#166  - Beyond Functional Medicine: Why Most Health Experts Can't Help Complex Chronic Illnesses with Mel Hopper Koppelman   What if your chronic complex health issues aren't about needing more supplements or a new practitioner… but from a nervous system that's been stuck in survival mode since childhood? In this episode of Pretty Well, I'm joined by Mel Hopper Koppelman—an expert in neurological healing who's helping patients finally get better after functional medicine has failed.  We talk about the overlooked role of retained primitive reflexes, how childhood stress rewires adult health, and why your gut might still be leaky decades later (hint: it started long before gluten showed up). Mel breaks down why some people never fully heal from chronic fatigue, autoimmunity, mold toxicity, and even trauma—and what to do about it. You'll learn about the Cell Danger Response, what it means to truly “regulate your nervous system,” and why green smoothies might not be doing you any favors. Mel also unpacks in detail the 4 Stage Process of Recovering from Complex Chronic Health Issues.  If you've ever felt like you're doing all the right things and still not getting better, this episode might flip everything you thought you knew about healing.   Connect with Mel: Website https://essays.synthesishealth.co/mel-hopper-koppelman/ Social https://www.instagram.com/synthesishealth.co/  https://www.facebook.com/melkoppelmanacupuncture    Join the conversation: Share your thoughts with us on social media or in the comments!

On this Plain Talk, Sec. of State Michael Howe and Rep. Ben Koppelman joined us to discuss a surprisingly contentious issue in the closing days of the legislative session. Namely, a debate over laws requiring more rigorous campaign finance disclosures from legislative candidates. Howe supports the legislation, saying he wants better data for a new online database his office is implementing. Rep. Koppelman, however, suggested that the information wasn't that important to the public and would be "fodder for just trolling and fishing." He said that allowing the public to "really microscope every movement" is "not a practical or I would argue even a useful reason" to require greater disclosure. But without better disclosures, how could the public and the news media detect if a candidate is engaged in fraudulent or otherwise untoward activities with their campaign money? Koppelman said public officials are expected to "behave with high moral standards and follow these rules in a way that they can defend." Howe, meanwhile, said his office's goal is "to make this easy for the filer and for the public." Koppelman also weighed in on the closing debate over property taxes, saying he's not confident that the public is going to get enough property tax relief to head off another ballot measure. Koppleman called the legislation backed by Gov. Kelly Armstrong "the wrong approach from the get-go" and suggested that it's a futile endeavor. "I don't see any point in passing the bill, quite frankly, because it's like people aren't asking me for three drops in the bucket of relief from their property tax bill," he said. Also on this episode, co-host Chad Oban and I discuss the state of the property tax debate, and when this legislative session is likely to be over.

Unlocking Health: The Secrets of Nervous System Healing with Mel Hopper Koppelman Synthesishealth.co About the Guest(s): Mel Hopper Koppelman is a highly esteemed health professional serving as the Program Director at Synthesis Health Lab. With over 15 years of clinical experience, she has developed a cutting-edge approach that integrates Chinese medicine, functional medicine, and developmental neurology. Mel holds two master's degrees and is known for her ability to address complex chronic health conditions such as chronic fatigue, autoimmune disorders, and fibromyalgia, especially when traditional methods have not yielded results. Episode Summary: In this illuminating episode of The Chris Voss Show, host Chris Voss dives deep into the intricacies of health with Mel Hopper Koppelman, the program director at Synthesis Health Lab. Known for her transformative work with patients experiencing chronic health issues, Mel shares her innovative approach combining Chinese medicine, functional medicine, and developmental neurology. As the conversation unfolds, listeners gain insight into how development issues can underpin many chronic conditions, and how addressing the nervous system could be the key to sustainable recovery. Mel Hopper Koppelman discusses the concept of first principles in healing, inspired by traditional Chinese medicine, encouraging a reevaluation of modern health narratives. The episode delves into the vagal paradox, highlighting the complexities of the vagus nerve, which plays a crucial role in rest and digestion. Mel also unveils the hidden brain development issues that may lead to chronic fatigue and autoimmune disorders, offering listeners a glimpse into effective methods to address these concerns. Throughout the episode, she emphasizes an informed, methodical approach to health that avoids unnecessary lab tests and supplements, focusing instead on ancient natural healing laws. Key Takeaways: The integration of Chinese medicine, functional medicine, and developmental neurology offers a holistic pathway to addressing chronic health issues. Understanding the vagus nerve's role is crucial in differentiating between rest-and-digest states and states of life threat. Many chronic health problems may have roots in hidden developmental issues that require nuanced evaluation and treatment. Mel's approach emphasizes the importance of using first principles for sustainable health, advocating for an observational method over expensive lab tests. Addressing foundational neurological and gut health issues can lead to substantive improvements in long-term health outcomes. Notable Quotes: "The nervous system is really foundational to all of these systems." "It's getting this next level of nuance where we start to talk more about trauma and early childhood events and how they relate to adult health." "Understanding the order of operations is critical—realizing there's a step-by-step order that the body prefers to heal." "The first principles are not rocket science; they navigate you towards health in ways that become much smoother." "You're only testing what you're testing, and you're assuming what you're finding in the blood is telling you about the entire body."

There is a fight in the Legislature between the North Dakota Game & Fish Department and a group of hunters and landowners over regulations aimed at curbing the impact of chronic wasting disease on North Dakota's wildlife populations. But is that fight really about CWD? Or is this another front in the culture war spurred by (in some respects not entirely unreasonable) frustration with Game & Fish regulations? Dusty Backer is an activist (I don't use that word pejoratively, though he objected to being described that way) who joined this episode of Plain Talk to discuss the issue. He argues that concerns over CWD are feigned by state officials, federal officials, and academics as an avenue toward "controlling people." "Prions don't exist," he told us (CWD is described by health officials as "a prion disease"). He said that the state's efforts to regulate bait hunting, implemented as one method to control the spread of CWD, are unreasonable and an affront to property rights. Also on this episode, we've heard a lot about Gov. Kelly Armstrong's property tax plan, but Rep. Ben Koppelman, a Republican from West Fargo, has an alternative he says is better, though he admits that he likes broad portions of Armstrong's proposal. "The cap in the governor's plan I agree with," he said, referring to a 3% limit on growth in local budgets which he says the governor took from him. "I'm honored he would take that idea and put it in his plan." "Where I disagree is on the relief portion," Koppelman continued, saying that his plan delivers more tax relief on primary residences more quickly than Armstrong's plan by buying down a percentage as opposed to providing a fixed credit. He says there is political risk in not delivering tax relief swiftly. "I think we're going to set ourselves up for another measure," he said, referring to Measure 4, a proposal to abolish taxes on property values which voters defeated by a wide margin last year. Koppelman argues that, under his plan, a broader crossection of property owners will feel relief on a shorter timeline than under the governor's plan. "The idea is everyone should get to zer [property taxes] together," he said.

But has evangelicalism been enchanted by libertarianism? In this episode, we cover a brief history of libertarianism. What is it and who are some of the main thinkers? We discuss Murry Rothbard, Ayn Rand, Friedrich Hayek, and Robert Nozick. What is a libertarian? Matt Zwolinski and John Tomasi define libertarianism by six characteristics. Libertarians are defined by a love of private property, they are skeptical of authority, and they like free markets, spontaneous order, individualism, and negative liberty. We will define each of these throughout the episode. Our special guest for this episode is Andrew Koppelman, law professor at Northwestern University.

"Let's take valuations away." That's what state Rep. Ben Koppelman proposed on this episode of Plain Talk. He's referring to a plan for property tax reform that he's proposed should Measure 4 -- a constitutional ban on taxing property values -- fail on the statewide ballot in November. Koppelman would like to see property taxed on size, not value. His plan would levy mills on the square footage of properties, and the structures on those properties, with residential property owners seeing their bill defrayed by credits akin to the state's existing Homestead Tax Credit. "For many years the locals have blamed the Legislature" for the property tax problem, Koppelman said, arguing that, whatever happens with Measure 4, it's time for the Legislature to implement some more dramatic property tax reform to address what is a perennial source of consternation for North Dakota's voters. Koppelman said he's not for or against Measure 4, saying he's got his personal feelings but doesn't want to "twist the arm of voters." However, in the 2023 session, he did oppose Legislation that would have abolished property taxes. Also on this episode, co-host Chad Oban and I discuss the politics around the Measure 4 debate, recent polling in North Dakota's U.S. Senate race that shows Democratic candidate Katrina Christiansen putting up strong numbers, and some of the upcoming debates we have scheduled for the podcast.

  In this episode, I'm excited to welcome Dr. Mel Hopper Koppelman back for the third time! Today, we continue our conversation on the overlooked importance of brain development but go on to explore heart rate variability (and how it can easily be misinterpreted), Polyvagal Theory, and her fascinating, physics-based thoughts on how our heart rate variability connects us to the universe! In this podcast, Dr. Mel and I discuss: An easy way to visualize brain development: the brainstem is the root that grows up into the trunk of our brain and branches off into the right and left hemispheres The underlying driver of illness for many people with chronic symptoms and why gut or immune health might continue to suffer if this isn't addressed A clear, easy-to-understand explanation of heart rate variability and why this often-misinterpreted marker is crucial for vital health The 10-second at-home test Dr. Mel recommends to better understand your heart rate variability findings AND the functioning of your vagus nerve! Her physics-backed belief that our heart rate variability connects us to the “breath” or wave of the universe…and how this connection (or lack of connection!) relates to the vagus nerve, inflammation, nervous system development, and long-term health 2 major predictors of mortality, i.e., how long you will live and the interesting pattern often found in people with autism The extreme importance of working with the body and tracking test results versus cleverly attempting to biohack or manipulate the body with supplements or drugs

In this episode, I'm back with Dr. Mel Hopper Koppelman, discussing what she believes is one of the most important and overlooked areas in health—how brain development in childhood might be at the root of the health problems you're experiencing as an adult. You'll likely have some ‘aha!' moments (maybe big ones) while listening to the podcast.  In this podcast, Dr. Mel and I discuss:   The fascinating fact that we actually have 2 brains…and how brain imbalances impact your immune system and overall health How evolution led to our specialized, complex brain design and the main purposes it serves Myths debunked: The misunderstood idea that the left brain controls math and logic and the right brain controls creativity, and whether it's true that we only use 10% of our brain  The overlooked brain imbalance called “functional disconnection” and why this might be at the root of health problems such as autism, ADHD, gut dysfunction, autoimmunity, dyslexia, depression, anxiety, or even chronic infections  The surprisingly easy-to-test primitive reflexes (that start in the womb!) and how they're connected to chronic disease  Could you have an immature brain stem? Dr. Mel tells us the symptoms that let you know AND how to address this issue Why some popular health solutions might actually make you worse based on the specific brain imbalance you're experiencing  How brain imbalance can lead to changes in blood tests, such as low white blood cell count Practical ways you can assess if you have an imbalanced brain, accounting for your particular skills, health history, and childhood experiences The important distinction between pathologizing neurodiversity vs. helping those who wish to improve their brain's functionality in certain areas The liberating knowledge that our brains are malleable and trainable, and we can heal even longstanding brain-related issues!

Mel Hopper Koppelman was so burned out that in spite of being longtime friends with host Cait Donovan, she did not immediately recognize her own connection with childhood trauma and burnout. Growing up labeled as a “gifted kid”, Mel developed blind spots regarding aspects of her neurological development that were lacking. As an adult, she developed complex chronic health issues. Because of her blind spots, it would be years before Mel realized the connection between her childhood experiences, her health issues, and burnout. Now, as the founder of Synthesis Health Lab, Mel helps other people who are struggling with chronic health issues to heal and live their best lives.   While some conditions of burnout are environmental, others can be linked to neurological development, adverse childhood experiences, and genetic factors. For Mel, much of her burnout and chronic health issues ended up being linked to uneven neurological development. Through testing, Mel discovered that she retained primitive reflexes, typically not seen beyond one year of age, that influenced nervous system dysfunction. When nervous system dysregulation stems from delayed or uneven neurological development, the resulting burnout needs to be approached differently. The same techniques that work for burnout for someone with an evenly developed brain will not work the same way for someone whose neurological development differs.   If you are struggling from complex, chronic health problems like fibromyalgia, gastrointestinal disorders, autoimmunity, or chronic fatigue, consider getting tested for retained primitive reflexes. Your nervous system may be dysregulated due to differences in your neurological development.    Quotes • “We might be having a difficult time understanding development because we are underdeveloped ourselves.” (8:06 | Cait) • “One of the things that goes along with certain types of developmental issues, like we see with a lot of neurodiversity, is a characteristic unevenness of skills.” (9:52 | Mel) • “Things can run in families that are not necessarily genetic.” (15:10 | Mel) • “When we have adverse childhood events…and development is not unfolding optimally, then those primitive reflexes, instead of getting integrated, which means that the brain matures and kind of stops them from being active,…those reflexes are still there.” (26:59 | Mel) Links Connect with Mel Hopper Koppelman: https://essays.synthesishealth.co/ https://www.instagram.com/synthesishealth.co/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/melhopperkoppelman/ https://synthesishealth.co/join-us https://www.drrobertmelillo.com/ Coach with Cait: bit.ly/callcait Coach with Sarah: bit.ly/callsarahv Hire Cait for Your Event: https://caitdonovan.as.me/inquiry Join the FB Group: https://facebook.com/groups/friedtheburnoutpodcast XOXO, C   If you know that it's time to actually DO something about the burnout cycle you've been in for too long - book your free consult today: bit.ly/callcait   https://friedtheburnoutpodcast.com/quiz   Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

Thursday, November 23rd, 2022   Andrew Koppelman is the author of Burning Down the House: How Libertarian Philosophy Was Corrupted by Delusion and Greed. It's a fascinating history of this idea and an excellent lens for understanding so much of American life and politics.    The core idea of liberalism is that people ought to be able to live as they like and libertarianism appeals to that desire for freedom. The question is how do you deliver it? A robust free market has proven to do more for the poor than any centralized state control. However, there are some problems (like a pandemic) that can only be dealt with by organized collective action led by a strong state. Government facilitates freedom by making the country richer and giving individuals more wherewithal to conduct their lives. Markets alone don't give people what they deserve because what people deserve is a backward-looking question.    Follow Andrew on Twitter:  https://twitter.com/andrewkoppelman    Follow Mila on Twitter:  https://twitter.com/milaatmos    Follow Future Hindsight on Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/futurehindsightpod/   Love Future Hindsight?

Sam just co-wrote a book with former Attorney General Eric Holder called "Our Unfinished March: The Violent Past and Imperiled Future of the Vote-A History, a Crisis, a Plan" In this episode, we talked about voter fraud, voter ID laws, voter suppression, and gerrymandering. We discuss the Voting Rights Act of 1965, and the so-called "gutting of that act" in 2013. We also talk about the great replacement theory and much more. As you'll hear in the episode, I'm skeptical of the narrative that voter suppression is a huge problem, that voter ID laws are racist, and so forth. While Sam doesn't quite go that far, I think there is some distance between his position on these topics and my own. As we near the midterms, I'm gonna have a few more guests like this that deal with electoral politics. I hope you enjoy this conversation. Learn more about your ad choices.

John Heilemann talks with former Attorney General Eric Holder and speechwriter Sam Koppelman, co-authors of the new book Our Unfinished March: The Violent Past and Imperiled Future of the Vote — A History, a Crisis, a Plan. Heilemann, Holder, and Koppelman discuss the importance of the right to vote and why it has been under siege since the Supreme Court's 2013 decision in Shelby County v. Holder, which gutted the 1965 Voting Rights Act; their wide-ranging prescriptions for saving the American democratic process, including not just protections of voting rights but fundamental reforms to the Supreme Court, the U.S. Senate, congressional redistricting, and the Electoral College; and Holder's reluctant embrace of the arguments in favor of indicting former President Donald Trump for his actions related to the January 6 insurrection. They also discuss the fatal shooting of 19 schoolchildren and two teachers in Uvalde, Texas, the Republican Party's intransigence on the Second Amendment, and what might be required to shock voters and their representatives in Congress into reforming the nation's gun laws.
