From its anti-inflammatory effects to its ability to resolve long COVID symptoms in days, the real story is not what we've been told. Today, I sit down with Dr. Bryan Ardis to uncover the science behind nicotine, why it has been vilified by medicine and big pharma, and how it supports brain health, immunity, inflammation, and even chronic conditions like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, arthritis, and digestive disorders. We also explore why future pandemics are being framed the way they are, what nicotine has to do with viral resistance, and how to safely use it through foods or patches. If you've struggled with long COVID, chronic inflammation, brain fog, or want to understand the lies around nicotine and salt that may be keeping you unwell, this episode is for you.   “ Nicotine is the antidote to all viruses, and this is why they can't let nicotine be circulated and be allowed to be bought over the counter.” ~ Dr. Bryan Ardis   In This Episode: - Dr. Ardis's background and work - Research linking nicotine to long COVID recovery - Why do governments want nicotine banned? - The real definition of viruses and the role of venom - Nicotine in foods like nightshades, potatoes, and tomatoes - Nicotine is not addictive: Pyrazines are the culprit  - Nicotine's broader health benefits - Nootropic effects and brain fog relief - Dosage protocols for patches and gum - Recommended nicotine companies - Who should never try nicotine? - The importance of minerals and salt for health   Products & Resources Mentioned: Bon Charge Red Light Face Mask: Save 15% sitewide with code WENDY at https://boncharge.com  Qualia Senolytic: Get 15% off with code WENDY at https://qualialife.com/wendy Heavy Metals Quiz: Start now at https://heavymetalsquiz.com    About Dr. Bryan Ardis: Dr. Bryan Ardis is a retired chiropractor, acupuncturist, and nutritionist who has become one of the most recognized voices in exposing medical lies and advocating for natural healing.

Alzheimer's is not inevitable—and it may even be optional. In this groundbreaking episode, you'll learn how to prevent, slow, and in some cases reverse cognitive decline using strategies that also enhance brain optimization, metabolism, and longevity. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey is joined by Dr. Dale Bredesen, a world-renowned neurologist and leading Alzheimer's researcher who has published over 240 peer-reviewed papers. Dr. Bredesen has spent decades proving that Alzheimer's is not a one-pathway disease but a network failure driven by inflammation, toxins, and mitochondrial dysfunction. His protocol has helped thousands of patients regain memory, extend healthspan, and reclaim brain performance. Together, they unpack how biohacking tools like fasting, ketosis, supplements, sleep optimization, cold therapy, and functional medicine can rewire neuroplasticity, protect mitochondria, and keep the brain in “connection mode” instead of decline. You'll hear why the pharmaceutical industry resists these solutions, how toxins like Paraquat and mold fuel cognitive decline, and what young people can do right now to bulletproof their brains for life. This episode is essential listening if you care about hacking human performance, upgrading metabolism, or extending longevity. You'll walk away with practical strategies you can use today—whether that means optimizing your mitochondria with nootropics, strengthening resilience with smarter not harder recovery, or fueling your brain with Danger Coffee. You'll Learn: • Why Alzheimer's can begin as early as your 20s and what biomarkers to track • The seven major drivers of Alzheimer's and how to reverse them with biohacking strategies • How APOE4 genetics, toxins, and inflammation accelerate brain aging—and what to do about it • The role of mitochondria, ketosis, and fasting in restoring brain optimization and neuroplasticity • Why prevention is exponentially easier than reversal and the top three actions you should start in your 20s • How to avoid “learned helplessness” in medicine and reclaim control over your brain span and longevity Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking. With over 1,000 interviews and 1 million monthly listeners, The Human Upgrade is the top podcast for people who want to take control of their biology, extend their longevity, and optimize every system in the body and mind. Each episode features cutting-edge insights in health, performance, neuroscience, supplements, nutrition, hacking, emotional intelligence, and conscious living. Episodes are released every Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday (audio-only) where Dave asks the questions no one else dares, and brings you real tools to become more resilient, aware, and high performing.

If you had a stroke and you're currently taking methylene blue, you wouldn't have much damage. If you had a heart attack while you're taking methylene blue, you're very much protected." — Dr. John Lieurance "Our healthcare model, because it's been so biased with the money from Big Pharma, it's gotten out of control. And this does not limit itself to pharmaceuticals. You can get functional medicine doctors that do the same thing with natural solutions, but just treating symptoms and not actually getting down to the root cause." — Dr. John Lieurance "Through methylene blue, we can feed photons into that system and actually get a boost in vitality and energy at a cellular level. It acts like a sponge to pull the photons into the mitochondria." — Dr. John Lieurance Josh's Trusted Products | Up To 40% Off Shop All Products Biohacking⁠ Korrect Life - 15% OFF WITH CODE "JOSH15" MANNA Vitality - Save 20% with code JOSH20 HigherDOSE - 15% off with the code WELLNESSANDWISDOM PLUNGE - $150 off with discount code WELLNESSFORCE SaunaSpace - 10% off with discount code JOSH10 Ultrahuman Ring Air - 10% off with code JOSH Wellness Test Kits Tiny Health Gut Tests - $20 off with discount code JOSH20 VIVOO Health Tests - Save 30% off with code JOSH SiPhox Health Blood Test - Save 15% off with code JOSH Nutrition + Gut Health Organifi - 20% off with discount code WELLNESSFORCE Paleovalley - 15% off with the link only EQUIP Foods - 20% off with the code WELLNESS20 DRY FARM WINES - Get an extra bottle of Pure Natural Wine with your order for just 1¢ Just Thrive - 20% off with the code JOSH Kreatures of Habit - Save 20% with WISDOM20 Supplements MANNA GOLD - $20 off with the code JOSHGOLD Adapt Naturals - 20% off with discount code WELLNESSFORCE MitoZen - 10% off with the code WELLNESSFORCE Activation Products - 20% off with the code JOSH20 BiOptimizers - 10% off with discount code JOSH10 Fatty15 Essential Fatty Acids Supplement - Get 15% off with code JOSH15 Sleep BiOptimizers Sleep Breakthrough - 10% off with JOSH10 Zyppah Anti-Snoring Mouthpiece - 20% off with the code JOSH MitoZen Super SandMan Ultra™ (Melatonin Liposomal)+ | 10% off with WELLNESSFORCE Luminette Light Therapy Glasses - 15% off with JOSH Cured Nutrition CBN Night Oil - 20% off with JOSH Natural Energy MTE - Save 20% with JOSH TruKava - Save 20% with code JOSH20 Drink Update - Save 25% with discount code JOSH25 EONS Mushroom Coffee - 20% off with the discount code JOSH20 EnergyBITS - 20% off with the code WELLNESSFORCE BUBS Naturals - Save 20% with JOSH20 Fitness + Physical Health Detox Dudes Online Courses - Up to $500 off with discount code JOSH Kineon - 10% off with discount code JOSH10 Create Wellness Creatine Gummies - 20% off with discount code JOSH BioPro+ by BioProtein Technology - Save $30 OFF WITH CODE JOSH Drink LMNT - Zero Sugar Hydration: Get your free LMNT Sample Pack, with any purchase Healthy Home SunHome Saunas - Save $200 with JOSH200 JASPR Air Purifier - Save 10% with code WELLNESS Zyppah Anti-Snoring Mouthpiece - 20% off with the code JOSH Holy Hydrogen - $100 off with discount code JOSH SimplyO3 - 10% off with discount code JOSH10 LEELA Quantum Upgrade + Frequency Bundles - Get 15 days free with code JOSH15 TrulyFree Toxic- Free Cleaning Products - Get 40% off + Freebies with code WELLNESSFORCE Mental Health + Stress Release Mendi.io - 20% off with the code JOSH20 NOOTOPIA - 10% off with the discount code JOSH10 CalmiGo - $30 off the device with discount code JOSH30 QUALIA - 15% off with WELLNESSFORCE Personal Care⁠ The Wellness Company's Emergency Health Kits + More - Save 10% with code JOSH Farrow Life - Save 20% with JOSH Timeline Nutrition - 10% off with JOSH ⁠⁠Intelligence of Nature - 15% off Skin Support with the code JOSH15⁠⁠ Young Goose - Save 10% with code JOSH10 Mindfulness + Meditation BREATHE - 33% off with the code PODCAST33 Neuvana - 15% off with the code WELLNESSFORCE Essential Oil Wizardry - 10% off with the code WELLNESSFORCE Four Visions - Save 15% with code JOSH15 Lotuswei - 10% off with JOSH Clothing Rhizal Grounded Barefoot Shoes - Save 10% with code WELLNESS Earth Runners Shoes - 10% off with the code JOSHT10 Free Resources M21 Wellness Guide - Free 3-Week Breathwork Program with Josh Trent Join The Liberated Life Tribe About Dr. John Lieurance Naturopath and Chiropractic Neurologist, Dr. John Lieurance, has been in private practice for over 27 Years.

Here in Oklahoma we have more than our fair share of storms - especially in the springtime. More than our fair share of tornadoes. I know. I know. We live right in the smack dab middle of Tornado Alley so what should we expect? This week's song is called Like Lightning and Thunder and the story behind it is probably not one you might expect. I was on a 40 day fast in May and June of 2010 and I was experiencing many major storms of life. Let's just say that I was feeling somewhat overwhelmed by life. The storms seemed to be raging out of control and I did not know what to do. I then began to meditate on Psalm 40 along with Isaiah 40 as a means of helping me stay focused on the fast and my need for the Lord to intervene and restore me physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. On may 10, 2010 - day 8 of the fast - I happened to be meditating on Psalm 40 verse 5a which says: Many, O LORD my God, are the wonders which You have done, And Your thoughts toward us [plans for us]. Psalm 40:5a NASB As I began to meditate on this passage of Scripture - began to just mull it over in my mind - I kept getting stuck on the phrase ‘many are the wonders which you have done' and for some reason, I was reminded of something I did quite a few times when my children were still at home. During some of those springtime tornado storms I mentioned earlier, I would often load my children into our 15 passenger van and we would go storm chasing. Don't bother calling child protective services. They are all grown and out of the house now and actively seeking therapy for these episodes. Seriously, I wanted the children to have a healthy fear of the power of those storms, but I also wanted them to develop a sense of wonder and awe at the beauty and creativity and power of God's love being demonstrated right before our eyes. With every bolt of lightning, we oohed and aahed about how massive or how beautiful the display was…at how creative God was in the way no two lightning bolts were ever the same…at how some would flare out into dozens of streams streaking across the sky while still others seemed to crash directly into the earth with one incredibly intense impact. We marveled at the way in which some thunder seemed to all along as if it were bouncing off of the clouds seeming to echo for several seconds while still other claps of thunder would sound as if a bomb had just exploded very near the van. I taught them how to estimate how near the lightning strike actually was by teaching them that if you count five seconds between a lightning strike and the thunder that follows it, that means lightning is just one mile away. I thoroughly enjoyed these storm chases and enjoyed watching my children overcome their fears and begin to see with eyes of wonder - even in a storm. And then it dawned on me. I needed to learn to see the spiritual and mental and emotional storms of life in much the same way as I saw a physical storm. Rather than being overwhelmed and overcome by the storms of life, I could step back while in the midst of these storms and see them from God's point of view. The song Like Lightning and Thunder was born that day and I recorded it just as you will hear it. I added the storm sounds later from a recording of a storm I sat through while on the front porch of our house. This song gives me a much greater appreciation of the magnitude of God's power and creativity…and it does something very healing in my soul. SONG [Psa 135:6-7 NIV] 6 The LORD does whatever pleases him, in the heavens and on the earth, in the seas and all their depths. 7 He makes clouds rise from the ends of the earth; he sends lightning with the rain and brings out the wind from his storehouses. I love that passage from the Psalms. It brings a strange kind of calm to my soul. I know I share quite a bit about one of the storms that I am now encountering in my life. Parkinson's. I am honestly feeling my body and my mind losing ground at times, but I feel somehow sustained by the fierceness and the fury of this storm because it causes me to lift my wings of faith and rather than being blown about by these relentless and strong winds, I spread my wings of faith and use those very same winds to help me rise above the pain and suffering and see the beauty of the storm.  I see the beauty in the way my children help me find the humor and joy in this storm. I see beauty in the way my grandchildren take it in stride and argue about which one gets to hold my party hand - the one that tremors almost constantly. I see beauty in the way my wife cares for me even when I feel like I am a burden to her. I see beauty in the way people treat me with kindness and patience when they notice me tremoring or having a difficult time getting my words out. I see beauty knowing my God is walking through this storm with me. Heck, I find beauty in the fact that I still have the capacity to be creative and write and that my writing still sounds coherent and seems helpful to people.  I encourage you to take the time to watch a storm  as it passes over you and around you - from the safety of your home, of course - and look for God's handiwork. I honestly find storms to be amazing and beautiful. Why not live our lives with that sense of wonder? Why not look for something to be grateful for when we go through such storms? I guarantee you and are never alone - even in the most  devastating storms of life - and that does my soul good. Before I say goodbye for this week, I would humbly ask you to consider getting a copy of my brand new book titled Parkinson's & Recreation 2 - No Walk in the Parkinson's. I bare my soul in this book as to how I am dealing with Parkinson's and I believe it will encourage you whether you have Parkinson's or not. I really do. It's available in paperback, e-book, and audiobook. And if you wouldn't mind doing this for me: once you have read the book, would you consider going back to the place you purchased it online and leaving me a five star review? I have to share a couple of quick reviews from those it has already received reviews from on Amazon.com. GO writes: Inspirational and encouraging book. This is a wonderful uplifting book. I highly recommend it. You won't be disappointed. CR writes: 5.0 out of 5 stars It is life stories and Jernigan history mixed with how they deal with Parkinsons. I have read both of these and love his sense of humor and steadfast faith in God's love no matter what happens. The second book recalls events from his life in the public eye, again remembering humorous episodes.” Please consider reading the book,Parkinson's & Recreation 2 - No Walk in the Parkinson's, and please consider telling others about it, if you don't mind.

Meet a man who is on the run, helping to make the world a better place.  Dan Alperin is a radio executive who took p running several years back and is now an accomplished marathoner, often raising money for charity.  There's a lot to learn from this running man's perspective about the rigors of the sport, the physical and mental benefits it provides and the inner drive to keep pushing onward.  What makes Dan's story even more inspiring is that he was recently diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease.  Instead of letting PD slow him down, Dan has enhanced his training, staying several steps ahead of the disease, ready to continue his marathoning around the globe!

Host Melanie Johnson sits down with Martha Carlin, founder of The BioCollective and a self-taught expert in gut health, who embarked on a mission to solve her husband's Parkinson's diagnosis. Martha shares her fascinating journey from accountant to pioneering gut health researcher, revealing how the gut microbiome connects to everything from brain fog and sleep issues to hormones and chronic disease. In this episode, you'll discover how gut bacteria can influence brain health, mood, sleep, and even conditions like diabetes and Parkinson's. Martha discusses the role of antibiotics, the importance of diet, why most doctors aren't up to speed on microbiome science, and how innovative testing and probiotics can help restore your health from the inside out. She also introduces unique products her team has developed—including solutions for better sleep, stress relief, and curbing sugar cravings—while busting myths and sharing actionable tips for improving your gut and overall wellbeing.

What to know about the symptoms and treatment of Parkinson's Disease, and what supports and resources are available in Maine

This episode is like a quiet chat over coffee about how friendships change as we get older, why we lose people along the way, and what it really takes to keep making meaningful connections. I walk through my own story: moving around, losing touch with school friends, finding a local community in Scotland, and the awkward, emotional stuff that comes with staying connected — especially when life and illnesses (like my partner's Parkinson's) make us smaller and more isolated. We talk about what actually holds friendships together (hint: time together and frequency), why loneliness is becoming so common, and how being willing to put ourselves out there — to be vulnerable and take risks — is the real key. I mention Brené Brown and the idea of “feel the fear and do it anyway,” and share small, practical ways to meet people: join groups around things you love (like my running club), invite people in, say yes when you're asked to join, and accept that it takes courage. If you're feeling alone, this is a gentle nudge: do something you enjoy, get involved, and give friendships room to grow. I also talk about how life and work shifts have forced me to reorient my focus toward in-person coaching and how the podcast may change format soon.   For more information of LB&B, check out the links below, and if you found this useful, consider buying me a coffee below.       Life Passion & Business Podcast is about finding answers to life's big questions through weekly interviews with guest speakers.

My older Sister Jenny passed away on August 12th from Cancer. She was in her home, surrounded by love ones. The cancer was extremely aggressive and there wasn't a lot time to prepare. I did an episode a few weeks ago and touched on our last visit. That visit my sister and I played it all out and shared our deep love, recounting the years of laughs, advice and tough conversations. Jenny made me a better man, Husband and Father. She inspired me to find a direction in life, supported my creative endeavors and was a champion of my decisions in life. This was an important episode to me and I had the great opportunity to tell fun stories and talk about my dear sister Jenny. P.S.

The Caregiver's Journal hosted by Lance A. Slatton with Cindy (PT) & Christina (ST) Hardin-Weiss.   The Caregiver's Journal is the show where we are sharing the caregiving experiences, stories, and wisdom of family caregivers.   Chapter 15 - "Caregiving Love":   About Mary Whitehead:   Mark & I have been partners in life since our first date, a Heart concert, in 1978 followed by our marriage in 1979. Together we raised two children, and along the way we helped care and provide for parents & grandparents throughout their illnesses and aging in place or in senior living centers. I call myself a care partner vs. caregiver because Mark does not need my assistance for everyday tasks. We both use our strengths that complement each other on this path with Parkinson's and several other chronic illnesses he lives with.   My late mother was my inspiration. In my mid-teens I watched her, over the course of two years, lovingly care for my dying father (lung cancer). I could not have had a better, in-home example of someone who did everything, including care for him, with love. I am married to the most wonderful man who insisted that my mom live with us for what totaled the last 12 years of her life so that she could have a comfortable life with no expenses and be cared for by us after having a massive heart attack two years before she passed away.   When Mark was 47, as we became empty nesters and were poised to live out some dreams that were not feasible during our first 2+ decades together, a diagnosis of young onset Parkinson's Disease brought our hopes, plans, and his career to a screeching halt. But it couldn't completely stop this incredible human being, artist, musician/composer, man of many hobbies and a higher math maniac. I like to tease him about trying to share multi-page equations with me for discussion. Side note: he even took an online math course through MIT and I insisted that he buy one of their hoodies to wear proudly. There is so much to Mark that we could never cover in one conversation but rather than dwell on the PD, he prefers to pursue and concentrate on what he CAN do.   We cultivate humor and wit in our relationship. That's where “Tenacious M” - my care partner/gansta moniker comes from. I combine it with my Cornermam enthusiasm to encourage Mark's boxing workouts (excellent for PD) and – like a beagle in a brush pile - I pursue every challenge face head on, whether it's an insurance or pharmacy snafu, etc. Together, we face every aspect of living with PD. And we are both are dedicated PD research participants at Washington Univ., St. Louis, MO, also the location of Mark's neuro, Dr. Joel Perlmutter (definitely the top doc). I, along with two of our friends are in the non-PD control group. We all have pledged to donate our brains at the end of our lives for PD research.   In 2013, inspired by a Parkinsons Foundation resource kit, we created a PD Awareness & Research fundraising blitz, raising nearly $3k for Dr. P's research. Friends, family & my coworkers held Pancakes for PD, Dine-out nights, a proclamation by our city mayor, and, among many other activities, we raffled a beautiful quilt that Mark & I designed, and I did the hand-embroidery.   Like the motto in our Parkinson's & Dystonia private FaceBook group, we will never give up.   And I'd like to credit the group's founder/lead admin, Erika, for creating a safe and supporting space for people with PD and the caregivers & care partners.

In this episode, I sit down with preventative neurologist, Dr. Kellyann Niotis to talk about the importance of brain health. We discuss how to protect our cognitive function and prevent neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's, Dementia, and Parkinson's. Dr. Niotis shares her insights on risk factors, early detection testing, and lifestyle choices that can significantly impact our brain health. I was fortunate enough to do my own preventative testing with her before this episode, so we touch on my experience with concussions, my family history, and how they both impact my own brain health.Key Takeaway / Points:What is preventive neurology and why is it crucial for our long-term health?Innovative testing methods and the importance of early detectionWhy brain health matters starting in your 30s and 40sThe connection between mental health and neurodegenerative diseasesThe role of genetics in brain healthThe link between lifestyle choices and neurodegenerative diseases, plus the effects of alcohol, cannabis, and social media on the brainWhy women are at higher risk for Alzheimer'sHow sleep quality impacts cognitive function and memory consolidationThe importance of diverse experiences and social engagement for brain healthSimple daily habits to boost cognitive functionSponsors:Thrive Market: Go to [ThriveMarket.com/cameron] and start saving today.

Parkinson's disease is the fastest-growing neurological disorder in the world—and according to neurologist and author Dr. Ray Dorsey, our environment may be playing a much larger role than we think. In this conversation, Dr. Dorsey shares key insights from his book The Parkinson's Plan, including how certain pesticides and chemicals—some of which are still used in U.S. agriculture today—are correlated with higher Parkinson's risk. As home gardeners, we may be making choices to avoid chemicals, but this episode highlights what we still need to be aware of. In this episode, we cover: What Parkinson's does to the body and why it's growing so fast The link between common agricultural chemicals and neurological risk What pyrethrins, rotenone, paraquat, and chlorpyrifos are—and where they may show up Why weed killers and even wooden fences may pose a concern How to navigate produce choices when organic isn't always accessible Why well water and contaminated soil may be hidden risks What to know about dry cleaning solvents like TCE and PCE Dr. Dorsey's top tips for reducing your risk (including what to prioritize) Why coffee lovers can celebrate their morning habit Whether you grow your own food or buy it at the grocery store, this conversation offers an eye-opening look at how to reduce your exposure and make more informed choices.

Allied health professionals are a group of healthcare providers whose role and expertise complement the work of physicians. They include specialists such as physical and occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, nutritionists, and many more. They are just as important as your Movement Disorders Specialists and Neurologists and play a vital role in creating a comprehensive, well-rounded Parkinson's care team that attends to your individual needs and addresses your overall well-being. Many people are familiar with physical and speech therapists, but fewer recognize the valuable benefits of working with an occupational therapist (OT). An OT helps identify the activities that you enjoy and ensures strategies are in place so you can continue doing what matters most. They work with you to adapt your environment, tap into your strengths, and create realistic strategies so you can keep living life on your terms. In this episode, Karyssa Silva, MS, OTR/L, CLT, an occupational therapist at Aldersbridge Physical Therapy & Wellness Outpatient Center in Rhode Island, shares how she helps people with Parkinson's with daily tasks and activities that bring them joy. She works closely with people with PD and their loved ones to address physical and mental challenges, empowering them to stay engaged in the activities they value the most. During the episode, Karyssa mentions that people sometimes walk away from their OT appointment and wonder if they missed something important. Here's a worksheet to help organize your thoughts and make the most of your time during appointments. Follow and rate us on your favorite podcast platform to be notified when there's a new episode!

If you're willing, go ahead and sign up! You will find the show notes and lyrics below: Hello and welcome to The Dennis Jernigan Podcast. I'll be honest with you. I sometimes find it hard to believe God has blessed my life the way He has blessed it through music. I honestly have no idea how many songs I have written through the years, but they number in the thousands…most of which you will never hear on this earth. I do not share that as a boast, but I share it to show you how God has led me through my life. I have gone through much blood, sweat, and tears to receive and write down each of those songs. I have endured so much pain during certain periods of my life that put so much pressure on me that songs like Wounded Soldier or Atom Bomb or If I Could Just Sit With You Awhile were literally like lifelines sent from God's heart to mine. Even as I record this podcast I am in a great deal of physical pain and suffering due to Parkinson's. My attitude is one I have learned simply by living my life in relationship with Jesus. I believe God can and will use Parkinson's for my good and for His glory. That's honestly what I believe. I learned how to put off the old way of thinking and to put on the new way of thinking by simply meditating on Romans 8:28 NIV, which says, “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.” There are still naysayers in my life who try to negate this attitude by putting down my faith in Jesus. I have heard people say things like ‘If God is so loving, why does He allow bad things to happen to good people' or ‘How could you trust a God who allows such horrible things in your life?'. The answer to that is actually quite simple. As of the release of this podcast episode, I have been on this planet for over 66 years and have been walking intimately with Jesus through my faith in Him…and He has never given me one reason to not trust Him. He is trustworthy and He is Faithful and He is True…especially when bad things happen to me or someone I love. Mankind allowed sin into the world and sin is the source of all suffering and pain. I don't know how else to say it. This week I am sharing the story behind a song of mine called I Will Trust In You. This particular song came on May 9, 2010, which happened to be day seven of a 40 Day Fast I was doing as a means of cleansing my soul, mind, and body in order to draw closer to Jesus. As another means of helping me keep my eyes and mind focused on Jesus, I was meditating daily on Psalm 40 and on Isaiah 40. This song came as I meditated on Psalm 40 verse four part ‘A' in the NIV Bible. which says, “Blessed is the one who trusts in the LORD…” For far too many years I had placed my trust in all the wrong places and in all the wrong people, in my own performing to help make people like me; basically trying to save myself. In the process, I went through many times of betrayal and many times of emotional wounding and discovered, ultimately, that I could not even trust myself. I especially could not trust myself. To make a long story short, after all was said and done, I found myself at the rock bottom of my life having nowhere to look but up, and in that moment of utter pain and unending shame, I recognized the love of God; that God himself had been pursuing me my entire life. All those I had put my trust in for all those years, had let me down in one way or another. But the only one left standing with me and for me and beside me when I hit the bottom was the God of the universe. Jesus met me right in the depths of my depravity, loving me enough to reach as far as I could fall but also loving me enough to not leave me there in that dark and dreadful place. They say trust is earned and if that is the case, Jesus has earned it and then some! Think about it: Jesus endured pain and sorrow and suffering and torment and had the entire weight of my sin, plus the sin of the entirety of all mankind, all because He wanted to know us…and to make way for us to know Him. When I was left high and dry by others or by my own selfish thinking, He was there for me. Always has been. Always will. SONG Proverbs 3:5-6 in the New International Version of the Bible says it this way:  5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; 6 in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. I trusted in the Lord as a young man over 40 years ago and I find myself approaching the age of 67 and I can look back and honestly say the Lord has been more than trustworthy. Knowing him has been worth all the heartache and suffering and pain. He is worth our trust. He is worth our life. Let's trust him this next coming days.  Before I say goodbye for this week, I would humbly ask you to consider getting a copy of my brand new book titled Parkinson's & Recreation 2 - No Walk in the Parkinson's. I bare my soul in this book as to how I am dealing with Parkinson's and I believe it will encourage you whether you have Parkinson's or not. I really do. It's available in paperback, e-book, and audiobook. And if you wouldn't mind doing this for me: once you have read the book, would you consider going back to the place you purchased it online and leaving me a five star review? I have to share a couple of quick reviews from those it has already received reviews from on Amazon.com. GT writes: loved this book! It was a great mix of humorous stories and anecdotes, history, reality checks, and just an overall good reminder of how crazy life can be. We all struggle and deal with difficulties, but it is how we face those and choose our attitude that makes the difference. A meaningful quote from the book “My God wastes absolutely nothing. Not even my failures. That should speak volumes to us all.” And my favorite review so far - I will only share the first sentence - because it's a bit longer. I actually found myself wanting to read the book again after reading just the opening sentence. PC writes: I laughed, I cried, I think I peed once or twice! That just made my day and then some! Please consider reading the book,Parkinson's & Recreation 2 - No Walk in the Parkinson's, and please consider telling others about it, if you don't mind. That would help me out tremendously.

Breaking Dog News 2025: What Every Owner MUST Know About Safety, Science & Shelters

My guest today is Dr. Kenda Rigdon. Dr. Rigdon is a microbiologist with a PhD in microbiology and virology from the University of Alabama at Birmingham. Drawing from her expertise, she explores how the gut's microbial ecosystem—comprising bacteria, yeast like Candida and Malassezia, and other microbes—interacts with genetic and epigenetic factors to influence Autism. Dr. Rigdon highlights the critical role of the birthing process, particularly how vaginal delivery seeds a newborn's gut with beneficial microbes like lactobacillus, setting the stage for healthy development in the first three years. She also delves into how yeast overgrowth, nutrient competition (e.g., for tryptophan), and environmental factors like manganese and glyphosate exposure can disrupt this delicate ecosystem, potentially exacerbating autism-related symptoms.Dr. Rigdon shares insights into the surprising links between melanin, Neanderthal DNA, and Autism. She discusses how specific genetic mutations, such as MTHFR and PAI1, can intersect with Autism. Additionally, she connects melanin production—potentially influenced by gut yeast like Malassezia—to neurological health, drawing parallels with conditions like Parkinson's. By viewing the gut as a dynamic ecosystem shaped by birth, diet, and early development, this episode offers a fresh perspective on Autism's microbial roots and practical implications for health, urging listeners to reconsider modern birthing practices and dietary choices in fostering a balanced gut microbiome.Dr. Rigdon X https://x.com/KendaRigdonDaylight Computer Companyuse "autism" for $25 off athttps://buy.daylightcomputer.com/RYAN03139Chroma Iight Devicesuse "autism" for 10% discount athttps://getchroma.co/?ref=autism0:00 Dr. Kenda Rigdon1:14 Journey into Microbiology4:08 The Gut's Ecosystem8:21 Genetics, Autism, & The Microbial Connection13:08 MTHFR & PAI1: Homocysteine, Methionine, Folate20:21 The Role of Yeast in Health & Disease; Serotonin, Candida26:39 The Fight for Tryptophan31:14 Impact of Birthing Method on Gut Health (!)33:13 Modern versus Evolutionary Births, Breastfeeding; Oxygen, Acidity, PH37:15 Melanin, Cell Protection, Neanderthal DNA, Autism40:46 Neuromelanin; Biological Energy, Melanocytes43:20 Neanderthal's & Modern Disease & Environments47:23 Microbes in the Brain53:21 Manganese & Gut Health58:22 Gut-Brain Connection & Microbial Balance01:03:19 Early Gut Health & Development; Modern Insults01:07:21 Future Direction in Gut Health & Kenda's Passion & LoveX: https://x.com/rps47586YT: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGxEzLKXkjppo3nqmpXpzuAemail: info.fromthespectrum@gmail.com

Nicotine, NDT Bans, and the Truth Big Pharma Doesn't Want You to Hear In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Bryan Ardis to challenge the mainstream narrative on nicotine and expose what's really behind the push to ban it worldwide. Backed by history, published research, and clinical data, Dr. Ardis explains how nicotine may support recovery from long COVID, reduce inflammation, improve autoimmune conditions, sharpen brain function, and even play a role in cancer prevention. We also cover the FDA's plan to ban natural desiccated thyroid medications and how it connects to larger efforts to restrict patient access to bioidentical hormones and other natural treatments. Dr. Ardis breaks down the financial and political forces at play, and I share my own cancer experience and how this information could shift your approach after a diagnosis. If you're ready to hear the research, the risks, and the real reasons behind these bans, this conversation will give you the clarity you need to protect your health and your options.

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 8-14-2025: Dr. Dawn shares the story of Tim Fried, a construction worker who deliberately exposed himself to 850 snake venom doses over 18 years to build immunity. An immunologist developed antivenom from Fried's antibodies that neutralizes venom from 19 deadly snake species, potentially saving thousands of lives annually from snakebite deaths. She describes cuttlefish sign language research revealing four specific arm movements. The cuttlefish respond to videos and water vibrations from these signs, suggesting complex communication abilities rather than simple mimicry, potentially comparable to octopus intelligence. New research challenges the assumption that Neanderthals were hyper-carnivores. While bone nitrogen levels suggested a meat-only diet, dental evidence showed plant consumption. Researchers now theorize Neanderthals ate maggots from rotting meat, which contain 43% more nitrogen than flesh and would explain the contradictory evidence between bone chemistry and tooth wear patterns. CPR guidelines may soon from the traditional ABC approach (airway, breathing, circulation) to focusing immediately on chest compressions. Research on 45 collapsed athletes showed that 27 who received inappropriate airway clearing died or remained comatose, while three who received immediate rapid chest compressions survived with potential for rehabilitation. The recommendationcould become 100-120 compressions per minute without preliminary airway management. Dr. Dawn presents reassuring statistics about spinal abnormalities in pain-free adults over 60. MRI studies show 90% have disc degeneration, 80% have disc bulges, and 40% have protrusions - yet these individuals have no back pain. This raises questions about attributing back pain to imaging findings when so many similar abnormalities exist in asymptomatic people. Australian cockatoos have learned to operate drinking fountains for entertainment rather than necessity. Researchers observed 70 birds attempting and 40 successfully using fountains, waiting in organized lines and taking turns, despite easier water sources being available nearby. An emailer asks about Essiac tea for cancer prevention. Dr. Dawn explains this herbal blend of burdock root, Indian rhubarb, sheep sorrel, and slippery elm shows promise in laboratory studies but lacks quality human research. While not harmful, no studies demonstrate reduced cancer recurrence rates, though the antioxidant properties may provide general health benefits. Another emailer inquires about lithium supplements for Alzheimer's prevention. Dr. Dawn discusses research showing lower brain lithium levels in Alzheimer's patients and how amyloid plaques trap lithium. Studies suggest lithium orotate (unlike lithium carbonate) isn't absorbed by plaques and may help memory in mice. Low-dose lithium orotate appears safe and mildly calming for humans. Groundbreaking research shows exercise dramatically improves colon cancer survival. A study of 900 patients found the exercise group had 80% five-year disease-free survival versus 74% in controls, with 40% reduced death risk. The intensive program required 10 METs weekly exercise with behavioral support sessions over three years. Dr. Dawn explores coffee's health benefits, noting humanity consumes 2 billion cups daily. Multiple studies show moderate consumption (3-4 cups) reduces breast cancer risk in postmenopausal women and slows Parkinson's progression. Compounds like cafestol and chlorogenic acids provide anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, though benefits disappear when adding significant cream or sugar. She warns about Chikungunya outbreaks in China affecting over 8,000 people. This mosquito-borne illness causes severe bone pain and can spread through blood transfusion. With increased global travel and climate change expanding mosquito ranges, Dr. Dawn emphasizes the importance of volunteering travel history to healthcare providers when presenting with fever and body aches.

Fire took everything Travis owned in just 15 minutes. With his Parkinson's disease symptoms flaring from stress, he faced the seemingly impossible task of rebuilding a life from scratch while his body fought against him. This raw, powerful episode explores the unexpected challenges that emerged when Travis had to relocate to a new house in just four days—a home that, while larger, presents accessibility nightmares with its multiple levels and problematic doorways.Travis takes us on his recent whirlwind journey, from navigating airport security with specialized photography equipment to attending a friend's wedding in upstate New York. The conversation reveals how even routine travel becomes a logistical puzzle when managing a progressive neurological condition, yet Travis refuses to let these obstacles limit his experiences.Hope shines through as Travis shares exciting news about a potential game-changer in his treatment plan. He's been fast-tracked for the innovative Vyalev Pump system—a subcutaneous infusion device similar to an insulin pump that provides continuous medication. This development offers a glimpse into how medical innovation continues to improve quality of life for those with Parkinson's.The most touching moments come when Travis articulates the unique grief of losing personal possessions in the fire. "It's not mourning the stuff," he explains, "it's mourning the experience you had with that stuff." His perspective offers profound insight into the emotional dimensions of loss that extend far beyond material value.Travis's story is a masterclass in resilience—not because he never struggles, but because he continues forward despite overwhelming circumstances. His determination to rebuild his photography archive symbolizes his broader approach to life: acknowledging loss while refusing to be defined by it. Listen now and discover how extraordinary circumstances can reveal extraordinary strength.

Carol Weisman founded Board Builders, an international consultant firm focused on fundraising, philanthropy, and governance in 1994. She is the author of 11 books and is writing her 12th.  In 2020, her husband Frank Robbins was diagnosed with Lewy body dementia, Parkinson's disease, and spinal stenosis. Carol had to take a pause on her consultancy and speaking business to care for him.   Frank, sadly passed away in January of 2025. Carol is now returning to international work, grateful for the time she spent with Frank.  In Life After Loss, she speaks candidly about connecting with the world once again and how life is looking since losing Frank. “I started grieving the day that he was diagnosed. Because there was no medication. I knew there was no hope.  This was such a downward spiral, Frank died a little bit every day.”  Carol's endearing recollection brings her realistic vibe to a very painful experience.   As a listener, you are guaranteed a smile as well as a tear. “Following a loss, the biggest problem is loneliness especially if you were connected to a lot of people because of your spouse or your work.”  says Carol.  Carol has started internet dating, describing dating at 76 as really "bizarre”.  She ends encouragingly. “You recover at that point, it's a process. It's not an event. You don't all of a sudden wake up, go to a, some kind of meeting and you're okay.  Every death is different, every journey of healing, recovery, and repair is different.   You have got to find the pathway that works for you.”

Essential tremor is the most common movement disorder, although it is often misdiagnosed. A careful history and clinical examination for other neurologic findings, such as bradykinesia, dystonia, or evidence of peripheral neuropathy, can reveal potential alternative etiologies. Knowledge about epidemiology and associated health outcomes is important for counseling and monitoring for physical impairment and disability. In this episode, Lyell Jones, MD, FAAN, speaks with Ludy C. Shih, MD, MMSc, FAAN, author of the article “Essential Tremor” in the Continuum® August 2025 Movement Disorders issue. Dr. Jones is the editor-in-chief of Continuum: Lifelong Learning in Neurology® and is a professor of neurology at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. Dr. Shih is clinical director of the Parkinson's Disease and Movement Disorders Center at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston, Massachusetts.

Dr Jones: This is Dr Lyell Jones, Editor-in-Chief of Continuum: Lifelong Learning in Neurology. Today, I'm interviewing Dr Ludy Shih, who recently authored an article on essential tremor for our latest issue of Continuum on movement disorders. Dr Shih is an associate professor of neurology at Harvard Medical School and the clinical director of the Parkinson's Disease and Movement Disorder Center at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston. Dr Shih, welcome, and thank you for joining us today. Why don't you introduce yourself to our listeners? Dr Shih: Thank you, Dr Jones, for having me. It's a real pleasure to be here on the podcast with you. I'm a neurologist, I trained in movement disorders fellowship, and I currently see patients and conduct clinical research. We offer a variety of treatments and diagnostic tests for our patients with movement disorders. And I have developed this interest, a clinical research interest in essential tremor. Dr Jones: And so, as an expert in essential tremor, the perfect person to write such a really spectacular article. And I can't wait for our listeners to hear more about it and our subscribers to read it. And let's get right to it. If you had, Dr Shih, a single most important message for our listeners about caring for patients with essential tremor, what would that message be? Dr Shih: Yeah, I think the takeaway that I've learned over the years is that people with essential tremor do develop quite a few other symptoms. And although we propose that essential tremor is this pure tremor disorder, they can experience a lot of different comorbidities. Now, there is some debate as to whether that is expected for essential tremor or is this some part of another syndrome, which we may talk about later in the interview. But the fact of the matter is, it's not a benign condition and people do experience some disability from it. Dr Jones: And I think that speaks to how the name of this disorder has evolved over time. right? You point out in your article, it used to be called benign essential tremor or benign familial tremor. But it's really not so straightforward as it. And fairly frequently these symptoms, the patient's tremor, can be functionally limiting, correct? Dr Shih: That is correct. In fact, the reason I probably started getting interested in essential tremor was because our center had been doing a lot of deep brain stimulation for essential tremor, which is remarkably effective, especially for tremor that reaches an amplitude that really no oral medication is going to satisfyingly treat. And if you have enough upper limb disability from this very large-amplitude tremor, a surgical option may make a lot of sense for a lot of patients. And yet, how did they get to that point? Do they continue to progress? These were the sort of interesting questions that got raised in my mind as I started to treat these folks. Dr Jones: We'll come back to treatment in just a minute here, because there are many options, and it sounds like the options are expanding. To start with the diagnosis- I mean, this is an extraordinarily common disorder. As you point out, it is the most common movement disorder in the US and maybe the world, and yet it seems to be underrecognized and frequently misdiagnosed. Why do you think that is? Dr Shih: Great question. It's been pretty consistent, with several case series over the decades showing a fairly high rate of quote/unquote “misdiagnosis.” And I think it speaks to two things, probably. One is that once someone sees a postural and kinetic tremor of the arms, immediately they think of essential tremor because it is quite common. But there's a whole host of things that it could actually be. And the biggest one that we also have to factor in is also the heterogeneity of the presentation of Parkinson's disease. Many people, and I think increasingly now these days, can present with not a whole lot of the other symptoms, but may present with an atypical tremor. And it becomes actually a little hard to sort out, well, do they have enough of these other symptoms for me to suspect Parkinson's, or is the nature of their tremor suspicious enough that it would just be so unusual that this stays essential tremor and doesn't eventually develop into Parkinson's disease? And I think those are the questions that we all still grapple with from time to time in some of our clinics. Dr Jones: Probably some other things related to it with, you know, our understanding of the pathophysiology and the availability of tests. And I do want to come back to those questions here in just a minute, but, you know, just the nomenclature of this disorder… I think our clinical listeners are familiar with our tendency in medicine to use words like essential or idiopathic to describe disorders or phenomena where we don't understand the precise underlying mechanism. When I'm working with our trainees, I call these “job-security terms” because it sounds less humbling than “you have a tremor and we don't know what causes it,” right? So, your article does a really nice job outlining the absence of a clear monogenic or Mendelian mechanism for essential tremor. Do you think we'll ever have a eureka moment in neurology for this disorder and maybe give it a different name? Dr Shih: It's a great question. I think as we're learning with a lot of our neurologic diseases---and including, I would even say, Parkinson's disease, to which ET gets compared to a lot---there's already now so much more known complexity to something that has a very specific idea and concept in people's minds. So, I tend to think we'll still be in an area where we'll have a lot of different causes of tremor, but I'm hopeful that we'll uncover some new mechanisms for which treating or addressing that mechanism would take care of the tremor in a way that we haven't been able to make as much progress on in the last few decades as maybe we would have thought given all the advances in in technology. Dr Jones: That's very helpful, and we'll be hopeful for that series of discoveries that lead us to that point. I think many of our listeners will be familiar with the utility---and, I think, even for most insurance companies, approval---for DAT scans to discriminate between essential tremor and Parkinsonian disorders. What about lab work? Are there any other disorders that you commonly screen for in patients who you suspect may have essential tremor? Dr Shih: Yeah, it's a great question. And I think, you know, I'm always mindful that what I'm seeing in my clinic may not always be representative of what's seen in the community or out in practice. I'll give an example. You know, most of the time when people come to the academic Medical Center, they're thinking, gosh, I've tried this or that. I've been on these medicines for the last ten years. But I've had essential tremor for twenty years. We get to benefit a little bit from all that history that's been laid down. And so, it's not as likely you're going to misdiagnose it. But once in a while, you'll get someone with tremor that just started a month ago or just started, you know, 2 or 3 months ago. And you have to still be thinking, well, I've got to get out of the specialist clinic mindset, and think, well, what else really could this be? And so, while it's true for everybody, moreso in those cases, in those recent onset cases, you really got to be looking for things like medications, electrolyte abnormalities, and new-onset thyroid disorder, for example, thyroid toxicosis. Dr Jones: Very helpful. And your article has a wonderful list of the conditions to consider, including the medications that might be used for those conditions that might result or unmask a tremor of a different cause. And I think being open-minded and not anchoring on essential tremor just because it's common, I think is a is a key point here. And another feature in your article that I really enjoyed was your step-by-step approach to tremor. What are those steps? Dr Shih: Well, I think you know first of all, tremor is such common terminology that even lay people, patients, nonclinicians will use the word “tremor.” And so, it can be tempting when the notes on your schedule says referred for tremor to sort of immediately jump to that. I think the first step is, is it tremor? And that's really something that the clinician first has to decide. And I think that's a really important step. A lot of things can look superficially like tremor, and you shouldn't even assume that another clinician knows what tremor looks like as opposed to, say, myoclonus. Or for example a tremor of the mouth; well, it actually could be orolingual or orobuccal dyskinesia, as in tardive dyskinesia. And another one that tremor can look like is ataxia. And so, I think- while they sound obvious to most neurologists, perhaps, I think that---especially in the area of myoclonus, where it can be quite repetitive, quite small amplitude in some conditions---it can really resemble a tremor. And so, there are examples of these where making that first decision of whether it's a tremor or not can really be a good sort of time-out to make sure you're going down the right path to begin with. And I think what's helpful is to think about some of the clinical definitions of a tremor. And tremor is really rhythmic, it's oscillatory. You should see an agonist and antagonist muscle group moving back and forth, to and fro. And then it's involuntary. And so, I think these descriptors can really help; and to help isolate, if you can describe it in your note, you can probably be more convinced that you're dealing with the tremor. The second step that I would encourage people to really consider: you've established it's a tremor. The most important part exam now becomes, really, the nontremor part of the exam. And it should be really comprehensive to think of what else could be accompanying this, because that's really how we make diagnosis of other things besides essential tremor. There really should be a minimum of evidence of parkinsonism, dystonia, neuropathy, ataxia- and the ataxia could be either from a peripheral or central nervous system etiology. Those are the big four or five things that, you know, I'm very keen to look for and will look pretty much in the head, neck, the axial sort of musculature, as well as the limbs. And I think this is very helpful in terms of identifying cases which turn out to have either, say, well, Parkinson's or even a typical Parkinson disorder; or even a genetic disorder, maybe even something like a fragile X tremor ataxia syndrome; or even a spinal cerebellar ataxia. These cases are rare, but I think if you uncover just enough ataxia, for example, that really shouldn't be there in a person, let's say, who's younger and also doesn't have a long history of tremor; you should be more suspicious that this is not essential tremor that you're dealing with. And then the last thing is, once you've identified the tremor and you're trying to establish, well, what should be done about the tremor, you really have to say what kind of tremor it is so that you can follow it, so you can convey to other people really what the disability is coming from the tremor and how severe the tremor is. So, I think an example of this is, often in the clinic, people will have their patients extend their arms and hands and kind of say, oh, it's an essential tremor, and that's kind of the end of the exam. But it doesn't give you the flavor. Sometimes you'll have a patient come in and have a fairly minimal postural tremor, but then you go out, take those extra few seconds to go grab a cup of water or two cups of water and have them pour or drink. And now all of a sudden you see this tremor is quite large-amplitude and very disabling. Now you have a better appreciation of what you really need to do for this patient, and it might not be present with just these very simple maneuvers that you have at bedside without props and items. And then the severity of it; you know, we're so used to saying mild, moderate, severe. I think what we've done in the Tremor Research Group to use and develop the Essential Tremor Rating Assessment Scale is to get people used to trying to estimate what size the tremor is. And you can do that by taking a ruler or developing a sense of what 1 centimeter, 2 centimeters, 3 centimeters looks like. I think it'd be tremendously helpful too, it's very easy and quick to convey severity in a given patient. Dr Jones: I appreciate you, you know, having a patient-centered approach to the- how this is affecting them and being quantitative in the assessment of the tremor. And that's a great segue to a key question that I run into and I think others run into, which is when to initiate therapy? You know, if you see a patient who, let's say they have a mild tremor or, you know, something that quantitatively is on the mild end of the spectrum, and you have, you know, a series of options… from a medication perspective, you have to say, well, when does this across that threshold of being more likely to benefit the patient than to harm the patient? How do you approach that question? What's your threshold for starting medication? Dr Shih: Yeah. You know, sometimes I will ask, because---and I know this sounds like a strange question---because I feel like my patients will come for a couple of different reasons. Sometimes it's usually one over the other. I think people can get concerned about a symptom of a tremor. So, I actually will ask them, was your goal to just get a sense for what this tremor is caused by? I understand that many people who develop tremor might be concerned it might be something like Parkinson's disease. Or is this also a tremor that is bothering you in day-to-day life? And often you will hear the former. No, I just wanted to get checked out and make sure you don't think it's Parkinson's. It doesn't bother me enough that I want to take medication. They're quite happy with that. And then the second scenario is more the, yeah, no, it bothers me and it's embarrassing. And that's a very common answer you may hear, may be embarrassing, people are noticing. It's funny in that many people with essential tremor don't come to see a doctor or even the neurologist for many years. And they will put up with it for a very long time. And they've adopted all sorts of compensatory strategies, and they've just been able to handle themselves very admirably with this, in some cases, very severe tremor. So, for some of them, it'll take a lot to come to the doctor, and then it becomes clear. They said, I think I'm at the point where I need to do something about this tremor. And so, I think those three buckets are often sort of where my patients fall into. And I think asking them directly will give you a sense of that. But you know, it can be a nice time to try some as-needed doses of something like Propranolol, or if it's something that you know that they're going to need something on day-to-day to get control of the tremor over time, there are other options for that as well. Dr Jones: Seems like a perfect scenario for shared decision-making. Is it bothersome enough to the patient to try the therapy? And I like that suggestion. That's a nice pearl that you could start with an a- needed beta blocker, right, with Propranolol. And this is a question that I think many of us struggle with as well. If you've followed a patient with essential tremor for some time and you've tried different medications and they've either lost effectiveness or have intolerable adverse effects, what is your threshold for referring a patient for at least considering a surgical neurostimulator therapy for their essential tremor? Dr Shih: Yeah, so surgical therapies for tremor have been around for a long time now, since 1997, which was when it was approved by the FDA for essential tremor and Parkinson tremor. And then obviously since then, we have a couple more options in the focus ultrasound thalamotomy, which is a lesioning technique. When you have been on several tremor medications, the list gets smaller and smaller. It- and then chance of likely satisfying benefit from some of these medications can be small and small as you pass through the first and second line agents and these would be the Propranolol and the primidone. And as you say, quite a few patients- it's estimated between 30 to 50% of these patients end up not tolerating these first two medications and end up discontinuing them. Some portion of that might also be due to the fact that some of our patients who have been living with essential tremor for decades now, to the point that their tremor is getting worse, are also getting older. And so, polypharmacy and/or some of the potential side effects of beta blockers and anticonvulsants like primidone may be harder to bear in an older adult. And then as you talk about in the article, there's some level of evidence for topiramate, and then from there a number of anticonvulsants or benzos, which have even weaker evidence for them. It's a personal decision. As I tell folks, look, this is not going to likely extend your life or save your life, but it's a quality of life issue. And of course, if there are other things going on in life that need to be taken care of and they need that kind of care and attention, then, you know, you don't need to be adding this to your plate. But if you are in the position where those other things are actually okay, but quality of life is really affected by your being unable to use your upper limbs in the way that you would like to… A lot of people's hobbies and applications are upper limb-based, and enjoying those things is really important. Then I think that this is something- a conversation that we begin and we begin by talking about yes, there are some risks involved, but fortunately this is the data we have on it, which is a fairly extensive experience in terms of this is the risk of, you know, surgery-related side effects. This is the risk of if you're having stimulation from DBS stimulation-related side effects, which can be adjustable. It's interesting, I was talking with colleagues, you know, after focused ultrasound thalamotomy was approved. That really led more people to come to the clinic and start having these discussions, because that seemed like a very the different sort of approach where hardware wasn't needed, but it was still a surgery. And so, it began that conversation again for a bunch of people to say, you know, what could I do? What could I tolerate? What would I accept in terms of risk and potential benefit? Dr Jones: Well, I think that's a great overview of a disorder where, you know, I think the neurologist's role is really indispensable. Right? I mean, you have to have this conversation not just once, this is a conversation that you have over time. And again, I really want to refer our listeners to this article. It's just a fantastic overview of a common disorder, but one where I think there are probably gaps where we can improve care. And Dr Shih, I want to thank you for joining us, and thank you for such a great discussion on essential tremor. I learned a lot from your article, and I learned even more from the interview today. I suspect our readers and listeners will too. Dr Shih: Well, thank you again for the invitation and the opportunity to kind of spread the word on this really common condition. Dr Jones: Again, we've been speaking with Dr Ludy Shih, author of a fantastic article on essential tremor in Continuum's latest issue on movement disorders. Please check it out, and thank you to our listeners for joining today. Dr Monteith: This is Dr Teshamae Monteith, Associate Editor of Continuum Audio.

Smiling is a universal way to show happiness. But not all smiles are happy. In reality, we smile less for happiness than for social reasons that have nothing to do with happiness. That said, few things are more ingratiating and calming as another person's genuinely warm smile. But, maybe it's because a genuine smile is such a great thing that we're always looking for the false one. But we shouldn't assume that a smile that reflects something other than unadulterated joy is always a bad thing. Smiling has an evolutionary function, helping to ensure our survival after birth. Babies first smile while still in the womb and deliberately smile at us shortly thereafter less because they're thrilled to have us as parents and more to keep us happy with them. There's a reason for this. Smiling has high social benefits: those who smile are considered more social, more accessible, more helpful, and more attractive. But, what happens when you can't smile? The absence of a smile is life-changing, yet until we lose it, we take it for granted. There are many illnesses that make it difficult to smile including Parkinson's Disease, Bell's Palsy, and Moebius Syndrome, a particularly devastating illness that afflicts babies. Today, we talk to Jonathan Kalb, a professor of Theatre at Hunter College who spent three years recovering his smile after developing what he thought was a temporary bout of Bell's Palsy. He wrote this thoughtful essay on his experience for The New Yorker. Beyond the inability to smile, what happens you just don't want to smile? The social customs for smiling vary between countries, with many countries feeling we Americans simply smile too much. Partly, it depends on whether you're a woman. As a result, women may smile more, even when they don't want to.

Through the years God has seen fit to give me many songs and there's a story behind each and everyone of them. This week's song is no different. The song is called The Source and it can found on my recording Forty Days & Forty Nights - Songs of Contemplation and Intimacy, Volume One. This particular song came on May 8, 2010, which happened to be day six of a 40 Day Fast I was doing as a means of cleansing my soul, mind, and body in order to draw closer to Jesus. That means of helping me keep my eyes and mind focused on Jesus, I was meditating daily on Psalm 40 and on Isaiah 40. This song came as I meditated on Psalm 40 verse three part a which says, “Many will see and fear And will trust in the LORD.” In those days I was still traveling and ministering around the world quite a bit and honestly felt a bit overwhelmed and out of control of my life. It seems like my life was well ordered and very much in sync with the Lord, but reality was that I had many things I was clinging to which the Lord wanted me to release to him. Some of the hardest things to release in my life involved my children. Basically, I was having to learn to let them go and release them to begin their own adult journeys without me trying to control or manipulate them in anyway regarding the choices they would need to make on their own. On another level, the political climate of those days was becoming quite hostile toward me which, in turn, worked against me feeling free enough and safe enough to share my story of deliverance from same-sex attraction. Even though I knew God was the source of my strength, I begin to recognize during the fast that there were still areas of fear that I needed to deal with. I desperately needed to strip away all the fear from every area of my life and I did this by reminding myself that God loves me with the passion and intensity of 100 million stars and that he is the absolute source of everything good in my life. He spoke the universe into existence. He set every star, every galaxy, and every planet in just the exact place in the gravitational force to sustain life. Quite simply, I truly needed to see him as my all in all. The Lord reminded me that he would be with me every step of the way through this journey we call life. He reminded me that I was never and had never ever been alone. He reminded me I was not here to be served but that I was here to lay down my life as a servant to those around me. He reminded me that even if I lost my life due to my faith, there would be no big change because I would still be with him. The bottom line was becoming quite evident to me. I needed to see Jesus Christ as the source, as the only one who could truly meet my deepest needs. And let's take the next five minutes and simply acknowledge the fact that Jesus Christ is the source of everything we all need. He is here. Let's acknowledge that truth whether we feel anything or not. Let's plug into out Source right now. Ready? SONG Regardless of our circumstances, regardless of the countless hurts and wounds we receive throughout this journey we call life, and regardless of what anyone else thinks about our faith in Jesus, our God is the ultimate source and he is ultimately in control…especially when our lives seem to be spinning out of control. I have Parkinson's and I hate it, but I believe my God is able to use it for my good and for his glory - and that is enough for me. My personal goal is to just simply stay connected to him each and every moment of each and every day. John 15:4-9 in the NIV has become very dear to me due to my health issues. In these verses, Jesus says it so clearly and I take it so personally: 4 Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me. 5 I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. 6 If you do not remain in me, you are like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned. 7 If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. 8 This is to my Father's glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples. 9 As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love.' No matter what, I must remain connected to Him. I must - WE must - remain in His love. It is in this place of God's love that the cares of this world - even Parkinson's - is unable to touch me. And I can live…I mean REALLY live…with that.

Remember this from today's episode: the one and only place in the entire universe to have all your needs met is in our relationship with Jesus Christ through faith. He is the vine from which we receive the fulness of life and we are the branch which extends His life and love to others. You and I are not here for ourselves. We are servants of the Kingdom…even with something like Parkinson's thrown into the mix. My plan? To minister to the needs of others in spite of Parkinson's. Now, go forth and embrace the truth of who your heavenly Father says you are.   The Source Words & Music by Dennis Jernigan Received on May 8, 2010 Psalm 40:3b ©2010 Shepherd's Heart Music, Inc./Dennis Jernigan Administered by PraiseCharts.com   Verse All of the things that I think I need Do I control them or do they control me Feed the hunger, quench the thirst in me Take control of my lack of control Loose the grip of my sense I see hold And feed the hunger, quench the thirst in me   Chorus And many will see, and many will hear And many will know, and many will fear That you are the reason, You are the answer To their existence   So here is my life Lord, take it and use it I will find life the moment I lose it You are the reason, You are the answer to my existence You are the source, You are my source   Verse Two I am not here for my own happiness You created me to proclaim and confess That you alone are God and very source   I will be the cloth used to wash men's feet Hid behind the cross helping others to see That you alone are God the very source Chorus And many will see, and many will hear And many will know, and many will fear That you are the reason, You are the answer To their existence   So here is my life Lord, take it and use it I will find life the moment I lose it You are the reason, You are the answer to my existence Chorus And many will see, and many will hear And many will know, and many will fear That you are the reason, You are the answer To their existence   So here is my life Lord, take it and use it I will find life the moment I lose it You are the reason, You are the answer to my existence You are the source, You are the source

Have you ever been curious how a naturopath approaches medicine for a person with Parkinson's? Turns out it's super comprehensive. Spoiler alert - we couldn't cover it all, but what you'll learn from Dr. Tanya Denne, ND will blow your mind! Hosts Erin Gallardo, PT, DPT, NCS and Claire McLean, PT, DPT, NCS learn about Dr. Denne's journey into naturopathic medicine and her groundbreaking research on Mucuna pruriens, a botanical treatment for Parkinson's disease. Driven by a personal connection to neurological conditions through her grandmother's Alzheimer's, Dr. Denne discovered naturopathic medicine as a holistic approach to healthcare that goes beyond traditional Western medical treatments. Her research focuses on Mucuna pruriens, a subtropical plant with remarkable potential for Parkinson's patients. Unlike traditional medications, Mucuna contains high levels of levodopa and offers multiple beneficial constituents, including amino acids, glutathione, and antioxidants. Dr. Denne emphasizes that the plant isn't a cure, but can potentially slow disease progression when used correctly. The biggest challenge in using Mucuna is ensuring quality and proper dosage. Dr. Denne warns about widespread supplement adulteration, recommending patients work closely with qualified practitioners to source safe, effective products. She suggests using Mucuna as a complementary treatment to standard Parkinson's medications, particularly Sinemet, to optimize patient outcomes. One of her most compelling case studies involves a patient whose Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) score dramatically improved from 27 to 8 through an integrative approach combining Mucuna, exercise, and foundational health optimization.

I met Jaden back in the early days of Knife Talk Podcast . He was a young guy starting to learn about knife making and sending us at the podcast a lot of great questions for the show. Over the years we saw him as a growing knife maker, good guy and supporter of the show. A couple of years I saw that he was involved in a horrific car accident that changed his life.

Episode 2680 - Vinnie Tortorich and Chris Shaffer discuss Parkinson's disease, purpose, the marketing of sugar, and making the most of your time. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/08/making-the-most-of-your-time-episode-2680 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS   YOU CAN WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE - Making the Most of Your Time Vinnie had a long-term relationship with a woman who struggled with Parkinson's disease. (2:00) He also shares a story about Ozzy Osbourne, who was always very considerate. (5:00) Parkinson's has its challenges that appear to be less influenced by lifestyle. It can be early-onset and be diagnosed as early as age 35. This launches a conversation about leaving a legacy. (15:20) Vinnie's main interest has been to help people with their health. Coke made a big announcement that they are bringing “real sugar Coke” back into the U.S. (29:00) This is not a better option—it's still filled with sugar! Fruit juices are nothing but sugar. (36:00) Chris shares some trivia about the marketing of Coke, Pepsi, and Russia. (44:00) Phone screen diet update. (45:00) A study shows that kids who had cell phones or iPads before age 13 had more mental health challenges. (46:00) Has Vinnie noticed changes in himself or how he feels since using his phone only for work purposes? What goes into your body, both physically and mentally, affects what comes out. (48:00) Be wise in the use of your time! It's not true that technology always gives you more time. (52:00) A lot of technology just makes you lazy and lose health and mindfulness. (55:00) Do something useful and with purpose! For example, make dinner at home and have it be a part of family time—connection matters. Part of the success of Blue Zones is less about diet and more about community and basic human connection. (57:00) A lot of stuff is coming up with Vinnie in August, so keep an ear open!

"I can seal your leaky gut. It'll take a while, but I can seal it. But if you keep swallowing razor blades, you're gonna tear it right open." - Dr. Steven Gundry What if I told you that your brain isn't actually in charge of your thoughts and cravings? My longtime neighbor and friend, Dr. Steven Gundry, just blew my mind again with revelations that completely change how we think about hunger, decision-making, and brain health. We're walking around, believing we're making conscious choices about food, but the truth is that our gut bacteria are pulling the strings, like puppet masters. This conversation unveiled the shocking connection between our deteriorating gut health and the rise in neurological conditions we're seeing in women over 40. From the patient with Parkinson's who got her life back to why you feel amazing eating pasta in Italy but feel inflamed after a "healthy" meal at home, Dr. Gundry reveals the hidden razors we're swallowing daily that are literally shredding our gut lining and creating brain inflammation. If you've been struggling with brain fog, autoimmune issues, or feeling like your body is working against you, this episode will give you hope and a clear path forward.  What you'll learn: Why your gut bacteria are actually making your food decisions and controlling your hunger signals The shocking truth about how leaky gut creates "leaky brain" and leads to neuroinflammation Dr. Gundry's three-step protocol for healing your gut-brain connection (including his surprising vitamin D recommendation) How everyday "razor blades" like ibuprofen and glyphosate are destroying your gut lining Why you can eat bread in Europe but not America - and what this means for your health The remarkable case study of a Parkinson's patient who reversed her symptoms through gut healing How root vegetables and spices can actually train your immune system to be more tolerant The hidden reason why 90% of addiction recovery programs fail (and what should be targeted instead) Love the Podcast?
