July 02, 2019Encore Episode: GBM Alternative Treatments
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most aggressive form of brain cancer. Chemotherapy and radiation give a median survival of 14.6 months.

There are additional treatments that can improve a GBM patient’s quality of life and potentially extend the lifespan.
Nutrition: Eliminate sugar from the diet, as cancer cells love sugar. Examine your diet. Use supplements as needed. Visit www.nutrition-solutions.net or www.oncanp.com for more information.
Low-dose naltrexone: It can affect the tumor itself.
Repurposed drugs: Some drugs were approved for other purposes but can have good results on GBM.
Investigate Facebook groups for support and more recommendations.

Listen as patient advocate Julia Schopick joins Dr. Holly Lucille to share some alternative therapies for GBM.

June 25, 2019 Encore Episode: Stem Cell Therapy for Pain Management
Stem cell therapy involves taking your own material (fat or bone marrow) and injecting it back into your own pained areas.

Stem cells have the potential to become a specific type of body cell, based on where in the body they're injected. For instance, they can recreate cartilage and ligaments.

This burgeoning therapy is a potential alternative to surgical remedies in some cases.

Regenerative therapy isn’t for everyone. There may be better options based on what you’re hoping to heal, so make sure to speak to your doctor before heading down this path.

Listen as Dr. Harris Bram joins Dr. Holly Lucille to discuss how stem cell therapy works.

June 11, 2019 Why Doctors Are Pushing Narcotics that Don’t Work
The opioid crisis that has plagued our country is due to a lot of factors, including a broken patient care system.

As medicine become corporatized, doctors have less time to spend with patients and therefore aren’t able to properly diagnose the root issue causing chronic pain. Physicians are only able to offer treatments covered by insurance and opioids are over-prescribed.

Dr. David Hanscom, a retired board-certified orthopedic surgeon, notes that medical professionals are throwing random, simplistic procedures and prescriptions at complex problems. In this episode, he explains the neurological phenomena that cause chronic pain and anxiety and why mainstream medicine isn’t providing an appropriate solution.

Listen as Dr. Hanscom joins Dr. Holly Lucille to discuss how mainstream medicine needs to alter its approach to treating chronic pain.

June 04, 2019 Easy Sugar Breakup
The word hypnosis causes some people to feel uneasy, because they associate hypnosis with losing control.

However, we are hypnotized everyday by media, advertising and politicians. In fact, Rena Greenberg, CEO of Wellness Seminars, Inc., describes hypnosis as a very natural state of deep relaxation and focused concentration. She equates it to the state your mind is in right before you fall asleep or wake up—where you are conscious, but incredibly relaxed.

It’s in this state that the mind is most available for suggestion, making hypnosis a great tool for weight loss. Through her gastric bypass hypnosis program, Rena has helped clients lose up to 180 pounds by training the mind to make healthier choices long-term.

Listen as Rena joins Dr. Holly Lucille to discuss how hypnosis can help people lose weight and form healthier habits.

May 28, 2019Encore Episode: 6 Facts About Vitamin B12 Deficiency

Vitamin B12 helps keep your nervous system and blood cells healthy. Low B12 causes symptoms right away. Tingling of fingers and toes, fatigue, anxiety and depression are common.

Your B12 level may check out on your lab tests. That doesn’t prove that your cells are absorbing the vitamin. It’s a good idea to take a B12 supplement. It’s water soluble so your body can easily eliminate any excess.

Your gut health may need to be improved in order to break down B12 in your digestive tract. A sublingual tablet absorbs directly into your body.

Six Facts About Vitamin B12 Deficiency
There aren’t many natural B12-rich foods.
Vegetarians and vegans are at greater risk for B12 deficiency.
Your body doesn’t store B12 for long.
B12 helps make your DNA and red blood cells.
Heavy drinking and long-term use of acid-reduction medications inhibit B12 absorbency.
We need more B12 as we age but it’s harder for our bodies to absorb.
Listen as pharmacist Sherry Kelishadi joins Dr. Holly Lucille to discuss the importance of getting enough vitamin B12.
