Would you drastically change your diet and sleep cycle if you had a serious disorder like ulcerative colitis or lupus to see if you could heal your illness naturally?

This week, Dr. Kahn features two examples of extreme but successful diet programs, one for autoimmune diseases like SLE (lupus) and one specifically for Crohn's and Colitis. The authors of the two books featured do offer consultation on achieving success against these extreme therapies. The power of the human body to heal itself is the theme of the week.

Vitamin K2 is Helpful and HDL-C is Harmful? New Insights Jun 17, 2022

Show notes

It is said that 50% of what is taught in medical school is wrong, but no one knows which 50%! For 50 years it has been taught that a low HDL cholesterol is a danger while a high HDL-C is protective. This week, Dr. Kahn discussed new data that completely changes that simple formula and turns it on its head. Before that, Dr. Kahn discussed how vitamin K plays a role in certain proteins, including Matrix Gla Protein, to prevent calcification of arteries and valves. A study using high dose Vitamin K2/M7 to prevent valve calcium has been published and it has mixed finding. The heart artery findings are hidden and provocative.

Long-Haulers: New Approaches May 27, 2022

Show notes

Long-haulers used to refer to truckers on a long drive but now it is one of the terms used to describe a prolonged period of illness after a Covid-19 infection or a Covid-19 vaccine. Post-acute sequelae of Covid (PASC) is another term used in the medical literature. As a referral center, Dr. Kahn has been asked to consult on several patients suspected to have this syndrome. What is it? How is it diagnosed? What are the resources to use? Is there any therapy? Beyond the potential therapies discussed this week, some have reported responses to IV vitamin drips and hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT). No therapy is FDA approved.

The Importance of Liver-Heart-Body Connections May 20, 2022

Show notes

While the Kahn Center is a cardiac clinic, Dr. Kahn deals with issues throughout the body as many conditions produce a network of diseases. One example is the very common condition called NAFLD (non-alcoholic fatty liver disease or NASH). A new term is MAFLD for metabolic associated FLD to stress the whole-body connection. This week the focus is on detecting NAFLD, searching for heart disease risk in those with it, and reversing it with data and supplements. Weight loss and the fasting-mimicking diet (PROLON) are also of use.

Even as young as 18. The message is clear: start young and stay on track.

Word Salad: Carotenoids and Polyphenols May 06, 2022

He then moves to the classes of polyphenols found in chocolate, teas, apples, and onions like quercetin. You will be smarter and healthier for the listen.
