School closures, masking, and fear left scars. Here's how to rebuild resilience. In this episode of Demystifying PANS/PANDAS, Dr. Elizabeth Mumper joins us to unpack what COVID taught us about children’s health—what worked, what harmed, and how to do better next time. She connects school closures, masking, and fear with developmental and mental health fallout, then ties the virus to neuroinflammation, viral reactivation, mitochondrial dysfunction, and practical ways families can restore resilience.

Did the lockdowns do more damage to our kids than the virus? In this episode of Demystifying PANS/PANDAS, Dr. Elizabeth Mumper reveals how fear-driven lockdowns and masking policies may have harmed kids more than helped, disrupting emotional growth, learning, and safety nets. She contrasts this with other countries’ child-centered models and exposes how misclassified hospital data exaggerated children’s risk, fueling unnecessary fear.
Dr. Mumper then connects the dots between the virus and PANS/PANDAS, exploring how spike proteins, viral reactivation, and mitochondrial stress can ignite brain inflammation and mood shifts. From the gut-brain connection to the power of vitamins, oxygen, and parental intuition, she lays out a hopeful roadmap: support the mitochondria, question the narrative, and trust your instincts to protect your child’s future.

Before you treat, see the brain. This is why it matters. In this episode of Demystifying PANS/PANDAS, Dr. Eboni Cornish explains how brain scans can help us see and calm the brain inflammation that's messing with mood, sleep, and thinking. She details common root causes (vector-borne infections, mold/biotoxins, strep), the often-missed basics, and practical limbic system retraining tools that make treatment tolerable.
-----
This scan shows what lab tests often miss—and what to do next.

Supporting the nervous system beats punishing behavior. Here’s how. In this episode of Demystifying PANS/PANDAS, Eileen Devine explains Brain First Parenting: a shift from behavior control to supporting a child’s brain and nervous system with empathy, accommodations, and co-regulation. She shows why parent healing and regulation are essential, why traditional behavior plans often fail kids with neuroimmune/neurobehavioral differences, and how families can build resilience day by day.
-----
It’s not bad behavior—it’s missing brain skills. In this episode of Demystifying PANS/PANDAS, Eileen Devine joins us to explain how what looks like refusal or defiance in kids is often a brain skills gap or a stressed nervous system. Traditional charts, punishments, and rewards usually fail these kids—and exhaust parents.
Instead, she shows how to match expectations to your child’s real abilities, build in supports where skills lag, and use your own calm presence to help them regulate. She also talks about handling unpredictable ‘on/off’ days, the hidden trauma parents carry, and how to stop spiraling about the future. Tune in now to hear practical ways to work with schools, know when an environment isn’t safe, and add small daily habits that build endurance and hope over time.
-----
Eileen Devine is a parent coach, licensed clinical social worker, and mother to a teenager with neurobehavioral differences.

When sudden mood swings or rage don’t respond to treatment, infections may be the culprit. In this episode of Demystifying PANS/PANDAS, Dr. Rosalie Greenberg, a child and adolescent psychiatrist, explains how hidden infections can inflame the brain and trigger psychiatric symptoms. She shares real stories, warning signs to watch for, and a practical three-step approach: treat the infection, calm the immune system, and ease symptoms so kids can get their childhood back.
-----
When parents say something’s wrong, they’re usually right. In this episode of Demystifying PANS/PANDAS, Dr. Rosalie Greenberg shares how many kids once labeled with psychiatric disorders—like bipolar or even schizophrenia—were actually battling hidden infections. She describes dramatic turnarounds, like a teen misdiagnosed with schizophrenia who improved once treated for Bartonella.
Dr. Greenberg explains why some medications (like antidepressants) can backfire in vulnerable kids, and how to use them more safely by starting very low, increasing slowly, and always watching for family history of bipolar disorder. She also notes how ‘psychiatric herx’ reactions during treatment sometimes ease with simple anti-inflammatories. Her bottom line is simple but powerful: be a detective, listen to parents, and never ignore sudden changes in a child’s behavior.
-----
Dr. Rosalie Greenberg is a board-certified adult, child, and adolescent psychiatrist recognized for her expertise in complex childhood psychiatric disorders and pediatric psychopharmacology. She earned her MD from Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons, where she also completed her residency and fellowship, later serving as chief resident and a longtime faculty member.
With over four decades of experience, she has authored books, research articles, and produced educational media addressing topics from adolescent suicide and pediatric bipolar disorder to the psychiatric impact of infections. Practicing in New Jersey, she was among the first to highlight the connection between tick-borne illnesses and psychiatric symptoms in children, often in cases where no tick bite was known. Today, her private practice in Summit, New Jersey, focuses on the psychiatric manifestations of infectious and immune-related diseases in youth, while she continues to lecture nationally and internationally on children’s mental health.

Fake food, real damage—here’s how to protect your child’s gut and immune system. In this episode of Demystifying PANS/PANDAS, Dr. Michelle Perro joins us to share how ‘fake food’ and environmental toxins are disrupting our kids’ guts and immunity. We also explore practical steps you can start today—from choosing organic staples and cooking at home, to using bone broth, testing key minerals, gardening with kids, and even pushing for healthier school lunches.
----
In this episode of Demystifying PANS/PANDAS, Dr. Michelle Perro shares her journey from pediatric emergency medicine to integrative pediatrics after witnessing how homeopathy transformed her own son’s health. She connects the rise of ‘fake food’ with today’s explosion of autoimmunity and neurobehavioral challenges in children. At the heart of her message is the gut microbiome: when chemicals like glyphosate disrupt gut microbes, kids become more vulnerable to inflammation that impacts mood, sleep, learning, and immunity.
Our conversation also turns practical, offering families clear, doable steps. Dr. Perro explains why going organic—especially with dairy, meat, and berries—makes a difference, and how cooking at home, packing lunches, and testing for zinc and magnesium levels can reveal and correct hidden deficiencies. She highlights simple solutions like bone broth, home or community gardening, breastfeeding, and vagal therapies, while also encouraging parents to push for healthier school meals. She ends with hope: even small changes, done consistently, can rebuild resilience and shift a child’s long-term health.

Could something as simple as your child’s breathing be affecting their behavior? In this episode of Demystifying PANS/PANDAS, Drs. Lynda and Krystle Dean-Duru join us to explain how our breathing patterns shape sleep, immunity, and behavior in our children. We also delve into various aspects, such as birth factors, breastfeeding, nasal hygiene, and chewing, all aimed at reducing inflammation and promoting healing.
----
In this episode of Demystifying PANS/PANDAS, we explore the tight link between airway health, craniofacial development, and systemic inflammation in children. Drs. Lynda and Krystle Dean-Duru join us to trace patterns from birth to early feeding, showing how breastfeeding and chewing help the jaws widen, the palate lower, and the nose open for efficient nasal breathing. They emphasize that mouth breathing bypasses filtration and nitric oxide, strains the brain and body, and reinforces sympathetic overdrive that impairs sleep and healing.
They also outline a practical integrative toolkit that includes nasal hygiene to support lip seal as well as whole foods and posture for growth. Their message is hopeful: start as early as infancy when possible, but it’s never too late to improve airway, sleep, and overall health.
----
Dr. Lynda Dean-Duru and Dr. Krystle Dean-Duru are a pioneering mother–daughter team transforming pediatric dentistry with an integrative, airway-centric approach. Together at Ashburn Children’s Dentistry, they combine laser-assisted therapies, myofunctional training, and growth-guidance appliances to optimize craniofacial development, sleep, and breathing from infancy through adolescence. Their shared mission is to empower families with early, preventative strategies that transform oral health, airway function, and overall health

The symptoms looked psychiatric. The cause was infectious. The consequences were irreversible. In this episode of Demystifying PANS/PANDAS, Nicole Bell shares her journey of losing her husband to a misdiagnosed tick-borne illness mistaken for early-onset Alzheimer’s. She reveals the systemic flaws in diagnostic testing, the overlooked connection between infections and psychiatric symptoms, and how she’s now leading efforts to revolutionize tick-borne disease detection.
----
In this episode of Demystifying PANS/PANDAS, Nicole Bell recounts the heartbreaking story of her husband’s decline from undiagnosed tick-borne infections that presented as psychiatric symptoms and were misdiagnosed as early-onset Alzheimer’s. Despite seeking answers through mainstream and integrative medicine, repeated false negatives and incomplete diagnostic tools left her without a clear path—until she uncovered the real root: chronic infections like Lyme, Bartonella, and Babesia. Nicole reflects on how this experience revealed systemic flaws in medicine, where symptom management too often replaces root-cause discovery, and how she turned her grief into advocacy by joining Galaxy Diagnostics.
Nicole explains how they are now developing direct detection tools that go beyond traditional antibody tests—which often fail due to immune suppression. She breaks down how technologies like digital polymerase chain reaction and urine antigen testing are helping uncover stealth pathogens earlier and more accurately. We also discuss the emotional toll on caregivers, the power of community, and the importance of journaling and organizing information when navigating medical chaos. Nicole’s message is clear: demand better, trust your instincts, and never stop searching for the truth when it comes to complex, chronic illness.
