This episode uses the estuary “dead zone” metaphor to explain how excess sugar in the body leads to chronic conditions like neuropathy, arthritis, and carpal tunnel syndrome. Dr. Rick Jacoby and Grock highlight how glycation and high fructose corn syrup damage tissue, making traditional treatments less effective. They advocate for regenerative medicine—especially red light therapy and Wharton's Jelly stem cell injections—to restore blood flow and repair damage. The episode also addresses regulatory hurdles and the promise of these innovative therapies for musculoskeletal pain.
