In this eye-opening episode of Truly Healthy MD, I’m joined by Dr. Pejman Katiraei, an integrative pediatrician who has helped countless families uncover the real reasons behind anxiety, ADHD, learning difficulties, and autism.
We dive into why so many children and adults are living with brain inflammation—often without even knowing it—and how conventional medicine tends to focus only on diagnosing and medicating symptoms rather than asking why these symptoms are happening in the first place.
Dr. Katiraei explains the powerful impact of mold and mycotoxins—hidden toxins that can disrupt the gut, overwhelm the immune system, and rewire the brain’s perception of fear and safety. You’ll hear about the critical connection between gut health and neurological symptoms, practical strategies to identify mold exposure, and hopeful stories of transformation when the true root causes are addressed.
If you’ve ever felt that something deeper is being missed in your or your child’s health journey, this conversation will empower you with knowledge and a path forward.

In this conversation, I sit down with Dr. Pejman Katiraei to discuss why so many children and adults today are experiencing anxiety, ADHD, sensory sensitivities, and learning difficulties—and why our current healthcare system often misses the bigger picture.
We explore how mold exposure and chronic brain inflammation can distort fear responses, disrupt sleep and appetite, and create neurological symptoms that are frequently misdiagnosed or medicated without addressing their true cause. Dr. Katiraei shares practical insights on how to identify hidden triggers, support gut healing, and begin a journey toward transformative recovery.
If you’ve felt that conventional approaches haven’t gotten to the root of what’s happening in your family’s health, this episode offers clarity, hope, and next steps.

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life.
