Description

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.   LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/theoharis-theoharides-ms-phd-md-faaaai-67123735   Thank you for tuning in to the Hope and Help For Fatigue and Chronic Illness Podcast.

Welcome to the Hope and Help for Fatigue and Chronic Illness Podcast. It's our mission to help people that have some really complicated illnesses. People that have post viral syndrome like long COVID and ME/CFS or chronic fatigue. Those that have had toxic exposures like gulf war illness, mold exposures, pesticides and heavy metals. These illnesses can present very similarly, they can actually look the same to your clinician. You may have fatigue, post exertional malaise, foggy brain and many other symptoms that seem to be common across many illnesses. Underneath all of these illnesses, the causes of the symptoms are very similar. We know first hand how hard it is to get access to meaningful information and care when you find yourself or a loved one here. It is our hope to give you, bit by bit, the knowledge and ideas that we have seen make a positive impact on individuals just like you. And that you will take all those threads and begin to weave back together a healthier person. Brought to you by the Institute for Neuro-Immune Medicine where we have over 200 years of combined clinical experience in Neuro-Inflammatory disease.
