    Rebuilding Intimacy: Why Sexual Rehabilitation Belongs in Modern Medicine with Prof. Rafi Heruti

    07/07/2026 | 1h 4 mins.
    Sexual health is often treated as an optional conversation in medicine - but according to Professor Rafi Heruti, it should be considered a pillar of overall health.
    Drawing from decades of experience in rehabilitation medicine, Professor Heruti explains how spinal cord injuries, stroke, trauma, chronic illness and ageing affect not only physical function but also identity, relationships and emotional wellbeing.
    Dr Ron Ehrlich and Professor Heruti discuss the biopsychosocial model of healthcare, highlighting the interconnected roles of biology, psychology and relationships in sexual wellbeing. They examine hormone health, cardiovascular disease, medications, mental health, lifestyle, ageing, communication and intimacy while challenging common misconceptions surrounding sexuality.
    The conversation also explores Professor Heruti's work in Paralympic sport, illustrating the extraordinary resilience and adaptability of the human spirit, before concluding with powerful reflections on living a healthier, more balanced life.
    ◉ 𝐀𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐆𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭:
    Professor Rafi (Raphael) Heruti is an internationally respected specialist in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, with particular expertise in sexual rehabilitation, spinal cord injury rehabilitation, neurological rehabilitation and disability medicine.
    He is affiliated with Tel Aviv University and has held senior leadership positions at rehabilitation hospitals in Israel, where he has pioneered multidisciplinary approaches to sexual rehabilitation following injury, trauma and chronic illness.
    Professor Heruti is also internationally recognised within the Paralympic Movement, serving as a medical classifier for Paralympic athletes and contributing extensively to disability sport worldwide.
    His work promotes a holistic biopsychosocial approach to rehabilitation that integrates physical recovery, psychological wellbeing and healthy relationships.

    Paradigm Shifts in Women’s Health and PCOS with Dr. Jim Parker

    23/06/2026 | 1h 7 mins.
    Dr. Ron Ehrlich welcomes back Associate Professor Dr. Jim Parker to explore emerging paradigm shifts in healthcare, focusing primarily on women's reproductive and metabolic health. Dr. Parker applies Thomas Kuhn’s cycle of scientific revolutions to modern medicine, explaining how traditional systems are failing by treating symptoms rather than maintaining optimal physiology.

    The conversation spans the evolutionary roots of PCOS, the critical impact of maternal lifestyle ("the soil") on pregnancy outcomes ("the seed"), and a call to action for measuring fasting insulin over glucose to combat the global metabolic health crisis.

    ◉ 𝐀𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐆𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭:
    Dr. Jim Parker is an obstetrician and gynecologist with over 30 to 40 years of clinical experience, having delivered thousands of babies and performed thousands of gynecological procedures. After stepping away from active clinical practice, he transitioned into research and academia. He currently serves as an academic and researcher at the University of Wollongong and has been a prominent lecturer at the Australasian College of Nutritional and Environmental Medicine (ACNEM). His work focuses on evolutionary models of disease, lifestyle medicine, and translational research.
    Featured Research Papers: Evolutionary Model of PCOS, Insulin-Centric Model of Metabolic Dysfunction

    ◉ 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗬𝗼𝘂’𝗹𝗹 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻 𝗶𝗻 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗘𝗽𝗶𝘀𝗼𝗱𝗲
    ✔️How Thomas Kuhn’s cycle explains the resistance to new medical paradigms.
    ✔️Why PCOS should be classified as an evolutionary survival mechanism rather than a disease.
    ✔️The profound connection between maternal lifestyle, visceral fat, and severe pregnancy complications like pre-eclampsia.
    ✔️How to independently audit your own metabolic health using five basic physical and blood markers.
    ✔️The dangers of the traditional glucose-centric diagnostic model and why fasting insulin is the true marker to watch.

    4:39 – Keyhole surgery & paradigm shifts
    9:29 – Why lifestyle medicine isn't implemented
    14:59 – PCOS as an evolutionary survival mechanism

    The Epigenetic Reset, Gut Microbiome & How to Build Healthier Future Generations with Donna Gates

    09/06/2026 | 1h 28 mins.
    Donna Gates discusses her recovery journey from Long COVID and Lyme disease, which inspired deeper exploration into epigenetics and human development.
    She explains how epigenetic tags inherited from parents are erased shortly after conception, creating a powerful opportunity for prospective parents to optimize health before pregnancy. The conversation covers the microbiome's role in fertility, immune development, brain health, birth practices, methylation, mitochondrial function, and the importance of fermented foods.
    Dr. Ehrlich and Donna also discuss modern health challenges including infertility, autism trends, chronic inflammation, vaccine readiness, and the importance of supporting healthy microbiome development from conception through infancy.

    ◉ 𝐀𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐆𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭:
