| The Healing Side of Nicotine - What Science Overlooked | 30 Oct 2025 | 00:59:44 | |
Join us on this enlightening episode of the Holy Health Podcast as we explore a paradigm-shifting topic: nicotine. With leading wellness advocate Heather Gordon, we dive deep into the surprising role nicotine may play beyond smoking - especially its potential as an anti-inflammatory tool, modulator of the immune system, and support for brain and nervous-system health. We unpack the science (what’s backed by research, what’s still speculative), the risks, and the possibilities - breaking through stigma and conventional thinking. Heather shares her personal healing journey - through autoimmune struggles, post-viral recovery, and the search for answers outside standard prescription-only approaches - leading her to an unconventional but compelling conversation about controlled nicotine usage and inflammation regulation. We discuss how chronic inflammation underpins so many modern ailments, why the “villain” label for nicotine might obscure hidden therapeutic pathways, the importance of context, dosage, and supervision, and how this aligns (and clashes) with public health narratives. At the close of the episode, Heather Cohen offers a rich Torah-inflected extro: drawing parallels between physical healing, spiritual repair (tikkun), and our responsibility to steward our bodies and souls with wisdom and courage. You’ll walk away with new questions, perhaps fresh hypotheses to explore, and a deeper appreciation of how faith, medicine, and personal agency intersect. - - - - - YouTube: https://youtu.be/5Sz5TWuk_f0 - - - - - Links: Connect with Heather Gordon: Instagram / TikTok: @prettysickheather Website: ProjectGoods.com - - - - - | |||

After a very upsetting experience with a colleague in the health field who shockingly turned out to be an anti semite, I turned to The Pulse of Israel's Avi Abelow to try and understand why.

So I asked my brother Rabbi Shlomo Ben Zeev to join me for his straight from the Torah views. As he put it they may not be politically correct but it's what the Torah says. Just like Avi!
