So these early signs- early, dangerous signs of what vaping can do, to say nothing of the chemicals that are being ingested, is terrible, and it's amazing that the FDA doesn't shut them down.
Ever thought about how brain stimulation could help with addiction recovery? In this episode of 'High Truths on Drugs and Addiction', Dr. Roneet Lev sits down with Charles 'Chip' Fisher, the innovative mind behind Fisher Wallace Laboratories. Chip's journey from Harvard graduate to top IBM salesman, and eventually to a pioneer in medical devices, is nothing short of fascinating.
He shares the story of how he co-founded Fisher Wallace Laboratories, which developed a brain stimulator that uses cranial electrotherapy stimulation (CES) to treat conditions like insomnia and depression. But here's the kicker: while CES isn't officially approved for addiction treatment, it's showing promise in helping with withdrawal symptoms and reducing cravings. Chip explains how this device works by sending a low-level electrical current to the brain, potentially resetting dopamine pathways to their pre-addictive state.
Imagine a future where battling addiction doesn't always mean relying on medications but could also involve innovative technology. Dr. Lev and Chip dive deep into the science behind CES, discussing its safety, effectiveness, and potential as a complementary tool in addiction recovery. They also touch on the broader implications for mental health, especially during the ongoing opioid crisis.
If you're curious about cutting-edge treatments and want to hear from someone who's making waves in the field, this episode is a must-listen. Get ready to rethink what you know about addiction treatment and explore how technology might just be the game-changer we've been waiting for.
