Heart disease is the #1 killer in the United States.

Between outspoken “experts” and advertisements for cereal leading the conversation, if you asked someone on the street what they believed caused heart disease, their answer would likely be cholesterol.

Yet, here’s the truth that might shock you: Your body actually needs cholesterol to survive.

Cholesterol is so important to your wellbeing that your liver produces all the cholesterol your body needs. So, even if you subscribe to a low cholesterol diet, your body is still working overtime to make up the difference.

So, why has cholesterol been villainized by conventional medicine, when other factors like air pollution, alcohol and insulin resistance have been recently clearly linked to heart disease?

The bottom line is this: your low cholesterol diet may be doing more harm than good.

April showers bring…a moldy summer? 🤢🦠

"People say 'but it's not black mold, it's only green or white, so it can't be mold'—there's a lot of misinformation out there."

Mold and Biotoxin Illness is a topic that hits close to home for Dr. Rothman. After suffering from mold related illness himself, he’s tried out every testing option and found one thing in common; “experts” compare the mold on the inside of your home with the mold outside.

But if you live in a rainy climate, or near bodies of water?

All these “professional” tests prove is that your home is only somewhat more safe than the damp, warm, optimal breeding ground for mold outside of the front doors of your home.

And to us, that’s simply not good enough.

The best approach to detecting mold? Try using multiple testing methods - visual inspection, moisture levels, ERMI dust sampling, and more. All of this can be done at a fraction of the cost on your own.

We’ve written an article all about mold and where it might be lurking in your home. Give it a read if you’re ready to make your space safe this summer: https://michaelrothmanmd.com/mold-how-it-is-hiding-in-your-home-and-affecting-your-body/?utm_source=SM&utm_medium=7.20.26&utm_campaign=video

🦟 Lyme disease is a hot topic this summer, and it’s on the rise; yet, it’s often one of the most misunderstood illnesses.

Emergency room visits for ticks are the highest they’ve been in nearly a decade, causing Lyme disease to surge, particularly here in the Northeast, and there’s cause for concern. The symptoms of Lyme disease often mimic other illnesses and this life altering diagnoses can easily go missed with conventional ways of testing and treatment.

If you've been struggling with unexplained symptoms such as chronic fatigue, joint pain, neurological issues, or cognitive problems, Lyme disease and its co-infections could be the culprit.

Time is of the essence with tick bites, as quick treatment of Lyme can lead to better outcomes. At Michael Rothman MD, we provide quick, specialized testing and clinical expertise that goes beyond conventional approaches that often dismiss patients and cause catastrophic delays in treatment. If you suspect you may have been infected with Lyme from a tick bite, we would love to have you for a free consultation in clinic.

That heartburn you felt after the barbecue on Saturday? It could be a sign of something more than just some simple indigestion.

Stomach pains, bloating, heartburn and gas are often signs of deeper metabolic imbalances affecting your entire body…and they often go untreated.

While it’s tempting to reach for antacids and ignore the problem, your gut health is vital to your overall wellbeing. Your gut is widely recognized as a second brain: home to your immune system and essential to hormone production, neurotransmitter synthesis, and nutrient absorption.

When you ignore that simple heartburn, and simply treat it with antacids after the fact? Every system in your body pays the real toll.

The good news is, you can stop the issue before it begins. Functional and metabolic testing reveals the root causes of your digestive dysfunction, such as bacterial overgrowth, nutrient deficiencies, food sensitivities, toxic overload, and metabolic imbalances that standard tests may miss.

If you’re ready to reclaim your gut health and overall wellbeing, take our quick quiz to discover if comprehensive testing could finally help you ditch the temporary solutions and give you true long lasting relief:

What you eat doesn't just affect your weight. It communicates directly with your autonomic nervous system, your hormones, and your metabolic function. 🥗

The Edibolic Diet, developed by Dr. Rothman, is built around one core principle: reducing "Edibolic stress," the physiological burden created by the modern diet, to restore homeostasis and prevent chronic disease.

That means limiting four key categories of dietary disruptors: excess sugars and carbohydrates, pro-inflammatory fats, neuro-excitotoxic additives, and pseudoestrogens. And building meals around the whole, nutrient-dense foods your body was designed to use.

This isn't a trend. It's a metabolic framework grounded in science.

Sarcoidosis is a complex, multisystem condition that conventional medicine often struggles to fully explain or treat. 💊

In this One on One, Dr. Rothman explores a functional and metabolic medicine approach to sarcoidosis: examining the immune dysregulation, inflammatory pathways, and metabolic imbalances that contribute to the condition, and how addressing those root causes can support a more comprehensive path forward.

If you or someone you know is navigating a sarcoidosis diagnosis, this is worth your time.

Your skin reflects what's happening beneath the surface. 🧬

In this One on One, Dr. Rothman takes a deep dive into the science of skincare — examining how hormonal balance, metabolic health, nutrient status, and lifestyle factors shape the health and appearance of your skin. Topical products matter, but they can only do so much when the underlying drivers haven't been addressed.

If you've tried countless products without lasting results, this may reframe your entire approach.

Reaching for antacids has become so routine that most people don't stop to ask why their reflux keeps coming back. 🔄

GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease) is commonly treated as a stomach acid problem, but the root cause is often far more complex, involving dietary patterns, metabolic dysfunction, gut motility, and autonomic nervous system imbalances.

At Michael Rothman MD, your GERD is evaluated through a functional and metabolic medicine lens, addressing what's driving your symptoms, not just suppressing them.
