120. Connecting Biotoxin Illness (Lyme Disease) to Nervous System Dysfunction & Dysautonomia: Addressing the Infection & Harnessing the Power of Phospholipids to Support Repair

In today's episode, we explore the connection between biotoxin illness (including Lyme disease) and dysautonomia, as well as nervous system dysfunction, in general. And, we outline strategies for supporting nervous system repair through addressing the root cause and using strategic phospholipid support. Topics: 1. Introduction to the Nervous System - Overview - Central Nervous System (CNS): Brain and Spinal Cord - Peripheral Nervous System (PNS): Connection to CNS, Transmission of Sensory Information and Motor Commands, Involuntary Functions 2. Divisions of the Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) - Somatic Nervous System (SNS): Voluntary Control, Sensory (Afferent) Neurons (Function and Examples), Motor (Efferent) Neurons (Function and Examples) - Autonomic Nervous System (ANS): Involuntary Physiological Functions, Maintenance of Homeostasis 3. Subdivisions of the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) - Sympathetic Nervous System (SNS): 'Fight or Flight' Response - Parasympathetic Nervous System (PNS): 'Rest and Digest' Response - Enteric Nervous System (ENS): Regulation of Gastrointestinal (GI) Tract 4. Dysfunction of the Autonomic Nervous System: Dysautonomia - Definition and Symptoms - POTS - Some Causes: Infections (e.g., Lyme Disease), Biotoxin Illness, Other Contributing Factors 5. Mechanisms of Nerve Damage in Lyme Disease - Direct Bacterial Invasion - Inflammation and Cytokine Storm - Out of Control Autoimmune Reactions 6. Impact of Lyme Disease on the Nervous System - Cardiac Vagal Tone Impairment - Dendritic Pruning - Demyelination - Small-Fiber Neuropathy: Symptoms, Improvement with Antimicrobial Treatments 7. Supporting Nervous System Repair - Phospholipid Support: Phosphatidylcholines and Cell Membrane Integrity, Repairing Myelin Sheath, Recovery and Regrowth of Dendritic Structures - Benefits for CNS and PNS - Importance of Addressing Root Cause (Infection) and Repair Strategies Thanks for tuning in!
