Regenerative Medicine for Chronic Inflammation with Dr. Thomas Buchheit

S1 E85 • Oct 15, 2026 • 27 mins

Could suppressing inflammation also interfere with healing? Dr. Thomas Buchheit explains why he focuses on resolving the inflammatory response rather than blocking it long term. He and Elizabeth Yarnell discuss how NSAIDs may blunt muscle growth and recovery around exercise, and how PRP, autologous conditioned serum and prolotherapy aim to restart stalled healing in joints, nerves and connective tissue.

Key Points

  • Chronic inflammation is often better resolved by supporting the body’s healing cascade than by suppressing it with long term anti inflammatory drugs.
  • Exercise depends on a healthy inflammatory signal, and taking NSAIDs before or around workouts can blunt muscle growth and recovery.
  • Regenerative therapies like PRP, autologous conditioned serum, and prolotherapy aim to restart stalled healing in joints, nerves, and connective tissue by stimulating the immune response.

Dr. Buchheit's book: Healing Joints and Nerves. It explains the science behind regenerative therapies for a broad audience.
