Acupuncture is one of the most popular and effective alternatives to conventional treatment of chronic illness. However, there is still a prevailing skepticism surrounding alternative medicine within the medical community.

In this episode, Dr. Jacqueline Junco and I explore the transformative potential of acupuncture, Qigong, and Chinese traditional medicine as an alternative way of treatment for autoimmune disorders. Dr. Junco highlights the profound benefits of acupuncture in managing symptoms, offering a unique perspective on its ability to regulate stress levels and create a calm state of mind.

We also discuss the challenges patients face in accessing acupuncture treatment due to financial constraints and limited insurance coverage, exposing a huge gap in the availability of integrative approaches within mainstream healthcare.

In this episode, host Haylie Pomroy and Dr. Lubov Nathanson dive into the complex and rapidly evolving world of epigenetics, the study of how your behaviors and environment can cause changes that affect the way your genes work. This field is key in understanding chronic diseases, how they develop, why some people are more predispositioned to get sick than others, and how they can be prevented with lifestyle and diet.

They explain the static nature of genomics and contrast this with the dynamic nature of epigenetics. They also discuss the role of epigenetics in diseases like Myalgic Encephalomyelitis, chronic fatigue syndrome, and Gulf War Illness.

This conversation provides a new perspective on chronic illnesses, highlighting how epigenetic changes, influenced by our environment and choices, can significantly alter our health destiny.

Key points: 00:00 Introduction 03:23 Exploration of the significant epigenetic component in chronic diseases. 08:06 Research on Gulf War Illness and Epigenetics. 12:01 The role of lifestyle and nutrition in epigenetic changes. 16:55 All body systems are interconnected. 20:07 Dr. Nathanson’s vision for the future of medicine and chronic illness treatment. 23:24 The importance of considering the whole body in health and disease.

Dr. Lubov Nathanson, is a trailblazer in the field of epigenetics, currently serving as an assistant professor at the College of Osteopathic Medicine’s Institute for Neuro-Immune Medicine, Nova Southeastern University in Florida. Her research is revolutionizing our understanding of genetic expression, particularly in the immune cells of patients with ME/CFS (Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome). A key focus of her work is the potential role of DNA methylation, an epigenetic process that can activate or deactivate genes, in the context of ME/CFS.

Dr. Nathanson's commitment to advancing the field of ME/CFS research extends to her involvement in the ME/CFS Common Data Element (CDE) Project, where she plays a pivotal role in several working groups, including the Baseline/Covariate, Neurologic/Cognitive/CNS Imaging, and Biomarkers Working Groups. These groups are critical in reviewing and refining data collection instruments used in ME/CFS research, ensuring that the research community has the best tools at their disposal.
