Chronic pain: The “invisible” disability
Sometime back in 2010, a good friend of mine from college who had since become a pediatrician posted a complaint on Facebook about “made up” health conditions. “Fibromyalgia, I’m looking at you,” she wrote. At this time, pain was more of an occasional visitor in my body rather than the permanent tenant it has since become. Still, I was offended on behalf of those patients with the disease.
Fast forward to today and my life is all about pacing. This is because everything I do — cook, sleep, work, walk — takes time. This gradual approach to every aspect of my life is not about enlightenment or mindfulness. It i...

Persistent fatigue syndrome linked to imbalanced microbiome
Scientists at the Center to get Infection and Immunity (CII) on Columbia University’s Mailman School of Public Health have discovered abnormal degrees of specific gut bacteria related to persistent fatigue syndrome/myalgic encephalomyelitis, or ME/CFS, in patients with and without concurrent irritable bowel syndrome, or IBS. Findings are published in the log Microbiome.

High rate of tumor shrinkage amongst pancreatic cancer patients: study
Adding cisplatin to the standard gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel drug treatment provided a very high rate of tumor shrinkage for individuals with advanced pancreatic cancer, according to the results of a pilot clinical demo conducted by the HonorHealth Research Start and the Translational Genomics Research Start (TGen).

What do you get for your money?
Shouldn’t the most expensive healthcare in the world also buy you the greatest health in the world?
If you pay $600-$1500 per month for a high-deductible health insurance policy for your family, does that mean that you and your family will enjoy better health? Because Americans spend nearly $10,000 per person per year on healthcare—-more than any other country on the planet, double the spending of the U.K., Canada, and Australia-—does this mean that Americans pay more and thereby enjoy better health? Less diabetes, less heart disease, less obesity, fewer cases of autoimmune disease, less arthritis, etc.?
Americans p...

Brand new immunotherapy combination shows promise for patients with advanced melanoma
Treatment with a combination of ipilimumab (Yervoy) and Coxsackievirus A21 (CVA21; Cavatak) led to durable responses in a number of patients with advanced melanoma, including some whose melanoma had progressed despite prior treatment with an immune gate inhibitor, and fewer than anticipated undesirable events, according to results from a stage Ib clinical trial presented here at the AACR Annual Meeting 2017, April 1-5.

My Incredible Results From The Whole30
I have long believed that self development isn’t just about changing the way we think.
Yes, that’s crucially important because if we think the same way, then for the most part nothing changes other than through blind luck.
It’s why I talk to clients about meditation and ask them about exercise and diet/nutrition.
Not that I would offer advice on the latter two subjects other than very, very generally, such as, ‘maybe it’s better to work out sometimes and not eat crap all the time?’
Sometime around 2008 I started getting interested in the Primal Solution and Paleo lifestyle.
In the subsequent time so muc...

Could Grains Cause Autoimmunity?
The prolamin proteins of grains— the gliadin of wheat, secalin of rye, hordein of barley, and zein of corn— initiate the small intestinal process that cause a perfect storm in our bodies. And they do so in more than one way. You could even argue that prolamin proteins are perfectly crafted to create autoimmunity.
Prolamin proteins of grains are masters at molecular mimicry. The prolamin proteins have been found to trigger immune responses to a number of human proteins, including the synapsin protein of the nervous system; the transglutaminase enzyme found in the liver, muscle, brain, and other organs; the endomysium of...
