Root-cause medicine, comprehensive testing, and personalized treatment protocols
At a Glance Anti-inflammatory diets (especially the Mediterranean diet) show the strongest evidence for reducing fibromyalgia symptoms. Gluten and dairy elimination may help a significant subset of fibromyalgia patients, particularly those with overlapping gut issues. Key supplements like magnesium, vitamin D, and CoQ10 have research backing for pain and fatigue reduction. Processed foods, sugar, and…
Estrogen decline changes how your body handles food, stores fat, and builds bone. Here is what the research says about the best dietary strategies for menopause, from phytoestrogens and anti-inflammatory eating to foods that make hot flashes worse.
At a Glance Step 1 is always finding the cause – treating brain fog without identifying the root issue is like mopping the floor while the faucet is still running. Common treatable causes include thyroid dysfunction, sleep apnea, nutrient deficiencies (B12, iron, D), gut issues, and blood sugar dysregulation. Foundational fixes – sleep, exercise, and…
The generic “take fish oil” advice misses the point. EPA and DHA do different things, dose matters enormously, and most people aren’t taking nearly enough to get clinical results.
Biofeedback therapy uses real-time monitoring of physiological processes to teach you voluntary control over functions like heart rate, muscle tension, and brain waves. This guide covers types, evidence, conditions treated, and how it compares to neurofeedback.
Low dose naltrexone (LDN) at 1.5-4.5mg is used off-label for autoimmune conditions, chronic pain, and neuroinflammation. This evidence-based guide covers how LDN works, conditions it treats, dosing protocols, side effects, and how to get a prescription.
At a Glance Multiple clinical trials (including from Stanford University) show LDN can reduce fibromyalgia symptoms by approximately 30 percent. LDN works through a different mechanism than standard fibromyalgia drugs, it modulates glial cell activation and reduces neuroinflammation. Typical dosing starts at 0.5 mg and titrates up to 4.5 mg at bedtime over several weeks….
At a Glance Emerging clinical evidence suggests LDN can reduce thyroid antibodies (TPO and TgAb) in Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. LDN works through immune modulation, not immunosuppression, it rebalances the immune response rather than shutting it down. Typical dosing follows the standard LDN protocol: start at 0.5 mg, titrate to 4.5 mg at bedtime. Antibody changes typically…
