  • 407: When A Penicillin Drug Allergy (Or Allergic To Other Meds) Goes Away: How To Figure This Out w/ Dr. Mariana Castells
    Dec 18 2025

    If you’ve got a penicillin allergy, this episode is crucial for you! That’s because you can outgrow a drug allergy like this even if you developed it as an adult. Antibiotic allergies are either misdiagnosed or fade over time. Even if you avoid taking antibiotics like the plague, having a drug allergy on your medical chart can end up limiting treatment options if you find yourself truly needing them.

    In this episode, my guest, Dr. Mariana Castells, breaks down how drug allergies are diagnosed, how long they take to disappear, why they can appear later in life, and how “drug delabeling” could dramatically improve your care (especially when something serious happens). Dr. Mariana Castells, M.D., Ph.D., is a world-renowned expert in allergy and immunology with over 30 years of experience.

    Whether you have an antibiotic allergy (or you know someone who does), this is a must-listen interview!

  • 406: Histamine Intolerance Symptoms: Everything You Know Is Wrong (And Why A Low Histamine Diet Won’t Stop Chronic Hives)
    Dec 4 2025

    Do you feel like you get crazy histamine intolerance symptoms as your body reacts to everything — certain foods, smells, stress, or even the weather? Symptoms such as itchy skin, rashes, dermatographia, angioedema, bloating, or headaches that seem to appear out of nowhere are often linked to histamine intolerance.

    But before you blame your diet and dive headfirst into a low-histamine diet, know that food isn’t likely to blame. After working with over 1,000 clients, I can tell you that there are deeper, more pressing issues that drive urticaria and chronic hives.

    Let’s dive into why you probably don’t have histamine intolerance (despite having all the symptoms), how histamine intolerance differs from MCAS, and what’s really triggering these crazy histamine reactions. From mold exposure to liver detox issues and hormone imbalances, we explore how these hidden factors can lead to ongoing inflammation and itchy skin that just won't quit.

  • 405: Staph aureus + Eczema: Why This Inflammatory Bacteria Is A Problem You Shouldn’t Ignore (Especially When Your Skin Flares) w/ Dr. Peter Lio
    Nov 20 2025

    Is it just an eczema (atopic dermatitis) flare or could it be something else? Most people don’t realize that Staph aureus could be the hidden skin flare trigger that actively weakens your skin barrier, triggering more inflammation, itchiness, and persistent eczema symptoms. Even if it seems “normal,” the presence of Staph might point to deeper imbalances that need attention.

    In this episode, we dig into how Staph aureus, the gut microbiome, environmental toxins, and even air pollution can all contribute to recurring eczema.

    Joining me is Dr. Peter Lio, a board-certified dermatologist and respected voice in integrative dermatology. He’s a Clinical Assistant Professor at Northwestern University and has authored over 100 papers, along with a textbook on Integrative Dermatology.

    If you’re ready to understand why your eczema isn’t clearing up, this is a must-listen conversation filled with insight and practical takeaways.
