Episode #135: Could Thymus Regulation be the Key to Immunity and Health?

My guest this week is Kent Holtorf, M.D. of Holtorf Medical. In this episode, Dr. Holtorf and I discuss how his clinic treats complex conditions such as lyme, mold, shingles and other chronic illnesses. Could it be that there is a more simple way of treating them than we think? What to treat first with chronically ill people, especially when they are incredibly sensitive? Dr. Holtorf addresses the importance of the immune system from a different perspective than most, specifically the thymus gland. Can you be sick if your thymus is working at an optimal level? How does the immune system get out of balance? How does mitochondrial dysfunction fit into chronic conditions? What is human transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) and why is it important? What peptides are the best for various conditions? These are just a few of the many topics we discuss. And stay to the end where Dr. Holtorf shares which peptide he thinks might become the next superstar over BPC-157!
