Hello Jimi,

We are excited to let you know that our next Gordon Medical Forum: Long COVID & ME/CFS will be live July 17th - 19th, and registration is now open!

For decades, Gordon Medical has supported individuals in successfully healing from persistent symptoms and chronic illnesses triggered by viral infections.

Long COVID is a post-viral syndrome with some new twists due to the issues of persistent spike protein and viral persistence.

Issues such as inflammation, hypercoagulability, and immune dysregulation are common downstream effects and compensations due to many interacting factors. These are commonalities that diagnoses such as Long COVID, ME/CFS, and Chronic Lyme Disease have in common.

The growing community of individuals with Long COVID faces the same limited treatment options historically offered to the ME/CFS community - approaches that often fail to address the multiplicity of issues that are actually present for each individual patient.

A range of therapies exists that could help these patients, and each patient must be assessed as an individual in order to determine which therapies would be most appropriate. Each patient’s biochemical and genetic expression under the given diagnosis is unique.

Our mission for the upcoming Gordon Medical Forum, Long COVID & ME/CFS, is to bring together pioneering doctors and researchers investigating cutting-edge solutions that may help you find your path to recovery.​
​
During this 3-day event, we are examining causes of Long COVID and its similarities to other chronic illnesses. We also discuss possible therapies and methods to enhance your body’s natural healing processes.

In our conversations with over 25 experts, we’ll examine the possible future of medicine in this new post-COVID world and how it has changed the landscape of both traditional and naturopathic/functional medicine.

These expert talks include:

  • Dr. Paul Anderson, Long COVID and the Chronic Fatigue Connection
  • Jessica Drummond, Long COVID in Women: Hormonal and Autonomic Effects
  • Dr. Eleanor Stein, Energy Recovery Through Optimizing Circadian Biology
  • Dr. Peter Kan, Brain-Gut Connection in Long COVID Recovery
  • Gez Medinger, Promising Long COVID Treatment Trials
  • Felix Scholz, T Cell Dynamics and Testing in Long COVID and ME/CFS
  • Dr. Jamie Kunkle, Loss of Immune Tolerance in Long COVID
  • And more

We can’t wait to share the latest research with you and help you find direction. Because the more you know, the more you can proactively help yourself heal.​
​
To your good health!​
Team Gordon Medical​

Vitamin B3 Drives Energy Production

By Dr. David Brownstein, M.D.

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the body’s energy molecule that is used to catalyze enzymatic reactions. Human beings cannot exist without an adequate source and production of ATP.

The human body is designed to optimize ATP levels throughout life. The molecule can be produced in many different ways, but the primary generators of ATP are mitochondria — often referred to as “the powerhouses of cells.”

Special: Fight Fatigue With This Doctor's Secret Weapon

Production of ATP in the mitochondria is carried out via a chain reaction known as the Krebs cycle, which produces most of the energy the body uses. This complex process is dependent on an adequate supply of a compound generally called nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD), which is a coenzyme found in all living cells.

In fact, nicotinamide and niacinamide are the exact same thing. That means the “N” in NAD can refer to niacinamide (vitamin B3).

Therefore, you can see why the production of energy depends on an adequate supply of vitamin B3.

Dr. David Brownstein, M.D., editor of the Natural Way to Health newsletter, is a board-certified family physician and one of the nation’s foremost practitioners of holistic medicine. In addition to his practice, Dr. Brownstein has lectured internationally to physicians and is the author of more than a dozen very popular books.

In our previous clinical insights article on the cellular causes of prostate cancer, I discussed why normal prostate cells become cancerous and pointed toward environmental contributors as one of the culprits. There are a group of environmental toxins referred to as endocrine disruptors linked to prostate cancer development and progression. Today, I'd like to discuss where endocrine disruptors are most prevalent, how to reduce exposure, and how to eliminate them from your body when exposure is inevitable.







What are Endocrine Disruptors?





Endocrine disruptors are exogenous substances that interfere with the normal functioning of your body's natural hormones, acting as xenoestrogens (synthetic estrogen) or antiandrogens. Essentially, we are exposed to very low concentrations of multiple endocrine disruptors. The most known are pesticides, insecticides, plastic bottles (polycarbonate, bisphenol), lubricants (which may contain Nonylphenol), plastics, and food packaging.





Bisphenol A





Bisphenol A (BPA) is a common endocrine disruptor and a key ingredient in modern plastics found in the inner lining of canned foods. It may act as a xenoestrogen mimicking estrogen and attach to estrogen receptors by fooling the body into thinking it is endogenous. This process interferes with the normal functioning of hormones and may lead to prostate cancer in men. One study in prostate cancer cells showed that even a low amount of BPA initiated the proliferation of cancer cells (Wetherill et al. 2002). BPA is found in plastics and canned goods. So, while tomato sauce contains lycopene which is good for fighting prostate cancer, if it comes from a canned source with BPA, the BPA in the sauce may offset its benefits. Also, when plastic bottles, like plastic water bottles, are washed or exposed to heat, BPA chemicals leach into the water, making their way into the body from the contaminated water.





How can you minimize BPA exposure?





Decrease exposure. For example, plastic bottles have a recycling code at the bottom of the bottle that looks like a triangular arrow around a number. Avoid these numbers: 3, 6, and 7. Plastics with these numbers contain BPA.





Here are other tips to minimize Bisphenol A exposure.



  • Avoid canned foods. They often lack nutritional value and can have BPA leach into the food. Instead, use a glass container to store food. Note: glass containers do not contain BPA chemicals, but tops used to close glass containers do.
  • Avoid purchasing canned salmon or canned sardines in vinyl-lined cans containing BPA. Instead, we recommend contacting the manufacturers of these products to find out which ones use BPA-free cans. If you cannot find BPA-free cans, you may consider purchasing the fish in another (non-canned) form.
  • Don't microwave food or drinks in plastic containers—even if they claim to be "microwave safe." Heat can break down plastics and release chemical additives into food and beverages. In addition, microwaves heat unevenly, creating hot spots where the plastic is more likely to break down.
  • Don't use plastic containers for hot liquids—only cool liquids, if at all.
  • Don’t leave water in plastic bottles in your car on hot summer days.
  • Bring your own mug for coffee to the office and your coffee shop and use that instead.
  • Bring drinking water from home in glass water bottles instead of buying bottled water.
  • Store foods in the freezer in glass mason jars, not plastic bags.
  • Use stainless steel or high-heat-resistant nylon for utensils in lieu of plastics.




My Closing Thoughts





Environmental toxins, like BPA, are unavoidable. They are in the food we eat, the water we drink, the air we breathe, and many household items we use daily. Largely invisible, most go undetected and are harmless if exposure is limited. However, we can reduce exposure if you can detect where they are hidden. Lastly, nutritional and herbal support like Milk Thistle, glutathione, and broccoli extract helps the liver to rid the body of environmental toxins you are exposed to. Toxins that the liver (and kidneys) cannot properly filter out of your body can sometimes be expelled through sweating from rigorous physical exercise or saunas. At XY Wellness, we understand the importance of detoxification from environmental exposure, which is why physical exercise is one of the pillars of our program.

Dr. Oz: Take Vitamin D to Avoid Cancer, Diabetes

By Dr. Mehmet Oz and Dr. Mike Roizen, MDs

Tiger Woods won it in 2000, 2002, and 2008; Rory McIlroy won it in 2011; Jordan Spieth, in 2015.

But what did these three have in common at the 2018 U.S. Open? This triple threat didn't even make the cut.

It's tough to see a triple threat like these guys booted out of the Open. But some triple threats need to be kicked to the sidelines.

And that's what the mighty vitamin D may help do to breast cancer, colon cancer, and diabetes.

Special: Doctor: All Multivitamins Are Not the Same

A study from UC San Diego School of Medicine found that women over age 55 with higher levels of vitamin D — above 60 nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL) — had one-fifth the risk of breast cancer as those with less than the recommended levels (20-50 ng/mL).

Another study, the largest of its kind, from the American Cancer Society, the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, and the National Cancer Institute, found that lower levels of vitamin D are linked to colorectal cancer risk. Below current guidelines, a 31% increase in risk; above the guidelines, a 22% reduction in risk.

Finally, a third study from UC San Diego School of Medicine and Seoul National University found that people with blood levels of vitamin D above 30 ng/mL had one-third of the risk of diabetes, and those with levels above 50 ng/mL had one-fifth the risk.

So get a blood test to measure your D level, and if it's low, ask your doctor how to bring it up to 60 ng/mL or better with diet and supplements.

Common Symptoms of a Heart Attack

By Chauncey Crandall, M.D.

Numerous studies have confirmed that most heart attack deaths occur within the first few hours of symptoms developing. Therefore, it is crucial to understand what kind of symptoms might indicate you’re having a heart attack. The most common symptoms include:

Chest pain
Shortness of breath
Indigestion, heartburn, or a choking feeling
Nausea or vomiting

Special: Dr. Crandall Saved His Own Heart With This

These are less common but also important symptoms:

Discomfort that spreads to the shoulders, arm, back, neck, or jaw
Rapid or irregular heartbeat
Dizziness, weakness, or lightheadedness
Anxiety or a feeling of doom
Passing out

Women can experience chest pain or pressure as their primary complaint, but they more often experience things like nausea and vomiting.

Some of these symptoms may indicate a less-serious condition, such as a respiratory infection or the flu. But if you already have heart disease or risk factors for it, don’t attempt to make this diagnosis yourself. Get help.

International Study Reveals Glyphosate Weedkillers Cause Multiple Types of Cancer​

A comprehensive carcinogenicity study on the world’s most used herbicide, glyphosate, involving scientists from Europe and the US, has found that low doses of the controversial weedkiller cause multiple types of cancer in rats.

In this long-term study, published this month, glyphosate alone and two commercial glyphosate-based formulations, were administered to rats via drinking water beginning in prenatal life, at doses of 0.5, 5, and 50 mg/kg body weight/day for 2 years. These doses are currently considered safe by regulatory agencies. In all three treatment groups of the study, increased incidences of benign and malignant tumors at multiple anatomic sites were observed compared to controls.

Early onset and early mortality for a number of rare malignant cancers, including leukemia, liver, ovary and nervous system tumors were observed. The leukemia findings are especially strong and may provide important support for plaintiffs in court cases who allege that exposure to Roundup caused their non-Hodgkin lymphoma, another type of blood cancer.

More on this, as well as reactions to this pivotal study are found here.

GMOs Made with New Techniques Face Low Adoption Rates and Market Failure​

As political pressure mounts to deregulate gene-edited crops, a new report by the European Non-GMO Industry Association (ENGA) and the Non-GMO Project reveals a stark reality: New GMO crops created with newer genetic engineering techniques, such as CRISPR, ODM, TALEN, ZFN and RNAi, are failing to find growers and markets. Despite billions of dollars in investment and widespread deregulation, only three new gene-edited GMOs are currently in cultivation, and none of them meaningfully advance climate or sustainability goals. The report indicates that 49 more crops are in development.

The findings dismantle the narrative that New GMOs are essential to feeding a growing population or combating the climate crisis. In fact, the evidence suggests that their real-world impact remains negligible, and two early new crops have already been withdrawn from the market due to commercial failure.

“Despite the hype, the evidence from our report is overwhelming: New GMOs are only a promise and are far from a reality on the market,” said ENGA Secretary General, Heike Moldenhauer. “Furthermore, despite widespread claims, not a single New GMO currently on the market delivers on sustainability promises, one of the main reasons their proponents are pushing to deregulate them.” Continue reading here for more details on the report's findings.

Female Reproductive Health Adversely Affected by Glyphosate, Research Finds​

A recent study published in Reproductive Sciences found that exposure to glyphosate, a widely used herbicide and the active ingredient in Roundup, can cause damage to female fertility and reproductive health. The researchers advocate for a broader understanding of the risks glyphosate poses to human health to better shape public policy, and suggest finding less harmful alternatives.

Though the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) considers glyphosate safe, studies have suggested its neurotoxicity and carcinogenicity. Now researchers are finding correlations between glyphosate exposure and harm to the female reproductive system. The toxic herbicide acts as an endocrine disruptor, interfering with hormones in a way that impacts uterine structure, ovarian function, embryo implantation, and fetal development. Learn more here.

Center for Food Safety Denounces Industry-backed Efforts to Undermine Pesticide Protections​

Through policy advocacy and grassroots campaigning, Center for Food Safety (CFS) is fighting back against a coordinated, industry backed campaign threatening decades of hard won protections from pesticide exposure through simultaneous efforts at both state and federal levels. In early June, CFS submitted expert policy comments alongside over 10,000 comments from their members asking the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to deny a rule-making petition with disastrous implications for pesticide regulations nationwide.

CFS and other organizations are opposing these efforts to severely restrict states’ longstanding authority to implement stronger pesticide warnings than allowed for under federal standards, thereby shielding pesticide manufacturers from liability when people are harmed by their products.

“This multi-pronged attack represents one of the most serious threats to public health protections from pesticides we’ve seen in decades,” said Amy van Saun, senior attorney at CFS. “If successful, these efforts would not only prevent states from warning residents about pesticide dangers, but would also block victims of pesticide exposure from seeking justice.” Learn more about the pesticide industry's campaign here.

Salads are the perfect Summer food.

But what if your salad dressings are quietly working against you?

Many store-bought dressings – even the “healthy” ones – are loaded with concerning ingredients that sound more like they belong in a science lab than your kitchen.

I’m talking about:

❌ A whitening agent used in paint and sunscreen – secretly added to creamy dressings to make them look “healthier,” but linked to gut and DNA damage.

❌ Synthetic dyes made from petroleum byproducts – banned in Europe but still used here, despite their ties to mood swings, brain fog, and attention issues.

❌ Sweet traps – with sneaky names and “sugar-free” promises, these additives can disrupt your hormones, spike your cravings, and mess with your metabolism.

❌ Flavor bombs, like MSG and preservative cocktails – designed to make you overeat, but also connected to migraines, anxiety, and long-term inflammation.

Don’t worry. I’ve got you covered.

In my latest blog post, I break down what to watch out for in salad dressings and how to make your own –

– plus 5 delicious, nourishing dressing recipes (including my family’s all-time favorite!).

Your salad deserves better. So does your body.​
To your radiant health all Summer long,​

You CAN take control of your life, your health, and your happiness... It starts with homegrown, nutrient-dense food!
How can you tell how fresh and healthy grocery store produce actually is?
All fruits and vegetables start losing precious nutrients as soon as they’re picked! And for some crops, you can be eating them weeks or even months later.
For example, did you know that most grocery store carrots are 1 to 9 months old depending on when you buy them?
Cold storage does help fresh vegetables last longer. But chemical coatings, gasses, waxes, and soy-based proteins are also used to keep produce from spoiling on the long trip from the farm to your table.
And they aren’t very good for your immune system either.
The true solution to better health and better food is right in your backyard… It's gardening!
When you plant a garden, you aren’t just growing your own food. You’re planting seeds of hope.
Hope for a healthier body with less pain and more energy.
Hope that you can feed your family and rely less on the grocery store.
Hope that you’re healing the planet for your kids and grandkids.
We call them seeds of hope because gardening gives you real, solid proof that you’re taking a step forward to claim your health and independence.
Which is why we’d like to invite you to an event hosted by our good friends at Grow Your Own Vegetables.
Next week, they are hosting the 9th Annual Superfood Garden Summit.​
--->>Claim your spot at the complimentary online Superfood Garden Summit

Over the course of my career, I’ve seen countless clients struggle with symptoms their doctors couldn’t explain—crippling fatigue, brain fog, hormone disruption, unexplained rashes, autoimmune flare-ups, and even early cognitive decline.
In many cases, they’d been to doctor after doctor—only to be told their labs were fine, or worse, that it was all in their head.
But in reality, something far more insidious was at play.
Toxic mold exposure is one of the most overlooked, misdiagnosed, and devastating health threats we face today. And I believe it is one of the greatest epidemics of our time.
This isn’t just clinical—it’s personal. Mold made my entire family sick and forced us to leave the home we loved. What we experienced firsthand, and what I’ve since uncovered through years of research and clinical experience, is something every family deserves to know.
Tonight, I’ll be sharing the truth about mold illness—how it breaks down the immune system, disrupts brain and hormone function, damages the gut, and often mimics or drives other serious conditions. Most importantly, I’ll explain what you can do about it.
Whether you live in military housing, college dorms, a brand-new build, or an older home, mold can hide in plain sight—and most people have no idea they’ve been exposed.
This is Part 1 of a multi-part series on mold illness, and I can promise you this: it’s one of the most important conversations I’ve ever had.

Hi Jimi,
Grilling season is here, and nothing says summer like food on a stick.
But traditional kebabs are often loaded with meat — and the cancer-causing compounds that come with it.
Luckily, you can skip all that (and still steal the show at your next cookout) with colorful, plant-powered kebabs.
But which fruits and veggies hold up best on a skewer? Can tofu, tempeh, or seitan stand up to the heat? And how do you make sure everything’s cooked evenly and packed with flavor?
Here’s what you need to know about healthy and delicious vegan skewers and kebabs.
Yours for joyful eating,
Ocean Robbins
P.S. What’s one food you’ve never thought of kebabing? Get inspired (and hungry) right here.

Ever notice how worry has this sneaky way of hijacking your entire day?

You start thinking about one little thing that might go wrong, and before you know it, your brain has written a full disaster movie script.

Here's what's happening: your mind is doing exactly what it's designed to do - trying to keep you safe by imagining every possible threat.

The problem is, most of these threats aren't real. They're just your mind playing old movies from the past or creating scary stories about the future.

But here's the good news - you can interrupt this pattern using a simple self-hypnosis technique.

The "Reset" Technique:

Next time you catch yourself spiraling into worry, try this:

  1. Stop and breathe deeply - Take 3 slow, deep breaths through your nose

  2. Look up - Literally look up toward the ceiling while keeping your eyes open. This naturally shifts your brain into a more relaxed state

  3. Ask yourself: "Is this thought helping me solve something right now, or is it just making me feel worse?"

  4. If it's not helpful, simply acknowledge it: "This is just my mind trying to protect me, but I don't need this worry right now."

  5. Replace it with something concrete: "What's one small thing I can actually do about this situation today?"
The magic isn't in the technique itself - it's in the fact that you're taking conscious control of your mind instead of letting it run wild.

Remember: you're not trying to never worry again (that's impossible). You're just practicing being the director of your own mental movie instead of a helpless audience member.

Try this today and notice how it feels to have that power back.

On Friday, I'll share how to use your mind's natural programming to overcome that frustrating feeling of being "stuck" or unmotivated.
