Kelley Dennison, the 27-year-old Republican nominee for Colorado's 2nd Congressional District, has been dubbed “America's First Goth Baddie” — and she's aiming to flip a seat that's voted Democrat for more than 50 years. A tattooed, Gen-Z massage therapist raised by “JFK Democrats”, Dennison says the principles she grew up on “don't pay my bills” and calls herself the Republican Party's “tactical nuke option” for winning over unaffiliated voters. She joins Dr. Drew live to talk affordability, her Colorado-first platform, and why she hopes to inspire more of Gen-Z to run for office. Attorney Viva Frei discusses the Canadian wildfire smoke choking millions of Americans and the GOP senator readying a bill of sanctions over what he calls deliberate government mismanagement. William Parker Ph.D. discusses his book “Tylenol and Autism” and the White House hypothesis connecting acetaminophen exposure to autism. Kelley Dennison was dubbed “America's First Goth Baddie” after running as an unorthodox conservative for Congress in Colorado's 2nd District. She is a Colorado native, business owner, and activist focused on economic affordability and energy stability.

In the fall of 1982, seven people in the Chicago area died after taking Tylenol capsules that had been laced with cyanide. The victims ranged from a 12-year-old girl to a young mother who had just given birth. None of them knew each other, and none of them had any idea what was in the bottles sitting in their medicine cabinets. The killings triggered a nationwide panic, transformed how every over-the-counter medication is packaged, and gave rise to the term "product tampering" as a federal crime. But more than four decades later, no one has ever been charged with the murders. In this episode of Murder: True Crime Stories, host Carter Roy revisits one of the most chilling unsolved cases in American history, the suspects who came and went over the years, and the question that still haunts investigators: who walked into those stores, and why did they choose Tylenol?Head over to our Murder True Crime Stories YouTube channel to WATCH our video episodes: https://www.youtube.com/@MurderTrueCrimeStoriesIf you're new here, don't forget to follow Murder: True Crime Stories to never miss a case!

This Day in Legal History: The Sedition Act of 1798On July 14, 1798, Congress passed the Sedition Act, the most notorious of the four laws known collectively as the Alien and Sedition Acts. The Sedition Act made it a federal crime to write, print, utter, or publish “any false, scandalous and malicious writing” against the government of the United States, the Congress, or the President—with the intent to defame them or bring them into disrepute. In plain terms, it criminalized criticism of the government.The context was a Federalist administration, under President John Adams, gripped by fear of France and of domestic dissent, and eager to silence the opposition press aligned with Thomas Jefferson's Republicans. And that's exactly how it was used. Federal prosecutors went after Republican newspaper editors and even a sitting congressman, securing convictions for the crime of harsh political speech. Notably, the Act was written to expire in 1801—conveniently, the moment Adams's term would end—so that it could be wielded against his critics but would not outlive his own hold on power.The reaction was fierce and consequential. Jefferson and James Madison drafted the Kentucky and Virginia Resolutions arguing the Act was unconstitutional, and the ensuing backlash helped sweep Jefferson into the presidency in 1800; once in office, he pardoned those convicted under it. The Sedition Act was never tested at the Supreme Court, but history rendered its verdict. More than a century and a half later, in New York Times v. Sullivan, the Court looked back and declared that the Act's assault on free expression had been repudiated “in the court of history,” using it as a touchstone for modern First Amendment law. The lesson of July 14, 1798 endures: laws that punish criticism of the government are almost always tools of the powerful against their critics—and a free press is most necessary precisely when the state would prefer it silent.Federal prosecutors have issued subpoenas seeking to compel four New York Times journalists to testify before a Manhattan grand jury, part of a leak investigation into the paper's reporting on security concerns surrounding President Trump's flight on the new Qatari-donated Air Force One. Federal agents delivered some of the subpoenas to the reporters' homes. Here's the legal terrain. There is no absolute federal reporter's privilege—the Supreme Court held decades ago that the First Amendment doesn't categorically shield journalists from grand jury subpoenas—but the Justice Department has long operated under internal guidelines that made going after reporters a last resort. Those guardrails matter here, because in 2025 Attorney General Pam Bondi rescinded the Biden-era policy that had sharply limited subpoenas against journalists, restoring broader authority to pursue them. The Times says it will fight, and can ask a court to quash the subpoenas as overbroad, issued in bad faith, or violating the First Amendment. The significance is the pressure this puts on newsgathering: when the government can subpoena reporters to unmask their sources, sources stop talking, and the kind of national-security reporting at issue here gets harder to do. Press-freedom groups warn this administration has reached for subpoenas and search warrants against journalists—at the Times, the Post, and the Wall Street Journal—more freely than its predecessors.Explainer: Can prosecutors compel New York Times journalists to testify in leak probe? | ReutersA federal judge has voided President Trump's roughly $1.78 billion settlement with the IRS, delivering a scathing rebuke and referring his lawyers for possible discipline. The backstory is unusual. Trump sued his own administration in January over the leak of his tax returns, and by late May had reached a deal with the IRS to create an “anti-weaponization” fund and to “forever bar” the government from any action related to his past tax returns—protection extending to his family and businesses. U.S. District Judge Kathleen Williams found the whole thing was a setup. The core legal defect is the absence of what courts call adverseness. Federal courts can only decide genuine “cases or controversies”—real disputes between opposing parties. Here, Judge Williams wrote, “there was never adverseness between the Parties; there was never a case or controversy; and there was never a question as to who would prevail,” because Trump was effectively suing himself, with his own Justice Department on the other side agreeing to lose. She found the case was brought for an improper purpose: to get a court's stamp of legitimacy on a settlement with no basis in law or fact. She sanctioned Trump's attorneys and referred one, Alejandro Brito, to the Florida bar, and suggested Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche should face discipline too. The significance is a court refusing to be used as a rubber stamp—insisting that its legitimacy can't be borrowed to bless a collusive deal dressed up as litigation.US judge voids Trump's settlement with IRS | ReutersA federal appeals court has revived more than 500 private lawsuits against Kenvue, the maker of Tylenol, alleging that acetaminophen use during pregnancy caused autism and ADHD in children—and here it's worth being clear about the science before the law. There is no firm scientific evidence that Tylenol causes autism or ADHD. The most rigorous recent research, including a large Swedish sibling-comparison study of millions of children, found no causal link once you control for genetic and environmental factors shared within families; mainstream medical bodies continue to regard acetaminophen as one of the safer pain and fever options in pregnancy, and untreated high fevers carry their own real risks. So this ruling is not a finding that Tylenol is dangerous. What the Second Circuit actually decided was narrower and procedural: that the trial judge had wrongly excluded the plaintiffs' expert witnesses. Under the rules governing expert testimony, judges act as “gatekeepers,” admitting expert opinion only if it rests on reliable methodology. The district court had tossed the plaintiffs' experts as unreliable; the appeals court, per Judge Guido Calabresi, said their methods reflected approaches other scientists use and amounted to “acceptable interpretations of scientific evidence where scientists may, and in fact do, disagree.” Crucially, the court stressed it was not deciding whether Tylenol actually causes these conditions. The significance is about who weighs contested science—the ruling lets juries, not just judges, hear the dispute, which is a real win for the plaintiffs procedurally even though the underlying causation case remains, on the current evidence, weak.US appeals court revives private lawsuits linking Tylenol to autism, ADHD | ReutersAnd finally, in my column for Bloomberg Tax this week, I take on a counterintuitive idea: that big corporate taxpayers may come to miss the boring, predictable world of administrative tax law now that the Supreme Court has overruled Chevron deference. My argument, in short, is that a weaker IRS and Treasury is not the unalloyed win a lot of multinationals assume it is.Here's the setup. For forty years, under Chevron, courts deferred to a federal agency's reasonable interpretation of an ambiguous statute. With Chevron gone, courts no longer have to defer to Treasury's reading of the tax code just because the statute is vague and the agency has expertise. A lot of corporate taxpayers cheered that—less agency power sounds like more freedom. But my point is that killing Chevron did nothing to remove the underlying ambiguity in the tax code; it just moved the job of resolving that ambiguity to a different desk. And there are only two other desks it can land on, and I don't love either one for a company that wants predictability.The first desk belongs to the courts. If Treasury can't issue as many binding, prospective rules, then more of these questions get resolved through litigation—case by case, on particular records, often years after the transactions are done. Courts are built to handle controversies, not to administer a global corporate tax system. The Coca-Cola transfer-pricing fight is the stress test I point to: a company may win a great refund that way, but you can't organize a multinational's affairs around the hope that every ambiguous question turns into a bespoke judicial adventure. The second desk belongs to Congress, which is the more democratically satisfying answer—Congress writes the code and is politically accountable. But in practice Congress moves slowly and episodically, usually only when tax changes ride along on some bigger budget deal. By the time Congress fixes an international tax problem, the business model that created it has been reorganized twice and pivoted to something involving AI.So the core of my argument is that corporate taxpayers need to distinguish between a useful litigation win and a stable legal environment—those two things don't always travel together. A bad but clear rule can be modeled and planned around; an ambiguous rule, as I put it, isn't really a rule, it's a threat in the shape of a Treasury notice. My prescription is that Congress should make clearer, more deliberate delegations where technical administration is unavoidable—transfer pricing, international tax, anti-abuse rules—and that Treasury should do a post-Chevron audit of its own regulations to flag where the code is asking too much of administration and too little of legislation. Because the real choice here isn't between IRS power and taxpayer freedom. It's between prospective administration and retroactive improvisation—and multinationals may get their wish, see the IRS diminished, and then find themselves stuck with rules everyone knows are broken but no one can fix.Big Corporate Taxpayers Need More Clarity in a Post-Chevron World | Bloomberg Tax This is a public episode.

La vérité a-t-elle toujours une place dans notre monde? La vérité a encore une place dans notre monde, mais elle est fragilisée par la polarisation, les fake news et la confusion entre opinions et faits. Pour qu'elle demeure importante dans les milieux d'Églises, nous devons questionner nos certitudes, distinguer faits et opinions, et privilégier une recherche sincère fondée sur l'humilité et l'échange. Dans cet épisode, Joan et Stéphane reçoivent Yana-Malena Charras-Sancho. Ensemble, il et elles montrent que chacun tend à construire sa propre « vérité », influencée par ses croyances et son environnement et soulignent qu'elle demeure essentielle pour dialoguer et se comprendre. [Stéphane] Bonjour, bienvenue à Question de croire, un podcast qui s'intéresse à la foi et la spiritualité, une question à la foi. Cette semaine, la vérité a-t-elle toujours une place dans notre monde? [Joan] Bonjour Stéphane. [Stéphane] Bonjour Joan. Bonjour à toutes les personnes à l'écoute. [Joan] Aujourd'hui, nous avons une « special guest, » une invitée spéciale que je recommande à tout le monde parce qu'elle est hyper sympa, hyper intelligente. Elle vient d'une famille très, très cool. Il s'agit de Yana-Malena Charras-Sancho, notre deuxième fille. [Yana-Malena] Bonjour à tous. Je suis la fille de Joan qui fait ce podcast. [Stéphane] Bonjour et bienvenue. Quand la vérité dérange [Joan] J'ai remarqué que la vérité n'a pas tellement une place dans notre monde. Ça m'est arrivé, il n'y a pas longtemps, le 8 mars. C'est un peu triste, ce dont je vais parler. Et en même temps, j'ai l'impression qu'il faut en parler. Donc, on avait un culte là où on habite. J'ai fait bien attention, comme c'est un dimanche, à saluer toutes les femmes, même celles qui ne me connaissent pas, celles qui ne savent pas que je suis pasteure et que je suis la femme du nouveau pasteur. J'ai vraiment pris attention : « Bonjour, belle journée à vous! C'est notre journée. C'est la journée du 8 mars. » J'ai essayé de donner plusieurs versions de cette petite interpellation au sororal. Une dame que j'aime beaucoup, une dame avec une très belle vie de foi, un cœur grand comme ça m'a dit : « Bof! À quoi ça peut bien servir? Enfin, je ne sais pas moi. 8 mars, ouaf! » Puis je lui ai dit : « Mais si, ça sert! Ça sert parce qu'il y a tant et tant de femmes qui sont battues, parce qu'une femme sur cinq ceci, parce qu'un enfant sur quatre cela… » J'ai commencé à dérouler des chiffres. Autour d'elle, il y avait d'autres femmes et les visages sont devenus longs. J'ai vu qu'en fait, la vérité, ça ne plaît pas beaucoup. Et bon, je n'étais pas contente. Je dois dire qu'à la fin de mon exposé, je n'étais plus si en paix, alors qu'au début, j'étais assez joyeuse de souhaiter ce 8 mars. Quelques jours après, on s'est retrouvées et puis c'est vrai qu'on s'est un peu pris les mains. On s'est un peu présenté des excuses mutuellement. On s'est un peu dit que cette situation était gênante pour les deux. Voilà, on a retrouvé un chemin de sororité. Mais je me dis, la vérité de l'oppression, la vérité de la souffrance, la vérité des combats à mener, ça n'a pas toujours sa place. Une société fragmentée où la vérité ne rassemble plus [Stéphane] Nous vivons dans un monde très polarisé où chacun vit dans sa propre vérité. On se construit des discours, on se construit des argumentations, on se construit des façons de penser basées sur des chiffres plus ou moins vérifiés ou des statistiques qui font nos affaires et on oublie facilement les autres statistiques. On arrive dans une société où on ne parle plus de la même chose. On ne s'entend plus. On n'est plus capable de se parler. Et il y a un problème de ce côté-là, parce que sans vouloir que tous et toutes soient unis, au moins, si on peut utiliser les mêmes chiffres, les mêmes données, des arguments similaires, on peut se rejoindre. Entre opinion et savoir : peut-on encore parler d'une seule vérité ? [Yana-Malena] C'est vrai qu'il faut aussi remettre au cœur du débat ce qu'est la vérité en elle-même, parce que quand on dit qu'on vit un peu chacun dans notre vérité, ça nous fait nous demander si on a plusieurs vérités. Est-ce qu'on peut encore parler de vérité? En philosophie, Platon, il distingue la doxa, qui est l'opinion de l'épistémè, qui est le savoir vrai, et selon Platon, l'épistémè c'était quelque chose qu'on cultive et qui relève d'une étude et qui ensuite doit être transmis, au-delà de la doxa qui est l'opinion même. Donc là, on se demande si chacun vit dans sa vérité et si ce n'est pas ça qui polarise le monde finalement. Il s'agit de voir comment est-ce qu'on peut, dans notre monde d'aujourd'hui, remettre la vérité au cœur du débat et donc d'essayer de trouver un terrain d'entente. Moi, c'est ça qui m'émeut dans la vérité aujourd'hui. Est-ce qu'elle est encore possible quand on affirme tous qu'on a une vérité, alors qu'elle est forcément fausse par définition, puisqu'on sait qu'on a tous une vérité, il n'y en a pas? Entre convictions personnelles et vérités universelles [Joan] Moi, je me demande souvent comment distinguer la vérité de ma croyance. Parce que ma croyance, elle me nourrit, elle me porte. Et puis, ce sont des éléments véritables de la vie quotidienne, finalement. Moi, par exemple, ma vérité, c'est que j'ai besoin de faire du Pilates régulièrement, puis ça me fait du bien. Et puis, je n'arrête pas de dire à tout le monde, c'est super le Pilates, faites du Pilates. Ça, c'est ma croyance qui est devenue pour moi une vérité universelle. En même temps, il me semble quand même qu'en dehors de ma croyance, il y a des vérités qui sont un peu universelles. J'en prends une, elle est énorme, elle est massive : le dérèglement climatique. Et je me dis, comment ça se fait qu'on n'arrive pas à passer de la croyance à la vérité, de poser un peu nos convictions, de dire, OK, c'est vrai que mes convictions, peut-être, je crois au concept de la Terre nouvelle et des cieux nouveaux, mais ça ne m'empêche pas de réaliser que le dérèglement climatique cause du tort à des milliards d'humains. Donc voilà, c'est un peu cette différence-là qui, des fois, me questionne. Les faits existent, mais leur interprétation façonne la « vérité » [Stéphane] Ça me fait penser, quand je faisais mes études en théologie, il y a de ça quelques décennies, on avait eu une discussion justement sur qu'est-ce que LA vérité, avec un V majuscule, si je peux dire. J'arrivais d'une formation d'historien des années 1990 avec les théories de déconstruction narrative, l'absence de neutralité des sources, l'illusion de l'objectivité, etc. J'étais un peu cynique par rapport à cette conversation. Oui, il y a des données. Oui, il y a des faits. Mais c'est toujours organisé selon notre point de vue. L'exemple que je donne souvent, c'est que nous sommes ensemble. Nous voyons un accident de voiture. Comment chacun va raconter cet accident de voiture risque d'être d'une manière très différente pour des raisons culturelles, des raisons d'âge, des raisons de plein d'autres choses. Mais l'accident a eu lieu. C'est le même accident. Oui, il y a des faits. Oui, il y a des données. Mais comment ces faits, comment ces données sont organisées, c'est là qu'il faut faire attention avant de proclamer que c'est la vérité. Une vérité qui éclaire, sans dominer [Joan] C'est la raison pourquoi moi, le verset : « Je suis le chemin, la vérité et la vie » me parle à titre personnel. Vraiment, ça me nourrit. Mais ça me rend dingue lorsqu'il est utilisé pour avoir de l'emprise ou du pouvoir sur les autres. Pour moi c'est un peu comme si on avait une lampe torche hyper puissante et qu'on la braquait sur le visage des autres au lieu de s'en servir pour éclairer les lieux les plus sombres et éviter par exemple des drames : tomber ou être agressé quoi. En fait c'est un peu ça le « distinguo » que je ferais. Oui ce verset est beau. Il est porteur, mais selon comment je l'utilise, en fait il peut faire du mal. Entre autorité et dévoilement : les usages ambivalents de la vérité [Yana-Malena] C'est vrai que la vérité, elle peut être utilisée de plusieurs manières. Et puis, la vérité, à la base, quand on dit qu'on détient une vérité, c'est quelque part pour marquer son autorité et sa légitimité. Par exemple, quand on regarde les institutions aujourd'hui, on constate que ces institutions, elles se basent à l'origine sur le fait qu'elles détiennent une vérité que les autres n'ont pas et qu'elles permettent de garantir cette vérité. Par exemple, quand on parle de la justice, la justice estime qu'elle peut trancher dans des situations, lequel des deux points de vue est le véritable, lequel correspond aux véritables règles de la société, et en fonction des lois c'est elle qui la détient et qui a l'expertise de ces lois. Pareil pour la science, la science estime qu'elle détient la vérité parce qu'elle a les outils, elle a les moyens, elle a les experts. Et donc c'est vrai que dans ce verset : « Je suis le chemin et la vérité, » pourquoi est-ce qu'on utiliserait la vérité pour exercer du pouvoir sur les autres? Pourquoi est-ce qu'on s'en servirait pour marquer une autorité?  Alors que dans son origine grecque, la vérité c'est aletheia, donc dévoilement. Donc, quelque part, c'est plutôt une expérience qui ouvre les yeux, « le mythe de la caverne » de Platon, plutôt qu'une vérité qui assujettit. Je suis d'accord qu'aujourd'hui, quand on regarde l'état actuel du monde, la vérité est utilisée pour exercer une force sur les autres. C'est comme Trump, quand il déploie des fake news, qu'il invente des guerres entre des pays, ou bien qu'il dit encore que le Tylenol, ça crée de l'autisme. Quelque part, il essaie d'imposer son pouvoir. Il dit : « Je suis la vérité! C'est moi qui sais! Je suis le président des États-Unis! Je suis Jésus ». Je veux dire, là, on a une déclaration qui est vraiment fausse, elle est ouvertement fausse, et pourtant, elle est affirmée comme telle. Donc c'est vrai qu'aujourd'hui, l'utilisation de la vérité, elle est vraiment, vraiment complexe. Quand l'autorité s'approprie la vérité et en détourne le sens [Stéphane] C'est un très bon lien entre autorité et vérité. Je crois qu'on n'en parle pas assez, ou qu'on ne le souligne pas assez. Mon pasteur le dit, donc c'est vrai… ou tel leader politique… ou tel influenceur sur les médias sociaux… peu importe. Lorsque les paroles de figures d'autorité sont utilisées pour dominer les autres, là c'est vrai qu'il y a un problème. Jésus dit : « Je suis la vérité » et il y a des chrétiens qui utilisent ça pour dire que nous avons la vraie religion. Notre Église, c'est la vraie Église. Jésus n'a pas dit : « Mes disciples sont la vérité. Je suis la vérité. » Déjà en partant, il y a un écart que les gens s'approprient. Je me souviens que j'ai eu une discussion avec quelqu'un. J'avais fait une vidéo sur TikTok. La personne n'était pas d'accord. Moi je lui ai dit : « Écoute, moi je viens de l'Église Unie du Canada. Notre théologie est comme ça, blablabla… » Et lui, il me dit : « Moi je vais à tel endroit, puis on y enseigne la vérité, la vraie façon de lire la Bible. » Selon qui? Selon ton pasteur? Selon tes préférences personnelles? Il faut faire attention. Je peux vivre avec Jésus est la vérité, mais juste Jésus à la limite, pas moi qui essaie d'être son disciple et qui essaie de suivre son chemin. Je ne suis pas la vérité. Entre fake news et courage prophétique : dire une vérité qui dérange [Joan] Avant, tu as parlé des fake news, Yana-Malena, et c'est vrai qu'on nous demande parfois que faire avec les fake news quand on est pasteur. « J'ai lu ça, j'ai vu ça, qu'est-ce que vous en pensez? » Comme si on avait un petit surplus de lucidité, ou bien comme si on avait un regard, je ne sais pas, chrétien, ministériel sur le monde. Moi, en fait, je n'ai pas l'impression que la Bible m'aide spécialement à distinguer les fake news des vraies news. J'ai surtout l'impression que c'est le fait de soutenir des médias indépendants, des écoles de journalisme, de soutenir les journalistes d'Église autour de nous. Déjà, si on commençait par là, ce serait pas mal. Par exemple, j'ai une très bonne amie qui a quitté le milieu du journalisme pour retourner au pastorat. J'aime beaucoup discuter avec elle parce qu'avec son regard de journaliste, elle a plein d'autres portes d'entrée que moi. Donc c'est à ça que je pense quand je dis soutenir, rester en lien, avoir des contacts journalistiques. Et c'est vrai qu'on peut aussi se demander est-ce qu'en période de crise, (et est-ce qu'on est en période de crise?), est-ce que notre prédication est là pour établir une vérité factuelle? Est-ce que c'est quelque chose qui est attendu par nos communautés, par nos directions d'Église? Je pense tout de suite, et vous aussi j'imagine, à l'Église confessante de Bonhoeffer, le fait que Bonnefer avait vraiment soutenu tout ce mouvement-là, de dire il faut dire la vérité, il faut appeler le nazisme, le nazisme, il faut dire quand l'évangile est dévoyé. Est-ce que c'est à nous de le faire là maintenant? J'ai été très surprise hier. Il y avait les journées mondiales de jeunesse à Payerne, dans La Broye vaudoise en Suisse, et l'un des évêques suisses est venu, un francophone, et il a prêché contre la guerre. Tiens, tu aurais été content Stéphane! Il a vraiment suivi la ligne du pape Léon sur la démilitarisation, sur cesser cette espèce de bras de fer mondial, sur le fait que les populations s'ouvrent, sur le fait qu'en fait notre seul défenseur c'est le Christ et que quand on adopte ce défenseur on n'a pas besoin de la force physique, qu'on a la paix en nous qui nous vient du Christ. J'ai trouvé ça très courageux parce qu'il y avait quand même 200 jeunes, pas mal de responsables de la jeunesse, et puis c'était retransmis en direct sur Radio Maria. Donc j'ai trouvé que là, il y avait quelque chose de l'ordre du courage de dire une vérité, une vérité qui peut déranger. Ça rejoint en plus notre épisode sur le nationalisme chrétien, puisqu'il a osé dire dans sa prédication : « Être chrétien, ce n'est pas défendre le nationalisme chrétien. » C'est épatant! En plus, on avait les gardes suisses, on avait quand même des symboles d'autorité qui étaient là, qui représentaient les anciens mercenaires suisses qui sont la garde vaticane. Mais il a dit tout ça très tranquillement, très paisiblement, très ancré en lui-même. Alors voilà, est-ce qu'il a fait œuvre de vérité? Est-ce qu'il a répondu à cet appel de Dietrich Bonhoeffer et d'autres? À mon sens, oui, un peu. On dirait qu'en plus, il est soutenu par sa hiérarchie pour ça. Ça me laisse un peu rêveuse. * Photo de Allen Cai, unsplash.com. Utilisée avec permission. Fake news, foi et vérité : l'exigence d'une honnêteté intellectuelle [Yana-Malena] C'est vrai que moi, quand tu parlais des fake news et du rapport à la Bible, je me suis demandé si, quelque part, la Bible en elle-même, prise par ses lecteurs, ce ne serait pas en fait un ensemble de fake news. Je m'explique. On a beaucoup de lecteurs de la Bible et on a beaucoup de témoignages dans la Bible. Et la Bible, elle s'appelle la Bible et non pas aletheia ou la vérité. Donc la Bible, elle se veut elle-même réflexion. Elle se veut changeante et peut-être même qu'elle se veut quelque part fake news, dans le sens où elle va provoquer des réflexions chez les gens et quelque part, ça pourrait mener à des affirmations, et donc un ensemble de fake news. Par exemple, Stéphane, toi tu disais que sur Internet, des fois, tu avais des débats avec des gens. Ça m'arrive aussi sur Instagram où j'ai malheureusement un feed qui est beaucoup axé sur le rapport entre féminisme et religion, et notamment religion chrétienne. Il y avait cette jeune femme qui disait : « En fait, être féministe et chrétienne, c'est comme être un poulet qui soutient KFC. » Du coup, moi, j'ai lu ça. Je me suis énervée au plus profond de moi-même. Je pense que quelque part, j'ai failli taper un truc. Après, j'en ai parlé à ma psy et j'ai décidé de prendre parti. J'ai écrit un très, très long commentaire en disant, en fait, tu ne peux pas être féministe et dire aux chrétiens et chrétiennes qu'ils ont tort de croire en leur religion. Tu ne peux pas prôner la liberté de la femme et la liberté de l'oppression en étant toi-même une oppression. Après, j'ai eu aussi des féministes bizarres, des chrétiennes qui utilisaient la Bible comme quoi, tu n'es pas censée avoir un avis de toute manière et tout. Moi, j'ai halluciné. J'ai découvert qu'en fait, il y avait des chrétiennes qui créaient des fake news à partir de la Bible, comme quoi je n'avais pas le droit de donner mon avis ou des trucs comme ça, ou même des femmes qui disaient à la fin de la vidéo qu'elles n'avaient elles-mêmes pas le droit de donner leur avis. Et là, j'étais scotchée. Je me suis dit, c'est dangereux. Les gens qui prennent la Bible au pied de la lettre et les gens qui ne la prennent pas du tout.  J'ai trouvé que les deux extrêmes étaient d'une violence folle. C'est pour ça que là, le lien entre fake news et Bible, je me suis dit, les gens, en fait, ils se créent une fausse vérité outrageante et après, ils sont incapables de la questionner. C'est pour ça que moi, le rapport à la vérité aujourd'hui, j'avais envie de le remettre sur le critère de la compétence, sur le critère de l'honnêteté intellectuelle, en fait. Aujourd'hui, j'ai l'impression que ce qui va au-dessus de la vérité en elle-même, c'est le pouvoir et la fierté. Parce qu'aujourd'hui, on est dans un monde où, en fait, on n'a plus de fierté, on n'a plus confiance en nous parce qu'on est dans un monde qui nous aliène, en fait. On est dans un monde où on est complètement asservi aux réseaux sociaux, à Internet, aux gens, aux relations, aux critères sociaux, au patriarcat, parlons-en. Et en fait, on se repose sur ce qu'on peut. Je pense que la foi, il faut qu'elle revienne au cœur du débat. Comme Jésus l'avançait : « Je suis la vérité », c'est-à-dire, regarde ma vie et réfléchis. Jésus ne dit pas d'aller imposer des choses aux gens. Il dit en fait regarder ma vie et réfléchissez. C'est là que toute la Bible, toute la foi et toute la vérité prennent leur ampleur, c'est un dévoilement. Tu te mets de côté, tu mets ta fierté de côté et tu regardes en fait, c'est quoi ma compétence? Qu'est-ce que je sais? Qu'est-ce que les autres gens ont à apprendre? C'est juste être honnête, en fait. Je ne sais pas de quoi je parle. Je n'ai pas vécu dans une Église. Je n'ai pas vécu de violences patriarcales, je ne sais pas. Tu es juste honnête avec toi-même. Et moi, c'est vraiment ça pour moi, c'est l'honnêteté intellectuelle. L'humilité face aux limites de notre compréhension de la vérité [Stéphane] J'ajouterais peut-être un peu d'humilité. Parfois, on affirme : « Jésus a dit ceci, Jésus a dit cela. »  Je n'étais pas là. Je n'étais pas là il y a 2000 ans. Donc cette certitude se base sur quoi? Se base sur des faits rapportés? Ce sont les célèbres questions : comment Jésus a-t-il pu nourrir 5000 personnes avec cinq pains et deux poissons? Ma réponse, souvent, est : je ne le sais pas. Le récit que nous avons nous dit que… Moi je crois que… mais je ne peux pas vous l'affirmer hors de tout doute. Si on pousse la réflexion, est-ce que Jésus a vraiment existé? Selon les normes et les témoignages de l'époque, on croit que oui. Mais là, il y a toujours quelqu'un qui dit : « Ah! Tels historiens, ils exagèrent et embellissent la vérité. »   Ça, c'est mon côté de formation d'historien qui va parler. Mais la notion de vérité, il y a 2000 ans, n'était pas la même que celle d'aujourd'hui. Et fort probablement, 2000 ans dans le futur, ils risquent de nous regarder aujourd'hui, ils risquent de ricaner un peu. « Ah! ces gens du début des années 2000, ils étaient naïfs. Ils croyaient n'importe quoi. » Je pense qu'il y a aussi cette notion-là de dire que je ne sais pas tout. Nous ne pouvons pas tout savoir. Voici ce que nous comprenons. Voici les outils que nous utilisons. Essayons quand même de demeurer humbles, parce que lorsqu'on essaie de s'affirmer trop fort, lorsqu'on essaie de bomber le torse, lorsqu'on essaie d'établir une domination, comme vous l'avez dit, ça conduit toujours à de mauvaises places. Entre déni et inertie : quand la vérité cède au confort et aux habitudes [Joan] Je suis contente qu'on parle de cette notion d'honnêteté intellectuelle et puis toi, Stéphane, que tu parles de nous conduire à des mauvaises places lorsqu'on prend une certaine posture, parce qu'on découvre que « Les protocoles des sages de Sion » continuent à circuler. Ça, c'est quand même complètement délirant. Alors là, on va se dire que c'est vraiment immense, comme fake news, et ça dure depuis près d'un siècle. Mais quand on voit que la carte Mercator continue à être utilisée avec son Afrique minuscule, et qu'on nous l'a enseignée à l'école et que l'on continue à l'enseigner à nos enfants, on se dit, mais alors là, c'est un choix. Là, on est déjà dans des choix idéologiques, des choix politiques, des choix de politique internationale. Maintenant, on va arriver vers nos boutiques à nous, comme ça tout le monde en prend pour son grade, j'ai découvert dans un article que la dernière révision de la traduction œcuménique de la Bible, à 50 ans, Pardon? Ça veut dire que la même TOB avec laquelle mon mari et moi on a fait les études, c'est la même que celle avec laquelle notre fille aînée Marysol fait ses études? Non, mais on ne devrait même plus la vendre à ce stade. Il faut arrêter. 50 ans sans être révisé? Avec tout ce qui s'est passé en 50 ans en termes de réflexion sur le genre, les oppressions, le postcolonialisme, mais ce n'est pas possible. Maintenant on arrive vraiment à mon point touchy, le truc qui peut m'énerver matin, midi et soir sans problème, même quand je suis en train de faire un jacuzzi, c'est le fait qu'on ait un livret de cantique qui a déjà 20 ans. L'autre fois, je l'ai dit à quelqu'un qui me dit : « Oui, mais on ne connaît pas encore tous les cantiques du livret. » Je lui dis : « Bon, en même temps, il a 20 ans. » Il me dit : « Non! » Je lui dis « Mais si! c'est marqué dedans. » « Tu vois, pour moi, je n'aurais jamais cru. Oh! mais c'est fou. » « Ben ouais, c'est fou. » Ça fait 20 ans qu'on se farcit, justement, un livret de cantiques dont on chante peut-être 10% quand tout va bien. C'est incroyable! Pour moi, c'est tellement d'exemples de déni, de choix qui ne se justifient pas par la raison ou par une quelconque notion de vérité, de ce qui est bon, mais par le confort, une forme d'inaction. Ils disent : « Et puis on a pris l'habitude maintenant et de la TOB et du livret de cantiques et puis il faudrait s'organiser, trouver des gens pour le faire… » Mais bien sûr, mais il faut le faire en fait. Il y a des questions de justice sociale derrière. La quête de vérité à l'ère de la post-vérité et du doute [Yana-Malena] Aujourd'hui, la vérité, c'est quelque chose qui est en danger. La post-vérité, c'est tout un concept qui nous fait questionner la possibilité d'une vérité même à l'ère de l'IA, des réseaux sociaux, de la pluralité des points de vue. En fait, il faut aller au-delà de la paresse. Et il faut faire l'effort, comme on dit, humilité, honnêteté intellectuelle. En fait, il faut sortir du confort et faire l'effort de remettre en question ce qu'on sait et être dans une quête honnête de la vérité. C'est ça, je crois, un des enjeux en fait. Faire confiance à l'esprit critique pour dépasser la polarisation [Stéphane] Je crois qu'il faut faire confiance aux personnes. Souvent j'entends : « Ah! Les jeunes, ils se font prendre dans n'importe quelle théorie du complot. » Des théories du complot, il y en a toujours eu. Même, on le voit dans les évangiles, ils disent : « Ils vont voler le corps de Jésus et ils vont faire croire aux gens qu'il est ressuscité. » Déjà là, on est presque dans Dan Brown avec Da Vinci Code. Je regarde mon adolescent, par exemple. Il n'est pas plus idiot que nous. Il connaît les codes. Ce n'est pas parce qu'il n'utilise pas les mêmes outils de vérification que moi, que j'utilise depuis 50 ans, qu'il est plus naïf ou qu'il est plus stupide. Je pense qu'il y a une majorité de gens qui sont prêts à se poser des questions, qui sont prêts à fouiller, qui sont prêts à écouter. Il y aura toujours les gens qui ne veulent rien savoir, qui vont tomber dans les théories du complot. Je pense qu'il faut accorder de l'importance aux personnes qui sont censées et se sortir d'une espèce de logique de polarisation. Qu'est-ce qui va attirer les clics? Qu'est-ce qui va attirer les followers sur les médias sociaux? Qu'est-ce qui va créer le plus grand spectacle à la télévision? Il faut avoir foi en l'humanité, je crois. Conclusion [Joan] J'aime beaucoup cette notion de foi en l'humanité. On a eu un dialogue un peu intergénérationnel aujourd'hui avec Yana-Malena et c'était un plaisir.

What separates companies that recover from a crisis from those that collapse overnight?In this episode of Corporate Finance Explained, we explore the role of crisis management, corporate trust, and crisis communication in protecting shareholder value and long-term business success. Through real-world case studies, we examine why communication during a crisis is far more than public relations. It is a strategic financial asset that can determine whether a company survives or fails.Using examples including Silicon Valley Bank, Credit Suisse, Johnson & Johnson's Tylenol crisis, and Starbucks' 2008 turnaround, we break down how trust influences investor confidence, customer loyalty, liquidity, and corporate resilience.

Pregnancy and the postpartum period are critical windows of increased stroke risk, driven by physiologic changes such as hypercoagulability and blood pressure fluctuations. This episode highlights key warning signs, including headache and hypertension, along with practical guidance on evaluation, management, and risk reduction to improve outcomes for pregnant and postpartum patients. In this episode, Kait Nevel, MD, speaks with Michelle H. Leppert, MD, author of the article "Pregnancy and Stroke Risk" in the Continuum® June 2026 Cerebrovascular Disease issue. Dr. Nevel is a Continuum® Audio interviewer and a neurologist and neuro-oncologist at Indiana University School of Medicine in Indianapolis, Indiana. Dr. Leppert is an associate professor of neurology at Tufts Medical Center in Boston, Massachusetts.

But for some, medical complications such as stroke can lead to devastating disability and sometimes even death. Today, we're going to learn about pregnancy and postpartum stroke, including stroke risk evaluation and best practices in management and risk reduction to help our pregnant and peripartum patients reduce stroke risk and achieve best possible outcomes.  Dr Jones: This is Dr. Lyell Jones, Editor-in-Chief of Continuum. Thank you for listening to Continuum Audio.

Today, I'm interviewing Dr. Michelle Leppert about her article on pregnancy and stroke risk. This article appears in the June 2026 Continuum issue on cerebrovascular disease. Michelle, welcome to the podcast, and please introduce yourself to the audience.  Dr Leppert: My name is Michelle Leppert. I'm a stroke neurologist, and I currently work at the Tufts Medical Center in Boston, Massachusetts.  Dr Nevel: Thank you so much for being here, Michelle, and I'm looking forward to talking to you about your article. I always love starting with the question, what's the most important takeaway from your article for the practicing neurologist?  Dr Leppert: I think in this article, I'm trying to highlight that during pregnancy and especially postpartum, there's a heightened risk of stroke for women, and that's important for clinical neurologists to understand that this is a particularly vulnerable time for the population that we take care of. I think that one of the few of the things that could be informing this heightened stroke risk are the physiological changes that women undergo during pregnancy. So, that includes coagability, where there's an increased likelihood of clotting, and also the cardiovascular adaptations, including increased cardiac output and having an increased cardiac volume. And all of these mechanisms all contribute to the increased risk of strokes around pregnancy and postpartum.  Dr Nevel: Great. Thanks for that. What are some of the unique aspects of stroke types in etiology in pregnancy that we should be aware of?  Dr Leppert: When we think of strokes overall, generally the majority of our strokes are ischemic. So, for the overall population, about eighty-seven percent of strokes are ischemic, while the remainder are hemorrhagic. However, interestingly, during pregnancy, what we're seeing is about half of our strokes become hemorrhagic strokes, and now only a half of our strokes are ischemic, and this is in contrast to what we see in the overall population. One of the reasons is because pregnancy is associated with preeclampsia, and preeclampsia increases the risk of hemorrhagic stroke during pregnancy.  Dr Nevel: Can you tell us just more about headache in general in pregnancy and association of headache with secondary causes of headache and how that relates to stroke risk in this patient population? It seems like in this patient population that when somebody has a headache, we need to be very careful in our headache questions and evaluation.  Dr Leppert: Yeah. And I think the most concerning symptom that we're finding in this population is headaches, and the reason is because headaches is one of the clinical signs of having preeclampsia, which dramatically increases your risk of having a stroke, and especially a hemorrhagic stroke. So just to back up, we can talk about blood pressure for a little bit and some of the pathophysiologic changes during pregnancy. What most people may not know is that there's a dramatic vascular expansion that occurs during pregnancy. And somewhere during the second trimester, your blood pressure is actually the lowest. So, it can drop below pre-pregnancy levels and make your blood pressure appear low for the baseline. However, during the third trimester, as the baby is growing, there is increased vascular volume. The blood pressure starts to increase. We're seeing some of the highest prevalence of blood pressures, which is a sign for preeclampsia, and headaches develop during that third trimester, and particularly during the time around delivery and postpartum. And one of the most concerning signs, the most common sign of preeclampsia is having a headache. So, I think that with any patient that's presenting with a headache, especially during the third trimester or after delivery, that we really need to pay attention and take their blood pressure. That's one of the easiest clinical indicators that something could be going very wrong. Some of the other red flags clinically that we look for in headaches is that acute onset of a severe headache. That headache quality is different from what they usually have. Any woman with focal neurological symptoms associated with their headache, kind of excessive nausea and vomiting that's not characteristic for them. Not getting any relief with medications, and then lastly, checking that blood pressure is very important.  Dr Nevel: And what are the thoughts on blood pressure management in this patient population? I know that there is a little bit of difference in guidance in some of the obstetric societies on how we should manage blood pressure in this patient population. And then, is there anything beyond blood pressure management that we should be thinking about doing for this patient population to reduce their stroke risk?  Dr Leppert: I think that's a good question, and I hadn't really understood that this could be an area of controversy, cause my practice is mostly in stroke, and for most of adult population, the guidelines for blood pressure is very clear. We treat everybody over 130/80. If you're elderly, then your blood pressure limit might be a little higher. However, there's disagreement in the OBGYN guidelines from the American guidelines to the European guidelines. So, what the current American guidelines suggests is that if you have a history of chronic hypertension, then we would want your blood pressure treated during pregnancy below 140/90. However, if you don't have a history of chronic hypertension, then we allow the blood pressure to be higher and then it's an acute intervention if it's anything over 160. One of the issues with this strategy that is concerning is we had just mentioned that the pathophysiology of a pregnancy where you have the lowest blood pressure in that second trimester, and so your blood pressure may be abnormally good. [laughs] And it appears that it's better than your baseline. And so, by the OBGYN definition, any gestational blood hypertension is considered at 20 weeks and later. Sometimes these blood pressures are masked in some women who are pregnant. I think regardless of the controversy and what the practice should be, the focus is that most of the strokes are happening actually peripartum and postpartum, right? So, the woman's no longer pregnant. It is these time periods of the highest risk that we wanna make sure that the blood pressure is controlled. So, after the woman delivers the baby, we're no longer, you know, hampered by the whatever is chronic or gestational. We should be treating that blood pressure to 140/90. I think that not focusing on the controversy until the science catches up is probably what we should do. But like, really, the message here is that we should be checking women around the time of delivery and also postpartum, that we can't forget about their blood pressures postpartum, cause it actually doesn't peak until day five after they deliver the baby.  Dr Nevel: Does knowing that, that blood pressure peaks around day five, do you think that that should impact how we counsel patients in checking their blood pressure at home? Cause most women at day five are home. They're not still in the hospital.  Dr Leppert: Yeah, I think that's a really good point. One of the best interventions has been having a blood pressure at home for pregnant women. So even during their pregnancy and then postpartum, allow them to check their blood pressures, cause there's... Most of the cases, to be honest, that I've seen of preeclampsia and intracranial hemorrhage has happened postpartum. And I think what's unfortunate is that the woman is at home, they're distracted cause they have a newborn baby. They have a headache. They're just taking some Tylenol. And then if you have that blood pressure cuff readily accessible, that's a, a really easy way for them to check and notice that, hey, the blood pressure's too high, they have to go into the hospital.  Dr Nevel: Yeah, absolutely, and it's not just like a headache because you're sleep deprived and have a newborn. It's a headache that you need to pay attention to. Okay, maybe we could talk a little bit now about evaluation when we are suspicious of potential stroke. What do we need to know about imaging modalities and safety considerations of imaging in this patient population?  Dr Leppert: Yeah, that's a great question. I think when I was training, it was fairly controversial to give a pregnant woman MR contrast with gadolinium during their pregnancy. And as I was researching for this article, actually there's not definitive evidence that that is harmful for the fetus. However, in general, for the acute evaluation of patients during pregnancy, we're recommending using the CAT scan and then a CT angiogram. And then if the acute evaluation is not necessary, then an MRI. And if we need vessel imaging, you can employ an MRA time-of-flight study. That doesn't require the gadolinium contrast. However, one thing that I learned from this article that I thought was really interesting was the use of abdominal shielding. So, you're scanning someone's brain. I always thought, "Hey, doesn't it make sense to put a lead shield over the abdomen?" It turns out the lead shield actually interferes with the automatic calibration of the CT machine, so studies have found that actually increases the dose of radiation that the fetus is exposed to. So, it's much better when we're doing acute evaluations to not shield the abdomen, and really the only thing that can help reduce the radiation dose is the duration of the study. So, what we would recommend is if you want a rapid CT angiogram, rapid CT head, go ahead and obtain it. But if you don't need extra sequences, like a delayed phase of the CT angiogram, then to avoid that and reduce the exposure. Dr Nevel: I'm so glad that you talked about that because I was shocked when I read that in your article that we shouldn't be using abdominal shielding in pregnant women. I had no clue. I thought that that was, like, something that we absolutely should do. So, I found that really interesting. Thank you for that. So, any special considerations for acute stroke intervention or management in pregnancy in the postpartum phase, especially things like thrombolysis and thrombectomy?  Dr Leppert: Yeah. So, I think that as our evidence is getting better for thrombectomy, I would be more judicious about using IV thrombolysis, especially around the time of delivery, cause there is some evidence that it can be associated with postpartum hemorrhage. Patient selection, I think, is key here. So, women who have disability associated with their stroke, and then women who aren't candidates for thrombectomies are still candidates for IV thrombolysis. But understanding that this is a little bit of an unchartered territory for us, and only using IV thrombolytics when we think that there is a big benefit to be had.  Dr Nevel: Can you talk a little bit more about RCVS and PRESS in pregnancy and some of the overlap that we see in this patient population and its relationship to preeclampsia? It seems like there's a lot of interconnections there, and I thought that that was pretty interesting in your article.  Dr Leppert: Right now, the thinking is that RCVS and PRESS are on the same spectrum of pathology, and we think that it has something to do with the autoregulation of vascular resistance in the posterior circulation of the brain. We're not sure what triggers this, but there is something about pregnancy that classically we'll see this postpartum RCVS phenomenon. It likely has to do also with blood pressure that we're seeing. So really classically we think of this, like, thunderclap headache. You see vasospasms on imaging that is transient, that are kind of the classical signs of RCVS. But I think that we're still not completely sure what triggers it, but it's a very well-described clinical phenomenon.  Dr Nevel: Great. Thank you. Could you share a little bit about migraines in pregnancy and stroke risk? [laughs] I also thought that this also a segment of your article that caught my attention because migraines are so common. What's the association of migraine, pregnancy, and stroke risk?  Dr Leppert: Yeah. So that's a very complicated association. So, we know that migraines are associated independently with strokes, and especially people with migraines with aura. However, migraines are also highly associated with PFOs, right? And during pregnancy, what we see is that there is a hypercoagulability state, and so we see lots more DVTs, we see more PEs associated with women during pregnancy. So potentially, because migraineurs also are more likely to have PFOs, they could be presenting with more cardioembolic, kind of paradoxical emboli from these thrombus. But I'm not quite sure that we know why migraines in and of itself, especially with migraines with aura, lead to strokes. And especially during pregnancy, I'm not sure because we have very little understanding about pathophysiology of pregnancy while having migraines with aura also leads to more strokes, or that risk is really just associated with PFOs. So, I think that we need to think about that a lot more. The recommendation is a baby aspirin if you have some of these risk factors for preeclampsia, any vascular risk factors, and including migraines with aura during pregnancy. And we think that baby aspirin is relatively safe, especially starting around the 12 to 16-week period.  Dr Nevel: So just to clarify, in a woman who's pregnant, who's 12 weeks or beyond in their pregnancy and who has migraine with aura, is that a patient that we should consider aspirin for them to reduce their stroke risk?  Dr Leppert: I think you can. I am not sure that there is a specific recommendation. I think that, like, a conversation with your OBGYN is, you know, a good idea. But we do recommend that baby aspirin for women, um, above 35 years old because it's considered advanced maternal age. And then we recommend baby aspirin with women with a history of hypertension, multiple gestations, diabetes, renal disease, autoimmune disease. So, I definitely think that is something to consider.  Dr Nevel: Yeah. Interesting. Okay, great. Thank you for that. When someone has a stroke and they're pregnant again, what are some strategies for secondary stroke prevention? And you mentioned some of the primary risk reduction, but are there any others that you haven't mentioned yet other than aspirin and blood pressure control for primary prevention? Dr Leppert: Yeah, absolutely. So, I think that it's important to plan ahead. So, for women who are thinking about getting pregnant after they've had a stroke, one of the tenets of stroke neurology is trying to figure out why the first stroke happened. So, I feel like before getting pregnant, it's great to have a very thorough stroke workup so that you understand what the risk factors were and that those risk factors are controlled. One of the interventions, one of the only interventions that's, has evidence in young people with strokes is PFO closure. So, if you do have a stroke from a PFO, we recommend you get that closed prior to your pregnancy because then hopefully even given the hypercoagulability of pregnancy, there's some protection against another embolic stroke.  Dr Nevel: Another really interesting part of your article that I did not know before I read it was about the risk of cardiovascular disease long term in women who have had stroke during pregnancy. Could you talk a little bit more about that?  Dr Leppert: What we understand is that gestational diabetes and gestational hypertension sets you up for having diabetes and hypertension later on in life, and it's really developing the actual diabetes to the hypertension that increases your risk of strokes. So, what's really an important takeaway for providers is that after women develop gestational diabetes or they have gestational hypertension or they develop preeclampsia, it's very important for their primary or their neurologist to be very vigilant of these risk factors developing so that they can be modified before the women are at higher risk for strokes. And the reason why we think this happens is because pregnancy is like a stress test for your body. And so, the fact that you've developed the gestational diabetes or the gestational hypertension kind of already suggests that you're more likely and more vulnerable to developing these traditional risk factors later on.  Dr Nevel: That makes sense. Thank you for that. What do you think is a common misconception about stroke in pregnancy?  Dr Leppert: When I was earlier in my training, it kind of felt like having a stroke during pregnancy was being struck by lightning. It was really random. There was nothing you could do. It just happened to people. And I think as I learned more in my career, and especially researching for this article, I'm kind of shocked and disturbed by how much of the strokes in pregnancy we can actually prevent. Through management and monitoring of blood pressure for women. And so, I do think that it does our patients a disservice if we think that these are rogue events. But really, it might be a sign of the failure of our health system where we're not taking care of women around their delivery and postpartum and being more vigilant about their blood pressure and more vigilant about the clinical signs that they're developing.  Dr Nevel: Yeah, I really got that from your article, how important it is to monitor for blood pressure and other risk factors, and that that continues after the baby's born. Thank you so much for that, and thank you for talking with me today about your article about stroke and pregnancy. Again, today I've been interviewing Dr. Michelle Leppert about her article on pregnancy and stroke risk. This article appears in the June 2026 Continuum issue on cerebral vascular disease.

Hey Hey Poison Friends! We are bringing you part 2 of our look into Johnson & Johnson, and the drama is only escalating. We are discussing the expensive end to their use of talc in baby powders as well as the damage that it did to numerous women and likely others exposed to it. J&J apparently learned nothing from this, however. When people began dying of liver failure after taking too much Tylenol (acetaminophen) or because they had been moderate drinkers before taking it, they did their best to hide the facts from the public. When the FDA asked them to put a warning on Tylenol for its possible effects on the liver, they fought back for years. They made hundreds of millions of dollars on Tylenol, even though it was over the counter, and it was at one point the highest cause of liver failure in the US and in Britain. Then there was the infant's vs children's versions. In the midst of all of this, we need to look into their history of wooing doctors and politicians into their pockets as well as how their agenda for more money has led to bankruptcies and deaths across America for decades. They are not the only ones, and don't worry, we'll get to them too...Thank you to all of our listeners and supporters! We truly appreciate you all!

For a number of years now, a debate surrounding a potential link between acetaminophen and neurodevelopment has been waged, sparking intense public interest and scientific scrutiny. In Tylenol and Autism, William Parker, PhD, delivers a rigorous, evidence-focused investigation into this deeply contested issue. Dr. Parker organizes roughly 30 distinct lines of evidence—spanning pharmacology, human associative data, and animal neurodevelopmental toxicity—to weigh the total body of evidence against common objections. Beyond the biology, Tylenol and Autism examines the anatomy of the controversy itself, pulling back the curtain on how statistical misclassifications, peer-review failures, and institutional conflicts of interest can shape medical consensus. Dr. Parker is scheduled to join me to discuss the debate and his findings.The America 250 celebration is underway, and headlines abound; everything from how terrible it is to have UFC fights at the White House to planned terror attacks, even some still talking about musical performers who dropped out of performing as part of the celebration.

We will discuss the official narrative in this case, and all the illogical and perplexing actions taken by the authorities in response to the murders.

Deb 00:00:01Imagine your body has a repair manual, instructions written in your cells that tell tissues how to heal, blood vessels, how to grow, and inflammation when to stop. But what if those instructions got lost somewhere along the way? Well, today I’m talking about peptides, tiny protein fragments that act like biological text messages. Two of them, BPC 157 and TB 500.They’re showing remarkable promise for gut repair, joint recovery, and tissue regeneration. But here’s what nobody’s telling you. Women respond differently to these healing signals, especially during hormonal transitions. And today, we’re uncovering the science behind these regenerative peptides, who actually needs them, and why your doctor might not know about them. Can you guys put our ad right in here and then I’ll go to the standard intro?Welcome back to Let’s Talk Wellness Now, the show where we uncover the root causes of chronic illness, explore cutting edge regenerative medicine, and empower you with the tools to heal. I’m Dr. Deb, your medical detective. And today we’re diving into regenerative peptides BPC157 and TB 500. If you or someone you love is struggling with slow recovery from injury, chronic joint pain, gut inflammation that just won’t quit, or you just feel like your body doesn’t bounce back the way it used to, this episode is for you. Grab a cup of coffee or tea or whatever helps you unwind, settle in, and let’s start you on your journey to deeper healing. We’ll do another sponsor break here. Deb 00:01:52So let’s start with the question I hear constantly in my practice. Dr. Deb, I’m doing everything right. I’m eating clean, I’m exercising, I’m taking my supplements, but I’m still not healing. What am I missing? Well, that answer might surprise you. Sometimes it’s not about what you’re putting in your body. It’s about whether your cells are actually receiving the repair signals they need. That’s where peptides come in. Think of peptides as The body’s original communication system. These short chains of amino acids are like biological post-it notes carrying instructions from one cell to another. They tell your human system when to calm down, your blood vessels when to grow and your tissues when to repair. Now here’s where it gets interesting for women specifically. We know that estrogen plays a massive role in collagen production, vascular health, inflammatory response. When estrogen starts declining, whether that’s perimenopause, postpartum, or even from chronic stress, our natural repair mechanisms slow down dramatically. You might notice it as my joints are aching more, I’m a little more fluid filled, you know, they hurt when I bend them, my injuries take twice as long to heal.Gut issues that suddenly appear out of nowhere and no matter what you do, they don’t seem to repair. Skin has lost its elasticity or just this general sense that your body isn’t keeping up anymore. This is where BPC 157 and TB 500 entered the picture. So BPC 157, short for body protection compound 157, is a naturally occurring peptide sequence found in your gastric juices. And according to a 2024 systemic review published in emerging use of BPC 157 in orthopedic sports medicine, this peptide promotes something called angiogenesis. That’s the formation of new blood vessels and they deliver oxygen and nutrients to damaged tissues. Now TB 500 is a synthetic fragment of thymus and beta-4. Deb 00:04:17A protein your body makes naturally during wound healing and research published in therapeutic peptides in orthopedics in 2025 shows that it works like a cellular first responder rushing to injury sites and coordinating tissue repair through a process called actin regulation. But here’s what makes these peptides different from just taking another supplement. They don’t force your body to do anything.They simply remind yourselves how to heal the way they used to. And for women navigating hormonal changes, autoimmune flares, chronic inflammatory conditions, that distinction matters enormously. all right, let’s get into some of these mechanisms because understanding how something works helps you make informed decisions about whether or not it’s right for you. So,Let’s look at the science. Do these peptides actually work? And if so, how do they work? Let’s start with BPC 157. This works through multiple pathways simultaneously. First, it activates growth factor receptors that stimulate fibroblasts. Those are the cells responsible for making collagen and rebuilding connective tissue. And according to research published in Frontiers and Pharmacology in 2023, titled Regeneration or Risk, BPC 157 also modulates nitric oxide signaling, which enhances vascular repair and reduces oxidative stress at the cellular level. So this is really important because many of us are nitric oxide deficient, especially as we get older, especially since the pandemic, we’re seeing a lot of people being more deficient in nitric oxide and you’re taking nitric oxide, many of you, to help with this process. But if we’re having other issues that don’t allow that nitric oxide to get where it needs to go, that could render it completely useless. So in plain English, when we’re talking about how BPC 157 helps the blood vessels work better and protects your mitochondria, big word for your energy factories and your cells from that inflammatory damage. Deb 00:06:38Now there’s studies in musculoskeletal and gastroenterology models that show BPC157 decreases inflammatory cytokines like TNF-alpha and IL-6. And these are chemical messengers that keep inflammation turned on. So by dialing them down, BPC157 creates an environment where healing can actually happen. Now, where do we know about this?TNFL and IL-6, well, we know it from viruses, we know it from Lyme disease, we know it from mold toxicity. These cytokines are turned up, they’re creating a massive inflammatory response in the body, and you’re struggling to get these things down because of that or potentially other reasons. So here’s where it gets really interesting with women in perimenopause or menopause. When estrogen declines, collagen synthesis slows down. And that’s why we see increased joint pain, slower wound healing, and our changes in the skin’s elasticity during this transition. We see the little wrinkles, the fine lines, we see the subcutaneous fat going away a little bit more. This is partially why this is occurring. And so from research shown in the Journal of Orthopedic Research in 2023 by Leibowitz and colleagues, that they suggest that BPC157 affects on the endothelial layers. So the cells lining the blood vessels and these may mimic some of the estrogen’s protective vascular effects without actually affecting your hormone levels. This is really huge because we know that as women lose estrogen, they have a higher risk for vascular events, heart attack, stroke, things like that. And if people have already had a heart attack or a stroke, We typically recommend that they don’t use estrogen because that could potentiate the risk for another heart attack or a stroke. But that means that you don’t gain the benefits of estrogen either. So if we think about this, we could potentially use BPC 157 to give us some of the benefits that we lost from having estrogen and potentially not being able to use estrogen. And that would be huge for us. Deb 00:08:57And not to mention the reduction of inflammation and the joint pain and the wound healing and the energy and the gut feelings. I mean, there’s just so many benefits to BPC 157 that we could talk about them all day long. But we’ve got to move on. So let’s talk about TB 500. Now this peptide works very differently. Its primary job is promoting cell migration, essentially telling repair cells to go to this spot and what to do when they get there. So it sends a signal, puts a little post-it stamp there and says, Hey, when you get there, fix A, B, C, and D. And there was a study in 2024 in cell biology international that demonstrated that TB 500 increases epithelial closure and improves tendon elasticity in models of repetitive strain injury. So let’s think about that a little bit. What does that really mean?That means faster recovery from exercise induced muscle damage, better healing of overuse injuries like tennis elbow or plantar fasciitis, improved scar tissue remodeling after surgery or a C-section, enhanced recovery from chronic inflammatory conditions affecting soft tissues. And I’ve talked about this several times. I have used these compounds post-surgical personally.And I remember going back to see my surgeon at the two to three week mark for follow-up. And she was amazed at how well everything was healing. And when I asked her if she wanted to know what I was doing, her response was no, but keep doing whatever you’re doing because it’s working. And after three weeks of a major pelvic repair surgery that I had, four hours in surgery, lots of sutures, not comfortable. I was actually walking a mile and didn’t have pain and I was recovering really well and felt amazing. And that is just not typically heard of in surgical procedures like mine. It’s usually a minimum of a six to eight week recovery before you’re starting to do that again. And I give all of the credit to these two peptides. Deb 00:11:17In my clinical practice, I see this play out constantly. Women who train hard, whether that’s CrossFit, running, yoga, or just trying to keep up with active kids, often hit a wall where their recovery can’t keep up pace with their activity level. And TB 500 helps to bridge that gap by optimizing the body’s natural repair timeline. But here’s what I want to emphasize with you. These peptides aren’t magic bullets.They work best when we combine them with proper nutrition and anti-inflammatory diet, adequate sleep, stress management, and we address the underlying root cause like the gut dysfunction or those hormonal imbalances. And they work much better when the hormones are balanced versus when they’re not. They’re amplifiers of your body’s existing healing capacity, not replacements for foundational health practices.So let’s have some real talk here. Let’s talk about evidence and what you need to know about that. Let’s take a drink, sorry. Now let’s address the elephant in the room. Regulatory status and safety. Neither BPC 157 or TB 500 are FDA approved for human medical use. They fall into a category called research compounds. And that means they’re legal to possess and use but they’re not approved as pharmaceutical drugs. And hopefully they will be back on our list of things to use relatively soon with the changes that Bobby Kennedy has made to peptides recently. So why does this matter? Because quality becomes a concern. Quality control is absolutely critical. You need to know where these compounds are manufactured, their source, their testing. their clarity, everything about them. There was a 2025 review in therapeutic peptides in orthopedics that concluded both peptides demonstrate strong regenerative signaling with minimal systemic side effects in preclinical studies. But, and this is really important, most of the robust data we have comes from animal models and cell culture models, not large scale human clinical trials. Deb 00:13:41Now that doesn’t mean that they don’t work. It just means that we are still in the early stages of understanding optimal dosing, treatment duration, and long-term effects in humans. So why do we have all of this great peptide information and we don’t quite have the ability to use them yet, or it’s extremely restricted?That comes under the guise of the FDA. came through the past administration with Biden where he removed a bunch of these peptides from the market. Both BPC and TB 500 were on the list of safe peptides to use before Biden made his changes. And it looks like they may be coming back relatively quickly for us here. So what we do have is growing clinical feedback from practitioners like myself. Who use these peptides in practice under careful supervision and under pilot studies on musculoskeletal recovery published in our organizations that we work with. So all of our information is documented and it is done under an observational study. There are other studies published in orthopedic and biomedical research from 2025.that actually found VPC-157 reduced pain scores by 35 % and improved functional mobility within eight weeks. This is really phenomenal because many people over the age of 40 are reaching for the Tylenol bottle, the Advil bottle, the Aleve bottle, which does a number on your kidneys and your gut and your liver. And it is really problematic to be using these things on a regular basis.And if we can use a compound that’s safe, that preserves the kidneys, the liver and the gut, why don’t we do that is the question that I have. Now, we see a lot of the same information in our clinic that we see in these studies. And it is the following things that we see. Significant reduction in joint pain and stiffness. I have a person that was looking at doing a knee replacement and we did 10 weeks of these two compounds. Deb 00:16:00And her knee pain reduced so much that she decided she didn’t feel like she needed that knee replacement right away, which is good because she is only 60 years old. And the length of that knee replacement wouldn’t be as long as it would if she could wait five or 10 years. The doctor didn’t say she needed to do it right away. She wasn’t that critical, but it was the pain that was driving her to the replacement. And so if we could preserve that and give her a reduction in pain, all the better to do that. We get faster recovery from surgical procedures, improved gut symptoms, especially in cases of leaky gut or inflammatory bowel conditions, better skin quality and wound healing, enhanced overall sense of resilience and recovery capacity. But here’s what you absolutely must know before considering peptide therapy. First, source matters. Because these aren’t FDA regulated pharmaceuticals, quality varies widely and you need to work with a physician who sources from compounding pharmacies 503A or 503B that provide certificates of analysis, third party testing and proper sterility verification. Secondly, context matters. Peptides work best as part of a comprehensive functional medicine approach. So if you’re still eating inflammatory foods, drinking alcohol, not managing your stress or your sleep, you have unaddressed gut dysfunction, and these peptides alone won’t fix those problems. Thirdly, realistic expectations matter. These aren’t overnight miracle cures. Most patients see gradual improvements over four to 12 weeks. Some respond dramatically, others see modest benefits. Individual variation is real. And fourth, medical supervision matters. Dosing, injection technique,monitoring for side effects and knowing when peptides are or are not appropriate. All of this requires clinical expertise. Now let me bust a few myths here because I hear this constantly. Myth number one, peptides are just for bodybuilders and athletes. That is false. While athletes use them for performance recovery, the therapeutic applications for chronic pain, gut healing and age related tissue decline are profound. Deb 00:18:26For everyday people. Myth number two, peptides will mess with my hormones. False. BPC-157 and TB-500 don’t interact with your endocrine system the way hormones do. They work through growth factors and cell signaling pathways. They are very different. Myth number three, if they’re not FDA approved, they must be dangerous. Not accurate.Many effective therapies exist in regulatory gray zones. What matters is quality sourcing, proper medical oversight, and informed consent. So the bottom line here is that these peptides show real promise backed by mechanistic science and growing clinical expertise, but they require responsible use, quality products, and realistic expectations. Now let’s talk about practical integration.Who should consider peptides? Well, so who actually benefits from the peptides? Let’s start there. Let me walk you through the three main categories I see. Number one is gut restoration. If you’re dealing with chronic gut inflammation, whether that’s IBS, inflammatory bowel disease, leaky gut, persistent digestive issues that haven’t responded to dietary changes alone, BPC 157 can be transformative.I had a patient recently, I’ll call her Sarah. She’s been struggling with severe gut pain and food sensitivities for three years. She tried elimination diets, probiotics, gut healing supplements, everything. And within six weeks of adding BPC 157 to her protocol, alongside the targeted nutritional therapy, her pain dropped by 70 % and she could tolerate foods that she hadn’t tolerated in years. Why does this happen? because BPC 157 directly supports mucosal integrity, the protective lining of your intestinal tract, and it reduces inflammatory cytokines and promotes healing of damaged tissue. Number two, muscle and joint recovery. This is where I see TB 500 shine. Women who are active, whether you’re a runner, a yogi, a cross-bitter, or someone who just wants to keep moving without pain. Deb 00:20:48They often hit a point where recovery becomes a very limiting factor. And maybe you’re dealing with chronic tendonitis, a nagging shoulder injury, a bad back that just will not quit, or just general achiness. It all makes you feel older and keeps you from being active the way you want to. TB 500 combined with therapies like red light therapy, PEMF, or targeted physical therapy, can dramatically accelerate soft tissue healing. I’ve seen recovery timelines cut in half for patients dealing with overuse injuries. Number three, menopausal transition support. This is where the intersection of peptides in women’s health gets really exciting. During perimenopause and menopause, declining estrogen affects collagen production, vascular health, and joint integrity, along with inflammatory processes and responses.Many women notice they just don’t heal as quickly and their joints hurt much more. Besides noticing their skin changes and their injuries linger longer. Low dose peptide protocols, often combining BPC157 for vascular and gut support with TB500 for soft tissue repair, can complement bioidentical hormone therapy or stand alone for women who can’t or don’t want to use hormones.Now I’m not saying that peptides replace your hormone optimization, but they can be powerful adjuncts that support tissue resilience during a time when your body’s natural repair mechanisms are shifting. Now, who should not use peptides? If you have any active cancer or a history of certain cancers, peptides that promote cell growth and angiogenesis might not be appropriate. If you’re pregnant or breastfeeding, we don’t have safety data.If you have severe kidney or liver disease, clearance and metabolism could be affected. You want to work with a practitioner who really understands this and be under medical supervision for these kinds of conditions. This really matters. A qualified functional medicine practitioner can assess your individual situation, run appropriate labs and determine whether peptides fit into your overall healing strategy. Remember, peptides are tools. They’re not magic. Deb 00:23:11They work best when you’re also addressing nutrition, sleep, stress, movement, and underlying root causes. They amplify your body’s healing capacity. They don’t replace the fundamentals. This is really important to understand. So thank you for joining me today on Let’s Talk Wellness Now.

I've always wondered how specifically having good relationships can decrease our likelihood of cancer or having a heart attack, and improve our immune systems and brain health. Well, I asked a Stanford Neuroscientist and his answers are absolutely fascinating.  Dr. Ben Rein is an award-winning neuroscientist and lecturer at Stanford, and the author of the phenomenal new book, Why Brains Need Friends. We are talking about why hanging out with your friends floods your brain with a chemical cocktail that is basically a microdose of MDMA, why being married beats chemotherapy as the number one predictor of surviving cancer, why Botox and Tylenol and Advil are making it harder to make friends, yes, really, and why we should all probably get dogs and get our parents to get dogs if we want them to live a long time. You're going to come away with a ton of action steps to not only live longer and be healthier, but also just feel better every single day.

Dr. Deb Muth 00:00:09 Hi there, how are you? Bob Miller 00:00:10 Excellent! Pedaling as fast as humanly possible, but doing okay. Dr. Deb Muth 00:00:14 Good, good. Well, I’m looking forward to our conversation today. This should be amazing. Bob Miller 00:00:20 Yeah, it should be a lot of fun. Dr. Deb Muth 00:00:22 Yeah, anything that’s off-limits for you in, our conversation? Bob Miller 00:00:28 No. Dr. Deb Muth 00:00:29 Okay, anything you want me to make sure we cover for you? Bob Miller 00:00:33 Well, I mean, is it okay if we put a little plug-in for our software? Dr. Deb Muth 00:00:35 Absolutely. Bob Miller 00:00:36 Yeah. Dr. Deb Muth 00:00:37 Absolutely. Bob Miller 00:00:36 Yeah. Dr. Deb Muth 00:00:37 Absolutely. Bob Miller 00:00:38 Hey, can we… can we do a screen share? Yes, we can. Yeah, because I want to show you some maps, and… Dr. Deb Muth 00:00:43 Okay. Things like that, yeah, so… Perfect. So just let me know when you want to do screen share. Bob Miller 00:00:48 Okay. Dr. Deb Muth 00:00:49 And yeah, feel free to plug your software wherever you want to. Bob Miller 00:00:53 Okay, well, good. Let me pull up a, a slide for that, and give me one second, I just want to shut the door to my office to get the noise down. Dr. Deb Muth 00:01:01 No worries. Bob Miller 00:01:16 And, how should I refer to you? Dr. Debb? Dr. Muth, what do you like? Dr. Deb Muth 00:01:18 Dr. Deb is great, or Deb, either way, I’m pretty informal, so… Bob Miller 00:01:22 Yeah, and… Bob is fine for me. Okay. Yeah. Yeah, there you go. Why people feel like they need this, son. Special name, it’s like, seriously. Dr. Deb Muth 00:01:33 Right? I agree. Bob Miller 00:01:35 When I work with my clients, it’s like, Dr. Millison, just, just bop, just, just bop. Dr. Deb Muth 00:01:41 Yep, that’s how I am, too. Just call me Deb, it’s good. Dr. Deb Muth 00:01:44 They feel a little awkward with that, you know? They’re not used to that, but… Bob Miller 00:01:48 Alright. And you’re a naturopath, medical doctor. Dr. Deb Muth 00:01:52 A nastropathic doctor and a nurse practitioner. Oh, nice. Yeah, so I got the best of both worlds, right? Bob Miller 00:01:58 Yeah, damn. Okay. Alright, so here we go… There we go. Alright, so I got that ready, and then I will do a, I will do a screen share. I think you’re gonna really, appreciate what we’ve come up with. We’ve come up with the concept of, Cellular CPR. Dr. Deb Muth 00:02:23 Oh, nice! Bob Miller 00:02:24 And that is, construct the cell membrane, Protect the cell membrane. And restore it if it’s damaged. Dr. Deb Muth 00:02:32 Love that. Bob Miller 00:02:34 I love that. Yeah, so that’s what we’re focusing on, and then how, You know, we want to get to the point that, you know, most people think of genetics, they think of, like, 23andMe or Ancestry. Dr. Deb Muth 00:02:44 Yeah. Bob Miller 00:02:45 And then you have the professional geneticists who are looking at, you know, odd things that could create a disease. We’re looking at functional genomics. Dr. Deb Muth 00:02:54 Which is so much better. Bob Miller 00:02:56 Yeah. Are you familiar with what we do here, or… Dr. Deb Muth 00:02:58 A little bit, a little bit. So, it’ll be new to me, too, so I’m excited. Bob Miller 00:03:03 And how much time do we have? Dr. Deb Muth 00:03:04 We have an hour, give or take a little bit on either side. Do you have a hard stop anywhere? Bob Miller 00:03:10 No, no, I put a, I moved my clients around, and I don’t have anybody till, 3.30, so we’re good. Okay. Dr. Deb Muth 00:03:16 Perfect. Alright. Bob Miller 00:03:18 It’s like we’re getting started early as well, so… Dr. Deb Muth 00:03:19 Yeah, we’re getting started a little bit early, so that’s good. Bob Miller 00:03:22 Yeah, I just got my office cleaned up, so… Dr. Deb Muth 00:03:23 Okay, good. All right, are you all set to get started? Bob Miller 00:03:28 I’m good to go, my friend. Dr. Deb Muth 00:03:29 I’m gonna just record a little intro and a little bit of a, hook for people, and then we’ll get started. I’ll ask you to kind of tell us a little bit about yourself, and then we’ll just take this conversation wherever it’s supposed to go. Bob Miller 00:03:39 Okay, you got it. Dr. Deb Muth 00:03:40 Alright, sounds good. So what if the reason you’re not healing isn’t your diet, your supplements, or your labs, but it’s actually your genes? Dr. Bob Miller is uncovering how genetic variants, when combined with modern toxins, explain why some of us stay sick no matter what we try. Today, we’re talking genetic pathways, detox blocks, and the new science every wellness warrior needs to know. Welcome back to Let’s Talk Wellness Now, the show where we uncover the root causes of chronic illness, exploring cutting-edge regenerative medicine, and empower you to heal from the inside out. I’m Dr. Deb, your medical detective, and today, our guest, Dr. Bob Miller, is a true pioneer in functional genomics. He’s a board-certified traditional naturopath and the founder of Neutrogenetic Research Institute. And he’s the leading groundbreaking research on how genetic variants influence chronic illness, inflammation, and detoxification. His work has been recognized on international stages, uncovering links between genetic expression and conditions like Lyme disease, mast cell activation, or MCAS, and mitochondrial dysfunction. I’m so excited to talk to Dr. Bob today. He is gonna reveal some things that even I don’t know about, so I’m excited to learn alongside of you guys. So… Dr. Bob, let’s get started. Tell us a little bit about yourself, and kind of how you got on this journey. Bob Miller 00:05:04 Well, that’s, that’s interesting. I was sort of like a mid-career coming to the natural health field, because in my early 30s, I found myself with a severe case of ulcerative colitis. Bob Miller 00:05:15 And I was in the hospital for 21 days. probably within hours of death, pleading to death. And they told me I’ve got one option, and that is cut out the colon and wear a bag. Didn’t sound like a lot of fun. Dr. Deb Muth 00:05:27 Not an option I would want. Bob Miller 00:05:29 So, you know, the medical folks wasn’t real happy with me, but I said, yeah, I’d like to explore some alternative things.Never thinking that I’d get into this field, and then I just, you know, worked with some herbalists and things that I found absolutely fascinating. So, that’s how I got into this around 30 years ago. And, haven’t looked back since, and just having a… having a blast as we now move into how our genetics impacts things. So, that’s what we’re gonna… that’s what we’re gonna talk about today. Dr. Deb Muth 00:05:58 I’m excited to talk about this genetic thing. When you started over 30 years ago, what kind of patience and problems first inspired you to dig deeper into that root cause healing and kind of get into the genetic piece of it? Bob Miller 00:06:10 Sure. Well, you know, as a… now, I’m in a part of the country called Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, where there’s a lot of Amish and Mennonite, and they gravitate towards these things.So, this is their first thing to do, and that doesn’t work, then they’ll go other routes. So, you know, back then, we just saw typical, you know, a little tired, constipation. You know, a little bit of fatigue, arthritis, those kind of things. But things have changed dramatically over the years, as people are now getting more chronically sick. You know, it’s worse than it’s ever been. And what we’re finding is the, the culprits Primarily is mold exposure and Lyme disease. When people get those two together, they’re just… it’s an inflammatory cascade that nobody can seem to unravel. So that’s where we spend a lot of our time. And we’re also spending a lot of time looking at mental health, like ADD, ADHD. And, we give… this year I’ll be speaking at three autism conferences. And we can dig into that a little bit as to why we think we’re seeing such a dramatic increase. And aside from autism, that used to be 1 out of 1,000, now it’s 1 out of 33, or 23. You know, we’re also seeing dramatic increases in ADD, ADHD. People are stressed out. And today, I think we’ll have the time to actually go through and show how environmental factors combine with genetics to cause that to happen. So we’ll… we should have a fun visit here today. And today, I think we’ll have the time to actually go through and show how environmental factors combine with genetics to cause that to happen. So we’ll… we should have a fun visit here today. Dr. Deb Muth 00:07:37 This should be a fun visit. We can cover lots of topics. I am so excited. So, you founded Nutri Genetic Research Institute in 2015. What did you hope to accomplish, and what kind of surprised you in your findings so far about that? Bob Miller 00:07:51 Well, you know, let’s back up at what, you know, genetics is used for. Everybody’s familiar with 23andMe and Ancestry that, you know, tells you where your ancestors came from. Then you have your professional geneticists. I mean, these are people with a degree in genetics. And they’ll look for, you know, very odd sort of things that are prone to relate to a disease. So there are disease-related genetics. Well, in functional, we don’t look at either of those. We look at For example, how you’re breaking down your fats and utilizing them. How you’re recycling your glutathione. How you might be handling your iron. And none of those are disease-causing on their own.And none of those are disease-causing on their own. But when they pile up on you, and then combine that with environmental factors, that’s when things start to go south on us. So, that’s what we’re doing, we’re looking at patterns. And our first foray into this was, we did studies on Lyme disease. And our first foray into this was, we did studies on Lyme disease. So, we looked at, like, I think 50 people with Lyme disease. We looked at their genome. So, we looked at, like, I think 50 people with Lyme disease. We looked at their genome. And we found patterns that were more evident in those with Lyme. Now, this doesn’t… these genetics don’t mean you get Lyme, it just means if you get Lyme, you react worse to it. And we found patterns that were more evident in those with Lyme. Now, this doesn’t… these genetics don’t mean you get Lyme, it just means if you get Lyme, you react worse to it. So, as you know, some people get Lyme, they go on a round of antibiotics, and they’re done. So, as you know, some people get Lyme, they go on a round of antibiotics, and they’re done. Others have a little more struggle, and then others are struggling terribly for years. So there’s an old adage of genetics loads the gun, environment pulls the trigger. Dr. Deb Muth 00:09:14 Yeah, that is so true, and I think when we’re talking about Lyme and mold and things like that, we forget sometimes that our genetics can predispose us to be more sensitive to those things, and if we have genetic pathways where we don’t clear things properly, it’s harder for us to get them out of the body. And then you add on that whole rain barrel effect that we’ve always used as a functional medicine term, right? If the barrel’s half full, you’re okay. If it’s full, and now it’s spilling over, it’s a bigger problem. Have you guys found, too, that some of these environmental things actually are changing the genetics of people, or how they’re processing their own genetics? Bob Miller 00:09:53 Well, let’s go back to, Genetics 101. But we’ll go back a little bit further. So, what an interesting mechanism, what a miracle the body is. Bob Miller 00:10:03 Fats, carbohydrates, proteins, drink water, breathe air, expose the sunlight, and somehow everything gets made. I mean, when you just step back and think about that, it’s like, It’s pretty darn amazing. Dr. Deb Muth 00:10:15 I always tell women, you know, the fact that we get pregnant and we have healthy pregnancies and births is a miracle, because if we had to try to control that, that wouldn’t work so well. Bob Miller 00:10:25 Right. Well, that’s another miracle. These microscopic sperm and egg, human being, 9 months later, it’s like. But even inside of us. We are making our hair, our skin, our nails, our blood vessels, our ATP, our energy, it’s all being created. Well, that gets created by enzymes. So, enzymes take one substance, combine it with something else, and make something new. Then another enzyme comes along and does the same thing. Your DNA is the instructions on how to make the enzymes. So, when we are conceived. If it’s a, if it’s a female, of course, it’s the XX, the two chromosomes. You know, we’ve… everybody’s seen those… the genetics that… Listed pair. So, if it’s a female, the father donated the X enzyme. And the mother has no choice but to give the eggs, so that’s female. If the father donates the Y, you have a male that’s in chromosome number 1. Then 2 through 23 is the rest of the instructions on how to make enzymes. So, what can happen? We can get what are called SNPs, single nucleotide polymorphisms. And SNPs just mean that the instructions to make the enzyme’s not quite as good. So, if one parent gives a SNP on the making of an enzyme, The enzyme’s fine. It works. But, general rule of thumb, It may only work at 70-80% of efficiency. Now, a good analogy is think of an 8-cylinder and a 6-cylinder car. If parents give you good information, that’s like having an 8-cylinder car. If one parent gives you that snip, it’s like having a 6-cylinder car. Now, is a 6-cylinder car a fine car? Sure. It’ll get you from point A to point B, but it’s just going to have the power of an 8-cylinder. Then if both parents give you a SNP on the same enzyme, it may be 30-40%, and that’s like having a 4-cylinder car. Sits in the driveway, looks the same, puts gas in it, everything. But if you’ve got a 4-cylinder car. Probably not a good idea to go cross-country pulling a trailer behind you up and down mountains. Dr. Deb Muth 00:12:29 This is true. Bob Miller 00:12:32 So… We can get an 8-cylinder, 6-cylinder, or 4-cylinder enzyme. Now, if it’s not under a lot of stress, if that 4-cylinder car is just taking you to the bank and the grocery store. It’s just as good as an 8-cylinder car. But if you gotta pull that trailer, and there’s a lot of stress on it, being mountains, it’s gonna struggle. Now, there’s one other little caveat to this, and that is some genetic mutations are gain-of-function. They actually work faster. Now, we have enzymes that do all kinds of things. We have enzymes that make and recycle our antioxidants, but we also have enzymes that make inflammation. No, that’s a good thing, because if we get a virus or bacteria, if you didn’t make inflammation to kill it, well, we’d all die of infection. So, you know, we tend to think of free radicals as bad, antioxidants as good. They both play an important role. But interestingly, some of the major enzymes that make inflammation, they can be overactive. They can be turbocharged. And when they’re stimulated by environmental toxins, they overreact. Bob Miller 00:13:40 And therein lies the problem. When they overreact, we have a problem. Bob Miller 00:13:46 So, if we have genes that overreact when stimulated. And then the enzymes that take care of inflammation are underactive. Then you’re gonna be more inflamed. You know, the majority of people that, you know, come for functional medicine Or naturopathic help, or… Inflammation that they can’t seem to get under control. Dr. Deb Muth 00:14:06 Right. Bob Miller 00:14:07 And we will be, you know, during this hour, we’re going to look at some of the pathways that make that happen. So, what we can do then, we can’t change our genetics. When you’re conceived, that’s the hand you’re dealt. When your life would be over, if someone would take some tissue and measure, it’d be exactly the same as conception. Does it change. Bob Miller 00:14:28 The enzyme’s ability to do its job may be compromised. Because remember I said there’s a, the enzyme takes a cofactor. So an enzyme takes substance A, cofactor, make substance B. Well, if that cofactor’s not there, the enzyme’s not going to work either. So, you could have an 8-cylinder car, and if there’s no gas in it, it’s not going anywhere. So… It’s the strength of the enzyme, it’s the cofactor to do the A to B conversion. And that’s what we’re going to get into. So, many people say, well, where did these SNPs come from? Nobody knows for sure. Sometimes they’re what’s just called de novo, when the sperm and egg go together, the instructions get mixed up a little bit. We do believe a lot of it came from a long time ago, when we were almost wiped out by sexually transmitted diseases. And those STDs were altering the genes when the conception, in other words, when the sperm went into the egg, the STDs were interfering. And causing the problem, so… I often joke, if you want to blame somebody. Blame your great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grandparents for, being a bit promiscuous, so… Dr. Deb Muth 00:15:31 Yeah, for being… having a little too much fun, right? Bob Miller 00:15:35 So, we don’t know for sure, but, you know, there are some that, But most of the SNPs that we get inherit from our parents. So, if you look at a child. And you look at the SNPs. 99.9% of the time, it came from one of the parents. Dr. Deb Muth 00:15:50 In identical twins, do they have the exact same identical makeup? Bob Miller 00:15:54 Yep, Dr. Deb Muth 00:15:56 But not in fraternal twins, correct? Bob Miller 00:15:59 No, no, those could be different, Jeff. Dr. Deb Muth 00:16:00 It could be different because they have different sacs, they’re not sharing that same genetic makeup. Bob Miller 00:16:04 Yeah, so keep in mind, both your mother and your father have, you know, the two And so you get one from one parent, one from another. Dr. Deb Muth 00:16:13 So… Bob Miller 00:16:14 Interesting situation. I had, 3, 3 boys. And, we were looking at an enzyme related to breaking down oxalates. Now, the mother and father each had one SNP, and that’s called heterozygous. Three boys, and they all come together, they’re Amish boys, they’re a lot of fun. And I looked at their genomes, and the one boy didn’t have any SNPs at all. And one had won. And the other one had two. Dr. Deb Muth 00:16:41 Interesting. Bob Miller 00:16:42 So, we don’t quite know how these things get handed off, but with the parents each having one, you could have a child with none, one, or two. So, the one, his ability to break down oxalates, which is fine. The other one was slightly impaired, and the other one was dramatically impaired. So, you can have 3 children, and it all depends what the parents have. Now, if a parent has a homozygous, or 2 copies. And the other parent has nothing. Every child will have one. Okay. If both parents are homozygous, that they both have two, Every child will have two. Dr. Deb Muth 00:17:19 too. Bob Miller 00:17:20 Yes, so that’s the way it works, but, you know, but it’s somewhat rare that both parents are homozygous on an enzyme, but it can happen. Dr. Deb Muth 00:17:27 Do we think that infections today, like Lyme disease or mold exposure, things like that, if the parent, the woman, primarily, I’m thinking, is pregnant, and she actively has these infections. Can those infections affect the genetics, kind of like a past sexual transmission did where we thought back in the day? Bob Miller 00:17:47 Yeah, I… I mean, I’m not that much of a geneticist to answer that for sure, but my thought would be no, that at conception, the pattern’s made. Dr. Deb Muth 00:17:55 Okay. And then that’s… that’s the hand you’re dealt. Bob Miller 00:17:58 Yeah. So, I tell people we have good news and bad news. The good news is we can compensate for the weakness. The bad news is we can compensate for the weakness. Dr. Deb Muth 00:18:09 That is so very true. Bob Miller 00:18:11 Yeah, we can’t, because I often get asked, so we’ll do some things now, and we’ll check my genes again, and they’ll be better. It’s like, nope. Dr. Deb Muth 00:18:18 Oh, – – Bob Miller 00:18:19 You gotta play the hands you’re dealt, so… Dr. Deb Muth 00:18:21 That’s right. Bob Miller 00:18:22 You can test your genetics… if you’re looking at the same enzyme, you can test it every year. It’s not gonna change. It’s like the blueprint. Dr. Deb Muth 00:18:30 It’s good and bad, right? It’s the one test you only have to do once in your lifetime. Bob Miller 00:18:34 No, unless, you know, like, our. Dr. Deb Muth 00:18:36 All the time. Bob Miller 00:18:37 Yeah, now our test looks at, called the Functional Genomic Analysis Test of your genomic Resource. We look at 220,000 steps. Dr. Deb Muth 00:18:46 Wow, that’s a lot. Bob Miller 00:18:47 That’s not all of them. Dr. Deb Muth 00:18:49 Right. Bob Miller 00:18:50 So, maybe in the next year, we’re gonna come out with our third version of the chip. And then, if someone wants to get those new things that weren’t on it, they’d have to repeat. But whatever we measured is gonna stay the same. Dr. Deb Muth 00:19:03 That’s a lot of SNPs to look at. Bob Miller 00:19:05 Keeps us busy. Dr. Deb Muth 00:19:06 But there’s still, but there’s still SNPs that we. Bob Miller 00:19:09 That we’d like to have that we don’t have, so… Bob Miller 00:19:11 We started out with version 1 on our genetic test, then we worked with version 2, and we’re already compiling a list of what version 3 would look like. So if somebody has our version 2, And we’re saying, you know what, it’d be nice if we could see these, well, then you’d repeat, but it won’t change what you already know, so… Dr. Deb Muth 00:19:29 Got it, got it. So, when you started out, and you started looking at the research of Lyme disease and chronic infections, which detox pathways are most important for people who struggle with those conditions? Bob Miller 00:19:43 Okay. You know what might make sense as we do a screen share, and I’ll actually show you the pathway. Does that make sense? Bob Miller 00:19:48 Alright, so… let’s see if I… let me just press the share… Dr. Deb Muth 00:19:52 Yep, you should just be able to press share. Bob Miller 00:19:54 And… number 2. Okay. Are we seeing the screen there? Bob Miller 00:20:01 Okay. Dr. Deb Muth 00:20:02 So, this is a map that we made. Bob Miller 00:20:05 And by the way, this is not… All-inclusive of all the things we look at, but we believe this is a core issue. So, where we’re going to start here, there’s something called the microglia. And the microglia are glial cells. They’re in the brain and the central nervous system. And they’re very interesting little creatures, because most of the time, and this is just a drawing of what they sort of look like. Most of the time, they’re in what’s called the M2 anti-inflammatory mood. What that means, these little guys pick up dirt, debris, Recycle them. Turns on an enzyme called interleukin-10 that’s anti-inflammatory. And just kind of does general housekeeping. And just kind of does general housekeeping. However, when a trigger comes along. However, when a trigger comes along. They… it’s the same glial cell, but it moves over to a very pro-inflammatory enzyme. A pro-inflammatory glial cell. And it triggers these 3 enzymes, Actually, these four. That are pro-inflammatory. Tumor necrosis vector alpha, Interleukin-6. NF Kappa B, Inos. Now, these create inflammation. So you might think, well, why is that good? Well, if you have some foreign invader, virus, bacteria coming in, parasite. If you didn’t have these guys coming to the rescue, you would just die of infection. So, these guys are your friend unless they’re your worst enemy. Because TNFA, and we’ll show you when we actually do a demo account, TNFA can be overactive. So, in other words, it over-responds. Interleukin-6 can be overactive. And if Kappa-B can be overactive. The INOS, and I’ll explain each of these as we go through a demo, can be overactive. Now, what that means is, you’re very good at killing virus and bacteria. But this is where autoimmune disease comes in, and just inflammatory conditions. Now, this is just speculation, but we think what happened is, as you know. Thousands of years ago, we didn’t have refrigeration, we didn’t have sewer, we didn’t have pure water, and we didn’t have antibiotics. So, if you made it to 40, you were an old-timer, because everybody was dying of infection. So, what we believe happened is, by what’s called natural selection, Having these overactive. A thousand years ago was to your advantage. Dr. Deb Muth 00:22:31 Hmm. Bob Miller 00:22:32 But now… We have pure water, we have refrigeration, we have sewers, we have antibiotics. But now we have environmental factors that are stimulating them. Now it’s to our disadvantage. And we’ll talk about that a little bit as it relates to the hemochromatosis genes and maybe the G6PD. Dr. Deb Muth 00:22:48 Yep. Bob Miller 00:22:49 Now, why are we becoming so inflamed? Let’s look at the triggers. Now, one of my, favorite expressions is. I was born all the way back in 1954. Dr. Deb Muth 00:23:01 And it was a different world back then. Bob Miller 00:23:05 These are some of the triggers. And we’ll get into these, but right now, high fructose corn syrup, And the high-fat diet. High fructose corn syrup only came about in 1968. So now we’re being exposed to high fructose corn syrup. Then… we didn’t have these, these viruses like COVID. Dr. Deb Muth 00:23:26 Yeah. Bob Miller 00:23:27 Now, there’s now pretty strong evidence that COVID Was actually, you know, made as a gain of function. It’s debated, and I’m not taking an opinion on it, but there’s some people who believe Lyme disease was also a part of experimentation. Dr. Deb Muth 00:23:40 Go. Bob Miller 00:23:41 Then we have molds, and it appears as though mold is getting stronger. you know, 20 years ago, when I was seeing folks, mold wasn’t on the radar. I would say 7 out of the 10 folks we speak to today have mold problems. Yeah, 20 years ago, we talked more about mold allergy being an issue versus mold toxicity being an issue. Right. So… I know some folks are, you know, speculating what’s happening, but one of the theories out there is that EMF is strengthening mold. I don’t know if you ever heard that theory, and I don’t… Dr. Deb Muth 00:24:13 I have. Bob Miller 00:24:14 I’m not claiming it’s true, but it’s an interesting theory. Then even, you know, your black mold from water-damaged buildings. Then our air pollution is getting worse. We’re getting more toxic metals. Dr. Deb Muth 00:24:26 You know, if we have a… Bob Miller 00:24:27 You know, we’re gonna look back someday and say, what were we thinking, smearing aluminum into our armpits? The, what were we doing putting mercury in our teeth? Then, you know, glyphosate. When I was a kid, there was no glyphosate. So, all of these herbicides and pesticides. Polychlorinated biphenols, And then EMF. So, we love our cell phones, you know, and I think unless you, or in the middle of the desert, or down in a cave, you’re being exposed to EMF somewhere. So, you know, we have our cell phones with us, we have, We have Wi-Fi, the towers are everywhere. And we don’t know long-term, but we may find that this can… this creates some inflammation. And I don’t know if you get any folks, but do you have any folks that have… are they EMF sensitive? Dr. Deb Muth 00:25:16 Oh yeah, we have a whole bunch of them. Bob Miller 00:25:18 Yeah, and then if you have any TBIs, So, plenty of things here. that will stimulate into the microglia, M1. Now, you could say, well. We’re all pretty much exposed to the same thing. Why do some people get hit harder than others? So here’s where we’re gonna start. There’s an enzyme called Nrf2 and RF2. And Nrf2 is the enzyme that senses when there’s inflammation. And turns on hundreds of anti-inflammatory enzymes. We’ll show when we do the demo, you can have genetic weakness on NERF2. And NERF2 inhibits and slows down microglia M1. supports M2. Now, if it’s not complicated enough, there’s an enzyme called KEEP1. And KEEP1 inhibits NRF2. And you can actually have gain of function on keep 1, that makes Keap 1 stronger. So… A lot of the people who land on my doorstep So… A lot of the people who land on my doorstep Both parents gave a mutation on KEEP1, making it overactive. Both parents gave a mutation on KEEP1, making it overactive. Dr. Deb Muth 00:26:31 Hmm. Dr. Deb Muth 00:26:31 Hmm. Bob Miller 00:26:32 Suppressing Nrf2, nerve 2 might be weak. So, nobody’s putting the brakes on, M1. And by the same token, Nerve 2 supports M2. Then there’s a process called mTOR and autophagy. mTOR stands for mammalian tard of rapamycin, the growth of new cells. And then autophagy, taking our dead cells and recycling them. We need a balance between the two of them. If we didn’t have mTOR, the sperm and the egg would never become the baby, the baby would never become the adult, we wouldn’t make new cells. But our cells are constantly, you know, the old cells dying off. Autophagy is where we take that debris from the cell and recycle it, just like a farmer Plows the crop under at the end of the year. The dead plant then becomes the fuel for the spring, your dead cell becomes the fuel for the spring, and that’s autophagy. So we’re gonna look back someday and say, what were we thinking? We give our animals growth hormones so they get fatter faster. Oh my. So, we consume those animals, and inventory runs faster. Now, for anybody who’s, You know, maybe above 40, 45 years old. Think back when you were 12, and what did girls look like? They were primarily flat-chested little girls. Now they look like 16-year-olds. Because environmentally, we’re jacking up mTOR. So, mTOR stimulates microglia M1, suppresses microglia M2. Probably 80% of the folks we visit with. This is the part of the problem. NRF2 is weak. mTOR is strong. Environmental factors come along. And this guy gets carried away. He doesn’t do that burst and move back. Stays here. We’re calling that How environmental factors create a locked-in, pro-inflammatory. and neurotoxic phenotype. In other words, once it starts, it just keeps… Feeding upon itself. Alright, so what happens now when microglia is overactive. it triggers these 3 enzymes, TNFA, N of kappa B, And interleukin-6. Each one of these can have genetics that make them run stronger. Then it stimulates an enzyme called NLRP3, Which makes what are called inflammasomes. Now, guess what inflammasomes can be? Your best friend or your worst enemy? Because they will, if you’ve got, again, a virus or bacteria, or possibly even some bad cells in the body. They will zap them. Well, that’s good. Unless it’s overactive. Unless it’s overactive. And then what it does, through interleukin-1 beta, makes excess glutamate. And then what it does, through interleukin-1 beta, makes excess glutamate. Anxiety, gut inflammation, OCD, ADD, autism. And, you know, glutamate, we’ll talk about that a little bit, but glutamate makes you intelligent, highly motivated go-getter. but can also be excitatory. And then, look what it does. Let’s see, do I have the drawing tool here? Yes, I do. Okay. So, it comes down through here, Makes the glutamate. Comes back up through here. through the ADORA 2A enzyme, Then we’ve got a feedback loop that feeds upon itself. Then, through interleukin-18, we make histamine. and mast cells. And then through histamine receptor site number 1, we come back and spin it. And now you’ve just got this spinning feedback loop. So, the glutamate will make you anxious, the histamine will give you allergies and make you anxious. And you’re allergic to everything, and you’re feeling horrible. Now, it doesn’t end there, Dr. Dad. It then goes on to make something called gast dermins that creates pyroptosis, where it actually starts punching a hole in the cell membrane. And you’re only going to be as healthy as your cells are. Just a little background. You know, we’re made up of trillions of cells, and each one of them has what’s called a lipid bilayer, made from lipids, which comes from fats. And you’re only going to be as healthy as those membranes are. So that’s why we coined an interesting phrase. Cellular CPR. Construct the cell. Protect the cell. And restore the cell membrane. And we believe that’s going to be revolutionary in the functional medicine world. So… It’s not hard to figure out that if you start punching holes in the cell membrane, that’s not a good thing, okay? Bob Miller 00:31:22 Now… There’s an interesting molecule called NAD. Thicotide adenoside dinucleotide. And anybody who’s in the, you know, listening to the health podcasts and things, they’re… They’re, they’re learning about NAD. And I’m going to show you a chart later, all the good things that NAD does, but For the most part, it helps what’s called sirtuins. And sirtuins are quite interesting. If anybody’s looking at longevity. The sirtuins is where they’re looking at.Because sirtuins turn on good things. Turn off bad things. And I’ll show some charts on that later. So for right here, this sirtuin uses NAD, to slow down NF-kappa-B. CERT 2 uses NAD to slow down an ORP3. So, if we’ve got genetic weakness on these, or we don’t have enough NAD, We don’t hold this pathway back. Make sense? Dr. Deb Muth 00:32:24 Yeah, makes perfect sense. Bob Miller 00:32:25 Now, I’ll show this a little bit later. So, people are like, oh, well, I’m gonna start taking some NAD. Dr. Deb Muth 00:32:31 Right. Bob Miller 00:32:32 And there’s functional doctors who give NAD intravenous. It was just this morning, I was talking to a woman who said, Oh my gosh. I went and got intravenous NAD, and it took me a month to recover from that. Dr. Deb Muth 00:32:45 Hmm. Bob Miller 00:32:46 what happens is, and I’ll show this in a little more detail, there’s an enzyme called CD38, that’s stimulated by NF-kappa-B. And it takes NAD, To make intracellular calcium. that stimulates NLRP3 and actually makes things worse. So, if we have this guy upregulated, and I’ll show a chart what does that. taking NAD will make you worse. Again, when I go into the software, I’ll show you that whole pathway, so… I would encourage people, you know, just don’t go out and start taking massive amounts of NAD, you know, stick your toe in the water, see how you do. Because everything you’ve heard about, how good it is, is true, unless this guy says, oh, thank you very much, let me make more inflammation. Now, this might be part of our innate immune system, that if we have some pathogen that’s gonna kill us. By golly, we want that to happen. But if this is happening by environmental factors, Then it’s detrimental. So the immune system that protected us a thousand years ago now might be turning on us because of the environmental factors that we showed earlier. All right. Then there’s an enzyme called PARP that’s NAD-dependent, and that actually repairs strain breaks in your DNA. Now, the next thing that happens… is there’s an enzyme called NADPH oxidase that gets stimulated. and something called INOS. Now, I’m sure most people know about nitric oxide. It’s a gas that dilates your blood vessels. That’s why sometimes they’ll even give people drugs, nitroglycerin, to boost their nitric oxide. That’s why people are doing beetroots and other things to boost their nitric oxide. But there’s an OS3 enzyme that makes the nitric oxide that’s good for blood flow. But there’s an INOS That makes nitric oxide to kill pathogens. probably might be the third or fourth time I’ve said this. That’s a good thing, unless it isn’t. So, if it’s killing some pathogen, great. It was just misfiring. it combines… With superoxide that’s made by this enzyme, and makes something called peroxynitrite, which is one nasty free radical that chews you up and spits you out. So, the NOx enzyme, NADPH oxidase, uses NADPH, To make this free radical called superoxide. If we have time, we’ll get into it. NADPH is what your body needs to recycle your antioxidants.So, I coined the phrase, the NADPH steel. Where the NOX enzyme takes this very important NADPH, And rather than being useful, makes superoxide. Now, again, is that fine if you’ve got some bacteria to kill? Of course. But if it’s just chronically running, it’s just making all this chronic inflammation. Then it makes something called hydrogen peroxide. And we need to clear hydrogen peroxide by 3 enzymes, catalase, thyroid reduction. And glutathione peroxidase. If we have genetic issues on here, or we don’t have the cofactors. There’s something called the Fenton reaction, discovered in 1895 by Dr. Fenton. Where hydrogen peroxide combines with iron to make what are called hydroxyl radicals. And guess what they do? They create lipid peroxides, That damages your cell membranes. Now, again, the body’s pretty darn amazing. We have glutathione, And here’s where your body’s taking glutathione and recycling it. But look who’s needed to recycle it. NADPH. So, if this guy up here is chewing it up, We don’t recycle our glutathione. And then an enzyme called glufon peroxidase 4, Takes this damaged lipid and repairs it. So, here we’ve got this protecting, we want to protect it by not having this happen. But then we also need this guy to do the restoration. So, there’s a lot that can go wrong in here, Dr. Deb. Dr. Deb Muth 00:37:07 There’s a lot that could go wrong. And I can imagine some of my listeners are thinking that lipid peroxidase, is that the same thing as what they’re thinking of when we talk about lipids and cholesterol? Is that the same process that’s happening there? Bob Miller 00:37:22 Well, no, no, the lipids can be used to make cholesterol, but here we’re talking about where they’re going to build the cell membrane. And they’re being… and they’re being, destroyed. If anybody would like to see a visual representation of this, just go on YouTube. And type in, ferrooptosis Animation. cool little video, it’s about 3 minutes long, and it shows the lipids coming over, being oxidized, and now GPX4 fixes them, so… YouTube, Pharaoptosis Animation, cute little video. It’s just that really… Shows vividly what we’re… what we’re talking about here. Now, this is… Dr. Deb Muth 00:37:59 And so this is very common, too. Like, a lot of people do hydrogen peroxide IVs. Dr. Deb Muth 00:38:04 And so, if somebody doesn’t know their genetics, they could have a problem with doing those, just like they could doing the NADHIVs, correct? Bob Miller 00:38:13 Sure, yeah, yeah, yeah. So, I’ve talked to so many, you know, of course, the hydrogen peroxide kills pathogens. I mean, that’s what it does. So… but I’ve spoken to so many people that said. I had one client that said they’ve never been the same after having one hydrogen peroxide infusion. Dr. Deb Muth 00:38:30 Interesting. Bob Miller 00:38:31 Yeah. So… it can be… I see why people use it, because it. Bob Miller 00:38:36 pathogens, But on the other hand. And now’s a good time to speak about… I don’t have it on here, but there’s a, there’s an enzyme called the HFE gene. And that is what causes you to absorb iron. And there’s mutations in it that cause something called hemochromatosis. Were you overabsorb iron? Now, true hemochromatosis is when both parents give you a mutation. But there’s now growing evidence even a heterozygous can cause a little bit more iron absorption, not to the human chromatosis point, but overabsorption. So, if you overabsorb iron, And you have too much hydrogen peroxide that’s not cleared, All kinds of inflammation. Now, what’s happened is sometimes this inflammation Will damage the red blood cells. And some well-meaning doctor says, oh, you need some iron. And they take iron and it makes it worse. So, can’t tell you how many people I’ve said, you’ve got the overabsorption of iron, and they say, well, that can’t be right, because I’m low in iron. Well, that could be because it’s being chewed up here. Dr. Deb Muth 00:39:40 Sure. GPX1 and TXN turn it into, to water. The, catalase turns it into water and oxygen. Dr. Deb Muth 00:39:58 Now, I see a lot of my clients who have mutations or SNPs on that GPX gene, on that glutathione gene. And they really struggle to clear a lot of their toxins. Bob Miller 00:40:12 Sure. Dr. Deb Muth 00:40:14 Yeah, absolutely. Well, GPX4. Bob Miller 00:40:18 is what, repairs, but you can see GPX1 Is what uses glutathione. To turn hydrogen peroxide. So, but it all depends upon having enough glutathione. Dr. Deb Muth 00:40:30 Yeah. Bob Miller 00:40:31 Well, guess who controls making a glutathione? Dr. Deb Muth 00:40:34 Nerf 2. Bob Miller 00:40:37 So, if you have a keep one weakness, or strength to two… I’m sorry, keep one is too strong. Nrf2 is too weak. You don’t make glutathione. So, when a lot of people do that, it’s like, well, I’m gonna take glutathione. Dr. Deb Muth 00:40:51 Right. Bob Miller 00:40:52 And some do great, and some do poorly. You know, because… and I’ll show this on one of the other charts. You can see here that the, The glutathione has to be recycled. And if we don’t recycle it, it actually turns into superoxide free radical. So… NADPH are the cofactors, For taking the oxidi… here’s oxidized glutathione, here’s reduced. So, this is a good glutathione. After it does its job, you can see it becomes oxidized.We need to recycle it. Well, if we have weakness on the enzyme that does that, or a weakness in Nrf2, or not enough NADPH. The oxidized glutathione never gets recycled. So, I’ve talked to a lot of people who said, oh, glutathione made me so sick, and say, well. Dr. Deb Muth 00:41:43 Yeah. Bob Miller 00:41:44 You need it, but you need to recycle it. Dr. Deb Muth 00:41:46 Can you speak for just a brief moment, too, about MTHFR? That is a very popular gene, it’s all over social media as the major gene, but can you speak to a little bit about that, and how that fits into this whole process of things? Because it is just such a small piece. Dr. Deb Muth 00:42:04 understanding genetics. Bob Miller 00:42:06 Yeah, to be honest, it drives me nuts. Dr. Deb Muth 00:42:08 Me too. Bob Miller 00:42:11 Alright, so… You know, there are people on social media I won’t say what I think, I’ll be kind. But… But the, And, you know, they might mean well. But they talk about, if you have MTHFR and COMT and PEMT, that’s… oh my goodness, that’s horrible, and we’ll fix that for you, and you’ll be fine. Bob Miller 00:42:36 it just irritates me to no end. And it really could get anybody who’s doing this legitimately in trouble. I mean, I’m afraid someday, you know, there might be some cracking down on this kind of nonsense. Now, to answer your question about MTHFR. Dr. Deb Muth 00:42:51 I mean, it really is, but I’ll tell you what, why don’t we hold that thought until I go to another map and I can actually… Okay. Bob Miller 00:42:56 But the real… the cliff notes is the MTHFR puts a methyl group on your folate, which is needed, but it has gotten way, way, way too much attention. And people learn they have MTHFR, and they start taking a multivitamin with methylfolate, then they take a B vitamin with methylfolate. Dr. Deb Muth 00:43:13 And they’re pushing it too hard. Bob Miller 00:43:15 Yeah. So I can’t tell you how many people I’ve helped by saying, stop it. Dr. Deb Muth 00:43:20 Yeah, take less of it. Bob Miller 00:43:21 Take less of it, yeah. So, yeah. Yeah, there’s a… If somebody, say, ranked the enzymes at their level of importance, MTHFR might be 40 or 50 on a scale of 100, you know. Keep one Nerf two. big deals. Dr. Deb Muth 00:43:40 deals. Bob Miller 00:43:41 NQO1 that I didn’t even talk about yet, NQO1, takes your, NA… your NAD goes into NADH, To make electrons for the electron transport chain. you need NQ01 to bring that back. If that’s not working, and I’ll show you on the NAD map how disastrous that can be. Now, the next piece is here, and I think You know, if you talk to any school teachers and say, if you’ve taught for more than 10 years, how are the kids today? Every one of them says, more ADD, ADHD, more autism. Just look at human beings, we’ve never been so agitated. You know, everybody, and it might be a social media thing, but people take a position on something, and if anybody doesn’t share that position, they view them as the enemy. Dr. Deb Muth 00:44:29 And it’s kind of scary what’s happening to us. Bob Miller 00:44:33 So, we can’t agree to disagree anymore. We see anybody who has a differing opinion as the enemy. And, you know, there was… there’s people that didn’t have Christmas dinners together, because they had political differences, like… Dr. Deb Muth 00:44:44 Excuse me. Bob Miller 00:44:45 can’t you put your political differences aside to have Christmas together, you know? Dr. Deb Muth 00:44:49 Right? Bob Miller 00:44:50 become that, you know, no matter what your position is, and I’m not saying anyone’s right or wrong, I’m just saying. You know, in the old days, they used to say that the Republicans and Democrats in Congress would argue policy and then go have dinner together. And now everybody’s all up in arms, angry. Dr. Deb Muth 00:45:05 Yeah. Bob Miller 00:45:06 So… There’s likely multiple reasons for that. But let me show you one of them. That, you know, to what degree this is… very important, we don’t know, but I think We’re beginning to believe this is very important. So, there’s something… there’s a neurotransmitter called GABA. And God buys the don’t worry, relax, be happy. Chill. Okay. Dr. Deb Muth 00:45:31 Nobody has enough of that anymore. Bob Miller 00:45:33 Well, yeah, you’ll be surprised what I’m gonna show you. So, let me see if I can find a, Let me see if I can find the right slide here. Let me look for it here. So, there’s something called a GABA receptor site. And here you can see… This is a neuron, and this is where you, The neuron normally is excitatory. However, there’s normally low chloride in the neuron. Dr. Deb Muth 00:46:09 Hmm. Bob Miller 00:46:10 So, GABA itself is neither relaxing. For excitatory, all GABA does, it opens up what’s called a chloride channel. And then chloride, which has a negative charge, will flow into the neuron. Follow me there? Dr. Deb Muth 00:46:26 Yep. Bob Miller 00:46:27 And as it does, it changes this from a positive charge to a negative charge, And it’s relaxing. and inhibitory. Dr. Deb Muth 00:46:34 Hmm. Bob Miller 00:46:36 Now, on the other hand, there’s enzymes called NKCC1, That will push chloride in. and KCC2 that will bring chlor… oops and bring chloride out. And then there’s a sodium channel. And, sodium has a positive charge. And glutamate will push that in. So, as long as this is happening. And GABA says, receptor sites, open, chloride goes in, Chill. However, If NKCC1 Pushes extra chloride in. KCC2 doesn’t pull it out. and GABA hits the receptor site, the GABA comes flowing out, Sodium comes in, And now it’s excitatory. So Gabba didn’t change. GABA just opened the receptor site, that’s all it does. Dr. Deb Muth 00:47:33 Yeah. Bob Miller 00:47:34 But it’s the chloride balance that’s going to determine whether this is relaxing or not. Now, these are the things that go along with when they lose that KCC2 or gain NKCC1. Pain and sensitivity, burning electrical, neuropathic pain. Normal touch hurts. Sound and light sensitivity. Tinnitus can flare. Headaches and migraines. Seizure tendency. Body jolts. Spasticity, cramps, stiffness, startle reflex. Trouble falling asleep, non-restorative sleep. Anxiety, stress, reactivity, that’s what we have now. Hyperarousal, panic-like surges, irritability, racing thoughts. Brain fog, slowed processing, working memory slip-ups. Mental fatigue. Episodes of racing hearts, sweaty palms, guts on edge. Those are all the things that happen when this GABA switch occurs. Now, here’s what happens, and this is what I’m going to be presenting at an autism conference. When you have a newborn, they need that NKCC dominant to develop. By early childhood, it should… or, sorry, early adulthood. we should move over to the KCC dominant, that’s the taking the chloride out. Nice-looking 25-year-old boys, functioning very well. However, when we get microglia M1 upregulated. Because of environmental toxins, processed foods, Tylenol, aluminum. they stay in NKCC1 dominant, and there’s ADD, ADHD, Autism, the whole spectrum. because… They’ve not moved over to the… They’ve not moved over to the KCC2. And again, this is caused by… Environmental factors. Stimulating the microglia. And then, interleukin-1, interleukin-18 weakens KCC2, interleukin-1 beta, Strengthens NKCC1. high chloride. We open up the chloride channel, In Rebell Excitatory. So, I think when, When the pediatricians get ahold of this, they’re going to be very excited to know that This could be why we’re seeing such a rise, and not just autism, but ADD, ADHD, anxiety, the whole shit mess. Dr. Deb Muth 00:49:58 thing. Bob Miller 00:49:59 Yeah, so… and you can see NF-kappa-B stimulates that. These stimulate it, and I think that’s why everyone’s getting so anxious. Now, there’s a little bit more to it, and we’ll get into this when we look at some of the maps, but… The, the glutamate, Which is excitatory. will stimulate the NMDA receptor, make more glutamate, And glutamate will inhibit KCC2. And then we also need an astrocyte To, take both ammonia And glutamate, and… Turn them back into glutamine. And I’m going to talk to you a little bit about arachidenic acid, and if we have too much arachidenic acid. or TNFA is upregulated, that doesn’t happen. Ammonia goes up, and there may be multiple reasons for this, but this is a reason why some of the autistic kids do flapping. Dr. Deb Muth 00:50:49 Hmm. Bob Miller 00:50:50 Because they’re not clearing their ammonia. And you can tell if somebody has high ammonia by… they get that old person smell, you know. Dr. Deb Muth 00:51:00 Yup. Bob Miller 00:51:01 your vehicle cycle’s not taking out the, the ammonia. Now, last pathway here. There’s growing interest in mast cell activation. So, back here, we talked about peroxynitride. And that will stimulate mast cells, and those are white blood cells that are your best friend, unless they’re your worst enemy. Then it’ll make histamine. And there’s enzymes called histidine decarboxylase that’ll make more. Dr. Deb Muth 00:51:28 I’m sure everybody’s heard of DAO, the enzyme that degrades histamine. Yep. Bob Miller 00:51:31 We can have genetic weakness, we don’t make that. There’s an enzyme called histamine and methyltransferase, That, That breaks down the histamine. Then if we don’t do that, it’ll get stuck in the histamine receptor site. And then it’ll make something called, renin. Which will cause angiotensinogen to turn into angiotensin. One, that turns into angiotensin II,And that’s where people make aldosterone, where they’ll get the, The swollen ankles and high blood pressure. But interestingly, there’s an enzyme called ACE2, that takes this guy and turns it into angiotensin 1-7, Which is anti-inflammatory and also inhibits… TNFA. Now, you can have weakness on ACE2, But… and anybody’s saying, that sounds familiar? Dr. Deb Muth 00:52:25 That’s where COVID comes in, using ACE2. Bob Miller 00:52:28 And now we just found there’s literature that if you get COVID long enough, it can actually make ACE2 not be able to work as well. So look what it does. It comes down here, stimulates the NADPH oxidase, More superoxide. More peroxynitrite. And we’re on a cycle here. We’ve actually named this the Home Cycle Hypothesis, the proposed feed-forward loop. That just keeps feeding on itself. All being caused by… Primarily, The environmental factors. But hitting those who have genetic weakness the hardest. That’s why. Dr. Deb Muth 00:53:08 To the people. Bob Miller 00:53:09 Don’t live in a moldy house. One person is sick as can be, and the other person says, well, you must be imagining things, because I don’t feel anything. Dr. Deb Muth Yeah. Same thing with long haul, right? Two people can both get sick, one gets sick and never seems to recover, and somebody else gets sick, and they have absolutely no problems with it at all. Bob Miller 00:53:30 Sure. Well, think about it, if you get COVID, and ACE2 is weak, and some of this other stuff is going on. This thing just starts feeding upon itself. Dr. Deb Muth 00:53:38 Keep creating more inflammation, more complications, nothing’s calming down. Bob Miller 00:53:43 Yeah. Now, you, you ask about, MTHFR. So, this is the, this is the, the software called Functional Genomic Analysis. There’s a demo report we have. So, let’s talk a little bit about, MTHFR. So, we actually have a map called a methylation map. Now, what happens is, when you do your saliva test, you, you know, you spit, you put some saliva. in a collection kit, goes to a lab, takes out the DNA data, sends it to the computer, and now you can actually see it visually. Okay. So, it’s gonna take a second for this, data to load up, it’s, and each of these Circles, each of these ovals, is an enzyme. And the data gets loaded up to see where it is. So, until it gets loaded up here, I didn’t preload this. There it goes. So… The primary thing about methylation is There’s a nasty substance called homocysteine that, if it’s too high, can really be detrimental. The body takes methylfolate, and combines with methyl B12, To bring this back up to methionine. And then through the MAT genes, we make SAMI, S-adml methionine. Which is involved in so many processes. Then after it does its thing, it turns back into homocysteine. And this thing needs to keep spinning around. That’s why, you know, it’s a good idea to keep homocysteine at, do you have a number that you’d like? 7, 8? What do you like for a number? Dr. Deb Muth 00:55:24 Yeah, I like mine below 7. Bob Miller 00:55:26 Yeah. So if the homocysteine goes too high. It, caused all kinds of problems. So, here’s where you ask about the MTHFR. So, here you can see on this individual. I click on MTHFR, and you can see it comes up here, here’s the C677. And you can see here where it says, variants. I’ll… I’ll draw in case somebody’s having a hard time seeing that. So, you can see there’s nothing in there. That means there’s no genetic mutations. If one parent would have given a mutation, there’d be a 1. If both parents did, there’d be a 2. Now, here’s why Yes, methylation is important, I’m not saying it isn’t important, but look at this MTHFRC677. In my software. Only 42.5% of the population does not have a mutation. 44.7% have won. 12.9 have 2. So, this isn’t some rare, oh my god, I’m gonna die… Kind of thing, yeah. Dr. Deb Muth 00:56:27 Right. Bob Miller 00:56:28 So, And then what happens is that, and again, I’m not dismissing methylation, I… we could do a whole show on methylation. Bob Miller 00:56:36 get it. But I think that what people are doing is they’re, they’re learning about MTHFR, they get it measured, they panic. They start taking massive amounts of methylfolate, which many times is to their detriment. Dr. Deb Muth 00:56:50 Well, it’s… and isn’t it true, too, with MTHFR, like, you have to also look at MTR, MTRR, and the more we stack up of those, the more complicated than MTHFR can be. It’s not… it’s not as simple as just saying MTHFR 677 versus 1298. It’s more complex than that, kind of like what you’ve already shown with some of the other things. There’s more to it than just that one little sliver. Bob Miller 00:57:17 Oh, sure, well, let’s take a look. So, remember I said there’s a cofactor? One of the cofactors is called FAD. Just a Bob Miller observation, that’s all. But when people have trouble with their riboflavin and they don’t have enough FAD, They’re doing much worse than people who have just a C677. So, right here, you could have perfect C677th. And if you don’t have the cofactor, it’s not gonna work, okay? Dr. Deb Muth 00:57:48 And as you said, there’s an MTR enzyme. Bob Miller 00:57:51 that takes methylfolate and methyl B12, to spin it around. So, here on this individual. here’s your… here’s your B vitamins, or I’m sorry, your B12s. There’s an enzyme called TCN1 that takes it from the stomach into the blood. Then there’s other enzymes that take it from the blood into the tissue. And if you’re having trouble here. Well, then you’re not going to have this working, so… Even if you don’t have MTHFR, And you have MTR, like this, no, I’m sorry, this person doesn’t. But they have the MTRR, and then they don’t have enough B12, this isn’t gonna work, aside from that. And then there’s a middle pathway. And then there’s enzymes called the MAT1. they take the methionine to the salmon. If that’s not working, we stick… we get stuck in methionine. So, it’s, it’s not just an MTHFR. And then, one of the things that people forget about. is through these CBS enzymes and CTH, We make cysteine, which is needed to make glutathione. The master antioxidant. So, it really is that… I call it the, The 3D chess game played underwater. Dr. Deb Muth 00:59:07 It really is. I mean, I see people who have CVS, COMT, glutathione, MGHFR genes. And some of them function just fine. Like, they have Like, I look at this person and I’m like, oh my gosh, I don’t know how they’re functioning because they’re double mutated on so many pathways, but yet they don’t have a lot of symptoms, they don’t have a lot of complications. Somehow their body has figured out a way to adapt to what it has so it can stay alive and it can function at a high functioning level. Bob Miller 00:59:36 Yeah, and they may be, you know, eating right? Yeah. Staying out of a moldy house. reducing stress. So, it’s diet, it’s stress, it’s genetics, environmental factors. So, yeah, we can’t just say somebody’s gonna be good or somebody’s gonna be bad. You know, some people get scared, oh, I got all these, it’s like, well… Bob Miller 00:59:56 Are you living in a moldy house? You know, and if you live in a moldy house and your glucuronidation pathway doesn’t do well, or if you’re, you know, a smoker, or you’re constantly eating junk food, I mean, all. Bob Miller 01:00:07 things come together. Although, you know, when we focus on genetics, we’re well aware that this is just a piece of it. You know, you could have identical twins, Genetically, and if one… Is exposed to mold and smokes and drinks and stressed out. They’re gonna be a whole lot sicker than their sibling. Bob Miller 01:00:28 Yep. Dr. Deb Muth 01:00:29 Yeah, it’s that concept of taking twins, and one gets raced with one family, and one gets raced with another family, and they don’t have the same… problems that… that each other have, you know? It’s a very unique situation, we don’t think about that enough. Bob Miller 01:00:44 Alright, so again, genetics loads the gun, environment pulls the trigger. So, if you’ve got a loaded gun, but you don’t have the triggers, you’re okay. Dr. Deb Muth 01:00:53 Yeah. Bob Miller 01:00:54 Yeah. So, remember I said I was going to talk about NAD? So, here’s NAD, and what it does, it turns into NADH. And what NADH does, it, Comes down this pathway, what’s called the electron transport chain. And that makes your ATP, that’s your energy. So, if this wasn’t working, we wouldn’t be alive, because we wouldn’t have energy. So it donates an electron, that’s why it’s called electron transport chain. So, we need NAD, To make this, to make the energy. But remember I said that NQ01, this would probably be, like, on my top 10 list of… Bob Miller 01:01:36 Much more important than MTHFR. This one takes NADH back to NAD. If we’re stuck over here, We’re low in this NAD+, But what happens is, NQO1 also provides CoQ10. And CoQ10 Is what’s needed for the electron transport chain to flow. So if we get too many electrons up here. And they don’t turn them into energy. They make a nasty free radical called superoxide. Okay. Now, NAD plus also makes NADPH, And that is needed. Remember I said we need to recycle our antioxidants. So, if we have a problem with FAD from riboflavin. Yeah, we don’t have enough NADPH, Glutathione’s not getting recycled, and you’re gonna be inflamed. And you take glutathione, you’ll feel worse. There’s another enzyme called thimoredoxin. Same thing, needs NADPH and FAD. And same way with your nitric oxide, there’s an enzyme called NOS3, That makes the nitric oxide that dilates your blood vessels. And if we don’t have enough NADPH or fat, You’re gonna make superoxide. Rather than nitric oxide. Now, remember

Part 2 of 3. In 1982 in Chicago, Illinois, people dropped dead after taking Tylenol filled with potassium cyanide. It all happened in a matter of hours and then it stopped. I will be interviewing Michelle Rosen, whose mother was one of the unfortunate victims. We will discuss the official narrative in this case, and all the illogical and perplexing actions taken by the authorities in response to the murders.

Most people assume that if a drug sits on the shelf at Costco or Walgreens, it must be pretty safe. But what if some of the most common over-the-counter (OTC) medications are among the riskiest drugs in America? On this vintage episode of Vitality Radio, Jared exposes the hidden dangers behind everyday pain relievers, sleep aids, and heartburn drugs—medicines that cause thousands of deaths every year when misused or taken long-term. You'll learn how a drug becomes “OTC,” what happens when pharmaceutical companies push for that switch, and why the FDA's approval process might not tell the whole story. Jared dives into the startling realities of PPIs like Prilosec, NSAIDs like ibuprofen, and acetaminophen (Tylenol)—uncovering their risks to the liver, kidneys, bones, and brain. He also discusses how marketing convinces consumers these drugs are harmless. Finally, Jared offers a resource for safe, natural alternatives for reflux, pain, inflammation, sleep, and immune support—options that nourish the body instead of depleting it. This episode will change the way you look at “harmless” OTC drugs and help you take real control of your health.Additional Information:#341: Your Digestive Health Supplement User's Guide.

Are you taking Advil, Tylenol, Motrin, Aleve, Excedrin, or another over-the-counter pain reliever every week — or even every day — for headaches, neck pain, back pain, joint pain, or body aches? Just because you can buy it at the drugstore does not mean it is harmless. Over-the-counter medications can carry real risks, especially when they become part of your daily routine. And more importantly, frequent pain reliever use may be a sign that your body is trying to tell you something deeper is going on.In this episode we discuss two real-life stories involving people who were taking common pain medications regularly for headaches and other chronic pain issues — and minimizing the reason why. Daily headaches are not normal. Recurring pain is not normal. Needing medication just to function is not something to brush off. There is a time and place for medication. But if you are repeatedly reaching for pain relievers, the better question is:Why is my body really trying to tell me?Headaches, neck tension, chronic pain, fatigue, poor sleep, jaw tension, inflammation, and nervous system stress are all signals. Chiropractic care looks at the body differently. Instead of simply silencing symptoms, chiropractic focuses on improving spinal function, nervous system communication, movement, and the body's ability to regulate and heal.In this episode, we'll talk about:• Why “over-the-counter” does not automatically mean “safe” • The difference between Advil/NSAIDs and Tylenol/acetaminophen • Why daily or frequent headache medication should raise a red flag • How recurring headaches may connect to spinal stress, posture, inflammation, dehydration, poor sleep, jaw tension, and nervous system dysregulation • Why pain is information — not an inconvenience to silence • How chiropractic care helps the body function better from the inside out • Why your body is not deficient in Advil, Tylenol, or Excedrin • The importance of asking better questions about your health before symptoms become bigger problems Symptoms are signals. Symptoms are the alarm. Your body is always communicating with you. The goal is not to ignore the signal, cover it up, or normalize it. The goal is to understand why it is happening and start addressing the cause.If you are taking pain medication regularly for the same recurring issue, it may be time to take a deeper look at your spine, nervous system, lifestyle, stress, inflammation, sleep, hydration, and overall health.You do not need to silence your body. You need to listen to it.Sign up for our newsletter: https://lp.constantcontactpages.com/sl/AwGmSeQ/ChiropracticIsSexyCONNECT w Dr. Ruffin!https://drruffin.com/https://www.instagram.com/drpaularuffin/https://www.facebook.com/drpaularuffinCONNECT w Dr Peabody:https://www.cafeoflifefenton.com/meet-the-doctors/ https://www.instagram.com/drericapeabody/https://www.facebook.com/erica.peabodyDisclaimer: The contents of this video are for informational purposes only and are not intended to be medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, nor to replace medical care.

Six weeks before he took the stand, surgeons fused vertebrae in Todd Gabler's neck with titanium rods. He walked into court on a cane. He told the judge he'd taken a Tylenol that morning and nothing else — no prescribed pain medication — because he wanted absolute clarity for his testimony. Nobody asked him to do that. He chose it.That moment says everything about how this case got under his skin. This wasn't a paycheck. This wasn't routine. Gabler logged over a year on this case — the phone records, the home search, the interviews, the evidence that ultimately helped put Kouri Richins away for life. And somewhere in that year, the case stopped being work and became something personal.In Part 3, Gabler gets honest with Tony Brueski about what the Kouri Richins investigation did to him. Not the evidence. Not the courtroom. The personal cost — what it's like to reconstruct the life of a dead man you never met, to sit on the wrong side of the courtroom for the first time in your career, and to wonder whether a case like this ever lets you go.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Tylenol in pregnancy — safe or dangerous? In this myth-busting episode of MamaDoc BabyDoc, we break down the headlines, the fear, and the actual science behind acetaminophen use during pregnancy. We discuss what the FDA recently said, why the controversy exploded online, and what large medical organizations like ACOG are recommending right now. We dive into the studies linking Tylenol to autism and ADHD, explain the difference between association and causation, and talk about why fever treatment in pregnancy matters. Most importantly, we help pregnant patients understand how to make informed, evidence-based decisions instead of reacting to scary social media claims. If you've wondered whether Tylenol is truly safe during pregnancy, this episode gives you the facts — without the panic.

Coming to you live outside the Grand Ballroom of the Irving Convention Center, The Movies trucks along through Texas Frightmare Weekend 2026!It's Day 2, Saturday, as I record this, but we're gonna be talking about Day 1, Friday.Friday was a learning curve. I had a massive headache, almost - almost - as equally massive anxiety and I struggled to put myself out there to chat with people and share my experience with you lovely people.But I, with the help of a pharmaceutical rapscallion who handed me Tylenol and ibuprofen, persevered. I ended Friday utterly exhausted but grateful at all I was able to see.We're talking exhibits, sweet-ass merch, Joe "Holy shit, he's the first person I see once I enter the building" Dante.

A bottle is one of the last things most people would ever fear.You pick one up every day without thinking about it. Medicine bottles. Beer bottles. Cleaning products. Water. Safe. Ordinary. Trusted.But throughout history, bottles have quietly carried some of the deadliest things imaginable.From poisoned whisky during American Prohibition… to Victorian acid tragedies… to horrifying cases involving contaminated feeding bottles… this episode explores how one of the world's most ordinary objects became one of its most dangerous.Then we dive into the terrifying true story that changed everything forever:The 1982 Tylenol murders.A case where random bottles of painkillers were secretly laced with cyanide and returned to shop shelves for unsuspecting strangers to buy. No warning. No pattern. No way of knowing which bottle would kill you.It sparked nationwide panic, changed packaging laws forever, and created the tamper-proof seals we still use today.And the killer was never conclusively identified.So next time you crack open a bottle without thinking twice…you might want to remember why those seals exist in the first place.

The 1982 Tylenol murders shocked the nation, changed consumer safety, and remain officially unsolved. Joseph Cibelli joins host Scott Syphax to discuss his book, “The Tylenol Murders: A Father's Confession to His Son,” and why he believes his own father

Is Tylenol really safe during pregnancy? Does it cause Autism? What about vaccines? And are you getting the nutrients your baby's brain actually needs?What if the most important health decisions you make during pregnancy are the ones nobody told you to think about?In this incredible & informational episode, I sit down with Dr. Ari Calhoun, naturopathic doctor, mama of two, and founder of Wholesome Brain Medicine.We're diving into the hot topics moms are actively Googling but rarely getting straight answers on: the Tylenol and autism connection, vaccines during pregnancy, and the specific nutrients that shape your baby's developing brain from the very beginning.Dr. Ari has a gift for giving you the real information without the fear spiral, and I think you're going to walk away from this episode feeling informed, empowered (and a little relieved!).Here's some highlights from the episode:The Tylenol and autism connection — what the current research actually shows and why some babies may be more vulnerable than othersHow to think through pregnancy vaccines (Tdap, RSV, and flu) individually instead of treating it as a simple yes or no decisionThe prenatal nutrients most providers aren't talking about, and why the form matters just as much as the doseWhy your microbiome during pregnancy could shape your child's long-term health in ways that might surprise youThe golden window around birth that most moms don't know exists and how to protect itSSRIs, antibiotics, and birth plans through the lens of neurodevelopmentHow to hold risk and peace at the same time, and make confident decisions even when there's no perfect answerIf you've ever felt overwhelmed by conflicting advice, dismissed by a provider, or just wanted someone to talk to you like an informed adult, this is that episode. Dr. Ari reminds us that you don't have to know everything to do right by your baby. You just have to care enough to ask the questions.

Scientists gave people Tylenol before a social rejection. It worked. Your nervous system treats being left out the same way it treats a broken bone. That is why telling yourself to just get over it has never, ever worked. And it is why this conversation with negotiation expert Kwame Christian is going to change how you see your own fear of conflict. If you're non confrontational by nature, or you've spent years being a people pleaser to keep things smooth, what Kwame explains in this episode is going to feel like the first time someone has accurately described what is actually happening inside you. The fear is not weakness. It is biology. And there is a way through it. In this episode, I sit down with Kwame Christian, CEO of the American Negotiation Institute and host of Negotiate Anything. His framework, Compassionate Curiosity, is built entirely on empathy, genuine curiosity, and a clear sense of what you actually value. We did a live roleplay about household labor and invisible work, and I want to be honest with you: I felt the shift in real time. The resistance just left. That is what this approach does. In This Episode The neuroscience behind conflict avoidance, including why social rejection activates the same neural pathways as physical pain Kwame's origin story as a people pleaser and exactly how he treated his fear of conflict like a phobia to overcome it The difference between being liked and being respected, and why only one of them gets you where you want to go A complete reframe of what negotiation actually is, and why the goal is never to win but to discover what is possible The Compassionate Curiosity framework step by step, including the pre-conversation internal work that makes you harder to rattle The Situation/Impact/Invitation opener that dissolves defensiveness before the hard conversation even begins A live roleplay on the invisible work conversation with a real-time demonstration of the shift that happens when you stop fighting What confidence in conflict actually looks like when it is not swagger Why This Matters This episode is for anyone who has ever bitten their tongue in a conversation that needed to happen. For anyone who has let something slide one too many times and felt a piece of themselves go with it. And for anyone who suspects that the life they want is on the other side of a conversation they have been too afraid to have. The best things in life are on the other side of difficult conversations. This episode will help you get there. Episode Breakdown 03:01 Why Difficult Conversations Feel Like a Threat (Not a Choice) 05:56 Kwame's Origin Story — From People Pleaser to Negotiation Expert 10:16 The Difference Between Being Liked and Being Respected 16:36 Every Difficult Conversation Is a Relationship Test 26:01 How to Stop Caring If People Are Mad at You 39:21 Negotiation Isn't What You Think It Is 51:37 The Compassionate Curiosity Framework — Live Roleplay 01:06:02 What It Actually Means to Be Confident in Conflict Resources Full article: https://www.growingself.com/how-to-have-difficult-conversations/ Free Communication Training (2-part video + workbook): https://www.growingself.com/communication/ Relationship coaching at Growing Self: https://www.growingself.com/relationship-coaching/ If today's conversation stirred something in you, you do not have to work through it alone.

Grab a beer and join us tonight as we kick off our two-part series on the 1982 Chicago Tylenol Murders. We'll start with the morning of September 29th, when a twelve-year-old girl in Elk Grove Village took a Tylenol for a cold and died, and the hours that followed as authorities slowly pieced together that the deaths spreading across the Chicago suburbs weren't a coincidence. We'll walk through the victims, the investigation, and the realization that someone had been pulling bottles off store shelves, lacing capsules with potassium cyanide, and putting them back.

Send us Fan MailDr. Ayesha Khalid, resident at Marshall University, presents findings from a large meta-analysis pooling data from eight national registries across Europe — covering 2.5 million pregnancies — to examine whether prenatal acetaminophen exposure is truly linked to autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children. She shares why the association with ASD largely disappears when accounting for heterogeneity and confounders, why the previously reported link with ADHD appears significantly smaller than what has been published, and why publication bias may have inflated the estimates we have been working from. She also addresses the critical limitation that no patient-level dose or timing data was available, why the risk-benefit calculation around fever control in pregnancy complicates any simple recommendation, and what kind of studies — ideally sibling-controlled designs like those done in Sweden — would be needed to actually settle this question.Support the showAs always, feel free to send us questions, comments, or suggestions to our email: nicupodcast@gmail.com.

In this Friday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan delivers a mix of encouraging economic news and escalating political clashes, from a rebound in U.S. manufacturing to a growing feud between President Trump and Pope Leo over war, immigration, and moral leadership. He explains how tariffs and the Iran conflict may be fueling a resurgence in American factory output, while also unpacking the increasingly public battle between the White House and the Vatican. Bryan highlights the Pope's sharp criticism of Trump's policies and the administration's equally forceful response, raising deeper questions about the role of religion in politics and global conflict. Plus, Bryan covers tightened U.S. border enforcement, including increased scrutiny of Chinese nationals entering the country, and warns about growing threats from China ranging from undersea cable disruption to espionage risks.

Autism is reversible, and the science to prove it already exists. This episode delivers a master class on the biological roots of autism, what actually triggers it, and the protocols that have helped real families recover their children, including one mom who sold everything she owned to make it happen. Host Dave Asprey sits down with Tracy Slepcevic, bestselling author of Warrior Mom: A Mother's Journey in Healing Her Son with Autism, certified integrative health practitioner, Air Force veteran, and founder of Autism Health, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to accelerating biomedical solutions for autism. Tracy has spent over 17 years researching treatments and therapies for autism and other neurological disorders, trained in complementary and alternative medicine, and built the Autism Health Summit into one of the most important annual gatherings for parents, physicians, and researchers in the autism recovery space. She is not a researcher observing from a distance. She is a mother who sold everything she owned, bartered for treatments, and traveled to Ukraine for stem cell therapy to recover her son Noah, who today lives a fully independent life, works full time, and travels the world alone. Together, Dave and Tracy tear apart the myth that autism is a fixed genetic condition and expose it for what it actually is: a biological cascade triggered by a recipe of environmental factors colliding with genetic susceptibility. They cover how mitochondrial dysfunction and chronic neuroinflammation combine to create the sensory overload and cognitive fog that defines autism, why healing the gut first is the non-negotiable foundation that determines whether every other treatment works, how glyphosate, toxic mold, heavy metals, volatile organic compounds, and vaccine injury each contribute to a compounding toxic load that crosses the threshold into autism, why plasmalogen supplements are producing results in non-speaking children that the medical establishment insists are impossible, and how AI is now accelerating the ability of parents and practitioners to identify personalized biological pathways and act on them in hours instead of months. Dave also shares his own journey reversing Asperger's syndrome over ten years through biology, mitochondrial repair, neuroplasticity retraining, and supplements, and explains why catching these conditions early and acting on them aggressively with functional medicine is the difference between a life of suffering and a life of superpowers. You'll Learn: Why autism is biological, not purely genetic, and what environmental triggers pull the trigger on susceptible children How mitochondrial collapse creates the energy deficit that drives sensory overload, social withdrawal, and cognitive dysfunction in autism Why healing the gut first determines whether every other autism treatment works or fails What plasmalogen supplements are doing for non-speaking children and adults with neurological disorders How glyphosate, toxic mold, heavy metals, and volatile organic compounds compound into the recipe that causes autism Why AI is transforming the ability of autism parents to identify personalized amino acid and supplement protocols overnight How Dave reversed Asperger's syndrome through mitochondrial repair, neuroplasticity retraining, and targeted supplements What stem cell therapy accomplished for Tracy's son Noah within 30 days of treatment Why genetic testing before any vaccine or medication schedule should be mandatory for every child How to clean your home environment of the VOCs, mold, and bacterial toxins that drive neuroinflammation in the whole family Why the gifts that come with an autism diagnosis can become genuine superpowers once the biology gets fixed Thank you to our sponsors! - BrainTap | Go to http://braintap.com/dave to get $100 off the BrainTap Power Bundle. - AirDoctor | Go to https://airdoctorpro.com/daveasprey and save up to $300 on Air Purifiers. - Puori | Go to Puori.com/DAVE or use code DAVE at checkout to get 32% off your Puori Fish Oil subscription.
