1025 - Why Antifungal Treatment Fails (And What to Do Instead)
Episode 587
Show notes
In this episode, Dr. Ruscio and Dr. Scott Spiridigliozzi break down why mold and fungal treatments often failโand what may improve the odds of success. They discuss how to get clearer on the diagnosis, why herbal therapies may not be enough for some patients, the importance of reaching therapeutic antifungal levels, why underdosing can backfire, and how targeting the right tissues may help prevent relapse. They also share insights from their own experiences with chronic fungal illness and how those lessons are shaping their evolving treatment approach.

Episode 585
Show notes
๐ Full Mold Checklist & Resources Guide (Free Download) : https://drruscio.com/guides/get-home-mold-guide/
Could hidden fungus or mold exposure be driving recurring gut symptoms? In this episode, Dr. Scott Spiridigliozzi interviews Dr. Pejman Katiraei about a novel "backdoor" mechanism through which inhaled fungal toxins may reach the gut through the bloodstream, disrupt the microbiome, increase intestinal permeability, and contribute to persistent symptoms such as bloating, food reactions, fatigue, brain fog, and anxiety.
They also discuss how to identify possible fungal or environmental triggers and the practical steps that may help restore gut health and reduce symptoms.

Parasites are an often-overlooked factor in chronic gut symptoms, food intolerance, histamine-type reactions, fatigue, and cases where patients feel stuck despite addressing SIBO, Candida, or other common gut imbalances. In this episode, Dr. Ruscio, Dr. Jake Vonfeldt, and Dr. Scott Spiridigliozzi discuss common parasites like Giardia, Cryptosporidium, Blastocystis, pinworms, and helminths, why standard testing can miss them, and how clinical history can help determine when parasites deserve closer consideration. They also share both natural and pharmaceutical parasite protocols, along with practical guidance on when each approach may be appropriate.

1021 - The Surprising Gut + Energy Benefits of NAC (N-Acetylcysteine)
Episode 583
Show notes
In this episode, Dr. Ruscio breaks down the surprising gut and systemic benefits of NAC (N-acetylcysteine), including how it may help break down biofilms, support SIBO and H. pylori treatment, improve gut lining repair, boost nutrient absorption, and support glutathione, mitochondria, and brain health. You'll also learn when sustained-release NAC may be useful, how to dose NAC properly, and what side effects or cautions to keep in mind.

1020 - This New Histamine Treatment Helped 89% of Patients
Episode 582
Show notes
New research suggests that low-dose peptide therapy may help calm histamine-driven inflammation and mast cell activation in people with stubborn symptoms like food reactions, brain fog, fatigue, flushing, itching, hives, bloating, and digestive distress. In this episode, Dr. Ruscio explains how the gut, histamine, and mast cells are connected, what the latest human research shows, and why this approach may help some patients who haven't fully responded to diets, supplements, or other natural therapies.

1018 - 8 Butyrate Benefits: Supplement Guide + How to Raise It Naturally
Episode 580
Show notes
In this video, Dr. Ruscio discusses 8 benefits of taking butyrate, a fat molecule with gut and systemic healing properties. Butyrate is produced by gut bacteria, but it is often low in different chronic health conditions. Supplementation has been shown to improve a variety of gut conditions, including IBS, IBD, and SIBO, as well as chronic inflammation and brain health. Doctor Ruscio also discusses some simple dietary strategies to increase butyrate production naturally.
