Summary

I am delighted to reconnect with Dr. Scott Sherr today. He is a board-certified internal medicine physician, a certified practitioner of health optimization medicine, and the COO of Troscriptions, a range of physician-formulated, pharmaceutical-grade, precision-dose supplements containing innovative ingredients like methylene blue, with formulas to support energy, focus, sleep, stress, immune health, and more. In our discussion, we delve into hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT), examining what it is, how it works, and its effects on cellular senescence. We discuss what HBOT is, its impact on immune function, inflammation, stem cell activation, and oxygen, as well as its anti-infective properties and relative contraindications for HBOT treatment modalities. We also explore epigenetics and DNA expression, the effects of methylene blue, the specific indications and neurocognitive benefits of HBOT therapy, and its critical importance for recovery from infections, radiation injuries, tissue regeneration, sudden hearing loss, osteomyelitis, and other conditions. This insightful conversation with Dr. Sherr is filled with vital information, so you will likely want to listen to it more than once. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: How does HBOT work? Dr. Sherr describes the acute and long-term physical effects of HBOT. How HBOT increases stem cells, reduces inflammation, and boosts the immune system. How HBOT can decrease senescent cell populations, increase telomere length, improve cardiac function, and stimulate blood vessel regrowth Why clinicians must assess the acuity and chronicity of a condition before recommending HBOT therapy The importance of improving diet and lifestyle to optimize the body for HBOT therapy The benefits of low-dose methylene blue for mitochondrial support How carbohydrates support workout performance and recovery Dr. Sherr explains the different levels of hyperbaric therapy and their benefits. Why individualized HBOT protocols must be based on the goals and conditions of each patient How HBOT can regenerate tissue and prevent amputations due to radiation injuries from cancer treatments Connect with Cynthia Thurlow Follow on Twitter Instagram LinkedIn Check out Cynthia’s website Submit your questions to [email protected] Connect with Dr. Scott Sherr Hyperbaric Medical Solutions Health Optimization Medicine and Practice Dr. Scott Sherr on Instagram Troscriptions One Base Health
