Why You Should Listen:  In this episode, you will learn about the latest approaches to healing your body from mold toxicity, Lyme disease, and other complex, chronic health conditions. About My Guest: My guest for this episode is Dr. Neil Nathan.  Neil Nathan, MD has been practicing medicine for over 50 years and has been Board Certified in Family Practice and Pain Management and is a Founding Diplomate of the American Board of Integrative Holistic Medicine and a Founding Diplomate of ISEAI. He has written several books, including "Healing is Possible: New Hope for Chronic Fatigue, Fibromyalgia, Persistent Pain, and Other Chronic Illnesses" and "On Hope and Healing: For Those Who Have Fallen Through the Medical Cracks."  He has been working to bring an awareness that mold toxicity is a major contributing factor for patients with chronic illness and lectures internationally on this subject which led to the publication of his eBook, "Mold and Mycotoxins: Current Evaluation and Treatment, 2016" (now updated to 2022), and then to his best-selling book "Toxic: Heal Your Body from Mold Toxicity, Lyme Disease, Multiple Chemical Sensitivities and Chronic Environmental Illness."  2021 saw the publication of "Energetic Diagnosis," a discussion of the value of intuition and energetic devices as an aid to both diagnosis and treatment of medical illness.  In 2024, his book "The Sensitive Patient's Healing Guide" was released with a focus on how to approach the treatment of sensitive patients.  And most recently, in late 2025, the second edition of his book "Toxic" was released with several years of new information and insights on healing from complex chronic conditions.  Dr. Nathan has been treating chronic complex medical illnesses for 30 years now, and Lyme disease for the past 20 years.  As his practice has evolved, he finds himself increasingly treating the patients who have become so sensitive and toxic that they can no longer tolerate their usual treatments, and his major current interest is in finding unique ways of helping them to recover. Key Takeaways: Is Long COVID the Great Unmasker? Is POTS an underlying cause or is it a symptom? How might the Radiance Long Hauler testing be helpful? What supplements or botanicals may be helpful for those in a Cell Danger Response? Are hormones generally well-tolerated when one is in a Cell Danger Response? When might be the right time to introduce PC?  VIP? What are the more common sensitizers of a sensitive patient? What are the more common drivers of MCAS? What are some strategies for modulating the inflammatory response? Is MCS the same as MCAS? Should limbic retraining be more active? How often are mycotoxins seen in patients with Alzheimer's? Does HLA-DR impact a patient's recovery potential? How do you handle a suspected mold illness patient when their urine mycotoxin testing is negative? What is the best binder for mycophenolic acid?  Chaetoglobosin? Do the benefits of bentonite clay outweigh the potential risks? What is the source of gliotoxin in the body? How is the treatment of fungal colonization approached? What role have Actinobacteria and endotoxins played in treating patients? Can Bartonella be treated with natural antimicrobials alone? Does treating mold and Lyme improve EDS? Can secondary porphyria be an indication that the antimicrobial is working? What is the role of EMFs in chronic illness? How large of a factor are parasites? Do mold and Lyme contribute to ME/CFS, Fibromyalgia, autism, and PANS/PANDAS? What is the role of nitric oxide in recovering health?

In this episode, Evan H. Hirsch, MD shares an in-depth look at EBOO therapy (Extracorporeal Blood Oxygenation and Ozonation) and whether it's the right choice for people dealing with ME/CFS and Long COVID.   EBOO therapy is designed to oxygenate and ozonate the blood, with potential benefits like killing infections, boosting mitochondrial function, and removing heavy metals. While this sounds promising, Evan explains why this treatment may not be appropriate early in the recovery process, especially if detox pathways aren't properly supported.   Using clear examples and his proven four-step process, Evan breaks down why timing matters and how a slow, structured approach to detoxification is key to sustainable progress. He also discusses why EBOO and similar therapies are often best used near the end of a healing journey, not the beginning.   Want to understand what's really keeping you sick and how to detox at a rate your body can tolerate?

On this episode of Vitality Radio, we tackle one of the most overlooked and misunderstood health concerns of our time: Histamine Intolerance and Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS). These conditions often appear with “mystery symptoms” like skin issues, digestive discomfort, headaches, fatigue, and strange food or chemical reactions—many of which have surged in the post-COVID era. Jared explains what histamine really is, why your body sometimes produces too much of it, and how mast cells can become overactive, creating a flood of inflammation. You'll learn about the role of DAO (Diamine Oxidase), the enzyme that helps break down food-based histamine, and why supplementing it can be a game-changer for many. You'll also hear about supportive tools and practical strategies to lower your histamine load, calm mast cells, and rebuild gut health. If you've been dismissed, told it's “just anxiety,” or left without answers, this episode offers clarity, hope, and practical steps to explore. Relief is possible—and it starts with understanding the root cause.Products DiscussedAdditional Information:DAO Blog Post with High Histamine Food ListVisit the podcast website here: VitalityRadio.comYou can follow @vitalitynutritionbountiful and @vitalityradio on Instagram, or Vitality Radio and Vitality Nutrition on Facebook.

Why You Should Listen:  In this episode, you will learn about breakthrough therapies for chronic illness recovery including EBOO and TPE. About My Guest: My guest for this episode is Dr. Tami Lyday.  Tami Lyday, DO, MS has been a physician since 2006 and a functional and integrative specialist since 2017.  Prior to that, she spent 11 years as a family practitioner but was never quite satisfied with conventional medical approaches.  Her mother's illness and subsequent side effects of traditional treatments prompted her to learn more about integrative medicine, and she has not looked back.  Dr. Lyday believes functional and integrative medicine is the best way to ensure lasting recovery as it helps patients determine the root of their health issues and does not rely on medications that treat symptoms while ignoring the underlying causes of illness.  She pursued training and certifications in functional and integrative medicine, including specialty training and certifications in the treatment of mold-related illnesses and Lyme disease. At the time of her certification, she was one of only 26 practitioners in the world who were Shoemaker certified in mold treatment protocols.  After 4 years as a functional and integrative medical practitioner, she opened The Lyday Center to provide a dedicated resource for people who are suffering from mystery illnesses and ailments that don't respond to conventional treatment and are seeking natural solutions to their chronic illnesses.  Since that time, she has expanded her specialties to include the treatment of thyroid disorders and overall energy levels.  Her mission is to heal the world one patient at a time. Key Takeaways: How much does environmental toxicity contribute to chronic illness? How is a patient tested for mold illness? What binders are most commonly used for detoxification?  Do natural binders have a place? What is the role of Actinobacteria and endotoxins in CIRS patients? Can a patient have fungal colonization and potentially benefit from antifungals? Does treating mold also treat Lyme and coinfections? How important is working on the limbic system to set the stage for healing? How might EBOO and TPE support those with autoimmunity? Where in a recovery timeline do EBOO and TPE best fit? Does Hashimoto's occur without mold? What is the role of EBOO?  What is the EBOO process? What is done before and after EBOO to support the patient? Can patients have detoxification or Herxheimer reactions after EBOO or TPE? How might EBOO and TPE help those with Long COVID? What types of infections might EBOO support? What is the role of TPE?  What is the TPE process? What types of toxicants and toxins can be filtered out? How is the removed plasma replaced Might beneficial materials be removed with TPE? Can EBOO or TPE help those with neurodegenerative conditions?

In this episode, Evan H. Hirsch, MD explains how to recognize, manage, and move through die-off reactions (also known as Herxheimer responses) during recovery from ME/CFS and long COVID. These temporary flares can occur as the body starts eliminating heavy metals, mold, infections, and other toxins, and they don't have to derail your healing. Evan shares the exact 4-step system used inside the EnergyMD Program to support the body during this process, including how to: Open up detox pathways (liver, kidneys, lymph, and more) Adjust herbal protocols using microdosing Avoid “crashing” and pivot with grace when symptoms flare This is what Evan calls the “Die Off Dance”, a strategic, flexible approach to detox that respects the body's limits and prevents burnout during healing. If you've ever felt worse before getting better, this episode will help you understand why, and what to do next. .

Dr. Robert Groysman returns to discuss the mechanisms behind Long Covid, focusing on mitochondrial dysfunction and its role in symptoms like fatigue and brain fog.• Dr. Groysman identifies six major mechanisms in Long Covid: dysautonomia, mitochondrial dysfunction, gut dysbiosis, endothelial dysfunction, mast cell activation syndrome, and hormone imbalance• Most Long Covid patients experience multiple mechanisms simultaneously, requiring comprehensive treatment• Mitochondria are cellular organelles responsible for energy production, with different cell types having varying densities based on energy needs• COVID-19 not only damages mitochondria but uniquely impairs the body's ability to repair and replace them• Post-exertional malaise occurs when damaged mitochondria burst during overexertion, triggering inflammatory processes• Recovery requires gentle, patient approaches rather than aggressive interventions that can cause setbacks• Dr. Groysman's two-step protocol involves daily antioxidant support followed by seven days per month of carefully managed mitophagy• Complete recovery typically takes 3-12 months and cannot be rushed without risking relapses• Dysautonomia often needs treatment before other mechanisms can be successfully addressed• Pacing is critical to avoid crashes that cause additional mitochondrial damageCheck out my previous episodes with Dr. Groysman to learn more about the Stellate Ganglion block and other treatment approaches for Long Covid.Links:https://www.facebook.com/groups/longcovidsgb      https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61553548547314   https://www.longcovidfamily.com/Message the podcast! - questions will be answered on my youtube channel :) For more information about Long Covid Breathing courses & workshops, please check out LongCovidBreathing.com (music credit - Brock Hewitt, Rule of Life) Support the show~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~The Long Covid Podcast is self-produced & self funded.

I'm Stacey Simms and every other Friday I bring you a short episode with the top diabetes stories and headlines happening now. XX Accessibility to modern diabetes technology directly correlates with A1c among children with type 1 diabetes globally. Big, cross-sectional study, conducted in 81 pediatric diabetes centers in 56 countries, found that a greater extent of reimbursement for continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), insulin pumps, glucose meters, and insulin was associated with lower A1c levels. Partha S. Kar, MD, Type 1 Diabetes & Technology lead of the National Health Service England, told Medscape Medical News, “As is now being shown in countries such as UK with widespread uptake of technology, there is now population-wide shift in A1c not seen before.”   He added, “If policymakers are serious about bringing A1c at a population level to sub-7.5% - 8% levels, then without technology it would be incredibly difficult to achieve, in my experience and opinion. Leaving the median A1c of a population at above 7.5%-8% goes with complications so that's a decision regarding investment many will have to make in the near future.”   In an accompanying editorial, Elizabeth R. Seaquist, MD, professor of diabetes, endocrinology, and metabolism and co-director of the Institute for Diabetes, Obesity, and Metabolism at the University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, called it “striking” that access to technology in and of itself was associated with improved glycemic control, given that multidisciplinary team care is also needed to provide education and behavioral or psychological support.     https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/diabetes-tech-access-linked-a1c-kids-t1d-globally-2025a1000nn6 XX A man with type 1 in Illinois has received the first FDA-approved islet-cell replacement treatment, Lantidra, and  he is now producing his own insulin. The treatment works by restoring the body's beta cells, potentially eliminating the need for insulin injections.   The FDA approved Lantidra (donislecel) in 2023. Lantidra uses donor cells and requires lifelong immunosuppressive drugs.     Lantidra is only available at University of Illinois Chicago Health. Other universities, such as the University of Pennsylvania, continue to do islet cell transplants as part of clinical trials. Early data has shown that a majority of participants in the Lantidra clinical study were able to achieve some level of insulin independence, but it's unclear whether the benefits of donislecel outweigh the treatment's safety risks. Nearly 87 percent of participants reported infection-related adverse events, and post-operation complications included liver lacerations, bruising of the liver (hepatic hematoma), and anemia. One patient died of multi-organ failure from sepsis, which Lantidra maker CellTrans stated was “probably related” to the use of either immunosuppression or study drugs.   In addition, some industry leaders have raised the question of whether it's ethical to commercialize the use of deceased donor islet cells. https://diatribe.org/diabetes-research/first-fda-approved-islet-cell-transplant-performed?utm_campaign=feed&utm_medium=social&utm_source=later   XX Patients in the U.S. now have access to the first generic GLP-1 treatment approved for weight loss as Teva has launched its copycat of Novo Nordisk's injected Saxenda (liraglutide).   The compound, which is a GLP-1 forerunner of Novo's semaglutide products Ozempic and Wegovy, has been approved by the FDA to treat adults with obesity and those who are overweight and have weight-related medical problems.     Saxenda also is endorsed for pediatric patients ages 12 through 17 who are obese and weigh at least 60 kg (132 pounds). The treatment is for both triggering and maintaining weight loss. Saxenda is not the first GLP-1 drug that is available as a generic. In June of last year, Teva also was the first company to launch a knockoff version of Novo's Victoza, which is the same compound as Saxenda but has been approved only for patients with Type 2 diabetes. Sales of the branded versions of both Victoza and Saxenda have declined significantly in recent years as demand for Novo's semaglutide and Eli Lilly's tirzepatide products have skyrocketed. In addition, marketers of compounded products have been aggressively competing for market share in the GLP-1 space. https://www.fiercepharma.com/pharma/saxenda-knockoff-teva-launches-first-generic-glp-1-obesity   XX Metformin could cut the risk of Long COVID by 64% in overweight or obese adults who started the drug within 90 days of infection. The large observational study, published in Clinical Infectious Diseases, analysed health records of over 624,000 UK adults with COVID-19 between March 2020 and July 2023. Among these, nearly 3,000 patients who began metformin treatment soon after diagnosis were tracked for a year. Compared to non-users, their likelihood of developing Long COVID, defined as persistent symptoms 90 days or more after infection, was dramatically lower. https://www.ndtv.com/health/metformin-cuts-risk-of-long-covid-by-64-why-the-diabetes-pill-is-not-for-everyone-9242332 XX Forty-four percent of people age 15 and older living with diabetes are undiagnosed, so they don't know they have it, according to data analysis published Monday in the journal The Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology. The study looked at data from 204 countries and territories from 2000 to 2023 in a systematic review of published literature and surveys. “The majority of people with diabetes that we report on in the study have type 2 diabetes,” said Lauryn Stafford , the lead author of the study.   “We found that 56% of people with diabetes are aware that they have the condition,” said Stafford, a researcher for the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation. “Globally, there's a lot of variation geographically, and also by age. So, generally, higher-income countries were doing better at diagnosing people than low- and middle-income countries.” People under 35 years were much less likely to be diagnosed if they had diabetes than people in middle age or older. Just “20% of young adults with diabetes were aware of their condition,” Stafford said. https://www.cnn.com/2025/09/08/health/diabetes-undiagnosed-half-of-americans-wellness XX A team of Hong Kong scientists is developing an injectable treatment that could potentially improve blood flow in diabetes patients' feet, in the hopes that it will reduce the need for amputation by rebuilding tissue in the arteries.   They also hope to apply the treatment to peripheral artery disease or PAD, a condition caused by the build-up of fatty deposits in arteries that affect blood circulation in the feet. “Traditional treatments for people suffering from poor blood flow in their legs are stent implantation or bypass surgery, which is invasive,” said Wong, who is also the co-founder of a biotechnology company called NutrigeneAI. He said it was his dream to turn research in the academic field into actual clinical treatments. But he added that the team still needed three to four years for further research on the treatment.   https://www.scmp.com/news/hong-kong/health-environment/article/3324671/hong-kong-scientists-developing-new-blood-flow-treatment-aid-diabetes-patients XX   Tandem Diabetes announces Health Canada authorization for distribution of the Tandem t:slim mobile application for Android and iPhone users. The Tandem t:slim mobile app allows users to deliver a bolus from their compatible smartphone, and to wirelessly upload their pump data to the cloud-based Tandem Source platform.1 The app is expected to be available later this year.   The Tandem t:slim mobile app will be available for compatible smartphones in the Apple App Store and Google Play store later in 2025. Once available, Tandem will email eligible customers with instructions on how to download and use the app.  https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20250904665715/en/Tandem-tslim-Mobile-App-Now-Authorized-by-Health-Canada-for-iPhone-and-Android-Phones   XX Some changes to how the Eversense CGM will be rolled out.. right now it's being distributed by Ascensia Diabetes Care.  Senseonics will take back commercial control of the year long implantable CGM on January 1 in the US and expanding worldwide throughout 2026. The change was a mutual decision, according to the two companies, which said they have signed a memorandum of understanding before a definitive agreement is hammered out by the end of the year. To get started, Senseonics is also set to acquire members of Ascensia's commercial staff—including its CGM president, Brian Hansen, who is slated to become Senseonics' new chief commercial officer. https://www.fiercebiotech.com/medtech/senseonics-retake-eversense-cgm-commercial-control-ascensia-diabetes-care XX Utrecht-based medical device company ViCentra has closed an $85 million Series D round of funding led by Innovation Industries, along with existing investors Partners in Equity and Invest-NL. The round also drew support from EQT Life Sciences and Health Innovations.   The recent capital injection will be used to expand ViCentra's manufacturing capabilities, support regulatory approvals, and strengthen commercial rollout across Europe.   The funds will also be used to launch the next-generation Kaleido 2 patch pump in Europe and prepare for entry into the U.S. market.   The global insulin delivery market is growing quickly due to the increasing number of diabetes cases and demand for effective and user-friendly solutions. The market for insulin pumps is projected to exceed $14 billion by 2034. Patch pumps are the fastest-growing segment, signalling a trend toward compact and wearable devices. And here's where ViCentra is positioned to meet this need, offering a user-friendly, sleek design-led alternative to traditional systems.   Kaleido: design-led insulin delivery Kaleido is the smallest and lightest insulin patch pump developed as a lifestyle product with a particular focus on usability and personalisation.   Designed to feel more like personal technology than a traditional medical device, Kaleido features premium materials, and users can select their own favourite aluminium shells from a range of ten preset colour options.   It integrates with Diabeloop's hybrid closed-loop algorithms (DBLG1 and DBLG2) and is compatible with Dexcom CGM sensors, positioning it within the next generation of automated insulin delivery systems.   “Kaleido is a true disruptor — small, discreet, featherlight, and beautifully designed. It empowers people with diabetes by offering a more personal and distinctive choice in both function and style. Built with empathy and precision, it honours those who live with diabetes every day. With this funding, we can now meet surging European demand and fast-track our entry into the U.S. market. This is a pivotal moment — for ViCentra, and for the community we serve,” said Tom Arnold, Chief Executive Officer at ViCentra.   Improving the quality of life for diabetic patients ViCentra, led by Tom Arnold, is on a mission to improve the lives of those with diabetes.   The company reported that demand for Kaleido in Germany, France, and the Netherlands has already exceeded initial expectations.   ViCentra will present updates on Kaleido at the 61st Annual Meeting of the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD), taking place September 15–19, 2025, in Vienna.   The company plans to engage with clinicians, investors, and strategic partners to further its role in the evolving diabetes care landscape.   “ViCentra is redefining insulin pump therapy with a platform that truly centres the user experience – combining clinical performance with design simplicity and wearability,” commented Caaj Greebe, Partner at Innovation Industries. “At Innovation Industries, we invest in pioneering companies that blend world-class technology with clear commercial potential. ViCentra exemplifies this by delivering a next-generation system addressing the urgent need for better treatment options in diabetes care. We're proud to lead this investment round and partner with Tom and the team as they deepen and expand their presence in Europe and prepare for U.S. entry.”   https://techfundingnews.com/dutch-vicentra-secures-85m-to-bring-insulin-patch-pump-to-more-markets/ XX Luna Diabetes announces they've raised more than 23-million dollars in early venture capital to help continue clinical trials and build out its capacity. This is the company that wants to offer a night time only, tiny, temporary insulin pump – to supplement insulin pen use. According to the company, more than 80% of the improvements in blood sugar from automated insulin delivery systems occur while the user is sleeping. Luna launched a pivotal trial late last year. https://www.fiercebiotech.com/medtech/nighttime-insulin-patch-pump-maker-luna-diabetes-raises-236m   XX Following 15 days and 150 fingerpricks, they're here. The results of the “9 sensor samba“. And what a set of a results…   Well maybe that's overplaying it a little.   Let's just say that the outcome of this n=1 experiment wasn't quite what I expected. One of the established players came out much worse than expected, while a newcomer did a lot better.   Let's dig in, and take a look at the variation. https://www.diabettech.com/cgm/the-nine-sensor-samba-results-revealed/   XX Hard work and perseverance define ranch life, but one man in eastern Montana takes it to another level. At 90, he's still living independently on the ranch he built from the ground up. Even more remarkable? He's a type 1 diabetic.   Bob Delp still begins each day just like he did decades ago, waking up on his ranch near Richey, Montana.   “I always thought if I could ever get a ranch and run a hundred cows, that's what I wanted to do from the time I was a kid,” said Delp.   He made that dream real, the hard way; after coming home from the army, he taught school, hayed for seven cents a bale and saved every cent he could.     “I worked at it real hard because I always felt like it was going to be part of getting me to that ranch that I always wanted,” said Delp.   He did it all while managing type 1 diabetes, a diagnosis that came with few answers and little hope back in the 1950s.   “The doctors tell me being a type 1 diabetic for 66 years isn't supposed to happen. Back then, it was a real challenge,” added Delp.   Statistically, it's almost unheard of. Fewer than 90 people in the world have lived more than 70 years with type 1 diabetes.     Bob credits his late wife, Donna, for helping him beat the odds.   “She has been key in that I always ate on time.”   They've faced their share of storms, both in health and out on the land. Not long after moving to Richey, a heavy snowstorm nearly tore everything apart just after they'd stepped out for dinner.   “If Donna hadn't said it was time to eat, we wouldn't have made it out of there. I guess that's one time that made me happy to have diabetes. And I think that saved us,” said Delp.     Now, he still checks his blood sugar daily but trusts his hands more than high-tech insulin pumps.   “I'm not satisfied with the sensors they have today.

In this powerful episode of What Happens in Vagus, Dr. Stephanie Canestraro sits down with marketing strategist and Lyme warrior Allie Chandler to share their parallel journeys through chronic illness, mold exposure, POTS, and long COVID. Together, they uncover the hidden connections between stealth infections, environmental triggers, and dysautonomia symptoms many patients struggle to explain. Allie shares her decade-long experience with Lyme disease, mold toxicity, and functional medicine recovery—including the ups and downs of working high-stress jobs while healing—and reveals the holistic, functional, and sometimes unconventional protocols that moved the needle in her recovery, from limbic system retraining and EMDR to parasite cleansing and homeopathics. Dr. Steph discusses the importance of being non-dogmatic in healing, how the vagus nerve and lymphatic flow play a central role in chronic symptoms, and why open communication between patients and practitioners leads to breakthroughs. If you've ever felt dismissed by the conventional system, are navigating post-COVID or mold-related health challenges, or want to explore functional medicine tools for healing your heart, nervous system, and immune resilience, this episode offers both practical tips and hope. More on Allie:Allie Chandler, founder of Upsell Health (www.upsellhealth.com), is a leading marketing strategist specializing in functional medicine and wellness brands.

In the past few weeks there has been another round of a "bug" going around here in Idaho. I started to feel symptoms but hit it hard and knocked out whatever I caught within one day. In this short episode I give a crash course on what I believe to be the most important supplements to take when you feel like you are dealing with a viral infection. I prioritize vitamin, mineral, and enzyme supplements before going to herbs, methylene blue, or antiparasitics. Vitamins and minerals are foundational and deficiencies are common. During an acute or long-term infection your burn rate of nutrients will be a lot higher so you must supplement accordingly. I talk about the importance of taking copper if you're taking zinc, the exact biochemical mechanisms how ascorbic acid works to balance the system, the lipid peroxidation and viral connection, why vitamin E is an underrated supplement, why superoxide dismutase (SOD) is so important to support during long covid, how lithium has been a known anti viral since 1980, and why melatonin should be a crucial part of your antiviral medicine cabinet.

CIRS & Long COVID: Hidden Epidemic and Healing Steps with Dr. Brian Rodgers

In this episode of the Gutsy Health Podcast, Juanique sits down with Dr. Brian Rodgers to shed light on CIRS (Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome) — a condition affecting up to 25% of the population. They break down what CIRS actually is, why so many people are undiagnosed, and how it can be triggered by mold, Lyme disease, spider bites, and even COVID or the COVID vaccine.Juanique and Dr. Rodgers explore how CIRS impacts the gut, brain, mitochondria, and immune system — often showing up as fatigue, anxiety, depression, hormone imbalances, brain fog, and long COVID. They also dive into the 12-step protocol for treatment, with a focus on the first three critical steps: reducing environmental triggers, using the right binders, and treating MARCoNS (nasal bacteria).The conversation is equal parts science and lived experience, with Juanique sharing her personal journey with CIRS, the overwhelm of starting treatment, and the hope that comes from taking healing step by step.Key TakeawaysCIRS is common: Around 20–25% of people carry the gene that can trigger CIRS.COVID is a trigger: Both infection and vaccination have been shown to turn on CIRS genes, often presenting as “long COVID.”Multi-system impact: CIRS disrupts neuropeptides, hormones, and mitochondria, leading to mood disorders, fatigue, leaky gut, and hormone imbalance.Children are affected differently: Kids often show fewer symptoms (headaches, anxiety, chronic infections, bedwetting) but can still carry the condition.First 3 steps matter most: Safe environment, binders (like Welchol or cholestyramine), and MARCoNS treatment are non-negotiable for healing.Healing takes time: Most patients need 12–24 months to move through the 12-step protocol, with incremental improvements along the way.Adjunctive therapies: Tools like eBOO, hyperbaric oxygen, IVs, neurofeedback, and phospholipid therapy can help “jumpstart” depleted bodies.Hope is key: Even if progress feels slow, consistent steps lower the body's toxin load and restore function over time.Chapters00:00 – Introduction & Juanique's experience with CIRS03:25 – Why so many people are undiagnosed08:09 – The hidden pandemic of CIRS and COVID as a trigger10:32 – How CIRS affects the gut, brain, mitochondria, and immune system15:18 – Children and teenagers with CIRS: symptoms to watch for20:05 – The overlap between CIRS, MCAS, and histamine intolerance27:10 – Chronic infections, asthma-like symptoms, and immune dysfunction31:57 – Step 1: Safe environment and mold remediation39:04 – Step 2: Binders and reducing the toxin load43:49 – Step 3: Treating MARCoNS and brain fog relief48:40 – Why some patients need “bigger tools” to jumpstart healing53:22 – Steps 4–12: Gut, hormones, neuropeptides, and VIP therapy58:09 – How long CIRS healing really takesLinks & ResourcesJoin the Gutsy Academy!
