BIO

Alexander Tups pursued his academic journey in Biology, initially studying at the Heinrich Heine University of Duesseldorf and the Philipps University of Marburg. He earned a Diploma in Biology at the latter institution, focusing on Animal Physiology, Genetics, and Developmental Biology. He further advanced his education through a Marie Curie and Boehringer Ingelheim Fonds Scholarship, undertaking a Ph.D. at the Rowett Research Institute, one of the UK's leading nutrition research centres and the Philipps University of Marburg. In 2005 he graduated with "summa cum laude (highest distinction) " for his research on the neuroendocrine mechanism that regulates seasonal body weight. Following his Ph.D., Alexander Tups served as a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Otago from 2006-2008. In recognition of his potential, he received a prestigious junior group leader grant in nutrition research from the German Ministry of Education and Research in 2007, amounting to €1,500,000. This grant allowed him to establish an independent research group called 'neuronal nutrition physiology' at the Philipps University of Marburg, where he explored the impact of nutrient sensing in the brain on the regulation of body weight and glucose homeostasis as one of the youngest independent group leaders in Germany. From 2012-2014 in addition to his group leader role he was Head of Department for Animal Physiology at this institution before he was appointed at the University of Otago in 2014 in Physiology.   Throughout his career, Alex Tups has contributed significantly to his field, publishing 48 peer reviewed research papers, the vast majority as lead author. His research has contributed to our understanding of how the brain controls body weight and blood sugar levels. His work has been internationally recognized with notable awards, such as the Michael Harbuz Price in neuroendocrine research in the UK in 2009, the Ernst and Berta Sharrer Award in Germany in 2014, the Commercialisation Researcher Award at Otago University in 2023 and the Research Excellence Price by the Physiological Society of New Zealand in 2023. Alexander reviews research for leading international journals and grant agencies including for Harvard University, the British Welcome Trust and the French and German National Research Agencies. He has advised the city council of his home town, Dunedin, on the impact of artificial lighting on human Health supported by his research which contributed to the installation of modern warm street lighting in Dunedin.   His research has been funded by Return on Science, Otago Innovation, the Royal Society of Marsden Fund, the Health Research Council, the German Ministry of Research and the German Research Foundation.

In this weeks episode of "Pushing the Limits" , Dr. David Furman, Director of the 1000 immunomes project, the world's largest longitudinal population-based study of immunology and aging at Stanford University and Associate Professor at the Buck Institute for Aging, Founder of Edifice Health and Cosmica Biosciences, discusses his extensive research in immunology, particularly focusing on the 1000 Immunomes Project, which aims to understand the immune system's role in aging.  He emphasizes the importance of studying human biology over traditional animal models and introduces the concept of the Inflammation Age Clock as a new biomarker for aging.  The discussion also covers the implications of systemic chronic inflammation in aging, the role of nutrition, and the potential for interventions to improve health span. Additionally, Dr. Furman shares insights into his work with NASA on accelerated aging in astronauts, highlighting the broader applications of his research in combating age-related diseases.   Takeaways:   

• Dr. Furman aims to have a massive impact on human health.
• The immune system plays a crucial role in aging.
• Human studies provide better insights than animal models.
• The Inflammation Age Clock is a new biomarker for aging.
• Chronic inflammation is a key factor in age-related diseases.
• Nutrition significantly affects inflammation and aging.
• Reliable biomarkers are needed for effective aging interventions.
• NASA's research on astronauts reveals accelerated aging in space.
• The convergence of technologies is revolutionizing health research.
• Future research will focus on protecting astronauts and advancing aging studies.

Titles: System Chronic Inflammation: The Hidden Driver of Aging Nutrition and Inflammation: Key Factors in Health span   About the 1000 immunomes Project: The Stanford 1000 Immunomes Project (KIP) is a collaborative ongoing study at Stanford University that aims to define the biological basis of aging and disease using state-of-the-art 'omics' platforms and advanced artificial intelligence (AI) methods. The main focus of 1KIP is to establish biomarkers for healthy versus sub-functional immune systems. They do this by identifying the interactions between genetic and environmental factors, which contribute to the observed heterogeneity of biological responses in human beings.  To this end, 1000 individuals of different age groups (9-96 years old) were recruited between 2007-2017. Their blood samples were screened using multiple state-of-the-art technologies at a single facility, the Human Immune Monitoring Center (HIMC) to measure circulating proteins, cell types, cellular functions, whole-genome blood gene expression and subjects' haplotypes using deep sequencing technologies. The 1KIP dataset has enabled us for the first time to identify reliable biomarkers of aging and disease in a longitudinal population-based study of immunology and aging. 1KIP provides reference values for thousands of immune variables and identifies clusters of individuals sharing similar health versus disease immune profiles.

In this insightful episode, we are joined by Dr. Mizyl Damayo, a holistic psychiatrist and founder of **Paradise Behavioral Health. Dr. Damayo specializes in precision psychiatry, an approach that goes beyond traditional psychiatric treatments to address the underlying causes of mental health disorders. She combines modern science with integrative, holistic therapies to deliver customized care tailored to each patient's unique needs. Key Topics Covered: * Precision Psychiatry: - What it is and why it's revolutionizing mental health treatment.   *Nutrient Deficiencies and Toxicities: - How imbalances in essential vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients can contribute to mental health issues, and how correcting these imbalances leads to improved brain function.   *Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT): The critical role hormones play in mood regulation, anxiety, and depression, and why balancing hormones is essential for mental wellness.   *Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT): - A deep dive into how HBOT supports brain function, helps repair neural damage, and promotes overall mental clarity and emotional balance.   *Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS): - How TMS is offering new hope for treatment-resistant depression by using magnetic pulses to stimulate brain regions involved in mood regulation.   *The Limitations of Traditional Drug Therapy: - Why relying solely on medications to treat psychiatric conditions often fails to address the root causes of mental health issues, leading to incomplete or temporary relief. Ailments Dr. Damayo Treats: Dr. Damayo works with a wide range of psychiatric and neurological conditions, including:

• Depression** (including treatment-resistant depression)
• Anxiety disorders
• Bipolar disorder
• Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
• Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
• Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
• Chronic fatigue and brain fog
• Cognitive decline and memory issues

Her precision psychiatry approach focuses on identifying the root causes of these disorders rather than just managing symptoms with medications. By uncovering nutrient deficiencies, toxicities (such as heavy metals), hormonal imbalances, and even neural damage, Dr. Damayo's approach offers a **whole-person** treatment plan that leads to more sustained mental and physical health. Why the Traditional Drug Approach Isn't Enough: For decades, the standard treatment for mental health disorders has been primarily **pharmaceutical drugs**. While these medications can provide symptom relief, they often fail to address the underlying causes of mental health conditions. Patients may experience side effects, dependence, or only partial relief. Dr. Damayo believes that while drugs can be part of the treatment, they should not be the only approach. By focusing on the root causes—such as nutrient imbalances, toxic buildup, and hormonal fluctuations—Dr. Damayo is able to offer a more comprehensive and effective solution. Her practice also emphasizes natural healing methods, such as hyperbaric oxygen therapy and ranscranial magnetic stimulation, which can significantly enhance brain health and recovery. Advanced Therapies Explained: *Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT): - By delivering oxygen under high pressure, HBOT increases oxygen levels in the brain, which helps heal damaged tissues, reduce inflammation, and promote neurogenesis (the growth of new brain cells). This therapy has been particularly beneficial for patients with cognitive issues, brain fog, and trauma-related conditions. * Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS): - TMS is a non-invasive, FDA-approved treatment that stimulates specific areas of the brain using magnetic pulses. It has shown remarkable success in treating depression, especially in cases where antidepressants have failed. TMS is also being explored for conditions like anxiety, PTSD, and OCD. Dr. Damayo's Unique Approach: Dr. Damayo's **precision psychiatry** integrates lab testing to identify deficiencies, environmental toxins, and other imbalances that could be contributing to mental health issues. Her personalized treatment plans may include **nutrient supplementation**, **detoxification protocols**, **hormone replacement**, and advanced therapies like HBOT and TMS. This **holistic model** looks at both the **mental and physical** aspects of health, understanding that the two are deeply interconnected. Mental health is complex, and there's no one-size-fits-all solution. Dr. Mizyl Damayo's innovative approach offers hope to those who have struggled with traditional treatments by focusing on the root causes of psychiatric conditions. Her **holistic and personalized** methods are helping patients achieve not just symptom relief, but true healing and long-term wellness. For more information about Dr. Damayo's practice and her unique precision psychiatry approach, visit her website at [Paradise Behavioral Health](https://www.paradisebehavioral.com/drdamayo/).   BIO

• Dr. Damayo is board certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology and by the Board of Preventive Medicine in Addiction Medicine.
• She uses the integrative medicine for mental healtyh and the precision psychiatry philosophy in  treating her psychiatruc patients, focusing primarily on treating the root cause with an emphasis on supplements, lifestyle and therapy rather than just reaching for a pill to mask the psychiatric symptoms.
• She has been a speaker for the local community and national conferences sharing her knowledge for mental health and treatment options from a functional psychiatric approach.
• She is certified by the Millenium Health Network to treat Traumatic Brain Injury focusing on decreasing inflammation and supporting hormone balance for a whole person approach in their recovery.
• She is the owner and medical director of Paradise Behavioral Health, a mental health clinic in Southwest Florida.
• She is also the medical director of Community Behavioral health that has clinics in Cape Coral and Miami FL.
• She is the creator of the Brain Well Program that uses the principles of precision psychiatry which looks into the root causes of mental illness using biomarkers that includes genetics and blood work.
• Dr Damayo is also an attending at Park Royal Hospital, a 100 bed plus inpatient psychiatric hospital in Fort Myers FL
• She has recently been added as adjunctive professor at Debusk College of Osteopathic Medicine, teaching 3rd year medical students in their psychiatry rotation.

In this episode, we have the privilege of speaking with Dr. Michael Lewis, renowned expert in brain health and traumatic brain injury (TBI), and author of the groundbreaking book, When Brains Collide. Dr. Lewis is the founder of the Brain Health Education and Research Institute and BrainCARE. With a military background and extensive experience in traumatic brain injuries, Dr. Lewis has dedicated his career to exploring how omega-3 fish oils can play a vital role in preventing and recovering from concussions, TBI, stroke, and neurodegenerative diseases. Key Discussion Points 1. The Role of Omega-3 Fish Oils in Brain Health Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA) and Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA), the primary omega-3 fatty acids found in fish oil, are crucial for maintaining brain structure and function. Omega-3s are anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective, making them vital in protecting the brain from injury and supporting recovery. 2. High-Dose Omega-3 Fish Oil for Concussions and Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) Dr. Lewis emphasizes how high-dose fish oil can help mitigate damage following a concussion or TBI. Dosing Protocols: In acute brain injury cases, Dr. Lewis recommends significantly higher doses of fish oil (e.g., up to 3-9 grams of combined DHA and EPA per day) to reduce inflammation, promote healing, and restore brain cell membrane integrity. Case studies demonstrate remarkable improvements in TBI patients, including quicker recovery times, reduced brain fog, and restored cognitive function. 3. Fish Oils for Neurodegeneration and Stroke Prevention Regular intake of omega-3s is shown to be effective in reducing the risk of neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. Omega-3s help prevent stroke by reducing blood clot formation, improving vascular health, and lowering inflammation in brain tissues. Dr. Lewis advocates for omega-3s as part of a preventive strategy, particularly for aging individuals at higher risk of neurodegenerative conditions. 4. Using Omega-3s as Preventive Medicine Consistent omega-3 supplementation is not just for recovery—it's crucial for maintaining optimal brain health. Athletes, military personnel, and individuals at risk for head trauma should use omega-3s proactively to strengthen their brain's resilience to injury. Preventative Dosing: Dr. Lewis suggests a daily intake of at least 2-3 grams of DHA and EPA combined for ongoing brain health and injury prevention. 5. How to Choose a High-Quality Fish Oil Dr. Lewis explains the criteria for identifying a high-quality fish oil supplement: Purity: Free from contaminants like heavy metals and toxins. Potency: Look for a high concentration of DHA and EPA. Stability: Avoid fish oils that oxidize easily, as rancid oils can be harmful. Sourcing: Prefer fish oils sourced from wild-caught, sustainably harvested fish. Importance of third-party testing to ensure the product is safe and effective. 6. Personal Stories and Case Studies Dr. Lewis shares inspiring stories of patients and athletes who have successfully used omega-3 therapy to recover from brain injuries. Examples include a football player who recovered from multiple concussions and a stroke survivor who regained cognitive function with high-dose omega-3 supplementation. 7. How to Use Omega-3s After Brain Injury Immediate supplementation following a brain injury can make a significant difference in recovery outcomes. The sooner omega-3s are introduced post-injury, the better. Dr. Lewis provides insight into the timing and administration of omega-3 supplements during the acute phase of brain injury treatment. Recommended Resources: Dr. Michael Lewis's Website: Brain Health Education and Research Institute: http://www.brainhealtheducation.org/ BrainCARE: BrainCARE Center   When Brains Collide Book Join us for this enlightening discussion on the powerful benefits of omega-3 fish oils for brain protection, recovery, and overall health. Dr. Michael Lewis's pioneering work is transforming how we approach brain injuries and neurodegeneration, highlighting the critical role that nutrition and supplementation play in maintaining cognitive vitality. Tune in to learn how you can harness the power of omega-3s for your brain health and optimize your recovery from injury or disease.
