This episode is sponsored by PearsonRavitz– an agency dedicated to supporting physicians on their journey to getting the right insurance. Our next guest is a Connecticut psychologist and PTSD survivor, Dr. David Bonanno, who has developed a groundbreaking therapy for trauma psychology that challenges conventional methods used in allopathic medicine. This episode revolves around the potential impact of redefining and destigmatizing conditions like "being adrenalized" compared to traditional PTSD. The main question is how this change might influence individuals in seeking help and treatment for their symptoms. This suggests that a shift in terminology and perception could encourage more people to acknowledge their symptoms and seek assistance without the fear of judgment or reluctance commonly associated with the term PTSD.

Bio: Dr. Bonanno is the Freshest, Boldest Voice in Trauma Psychology today. And he has developed a dynamite therapy that is better than all the rest. Almost everyone who promises a way to get past your past has a method that involves time, money, work, and pain and everything else thrown against the wall as a “cure” for life’s hardships. PTSD has been the biggest topic in Psychology for 10+ years now. Because that’s what therapists still cannot heal. David Bonanno is a Connecticut psychologist and PTSD survivor who has been helping people since 1993. He is the first person in America to begin to qualify patients for Medical Marijuana by evaluating them for PTSD. His company, Bonanno Mental Healthcare, has assisted over 16,000 needy people in gaining access to medicine that is much better than pharmaceuticals. Dr. Bonanno is the inventor of De-Adrenalizing, a revolutionary and rapidly-growing therapy that heals sufferers of all psychological traumas, and the author of Your Brain is a Robocat: How to Finally Understand Your Trauma Response. This book is easy to read but will transform the reader’s conceptualization of how the human brain functions before and after trauma. When people are finally able to understand themselves, they no longer have to blame and hate themselves. Our Advice! Everything in this podcast is for educational purposes only.

This episode is sponsored by PearsonRavitz– a friend and advocate for physicians with their insurance needs. This episode is an interview conducted by Parker Condit, CEO and Co-Founder of Moto Bio – a platform helping its members live healthy lives and make smarter decisions for themselves. We get to talk about being a couple who are both family practice physicians and discuss our transition from primary care to urgent care and the frustrations we experienced in the healthcare system. We talk about the increased focus on box ticking and metrics in the EMR, which led to a decline in patient care, including the lack of understanding from insurance companies and the implementation of laws by non-doctors. Additionally, we touch on the benefits of direct primary care and the importance of preventative care. Looking for something specific? Here you go! 00:02:02 Transition from primary care to urgent care due to frustrations with healthcare system. 00:08:19 Healthcare system is flawed. 00:10:29 Metrics and bureaucracy hinder patient care. 00:16:56 Lack of physician involvement in healthcare decisions. 00:21:19 Lifestyle factors are crucial for health. 00:25:01 Fear and cultural factors hinder innovation in medicine. 00:29:31 Influence of environment on lifestyle. 00:35:28 Find like-minded individuals, speak up. 00:40:44 Direct primary care is a cost-efficient, subscription-based model that offers unlimited access to physicians and higher quality care. 00:45:32 Direct primary care reduces patient load. 00:48:29 Interoperability and EMR challenges. 00:57:17 Leverage telehealth for coordination. 00:58:11 Leveraging knowledge through patient networking. 01:05:07 Healthcare is evolving, embrace change. 01:06:31 Leverage resources for better health. About Parker Condit: Parker Condit is CEO and co-founder of Modo Bio and is obsessed with increasing access to holistic, patient-centered healthcare. And that’s putting it lightly. His interest in health and wellness began in early adulthood when he began a career in personal training. During this time, he successfully helped professional athletes optimize their performance, and non-professionals improve their overall physical health. In conversation with his clients, he realized how siloed traditional medical practitioners were from providers in the mental health, fitness, and integrative medicine spaces; spaces that can help physicians prevent disease in their patients, not just treat it. He, along with his business partner Jack, decided to find a solution to this problem and Modo Bio was born. Since mid-2022, Parker has led Modo Bio’s transformation from a brick-and-mortar integrative health clinic into the dynamic remote patient monitoring digital platform it is today. He is responsible for overseeing all areas of Modo Bio’s business operations in addition to fundraising and building meaningful partnerships with physicians, health systems, and stakeholders. Parker currently lives in Arizona where he spends his free time running and spending time with his dog Max, his best friend and the unofficial mascot of Modo Bio. Connect with him here. Our Advice!

She expertly and simply explains to her patients and our listeners here, the mechanism by which Insulin is causing more inflammation and damage, and how to She admits she is a unicorn in her field but is hopeful the paradigm will soon shift.

Sponsored by: New Leaf Hyperbaric and Wellness Oxygen Therapy In this reaired episode, Tim and May delve into the alarming history of one of the greatest blunders in the realm of medicine: the widespread overprescribing of opioids. The catastrophic journey began with a seemingly innocuous five-sentence letter published in the New England Journal of Medicine back in 1980. Little did anyone know that this brief letter would be cited a staggering 608 times in medical literature, wrongly advocating for the safety of opiate prescription. The hosts meticulously trace the evolution of opioids, exploring both their historical context and the gradual normalization of their medical use. A critical turning point was the misinterpretation of data, which triggered a cascade of detrimental consequences. The medical establishment, pharmaceutical companies, and regulatory bodies fell victim to groupthink, unknowingly perpetuating a series of major falsehoods: The Illusion of Progress: The erroneous belief that modern times could manage opioid usage more effectively than a century ago. The Medicalization Fallacy: The false sense of security created by medicalizing opioid usage, leading to the misconception that their use was inherently safe. The Solution Misconception: The assumption that finding a medical solution was imperative for addressing both acute and chronic pain, thus justifying widespread opioid prescription. As Tim and May navigate this sobering narrative, they share a lighter side as well, chuckling at past and recent advertisements that promoted these harmful substances. From the days of "mother's little helper" cough syrup to the more recent tagline "One to start with and one to stay with" for OxyContin, the absurdity of these marketing campaigns is evident. The duo also highlight the ironic concept of "pain as the fifth vital sign," revealing how the opiate journey unfolded and contributed to this unsettling notion. Through their engaging discussion, Tim and May paint a vivid picture of how a series of miscalculations, misinformation, and misguided beliefs led to the opioid crisis, resulting in the loss of hundreds of thousands of lives. This reaired episode serves as a reminder of the imperative role critical thinking and a thorough understanding of historical context play in shaping medical practices and policies. Our Advice!
