Dr Austin Perlmutter, neurobiology, mood and decision-making expert, joins our ambassador Dr Adrian Lopresti as they explore the biological basis of “stuckness” in the mind and how the brain is influenced by inflammatory/immune triggers which results is certain behaviours and health outcomes. Together they discuss the relationship between sickness behaviour, neuroinflammation and their effect on the brain leading to our inherent tendency to return to “default”. Nature vs nurture is discussed where exposures from foetal development, childhood trauma and genetic influences can impact our mental and cognitive flexibility much later in life. Austin explains “disconnection syndrome” a modern conundrum where our brains tend to latch onto impulsive behaviours leading to cognitive decline. It's not all doom and gloom as Austin and Adrian bring practical solutions to the table in the form of simple lifestyle adjustments that promotes behavioural change and reduce neuroinflammation.

Send us a textEpisode Summary: Dr. Michael Wheeler talks about neuroimmune interactions, exploring how the immune system and brain communicate, particularly through the blood-brain barrier and meninges; how chronic stress and inflammation can alter brain circuits, contributing to mood disorders like depression; how drugs like psilocybin and MDMA may reduce inflammation by modulating immune cells in the meninges, offering potential therapeutic benefits.About the guest: Michael Wheeler, PhD is an Assistant Professor of Neurology at Harvard Medical School. His lab studies how immune responses influence behavior, mood disorders, and addiction.Key Conversation Points:The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is not as impermeable as once thought, allowing immune signals like cytokines to influence brain function even in healthy states.Chronic stress can weaken the BBB, increasing inflammation and affecting mood-regulating circuits, potentially contributing to depression.Microglia, the brain's resident immune cells, help maintain neural circuits by pruning synapses and regulating metabolism.Psychedelics like psilocybin and MDMA can reduce inflammation by prompting immune cells (monocytes) to leave the meninges, potentially via vascular effects.These psychedelics may act in a context-specific “window,” requiring a dysregulated tissue state to exert anti-inflammatory effects, not as broad-spectrum anti-inflammatories.Neuroinflammation may underlie some treatment-resistant depression cases, suggesting immunotherapy could complement traditional psychiatric treatments.The brain encodes peripheral immune signals, like gut inflammation, in specific circuits, which can “remember” and recreate inflammatory responses.Aging may naturally increase blood-brain barrier leakiness, heightening the brain's susceptibility to peripheral inflammation.Future research aims to explore how psychedelics influence plasticity and their potential in treating inflammation-related diseases beyond psychiatry.Related episode:M&M 2: Psilocybin, LSD, Ketamine, Inflammation & Novel Support the showAll episodes, show notes, transcripts, and more at the M&M Substack Affiliates: KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + potassium, calcium & magnesium, formulated with kidney health in mind.

Overcoming Lyme Disease Insomnia: Herbal Solutions for Better Sleep

Functional Medicine Research with Dr. Nikolas Hedberg

For clinicians in functional medicine, these cases are all too familiar. While antibiotics, herbal medicines, biofilm disruptors, and immune support are key in managing Lyme disease, restoring quality sleep is just as essential. Without sleep, healing stalls. It is during deep sleep that glymphatic clearance occurs, immune cells regenerate, and the nervous system resets. Herbal solutions can help patients with Lyme-related insomnia achieve deep, restorative sleep. This article explores how Lyme disrupts sleep physiology and how Moss Nutrition's new Sleep Select Herbal—a blend of saffron, valerian, American skullcap, passionflower, and Ziziphus spinosa—can help restore calm and rest. These botanicals are supported by clinical trials and tailored to address the unique neuroimmune dysregulation seen in Lyme disease. The Limits of Conventional Sleep Aids Many Lyme patients are prescribed benzodiazepines, sedative antihistamines, or off-label antidepressants for insomnia. While these may offer temporary relief, they rarely address root causes. Over time, they can disrupt sleep architecture, desensitize GABA receptors, and create dependency or withdrawal problems. By contrast, botanical nervines and adaptogens support endogenous pathways—enhancing GABA, modulating cortisol, and recalibrating circadian rhythm—without suppressing natural neurotransmission. This is the core strategy behind Sleep Select Herbal. How Lyme Disease Disrupts Sleep and Creates Nervous Tension 1. Neuroinflammation and Cytokine Overload Borrelia and its coinfections invade the central nervous system, triggering microglial activation and the release of inflammatory cytokines like IL-6, TNF-alpha, and IL-1β. These cytokines interfere with the function of sleep-promoting areas in the brain, such as the hypothalamus and suprachiasmatic nucleus. Impact: Reduced sleep drive, disrupted circadian signaling, and altered neurotransmitter synthesis. 2. Cortisol Dysregulation and HPA Axis Dysfunction Patients with chronic Lyme disease often exhibit abnormal cortisol rhythms—typically low in the morning and elevated at night. This flipped curve perpetuates insomnia, often manifesting as nighttime awakenings or difficulty falling asleep. Impact: Low melatonin, nighttime anxiety, impaired parasympathetic tone, and reduced vagal tone. 3. GABA and Serotonin Imbalance Lyme disease inflammation can disrupt the synthesis and receptor sensitivity of GABA and serotonin—the primary calming neurotransmitters. This leads to hyperarousal, panic, and light, unrefreshing sleep. Impact: Reduced GABAergic tone increases muscle tension, rumination, and sympathetic dominance. Five Botanicals to Restore Sleep in Lyme Disease Each herb in Sleep Select Herbal addresses a distinct but overlapping mechanism contributing to insomnia and nervous tension. Clinically formulated Sleep Select Herbal supports deep, restorative sleep for patients with Lyme-related insomnia and nervous tension. 1. Saffron (Crocus sativus) – The Circadian Calibrator In a 2021 double-blind, placebo-controlled study of 120 adults with poor sleep, saffron (affron®) at 14–28 mg improved sleep quality, reduced insomnia severity, and increased evening melatonin levels without next-day sedation (Lopresti et al., 2021). Mechanisms: Increases nighttime melatonin Reduces evening cortisol Improves sleep onset and continuity Patient Profile: Individuals with delayed sleep phase, high evening cortisol, or mood disturbances upon waking. 2. Valerian (Valeriana officinalis) – The GABAergic Grounder Valerian root enhances GABA signaling by inhibiting its breakdown and modulating GABA-A receptors. A clinical trial showed valerian significantly improved total sleep time, reduced latency, and enhanced sleep efficiency (Shekhar et al., 2024). Mechanisms: Binds GABA-A receptors without habituation Reduces anxiety and muscle tension

En este episodio, profundizamos en uno de los fenómenos más devastadores pero menos comprendidos en neurorrehabilitación: la denervación muscular tras una lesión medular. A través de una revisión exhaustiva de la literatura científica y de la experiencia clínica, abordamos qué ocurre realmente con los músculos que han perdido su inervación, cómo se transforman con el tiempo y qué posibilidades tenemos para intervenir. Hablamos sobre neurofisiología, degeneración axonal, fases de la denervación, y cómo la estimulación eléctrica —especialmente con pulsos largos— puede modificar el curso degenerativo incluso años después de la lesión. Exploramos también el Proyecto RISE, los protocolos clínicos actuales y las implicaciones terapéuticas reales de aplicar electroestimulación en músculos completamente denervados.

Tiziana Life Sciences CEO Ivor Elrifi joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share news the company has announced promising PET scan results from a patient with moderate Alzheimer's disease treated for three months with intranasal foralumab under an expanded access program. The scan revealed a significant reduction in microglial activation, a key marker of neuroinflammation linked to Alzheimer's progression. This outcome represents a major milestone for the company's intranasal foralumab program. With no approved therapies for moderate Alzheimer's disease, Tiziana sees foralumab—a fully human anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody—as a potential treatment option, both as a monotherapy and in combination with amyloid-targeting therapies. Foralumab has shown the ability to induce regulatory T cells (Tregs) that migrate to the brain and suppress neuroinflammation. These effects have been validated in preclinical models and in patients with secondary progressive multiple sclerosis, supporting further clinical development in neurodegenerative conditions. The company is set to begin a Phase 2 randomized, placebo-controlled trial in June 2025 involving mild Alzheimer's patients. Data from this trial are expected by the end of 2025. The aim is to determine if reducing neuroinflammation translates into improved quality of life. #proactiveinvestors #tizianalifescienceslts #nasdaq #tlsa #newceo #ivorelrifi #Foralumab #AlzheimersResearch #Neuroinflammation #BiotechNews #PETscan #ClinicalTrials #AlzheimersTreatment #PharmaUpdates #HealthcareInnovation

Story at-a-glance Gut bacteria called Morganella morganii produce unusual fats that contain diethanolamine (DEA), an environmental micropollutant; the fats trigger inflammation that contribute to major depressive disorder The gut-brain axis operates bidirectionally — gut dysbiosis causes systemic inflammation that affects your brain while brain inflammation disrupts gut health Disruptions in gut bacteria lead to increased intestinal permeability, or "leaky gut," which allows harmful substances to enter your bloodstream and trigger systemic inflammation Neuroinflammation shifts tryptophan metabolism toward the kynurenine pathway, which produces substances that contribute to glutamate excitotoxicity, in turn damaging brain cells and contributing to depression Restoring gut health requires a comprehensive approach, including eliminating seed oils, avoiding endocrine disruptors, optimizing carbohydrate intake and carefully introducing beneficial bacteria like Akkermansia muciniphila

The Endocannabinoid System plays a crucial role in regulating cardiovascular, neurological, and immune functions through CB1 and CB2 receptors. • CB1 Activation: Associated with oxidative stress, inflammation, and increased cardiovascular risks such as myocardial infarction (MI), arrhythmias, and heart failure. • CB2 Activation: Primarily found in immune cells and linked to anti-inflammatory and protective cardiovascular effects. • Cannabis Use: High THC content or synthetic cannabinoids (e.g., Spice, K2) significantly increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases and psychiatric disorders. • Cannabis Use Disorder (CUD): Characterized by compulsive use despite adverse consequences, often co-occurring with depression, PTSD, and anxiety. • Potential Therapeutic Targets: CB1 antagonists (e.g., Genistein) and CB2 agonists are being explored for their ability to reduce inflammation and vascular damage while minimizing psychiatric side effects.   Future research is needed to clarify long-term cardiovascular effects, optimize cannabinoid therapies, and inform public health policies.
