Prednisone is a commonly used medication for its antiinflammatory and immunosuppressive action. On this episode I discuss prednisone pharmacology, ADRs, and much more. In the episode, I discuss how prednisone affects the HPA system in the body. Cortisol production can be greatly impacted by long term use of prednisone. GI adverse effects can be problematic with oral prednisone which is why we often give this medication with food or milk. Hyperglycemia is a complication from the use of prednisone. I've commonly seen blood sugar spike by 50-100+ mg/dL due to this medication. Osteoporosis is a long term risk with the use of prednisone. Prednisone can also impact the benefits of vaccination. I discuss this in greater depth in the drug interactions portion of the podcast.

Dispelling the Myths about Hair Thinning as we Age.

See all the Healthcasts at https://www.biobalancehealth.com/healthcast-blog In my Anti-Aging-Longevity practice, one of the complaints my new patients tell me about is the fact that their hair is thinning, falling out or changing to a brittle texture, as well as the fact that their hair is turning grey. Hair DOES get thinner, coarser, and greyer as we age!  That is a fact, and one I can't fully explain to you, except that it happens to everyone!  My philosophy is that each of us should work with what we have, and optimize it, as well as treat any condition that makes hair loss work instead of wishing and wishing we had the hair we did when we were 25! Accepting the fact that your hair gets thinner after 40 and working with the hair you have takes knowledge to determine what is normal and what is not. Some of the things that everyone should know before looking for the best path forward to healthy hair. Aging and Slower Hair Growth Low Growth Hormone Lack of Estradiol and T in women and lack of T in men Aging causes Growth Hormone (GH) to decrease, which slows the growth of hair, fingernails, bone.  Your hair falls out at the same rate as it did when you were young, but the growth slows which results in losing more hair than you replace which thins your hair! If you started your young life with fine, thin hair, then this difference between growth and loss of hair can make your hair very thin.  To get to the root of the problem (I apologize) increasing GH will make your hair grow a bit faster. Testosterone replacement and Estradiol replacement both increase the growth of GH. Both hormone replacements increase hair thickness. Testosterone has a second benefit.  Testosterone makes your scalp oiler, which in turn increases the longevity of your hair. At menopause the lack of these two hormones causes a big change in hair thickness. Loss of hair in specific areas—Balding Genetics Scarring alopecia Androgenic alopecia Extensions Dread-locks Balding and alopecia both cause a person to lose hair follicles, not just slow the rate of hair growth.  Balding usually is genetically determined, so look at the older members of your family to determine what is in your future.  This type of hair loss is very difficult to treat. 50% of men have some balding by age 50, and 1/3 of women experience it sometime in their lives.  Until recently there was nothing to stop this process or grow more hair in those areas, however both men and women can resurrect their hair follicles (if they haven't been gone too long) and make them grow with the TED hair restoration painless ultrasound treatment by Alma. Other options are Hans Weiman hair transplants or weaves, both of which are extremely expensive, don't necessarily look natural (President Biden and his son) and must be redone every couple of years. Women can just cover over the problem with a wig, but even that answer has drawbacks—they are hot and itchy until you get used to it. Women can also get extensions to make their hair look thicker, but it ruins the quality of the hair you have which in the long run causes even more hair loss from scarring of the scalp. Women of color have traditionally used tight braids, cornrowing or dreadlocks to control their hair.  This cultural process causes them to break their hair off at the scalp and damage the hair follicle from tension, which results in hair no longer growing in multiple areas of the scalp. Change in Hair Texture and Dryness At menopause for women and when men's testosterone gets very low, we notice a change in texture of our hair. The cuticle area that covers the hair shaft becomes fragile and stops protecting the hair shaft, so the texture becomes frizzy, and hair breaks causing a dull look similar to what my mother used to call a “birds nest”. Our scalps become dry, and the oil glands dry up with age and loss of sex hormones, so hair is dry and frizzy, making us look like we just stuck our fingers in a light switch.  You can read about many “natural remedies” but beyond taking collagen, Biotin and B vitamins most supplements don't work in a dramatic way that would be noticeable. The remedies for hair loss include all the following and you will have to do most of them to improve your aging hair! Hormone replacement of Estradiol and Testosterone Conditioners (which only work a little) Hair color which covers the shaft with pigment and strengthens hair Brazilian treatment that drives straightener into the hair shaft and seals it with heat. Take supplements of Collagen every morning Take methyl B12 and Biotin daily Stop bleaching your hair Eat a diet with healthy fats and protein Wash your hair every 2-3 days Take the fat soluble vitamins A.E.K,D If you are anemic take iron supplements Avoid statins if possible   Other medical causes of frizzy, broken hair can be found in low thyroid hormones which slows hair growth, decreases oil production, and results in brittle hair all over the head. Replacing your thyroid hormones and supplementing your iodine can overcome this obstacle. All medicine changes should be managed by your doctor. Many drugs cause hair loss, and you can't change some of them: Metoprolol or any Beta blocker Blood pressure medication Prednisone and all steroids Cancer treatments Anything that inhibits your B vitamins like some autoimmune diseases What can you do to fix what you can fix! Nutrition: Hair is protein; however hair requires oil (fat) to grow and be beautiful—a diet rich in protein, and healthy fats give you the building blocks to make healthy hair and skin. Add Vitamins of A/E/K/D, vitamin C, Multi Methyl B vitamins with methyl folate and Biotin because our diets aren't perfect!   Hair care: Get hair products without sulfides.  They break hair and make it weak!  Wash your hair as little as possible. Decrease the use of hot hair tools like flat irons.  Color your hair and or Brazilian it to make it stronger. Medications not to take are listed above. But the medications to take to help your hair are your sex hormones, Estradiol, Testosterone, and make sure your DHT doesn't get too high which can cause hair loss in the male pattern. You may need Finasteride or Minoxidil if you have male pattern hair loss. Sun damage is important to maintain your hair in sunny areas.  Wear a hat or scarf when outside and comb some conditioner through your hair at the pool to “cover your hair from sun damage”.   Summary: Now that you know the possible causes and treatments for hair loss, you can do everything possible up to seeking medical care, and then medical care may be necessary. Hair thinning is often familial and also due to our estradiol and testosterone hormones decreasing after 35-40 years of age. You may need a scalp biopsy from a Dermatologist if your hair loss is in patches or severe over a short period of time, which implies an autoimmune disease. When you see a doctor be prepared with a list of your hair products, your diet, a list of medicines and a timeline for your hair loss.  This preparation will get you the best treatment per doctor visit, and your doctor will appreciate not having to ask you all those questions!

Dr. Berg’s Healthy Keto and Intermittent Fasting Podcast

All it takes is a small amount of oxidative stress to the eye's lens to develop a cataract. A healthy lens is composed of an organized protein called crystallin. When this tissue becomes damaged, it is not replaced. Glycation can damage the lens of the eye. It results from sugar connecting to a protein and then becoming stuck and unusable to the body. Steroids like Prednisone can also increase the risk of cataracts. Not all surgeries can eliminate cataracts, and they can come with complications. According to “The Cataract Cure” by Dr. Marios Kyriazis, there is a safe, effective remedy for cataracts. Carnosine is a unique compound that can penetrate the lens of the eye and help with cataracts. Carnosine is a potent antioxidant that can dissolve damaged proteins. It can also activate your own antioxidants. NAC (n-acetyl carnosine) eye drops are one of the best remedies for cataracts.In an experiment conducted at the Moscow Helmholtz Research Institute of Eye Diseases, scientists used NAC eyedrops at 1% concentration on rabbits. They found that NAC could reach the inner parts of the eye within 15 to 30 minutes. No side effects were reported during this experiment. The author concluded that NAC is a proposed eye treatment for eye disorders, including cataracts, glaucoma, corneal disorders, inflammation, and complications from diabetes.The same group of scientists who performed the rabbit studies also tested NAC on humans. They selected 49 volunteers with an average age of 65 who had established age-related cataracts. After 6 months, researchers found that:•41% of people presented a significant reduction of clouding in the lens•90% showed a gradual improvement in vision•89% showed up to a 100% improvement in sensitivity to glare NAC for cataracts must be used for at least 3 to 5 months. Antioxidants such as those found in onions, egg yolks, leafy greens, and grass-fed red meat can protect you against cataracts.Vitamin A is vital for eye health and can be found in cod liver oil and grass-fed liver. B vitamins, especially B2, B6, and folate, are also essential. BOOK LINK: https://www.amazon.com/Cataract-Cure-...

Americans are more stressed than ever before due to the pandemic, financial situations, medications, overconsumption of alcohol,imbalanced diet, poor gut health, and environmental toxins. As a result, many people are tired, depressed, have poor memory and focus, and have weakened immune systems.According to research, Boosting B vitamin levels quickly improves energy. A deficiency of just one B vitamin will negatively affect the complex production of energy (ATP) in your cells. While people usually think of Supplemental B12 for energy, one will typically get better results with a full spectrum B complex since many of the B's are involved in ATP production.Recently Dr. Mark Stengler, NMD. put out a helpful article that can be found here.Many medications deplete the body of B vitamins. Examples include acid reflux medications such as the Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs), Prednisone, Metformin, Antibiotics, Birth Control Pills, Anti-seizure medications, Antidepressants, Chemotherapy drugs such as Methotrexate, and several others. Research has shown that the elderly who take three or more medications are prone to B vitamin deficiencies such as B2, B6, Folate, and B12.Helpful ArticleLearn more about Emerald Labs Listeners of the show can save 20% with the code: Forever

Recommended Apple Cider Vinegar: https://www.fairchildsvinegar.com/ Most people are familiar with the more popular benefits of apple cider vinegar, including the following: •Supports digestion •Decreases bloating •Improves indigestion and acid reflux •Supports healthy blood sugar levels •Helps make insulin more sensitive •Decreases a fatty liver •Decreases inflammation Both good bacteria and bad bacteria can go into a dormant state. Microbes in a dormant state are protected from many environmental stresses and chemicals, especially antibiotics. Dormant microbes can survive for decades or even thousands of years! A change in environment, like a change in pH, can wake good bacteria or cause them to go dormant. Most good bacteria thrive in an acidic environment. Apple cider vinegar acidifies the environment for good microbes. Things like kombucha, pickle juice, sauerkraut, and kimchi have similar effects. Certain microbes create butyrate, which helps with insulin resistance. These microbes thrive in an acidic environment. We have a synergistic relationship with the microbes in our gut. We provide a home, and they provide immune protection, help with digestion, vitamin production, and more. By making their environment more acidic, you help activate them. H. pylori releases ammonia, which alkalizes the stomach acid. This allows it to do its damage, causing ulcers in the stomach and small intestine. C. diff, E. coli, and salmonella go into a state of dormancy when the pH drops below 6. When your immune system is suppressed, bad bacteria can come out of dormancy. Antibiotics, stress, Prednisone, and vitamin D deficiency can all suppress the immune system and activate pathogenic microbes. Adequate vitamin D in amounts of at least 10,000 IU daily may help keep pathogenic microbes in remission. Try drinking 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar in a glass of water every evening with a straw to support your beneficial microbes. Fairchild's Apple Cider Vinegar is an excellent option.

Today, we're going to take a look at the underlying cause of autoimmune disease. Your immune system has two parts: the innate immune system that you're born with and the acquired immune system that's created through a series of infections. Over time, the acquired immune system becomes stronger and offers protection against infection. The innate immune system is not the problem when it comes to autoimmune diseases. Autoimmune disorders typically involve problems with the T-regulatory cells or T-cells. Also called suppressor T-cells, these cells are the peacemakers of the immune system and stop the immune reaction when the job is done. Prednisone, the synthetic version of cortisol, is commonly used as a treatment for autoimmune diseases. Both prednisone and vitamin D have reduce inflammation, but Vitamin D empowers and enhances the immune system. Prednisone suppresses the innate and the acquired immune systems. Vitamin D shifts the immune system to increase the T-cells. Inflammatory TH1 and TH17 cells are usually too high when someone has an autoimmune disease. Vitamin D suppresses both of these cells, reducing inflammation. Prednisone raises your blood glucose levels while vitamin D does not. Vitamin D enhances the cells that makes insulin and helps to regulate your blood sugars. Prednisone can break down your bone, leading to osteoporosis. Vitamin D helps you absorb calcium and supports bone remineralization. The thymus gland makes T-cells. As we age, the thymus gland deteriorates and our immune systems decline. Vitamin D slows down this process, but you need larger, therapeutic doses. Vitamin D does not work without the cofactors magnesium, vitamin K2, and zinc. Dr. Coimbra of Brazil created a protocol that involves increasing vitamin D to penetrate any resistance. This lowers the parathyroid hormone which means that vitamin D levels have significantly increased.

Let's talk about the health benefits of turmeric. One study found that curcumin was just as effective as ibuprofen at reducing pain from arthritis without side effects! It's also shown to be as effective as aspirin. Another study showed that curcumin had comparable results to Prednisone in reducing inflammation for rheumatoid arthritis, asthma, and IBS. It has also been shown to produce antidepressant effects similar to Prozac and Zoloft. Curcumin has anti-diabetic properties and effects similar to Metformin. It also has anticoagulant properties similar to aspirin and Warfarin. Research has shown that curcumin has benefits similar to statins and can help reduce LDL cholesterol and triglycerides. One study compared curcumin to 5-fluorouracil, a chemotherapy drug. Turmeric has been shown to be as effective as anti-inflammatory drugs, especially for irritable bowel disease and digestive problems. It may also help reduce blood pressure and inhibit pathogens, especially fungi. To prepare turmeric water, combine ½ teaspoon of turmeric powder, a pinch of black pepper, and half of a lemon in a glass of warm water. To prepare golden milk, combine ½ teaspoon of turmeric, ¼ teaspoon of cinnamon, and a pinch of black pepper in a cup of milk or coconut milk. Heat the mixture and remove from heat just before it comes to a boil. You can also add turmeric to a smoothie with berries and kefir. If you have a cough, try drinking a cup of hot water with a teaspoon of turmeric and a tablespoon of raw honey.

DOWNLOAD THE WALLET CUTOUT CARD HERE: https://bit.ly/3TsJJ8s In this podcast, I'm going to tell you how to reshape your face naturally and get rid of a moon face. One of the most common symptoms of Cushing's syndrome is a “moon face.” Cushing's syndrome is characterized by high levels of the stress hormone cortisol. Chronic high cortisol over a period of time can cause fat face syndrome. It can also be caused by the drug Prednisone. Cortisol can redistribute fat to different parts of the body, causing you to store fat in the face and the midsection. Over time, it can cause a hump on the back, red cheeks, thinner legs, and weak muscles in the legs and buttocks. Your cholesterol and lipids may rise, and you'll start losing potassium and retaining sodium. This sends your blood pressure straight up, vitamin D levels decrease, and your immune system suffers. Cortisol indirectly causes a puffy face by breaking down protein and turning it into glucose. This spikes insulin, a fat-storing hormone. In the presence of too much insulin, you won't be able to lose fat. Carbohydrates, frequent eating, seed oils, nutrient deficiencies, stress, overexercising, and certain medications also trigger insulin. Try these 5 tips to reshape your face. 1. Eat less frequently Cut out the snacks between the meals and do intermittent fasting. This forces your body to use body fat as fuel between meals. 2. Change your diet Cut down your carb intake, specifically avoiding sugar and starch. Print my card cutout that shows you the ingredients to avoid! 3. Increase protein Look for high-quality grass-fed meat such as beef, lamb, or goat. 4. Lower stress levels Go for long walks, exercise, and do physical work. Avoid excessive phone use. 5. Try to get extra sleep Make sure you're getting enough sleep. Even if you wake up early, try to go back to sleep if possible!

Dr. Berg’s Healthy Keto and Intermittent Fasting Podcast

Today, I'm going to share a few natural sciatica pain remedies! The sciatic nerve is the longest and largest nerve in the body. It extends from the lower back, down the back of the leg, to the bottom of the foot. Surgery for sciatica can cause side effects like failed back surgery syndrome. Because 90% of sciatica pain will often resolve by itself, invasive procedures are best saved as a last resort. Sciatic pain often gets worse in the winter, which would explain why vitamin D deficiency is a major contributor. If you're dealing with inflammation, you need high amounts of vitamin D daily. Vitamin D is a potent anti-inflammatory and works similarly to Prednisone without the side effects. It helps to repair the nerves, disc, connective tissue, and muscles involved with sciatica. Magnesium deficiency can also contribute to sciatica because it's essential for keeping your muscles relaxed. You also need adequate magnesium for vitamin D to work in the body. Vitamin B12 is involved with several aspects of the nervous system and can cause numbness, tingling, and burning pain if you're deficient. It's highly anti-inflammatory, and a deficiency can also contribute to sciatica. Most people don't get enough sun, so unless you're taking 10,000 IU of vitamin D each day, you could end up deficient. If you have sciatica, try upping your dose of vitamin D3 to 20,000 to 30,000 IU daily. Around 800 mg of magnesium each day can be beneficial for sciatica. Sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, chocolate, almonds, leafy greens, bone broth, and spinach are good food sources of magnesium. Red meat and other animal products provide plenty of vitamin B12. Try these simple sciatica exercises focused on stretching the fascia to say goodbye to your sciatic nerve pain!

Prednisone is a corticosteroid that may cause hyperglycemia, insomnia, GI upset, osteoporosis, HPA suppression, and hypertension as primary adverse effects. Raloxifene is classified as a SERM and can be used for osteoporosis and breast cancer. DVT and hot flashes are significant adverse effect concerns. Fish oil (Lovaza) is used to reduce triglycerides. Elevated triglycerides can increase the risk of pancreatitis. Ezetimibe inhibits the absorption of cholesterol through the gut. It lowers LDL but not to the extent of statins. Phenytoin is a narrow therapeutic index medication (NTI) that is used as an anticonvulsant. Ataxia, confusion, GI upset, and vertical nystagmus are potential signs of toxicity.

In this JCO Article Insights episode, Alexandra Rojek provides a summary on "Romidepsin Plus Cyclophosphamide, Doxorubicin, Vincristine, and Prednisone Versus Cyclophosphamide, Doxorubicin, Vincristine, and Prednisone in Patients With Previously Untreated Peripheral T-Cell Lymphoma: Final Analysis of the Ro-CHOP Trial" by Camus et al published February 16th, 2024 and the associated editorial written by Dr. Mehta-Shah and Dr. Horwitz. TRANSCRIPT The guest on this podcast episode has no disclosures to declare. Alexandra Rojek: Hello and welcome to JCO Article Insights. I'm your host, Alexandra Rojek, and today we will be discussing a clinical trial update published in the May 10th issue of JCO addressing the long term follow up of the addition of romidepsin to CHOP chemotherapy for previously untreated peripheral T-cell lymphoma, or PTCL. This report by Camus et al discusses a five-year follow up of the original Ro-CHOP trial, which did not meet its primary endpoint of progression free survival. The original Ro-CHOP study, conducted by the LYSA group, was published in 2021 in JCO and was conducted as a one-to-one randomized phase III study of Ro-CHOP versus CHOP for patients aged 18 to 80 years with PTCL. 98 international centers were included, and the study enrolled patients between 2013 and ‘17. Nodal follicular helper T-cell, or TFH lymphoma was defined in this study follow-up as a PTCL expressing at least two of five TFH markers according to the latest classifications. The study's primary endpoint was PFS with secondary endpoints of OS and duration of response, or DOR. Five year follow up was reached in December 2022. In the original study report, the addition of romidepsin to CHOP did result in a reduction of dose intensity of chemotherapy. However, in this updated follow up, there were no new safety signals reported. A total of 421 patients were enrolled in the trial with a median age of 65 years. Notably, those who were randomized to the Ro-CHOP arm had a higher proportion of IPI 4-5 scores at 33%, versus 24% of those who were assigned to CHOP alone despite randomization. Nearly half of patients carried a histologic diagnosis of angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma. 30% were characterized as PTCL NOS, not otherwise specified, 10% ALK negative anaplastic large cell lymphoma, leaving 13% reported as other. Over 60% of patients had stage four disease at enrollment, with nearly half having more than two sites of extranodal involvement. Median follow up was six years with a median PFS of 12 months for Ro-CHOP and 10.2 months for CHOP, which did not reach statistical significance as reported in the original study publication. Estimated five year OS available as a part of this clinical trial update was 50% for Ro-CHOP and 43% for CHOP alone, and also did not reach significance. There was, however, a longer duration of response observed in the Ro-CHOP arm at 52 months versus 24 months for CHOP, which is a new finding in this extended follow up of the study. In an effort to better understand whether there are subgroups which may benefit from romidepsin despite the overall negative outcome of this study, the authors are able to provide new insights from this Ro-CHOP study in line with our current and updated understanding of PTCL. When the authors evaluated the study population for subgroups which may benefit from addition of romidepsin, TFH lymphomas, which included angioimmunoblastic, follicular, and NOS subtypes, were noted to have an improved response to the addition of this HDAC inhibitor. This subgroup, numbering 201 patients, experienced a mean PFS of over 19 months with Ro-CHOP versus over 10 months for those who received CHOP, and this difference achieved statistical significance. Similarly, there was a higher complete response rate and longer duration of response for those in the TFH subgroup who received romidepsin. The authors also make note that those patients in this subgroup with high IPI appeared to particularly benefit. However, those in the PTCL NOS group who did not fit the TFH subtype experienced poor outcomes with shorter PFS and OS as compared to other histologic subtypes, which is in line with other reported data in the field. The authors in this update also report on treatments and outcomes after first progression or relapse of disease, which includes a total of 274 patients, of whom 251 received second line therapy. The median PFS in OS after progression or relapse was only 3.3 months and 11.5 months, respectively, and again, patients with the TFH subtype experienced a longer median OS than other included histologies. Only 8% of patients proceeded to undergo autologous stem cell transplantation overall, and 5% underwent allogeneic stem cell transplantation. While the authors note that they did not observe any notable outcome differences between various included second line therapies, they do note of a possible benefit of the antibody drug conjugate brentuximab vedotin or BV in combination with chemotherapy backbones. Those who received a BV containing regimen in the second line experienced a better CR rate and a longer PFS, too. However, the OS too was not significantly different. Again, the authors note that most of the benefit of the addition of BV to chemotherapy in the second line appeared focused on this TFH lymphoma subgroup. Of note, CD30 status was not recorded as a part of the study for included patients and could not be further reported on. The findings of the authors present in this subgroup analysis of the negative Ro-CHOP study seek to find benefit in future lessons for patients with these rare lymphomas who do not have a multitude of effective treatments available to them. The subgroup benefit in this clinical trial update based on the TFH phenotype fits our evolving understanding of PTCL in the modern era. Mutations characteristic of the TFH subgroup, in this case often involved in chromatin modification and the tumor microenvironment, have been linked to improved responses when treating with epigenetic targeting drugs such as romidepsin, thus making the findings of TFH lymphoma in the Ro-CHOP trial confirmatory of what we would expect from correlative studies. Despite the benefit of Ro-CHOP for those with TFH lymphoma, this updated analysis of a major frontline study of PTCL highlights the critical need in the T-cell lymphoma field to, first of all, better understand and separate what we have come to recognize as the heterogeneous diseases historically lumped together as PTCL. This historic classification, based on a lack of deeper molecular understanding of disease biology is unlikely to represent the true biologic diversity of its component subtypes, including the focus on TFH lymphoma presented here. The second critical unmet need, which this subgroup analysis highlights, is the need to investigate the benefit of new therapeutic agents in these distinct subgroups of PTCL, where the need for improved survival outcomes is sorely needed when examining historical outcomes with currently available therapies, both in the frontline setting as well as those in the relapsed refractory group. The associated editorial, written by Dr. Mehta-Shah and Dr. Horwitz, elegantly discusses the challenges of designing studies in rare diseases such as PTCL, which are both biologically informed as well as appropriately powered. As the authors discuss, it is rare to get a second chance for a drug, as is the case for romidepsin, where these negative results led to its voluntary withdrawal in PTCL, affecting availability of the drug for patients in the relapsed setting, as well as future clinical trials, which could have had potential for success. Additionally, better understanding of the biological underpinnings of PTCL needs to lead to better designed and appropriately powered clinical trials, as these subsets of patients are in great need of therapeutic advances. While none of these tasks is easy nor straightforward, this clinical trial update of the RoCHOP study suggests a path forward from learning from prior, promising yet failed attempts at moving the standard of care for frontline therapy of T-cell lymphoma forward.

In this podcast, we're going to look at the root causes of inflammation and the best natural remedies for inflammation. Here are 10 common causes of inflammation. 1. Gluten consumption and food allergies Gluten can lead to a leaky gut, a condition where food particles leak through the small intestine. Leaky gut is one of the most common causes of inflammation. Pinpointing a food allergy can also help clear up gut inflammation. 2. Ultra-processed food ingredients Ultra-processed foods like synthetic sugars, modified food starches, and seed oils go through several industrial processes to the point that they no longer resemble their original form. These foods cause free-radical damage and inflammation in the body. 3. Viruses Viruses can go in and out of remission, causing inflammatory conditions that come and go. This is often triggered by stress which increases your cortisol levels, suppressing your immune system. Viruses can also block vitamin D. 4. Insulin resistance Frequent eating and carb consumption leads to insulin resistance. Most of the population is insulin-resistant. 5. Lack of cortisol Chronic stress over a long period and medications like Prednisone can lead to cortisol resistance. 6. Old injuries Lack of movement and a sedentary lifestyle can lead to inflammation. 7. Sludge in bile ducts Without adequate bile salts, bile sludge can back up into the liver causing right shoulder pain and rhomboid pain. This can be corrected by a healthy diet. 8. Too much iron This is typically caused by a genetic issue and is more common in men. 9. Hypoxia Conditions like COPD, cirrhosis of the liver, clogged arteries, and sleep apnea can cause hypoxia—a lack of oxygen. 10. Uric acid Uric acid is one of the most common causes of high blood pressure and comes from high fructose consumption. Here are the best remedies for inflammation: •Kefir, sauerkraut, kimchi, or a probiotic •Vitamin D3 •Intermittent fasting and periodic prolonged fasting •Cruciferous vegetables and salads •Keto diet •Carnivore diet •TUDCA •Tocotrienols •Cold therapy •Stretching and exercise •Omega-3 fatty acids (cod liver oil, sardines, salmon)

In this podcast, we're going to talk about candida overgrowth. Candida is a fungal infection that typically affects the mouth, private areas, or toenails. Candida often develops after antibiotics destroy the bacteria that keep yeast and fungus at bay. The majority of your gut microbiome is bacteria. However, you have a small percentage of yeast, fungus, and friendly candida. When antibiotics wipe out your friendly bacteria, this leaves room for candida overgrowth. Some of the symptoms of candida overgrowth include itchiness, burning, fatigue, cracks at the corners of the mouth, and ammonia odor. Candida changes your pH, making it more alkaline. Sugar is the primary fuel source of candida. Other conditions can lower your immune system and cause candida overgrowth. HIV/AIDS, organ transplants, medications like Prednisone, pregnancy, and excessive sugar consumption can all cause candida. Oftentimes, candida overgrowth is paired with a vitamin D deficiency. Vitamin D has antifungal properties and is also a broad-spectrum antimicrobial. If you have candida, there are three things that you need to do! 1. Take 20,000 to 30,000 IU of vitamin D 2. Remove sugar from the diet 3. Consume probiotic foods (sauerkraut, kimchi, kefir, fermented vegetables) DATA: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science... https://vitamindwiki.com/tiki-index.p...

Every year, a few times a year, I have a bad reaction to poison ivy. This time, it has affected my eye. Each time I was exposed and had a bad reaction, I was given prednisone. It got to the point where, after I was exposed, the effects of the poison ivy wouldn't go away after using prednisone. People typically take prednisone for its anti-inflammatory or immune suppressant effects. But prednisone has side effects. Prednisone is a synthetic version of cortisol. Cortisol has benefits. It's a hormone that helps the immune system and prepares the body for stress. But high cortisol levels can lead to a lot of health concerns. You don't want to be on prednisone forever. The more you take it, the more it weakens the system. But if you stop taking it, your symptoms may come back. So, why don't we get to the root problem? Keep in mind that once you start taking prednisone, it's important not to come off of it too fast. Prednisone and cortisol also deplete the body of numerous vitamins and minerals. The best ways to lower cortisol: 1. Lower your stress (do physical work, exercise, spend more time on a hobby, and take certain nutrients) 2. Take ashwagandha 3. Try breathing exercises 4.

EP12 - Metal Allergies & Breast Implant Illness w/Dr. Corrie Materie, DC Dr. Corrie Materie was a Chiropractor with a thriving Canadian practice until she was sidelined by breast cancer and thoroughly disabled due to allergies and toxicity from bi-lateral breast reconstruction after her total mastectomy.  Dr. Materie had a long history of reactivity to metals dating all the way back to her earliest childhood recollections. This included ear-piercings and a massive reaction to just the surgical instruments once her tonsils were removed. It even escaped her awareness that metal was the culprit when she had worsening reactions as she played the flute in school and Dr.'s called it “Impetigo”, despite the fact that her flute was clean and she did not heal until a physican expressed that it might be nickel, advising tape over the portion that contacted her mouth….problem solved.  While in chiropractic college, way back in 1996, she began to experience mysterious health symptoms, eventually becoming able to tie the maladies to mercury fillings, and they resolved near immediately once removed. Yet, even her colleagues and caregivers rolled their eyes at her “crazy notions”.  Every surgery seemed to land her in the midst of turmoil, taking her twice as long to heal, with many times the normal complication rate, and sometimes even life-threatening sepsis. She shares multiple surgical examples with her as the guinea pig. Eventually she was prescribed Prednisone prior to surgical procedures and it held symptoms at bay temporarily.  Questioning healthcare providers about the potential of metal allergies, Dr. Materie was dismissed time and time again. She did figure out she had a methylation defect (MTHFR mutation), which affected detox pathways, and for a time just resigned herself to that as the root cause.  Enter cancer and breast reconstruction surgery post-mastectomy, Dr. Materie wakes from anesthesia a changed woman. After the Prednisone wore off she had severe cardiac and blood pressure issues, sweats, swelling, pain, inflammation and the development of a Parkinson's-like tremor. Dr.'s ran every test under the sun. All results  normal.  On a whim, Dr. Materie went to the website for her Allergan breast implants to find a long list of metals and petrochemicals within the various parts of the prosthesis. It appeared she had her answer, along with the answer for why her skin was off-gassing a foul chemical smell that only she could notice.  At just 11 weeks post-op, the breast implants were explanted and the majority of Dr. Materie's symptoms cleared immediately. You don't want to miss the rest of the story! In this episode you will learn: How a material that looks as plain as silicone can be infused with harmful & even deadly metals and petrochemicals. Even when explanted, toxic byproducts can remain in the capsules left behind.  About metal compounds in chemotherapy agents.  ~Links and Resources~ To see the images that accompany this episode click HERE.  ~To learn more visit HeavilyMetalled.com. ~ Check out the “Heavily Metalled” resource page: https://www.heavilymetalled.com/resources ~ Follow Heavily Metalled on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/HeavilyMetalled ~ Follow Heavily Metalled on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/heavilymetalled/ ~ Subscribe to Heavily Metalled on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@HeavilyMetalled ~ Check out our sponsor MELISA.org ***Many WONDERFUL, supportive special-interest communities exist for metal allergies and diet, hardware issues, medical devices, etc., online and on social media.

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend! I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks…   Kate: What to do for very large 9cm & 8cm fibroids?   Sidney: Hi doctor Cabral, I have a thick, deformed toenail and the skin around it often gets inflamed, and hurts a lot. I read that the only thing that helps is removing the nail altogether, but I would rather keep it. Is there any way to make it healthy again, or to stop it hurting as much? Thanks so much for you answer! Best, Sidney   Kristin: I've been suffering from hives for a year. They started with what I thought was a spider bite on my scalp. A few weeks later I started getting itchy red hives all over my body. I have seen my general practitioner, dermatologist and allergist. I did a ton of bloodwork and they couldn't find any underlying issues or allergies. Prednisone cleared it up, but came right back when stopped. Zyrtec (at first 4 a day, now just 1 a day) cleared up the body hives, but heat and tight clothing bring them back. The itchy bumps on my scalp have never gone away. I have tried apple cider vinegar, avocado oil, coconut oil. I changed bedding, shampoos, etc. I don't know what else to do. Do you have any advice?   Eric: Hi Dr. Cabral. I'm a 64-year-old male that has struggled for many years with urinary tract problems (urinary tract stricture as a child that was surgically treated, recurring bouts of urinary tract irritation from various substances and stress, but never any indication of a UTI). Over the past several months I've been doing infrared sauna sessions 2X per week, which seems to make my urinary tract problems worse. I use a binder before each sauna session. Two questions: (1) Can a sauna session trigger a large jump in toxins being processed through the kidneys/urinary tract, including oxalate dumping (I'm high in oxalates on the OAT test)? (2) How would you suggest one treat irritation symptoms (raw feeling) in the urethra/bladder area? Thanks!   Jessi: I've searched the podcasts and can't find that you have ever spoken about the SAAT procedure specifically used for Alpha gal reactions. I've read several testimonials that it has greatly benefited people dealing with this frustrating affliction. Thank you for all your free resources and I'm looking forward to hearing your opinion on this subject.    Thank you for tuning into this weekend's Cabral HouseCalls and be sure to check back tomorrow for our Mindset & Motivation Monday show to get your week started off right!   - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/2704 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?

Episode 2227 - On this Saturday's show, we replay the first time Vinnie Tortorich speaks to Dr. Jason Fung and they discuss his book , insulin and weight loss, metabolic syndrome, intermittent fasting, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/best-of-insulin-weight-loss-dr-jason-fung-episode-2227 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS INSULIN & WEIGHT LOSS Vinnie welcome Dr. Jason Fung, who is a kidney specialist. (2:05) He works often with type 2 diabetics -- the biggest cause of kidney nephropathy. Type 2 is linked closely with obesity. Insulin has negative effects.   Vinnie tells Dr. Fung about his visit to his hometown of Donaldsonville. (7:05) Everyone he met was on multiple medications. They all had some kind of sugary drink in their hands. They discuss how obesity is misunderstood; it is linked with several diseases and is often a part of metabolic syndrome. (8:00) Dr. Fung recommends . (9:00) Sugar is the enemy, not calories! Calories In, Calories Out (CICO) doesn't work or even make sense. (9:10) When you eat fewer calories, your energy expenditure (and thus fat/fuel usage) goes down. You simply get hungrier. It takes time to lose weight. Lots of things raise insulin, not just sugars and grains. (19:40) Insulin resistance leads to higher insulin levels. INTERMITTENT FASTING A key way to break insulin resistance is intermittent fasting. (23:20) Intermittent fasting should happen every day--Dr. Fung explains. (27:50) Having snacks doesn't allow your body to process all the hormones properly. (29:00) Shorter fasts aren't really enough. Dr. Fung explains the various fasting methods he recommends, even longer ones under medical supervision. Body switches to fat burning. (33:15) Obesity is a hormonal imbalance, not a caloric one. (42:00) Cortisol is a stress hormone -- encourages getting fat. Prednisone is a synthetic form of cortisol. Leptin is produced by fat cells and regulates how much fat is in the body If you have lots of fat, leptin is released and tells your brain to stop gaining more weight. When you are quite fat, your body stops responding to leptin. Leptin is a secondary hormone, so it doesn't pass the causal test. Ghrelin is another one of these secondary hormones; as a result, no lasting effect so doesn't pass the causal test either. Vinnie and Dr. Fung discuss a bit more about why CICO doesn't work. (45:00) Type 2 diabetes can be reversed in most cases; however, you can't treat a disease of having too much insulin by giving more insulin! (51:45) They give great comparisons as examples. There needs to be a grassroots movement for changes in the system; there are too many conflicts of interest with people who want to keep the meds going and how they fund things like universities.
