Interview with Martha Carlin

Over two decades of Parkinsons research focused on the causes of symptoms and what you can do about them are included in Martha Carlin’s new book titled Connected. My interview with her is a must watch for anyone currently confronting symptoms of Parkinsons.

The Link to Martha Carlin’s New Book inspired by Two Decades of Parkinsons Research

Connected: love loss in the unseen forces behind chronic disease https://biotiquest.com/products/connected-by-martha-carlin

Here is the List of Questions I asked Martha:

Martha, you’ve been researching Parkinson’s for more than two decades. For listeners who may not know your story, what set you on this path?
Your new book is called Connected. Why did you choose that title?
What do you hope people living with Parkinson’s take away from the book?
Looking back, what was the biggest misconception you had about Parkinson’s when John was first diagnosed?
After 24 years of research, what do you believe now that you didn’t believe then?
Many people still think of Parkinson’s as a disease of dopamine loss. Why do you believe that view is incomplete?
You’ve often described Parkinson’s as a systems problem rather than simply a brain disease. What do you mean by that?
The gut microbiome has become a major focus of Parkinson’s research. Why is the gut so important?
What have we learned about Parkinson’s and the microbiome that we didn’t know twenty years ago?
If you had to identify one overlooked factor driving chronic illness today, what would it be?
You recently published a paper with physicist Barry Ninham. What question were you trying to answer?
For listeners who have never heard the term glycocalyx, what is it and why should they care?
Your paper suggests that the glycocalyx may be a critical interface between microbes, toxins, inflammation, and the body. Can you explain that concept?
How might glycocalyx damage help explain why so many different environmental exposures are linked to Parkinson’s?
Why do you think this structure has received so little attention compared to genes, proteins, and neurotransmitters?
Does this framework change how we think about the progression of Parkinson’s disease?
What role do bacterial products like endotoxin play in this model?
If someone listening today has Parkinson’s, what practical steps can they take to better support their body’s protective barriers and microbiome?
What research questions are you most excited to pursue next?
After everything you’ve learned through John’s journey and your own research, what gives you the most hope for the future of Parkinson’s recovery

Redox Signaling

Researchers have only recently recognized the central role redox signaling plays to support the health of humans, plants and animals. It is the boost needed to reverse illness and sustain health.

For further information about ASEA and order information visit: https://www.recoverwithredox.net

Redox signaling supports the ability of cells to respond appropriately to environmental stimuli. When each cell acts independently of other cells, its ability to avert illness and disease is compromised. Redox cell signaling activates communication among cells to support the body’s ability to reverse illness and sustain wellness.

Studies report that redox cell signaling …

Does no harm
Contains no toxins
Wakes up sleepy cells
Helps un-poison the body
Activates a natural process of healing
Has anti-viral properties
Addresses bacterial infections
Facilitates the production of glutathione by the body
Reduces reactions to chronic stress

When confronted with neurological challenges, the allostatic load becomes too great for the body to perform the functions of toxic elimination. All of the body’s elimination organs (eg: liver, kidneys, colon, skin) are confronted with getting rid of more toxins than can be processed out of the body at any given time. The problem is analogous to when a dam overflows.

As the body becomes less able to eliminate the toxins that have accumulated the overflow overwhelms the body’s ability to function. This compromises the natural ability of the body to rejuvenate and regenerate. With Parkinsons, the allostatic load becomes too overwhelming for the body to perform the functions of elimination and renewal.

Redox signaling helps reduce an allostatic load that has maxed out.

For further information about ASEA and order information visit: https://www.recoverwithredox.net

Research on Redox Signaling and Parkinsons

Researchers are clearly enthused about the prospects for redox signaling molecules. A search on the Pubmed.gov research platform lists 7,262 studies that have been published when searching the terms “redox signaling molecules”. The explosive interest in this topic indicates it merits serious consideration.

Chin Med J (Engl). 2026 Mar 5;139(5):653–671. Role of LRRK2 in physiological activities, diseases, and therapy

Abstract

Leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) is a critical target for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease (PD) and potentially other diseases. LRRK2 is involved in intracellular signaling, immune response, and inflammation, with key roles in both the central nervous system and peripheral tissues.

LRRK2 mutations are linked to cellular dysfunction including mitochondrial and neuronal damage and can disrupt signaling pathway balance, thereby contributing to PD and other disorders

Membrane Lipid Replacement

The Mitochondrial Theory of Aging posits that aging stems from mitochondrial damage produced during energy metabolism. A vicious cycle results when faulty mitochondria damage DNA, proteins, and lipids. Cellular dysfunction and aging result. Membrane Lipid Replacement helps to reverse the damage to mitochondria due to aging and illnesses like Parkinsons.

Mitochondria are the power house of cells. Ninety percent (90%) of energy is produced by them. They are the primary defense for viruses and toxins. There can be thousands of mitochondria in each cell. Cells in the heart muscle have the most with many as 5,000 in each cell. Mitochondria are easily stressed given their tiny size and the fact cells are so small to begin with. Effectiveness and survival are easily threatened. This, simply put, shortens life spans and leads to illness and disease. All mitochondria sustain damage over time. As we enter into the later stages of our lives, damaged mitochondria can no longer provide the energy necessary to maintain memory compared to mitochondria at younger stages of our lives. This explains why fatigue can be a challenge for individuals in the later stages of their life. A 90-year-old person may have lost up to one-half of the mitochondrial function that they had as a young adult. This means that the brains of older people can tire more easily which results in temporary confusion , memory loss and fatigue. Exercise helps restore and maintain the integrity of mitochondria. It stimulates the movement of oxygen and nutrients to the brain and ultimately to nerve cells in the brain. However, exercise alone cannot make an old brain young again. The structure and function of mitochondria can be restored with Membrane Lipid Replacement. a therapy discussed in my interview with Natural Pharmacist Ross Pelton posted above. Membrane Lipid Replacement is designed to:

1) improve mitochondrial function, (2) reduce fatigue and (3) Increase the bioavailability of nutrients.

Research on Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Parkinsons

Membranes (Basel). 2021 Nov 29;11(12):944. Fundamentals of Membrane Lipid Replacement: A Natural Medicine Approach to Repairing Cellular Membranes and Reducing Fatigue, Pain, and Other Symptoms While Restoring Function in Chronic Illnesses and Aging

Abstract

Membrane Lipid Replacement (MLR) uses natural membrane lipid supplements to safely replace damaged, oxidized lipids in membranes in order to restore membrane function, decrease symptoms and improve health. Oral MLR supplements contain mixtures of cell membrane glycerolphospholipids, fatty acids, and other lipids, and can be used to replace and remove damaged cellular and intracellular membrane lipids. Membrane injury, caused mainly by oxidative damage, occurs in essentially all chronic and acute medical conditions, including cancer and degenerative diseases, and in normal processes, such as aging and development. After ingestion, the protected MLR glycerolphospholipids and other lipids are dispersed, absorbed, and internalized in the small intestines, where they can be partitioned into circulating lipoproteins, globules, liposomes, micelles, membranes, and other carriers and transported in the lymphatics and blood circulation to tissues and cellular sites where they are taken in by cells and partitioned into various cellular membranes. Once inside cells, the glycerolphospholipids and other lipids are transferred to various intracellular membranes by lipid carriers, globules, liposomes, chylomicrons, or by direct membrane-membrane interactions. The entire process appears to be driven by ‘bulk flow’ or mass action principles, where surplus concentrations of replacement lipids can stimulate the natural exchange and removal of damaged membrane lipids while the replacement lipids undergo further enzymatic alterations. Clinical studies have demonstrated the advantages of MLR in restoring membrane and organelle function and reducing fatigue, pain, and other symptoms in chronic illness and aging patients. ****** Cold Spring Harb Perspect Med. 2025 Jul 28:a041891. The Mitochondrial Connection in Parkinson’s Disease

Abstract

Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles with complex structural features that perform several essential cellular functions, including energy production by oxidative phosphorylation, regulation of calcium and lipid homeostasis, and control of programmed cell death. Given their critical role, alterations in mitochondrial biology can lead to neuronal dysfunction and death. Defects in mitochondrial respiration, especially in oxidative energy production, have long been thought to be implicated in the etiology and pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease. Given the multifaceted roles of mitochondria in health and diseases, the putative role of mitochondria in Parkinson’s disease likely extends well beyond defective respiration. As such, mitochondrial dysfunction represents a promising target for disease-modifying therapies in Parkinson’s disease and related conditions. ****** Discoveries (Craiova). 2016 Feb 18;4(1):e54. Clinical Uses of Membrane Lipid Replacement Supplements in Restoring Membrane Function and Reducing Fatigue in Chronic Diseases and Cancer

Abstract

Membrane Lipid Replacement is the use of functional oral supplements containing cell membrane glycerolphospholipids and antioxidants to safely replace damaged membrane lipids that accumulate during aging and in various chronic and acute diseases. Most if not all clinical conditions and aging are characterized by membrane phospholipid oxidative damage, resulting in loss of membrane and cellular function. Clinical trials have shown the benefits of Membrane Lipid Replacement supplements in replenishing damaged membrane lipids and restoring mitochondrial function, resulting in reductions in fatigue in aged subjects and patients with a variety of clinical diagnoses. Recent observations have indicated that Membrane Lipid Replacement can be a useful natural supplement strategy in a variety of conditions: chronic fatigue, such as found in many diseases and disorders; fatiguing illnesses (fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome); chronic infections (Lyme disease and mycoplasmal infections); cardiovascular diseases; obesity, metabolic syndrome and diabetes; neurodegenerative diseases (Alzheimer’s disease); neurobehavioral diseases (autism spectrum disorders); fertility diseases; chemical contamination (Gulf War illnesses); and cancers (breast, colorectal and other cancers). Membrane Lipid Replacement provides general membrane nutritional support during aging and illness to improve membrane function and overall health without risk of adverse effects.

Suvia Mouth Wash

The mouth is subject to various insults that result in troublesome symptoms such as ulcers, cuts, burns, etc. These can be caused by hot or sharp foods, infections or dental treatments.

Suvia mouth wash is a natural treatment with no side effects that protects the health of not only your mouth but your entire digestive system.

Why discuss issues with oral health when the focus of Parkinsons Recovery has always been on natural options for persons confronting troublesome neurological challenges?

Answer: The health of the mouth affects the rest of the body. Digestive issues, diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, cardiovascular diseases and neurodegenerative diseases are well known to be affected by health sores and infections. If you have been unable to bring your digestive system back on line, the problem may well reside with infections in your mouth.

Below is a replay of my interview in 2018 with the developer of Suvia Dr. John Hall who discusses the scientific basis behind the development of Suvia as well as the many uses and benefits provided by this natural way to rejuvenate and regenerate the health of the mouth. He makes reference to his formulation as TheraGel. The name has since been changed to Suvia but it is the same mouth wash.

I have personally used Suvia and can report it is the real deal. For more information and to order visit:

Suvia

From hot foods to brushing and flossing, to braces and dentures your mouth takes a beating. Suvia adheres to oral tissue, forming a protective barrier that manages pain while maintaining the moist environment required for optimal wound healing.

Unlike traditional mouthwashes with alcohol and harsh chemicals, Suvia uses 100% natural food ingredients to work with your mouth, not against it.

Suvia provides pain relief, protects wounded areas from contamination, and optimizes healing. It is drug-free and non-toxic and is safe to swallow. Not only does it provide excellent pain relief, but it can be also incorporated into the oral hygiene regimen to help keep the mouth clean and healthy.

BioAcoustics

Sharry Edwards pioneered a unique technology that falls within a field of complementary medicine that is called BioAcoustics. This innovative discipline combines Vocal Profiling through voice spectral analysis and the use of low frequency analog sound presentation to assist the body to support optimal form and function. BioAcoustics is to be considered a complementary modality.

Sound Health has discovered that the frequencies contained in the voice are holographic representations of your state of health and wellness. Every muscle, compound, process and structure of the body has a Frequency Equivalent™ that can be mathematically calculated. It is our belief that people with similar trauma, illnesses, syndromes, psychologies, diseases, toxins… have similar, if not identical, vocal anomalies.
