The Neurological Revolution: Innovative Approaches to POTS & Complex Health Challenges

In this reunion episode, chiropractic classmates Dr. Joseph Schneider and Dr. Mark Sanna reflect on their educational journey before diving into the complex world of Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) treatment. Dr. Schneider explains how patients with POTS face cascading symptoms affecting multiple body systems, leaving them frustrated after visiting major medical institutions with six-month waiting lists and limited treatment approaches. The conversation highlights how functional neurology and brain scanning technologies can identify inflammation patterns in the brain, especially common in post-COVID patients. They discuss the importance of patient education and the value of giving patients all-inclusive information about their condition rather than oversimplifying. Dr. Schneider also shares his personal health journey that led him to open the Hope Regenerative Medicine Center, which integrates various disciplines including peptide therapies to address complex neurological conditions from POTS to cerebral palsy.

How Proper Breathing Can Transform POTS Recovery

Dive into the often-overlooked foundation of neurological recovery as Dr. Joseph Schneider reveals how breathing mechanics directly impact POTS symptoms. In this informative episode, Dr. Schneider breaks down the critical relationship between diaphragmatic breathing and your autonomic nervous system, explaining why many POTS patients struggle with improper breathing patterns that exacerbate their condition. Through clear explanations of the phrenic nerve pathway and medulla oblongata function, you'll gain a deeper understanding of why chest breathing leads to physical discomfort and autonomic dysfunction. Dr. Schneider introduces practical tools like HeartMath training and the Maffetone Method that can help recalibrate your respiratory rate and improve heart function. This episode offers tangible breathing techniques for anyone experiencing fatigue, anxiety, or digestive issues related to POTS - potentially the missing piece in your recovery journey.

Chicken and Broccoli: How the Keto Diet Healed My Brain After 4 Traumas

After surviving four traumatic brain injuries including a windshield impact, drunk driver collision, tubing accident, and hemorrhagic stroke with an aneurysm rupture, Dr. Joseph Schneider discovered the ketogenic diet protocol that triggered autophagy and cleared the hemorrhagic scab from his brain in just four months. In this deeply personal episode of the My POTS Podcast, Dr. Schneider reveals how the Zone diet's 40-30-30 macro-nutrient balance at a 2005 Barry Sears seminar in Boston became his roadmap to neurological recovery after years of severe sleep apnea, dysautonomia, and dangerous blood pressure spikes following his 2004 accident. Dr. Schneider explains why pasture-raised meats provide optimal omega-3 fatty acid balance, how autophagy cleared brain debris conventional medicine said was permanent, and why Wharton's jelly stem cell therapy finally enabled daily exercise eight years post-stroke. He shares the comprehensive approach combining ketogenic nutrition, interactive metronome therapy, CPAP for sleep apnea management, and faith-based daily commitment that transformed him from barely functioning to running one of the world's premier brain injury recovery centers. This New Year episode challenges the glucose-dependent model of brain metabolism and offers hope for anyone told their brain damage is irreversible. To learn more about ketogenic diet protocols for brain injury recovery and comprehensive neurological rehabilitation, listen to the full episode on My POTS Podcast and visit HopeBrainCenter.com. Understanding how macro-nutrient balance and ketone metabolism support brain healing changes everything about recovery from traumatic brain injury and stroke.

Autophagy and Sleep: How Your Brain Repairs Itself Overnight

In this episode, Dr. Joseph Schneider and Joseph Quirk dive into the vital connection between sleep and autophagy—the brain's natural cleanup system. Dr. Schneider shares his personal journey with stroke recovery, explaining how autophagy helped heal his damaged basal ganglion and thalamus. The hosts explore how proper sleep cycles activate the brain's maintenance mechanisms, allowing microglia to remove cellular damage while the default network resolves emotional stress. They discuss practical strategies for optimizing sleep—from maintaining consistent circadian rhythms to creating ideal sleeping environments—and reveal why shift workers often face significant health challenges. Through a success story of a patient who recovered from severe brain trauma, they illustrate how comprehensive treatment approaches focusing on sleep quality can restore not just work capacity but complete life satisfaction.
