What is creatine, and how does it work in our body during high-intensity activities like sprinting or weightlifting? Did you know creatine boosts ATP production, our body's immediate energy source, amplifying performance in short, intense workouts? What unique role does creatine play in muscle recovery and growth, especially regarding myosatellite cells? Is it true that creatine can lead to an increase in muscle volume by retaining water? Can creatine supplement usage extend beyond athletic performance, possibly benefiting neurological conditions like Parkinson's and ALS? ... we explain like I'm five Thank you to the r/explainlikeimfive community and in particular the following users whose questions and comments formed the basis of this discussion: wasirong, db0255, din0saurusrex_, fh3131, wild_ad2899, rubseb, xsignia, superhazem.

Welcome to episode 300! In this eye-opening episode, we dive into the latest cutting-edge research shaking up the wellness world. First, we explore how creatine—a supplement long known for its fitness benefits—is showing promise in combating Alzheimer's disease, potentially offering a new line of defense for cognitive decline. We also unpack emerging research linking Parkinson's disease to pesticides commonly found on golf courses, raising important questions about environmental exposure and neurodegeneration.The conversation then shifts to our latest biohacking experiments, including the use of Delta Sleep Inducing Peptide (DSIP) to improve deep sleep, the powerful ingredient paraxanthine as a cleaner caffeine alternative, and even the overlooked practice of coffee enemas for detoxification and mental clarity.The episode wraps with a deep dive into cycle syncing, a popular but often misunderstood strategy for aligning lifestyle choices with the menstrual cycle. We break down the biological reasoning behind syncing your workouts, diet, and supplements with each phase of the cycle. We separate fact from fiction, tackle common myths, and discuss both the pros—like optimized energy and hormonal harmony—and cons, including potential over-complication and the risk of becoming overly rigid.Whether you're a seasoned biohacker or just curious about the intersection of science and wellness, this episode delivers a potent mix of science-backed insights, personal experimentation, and myth-busting clarity.SHOW NOTES:0:39 Welcome to the podcast!3:19 Creatine for Alzheimer's7:12 Golf courses & Parkinson's11:45 Coffee enemas19:11 Delta-Sleep-Inducing Peptide20:24 Gupta Program22:45 Timeline nutrition25:52 Paraxanthine x UPDATE27:26 Lauren's Red Light stack28:32 **ALIGN MAT*30:31 Hack for back pain31:49 Cycle Syncing headline36:14 Benefits of cycle syncing39:46 Supporting muscle protein synthesis43:01 Tracking your menstrual cycle47:02 Is Cycle Syncing a trend?49:32 Thanks for tuning in for 300!RESOURCES:Creatine: Kion - code: biobabes15 & Puori - code: biohackerbabesPompa Program Cellular DetoxHappy Bum Coffee Enema Kit - Discount code: BIOHACKERBABESGupta ProgramLimbic Retraining: Primal Trust, DNRSTimeline Nutrition - code: BIOHACKERBABESDrink UpdateAlign Mat - code: BIOHACKERBABES to save $250 OURA RingOur Sponsors:* Check out Puori: https://Puori.com/BIOHACKERBABESSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/biohacker-babes-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

I'm your host, Dennis Jernigan, and I am so grateful you have joined me for this week's podcast. I'll get right to the heart of the matter today. For far too many years I allowed the lies of the enemy to define me. That all changed the day I was overwhelmed with the Truth that Jesus Christ had died for me. I was instantly set free from my past but had to walk out the wonderful but difficult journey toward wholeness. In fact, I'm still on that journey. I invite you to join me for today's brief leg of that adventure as I share the story behind my song, “Rock of My Life”. Way back in 2010, I embarked on an adventure that lasted 40 days but continues to affect my life to this day. From May 3 through June 11 I went on a 40 day fast. I needed to reboot my system because I had just gone through a series of traumatic events that left me gutted. The Lord called me to a fast and led me to meditate daily on Psalm 40 and Isaiah 40. He spoke to my heart and told me He would give me a song each day of the fast and that I was to record it that same day. Since then, I put together 4 ten song volumes where you can find all 40 songs. The first ten songs are on the collection called Forty Days and Forty Nights - Songs of Contemplation and Intimacy Vol. 1. This week's episode is the story behind the song “Rock of My Life” which came to me on May 6, 2010 which was day 4 of that fast. As soon as I began the fast, I felt God's presence and love for me and my spiritual hunger for more of Him began to surpass my physical hunger. But what the Lord began to reveal to me was often not always pleasant or easy to hear. He revealed to me that I still believed certain lies about my identity; He showed me that I still battled thoughts of being unlovable and of feeling rejected; He pulled back the curtain of my heart and I saw that I still struggled with doubts and that I often reverted to a victim mentality. It felt like I was suddenly on shaky ground. On May 6, 2010, I meditated on Psalm 40:2b which says, “And He set my feet upon a rock making my footsteps firm.” To say I was consumed with what that meant to my soul is an understatement. The sinking sand I had been mired in suddenly began to be replaced by the Solid Rock of my faith in the ever-present presence of my Savior, Jesus Christ. As I poured out my heart to him in honest confession, anxious thoughts began to fall by the wayside; fear began to melt away from the fire of God's massive love for me; doubt was eradicated; I stepped into an even greater awareness of who I am and of whose I am; as I declared the truth of God's word over my own soul, I suddenly found myself firmly planted on the solid rock of Jesus Christ. From that vantage point, I recognized that I had set my eyes on Dennis - on myself - and we always know how that goes. I saw that in my pride there was no room for Jesus, but as I humbled myself and fixed my eyes on Him, even the most hurtful traumas of my life began to go through a whole new phase of healing. Let's take a few minutes and listen to the song and, as we do, let us fix our eyes away from ourselves and onto the solid rock of Jesus Christ. Are you ready? SONG As I have said in the past few episodes, these songs have taken on a whole new meaning for me since my diagnosis of Parkinson's in 2019. But the truth of the matter is that I have discovered the rock solid foundation of faith in Jesus Christ is even more solid and more steadfast than I could ever could have imagined experiencing in this life. Jesus is indeed a steadfast rock…the Rock of My Salvation…and will continue to be so until the day I die - and far beyond. The bottom line? I am not a victim. I am a victor because of the victorious work of Jesus on the cross and because of His victory over sin, death, and the grave. I am full of resurrection power…and so are you, my fellow new creations in Christ. Thank you for tuning in to The Dennis Jernigan Podcast!

Remember this from today's episode: the constant, unwavering, massive love of God is where we must choose to abide and wait on Him. He is a sure Foundation. He is Solid Ground in a shaken and fallen world. Just keep your eyes fixed on Him and keep your feet firmly planted on the Solid Rock of Jesus Christ. Now, go forth and embrace the truth of who your heavenly Father says you are.       Vol. I – Song Four – Day Four Psalm 40:2b NASB   Rock of My Life Words & Music by Dennis Jernigan

Verse One One day happy, next day alone Greatest sorrow I've ever known Then I cried out to You And You set my feet upon a rock   One day hopeful, next day in pain Fears consume me, falling like rain Then I cried out to You And You set my feet upon a rock   Chorus You are the rock and the hope of my life You are the air that I breathe to survive You are my hope, You are the rock of my life   You are my rock and the hope of my life You are my joy with an endless supply You are my hope, You are the rock of my life              Verse two One day standing, next day I'm down I get so lost but I want to be found So I cry out to you and you set my feet upon a rock   One day soaring, next day in shame In my own strength, I go down in flames So I cry out to you, and you set my feet upon a rock Chorus You are the rock and the hope of my life You are the air that I breathe to survive You are my hope, You are the rock of my life   You are my rock and the hope of my life You are my joy with an endless supply You are my hope, You are the rock of my life

This summer we'll be interviewing a handful of interesting people who are living with Parkinson's. First up: the novelist Linda Grant. Linda started life as a journalist before becoming acclaimed fiction writer who won the Women's Prize in 2000 for her novel When I Lived in Modern Times, and was shortlisted for the Booker Prize in 2008 for The Clothes on Their Backs. Here, she talks for the first time about her Parkinson's diagnosis, how it has impacted her writing, and how she plans to become (maybe) the first writer to bring to life a protagonist living with PD.Don't forget to sign the Parky Charter petition by going to ParkyPetition.com!Sponsored by Boardwave, who support Cure Parkinson's.Presented by Rory Cellan-Jones, Gillian Lacey-Solymar, Mark Mardell, Paul Mayhew-Archer, Sir Nicholas Mostyn and Jeremy Paxman.Produced and edited by Nick Hilton for Podot.Sound mixing by Ewan Cameron.Music by Alex Stobbs.

Story at-a-glance Restless leg syndrome (RLS) causes an irresistible urge to move your legs, with symptoms worsening at night. The sensations are described as crawling, pulling, aching, and throbbing RLS is often linked to underlying conditions such as iron deficiency, kidney failure, peripheral neuropathy, spinal cord conditions, or Parkinson's disease Nutritional approaches like increasing iron, magnesium with B6, and vitamin D intake help manage RLS symptoms without the side effects of pharmaceutical medications Traditional herbal remedies like Dangguijakyak-san (DS) and Shihogyeji-tang (ST) also help treat RLS by balancing blood flow and dopamine activity Exercise, stretching, acupuncture, and other holistic approaches like pneumatic compression devices and near-infrared light therapy effectively reduce RLS symptom severity and improve sleep quality

Eric Collett is the man who's rewriting the script on brain health and challenging everything we thought we knew about aging. Imagine a world where Alzheimer's isn't an inevitable decline, but a preventable condition. That's not science fiction - that's Eric's mission. A former memory care executive turned brain health revolutionary, Eric went from running a struggling care facility to developing a groundbreaking protocol that's helping people reverse cognitive decline - we're talking about Parkinson's patients doing jumping jacks after being wheelchair-bound, and dementia patients dramatically improving their cognitive scores.   With a childhood dream of building flying machines and a professional journey that's taken him from caring for seniors to consulting with NFL athletes, Eric isn't just another health expert - he's a visionary who believes your brain's potential is limited only by your willingness to understand and nurture it. His company, A Mind for All Seasons, isn't just treating symptoms - they're uncovering the root causes of neurological challenges, from dental health to environmental toxins.   If you've ever wondered whether cognitive decline is truly inevitable, or if you're ready to take control of your brain's future, this conversation will change everything you think you know about health, aging, and human potential.   Connect with Eric Collett on his website: https://amindforallseasons.com/  On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/a-mind-for-all-seasons/    = = = = = I write for people who want more signal, less noise.

In this episode of In the Circle, I respond to a courageous and heartfelt inquiry from Barbara. She asks: How do I make peace with taking medication for Parkinson's, after years of addiction and recovery? Her story is raw, vulnerable, and deeply human: the daily crash after each dose, the fear it stirs up, the echoes of withdrawal, and the sense that maybe she's being pulled back into something she's worked so hard to rise above.What struck me most was the physical discomfort she described and the emotional complexity behind it—the grief, the doubt, the resistance. I've seen this before, in myself and others: when medication is both necessary and triggering, it's not just about dosage. It's about trust. It's about building a relationship with the medicine that aligns with our values, instead of clashing with our past.My invitation to you is to reframe the story. What if this is magic medicine? What if we drop the judgment and meet the reality of the moment with full presence and compassion? It's not giving up. It's aligning with what's true right now and adjusting our lives to support that truth with grace. That might mean talking to your doctor, shifting routines, or simply asking for more help. But it starts with acceptance.So if you're in a complicated relationship with medication, or supporting someone who is, I hope this conversation reminds you: your strength is not measured by how little you need, but by how deeply you show up for your life. There is no shame in taking what helps. There's only the next step, the next breath, and the next moment of courage.Tommy Discusses:Relief and discomfort can coexistLifestyle adjustments and MedicationAcceptance is a powerful toolYou are not alone, you are not failingWould you like to be a guest on the In The Circle Podcast?

If you or a loved one is experiencing early signs of dementia or cognitive impairment, specialized brain imaging can help detect different types of dementia and lead to more targeted treatments for Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's dementia and other causes of cognitive decline. Richard Lichtenstein, MD, a radiologist practicing at Sarasota Memorial explains how these scans work and why early detection is vital.You can also watch the video recording on our Vimeo channel here.For more health tips & news you can use from experts you trust, sign up for Sarasota Memorial's monthly digital newsletter, Healthe-Matters.

Leah breaks down everything veterans need to know about Parkinson's disease and VA disability, with a clear focus on ratings, connection, and benefits. She explains how Parkinson's disease can be service-connected through direct, presumptive, or secondary pathways—especially for those exposed to Agent Orange, burn pits, or toxic chemicals during military service. Leah covers how the VA rates Parkinson's (starting at 30% but often much higher when all symptoms are considered), what documentation is required to build a strong connection to service, and the wide range of benefits available—from monthly compensation to caregiver support, adaptive housing grants, and priority healthcare.

This story of mind-blowing resilience is a wake-up call for anyone feeling stuck, sidelined, or afraid to bounce back. On a recent episode of The Debbie Nigro Show, I had the joy of speaking with global wellness pioneer Dan Metcalf—international performer turned brain-injury survivor, Olympic coach, and now CEO of Total Balance Company and Born Superhuman.   Hard to believe this superhuman got in touch with me to see if I was interested in uncovering how we could inspire listeners together.  Here's what I read when I opened his blind email to me. Hey Debbie. “I've been following The Debbie Nigro Show and truly appreciate the inspiring stories you bring to light. I believe I could add a compelling angle to your discussions with my unique journey in health and mental resilience. As someone who has performed live for over 5,000,000 people globally and played lead roles in Andrew Lloyd Webber shows, I've learned resilience like no other, especially after being paralyzed during a performance. This experience resulted in a brain injury in 2018, leading to partial brain death, but through sheer determination, I've completely recovered and continued to inspire others.” I wrote him back….” You had me at Hey Debbie!” lol   SO… here's Dan Metcalfs story. Once paralyzed during a live performance of Starlight Express in Las Vegas, doctors told Dan he'd never walk again. Instead of giving in, he rewrote the script of his life—and proved them wrong. By tapping into the brain's natural ability to heal, he discovered how to turn trauma into transformation. “Why be a victim when you can be a hero?” Dan said. “And the hero isn't for other people—it's for yourself.” Now fully recovered (after surviving two traumatic brain injuries), Dan's groundbreaking work in brain-to-body mobility training is helping over 70,000 people worldwide—including individuals with Parkinson's, MS, and seniors at risk of falling—reclaim their balance, strength, and sense of self. Dan is living proof of the extraordinary potential within us all. From performing for millions in Andrew Lloyd Webber shows to creating life-changing innovations in human performance, his journey embodies the unwavering determination and resilience we all have access to. He's trained tens of thousands—and learned from every real-life obstacle he's faced. “Turn hope into belief,” he says. “We are all born superhuman.”   Life Changing Training for Aging Longevity Dan Metcalfs' Total Balance Board system isn't about fancy equipment—it's about reactivating the miracle machine we already have: the brain. When he first created the now-patented training system, Dan had no idea just how dynamic its impact would be. At its core, Total Balance is based on the belief that no challenge is unbeatable when met with determination, creativity, and empathy. His methods are redefining what's possible in both peak performance and physical rehabilitation—at every age. “Balance is the foundation of a successful physical life,” Dan says, “and my passion lies in helping people overcome challenges with movement, stability, and confidence.”   Key Takeaways: Falls are the #1 cause of injury-related death in seniors. Dan's system helps rewire the brain to prevent them. His motto? “We don't stop playing because we age. We age because we stop playing.” He believes we all have superhuman potential—and he's living proof.   From performing for 5 million people to coaching Olympic athletes and now as a highly in demand motivational speaker, Dan Metcalf is showing the world that comeback stories aren't just possible—they're powerful. His story isn't just about survival—it's a blueprint for unlocking the extraordinary in all of us. “Never underestimate the power you have. Every challenge has a solution.” — Dan Metcalf, Born Superhuman   Catch this wildly powerful and inspiring conversation with Dan Metcalf on this week's episode of The Debbie Nigro Show!

n this episode of Psychedelics Today, kicking of Psychedelic Science 2025 week in Denver, we sit down with Jonathan Dicksinson, Chief Executive Officer, and Trevor Millar, Chief Operations Officer of Ambio Life Sciences – one of the world's leading ibogaine clinics – to explore the potential of ibogaine for addiction, neuroregeneration, and how ethics, honoring experience, and sustainability will be key to delivering ibogaine at scale.  Trevor shares his early work supporting marginalized populations in Vancouver's Downtown Eastside, which led to the founding of Liberty Root, one of Canada's first ibogaine clinics. Jonathan reflects on his apprenticeship in Mexican clinics, years of international advocacy with the Global Ibogaine Therapy Alliance, and drafting the first set of clinical guidelines for ibogaine detoxification. Together with paramedic and ibogaine safety protocols expert Jose Inzunza, they co-founded Ambio in Tijuana in 2021. They discuss: The unique safety standards Ambio has pioneered – including industry-wide clinical protocols and magnesium therapy to mitigate cardiac risk. Their scale: over 3,000 patients treated, with 100+ clients per month across five dedicated houses in Baja California. Ambio's groundbreaking neuroregenerative program for Parkinson's, MS, and traumatic brain injury – which has already drawn patients like Brett Favre and Clay Walker. How ibogaine appears to drive profound physiological change – including evidence of TBI reversal as shown in Stanford's 2024 study on Special Forces veterans. Why ibogaine isn't just a molecule – it opens a long-lasting “critical period” of neuroplasticity that must be supported with preparation, integration, and holistic care. The deeper story of sourcing: through his company Terragnosis, Jonathan is the only person with a legal export license for Tabernanthe iboga from Gabon, and Ambio is setting a precedent for reciprocal and ethical global supply chains. Their cautionary perspective on Texas' $50M push toward ibogaine clinical trials – and why the traditional “one drug, one indication” model misses the complexity and promise of psychedelic healing. They also make a compelling case that Ambio is already modeling what the future of psychedelic care should look like – not a single drug in a sterile clinical setting, but a comprehensive, integrated protocol combining preparation, medical oversight, and deep integration. “Start with the end in mind,” Trevor urges – Ambio isn't just part of the movement; it's the blueprint for how ibogaine could be delivered worldwide.

One of the world's leading experts on ibogaine, Jonathan brings over 15 years of experience in clinical care, traditional practice, and psychedelic research to his leadership at Ambio. A Mexico-licensed psychologist and former Executive Director of the Global Ibogaine Therapy Alliance, he authored the field's foundational safety guidelines and has published widely on ibogaine's therapeutic, cultural, and ecological significance. He holds the only active export license for Tabernanthe iboga root, led the first Nagoya-compliant export from Gabon, and was initiated into the Dissoumba/Fang tradition of Bwiti in 2014 and the Missoko tradition in 2022. He has co-authored peer-reviewed research on ibogaine's potential for trauma, TBI, pain, MS, and Parkinson's. At Ambio, he leads strategy, research, and innovation – advancing a globally scalable model of care that bridges tradition, science, and integrity. Trevor Millar is the Chief Operating Officer and Co-Founder of Ambio Life Sciences. A social entrepreneur and pioneer in ibogaine advocacy and treatment, Trevor brings over a decade of experience supporting individuals through addiction recovery, trauma healing, and post-treatment integration. His background includes co-founding the Canadian Psychedelic Association and serving as Chair of the Board for MAPS Canada. He has co-authored peer-reviewed research on ibogaine's applications for trauma, TBI, and opioid use disorder, and has been featured in award-winning documentaries including DOSED and In Waves and War. Grounded in personal experience and guided by a philosophical approach to healing, Trevor is helping shape a new model for ethical, integrative psychedelic care on a global scale. At Ambio, Trevor leads operations, strategic partnerships, and client experience – bridging clinical care with systems design, education, and public advocacy.

Delaying diagnosis of parkinsonism can mean delaying care. In a study recently published in JAMA Neurology, David Vaillancourt, PhD, and colleagues tested the ability of an AI model to differentiate between Parkinson disease and other neurodegenerative disorders when paired with MRI. He joins JAMA and JAMA+ AI Associate Editor Yulin Hswen, ScD, MPH to discuss.

Att kunna behandla sjukdomar som till exempel Parkinsons sjukdom med hjälp av stamceller har tagit ett stort kliv närmare att bli verklighet. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Under de senaste åren har antalet kliniska försök där så kallade stamcellsterapier testas för första gången på människor närmast exploderat. Det berättar stamcellsforskaren Malin Parmar vid Lunds universitet, som själv leder en studie där metoden testas på patienter med Parkinsons sjukdom. Pluripotenta stamceller är celler som under rätt förutsättningar kan utvecklas till i princip vilken celltyp som helst i kroppen. Förhoppningen är att de ska kunna ersätta döda eller felfungerande celler i sjukdomar som Parkinson, epilepsi och diabetes, bland annat.Reporter: Sara Sällströmsara.sallstrom@sr.seProducent: Lars Broströmlars.brostrom@sr.se

Earlier this month, the Movers and Shakers descended on Brighton in order to drum up enthusiasm for our petition.

Daniel opens by sharing how each podcast season mirrors a chapter in his life, with this one marking an awakened state. He gives a personal update: after months of worsening symptoms, he pursued evaluation for Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) surgery. The process, which required going off his meds, was physically and emotionally draining—only to be told he wasn't “miserable enough” yet. The rejection left him feeling deflated and stuck.Using the image of a plane unable to take off, Daniel conveys the emotional weight of feeling grounded by Parkinson's. He expresses frustration and helplessness, especially when comparing his own limitations to the evaluating doctor's effortless movements, emotions he's still working through.The episode moves from pain to purpose as Daniel reflects on how his diagnosis became a wake-up call. Inspired by the metaphor of a hotel wake-up call and Ben Fuller's Wide Awake, he explores what it means to live intentionally—even when that includes discomfort or grief—and urges listeners to stay awake to life.The episode explores the theme of awakening amidst struggle. Daniel reflects on a difficult personal setback—being denied eligibility for DBS surgery—and the emotional toll it took. Through raw honesty and reflection, he examines how moments of pain and frustration can also serve as powerful wake-up calls.Special thanks to Keys of the Moon, Music4Video_1, Infraction, and ashamaluevmusic for the music.Add your experience and suggestions to the conversation in this Parkinson's podcast.

There are more toxic byproducts in food dyes than in many drugs. These synthetic food colorants have never been tested long-term for biological effects in humans! Many food dyes have been banned in Europe, but are still used in the U.S. Junk food industries that sell products with food dyes are heavily self-regulated, so the FDA allows them to perform their own studies. In 2021, there was a petition to ban red dye number 3 in cosmetics because it's a carcinogen even in small amounts, but it can still be found in your child's cereal. Artificial food coloring has been shown to cause hyperactivity in children and other neurological issues. Food dyes are often used for their psychological effects. Studies have shown that people will choose to eat more of a food because of its color.Natural pigments in our food have antioxidant properties, anti-inflammatory effects, help protect your cells, and protect the mitochondria. You can also get these phytonutrients when you consume grass-fed beef or lamb. Methylene blue is a synthetic, petroleum-based food dye that benefits your health. It was one of the first drugs ever developed, and unlike other artificial food dyes, methylene blue is pharmaceutical grade. It's been used for Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, bladder infections, cancer, and more.Methylene blue is chemically different from other artificial food dyes. It helps give the body energy, even when there's damage to the mitochondria. It's beneficial for degenerative neurological disorders and reduces oxidative stress associated with cancer and mitochondrial damage. Artificial food coloring does not have the benefits of the pigments found naturally in food. They don't act as antioxidants or reduce inflammation in the body. They damage the mitochondria, and they don't have nutritional cofactors.Artificial food dyes have been linked to ADD and tumors in rats.

What if a rare disease could take someone from living independently to needing full-time care in just 3-5 years, yet most people have never heard of it? In this eye-opening episode, dementia expert Teepa Snow explains PSP (Progressive Supra-nuclear Palsy) - the "freezing disease" that causes dangerous backward falls, makes people get stuck mid-movement, and is often misdiagnosed as Parkinson's.To learn more about Positive Approach to Care, visit: www.teepasnow.com.

HER STORYDr Wahls is the clinical professor of medicine at the University of Iowa Carver College of Medicine in Iowa City, Iowa, U.S.A., where she teaches internal medicine residents in their primary care clinics. She also does clinical research and has published over 60 peer-reviewed scientific abstracts, posters, and papers. In addition to being a doctor, she is also a patient with a chronic, progressive disease. She was diagnosed with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis in 2000; around the time she began working at the university. By 2003, she had transitioned to secondary progressive multiple sclerosis. She underwent chemotherapy to slow the disease and began using a tilt-recline wheelchair because of weakness in her back muscles.It was clear: Eventually she would become bedridden by the disease and wanted to forestall that fate as long as possible.FROM SURVIVING TO THRIVINGWhen diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, Dr. Terry Wahls had two choices for the example she could set for her children. She could model giving up, or she could model that even though life's not fair, you get up every day and you do the best that you can. She chose the latter. Now, Dr. Wahls has a new mission: to create an epidemic of health and help millions of people reclaim their lives.She is the author of The Wahls Protocol®: How I Beat Progressive MS Using Paleo Principles and Functional Medicine, The Wahls Protocol®: A Radical New Way to Treat All Chronic Autoimmune Conditions Using Paleo Principles (paperback),and the cookbook The Wahls Protocol® Cooking for Life: The Revolutionary Modern Paleo Plan to Treat All Chronic Autoimmune Conditions AGENDA:Tell us your story about MS & what you learned through its course.  Talk to us about the various types of brain cells and the role they play in turning MS on or off.What does the research say about your program and the various components.How widely applicable is this type of program? Yes for MS, but what about other autoimmune conditions? Toxic conditions? Alzheimer's/ Parkinson's, etc?How has your program evolved over the years and how does it continue to evolve?If you are a person listening to this right now with MS or these other conditions, what are the most accessible points of entry to make change, to potentially change the course of your disease?What are you excited about next in research & complex/ chronic disease development?

Dr. Niotis is the Director of Parkinson's and Lew Body Dementia at the Institute for Neurodegenerative Diseases. She is the first fellowship-trained preventive neurologist specializing in risk reduction strategies for neurodegenerative disorders. She managed the first Alzheimer's Prevention Clinic at Weill Cornell Medical Center. We often hear about how little can be done once a person is diagnosed with Alzheimer's, Lew Body Dementia, or Parkinson's to reverse the progression of the disease. What is so exciting about my conversation with Dr. Niotis is that we talk about ways that we can scientifically reduce our risk of developing Alzheimer's, Lew Body, and Parkinson's. My conversation with Dr. Niotis was so in-depth that I have divided this episode into two parts! Part 1 covered statistics on these diseases, as well as the reasons for their rise, symptoms that appear YEARS before diagnosis, and genetic testing - including who is a candidate and the pros and cons of undergoing these tests. In this episode (Part 2), we talk about all of the modifiable risk factors for dementia, from monitoring your cholesterol levels to having your hearing checked to getting the shingles vaccine. It was such an eye-opening and empowering conversation.This subject is a personal one for me having my mother-in-law having dementia before she died. After this episode, I hope you, like me, will feel like you have all of the knowledge and tools to reduce and reverse your risk of developing these diseases. This is a must-listen episode!

In this episode, Ben Azadi shares five powerful, research-backed strategies to protect your brain from neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's, dementia, and Parkinson's. Prevention is the key—and it starts now.

When climber Dave Black got a new lease on life after receiving a revolutionary treatment for Parkinson's, he wanted to once again stand on the summit of the Grand Teton. A lifelong climber with 15-20 ascents on the Grand, he invited two younger climbers to join him for a push up the Exum Ridge on July 16, 2024. The events that occurred that day revealed several complex layers of high consequence adventure: decision-making, preparedness, person-to-person conflict, and the effect of a disease like Parkinson's. In this episode, Dave is joined by Lexie Hunsaker, a seasonal Jenny Lake Climbing Ranger at Grand Teton National Park, who was inserted via helicopter short-haul—at about 12,800 feet up—to assist in the response. You can learn more about the Jenny Lake Rangers and how you can support them at www.gtnpf.org/jenny-lake-rangers. This interview is by Matt Hansen. Editing and sound are by Melinda Binks.

In June 2025, Daylon and Arun attended the International Society for Stem Cell Research's (ISSCR) annual meeting in Hong Kong, and recorded daily episodes discussing highlights of the previous 24 hours. Here is the first of four episodes, where Daylon and Arun discuss updates from clinical trials for ALS, congenital heart disease, and Parkinson's disease. They also talk about the Presidential Plenary session, chaired by Dr. Valentina Greco.

GLP-1's have become a major topic in wellness circles, often discussed by celebrities, influencers, and even your neighbors. However, misinformation and incorrect dosing are prevalent. What most people (even doctors) don't realize is that proper, smaller doses of these compounds (specifically semaglutide) offer remarkable benefits for inflammation, brain health, pain relief, and overall wellness. Dr. Tyna Moore, a naturopathic physician, chiropractor, and pioneer of GLP-1 tiny dosing, reveals the not often spoken of benefits that are game-changers for midlife women's health and wellness.  In this episode, Dr. Tyna Moore explores five powerful GLP-1 benefits that go far beyond appetite suppression: their anti-inflammatory effects that calm overactive immune systems, neuroprotective properties that support brain health and reduce cognitive decline risk (including Alzheimer's and Parkinson's), pain-relieving capabilities that help with chronic conditions, cardiovascular protection that supports heart health, and even their ability to modulate addiction and reward pathways. She also explains why proper dosing is crucial for accessing these benefits without severe side effects, how GLP-1 agonists work as part of a comprehensive health strategy, and why these medications might be particularly valuable for women dealing with the inflammatory changes that accompany hormonal shifts.  Whether you're struggling with chronic pain, brain fog, autoimmune symptoms, or just want to understand all your options for optimal midlife health, this episode reveals the science behind GLP-1 benefits that could change how you think about these powerful compounds.

There are more toxic byproducts in food dyes than in many drugs. These synthetic food colorants have never been tested long-term for biological effects in humans! Many food dyes have been banned in Europe, but are still used in the U.S. Junk food industries that sell products with food dyes are heavily self-regulated, so the FDA allows them to perform their own studies. In 2021, there was a petition to ban red dye number 3 in cosmetics because it's a carcinogen even in small amounts, but it can still be found in your child's cereal. Artificial food coloring has been shown to cause hyperactivity in children and other neurological issues. Food dyes are often used for their psychological effects. Studies have shown that people will choose to eat more of a food because of its color.Natural pigments in our food have antioxidant properties, anti-inflammatory effects, help protect your cells, and protect the mitochondria. You can also get these phytonutrients when you consume grass-fed beef or lamb. Methylene blue is a synthetic, petroleum-based food dye that benefits your health. It was one of the first drugs ever developed, and unlike other artificial food dyes, methylene blue is pharmaceutical grade. It's been used for Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, bladder infections, cancer, and more.Methylene blue is chemically different from other artificial food dyes. It helps give the body energy, even when there's damage to the mitochondria. It's beneficial for degenerative neurological disorders and reduces oxidative stress associated with cancer and mitochondrial damage. Artificial food coloring does not have the benefits of the pigments found naturally in food. They don't act as antioxidants or reduce inflammation in the body. They damage the mitochondria, and they don't have nutritional cofactors.Artificial food dyes have been linked to ADD and tumors in rats. They can cause leaky gut, and their effects are worsened when combined with preservatives and other food chemicals. Some food dyes are bioaccumulative, which means they build up in the body. The kidneys effectively eliminate methylene blue, so it doesn't accumulate.Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.
