Removing Galectin 3 to Prevent Sepsis and Chronic disease with Dr. Isaac Eliaz | Rational Wellness Podcast 479
Galectin-3, Modified Citrus Pectin, and Therapeutic Apheresis: Emerging Applications in Sepsis, Cancer, and Chronic Inflammation   Dr. Ben Weitz introduces the Rational Wellness Podcast and interviews returning guest Dr. Isaac Eliaz about galectin-3 as an upstream driver of inflammation and fibrosis implicated in chronic degenerative disease, autoimmunity, cancer progression, and acute sepsis. Eliaz explains modified citrus pectin (PectaSol) as a researched galectin-3 inhibitor, discusses dosing ranges, and describes its clinical relevance across inflammation, cardiovascular risk, microbiome effects, and cancer (including prostate cancer trials). The conversation focuses on therapeutic apheresis and plasma exchange, contrasting nonselective plasma exchange with selective approaches such as LDL apheresis and Eliaz’s developing Xgal-3 filter designed to remove circulating galectin-3. He cites porcine sepsis data, an FDA breakthrough designation, upcoming sepsis trials, and potential to enhance cancer immunotherapy, while warning about hype, safety, training, and misuse in integrative settings. 00:00 Show Introduction 00:59 Meet Dr Isaac Eliaz 02:47 What Is Galectin 3 09:25 Galectin 3 And Sepsis 11:45 Modified Citrus Pectin Basics 17:11 MCP Dosing Guide 20:43 MCP Gut And Cancer Research 25:33 Why Galectin 3 Is Overlooked 26:49 Apheresis Filter Breakthrough 28:57 Will Galectin 3 Return 29:49 Sepsis Immune Overdrive 30:39 Galectin-3 Cancer Shield 31:13 MCP Prostate Trial Wins 33:33 Boosting Immunotherapy Response 35:32 Therapeutic Apheresis Explained 36:48 Plasma Exchange Hype Risks 39:12 Safer Protocols And Expertise 47:02 Personal Longevity And LDL 49:53 Selective Vs Plasma Outcomes 52:59 Future Trials And Wrap Up   Dr. Isaac Eliaz is an internationally recognized expert in the field of integrative medicine.
