In this episode, we explore the connections between Autism and Parkinson's, focusing particularly on the basal ganglia and its substructures, notably the substantia nigra within the midbrain. We discuss how the substantia nigra, known for its high concentration of neuromelanin, plays a critical role in these disorders. The episode examines how neuromelanin, a dark pigment, not only absorbs all frequencies of light but also has antioxidant properties, binds metals, and acts as a neuroprotector. This discussion leads into the broader implications of environmental signals, particularly light, on human biology, touching on how modern changes in light exposure might affect these conditions.We examine the role of tyrosine in the synthesis of neuromelanin and its derivatives like dopamine, which are crucial for neural function. We look at how deficiencies or imbalances in these pathways could lead to the symptoms observed in Autism and Parkinson's, including motor function issues. The conversation also covers the direct and indirect pathways in the basal ganglia, explaining how these pathways facilitate or inhibit movement, respectively, and how their dysfunction can manifest in the characteristic motor symptoms of both disorders. We also touch on the significance of thyroid function, particularly the roles of T3 and T4 hormones, in brain development and neuron health, tying these elements back to the overarching theme of energy loss and transduction in both Autism and Parkinson's.Autism and Parkinson's are a lack of, or a loss of, energy.Biological Energy: Quantum Mechanisms, Water, DHA, and NF-kB: https://youtu.be/2-IA_gunXbwDaylight Computer Company, use "autism" for $50 off athttps://buy.daylightcomputer.com/autismChroma Light Devices, use "autism" for 10% discount athttps://getchroma.co/?ref=autismCognity AI for Autistic Social Skills, use "autism" for 10% discount athttps://thecognity.com0:00 Autism and Parkinson's; Basal Ganglia; Substantia Nigra; Neuromelanin; Internal Calculators2:15 Tyrosine; Chromophores; Aromatic Amino Acids3:50 Biological Energy; Mitochondria; Environmental Signals; Cytochrome C Oxidase; Autism Research Miss6:20 Deep Brain Stimulation6:48 Neuromelanin9:02 Reverse Engineer ATPase10:48 Tree Examples11:45 Hypoxia and loss of energy & dopamine12:26 Eyes, hair, & skin; RPE; efficiency & power; What is Light?13:58 Light; Information & Energy; electromagnetic; wave-particle duality; sunlight versus artificial light17:08 Thyroid; T3 & T4; Iodine18:31 Roles of T323:00 Loss of energy in the womb & Autism research25:00 Melanin + Water = Electrons26:40 Basal Ganglia; "Motivations" & Movements; Direct Pathway30:55 Indirect Pathway32:52 Go, No-Go; Action selection, learning & habits; fine motor skills34:18 Parkinson's and loss of timing & energy; modulating the two pathways & dopamine37:07 Reviews/Ratings & contact infoX: https://x.com/rps47586YT: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGxEzLKXkjppo3nqmpXpzuAemail: info.fromthespectrum@gmail.com

The Construction Science Expo was held Sept. 30, 2025. Their 14th year overall and third year occurring in the Lansing area. This hands-on event introduces youth to skilled trades and construction careers, giving them the chance to try activities like bricklaying, electrical wiring, and heavy equipment operation. T3 and Capital Area Michigan Works! hosted it at Impressions 5 Science Center and in a parking lot across the street at property belonging to Lansing BWL (Board of Water & Light). This video shares a pair of interviews and footage of the Middle Schoolers experiencing the event in downtown Lansing. Lansing Hosts 3rd Annual Construction Science Expo, Inspiring the Next Generation of Skilled Trades Professionals LANSING, Mich. — September 30, 2025 — The Lansing region welcomed hundreds of eager middle school students today, for the 3rd Annual Lansing Construction Science Expo, hosted in partnership by T3 (Teach. Talent. Thrive.), Capital Area Michigan Works!, and the ACEC Michigan chapter. Now in its 14th year overall, this is the third time the event has taken place in the Lansing area. The hands-on expo was held at the Impressions 5 Science Center and adjacent lots owned by the Lansing Board of Water & Light (BWL). The expo gave students a unique opportunity to get their hands dirty with real construction tasks — from electrical wiring and bricklaying to heavy equipment simulators — under the guidance of industry professionals. The experience is designed to expose young learners to in-demand careers in the built environment and break down misconceptions about what careers in construction can be. As a highlight, event organizers invited regional firms and infrastructure stakeholders, including the City of Lansing, BWL, and local engineering firms, to host activity stations and mentor students. The expo aligns with the American Council of Engineering Companies-Michigan's commitment to support workforce development. The ACEC Michigan calendar lists the event as a key link between the engineering profession and the broader community. “Getting students to pour a footing or wire a test circuit with their own hands helps remove fear of trades and opens their eyes to real opportunities,” said a representative from ACEC Michigan. For sponsors, schools, and industry participants, the expo is more than outreach — it's a long-term investment in developing a workforce pipeline. Employers gain early exposure to future talent, while school partners receive access to resource lists, follow-up educational pathways, and industry contacts. Many participating firms provide apprenticeships, internships, and scholarships tied directly to their interactions at the event. Capital Area Michigan Works! and T3 plan to expand the event footprint in 2026, with outreach into rural school districts and additional construction discipline modules (such as plumbing, HVAC, and civil surveying).

Your thyroid doesn't work in isolation. It relies on your liver, your bile, and even your gut bacteria to keep hormone conversion running smoothly. In this episode of Thyroid Shorts, Dr. Eric Balcavage explains how thyroid hormone T3 regulates bile acid production, shapes your microbiome, and keeps your gut lining strong in a state of homeostasis. But what happens when stress, inflammation, or the Cell Danger Response lower circulating T3? The liver shifts bile chemistry, gut bugs change, and your barrier can loosen. This isn't necessarily dysfunction — it's your body's intelligent defense mode. Short-term, it helps fight microbes and fuel the immune system. Long-term, it can leave you stuck with fatigue, bloating, constipation, brain fog, and “normal” labs that don't match how you feel. You'll also learn why giving T3 medication in this state can be both helpful and harmful — and why timing, context, and removing the underlying threats matter more than simply “optimizing” your labs. Key topics: How T3 regulates bile acid balance, gut microbes, and barrier function. Why low T3 shifts bile acids toward defense mode (↑CA, ↓CDCA). The adaptive purpose of sluggish bile and reduced conversion. The pros and cons of T3 replacement during inflammation. Clinical guardrails for restoring thyroid health without chasing numbers.   www.drericbalcavage.com

Send us a textIf your thyroid results look “normal” but you still feel exhausted, foggy, or stuck — this episode will help you understand why.In this in-depth solo episode, Registered Nutritionist and Autoimmune Specialist VJ Hamilton explores why thyroid issues often start outside the thyroid. Drawing on both her personal experience and years in clinical practice, she explains how five key body systems — the gut, liver, adrenals, sex hormones, and mitochondria — can all disrupt thyroid function, slow conversion, and mimic hypothyroidism even when test results appear fine.VJ shares her own story of high TSH and low T3 without raised antibodies, unpacking how stress, inflammation, and adrenal dysregulation were at the root of her symptoms — and how she now helps clients identify similar patterns in practice.You'll learn:Why thyroid tests rarely tell the full storyHow gut and liver health shape thyroid hormone conversionThe adrenal–thyroid connection and how cortisol can mask or worsen hypothyroidismThe impact of hormone transitions like perimenopause on thyroid receptor sensitivityPractical nutrient and lifestyle strategies to support thyroid function naturallyIf you've ever felt unseen, unheard, or “normal on paper,” this conversation will give you a new lens for understanding your thyroid and your body's incredible interconnectedness.

See all the Healthcasts at https://www.biobalancehealth.com/healthcast-blog You will learn: What holds up new treatments for diseases and conditions How long the FDA sits on a known safe medical medication before it is released to the public. Why safe and effective drugs are NOT approved by the FDA Why doctors are forced to use medications off label How you can help During my 44 years of medical practice, I have encountered conditions for which there is no approved medication or surgical treatment available as recognized by the American College of OBGYN or the FDA. This situation can present challenges both for physicians managing these patients and for individuals seeking relief from their symptoms. This issue is not often addressed on Dr Oz, in the news, or at medical conferences. For many conditions, physicians wait for the development of approved medications or treatments, and in the meantime may inform patients that there is currently no treatment or cure available. Some doctors may attribute a patient's concerns to aging, stating that it is a universal experience. While this may be accurate, such explanations may not provide comfort to patients seeking solutions to their symptoms. This lack of helpful guidance can discourage individuals from seeking medical care when they feel their concerns are not acknowledged. This seems to result from insurance companies prioritizing cost savings by minimizing patient care.  Every year insurance companies decrease what they pay doctors for their services, while their expenses go up, and the Government requires more and more work behind the scenes like HIPPA, OSHA, and Clia requirements that costs more to deliver the same service.  If you have a problem with the time your doctor spends with you then blame the insurance companies whose profits rise every year…Soon doctors will do what I do and only take cash.  The practice of medicine is not working in a free market. While insurance limits the prescriptions of medication to those meds that are FDA Approved, the FDA and medical specialty colleges often delay approval of new, low-risk treatments for up to 20 years after their effectiveness is demonstrated. This lengthy process should be reconsidered to treat people who are ill and suffering, now. There is plenty of research in the medical journals that explain the safety of new and effective treatments that can save peoples' lives that are not FDA approved yet. The FDA is not interested in expediting the release of medication/ devices quickly to those people who need help now. They drag out the testing of a medicine that has been effective for years and may or may not approve it. On the flip side they have approved many drugs that later are found to have severe side effects, and they just change the warnings on the medication inserts. They don't take them off the market except in severe cases. Drugs that have worked treating patients successfully are being used but are not FDA approved. These “grandfathered drugs” don't need to go through the testing that new drugs go through because they work with few well-known risks. I use many if these medications because they are inexpensive for my patients and are often more effective than new meds for the same problem. One of the drugs that the FDA has not had to approve is Armour Thyroid, a natural thyroid replacement. My experience with treatments not approved by the FDA Armour Thyroid: Armour Thyroid (AT) has been prescribed by doctors to replace thyroid hormones for about 100 years. It is natural, made from Pig thyroid. It only comes from “medical Pigs” that are raised for medical purposes.  We use medical pigs for skin grafts, and other parts of the pig to treat human diseases like heart valve replacements.  Armour Thyroid is composed of the four thyroid hormones that humans make: T4, T3, T2, T1. The synthetic thyroid replacement, Synthroid/levothyroxine is only T4.  The active form of thyroid is T3, and it requires an enzyme to convert T4 into T3. If a person can't convert T4 into active T3 then nothing improves except the blood levels of T4, and TSH. The majority of women cannot convert T4 into T3. Therefore, if they take Synthroid or levothyroxine and their doctor only checks their TSH level and not the level of free T3 and free T4 to see if the Thyroid is working, then women are told that they are healed, yet they know they are not because none of their low thyroid symptoms are resolved. When this happens, doctors tell female patients that it is all in their heads and dismiss us when we tell them we are not cured with this synthetic T4 medication. Yet Synthroid is a chemical, and AT is natural from medical pigs, so the FDA is trying to Bann the only drug that has successfully treated millions of women. PS. Synthroid was not tested on women like many other drugs that were passed through the FDA before 2014! If you think this is a small problem, think again. Thyroid hormones are vital to human life, and the thyroid gland requires Iodine in the diet. The Midwest US has no Iodine in the soil or water. Therefore, this area is overburdened with hypothyroidism. I have been on AT for 50 years without complication and I have prescribed it thousands of times ever since I went into private practice.  AT works to relieve the symptoms of hypothyroidism for women and men, and it works better for women that the “new” drug Synthroid/levothyroxine, which is FDA approved. You ask how could the FDA approve a drug that doesn't successfully treat women? It is because Synthroid was not tested on women!  Until 2014 the FDA did not test women in the required drug trials.  AT works for us (women), Levothyroxine does not. Now the FDA wants to ban AT. It is not approved because it was around for decades before they started testing medications like they do now, and the history of successful treatment should stand on its own merit! Example 2: Bio-Identical Hormones BIH:  BIHs had not been approved by the FDA until recently and there was no announcement that they are now approved for women who have hormone deficiency symptoms or postmenopausal symptoms. Most doctors and women who have been afraid of the only hormones that can help them, bioidentical hormones, haven't yet been told that NOW, FINALLY the medical colleges and the FDA finally have quietly approved BI hormones.  There are no pure estradiol and pure testosterone pellets that are made by a drug company for women. My patients get their estradiol and testosterone pellets from a compounding pharmacy.  I have been prescribing BIH since 1985 without FDA approval because the oral estrogen formulations that were available at pharmacies caused weight gain and put women at high risk for blood clots. Non-oral BI hormones have fewer risks than FDA approved estrogens.  I waited more than 45 years for the FDA to approve BI hormones for treatment of women.  All those women in the last 45 years who were taking FDA approved estradiol and those who couldn't tolerate them have been harmed by FDA goals of never approving compounded or bio-identical hormones.  The delay has harmed 50% of American women. Example #3 Devices for Weight Loss I was involved in the discovery and testing of a unique device that stimulated acupuncture points with a TENS-unit-type patch connected to your cell phone for easy adjustment of your hunger or “fullness”. The FDA requires testing to approve any new device so the group of investors I was part of had to invest thousands of dollars for a device we already knew worked. The FDA told the investigators of all new devices who they should test, who they can't have in the study, and how long the testing should take. I found their parameters for the study of this device to be unrealistic. The women in our test group could not be taking hormones of any kind (birth control, ERT, HRT), and could not be on antidepressants, could not have diabetes or insulin resistance or be on any drug that assisted in weight loss. These women subjects had to be a certain BMI (level of obesity) and had to be tested repeatedly with weight and body composition measurements None of my patients who needed weight loss could participate.  Most GYN patients are on some medication or supplement, so the FDA made this study of our device so narrow that REAL WOMEN weren't tested! Sadly, we lost many women in the control group from the study because they were NOT losing weight while the ones on the device were obviously dropping pounds, so we had trouble maintaining test subjects. The testing phase of this simple device took 7 years! Our device works and no one will ever know about it or be able to use this non-medicinal weight loss device because when the FDA rejects your device you will be breaking the law if you produce and sell it directly to the public. It has no side effects or dangers..it just controls the amount you eat with stimulation of an acupuncture point. There are many ways to change this situation, and it takes years and billions of dollars to change the whole system of bringing treatments to patients quickly.  I'm afraid I won't see a revolution of the way we bring medicines and devices to market during my lifetime. Currently there is a 17-year delay between proving a drug or device works for a particular illness or condition and when it becomes available to doctors and patients. So what do we do in the meantime?  I seek treatments for patients who are unresponsive to traditional medicine by reading journals like Life Extension, that inform doctors and patients alike about new effective solutions for common medical complaints and diseases that the FDA has ignored or stymied with endless drug trials.  Life Extension Magazine highlights studies on new medications for diseases without an FDA approved solution and publicizes diagnostic tests often overlooked by mainstream publications because they are not yet FDA approved. The medical journals I read (New England Journal of Medicine, JAMA, Menopause, Metabolism and Endocrinology, Journal of Age management, to name a few) offer treatments for orphan diseases or even common problems that haven't been blessed by the FDA. It takes an average of 17 years from the culmination of research on a new drug, test or device until it is approved for use by the public! At the end of this Blog, I will give you a link to make your voice heard by signing a petition to shorten the approval of new treatments and medications from the average of 17 years to 3 years! My patients don't have time to wait for relief, and that may be the case for you as well. If you want to do something to help, please click this link and let the FDA know how you feel.

See all the Healthcasts at https://www.biobalancehealth.com/healthcast-blog If you ever doubted your doctor because she wrote a script that you later “Googled” and found was not FDA approved, I hope you trusted your doctor enough to realize that she wouldn't recommend any medication that would hurt you…. What is an unapproved use of a drug, also called “off-label”? Unapproved use of an approved drug is often called “off-label” use. This term can mean that the drug is: Used for a disease or medical condition that it is not approved to treat, such as when a chemotherapy is approved to treat one type of cancer, but healthcare providers use it to treat a different type of cancer. The drugs that are not approved by the FDA, yet are commonly used, have been used for decades before the 1964 law that required new drugs to go through extensive and very expensive testing before their release to the public. The operative word is NEW DRUGS AFTER 1964. Today I will talk about the safety of non-FDA approved drugs because they are: Older cheaper drugs used for many diseases and conditions before 1964 and are still used Drugs that are approved for one use, or one condition, but not for other conditions that it is effective and safe for. Drugs made by compounding pharmacies for diseases that the FDA has not approved a drug for, but there is research backing the drug and years of safe use. First, before we discuss the non-FDA approved drugs, I will discuss the safety/risks of FDA approved drugs, and why FDA approval doesn't mean a drug will do no harm or even that it is effective for the use it is approved for. A little background will help you understand the problem and the reason an FDA approval does not necessarily mean a drug is safe.  Since 1964, a law was passed that established testing prior to a drug being approved by the FDA became mandatory.   Since that time several drugs that survive FDA approval and are released but are later removed or banned after their FDA release when the public finds side effects that the FDA didn't discover in their trials. One such drug is Fen-Phen, Fenfluramine/Phentermine. This drug was released during my time practicing medicine and was withdrawn after one study claimed it caused heart valve disease…In the end the “one post approval study” that claimed that heart valves were affected by this drug that caused its bann was found to be false. The withdrawal of the drug followed one study by a single cardiologist from Kansas City had reviewed all of the cardiac valve echo tests and falsified the results to make Fen-Phen appear dangerous to heart valves, when in reality it wasn't.  She lost her license, but the FDA never put Fen-Phen back on the market!  The FDA hates to be wrong twice, so they never allowed this drug back on the market after its removal. Other mistakes made by the FDA include not allowing women in the studies to approve a drug before 2014 which ignores or misses all of the side effects or lack of effectiveness for a drug when taken by women.  Despite all the expensive testing before the release of a drug by the FDA, many drugs not tested on women were later often found to have severe side effects only on women. A few examples follow: You might have heard of the FDA approved drug Ambien that causes many women to experience “night eating”, sleepwalking, and night terrors, while their male counterparts were not affected, so because they only tested men the drug was approved. In retrospect it should have been tested on women as well, and then either not passed through the FDA or should have had a black box warning for women. It takes years get action from the FDA, notifying doctors of these side effects. Women were not included in testing for any drugs except female hormones until 11 years ago, but no other drugs.   Before 2014 all (non-hormonal) drugs that passed the FDA were not tested on women so the effect on women was unknown until it was tested on the public. The FDA left women out of drug-trials because it viewed women as “mini men”, or they didn't consider us important enough to test new drugs on…OR worse, they believed we were too complicated to easily test us because of pregnancy, menopause and other hormonal swings that normal healthy women have.  In any case, we are now suffering their decisions, when a medication works one way for men and another way for women! Finally, we are tested when drugs are being evaluated for approval by the FDA. Professional women have achieved a level of authority in medicine and pharmacology (2025) and are weighing in on the inequity. Women in the medical profession and the public are pulling back the curtain on the side effects of FDA approved drugs that are experienced by women only! Slowly, study by study investigators are now publishing the side effects and problems for women with FDA approved drugs….yet these findings are not included in the warnings on most of these drugs, even now over 15 year after they became obvious to the doctors who treat women! Drugs that either don't work for women, or that have severe side effects include that were approved before 2014. All statin drugs for high cholesterol (Crestor, rosuvastatin, atorvastatin, etc.) cause women to have muscle breakdown and muscle pain. Synthroid (levothyroxine), doesn't cure the symptoms of hypothyroidism in 80% of women, but just makes the TSH lower, so it appears as if it is working! This leads doctors to tell women that their symptoms are all in their heads!! Wrong.  It is the wrong medicine. Women have enzymes that differ from men that make it difficult for them to convert the inactive form (T4) into the active form (T3), so we can't convert Synthroid (all T4) into the active form. Synthroid, the FDA approved drug for hypothyroidism, shouldn't be given to most women. Women should be given the non-FDA approved drug Armour Thyroid or NP thyroid that have both T3 and T4 in them! Ambien Prednisone and other oral steroids We have reviewed the lack of testing on women before 2014, now we will discuss safe drugs that have been used for decades even before 1964 when the FDA required testing for FDA approval? Older, yet effective and inexpensive drugs have been tested by the public, some for almost 100 years that have saved thousands of lives, yet they are not given the FDA stamp of approval!  In fact, the FDA tries to put these drugs out of circulation, replacing them with very expensive drugs that are new! Or they just shut them down, because they are not FDA approved.  Young doctors are told not to use them by their medical schoolteachers who rarely have experienced these medications in private practice…. These doctors in training don't know the history of older safer, cheaper drugs, or even why the FDA tells them avoid them. They comply not knowing why, so you are left with no drug that works for you, or you pay 3-10 times the amount for a newer FDA version of the older drug which may even have more side effects. Some of these older very effective and cheap drugs are Penicillin, Nitroglycerine for chest pain, Morphine (pain), Phenobarbital (seizures), Codeine, Armour Thyroid, hormone injections including estradiol injections and testosterone, Thorazine for psychiatric use, (Pitocin) oxytocin for labor, lactation support and Autism Colchicine:Used to treat and prevent gout. Progesterone in oil (IM) Estradiol in oil (IM) B12 for injection Testosterone Cypionate for injection Compounded Estradiol in any form Compounded Testosterone for women These drugs have been used for so long that any safety risks or side effects have been found through the use of these drugs in the population. Yet the FDA won't grandfather them in and approve them based on their history! What do doctors do when the drug the FDA has approved a drug that doesn't work for a group of their patients (gender, race, blood type, etc.)?  What happens when a doctor can't find a drug that is FDA approved needed to treat a condition she is faced with? Why do we as citizens, allow the government to have power over doctors who are already controlled by their state licensing boards as to what medications they?  Lastly Why do taxpayers allow a government agency that they fund with tax dollars control their health by banning, or not approving drugs, or banning one drug so an outrageously expensive drug is put in its place? Compounded Medications/ Compounding Pharmacies: These drugs are made by mixing ingredients to meet individual patient needs and are not subject to premarket review for safety, effectiveness, or quality. However, they ARE subject to the success or failure for which they were prescribed. If a doctor prescribes a compounded drug that doesn't work, she is apt to be confronted by her patient who is not getting the expected results.  Compounding pharmacies usually don't get paid by insurance, so patients are more invested in getting a drug that works and that is one of the big reasons that Compounded medicines are at least as good or better than big pharma or generic drugs. I absolutely could not successfully treat the thousands of women and men that I have without compounding pharmacies.  They compound hormones/drugs that are safe and effective, mostly hormones that can't be patented because they occur in nature and won't ever be made by big pharma. More than that, big producers of drugs can't produce in mass quantities many doses of a certain hormone like compounding pharmacies do.  Compounding pharmacies provide what people need and they continue to do so because patients prefer their dosing and quality.  FDA approved Generic Drugs can be legally 25 % lower dose than what they say they are.  That would be a big problem if my compounded pellets had that kind of variability. People might need pellets every 2months or every 5 months instead of every 4 months..it would be like guessing what you need ahead of time…..I believe dedicated compounding pharmacists are more accurate than any generic on the market. Compounding pharmacies: Unsung Heros Compounding pharmacies serve the public when big pharma fails and hasn't developed a safety net for production if they have a problem and the FDA shuts them down. That situation leaves patients who take their medications, without an alternative. Compounding pharmacies step into the breech when big pharma has a problem with a particular drug and stop making a drug (e.g. Lidocaine, B12 injectable, IV Fluids, to name a few shortages and no production that have occurred in the recent past). What if patients couldn't get the meds they need, and if there were no compounding pharmacies—Chaos and suffering and dying patients would closely follow! The FDA is Fickle and is not on your side! For years the FDA did not approve of Bioidentical estrogen and testosterone in any form, and just a few months ago all of a sudden, long after they scared women from taking the hormones they needed to improve their length of life and quality of life, they decided bioidentical hormones are better than the FDA approved hormones!!!  That is a little too late.  Some of us will never forget the stress lack of approval of compounded hormones caused for doctors and patients alike.  Other doctors criticized us and now most of them aren't even in practice anymore.  Maybe the FDA read my blog!!! Compounded hormones have been approved by the masses of women who have taken them under my signature! Compounded BI hormones are medications with a long track record and should not have to be tested with the bloated expense required of testing for the FDA. For Gynecological Disorders that don't have an FDA approved hormone drug because testosterone and estradiol have been used for so long that they don't need testing. If there was a significant problem with them their history of use of over 5-7 decades has proven the efficacy and safety of the female hormones for treatment and hormone replacement. For Psychiatric Disorders: Some patients need compounded ketamine products for conditions like severe depression, despite lacking FDA approval for these uses and potential risks, yet it has been used for this purpose for decades and was used for childbirth for almost a century, until epidurals and saddle blocks took their place. Testosterone for women still is not recognized as a female hormone even though women produce over twice as much Testosterone as Estradiol when they are in their fertile years.   Replacement of T with bioidentical T pellets offers a treatment for dozens of symptoms women face after age 40, and it prevents the diseases of aging: osteoporosis, heart disease, sarcopenia, frailty, diabetes and more that have not been addressed by mainstream medicine and the FDA. Over a decade ago, the FDA turned down the approval of testosterone patch after over 3 years of positive research studies, the FDA said they didn't approve T for women is because the side effect of T for women, facial hair, was dangerous for women.…I cry B—–S—-!  That is really men not wanting to share testosterone replacement with women. I say leave us alone and let women and their doctors determine what they need.  It is proven that only 5% of all professionals in any profession are not trustworthy, so give doctors their due and trust that we are looking for answers to our patients' problems that you don't even know about! The FDA is paid for by us…everyone in this country. I say hands off! Speed up the approval process or forget it for older drugs and BI hormones! ~

Episode 208: Nitric Oxide - The Missing Link in Thyroid & Chronic Disease with Dr. Nathan Bryan In this episode, Dr. Eric Balcavage is joined by nitric oxide researcher and author Dr. Nathan Bryan, whose new book The Secret of Nitric Oxide explores why this tiny signaling molecule may be the key to preventing and reversing chronic illness. Together, they dive deep into: What nitric oxide is and why it's foundational for human health. How nitric oxide is made in the body—through both enzymatic and dietary pathways. The connection between nitric oxide, inflammation, oxidative stress, and the Cell Danger Response (CDR). How nitric oxide influences thyroid hormone production, conversion (T4 → T3), and the rise of reverse T3. Why loss of nitric oxide is one of the earliest triggers in chronic disease, including Hashimoto's, cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer's, and more. Common disruptors of nitric oxide production—nutrient deficiencies, environmental toxins, poor lifestyle habits, and even fluoride exposure. Practical steps to restore nitric oxide production naturally for better thyroid, metabolic, and overall health. This is a powerful conversation that reframes nitric oxide not as just a cardiovascular molecule, but as a master regulator of cellular health, energy production, and thyroid physiology.

Have you ever been told to test your thyroid levels a few hours after taking your medication? What if I told you that one small timing mistake could completely throw off your results—and lead to the wrong treatment plan? In this episode, I'm breaking down one of the most common (and costly) thyroid testing mistakes: drawing your labs at the wrong time. I explain why testing “at the peak” doesn't make sense scientifically, how it can create false high readings, and what actually happens in your body when you take T3 or NDT medication. You'll hear real examples from my own experiments and patients so you can finally understand what those lab numbers really mean—and when you should be testing for an accurate picture of your thyroid health. If you've been told your labs look “fine” but you still feel tired, foggy, or stuck with symptoms, this episode will make it all click. I'll teach you the timing strategy that can completely change how your medication is adjusted and how you feel every day. Don't miss it!

What's the best thyroid medication to be on — NDT, T4, T3, or a combination? And how do you actually know what's right for your body? In this episode, I'm breaking down the nuanced art of thyroid optimization — from natural desiccated thyroid (like Armour or NP) to biosynthetic options such as Synthroid, Tirosint, and Cytomel. I explain why there's no one-size-fits-all treatment, what to consider if you have Hashimoto's, and how fillers, conversion issues, and reverse T3 can all impact how you feel. You'll learn how to spot when your thyroid meds need tweaking, why “natural” doesn't always mean better, and how to use your labs and symptoms together to guide your treatment. If you've ever felt confused about which thyroid medication is best or frustrated that your current dose isn't working, this episode will give you the clarity, confidence, and questions to bring to your next appointment — so you can finally get the right combination, in the right dose, for you.

Episode 15 – Myth: Low fT3 Means You Just Need More T3 Many people struggling with chronic hypothyroid symptoms are told the answer is simple: “Your free T3 is low, so you just need more T3 medication.” But is that really the solution? In this episode of Thyroid Shorts, Dr. Eric Balcavage explains why low T3 is often an adaptive response to stress, not a sign that your body is broken. He explores how gut health, diet, inflammation, and immune activity drive thyroid conversion, and why simply adding T3 may provide temporary relief but can worsen long-term issues. Key insights include: Why the majority of T3 is produced outside the thyroid gland How dysbiosis, leaky gut, and inflammation reduce conversion The risks of overmedicating with T3 (immune suppression, anxiety, palpitations, and more thyroiditis) Practical strategies to restore healthy T4-to-T3 conversion through gut and lifestyle support If you've been chasing “optimal labs” with more medication but still feel unwell, this episode will give you a new perspective, and tools you can start using right away.

In this episode, #1 bestselling author and thyroid expert Elle Russ  discusses misconceptions and nuances behind Reverse T3 issues and T3-only dosing, including the problems with sustained-release T3 and why most people don't need to go directly to a T3-only dosing strategy.   FREEBIES: Free Thyroid Guide + Video Series: https://www.elleruss.com/thyroid-guide Free Confidence eBook & Workbook: https://www.elleruss.com/7secrets Elle's newsletter: https://www.elleruss.com/newletter   #theellerussshow

In this Thyroid Answers Shorts episode, Dr. Eric Balcavage explores the critical role your mitochondria—the true powerhouses of your cells—play in thyroid health and recovery. Too often, thyroid care focuses solely on optimizing lab values like TSH, Free T4, or Free T3. But true recovery isn't about chasing numbers. It's about understanding what happens inside your cells. Dr. Balcavage explains how cellular stress impacts mitochondrial function, how this stress disrupts thyroid hormone conversion, and why patients can still feel hypothyroid even when their labs look “normal.” In this episode, you'll learn: Why mitochondria are the missing link in thyroid recovery. How cellular stress shifts thyroid physiology away from homeostasis. Why simply adding more T4 or T3 may provide temporary relief but rarely leads to lasting recovery. Practical ways to support mitochondrial health and improve thyroid function. Whether you're on thyroid medication, exploring functional medicine, or still searching for answers, this episode will help you understand why addressing mitochondrial health is essential for lasting thyroid recovery.

What happens when too much T4 builds up in the body—and could it actually raise your risk of cancer? I'm digging into the latest studies that suggest a connection between high free T4 levels and cancer progression, and breaking down what this really means for anyone on thyroid medication. You'll hear why the issue isn't the pill itself, but the dosing, the conversion to T3, and how reverse T3 plays a hidden role in slowing down your entire system. I'll explain how T4 can mimic estrogen in certain cancers, why reverse T3 puts your body into “hibernation mode,” and the essential nutrients that can protect your thyroid and keep conversion running smoothly. If you've ever wondered whether your thyroid meds could be hurting you instead of helping—or if you want clarity on how to lower risk and finally feel better—this conversation will give you the answers you've been searching for.

This week isn't about two new cameras—or even four. We've got six brand-new cameras hitting the market, most of them from major manufacturers.

Why do so many people suddenly start losing weight when they finally escape a toxic relationship or environment? What if your body's stubborn weight isn't about willpower, metabolism, or even food - but about stored trauma keeping you in survival mode? When you're trapped in toxic relationships or environments, your body operates from what I call chronic functional freeze. This isn't just emotional - it's a complete biological shutdown that affects everything from your thyroid function to your detoxification pathways. Your metabolism hibernates, toxins accumulate, and your body holds onto weight as a survival strategy. In this Biology Behind It mini episode, I answer practitioner Zay's excellent question about why clients lose weight effortlessly after leaving toxic situations, even without doing deep healing work yet. I break down the hidden biology keeping you stuck and why your nervous system won't let go of excess weight until it feels truly safe. You'll hear more on: Why avoiding feelings creates a biology of energy conservation and metabolic shutdown How chronic functional freeze affects your thyroid hormones - including reverse T3 that doctors rarely test The connection between stored trauma and toxin accumulation that makes weight loss impossible Why detoxification pathways shut down when your nervous system is in survival mode How toxic relationships create the same biological effects as physical toxins Why your inner operating state drives all your body systems - not individual organ problems How creating inner safety naturally eliminates coping mechanisms like emotional eating The integrated approach to clearing both emotional and physical toxins safely Whether you've struggled with stubborn weight that won't budge despite your efforts, or you're supporting someone who's finally ready to leave a toxic situation, this episode reveals why your body refuses to let go until your nervous system feels safe. I give you hope that when you address the real root - stored trauma - your body naturally returns to health.

We have the next episode in our series of thyroid-focused podcasts today. In this episode, Dr. Shawn Tassone, Dr. Alan Christianson, and Dr. Amie Hornaman join me to dive into medications, treatment options, personal preferences, and the fear that often drives medical decision-making. We discuss the current prevalence of thyroid-related conditions and why iodine remains a controversial topic in thyroid physiology. We also cover the role of micronutrients and the impact and symptoms of hypothyroidism, clarifying the concept of thyroid pause, and the specific lab tests required for evaluation, in addition to sharing some practical strategies.  Dr. Shawn Tassone advocates for a personalized approach to thyroid treatment, often preferring desiccated or compounded medications over standard synthetics, depending on patient response, insurance coverage, and symptom relief. He also addresses the ongoing resistance within conventional endocrinology to T3-based therapies, despite clear clinical improvements in patients using them. Dr. Alan Christianson explains that the dramatic rise in thyroid disorders over recent decades is due to increased iodine exposure, particularly from processed foods, dairy, supplements, and cosmetics. While iodine is essential for thyroid function, even small excesses can overwhelm the system, triggering autoimmune responses. However, reducing iodine intake can significantly improve or even reverse thyroid dysfunction in many people. Dr. Amie Hornaman explains that optimal thyroid function is essential for overall health, and the active thyroid hormone, T3, is needed by every cell in the body. She highlights the importance of comprehensive thyroid testing to detect dysfunction often missed by standard TSH tests, particularly in women over 40 or those experiencing symptoms linked to perimenopause, menopause, or Hashimoto's. This enlightening conversation, with three leading thyroid authorities, is packed with valuable insights, so you should revisit it more than once.

If you're taking thyroid medication but still struggling with fatigue, brain fog, and weight gain despite "perfect" lab results, this episode will change everything. Dr. Eric Balcavage reveals why millions of thyroid patients are stuck in "Thyroid Purgatory" - where labs look optimal but symptoms persist - and introduces the groundbreaking concept of cellular hypothyroidism that explains why your cells may be rejecting the thyroid hormones you're taking.   Discover why the Cell Danger Response acts like a cellular security system, blocking thyroid hormone utilization even when blood levels are perfect. Learn why increasing medication doses often makes people feel worse, not better, and understand the real solution to breaking free from thyroid treatment frustration. What You'll Learn: Why "perfect" thyroid labs don't guarantee you'll feel better The Cell Danger Response and how it blocks thyroid hormone utilization Why cellular hypothyroidism is the missing piece in thyroid treatment How chronic stressors keep your cells in protection mode Why increasing T3 or switching medications often backfires The difference between thyroid management and true thyroid recovery Which cellular stressors might be sabotaging your treatment The Strategic Thyroid Solution approach to addressing root causes Real patient stories of breaking free from Thyroid Purgatory Perfect for: Thyroid patients frustrated with persistent symptoms despite treatment, those considering medication changes, anyone struggling with both hypothyroid and hyperthyroid symptoms, and healthcare practitioners seeking a deeper understanding of thyroid hormone resistance.

The humble mineral iodine might be the most overlooked yet critical component of your health puzzle. Dr. Lodi takes us on a deep dive into why this forgotten element deserves our attention, explaining how iodine deficiency undermines thyroid function and consequently weakens our immune system.Most of us are walking around with suboptimal iodine levels due to depleted soils and diets lacking in sea vegetables. The consequences? Our thyroid glands substitute other halogens like fluoride and bromide when creating hormones, resulting in molecules that measure as T3 and T4 but lack the biological activity necessary for health. "If you don't have a healthy thyroid, you won't have a healthy immune system. It's impossible," Dr. Lodi emphasizes, highlighting the fundamental connection between these systems.Restoring proper iodine levels requires a thoughtful approach - typically 25mg daily for at least a year. This restoration process creates a paradox where supplementing with iodine can temporarily suppress thyroid function, requiring simultaneous support with natural thyroid hormones. The medical establishment's puzzling "iodophobia" has created unnecessary fear around therapeutic iodine use, despite its historical safety record when properly administered.Beyond iodine, Dr. Lodi addresses practical questions about parasite protocols, vertigo treatment, and the mechanics of ketogenic diets. He explains the difference between dizziness caused by dehydration versus inner ear disturbances, offering specific solutions for each. His discussion of chronically fermenting cells (CFCs) provides a refreshing perspective on cancer, emphasizing the body's innate healing capabilities when properly supported.Throughout the conversation, Dr. Lodi reinforces the value of community support for healing journeys.

Are you still dragging through the day with that lingering fatigue, brain fog, or stubborn weight gain—even though you're faithfully taking your thyroid meds? Could the missing piece be T3?In this episode, we dive into the enduring T3 debate: is synthetic levothyroxine (T4) enough, or could adding T3—or going with natural desiccated thyroid (NDT)—be the key to finally feeling like yourself again?We'll explore:How T4-only therapy became the standard—and why it doesn't always deliver reliefWhat groundbreaking research reveals about T4 vs. T4+T3 vs. NDT—including why nearly half of patients prefer NDT, and how a significant number experience symptom relief when T3 is included The science behind hormone conversion—and why not everyone effectively turns T4 into the active T3 their bodies need Real-world challenges: navigating insurance, finding T3-friendly doctors, and mastering safe dosing timing to avoid overstimulation or sleep interference Why listen? If you're managing hypothyroidism and T4 alone isn't cutting it, this episode gives you the insight—and empowerment—you need to talk options with your provider and reclaim your vitality.

In today's episode, we're diving deep into Hashimoto's thyroiditis, one of the most common autoimmune disorders affecting women, with expert guest Teresa Kenney, NP. You'll learn what Hashimoto's is, how it differs from other thyroid conditions like hypothyroidism and Graves' disease, and why so many women in their 30s and 40s and beyond are being diagnosed. Teresa breaks down the basics, shares insight into testing and diagnosis, and helps us uncover the often-overlooked root causes of this condition, from stress and inflammation to gut health and nutrient deficiencies. She also offers clear, compassionate advice on lifestyle strategies, when medications might be necessary, and what true healing can look like. Whether you've recently been diagnosed, are still searching for answers, or want to support someone you love, this episode is packed with information, validation, and hope. Highlights from the Episode: What exactly is Hashimoto's, and how is it different from hypothyroidism or Graves' disease? Why women in their 30s and 40s are particularly vulnerable Symptoms that could signal an undiagnosed thyroid condition The real story behind “normal” labs and why many women still feel terrible The key labs to ask for—beyond just TSH (including Free T4, Free T3, (reverse T3) and Thyroid Antibody panel. How thyroid antibodies like TPO and Tg help identify autoimmune thyroid disease Root causes and triggers: stress, gut health, inflammation, and more Which nutrient deficiencies are most common in Hashimoto's How diet, sleep, and movement play a role in managing symptoms First steps if you've just been diagnosed and feel overwhelmed When medications are necessary, and how lifestyle changes still make a difference Can Hashimoto's go into remission? One thing we didn't get to touch upon in this episode is Low Dose Naltrexone and its use in Hashimotos, so check out our previous episode on this: Season 5 Episode 13!

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…   Anonymous: Hi Dr. Cabral, My OATs test came back with normal markers for bacteria and fungus. I was on an extremely low carb diet when I took the test and was wondering if that could cause a false negative. I have taken herbal Antimicrobials and garlic in the past which sometimes eliminates the bloating and brain fog and does so within a few days but only at double doses and only working temporarily. I have a few mild chronic fungal infections, IBS, cognitive symptoms, and MCAS. Do you think the issue is more likely related to an overgrowth or intestinal permeability caused by MCAS? How should I begin treatment since I am sensitive to many supplements? My food sensitivity test unfortunately showed a false negative to all foods.                                                                                                                                                                Zonia: Hello Dr. Cabral, Thank you for all your insightful information! My husband has lipoma's all over his body ranging from dime size to 1/2 tennis ball. His mom has them too, but very few. He started getting them removed by the dozen and I understand they can regrow. How can we help prevent the regrowth? Also, we have twins (B/G)and are there any labs that can determine if either have the genes or how to minimize the chances they will have any? Thank you in advance!      Chris: Hi Dr Cabral, regarding magnesium intake and supplemental H2: The tablets we have include 80 mg of magnesium for 8ppm H2. If you were going to rely on H2 tablets for your exclusive molecular hydrogen source, how many tablets would you take per day to maximize H2 benefits while maintaining advisable magnesium levels and not too much? Assuming 2 scoops of DNS at breakfast (50mg magnesium) + 2 Full Spectrum Magnesium caps at dinner (250mg). I've been varying from 1-3 H2 tablets/daily throughout the week. I stopped taking a scoop of your very delicious & effective Calming Magnesium before bed (300mg) in order to prioritize the benefits of Molecular Hydrogen, however, would love to add this back in if its not too much Magnesium with everything else. Thank you always.           Anonymous: Hi! I have a couple questions. Might have to submit two for the length. First is about thyroid. My thyroid labs are showing normal TSH .56, low free T4 1.33, low total T3 114, high reverse T3 17.20 & TPO high at 25. Does this indicate Hashimoto hypothyroidism? Is this fixable or will I be on supplements or meds for ever? Is TPO specific to the thyroid or is this indicative of autoimmune issues in general? Im curious what even causes these issues to begin with Thank you so much!                                                                                                                                                                    Anonymous: Hi again, 2nd question. I have a hard time gaining muscle & showing tone. I'm a petite person, and have never really shown muscle tone even in high school despite being in sports.After my third baby I lost muscle. I can tell by my body composition changes.I weigh less but look and feel like it's no muscle & more fat. A PT once was shocked at my glute weakness comparing it to the elder. If I ever take a break in exercising, for about two weeks or more I feel much weaker than before I even started, seems like my strength is decreasing rapidly if I get sedentary for even 2 weeks. Could this have an underlying cause or is this just how some of us are? Should I accept the fact that maybe I won't ever build or show much muscle tone? For reference, 33 y/o female, possible hashimotos and lipedema.       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/3488 - - - 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?

If you've ever been told your labs are “normal” but you still feel exhausted, foggy, or off, this episode is your game-changer. In Part 2 of our conversation with thyroid expert McCall McPherson, we go beyond the basics and dive into how to actually understand your lab results, and why so many women are dismissed or misdiagnosed because their numbers fall within outdated, generic ranges. Maria opens up about her own thyroid test results, and McCall breaks it all down: what's truly considered optimal (not just “in range”), what your TSH, T3, and antibodies are really saying, and how understanding your labs can help you take back your energy, mood, metabolism, and more. Because when you can read your labs like a thyroid expert, you stop guessing… and start healing smarter!! HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS:  "Normal" isn't optimal. Most lab ranges are based on averages of unwell people, which means you can feel awful and still be told you're "fine." True healing begins with optimal, not just acceptable. Your labs are a roadmap. TSH alone won't tell the full story. Understanding markers like Free T3, Free T4, Reverse T3, and antibodies can unlock the real reason you feel off and guide you toward real solutions. You can influence your results. Antibody levels can be improved with lifestyle changes. Tracking your labs over time empowers you to measure progress, reduce inflammation, and protect your thyroid health long-term.

This episode is a thyroid deep dive — a jam-packed conversation with Dr. Gary E. Foresman, MD of MiddlePathMedicine.com. We tackle the biggest myths, mistakes, and misunderstandings in thyroid treatment today. Here's what we cover: The FDA Ban on Natural Desiccated Thyroid (NDT): What it really means for patients. Medication Before Labs: Why you should never take T4/T3 or T3-only meds before a thyroid test. Dosing Myths Debunked: Why no practitioner should put an arbitrary limit on T4 or T3 dosing. Beyond T4 & T3: Do T1, T2, and calcitonin in NDT actually matter? Are T2 supplements worthwhile? Failed Research: How flawed medical studies have left thyroid patients in the dust. The TSH Suppression Myth: Why suppressed TSH on T4/T3 combos or T3-only therapy is NOT dangerous, doesn't cause arrhythmias or osteoporosis, and why outdated T4-only protocols from 30 years ago created decades of false fear. Reverse T3: Why this is a critical — and often ignored — test. Blood Sugar & Thyroid Hormones: How food satiety and glucose fluctuations can masquerade as thyroid issues (like tachycardia), and why it's not always your thyroid to blame. If you've ever been confused, dismissed, or gaslit about your thyroid health, this episode will give you the clarity (and firepower) you need!

什么样的知识，同时需要通过下田野、做木工、成为匠人、去攀岩、走遍世界、长时间痛苦思考来获得？ 「声东击西」在过去的节目中曾经采访过许多不同领域、不同类型的学者，但今天的这位嘉宾或许是其中最「田野」的一位：他在十多年的时间里，追踪调查了散落在闽浙山区中的 110 多座现存的编木拱桥。这里的「调查」包括攀爬到距离水面数米甚至更高的桥拱下进行测绘，以及跟着木匠师傅们一斧一凿地从零开始建起一座桥…… 这是一段关于知识、身体、田野与思维方式的漫长旅行，也是一种对「怎样才算真正理解一样东西」的自问自答。 在这期节目里，和我们一起去看见一座桥梁被搭建起来的过程，理解「编木拱桥」这种传统桥梁建造方式，理解「榫卯」，也看见一个人的知识体系、自我认知被打破重构的过程。 本期人物 徐涛，声动活泼联合创始人 刘妍，建筑历史学者 赛德，「声东击西」后期制作人 主要话题 [05:12] 从大学里的第一堂课到博士申请的敲门砖：一位学者与「桥」的结缘 [15:35] 在十几年前的闽浙山区，凭借纸质地图寻找遗存的编木拱桥 [24:12] 用最「笨」的测绘方法，却发现了灰尘之下四百年前的桥梁构筑痕迹 [32:07] 到工地去，跟着匠人们用斧子和凿子去做木工 [43:02] 从一个榫卯出发的「纸上得来终觉浅」 [54:07] 从脚下的田野到思想的重构 延伸阅读 Untitled https://media24.fireside.fm/file/fireside-uploads-2024/images/8/8dd8a56f-9636-415a-8c00-f9ca6778e511/v-jB75Wh.PNG 嘉宾刘妍出现的纪录片《但是还有书籍 第 3 季》第六集：《到田野去》 (https://www.bilibili.com/bangumi/play/ep1939339?from_spmid=666.19.0.0) 由哔哩哔哩出品，小河传媒联合出品的系列纪录片《但是还有书籍》第三季再度出发！走出书斋，和学者一起走向田野；深入生活，叩问作者书写的理由。既述说盲人群体的“但是还有书籍”，也直面图书行业的困境，呈现文字工作者在流量时代的生存博弈。 节目中提到的人物/概念/书籍等 刘西拉 1940年生人，中国土木工程专家，发展中国家工程科技院院士。本科、硕士毕业于清华大学土木工程系，获美国普渡大学博士学位。毕业后，先后在清华大学、上海交通大学任教，参与过首都机场T3航站楼、奥运会会议中心、央视新大楼等多个新建和改造加固项目的锚固和粘接工作。 绳墨/绳墨师傅 大木 榫卯 燕尾榫 如龙桥 《中国科学技术史·桥梁卷》 (https://book.douban.com/subject/1553699/) 《编木拱桥：技术与社会史》 (https://book.douban.com/subject/35635583/) 一席演讲《刘妍：今天不可能有人再造出如此惊险的大桥了》 (https://www.yixi.tv/h5/speech/735/) 给声东击西投稿 AI 正在取代更多工作吗？无论你是求职者、在职员工还是管理者，你有没有观察到某些工作任务、甚至岗位，好像正在被 AI 接手？对此你采取了哪些行动？又或者你有不一样的观点，都欢迎向我们投稿 你的声音可能出现在未来的节目当中，我们非常期待你的分享！ 投稿入口 (https://eg76rdcl6g.feishu.cn/share/base/form/shrcne1CGVaSeJwtBriW6yNT2dg) 你也可以直接通过邮箱直接联系节目组：kexuan@shengfm.cn 往期节目 #210 不失尊严的建筑，以及它所改变的生活 (https://etw.fm/210) #286 「林徽因们」与她们的遗忘史：发掘被隐没的女建筑师 (https://etw.fm/2087) 青少年节目「Knock Knock 世界」 Untitled https://media24.fireside.fm/file/fireside-uploads-2024/images/8/8dd8a56f-9636-415a-8c00-f9ca6778e511/Ci7z6fz9.png 今年 3 月，我们推出了一档专为青少年制作的播客节目：每期从一个青少年感兴趣的现象谈起，涉及商业、科技、社会和文化，解读表象背后的深层逻辑，启发青少年提出自己的好奇。每期 10 分钟，每周一三五更新。 前 3 期节目可以免费试听，可在各大平台搜索「Knock Knock 世界」收听； 小宇宙听友请点这里 (https://sourl.cn/sJfRsk) Apple Podcast 听友请点这里 (https://sourl.cn/Nckucx) 加入我们 声动活泼目前开放节目运营、社群运营、内容营销这三个市场部门岗位，以及 bd 经理和HR 行政助理、人才发展伙伴岗，详情点击招聘入口，加入声动活泼（在招职位速览） (加入声动活泼（在招职位速览）)，点击相应链接即可查看岗位详情及投递指南。 幕后制作 监制：可宣 内容实习生：飞扬 后期：赛德 运营：George 设计：饭团 商务合作 声动活泼商业化小队，点击链接可直达商务会客厅（商务会客厅链接：https://sourl.cn/QDhnEc ），也可发送邮件至 business@shengfm.cn 联系我们。 关于声动活泼 「用声音碰撞世界」，声动活泼致力于为人们提供源源不断的思考养料。 我们还有这些播客：不止金钱（2024 全新发布） (https://www.xiaoyuzhoufm.com/podcast/65a625966d045a7f5e0b5640)、跳进兔子洞第三季（2024 全新发布） (https://www.xiaoyuzhoufm.com/podcast/666c0ad1c26e396a36c6ee2a)、声东击西 (https://etw.fm/episodes)、声动早咖啡 (https://sheng-espresso.fireside.fm/)、What's Next｜科技早知道 (https://guiguzaozhidao.fireside.fm/episodes)、反潮流俱乐部 (https://fanchaoliuclub.fireside.fm/)、泡腾 VC (https://popvc.fireside.fm/)、商业WHY酱 (https://msbussinesswhy.fireside.fm/) 欢迎在即刻 (https://okjk.co/Qd43ia)、微博等社交媒体上与我们互动，搜索 声动活泼 即可找到我们。 也欢迎你写邮件和我们联系，邮箱地址是：ting@sheng.fm 获取更多和声动活泼有关的讯息，你也可以扫码添加声小音，在节目之外和我们保持联系！ 声小音 https://files.fireside.fm/file/fireside-uploads/images/8/8dd8a56f-9636-415a-8c00-f9ca6778e511/hdvzQQ2r.png Special Guests: 刘妍 and 赛德.
