Podcasts about Lupus

There are mothers… and then there are matriarchs. This week in the Den, we sit down with Donna Jordan — lifelong visual artist, educator, proud grandmother, mother of three — and yes, the mother of Michael B. Jordan. But this conversation? It's about her. Donna shares what it really looked like to raise three creative children while nurturing her own artistry — creating art between caregiving and callbacks working in hand-painted silk and design to help support her family, and making sure her children saw her creating even when life was full. She opens up about being diagnosed with lupus in 1997, navigating fear and uncertainty, and “faking it” through pain so her children wouldn't carry the weight of her illness. She talks about what it means to mother through invisible disease, to show up when your body doesn't want to, and how watching her push through shaped her children's empathy and work ethic. And now? We see the fruit. Her children don't just succeed — they show up. They place her art on sets. They manage her business. They honor her publicly. They protect the woman she is and the legacy she built quietly for decades. This episode is about reciprocity. About raising children who return the love. About taking your “$10” for yourself. About reclaiming your time — at any age. If you've ever wondered whether your sacrifices matter… this one will sit with you.

What happens when an Infectious Disease specialist and a Rheumatologist look at the same gut?

This content is for informational and entertainment purposes only, you should not construe any such information or other material as legal, tax, investment, financial, or other advice.----------------------------------------For decades, lupus has remained one of the most complex challenges in modern medicine. Its extreme heterogeneity, where symptoms and triggers can vary widely from one patient to the next, has made the disease difficult to study, diagnose, and treat.As a result, lupus has often been passed over by traditional venture capital in favor of conditions with more predictable development paths.That dynamic is now beginning to change.A growing wave of scientific advances, regulatory progress, and an increasingly active clinical pipeline is signaling a turning point for millions of patients worldwide.At the center of this shift is Lupus Ventures, a mission driven investment fund launched by the Lupus Research Alliance.The fund combines the discipline of life sciences venture capital with a clear focus on return on mission, aiming to close the funding gap that has long stalled promising breakthroughs in autoimmune disease research.In this spotlight, we speak with Nishant Rastogi, Managing Director of Lupus Ventures.Drawing on more than a decade of experience in biotech private equity and venture capital, Nishant explains why he chose to lead a mission driven fund, why early diagnostics are critical to improving patient outcomes, and how Lupus Ventures is helping reshape how cures are funded for historically underserved diseases.Full interview ----------------------------------------Investing in Impact is powered by Causeartist, a nonprofit media company dedicated to bridging the gap between capital and culture by spotlighting founders, investors, and organizations reimagining how business can serve people and the planet.Through storytelling, events, and open-access education, Causeartist helps create a shared language of impact, inspiring more founders to build with purpose and more funders to invest with intention.By amplifying ideas and innovations across industries, Causeartist transforms awareness into action and cultivates a community where paying it forward is part of the foundation for growth.

After my own autoimmune journey, I'm always inspired by stories of rapid healing. Wendy Presant went from struggling with dry eyes, fatigue, and joint pain to seeing major improvements in just two weeks on the Autoimmune Protocol. What struck me most was her message about protecting our kids: only 30% of autoimmune risk is genetic, meaning we can actually change our children's trajectory. She breaks down the gut-microbiome connection, shares which nutrient deficiencies directly cause symptoms like dry eyes, and gives you practical tools you can start using today. Whether you're dealing with Sjogren's or any autoimmune condition, Wendy's spider web analogy will change how you think about managing your health.

In today's episode, I sit down with JJ Barrows, author, artist, and Dry Bar comedian, for a conversation about why humor might just be the most underrated healing tool we have. JJ is a deep-feeler who has found a way to make comedy out of the hard stuff, and this episode is proof that laughter and honesty go hand in hand.We get into JJ's unexpected email collaboration with Dolly Parton (which she was completely convinced was a scam), her handmade egg-carton crowns and what they're really about, and our shared love of extra accessories. We also get real about depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and my own experience with Lupus, and why finding the funny doesn't mean pretending everything is fine.Episode Timeline Highlights[00:00] – Introduction[04:02] – The secret Dolly Parton email: Why JJ was convinced she was being scammed until she heard the unreleased track.[08:26] – Calling a spade a spade: Breaking the "everything is fine" facade to talk about depression and recovery.[12:06] – Why comedy is more than just jokes: Using humor as a tool to take a breather from the tough stuff in the world.[15:19] – Unexpected therapy: The calming power of smelling a baby's head and why I talk to my chickens over the fence.[19:45] – The Crafting Queen: How JJ's egg-carton crowns are actually about giving other people their "golden buzzer" moment.[31:34] – Becoming fearless at 70: How facing mortality erased my stage fright and why I'll talk to anyone now.[46:23] – The secret to a great act: Why you owe it to your audience to do what they find funny, not just your own agenda.Connect With Us:Follow JJ Barrows on Instagram @ jjbarrowsJJ Barrows Official Website: jjbarrows.comJJ's Books: 'A Spade a Spade' and 'Kind of Funny'Watch JJ's Dry Bar Comedy Special on YouTubeFinal Thoughts:Thank you for tuning in for this one.

If you're struggling with brain fog, chronic fatigue, or autoimmune symptoms, this conversation might completely shift how you think about your body's detox system. In it, I sit down with Dr. Gina Nick to discuss why glutathione - our master antioxidant - is absolutely crucial for managing inflammation and autoimmune conditions. We dive deep into why most people need extra glutathione support, how brain fog and anxiety are often neuroinflammation in disguise, and simple daily actions you can take to support your body's natural detox system. This isn't about expensive IV treatments - it's about giving your body the physiologic support it needs to handle our modern world. ***Disclaimer: As an affiliate, I may earn from qualifying purchases made through the links in this episode.***For the complete show notes, links and transcripts, visit inspiredliving.show/231

Your weekly report from Abobolandia is here, it's hot, and it's served up fresh with a heavy dollop of snark. The attacks on the abortion pill mifepristone continue. HHS just said pharmacies don't have to stock abortion pills anymore. Cool cool cool. Totally normal functioning democracy stuff.Meanwhile, manufacturers of the pill are gearing up to fight what could become a national telehealth abortion ban, and for once we're actually rooting for Big Pharma. We won't make it a thing, we promise. GUEST ROLL CALL:Moji and Lizz sit down with Amy Hagstrom Miller, President & CEO of Whole Woman's Health, who is providing telehealth abortion care in 10 states while the federal government plays regulatory roulette with people's bodies. Independent clinics still provide the majority of abortion care in this country. Yes, indie clinics, not hospital systems, not corporations, and they are being squeezed from every direction. Then musician and activist Gwen Levey pulls up to talk to Moji about using her voice loudly in a moment when silence is complicity, and especially as the DOJ refuses to meaningfully pursue accountability for the victims of Jeffrey Epstein. Her video, “Barefoot & Pregnant,” recently went viral for highlighting the atrocities of Project 2026. Institutions bending over backwards for predators and cracking down on bodily autonomy is all part of their plan. But never, fear! We have the info you need and the tools to fight back.Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y'all.

Good morning from Pharma Daily: the podcast that brings you the most important developments in the pharmaceutical and biotech world. Today, we delve into the transformative landscape of the industry, where scientific advancements, strategic corporate maneuvers, and regulatory shifts are paving new paths for drug development and patient care.Starting with Amgen's recent progress, the company has achieved a significant milestone with its phase 2 trial of daxdilimab for discoid lupus erythematosus. This breakthrough could mark a turning point in lupus treatment, a notoriously challenging area due to the disease's complexity and variability. The success of daxdilimab may lead to more targeted biologic therapies that improve outcomes for patients with limited options. Additionally, Amgen's decision to resist the FDA's request to withdraw Tavneos underscores the intricate dynamics of regulatory negotiations, especially for treatments addressing niche conditions with critical patient needs. This scenario exemplifies the challenges in balancing regulatory scrutiny with clinical efficacy and patient needs.Novo Nordisk continues to assert its position in the competitive landscape of metabolic disorder treatments. Despite Pfizer's acquisition of Metsera, Novo is steadfast in advancing GLP-1 therapies, particularly focusing on innovative formulations that enhance patient compliance and efficacy. Novo Nordisk is also focusing on its oral version of Wegovy amid market pressures. Despite analyst concerns about this strategy's sufficiency, Novo remains confident in stabilizing its market position. The oral formulation represents an important innovation in drug delivery systems, potentially enhancing patient compliance and expanding therapeutic reach. This determination reflects Novo's long-term strategy to lead in obesity treatments, an area where GLP-1 receptor agonists have shown substantial promise.In another significant development, Eli Lilly has reported remarkable financial performance driven by its GLP-1 receptor agonists Mounjaro and Zepbound. These drugs have propelled revenues to $11.7 billion in the fourth quarter, surpassing analyst expectations and highlighting the growing demand for GLP-1 therapies crucial in managing diabetes and obesity.In a push for innovation, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has launched a $100 million prize for developing broad-spectrum antiviral therapies. This initiative comes at a crucial time when global health challenges demand versatile therapeutic solutions capable of addressing various viral threats. The competition encourages novel approaches in antiviral drug development, potentially leading to breakthroughs that could revolutionize infectious disease management.GSK's new CEO, Luke Miels, is setting a strategic course by identifying mergers and acquisitions valued between $2 billion and $4 billion as "hidden in plain sight" opportunities. This strategy mirrors a broader industry trend where companies bolster their pipelines through acquisitions that complement existing portfolios and expedite market entry for innovative therapies.The National Institutes of Health faces its own set of challenges amidst public scrutiny. Director Jayanta Bhattacharya's public dismissal of any link between vaccines and autism represents a crucial step toward reaffirming public trust in vaccination programs. This statement is vital in dismantling pervasive myths contributing to vaccine hesitancy and reinforcing the scientific consensus on vaccine safety.PrimeGen's pursuit of a SPAC route to Nasdaq highlights evolving capital-raising strategies within biotech, especially as stem cell therapies emerge as promising treatments for various conditions. Securing adequate funding through innovative financial instruments is critical for advancing research from preclinical stages to clinical applications.BioNTech's multi-modality platformSupport the show

Good morning from Pharma Daily: the podcast that brings you the most important developments in the pharmaceutical and biotech world. Today, we delve into a series of insightful updates that highlight the dynamic and rapidly evolving nature of these sectors, driven by scientific advancements, regulatory shifts, and strategic industry maneuvers.Starting with Merck, which is strategically planning for a post-Keytruda era, projecting over $70 billion in annual opportunities over the next decade. With Keytruda's patent expiration looming in 2028, Merck is actively expanding its portfolio through acquisitions and partnerships, focusing on oncology and immunology. These areas have been significantly impacted by Keytruda's success, and Merck's proactive approach aims to sustain growth and innovation beyond its current flagship product. During their 2025 full-year earnings call, CEO Robert Davis emphasized their expansive pipeline, highlighting recent strategic deals as pivotal to Merck's robust pipeline—the broadest it has been in years—signaling long-term growth through diversified therapeutic areas and innovative drug candidates.The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is making waves with its regulatory approach to CAR-T cell therapies for autoimmune diseases. This shift reflects an increasing recognition of the potential these therapies hold for transforming treatment paradigms for conditions like lupus and multiple sclerosis. By offering a more flexible regulatory framework, the FDA is encouraging innovation while maintaining a focus on patient safety.In other regulatory news, AstraZeneca faces a setback with the FDA's rejection of its subcutaneous version of Saphnelo for lupus. The decision underscores the challenges associated with developing more patient-friendly administration methods for biologics. However, AstraZeneca remains optimistic about achieving a quick turnaround in the approval process, which could enhance patient adherence by offering a self-administered alternative to intravenous infusions.Sanofi finds itself in the spotlight after CEO Paul Hudson was sanctioned by the UK's Prescription Medicines Code of Practice Authority for making overly ambitious claims about Pfizer's RSV vaccine. This incident illustrates the competitive nature of vaccine procurement and underscores the importance of accurate communication by pharmaceutical leaders.In Massachusetts, Thermo Fisher Scientific is reducing its workforce with the closure of its Franklin site, impacting around 200 employees. This move is part of broader strategic realignments within the industry aimed at optimizing operations and focusing resources on high-growth areas.Acadia Pharmaceuticals faces potential rejection by the European Union for its drug trofinetide intended for Rett syndrome. This highlights ongoing challenges in gaining approval for treatments targeting rare diseases, despite their significant unmet needs.Meanwhile, GSK plans to lay off up to 350 R&D workers across the U.S. and UK as part of efforts to streamline operations and focus on core therapeutic areas. Such layoffs reflect broader industry trends toward consolidation and efficiency amid rising R&D costs.On a more promising note, Pfizer's GLP-1 receptor agonist has demonstrated significant results in a Phase 2b trial for weight loss, validating their substantial investment in this area. The drug's potential to offer competitive weight loss results with monthly dosing positions it as a strong contender in the obesity treatment market. Additionally, Pfizer continues to accelerate its efforts in obesity treatment with promising mid-stage trial results for PF-3944, showing up to a 12.3% weight loss at 28 weeks. This suggests Pfizer is keen on expanding its presence in obesity management through strategic clinical development as competition within this therapeutic area intensifies.The U.S. Department of Health and HumanSupport the show

I've watched too many brilliant women struggle with weight despite doing everything "right.", so I asked Ashley Koff to join me and expose why the system has been rigged against us and reveals the real science behind the hormones that control our metabolism. Ashley shares her journey from "weight hot mess" to expert, explaining weight-health hormones like GLP-1, why your gut rules your entire ecosystem, and her revolutionary "deliciousness test" that fixes broken satiety signals. We dive into why 9 out of 10 Americans fail basic metabolic health tests, how GLP-1 agonists work as tools (not magic bullets), and why autoimmunity is really an operating system error. This conversation will change how you think about weight, health, and the tools available to support your body. For the complete show notes, links and transcripts, visit inspiredliving.show/229

Oral health is often treated as optional or cosmetic, but for people living with AiArthritis diseases, it can have a real impact on pain, fatigue, nutrition, and quality of life. In this episode, Leila and Bridget explore why oral health deserves a place in routine disease management and why so many patients are never told their symptoms are disease related. The episode looks at how autoimmune conditions and common medications can affect the mouth, from dry mouth and gum inflammation to delayed healing and increased infection risk. It also breaks down the connection between oral health, the immune system, and systemic inflammation, helping patients better understand why issues can show up even when oral hygiene is strong. Join us on this episode to hear practical, gentle strategies for protecting oral health when saliva is reduced or sensitivity is high. The discussion emphasizes adaptation over perfection and reinforces that oral health challenges are not personal failures, but part of living with complex chronic disease.   Episode Highlights: Why oral health is often overlooked and why it matters in autoimmune disease How inflammation, medications, and reduced saliva affect the mouth The link between oral health and conditions like Sjögren's, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and scleroderma Gentle, realistic strategies to protect teeth and gums without causing more harm   Links & Resources Go With Us!

Since this episode was released for the first time in May 2023, two recent studies of note have been published, providing an important update on patients' experiences of SLE in Latin America and Europe. These publications are summarisedbelow (full publications are available online):Study Summary:The Patient Experience of SLE in Latin AmericaQuintana R, et al. Living with systemic lupus erythematosus in 2024: Latin American experience based on a patient survey. Clin Rheumatol. 2025 Dec 5. doi: 10.1007/s10067-025-07867-1. This 2024 GLADEL network survey of 1,180 Latin American patients reveals a profound "well-being gap" in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) care. While 80.9% receive antimalarials and two-thirds feel "controlled," clinical stability masks a pervasive psychosocial crisis. The data shows that 60% of patients suffer from anxiety or depression, and 62.1% report significant professional or educational setbacks. Physical burdens remain high, including joint involvement (71.4%), skin issues (47.4%), and life-altering renal complications (37.5%). Furthermore, 43.7% noted negative impacts on emotional and sexual health.Despite heavy reliance on corticosteroids (55.7%), uptake of newer biologics remains low at 11.1%. These findings serve asa critical call for Latin American healthcare systems to adopt a "Treat-to-Target" model. This approach must move beyond mere symptom management to prioritize the restoration of a patient's social, mental, and professional agency. Study Summary:Unmet Needs of SLE Patients in EuropeCornet A, et al. Experiences and unmet needs of persons living with systemic lupus erythematosus in Europe: LupusEurope's 2024 Swiss knife survey. Autoimmun Rev. 2025 Jul 31;24(8):103838. doi: 10.1016/j.autrev.2025.103838. The 2024 "Swiss Knife" survey by Lupus Europe reveals a significant "perception gap" among 4,525 patients across 36 countries. While 66.5% believe their lupus is "under control," only 7.9% remained flare-free over five years, indicating a normalization of chronic symptoms.Several unmet needs remain. The study found that fatigue is the most prevalent symptom (84.9%) but remains the least addressed in clinical plans. Joint and muscle pain also remain high. Patients seek remission or low disease activity, yet 32% lack access to essential non-pharmacological therapies like physiotherapy. Over 31% report insufficient consultation time, often leaving discontent unvoiced.  Finaly, adoption of digital health tools remains low at 14.3%.The survey concludes that European SLE management must shift toward patient-centered care, prioritizing better physician-patient communication and digital health integration to address the disease's true physical and psychological burden.In this episode Dr Raquel Faria is speaking with Jeanette Andersen (Chair of Lupus Europe) and Professors Ricard Cervera and Maria Dall'Era.You can visit the Lupus Europe website here: ⁠https://www.lupus-europe.org/⁠Disclaimer: ‘During Lupus Academy podcast episodes, participants may refer to off label use of medicines for patients with lupus.

My guest today is Dr. Peter Osborne, known as "The Gluten Free Warrior," and he's about to blow your mind with what he's discovered about mold toxicity. If you've been struggling with autoimmune symptoms that won't budge despite making all the right diet changes, this episode might be the missing piece of your puzzle. Dr. Osborne breaks down the three distinct ways mold affects your health (hint: it's not just allergies), why those quick air tests are basically useless, and the shocking reality that at least 50% of buildings have water damage issues. We also dive into his six non-negotiable fundamentals for health that everyone needs to hear. This conversation could literally save your life or the life of someone you love.

When a reproductive endocrinologist shrugs and says "unexplained infertility," it doesn't mean there's no answer - they're just looking in the wrong places. In this episode I'm talking with Dr. Susan Fox, a Traditional Chinese Medicine expert with 23 years of fertility experience, about how ancient medicine patterns can solve fertility challenges that conventional medicine can't explain. Susan's own unexplained autoimmune condition led her to discover TCM, and now she's revolutionized fertility care with an integrated approach that combines the best of Eastern and Western medicine. Her results? A 42% increase in live birth rates with her online program. We dive into the real causes behind fertility struggles - from environmental toxins like microplastics showing up in places they shouldn't be, to autoimmune factors that conventional testing completely misses. Plus, Susan shares practical strategies you can start today to support your fertility naturally. This is essential listening whether you're trying to conceive, supporting someone who is, or want to understand how modern life is affecting our reproductive health.

Good morning from Pharma Daily: the podcast that brings you the most important developments in the pharmaceutical and biotech world. Today we're diving into a landscape rich with scientific advancements, strategic industry shifts, and regulatory developments that are shaping the future of healthcare.Let's start with AstraZeneca's recent success in the lupus treatment field. Their Phase 3 clinical trial for a self-administered subcutaneous form of Saphnelo marks a significant milestone. This new administration route could enhance patient convenience and accessibility, positioning AstraZeneca favorably against competitors like GlaxoSmithKline's Benlysta. The move underscores a growing trend in the industry towards more patient-friendly drug delivery systems, which could revolutionize treatment adherence and outcomes for autoimmune diseases.Turning our attention to Argenx, the company is navigating a pivotal leadership transition following the launch of Vyvgart, their autoimmune drug. This shift highlights the company's strong footing in the market after successfully obtaining regulatory approval and introducing Vyvgart. The potential expansion of its reach could further solidify Argenx's standing in the competitive autoimmune sector.Alumis is also making waves with its TYK2 inhibitor for psoriasis treatment, having reported promising Phase 3 data. This development places it as a formidable contender to Bristol Myers Squibb's Sotyktu. The positive trial results have not only boosted Alumis' stock value but also reflect a broader interest in immunomodulatory treatments which offer patients alternative therapeutic options with potentially fewer side effects.In an innovative leap within obesity management, Arrowhead Pharmaceuticals is advancing its dual gene-silencing assets aimed at reducing fat. Early-phase data indicates promising results, highlighting gene therapy's potential as a viable strategy for tackling complex conditions like obesity. This approach could pave the way for more personalized and effective treatments, aligning with the industry's gradual shift towards precision medicine.On the regulatory front, there's been notable movement with significant updates affecting drug approvals and recommendations. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's decision to remove six vaccines from the recommended childhood immunization schedule has stirred controversy due to its opaque review process. Such decisions carry profound implications for public health policies and vaccine uptake, sparking debates about safety and transparency.Meanwhile, GlaxoSmithKline's Exdensur has gained approval in Japan for two new indications, showcasing efforts to expand existing drugs' therapeutic applications across different markets. However, Sanofi has faced hurdles with the FDA rejecting its multiple sclerosis drug due to serious safety concerns, including liver injury risks. This rejection underscores the delicate balance regulatory bodies must maintain between efficacy and safety when evaluating new therapeutics.Amgen's strategic acquisition of a UK biotech firm for up to $840 million exemplifies ongoing industry consolidation trends. By integrating preclinical blood cancer programs into its portfolio, Amgen aims to strengthen its oncology pipeline—a critical area in today's competitive cancer treatment landscape. Similarly, Roche has strategically invested $100 million in a licensing deal with Structure Therapeutics to secure its position within the GLP-1 therapeutics sphere for metabolic disorders.These strategic acquisitions and partnerships highlight an industry focused on bolstering pipelines through external collaborations—essential for maintaining competitive edges in high-stakes therapeutic areas like oncology and metabolic disorders. As companies endeavor to innovate while ensuring safety, their efforts promise to enhance patient care by addressing unmet mSupport the show

I had the most fascinating conversation with Dr. Lé Santha Naidoo about something I see constantly in my practice: high-achieving women who've learned to "handle everything" but struggle to receive help—and how this pattern can literally make us sick. Dr. Naidoo is triple-board certified and author of "Fat to Fabulous," but what struck me most was her vulnerability in sharing her own healing journey. After losing a pregnancy in a car accident, she suffered 9 years of undiagnosed pain. When she finally had surgery, her community showed up in ways she never expected—and their support accelerated her healing more than any prescription could. We dive deep into how childhood trauma creates patterns that affect our health decades later, why purpose matters more than hormones for many symptoms, and how community support isn't just nice to have—it's essential medicine. If you've ever felt like you need to "have it all together," this conversation will challenge everything you think you know about strength and healing.

After 30 years in emergency medicine, Dr Newman learned a hard truth: She could save patients through their crisis, but they never actually got better. They'd leave with longer medication lists, only to return sicker. It wasn't until her own health crashed during menopause that she discovered cellular medicine - the missing piece that explains why we stay sick. In this conversation with Dr. Siobhan Newman, you'll discover why your mitochondria might be "underwater," her three dietary "nos" that are silently destroying your cellular health, and the recovery-first approach that must happen before any optimization. We dive deep into the inflammatory cascade, why COVID taught us so much about immune dysfunction, and practical steps you can take today to support true healing at the cellular level. If you're tired of managing symptoms instead of addressing root causes, this episode will change everything. For the complete show notes, links and transcripts, visit inspiredliving.show/223

Hola!!En el episodio de hoy converso con Jorge Fragío, médico especialista en Reumatología y doctor en Medicina, para hablar con calma, rigor y claridad de un tema que genera muchas dudas y, a menudo, también miedo: las enfermedades autoinmunes. Cada vez escuchamos más hablar de lupus, artritis reumatoide, enfermedad de Behçet u otras patologías autoinmunes. Pero ¿realmente son más frecuentes o simplemente las diagnosticamos mejor? ¿Por qué el sistema inmune, que debería protegernos, empieza a atacar a nuestro propio cuerpo?En esta conversación intento preguntarle como medico y paciente de varias enfermedades autoinmunes, preguntas importantes como:– Por qué parece que las enfermedades autoinmunes están en aumento y qué parte se debe a un mejor diagnóstico.– Qué se sabe hoy sobre las causas de la autoinmunidad y por qué no existe una única explicación.– Lupus: síntomas iniciales que pueden pasar desapercibidos durante años.– Artritis reumatoide: más allá del dolor articular, qué otros órganos puede afectar y cómo se manifiesta esa afectación.– Enfermedad de Behçet: en qué consiste y por qué es tan difícil de diagnosticar.– El papel del estrés, la alimentación y el estilo de vida en la aparición y evolución de estas enfermedades.– Complementos y nutrientes con mayor evidencia como apoyo, como la vitamina D o los omega 3, siempre como parte de un abordaje médico integral. Un episodio para entender mejor la autoinmunidad, poner contexto, desmontar ideas erróneas y recordar que hoy contamos con más conocimiento, para saber mas, temer menos y elegir mejor. Para mi un episodio muy especial, ojala para vosotros, tambien lo sea y os sirva para quienes tenéis enfermedades autoinmunes o para entender mejor a personas de vuestro alrededor que las tengan  Puedes seguir y aprender más de Jorge Fragío en Instagram: @drjorgefragioPara mas información ya sabéis que me tenéis en mi instagram @isabelvina dónde te comparto contenido diario Mi TikTok @isabelvinabasEn mi canal de YouTube Canal YoutubeY los suplementos formulados por mi en mi web  Mi web

At least 1.5 million people in the United States are living with lupus, a chronic and often misunderstood autoimmune disease. What are the most common myths about lupus – and who does it really affect? We spoke with Karen Costenbader, MD, MPH, director of the Lupus Program at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston, about early symptoms to watch for, potential environmental triggers, widespread misconceptions, and what patients can expect from their healthcare team when seeking diagnosis and care.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this heartfelt episode, Dr. Isabelle Amigues sits down with her patient Elizabeth Anthony to discuss her journey from a high school lupus diagnosis and years of difficult symptoms, to finally finding answers and support at UnabridgedMD. Liz shares her struggles with medications, navigating the healthcare system, and the power of listening to her own intuition—even when others doubted her. Together, they explore what true partnership in care looks like, why feeling heard matters, and how hope and persistence can lead to real healing.If you or someone you love is feeling lost or unheard in their autoimmune journey, this conversation is for you.  Subscribe for more patient stories, expert advice, and hope-driven science.#Lupus #AutoimmuneDisease #PatientStory #Rheumatology #Hope #ChronicIllness #UnabridgedMD #HealingJourney

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.

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.
