Episode 105: Martha Carlin

Thank you for tuning in for another episode of Life’s Best Medicine. Martha Carlin left her career in business where she worked as  a systems thinker and turnaround expert and devoted herself to solving the puzzle of Parkinson’s disease. She began her journey as a citizen scientist when her husband (John) was diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease. His diagnosis launched a transformative life-journey and Martha’s passion to find the answers traditional medicine either missed or overlooked. She is the founder of the science blog, “Martha’s Quest,” and is also the founder of BiotiQuest. In this discussion, Dr. Brian and Martha talk about the initial results of a new clinical trial on the effects of Sugar Shift—a product made by Martha’s company, BiotiQuest--Martha’s spiritual journey and religious experience, the supremacy of love and how this virtue makes anything possible, how Martha understands the relationship between science and spiritual faith, the body’s amazing ability to heal itself, the significance of the microbiome for total health and metabolic health, the benefits of fecal transplants, the discovery of God through the complexity of life and biology, and how belief impacts everything. Life’s Best Medicine According to Martha: “It is love; it really does survive everything.” Thank you for listening.
