Navigating the uncertainty of potential Lyme disease, mold exposure, or a combination of both can be a challenging and perplexing journey. Symptoms of these conditions often overlap, making it difficult to pinpoint the root cause.

The elusive nature of Lyme disease, coupled with the stealthy effects of mold toxicity, can create a complex web of health concerns. Fatigue, headaches, joint pain, and cognitive difficulties may leave individuals grappling with an array of symptoms unsure of the underlying culprit. Seeking guidance from healthcare professionals with expertise in both Lyme disease and mold exposure becomes crucial in unraveling this diagnostic puzzle.

Dr. Nafysa Parpia sits down with Dr. Ann Shippy to discuss this complex issue and how to begin to understand the steps toward healing.

Episode highlights include:

- Why do we need to consider BOTH Lyme and mold?

- What is chronic Lyme Disease, and what are its symptoms?

- Why do Mold/Mycotoxin and chronic Lyme have similar symptomatology, and what is the interplay between them?

- Why is it that some people get bit by a tick or have a mold exposure without any symptoms while others can have such exposures, but their entire life is not the same again?

- Why does removing the trigger initially not always bring illness resolution?

- Dr. Parpia’s methodology of treatment in complex chronic illness.

Unlocking the potential of the glymphatic system unveils a profound avenue for healing complex chronic illness and promotes cognitive vitality and neurological well-being. Operating primarily during sleep, the glymphatic system acts as the brain's self-cleaning mechanism, efficiently clearing metabolic waste and toxins that accumulate during wakefulness. Dr. Nafysa Parpia sits down with Dr. Tom Moorcroft to dive deeply into the newly discovered world of the glymphatic system.

Episode highlights include:

- How the glymphatic system functions in the brain during sleep.

- The role the glymphatic system plays in clearing waste and toxins from the brain.

- How disruptions in the glymphatic system contribute to complex chronic illness and neurological disorders.

- Ways to enhance or support glymphatic function naturally.

- Supporting your nervous system for sleep and healing.

- The key role the nose plays in glymphatic health.

Unlock the secrets of cellular communication with Drs Eric Gordon and Nafysa Parpia.

They delve into the microscopic world of peptides—the minuscule proteins wielding monumental influence over your body and mind. Comprising short chains of amino acids, these tiny powerhouses orchestrate specific functions within your cells, playing a pivotal role in the intricate dance of bodily and mental processes.

Drs. Eric Gordon and Nafysa Parpia unravel the realm of peptides, exploring their profound impact on overall well-being and demystifying the significance of peptides and their potential therapeutic role in complex chronic illness.

Episode highlights include:

- Different peptides affect different cells and, therefore, have various functions. This allows for highly tailored and targeted treatment plans that address a wide variety of conditions.

- Peptides work synergistically and can be used with many other therapies to increase the effectiveness of antibiotics, antiviral and antiparasitic medications, IV nutrient therapies, hormone therapies, detoxification therapies, herbal remedies, and other peptides.

- Peptides we use most often in our practice for Complex Chronic Illness include those that address immune modulation, brain function, hormonal support, sleep support, and libido.
