Episode Details

You have tried the diet, the supplements and the medication, and you are still in the same chronic pattern. Dr. Ilana Gurevich says a nervous system that shuts down after surgery, injury, scars or chronic infection leaves a blind spot, and neural therapy is the attempt to bring that spot back online.

Dr. Gurevich is a naturopathic physician and a Fellow of the American Board of Naturopathic Gastroenterology with a GI practice in Portland. I asked her what procaine injections actually do, why she uses ozone for chronic inflammation, and when the elemental diet is worth it.

Key Insights:
✅ Chronic Symptoms May Signal Nerve Blind Spots
✅ Procaine May Reset a Nerve Bundle
✅ Ozone May Help Chronic GI Inflammation
✅ Elemental Diet May Match Steroids in Effectiveness
✅ IBD Patients Often Carry IBS Symptoms Too
✅ Fiber Trouble May Be a Cellulase Issue
