Chicken and Broccoli: How the Keto Diet Healed My Brain After 4 Traumas

After surviving four traumatic brain injuries including a windshield impact, drunk driver collision, tubing accident, and hemorrhagic stroke with an aneurysm rupture, Dr. Joseph Schneider discovered the ketogenic diet protocol that triggered autophagy and cleared the hemorrhagic scab from his brain in just four months. In this deeply personal episode of the My POTS Podcast, Dr. Schneider reveals how the Zone diet's 40-30-30 macro-nutrient balance at a 2005 Barry Sears seminar in Boston became his roadmap to neurological recovery after years of severe sleep apnea, dysautonomia, and dangerous blood pressure spikes following his 2004 accident. Dr. Schneider explains why pasture-raised meats provide optimal omega-3 fatty acid balance, how autophagy cleared brain debris conventional medicine said was permanent, and why Wharton's jelly stem cell therapy finally enabled daily exercise eight years post-stroke. He shares the comprehensive approach combining ketogenic nutrition, interactive metronome therapy, CPAP for sleep apnea management, and faith-based daily commitment that transformed him from barely functioning to running one of the world's premier brain injury recovery centers. This New Year episode challenges the glucose-dependent model of brain metabolism and offers hope for anyone told their brain damage is irreversible. To learn more about ketogenic diet protocols for brain injury recovery and comprehensive neurological rehabilitation, listen to the full episode on My POTS Podcast and visit HopeBrainCenter.com. Understanding how macro-nutrient balance and ketone metabolism support brain healing changes everything about recovery from traumatic brain injury and stroke.

Advanced AI Technology and Regeneration Therapy Transform Brain Recovery

Dr. Joseph Schneider announces the evolution of Hope Brain and Body Recovery Center into Hope Regeneration Center, featuring innovative additions including medical doctors, nurse practitioners, and cutting-edge regeneration therapies using Wharton's Jelly (Ethically collected) from Methodist Hospital in Texas. He reveals the upcoming installation of the Neuro AI system—an artificial intelligence-powered chair and goggle technology that provides precise analysis and treatment of eye movements, balance disorders, and neurological conditions. Fresh from training in Pittsburgh with leading neurologists, Dr. Schneider explains how this advanced system can immediately assess and treat saccades, smooth pursuit, convergence, and vestibular function with unprecedented accuracy. The episode explores how combining functional medicine with functional neurology creates comprehensive treatment protocols that address everything from autoimmunity and toxins to neuroplasticity and brain regeneration. Dr. Schneider emphasizes his philosophy of achieving complete recovery rather than lifelong case management, aiming for patients to reach 100-120% functionality. This announcement represents a major advancement in POTS, TBI, vertigo, and neurological rehabilitation technology.

How Voice Analysis and LED Light Therapy Support POTS, Dysautonomia and Brain Injury

Dr. Joseph Schneider and Michael McIntyre, Founder and CEO of ARRC LED, share how voice analysis and LED light therapy support patients with POTS, Dysautonomia and brain injury on the My POTS Podcast. They discuss a 35 second voice scan that captures around one million data points to create an acoustic health print, with research pointing to vocal biomarkers for PTSD, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, depression and Multiple Sclerosis. They also explore how Elysium light systems use quantum-informed frequencies based on each voice scan, and how this precision model compares with broad “hammer” approaches to brain stimulation. The conversation looks at PTSD as stored trauma in the field, media and environment as hidden drivers of dysregulation, and how true recovery must address both nervous system function and daily life context. Discover how voice analysis, LED light therapy and advanced neurotechnology can reshape your approach to POTS, Dysautonomia and brain injury recovery.

The Adjustment Revolution: Why Brain Recovery Can't Be Rush-Delivered

Dr. Joseph Schneider teams up with Dr. Adam Klotzek to challenge the "one-week miracle cure" mentality plaguing functional neurology today. They dissect why intensive treatment programs often fail patients with chronic fatigue, POTS, and post-concussion syndrome, revealing how these rushed approaches ignore the basic metabolic limitations of damaged nervous systems. Dr. Klotzek explains how proprioceptive input from spinal joints provides the foundation for all brain development, making chiropractic adjustments far more than just pain relief tools. The conversation takes a personal turn when Dr. Schneider shares his stroke recovery experience, including his ongoing battle with "floppy foot syndrome" and how it mirrors the joint instability seen in patients misdiagnosed with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. They explore the interconnected web of sensory, motor, and autonomic dysfunction that requires comprehensive treatment protocols rather than cookie-cutter solutions. Both doctors advocate for a return to thorough examination, gradual progression, and respect for each patient's unique metabolic capacity. The episode concludes with Dr. Schneider describing the remarkable growth spurts he witnesses in children with developmental disorders when their nervous systems finally receive proper support.
