In this episode, Laura talks with bereaved mom Jody Hudson, whose daughter Alex died at the age of 22 after a long battle with undiagnosed Lyme disease. Jody shares the heartbreaking journey of watching her daughter suffer through years of unanswered medical questions and treatments, and the deep grief that followed Alex's death. Yet in the midst of unimaginable loss, Jody made a conscious decision not to allow grief to define her identity, but instead to seek God's direction for how to move forward. Through faith, honest conversations with God, and a desire to honor Alex's life, Jody found purpose in helping others, including starting a foundation to support Lyme disease patients. Her story offers encouragement for grieving parents who feel lost in the darkness, reminding them that while grief is real and lasting, it does not have to define their future. With God's help, it is possible to carry our children with us while still finding meaning, hope, and purpose again. Jody Hudson is a faith-filled mother, author, and speaker who shares hope from the depths of loss. After walking alongside her daughter Alex through years of medical uncertainty (which was correctly diagnosed as Lyme disease in 2017), Jody now speaks honestly about grief, identity, and choosing how we show up after life-altering loss. She is the author of My Promise to Alex, an award-winning memoir woven with themes of faith, resilience, and a mother's enduring love. Jody encourages grieving parents to trust God, move forward with purpose, and remember that grief may shape us, but it does not define us.

In this episode of the Healing Powers Podcast, host Laura Michelle Powers speaks with medical doctor and functional medicine expert Dr. Kelly McCann about mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS), histamine intolerance, and the growing number of people experiencing unexplained chronic symptoms. Although mast cell activation was only first described in medical literature in 2007, research suggests that up to one in five people may be affected.Dr. McCann explains how mast cells—an important part of the immune system—can become overly reactive due to environmental toxins, mold exposure, infections, stress, and trauma. When this happens, it can trigger widespread inflammation throughout the body and lead to symptoms such as allergies, brain fog, digestive issues, insomnia, migraines, anxiety, and fatigue. Laura also shares her own experiences with mold exposure and sensitivities, highlighting how many people struggle to get answers through conventional testing.Learn more about Dr. Kelly McCann at thespringcenter.com As Dr. Kelly referenced, you can find more information and locate mold-aware professionals through the International Society for Environmentally Acquired Illness (ISEAI): https://iseai.org/Kelly K.

What if Alzheimer's, multiple sclerosis, chronic fatigue, and even psychiatric symptoms are not random but driven by hidden infections? In this episode of Integrative Lyme Solutions, Dr. K sits down with research scientist and Lyme survivor Nikki Schultek to explore the infection hypothesis behind chronic disease. After battling years of misdiagnosed symptoms including asthma flares, interstitial cystitis, arrhythmias, neurological decline, and suspected MS, Nikki uncovered a complex web of infections including Borrelia, Bartonella, Babesia, Chlamydia pneumoniae, Epstein-Barr virus, and more. Now founder of the Alzheimer's Pathobiome Initiative, Nikki is leading a global consortium investigating how stealth pathogens may trigger neurodegeneration, immune dysfunction, and dementia. This conversation dives into intracellular infections, the Herxheimer reaction, amyloid as an antimicrobial response, sterile brain autopsies, precision medicine, and why federal health agencies are finally acknowledging Lyme disease as a serious public health crisis. If you or someone you love is dealing with chronic Lyme, long COVID, autoimmune illness, or cognitive decline, this episode may change how you see disease.

In this groundbreaking episode of the Tick Boot Camp Podcast, we interview Dr. Jayakumar Rajadas, a Stanford Medicine researcher who has discovered multiple breakthrough therapeutic candidates for Lyme disease, Babesia, and Bartonella. His work includes the discovery of Disulfiram's effectiveness against Lyme and Babesia, Azlocillin's potent activity against Lyme and Bartonella, and advanced targeted drug-delivery systems designed to preserve the gut microbiome. Dr. Jay's research has been featured in TIME Magazine (Azlocillin) and Forbes (Disulfiram), and connects deeply with the work of leading Lyme researchers, including Dr. Monica Embers (Tulane), Dr. Kim Lewis (Northeastern), Dr. Kenneth Liegner, and Dr. Brian Fallon (Columbia University). This interview delivers hope, science, and unprecedented detail on what may become the next generation of Lyme disease treatments. Key Topics Covered 1. How the Stanford Tick Initiative Sparked a New Era of Drug Discovery In 2012, Stanford launched a major initiative in response to community demand for better Lyme treatments. Dr. Rajadas was selected to lead drug development, focusing specifically on persistent/chronic Lyme disease, where few researchers were working. 2. Understanding Borrelia: Active vs. Stationary Forms & Why Chronic Lyme Persists Dr. J explains the three key survival modes of Borrelia burgdorferi: Active Phase The bacteria are replicating and metabolically active. Easier to kill with standard antibiotics. Stationary Phase Bacteria reach population limits and slow down growth. Represents early persistence mechanisms. Persister Forms Triggered by stressors like antibiotics (e.g., doxycycline). Bacteria fold into round bodies, spiral forms, or compact “cement-like” protective balls. These forms: Shut down metabolic pathways Resist penetration Survive antibiotic exposure Why Doxycycline Can Fail Doxycycline can induce persisters, causing Borrelia to form impenetrable protective shells rather than die. This is why many patients initially feel better, then relapse. 3. Disulfiram (Antabuse): Lyme + Babesia Breakthrough Featured in Forbes One of the biggest scientific shocks of the last decade: Discovery Through Stanford's high-throughput screening of FDA-approved drugs, Disulfiram emerged as a top hit. Clears Borrelia (including persistent forms) Clears Babesia — a major advantage over standard antibiotics Does NOT harm the gut microbiome Is already FDA-approved and widely used for alcohol aversion therapy Highly potent but requires careful dosing due to side effects in inflamed patients. Why Some Patients Improve, and Others Suffer Chronic Lyme patients already have heightened inflammation. Disulfiram is a powerful molecule whose polymorphic forms behave differently in different people. His lab developed: Less toxic formulations Buccal & sublingual delivery systems Rectal delivery options These may reduce neuropsychiatric side effects reported by some patients. Clinical Connections Dr. Kenneth Liegner pioneered clinical use and published cases Dr. Brian Fallon conducted NIH-listed clinical trials. Many clinicians now use Liegner's protocols. Real-world example: Matt shares the story of Brooke Stoddard (Generation Lyme), who regained his life after Disulfiram treatment under Dr. Liegner. 4. Azlocillin: The Antibiotic That TIME Magazine Called a Gamechanger If Disulfiram is the Lyme and Babesia weapon, Azlocillin may be the frontline tool for Lyme and Bartonella. Why Azlocillin Is Revolutionary Eradicates both active and persister forms of Borrelia. Destroys doxycycline-induced “cement ball” persisters by drilling into their vulnerable cell-wall synthesis pathways. Proven effective against Bartonella when paired with azithromycin, based on research by Dr. Monica Embers (Tulane) . The Cell-Wall Vulnerability Breakthrough Persisters STILL must maintain minimal cell-wall synthesis to survive. Azlocillin exploits this tiny vulnerability: It penetrates the protective sphere Breaks the “cement wall” Forces the bacteria out of hibernation Kills them rapidly This discovery is one of the biggest scientific leaps in Lyme research in a decade. The Delivery System That Protects the Gut Microbiome Azlocillin is extremely hydrophilic, making absorption difficult.Dr. Jay fixed this by creating: A magnesium-lipid nanoparticle formulation Designed to release in the upper intestine Avoiding the colon (where most microbiome lives) This allows: High bloodstream absorption Minimal microbiome damage Oral availability of a drug previously only available via IV Why Azlocillin May Be Better Than Disulfiram Hits Borrelia + Bartonella Stronger anti-inflammatory effects No polymorphism issues Fewer side effects Potent against persisters A company is preparing to bring his oral formulation to clinical trials by next year. 5. Loratadine (Claritin): The First Clue from 2012 Before Disulfiram and Azlocillin, Dr. Jay's lab identified Loratadine (Claritin) as a manganese transporter inhibitor of Borrelia. Why it mattered: Borrelia uniquely relies on manganese, not iron. Blocking manganese uptake may weaken the bacteria. The discovery went viral, with many patients reporting improvement even at OTC doses—though the binding affinity was weak. This project introduced the concept of drug repurposing for Lyme to the scientific community. 6. Melittin (Bee Venom) — The Micro-Needle Patch Alternative Bee venom therapy is widely used in the Lyme community, but risks stings and allergic reactions. Dr. J is developing: Melittin micro-needle patches Delivering the active peptide without stinging Using dissolvable, painless needles A safe, controlled, pharmaceutical-grade delivery approach This could modernize bee venom therapy and make it more accessible. 7. Mechanism of Brain Fog & Fatigue in Lyme: A Major Breakthrough Dr. Jay's lab published a neuroscience paper demonstrating: Outer Surface Protein (Osp) Nanoparticles Borrelia sheds lipid-coated outer membrane particles. These form stable nano-vesicles that: Enter the bloodstream Cross into the brain Cause mitochondrial dysfunction Reduce ATP production Result: Brain Fog, Fatigue, Cognitive Dysfunction This explains why neurological Lyme can persist even after bacterial levels drop. This work ties strongly to ongoing research at Columbia University under Dr. Brian Fallon. 8. Collaborations With World Leaders in Lyme Research Dr. J's research intersects with: Dr. Kim Lewis (Northeastern University) Reproduced and validated Disulfiram findings publicly. Helped launch interest in persister-killing therapies. Dr. Monica Embers (Tulane University) Demonstrated Azlocillin + Azithromycin effectiveness against Bartonella. One of the world's foremost experts in persistent infection models. Dr. Kenneth Liegner Early clinical pioneer of Disulfiram therapy. Published stunning recovery cases. Dr. Brian A. Fallon (Columbia University) Leading psychiatrist specializing in post-treatment Lyme. Conducted planned Disulfiram clinical trials. These collaborations form a powerful network accelerating treatment development. 9. New Anti-Inflammatory Discoveries: Galangin & More Dr. Jay recently co-authored a 2025 paper on: Galangin (Thai ginger rhizome extract) Which may reverse cardiac inflammation and fibrosis His team is also exploring other nutraceutical molecules for chronic inflammation relief in Lyme patients. 10. Dr. Jay's Personal Story of Illness and Hope He reveals for the first time: He was diagnosed with Stage 3 Multiple Myeloma Lost the ability to walk Suffered unbearable pain After cutting-edge therapies and research, he is now in full remission His message to Lyme patients: “There is ALWAYS hope.”
MAHA News is back with a packed Friday show covering the latest developments in health policy, technology, and transparency. The hosts kick things off by discussing a proposed New York bill that would restrict AI chatbots from offering medical or legal advice, raising questions about whether powerful industries are trying to slow the disruption AI is bringing to healthcare and professional services. They also examine a new MIT study suggesting heavy reliance on AI tools may weaken critical thinking and memory retention. From there, the conversation shifts to Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s push for greater accountability in the food industry, including calls for Dunkin' and Starbucks to release safety data on high sugar drinks. The show also highlights a new initiative requiring medical students at dozens of schools to complete nutrition training before graduation, a step toward addressing chronic disease through better education. Later in the episode, the hosts break down major declassification claims from Dr. Robert Malone linking historical U.S. military experiments to the spread of Lyme disease. They also discuss newly announced peptide policy changes, debates over glyphosate lawsuits, and continued scrutiny of vaccine messaging from federal health agencies.

Illinois lawmakers are pushing for more federal support to fight Lyme disease. The House public health committee has adopted a resolution sponsored by State Representative Dan Swanson, which calls for increased funding to find a cure. Swanson highlighted a rise in Lyme cases across the state, noting that available data may underestimate the problem, as major employers' insurance plans aren't included in official counts. The measure also urges the State Board of Education to launch tick-bite prevention lessons for schoolchildren, who are at particular risk. May 2026 would be designated as Lyme Disease Awareness Month under the resolution, now headed to the full House.
As climate and ecological conditions shift across the United States, the geographic boundaries of several tick species are expanding—and with them comes growing confusion about the diseases they carry. In this episode, we explore the spread of the Lone Star tick (Amblyomma americanum) and the blacklegged tick (Ixodes scapularis), and how their overlapping ranges are complicating the diagnosis of tick-borne illnesses.One of the biggest challenges is distinguishing between Lyme disease and STARI (Southern Tick–Associated Rash Illness). Both conditions can present with a similar bull's-eye rash and early flu-like symptoms, yet they are caused by different organisms and may require different approaches to diagnosis and treatment.Join us as we examine how shifting tick habitats, changing ecosystems, and evolving patterns of human exposure are reshaping what we thought we knew about tick-borne disease risk.
What if the story behind Lyme disease isn't as straightforward as we've been told? I'm sitting down with Dr. Sam Bailey, medically trained physician, researcher, and co-author of Virus Mania, to explore one of the most debated diagnoses in modern medicine. Instead of accepting assumptions, this conversation looks closely at the scientific foundations behind Lyme disease, testing, and the narratives many people never think to question. We explore: • The history behind the Lyme disease diagnosis • How Lyme disease testing actually works • The difference between correlation and causation in medical science • Why antibody testing may not mean what many believe it means • The psychological impact of receiving a diagnosis • The terrain perspective on chronic illness Dr. Bailey also shares why many people feel trapped by medical labels and how shifting the focus from pathogens to terrain, environment, and lifestyle can open the door to deeper healing. If you've ever been diagnosed with Lyme disease, struggle with unexplained symptoms, or want to understand health beyond the conventional narrative, this episode will challenge you to think differently. Because sometimes the most important step toward healing is asking better questions.
What happens when Lyme disease goes undiagnosed for 15 years — and the emotional toll becomes just as devastating as the physical symptoms?In this episode of Integrative Lyme Solutions, Dr. K sits down with Susan Pogorzelski, author of The Last Letter: A Novel and founder of the Lyme Brave Foundation. Susan shares her 30-year journey through misdiagnosis, neurological decline, co-infections like Babesia, severe fatigue, psychiatric symptoms, and the long road of recovery. From being dismissed by doctors to experiencing suicidal ideation during treatment, Susan opens up about the isolation, trauma, and resilience that shaped her healing.This powerful conversation explores Lyme misdiagnosis, Babesia treatment, herxing, emotional trauma, nervous system regulation, EFT tapping, relapse recovery, and how chronic illness can reshape identity. If you or a loved one is navigating chronic Lyme disease, co-infections, or the emotional weight of invisible illness, this episode is both validation and hope.Key Takeaways:0:00 Introduction3:15 15 years of misdiagnosis and declining neurological health8:20 Gallbladder surgery, rapid deterioration, and ER visits12:05 Lyme diagnosis and multiple co-infections confirmed15:40 Babesia treatment and what moved the needle in recovery19:30 Herx reactions, suicidal ideation, and psychological symptoms23:50 Emotional trauma, loneliness, and invisible illness27:45 EFT tapping, nervous system healing, and energetic tools30:10 Relapses, flares, and building resilience over time33:00 Lyme Brave Foundation and supporting patients emotionallyResources Mentioned:Susan Pogorzelski Website - https://www.susanpogorzelski.com/aboutLyme Brave Foundation - https://lymebravefoundation.orgThe Last Letter: A Novel by Susan Pogorzelski - https://www.amazon.com/Last-Letter-Novel-Susan-Pogorzelski/dp/0988875136Medical Disclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or replace professional medical advice.

Send a textIn this episode of Never Been Sicker, Michael Rubino sits down with Scott Forsgren (Better Health Guy) to unpack what actually helps people recover from complex chronic illness. Scott shares his 30-year journey that began with a tick bite, years of severe symptoms, and 45 doctors before finding answers in Lyme and co-infections, and later, mold exposure.Together, they break down why “kill, kill, kill” protocols often fail, why symptoms overlap across mold, Lyme, metals, and immune dysregulation, and what Scott sees as the true foundations of healing: nervous system regulation, mast cell stability, detox and drainage support, and addressing the external environment.They also dig into controversies around urine mycotoxin testing, ERMI interpretation, and why you may improve while living in exposure, but you typically won't fully recover until the environment is addressed.Chapter markers00:00 Intro00:44 Scott's health story begins (tick bite, sudden symptoms)02:47 First real breakthrough: Lyme and co-infections04:51 What Scott would do differently07:14 Moving beyond “kill, kill, kill”10:03 Can symptoms tell you it's mold?12:20 Why we've never been sicker17:00 Biggest mistakes after diagnosis20:36 The foundational steps to healing34:02 Can you heal while living in exposure?38:33 Urine mycotoxin controversy41:58 ERMI, HERTSMI-2, and interpretation50:04 Mycotoxins, spores, fragments, and why “killing” is not enough56:26 The biggest lie: the label59:28 ILADS vs IDSA and what's true on both sides01:03:02 Where to find Scott + final hope message01:06:10 Outro-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Host Erin Kerry interviews internationally recognized naturopathic physician and functional medicine leader Dr. Jaquel Patterson to unpack why anxiety, depression, and ADHD are skyrocketing…and why medications often stop working. Dr. Patterson explains the missing link between chronic inflammation, infections, gut health, and neuropsychiatric symptoms — especially in kids and teens. They discuss the labs your doctor may not be running, how to identify biological drivers of mental health struggles, and why functional medicine looks beyond “normal” ranges to find what's optimal. Key Topics: - Chronic inflammation and how it disrupts the blood-brain barrier, neurotransmitters, and medication effectiveness - The biological drivers behind rising rates of anxiety, depression, and ADHD - Why standard labs miss key issues — and the optimal ranges that matter (ferritin, cortisol, thyroid, CRP, IL-6, ESR, testosterone) - How infections, including strep, Lyme disease, and tick-borne co-infections impact behavior, mood, and cognition - Understanding PANS/PANDAS and sudden-onset OCD, anxiety, and tics in children - The role of gut health, antibiotic exposure, and microbiome repair in brain development - Nutritional supports for kids: amino acids, protein intake, lithium orotate, beef liver, and micronutrients - Mold and environmental toxicity: why symptoms often get misdiagnosed as psychiatric - When medications stop working — and the physical issues to rule out - Practical first steps: blood work, environmental assessments, and small habits for long-term healing Links: Website: http://fairfieldfamilyhealth.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/drjaquel/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/naturopathic.physician/
Why settle for normal when we the target should be peak human health optimization, what I call superhuman? With the billions being put into the biotech industry, wearables, more access to all sorts of techniques, and now the unimaginable power of AI, it truly does seem the limits of health at the moment are boundless. That's the world my guest Dr Sanjeev Goel inhabits, and today we discuss our clinical experience and what we see working for human health and mental performance.Dr. Sanjeev Goel is a Canadian physician, speaker, and longevity expert widely known as “The Happiness and Longevity MD.”, his career spans over five decades and includes remote medical service in Himalayan communities as well as teaching mindfulness and resilience to healthcare professionals.

Three memes allegedly found on Kouri Richins' phone the morning her husband's body was removed. "I'm rich." Their three sons were still upstairs, unaware their father was dead.The Kouri Richins murder trial has opened with explosive allegations—and immediate credibility problems for the prosecution's key witnesses.Prosecutor Brad Bloodworth laid out the theory: $4.5 million in debt, an affair with Josh Grossman, Caribbean vacation plans for one month after Eric's death, nearly two million in life insurance allegedly taken out without his knowledge. A fifteen-minute gap before the 911 call—phone unlocked six times while Eric lay dead. Internet searches about women's prisons and lie detector tests.But the foundation is shaky. Carmen Lauber, the woman who claims she sold Kouri fentanyl, has been granted immunity—and allegedly changed her story only after police threatened prison time. Her own dealer signed an affidavit claiming he sold OxyContin, not fentanyl. The Moscow mule glasses Eric drank from were never tested. No pills were ever recovered. The house was never searched for fentanyl. The death certificate lists manner of death as unknown.Defense attorney Kathryn Nester played Kouri's 911 call for the jury—raw, sobbing, barely coherent. She painted Eric as a man struggling with Lyme disease, chronic pain, and painkiller dependence.Eighteen days before his death, Eric allegedly told friends he thought his wife tried to poison him. That testimony is still ahead.Criminal defense attorney Bob Motta breaks down where this case can be won—and lost.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Why You Should Listen: In this episode, you will learn about the role of Supportive Oligonucleotide Therapy, or SOT, in the treatment of Lyme disease and vector-borne infections. About My Guest: My guest for this episode is Dr. Clayton Bell. Clayton Bell, MD is a leading integrative and functional medicine physician dedicated to helping patients achieve deep, lasting wellness. Dr. Bell works with Lyme and vector-borne infections, integrative cancer support, environmental medicine including mold, mycotoxins, heavy metals, and detoxification; hormones, cardiometabolic and GI health, and mind-body balance.

Key Takeaways: What place does SOT have in the treatment arsenal for chronic Lyme disease? What is AOT or Antisense Oligonucleotide Therapy? What testing is acceptable for a practitioner to request an SOT for a patient? What testing is offered by Biocentaur? How does SOT work in the body? How does the practitioner determine which SOT to request when many infections may be positive? What SOTs are available for vector-borne infections and viruses? What are the foundational steps to prepare a patient for an SOT? Do certain therapies need to be stopped before testing and while doing SOT? How important is immune modulation or creating immune tolerance to the microbes? What is the SOT administration process? How are Herxheimer reactions addressed with using SOT? Can the SOT push back one infection and then lead to another becoming the dominant focus of the immune system and symptom presentation? How long should there be between SOTs? Is there a maximum number of SOTs that can be done? Can SOT reach all potential reservoirs of infection in the body? What role do biofilms play in the context of SOT? Have any specific SOTs been helpful in the contents of EDS, PANS/PANDAS, or Long COVID? What role might SOT play in neurodegenerative conditions? Can SOT resolve autoimmunity, inflammation, or oxidative stress? When SOT does not appear to work, how does the practitioner troubleshoot potential reasons? - What is the cost of SOT?

What happens when Lyme disease steals a child's health and a family's sense of normal? In this powerful episode of the Love, Hope, Lyme Podcast, Fred Diamond speaks with Dr. Somer Delsignore, CEO and Founder of Hudson Valley Integrative Health and a member of International Lyme and Associated Diseases Society (ILADS), about the hidden realities of pediatric Lyme disease. Dr. Somer specializes in neuro-immune conditions in children and adolescents, uncovering root causes behind complex autoimmune and psychiatric symptoms related to tick-borne illness. Together, Fred and Dr. Somer explore what no one tells parents at diagnosis — including: Why the Lyme journey is rarely linear The guilt many parents carry — and why it's misplaced Gaslighting, medical trauma, and rebuilding trust The emotional toll of identity loss and grief in chronic illness How schools can better support children with fluctuating symptoms Navigating family dynamics when others "don't see" the illness Realistic hope vs. toxic positivity Dr. Somer also shares insights on congenital Lyme, teenage independence during chronic illness, caregiver burnout, and how small wins become powerful milestones in long-term healing. This episode is especially important for parents of children and teens with Lyme disease — but it will resonate with any caregiver navigating chronic illness. As Dr. Somer reminds us, "Hope isn't toxic positivity. Stability is success." If you or someone you love is walking this road, this conversation offers clarity, compassion, and grounded hope.

Defense attorney Kathryn Nester came out swinging in opening statements of the Kouri Richins murder trial, systematically attacking the prosecution's evidence chain and the credibility of their key witness. The legal battle lines are now drawn for what could be a five-week trial with a woman's life hanging in the balance.Nester's strategy centers on Carmen Lauber, the woman who allegedly sold Kouri fentanyl. According to the defense, Lauber changed her story only after police threatened her with prison time. More damaging still: Lauber's own drug dealer later signed an affidavit claiming he sold her OxyContin, not fentanyl. If Lauber never had fentanyl, how could she have sold it to Kouri?The defense highlighted critical gaps in the investigation. The Moscow mule glasses Eric allegedly drank from on the night of his death were never tested for fentanyl. The Kamas home was never searched for the drug. The medical examiner's death certificate lists manner of death as unknown—not homicide.Nester painted Eric Richins as a man battling Lyme disease, chronic pain, and dependence on prescription painkillers—a profile that could explain fentanyl exposure through contaminated street drugs rather than deliberate poisoning. She played Kouri's 911 call for the jury: raw, sobbing, desperate.Prosecutor Brad Bloodworth countered with alleged memes found on Kouri's phone the morning Eric's body was removed, a fifteen-minute delay before calling 911, $4.5 million in debt, an affair with Josh Grossman, and internet searches about women's prisons and lie detector tests.Eric's sister Katie Richins-Benson testified about Kouri's allegedly cold, business-focused demeanor while the family grieved. The defense challenged her memory and noted the family invested $100,000 in a private investigator.Carmen Lauber and Josh Grossman testimony still to come.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Eric Richins was a husband, a father of three boys, and by all accounts a successful businessman building wealth in Utah's booming real estate market. On March 4, 2022, he was found dead in his Kamas home. Now his wife Kouri stands trial for his murder—and opening testimony revealed the vastly different portraits prosecutors and defense attorneys will paint of both the victim and the accused.Eric's sister Katie Richins-Benson took the stand and described the family's devastation in the days after his death. She testified that while relatives collapsed in grief, Kouri allegedly remained composed and focused on business—moving forward with plans to close on a multimillion-dollar mansion and sell the home where Eric had died just days earlier. Katie painted a picture of a brother whose marriage may have looked different from the inside than the public image suggested.The prosecution alleges Kouri was carrying on an affair with Josh Grossman and had booked Caribbean vacation plans for one month after Eric's death. They claim she was drowning in $4.5 million of debt and stood to gain substantially from Eric's life insurance and the couple's real estate holdings.Defense attorney Kathryn Nester offered a counter-narrative: Eric struggled with Lyme disease, chronic pain, and dependence on prescription painkillers. The defense challenged Katie's testimony and noted the Richins family invested $100,000 in a private investigator to build a case against Kouri.At the center of it all are three boys who lost their father and may lose their mother. Eric's sons were still upstairs, unaware of his death, when prosecutors allege Kouri was looking at memes on her phone saying "I'm rich."The truth about what happened to Eric Richins may finally emerge in the weeks ahead.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

It's called mineral balancing for a reason because throwing random electrolytes into your body without a roadmap can actually make you feel worse. Today, I'm sitting down with Matthew Coffman, founder of Valence Nutraceuticals, to talk about why your mineral strategy needs a serious upgrade. Matthew shares his personal story of growing up in Flint, Michigan, during the lead crisis, how improper mercury filling removal contributed to his addiction struggles, and why he believes heavy metal toxicity is the cause of so many cases of anxiety, depression, and substance abuse. We explore the groundbreaking work of Dr. Hans Nieper (1928-1998), and how his mineral chelates, combined with Dr. Paul Eck's ratios, are creating faster detox results than traditional protocols. He also explains why calcium has been unfairly demonized, the connection between glyphosate, manganese, and Lyme disease, and why you can no longer rely on food alone to get the minerals you need. "Supplementing one individual mineral without any idea of where your HTMA is or any kind of data, it can cause imbalances in other systems." ~ Matthew Coffman In This Episode: - Why taking minerals individually is the wrong approach - Using HTMA to guide calcium and magnesium ratios - How balanced minerals trigger natural detoxification - Why calcium is not the enemy - The real reasons we are so mineral-depleted - Matt's personal health collapse and addiction recovery - The Flint, Michigan lead water crisis - Manganese, glyphosate, and the Lyme connection - Who was Dr. Hans Nieper, and why his work matters - Why Valence supplements are different Products & Resources Mentioned: Valence Nutraceuticals: Practitioners and individuals can explore the full product line and new practitioner mini course at https:/site./valencenutraceuticals.com Puori Grass Fed Whey Protein: Use code WENDY at https://puori.com/wendy for 32% off plus a free shaker on your first subscription order.

After his own health collapsed in 2018 following years of heavy metal exposure, addiction, and a Lyme disease diagnosis, he immersed himself in mineral balancing through hair tissue mineral analysis (HTMA). His company merges the mineral chelate research of German physician Dr. Hans Nieper with the HTMA protocols of Dr. Paul Eck, creating a next-generation supplement line used by practitioners worldwide. Matt grew up in Flint, Michigan, and experienced the lead water crisis firsthand, which deepened his understanding of how environmental toxicity drives chronic illness.

For more information and support, join us at https://thecirsgroup.com Jacie and Barbara discuss how CIRS commonly affects body weight: often causing weight gain and resistance to fat loss, though some people experience extreme weight loss. They'll dig into why weight changes are driven by chronic, multi-system inflammation from biotoxin exposure (such as mold or Lyme), impacting hormones, metabolism, detox pathways, the brain, and the nervous system. It's not simply “calories in, calories out,” and listeners are encouraged to stop blaming themselves. Key contributors to weight gain include elevated cortisol, hormone disruption (leptin resistance, insulin resistance, altered thyroid signaling even with normal labs, and sex hormone imbalance), nervous system stuck in survival mode, why calorie restriction can reinforce danger signals, and how toxin storage in fat tissue can slow fat loss during detox. They emphasize supportive strategies aligned with the Shoemaker protocol: reduce exposure, calm inflammation, use binders and support detox (including daily bowel movements, sleep, gentle movement, sweating, and lymphatic support), prioritize blood sugar stability, eat adequate protein, sleep, and nervous system regulation. They caution that trying harder through calorie restriction, excessive cardio, and weight cycling can worsen stress signals, and raise concerns about GLP-1s. Focus on healing first: weight often shifts as a side effect of recovery.

Is chronic babesiosis finally getting the scientific attention it deserves?In this episode of Integrative Lyme Solutions, Dr. K sits down with Dr. Geoff Dow, CEO & President of Sixty Degrees Pharmaceuticals, to discuss a groundbreaking clinical trial targeting chronic babesiosis — a common and often overlooked Lyme co-infection. Originally developed for malaria prevention, the drug Tafenoquine (brand name Kodatef®) is now being studied for its potential to treat persistent Babesia infections and Lyme-related fatigue.They explore the science behind red blood cell parasites, how Babesia differs from malaria, why chronic babesiosis remains controversial, and what makes this new trial the first FDA-reviewed IND study focused on chronic disease. If you or a loved one struggle with Lyme-related fatigue, relapsing babesiosis, or limited treatment options, this conversation offers cautious optimism and a closer look at the future of targeted therapies.Key Takeaways:0:00 Introduction3:10 From Malaria Drug Development to Lyme Co-Infections6:45 How Babesia Infects Red Blood Cells and Causes Fatigue10:40 Why Chronic Babesiosis Is Still Controversial14:50 No FDA-Approved Drugs Specifically for Babesiosis18:30 New Clinical Trials for Chronic and Relapsing Babesiosis24:00 Measuring Fatigue as a Primary Endpoint in Chronic DiseaseResources Mentioned:Sixty Degrees Pharmaceuticals - https://www.sixtydegreespharma.comKodatef® (Tafenoquine) Information - Available via company website aboveMount Sinai (Clinical Trial Site) - https://www.mountsinai.orgYale Babesiosis Case Series (Referenced Study) - https://medicine.yale.eduMedical Disclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or replace professional medical advice.

In this episode, Dr. Jockers sits down with Taylor Dukes to unpack her powerful journey of discovering a brain tumor with no symptoms and navigating a glioma diagnosis through faith and integrative care. You'll learn how she approached her diagnosis without fear and why slowing down to seek wisdom changed everything. This conversation reveals what it looks like to trust God while taking bold action. You'll discover how immune dysfunction, chronic infections, parasites, and toxic burden can create the perfect storm for cancer development. Taylor explains how her tumor likely grew silently for years and how addressing root causes — from gut health to Lyme to detoxification — became central to her recovery. You'll also gain insight into the role of metabolic therapies and nervous system regulation in healing. You'll learn why removing hidden immune stressors like dental cavitations and breast implants can matter in complex illness. Taylor shares how mindset, identity, and living as if you're healed play a critical role in long-term recovery.

In this episode, Dr. Tony Ebel takes a deep dive into mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS), chronic neuroinflammation, and why so many women and moms are struggling with these conditions. He breaks down why conventional and functional medicine approaches often fall short, reveals the hidden nervous system root cause that nearly everyone is missing, and walks through a three-stage progression — accumulation, dysregulation, and full mast cell activation — that explains how the storm builds over time. Most importantly, Dr. Tony lays out a clear, sequential path to healing that starts with the nervous system and the vagus nerve first, before layering in detoxification and other interventions.----Links & Resources:Sign up for the FREE LIVE March 5th Kick the Sick Webinar: www.thepxdocs.com/kick-the-sickTrusted Clinic for Lyme's healing: https://erlandsonclinic.com/Episode 178: Healing from Food Allergies & Sensitivities [Apple/Spotify]Article: Simple Ways to Support Your Child's Nervous System at HomePWC Intensive Program: https://premierwellnesschiro.com/the-perfect-storm/-----Key Topics & Timestamps03:30 The Exhausting Reality of Living with MCAS08:30 How Functional Medicine Fits In & Why the Nervous System Is the Missing Link11:30 The Hidden Physical Trigger: Neck Tension, the Vagus Nerve & Structural Dysfunction28:00 Dr. Tony's Personal Story with Secondary Lyme's & Neuro-Immune Dysfunction31:30 The Three-Stage Progression: Accumulation, Dysregulation & Full Mast Cell Activation36:30 Why the Right Interventions in the Wrong Order Make Things Worse46:30 The Path Forward: Case History, Insight Scans & Finding the Root Cause55:00 When to Introduce Detox & How to Do It Safely57:00 Closing Encouragement & How to Connect with Dr. Tony-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocs Facebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs Network Youtube: The PX Docs For more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.

In this deep‑dive conversation, Dr. Krista Kostroman and Dr. Richard Horowitz explore what may be one of the most comprehensive frameworks for understanding chronic disease today: Dr. Horowitz's 16‑point MSIDS model (Multiple Systemic Infectious Disease Syndrome).Dr. Richard Horowitz is an internationally recognized physician practicing in Hyde Park, NY. He is an award-winning author of two bestselling books on Lyme disease and chronic illness, and co-author of the 2018 HHS Tick-borne Disease Working Group report to Congress. He has received humanitarian awards from the Turn the Corner Foundation and Project Lyme, has appeared on numerous local and national media outlets—including the Today show and Fox News, for his work on Lyme disease and COVID-19—and is now providing novel solutions for our climate emergency.Across 40+ years and 13,000+ chronically ill patients, Dr. Horowitz has repeatedly seen that chronic illness is never caused by just one thing. Instead, it's the collision of infections, toxins, gut disruption, hormonal imbalance, immune dysregulation, and more. Together, they break down:Why the “one cause, one cure” medical model no longer fits modern chronic diseaseHow inflammation is the central biological event behind most conditionsWhy the same 16 factors appear across Lyme disease, long‑COVID, Alzheimer's, autoimmune disease, mood disorders, metabolic disorders, and beyondThe role of genes and epigenetics in both illness and healingWhy younger and younger people now present with high inflammation markersHow we can meaningfully reverse disease trajectories — including cognitive declineWhat a future “Chronic Disease Center of Excellence” could look likeAnd why patient advocacy is reshaping the medical system more than ever beforeIf you wish to learn more from Dr. Richard Horowitz, check out the following links:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/drrichardhorowitz/Book Website: https://cangetbetter.com/ending-chronic-illness/Contact him at medical@hvhac.com______________________________________________________Keep yourself up to date on The DNA Talks Podcast!

In this episode, Dr. Greg Jones welcomes back Kim Look to explore the cutting-edge landscape of EBOO (Extracorporeal Blood Oxygenation and Ozonation). While many are familiar with traditional ozone therapy, EBOO represents a significant evolution, enabling the treatment of much larger volumes of blood through a sophisticated filtration and gas exchange system.Kim breaks down the "same but different" mechanics of EBOO compared to standard Major Autohemotherapy (MAH), explaining how the therapy acts as a "bio-detox" rather than just a mechanical filter. They discuss the controversial "waste cup" often seen on social media, the crucial role of Ultraviolet Blood Irradiation (UBI), and why EBOO is becoming a powerful tool for navigating long-haul symptoms, Lyme disease, and general longevity. Finally, Kim shares essential safety protocols, including the specific nutritional prep required to prevent blood sugar crashes during treatment.Whether you're a patient looking to improve skin health at a cellular level or a provider interested in the evolving field of regenerative aesthetics, this episode offers a science-backed, practical framework for understanding what truly drives skin regeneration and longevity.

What makes Lyme disease resolve quickly in some people but turn into a life-altering chronic illness in others? In this episode, world-leading immunologist Dr. Michal “Mikki” Tal, Principal Scientist at MIT, explains what her team is discovering through the MAESTRO Study — the largest clinical research project in MIT's history and the first of its kind to include real Lyme patients in a multi-system biological analysis. Dr. Tal's work sits at the intersection of immunology, bioengineering, and women's health, uncovering how infections like Lyme and COVID can cause persistent inflammation, immune miscommunication, and hormonal imbalance. Through MAESTRO, she's mapping how recovery breaks down — and what can be done to predict, prevent, and ultimately reverse chronic illness.
Send a textFarmers and ranchers carry more than livestock and land. They carry stress, legacy, responsibility, and often silent health struggles.In this powerful episode of the Profitable Steward Podcast, Jared Sorensen sits down with health coach Mike Edgcomb Jr., joined by Selena Sorensen, to talk about:• Mold toxicity in agriculture • Chronic inflammation and brain health • Insulin resistance and metabolic dysfunction • Lyme disease and immune stress • Fasting and metabolic flexibility • Burnout, cortisol, and emotional resilience • Why holistic health matters for leadership and stewardshipMany producers struggle with fatigue, brain fog, anxiety, depression, digestive issues, and weight gain, but are told their labs are “normal.”This conversation explores the difference between sick care and true health care, and how addressing root causes can dramatically improve quality of life, clarity, and long-term sustainability.Because your ranch isn't sustainable if you're not.If you've tried everything and still don't feel like yourself… there is hope.Sign up for a consultation.https://www.amandajoylife.com/offers/o6QpLSDS/checkoutUse the code PODCAST
Dr. Nancy O'Hara, pediatrician and leading expert in PANS and PANDAS, joins me to unpack why some children experience sudden, dramatic changes in behavior, anxiety, OCD, tics, sleep, or emotional regulation following illness. For many families, these symptoms appear almost overnight and are often misdiagnosed as "just anxiety," behavioral issues, or psychiatric disorders, leaving parents confused, dismissed, and unsure how to help their child. Together we explore: - What PANS and PANDAS are, and how infections like strep, viruses, or tick-borne illness can trigger sudden neuropsychiatric symptoms in children. - What to assess to help you determine if your child has a generalized anxiety disorder or if it may be PANS/PANDAS that is the root cause of their symptoms. - Why PANS/PANDAS is often missed or misunderstood in both medical and mental health settings. - The three-pronged approach to treatment: Addressing the trigger, the immune system, and the child's emotional and behavioral symptoms. - How therapy, both for parents and children, can support recovery, even when symptoms have a medical origin. - Understanding that there is real hope for healing and that it's never too late to identify and address PANS or PANDAS. This episode is designed to help parents and clinicians feel more informed, less alone, and more confident in recognizing when a child's behavior may be signaling something deeper. PANS and PANDAS are real, treatable conditions that deserve compassionate, comprehensive care. LEARN MORE ABOUT MY GUEST:
Why do so many of our prayers seem to go unanswered? John Mark tackles one of the most difficult tensions in the Christian life: how to square Jesus's bold promise of "ask anything in my name and I will do it" with the reality of unanswered prayer. He explores fifteen reasons our prayers might not be answered the way we expect and closes by introducing the ancient practice of lament as a way to meet God honestly in our pain.Key Scripture Passages: John 14v12-14; John 15v7, 16; John 16v23-24; Psalm 13; Psalm 66v18; Isaiah 58This podcast and its episodes are paid for by The Circle, our community of monthly givers.

In this episode of The Art of Being Well, Dr. Will Cole sits down with Kim Rogers to explore overlooked root causes behind chronic gut issues, inflammation, and immune dysregulation. Kim shares her personal journey through years of unexplained symptoms, including mold exposure, Lyme disease, and persistent gut dysfunction. They discuss why parasites are far more common than most people realize and how they can impact digestion, mental health, and overall resilience. This conversation unpacks why many symptoms are dismissed as “normal” and what they may actually be signaling.
