EP22: Brain Fog: Causes and Prevention14 May 202400:23:36

Watch Dr. Theoharides’ exclusive talk on “Mast Cell Over-Activation And How It Affects Our Mind And Body Well-Being”

https://youtu.be/xEX9PhdFh1g

 

Is “brain fog” real? Dr. Theoharides Theoharides explains the truth.

Joined by Haylie Pomroy. Dr. Theoharides discusses the link between brain fog and various medical conditions, such as myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS), traumatic brain injury, and viral infections, including COVID-19.

Brain fog manifests as cognitive decline, including forgetfulness, difficulty finding words, and difficulty processing information. While it’s a common issue among people dealing with chronic illness, health practitioners are concerned how this symptom manifests in so many people, regardless of age, fitness, and health level.

Dr. Theoharis C. Theoharides is a prominent professor at Nova Southeastern University (NSU) and previously at Tufts School of Medicine. His research focuses on neuroinflammation, particularly the role of mast cells in conditions like autism spectrum disorder, chronic fatigue syndrome, and Long-COVID syndrome. With numerous awards, over 486 publications, and 37 patents, Dr. Theoharides is a leading expert in his field. Additionally, he has developed unique supplements containing flavonoids aimed at promoting health and wellness.

In this week’s episode, host Haylie Pomroy is joined by Irina Rozenfeld, a board-certified nurse practitioner, to talk about Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), its effects on the body and working with clinicians to find the right treatment.

The heart rate of individuals with POTS, when moving upright, elevates up to 30-40 beats per minute, depending on age. Patients can also experience tachycardia (Racing heart), Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS), orthostatic intolerance, and hypotension. 

A healthy body should be able to adapt to posture changes. But POTS causes its patients’ heart rate to go up and blood pressure to drop. It also goes with symptoms of other chronic diseases, such as diabetes and anemia

Tune in as we bring you hope and help in dealing with POTS. We at the Institute for Neuro-Immune Medicine are eager to help you transform body dysregulation into wellness.

 

Irina Rozenfeld is a Doctor of Nursing at the Institute for Neuro-Immune Medicine. She is also an Assistant Professor at the College of Osteopathic Medicine at Nova Southeastern University. Irina worked for over 20 years as a physician assistant in Russia before joining INIM, where she focused on myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome, chronic infections, vector-borne illnesses, metabolic syndrome, chronic pain, environmental issues, detoxification, and auto-immune diseases.
