エピソード
  • Ep. 239 - What Is POTS and Why Are Cases Exploding After COVID and MCAS?
    2026/09/01
    Cardiologist Dr. Alexis Cutchins joins Dr. Dean Mitchell to break down POTS, postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, a condition defined by a heart rate increase of more than 30 beats per minute when moving from lying down to standing, without a drop in blood pressure. Dr. Cutchins explains that POTS is not a single diagnosis but one symptom within a larger picture that frequently overlaps with mast cell activation syndrome, hypermobility, and Ehlers-Danlos syndrome.

    The conversation covers what may be driving the condition, including an autoimmune component, small fiber neuropathy, and vascular compression syndromes such as jugular vein compression and pelvic venous congestion. Dr. Cutchins shares findings from her own published research showing that 83% of her POTS patients had iliac vein compression on imaging, and that stenting the iliac vein helped 70% of patients with orthostatic intolerance. She and Dr. Mitchell also discuss why COVID-19 and long COVID have driven a sharp rise in cases, alongside other triggers like viral infections, Lyme disease, bariatric surgery, and major life stressors.

    Dr. Cutchins walks through how she evaluates patients, including holter monitoring, echocardiograms, and a 10 minute stand test rather than the tilt table test, which she says can worsen symptoms. She outlines her treatment approach, starting with antihistamines, salt, fluids, and compression, then medications like nadolol, propranolol, ivabradine, calcium channel blockers, fludrocortisone, desmopressin, midodrine, and droxidopa depending on the patient. She also covers which forms of exercise, like swimming, recumbent biking, and strength training, tend to be best tolerated.

  • Ep. 238 - Why Feeling Safe Is the First Step to Healing Chronic Stress
    2026/08/25
    Psychiatrist and neuroscientist Dr. Dave Rabin returns to the podcast to discuss his new book, A Simple Guide to Being Alive, and why he believes healing from chronic stress and illness is simpler than most people are taught. Dr. Rabin explains that the autonomic nervous system, specifically the balance between the fight or flight sympathetic response and the rest and digest vagus nerve system, sits at the core of how the body handles stress, illness, and recovery, and that most patients are never taught the basics of how these systems work.

    Dr. Rabin and Dr. Mitchell talk through why techniques like deep breathing, meditation, and mindfulness work, tracing the idea back to teachings from Jon Kabat-Zinn. Dr. Rabin describes how breathing at five to seven breaths per minute helps the body access a calm, present state, and how his company Apollo Neuroscience developed a wearable device that uses touch based vibration, rather than sound, to raise heart rate variability and vagal tone within two to three minutes, based on research conducted at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center.

    The conversation turns to why Gen Z is showing declines on standardized cognitive testing, and how chronic nervous system stress, screen time, and a lack of in person mentorship may be contributing factors. Dr. Rabin also shares his approach to helping children work through tantrums and difficult emotions, why parents model stress responses for their kids whether they realize it or not, and why physical touch and safe human connection remain central to healing, even as modern medicine has grown more cautious about it.

  • Health Tip Of The Week
    2026/08/21
    Simple daily breathwork can meaningfully calm your stress response, Dr. Dean Mitchell explains in this week's tip. A few minutes of slow, deep abdominal breathing tops the list, since most of us breathe shallowly under stress in ways that quietly affect the heart, lungs, and oxygen levels. One striking example: just five minutes a day of basic breathing exercises, easily learned from free videos online, can have a profound effect on overall health. The key is making it a daily habit rather than a one-off fix, then noticing how much steadier you feel handling everyday stress. You can't stop the waves, but you can learn to surf.

    For the full conversation, listen to Ep. 238 with Dr. Dave Rabin on The Smartest Doctor in the Room.
