September brings a change in seasons—and, after more than 30 years in practice, Dr. Steven Davis has noticed it also brings some very predictable questions from patients. In this episode of The Plastic Surgery Revolution, Dr. Davis discusses three areas that tend to receive more attention as summer winds down: changing skin lesions, post-summer skin rejuvenation, and hair thinning or hair loss. First, Dr. Davis explains why changes in a skin lesion shouldn't simply be ignored. Changes in pigmentation, growth, itching, bleeding, or a lesion that returns after previously being treated are all reasons to have the area appropriately evaluated. Regular dermatologic skin checks remain important, particularly when something has noticeably changed. Next, he turns to one of the most popular post-summer treatments at Davis Cosmetic Plastic Surgery: laser resurfacing. Months of sun exposure can leave behind pigmentation, freckles, textural changes, and visible sun damage on the face, neck, décolleté, hands, and other exposed areas. Different laser technologies can address different concerns and help refresh the appearance and quality of the skin. Finally, Dr. Davis discusses another concern that often comes into focus this time of year: hair loss and thinning. Hair restoration doesn't automatically mean hair transplant surgery. Depending on the type and extent of hair loss, today's options may include PRP, regenerative treatments, light-based therapies, and other non-surgical approaches designed to support scalp and hair health. When an area has experienced more significant hair loss, transplantation may provide another option by relocating viable hair follicles from one area of the scalp to another. The takeaway? September can be an ideal time to reassess what changed over the summer and start thinking about your skin and hair differently as you head into fall.

Why do kids almost never get osteoarthritis, despite putting their joints through far more than any adult does? I joined entrepreneur Mike Cormier on his show to unpack that question, along with stem cells for addiction, brain trauma, and hair loss with no clear treatment path.I explain how mesenchymal stem cells, sourced from fat, bone marrow, or umbilical cord tissue, travel through the bloodstream to support tissue repair and immune function when delivered by IV. Osteoarthritis reflects a decline in the body's regenerative capacity, not simple wear and tear. I cover an animal study showing a 70 to 80% reduction in relapse behavior among alcohol dependent rats treated with stem cells, and an ongoing clinical study using SPECT imaging to evaluate traumatic brain injury. I also detail my personal peptide protocol: BPC-157, Tesamorelin, Ipamorelin, CJC-1295, Epitalon, microdosed GLP-1, and GHK-Cu for skin structure.Mike traces his hair loss to years of business related stress, describing patches spreading across his scalp and eyebrows and the recovery protocol he built himself: PRP, BPC-157, red light therapy, and microneedling. I share a parallel case from my clinic, where IV stem cells regrew a physician's hair after a service related infection.It's a wide ranging look at how regenerative medicine adapts to what the body actually needs, whether that's a joint, a damaged brain, or hair that wouldn't grow back.Key Takeaways:00:47 From psychiatry to stem cells04:04 How stem cells build organs06:06 Mesenchymal stem cells and sources10:22 IV infusion versus local injection13:41 Why Dr. Joy built skincare22:32 Stem cells cut alcohol relapse24:21 Reversing brain damage from addiction26:00 Favorite peptides for muscle gain29:41 Cycling peptides and testing NAD34:52 What stem cell skincare involves37:58 Healing alopecia through gut health55:10 Extending human lifespan twenty yearsAdditional Resources✨ Follow Mike Cormier on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mikecormieronair/ ✨ Follow The Inner Circle Studio on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theinnercirclestudio/ ✨ Subscribe to The Inner Circle On Air on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheInnerCircleOnAir Visit My Clinic: Chara Health
Dr. Jeremy Alland is the head primary care team physician for the Chicago Bulls and also works with the White Sox and Chicago Fire, but he never planned on being a doctor at all. He was doing lab research in college and assumed he'd end up in pharmaceuticals, until he realized he got his energy from people instead of petri dishes. He talks about finding non-operative sports medicine almost by accident, and the six years he spent with the G League's Windy City Bulls before getting called up to the NBA.In this episode, we discuss what caring for professional athletes actually looks like day to day, where regenerative medicine and PRP really stand right now, why strength training is the most effective thing in all of orthopedics, and what's happened to youth sports over the past twenty years.Check out Dr. Alland on social media

** PLEASE PARDON THE TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES IN THE LAST TWO MINUTES OF THIS EPISODE **In this week's episode of The Armor Men's Health Show, Donna Lee and Dustin Fontenot, PA-C, tackle a listener question about delayed ejaculation and whether PRP (platelet-rich plasma) treatment might help.Our listener is a healthy 50-year-old who takes 5 mg of Cialis daily but is STILL experiencing delayed ejaculation with his stunning wife. He says they can have sex for several hours at a time, up to six times a week, but the sensation just isn't what it used to be.Wowza! That is a LOT of sex!
In this episode of Beauty Bytes with Dr. Kay: Secrets of a Plastic Surgeon, I am joined by Dr. Koji Tanabe, a leading stem cell scientist, founder and CEO of iPeace, and one of the researchers behind the landmark development of human induced pluripotent stem cells, or iPSCs. Dr. Tanabe breaks down the science of Yamanaka factors and explains how mature cells can be reprogrammed into a younger, pluripotent state with the ability to develop into many different cell types. We explore how iPSC technology differs from traditional stem cells, PRP, exosomes, and other regenerative treatments, as well as why creating and quality-checking these cells outside the body may offer important advantages over attempting cellular reprogramming directly inside the body. Dr. Tanabe also shares how iPSC-derived cells are being explored in regenerative applications involving heart failure, Parkinson's disease, spinal cord injury, and other areas of medicine. We dive into the future of personalized cell banking, why he believes it may be beneficial to preserve cells while you are healthy, and how iPSC-derived factors, or iPSF, are being explored for skin rejuvenation, hair restoration, and systemic longevity treatments. The iPSF treatments discussed in this episode are currently available only in Japan and are not available in the United States at this time due to differences in regulatory standards. From cellular aging and DNA mutations to epigenetic clocks, regenerative medicine, and the difference between lifespan and healthspan, this conversation offers a fascinating look at how cellular reprogramming could change the way we approach aging, disease, and the future of personalized medicine.Clarification: During the discussion of iPSC-derived therapies for heart failure, the conversation referenced the possibility of creating patient-specific, autologous iPSC-derived cells. The currently approved application discussed in this episode is allogeneic, not autologous. Dr. Tanabe was referring to the potential for iPSC technology to be developed for personalized autologous applications.Guest Information: Dr. Koji Tanabe is a stem cell scientist and the founder and CEO of iPeace. He spent eight years conducting research at Kyoto University in Nobel laureate Dr. Shinya Yamanaka's laboratory and was the second author on the landmark 2007 paper describing the generation of human induced pluripotent stem cells. His work focuses on cellular reprogramming, regenerative medicine, personalized iPSC manufacturing, and the potential use of iPSC technology in longevity and future cell-based therapies.

Episode 205: Pet Shop Boys – Please (1986) – Part 3 Brian and Sarah are back at their microphones to continue their discussion of Please, the debut album by the Pet Shop Boys. In Part 2, our hosts discussed the first two songs on the album. The next song up for discussion is "Opportunities (Let's Make Lots of Money)," which, like the track before it, had two different versions released. However, unlike "West End Girls," neither version of "Opportunities" was produced by Bobby O. "Opportunities" also had two videos released, and interestingly, each host was more familiar with a different video. Brian and Sarah talk about all three versions of the song (to include the version recorded with Bobby O), both videos, and the single's interesting chart history, which includes a run as recent as 2021. During this discussion, several movies are mentioned too: Midnight Cowboy, Wise Blood, and Raiders of the Lost Ark. After a thorough examination of "Opportunities," our hosts move on to track four, which is yet another single. "Love Comes Quickly" differs from the preceding songs, however, in that only one version was released. Sarah shares a Smash Hits review of the song written by someone in another PRP-approved band, which Brian is quite happy to hear. A discussion of "Love Comes Quickly" would be incomplete without mentioning the iconic single sleeve, featuring Chris Lowe in a "BOY" hat. And of course, the video for this song is covered as well, including the declaration from one of its directors that the video was "a complete disaster." Putting aside the video, both hosts agree that "Love Comes Quickly" is a beautiful song, and they talk about the fact that Neil and Chris think so too, even to this day. But as much as Brian loves the PSB version of the song, he reveals there's one person he wished would have recorded a cover. Who is this mystery artist? You'll have to listen to find out!

Stem cells are being used and marketed around the world—but what's actually allowed, what does the science say, and how can patients separate promising regenerative medicine from expensive hype?On this episode of Sugar Crush: The Rest of the Story, Dr. Rick Jacoby welcomes an unusual co-host - “Chat" - for a wide-ranging conversation about the evolving world of stem cells and regenerative medicine.Dr. Rick explores the differences between FDA Sections 351 and 361, minimally manipulated tissue, homologous use, Wharton's jelly, emerging MUSE cells, PRP, bone marrow-derived treatments, and other regenerative approaches. The conversation also goes global, comparing regulatory environments in the United States, Canada, Mexico, the United Kingdom, Japan, Panama, and beyond. They also tackle the booming world of stem-cell medical tourism: Why do patients travel internationally for treatment? Does a higher price mean a better therapy? What questions should consumers ask before choosing a clinic? And how can patients distinguish between what's being advertised and what has actually been demonstrated through research? Finally, Dr. Rick shares his own experiences with regenerative treatments and looks at the continuum from PRP and traditional approaches to newer cell-based therapies—while emphasizing the importance of understanding the evidence, regulatory status, potential costs, and available options before making a decision.

Episode 206 of Wrestling Tonight begins with one of the biggest "what ifs" surrounding John Cena's retirement run. Adam Copeland says he believes Tony Khan would have allowed him to step outside AEW for one final Edge vs. Cena match in WWE. Copeland made it clear that nothing was ever formally proposed, Tony was never actually asked and WWE never officially rejected the idea, but his belief is that AEW would not have been the obstacle. It is especially interesting because Cena and Edge were so important to one another's careers, and a final match could have been more than nostalgia. It could have been one of those rare moments where WWE and AEW put the promotional rivalry aside for something that made sense historically. We look at whether it was ever realistic, what Tony allowing it would have meant for the relationship between the two companies and why one of the most obvious matches for Cena's farewell never got beyond the hypothetical stage. We then turn to AEW, where Kenny Omega and Will Ospreay have made their All In match increasingly personal. The story has become about far more than simply determining who the better wrestler is, with their history stretching back through PWG, New Japan and Ospreay's years of being compared to the standard Omega established before him. That rivalry now intersects with Ospreay's return from neck fusion surgery and his attempt to prove that he has finally surpassed Omega. Their sit-down with Renee Paquette revisited Omega questioning whether Ospreay ever truly replaced him and the lingering issue of Ospreay needing Don Callis' involvement to defeat Kenny at Forbidden Door. Omega then crossed another line by bringing Ospreay's family into the discussion before ultimately putting him through a table with the One-Winged Angel. With Ospreay back in front of his home crowd at Wembley after everything surrounding his surgery and recovery, AEW has turned this into one of the most important matches of his career. Pat McAfee's WWE future also appears increasingly clear. More than a year after stepping away from Raw commentary because of burnout, McAfee has added another major ESPN responsibility by joining Monday Night Countdown throughout the NFL season. His daily show will also broadcast from the site of Monday Night Football each week while he continues working College GameDay on Saturdays. McAfee has now reiterated that he does not intend to return to WWE television following the WrestleMania 42 stipulation where Cody Rhodes defeating Randy Orton meant McAfee would leave WWE programming for good. He even acknowledged that he may have been wrong about Cody after spending the storyline attacking him. Wrestling stipulations can always be undone, but between McAfee's comments and an ESPN schedule that now consumes both Saturdays and Mondays throughout football season, a regular WWE return looks increasingly unlikely. Josh Alexander is also moving closer to an in-ring return just over four months after undergoing knee surgery. Alexander resurfaced on Maple Leaf Pro Wrestling Mayhem and confronted Stu Grayson, teasing the eventual unification of MLP's Canadian Championship. Alexander has remained champion throughout his injury while Grayson became interim champion, giving them a ready-made program whenever Alexander receives clearance. No date has been announced, but MLP's Northern Rising on October 3 in Toronto would be a logical destination if Alexander is ready. The return is particularly meaningful considering Alexander has spoken about how disappointing it was to be unable to fulfill his responsibilities as champion after becoming the inaugural Canadian Champion following Scott D'Amore's relaunch of the promotion. On the WWE injury front, Logan Paul appears to be making progress from the torn triceps that required surgery after Saturday Night's Main Event in May. Paul recently visited Champion Sports Medicine in Birmingham, with Kevin Wilk saying he is looking good following surgery and eager to return to the ring. Paul himself has been more cautious, recently describing himself as still "very much injured" while saying that he is healing quickly and undergoing PRP treatment as part of the rehabilitation process. WWE has kept him involved on television during the recovery, while The Vision continued without him and Bron Breakker stepped into the tag team picture alongside Austin Theory. There is still no confirmed return date, but the latest update suggests Paul is progressing toward eventually getting back in the ring. Jim Johnston also believes the door to a WWE return is essentially closed. Johnston says he would happily compose wrestling themes again but believes Triple H views him as one of Vince McMahon's guys and has little interest in bringing him back. That is Johnston's interpretation rather than something Triple H has publicly confirmed, but it creates an interesting conversation about one of the most criticized aspects of WWE's current presentation. Johnston's greatest strength was creating music that immediately communicated who a wrestler was before they ever reached the ring. WWE does not necessarily need to turn its entire music department back over to Johnston, but completely ignoring someone responsible for so many instantly recognizable themes is worth discussing when modern entrance music continues to struggle to create that same connection. And finally, 31 years ago this week, Cactus Jack and Terry Funk produced one of the defining matches in the history of deathmatch wrestling at IWA Japan's Kawasaki Dream. Nearly 29,000 fans packed Kawasaki Stadium for the King of the Death Match tournament, with Funk and Cactus each surviving two violent matches before meeting in the final: a no-rope barbed-wire, exploding barbed-wire board and exploding-ring time-bomb deathmatch. Both men entered already beaten up, and what followed became the gold standard for the genre. The match worked because Funk and Foley could create emotion underneath all of the violence. The exploding boards delivered the spectacle, but the planned centerpiece of the match nearly became a disaster when the ring explosion at the ten-minute mark dramatically underdelivered. Instead of allowing the match to die with it, Funk and Cactus improvised. They went back to the remaining explosives and brought a ladder into the match, with Cactus eventually coming off it with an elbow before the closing sequence left both men tangled and destroyed in the wire. Cactus crawled over Funk for the pin and was crowned King of the Death Match. That victory meant considerably more than winning a tournament. Terry Funk was already one of wrestling's great legends and had rarely lost in Japan, while Cactus was still establishing what his career would become after leaving WCW. Foley has described the night as Funk effectively passing the torch to him, and the prestige from defeating Terry gave Cactus credibility that followed him long after Kawasaki. The match was messy, dangerous and even technically failed at the moment that was supposed to provide its biggest spectacle, but Funk and Foley turning that failure into something memorable is part of why it has endured. There have been crazier and more dangerous deathmatches since, but when you combine the atmosphere, violence, improvisation, emotional connection between the two men and what the victory ultimately meant for Mick Foley's career, Cactus Jack vs. Terry Funk remains one of the genre's defining matches. Episode 206 brings together one of wrestling's biggest crossover matches that never happened, Omega and Ospreay turning their decade-long rivalry personal before Wembley, Pat McAfee seemingly closing the door on WWE, Josh Alexander moving toward his comeback, Logan Paul continuing his recovery, Jim Johnston questioning whether WWE would ever welcome him back and a look back at the night Terry Funk helped make Cactus Jack the King of the Death Match.

Ketamine clinics have exploded worldwide, offering low-dose intravenous infusions for chronic pain patients who've run out of options. But is this practice actually backed by evidence, or has off-label use outpaced the science? In this episode of the PainExam Podcast, Dr. David Rosenblum reviews the current literature on subanaesthetic-dose ketamine infusions (SDKIs) for chronic pain, drawing on the 2023 British Journal of Pain review by Harry M. Griffiths, "Low-dose ketamine infusions for chronic pain management: Does this qualify as evidence-based practice?" Topics covered: Why conventional analgesics (opioids, anticonvulsants, antidepressants) fail in 60–70% of chronic pain patients How ketamine works as an NMDA receptor antagonist, and why that mechanism is likely an oversimplification Typical SDKI dosing (~0.35–0.5 mg/kg) versus anesthetic dosing, and why the IV route dominates the evidence base What the meta-analyses actually show: modest, time-limited pain reduction (mean difference around -1.83 on a 0–10 scale) with higher efficacy but more side effects at higher doses Key trials — Corriger et al.'s 1-year follow-up (256 patients), Orhurhu et al.'s systematic review and meta-analysis, and smaller RCTs in CRPS, fibromyalgia, and ischemic limb pain Common side effects (nausea, psychomimetic symptoms) versus rare but serious adverse events (hepatic, cardiac, urogenital) — and how dose and premedication with clonidine/midazolam affect risk Why blinding failure (up to 93% of patients correctly guessing their treatment in one trial) may be inflating reported effect sizes The absence of standardized protocols, guidelines, or a clear "exit strategy" for patients on long-term SDKI therapy What needs to happen next: larger multicenter RCTs, ketamine clinic registries, and better outcome measures beyond simple pain scores Bottom line: SDKIs offer a promising but still under-evidenced option for refractory chronic pain — reserved for the right patient, with modest expectations and careful monitoring.

Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) has become an increasingly popular tool in oral surgery, but what is the best way to incorporate it into your practice? In this episode, Dr. Grant Stucki welcomes oral and maxillofacial surgeon Dr. Anish Gupta back to the podcast to discuss how PRF can enhance procedures ranging from third molar extraction to ridge preservation, sinus lifts, and bone grafting. Rather than presenting it as a cure-all, Dr. Gupta explains where PRF offers meaningful benefits, from improving soft tissue healing and creating easier-to-handle "sticky bone" to reducing post-operative concerns and simplifying graft placement. He also shares practical advice on implementation, equipment, team training, and protocol development. The conversation concludes with a discussion of liposomal bupivacaine (Exparel®) and its role in supporting opioid-free pain management after surgery. Tune in for practical insights to help refine your surgical workflow and patient care!Key Points From This Episode:=Introduction to platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) and how it differs from platelet-rich plasma (PRP).Using PRF for third molars and extraction sockets.Creating "sticky bone” with PRF to improve graft handling and stability.Where PRF helps most, like soft tissue healing, and why it isn't a cure-all.Dr. Gupta's PRF approach to third molar extraction and ridge preservation.How PRF reduces post-op concerns.Why patients and staff respond positively to PRF.Incorporating PRF into third molar surgery protocols.Why Dr. Gupta moved away from routine chlorhexidine use.Using StellaLife® alongside PRF to support post-op recovery.Practical tips for implementing PRF in a surgical practice.Emerging PRF applications and future directions.Resources for learning how to implement PRF and training your team.Using Exparel® to support opioid-free pain management.Setting realistic expectations for PRF and Exparel® outcomes.Links Mentioned in Today's Episode:Dr. Gupta Oral Surgeon | Lyon Dental Implants And Oral Surgery — https://lyondentalimplants.com/dr-guptaDr. Gupta Email — guptanish@gmail.comStellaLife® VEGA® Oral Care Spearmint Rinse — stellalife.com/products/stellalife-vega-oral-care-sprearmint-rinseDr. Richard J.

[00:00] Introduction — what's new in rotator cuff research [00:39] Breaking down the new JAMA Internal Medicine paper: a Finnish population-based study of 600+ patients (ages 40–75) who received bilateral shoulder MRIs [01:00] Key finding: imaging findings were nearly identical between asymptomatic (96%) and symptomatic (98%) patients; full-thickness tears were the only finding more common in symptomatic patients (14% vs. 6%), and even that difference lost statistical significance after adjustment [01:32] What it means: most rotator cuff MRI findings are normal, age-related changes — and MRI may be overused when the clinical diagnosis is already clear [02:22] The "hair loss" analogy: a tear is often a normal part of aging, not automatically something that needs fixing [02:55] The "50-to-60-year-old house inspection" analogy for interpreting an MRI report [03:41] Can you just watch a rotator cuff tear? Reviewing natural history data out of Washington University (Yamaguchi, Keener) [04:02] Partial-thickness tears: roughly one-third progress over 5–7 years. Full-thickness tears: roughly half progress over 5 years [04:50] Bottom line: if a patient is asymptomatic and fully functional, there is no indication to intervene — annual reassessment is reasonable [05:27] Physical therapy as first-line treatment — does it actually work, and how? [05:47] The mechanism: rotator cuff strengthening counterbalances the deltoid, maintaining subacromial space during overhead motion [07:21] PT success rates by diagnosis: ~70% for full-thickness tears, ~95% for impingement/tendinopathy and partial-thickness tears [07:55] When is surgery the right answer? Distinguishing acute traumatic tears from degenerative tears [08:10] Acute traumatic tears (e.g., a fall) are generally treated surgically [08:26] Degenerative tears that fail 6–12 weeks of non-operative management are reasonable surgical candidates [08:53] Tear location matters — tears involving the "rotator cuff cable" carry more biomechanical load and may be more likely to fail non-operative treatment [09:07] Timing is rarely urgent — most degenerative tears can be addressed within 6 months to a year without changing outcomes [10:22] Acute traumatic tears in younger, active patients: counsel surgery within 2–3 months; short delays (including during COVID) didn't appear to change outcomes [10:59] Injections: is a steroid shot still a good first option? [11:15] How corticosteroid injections work — and why they're different from narcotics (reducing inflammation vs. masking the pain signal) [13:05] General guidance: one or two injections is reasonable; by the third without improvement, it's time to discuss surgery [14:00] The data linking 5+ injections to higher retear rates — and why confounding by sicker, more chronic patient populations makes this hard to interpret cleanly [15:15] PRP (platelet-rich plasma): does it actually work for the rotator cuff? [16:11] Referencing this month's American Journal of Sports Medicine review — PRP shows mixed, short-term pain relief for impingement and partial-thickness tears, roughly comparable to physical therapy [16:52] The cost consideration: PRP is cash-pay, often $3,000–$4,000, for benefits similar to physical therapy alone [17:48] Deciding on surgery: introducing the Rotator Cuff Healing Index (age, tear size, muscle quality, bone quality, and shoulder demand) as a clinical decision tool [19:22] Why not just jump straight to a reverse total shoulder replacement for everyone with a good repair success rate? [19:57] Repair vs. reverse: repair typically preserves better strength and function for younger, active patients; reverse offers excellent pain relief but carries bigger stakes if complications (dislocation, infection) occur [21:37] The mystery of imaging that shows a tendon hasn't fully healed — yet the patient feels great and the shoulder functions well [23:23] Tendon transfers as an option for irreparable tears in younger, active patients without arthritis [23:50] The lower trapezius transfer explained — how it works and its ~80% success rate [24:53] Wrap-up and where to subscribe Key Takeaways • A positive MRI finding does not automatically mean a rotator cuff tear needs to be fixed — most changes seen on imaging are normal, age-related findings, and imaging findings are similar in symptomatic and asymptomatic patients. • Natural history data suggests roughly one-third of partial-thickness tears and about half of full-thickness tears will progress over 5–7 years — most do not need urgent intervention. • Physical therapy — specifically targeted rotator cuff strengthening — is genuinely effective, not just a placeholder step, with especially strong success rates for impingement and partial-thickness tears. • Surgical timing is rarely an emergency for degenerative tears; acute traumatic tears in younger patients warrant a shorter window (2–3 months). • Corticosteroid injections are safe and effective for short-term relief when used judiciously (generally one to two); repeated injections (5+) are associated with higher retear rates, though this is confounded by patient population. • PRP is safe but not regenerative for the rotator cuff — its benefit is comparable to physical therapy, at a meaningfully higher out-of-pocket cost. • The Rotator Cuff Healing Index can help predict repair success and guide the choice between repair and reverse total shoulder replacement, particularly in older patients. • Lower trapezius tendon transfer is a strong option for younger, active patients with irreparable tears and no arthritis, with roughly 80% success in appropriately selected patients.

Can stem cell therapy help the body repair itself? Learn how stem cells may influence inflammation, immune function, tissue regeneration, brain health, and aging.Stem cell therapy is one of the most talked-about areas of regenerative medicine, but not all stem cells or treatments are the same. In this episode, Dr. Joy Kong explains how stem cells work, why their source matters, and what patients should investigate before choosing a treatment or clinic.We explore the differences between bone marrow, fat-derived, and umbilical cord-derived stem cells, along with IV infusions, local injections, PRP, and exosomes. Dr. Kong also discusses emerging research and clinical observations involving chronic inflammation, neurological health, joint pain, skin, hair loss, aging, and cancer.Many of the treatments and potential applications discussed remain experimental and are not established treatments for the conditions mentioned. This conversation is for educational purposes and should not replace individualized medical advice.Subscribe for weekly health and longevity breakdowns, and comment below: Would you ever consider stem cell therapy?If you are managing chronic inflammation, exploring ways to support healthy aging, or looking for personalized cancer support, explore related Hol+ care options here:Inflammation:https://holplus.co/conditions/inflammation/Longevity and Anti-Aging:https://holplus.co/services/longevity-anti-aging/0:00 Can Stem Cells Help the Body Heal?0:57 Meet Dr. Joy Kong7:28 What Is a Stem Cell?14:49 Bone Marrow, Fat, and Umbilical Cord Stem Cells17:10 How to Evaluate Stem Cell Quality and Safety23:00 IV Stem Cells, Injections, PRP, and Exosomes33:45 Stem Cells and Cancer40:26 Brain Health and Neurological Conditions42:20 Skin, Hair, Anti-Aging, and Weight Loss48:01 The Future of Stem Cell Medicine55:19 Stem Cell Costs and Overseas Clinics59:04 Dr. Kong's Approach to Health and LongevityAbout Dr. Joy Kong:Dr. Joy Kong is a UCLA-trained, triple board-certified physician specializing in anti-aging and regenerative medicine.

Are surgical risks in EDS exaggerated, underestimated, or simply misunderstood? And how can patients tell the difference between a promising treatment and an expensive procedure being marketed ahead of the evidence? In this listener Q&A episode, host Dr. Linda Bluestein, the Hypermobility MD, is joined by recurring co-host Dr. Dacre Knight, Medical Director of the UVA Health EDS and Hypermobility Disorders Center, to tackle some of the most difficult questions submitted by the Bendy Bodies community. They begin with a candid discussion about surgery in EDS: why most patients do well, which complications are genuinely more likely, and why a surgeon's technical experience and procedural volume may matter just as much as their understanding of EDS (Ehlers-Danlos Syndromes) and HSD (Hypermobility Spectrum Disorders). They also explain how poorly controlled mast cell activation can derail recovery and why preparation before surgery may be more important than simply being reassured that everything will be fine. The conversation then turns to the striking mental health burden within the EDS and hypermobility population, including self-harm and cutting behaviors. Dr. Bluestein and Dr. Knight discuss why anxiety, depression, insomnia, and pain may sometimes reflect shared underlying biological drivers, and how treatments such as low dose naltrexone (LDN) may improve multiple symptoms at once when used thoughtfully. Listener questions lead them into the increasingly controversial world of cervical instability treatment, including PRP, the PICL procedure, and cervical fusion. What evidence actually exists? Who may benefit? What are the risks? And could treating mast cell activation and other contributors first reduce symptoms enough to avoid an invasive procedure altogether? They also take a critical look at IV infusion therapy, explaining when infusions may be medically appropriate, when they may cause more harm than benefit, and why clinics offering the same expensive infusion to nearly every patient before reviewing labs should immediately raise concern. The episode closes with an honest assessment of what is currently known about the cause of hypermobile EDS (hEDS), whether epigenetics may play a role, and why patients should pause whenever a clinician recommends a highly prescriptive treatment before completing a proper diagnostic evaluation. Takeaways: EDS surgery risks are real, but fear-based messaging can be harmful too. Most patients do well, especially when they choose an experienced, high-volume surgeon and address factors such as mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS) before the procedure. A kind surgeon is not necessarily a skilled surgeon. Bedside manner matters, but technical expertise, procedural volume, complication rates, and careful postoperative planning may matter even more. Mental health symptoms in EDS should not automatically be dismissed as “just anxiety.” Pain, poor sleep, mast cell activation, autonomic dysfunction, inflammation, and other biological drivers can profoundly affect emotional health and may need to be treated alongside psychological support. One treatment can sometimes improve far more than one symptom. When appropriately prescribed, low dose naltrexone (LDN) may improve pain, sleep, mood, anxiety, GI symptoms, and overall function by addressing shared underlying mechanisms. PRP and the PICL procedure are promising options for carefully selected patients, particularly given the significant risks and irreversible nature of cervical fusion. While early experience is encouraging, we still need higher-quality studies to better define who benefits most, what the long-term outcomes are, and how these procedures compare with other treatment options.

A genetic connective tissue disorder deemed incurable by medicine improved dramatically through carnivore nutrition and structural medicine that conventional practice overlooks.DESCRIPTIONAt 16, Edward Goeke developed debilitating symptoms that left him bedridden: crippling pain whenever he felt emotion, constant tachycardia, and progressive deterioration. For two years, doctors dismissed him. Medications failed. Plant-based eating worsened his condition. By 18, he was losing vision and preparing to die.Then came diagnosis: Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, a genetic connective tissue disorder affecting his ligaments throughout his body. Told it was permanent. Told he'd never fully recover.But something shifted when he eliminated plant foods entirely and adopted a carnivore diet. Combined with targeted structural therapies—PRP prolotherapy and deep tissue tendon needling—his symptoms stabilized, then reversed. Now 22, he walks, trains, and functions normally. More provocatively, he's built a research-backed argument that "genetic" and "incurable" aren't the same thing, and that nutritional intervention can fundamentally alter gene expression.Edward's now creating content to challenge mainstream health dogma, particularly for younger audiences conditioned to accept conventional medicine's failures as inevitable.Edward Goeke: ContraindicatedYouTube: Edward A.

Why is Tommy John surgery suddenly everywhere, even among 11-year-olds? On this episode of HSS Presents, orthopedic surgeon Dr. Josh Dines, sports medicine specialist Dr. James "Beamer" Carr, and physical therapist Terrance Sgroi dig into the UCL injury epidemic fueled by baseball's obsession with velocity, and how they diagnose it using exam techniques and the elbow-stressing "FEVER" MRI view. They break down when surgery is truly necessary versus when conservative treatment has a real shot, plus the murky world of PRP and stem cells. They cover the evolution of the surgery itself, from Frank Jobe's original 1974 procedure to today's bone-preserving docking technique, and why modern rehab timelines have gotten longer, not shorter, to safely return high-velocity throwers to the mound.
What if a diagnosis of "unexplained infertility" simply means no one's looked closely enough yet? Two Aimees share their views on how "unexplained" may be a lazy diagnosis that actually requires a deeper dive into what is going on. In this episode of The Egg Whisper Show, I sit down with Aimee Raupp @AimeeRaupp bestselling author, fertility expert, and longtime women's health advocate, to talk about her book Yes, You Can Get Pregnant, and why "unexplained infertility" is often just a lazy diagnosis. We cover everything from joy and nervous system regulation to inflammation, immune dysregulation, ovarian PRP, and the daily habits that actually move the needle on fertility outcomes, no matter your age. ✅️In this episode, we cover: - Why joy, pleasure, and nervous system regulation directly impact hormones and egg quality - The real reasons behind the diagnosis "unexplained infertility" and why it's rarely actually unexplained - The four pillars behind PCOS, POI, endometriosis, and repeat implantation failure - Key labs to request before starting IVF or egg freezing - Daily lifestyle shifts (sunlight, sleep, nutrition, endocrine disruptors) that support fertility - Ovarian PRP and rejuvenation: what the research actually shows - How to build a "no regret" fertility plan with your care team
In an industry constantly promoting the newest device or technology, why has microneedling remained a cornerstone of skin rejuvenation?In this episode of Plastic Surgery Uncensored, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Rady Rahban is joined by aesthetic nurse Charlene for part four of their five-part series examining today's most popular nonsurgical aesthetic treatments.Together, they explore the science behind microneedling, how controlled collagen stimulation can improve skin texture, tone, fine lines, acne scars, and overall skin quality, and why this relatively simple treatment continues to earn the confidence of experienced providers despite the constant introduction of newer technologies.Dr. Rahban and Charlene also discuss the differences between microneedling devices, why the quality of the equipment and technique matter, the role of PRP, PRF, hyaluronic acid, and other skin boosters, what to expect during recovery, and the importance of proper post-treatment care to maximize both safety and results.This episode isn't about chasing the latest trend or claiming that one treatment can solve every skin concern. It's about understanding why microneedling has remained a foundational treatment in aesthetic medicine—and why, for many patients, it represents one of the safest, most effective long-term investments in healthier, more resilient skin.✨ If you enjoyed this episode of Plastic Surgery Uncensored:✔️ Subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen.✔️ Rate & Review—your feedback helps more people find us.✔️ Follow Dr. Rady Rahban across all platforms for daily insights, behind-the-scenes, and patient education:Instagram: @drradyrahbanTikTok: @radyrahbanMDYouTube: @Rady RahbanFacebook: @Rady Rahban✔️ Share this episode with someone considering plastic surgery—the right knowledge can save a life.
You've been told your skin is aging because of what's happening on the outside, but I think the real fire is inflammation coming from the inside.
