Your blood tests come back normal, but you still can't get through the day. There's a reason for that, and most doctors never test for it. This episode originally aired on Dr. Patrick Porter's Brain Fitness Podcast, where Evan H. Hirsch, MD joined Patrick to talk about why so many people with Long COVID and chronic fatigue keep getting told their labs look fine. We loved this conversation so much…

You've probably heard both sides of Dr. McCullough's protocol: some people say it changed their lives, while others say it only helped temporarily. So what's the difference? Dr. McCullough's protocol has gotten a lot of attention in the Long COVID community, and for good reason. It uses three over-the-counter supplements to clear lingering spike protein from the body, and the research behind it…
The headlines say your thyroid medication might cause cancer. Before you stop taking it, read this. A 2021 study of over 600,000 people found that long-term levothyroxine users had higher rates of several cancers. That number spread quickly, and for good reason. It sounds alarming. But the study had a critical flaw: it could not separate the effect of the medication from the autoimmune disease…
Only 14% of people who get the stellate ganglion block have lasting relief. The other 86% aren't unlucky. They just weren't told what was still driving the problem. If you got the SGB, felt better for a few weeks, and then watched the symptoms come back, you are not alone. The block did what it was supposed to do. What it cannot do is remove whatever put your nervous system in overdrive in the…
When your labs look normal but you still can't lose weight, the missing piece isn't usually more supplements or another protocol. It's often what's happening in your nervous system and how your body responds to years of accumulated stress. If you're a woman in your 40s or 50s who has optimized everything (sleep, diet, exercise, stress management) and still feel stuck, perimenopause and menopause…
Your brain may be stuck in survival mode. That could be why fatigue, brain fog, and poor sleep refuse to budge no matter what you try.

In this conversation, Patrick Porter, PhD, founder of BrainTap, explains why nervous system regulation…
Heavy metals, toxic burden, and nervous system dysfunction may be driving symptoms that standard testing never fully explains. Kyle Hulbert joins me to discuss the therapies his clinics use most often for people dealing with chronic fatigue, Long COVID, Lyme disease, brain fog, and other complex chronic conditions. We talk about his recovery from chronic mercury toxicity, why heavy metals remain a…
Lyme disease spent 13 years dismantling Tanya Hoebel's life before she found her way back, and the six steps she used to recover are not what most people expect. Most providers never look past the surface. Tanya learned that the hard way, and what finally worked was a framework most people in the chronic illness community never get shown. In this conversation, she walks through the six layers she…
Your fatigue, brain fog, and lingering symptoms after COVID may not be random. The spike protein can keep disrupting your body long after the initial infection clears. Evan H. Hirsch, MD, breaks down 13 distinct mechanisms through which the spike protein continues affecting energy production, immune function, circulation, the gut, and nervous system regulation in people dealing with Long COVID,…
