Beat Immune Ageing & Chronic Inflammation – Dr. Elizabeth Yurth Reveals the Secret to Staying Young
Welcome back to the second part of the Aevum Labs Series on Immune Health! In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Elizabeth Yurth, founder of the Boulder Longevity Institute, to explore the fascinating world of immunosenescence—the ageing of the immune system—and its connection to inflammaging, chronic inflammation that accelerates aging. Dr. Yurth explains how the decline of our immune system not only affects our resilience to infections but also plays a pivotal role in the development of chronic diseases, neurodegeneration, and overall cellular decline. We dive into how gut health, immune health, and cellular health are deeply interconnected, with 70–80% of our immune system residing in and around the gut. Learn how chronic systemic inflammation and gut permeability can break down your immune defenses and how you can turn back the clock on immune ageing. We also introduce our exciting new product developed in conjunction with Dr Yurth as a scientific advisor, from Aevum Labs—Rejuvenate—which is specifically designed to target immune decline, support cellular health, and reduce chronic inflammation. Dr. Yurth explains how the ingredients in Rejuvenate help restore immune vitality, protect brain health, and improve gut barrier integrity. Key Topics Discussed: What is immunosenescence? Understanding how and why our immune system declines with age. The link between chronic systemic inflammation (inflammaging) and ageing—why targeting inflammation is essential for longevity. The gut-immune connection: Why 70–80% of your immune system resides in the gut and how gut health affects brain health and systemic inflammation. Practical strategies to combat immune aging, from diet and lifestyle interventions to cutting-edge supplements. 🧬✨The Role of Rejuvenate in Fighting Immunosenescence and Inflammaging 💡Shop Now: 💡Find Out More: | Rejuvenate, the flagship product from Aevum Labs, is formulated to help slow the decline of the immune system by addressing chronic inflammation, improving gut barrier health, and supporting cellular repair. 🌱 Key Ingredients and Their Benefits: Immune Defense Protein (IDP) – Produced by Quantec, this innovative bioactive protein has powerful immune-modulating properties.

He has over three decades of experience in biotech, including significant contributions to telomerase research. Dr. Andrews holds over 50 U.S. patents related to telomerase activation and has authored numerous scientific papers. Through his work at Sierra Sciences, he aims to unlock the secrets of human longevity and help people live healthier, longer lives. As a scientist, athlete, and executive, Bill continually pushes the envelope and challenges convention. He has been featured in Popular Science, The Today Show, and numerous documentaries on the topic of life extension including, most recently, the movie The Immortalists in which he co-stars with Dr. Aubrey de Grey. Bill has been a medical researcher in biotech since 1981, focusing on cancer, heart disease, and inflammation research, though his passion has always been ageing. In the early-to-mid 1990s, while at Geron Corporation, Bill led the research to discover both the RNA and protein components of the human enzyme called telomerase. This enzyme is responsible for preventing telomeres from shortening in human reproductive cells, and this is why our children are born younger than we are even though they come from our old cells. Inducing this enzyme to lengthen telomeres in all our cells, not just our reproductive cells, to reverse aging and declining health due to aging, is the principal goal of Sierra Sciences and Sierra Holdings.

Brain Injury Breakthroughs: Dr. Mark Allen on Healing Post-Concussion Syndrome
In this eye-opening episode, we dive deep into the world of post-concussion syndrome (PCS) and brain health with Dr. Mark Allen of Cognitive FX, a leading expert in brain repair. PCS affects millions worldwide, yet many are left frustrated with lingering symptoms like brain fog, fatigue, and headaches. Dr. Allen shares his groundbreaking approach that combines the latest in neuroscience with a holistic, multidisciplinary method to treat and heal the brain. Key topics include: Why Functional MRI (fMRI) is a Game Changer: How it identifies hidden brain dysfunction and tailors treatments to individual needs. Integrated Healing Strategies: From vestibular rehabilitation and neuromuscular therapy to high-intensity interval training (HIIT) programs designed for the brain. Cognitive and Sensory Therapy: Rewiring the brain through targeted cognitive tasks and sensory integration work. The Role of Neurointegration and Occupational Therapy: Enhancing brain-body connections for long-term recovery. Timely Treatment vs. Old Injuries: Why starting treatment early yields the best results, but even years-old injuries can still benefit significantly from intervention. Dr. Allen explains how this multifaceted approach not only addresses symptoms but helps restore overall brain function, enabling patients to return to their lives with clarity, focus, and vitality. Whether you're dealing with a recent injury or have struggled with PCS for years, this episode is a must-watch for anyone seeking answers and actionable solutions. 🤝 Connect with Dr. Mark Allen: Learn more about Dr. Mark Allen's expertise in cognitive rehabilitation and neuroplasticity by visiting his website.

The Secret To Building Muscle Longevity With Dr. Chris Meletis
11/28/2024
The Secret To Building Muscle Longevity With Dr. Chris Meletis
In this episode, we dive deep into the science of muscle health with Dr. Chris Meletis, exploring why maintaining muscle mass is critical as we age and how MYOS MD's revolutionary supplement, Fortetropin, can play a pivotal role in combating muscle loss. Key Topics Covered: The Importance of Muscle for Longevity: Muscles act as the currency of longevity, influencing metabolism, physical functionality, myokine production, hormone balance, and overall musculoskeletal health. After age 40, muscle loss (sarcopenia) accelerates, with lean body mass decreasing by 1-2% annually and strength declining 1.5-5% per year. This impacts mobility, independence, and systemic health. Understanding Myostatin and Its Role: Myostatin is a natural protein that inhibits muscle growth, preventing excess muscle accumulation. While beneficial in early development, elevated myostatin levels with age, injury, or illness can exacerbate muscle wasting and hinder recovery. How MYOS MD's Fortetropin Helps: Fortetropin, derived from fertilized chicken egg yolk, is clinically proven to lower myostatin levels and support muscle protein synthesis. Benefits include: Increased muscle mass and strength. Reduced muscle breakdown. Enhanced recovery after injury or surgery. Clinical trials show an 18% increase in protein synthesis in older adults after just 21 days of supplementation without changes to diet or exercise. Applications of Fortetropin: Protecting lean body mass during weight loss, especially with GLP-1 treatments or bariatric surgery. Supporting recovery from injuries or surgeries where muscle atrophy is a concern. Enhancing physical performance for athletes and active individuals. Practical Insights and Dosing: Typical starting dose: 6.6 grams per day. Easy to incorporate into daily routines—mix with shakes, yogurt, or water. Pair with amino acids, CoQ10, and a protein-rich diet for optimal results. The Bigger Picture: Dr. Meletis explains how muscle health impacts metabolic function, bone density, and overall aging. Strategies to combat sarcopenia include resistance training, balanced nutrition, and innovative interventions like Fortetropin. Resources: Learn more about MYOS MD and Fortetropin: . Explore Dr. Chris Meletis's work: . Clinical studies referenced during the podcast are available on the MYOS MD website. This conversation is packed with actionable insights for anyone looking to age healthfully, maintain their independence, and optimize their body's functionality. Don't miss it! BIO Dr. Chris D.

The Power Of Plasmalogens In Restoring Health With Dr. Dayan Goodenowe
11/21/2024
The Power Of Plasmalogens In Restoring Health With Dr. Dayan Goodenowe
In this fascinating episode, we're joined by Dr. Dayan Goodenowe, a visionary neuroscientist and founder of Prodrome Sciences, to explore the groundbreaking potential of plasmalogens in restoring health and optimizing longevity. Dr. Goodenowe's work is transforming how we approach chronic conditions, such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, autism, multiple sclerosis (MS), long COVID, and cardiovascular issues. We discuss the role of plasmalogens, Prodrome Sciences' advanced diagnostic tools, and how his Restorative Health Centre is making these innovations accessible for proactive health management. Episode Highlights 1. What Are Plasmalogens, and Why Are They Essential? Dr. Goodenowe explains the critical role of plasmalogens, unique lipids that maintain cell membrane integrity, support the immune system, and regulate oxidative stress. These lipids, particularly abundant in the brain and heart, are essential for neuron function, immune resilience, and cardiovascular health. Research shows that low levels of plasmalogens are linked to neurodegenerative diseases, immune dysfunction, and other chronic conditions, positioning plasmalogens as a key factor in preventive and restorative health. 2. Prodrome Scan: Personalized Health Insights Through Plasmalogen Measurement The Prodrome Scan, a pioneering health assessment tool developed by Dr. Goodenowe, measures plasmalogen levels to detect potential deficiencies early on. This scan provides practitioners and individuals with insights into the body's biochemical state, allowing them to address risks for conditions like cognitive decline, heart disease, and immune system issues. By identifying these risks ahead of time, the Prodrome Scan empowers users to take proactive steps to preserve health and delay or prevent disease onset. 3. How Plasmalogens Impact Neurodegenerative Conditions In neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, plasmalogen levels are typically depleted. Dr. Goodenowe explains how supplementing with plasmalogen precursors can protect neuron membranes, reduce oxidative damage, and improve brain function, potentially slowing or reversing disease progression. His products, Prodrome Glia (Omega-9) and Prodrome Neuro (Omega-3), are designed to target both glial cells and neurons, offering holistic support for cognitive and neurological resilience. 4. Advanced Imaging and Diagnosis at the Restorative Health Centre Dr. Goodenowe's Restorative Health Centre takes health assessment and intervention to a new level by offering advanced MRI imaging, which includes proprietary scans for brain health. This cutting-edge imaging allows for detailed visualization of brain structures, which, combined with plasmalogen measurements, provides unparalleled insights into brain health and early indicators of neurodegenerative conditions. By integrating these advanced diagnostic tools, the centre allows for early, precise intervention, tailored to each person's needs. 5. Training Practitioners in Restorative Medicine Dr. Goodenowe's work goes beyond patient care; he is dedicated to educating healthcare practitioners on the science of plasmalogens and restorative health. Prodrome Sciences offers an in-depth training program for practitioners to understand, interpret, and apply the Prodrome Scan and other tools in clinical practice. By training practitioners, Dr. Goodenowe is expanding the reach of this groundbreaking science, equipping professionals with knowledge and tools to better serve their patients with targeted, science-backed interventions. 6. Applications Beyond Brain Health: Cancer, Autism, Long COVID, Dr. Goodenowe discusses the broader applications of plasmalogens beyond brain health, including in conditions like autism, where they support neural connectivity, and long COVID, where they strengthen immune function and resilience. Plasmalogens have anti-inflammatory properties that can aid recovery from chronic viral infections and help support the immune system in its defense against future challenges. He also discusses plasmalogens in cancer. 7. Cardiovascular Benefits of Plasmalogens In addition to neurological and immune health, plasmalogens play a protective role in cardiovascular health. Plasmalogen supplementation supports heart cell function, improves lipid metabolism, and helps maintain the integrity of arterial walls, reducing the risk of cardiovascular events. Dr. Goodenowe explains how Prodrome Glia's Omega-9 plasmalogens can be especially beneficial for heart health. 8. Phosphatidylcholine and Mitochondrial Support for Enhanced Cellular Health Dr. Goodenowe emphasizes the importance of phosphatidylcholine and mitochondrial health as complementary strategies for cellular resilience. Phosphatidylcholine strengthens cell membranes, while mitochondrial support through targeted nutrients enhances energy production, reducing cellular stress and aging markers. 9. How Plasmalogens Fit Into the Larger Picture of Restorative Health Throughout the interview, Dr. Goodenowe illustrates a unique perspective on health by focusing on restoration rather than simply managing symptoms. By measuring biomarkers like plasmalogens, we can intervene before symptoms manifest, thereby preventing the onset of chronic diseases and supporting longevity. Key Takeaways: Plasmalogens - are essential for cellular and neurological health, with depletion linked to many chronic conditions. Prodrome Scan - is a groundbreaking tool that assesses plasmalogen levels, enabling early intervention. Restorative Health Centre - offers advanced MRI imaging and personalized diagnostics for comprehensive health assessment. Prodrome Glia and Prodrome Neuro - supplements provide tailored plasmalogen support for glial and neuronal health. Dr. Goodenowe's practitioner training program brings the science of plasmalogens to a wider audience, equipping clinicians to improve patient outcomes.

BIO Dr. Goodenowe is a PhD neuroscientist, biochemist, synthetic organic chemist, inventor, and clinical research expert. In 1999, he invented and patented a revolutionary ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry technology that, for the first time in history, made it possible to comprehensively monitor human biochemistry. Using this advanced technology, Dr. Goodenowe analyzed blood samples from tens of thousands of persons of all ages, of all races, and from multiple countries. The biochemistry of healthy persons was compared to persons suffering from disease. A diverse range of over 20 diseases from autism to dementia, and from colon cancer to heart disease was studied. The biochemistry of young versus old, and all-cause mortality was studied. This research led to his discovery that early mortality and each human disease has a biochemical prodrome. These discoveries led to an extensive patent portfolio of diagnostic tests for the early detection and screening of diseases such as specific cancers (colon, pancreatic, ovarian, breast, lung, prostate, and many more), autism, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's, ALS, Alzheimer's, dementia, bipolar disease, schizophrenia, unipolar depression, cardiovascular disease, and others. Dr. Goodenowe created the ProdromeSCAN™ blood test which measures all of the key prodrome biomarkers and offers advanced laboratory test interpretation training for health practitioners.

In this weeks episode of "Pushing the Limits" , Dr. David Furman, Director of the 1000 immunomes project, the world's largest longitudinal population-based study of immunology and aging at Stanford University and Associate Professor at the Buck Institute for Aging, Founder of Edifice Health and Cosmica Biosciences, discusses his extensive research in immunology, particularly focusing on the 1000 Immunomes Project, which aims to understand the immune system's role in aging. He emphasizes the importance of studying human biology over traditional animal models and introduces the concept of the Inflammation Age Clock as a new biomarker for aging. The discussion also covers the implications of systemic chronic inflammation in aging, the role of nutrition, and the potential for interventions to improve health span. Additionally, Dr. Furman shares insights into his work with NASA on accelerated aging in astronauts, highlighting the broader applications of his research in combating age-related diseases. Takeaways: Dr. Furman aims to have a massive impact on human health. The immune system plays a crucial role in aging. Human studies provide better insights than animal models. The Inflammation Age Clock is a new biomarker for aging. Chronic inflammation is a key factor in age-related diseases. Nutrition significantly affects inflammation and aging. Reliable biomarkers are needed for effective aging interventions. NASA's research on astronauts reveals accelerated aging in space. The convergence of technologies is revolutionizing health research. Future research will focus on protecting astronauts and advancing aging studies. Titles: System Chronic Inflammation: The Hidden Driver of Aging Nutrition and Inflammation: Key Factors in Health span About the 1000 immunomes Project: The Stanford 1000 Immunomes Project (KIP) is a collaborative ongoing study at Stanford University that aims to define the biological basis of aging and disease using state-of-the-art 'omics' platforms and advanced artificial intelligence (AI) methods. The main focus of 1KIP is to establish biomarkers for healthy versus sub-functional immune systems. They do this by identifying the interactions between genetic and environmental factors, which contribute to the observed heterogeneity of biological responses in human beings. To this end, 1000 individuals of different age groups (9-96 years old) were recruited between 2007-2017. Their blood samples were screened using multiple state-of-the-art technologies at a single facility, the Human Immune Monitoring Center (HIMC) to measure circulating proteins, cell types, cellular functions, whole-genome blood gene expression and subjects' haplotypes using deep sequencing technologies. The 1KIP dataset has enabled us for the first time to identify reliable biomarkers of aging and disease in a longitudinal population-based study of immunology and aging. 1KIP provides reference values for thousands of immune variables and identifies clusters of individuals sharing similar health versus disease immune profiles. BIO Dr. David Furman is an academic entrepreneur deeply committed to addressing intricate challenges within human biology, systems medicine, translational immunology, preventative healthcare, aging, and precision longevity. Holding positions as the Director of the Stanford 1000 Immunomes Project at the Stanford School of Medicine and as an Associate Professor and Director of the Bioinformatics and Data Science Core at the Buck Institute for Research on Aging, Dr. Furman leads research endeavors that leverage multi-scale biology ('omics') platforms and advanced AI/ML methodologies. He identifies biomarkers and integrative biological clocks essential for monitoring individual health statuses. Groundbreaking technologies originating from the Furman lab now facilitate the application of descriptive and mechanistic biomarkers to detect and combat accelerated aging and disease progression. With over 15 years of specialization in inflammation's role in aging mechanisms, Dr. Furman's expertise includes various domains, including neuroscience, cardiovascular health, metabolic diseases, and immune system function. Notably, in 2022, NASA's Human Research Program sought Dr. Furman's collaboration, leading to partnerships with SpaceX and Cornell University. Dr. Furman's entrepreneurial initiatives include the founding of the Inflammaging Institute, aimed at democratizing biological aging diagnosis, and the establishment of Stanford spin-off Edifice Health Inc., and Buck Institute spin-off Cosmica Biosciences Inc., both focused on innovative approaches to combat aging-related ailments and precision longevity interventions.

Precision Psychiatry & Holistic Mental Health With Dr. Mizyl Damayo
09/26/2024
Precision Psychiatry & Holistic Mental Health With Dr. Mizyl Damayo
In this insightful episode, we are joined by Dr. Mizyl Damayo, a holistic psychiatrist and founder of **Paradise Behavioral Health. Dr. Damayo specializes in precision psychiatry, an approach that goes beyond traditional psychiatric treatments to address the underlying causes of mental health disorders. She combines modern science with integrative, holistic therapies to deliver customized care tailored to each patient's unique needs. Key Topics Covered: * Precision Psychiatry: - What it is and why it's revolutionizing mental health treatment. *Nutrient Deficiencies and Toxicities: - How imbalances in essential vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients can contribute to mental health issues, and how correcting these imbalances leads to improved brain function. *Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT): The critical role hormones play in mood regulation, anxiety, and depression, and why balancing hormones is essential for mental wellness. *Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT): - A deep dive into how HBOT supports brain function, helps repair neural damage, and promotes overall mental clarity and emotional balance. *Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS): - How TMS is offering new hope for treatment-resistant depression by using magnetic pulses to stimulate brain regions involved in mood regulation. *The Limitations of Traditional Drug Therapy: - Why relying solely on medications to treat psychiatric conditions often fails to address the root causes of mental health issues, leading to incomplete or temporary relief. Ailments Dr. Damayo Treats: Dr. Damayo works with a wide range of psychiatric and neurological conditions, including: Depression** (including treatment-resistant depression) Anxiety disorders Bipolar disorder Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) Chronic fatigue and brain fog Cognitive decline and memory issues Her precision psychiatry approach focuses on identifying the root causes of these disorders rather than just managing symptoms with medications. By uncovering nutrient deficiencies, toxicities (such as heavy metals), hormonal imbalances, and even neural damage, Dr. Damayo's approach offers a **whole-person** treatment plan that leads to more sustained mental and physical health. Why the Traditional Drug Approach Isn't Enough: For decades, the standard treatment for mental health disorders has been primarily **pharmaceutical drugs**. While these medications can provide symptom relief, they often fail to address the underlying causes of mental health conditions. Patients may experience side effects, dependence, or only partial relief. Dr. Damayo believes that while drugs can be part of the treatment, they should not be the only approach. By focusing on the root causes—such as nutrient imbalances, toxic buildup, and hormonal fluctuations—Dr. Damayo is able to offer a more comprehensive and effective solution. Her practice also emphasizes natural healing methods, such as hyperbaric oxygen therapy and ranscranial magnetic stimulation, which can significantly enhance brain health and recovery. Advanced Therapies Explained: *Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT): - By delivering oxygen under high pressure, HBOT increases oxygen levels in the brain, which helps heal damaged tissues, reduce inflammation, and promote neurogenesis (the growth of new brain cells). This therapy has been particularly beneficial for patients with cognitive issues, brain fog, and trauma-related conditions. * Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS): - TMS is a non-invasive, FDA-approved treatment that stimulates specific areas of the brain using magnetic pulses. It has shown remarkable success in treating depression, especially in cases where antidepressants have failed. TMS is also being explored for conditions like anxiety, PTSD, and OCD. Dr. Damayo's Unique Approach: Dr. Damayo's **precision psychiatry** integrates lab testing to identify deficiencies, environmental toxins, and other imbalances that could be contributing to mental health issues. Her personalized treatment plans may include **nutrient supplementation**, **detoxification protocols**, **hormone replacement**, and advanced therapies like HBOT and TMS. This **holistic model** looks at both the **mental and physical** aspects of health, understanding that the two are deeply interconnected. Mental health is complex, and there's no one-size-fits-all solution. Dr. Mizyl Damayo's innovative approach offers hope to those who have struggled with traditional treatments by focusing on the root causes of psychiatric conditions. Her **holistic and personalized** methods are helping patients achieve not just symptom relief, but true healing and long-term wellness. For more information about Dr. Damayo's practice and her unique precision psychiatry approach, visit her website at [Paradise Behavioral Health](. BIO Dr. Damayo is board certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology and by the Board of Preventive Medicine in Addiction Medicine. She uses the integrative medicine for mental healtyh and the precision psychiatry philosophy in treating her psychiatruc patients, focusing primarily on treating the root cause with an emphasis on supplements, lifestyle and therapy rather than just reaching for a pill to mask the psychiatric symptoms. She has been a speaker for the local community and national conferences sharing her knowledge for mental health and treatment options from a functional psychiatric approach. She is certified by the Millenium Health Network to treat Traumatic Brain Injury focusing on decreasing inflammation and supporting hormone balance for a whole person approach in their recovery. She is the owner and medical director of Paradise Behavioral Health, a mental health clinic in Southwest Florida. She is also the medical director of Community Behavioral health that has clinics in Cape Coral and Miami FL. She is the creator of the Brain Well Program that uses the principles of precision psychiatry which looks into the root causes of mental illness using biomarkers that includes genetics and blood work.

Healing Brains: How Omega-3s Can Prevent And Repair The Brain Dr. Michael Lewis
09/19/2024
Healing Brains: How Omega-3s Can Prevent And Repair The Brain Dr. Michael Lewis
In this episode, we have the privilege of speaking with Dr. Michael Lewis, renowned expert in brain health and traumatic brain injury (TBI), and author of the groundbreaking book, When Brains Collide. Dr. Lewis is the founder of the Brain Health Education and Research Institute and BrainCARE. With a military background and extensive experience in traumatic brain injuries, Dr. Lewis has dedicated his career to exploring how omega-3 fish oils can play a vital role in preventing and recovering from concussions, TBI, stroke, and neurodegenerative diseases. Key Discussion Points 1. The Role of Omega-3 Fish Oils in Brain Health Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA) and Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA), the primary omega-3 fatty acids found in fish oil, are crucial for maintaining brain structure and function. Omega-3s are anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective, making them vital in protecting the brain from injury and supporting recovery. 2. High-Dose Omega-3 Fish Oil for Concussions and Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) Dr. Lewis emphasizes how high-dose fish oil can help mitigate damage following a concussion or TBI. Dosing Protocols: In acute brain injury cases, Dr. Lewis recommends significantly higher doses of fish oil (e.g., up to 3-9 grams of combined DHA and EPA per day) to reduce inflammation, promote healing, and restore brain cell membrane integrity. Case studies demonstrate remarkable improvements in TBI patients, including quicker recovery times, reduced brain fog, and restored cognitive function. 3. Fish Oils for Neurodegeneration and Stroke Prevention Regular intake of omega-3s is shown to be effective in reducing the risk of neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. Omega-3s help prevent stroke by reducing blood clot formation, improving vascular health, and lowering inflammation in brain tissues. Dr. Lewis advocates for omega-3s as part of a preventive strategy, particularly for aging individuals at higher risk of neurodegenerative conditions. 4. Using Omega-3s as Preventive Medicine Consistent omega-3 supplementation is not just for recovery—it's crucial for maintaining optimal brain health. Athletes, military personnel, and individuals at risk for head trauma should use omega-3s proactively to strengthen their brain's resilience to injury. Preventative Dosing: Dr. Lewis suggests a daily intake of at least 2-3 grams of DHA and EPA combined for ongoing brain health and injury prevention. 5. How to Choose a High-Quality Fish Oil Dr. Lewis explains the criteria for identifying a high-quality fish oil supplement: Purity: Free from contaminants like heavy metals and toxins. Potency: Look for a high concentration of DHA and EPA. Stability: Avoid fish oils that oxidize easily, as rancid oils can be harmful. Sourcing: Prefer fish oils sourced from wild-caught, sustainably harvested fish. Importance of third-party testing to ensure the product is safe and effective. 6. Personal Stories and Case Studies Dr. Lewis shares inspiring stories of patients and athletes who have successfully used omega-3 therapy to recover from brain injuries. Examples include a football player who recovered from multiple concussions and a stroke survivor who regained cognitive function with high-dose omega-3 supplementation. 7. How to Use Omega-3s After Brain Injury Immediate supplementation following a brain injury can make a significant difference in recovery outcomes. The sooner omega-3s are introduced post-injury, the better. Dr. Lewis provides insight into the timing and administration of omega-3 supplements during the acute phase of brain injury treatment. Recommended Resources: Dr. Michael Lewis's Website: Brain Health Education and Research Institute: BrainCARE: Join us for this enlightening discussion on the powerful benefits of omega-3 fish oils for brain protection, recovery, and overall health.

Hormones, Brain Injuries, And Neuroinflammation With Dr. Mark Gordon Part 1
In this episode, we welcome Dr. Mark Gordon, a renowned expert in neuroendocrinology, to discuss the critical role hormones play in brain injuries and neuroinflammation. Dr. Gordon sheds light on how hormonal imbalances can exacerbate neuroinflammation, leading to prolonged recovery and chronic symptoms. We explore the importance of testing and optimizing hormones like growth hormone, IGF-1, IGF-BP3, estrogen, testosterone, DHEA, and pregnenolone to support brain health and recovery after traumatic and non traumatic brain injuries (TBI). Additionally, we delve into how environmental toxins and viruses can trigger or worsen neuroinflammation, impacting overall neurological health. Key Discussion Points: 1. Understanding the Role of Hormones in Brain Health - How hormones like growth hormone, IGF-1, and IGF-BP3 are involved in brain repair and neuroprotection. - The connection between estrogen, testosterone, DHEA, and pregnenolone in maintaining cognitive function and mood stability. - Why hormonal imbalances are common after brain injuries and how they contribute to prolonged neuroinflammation. 2. Growth Hormone and Brain Injuries - The role of growth hormone in promoting neurogenesis and repairing neural tissues. - How low levels of growth hormone can impede recovery from TBI and other brain injuries. - Dr. Gordon's approach to assessing and optimizing growth hormone levels for brain health. 3. IGF-1 and IGF-BP3: Key Players in Neuroprotection - How IGF-1 supports brain cell survival and reduces inflammation. - The significance of IGF-BP3 in regulating IGF-1 activity and its therapeutic potential in TBI. - Strategies for boosting IGF-1 levels naturally and through medical intervention. 4. The Impact of Sex Hormones on Brain Function - Estrogen's neuroprotective effects and its role in reducing neuroinflammation. - Testosterone's influence on brain health, cognition, and emotional regulation. - The benefits of DHEA and pregnenolone in supporting adrenal function and overall hormonal balance. 5. Environmental Toxins, Viruses, and Neuroinflammation - How exposure to environmental toxins can trigger or exacerbate neuroinflammation. - The role of chronic viral infections in contributing to ongoing brain inflammation and hormonal dysregulation. - Dr. Gordon's insights into detoxification strategies and immune support for reducing neuroinflammation. 6. Testing and Optimizing Hormones for Brain Health - The importance of comprehensive hormonal testing in individuals with TBI or chronic neuroinflammation. - Dr. Gordon's protocol for optimizing hormone levels to support brain recovery and cognitive function. - How to work with healthcare providers to develop a personalized hormone optimization plan.
