What if your chronic pain is real, your tests are clear, and your nervous system is the alarm that won't shut off? On The Dr. K Show, Dr. K talks with Natalie Rivans of re-origin, a former London police officer whose years on high alert ended in chronic pain, anxiety and food sensitivities no test could explain. She explains how brain retraining works alongside medical care for Lyme and long COVID, and how she went from a handful of safe foods to eating whatever she wants. If you've been told everything looks normal, start here.

Did today's psychedelic therapy boom start with a man who liked to make things up? On The Dr. K Show, Dr. K talks with John O'Connor, journalist and author of A Short, Strange Trip, about Terence McKenna and the 1971 magic mushroom and ayahuasca experiment in the Colombian Amazon that shaped how we think about psychedelics. O'Connor, who retraced the trip himself, explains what the McKenna brothers were really chasing and why he thinks psychedelics can help with PTSD and addiction without being a magic bullet. If you're curious about psychedelic therapy, or wary of the hype, start here.

What if the CBD or THC product that finally gives your child relief from seizures, or gives you a real night of sleep, becomes illegal in a few months, because of a sentence quietly added to a bill about reopening the government? In this episode of The Dr. K Show, Dr. K sits down with Joe Sheehey, founder and CEO of Cured Nutrition, about the fight to keep full spectrum hemp extract legal in the United States. Joe spent years as an aerospace engineer contracted to NASA through Lockheed Martin, until a mental health crisis in college and a later moment of shame over using CBD at a federally funded company pushed him to leave engineering and build a company around changing the conversation on cannabinoids. They cover the hemp definition change buried in the bill that reopened the government, the research behind a non-impairing THC dose, and the story of Charlotte Figi, whose family's use of full spectrum hemp extract for epilepsy helped start the entire industry. If you've wondered whether cannabinoids are safe, or you're watching access to them disappear state by state, this conversation lays out what's at stake. Key Takeaways: Why full spectrum CBD and THC products are set to become illegal nationwide on November 12, 2026, after a hemp definition change was folded into the bill that reopened the governmentThe Johns Hopkins research behind the 3 milligram non-impairing THC threshold, and why Cured Nutrition caps its products at 1.25 milligrams per servingCharlotte Figi, the 20 to 1 CBD to THC ratio, and how one family's use of full spectrum hemp extract for epilepsy became the foundation of the entire CBD industryFrom NASA-contracted aerospace engineer to CBD founder: Joe Sheehey on the mental health crisis and workplace shame that pushed him to start Cured NutritionWhy combining CBD with THC may help cancer patients avoid the opioid spiral of pain, lost appetite, and constipationSchedule a Free 15-Min Cancer/Lyme Consultation at The Karlfeldt Center: 208-338-8902 Resources: Cured Nutrition - https://curednutrition.com  Serenity Gummies - https://curednutrition.com/products/serenity-gummies  One Hemp - https://onehemp.us  Coalition for Access Now - https://www.coalitionforaccess.org  Medical Disclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or replace professional medical advice.

Why does losing sexual function make so many men ask themselves the same question: am I enough? In this episode of The Dr. K Show, Dr. K sits down with Jeff Nuziard, founder of RegenMax and a specialist in hormone optimization and erectile dysfunction reversal, about the moment his own body stopped working the way he expected it to. At 40, Jeff's testosterone had dropped from 1185 to 305 with no real change in his lifestyle, and the erectile dysfunction that followed sent him into a research process that has now spanned more than twenty years and treated over 3,200 patients. They talk about what actually happens inside the body during an erection, why the corpus cavernosum breaks down the same way a kitchen sponge does over time, and how RegenMax combines hormone optimization, collagen remodeling and a placenta-derived biologic to reverse erectile dysfunction in a reported 97 percent of cases, without relying on pills alone. Jeff also shares a statistic that stopped Dr. K cold: erectile dysfunction is now the third leading cause of suicide among men. If you or someone you love has quietly wondered whether this is just something to live with, this conversation says otherwise. Key Takeaways: Why erectile dysfunction is tied to a man's sense of identity, and its link to being the third leading cause of suicide among menThe real cause of erectile dysfunction: how the corpus cavernosum and a "venous leak" explain why men can get erect but can't maintain itWhy testosterone loss, not aging itself, is what activates the aging process, and how levels can fall from 1185 to 305 in about a decadeInside RegenMax: how collagen remodeling, angiogenesis and a placenta-derived biologic reverse erectile dysfunction in a reported 97 percent of casesWhy pelleted testosterone replacement, not injectable, is the more consistent way to keep hormone levels stable long termSchedule a Free 15-Min Cancer/Lyme Consultation at The Karlfeldt Center: 208-338-8902 Resources: RegenMax - https://regenmax.com  Medical Disclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or replace professional medical advice.

What do you do when your five-year-old is already on three medications, and the doctor wants to add a fourth? In this episode of The Dr. K Show, Dr. K sits down with Dana Kay, founder of the ADHD Thrive Institute and author of Thriving with ADHD, about the medication spiral that sent her from accounting into functional medicine, and the moment in a doctor's office that changed her family's course. Dana Kay walks through her theory that most ADHD symptoms trace back to an overloaded body rather than a fixed brain disorder, covering gluten, gut health, and the testing she uses to find what's really driving a child's symptoms. If your child's diagnosis has felt like the end of the conversation instead of the start of one, this episode gives you somewhere else to look. Key Takeaways: Why ADHD diagnoses in children keep climbing, and why Dana Kay believes more than 70 percent of the kids she works with do not have true ADHDInside the medication spiral: how her son ended up on four ADHD medications by age five, and what the stimulant and SSRI side effects actually looked likeThe "trash can" theory of ADHD: how chronic inflammation, toxin overload and gut dysfunction drive ADHD symptoms in childrenGluten, glutamorphin and ADHD: how a gluten peptide that acts like morphine in the brain fuels meltdowns, anxiety and mood swingsWhy girls get diagnosed with ADHD later than boys, and how inattentive ADHD symptoms get missed at school and at homeSchedule a Free 15-Min Cancer/Lyme Consultation at The Karlfeldt Center: 208-338-8902 Resources: ADHD Thrive Institute - https://adhdthriveinstitute.com  Thriving with ADHD - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/61281966-thriving-with-adhd Medical Disclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or replace professional medical advice.

What does it mean when a woman in her fifties says her life force has just leaked out? In this episode of The Dr. K Show, Dr. K sits down with Dr. Julie Merriman, a licensed professional counselor supervisor, yoga therapist, and university professor whose new book carries a title that turns heads: Are We Gonna Have Sex or What? Dr. Merriman has watched her clients age alongside her over the years, and around fifty she started hearing the same thing over and over from the women in her practice: something felt gone, and they assumed they were broken. Her research pointed her toward the nervous system, and toward a pattern she believes gets missed in most conversations about hormones and menopause: a woman can be on hormone replacement and still not feel desire come back online if her body has spent thirty years bracing for the next item on the to-do list. They talk about why so many women hit fifty with a nervous system that has been running on fight or flight for decades, why hormone replacement alone often is not the full answer, and why Dr. Merriman believes an earth shattering orgasm might be one of the best resets available for a body that has forgotten how to soften. She also shares how she and her husband have kept their own forty-year marriage playful, and why respect, communication, and a little novelty matter as much as anything that happens in the bedroom. If you have ever felt like you have been carrying everyone else's needs for so long that you forgot where your own body finds pleasure, this conversation is for you.

What if the fastest way to protect your bones has nothing to do with a pill, and everything to do with the way your heel hits the ground? In this episode of The Dr. K Show, Dr. K sits down with Rush Simonson, a former Medtronic spinal implant distributor who spent eighteen years inside more than a thousand spinal surgeries before turning to molecular medicine, where he co-discovered a novel protein complex behind chronic back and joint pain now in FDA Phase 2 trials. Simonson walks through mechanotransduction, the process by which the simple impact of a footstep signals the skeleton to rebuild itself, and how his company built the microimpact device Juvent around that discovery. They get into why cushioned running shoes can work against your bones, why a proton pump inhibitor prescribed for heartburn can quietly starve the body of calcium, and why more stimulation isn't always better; Simonson's own protocol is just ten to twenty minutes a day. He also shares what he's seeing in Parkinson's patients using microimpact for lymphatic drainage, and why physician-guided bone density programs are seeing gains of three to six percent a year. If you've ever been told your bone density will only keep declining, this conversation makes the case that it doesn't have to.

What happens when your body finally heals, but the rest of you never got the memo? In this episode of The Dr. K Show, Dr. K sits down with Amy Kurtz, health coach, patient advocate, and author of But You Look Fine, to talk about a stage of recovery almost nobody prepares you for. After decades of misdiagnosis and a late stage neurological Lyme diagnosis, Amy got physically better, and then fell apart in a completely different way. She named it Medical Trauma Brain: the nervous system staying locked in survival mode long after the illness itself is gone. They talk about why medicine is built to treat parts of the body instead of the whole person, why "you look fine" can feel like the loneliest sentence in the English language, and what actually helps when someone you love is struggling with something you can't see. If you've ever felt like your body healed before your mind did, or you're supporting someone who has, this conversation gives you language for something you may have felt for years without a name for it. Key Takeaways: 0:00 Introduction 1:46 Why it took 36 doctors to finally name Medical Trauma Brain 6:36 Medical Trauma Brain, when your body heals but your nervous system doesn't get the memo 9:13 Why treating recovery as "sick vs. well" keeps patients stuck 15:40 Feeling fine and still far away, the mask patients wear in public 20:48 The loneliness epidemic hiding inside invisible illness 30:15 What people going through illness actually need, to be seen, heard, and believed 33:49 The best thing to say to someone who's struggling, and a Tig Notaro story that proves it Schedule a Free 15-Min Cancer/Lyme Consultation at The Karlfeldt Center: 208-338-8902 Resources: But You Look Fine (Amy Kurtz's book) - https://amykurtz.com/but-you-look-fine/ Amy Kurtz - https://amykurtz.com/ Medical Disclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or replace professional medical advice.

What if Parkinson's disease doesn't start in the brain at all, but in the gut? In this episode of The Dr. K Show, Dr. Michael Karlfeldt sits down with Martha Carlin, citizen scientist, founder of BiotiQuest and The Bio Collective, and author of Connected, to unpack the 22-year journey she and her husband John lived after his Parkinson's diagnosis at age 44. Martha explains how removing processed food and GMO soy changed John's visible tremors within months, and how that discovery pulled her out of a corporate career and into two decades of independent microbiome research. The conversation moves through the science she uncovered along the way: the glycocalyx, the gel-like layer coating every cell in the body; how endotoxin from gut bacteria drives chronic inflammation across dozens of diseases; why H. pylori can quietly eat the dopamine that Parkinson's medication is supposed to deliver; and a striking account of fecal transplants shrinking tumors in cancer patients within two weeks. Martha also breaks down why endurance athletes face a hidden Parkinson's risk tied to the very same gut mechanisms. If you or someone you love is navigating a Parkinson's diagnosis, or you simply want a clearer picture of how the gut shapes chronic disease, this episode reframes the conversation. Key Takeaways: 0:00 Introduction 1:51 Husband John's Parkinson's diagnosis at 44 7:03 Removing processed food eliminated his visible tremors 15:46 The glycocalyx: the fuzzy layer controlling every cell 28:06 Endotoxin as the hidden driver of chronic disease 35:25 Fecal transplants shrinking tumors within two weeks 43:42 Why endurance athletes face a hidden Parkinson's risk  Schedule a Free 15-Min Cancer/Lyme Consultation at The Karlfeldt Center: 208-338-8902 Resources: Connected: Love, Loss, and the Unseen Forces Behind Chronic Disease - https://a.co/d/0af28yWa BiotiQuest - https://biotiquest.com Martha's Quest - https://marthasquest.com  Medical Disclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or replace professional medical advice.

What if the word "medicine" has quietly narrowed down to mean nothing more than a pill? In this episode of The Dr. K Show, Dr. Michael Karlfeldt sits down with Dr. Geeta Maker-Clark, board-certified family physician and co-director of the Culinary Medicine program at the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine. Dr. Maker-Clark, author of Medicine for All People: Science and Ancient Wisdom for Revolutionary Healing, explains why conventional training alone wasn't enough for the patients she saw, how she helped bring food-as-medicine training into a major medical school curriculum, and why she now defines medicine as anything that actually heals, not only what comes in a capsule. The conversation covers the circadian rhythm reset she calls dusking, why plants deserve a personal relationship rather than just a prescription pad, and why she considers community one of the most powerful medicines we have, backed by research showing chronic loneliness carries health risks on par with smoking a pack of cigarettes a day. If you've ever wondered what a doctor trained in both conventional medicine and ancestral healing actually prescribes for a full life, this episode lays it out. Key Takeaways: 0:00 Introduction 1:32 Why food alone wasn't the whole story for her book 3:18 Conventional training wasn't enough tools in the toolbox 6:48 Bringing culinary medicine into the University of Chicago curriculum 11:10 Redefining medicine as what actually heals 16:21 Reconnecting to nature and the practice of dusking 27:55 Community as medicine and the true cost of loneliness  Schedule a Free 15-Min Cancer/Lyme Consultation at The Karlfeldt Center: 208-338-8902 Resources: Medicine for All People: Science and Ancient Wisdom for Revolutionary Healing - https://a.co/02lCVyCv Dr. Geeta Maker-Clark - https://drgeetamakerclark.com/ University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine-Culinary Medicine program - https://pritzker.uchicago.edu/ Endeavor Health - https://www.endeavorhealth.org/  Medical Disclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or replace professional medical advice.

With measles cases spreading across 34 states and vaccine trust at an all-time low, the questions people are afraid to ask out loud deserve straight answers from someone who's actually read the data. In this episode of The Dr. K Show, Dr. K sits down with Dr. Mike Myers, primary care physician with over 35 years of experience across Summit Health New Jersey, Mass General Brigham, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts, and PricewaterhouseCoopers, and author of The Vaccine Bible: A Comprehensive and Commonsense Guide to What Keeps Us Safe from The Flu, Measles, Hepatitis, and More. They work through the questions most doctors don't have time to answer - how mRNA technology actually works, why the MMR-autism link was fabricated and debunked by hundreds of studies, what adjuvants like aluminum are actually doing in your body, and why the measles outbreak happening right now is hitting unvaccinated communities the hardest. No talking points, no agenda - just the science, explained plainly.

You were told vegetable oil was heart-healthy. What you weren't told is that it started as industrial machine lubricant - and the marketing never stopped. In this episode of The Dr. K Show, Dr. K sits down with Cherie Calbom, globally recognized as "The Juice Lady," nutritionist, and author of 36 books including her latest, The Truth About Seed Oils. Cherie traces how the seed oil industry quietly replaced traditional fats after World War II, fueled a decades-long lipid myth, and set off a chronic disease epidemic we're still living through. From the Hateful Eight oils to the omega-6 to omega-3 ratio destroying your cells, to why your skin, brain, hormones, and heart are all paying the price.  This conversation cuts through the confusion and gives you a clear path back to real food and real health. Key Takeaways: 0:00 Introduction 2:17 How World War II launched the seed oil takeover 11:00 The Hateful Eight oils and what makes them dangerous 13:32 Good oils: what to cook with and what to take cold 14:11 How seed oils damage the brain, heart, and every cell in your body 18:40 Barbecue, restaurants, and how to navigate seed oils in real life 19:08 The omega-6 to omega-3 ratio and the slow fire of inflammation 27:00 How long it takes to turn your health around after cutting seed oils  Schedule a Free 15-Min Cancer/Lyme Consultation at The Karlfeldt Center: 208-338-8902 Resources: The Truth About Seed Oils by Cherie Calbom - https://juiceladycherie.com/ Seed Oil Scout App - https://www.seedoilscout.com  Medical Disclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or replace professional medical advice.

What if the toxins accumulating in your body right now aren't just from the food you eat or the air you breathe, but from technology that wasn't supposed to be there in the first place? In this episode of The Dr. K Show, Dr. K sits down with Dr. Jonathan Group, registered dietitian, doctor of chiropractic, and co-founder of Global Healing, to break down what independent researchers are finding in blood samples, vaccine vials, and even dental anesthetics, and what it means for your health. Dr. Group explains how nanoparticles and hydrogels are accumulating in the body, why they're driving autoimmune flares, kidney stress, turbo cancers, and clotting issues, and why the detox protocols that worked five years ago simply aren't enough anymore. The conversation also pulls back the curtain on how Global Healing builds their supplements from the ground up, from triple-distilled water and glass vessels to their proprietary microsomal technology, and which products Dr. Group says everyone should be taking right now. Key Takeaways: 0:00 Introduction 1:34 Why Global Healing pivoted from clinic to supplements 3:02 How a blocked gut becomes the root of all chronic disease 4:47 Nanotechnology, smart dust, and what's being found in blood 8:40 Are we sure this is real?

What if most of what you think you know is wrong, and that's actually good news? In this episode of The Dr. K Show, Dr. K sits down with Professor Ellen Langer, Harvard psychologist and the mother of mindfulness, to explore what it really means to pay attention. Ellen has spent 50 years researching how the mind shapes the body, and the results are harder to dismiss than most people expect. In one study, elderly men reversed measurable signs of aging in five days. In another, hotel chambermaids lost weight and lowered their blood pressure without changing a single thing about their diet or workload, only their mindset shifted. In a third, a rigged clock changed how fast wounds healed. This conversation gets into the difference between mindfulness and meditation, why certainty is the enemy of growth, how stress is almost always optional, and what it means to actually live your life instead of just moving through it on autopilot. If you've ever felt stuck in the same patterns, dismissed by a doctor, or convinced that things are just the way they are, this one will shake something loose. Key Takeaways: 0:00 Introduction 1:30 Mindfulness is not meditation: here's the actual difference 4:24 Active noticing fires neurons and literally keeps you alive longer 5:07 A horse eating a hot dog changed how Ellen sees all knowledge 6:37 Two paths to mindfulness: top-down thinking and bottom-up practice 11:13 The pancreas story: how Ellen made herself sick with a single thought 15:03 The counterclockwise study: elderly men grow younger in five days 17:27 Chambermaids lose weight by changing only their mindset  Schedule a Free 15-Min Cancer/Lyme Consultation at The Karlfeldt Center: 208-338-8902 Resources: Ellen Langer's Website - https://ellenlanger.me The Mindful Body: Thinking Our Way to Chronic Health - https://a.co/d/0b7hyKNS Medical Disclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or replace professional medical advice.

What if your body already knows how to heal but stopped getting the instructions it needs? In this episode of The Dr. K Show, Dr. K sits down with Mick Emandi and Dr. Greg Carder, both from Regen MDs, to break down two technologies quietly changing what's possible in regenerative medicine: hydrogen inhalation therapy and Ultra RSF, a full-spectrum signaling technology drawn from all six regions of the placenta. Mick built a 40-location healthcare network serving over 30,000 patients across Florida and kept running into the same wall. People had tried stem cells, exosomes, even overseas clinics, and still weren't getting results. This episode is about why, and what actually works. The conversation covers how free radicals and mitochondrial damage drive nearly every chronic condition, why most stem cell treatments fail before they even reach the injured tissue, and how a shift from M1 to M2 inflammation, a signal your body was designed to make but can no longer complete, is the missing piece behind chronic pain that won't resolve. If you or someone you know has hit a ceiling with conventional or even integrative care, this one is worth your time.
