	15 Apr 2020	Patricia Rush, M.D., MBA - The Root of Chronic Disease & a New Hope for Health Disparity	01:12:50
In the 1990s, there were only two female hospital CEOs in the United States - one of them is our guest today! Her name is Patricia Rush, MD, MBA. In this episode, Dr. Rush takes us through the course of her 40 years as an internal medicine doctor. She has a fundamental conversation of hope – an opportunity to get to the root causes of physical & emotional suffering & completely revolutionizing the way that we look at chronic disease & health disparities. She discusses her career paths & what led her to create a different kind of primary care practice; The ASTONISHING relationship she found between patient experience & health; And lastly - new scientific findings – which can help us all create a new and better approach when it comes to getting to the root of chronic disease. She is the co-founder of The Center for Collaborative Study of Trauma, Health Equity, and Neurobiology (THEN). THEN was formed by 4 women health clinician-scholars in 2017 with the goal of designing and sharing a curriculum for medical science about childhood adversity, neurodevelopment, lifelong health and health equity. THEN provides lectures and workshops locally, nationally, and via video-conference. Through their website (www.thencenter.org), they hope to provide a series of short instructive videos, supported by an extensive Bibliography and Glossary: THEN CURRICULAR MODULES include: • Core principles of System Science • Regulation and Dysregulation • Notice re Traumatic Content & Importance for Clinicians of Self Care • Life Course • Neurodevelopment • Trauma, Adversity, and Chronic Inflammation • Health Equity and the Trauma of Discrimination • Clinician Skills in Interviewing Patients and Building the Clinician-Patient Partnership • Therapeutic Principles in Developing a Regulatory Plan for Patients • Re-examination of typical models of key diseases One of the most important medical discoveries of the past few decades was recently published in the scientific journal, Nature Medicine in December, 2019. This was a large-scale meta-analysis of data from more than 160,000 people across 54 long-term prospective studies & it PROVED that chronic inflammatory diseases have been recognized as the most significant cause of death in the world today. With more than 50% of all deaths being attributable to inflammation-related diseases, such as ischemic heart disease, stroke, cancer, diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), auto-immune & neurodegenerative conditions. Evidence is emerging that the risk of developing chronic inflammation can be traced back to early development, and its effects are now known to persist throughout the life span to affect adulthood health - linking early childhood experience & chronic illness! This was one of Dr. Rush's greatest epiphanies - long before this recent article!

	13 Jul 2020	If Exercise Were a Pill	00:08:48
If Exercise were a pharmaceutical pill, it would create a multi-trillion dollar conglomerate & every doctor in the world would be prescribing it. It would create better insulin sensitivity, reduce stress, improve brain health, reduce & even reversing chronic disease, enhance detoxification, slow the aging process & improve sexual function, ALL in one!!! It has even been demonstrated that one to two hours of exercise a week in adults can prevent depression. Here's a paper published in the American Journal of psychiatry in 2017 elaborated on an 11 year study on almost 34,000 people that proved this: (https://ajp.psychiatryonline.org/doi/full/10.1176/appi.ajp.2017.16111223) In this episode, we talk about some of the latest & greatest findings in the field of exercise science. I mention a study in this episode that absolutely blew away the world. It was a 2018 large-scale study of more than 100,000 patients by the Harvard School of Public Health. It found that those who chose to eat a healthy diet rich in vegetables, exercise at least 30 minutes a day, maintain a healthy body weight, limit their alcohol use, & chose not to smoke during adulthood, had an 82% lower risk of dying from cardiovascular disease, a 65% lower chance of dying from cancer, and a 74% lower risk of dying from all causes during follow-up. Here's the link to this study: (https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/news/press-releases/five-healthy-lifestyle-habits/). Exercise has also been shown to improve the heart's ejection fraction: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6445773/ This was a quick 10 minute episode that was inspired by my attending physician on this month's hospital service, thank you Dr. Eukesh Ranjit.

In this month's episode, we are bringing you an internationally recognized leader in bridging science & spirit, Bruce Lipton, Ph.D. Bruce is one of the founding father's of stem cell biology & human genetic engineering. He began doing research on stem cells more than 50 years ago, back when only a handful of scientists even knew what they were! His research at Stanford University’s School of Medicine revealed that the environment we put our cells into can control our cell's behavior, physiology & influence them to turn certain genes on & off! This is what led Dr. Lipton to discover that our mind: is the government of all 50 trillion cells in our body - a finding that went on to contribute & help create one of today's most important fields of study, the science of epigenetics. Dr. Lipton's research & teachings have been INSTRUMENTAL to my philosophies as a family medicine physician. That's why today, we dissect his revolutionary work & will be sharing practical tips on how to reprogram the subconscious mind; maximize your full cellular & genetic potential; & how you can train your mind to heal from PTSD & a traumatic childhood.

	04 Jan 2021	Nicole LePera, Ph.D. - The Holistic Psychologist: Recognize your Patterns, Heal from your Past & Create Yourself	01:17:20
Pre-order Nicole's brand new book, 'Do The Work': https://www.amazon.com/How-Do-Work-Recognize-Patterns/dp/006301209X In our first episode of 2021, we’re joined by Nicole LePera Ph.D. (@the.holistic.psychologist). Nicole is a Cornell University trained clinical psychologist who is arguably the most innovative educator of our time when it comes to teaching us more about ourselves & mental health. As a clinical psychologist, Nicole often found herself frustrated by the limitations of traditional psychotherapy. Wanting more for her patients—and for herself—she began a journey to develop a united philosophy of mental, physical & spiritual wellness that equips people with the interdisciplinary tools necessary to heal themselves. After experiencing the life-changing results herself, she began to share what she’d learned with others—and soon “The Holistic Psychologist” was born. Now, Dr. LePera is ready to share her much-requested protocol with the world. In today's episode, Nicole offers both a manifesto for SelfHealing as well as an essential guide to creating a more vibrant, authentic, and joyful life. Drawing on the latest research from a diversity of scientific fields and healing modalities, Dr. LePera helps us recognize how adverse experiences and trauma in childhood live with us, resulting in whole body dysfunction—activating harmful stress responses that keep us stuck engaging in patterns of codependency, emotional immaturity, and trauma bonds. Unless addressed, these self-sabotaging behaviors can quickly become cyclical, leaving people feeling unhappy, unfulfilled, and unwell. This episode offers listeners the support and tools that will allow them to break free from destructive behaviors to reclaim and recreate their lives. Nothing short of a paradigm shift, this is a celebration of empowerment that will forever change the way we approach mental wellness and self-care. If you listened to our season 1 episodes with Dr. Bruce Lipton, Dr. Bruce Perry, Dr. Bessel Van Der Kolk & Dr. Shefali, you will realize that Nicole’s work is from their school of thought & offers some of the most innovative approaches to understanding & healing from our traumas.

In this months episode, we are bringing you the American Medical Association's Chief Representative of Urologists, Dr. Aaron Spitz.

I discovered his book: 'The Penis Book: A Doctor's Complete Guide to the Penis-From Size to Function and Everything in Between' from James Cameron's Netflix documentary: The Game Changers (produced by Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jackie Chan). In the documentary, Dr. Spitz performed a small sleep study that tested the strength of erections in athletes based on what diets they were eating. The study showed that a single plant-based meal allowed the athlete's erections to last three times as long and were nearly 10% stronger (during their sleep). It was after watching THIS I KNEW we had to have this man on our show!!! Today, he hits his 5 step plan to Maximizing Penis Health which includes the following: Diet, exercise, sleep, limiting/excluding pornography & avoiding drugs & alcohol. He goes in depth on each of these topics & gives us some insight on all the developments that have occurred since Game Changers was released!

According to the CDC's Adverse Childhood Experience Study (ACE study): there is a direct link between childhood trauma & adult onset of chronic disease as well as depression, suicide, being violent, & a victim of violence & drug abuse. https://www.cdc.gov/violenceprevention/childabuseandneglect/acestudy/about.html Adverse Childhood Experiences are defined as: Kids who grew up in environments that included psychological, physical, or sexual abuse &/or domestic violence, neglect, living with a substance abuser, someone who is mentally ill, suicidal, or ever sent to prison. Persons who have experienced four or more categories of childhood exposure, compared to those who had experienced none, had 4 to 12-fold increased health risks for alcoholism, drug abuse, depression, & suicide attempt; a 2- to 4-fold increase in smoking, poor self-rated health, 50+ sexual intercourse partners, and sexually transmitted disease; and a 1.4- to 1.6-fold increase in physical inactivity and severe obesity. Individuals with greater than 6 ACEs die on average 20 years earlier than those who don't! This body of research brought me to our guest today: Dr. Bessel Van Der Kolk. He is one of the world’s foremost experts on trauma & he’s spent over 3 decades working with survivors. Dr. Bessel is a member of the first neuro-imaging team to investigate how trauma changes brain processes, and he did the first research linking Bipolar Disorder and deliberate self-injury to trauma and neglect in early childhood. He did the first studies on the effects of SSRIs on PTSD; & also some of the first studies on the benefits of Yoga & EMDR. His NYT best selling book - The Body Keeps Score - Brain Mind & Body in the Healing of Trauma uses recent scientific advances to show how trauma literally reshapes both the body & brain & it completely Transformed my understanding of human physiology!

According to the National Library of Medicine, it is now scientifically proven that the environment we grow up in has a direct impact on our brain development. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3232061/ Research from animal and human models suggest that early life stress (such as abuse, witnessing domestic violence, and serious household dysfunction) that occurs while mom is pregnant, or after birth, during a baby's first days, weeks and months of life, may be particularly influential for neuro-developmental or brain-related outcomes. This is because the stress occurs at a time when brain systems are rapidly organizing. For example, a baby’s brain is making 20,000 brand new neurons per second! Compare that to the average adult, who will makes about 400 neurons a day. During last months episode with Dr. Bessel van der Kolk, we connected the CDC’s Adverse Child Experience’s (ACES) study to chronic disease & mental health. The thing that alarmed me most as a physician was that individual’s who have 6 or more ACEs die on average: 20 years earlier than those who grow up in stable environments! Well we cannot complete that conversation without looking at how the brain forms during our experiences in childhood (neuro-development). That’s why today, we’re bringing you the WORLD’s leading expert on childhood trauma! This is the man that Oprah goes to when she wants to learn about childhood trauma!! Dr. Bruce Perry is a psychiatrist & has a PHD in neuroscience. In this episode, Dr. Perry explains what happens inside the brain’s of children exposed to extreme stress & shares their lessons of courage, humanity & hope.

	14 Oct 2019	Cedric Rutland, M.D. - The Vaping Epidemic, Cannabis, Tobacco, Cancer, Lung Health, & Pulmonology	01:02:32
According to the CDC, as of October 8, 2019, 1,299 confirmed & probable lung injury cases associated with use of e-cigarette, or vaping, products were reported by 49 out of 50 states. We now have data on 1,043 patients of these patients including age and sex: 70% of patients are male. 80% of patients are under 35 years old. 15% are under 18 years old! 26 deaths have been confirmed in 21 states: Alabama, California (3), Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia (2), Illinois, Indiana, Kansas (2), Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, New Jersey, New York, Oregon (2), Pennsylvania, Texas, and Virginia. Here is the link to these stats: https://www.cdc.gov/media/releases/2019/s-1010-vaping-injury-update.html This is WHY we are bringing you the American Lung Association's spokesman: Cedric Jamie Rutland, M.D. Dr. Rutland is a board certified Pulmonologist & a certified badass!! He is passionate about lung health & had the honor of going in depth on the topics of vaping, cannabis, tobacco, cancer, death, lung health & his journey to becoming a pulmonologist. The CDC does mention on their website that E-cigarettes have the potential to benefit adult cigarette smokers who are not pregnant if used as a complete substitute for regular cigarettes & other smoked tobacco products (https://www.cdc.gov/tobacco/basic_information/e-cigarettes/pdfs/Electronic-Cigarettes-Infographic-508.pdf). Past research has shown, though not harmless, vaping may have fewer toxins than cigarettes. The intention with this podcast is not to vilify vaping, but rather, to examine what has changed & why this epidemic is happening right before our eyes.

Here are the links to Dr. Aujla's best-selling book, Eat to Beat Illness: U.S. Edition: https://thedoctorskitchen.com/eat-to-beat-illness-us-edition U.K. Edition: https://thedoctorskitchen.com/eat-to-beat-illness According to the National Library of medicine, it is scientifically proven that the foods we choose to eat each day can alter the expression and control of our genes. This literally means that you are what you eat! (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2373379/) In this months episode, we're bringing you Dr. Rupy Aujla, International Best Selling Author & the founder of The Doctor's Kitchen! He's an emergency medicine doctor & the clinical adviser to the Royal College of general practitioners in the UK. Dr. Rupy also founded the non-profit organization ‘Culinary Medicine’, which aims to teach doctors & medical students the foundations of nutrition as well as teaching them how to cook (this is the future fam!). Ive been following Dr. Rupy Aujla on his instagram, @doctors_kitchen for awhile now & I began noticing that they are truly revolutionizing the way doctors are approaching medicine. We had the honor of dissecting his newest book, Eat to Beat Illness & I'm happy to say it’s become my go-to cookbook. This episode is jam packed with SO many practical tips that highlight how taking control of what you put on your plate can give you power over your health!!! Dr. Aujla opens up about being diagnosed with a heart condition (atrial fibrillation) when he was a junior doctor. To his surprise, by changing his lifestyle: via increasing intake of vegetables & fruits, nuts & seeds; meditating regularly; exercising; and incorporating better sleep hygiene, he was able to reverse the condition! A piece from Dr Rupy’s book: ‘On discussing my experiences with cardiologists, general physicians and lifestyle medicine practitioners it was hard to retrospectively pinpoint exactly what had happened to make the AF episodes stop. My increased vegetable intake likely replaced electrolytes and vitamins in my cells that were lacking. Eating cruciferous vegetables on a daily basis flooded my body with plant chemicals that we now understand have profound effects on DNA. I continued to drink alcohol on occasion, but I removed sugary drinks completely. My added dietary fibre is likely to have improved the functioning of my gut bacteria, which can lower inflammation via a variety of chemical pathways. I potentially attenuated the stress in my life triggered by poor sleep and a demanding job by increasing essential fatty acids in my food and practising mindfulness.’ If you enjoy the episode, please subscribe to our podcast & rate it 5 stars on iTunes: MEDspiration Podcast on iTunes Tag @medspiration in your stories on IG & please share with us your favorite parts of this podcast, I’ll be sure to feature you & write back!!!

In today's special Code Triage episode, we discuss the first official case of Coronavirus-2019 that was diagnosed in the United States. On January 19, 2020, a 35-year-old man presented to an urgent care clinic in Snohomish County, Washington, with a 4-day history of cough and subjective fever. On checking into the clinic, the patient put on a mask in the waiting room. After waiting approximately 20 minutes, he was taken into an examination room and underwent evaluation by a provider. He disclosed that he had returned to Washington State on January 15 after traveling to visit family in Wuhan, China. We discuss his entire hospital course, the labs & the management in detail. This case was published in the New England Journal of Medicine: (https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2001191).

	14 Mar 2019	Humble The Poet - Creating a Healthier Relationship with Failure	01:13:33
Pre Order Humble's new book here: https://www.humblethepoet.com/unlearn According to the National Library of Medicine, it is scientifically proven that when we choose to BELIEVE in our ability to overcome obstacles & to create positive change for ourselves & the world around us - we manifest a new tool in our mind that enhances our problem solving practices. (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3906048/). You can think of it just like working out: muscle mass is built repeatedly by lifting the things that are designed to weigh us down. Kobe Bryant said it best: what separates the greats from the ALL time greats is their ability to self-assess, diagnose weaknesses, & turn those flaws into strengths. With the proper mindset: The power of our perception can allow us to become a student of our difficult times & to help find value & strength in the things that may be weighing us down. Putting this into practice doesn’t just help you uplift your spirit, it’s also been shown under structural MRIs to change the gray matter composition in the parts of the brain that have to do with responding to & coping with stress. This is part of the reason why neuroscientists in 2019 are so interested in developing a better understanding of the nature & importance of experiencing mental conflicts when it comes to developing a healthier relationship with failure. Humble the Poet just published his book, 'UNLEARN - 101 Simple Truths for a Better Life.' It will be dropping next month on April 9th (04/09/2019). He is an MC/Spoken word artist with an aura that embodies diversity and resiliency. With tattoos, a beard, head wrap or turban and a silly smile, Humble commands attention. He stimulates audiences with ideas that challenge conventional wisdom and go against the grain. He’s a best selling author ; was featured in Apple's first Canadian ad for their #ShotOnIphone campaign & a long time collaborator with Lilly Singh. In this episode we have an open dialogue about Mental Health ; Bullying ; Nature & Nurture ; How Humble Overcomes Self Doubt ; His Journey Through Music & Art ; Psychedelics ; & The Greatest Life Lessons he’s acquired through his Journey.

	01 Jan 2019	Eben Alexander, M.D. - Neurosurgery, Psychedelics, God, Ego, Consciousness, Meditation, & Life After Death	01:05:23
In this episode, we had the pleasure of sitting down with Harvard trained neurosurgeon, Dr. Eben Alexander. He’s performed over 4,000 neurosurgical procedures in his career, has been #1 on the New York Times Bestseller list, & has been a guest on The Dr. Oz Show, Super Soul Sunday with Oprah Winfrey, ABC-TV’s 20-20 and Good Morning America, FOX-TV’s FOX & Friends, & his story has been featured on the Discovery Channel and the Biography Channel. Through his career, Dr. Alexander has dealt with hundreds of patients who have suffered from severe changes in consciousness. Many of them being rendered comatose by trauma, brain tumors, ruptured aneurysms, infections, or stroke. After treating these patients & operating on them, he thought he had an advanced understanding on how the brain generated consciousness, mind & spirit. That was until he suffered from a rare bacterial meningitis that put him into coma. During that time, he spent a week on a ventilator, where a machine was breathing for him. Although though his brain was shut off, he said he experienced an expansion of consciousness that extended beyond his body & brain, which proved to him that the presence of GOD is REAL! This near-death experience (OR NDE for short), changed his entire perspective on the fundamental nature of reality. His experience revealed that we are conscious in spite of our brain – that, in fact, consciousness is at the root of ALL existence. After hearing his story, I knew I HAD to get him on the MEDspirastion Podcast! That's why today, we delve deeper into his story & explore the concepts of Consciousness, Psychedelics, Spirituality, Life After Death, Meditation, Ego, God, & the latest in Neuroscience & Quantum Mechanics! He’s written some of the most thought provoking books I have ever came across - which include: Proof of Heaven (which spent 38 weeks at #1 on the NYT best selling list; The Map of Heaven; & his newest & latest work: Living in a Mindful Universe which was co-authored with Karen Newell!

	27 May 2019	Wim Hof (The Ice-Man): Revolutionizing Medicine through Meditation; Using the Mind to Control the Immune System & Nervous System; Mental Health; Epi-genetics; & the Science of the Wim Hof Method	01:06:55

Use the promo code Medspiration for 20% off any Premium subscription! According to the Proceedings of the National Academy for Sciences (PNAS) of the United States: It has long been presumed that it was NOT possible to voluntarily influence the Autonomic Nervous System & Innate Immune System. In 2014, a peer reviewed study that was published after Wim Hof demonstrated that through practicing the Wim Hof Method (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nzCaZQqAs9I&t=1s), a self developed technique that involves a combination of breathing, cold exposure & meditation, the sympathetic nervous system & immune system CAN indeed be voluntarily influenced. Here is the link to this study:(https://www.pnas.org/content/111/20/7379). In today's episode, we're sitting down with the Ice-Man himself! Wim owns 26 official Guinness World Records, all of which are beyond comprehension to most who hear them! In 2007 he climbed 22,000ft up Mount Everest in only shorts & shoes. In 2009 he ran a full marathon in the Arctic circle in temperatures close to -20°C, wearing only a pair of shorts and having not trained at all. In 2011, Wim broke his own cold-endurance record, remaining submerged neck-deep in an ice bath for 112 minutes. The same year he completed another marathon without training, this time in the Namibian desert in temperatures of up to 40°C, without drinking a drop of water! I made sure to study EVERY peer-reviewed study ever published on Wim before this interview (links to these studies are below). Wim & I discussed how he is revolutionizing medicine & medical science through meditation; How it is possible to use the mind to control the immune system & nervous system; mental health; epi-genetics; & the Science of the Wim Hof Method. P RESEARCH: 2018 Article: “Brain over body”–A study on the willful regulation of autonomic function during cold exposure Authors: O. Muzik, K. Reilly, V. Diwadkar - Wayne State Univeristy School of Medicine Summary: In this paper, a brain imaging study was conducted to measure the relative contributions of the brain and the periphery that endow the Iceman to withstand the cold using his Wim Hof Method techniques. The results provide compelling evidence for the primacy of the brain (CNS) rather than the body (peripheral mechanisms) in mediating the Iceman's responses to cold exposure. They also suggest the compelling possibility that the WHM might allow practitioners to develop higher level of control over key components of the autonomous system, with implications for lifestyle interventions that might ameliorate multiple clinical syndromes. 2015 Article: The Role of Outcome Expectancies for a Training Program Consisting of Meditation, Breathing Exercises, and Cold Exposure on the Response to Endotoxin Administration: a Proof-of-Principle Study Authors: H. van Middendorp, M. Kox, P. Pickkers, A.W.M. Evers - Radboud University Medical Centre Summary: This paper adds to a previous study, published in 2014, on the ability to voluntarily influence the physiological stress response in healthy men to experimentally induced inflammation, after WHM training. It is a proof-of-principle study that investigated how one’s expectancies might play a role in treatment outcome. Indications were found that generalized outcome expectancy optimism is a potential determinant of the autonomic and immune response to induced inflammation after training. 2014 Article: Voluntary Activation of The Sympathetic Nervous System and Attenuation of the Innate Immune Response In Humans Authors: M. Kox, P. Pickkers et al. - Radboud University Medical Center (published in PNAS) Summary: In this paper, the effects of the Wim Hof Method on the autonomic nervous system and innate immune response are evaluated. A group of twelve people was trained with the Wim Hof Method before undergoing an experiment to induce inflammation, normally resulting in flu-like symptoms. Compared to a control group who were not trained in the Wim Hof Method, the trained participants showed fewer flu-like symptoms, lower levels of proinflammatory mediators, and increased plasma epinephrine levels. In conclusion, the trained group was able to voluntarily activate their sympathetic nervous system. Article: Controlled Hyperventilation After Training May Accelerate Altitude Acclimatization Authors: G. Buijze, M.T. Hopman Summary: This report deals with the effects of the Wim Hof Method on acute mountain sickness (AMS). During an expedition to Mt. Kilimanjaro, a group of 26 trekkers who were trained in the Wim Hof Method used the breathing techniques to largely prevent and, if needed, reverse symptoms of AMS. Article: Frequent Extreme Cold Exposure and Brown Fat and Cold-Induced Thermogenesis: A Study in a Monozygotic Twin Authors: J. Vosselman, W.D. van Marken-Lichtenbeld - Maastricht University Medical Center Summary: This study tested the effects of a lifestyle with frequent exposure to extreme cold on brown adipose tissue (BAT) and cold-induced thermogenesis (CIT). The experiment compared Wim Hof, who is used to extreme cold exposure, to his monozygotic twin brother who isn’t. Both used a g-Tummo like breathing technique. The results showed no significant difference in BAT or CIT between the two subjects. However, Wim’s core temperature dropped less compared to his brother and his subjective response to the cold temperature was more positive. Furthermore, the body heat generated of both brothers was considerably higher than the average person. Thus, it seems that g-Tummo like breathing during cold exposure might cause additional heat production. 2012 Article: The Influence of Concentration/meditation on Autonomic Nervous System Activity and the Innate Immune Response: A Case Study Authors: M. Kox, M. Hopman, P. Pickkers. et al. - Radboud University Medical Center Summary: This case-study research was conducted after Wim Hof claimed he could influence his autonomic nervous system and thereby his innate immune response. His inflammatory response was measured during an 80-minute full body ice immersion and practicing the Wim Hof Method concentration technique. In addition, an endotoxemia experiment was conducted to study Wim’s in vivo innate immune response. The results showed how the techniques of the Wim Hof Method seemed to evoke a controlled stress response. This response is characterized by sympathetic nervous system activation, which seems to attenuate the innate immune system. Here, Wim Hof proved he was able to influence his a 2009 Letter: Blood tests during meditation and breathing exercises in New York led by Dr. K. Kamler & G. Stewart Summary: During Wim’s world record attempt of full ice immersion wearing only shorts, he swallowed a vital sense monitor capsule to measure his core temperature. His core temperature started at 98.6 °F and dropped to 88 °F after 75 minutes of cold immersion. Remarkably, his temperature rose again to 94 °F within the next 20 minutes. Standard medical dogma states that once your core temperature falls below 90 °F, your body is not able to warm itself again. Thus, if no external source of heat is provided, your temperature will continue to spiral downward and you will eventually die of hypothermia. However, Wim proved he was able to raise his core temperature from 88 °F to 94 °F by using the Wim Hof Method techniques (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4034215/) 2019 - Research currently being conducted: Motivation and Experiences of WHM Practioners RMIT University in Australia has conducted a survey study, exploring the motivation and experiences of Wim Hof Method practitioners worldwide. This will offer insight into 1) the positive impact of practicing the WHM on health & wellbeing and 2) any potential adverse effects, which in turn improves safety protocols. The data is currently being analyzed. Inflammation & Pain In the Netherlands, Radboud University Medical Center in Nijmegen is completing a new study about the effects of the various components of the WHM on inflammation and pain. Metabolic Activity Kenkodo Metabolomic Discoveries in Germany is working closely with Radboud UMC. They are analyzing blood samples that have been taken by Radboud UMC in previous studies. Using this data, they seek to deepen the understanding of the metabolic activity in blood cells when practicing the WHM. Its various parameters can provide new insight into shifts in metabolic rate. Auto-immune Disease The Amsterdam Medical Centre (AMC) in the Netherlands is conducting a study into the effects of the WHM on inflammation and quality of life of people with Spondylitis. Brain Activity Wayne State University in Michigan, USA, is measuring the effect of the WHM on brain activity. This research consists of 2 parts: 1. Effects of isolated cold exposure 2. Effects of cold exposure combined with WHM breathing exercises and mind-set Hof wore a water perfusion suit, which continuously pumps ice cold water in and out of tubes in the suit, while lying in fMRI and PET machines. They also monitored his heart and metabolic rates. “I was heating the water at first,” he said. Please subscribe to our podcast & rate it 5 stars!
