I used to think my clients just needed more willpower when they couldn't stick to their nutrition plans. Even as a registered dietitian, I struggled with this myself - having all the right information but still self-sabotaging my own health goals. In this episode, Gina Worful explains the real science behind why we lose control around food, and it has nothing to do with weakness. When stress hits, your brain shifts from logical decision-making to survival mode, making food taste better and shutting off fullness signals. You'll discover why your prefrontal cortex goes offline during stress, how to recognize early warning signs before cravings overwhelm you, and Gina's 3-step method to regulate your nervous system and make conscious food choices. This completely reframes self-sabotage as self-protection and teaches you to work with your body's natural responses.

I had goosebumps during this conversation with Johanna Dahlman, the Alopecia Angel. Her story from devastating hair loss diagnosis to growing thick hair an inch per month shows what's possible when you stop treating symptoms and start healing root causes. What really amazed me is that 90% of her clients see hair growth in under 8 weeks. Not through quick fixes, but by identifying blind spots like medications (birth control, SSRIs), hair products in active lawsuits, breast implants triggering autoimmune responses, and environmental toxins we never consider. This isn't just about hair though; it's about whole health. Her clients don't just regrow hair, they get their energy back, joint pain disappears, and they show up differently in relationships and careers. If you're dealing with any type of hair loss or autoimmunity, this conversation will shift how you think about healing.

Remission is no longer an abstract idea for people living with AiArthritis diseases. Thanks to earlier diagnosis, better treatment options, and growing global awareness, more patients are reaching remission and staying there. In this episode of AiArthritis Voices 360, Health Education Manager Leila P. L. Valete sits down with Neil Betteridge of the Global Remission Coalition to explore what remission truly means and why it is becoming a realistic goal for many. Together they unpack how remission differs from basic disease control and why that distinction is so important for daily life. They also talk through the emotional and practical impact of reaching remission, the role of early action, and the barriers that still prevent many patients from accessing timely care. The conversation highlights what sustainable remission looks like in the real world and how better education, support, and policy attention can help more people get there. Whether you are newly diagnosed or years into your patient journey, this episode offers a grounded and hopeful look at the road to remission and the steps that can make a life-changing difference.   Episode Highlights: What remission really means and how it differs from basic disease control Why remission improves quality of life, mental health, and daily function Key factors that help patients reach remission including early diagnosis and timely treatment Common barriers patients face like limited access to specialists, treatment delays, and lack of information What it takes to sustain remission through monitoring, adherence, and patient support   Links & Resources Global Remissions resources: www.globalremission.org AiArthritis remission information: https://www.aiarthritis.org/remission Have questions about this episode or topics you want to hear us bring to the table?

Florida is set to execute its record breaking 17th inmate of the year. And while the guilt of 63-year-old Richard Barry Randolph is not in question, the method by which he will die tonight is, according to his attorneys. Randolph suffers from Lupus and believes dying by lethal injection will be cruel and unusual given his condition, which his lawyers claim will amplify any sensation of pain. He’s been on death row for more than 3 decades now for the rape and brutal murder of his former coworker, and even though his death sentence had a far from unanimous jury decision, he has officially exhausted all of his appeals.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On this week's episode I'm joined by Leslie Kenny, founder of Oxford Healthspan and the Oxford Longevity Project. This conversation was one of the most profound transformations I've heard. At 39, while facing infertility and undergoing IVF, Leslie was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis, Lupus, and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis. She was told she only had five years to live and they couldn't help her with any treatments. Refusing to accept this prognosis, Leslie started a life changing transformation to reclaim her health and save her life. Through eliminating inflammatory triggers, restoring balance in her body, and supporting its natural healing process, she renewed her health from the inside out.At now 60 years old, she is autoimmune disease-free, conceived naturally at 43 and has the biological age of 21. In this deeply inspiring episode, Leslie opens up about her challenging story, sharing the lifestyle and dietary changes that made the biggest impact, and revealing the one hidden trigger almost everyone overlooks.Other links to include;Kaatsu Bandshttps://kaatsu.com/?srsltid=AfmBOoqbQOJM_X1c42tC_5v1DAbCByaPc6s2uIJwYDBAh6a4K3JrgfGkCode BEYONDTHEMAT for 20% discount https://oxford-healthspan.myshopify.com?sca_ref=9740151.EkSo3tsTaG87Z5CQ // MORE FROM BRYONY // Use BEYOND30 to get a free 30-days on the Pilates By Bryony app here.Visit pilatesbybryony.com and shop our products here.

The biggest hormone myth is finally being debunked, and it's kept millions of women suffering needlessly. I'm talking with Dr. Deb Matthew about the shocking truth: estrogen actually protects against breast cancer, with studies showing a 24% reduction in risk.

We dive deep into how hormone imbalances fuel autoimmune conditions, why your doctor might still be afraid to help you, and what you need to know to advocate for yourself.

Cannabis has come a long way since we last covered it in 2020. With more patients using CBD and medical cannabis to help manage chronic pain, inflammation, anxiety, and sleep issues, it is time for an important update. In this episode, AiArthritis Health Education Manager Leila P. L. Valete is joined by co-hosts and patient advocates Eileen Davidson and Bridget Seritt for a real conversation about what has changed, what we still need to learn, and what patients should know before trying cannabis for autoimmune and autoinflammatory arthritis. The hosts explore how research, attitudes, and medical discussions around cannabis have evolved. They share their own experiences using CBD and cannabis, discuss new findings from rheumatology research, and highlight the ongoing need for better access, safety education, and provider awareness. The conversation also looks at how stigma is shifting as more patients and clinicians see cannabis as a legitimate part of symptom management rather than a last resort. Whether you're new to the topic or already using cannabis as part of your treatment, this episode offers clear guidance, personal insight, and a thoughtful look at its role in patient care.   Episode Highlights: How conversations around cannabis and CBD have evolved since 2020 What new research says about its role in managing pain, sleep, and mental health Patient experiences using cannabis alongside traditional treatments Benefits, risks, and the ongoing debate around medical versus self-directed use How access, education, and stigma continue to shape patient choices   Links & Resources Go With Us! to EULAR 2025: Should Doctors Prescribe Cannabis for Autoimmune Disease?: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iw-KJWbKpuo Have questions about this episode or topics you want to hear us bring to the table?

  Yorgos Dousos is a multi-instrumentalist and composer located in Athens. He plays flute and clarinet to combine Greek music tradition, European jazz, and ambient electronic into an inspired musical experience. I got to hear an advance copy of his latest album - LUPUS, Love Under Pain, Upon Suffering - I knew immediately that I had to reach out to Yorgos about a guest mix. And here it is! Here's what Yorgos has to say about this set: “Late Night” is a small map of where my head has been living while finishing my new record. It's the hour when things get quieter, when the room feels bigger than it is and every sound has more weight. I wanted this mix to sit in that space where breath, memory, and repetition start to blur. It opens with my own pieces (“Marisha” and “Breath” from "LUPUS, Love Under Pain, Upon Suffering") because that's the emotional ground I'm working from lately. All of the tracks orbit the same questions I'm dealing with on the album: what it means for sound to feel physical and intimate but also distant and ghosted; how much you can say emotionally with or without melody; and where the human breath sits inside electronics and processing. Thanks, Yorgos, for this excellent mix!   LINKS TO ALL THE MUSIC USED IN THIS MIX: https://yorgosdousos.bandcamp.com/album/lupus-love-under-pain-upon-suffering https://johnalsobennett.bandcamp.com/album/ston-elai-na https://mastrokristo.bandcamp.com/album/passage https://kalimalone.bandcamp.com/album/the-sacrificial-code-2019-edition https://colinstetson.bandcamp.com/album/all-this-i-do-for-glory https://christinavantzou.bandcamp.com/album/no-1 https://haniarani.bandcamp.com/album/on-giacometti https://aphextwin.bandcamp.com/album/i-care-because-you-do https://timhecker.bandcamp.com/album/shards https://stroomtv.bandcamp.com/album/original-spirit   Cheers!   T R A C K L I S T : 00:00 Yorgos Dousos - Marisha (LUPUS, Love Under Pain, Upon Suffering) 04:53 John Also Bennett - Ston Elaiona (Ston Elaiona) 09:15 mastroKristo - The Dream (Passage) 12:53 Kali Malone - Sacrificial Code (The sacrificial code) 18:18 Yorgos Dousos - Breath (LUPUS, Love Under Pain, Upon Suffering) 24:00 Colin Stetson - Spindrift (All this I do for glory) 30:24 Christina Vantzou - 11: 11 (No1) 34:23 Hania Rani - Dreamy (On Giacometti) 37:11 Aphex Twin - Alberto Balsalm (…I care because you do) 42:22 Tim Hecker - Heaven will come (Shards) 47:02 Les Halles - Angels of Venice (Original Spirit) 51:33 end

Ever wonder why you can't stop craving sugar and carbs no matter how hard you try? It's not about willpower; it's about the wrong bacteria controlling your gut. Paul Barattiero, founder of Echo Water and pioneer in hydrogen therapy, reveals the shocking truth behind those relentless food cravings. Your gut should naturally produce 10-12 liters of hydrogen gas daily through proper fermentation, but most of us are nowhere near that. In this conversation, Paul shares how he accidentally discovered hydrogen water while desperately trying to heal his wife's severe health issues. What he found changed everything: 96% of your gut bacteria need a specific electrical environment to thrive, and when they don't get it, the wrong bacteria take over - literally controlling what you crave. I dive deep into the science behind why your microbiome needs negative electrical potential, how hydrogen water creates the perfect terrain for healing, and why you might finally be able to eat foods you've been avoiding for years. This isn't another wellness trend… We're talking about 1,500+ studies and real solutions for chronic inflammation and autoimmunity!For the complete show notes, links and transcripts visit inspiredliving.show/215

He was a native of Thessalonica, born of noble parents. His wisdom and distinction in battle earned him rapid advancement in the service of the Empire: in time he was appointed commander of all the Roman forces in Thessaly, and Proconsul of Hellas. Despite these worldly honors, Demetrius put his Christian faith before all, and by his words and example brought many pagans to faith in Christ.   When the Emperor Maximian, a persecutor of Christians, came to Thessalonica he appointed games and public sacrifices to celebrate his recent victory over the Scythians. Some jealous pagans used the visit to denounce Demetrius to the Emperor. Maximian had Demetrius cast into a fetid cell in the basement of some nearby baths. Maximian had brought with him a huge barbarian of tremendous strength named Lyaios, who fought many men in the arena and defeated them all, to the entertainment of the Emperor and the crowds. A young Christian named Nestor determined to show the people that the only true strength is in Christ: he visited Demetrius in his cell and asked for his blessing to challenge Lyaios to combat. The Martyr made the sign of the Cross over Nestor and sent him to the arena with his blessing. Nestor, a young boy, cried out before the Emperor 'God of Demetrius, help me!' and quickly killed the mighty Lyaios, to the astonishment of the crowd. The infuriated Emperor had Nestor slain with his own sword, and sent soldiers to Demetrius' cell, where they killed him with their spears. Demetrius' servant, a believer named Lupus, retrieved the body of Demetrius and buried it with honor. He kept the Saint's ring and blood-stained tunic, and through them worked several miracles and healings. When the Emperor heard of this, he had Lupus, too, beheaded.   As a sign of the grace that rested on the holy Demetrius, a fragrant myrrh flowed copiously from the Martyr's body after his death, healing many of the sick. For many centuries, St Demetrius has been a patron Saint of Thessalonica.

Women face far higher rates of autoimmune conditions like lupus and multiple sclerosis because of their double set of X chromosome immune genes and the effects of hormones such as estrogen Men experience more severe viral infections, higher cancer risks, and age-related immune decline in part due to testosterone's suppressive effects and the gradual loss of Y chromosomes in immune cells Hormones shift immunity across life stages, meaning puberty, pregnancy, menopause, and andropause all create unique windows of higher or lower disease risk that you can plan around Environmental factors such as diet, toxin exposure, and gut health interact with your genetic and hormonal makeup, shaping how your immune system handles inflammation and infection Precision strategies based on sex-specific biology allow you to lower risks — women can focus on reducing autoimmune triggers, while men benefit from strengthening defenses against severe infections and cancer

Send us a textThe world of invisible illness is a lonely place where "you look fine" becomes a painful refrain from well-meaning friends and family who can't see the war raging inside your body. For six years, I've navigated life with rheumatoid arthritis—an autoimmune disease where my body attacks my joints, causing inflammation, pain, and progressive damage from my fingers to my hips.This deeply personal episode peels back the curtain on what it's truly like living with chronic pain that others can't see. I share my diagnosis story, the countless medications and supplements that fill my daily routine, and how I've had to completely reimagine my identity. From the steroid shots that provide temporary relief to the heated blankets that have become my constant companions, I walk you through the practical realities of managing an autoimmune disease.But beyond the physical challenges lies a profound psychological journey. I've discovered what I call the "migraine hack"—how people readily show empathy for conditions they understand while dismissing autoimmune flares with a casual "can't you just suck it up?" I share the valuable Column A, B, C exercise from the Mayo Clinic that's helping me accept my new reality: Column A represents who I was before, Column C reflects my worst days, and Column B is the new identity I'm creating between those extremes.Whether you're battling an invisible illness yourself or love someone who is, this conversation offers both practical insights and emotional validation. For those suffering, you're not alone in this struggle. For those supporting someone with chronic illness, understanding is the greatest gift you can offer. Because when someone says they're in pain, believing them costs nothing—but dismissing their experience costs them everything. Thanks again for listening.
