Why PANS/PANDAS Treatment Fails—And What Actually Works

Homeopathy is often misunderstood, but could it be the key to addressing immune dysfunction at its core? In this episode of the Demystifying PANS/PANDAS Podcast, Dr. Jennifer Bahr joins me to explore how homeopathy goes beyond symptom suppression to address the deeper susceptibility behind conditions like PANS and PANDAS.

PANS and PANDAS are more than just infections—they’re a sign of immune system dysfunction. In this episode of the Demystifying PANS/PANDAS Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Jennifer Bahr to explain why children with these conditions experience such extreme neuropsychiatric reactions to common triggers like strep, mold, and viruses. We break down the core concept of susceptibility, showing how homeopathy helps address the root cause rather than just managing symptoms.

Dr. Bahr also discusses how homeopathy differs from conventional and functional medicine, explaining why it works uniquely to retrain the immune system rather than relying on ongoing medication or supplements. She shares insights into how parents can navigate complex cases, avoid common treatment pitfalls, and take a more holistic, sustainable approach to healing. If you’re looking for a way to move beyond the merry-go-round of symptom management, this episode is a must-listen.
