  • ENCORE: The Epidemic You Never Heard Of: Alpha-Gal Syndrome, Part 1

    07/03/2024 Duración: 24min

    Sharon Forsyth is a patient advocate for recognition of Alpha-gal Syndrome. It’s a recently discovered condition (2009) which now has been confirmed to be the cause of symptoms in tens of thousands of individuals—who may represent the tip of the iceberg of a far more pervasive problem. Essentially, it’s a meat allergy, transmitted by tick bites, and sufferers experience rashes, GI complaints, even life-threatening anaphylactic reactions when they eat beef, pork, or lamb. But many non-meat products are tainted with alpha-gal, including dairy products, gel caps, and carageenan. Many processed foods contain traces of meat residue, which can trigger symptoms in sufferers; so, too, do personal care products, medications and supplements. Sharon describes her challenging quest to obtain a diagnosis—many health professionals are woefully ignorant of this condition.

  • Where Diabetes Treatment Has Gone Wrong and How to Fix It, Part 1

    05/03/2024 Duración: 36min

    As far back as the sixth century B.C., physicians have looked to treat diabetes through diet. But delving into the history of diabetes, research shows at times conflicting and contradictory medical advice. Gary Taubes, author of "RETHINKING DIABETES: What Science Reveals About Diet, Insulin, and Successful Treatments," explores the history of diabetes research to look towards more effective treatment in the future. Taubes re-examines this research alongside the most recent studies to provide new insight that shows the current standard treatment is not enough. He argues for doctors to look beyond prescribing drugs to incorporate dietary and lifestyle changes as an essential part of treatment. He challenges conventional medical thinking to reveal the limits of medical science for diabetes treatment. His proposed changes could revolutionize how people live with diabetes and help the millions of Americans struggling for years to come.
