Dr Emily Rowe | Beyond Symptoms: Unveiling the True Cause of Illness in Our Bodies KKP: 708

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Dr. Emily Rowe. She graduated from the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine in 2004 with a doctorate degree in medicine. After a brief time in the field of Internal Medicine, she became frustrated with the Western approach to illness. She realized that she was being trained to treat the symptoms of disease and its end-stage complications, while failing to address its root cause. Inspired to find a comprehensive and definitive way to heal her patients, she went back to school and completed her Master’s Degree in Chinese Herbal Medicine and Acupuncture (Master of Oriental Medicine) in 2009.   She and her husband, Christopher M. Estes MD, opened the Miami Beach Comprehensive Wellness Center in 2017.

In this episode, Dr. Emily takes us through the intricate web of factors that affect our health, often lurking beneath the surface. She sheds light on the challenges of maintaining health, emphasizing how elevated toxic burdens or chronic infections can impact the body's pathophysiology, leading to issues like hormone imbalances and irregular blood sugar. Dr. Emily draws intriguing connections between heavy metal toxicity and cardiovascular problems, highlighting the role of metals as conductors that can disrupt the heart's electrical conductivity system, contributing to conditions like hypertension and atrial fibrillation. Join us on this enlightening journey with Dr. Emily as she uncovers the hidden factors affecting our health and provides valuable insights for a holistic approach to well-being.

[11:45] The Underlying Factors Affecting Health

Dr. Emily highlights the challenge of maintaining health despite a seemingly healthy lifestyle. She emphasizes that elevated toxic burden or chronic infections can significantly impact the body's pathophysiology, leading to issues like hormone imbalances and blood sugar irregularities.

Dr. Emily draws a connection between heavy metal toxicity and various cardiovascular problems. She notes that metals, acting as conductors, can disrupt the heart's electrical conductivity system, potentially contributing to conditions such as hypertension and atrial fibrillation.

The importance of addressing chronic stealth infections, including Lyme, Bartonella, and mold, is underscored. These infections can play a crucial role in complex chronic medical illnesses, affecting various bodily functions.

A combination of factors, such as traumatic events, environmental exposures, and unresolved emotional challenges, can contribute to the development of chronic illnesses.

[17:10] Metals, Tea, and Health Threads: Navigating Risks

Dr. Emily sheds light on the potential risks of being an avid tea drinker, especially when it comes to the interaction between tea's slight acidity and mercury from dental fillings.

The Clifford test, exploring immune reactivity to metals, becomes a crucial tool in understanding allergic reactions. 

There is a connection between tendinitis and heavy metal toxicity. Linking this to Chinese medicine, Dr. Emily notes the impact on the liver, which governs tendons and sinews.

Exploring the intricate relationship between oxalates, heavy metals, and connective tissue, Dr. Emily warns against high oxalate diets. The combination can create a problematic mesh within connective tissue, emphasizing the importance of a gradual approach to removal due to potential health risks.

[29:00] Decoding the Neurological Maze: Mold Exposure and Intricate Challenges

Dr. Emily unravels the intricate relationship between mold exposure and neurological challenges, emphasizing the principle of "like dissolves like."

Mold, being a fat-soluble toxin, particularly targets the brain and nerves composed of fat, often triggering peculiar neurological symptoms.

Patients may present with nuanced diagnoses from neurologists, such as one-sided Parkinson's.

Dr. Emily highlights the difficulty in addressing mold issues, urging patients to test their living environments first and foremost. 

Despite the financial challenges, creating a mold-free environment or relocating becomes imperative for lasting recovery. 

[43:15] The Power of Nitric Oxide: Dr. Emily's Exercise Insights

In the pursuit of optimizing nitric oxide levels, Dr. Emily advocates for the unparalleled benefits of exercise as the foremost trigger. 

Understanding the significance of mobility, Dr. Emily underscores the potential pitfalls of a sedentary lifestyle, emphasizing the link between inactivity and health issues, including the risk of nursing home admission. 

Her insights serve as a reminder of the transformative power of exercise in promoting overall well-being, transcending physical limitations, and contributing to a healthier, more active life.

[46:30] Unveiling Lyme Testing Realities: Dr. Emily's Journey Beyond Tick Bites

In the realm of Lyme testing, Dr. Emily sheds light on a significant challenge: the prevalent use of standard methods like the Western Blot ELISA combo, which, astonishingly, misses 50% of cases. 

Drawing from her personal experience, she shares a compelling narrative of grappling with Borrelia, Babesia, and Bartonella without a recollection of a tick bite.

Exploring the possibility of Lyme transmission in utero, Dr. Emily delves into her childhood health struggles and autoimmune issues, unraveling the complex interplay between chronic infections and the immune system.

Encouraging a shift in focus from emotional guilt to tangible solutions, Dr. Emily addresses the broader issue of environmental poisoning, urging individuals to acknowledge the harsh reality and take proactive steps toward better health. 

Her insights serve as a beacon for those navigating the intricate landscape of Lyme disease and chronic infections.

[53:50] Shedding Light on the Connection between Chickenpox, Shingles, and Epstein Barr

Dr. Emily unravels the connection between childhood infections, immune suppression, and virus reactivation, particularly in the case of chickenpox and Epstein Barr. 

Chickenpox, a common childhood ailment, can resurface as shingles later in life, especially during periods of immune suppression, forming a part of the 'Perfect Storm' scenario.

Epstein Barr, a member of the herpes virus family, stays dormant in the body after causing conditions like mono during adolescence.

Factors like living in a moldy environment, elevated heavy metal toxicity, and contracting COVID can trigger Epstein Barr reactivation, manifesting primarily as fatigue and brain fog.
