There are a variety of healthcare articles, videos, podcasts and a newsletter. == Podcasts == === PACE trial === *Oct, 2016: [http://drhoffman.com/podcast/part-1-a-flawed-study-on-chronic-fatigue-syndrome/ A Flawed Study on Chronic Fatigue Syndrome; Patients Fight Back] :This 20 min. podcast reviews the [[PACE trial]]'s [[outcome switching]], Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) denial and money trail, and conflict of interest (COI) problems based on articles by [[Julie Rehmeyer]] in ''SLATE'' and [[David Tuller]] in [[Virology blog]]. === Interview with Julie Rehmeyer === *May, 2017: [http://drhoffman.com/podcast/an-odyssey-through-a-mysterious-illness-part-1/ An Odyssey Through a Mysterious Illness, Part 1] :"In her new book, "[[Through the Shadowlands: A Science Writer's Odyssey into an Illness Science Doesn't Understand|Through the Shadowlands]]," science journalist Julie Rehmeyer chronicles her odyssey through a mysterious illness. After encountering debilitating fatigue, Rehmeyer got no answers from medical doctors other than a diagnosis of CFS--[[Chronic fatigue syndrome|Chronic Fatigue Syndrome]]. Even the slightest [[exertion]] prompted [[Post-exertional malaise|severe exacerbations]]. After one particularly incapacitating bout, she undertook an extreme measure--a desert retreat to Death Valley. There she discovered that one component of her illness was mold sensitivity. Rehmeyer describes how volatile gasses emitted by molds can cripple the [[Nervous system|nervous systems]] of susceptible individuals. She emphasizes that there's no "one-size-fits-all" solution to CFS; different patients respond to different measures like diet, supplements, hormonal support, or [[immunomodulator]]s. Rehmeyer has become a vocal advocate for CFS research, and briefs us on the latest advances. She also offers a critique of a much-maligned study--[[PACE trial|PACE]]--which concludes that CFS patients just need [[exercise]] and [[cognitive behavioral therapy]] to recover."<ref>[https://www.apple.com/itunes/download/?id=663864861 An Odyssey Through a Mysterious Illness, Part 1]</ref> *May, 2017: [http://drhoffman.com/podcast/an-odyssey-through-a-mysterious-illness-part-2/ An Odyssey Through a Mysterious Illness, Part 2] :"Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with science journalist [[Julie Rehmeyer]], author of "[[Through the Shadowlands: A Science Writer's Odyssey into an Illness Science Doesn't Understand]]", who chronicles her odyssey through a mysterious illness".<ref>[https://www.apple.com/itunes/download/?id=663864861 An Odyssey Through a Mysterious Illness, Part 2]</ref> == Online presence == *[https://twitter.com/DrRonaldHoffman Twitter - Dr. Ronald Hoffman] *[https://twitter.com/DrRonaldHoffman Facebook - Dr. Ronald Hoffman] *[http://www.stitcher.com/podcast/warren-eckstein/intelligent-medicine?refid=stpr Stitcher Podcast] *[http://drhoffman.com/podcast/feed/intelligent-medicine/ Subscribe Podcasts] *[https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/introducing-intelligent-medicine/id663864861?mt=2 iTunes] == References == [[Category:Blogs]] {{Reflist}} [[Category:Podcasts]]
