Im4GDHbw_1⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠----------⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Grab a Copy of My New Book - Metabolism Made Simple⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠---------- Stay Connected: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: @sammillerscience⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Youtube: SamMillerScience⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook: The Nutrition Coaching Collaborative Community⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok: @sammillerscience⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠----------“This Podcast is for general informational purposes only and does not constitute the practice of medicine, nursing or other professional health care services, including the giving of medical advice, and no doctor/patient relationship is formed.

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows!   This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track!   Check out today's questions:    Alicia: Hi there, thank you for your time. I would like to know what kind of cleanse you would suggest for someone who has arthritis, neuropathy and gut issues. Lots of inflammation and already gluten free. Has had a long standing relationship with pharmaceuticals due to multiple injuries and is now off prescriptions but dealing with a fragile nervous system and digestive system. Thank you.       S: Hi Dr. Cabral. Our 11 year old son still wets the bed from time to time. In fact lately, it's gotten worse. He is top of his class, a heavy reader, extremely inquisitive and very very active and talented in sports. BUT he is small for his age (15th percentile) and hyperactive at times. Any advice would be invaluable. Thanks.       Joy: Hi Dr. C, Thanks for all you do! Let's assume you have a post-menopausal family member who read the book Estrogen Matters and made the decision to go on HRT for benefits to brain, bones and symptom relief. She feels better but still has terribly disruptive sleep. She took the Stress, Mood and Metabolism Test and had values indicating high nighttime cortisol and elevated hormones except DHEA which was out of range low. She's done CBO protocol and has been on the sleep protocol for a month with limited relief. Would you suggest she get off HRT or continue HRT while incorporating something else to get to more optimal ranges or do you think it's mainly the nighttime cortisol that's causing the sleep problems? Seems like both issues may be impacting. No room here to share specific values.       Anonymous: I did tests from EquiLife and am working to reverse my PCOS symptoms. Long story short I still have high testosterone despite working at it for a few years and alleviating a lot of other symptoms. HTMA and OAT showed low vitamins and minerals even though I have been supplementing and eating well for years. So we looked at digestion and stool testing revealed an IGA of 4, low elastase, low propionate, NG for Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus, few commensal bacteria, no dysbiotic flora or yeast. I worked through the mold protocol and am now on the heavy metal. As part of my protocol, I have been doing weekly enemas. I am on month three of doing them weekly and today I passed what I believe was a mucus plug hours afterwards. Is this something to be concerned about? Can I continue enemas?       Jana: 39 female. 3 years w/ your coach I've healed my gut, finished all your protocols & testing.I continue w/ your supplements & suggestions (sauna, walking).I'm struggling with chronic fatigue & inflammation, immunodeficiency, nasal MARCONs (past exposure) & scalp psoriasis.I've had infections most of my life (strep, pneumonia, bronchitis, sinus).Doctors suggested Pepcid + Allegra 4x daily (MCAS) + LDN (hEDS).I'm trying to avoid lifelong biologics + immune therapy.Does your histamine protocol replace/support the suggested Pepcid/Allegra combo for MCAS?What recommendation for rebuilding my immune system?15 of 22 pneumococcal titers are nonprotective despite 3 PPV23 vaccines. I take Histpro + Vit C & Inflamma Soothe + others. Increase dosage? Need guidance on supplementation & what else to try.        Thank you for tuning into today's Cabral HouseCall and be sure to check back tomorrow where we answer more of our community's questions!    - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/3830 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?

You probably think of a sauna as somewhere to relax, recover after exercise, or simply warm up on a cold day. However, scientists have discovered that just 30 minutes in a sauna may temporarily change the way your immune system behaves. New research published in the journal Temperature found that just one single sauna session caused every major type of white blood cell to increase in the bloodstream. These are the cells that help defend you against infections, clear away damaged cells and coordinate your body's immune response. Most of the time, many of these cells aren't constantly travelling around your body. Instead, they wait in places like your bone marrow, spleen and lymph nodes until they're needed. You can think of them like emergency services. You don't keep every police officer, firefighter and ambulance driving around every street all day. Most are stationed at their bases, ready to respond when something happens. But every now and then, it can be useful to have more of them out on patrol. That's essentially what the researchers think happened during the sauna. The heat appeared to temporarily send more immune cells into circulation, giving them the opportunity to move through the body looking for signs of infection, damaged tissue or anything else that doesn't belong. Scientists call this immune surveillance. In the experiments the researchers recruited 51 adults with an average age of 50. Each volunteer spent 15 minutes in a traditional Finnish sauna heated to around 73°C, cooled off with a two-minute shower, then returned to the sauna for another 15 minutes. Blood samples were taken before the sauna, immediately afterwards and again 30 minutes later, allowing the researchers to watch how the immune system responded in real time. Blood tests revealed that every major type of white blood cell increased immediately after the sauna. Neutrophils, the body's first responders to infection, and lymphocytes, which help recognise and destroy infected cells, both surged into the bloodstream before returning to their usual levels about 30 minutes later. That suggests these cells weren't being created from scratch. Instead, they were temporarily moving out of their storage sites and into circulation before returning home again. The scientists also measured 37 different cytokines, the chemical messenger molecules that immune cells use to communicate with one another. Surprisingly, despite the dramatic movement of white blood cells, very few of these signalling molecules changed. The researchers think this means the immediate response to a sauna is driven more by moving immune cells around the body than by switching the immune system into a highly inflammatory state. While the study didn't go on to look at whether people who regularly took saunas had a stronger immune system, it does show that your immune system isn't sitting still while you're relaxing, but instead is working harder than ever.

You've eaten the same foods for decades — and suddenly, in your 40s, wine gives you a headache, your skin itches at night with no rash, you're congested year-round, and hives show up out of nowhere. If you've ever typed "why am I suddenly allergic to everything" into Google, this episode is for you.Perimenopause changes more than your cycle — it changes your immune system. Estrogen and histamine are in constant conversation, and when hormones start fluctuating, that conversation gets loud. Board-certified OB/GYN and menopause specialist Dr. Carolyn Moyers sits down with Dr. Karen Kaufman, a double board-certified allergist-immunologist and founder of Corneva Clinic, to explain the midlife allergy surge no one warned you about.In this episode:• Why new allergies, wine intolerance, and food reactions show up in perimenopause• What estrogen does to mast cells and histamine — and why fluctuation matters more than decline• Hormone or histamine? How two doctors tell apart flushing, palpitations, insomnia, and headaches• Itchy skin at night, itchy ears, hives, and year-round congestion — what's actually driving midlife itch• Histamine intolerance and MCAS: what the evidence says, and where social media gets ahead of the science• Low-histamine diets — what's reasonable, what's over-restriction• Hives or flushing after starting hormone therapy: why it's information, not a reason to quit, the magic happens in the edits• What to track before your appointment, and whether to see your menopause doctor or an allergist first

Take care of your microbiome, and it will take care of youDid you know that every meal feeds not only you, but also the trillions of microorganisms living in your digestive tract? Research continues to suggest that the foods we eat directly influence our gut microbiome, which plays an essential role in digestion, metabolism, immune function, inflammation, and inter-organ communication throughout the body. In this quickie episode of the Everyone Dies podcast, we dive into how fiber-rich foods and resistant starch nourish beneficial gut bacteria—and why ultra-processed foods may have the opposite effect. You'll learn why calories from whole foods are handled differently than calories from highly processed foods, how short-chain fatty acids support metabolic health, and practical ways to include more microbiome-friendly foods in your daily meals. Resources and more: https://bit.ly/4wpKel7Plus, as a bonus, we are including a re-release of our deep-dive episode on the microbiome, S5E25: The Important Role of the Microbiome to Your Health and Immune Function!Topics discussed include:What the gut microbiome does and why it matters Why fiber is essential for gut health What resistant starch is and where to find it How ultra-processed foods affect beneficial gut bacteria Simple, daily dietary changes that promote long-term wellness#GutHealth #GutMicrobiome #Fiber #Nutrition #HealthyEating #DigestiveHealth #Wellness #WholeFoods #ResistantStarch #Metabolism #ImmuneHealth #PreventiveHealth #EvidenceBased #HealthPodcast #EveryoneDiesPodcastSupport the show

Hello, Beautiful...I'm so grateful you're here with me. Supporting your health also includes supporting the thoughts and beliefs you hold about your body.

Perfect for health, healing, self-care, wellness, and positive mindset. Love,

Dr. William Li is a Harvard-trained physician, co-founder of the Angiogenesis Foundation, and New York Times bestselling author whose work centers on one quietly radical premise: the power to stay healthy lives inside you. In this conversation, we explore the five hardwired defense systems the body runs continuously, angiogenesis, stem cells, the gut microbiome, immunity, and DNA protection, and what it looks like to actually support them through food, sleep, and daily choices.What We Dive Into:1. You are not just one organism. You carry 39 trillion bacteria inside you, many of which send signals up through the vagus nerve directly to the brain, shaping mood, social behavior, and stress levels.2. Your body was born with 70 million extra stem cells stored in bone marrow, ready to mobilize and repair damage whenever called. Sleep, food, and metabolic health directly influence how effectively they do their job.3. The environment is full of things we cannot fully control, microplastics, toxins, pollution. What we can control is whether our internal defense systems are strong enough to handle the load. Chronic stress degrades those systems faster than most environmental exposures.Know Thyself, but not by yourself.

In this episode of The Better Life, Dr. Pinkston sits down with Harvard-trained physician, consultant, and author Dr. Michael Myers Jr. to tackle the complex and often controversial topic of vaccines through the lens of sound science and clear data. With deep expertise as a former chief of primary care and pediatrics, Dr. Myers previews his upcoming book, The Vaccine Bible, and unpacks how immunization works as a reliable tool for long-term health and disease prevention. Together, Dr. Pinkston and Dr. Myers address the most common concerns shared by patient communities today, including the safety of combination shots, the reality of preservatives, and the thoroughly debunked links between vaccines and autism. They look closely at the critical role vaccines play in modern longevity—highlighting massive clinical wins like the shingles vaccine’s link to reduced dementia risk, and cancer-preventing tools like the Gardasil and Hepatitis B vaccines. Dr. Myers also breaks down the rapid development and safety of mRNA technology used during the COVID-19 pandemic. Tune in for an honest, evidence-based conversation that bridges the gap between integrative health practices and conventional immunology, empowering you to perform your own objective risk assessment for you and your family. https://www.drmikemyers.com/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

People with rare, severe autoimmune diseases often live for years with progressive, disabling conditions managed by chronic immunosuppression that rarely addresses the underlying cause. Kyverna is developing an autologous CAR T-cell therapy designed to deliver a deep immune reset by broadly depleting pathogenic B cells, followed by repopulation with naïve, non-pathogenic B cells and normalization of T-cell function and cytokine profiles. This approach has the potential to enable durable remissions and discontinuation of background immunosuppressive therapies after a single infusion. The company's pipeline is focused on neuroimmunology, with lead programs in generalized myasthenia gravis and stiff person syndrome. Warner Biddle, CEO of Kyverna Therapeutics, discusses the company's B cell–targeting cell therapy platform, the range of autoimmune diseases it aims to address, and its next-generation therapies in development.

What if the real problem with your child's eczema isn't a weak immune system, but one that's working too hard in the wrong direction? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Rob Silverman, a chiropractor who's spent years working at the intersection of functional medicine, inflammation, and chronic disease. We dig into why eczema is almost never actually a skin condition, how the gut and nervous system are constantly communicating with each other, why food sensitivities can hide inflammation for days before it shows up, and some simple, doable shifts you can start making in your own kitchen tonight. Your child's immune system doesn't need boosting. It needs balance, and once you understand the difference, everything about how you approach healing starts to shift. WANT TO GET TO THE ROOT CAUSE?

Have you ever felt like your mind is completely unprotected against the non-stop cascade of notifications, digital stress, and collective anxiety? Welcome to Day 1 of our master series, The Mental Immune System: Retraining Your Brain's Natural Defenses. Today, we unlock the foundational gateway of your psychological armor by exploring the profound developmental arc of Release. Before you can build new layers of mental resilience, you must first clear out the toxic, high-frequency static that is currently exhausting your cognitive resources. In this introductory session, we explore the groundbreaking science of the "Mental Immune System." We look at the work of evolutionary geneticists and physicians like Dr. Michael Nehls, who reveal how our brains were evolutionarily designed to absorb vital, protective trace minerals—like lithium—straight from our natural groundwater to buffer us against aggression, impulsivity, and despair. We journey back to ancient societies who drank from mineral-dense, living springs, automatically anchoring their brains in an unshakeable state of biochemical safety. Over the course of this series, you will learn how chronic digital overstimulation causes your brain stem to hold onto a tight, defensive bracing pattern that mimics a severe physical illness. Through our featured somatic release protocol, you will learn to consciously unlatch that survival loop, flush accumulated adrenaline, and build an untouchable sanctuary within your own biology. Allow your nervous system return to its true, sovereign baseline.

Carnitine, with acknowledged muscle and brain benefits, may find a new role in supporting cancer immunity; Calcium and vitamin D's bone-building impact may be limited; Internal visceral fat may accelerate brain aging, MRI study finds; The remarkable benefits of a newly-discovered mitochondrial booster—urolithin A (Mitopure®️).

First up on the podcast, Contributing Correspondent Warren Cornwall goes on an owl hunt in the woods of Northern California. After surviving logging and habitat destruction in the 1990s, the endangered Northern spotted owl has put conservationists in a bind: In order to protect the spotted owl, the only solution may be shooting barred owls. Next on the show, looking back at the first 10 years of the journal Science Immunology.

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.

Your immune system already knows how to find and destroy cancer cells. The question is whether it's been given what it needs to do the job.In this episode of Integrative Cancer Solutions, Dr. K sits down with Dr. Jocelyn Strand to dig into one of the most underutilized tools in cancer support: beta-glucan. They break down how the immune system actually identifies and clears cancer, why your innate immunity is far more trainable than anyone told you in medical school, and how a specific molecule from yeast cell walls has receptors waiting for it on your immune cells by design. Dr. Strand walks through the science of trained immunity, epigenetic changes triggered at the cellular level, and why beta-glucan may double the effectiveness of immunotherapy in treatment-resistant patients. Whether you're in active treatment, in recovery, or simply trying to stay ahead of cancer, this conversation will change how you think about what your immune system is actually capable of.Key Takeaways:0:00 Introduction1:29 The immune system is your body's operating system, not just cold and flu defense3:47 Innate vs. adaptive immunity and how cancer gets identified and cleared7:09 We have receptors designed specifically for beta-glucan and that changes everything9:08 Beta-glucan calls the immune system back to what it already knows how to do13:24 The best doctor you have is already inside you16:07 Chemo suppresses the immune system you need most for recovery and recurrence prevention30:35 Beta-glucan doubles immunotherapy efficacy in treatment-resistant patients37:33 12 weeks of beta-glucan reversed biological aging in 7 of 11 body systems Schedule a Free 15-Min Cancer/Lyme Consultation at The Karlfeldt Center: 208-338-8902Resources:Better Way Health 85 Beta-Glucan — https://secure.betterwayhealth.com/pages/mcf-500-af-sub-c?oid=7&affid=246TruDiagnostic — https://www.trudiagnostic.com Medical Disclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or replace professional medical advice.

Send us Fan MailAn MRI, a phone call, and four words nobody wants to hear: “You have a perforated bowel.” Zach Koscuik was on the road to a comedy gig when Crohn's disease forced yet another hard pivot, adding to a 25-year history that includes perianal Crohn's, fistulas, abscesses, emergency surgeries, biologics, and three ileocolonic resections. We talk with him about what it's like to grow up sick, manage the stigma that makes people minimize inflammatory bowel disease, and keep showing up to school, work, and life when your body is always negotiating the nearest bathroom.Then the story takes a turn into the world of clinical trials and high-stakes medicine. Zach explains how severe disease and short bowel complications pushed his team toward an autologous stem cell transplant, a process that essentially wipes out and restarts the immune system. We get specific about the testing, chemo, isolation, and the surreal experience of being treated on a cancer floor without having cancer, plus the very real impact of insurance decisions that kept him hospitalized for 43 days.The payoff lands with the kind of news IBD patients barely let themselves hope for: a one-year follow-up colonoscopy that comes back completely clean. We also keep it honest about what remains, including motility issues, joint pain, and the mental aftershocks of medical trauma. Zach closes with a simple challenge for the Crohn's and colitis community: practice equal empathy, because two people can share a diagnosis and live totally different realities. If this conversation hits home, subscribe, share the episode with a friend, and leave a review so more people living with IBD can find it.Links: Find Zach on InstagramInformation on the stem cell trial that Zach didStem Cell Therapy clinical trial site- Clinicaltrials.govLet's get social!!Follow us on Instagram!Follow us on Facebook!Follow us on Twitter!

Your Immune Age Is Lying To You. Here's How To Read Your Blood And Fix It. How old is your immune system, really? It's probably not the same age as you are — and that gap may be the single biggest hidden driver of how well you age, how fast you recover, and how long you stay healthy. In this episode I break down what actually happens to your immune system as the years tick over — immunosenescence (the immune system getting weaker) and inflammaging (the silent, smouldering inflammation that never switches off) — and why almost every disease of ageing sits somewhere on that spectrum. Then I get practical. I'll show you how to measure your immune age from a standard blood test you can get anywhere in the world, using seven scientifically validated ratios (NLR, PLR, MLR, LMR, SII, PIV and ELR) synthesised into a single Immune Resilience Index. We cover the cutting-edge science from Dr David Furman's 1000 Immunomes Project and the iAge inflammatory clock, the TRIIM and TRIIM-X thymus-regeneration trials, the gut-immune connection (70% of your immune cells live in your gut), the cytokines of ageing (IL-6, TNF-alpha, IL-1 beta, NF-kB and IL-10), and how our Re:juvenate Pro formulation was built to target exactly these pathways.

What Happens When You Keep Suppressing Fevers in ChildrenThis week on the Natural Super Kids Podcast, we're talking about fevers in children, why they happen and what can happen when we suppress them too quickly or too often.It's 2am. Your child is burning up. You feel scared. Reaching for Panadol can feel like the most caring thing to do. This episode is not about making parents feel guilty, it's about helping you understand what a fever is actually doing, when it may be helpful to let it run its course and when it's time to seek medical support.In this episode we explore:Why fever is a deliberate immune response.How fevers help the body slow down pathogens.What can happen when fevers are repeatedly suppressed.How to support your child with hydration, rest and comfort measures.

In the final installment of this series on healthy organizational systems, Trisha and Mac unpack the last three practices from Peter Steinke's work on strengthening an organization's "immune system." Together they explore why healthy leaders focus on process along with content, the entire system, not just symptoms, and direction, not just current condition. Through stories from ministry and organizational leadership, they show how these shifts help leaders move beyond blame, navigate discouragement, and create lasting health instead of chasing quick fixes.

Chronic immune activation creates a feedback loop between immune cells that keeps them stuck in "on mode," increasing the likelihood of uncontrolled growth and lymphoma development over time Autoimmunity and cancer are opposite outcomes of the same immune system imbalance, meaning pushing your immune system too hard or suppressing it too much both increase disease risk Cancer treatments that boost immune activity improve tumor destruction but often trigger autoimmune damage, while autoimmune treatments weaken immune surveillance and allow abnormal cells to survive longer Your gut and mitochondrial function directly control immune behavior, and when these systems break down, your immune system receives constant danger signals and stays activated Restoring balance requires rebuilding gut health gradually, removing damaging factors like seed oils, maintaining steady cellular energy with adequate carbohydrates, and reinforcing daily rhythms through movement and sunlight

Autoimmune disease is often treated as something random, lifelong, and out of your control. But what if it's not your body malfunctioning—what if it's your immune system responding exactly the way it's designed to, to something it sees as a threat? When you understand what's driving that response, everything changes. Here's what I cover in today's episode: • The 5 key drivers—food, toxins, gut health, infections, and stress—and how they disrupt the immune system • Why diet is one of the most powerful levers for turning inflammation on or off every single day • The connection between leaky gut, the microbiome, and immune dysfunction • A practical, functional medicine framework to start reducing symptoms and addressing the condition at the root Autoimmune disease isn't random—it's the result of cumulative inputs over time. When you begin to change those inputs, you can shift your biology, calm the immune system, and change the trajectory of your health. Visit ⁠functionhealth.com for 160+ lab tests at just $365 a year.
