Unlocking the potential of the glymphatic system unveils a profound avenue for healing complex chronic illness and promotes cognitive vitality and neurological well-being. Operating primarily during sleep, the glymphatic system acts as the brain's self-cleaning mechanism, efficiently clearing metabolic waste and toxins that accumulate during wakefulness. Dr. Nafysa Parpia sits down with Dr. Tom Moorcroft to dive deeply into the newly discovered world of the glymphatic system.

Episode highlights include:

- How the glymphatic system functions in the brain during sleep.

- The role the glymphatic system plays in clearing waste and toxins from the brain.

- How disruptions in the glymphatic system contribute to complex chronic illness and neurological disorders.

 - Ways to enhance or support glymphatic function naturally.

- Supporting your nervous system for sleep and healing. 

- The key role the nose plays in glymphatic health.

- How to improve sleep in your everyday life.

Unlock the secrets of cellular communication with Drs Eric Gordon and Nafysa Parpia. 

They delve into the microscopic world of peptides—the minuscule proteins wielding monumental influence over your body and mind. Comprising short chains of amino acids, these tiny powerhouses orchestrate specific functions within your cells, playing a pivotal role in the intricate dance of bodily and mental processes. 

Drs. Eric Gordon and Nafysa Parpia unravel the realm of peptides, exploring their profound impact on overall well-being and demystifying the significance of peptides and their potential therapeutic role in complex chronic illness.

Episode highlights include:

- Different peptides affect different cells and, therefore, have various functions. This allows for highly tailored and targeted treatment plans that address a wide variety of conditions.

- Peptides work synergistically and can be used with many other therapies to increase the effectiveness of antibiotics, antiviral and antiparasitic medications, IV nutrient therapies, hormone therapies, detoxification therapies, herbal remedies, and other peptides. 

- Peptides we use most often in our practice for Complex Chronic Illness include those that address immune modulation, brain function, hormonal support, sleep support, and libido.
