Learn how to JournalSpeak ➡️  https://bit.ly/3IsmzN4  At 21, Jay was living an extraordinary life — an international freestyle skier and full-time Math and Computer Science student. After winning a national ski competition, he caught Covid — and everything changed. As the virus faded, Jay was left with crushing fatigue that spiraled into ME/CFS and Long Covid. Within months, he became 97% bedbound — unable to walk to the bathroom or care for himself. His parents became his lifeline, researching desperately while he struggled to survive. Then Jay's father found Gary (Season 3, Episode 26) who introduced them to my work, and Jay's cognitive symptoms began to lift. With a consistent JournalSpeak practice and MindBody mindset, he is now completely recovered - competing and training again harder than ever. Jay's story is a stunning reminder that there is more to illness than meets the eye. Join us for this incredible conversation. XOOX n. PLEASE RATE AND REVIEW THE PODCAST HERE TO HELP OTHERS FIND IT!

Fatigue isn't just about feeling tired, but also your body's warning signal that something much deeper is out of balance.  In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Evan Hirsch, founder of the Energy MD Method, to uncover his proven four-step process for restoring energy, reversing long COVID, and resolving chronic fatigue for good. We discuss the Toxic Five: the underlying root causes that drain your vitality and how you can retrain your nervous system, open detox pathways, and naturally restore your mitochondria. Dr. Hirsch shares his personal five-year battle with exhaustion, what finally worked, and how thousands have reclaimed their energy using the same framework.    "Our bodies are always working for our best interest. You can't just replace mitochondria 'to high heaven' and expect results. You have to fix the underlying problem that's forcing them to shut down." ~ Dr. Evan Hirsch   In This Episode: - Dr. Evan's journey through chronic fatigue - An overview of long COVID and the propagation of spike proteins  - Long COVID vs chronic fatigue - Why some people get long COVID and others don't - The 4-step process to resolve chronic fatigue and long COVID - Success stories and the program timeline - Addressing sleep issues and promoting sleep optimization - Mitochondria damage and cell danger response - Stats on chronic fatigue syndrome - Challenges and shortcomings in medical testing   Products & Resources Mentioned: Bon Charge Red Light Face Mask: Just go to https://boncharge.com/myersdetox and your discount will be automatically applied at checkout!

Most people think of long COVID as something new, but for many, it's simply a different name for an old, complex pattern: chronic fatigue. In this episode of ReInvent Healthcare, Dr. Ritamarie sits down with Dr. Evan Hirsch (The EnergyMD) to discuss the clinical connections between long COVID, chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS), and the deeper biochemical imbalances practitioners must understand to reverse them.This is not a surface-level conversation. Dr. Hirsch breaks down the toxic five, his four-step recovery system, and why most testing methods fail to reveal the real root causes. You'll learn what to look for in clients presenting with post-COVID fatigue, why overtraining can backfire, and how to help clients finally move the needle.What's Inside This Episode?

Editorial cartoons distill political complexity into a single, unforgettable image. By exaggerating flaws, contradictions, and absurdities, they make power visible—often more effectively than prose. In this episode of Specifically for Seniors, we sit down with the legendary Steve Brodner, whose fearless illustrations have chronicled American political theater for decades. From the Library of Congress to the pages of The Nation, The Washington Post, and The LA Times, Brodner's pen has skewered hypocrisy, exposed corruption, and elevated satire into a form of civic resistance.As the first artist inducted into the Society of Illustrators Hall of Fame and the 2024 recipient of the Herb Block Prize, Brodner continues Block's legacy with wit, precision, and moral clarity. We begin by exploring what drew him to editorial cartooning as a form of civic engagement, and how Herb Block's groundbreaking influence continues to shape his work. Brodner reflects on the challenge of compressing complex political narratives into a single frame, and shares how he chooses topics, balances humor and anger, and measures the impact of his work—whether through public reaction, editorial reach, or civic discourse.We also discuss the risks of pushback and censorship, especially in his depictions of Trump and his allies, and take a closer look at one of his earlier works, The Winged Monkeys of Trump, to understand how he avoids caricature fatigue while maintaining sharp critique. Brodner opens up about his evolving Substack page, The Greater Quiet, explaining its shift in tone and motivation, and how listeners can access it at stevebrodner.substack.com.Throughout the episode, we showcase several of Brodner's recent illustrations—including Highest Standard of Living, 40 Million, Long COVID, Arc de Trump, and Chinatown—and invite him to unpack the metaphors and civic commentary embedded in each. We also explore the role editorial cartooning plays in resisting authoritarian tendencies, and how the medium can evolve to remain relevant in today's digital and participatory media landscape.Brodner offers advice on navigating a polarized media environment, and shares insights on how to view editorial cartoons with greater intelligence and nuance. We close with a look ahead at his upcoming projects, which continue his critique of institutional erosion and his commitment to visual accountability.This episode is best experienced on YouTube, where Brodner's illustrations come to life alongside the conversation. His work reminds us that satire isn't just entertainment—it's a form of truth-telling, a call to action, and a powerful tool for civic engagement.

Marlen Reusser kennt beides: Triumphe als Weltmeisterin und Europameisterin, gleichzeitig herbe Niederlagen wie Unfälle und Long Covid. Doch Leiden gehört für sie zum guten Leben dazu. Barbara Bleisch fragt nach, wie viel Schmerz die Leidenschaft erträgt und ob Talent verpflichtet. Marlen Reussers Karriere ist in vielerlei Hinsicht aussergewöhnlich: Trotz Kindheit auf dem Bauernhof zieht es sie zur Geige und bereits mit 14 Jahren wird sie Jungstudentin an der Hochschule der Künste in Bern. Später studiert sie Medizin, und als sie sich mit Mitte Zwanzig aufs Rad setzt, fährt sie kurz darauf allen davon. Erst als 27-Jährige wird sie Profisportlerin und holt im Zeitfahren praktisch alles, was es zu gewinnen gibt: nebst dem Weltmeistertitel auch viermal den Europameistertitel, die Olympia-Silbermedaille und zwei Tour de Suisse-Titel. Doch neben den grossen Triumphen kennt sie auch krachende Niederlagen, beispielsweise als sie ein WM-Rennen aufgibt, weil sie merkt, dass ihr an diesem Tag die Motivation fehlt. Ebenso werfen sie Unfälle und Krankheiten immer wieder zurück, besonders eine Long Covid-Erkrankung zwingt sie zu einer längeren Pause ohne zu wissen, ob sie je wieder gesunden wird. Mithilfe von Hypnose, wie sie sagt, kann sie die Krankheit schliesslich überwinden und gewinnt dadurch auch einen neuen Blick auf die Medizin und den Körper. Barbara Bleisch spricht mit der Ausnahmesportlerin über den Schmerz der Niederlage, über Grenzen im Kopf, den Rausch des Tempos und die Frage, ob Talent verpflichtet.

Five years after the pandemic began, the long-term impact of COVID-19—known as Long COVID—remains a controversial but crucial subject. In this episode of The Better Life with Dr. Pinkston. Dr. Pinkston explores an integrative approach to understanding and addressing post-COVID complications, combining holistic and contemporary medical information. She is joined by experts Robert Long and Dr. Hans Vink, who have conducted extensive research into the glycocalyx and microvascular function. They explain how the COVID-19 virus can severely damage this critical protective gel lining our blood vessels, leading to systemic inflammation, organ compromise, and a significantly increased risk of serious cardiovascular events like heart attacks and strokes—even in otherwise healthy individuals.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Vidya Sundar and Debra Brucker, co-principal investigators of the University of New Hampshire's new Disability and Rehabilitation Research Project (DRRP) on Living and Working with Long COVID and Disabilities, funded by the National Institute on Disability, Independent Living, and Rehabilitation Research (NIDLRR), discuss their proposed research activities to be implemented over the next five years. A critical piece of their research is to build on their prior study on the use and impact of “job crafting,” or how individuals can redesign their jobs to better align with their strengths without having to self-identify with a disability and rely on the formal disability accommodation process. To learn more about job crafting, and the other research projects to be implemented relating to people with pre-existing disabilities who have Long COVID, listen to this podcast.

Sharon Rennert, senior attorney with the ADA Division of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, has played a leading role in the development of their policy interpretations of the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Rehabilitation Act. In this podcast, Sharon explains the protections for people with disabilities in employment and how they apply to people with Long COVID. Rennert describes the importance for employers to understand the protections that job applicants and employees with disabilities have in the workplace, and the related responsibility for people with disabilities to understand the process for securing needed accommodations that enable them to perform the essential functions of their job.

Professor Yana Rodgers, Rutgers University and Professor Jennifer Cohen, Miami University discuss their collaborative research about Long COVID, disability and accommodation. Their research examines the prevalence of Long COVID across different demographic groups, and the extent with which workers with impairments associated with Long COVID have benefitted from remote work. People with pre-existing disabilities, women, sexual and gender minorities, individuals without college degrees and Hispanic people are more likely to experience Long COVID. These groups are also more likely to be clustered in jobs less amenable to remote work. Rodgers and Cohen suggest other types of accommodations for employers to consider, including flexible scheduling and task-sharing that re-evaluates essential job functions.

Pandemic Patients founder Andrew Wylam discusses the reasons he created the organization, and his vision for future national efforts to address issues facing individuals with disabilities with Long COVID. The organization also manages a COVID 19 Advocacy Center to connect individuals with Long COVID with policy makers in support of legislative proposals that will improve access to health services and expansion of family and medical leave policies. His organization offers a Legal Assistance Network that provides attorneys who volunteer their time to assist individuals with Long COVID with such issues as disability discrimination in the workplace and access to social security disability benefits. He explains some of the challenges he has encountered as he has advocated for policies that are shaped around Long COVID, but also discusses the importance of supporting individuals with Long COVID on a one-on-one basis to help them with their new daily challenges.

In this episode, Debi Robinson talks with Dr. Jenny Tufenkian, a naturopathic doctor specializing in long COVID, chronic fatigue, and environmental medicine. Together, they explore the deep connections between energy depletion, inflammation, and bone loss — and how true healing begins from within.Dr. Jenny explains how post-viral illness and stress can disrupt your body's terrain — the internal environment that determines how well you absorb nutrients, manage inflammation, and rebuild your bones. You'll learn why fatigue isn't just about energy; it's a message from your body that something deeper needs attention.If you've been struggling with exhaustion, brain fog, or unexplained bone loss, this episode offers clarity, compassion, and tools to help you recover your vitality and strength naturally.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeThe connection between long COVID, chronic fatigue, and bone healthHow inflammation and acidity weaken your body's terrain and bone-building capacityWhy stress hormones like cortisol can dissolve bone tissueThe importance of detoxification and restoring energy flowHow to rebuild your body's foundation using naturopathic and lifestyle toolsAction StepsListen to your body. Fatigue is a signal that your system is out of balance, not just a lack of willpower.Support detox pathways. Focus on hydration, fiber-rich foods, and gentle movement to support the liver and lymphatic system.Reduce inflammation. Choose anti-inflammatory foods, manage stress, and prioritize quality sleep.Rebuild from within. Consider working with a holistic or functional practitioner to address underlying causes like gut health and adrenal fatigue.Stay patient. Healing deep imbalances takes time—start where you are, and be consistent with self-care practices.Visit Dr. Jenny Tufenkian's work and resources: www.drjennytufenkian.comListen to more episodes: Stronger Bones Lifestyle PodcastLearn how to heal your bones and gut from the inside out: Healthy Gut, Healthy Bones ProgramDebi's TakeawayYour energy is your body's currency — and when you're constantly spending it on stress, inflammation, or recovery from illness, there's little left for building strong bones. Healing starts when you support your body's terrain — your gut, your detox systems, your emotional balance — so your bones can thrive again.

Illness can throw off your hormones—and it's not “just stress.” In this episode, Dr. Monica Minjeur explains how acute infections and Long COVID can delay ovulation, shorten the luteal phase, trigger heavier or brown bleeding, and decrease your energy. You'll learn what typically self-corrects within a couple of cycles, when 3+ irregular cycles signal deeper hormone or immune issues, and the exact steps of a restorative, cycle-informed workup (charting, timed progesterone/estradiol, thyroid, prolactin, iron/ferritin, and evaluation of inflammation). Practical strategies help you rebuild energy, protect ovulation, and restore regular cycles.If your cycles haven't bounced back after illness—or you're seeing heavier bleeding, short luteal phases, or no clear ovulation—you're not broken, and you're not alone. At Radiant Clinic, we use cycle charting and timed labs to pinpoint what your body needs and create a personalized plan.Schedule your free discovery call at radiantclinic.com to start restoring your cycle and your energy.

Welcome back to Beautifully Broken, where healing meets high performance. This week, I'm joined by Dr. Evan Hirsch, a board-certified holistic and integrative physician who's walked the talk of healing from severe chronic fatigue. After five years of debilitating illness that left him sleeping under his desk, Dr. Hirsch discovered the powerful interplay between environmental toxins, infections, and the nervous system — what he now calls The Toxic Five.In our conversation, we explore the real science behind fatigue and burnout, why most lab testing is unreliable, and how Dr. Hirsch helps patients recover naturally without endless supplements or expensive diagnostics. We also talk about mindset, resilience, and the importance of emotional regulation — how nervous system retraining can be the single most important step toward recovery.This is a masterclass in root-cause healing. If you've ever been told “your labs look fine” but you know something is off, this episode offers a roadmap to understanding your biology and reclaiming your energy. Episode Highlights[00:00] – Dr. Evan Hirsch's personal journey through chronic fatigue and losing everything before discovering his healing method[02:10] – Defining chronic fatigue syndrome and how it's misdiagnosed in conventional medicine[06:30] – The “Toxic Five”: heavy metals, chemicals, molds, infections, and nervous system dysfunction[10:40] – Why most testing fails and how to heal without expensive labs[16:50] – The “die-off dance”: how to detox without crashing your system[18:42] – Breaking down the four-step process to overcoming fatigue naturally[25:36] – Realistic healing timelines — why true recovery is a marathon, not a sprint[27:32] – The power of limbic system retraining for emotional and physical resilience[31:52] – Opening detox pathways: movement, hydration, saunas, and cold therapy[40:10] – Building comfort with discomfort — and how resilience is trained[44:44] – Red light, PEMF, and biohacking tools: when to use them (and when not to)[58:08] – Spike protein illness, long COVID, and how they tie into immune dysfunction[1:03:00] – Dr. Hirsch's daily rituals for balance, presence, and joy in healing Links & ResourcesDr. Evan Hirsch's Website: https://www.energymdmethod.comThe Biological Blueprint Program: https://www.beautifullybroken.world/Beam Minerals: http://beamminerals.com/beautifullybroken— Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKENSilver Biotics: bit.ly/3JnxyDD— 30% off with Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKENLightPathLED: https://lightpathled.pxf.io/c/3438432/2059835/25794— Code: beautifullybrokenCatchBio: https://catchbio.com — Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKEN CONNECT WITH FREDDIEWork with Me: https://www.beautifullybroken.world/biological-blueprintWebsite and Store: (http://www.beautifullybroken.world) Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/beautifullybroken.world/) YouTube: (https://www.youtube.com/@freddiekimmel Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

What You'll Learn Inside the LymeBytes philosophy: Healthy, gluten- and dairy-free meals, beach-side community dinner, structured networking, and vendor access that mirror the lifestyle principles used in treatment. Adjunctive therapies on site: Demos and education around hyperbaric oxygen therapy (OxyHealth), infrared/red light, Relax Sauna, Therasage, plus niche supplement brands (e.g., Alight by Dr. Jill Crista, NutraMedix, Lymecore Botanicals) and specialty labs for Lyme, co-infections, and mold. Precision testing & interpretation: Why test results (e.g., Western Blots, specialty panels) must be read in clinical context, and how collaboration between vendors and clinicians personalizes care. PRP/TruDose spotlight: A primer on platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and how TruDose aims to reset immune function and calm the nervous system using your own platelets—plus a teaser for a future deep-dive episode. Virtual experience (no FOMO): Live access to all clinician lectures, slides, full-day recordings to rewatch/scrub, and new vendor mini-interviews so remote attendees don't miss the expo value.

In this episode, Evan H. Hirsch, MD, breaks down why many people with ME/CFS and long COVID continue to feel tired even after treating Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV). If you've tried antivirals, herbs, or IV treatments and still aren't better, this episode explains why that may be the case.   Evan reveals how immune dysfunction, toxic overload, and the full Toxic 5, heavy metals, chemicals, molds, infections, and nervous system dysregulation, must all be addressed together for true healing. You'll also learn why lab tests often give false reassurance, and why protocols that only treat EBV tend to fail in complex chronic conditions.   Watch to understand: Why Epstein-Barr is rarely the only problem How toxins impair immune function and block viral recovery What the “Toxic Matrix” is and how it keeps you stuck Why Evan's 4-step program produces real results for ME/CFS & long COVID If you've tried everything and still aren't better, this episode could change everything.   .   We help you resolve your Long Covid and Chronic Fatigue (ME/CFS) by finding and fixing the REAL root causes that 95% of providers miss.

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Dr. Tania Dempsey.

Many challenging medical conditions defy treatment and challenge clinicians to come up with innovative solutions—Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, fibromyalgia, Lyme Disease, Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS), Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) and autoimmune conditions; add now the growing burden of patients with Long Covid and vaccine injury. Dr. Tania Dempsey specializes in treating these complicated chronic disorders. She has embraced and advanced a new paradigm based on addressing Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS). What is MCAS? How is it differentiated from ordinary allergies, and why are its symptoms so pervasive? What are its causes and triggers? What role for low-histamine diets? Antihistamines? Other novel medications? What nutritional supplements can facilitate its resolution? How does recognition of the contribution of MCAS facilitate treatment of patients suffering from Long Covid and vaccine injuries?

In this conversation, Dr. Michael Biamonte discusses the complexities of long COVID, emphasizing that it is primarily a result of adrenal exhaustion and candida overgrowth rather than the virus itself. He explores the interrelationship between gut health, hormonal imbalances, and the impact of environmental toxins, particularly plastics, on health.  This discussion also covers the importance of proper testing and treatment sequencing in addressing gut health issues, as well as the gut-brain connection and the effects of medications on overall health. Dr. Biamonte advocates for a personalized approach to nutrition and health management, highlighting the need for comprehensive testing and understanding of individual health needs.   Time Stamps:   (0:29) Understanding Long COVID and Its Effects (4:53) The Role of Candida in Health Issues (10:02) Hormonal Imbalances and Aging (17:32) Simplifying Gut Health Testing (38:02) The Gut-Brain Connection (48:57) The Impact of Medications on Health ------------------- Website: https://health-truth.com/   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drbiamonte/   Website: https://www.newyorkcitycandidadoctor.com/   Candida Chronicles: https://a.co/d/dmPsPFe ------------------- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/carolcovinofitness/ -------------------- My YouTube Channel: http://youtube.com/@carolcovinofitness -------------------- My Book:  FINDING PURPOSE IN THE PAUSE
