    What are Nootropics?

    Occasionally, there are new and novel things introduced into the functional medicine and biohacker space that catch our attention. Lately, you might have heard a lot of people talking about the amazing health benefits of “nootropics,” but what are they? Coming from the name of the Greek word Nous (meaning “mind”), nootropics are medicines designed to improve cognitive function and protect the brain. Many of us could use a healthy dose of cognitive support to help us through our busy lives, but what is the truth about nootropics and where can we find them?   In today’s episode, we discuss the what, how, and why of nootropics. We explain what things are considered nootropics and how they work in the body. We also discuss what may be unexpected nootropic things you can do everyday that may not even be termed a nootropic.

  7. Mast Cell Activation Syndrome & Histamine [Rebroadcast]

    Mast Cell Activation Syndrome & Histamine [Rebroadcast]

    Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) has become a hot topic in functional medicine. Mast cells are an integral part of the body’s immune system. They can be found in areas of exposure such as mucosal membranes, the lining of the GI tract, skin, and airways. Mast cells are responsible for storing important chemical mediators like histamine and others which help to instigate allergic responses. Mast cell disorders arise when there are too many mast cells, or they become hyperreactive. That being said, these conditions are often misunderstood, and diagnoses are sometimes misused.  In today’s episode, we focus on the role of mast cells and histamine in the immune response. We discuss the different mast cell activation disorders, how to diagnose them, and what you can do about it.   Today on The Lab Report:   3:05 Mast Cell Activation Diseases 5:15 What is a mast cell? Why do we care? 7:05 Symptoms of histamine release 8:40 Histamine intolerance vs. MCAS 11:11 Foods: High Histamine or Low Histamine? 14:25 Non-food related histamine associations 15:30 Diagnosing and treating MCAS  18:00 Question of the Day What Genova profiles can help parse out histamine intolerance v.

    Desulfovibrio - Friend or Foe?

    The gut microbiome harbors trillions of commensal organisms which play a central role in our health. This community is sometimes referred to as our hidden metabolic organ due to its immense impact. Our diet and lifestyle play an important role in feeding the microbiome and keeping the colonies in balance. Should we be concerned if any one bacterial colony overgrows? Today we discuss the commensal bacteria Desulfovibrio. Since this genus of bacteria can reduce sulfate and make hydrogen sulfide gas, overgrowth can have clinical implications. Listen in for more information on why you should care and what you can do about it. Today on The Lab Report: 2:45 Why Desulfovibrio?
