NAD+ Gets the Headlines. Is NADH the Form Your Cells Actually Use?
NAD+ and NADH are not the same thing. Claire's central point is that NAD+ is the oxidized form your body still has to work with, while NADH is the reduced, electron-carrying form involved in making cellular energy. Understanding that distinction is the frame for the whole conversation. How you deliver it changes the experience. BioBloom offers NADH as an intramuscular injection, a subcutaneous microdose, and a wrist patch. Claire contrasts that with the long chair time of a traditional NAD+ IV, which is also why she sees a practice-throughput angle for clinics. This is an early, practitioner-guided space. Claire is candid that she came to this as a founder, not a physician, and that BioBloom sells through a clinician portal. The useful move for a listener is to bring the questions raised here to a practitioner who can look at your individual picture.
The Biology of Resilience and Nervous System Regulation
Understand how chronic stress can keep your nervous system in survival mode, interfering with planning, decision-making, creativity, and your ability to follow through on healthy intentions. Discover why both childhood trauma and adverse adult experiences may continue shaping your biology, identity, stress responses, and long-term health. Learn how to choose nervous-system practices that fit your current state, including extended-exhale breathing and gentle movement when you need calm rather than additional stimulation.
Back to School, Back to Flares? What Your Child’s Skin and Focus May Be Telling You with Dana Kay
The trash can fills up long before the symptoms show up: Dana explains toxic load as a trash can every child is born with. Diet, environmental toxins and bacteria go in, and kids with compromised detox pathways cannot get it emptied, so it overflows into the body as inflammation. Why the gut has so much to say about mood and focus: Dana points to the gut as the site of most of the body's serotonin and a large share of its dopamine, which is why emotional dysregulation so often starts below the neck rather than in the frontal lobe everyone is trying to fix. ADHD is meant to be a diagnosis of exclusion: Dana walks through what that actually means, what she sees on organic acid, stool and pyrrole testing instead, and why a daily meltdown is a signal from the body worth investigating before it becomes a label.
Are Psychedelics Really Safe No Matter What?
Why the scariest-sounding risk may be the wrong one to fear: serotonin syndrome is often overstated, and the real concern appears concentrated where MAOIs meet other serotonergic agents (think SSRIs plus ayahuasca), not in a single psilocybin or MDMA session. Kelan frames combining these as a caution to take seriously with a clinician, never a green light. Understand where the genuine open questions still live: daily, long-term microdosing is understudied, and a receptor signal (5-HT2B affinity, linked in some research to heart-valve changes) is an unanswered safety question, not a settled finding. As Kelan puts it, "if you're not looking for something, you'll never find it." Consider how much of the outcome sits outside the molecule: the length of the subjective experience seems to track the length of the benefit, and rapport with the clinician, set, and setting may shape results as much as the compound itself. Pharmacology is real, and it's also not the whole story.
Mast Cells Explained: Your Body’s Overactive Alarm System
Discover how mast cells act like security guards throughout the body, responding to possible threats in the skin, gut, lungs, blood vessels, brain, and nervous system. Understand how histamine and other mast cell mediators may contribute to symptoms such as hives, flushing, reflux, diarrhea, insomnia, anxiety, palpitations, congestion, and brain fog. Learn why long-term healing requires identifying what keeps the immune system on high alert rather than only suppressing symptoms with medications or restrictive diets.
How Doctors Can Buy, Scale, and Sell a Multi-Location Medical Practice
Discover why buying into or acquiring a medical practice requires more than clinical skill, including advisors, valuation knowledge, financing, and negotiation support. Understand how medical practices are often valued through adjusted EBITDA, multiples, growth potential, modernization, and how long the selling doctor stays involved. Learn why scaling a practice requires operational systems, strong service lines, humility, team structure, and a willingness to think beyond traditional clinical work.
Cell Danger Response Through the Lens of Chinese Medicine
Discover how the Traditional Chinese Medicine concept of Qi parallels modern ideas about cellular bioenergetics, mitochondrial function, and ATP production, helping explain why chronic illness can leave you profoundly depleted. Understand why the body's protective Wei Qi response can become stuck on high alert after infection, toxins, trauma, or prolonged stress, contributing to chronic inflammation, fatigue, poor sleep, pain, and nervous system dysregulation. Learn why recovery may require more than continuing to fight the original threat, and how supporting mitochondrial function, digestion, nervous system regulation, nutrient status, and the body's ability to recognize safety may help restore healthy function.
Phospholipids, Plasmalogens, and Cellular Restoration
Discover why phospholipids and plasmalogens are essential for cell membranes, organ function, brain health, and whole-body resilience. Understand how toxins, mold, inflammation, poor nutrition, and environmental exposures may damage cell membranes and mitochondrial function. Learn why testing, targeted lipid support, detoxification, and preconception care may help restore cellular structure and long-term health.
Megan’s Testimonial
She couldn't eat a meal without fear. 😔 Megan was a nurse, a volleyball player, a person with a whole life ahead of her. But ulcerative colitis had a different plan. Her reality every single day: 🔸 4 to 8 urgent bathroom trips 🔸 Mucus, diarrhea, undigested food 🔸 Constant bloating, cramping, painful gas 🔸 Skin breaking out constantly 🔸 Running on 6/10 energy 🔸 Dependent on Prednisone just to function She didn't want to just manage it. She wanted her life back. 💪 So we stopped chasing symptoms and started finding root causes through the S.H.I.E.L.D. Program. And everything shifted. ✅ 2 to 3 normal BMs daily ✅ Zero urgency, zero mucus, zero diarrhea ✅ Bloating and cramping gone ✅ Skin cleared up ✅ Energy at 9/10 ✅ Completely off medication If you're tired of being told to "just manage it" and you're ready to actually get to the root of what's driving your IBD, this is for you. 👇 Click the link below and we'll connect you with one of our IBD Support Specialists for a FREE strategy session. https://www.cclworkshop.com/apply/?el=src-yt #autoimmune #Crohnsdisease #Ulcerativecolitis #guthealth #IBDrecovery
