In this episode, Sean joins Peter for a wide-ranging discussion on the multifaceted nature of pain—as both a sensory and emotional experience—and its evolutionary purpose as a critical survival mechanism. He dives into how pain is transmitted through the nervous system, the different types of pain, and why different individuals perceive pain so differently. Sean shares insights into pain management strategies ranging from medications like NSAIDs and opioids to neuromodulation techniques such as transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS). Additionally, this episode explores the interplay between sleep and chronic pain and the psychological and emotional dimensions of pain, and it includes a personal story from Peter about his own experience with pain and how Sean's expertise helped him more than two decades ago. We discuss: The definition of pain, and how our understanding of pain has evolved from a simplistic body-mind separation to a nuanced biopsychosocial model [2:30]; The biological mechanisms behind how we perceive pain [9:30]; The role of consciousness in the perception of pain, and how nociception functions during unconscious states [14:30]; The four types of pain [22:00]; Using fMRI to identify objective biomarkers of pain in the brain [31:30]; The evolutionary role of pain in human behavior and survival [36:00]; How the brain processes and modulates pain signals, Gate Control Theory, the variability in individuals' pain perception, and effectiveness of neuromodulation techniques like TENS [41:00]; The brain's influence on pain: the role of emotion, beliefs, sleep, and individual differences in perception and tolerance [53:45]; Peter's personal journey with chronic back pain, and how the emotional consequences of pain can be more distressing than the pain itself [1:04:30]; The pharmacology of common pain medications—NSAIDs, COX-2 inhibitors, and acetaminophen [1:09:30]; Muscle relaxants: benefits, drawbacks, and personalized strategies [1:20:30]; The definition of chronic pain [1:29:15]; The role of antidepressants in pain management [1:30:15]; Opioids: their controversial and nuanced role in pain management [1:33:45]; Alternative therapies: acupuncture and cannabis [1:54:15]; Fibromyalgia and chronic pain: clinical features, brain mechanisms, and emerging treatments like low-dose naltrexone [2:01:00]; Possible brain benefits of low-dose naltrexone (LDN) for people with mild cognitive impairment [2:15:00]; Peter's recovery from severe chronic pain—how he went from immobility and high-dose opioids to full functionality [2:20:15]; Breaking the pain cycle: how physical rehabilitation and psychological recovery work together in chronic pain treatment [2:30:45]; Sean's struggle with cluster headaches, and the value of knowledge, preparation, and empathy in both managing chronic pain and caring for patients [2:39:15]; and More.

Imagine your gut as a security gate, carefully controlling what enters your bloodstream. Now, picture that gate with broken locks—allowing harmful toxins, undigested food particles, and bacteria to slip through. That's leaky gut, and it could be the hidden reason behind your bloating, brain fog, autoimmune issues, skin problems, and chronic fatigue. Your gut lining is supposed to act as a protective barrier, but when it gets damaged, it no longer filters properly. This can trigger widespread inflammation, worsen allergies and asthma, contribute to autoimmune conditions like Hashimoto's and psoriasis, and throw your hormones out of balance, leading to issues like PCOS. Even your mood and mental health are deeply connected to what's happening in your gut. On this episode of Medical Disruptor, we're breaking down the truth about leaky gut—what it is, why it's causing more than just digestive issues, and how stress, antibiotics, NSAIDs like Advil and Motrin, sugar, alcohol, and processed foods could be fueling the damage. We'll also explore how gut health directly impacts your skin, hormones, and brain function, plus the foods silently making it worse—and what to eat instead. If you've been struggling with unexplained symptoms and haven't found the answers, this episode could be the breakthrough you need. Tune in and learn how to take control of your gut health once and for all.

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, I discuss how to build muscle strength and size (hypertrophy) and cover key training principles to enhance athletic performance and offset age-related muscle decline. I explain how the nervous system drives muscle movement, the key differences between training for hypertrophy or strength, and resistance training protocols to build muscle for performance and healthy aging. Additionally, I discuss tools for assessing recovery and the role of key nutrients—such as creatine and electrolytes—in supporting muscle development and performance. This episode provides actionable, science-backed strategies to enhance movement, preserve strength with age, and boost energy levels. Read the episode show notes at hubermanlab.com.

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 3-27-2025: Dr. Dawn comments on how inappropriate conclusions of cause and effect lead to too many drugs being prescribed and incorrect claims of drug allergies. Dr. Dawn examines the risks of ibuprofen overuse, discussing how NSAIDs can damage the gut lining, affect kidney function, and lead to various health complications when used long-term. She provides insight into Medicare reimbursement rates for common lab tests, explaining the significant price disparities between Medicare payments and commercial rates. The show explores the current H5N1 bird flu situation affecting egg and dairy production, discussing viral mutations and the promising development of a universal flu vaccine. Dr. Dawn explores the remarkable fact that among placental mammals, only humans, certain bats, elephant shrews, and one species of spiny mouse experience menstruation, leading to challenges in research models. She recounts the fascinating history of menstruation research, from 1940s scientists chasing elephant shrews in South Africa to shipping bats in takeout containers for laboratory studies. The show details modern breakthroughs in menstruation research through organoids and organs-on-chips technology, explaining how these tools are revolutionizing our understanding of women's health. Dr. Dawn addresses perimenopause and hormone replacement therapy, discussing historical misconceptions and current treatment perspectives. The show concludes with research on artemisia, explaining how this traditional herb shows promise in treating polycystic ovary syndrome through its effects on hormone regulation.

Lower back pain is something most of us have experienced at some point. Whether it's from sitting too long, lifting something heavy, or just the wear and tear of daily life, it's a common issue. But with so many treatments available, which ones actually work? A team of researchers set out to answer this question in a massive study published in BMJ Evidence-Based Medicine. Gathering data from hundreds of previous studies, the researchers analysed 301 randomized controlled trials, covering 56 different treatments for low back pain. These treatments ranged from exercise and spinal manipulations to medications like NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) and antidepressants. To make the study even more precise, they divided the results into two categories: Acute low back pain (pain lasting less than 12 weeks). Chronic low back pain (pain lasting 12 weeks or more). Then, they compared each treatment to a placebo to see if it actually provided pain relief. The good news is that some non-surgical treatments do work, though not as dramatically as you might hope. For acute low back pain, NSAIDs (like ibuprofen) were the only treatment found to be effective, with a small but measurable pain reduction. For chronic low back pain, five treatments stood out: Exercise: Physical movement tailored to strengthen the back and improve flexibility. Spinal manipulative therapy: Techniques often used by chiropractors to adjust the spine. Taping: Using supportive tape to stabilize muscles and joints. Antidepressants: Certain medications that seem to reduce pain perception. TRPV1 agonists: A class of treatments that target pain receptors. Each of these treatments provided modest pain relief, meaning they worked better than a placebo, but not by much. What Doesn't Work? Some common treatments, surprisingly, did not provide significant pain relief. For acute low back pain, these treatments were found not to be effective: Exercise (which works better for chronic pain but not short-term pain). Glucocorticoid injections (steroid shots that are sometimes used for inflammation). Paracetamol (acetaminophen) (commonly recommended but found to be ineffective in this study). For chronic low back pain, these treatments failed to provide significant benefits: Antibiotics (sometimes prescribed for infections that might cause pain, but no clear benefit). Anaesthetics (numbing agents that didn't prove effective for long-term relief). Many treatments had inconclusive results, meaning there wasn't enough strong evidence to say whether they truly help. These included: Acupuncture Massage Heat therapy Laser therapy Electromagnetic therapy This doesn't necessarily mean they don't work, just that more high-quality research is needed. So, if you have low back pain and are looking for non-surgical options, the research suggests: If your pain is short-term, NSAIDs may help. If your pain is chronic, consider exercise, spinal manipulative therapy, taping, antidepressants, or TRPV1 agonists. Some treatments commonly recommended (like paracetamol and steroids) might not be as effective as previously thought. Many alternative treatments show promise but need better studies to confirm their benefits. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ryan introduces co-host Holly Knotowicz.   [1:14] Holly introduces today's topic, immunology support for eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE), and introduces today's guest, Dr. John Accarino, an allergist and immunologist at Massachusetts General Hospital. Holly welcomes Dr. Accarino to Real Talk.   [1:49] Holly notes that Dr. Accarino is her allergist and immunologist.   [2:03] Dr. Accarino works at Massachusetts General Hospital and Mass General for Children. Allergy and Immunology is a field where he can see pediatrics and adults. Originally trained in pediatrics, now Dr. Accarino sees patients of all ages.   [2:23] Dr. Accarino grew up with allergies. He has experienced food allergies since he was young, along with allergic asthma, and some eczema, which he grew out of. Later in life, he was diagnosed with eosinophilic esophagitis. He talks with his patients about his experiences.   [2:47] Dr. Accarino also does research on drug allergies in the context of certain drug interactions that involve eosinophils.    [3:06] When Holly was referred to Dr. Accarino, it was for multiple sclerosis (MS). He told her, “It looks like you have EoE. I have EoE.” It was a huge relief to Holly not to have to explain EoE to her doctor.   [3:41] Some patients start to explain their EoE to Dr. Accarino, and he assures them he understands where they're coming from. Sometimes, he has to be careful not to think everyone has his symptoms, as there is a large spectrum of presentations.   [4:26] Dr. Accarino wasn't diagnosed with EoE until he was in his allergy fellowship, after he suspected it when he had a food impaction at a steakhouse at a graduation party from his pediatric residency. He tried to manage the EoE with lifestyle changes.   [5:39] Dr. Accarino didn't often go to see a doctor during residency, but he realized it was probably a good time to get an endoscopy.   [5:52] Holly shares how she was also diagnosed as a clinical fellow. She was subbing for someone on the GEDP team at Children's Hospital in Colorado. Listening to all the patients, she realized, “This sounds a little bit like me … What is going on?”   [6:23] Even with his medical background, it took Dr. Accarino some time to decide to get the endoscopy and biopsies. You or your doctor have to have a high level of suspicion to realize this isn't just reflux. Food doesn't get stuck in every person's throat.   [7:01] Thinking back, Dr. Accarino remembers an instance as a child when a dry muffin got stuck in his throat. He stayed calm and waited for it to pass. He thought it was normal.   [7:39] He drank a lot of water and chewed his food a lot. Those are markers of potential esophageal inflammation.   [8:20] Different groups have different management strategies for EoE. Dietary management, topical steroids, biologics. A subgroup of people with EoE are responsive to proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). Finding the best management strategy is a work in progress.   [8:53] With pediatric patients, the parents control the diet, and the children eat what is prepared. He notes that with adult patients, sometimes they let foods slip through.   [9:10] If you want to do a single-food elimination diet with dairy, there's a lot of dairy in the American diet. Dr. Accarino tried eliminating dairy and wheat, but he still had persistent eosinophils with dietary elimination.   [9:24] Dr. Accarino then tried PPIs. To know if you have PPI-responsive EoE, you might do twice-daily omeprazole at a significant dose. Have the endoscopy after a few weeks pass and see if the eosinophils are still present in the biopsy.   [9:59] Dr. Accarino did that recently and still has the eosinophils. He plans to talk to his gastroenterologist about considering dupilumab, but he feels that he can mitigate his subjective day-to-day experience of symptoms with dietary elimination and PPIs.    [10:24] If you still have the presence of eosinophils on biopsy, there's still inflammation happening. In the long term, you still have to worry about fibrosis and narrowing.    [10:34] The last treatment Dr. Accarino tried was as a research participant in a study for dissolvable fluticasone. He received either the medication or a placebo; he doesn't know which.   [11:01] To stay in the study, he had to journal and report his symptoms regularly. He didn't have enough symptoms to stay in the study. They were looking for a baseline to see how it changed with either the placebo or the medication.   [11:20] In research, you have to have a baseline to start, and then you want to see improvement, plus or minus. With EoE, it's difficult. You have the biopsy and eosinophils, but there's a large spectrum of symptoms that people may experience.   [12:40] Holly appreciates Dr. Accarino's unique perspective as a doctor with EoE who has experienced various treatments and diets. He understands the concerns of his patients.   [12:43] Dr. Accarino says even taking a twice-daily PPI or other medication is difficult for a lot of people, and that's the most simple of these therapies.   [13:06] Dr. Accarino wants to validate everyone's experience in terms of how difficult it is to treat this disorder, how it may present in different ways, and how there may be a delay in diagnosis.   [13:16] This isn't IgE-mediated immediate food allergy, where you eat a food and may have swelling within minutes; you may have flushing or hives. That's very clear. With EoE, it's a different mechanism; in many cases, there is a delay.   [14:37] Allergy, in general, is under the purview of clinical immunology. Dr. Accarino is allergic to peanuts and has an  IgE-mediated immediate reaction to them. If he eats a peanut, he has symptoms within minutes. He could have anaphylaxis. As a result, he carries an epinephrine auto-injector.   [15:01] If Dr. Accarino has a skin test, it will be positive for peanut. He has IgE antibodies to peanuts. He also has oral allergy syndrome where the body mistakes certain fruits, vegetables, or nuts with certain tree pollens or grass pollens.   [15:23] Oral allergy syndrome is usually a lower-risk condition where it's a less-stable protein that once cooked might not produce any symptoms. If it's raw when you consume it, you may have oral itching, a bit of throat discomfort, or tongue itching. [15:54] Your stomach acid breaks it down so it doesn't get into your bloodstream and you shouldn't have a systemic reaction.   [16:01] If Dr. Accarino eats a peanut, his stomach acid doesn't break down the high-risk, stable peanut protein, it gets into his bloodstream, and he can have a systemic anaphylactic reaction.   [16:20] Chronic EoE symptoms can present with something like a food impaction, or bad reflux or belly pain, and nausea. The reaction may not be immediate. It may be progressive over days or weeks.   [16:38] FIRE is an interesting condition that takes some time to narrow down. It's an immediate response of the esophagus, but we don't think it's histamine-mediated.   [16:56] We don't know, exactly, the mechanism but it's in people with eosinophilic esophagitis. They feel differently, and there would be different specific food triggers.   [17:11]  It took some time to figure out what was going on. Dr. Accarino felt like he had a lump in his throat, then a lump in his chest, nausea, and belly pain. It felt like a slow progression of EoE symptoms, and it was from specific food triggers, in his case.   [17:30] In some of the FIRE literature, they looked at banana and avocado. For Dr. Accarino, it took a couple of exposures to protein bars and milk protein whey isolate, specific to protein bars he had multiple times, until he figured out that was the trigger.   [17:50] Another protein whey isolate that Dr. Accarino scooped as a powder and made into a shake also led to FIRE.   [17:55] It took that event for Dr. Accarino to figure out it wasn't just a flareup of EoE or reflux but some trigger that caused this response that wasn't anaphylaxis but may be due to the recruitment of eosinophils or some immediate process not well understood.   [18:18] FIRE is going to be very hard to research. How would we figure this out? Would we bring someone in and do an endoscopy immediately and see what happens? There's a lot of descriptive data and case series.   [18:32] Dr. Accarino has had experiences when he knew it wasn't an immediate anaphylactic reaction, oral allergy, or reflux. He asked what else it could be in the context of EoE. When he looked at different case series, that's the presentation he had.   [19:17] Dr. Accarino acknowledges that having personal experience with FIRE, oral allergies, and IgE-mediated allergies, on top of EoE, has influenced his work as a medical professional. He can share anecdotes with patients as he explains the available testing.   [19:39] Dr. Accarino says a lot of immunology and allergy is explaining the diagnostic tools and management strategies we have and what we think is going on.   [19:50] The immune system is infinitely complex, and a lot of the practice is making a digestible analogy, not just in the context of allergic conditions but also everything with the immune system. There are so many cells doing so many different things.   [20:04] Dr. Accarino explains false positives in testing. He has positive scratch tests for peanuts, cashews, and almonds, which shows he has IgE for each of them. He is allergic to peanuts, but he can eat cashews and almonds. Those are false positives.    [20:56] When a scratch test is negative for immediate food allergy, it's a powerful predictive tool. But you may get false positives. How positive is it? There might be room for more discussion.   [21:10] There may be more hesitation for people who do large panels of food testing without any history of reacting to any foods.   [21:31] Some people have EoE triggered by milk or wheat but have negative skin tests. That doesn't mean they aren't triggered by these foods. The skin test is an IgE histamine mast cell mechanism, not for eosinophils, which are other immune cells.   [21:58] We go down these steps of thinking about diagnostic triggers and eventually treatment for those immediate symptoms mentioned for EoE.   [22:09] Dr. Accarino doesn't expect FIRE to be responsive to epinephrine. He doesn't have to stabilize the mast cells. It's a chronic disease that's flaring up. You treat it with a chronic type of treatment.   [24:10] Dr. Accarino says that for a doctor, immunology is rewarding, interesting, and complex, but it's intimidating until you get your foothold and see patients and clinical experiences.   [25:14] A lot of medical students and residents are a little fearful of immunology. They might not think about it too much. Dr. Accarino loves to talk about it and think about it. He can't think of anything more complex in terms of systems within our body.   [25:37] Ryan comments on his experiences with IgE-mediated food allergies, some environmental allergies that he has no idea how they work, and EoE, which he believes he has a good grasp on.   [25:55] Ryan imagines that having a physician with a good understanding of the immune system and also personal experience would be helpful for a patient with multiple allergic conditions.   [26:13] Dr. Accarino sees a large overlap of seasonal or year-round environmental allergies and EoE. There are some studies that show that endoscopies on patients with EoE may change at different times of the year if they have underlying seasonal allergies.   [26:33] Some people who have food allergies also have EoE or other eosinophilic disorders. Some discussions with them may be about blood tests that detect eosinophils in the bloodstream versus biopsies of the esophagus, stomach, or colon.   [27:15] It's thinking about what tests are available, what they tell us, and how to use them to predict the next steps, things like dietary changes or for immediate food allergy, considering challenges versus full avoidance. Each test has its pluses and minuses.   [27:35] People like a clear test, and they like an easy fix, but sometimes there's a lot of nuanced conversation of shared decision-making and trying things in a supervised setting.   [27:57] Holly speaks as a patient of the investigative testing Dr. Acarino is doing with her immune system trying to figure it out along with her MS and EoE.   [28:14] Dr. Accarino says the words immune system, immunity, and inflammation are used a lot in talking about foods. Dr. Accarino uses the framework of the immune system trying to help you.   [28:42] Sometimes, instead of making helpful antibodies to things like vaccines or viruses, that give you protection, the immune system makes antibodies that attack a certain organ or your joints.   [29:02] Dr. Accarino thinks of treatments that suppress the immune system in certain ways. Some treatments cool down the populations of many different immune cells. Oral steroids and prednisone are used for many conditions for autoimmune flares.    [29:29] Oral steroids, in the long term, may lead to weight gain, bone density changes, and diabetes. The big push for many diseases is toward non-steroidal biologics to target specific cells that cause disease.   [29:59] For Crohn's disease, a specific monoclonal antibody is used to target TNF-alpha molecules and blocks that inflammation pathway.   [30:14] For EoE, dupilumab, a specifically designed antibody, blocks a specific receptor in a specific pathway so the immune system doesn't have to be shut down and the patient doesn't have the side effects of steroids. It's a targeted therapy.   [30:32] What you see in commercials for injectable medications are large, designed antibodies that, if you took them in a pill form, your stomach acid would break down and digest. So they are injections and infusions that go directly into the bloodstream.   [31:22] Medications that end in -mab are monoclonal antibodies. They are very large molecules that would not be stable in stomach acid.   [32:09] Dr. Accarino talks of eosinophil normal function and aberrant function. IgE-mediated reactions are usually related to mast cells, a type of immune cell that shouldn't be in the bloodstream.   [32:54] Dr. Accarino can do a CBC with differential to see the number of white blood cells and the number of red blood cells. The differential of white blood cells will include neutrophils, lymphocytes, and eosinophils. It shouldn't show mast cells.   [33:19] If you have mast cells in your bloodstream, that's mastocytosis, a different problem. Mast cells live in your skin, in your gut, and around your blood vessels. They're full of granules like histamine and tryptase.   [33:38] Dr. Accarino explains how mast cells release their contents and how he would treat the resulting swelling or itch with an antihistamine or epinephrine. Epinephrine treats systemic reactions and stabilizes the mast cells.   [34:16] Mast cells have many receptors and may be triggered by many things other than IgE. This is a conversation Dr. Accarino has with patients who have chronic hives unrelated to any foods.   [34:29] Some people get hives from non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs NSAIDs. Some get hives from vancomycin. Some get hives when the temperature changes, from tight clothing, or from IV contrast. It's not an IgE-mediated mechanism, but it's still mast cells being degranulated.   [35:45] Dr. Accarino says people see hives and they think allergy. But, like EoE, it doesn't involve histamine. There can be hives that aren't related to allergies. This can be idiopathic urticaria or spontaneous urticaria.   [36:04] Sometimes, when switching from a day shift to a night shift, hormonal changes will trigger hives. Sometimes, the stress of having a family member in the hospital will cause hives. An accumulation of triggers can lead to mast cell degranulation.   [36:38] There are many ways that allergy can have different mechanisms and treatments, with different cells involved. There are different molecules that cause symptoms and manifestations.   [36:50] Navigating that and understanding what might be going on can give people a sense of reassurance. The biggest fear is a life-threatening allergic reaction. People will read about fatal anaphylaxis and wonder if it will happen to them with their condition.   [37:16] Sometimes, thinking of the cells involved and the pathways may give a level of reassurance that this may not be the same thing that they read about.   [37:28] Ryan thanks Dr. Accarino for joining us today.   [37:37] Dr. Accarino says it was nice to reflect on things and to go through different scenarios and experiences he has gone through. It was nice to have the opportunity to share them with Ryan, Holly, and all the listeners.   [37:57] For our listeners who would like to learn more about eosinophilic disorders, including EoE, please visit APFED.org and check out the links in the show notes.   [38:06] If you're looking to find a specialist who treats eosinophilic disorders, we encourage you to use APFED's Specialist Finder at APFED.org/specialist.   [38:15] If you'd like to connect with others impacted by eosinophilic diseases, please join APFED's online community on the Inspire Network at APFED.org/connections.   [38:25] Ryan thanks Dr. Accarino for joining us today for this fun conversation.

I was originally trained in pediatrics, but now I see all ages, from infants up until older adults.” — Dr. John Accarino   “Part of the conversation sometimes is trying not to overly bias myself, where I say, ‘Oh, this is my experience.' … Like many diseases, there's a large spectrum of presentations, … different symptoms that people have.” — Dr. John Accarino   “We don't think [Food-Induced Response in Eosinophilic Esophagitis is] histamine-mediated. We don't know exactly the mechanism, but it's in people with eosinophilic esophagitis. They feel differently, and there would be different specific food triggers. It took some time to figure out that was going on.” — Dr. John Accarino   “When a scratch test is negative for immediate food allergy, it's a very powerful predictive tool. But there are times that you may get false positives. How positive is it? There might be room for more discussion.” — Dr. John Accarino   “There are a lot of ways that allergy can have different mechanisms and different treatments, with different cells involved.” — Dr. John Accarino

NSAIDs might be the go-to for pain relief, but they come with some gnarly gut side effects. The Turds unravel how these common meds can lead to gastritis, ulcers, and even long-term digestive issues—sometimes in as little as a week. From topical alternatives to protective strategies like H2 blockers and mucilaginous herbs, they weigh the pros, cons, and sneaky risks of these over-the-counter staples. If you've ever popped an ibuprofen without a second thought, this episode might just change your approach to pain management.

Non-Steroidal Anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) stop inflammation on the COX pathway but do NOTHING for the 5-LOX pathway!

20% of all adults suffer from chronic pain, while up to 80% will experience acute pain from injury or surgery.   $600 billion is spent annually in health care costs and loss of productivity due to pain.  In this episode, you'll discover:—Dr. Prather's theory that pain comes from a blockage of energy in one or more of The 5 Pathways Of Pain.  And how each pathway needs to be treated in a different way. —Why Dr. Prather says his patients will first feel an increase in their energy level before they feel a decrease in their pain level.—How 80% of chronic Headache patients have actually given up on finding a solution, but Dr. Prather says that his office is "pretty much 100% successful" with Headaches.—The difference between the medical approach of pain management that masks the symptoms versus the Structure-Function approach of actually fixing the underlying cause of the pain.—Why Opioids and NSAIDs actually "make the pain problem worse" long-term by damaging the body.  And the long list of natural, safe, non-pharmaceutical alternatives Dr. Prather uses in his office that produce better results than the drugs.—How the treatments offered by Holistic Integration are exactly what an independent government commission recommended as the best approach to pain…until the pharmaceutical companies interfered.—Why Dr. Prather says that "Chiropractic is one of the best things you can do" when you're talking about pain relief.  And the reason why Holistic Integration begins with making sure the Atlas is in its proper position.—How Acupuncture "can actually reverse" Opioid addiction by stimulating the body's own natural Opioid production.  And how "everybody" has some issues with a blockage of their Electromagnetic pathway, which makes the biggest difference for Chronic Pain patients.—The link between the Lymphatic pathway of pain and Fibromyalgia, for which Dr. Prather's office gets "remarkable results".  And how the B Vitamins are particularly effective for Nerve Pain. —The Cerebrospinal Fluid blockage that is "easy to diagnose" and is "a different type of pain" which responds well to Craniosacral Therapy at Holistic Integration.  And how Dr. Prather considers a lot of the deep joint pain as a blockage of the Circulatory pathway, which can be treated by "pumping" the joint.http://www.TheVoiceOfHealthRadio.com

We discuss the evaluation of and treatment options for acute back pain. Hosts: Benjamin Friedman, MD Brian Gilberti, MD https://media.blubrry.com/coreem/content.blubrry.com/coreem/Acute_Back_Pain.mp3 Download Leave a Comment Tags: Musculoskeletal, Orthopaedics Show Notes **Please fill out this quick survey to help us develop additional resources for our listeners: Core EM Survey** Clinical Evaluation: Primary Goal: Distinguish benign musculoskeletal pain from serious pathology. Red Flags: Look for indicators of spinal infection, spinal bleed, or space-occupying lesions (e.g., tumors, large herniated discs). Assessment: A thorough history and neurological exam (strength testing, gait) is essential. Additional Tools: Use bedside ultrasound for post-void residual assessment in suspected cauda equina syndrome Imaging Guidelines: Routine Imaging: Generally not indicated for young, healthy patients without red flags. ACEP Recommendations: Avoid lumbar X-rays in patients under 50 without risk factors, as they do not change management and may increase costs and ED time. Advanced Imaging: Reserve MRI for patients with red flags, neurological deficits, or suspected cauda equina syndrome; CRP may be a part of your calculus when evaluating for infectious causes of back pain Treatment Options: Evidence-Based First-Line: NSAIDs offer modest benefit.

According to published estimates, the prevalence of an NSAID allergy (hypersensitivity) in the general population is estimated to be between 0.5% and 2%, with some studies reporting a range of 1-3% of people experiencing a reaction to NSAIDs; however, this rate can be significantly higher in individuals with conditions like asthma, nasal polyps, or chronic urticaria, where it may reach up to 20-30%. Genetic and epigenetic backgrounds are implicated in various processes of NSAID-induced hypersensitivity reactions. Aspirin is a type of NSAID and may result in some cross sensitivity in NSAID allergic people. Well, as low dose aspirin is currently the only pharmacological recommended prophylactic agent for HDP, what can we do for these patients? In a new publication (ahead of print, 2/17/2025), clinicians from Singapore provide helpful insights- and an easy to adopt protocol- for aspirin desensitization in pregnancy. Listen in for details.

Contributor: Ricky Dhaliwal, MD Educational Pearls:  Ketorolac and ibuprofen are NSAIDs with equivalent efficacy for pain in the emergency department Oral ibuprofen provides the same relief as intramuscular ketorolac IM ketorolac is associated with the adverse effect of a painful injection IM ketorolac is slightly faster in onset but not significant Studies have assessed the two medications in head-to-head randomized-controlled trials and found no significant difference in pain scores IM ketorolac takes longer to administer and has a higher cost Ketorolac dosing Commonly given in 10 mg, 15 mg, and 30 mg doses However, higher doses are associated with more adverse effects Gastrointestinal upset, nausea, and bleeding risk Studies have demonstrated equal efficacy in pain reduction with lower doses References Motov S, Yasavolian M, Likourezos A, et al.

In 2013, The ACOG's Hypertension Task Force suggested that NSAIDS not be used in postpartum patients with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy due to theoretical concerns on BP aggravation. But “medicine moves fast”. In 2020, the ACOG “green lighted” ibuprofen use postpartum in these patients if no evidence of renal insufficiency was present. In episode, we will review a brand-new publication (soon to come out), in AJOG, released ahead of print on February 10, 2025. This study is a randomized trial also evaluating the effect of ibuprofen on blood pressure control in those with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. Did they find something new? This highlights the importance of going through an entire study's materials and methods focusing on the years of patient recruitment to properly interpret results. Listen in for details!

Weight loss, NSAIDs, physical therapy, you've done it all and your knees are even more painful.

An episode from The Holistic Navigator. This is not to diagnosis or treat any disease or illness. Consult your physician before taking supplements or medications OR before you stop taking medications. This is for entertainment/informational purposes only-do your own research and talk to your doctor as needed! Chronic pain is epidemic and traditional treatments are causing health disasters in this country. The widespread use of NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) are wreaking havoc on the health of many worldwide and they might not even know it's happening. These are meant to be used for acute pain and short term use, but there are many people that are taking them every day for years. Long term use of these drugs can cause kidney damage, fluid retention, liver stress, create a higher risk of heart disease, and can cause damage to the gut. Are there other options? YES. It's not the norm to be walking around in pain on a daily basis. There are many habits and lifestyles that contribute to this type of pain without you even knowing it. What we eat, our activity levels, our emotions all play a role in our discomfort levels. We're here to say that there is hope and it's possible to live pain free. We'll cover natural supplements and new habits that can help you on the journey to living without pain. What is chronic pain? (1:35) What are the common side effects of NSAIDS? (3:18) What causes chronic pain? (6:42) What is the protocol for addressing chronic pain? (20:25) What is the ideal diet for chronic pain management? (37:12) What about using CBD for pain?

What would happen if you chewed one clove daily for 7 days? I'm sure you've heard of the benefits of clove for teeth and gums, but there's so much more to this fascinating spice. In this video, we're going to talk about the many health benefits of cloves. DATA: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/a... https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles... https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles... https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16235... https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles... https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles... https://www.cambridge.org/core/journa... https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases... https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28524... Clove can act as a natural painkiller, especially for a toothache. Eugenol, the chemical found naturally in clove, can mimic the effects of lidocaine without any side effects. Clove doesn't just work for toothaches. It may work systematically for many other inflammatory conditions. Clove can be beneficial for arthritis, swelling, and joint pain. It mimics the effects of NSAIDs, such as ibuprofen. Cloves also have potent antimicrobial effects, even for antibiotic-resistant bacteria. It's also beneficial against fungi, viruses, Candida, and parasites like malaria. It's been shown to mimic the effects of antibiotics without harming good bacteria. Clove oil can break down biofilms so your immune system can destroy bacteria. Eugenol in clove starves pathogens of energy, preventing them from reproducing. Clove has also been shown to make insulin more sensitive, producing results similar to a mild form of Metformin. Here are a few more of the potential benefits of cloves: •Cancer-fighting properties •Detoxification of the liver •Blood-thinning effects •Boosts your mood •Eliminates gas and bloating •Higher ORAC scale (antioxidant scale) than blueberries •Decreases mucus •Improves bad breath For the benefits of cloves, chew one clove daily, use clove oil topically, or grind it and add it to a smoothie.

Laken Riley's killer was convicted of murder, but he never should have been there in the first place. If Jose Ibarra had been prevented from entering the USA illegally in 2022, Laken would still be alive today. So why does this keep happening? The empathy of good people is being manipulated by activists and extremists who yell words like “tolerance” or “justice” to bully others into compliance. Allie Beth Stuckey calls it “Toxic Empathy” and says it's why so many progressive ideas, like unrestricted immigration or gender surgeries on children, continue to be defended by well-meaning people even as the negative effects dominate headlines. Allie Beth Stuckey hosts the “Relatable” podcast and is the author of multiple New York Times bestselling books including “You're Not Enough (And That's Okay)” and “Toxic Empathy” available at https://amzn.to/4eECNg3.

In 2020, Utah mom & former teacher Brianne Dressen wanted to help her community through the pandemic, so she joined a clinical trial of AstraZeneca's COVID-19 vaccine – one of the first in the USA. But afterward, she says she developed such severe side effects, she began planning her own suicide to escape the “constant agony.” Within hours of beginning the trial, Brianne experienced adverse reactions including “blurred vision, a headache, ringing ears and vomiting” that worsened and required multiple hospitalizations. Now grappling with enormous medical expenses, Dressen is suing the pharma giant after it allegedly offered her a single payment of $1,243.30 in compensation despite her medical costs exceeding $400,000. Brianne's case is covered in the upcoming book “Worth a Shot?: Secrets of the Clinical Trial Participant Who Inspired a Global Movement” available at https://amzn.to/4eEyykA Aaron Siri is Brianna Dressen's attorney.

You can smell the excitement on this amazing episode! The main training topic was on David's favorite study of 2024, which caused major changes in his training approach. The study found some potential mechanisms for improved fatigue resistance, but we take it a step further into theories about solving for a puzzle that has flummoxed coaches and researchers forever. Could this study be the missing link connecting fatigue resistance and training interventions? Maybe. We dive into the cutting edge of endurance training to find out. We also talked about how Megan is planning to rebuild for big goals in 2025 and beyond. It's the perfect opportunity to discuss the interplay of power, speed, cross training, and strength work in an athletic journey. It's also the perfect opportunity to talk about critical internet comments. Scared money don't make money! And this one was full of awesome topics! Other topics: the perils of heat suit training and weak laundry practices, building strength and power, why people are weird on the internet, a shoe that really let us down, some reviews of "supertrainers" and why we think these shoes are so important in training, a triathlon case study on carb oxidation in long events, the controversy around NSAID use in endurance races, and Listener Corner. This one was SO MUCH FUN. Like the listener at the end of the episode, you (and we mean everything that goes into what makes you... plus what comes out of you) = awesome. We love you all! Huzzah!

The German government prosecuted bestselling writer CJ Hopkins for the horrific crime of criticizing the German government. “I've been writing and speaking out against fascism and authoritarianism for over 30 years,” says CJ Hopkins – a lifelong “man of the Left” according to Crisis Magazine. Imagine his surprise when German media accused him of being an extremist neo-Nazi and Amazon banned the cover art of his latest book. “What followed was a criminal investigation, book bans, and contentious legal battles—all aimed at silencing his dissent,” reports Sky News Australia. The government's message, CJ says, is clear: “You will obey, or we will crush you.” Click here to read “The Rise of the New Normal Reich: Consent Factory Essays, Vol. III (2020-2021)” by CJ Hopkins.

Stand-up comedian Tyler Fischer tweeted and deleted a joke about his Delta flight attendant's pin… and the airline responded by placing him on the No Fly List. The multibillion dollar airline says they are aiding their employee in securing an attorney to “take action against their attacker.” “Banned for LIFE from flying. To be clear I had deleted this post already because flight attendants face was in it,” writes Fischer. “I have been a loyal customer and have spent over $10,000 in flights just in the last year with Delta. Now, what chance did they give me? Zero.” • SPONSORED BY JUVENT – If you're serious about optimizing your health and wellness — especially if you want to strengthen your bones and improve mobility — check out the JUVENT Micro-Impact Platform.

“No matter how bad you think Covid policies were, they were intended to be worse,” writes Jeffrey A. Tucker of Brownstone, in a bombshell expose of the original plan for COVID-19: lockdowns for everyone, vaccinated-only public indoor spaces, and an ultimate scheme for permanent vaccine passports – and even nationwide quarantine camps. “People were to be isolated, given only food and some cleaning supplies,” writes Tucker. “There were no provisions made for any legal appeals or even the right to legal counsel.” “In other words,” Tucker concludes “this is what used to be concentration camps.” Dr. Jay Bhattacharya is a Professor of Medicine at Stanford University.

As the 2024 election results began to show a Trump victory, many left-leaning pundits started to ask dangerous, democracy-shattering questions like “how did we have record turnout, but 18 million fewer votes than 2020?” or “is election rigging… possible?” and other things they tried to jail people for saying nary 3 years ago. Following such blatant disinformation spreading and/or Russian election meddling, all social media accounts that questioned the integrity of the election were immediately suspended and their owners' bank accounts were seized by Canada.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Tulsi Gabbard, Vivek Ramaswamy, JD Vance, Elon Musk. Eric Weinstein called them Trump's SuperTicket: his circle of former opponents who set aside their differences, unified under the same banner, and invited their followers to do the same. The strategy worked, winning votes of many who weren't typically MAGA – including fitness superstar Jillian Michaels, who says Trump wasn't her “first choice” but she ultimately voted for him “because I believe in this person so much: Tulsi [Gabbard].” Jillian Michaels is a fitness expert, entrepreneur, and media personality.
