Naturopathic doctor and author of The Cortisol Cure, Dr. Erin Kinney, explains why cortisol isn't the villain we think it is, but a "fix it" hormone you earn through rest and spend through everything else.

Ready to turn your gift for helping people into a real coaching career? Visit: https://riseandthriveglobal.com/positive-psychology-coaching/ Alli Schaper will tell you that the most important things she knows about living, she learned from mushrooms, including how to die. She is the CEO and cofounder of SuperMush, a functional mushroom brand backed by globally recognised artists, athletes and founders, a co-founder of Microdosing Collective, the first US nonprofit dedicated to legal microdosing advocacy, and the host of Into The Multiverse, a podcast exploring consciousness and psychedelics. Her path there did not begin on a stage. By the time she was 21, she had been prescribed around twelve different pharmaceutical medications for chronic gut issues she had carried since childhood. The tuning fork Alli’s way out was not a magic pill, and that, she says, was the whole lesson. Functional mushrooms, lion’s mane instead of high doses of caffeine, chaga for immune function, reishi to wind down for sleep, acted as what she calls a tuning fork for her nervous system. They slowed her down enough for her body to follow its natural rhythm, and for her gut, our second brain, to function well again. She is quick to add that not all mushrooms are made equal. The gold standard is the fruiting body of the fungus, double extracted through hot water and alcohol, and she is passionate about people learning to read the label of what they put in their body. The lie of the quick fix Society, Alli argues, has sold us a massive lie: that everything we take should fix us immediately. An Advil numbs the pain, a Xanax puts you to sleep. Adaptogens are different. They work to bring the body into homeostasis, and sometimes the first week feels worse, not better, as the body works through what it has been holding, the way a sauna stirs up what it is helping you release. Stay the course, she says, and the discomfort is the detox. What fungi know about death Then the conversation goes somewhere most wellness interviews never do. Humans share almost 50 per cent of our DNA with fungi, and Alli believes we have barely begun to learn from them. Beneath every step we take runs the mycelium network, and when something dies on the forest floor, the fungi decompose it and return its nutrients to the soil as new life. Mushrooms, she says, are great alchemisers of death and dying. That teaching became personal when her father passed away unexpectedly, five days before he was due to retire. Her whole family had experienced mushrooms together before he died, and it gave her mother, married to him for 36 years, a profoundly different relationship with grief. His passing also left Alli with a warning she now carries everywhere: beware destination happiness, the habit of parking your joy at some future date you may never reach. A breath between trigger and response Microdosing, Alli explains, is a sub-perceptual dose of a psychedelic taken like a supplement, no visuals, no hallucinations, on a protocol of a few days a week over about three months. By quieting the default mode network, where our habit loops live, it opens a window of neuroplasticity. Her favourite example is disarmingly ordinary: her mum calls, says something triggering, and where the old programme would answer like a six-year-old, microdosing gives her a breath to choose her response. Those subtle shifts, she believes, could change the world. It is not a panacea, she is careful to say, and used unconsciously psychedelics can cause real trouble. Used consciously, with reverence, they helped her look at herself honestly. Not a magic pill For 15 to 20 years, Alli sat on the crinkly paper of doctors’ offices waiting to be told what was wrong with her. The turning point was deciding her health was her own responsibility, and seeing clearly, in her words, how much of her life her mind was making her sick. What the mushrooms unlayered was something she believes we all carry underneath: your natural state is joy. Alli left us with three shiny golden nuggets. Functional mushrooms can be a tuning fork for your nervous system. Microdosing can create open-mindedness and the ability to pattern-interrupt yourself. And mushrooms are incredible teachers of death that can teach us how to live more fully. Watch the full conversation on YouTube.

Send us Fan MailThis is a "Flashback" episode of an episode that originally aired in September of 2024.You most likely have seen the word "adaptogen" on some type of herbal product or beverage in the past few years.  They are incredible herbs with an intelligence that helps our bodies adapt to stress.The thing is, they are so amazing that many companies use this word to market products that don't actually have adaptogens in them.In this informative episode I introduce listeners to adaptogens, a fascinating class of herbs celebrated for their ability to enhance the body's resilience to stress.  And hopefully give some insight into what an adaptogen truly is so that you can be more savvy when buying products with these incredible herbs.The conversation starts with the rich history of adaptogens, from their ancient roots in Ayurveda and Chinese medicine to their discovery in the West during extensive USSR research. Key adaptogens such as ashwagandha, American ginseng, and Rhodiola are highlighted, alongside the criteria that make an herb an adaptogen: non-toxic, non-specific stress response, normalizing effect, and impact on the HPA axis and SAS (sympathoadrenal system). The episode also provides practical advice on choosing reliable adaptogenic products and emphasizes the importance of integrating herbs with a balanced lifestyle. Listeners are encouraged to explore adaptogens further and consider their potential benefits alongside lifestyle changes.In this episode:Introduction to AdaptogensHistory and Discovery of AdaptogensDefining AdaptogensPopular Adaptogens and Their BenefitsUsing Adaptogens WiselyRelated Episodes:Episode 55 - Nervous System Herb AlliesEpisode 53 - The Window of ResilienceReferences: Winston, D., & Maimes, S.

Warum fühlen sich so viele Menschen gestresst und überfordert, obwohl unser Alltag körperlich oft weniger gefährlich und anstrengend ist als früher? Christian Opitz sieht eine wichtige Ursache in der „Tyrannei der Solls": den unzähligen Vorstellungen darüber, wie wir sein, leben, denken und funktionieren sollten. Im Gespräch geht es um imaginierte Gefahren, digitale Reizüberflutung und die Frage, weshalb unser Nervensystem für viele Anforderungen des modernen Lebens kaum gemacht ist. Wir sprechen außerdem darüber, warum Bewegung, Natur, Weite und sinnvolle körperliche Herausforderungen oft mehr bewirken können als der nächste Gesundheits-Hack. Ein Gespräch über Stress, Unwissenheit und die Freiheit, nicht jede innere Geschichte glauben zu müssen.   Das hochreine Ashwagandha KSM-66 von Annapurna liefert dir das vollkonzentrierte Wurzelextrakt des ayurvedischen Adaptogens zur natürlichen Unterstützung deines Stressmanagements, deiner Nerven und deiner inneren Balance.

In this Supplement Ingredient Series episode, Nurse Doza breaks down bovine adrenal gland — a glandular supplement with over a century of use, rooted in the ancestral practice of eating organ meat for nutrients the body needs to function. He explains how cortisol dysregulation can show up as afternoon crashes, mood shifts, and restless nights, and why adrenal glandular is paired with adaptogens and B vitamins in a three-in-one formula built to support the stress response. FEATURED PARTNER Zen (Stress Relief) by MSW Nutrition is the bovine adrenal gland formula Nurse Doza reaches for himself — and the reason is the ingredient itself, which is genuinely hard to find on a shelf. One capsule delivers 125 mg of adrenal gland tissue sourced from Argentina, paired with four standardized adaptogens (Asian ginseng, rhodiola, eleuthero, and schisandra), plus vitamin C, vitamin B6 as P5P, and pantothenic acid. That's the three-in-one Nurse Doza describes in this episode: glandular, adaptogens, and B vitamins in one capsule, formulated to support the body's stress response and steadier daily energy.

A rash baffled 25 years of dermatologists. It disappeared in a week once Dr. Steven Zodkoy traced it to a childhood memory. Here's what that case, and the concept of a "biofilm," has to do with your migraines and your bladder. Dr. Chris Motley sits down with Dr. Steven Zodkoy, a chiropractor and applied kinesiologist who became the first in his field to pass the American College of Nutrition exam, a credential previously reserved for MDs and PhDs. Thirty-five years into practice, Dr. Zodkoy specializes in the patient conventional medicine gave up on: the migraine sufferer, the "recurring UTI" patient who never actually had a UTI, the chronic fatigue case with a normal bloodwork panel. His framework rests on one idea most doctors do not test for: the biofilm, a sticky protective layer that bacteria, viruses, mold, and parasites lay down to hide from the immune system and from treatment. Once one pathogen builds a biofilm, Zodkoy argues, it invites others in, which is why a "cured" infection so often resurfaces as something else entirely, chronic sinusitis becoming Lyme-like fatigue, a bladder infection becoming a lifetime of unexplained pelvic tightness, a resistant childhood strain becoming an adult autoimmune diagnosis.  Key Takeaways Biofilms are why a "cleared" infection keeps coming back as something else. A biofilm is the mucous-like shield a bacterium, virus, parasite, or mold colony builds to hide from the immune system and from antibiotics. Once it's there, he says, it invites other pathogens to shelter in it too, which can explain why chronic sinusitis, Lyme-linked fatigue, and mold exposure so often show up in the same patient.  Interstitial cystitis is frequently a tight-bladder problem being treated as a recurrent UTI. Dr. Zodkoy's read: stress and anxiety tighten the bladder, it never fully empties, and what's left behind gets infected, so the antibiotic treats a symptom while the muscle stays tight and the infections keep returning. His protocol adjusts the pelvic floor and pubic symphysis, then layers in biofilm-breaking supplements and emotional work.  A 25-year rash resolved after one round of Neuro-Emotional Technique tied to an age-seven memory. Every physical test on this patient, mold, yeast, parasites, heavy metals, came back clean. Emotional testing didn't.  His migraine protocol runs liver support first, nervous system second, emotional work third, in that order, on purpose. Dr. Zodkoy's 1992 theory ties migraines to a slow-functioning liver overloaded by chemical exposure, hormones, or diet. He walks us through his 8-week liver protocol, 16 weeks including autonomic nervous system support, and a 96% success rate once emotional work is added. You cannot do deep detox or trauma work on a nervous system that has nothing left. There's no point moving to detox, biofilm-clearing, or emotional release until a patient's self-rated energy crosses roughly 50 to 60 out of 100.  [00:00:00] Cold open: migraines, interstitial cystitis, chronic fatigue, and the biofilm nobody explains  [00:02:02] Origin story: "doctor, lawyer, doctor" and practicing three months before 25  [00:04:04] Why he became a nutritionist first: the autonomic nervous system as the missing piece  [00:06:08] Finding a hidden emotion: the six-minute visit versus a real history  [00:09:37] The HPA axis toolkit: DHEA, GABA, adaptogens, and a gut bacterium built for stress  [00:11:27] NET, emotion code, and generational trauma: "it doesn't have to be real, it has to be believed"  [00:14:36] The 25-year rash: a muscle test, a forgotten age seven, and a mother's confession  [00:19:04] Migraines: the 1992 liver theory, the 80/20 split, and a claimed 96% success rate  [00:23:43] Interstitial cystitis is not a UTI: the tight bladder nobody is treating [00:27:06]  Killing the biofilm: natokinase, antimicrobials, and cranial electrotherapy stimulation  [00:31:29] The sympathetic-parasympathetic seesaw, and why healing collapses without it  [00:34:59] The "oomph" scale: testing cortisol at home and in the office  [00:36:27] The protocol in order: glandulars, adaptogens, and parasympathetic support, dosed on purpose  [00:43:30] Chronic fatigue, sinus biofilms, and the "house party" that becomes Lyme, EBV, and mold  [00:47:19] Parasites in America, and the TG/HDL ratio he says predicts heart risk  [01:00:02] Closing: where to find Dr. Zodkoy, and a teed-up follow-up on the healthcare system Resources Mentioned Tools & Products Biofilm Clear: Zodkoy's stated favorite combination product for breaking down biofilms, made up of natokinase, serrapeptase, lumbrokinase, and bromelain. He describes dosing at 2000 IU for patients under 50 and up to 4000 IU for patients over 50 with abnormal bloodwork. CP2305 (referenced in audio as "PC2305"): a Lactobacillus gasseri probiotic strain studied for stress and HPA-axis effects. True Laser: a home low-level laser device Zodkoy places over the vagus nerve. Cranial electrotherapy stimulation (CES) units: clip-on-the-ear devices Zodkoy uses for anxiety, sleep, depression, and (with pads placed over the bladder) interstitial cystitis relief. Adrenal glandular products (brand examples given: Adrenal Complex from Designs for Health, Adrenal from Orthomolecular, Cortex from Thorne Research), used at a fraction of label dose, one pill in the morning only, per Zodkoy's protocol. Adaptogens referenced: ashwagandha, holy basil, rhodiola, cordyceps. • Nervous-system support referenced: DHEA, L-theanine, GABA, phosphatidylserine, adrenoglandulars. Antimicrobials referenced for biofilm-associated infections: berberine, olive leaf, oregano. Nutrients referenced for liver-support migraine protocol: B vitamins, glutathione, NAC. Concepts referenced: HPA axis (hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal): the stress-response pathway Zodkoy targets before any other intervention. Applied kinesiology: manual muscle testing Zodkoy uses to distinguish emotional, physical, biochemical, parasitic, fungal, or toxic causes of a symptom. NET (Neuro-Emotional Technique), Emotion Code, Body Code: hands-on techniques used to locate and release stored emotional triggers.

Nutrition Nugget! Bite-sized bonus episodes offer tips, tricks and approachable science. This week, Jenn is talking about the Feel Bar. A viral Instagram reel promising organic ingredients, adaptogens, and a bold dig at a competitor sent Jenn straight to the nutrition label to see if The Feel Bar lives up to the hype. The protein and fiber numbers look promising, but a closer look at the sweeteners, the source of fat, and a mysterious mismatch between the marketing graphics and the actual package raises a few questions. Is the cordyceps dose high enough to make a difference, or is it more marketing than function? Is this really a "notice how you feel" kind of bar, or just another premium snack riding a trendy ingredient list? Jenn breaks down the ingredients, the math, and the messaging to figure out where the Feel Bar really lands to help you determine whether it earns a spot in your snack rotation or stays on the shelf.

Supplement safety is often discussed in very general terms, but in practice the risks depend heavily on the individual. A supplement that is reasonable for one person may be inappropriate for another based on their medications, health conditions, dose, formulation, or the other products they are already using. This becomes especially important when supplements interact with medications or underlying medical conditions. Some interactions can change how a drug is absorbed, metabolised, transported, or cleared from the body. Others can amplify or oppose the drug's clinical effect, such as increasing sedation, lowering blood pressure or blood glucose, or affecting bleeding risk. In this episode, Giulia Guerrini, a GPhC-registered pharmacist and researcher at Examine, talks about how clinicians and practitioners can think more systematically about supplement safety, side effects, contraindications, and drug–supplement interactions.

Could your perimenopause symptoms be caused by more than just hormones? In this episode, I sit down once again with Adele Winsett for a powerful conversation about one of the most overlooked aspects of women's health: nervous system dysregulation. We explore how nervous system dysregulation, chronic stress, and adrenal health may contribute to fatigue, anxiety, burnout, and other common perimenopause symptoms. While much of the conversation around perimenopause focuses on declining hormones and hormone replacement therapy, many women are also living in a constant state of chronic stress. Over time, this can overwhelm the nervous system, reduce resilience, and leave you feeling exhausted, anxious, disconnected, or simply "stuck." Together, we explore why supporting the nervous system is just as important as supporting hormones, and why healing often requires looking at the whole picture. In this episode, we discuss: • Why hormones aren't the whole story in perimenopause • What nervous system dysregulation is and why it matters • The difference between fight, flight and freeze • How chronic stress and adrenal burden can affect how you feel • Common symptoms women experience when the nervous system becomes overwhelmed • Why resilience changes as we age • The pressures of modern life and how they impact women's health • The role of oxytocin, pleasure, connection and joy in supporting nervous system health • Why some women become less tolerant of additional stressors during perimenopause • Adaptogens and lifestyle strategies that may help support recovery • My own personal experience navigating grief, loss and nervous system healing If you've been feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, emotionally flat, anxious, exhausted or like you've lost yourself, I hope this conversation reminds you that your body isn't working against you—it's asking for support. ✨ Healing isn't just about balancing hormones. It's about helping your body feel safe again.

On this episode, Jared sits down with Amber Lynn Vitale, certified nutritionist, Ayurvedic clinical consultant, and national educator for Sabinsa Wellness, to explore the fascinating world of Ayurvedic medicine and what it can teach us about personalized health. They discuss the importance of ingredient sourcing, raw material testing, and how to know you're getting a quality product when choosing supplements. Amber shares how ancient Ayurvedic principles focus on understanding the individual rather than treating everyone the same, and how modern research is beginning to validate many of these time-tested concepts. The conversation also dives into the rigorous standards Sabinsa uses to ensure purity, potency, and consistency in herbal ingredients. If you've ever wondered how to evaluate supplement quality or wanted a practical introduction to Ayurveda, this episode is a great place to start. Visit the podcast website here: VitalityRadio.comYou can follow @vitalitynutritionbountiful and @vitalityradio on Instagram, or Vitality Radio and Vitality Nutrition on Facebook.

Mōcean (stylized as mōcean drinkwerx) is a disruptive, better-for-you functional beverage brand pioneering the adult clean energy drink market. Co-founded by a multi-generational father-son duo—veteran master brewmaster Tony Vieira and creative brand strategist Christian Vieira—Mōcean was engineered to challenge the high-stimulant, youth-centric marketing of conventional energy drinks. By introducing a taurine-free, immune-support formulation rooted in premium Eastern botanicals, the brand directly targets health-conscious professionals, parents, and athletes seeking sustained cognitive performance without the subsequent sugar crash or jittery fallout. The inspiration for Mōcean emerged out of a universal pain point in consumer packaged goods (CPG): the distinct lack of health-conscious energy products for mature demographics. Standing in a hospital gift shop during the late-night birth of his daughter, Christian Vieira recognized that the energy drink aisle was a neon landscape of excessive stimulants and artificial ingredients completely unaligned with adult lifestyle needs. To bridge this market gap, Christian partnered with his father, Tony Vieira. Bringing over 36 years of commercial brewing science experience from executive development roles at Anheuser-Busch, Coors, and Mark Anthony Brewing—where he spearheaded the scaling of Blue Moon and the technical quality infrastructure behind White Claw's market dominance—Tony applied precise formulation standards to revolutionize the clean energy space. While 99% of conventional energy drinks rely on standard chemical copy-pasting, Mōcean is engineered to meet the strict compliance and ingredient standards of premium natural grocers like Whole Foods Market and Sprouts. Mōcean distinguishes itself as the first functional energy drink in the United States to utilize shiso (Perilla frutescens), an ancient Eastern botanical highly regarded in Asian wellness traditions for its powerful anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and immune-modulating properties. This herbal foundation aligns with modern consumer shifts toward holistic wellness and daily preventative health. Rather than overloading the central nervous system with empty stimulants, Mōcean operates as a hybrid wellness supplement. The ingredient deck features a strategic matrix of functional adaptogens, vitamins, and minerals, including therapeutic doses of Elderberry extract, Echinacea, Zinc, Vitamin C, and Vitamin B12. It also incorporates Magnesium Citrate combined with natural Ocean Salt to mitigate physical fatigue and support neural hydration. In a major departure from industry standards, Mōcean contains zero taurine, proactively addressing emerging consumer awareness and scientific studies scrutinizing the long-term metabolic impacts of stimulant stacking. For clean energy, the beverage delivers a calibrated 130 mg of organic green tea caffeine per serving. This moderate dosing provides jitter-free cognitive focus, allowing high-performing adults to safely consume the product within recommended daily health boundaries. Mōcean explicitly rejects artificial, candy-flavored profiles like cotton candy or birthday cake, opting instead for crisp, subtly carbonated, and naturally sweetened options. The core flavor architecture includes Mandarin, a bright, nostalgic citrus profile; White Peach, a sophisticated and smooth floral flavor tailored for mature palates; Blueberry Pom, a rich, tart fusion of dark berries designed for a refreshing midday mental reset; and Strawberry Guava, a crisp, tropical profile that delivers authentic fruit notes without excessive sweetness. Representing the evolution of the functional beverage market, Mōcean successfully captures market share at the intersection of natural energy, daily immunity supplements, and clean-label transparency, anchoring its brand value under the core tagline: a body in mōcean stays in motion.

On this vintage episode of Vitality Radio, Jared introduces two new formulas from Vitality Nutrition: Liquid Yoga and Mind Fuel. Both blends are centered on lion's mane mushroom and shilajit, combined with carefully chosen herbs and mushrooms designed to either sharpen focus or encourage calm. Jared explains why he chose spagyric extraction—an ancient process that preserves the complete profile of plant compounds and minerals—and how this method enhances absorption and balance. You'll hear about the traditions of lion's mane in Chinese medicine, the role of shilajit in Ayurveda, and the unique contributions of additional ingredients like cordyceps, suma, gotu kola, reishi, ashwagandha, tulsi, and lemon balm. Whether the goal is mental clarity, natural energy, or emotional resilience, these formulas highlight the powerful synergy between mushrooms, herbs, and minerals, bridging time-honored wisdom with modern innovation.Products:Mind Fuel - Mushroom & Herb TinctureLiquid Yoga - Mushroom & Herb TinctureVisit the podcast website here: VitalityRadio.comYou can follow @vitalitynutritionbountiful and @vitalityradio on Instagram, or Vitality Radio and Vitality Nutrition on Facebook.

Functional Diagnostic Nutrition: Using Saliva Testing, Food Sensitivity Labs, and Lifestyle to Find Root Causes: Reed Davis, Board Certified Holistic Health Practitioner (HHP) and Certified Nutritional Therapist (CNT), is founder of Functional Diagnostic Nutrition (FDN). He discusses using functional testing alongside conventional care to uncover “dysfunction” when standard labs appear normal. Davis describes assessing adrenal and metabolic stress via saliva testing for circadian cortisol patterns, cortisol-DHEA balance, sex hormones, secretory IgA, and melatonin, emphasizing clinical correlation and individualized “studies of one.” He outlines an approach targeting multiple “healing opportunities” (H-I-D-D-E-N: hormones, immune, digestion, detoxification, energy, nervous system) and applying D-R-E-S-S (diet, rest, exercise, stress reduction, supplementation) rather than relying on supplements alone. A case example links chronic hives, medication-related weight gain, and food triggers identified through additional testing, including the Mediator Release Test. The discussion also covers stress-driven gut dysbiosis, digestion decline, and EFT tapping for stress-related symptoms, and notes FDN practitioners can be found via FDNtraining.com/medicine.

On this episode, Jared introduces one of the most overlooked yet powerful herbs for supporting immune balance, inflammatory response, and overall resilience - Andrographis. Unlike typical “immune boosters,” andrographis works at a deeper, systems level—helping regulate how your immune system responds day to day. You'll learn how this traditional Ayurvedic herb supports healthy immune signaling, promotes balanced inflammatory pathways, and may be especially helpful for those dealing with chronic stress, immune imbalance, or lingering recovery issues. Jared also breaks down dosing and how to choose the right formula for your needs. If you're looking for foundational immune support rather than quick fixes, this episode will help you understand when andrographis fits—and when it doesn't.Products:Terry Naturally EP-80 Extra StrengthSolaray Andrographis ExtractTerry Naturally Andrographis & AshwagandhaVisit the podcast website here: VitalityRadio.comYou can follow @vitalitynutritionbountiful and @vitalityradio on Instagram, or Vitality Radio and Vitality Nutrition on Facebook.

What if two of the most ordinary things in your life, your cell phone and your tap water, were interacting inside your body in ways no one has ever fully explained before? In this eye-opening solo episode, Darin breaks down emerging research showing that wireless radiation and industrial toxins like chromium-6 may work together inside the body, creating a level of cellular stress and DNA damage far greater than either exposure alone. This isn't about fear, it's about awareness. Because for the first time, we're starting to understand that modern life isn't about isolated exposures… it's about combined effects happening simultaneously. From the shocking reality of contaminated water supplies to the invisible EMF environment we live in daily, Darin connects the dots between science, lifestyle, and practical action. Most importantly, he gives you a clear roadmap for reducing your exposure and strengthening your body's natural defenses, so you can live powerfully within the modern world, without being silently impacted by it.     What You'll Learn Why modern health risks are not isolated—but compounded through multiple exposures The surprising connection between cell phone radiation and chromium-6 What new research reveals about synergistic DNA damage inside cells Why current safety standards may not reflect real-world conditions How widespread chromium-6 contamination is in modern water systems The concept of "toxic load" and how it builds over time Why your body can repair damage—but only up to a certain threshold The importance of reducing exposure instead of chasing perfection How EMFs impact cellular stress responses and long-term health Practical strategies to reduce your exposure starting today     Chapters 00:00:00 – Welcome to SuperLife and the mission of building a healthier world 00:00:33 – Sponsor: the truth about NAD+ supplements and quality verification 00:02:17 – Setting intention: breathwork and grounding into the episode 00:03:08 – Introducing today's topic: cell phones, tap water, and hidden health risks 00:03:54 – New research reveals unexpected interactions inside the body 00:04:35 – How wireless radiation and chromium-6 combine inside cells 00:05:17 – Inside the Bioelectromagnetics Lab and what researchers tested 00:06:01 – Key finding: isolated exposure vs combined exposure 00:06:50 – Why "1 + 1" doesn't equal 2 in biological systems 00:07:43 – DNA fragmentation and what it means for long-term health 00:08:21 – Why current safety standards may be incomplete 00:09:01 – What chromium-6 actually is and why it matters 00:09:56 – The Erin Brockovich connection and why this is bigger than one case 00:10:09 – 200 million Americans exposed through drinking water 00:10:57 – How chromium-6 enters water systems 00:11:30 – The lack of federal regulation and what that means 00:12:00 – Why this isn't about panic: it's about awareness 00:12:37 – Chronic low-level exposure vs acute exposure 00:13:00 – Your body's repair systems—and when they get overwhelmed 00:13:11 – Sponsor: non-toxic cookware and reducing toxic exposure 00:15:01 – Introducing your "Digital Hygiene Protocol" 00:15:40 – Step 1: Creating an EMF-free sleep environment 00:16:30 – Why sleep is critical for DNA repair 00:16:58 – Step 2: Distance as your greatest protection 00:17:30 – Why proximity to your phone matters more than you think 00:18:03 – Eliminating Bluetooth exposure and switching to wired options 00:18:36 – Hardwiring your home and reducing Wi-Fi exposure 00:19:05 – Why earbuds and constant proximity increase risk 00:19:30 – Step 3: Filtering your water to remove chromium-6 00:20:00 – Reverse osmosis and why it matters 00:20:22 – Supporting your body's defense systems through nutrition 00:20:45 – Antioxidants, minerals, and detox support 00:21:10 – Adaptogens and strengthening resilience 00:21:30 – Final perspective: technology isn't the enemy—misuse is 00:22:00 – The concept of the "multi-stressor environment" 00:22:20 – Empowerment over fear: what you can control today 00:22:36 – Closing thoughts and invitation to share the message     Thank You to Our Sponsors: Our Place – Non-toxic cookware that keeps harmful chemicals out of your food.

It's not just what you're exposed to, it's how those exposures interact inside your body over time. The good news is, you don't need to eliminate everything—you just need to reduce the load. And every small, intentional choice you make moves your biology back toward balance."     Bibliography/Sources Primary Scientific Study Zhu, Y., Zhu, L., Lan, Y., Sun, C., & Chen, G. (2026).

Herbal Medicine, Quality Control, and Adulteration Prevention: Mark Blumenthal, founder and executive director of the American Botanical Council (ABC), recounts his entry into herbalism via vegetarianism in 1968, off-grid living, and starting a wholesale herb business in 1974 before shifting to nonprofit education, research, advocacy, and quality control. The discussion covers the evolution from teas and tinctures to standardized extracts, the complexity and synergy of multiple constituents, and how standardization supports quality control and therapeutic consistency. Blumenthal explains ABC's Botanical Adulterants Prevention Program and its free, peer-reviewed resources addressing global fraud, plus GMP requirements and laboratory methods for identity, contamination, and potency testing. He discusses herbs including ashwagandha, turmeric/curcumin and adulteration risks, maca, nigella, and milk thistle, and outlines ABC resources, HerbClip, and membership options at herbalgram.org.

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Mark Blumenthal, founder and executive director of the American Botanical Council (ABC).

This week I spoke with herbalist and writer Rachelle Robinett about her new book, Naturally, and some of my favorite ideas inside it: dopamine, novelty, primal motivation and strategies to regulate our nervous systems. We also talk about how the ways we distract ourselves are often attempts at a change in state and how knowing what type of state change we're craving can help us determine not only which herb to work with, but what the desire under the craving actually is. We get into her favorite herb, how she uses it as an alternative to alcohol, as well as how she's evolved within wellness culture and how she's redefining ambition now.   Show Notes / Resources / Mentions: Learn more about Rachelle Robinett on her website Follow Rachelle Robinett on IG @rachellerobinett RSVP Here to a free live event with Rachelle, Herb Club LA, and me on March 9th at 6pm.

On this episode, Jared starts a new series - Mighty Minerals! He kicks the series off by exploring lithium from a completely different perspective—not just as a psychiatric medication, but as a naturally occurring trace mineral that may play a role in mood balance, stress resilience, sleep rhythm, and cognitive support. You'll learn the difference between high-dose pharmaceutical lithium and low-dose nutritional lithium, why dosage and intent matter, and how integrative practitioners are using micro-doses as part of a broader wellness strategy. Jared also breaks down how lithium interacts with circadian rhythm, neurotransmitter signaling, and brain stability, plus how nutrients like magnesium, omega-3s, B vitamins, inositol, and adaptogenic herbs may complement it. This episode is educational and empowering, designed to help you think critically about mental wellness, trace minerals, and personal responsibility for your health.Products:KAL Lithium OrotateSolaray Lithium AspartateVisit the podcast website here: VitalityRadio.comYou can follow @vitalitynutritionbountiful and @vitalityradio on Instagram, or Vitality Radio and Vitality Nutrition on Facebook.

That "wired but tired" feeling isn't a sleep problem or even a stress problem. It's your HPA axis stuck in overdrive. Your body can't tell the difference between a work deadline and a life-threatening emergency, so your stress response never shuts off. The supplement industry knows you're burned out. That's why they're pushing adrenal cocktails, proprietary blends with pixie dust dosing, and adaptogens stacks with zero human research behind them. Dr. Christian Gonzalez cut through the noise to find the five most clinically validated adaptogens—herbs proven in randomized controlled trials to actually restore your stress response. In this episode, Dr. G breaks down: • The adaptogen that reduced cortisol by 27% in a meta-analysis of 25 human trials • Which Soviet-era herb improved VO2 max and is still used by athletes today • The "Queen of Herbs" that lowered inflammatory markers by 28% in stressed adults • Why one popular adaptogen might cause emotional flatness in certain people—and who should avoid it • The Arctic root that pulled people out of burnout in just four weeks He's ranking each adaptogen by strength of clinical evidence, walking through the mechanisms, exact dosing, who it's for, who it's not for, and the brands that actually test their products. Your adrenals aren't broken. They just need the right support. This episode gives you the clinical roadmap to get there.

As pharmaceutical companies begin rolling out anti-aging drugs for dogs, many pet parents are being told these medications can extend lifespan and prevent cognitive decline. But what are these drugs actually doing inside the body, and at what cost?In this episode, Angela sits down with Carter Easler, Director of Research and Education for CBD Dog Health and MycoDog, to break down the science behind emerging longevity drugs like rapamycin and Loyal. Carter also shares insights from coordinating the Senior Dog Study on cognitive decline, as they explore how pharmaceutical interventions compare to natural strategies that work with the body's own repair systems, including fasting, adaptogens, medicinal mushrooms, and support for the endocannabinoid system.If you have a senior dog, or want to learn about supporting your aging dog before their golden years, this is an episode you won't want to miss.Episode Recap:Angela and Carter talk about the rise of anti-aging drugs for dogs on the market, and why aging is at its core, a loss of homeostasis. (00:00)Rapamycin for dogs, what it does and why it was originally developed. (04:41)Do anti-aging drugs support longevity, or interfere with the body's natural repair processes like autophagy and cellular balance? (07:48)How fasting and restricted feeding windows naturally activate autophagy, support cellular cleanup, and may help extend lifespan in dogs. (11:10)Telomeres, “zombie cells,” and mTOR: how adaptogens, medicinal mushrooms, and hemp modulate aging pathways to support cellular balance instead of blocking the body's natural repair systems. (16:41)Why pharmaceutical “one-target” drugs can create a narrow therapeutic window and unintended side effects, while adaptogens and medicinal mushrooms support all 12 hallmarks of aging. (20:59)The 12 hallmarks of aging explained, from telomere shortening and mitochondrial dysfunction to microbiome imbalance, and how these anti aging drugs are targeting just one of these. (26:06)Why supporting the endocannabinoid system becomes increasingly important as pets grow older. (31:09)Loyal, the upcoming “anti-aging” injection for dogs, undisclosed mechanisms of action, and the importance of informed consent before new veterinary drugs reach the market. (35:20)Why proactive pet wellness should prioritize food, lifestyle, and adaptogenic plant support first, and where pharmaceuticals truly belong in veterinary care. (41:20)They dive into the science behind specific adaptogens and plant compounds, from mitochondrial support and telomere health to metabolic balance and autophagy, and why full-spectrum, whole-plant synergy matters more than isolated compounds.

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared introduces the “Magnificent Mushrooms” series. This first show gives you an overview of why medicinal mushrooms may be some of the most misunderstood tools in natural health. Instead of forcing body systems, mushrooms help educate and modulate them—supporting immune balance, gut health, brain function, and overall resilience. Jared explains the differences between fruiting body and mycelium, powders vs. extracts, fermented vs. concentrated forms, and how to choose between single and multi-mushroom formulas based on your health goals. You'll also learn why mushrooms have been used in traditional wellness practices for centuries and how to use them intelligently in modern supplementation. If you've been curious about medicinal mushrooms but feel overwhelmed by the options, this foundational episode will help you understand what they do, how they work, and how to choose wisely.Products:20% off ALL mushroom products at Vitality Nutrition until March 18, 2026 - use code: mushroomsVitality Radio POW!

Adaptogens vs. Nervines: What's the Difference? Our nervous systems are overloaded — and not all stress-support herbs work the same way. In this episode, we break down the difference between adaptogens, nervines, and mood-supporting herbs, including calming vs. stimulating adaptogens and relaxant vs. tonic nervines. We also touch on herbs like St. John's Wort, mimosa, and lemon balm for seasonal blues and low mood. If you've ever tried an herb and wondered why it didn't work, this episode will help you understand which category might actually fit your current season — and how to use them safely and thoughtfully.

You'll also learn practical tips on dosing, timing, and how rhodiola may fit into a balanced supplement routine for those navigating mental fatigue, physical stress, and demanding schedules.

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared sits down with returning guest Jamie Cotter, national educator for WishGarden Herbs, to break down immunity in a way that actually makes sense. Instead of treating the immune system as a one-size-fits-all problem, Jamie explains the four distinct phases of immunity—daily immune maintenance, early onset, active illness, and recovery—and why each phase benefits from a different herbal strategy. You'll learn how tonic herbs support baseline immune resilience, why timing and dosing matter when symptoms first appear, and how targeted herbal formulas can support the body during active immune challenges and lingering recovery phases. This episode empowers listeners to better understand their own immune responses and make informed choices about herbal support, seasonal wellness routines, and immune preparedness—without fear, hype, or guesswork.Products Discussed:Daily ImmuneKick-Ass ImmuneSerious V-FighterDeep LungKick-Ass BioticGet Over It!Buy 4 or more Wishgarden products from HERE and get 25% off through March 7, 2026!Visit the podcast website here: VitalityRadio.comYou can follow @vitalitynutritionbountiful and @vitalityradio on Instagram, or Vitality Radio and Vitality Nutrition on Facebook.
