Think you'd know if you had parasites? Many people assume parasite symptoms are obvious, like severe diarrhea or illness after international travel. But as this episode reveals, parasites can show up in unexpected ways, including constipation, chronic skin rashes, and symptoms unrelated to digestion.Join me to unpack three common parasite myths that you cannot trust. And believing in them keeps you from healing while distracting you from important clues in your own health journey.

www.patreon.com/theconspiracypodcastBefore the moonwalk. Before the glove. Before Neverland, before the tabloids, before the world decided it knew exactly who Michael Jackson was — there was a kid in Gary, Indiana who wasn't allowed to touch his father's guitar.Most people know the legend. Few know the price.Michael Jackson didn't have a childhood. He had rehearsals. He had a belt across the chair and a father who saw dollar signs where other dads saw sons. By the time he was eight years old he was performing in nightclubs, watching the adult world at its worst, and being told that was normal. It wasn't normal. None of it was.And yet — out of all of that — came Thriller. The moonwalk. Four consecutive number one singles before he was twelve. A catalog worth billions. A chimp in a matching outfit eating dinner at the table.But also Neverland. Also the allegations. Also a death that still doesn't sit right.This week we start at the beginning — Gary, Indiana, Joe Jackson, the Apollo Theater, Motown, Quincy Jones, and the private world Michael built when he finally had enough money to build whatever he wanted. We get into the stuff most people don't know, the stuff that actually explains everything, and we set the table for what's coming in Part 2.And trust us — Part 2 gets dark.Timestamps:00:00 — Intro, Patreon shoutouts & gas prices somehow leading to Michael Jackson04:00 — Why we're covering MJ now & our bias going in (we love him, sue us)07:00 — Gary, Indiana: the two-bedroom house, 11 people, and Joe Jackson11:00 — Joe discovers the boys' talent & the rehearsals begin — belt on the chair13:00 — Michael describes the abuse & why the sight of his father made him physically ill15:00 — "Big Nose" — the nickname that quietly explains everything about his face16:00 — The Jackson 5 is born & Michael joins at six years old18:00 — Winning the Apollo, Gladys Knight, Berry Gordy & the Motown signing19:00 — Diana Ross "presents" them — the marketing ploy that worked perfectly20:00 — Four consecutive number ones straight out the gate, Jacksonmania hits22:00 — Growing up backstage in nightclubs — what Michael saw at age 7 and 823:00 — His Grammy speech: "My childhood was taken away from me"25:00 — Was it worth it?

If you've got a penicillin allergy, this episode is crucial for you! That's because you can outgrow a drug allergy like this even if you developed it as an adult. Antibiotic allergies are either misdiagnosed or fade over time. Even if you avoid taking antibiotics like the plague, having a drug allergy on your medical chart can end up limiting treatment options if you find yourself truly needing them.In this episode, my guest, Dr. Mariana Castells, breaks down how drug allergies are diagnosed, how long they take to disappear, why they can appear later in life, and how “drug delabeling” could dramatically improve your care (especially when something serious happens). Dr. Mariana Castells, M.D., Ph.D., is a world-renowned expert in allergy and immunology with over 30 years of experience. Whether you have an antibiotic allergy (or you know someone who does), this is a must-listen interview!⭐️Mentioned in This Episode:- See all the references
In this 2025 Year in Review solo episode of Derms and Conditions, host James Q. Del Rosso, DO, reflects on the standout conversations, clinical insights, and new formats that shaped the series over the past year. Dr Del Rosso opens by highlighting the launch of Tea with Dr. D, a sister vodcast that brings expert discussions to video, incorporating slides and procedural footage. He spotlights an episode with HS expert Lauren Lam, MD, who walks through comprehensive hidradenitis suppurativa management from patient check-in through long-term care. He also reviews Spilling the Tea with Dr. D, a hybrid audio-video mailbag format that addresses listener-submitted clinical questions. He then revisits key moments from the core Derms and Conditions series, beginning with Michael Payette, DO, who discussed building a dedicated HS clinic, collaborating with nondermatology providers, and his early adoption of GLP-1 agents for inflammatory disease management. Additional highlights include an episode with E. James Song, MD, on modern nb-UVB phototherapy units and practical guidance for safe implementation, as well as a unique discussion with Clay Cockerell, MD, JD, on estate planning considerations for physicians.

Dr Del Rosso also revisits episodes on extended-release minocycline for rosacea, oral JAK inhibitors in older adults, challenging case-based discussions, evolving approaches to photoprotection and skin care counseling, and emerging therapies across alopecia areata, hyperhidrosis, tyrosine kinase 2 inhibition in psoriasis, and chronic hand eczema, including a recent FDA approval.

Do you feel like you get crazy histamine intolerance symptoms as your body reacts to everything — certain foods, smells, stress, or even the weather? Symptoms such as itchy skin, rashes, dermatographia, angioedema, bloating, or headaches that seem to appear out of nowhere are often linked to histamine intolerance.But before you blame your diet and dive headfirst into a low-histamine diet, know that food isn't likely to blame. After working with over 1,000 clients, I can tell you that there are deeper, more pressing issues that drive urticaria and chronic hives.Let's dive into why you probably don't have histamine intolerance (despite having all the symptoms), how histamine intolerance differs from MCAS, and what's really triggering these crazy histamine reactions. From mold exposure to liver detox issues and hormone imbalances, we explore how these hidden factors can lead to ongoing inflammation and itchy skin that just won't quit.⭐️Mentioned in This Episode:- FREE Root Cause Finder Guide - https://www.skinterrupt.com/rootcauseguide-pod - See all the references
In this episode of Derms and Conditions, host James Q. Del Rosso, DO, sits down with Pearl Grimes, MD, to discuss the latest understanding and management of vitiligo, a field experiencing significant scientific and therapeutic momentum. With the approval of topical ruxolitinib and multiple oral JAK inhibitors on the horizon, these developments are enabling clinicians to better tailor therapy to the diverse needs of their patients. They begin with a discussion on setting patient expectations around treatment duration. With vitiligo therapies requiring long-term commitment, Dr Grimes explains that it is a chronic disease requiring ongoing management, whether using older therapies or newer JAK inhibitors. By establishing realistic expectations early, patients are less likely to abandon therapy prematurely when repigmentation is not yet visible. They also address common misconceptions around skin type. While vitiligo is more noticeable in darker skin, its prevalence is similar across all skin tones. In her clinical experience and in ruxolitinib trials and emerging oral JAK data, Dr Grimes has observed meaningful repigmentation across phototypes, with no major response differences that would warrant altering expectations for lighter-skinned patients. They next discuss practical therapeutic considerations, including typical timelines for assessing response and the role of regimen adjustments during the first year. When using ruxolitinib, she considers disease extent, anatomic site, and expected repigmentation patterns, noting that the face and neck tend to respond best, with the hands remaining challenging. She also reviews her approach to initial workup, including autoimmune screening, particularly for thyroid disease, as well as her use of supplements to mitigate oxidative stress pathways implicated in melanocyte destruction. Tune in to the full episode to hear Dr Grimes share additional clinical pearls, discuss combination strategies, and offer guidance on setting patients up for long-term success in vitiligo management.
Is it just an eczema (atopic dermatitis) flare or could it be something else? Most people don't realize that Staph aureus could be the hidden skin flare trigger that actively weakens your skin barrier, triggering more inflammation, itchiness, and persistent eczema symptoms. Even if it seems “normal,” the presence of Staph might point to deeper imbalances that need attention.In this episode, we dig into how Staph aureus, the gut microbiome, environmental toxins, and even air pollution can all contribute to recurring eczema.Joining me is Dr. Peter Lio, a board-certified dermatologist and respected voice in integrative dermatology. He's a Clinical Assistant Professor at Northwestern University and has authored over 100 papers, along with a textbook on Integrative Dermatology.If you're ready to understand why your eczema isn't clearing up, this is a must-listen conversation filled with insight and practical takeaways.⭐️Mentioned in This Episode:- Learn how to address your Eczema root causes

Could your fatigue, bloating, or random skin rashes be more than “just stress” or IBS? You might be shocked to learn they could actually be signs of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) or even colon cancer — yes, it's possible without having obvious digestive symptoms.It's unfortunately common to discover that you have Crohn's or ulcerative colitis in your 60s, and not because of gut issues… but during a routine colonoscopy screening. Others are misdiagnosed for years while battling brain fog, thyroid problems, skin issues like psoriasis, vitiligo, eczema, or even unexplained anemia — all while the real problem quietly worsens.I'm joined by Dr. Ilana Gurevich, a naturopathic gastroenterologist who specializes in complex GI disorders. We dive into the hidden signs of IBD, how it differs from IBS, sneaky signs of colon cancer (especially with skyrocketing rates), and the TRUTH about colonoscopies – why you should absolutely stop putting it off and never use a stool test for gut health as a replacement.If you've been brushed off, gaslit, or still searching for answers, you don't want to miss this.⭐️Mentioned in This Episode:- See all the references
Episode 25:41 The (Natural) Autoimmune Solution It is estimated that nearly 50 million Americans suffer with an autoimmune disorder. Conditions such as Hashimoto's, Crohn's, Ulcerative Colitis, Multiple Sclerosis, Type 1 Diabetes, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Psoriasis and Vitiligo. The cause, according to the medical profession, is unknown. I don't believe that. The treatment, according to the medical profession, focuses on drugs. Drugs such as Immunosuppressants, Anti-Inflammatories, Corticosteroids, and Pain killers. I don't agree with that. The mechanism of action is that the Immune System starts attacking healthy cells. I don't think that's correct. So, what do I think? THAT is what this episode is all about. The cause, treatment and mechanism of action regarding autoimmune disorders. It's an episode that will certainly ruffle some feathers while also shedding some light on an interesting subject. Be sure to give it a good listen… especially if you, or someone you know, suffers with an autoimmune disorder. And, as always, please share it with a friend. Thanks! ———————- Want to learn more?
