ICYMI: Glyphosate: Putting Our Soils, Waterways, Wildlife and Ourselves At Risk, Part 1
IN CASE YOU MISSED IT. Dr. Stephanie Seneff brings her insights on precision molecular medicine to bear in this detailed indictment of Glyphosate, aka Roundup: "Toxic Legacy: How the Weedkiller Glyphosate Is Destroying Our Health and the Environment." Glyphosate is spawning massive class-action lawsuits by exposed individuals who contracted non-Hodgkins lymphoma, but MIT researcher Stephanie Seneff Ph.D. highlights pervasive additional risks—to our soils, our waterways, to wildlife, and to humans. Yet it’s still authorized for use in the US, despite bans in many countries and localities. She’s been hailed as the Rachel Carson (author of Silent Spring) of our era. Avoiding use on our lawns and gardens and sourcing non-GMO foods reduces exposure, but it’s now pervasive in the environment. Dr. Seneff points out how it attacks multiple organ systems, affecting energy production, the brain, the liver, and the digestive tract, even compromising fertility. Despite industry claims to the contrary, it doesn’t break down quickly, and can persist in the environment and in our bodies. Click HERE for part 2.

ENCORE: Ozone Therapy, Part 1
June 30, 2021
Ozone therapy is considered one of the more exotic modalities of Integrative Medicine, but today’s guest, Dr. Isadora Guggenheim (www.secondnaturecare.com) brings scientific rigor to its application to a variety of conditions. Guggenheim is a naturopathic physician (ND), as well as an RN and nutritionist. What’s the history of ozone therapy? How does it work? How can we reconcile its healing properties with concerns about ozone as a cause of respiratory injury? Doesn’t it generate free radicals when introduced into the body? Guggenheim explains the seeming paradox by marshaling evidence that medical ozone revs the body’s antioxidant defenses; ozone is a potent disinfectant, combatting viruses, bacteria and fungi alike. It also selectively targets cancer cells while sparing healthy cells. Athletes use ozone to boost performance; many patients attest to ozone’s energizing and mood-enhancing effects. What are the various ways ozone can be administered? What conditions respond to ozone? Does research support its safety and effectiveness? On a separate note, Guggenheim describes laser vaginal rejuvenation—The Mona Lisa Touch procedure—as an alternative to hormones for vaginal dryness and painful intercourse. Click HERE for part 2.

ENCORE: A Revolution in the Diagnosis and Treatment of GI Disorders, Part 1
June 29, 2021
SIBO—small intestine bacterial overgrowth—is a concept that has revolutionized our diagnosis and treatment of common GI disorders, especially IBS (irritable bowel syndrome). Gary Stapleton, founder and director of Aerodiagnostic Labs, is a leading authority on the performance and interpretation of testing for SIBO. What is SIBO? Who might suspect they have it? SIBO manifestations go way beyond just gastrointestinal symptoms like diarrhea, cramps, bloating and constipation; SIBO often is an underlying cause of autoimmune disorders and even brain fog, depression, anxiety and fatigue. Why test? What’s the principal behind breath testing? How does detection of various gases guide therapeutic decisions and increase treatment success? Are there alternatives to drugs for treatment of SIBO? What can go wrong with breath testing? Improper patient prepping, imprecise collection, poorly calibrated testing machinery, and inexperienced interpretation can confuse the diagnosis. Stapleton outlines the extraordinary steps Aerodiagnostics takes to assure quality control. Breath testing can also be used to pinpoint diagnoses of lactose, fructose or sucrose intolerance.
