In this episode of the My POTS Podcast, host Dr. Joseph Schneider reveals the hidden barrier systems throughout your body that protect your brain from toxins, pathogens, and inflammation, and why most people don't realize these barriers are leaking. Your gut, skin, sinuses, and lungs all function as critical defense systems, but when compromised, they trigger an inflammatory cascade that reaches your brain and creates the neurological dysfunction behind POTS, dysautonomia, and degenerative diseases. Traditional medicine treats individual symptoms without recognizing that leaky gut, skin reactions, and respiratory issues all feed inflammation directly into your brain through a compromised blood-brain barrier. Dr. Schneider explains how food particles, environmental toxins, and pathogens slip through damaged barriers to create the chronic brain inflammation measured on his clinic's brain wave testing. He shares why every degenerative disease from Alzheimer's to Parkinson's involves this barrier breakdown and reveals a simple at-home therapy using hydrogen inhalation that he personally uses daily after surviving three concussions and a stroke. This episode connects the dots between your digestive issues, skin problems, and brain fog that conventional doctors miss, showing how protecting your body's barrier systems is the key to preventing neurological decline.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
