July 27Lyme Disease: The Symptoms, Tests, and Treatments Doctors Miss
What if the fatigue, brain fog, joint pain, or mysterious symptoms you've been chasing for years weren't caused by stress, aging, or burnout—but by a tick bite you never even noticed? Lyme disease is one of the most misunderstood illnesses in medicine. But Lyme is rarely just one infection—it's often part of a much bigger picture involving co-infections, immune dysfunction, inflammation, gut health, and environmental triggers.
In today's episode, I walk through a functional medicine approach to Lyme disease and tick-borne illness, including:
Why Lyme disease is so often missed—and the hidden role of co-infections like Babesia, Bartonella, Ehrlichia, and Anaplasma

The limitations of conventional testing and treatment, and how functional medicine looks beyond the infection to understand why some people recover while others remain chronically ill

The role of herbs, antibiotics, gut repair, detoxification, immune support, and mitochondrial health in a comprehensive recovery plan

What the latest evidence says about emerging therapies like ozone, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, and hyperthermia—as well as practical strategies to prevent tick-borne illness in the first place
Lyme disease isn't always just an infection—it's often a whole-body disruption. By addressing the underlying drivers of inflammation, immune dysfunction, gut health, and cellular resilience alongside the infection itself, you give your body the best chance to heal and recover.

July 22 Big Pharma's Trillion Dollar Deception on Mental Health | Joanna Moncrief
For decades, depression has often been described as the result of a chemical imbalance in the brain. But how strong is the evidence behind that idea? This episode explores one perspective on an area of medicine that continues to be actively debated and is intended to encourage thoughtful discussion—not to provide individualized medical advice.
Today on The Dr. Hyman Show, I'm joined by psychiatrist and researcher Dr. Joanna Moncrieff to examine the science behind the serotonin theory and explore how it shaped modern mental health care. Together, we consider why rethinking our assumptions may open the door to a more complete understanding of depression and recovery.
We discuss:
• Whether depression is best understood through the lens of a chemical imbalance—or something far more complex
• How the serotonin theory shaped modern psychiatry and why it's increasingly being questioned
• What current research says about antidepressants, emotional numbing, and informed consent
• Why lifestyle, nutrition, trauma, and social connection deserve a larger role in supporting mental health
• How a more individualized, whole-person approach could change the way we think about depression and recovery
Mental health treatment is deeply personal, and this episode explores one perspective on an area of medicine that continues to evolve. If you're currently taking antidepressants or other prescription medications, don't stop or change your treatment based on this discussion alone. Instead, use it as a starting point for an informed conversation with your healthcare provider.
Learn More: Dr. Moncrieff recently participated in an FDA Expert Panel on SSRIs and Pregnancy. If you'd like to explore another perspective on the evidence discussed in this episode, you can watch the panel here.

July 203pm Slump Destroying Your Focus? Here's What's Really Happening
Do you hit a wall every afternoon around 2 or 3 p.m.? If your energy disappears, your brain gets foggy, and you need caffeine or sugar just to finish the day, it isn't a lack of willpower—it's a sign that something deeper is driving your energy crash. In this episode, I explain the three biggest drivers of the afternoon slump and the simple changes that can help you maintain steady energy all day long.
In today's episode, I discuss:
The three hidden causes of the afternoon energy crash

Why skipping breakfast, relying on coffee, sugary smoothies, or carb-heavy meals sets you up for an inevitable drop in energy later in the day

How to build meals with protein, healthy fats, and fiber to stabilize blood sugar and create lasting energy instead of quick spikes and crashes

Simple daily habits that can dramatically improve your energy and focus
That afternoon crash isn't something you have to accept as part of modern life. When you stabilize your blood sugar, support your body's natural rhythms, and reduce chronic stress, your energy becomes more consistent, your focus improves, and you stop relying on caffeine and willpower just to make it through the day.

July 15 Heart Rate Variability | Why Your Nervous System Needs This.
We all experience stress. The real challenge isn't stress itself—it's whether we recover from it. Over time, chronic stress can quietly affect everything from inflammation and metabolism to sleep, digestion, and healthy aging.
This week on The Dr. Hyman Show, I talk with nervous system educator and HRV expert Salim Najjar to explore what heart rate variability (HRV) can reveal about your body's ability to recover from stress and build resilience.
Together, we unpack:
• How to use HRV to better understand your body's response to stress
• Why some stress makes you stronger while chronic stress wears you down
• How to get more value from your wearable without obsessing over the numbers
• Five daily habits that can help your nervous system recover and become more resilient
• How your nervous system influences inflammation, healing, and healthy aging
Our bodies are constantly responding to the demands we place on them every day. The good news is that resilience can be built, and the strategies in this conversation can help you recover from stress more effectively and support long-term health. To help you get started, Salim has created a free HRV guide that includes a personalized quiz and AI coach exclusively for listeners.

July 13 Too Much Histamine Is Wrecking Your Body — And Most Doctors Don't Know It
Histamine isn't just about seasonal allergies or a runny nose. It influences your brain, gut, hormones, immune system, and nervous system—and when your body can't regulate it properly, it can show up as everything from anxiety and migraines to insomnia, digestive issues, skin rashes, and brain fog. In this episode, I explain why histamine overload happens, how it relates to Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS), and what a root-cause approach looks like for calming an overactive immune system.
In today's episode, I discuss:
* Why MCAS and histamine intolerance are different—and how overactive mast cells can drive symptoms ranging from migraines and anxiety to digestive issues, hives, and heart palpitations
* The hidden triggers behind mast cell activation, including gut dysfunction, chronic infections, mold exposure, hormone imbalances, stress, and environmental toxins
* Why many "healthy" foods like avocados, spinach, tomatoes, kombucha, and bone broth can temporarily worsen symptoms when your histamine bucket is already full
* A root-cause approach to calming the immune system using nutrition, targeted supplements, medications when needed, nervous system regulation, and addressing the underlying drivers of inflammation
MCAS isn't simply a histamine problem—it's a sign that your immune system has become dysregulated. Instead of just suppressing symptoms, the goal is to understand why your mast cells are overreacting in the first place. When you lower the overall inflammatory load and restore balance to the gut, immune system, hormones, and nervous system, you create the conditions for lasting healing rather than temporary symptom relief.

July 08 How Brain Inflammation Drives Depression, Alzheimer's, and Parkinson's
For decades, we've thought about conditions like Alzheimer's disease, depression, and Parkinson's disease as disorders of the brain. But what if that's only part of the story?
Emerging science is revealing that many of the factors driving cognitive decline, mental illness, and neurodegenerative disease may begin far outside the brain itself—in our metabolism, our immune system, our gut microbiome, our hormones, and even the environment we're exposed to every day.
As part of our summer series, we're revisiting some of the most important conversations we've had on the topic of brain health.
In this special compilation episode, you'll hear from leading experts Dr. Richard Isaacson, Dr. Chris Palmer, and Drs. Ray Dorsey and Michael Okun as they explore the new science of brain health and what it means for preventing cognitive decline, supporting mental health, and protecting our brains as we age.
What I find most encouraging about this research is that it challenges the idea that brain decline is simply an inevitable part of aging. Instead, it suggests that many of the biggest drivers of brain health are things we can influence through the choices we make, the environments we create, and the ways we care for our bodies long before symptoms ever appear.

July 06Encore: Your Nervous System Controls Your Gut, Hormones, and Weight — Here's How to Fix It
You've cleaned up your diet. You're taking the supplements. You're exercising, sleeping more, and doing everything "right." So why do you still feel exhausted, inflamed, anxious, or stuck? In this encore episode—one of the most impactful Office Hours conversations we've shared—I explore a question that could change the way you think about healing: What if your nervous system is the missing piece? When your body doesn't feel safe, it prioritizes survival over repair, affecting everything from your metabolism and hormones to your gut, immune system, and brain.
In today's episode, I break down:
Why chronic stress changes your biology—and how nervous system dysregulation can drive inflammation, hormone imbalance, digestive issues, weight gain, and autoimmune disease

The difference between living in constant "fight-or-flight" versus a regulated nervous system that supports healing, resilience, and recovery

Simple, science-backed strategies to regulate your nervous system, including breathwork, blood sugar balance, strength training, sleep, and daily safety cues

Why you can't out-supplement or out-biohack chronic stress—and how creating physiological safety unlocks your body's natural ability to heal
Healing isn't just about finding the right supplement or following the perfect diet. It's about creating an environment where your body feels safe enough to repair itself. When you begin working with your nervous system instead of against it, everything else—from your energy and metabolism to your mood and resilience—can start to change.

July 01 3 Heart Experts Reveal What Really Prevents Heart Disease
As part of our summer series, we're revisiting some of the most important conversations we've had on the topics that matter most to our health. And few are more important than heart disease.
Heart disease remains the number one cause of death worldwide. Yet despite decades of research, millions of prescriptions, and billions of dollars spent on treatment, many people are still confused about what actually causes it—and what we can do to prevent it.
For years, the conversation around heart disease has focused almost entirely on cholesterol. But what if that's only part of the story?
In this special compilation episode, you'll hear from Dr. Cindy Geyer of The UltraWellness Center, Dr. Eric Topol, and Dr. Aseem Malhotra as they explore a different perspective on heart disease—one that goes beyond cholesterol and looks at the deeper drivers of cardiovascular risk, including inflammation, insulin resistance, metabolic dysfunction, lifestyle, and early detection.
You'll hear why many experts now believe heart disease often begins decades before symptoms appear, why traditional testing can miss important warning signs, and how emerging science is giving us new tools to identify risk earlier than ever before.
Most importantly, you'll hear a message that is both practical and hopeful: that many of the factors driving heart disease are within our control, and that prevention remains one of the most powerful tools we have.
Let's dive in.

June 29Encore: Why Normal Cholesterol Doesn't Always Mean Low Heart Disease Risk
High cholesterol has been treated as the main cause of heart disease for decades. But over the years, I've changed my mind. Today, I believe cholesterol is only part of the story, and that inflammation, insulin resistance, and metabolic health are often the real drivers of cardiovascular disease. In this encore episode, I'm revisiting one of my most talked-about Office Hours conversations to share how my thinking has evolved and why understanding the root cause of heart disease can completely change the way you approach prevention.
In today's episode, I discuss:
Why cholesterol alone is a poor predictor of heart disease—and the biomarkers I believe matter even more, including ApoB, lipoprotein(a), inflammation, and insulin resistance

The surprising role sugar, refined carbohydrates, and metabolic dysfunction play in driving cardiovascular disease

Why two people with the same cholesterol can have dramatically different heart disease risk—and how a personalized approach changes the conversation

The nutrition, lifestyle, and testing strategies I use to help reduce inflammation, improve metabolic health, and lower cardiovascular risk at its source
Heart disease isn't simply a cholesterol problem—it's often a metabolic and inflammatory problem. When you understand what's really driving your risk, you can stop chasing a single number and start addressing the underlying biology that supports lifelong cardiovascular health.

June 24Why Reproductive Health May Be the Most Important Biomarker for Women's Longevity | Dr. Natalie Crawford
Most health issues don't appear overnight. Long before a diagnosis is made, the body often provides subtle clues that something needs closer attention.
On this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I talk with double board-certified fertility physician Dr. Natalie Crawford about her new book, The Fertility Formula, and why fertility and hormone health can reveal far more about your health than many people realize.
We discuss:
Why the menstrual cycle may be one of the clearest indicators of overall health

How sleep, stress, and insulin resistance may be affecting your hormones

The overlooked symptoms that may signal deeper dysfunction

What many women get wrong about PCOS and hormone health

Practical strategies to support fertility, reduce inflammation, and improve long-term health
Health challenges don't begin when symptoms become impossible to ignore. They often start years earlier. Being able to recognize those signals is one of the most effective ways to take a proactive approach to your health.
Looking for a place to start? My 10-Day Detox is designed to help reduce inflammation, reset your metabolism, and build a stronger foundation for long-term health.
