If you've ever said, “I know my patterns — so why can't I change them?” the answer may not be in your mind, but in your body. On this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I sit down with Dr. Nicole LePera, The Holistic Psychologist, to explore how early experiences become your body's default state—shaping your stress response, your relationships, and your risk for chronic disease. Watch the full conversation on YouTube or listen wherever you get your podcasts. In this conversation, you'll learn: • How to recognize when your body is stuck in stress — even if your mind says you're “fine” • Why people-pleasing, overworking, or shutting down can become your default response • What simple daily practices can calm your nervous system and support long-term health • How creating safety in your body improves sleep, energy, and stress recovery When you create safety in your body, you don't just change your mood. You change your biology, your relationships, and your capacity to heal.

Lee, MD delivers a focused solo transmission on the distortion of modern twin flame teachings, the mechanics of trauma bonding, and the sacred science of rebuilding love through the 12th dimensional avatar Christos template. He explores how relationship patterns form through early imprinting, how frequency resonance shapes attraction, and how the Azure ray point supports wholeness before partnership. The conversation also introduces eternal union arc codes as a pathway toward love rooted in coherence, devotion, and truth.Dr. Lee shares how emotional intensity can be misread as spiritual alignment. He emphasizes nervous system regulation and direct connection to Source as foundations for lasting union. This episode covers attachment wounds, subconscious programming, lineage trauma, and phantom soulmate projections. It also offers practical relational tools, including consistent communication rituals and inner work that restores safety in the body. The episode closes with a guided meditation to strengthen the tri-wave field and embody sacred union from overflow.Sacred Truths & Lessons from This Episode:• Wholeness Begins Within the Azure Ray Point• Frequency Resonance Shapes Attraction and Relationship Patterns• Trauma Bonding Often Comes From Early Nervous System Imprinting• Love and Truth Move Together Through Coherence• Sacred Union Supports Authenticity, Not Self-Abandonment• Eternal Union Arc Codes Invite Co-Creation and Shared Mission
Most people think lab tests are only useful once something is wrong. But what if your blood work could show you where your health is headed—years before disease ever develops? In today's Office Hours, I break down how to read your labs through a functional medicine lens—so you can spot early dysfunction, connect the dots between symptoms and biomarkers, and take control of your health before problems escalate. In this episode, I walk you through: • Why “normal” lab ranges often miss early warning signs • The key markers that reveal the most about metabolic health, inflammation, thyroid function, nutrients, and cardiovascular risk • How functional medicine focuses on optimal ranges, patterns, and trends—not just disease thresholds • What your labs can tell you about symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, weight gain, and gut issues • How to track your numbers over time and ask smarter questions to shift from reaction to prevention Labs aren't just for diagnosing disease—they're a roadmap to optimizing your future health. When you understand your numbers, you stop guessing and start making data-driven decisions that build resilience and longevity. Visit functionhealth.com for 160+ lab tests at just $365 a year.

After two recent shootings in my small mountain town, one at the local high school and another at the rec center, I felt called inward. In this episode, I open up about my childhood experience with Mormon fasting, the shame I carried around breaking a fast, and why I avoided fasting for years even though I understood the health benefits of detox, prayer, and intentional restriction.I also talk about how I am supporting my body safely with electrolytes, minerals, and a low calorie approach to help stimulate autophagy, along with what I am noticing from caffeine withdrawal, energy shifts, and sleep changes. More than anything, this episode is about nervous system regulation, spiritual fasting, resilience after trauma, and choosing love when the world feels upside down.

For much of our lives, performance is measured in speed, strength, and output. As we get older, the equation changes. On this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I sit down with Sir David Beckham and Dr. Dawn Mussallem to explore what elite sport, stage IV cancer, and heart transplantation can teach us about prevention—and what it really takes to sustain health over time. Watch the full conversation on YouTube or listen wherever you get your podcasts. Together, we explore: • Why your health trajectory is more changeable than you've been taught—especially after 40 • How sleep, stress, and metabolic health quietly shape your long-term disease risk • Which daily habits give you the biggest return on investment over decades • How to build resilience now so your body supports you later The real measure of health isn't what you can achieve in your 20s or 30s. It's the resilience you build so your body supports you for decades to come.

Lee, MD takes you on a multidimensional journey into the healing power of music, the physics of sound becoming light, and the truth that you are a living note in the great symphony of Source. From childhood memories of watching his stoic father soften through music to working in Alzheimer's units where forgotten memories returned through song, Dr. Lee reveals why sound bypasses the thinking mind and goes straight to the soul.He shares how music isn't just entertainment—it is living technology. This episode dives deep into scalar waves, morphogenetic fields, the base-12 eternal life architecture, and how sound carries intention, memory, and timelines, providing inspiration and practical wisdom for those seeking healing, remembrance, and alignment with their highest timeline.You'll discover why trauma is “frozen light,” how chanting can recalibrate your DNA, why your voice is a living stargate, and how authenticity harmonizes you with the cosmic choir. Dr. Lee also explores how music can either heal or scramble consciousness—and why speaking your truth in love is one of the most powerful acts of spiritual leadership.Sacred Truths & Lessons from This Episode:• Music Bypasses the Mind and Heals the Soul• Sound Becomes Light—and Light Shapes Your Reality• Your Voice Carries DNA Codes, Memory & Intention• Time Doesn't Move in Lines—It Spirals• You Are a Living Note in Source's Divine Symphony• Authentic Sound Re-Tones the Planetary Grid
Injury has a way of humbling you. One minute you're strong and capable, and the next you're struggling to do the simplest things—walking, sleeping, even brushing your teeth. I know this firsthand. After six back surgeries and more than a few serious setbacks, I've learned that healing isn't something you wait for—it's something you actively create. In today's Office Hours, I share what I've learned not just as a doctor, but as a patient who worked his way back to strength offering a practical roadmap for putting your body into healing mode after an accident, injury, or surgery. In today's conversation, I cover: • The 3 phases of healing—and what slows them down • The essential recovery nutrition strategy (more protein, key micronutrients, anti-inflammatory fats) • How to reduce excess inflammation while supporting repair • Why sleep, stress regulation, and mitochondrial health are critical for recovery • The mindset shift that can dramatically improve pain, resilience, and healing outcomes Healing isn't luck—it's biology. When you create the right conditions, your body knows exactly what to do. With the right inputs, you can reduce pain, shorten recovery time, and come back stronger than before.

If we want to fix food, we have to fix the institutions shaping what our kids eat every day. Public schools are effectively the largest restaurant chain in America, serving 30 million children. For many of them, school meals account for half of their daily calories. And yet, a majority of those calories still come from ultra-processed food. On this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I sit down with Nora LaTorre, CEO of Eat Real, to talk about why the school cafeteria may be the most powerful lever we have to reverse the childhood health crisis—and why change is already happening faster than most people think. Watch the full conversation on YouTube or listen wherever you get your podcasts. Today we discuss: • Why school food policy affects your family • How removing added sugar from school menus can change focus, behavior, and long-term health • Why school lunch participation rises when districts upgrade to real food • How changing school procurement reshapes local farms and food systems • What you can do as a parent to influence your district In less than two years, Eat Real–partnered districts are proving that real food can scale across red states, blue states, rural communities, and major cities. When procurement changes, farms change, and when menus change, our children have a better chance to thrive.

Lee, MD dives deep into one of the most misunderstood—and most important—spiritual phenomena of our time: the Timeline Split. This rare planetary event, which began around the year 2000 and accelerated after 2012, marks a profound polarization of frequencies on Earth. From the metaphor of a wooden bridge versus a crystalline bridge to the science of frequency, vibration, and morphogenetic fields, Dr. Lee unpacks what humanity is collectively moving through right now.Dr. Lee explores why many people feel disconnected from old conversations, relationships, and systems—and why that doesn't mean you're broken. He explains how this bifurcation is rooted in quantum morphogenetic physics, ancient eternal life wisdom, and cycles that occur only during critical planetary thresholds. This episode offers clarity, grounding, and reassurance for anyone sensing that reality itself feels different.You'll learn how coherence, forgiveness, and conscious choice determine which “bridge” you're walking on, why fear is unnecessary, and how aligning with love and truth naturally shifts your lived experience. The episode closes with a powerful meditation designed to bring your body, mind, and spirit back into coherence—anchoring you into sovereignty, presence, and peace.Sacred Truths & Lessons from This Episode:• You're Not Crazy—You're Sensing a Frequency Shift• Reality Is Dividing by Coherence, Not Morality• Frequency Determines the Timeline You Experience• Forgiveness and Truth Create Scalar Ripples• Coherence Is Sovereignty, Presence Is Power• You Are the Bridge Between Heaven and Earth
For years, we've been told that overeating is a problem of willpower, and if we just tried harder, we'd eat less and feel better. But the science tells a very different story. In today's Office Hours, I reframe the conversation around cravings and overeating—replacing shame and self-blame with science, clarity, and practical solutions. In this episode I share: • Why food addiction is driven by brain chemistry, not lack of discipline • How ultra-processed foods are designed to override satiety and keep you craving more • What the “bliss point” is and how Big Food engineers addictive foods on purpose • The link between hyperpalatable foods, chronic disease, and the healthcare crisis • Practical steps to reset your brain, reduce cravings, and break free When you understand how modern food is designed to override your biology, everything changes. You stop blaming yourself and start reclaiming your health with real, nourishing food and the right support. Visit functionhealth.com for 160+ lab tests at just $365 a year.

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend! I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks… Sonja: Dr Cabral thank you so much for all of the wonderful education you have been sharing with us over the years to help us be healthier. My family and I greatly appreciate it along with so many others around the world! I am a 60 year old woman who was diagnosed with hemochromatosis about 2 and 1/2 years ago. Thanks to the minerals and metals test that I completed which raised a red flag on the iron level, I was able to get my doctor to do a ferritin blood test to find out that my level was at 725! Over the past couple of years, I have been working with a hematologist and getting therapeutic phlebotomies as needed. I eat clean, workout and have an overall healthy lifestyle with minimal alcohol consumption. I do a 7-Day Detox 3 to 4 times a year, daily DNS shake along with multiple Equilife supplements. My question to you is - if I was your aunt what protocols or recommendations would you have for me? I would love to reverse the diagnosis of hemochromatosis. In addition, what would be the ferritin range that you would recommend? My hematologist wants it as low as possible (around 30) however my energy is very low when it's at the levels that he desires. Thank you so much for everything that you do. Sonja Peter: Hi Dr. Cabral, Thanks for the great work you do and your books! I'm generally in good health and currently not on any medications. For the past 2–3 years I've been very consistent with lifestyle habits: clean diet, training 5–6x/week (3x strength, 2x cardio, 1x HIIT), no alcohol, consistent sleep schedule, sauna ~3x/week, and daily bowel movements. Despite this, I've experienced low libido for several years. It fluctuates, but I haven't been able to identify clear triggers or improvements. A few years ago, blood work showed elevated prolactin. My doctor prescribed Dostinex (dopamine agonist), which resolved libido symptoms effectively, but felt too strong. I'd prefer to identify and address the underlying cause rather than suppress symptoms. Recent blood work again shows elevated prolactin and elevated SHBG. Free testosterone is low. Blood sugar is within range but not optimal given my lifestyle. LDL is also elevated. Primary symptoms • Low libido (low initial drive, rare or absent morning erections) • Skin issues for ~1.5 years (none prior): – Redness on chin and temples, flaring after meals and after B-complex supplements – Small forehead bumps resembling acne that appear and disappear within a day Secondary symptoms • Slightly flat mood • Low muscle gain relative to training effort • Occasional cold hands • Frequent urination (including at night) • Low evening energy • Reduced interest in socializing I've tried various supplements over time but without a clear framework or plan. I'm hoping you could share your thoughts on possible root causes and what testing or protocol you would prioritize. Thank you for your work and guidance! Best, Peter Michelle: Hi Stephen, I've experienced sensitivity to Equilife's Florafilm & another brand of proteolytic enzymes (nausea & vomiting). I have no allergies and have never experienced a negative reaction to a supplement. I am in overall good health and not on any medication and was wondering what might be causing such a reaction? I tried taking just one of the capsules instead of two on an empty stomach and experienced similar side effects. Is this product by chance enteric coated? I read that could help prevent side effects. Lastly is there a product you could recommend in its place to help remove biofilms so that the Para Support protocol will continue to be most effective? I found a product that contains Bismuth Subnitrate, Alpha lipoic Acid and Black Cumin (Priority One Biolm). Would it be ok to take this product in place of the Florafilm? I have been taking just one capsule of it with no side effects (product recommends 2 capsules 4 days a week) or is there a better solution as I do want to do some other Equilife protocols and noticed they also contain the Florafilm product. I love your Podcast and Equilife products and disappointed this one doesn't work for me. Thank you for all you do! Larissa: Hello Dr Cabral. My 4yrs old son is allergic to dogs, I suspect the saliva. When he pets a dog nothing happens but when a dog licks him or his hands and he touches his face, that area gets red and swollen within minutes. Is this common? Is it possible this will go away? Is there a way to test him for this and more importantly treat him for this? I've heard of the NAET protocol, do you recommend this? Appreciate any advice!

Too often, we focus on treating symptoms without fully understanding the systems underneath them—or the conditions that allow the body to function well in the first place. On this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I sit down with Fidji Simo, CEO of Applications at OpenAI, to explore how AI could help us shift medicine from treating symptoms to restoring systems. We talk about why chronic illness is so often misunderstood, how health data has been fragmented across silos, and what becomes possible when we finally see the full picture. Watch the full conversation on YouTube or listen wherever you get your podcasts. In this episode, you'll learn: • Why having a diagnosis doesn't always explain what's actually driving your symptoms • How connecting your labs, lifestyle data, and health history can reveal patterns you might otherwise miss • What it looks like to move from reactive care to proactive, personalized health • How better context can help you make clearer decisions about food, sleep, movement, and recovery Health isn't built in a doctor's office. When you create the right environment, the body often knows what to do—and understanding your own biology is one of the most powerful steps you can take toward creating health, not just reacting to disease.

Free DNA Activation Masterclass + 21-Day Abundance Meditation: https://masterclass.samuelbleemd.com/dnaPeptides I use personally to regenerate, heal, and stay sharp: https://limitlesslivingmd.com/samuelIn this powerful solo episode, Dr. Samuel B. Lee, MD delivers a deep, soul-level transmission on why your nervous system is the true foundation of your mission, wealth, healing, and spiritual embodiment. If you've ever felt called to something bigger but noticed your body tightening, freezing, or burning out, this episode reveals why.From Dr. Lee's personal journey through nervous system collapse, trauma, and awakening, to the science and spirituality of regulation, embodiment, and coherence, this conversation bridges modern psychiatry, ancient wisdom, and multidimensional truth. You'll discover why manifestation techniques alone don't work, how trauma blocks abundance at the biological level, and why safety, not hustle, is the gateway to expansion.Dr. Lee explains how the nervous system acts as the conduit between Source and the physical body, why lightworkers burn out without embodiment, and how true service, wealth, and leadership require the capacity to hold intensity without fragmentation. He also introduces practical tools for regulation, including breath, movement, sound, and co-regulation so your body can finally receive what your soul has been calling in.This episode is an initiation into nervous system mastery for those who feel called to lead, heal, and build in the next chapter of humanity.Sacred Truths & Lessons from This Episode:• Your mission can only grow to the level your nervous system can safely hold• Manifestation fails when the body is dysregulated, even if the intention is pure• Trauma is frozen energy, and regulation is the key to releasing it• Wealth, leadership, and service require nervous system coherence, not hustle• Breath, movement, and sound are the fastest ways to shift your state• Co-regulation is one of the most powerful healing technologies on Earth
For decades, we've been told that high cholesterol is the main driver of heart disease—and that lowering LDL should be the primary goal. But as science has evolved, so has my thinking. In today's Office Hours, I explain why cholesterol alone doesn't tell the full story, what most doctors still aren't testing, and what's really driving heart disease for the majority of people. Today we discuss: • Why many people have heart attacks despite “normal” LDL cholesterol • The difference between cholesterol levels and cholesterol particles • How inflammation and insulin resistance fuel heart disease • Why sugar and refined starches are more dangerous than fat • The most important labs to assess real cardiovascular risk • What ApoB, lipoprotein(a), and triglyceride-to-HDL ratio reveal about your health • How metabolic dysfunction—not cholesterol alone—drives plaque buildup Heart disease is far more complex than a single lab value. When you understand the role of metabolic health, inflammation, and the right biomarkers, you can take meaningful steps to protect your heart and long-term health.

Around the world, we're seeing declining sperm counts, rising infertility, more erectile dysfunction, and lower testosterone—even in younger men. These trends aren't just affecting family planning; they're pointing to something much bigger happening in men's health. Joining me today on The Dr. Hyman Show is Dr. Michael Eisenberg, a Stanford researcher and leading voice in male reproductive health. We talk about why sperm quality matters far beyond fertility—and how everyday health choices quietly shape it. Watch the full conversation on YouTube or listen wherever you get your podcasts.

On this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I sit down with Dr. Robert Hedaya, a psychiatrist who has spent decades working at the intersection of biology, brain function, and mental health. His approach starts with a different question than most psychiatry asks: what's interfering with the brain's ability to regulate, adapt, and repair itself? We talk about why many mental health diagnoses describe symptoms without explaining causes—and how measuring brain function, energy, and network activity is opening the door to more precise, individualized care. Watch the full conversation on YouTube or listen wherever you get your podcasts. [YOUTUBE THUMBNAIL] We discuss: • How biological imbalances can drive anxiety, depression, and cognitive symptoms • Why many “treatment-resistant” mental health issues have overlooked root causes • How brain energy and mitochondrial function influence mood and cognition • What advanced brain mapping reveals about how your brain is actually working For far too long, mental health care has focused on managing symptoms in isolation. This discussion looks at what becomes possible when we treat the brain as part of the whole system and support its ability to heal.

Nobody is talking about this… but they will.In this powerful 100th episode of The Spiritual Psychiatrist Podcast, Dr. Samuel B. Lee, MD welcomes Andrew William Macdonald, a former firefighter-turned-global teacher of equity law, for a groundbreaking conversation about spiritual sovereignty, freedom from the matrix, and the bridge between God's law and man's systems.After losing everything fighting the government in what he calls “patriot warfare,” Andrew discovered a forgotten legal pathway known as equity—a frequency-based approach that honors natural law without fighting or resisting the system. Over the past 25+ years, he and his wife Sandra have walked this path, embodying a life of true sovereignty and teaching others around the world how to do the same.In this episode, Andrew shares how the power of your signature can bind or free you, how to live in peace without being walked on, and why equity is the law of honor, not resistance. Dr. Sam and Andrew unpack the energetic and legal layers of the matrix, helping you understand how to navigate the 3D system while staying anchored in the divine.This is more than a legal loophole—it's a spiritual frequency shift.Sacred Truths & Lessons from This Episode:• Equity is the bridge between natural law and man-made law• What you fight, you become—honor is the true path to sovereignty• Your signature is your most valuable asset in this system• Contracts often override your God-given rights—unless you know how to respond• Asking the right questions compels the right performance• Freedom is a frequency, not just a status
In this Office Hours episode, I break down what the government finally got right about food, where the new guidelines still fall short, and—most importantly—how to apply them in real life without confusion or overwhelm. For the first time in decades, there's meaningful progress: a recognition that ultra-processed foods are harming us, that protein matters for optimal health, and that nutrition isn't one-size-fits-all. But there's still work to do. In this episode, I break down: • Why calling out ultra-processed foods is the most important—and historic—shift in the new guidelines • What the new protein recommendations actually mean for everyday people • Why the low-fat era is finally ending—and why whole foods matter more than isolated nutrients • Where the guidelines still fall short, including saturated fat limits, whole grain recommendations, and lack of personalization • How to apply the guidelines to kids and families without perfection or overwhelm • Why chronic disease is a policy problem—not a personal failure The new dietary guidelines are a foundation, not a finish line. Use them as a starting point: focus on food quality, reduce ultra-processed foods, prioritize protein, and personalize your choices based on how your body responds.

Longevity isn't just about what you eat or how you train—it's really more about whether you believe your body is worth investing in. On this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I'm joined by my longtime friend and colleague Dr. Gabrielle Lyon to explore why muscle may be one of the most overlooked drivers of long-term health. We focus on practical, accessible ways to build strength as you age, and why muscle plays a much bigger role in your health than most people realize. We explore: • How strength training supports your blood sugar and metabolic health, beyond what the scale can show • Why muscle quality—not weight—is a stronger predictor of long-term health • How building strength helps you stay mobile, capable, and resilient as you age • What most people miss about protein and muscle health Aging well is something you can actively support, starting with how you care for your body today. And strength is one of the most powerful places you can begin.

In this episode, Dr. Samuel B. Lee, MD unpacks one of humanity's most profound—and most distorted—mysteries: what happens after we die. Drawing from sacred remembrance, personal revelation, and ancient eternal life teachings, Dr. Lee reveals the hidden truth behind the tunnel of light, the reincarnation loop, and the soul recycling systems that trap over 85% of souls after death.This is not about fear—it's about freedom. Dr. Lee shares a powerful eternal life perspective that reclaims the organic passage home through the Azuray Point and the 13 Eternal Gates—bypassing false light systems, karma-based judgment, and spiritual distortion.You'll learn why "dying before you die" is the true path to living fully—and how to prepare your soul for a sovereign return to Source without distortion, fragmentation, or forgetting.Sacred Truths & Lessons from This Episode:• Death is not real—it's a transition of consciousness• The “light” most people follow is a synthetic trap• The Azuray Point is the true organic doorway home• Reincarnation is a distortion of the original Source spiral• You are the flame—you don't need a middleman• Preparation before death ensures a sovereign return
What Should I Actually Eat? Diet confusion is everywhere. But the truth is, there's no one-size-fits-all diet. The best diet is the one that works for your biology. In this Office Hours episode, I answer your most common diet questions and break down the core principles everyone should understand before choosing how to eat. In this episode I break down: • Why the “best diet” is personalized—and why ideology should never override biology • The universal principles everyone should follow, regardless of diet • Why ultra-processed foods—not carbs, fat, or protein—are the real problem • How blood sugar dysregulation drives chronic disease, including mental health issues • Keto, paleo, vegan, and Mediterranean: who they help, common mistakes, and what to watch for • How to tell if your diet is working—using symptoms, energy, digestion, mood, and labs Your body is the smartest doctor in the room.

On this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I'm rejoined by psychiatrist and Harvard professor Dr. Chris Palmer for a conversation that challenges how we've been taught to think about mental illness. For decades, psychiatry has focused on managing symptoms—often without asking what's actually driving them. We discuss a different way of understanding mental health, one that looks beyond diagnostic labels and considers how whole-body biology influences brain function, resilience, and recovery. Watch the full conversation on YouTube or listen wherever you get your podcasts. In this conversation, we explore: • Why mental illness is rising alongside obesity, diabetes, and other chronic diseases • How whole-body biology influences mood, focus, and emotional resilience • The link between inflammation, metabolic dysfunction, and conditions like depression and bipolar disorder • How nutrition, testing, and lifestyle changes can support real recovery If mental health has ever felt close to home for you or someone you care about, this conversation is meant to offer clarity, compassion, and a place to start.

The Sacred Science of Birth: How Souls Choose Their ParentsIn this extraordinary solo transmission, Dr. Samuel B. Lee, MD, opens the multidimensional gateway to a mystery hidden in plain sight: how and why souls incarnate on Earth. This is not just about pregnancy or parenting—it's about frequency, choice, and divine architecture.What if conception isn't random? What if every soul is born by sacred covenant, not biology alone? In this powerful episode, Dr. Lee dives into the original Eternal Life CDT Plate Teachings to reveal the Azuray Point—the 8th chakra, the zero point, the stillness where soul contracts are made before birth, sometimes lifetimes in advance.From personal stories of karmic healing to the conception of his own incoming daughter, Dr. Lee shares the cosmic mechanics of soul embodiment, conception as scalar alignment, and how the mother's womb is a living Stargate—Stargate 13.This is for conscious parents, doulas, birthworkers, or anyone seeking to understand the deeper spiritual science behind how and why a soul chooses to be born now.Sacred Truths & Lessons from This Episode:• Birth is a cosmic covenant, not just a biological event• Souls enter by vibrational agreement—never by force• The Azuray Point holds the soul's pre-birth contract• Miscarriages are sacred pauses, not failures• The womb mirrors Stargate 13—every mother is a portal• Parenting is planetary service; conscious conception matters
Most of us don't realize how much alcohol affects our bodies until we take a break. In this first episode of Office Hours, I break down what really happens when you give up alcohol for 30 days. Alcohol impacts nearly every system—from your brain and hormones to your gut, liver, and immune system—but the good news is your body begins repairing itself far faster than most people expect. I discuss: • What alcohol really is—and why the “buzz” is actually your brain slowing down• How alcohol affects neurotransmitters like GABA, dopamine, and glutamate• Why even moderate drinking disrupts sleep, mood, hormones, and metabolism• How alcohol impacts the liver, gut microbiome, immune system, and cancer risk• Why hangovers feel like the flu—and what's actually happening in your body• What happens when you stop drinking, week by week, from detox to deep repair• The surprising benefits to energy, focus, skin, sleep, and emotional resilience• Practical tools to manage cravings, social pressure, and sleep disruption• Why community support makes behavior change easier and more sustainable Your body has an incredible ability to heal and often, it just needs you to take your foot off the gas. Try it for 30 days. You may be amazed by how different you feel.

This week, in another holiday edition of The Dr. Hyman Show, I'm highlighting a conversation with Dr. Rhonda Patrick, a leading expert in nutritional science and aging — a discussion that still feels incredibly important today. We dig into how hidden micronutrient deficiencies can influence metabolism, mood, longevity, and long-term health. Here's to supporting our health in the year ahead. In this episode, you'll learn: • Why vitamin D is essential for longevity, immune health, and mood • How magnesium influences metabolism, blood sugar, and brain function • Why even “healthy” diets can leave us undernourished • What it takes to test and personalize your micronutrient intake Better aging starts by giving your cells what they're missing. When your body has the right nutrients, it can repair, renew, and thrive at any stage of life. Here's to a healthy start to the new year — I'm excited for what we'll explore together.

What if I told you you're already it?In this soul-awakening solo transmission, Dr. Samuel B. Lee, MD unpacks the deeper science and spirit of manifestation through the lens of eternal life wisdom, frequency embodiment, and quantum materialization. This isn't about the “law of attraction” as you've heard it. It's about becoming the frequency of what you seek—and remembering that what you seek is already seeking you.From revealing why traditional manifestation methods often fall short to decoding the sacred mechanics of the Kathara Grid, base pulse rhythm, and liquid light DNA, Dr. Lee takes us on a multidimensional deep dive into how eternal source energy flows—and how we can align with it to co-create a new reality from the inside out.This episode explores radical truths about identity, divine embodiment, and the true power of your scalar sound tones and water—the memory carrier of your eternal self.
This week, in a special holiday edition of The Dr. Hyman Show, I'm revisiting a powerful conversation with Dr. Aseem Malhotra, a leading cardiologist and advocate for ethical, evidence-based medicine, where we unpacked the uncomfortable truths about cholesterol, statins, and what really drives heart disease. Wishing you a peaceful holiday week. We unpack: • Why LDL cholesterol isn't the whole story when it comes to heart disease • How reducing inflammation and insulin resistance can better protect your heart • What statins can—and can't—do to improve real cardiovascular outcomes • How industry influence shapes the prescriptions patients receive Better heart health starts with better information and real progress begins when we stop treating numbers and start treating what's actually causing disease. Hope you have a peaceful holiday week. I look forward to continuing this journey together in the new year.

In this sacred solo transmission, Dr. Samuel B. Lee invites you into the true story of Christmas—a story buried beneath centuries of distortion, commercialization, and religious control. Rooted in the CDT Plates and transcribed by Ashayana Deane in 2001, this epic retelling unveils the hidden spiritual blueprint behind the birth of Jeshua, the 12th-Level Avatar.More than a tale of a manger and wise men, this episode reveals the Christos Seeding Mission, the Ecotic Trinity, and the soul-braided walk-ins of six Ekar avatars encoded to carry the High Veca and Viveka codes—the original divine templates for Earth's planetary awakening.Dr. Lee transmits the frequencies encoded within this powerful mythos, breaking down ancient lineages, Stargate technology, and the role of the 144,000 Team Indigo incarnates in Earth's DNA gridwork and ascension timeline. From the sacrifice of the Little Drummer Boy to the gridwork of Kauai and Stonehenge, this is the story of Christmas the world was never meant to remember—until now.The truth will set us free. And the Christos Reclamation Mission?It's on like Donkey Kong.
Wellness can feel complicated, but most of what matters for long, healthy living is surprisingly simple. In this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I sit down with my longtime friend Dr. Ezekiel “Zeke” Emanuel—oncologist, bioethicist, and author of Eat Your Ice Cream—to explore six core principles that support longevity, from food and movement to social connection and purpose. Zeke shares what we're getting wrong about wellness, why community matters more than we think, and how small choices can reshape both our health and our healthcare system. Watch the full conversation on YouTube or listen wherever you get your podcasts. We discuss: • Why simple habits outperform extreme biohacks—and how to build them into daily life • How social connection protects your health as powerfully as diet and exercise • What to eat for longevity without tracking, restricting, or following trends • How movement, strength, and flexibility each support long-term health and function • What actually improves sleep when you can't “try harder” to rest Longevity isn't about obsession. It's about balance, community, and simple choices. The basics still work, and they matter more than ever.

What if I told you… grace isn't earned — it's remembered?In this solo transmission, Dr. Samuel B. Lee, MD invites you into a healing frequency that transcends striving, performance, and perfectionism: the living wave of grace. This episode is an energetic transmission — a sacred reminder that you are already whole, already loved, already source, and there is nothing to fix.Dr. Lee unpacks how grace functions not as mercy or forgiveness, but as a spontaneous scalar wave — a quantum coherence event between your incarnate self and your eternal Rishi Self. He vulnerably shares how unconscious childhood patterns of performance-based love shaped his drive for achievement, and how a moment of divine grace in Kauai dissolved lifetimes of striving into stillness, spaciousness, and sacred remembering.You'll journey through powerful metaphysical insights, poetic prayers, and cosmic remembrance as Dr. Lee reveals how grace re-maps karmic imprints, stabilizes the nervous system, and returns you to the frequency of wholeness — because you couldn't mess this up even if you tried.This episode is more than words — it's an invitation to pause, soften, and become receptive to the field of grace that's already here.
Ready to feel better than you ever have? Here are five ways to your best health in 2026—simple shifts that work faster than most people realize: food as medicine, restorative sleep, stress mastery, daily movement, and periodic detox resets. Eating real, whole foods sends powerful healing signals to your gut, hormones, and genes, while avoiding processed foods removes the biggest drivers of inflammation. Quality sleep and stress-lowering practices help rebalance cortisol so you can think clearly, feel calmer, and have steady energy throughout the day. Moving your body strengthens your metabolism, protects your brain, and keeps you functional as you age. And short detox periods that remove sugar and processed foods while adding nutrient-dense meals can reboot your entire system and show you just how good “normal” is supposed to feel. When you bring these five pillars together you create momentum that touches every part of your life. In this episode, I highlight how five simple foundations—food, sleep, stress management, movement, and detox—can completely transform your health, showing that you have far more power to heal and thrive than you've ever been told.

That tells me you are on the path of taking care of yourself, and that is an essential first step.

In today's episode of How Humans Heal I'm talking with Heather Aardema. She is the founder of the School of Living Lighter and is a Board Certified Decluttering Coach who helps people understand what's underneath the reason for clutter using a holistic approach. I'm so glad to have her here with us to help us understand what a different it can make and how to get started. Needing to declutter is quite common. I, myself have been going through a decluttering process the past couple of years while rebuilding my house, so I know firsthand how valuable it is. And I was talking to a patient the other day whose daughter recently went to college. She was experiencing "empty nest syndrome" and found herself looking around her home thinking "what is all this stuff doing here?" When we realize that our desk is piled with stuff and the drawers are overfilled, that's when we know we need to declutter. To some degree, it's part of the human experience because we're so busy keeping up with life. When we finally go through a change that allows us to take time to look around our space, that's when we realize that we have too much stuff and need to declutter. But what if all the clutter is having a negative impact on our health and out life? What if we become intentional about decluttering? What kinds of shifts could happen when we get to the bottom of the pile and create space? Heather shares that it can make a massive difference in our day-to-day life when we address our clutter. The clutter feels heavy, and it's not just a feeling. There's physiology to clutter. If we perceive it, our cortisol is going to go through the roof. Our stuff is more energy than matter, and it really can make an impact on how we show up, the decisions that we make, and the way we live our lives. We're here to help you!

Most people think high blood pressure is just about “bad pipes,” but it's really a whole–body problem driven by inflammation, insulin resistance, and years of eating sugary, processed foods. Hidden problems like sleep apnea, belly fat, toxins, and not getting enough key nutrients slowly damage your blood vessels and raise the risk of heart attacks, strokes, kidney failure, and memory loss. Instead of simply pushing the numbers down with medication, the Functional Medicine approach looks for the real “why” behind high blood pressure in each person—food choices, sleep, stress, genetics, environment, and more. By rebuilding health with real food and targeted nutrients, better sleep, movement, and stress relief, many of these root causes can be reversed or improved. The message is clear: high blood pressure isn't destiny, and with the right changes, the body often has a powerful ability to heal. In this episode, I speak about, along with Dr. George Papanicolaou and Dr. Cindy Geyer, how high blood pressure is largely driven by inflammation and lifestyle factors, but with some foundational changes it can be reversed. Dr. George Papanicolaou is a graduate of the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine and is Board Certified in Family Medicine from Abington Memorial Hospital. Over time as the healthcare system made it harder for patients to receive personal care, Dr. Papanicolaou decided a change was needed. He began training in Functional Medicine through the Institute of Functional Medicine. In 2015, he established Cornerstone Personal Health—a practice dedicated entirely to Functional Medicine. In August 2017, Dr. Papanicolaou joined The UltraWellness Center. Dr. Cindy Geyer received her bachelor of science and her doctor of medicine degrees, with honors, from the Ohio State University. She completed residency in internal medicine at Strong Memorial Hospital in Rochester, N.Y. and is triple board certified in internal medicine, integrative medicine and lifestyle medicine.

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend! I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks… Gaby: Hello Dr. Cabral, Thanks for your work you're doing! And sorry for the long question. I am a 19 year old female, and have been struggling with gut issues since I was a baby. Bloating, constipation, diarrhea, gas, nausea, and so forth. I have had functional medicine and conventional bloodwork done. My progesterone tested low and also my estrogen was low. I have the symptoms of very high androgens/testosterone, despite conventional testing showing normal levels. Been diagnosed with low cortisol/adrenal fatigue. My thyroid panels are good. I have struggled with very low B12 vitamins (maybe from not knowing that I had MTHFR). I've had severe menstrual cramps ever since getting married recently. I can't afford more testing, but am wondering how this all connects? Liz: Hi Dr. Cabral, I have a very large fluid-filled, non-malignant cyst on my thyroid. When I swallow it looks like a golf ball is in there. Doctor said it's nothing to worry about. All my thyroid labs, including antibodies, came back normal. Food sensitivity test I had a couple years ago showed dairy and eggs being a problem and they were a big part of my diet for the past couple of years until recently. Am currently in week 1 of your 21 Day Detox. My question is, is there any way to shrink or eliminate the cyst without having a procedure? Thanks! Noah: Hi Dr. Cabral, I'm 24 and recently recovered from mono, but I've been feeling exhausted ever since—almost like my body can't fully bounce back. My doctor says it's just "post-viral fatigue," but I'm wondering if there's more to it, like EBV reactivation or mitochondrial depletion. What would be your next step to rebuild energy naturally? Eleazar: Hello dr cabral i have a question about my post viral pots i have been dealing with since January of 2024 and how you would try to fix it. my question is if a viral infection which are normal and everyone gets caused this autoimmune reaction what exactly would u target to fix the autoimmunity if the virus is gone and there isnt much to remove unlike other cases of autoimmunity where a gut dysbiosis or heavy metals is causing the disease u know what to remove I hope that makes sense thank you for your time and videos u put they are very informative Eleazar: Hello dr Cabral i have another question regarding autoimmune disease i am a 21 year old male and soon i will be fixing all my root causes for my suspected autoimmune pots disease. I have completed the big 5 but my question is will i ever be able to drink alcohol again like beer for example or will it always be a risk for reactivating the autoimmune disease i see many functional medicine doctors say only 1-2 beverages but does it really have to be just that amount or can u drink more also i heard u mentioned binge drinking can cause epigenetic immune shift what exactly is that and can it be fixed and if i do drink will i need to avoid eating fast food at the same time even if its on occasion.thank you for the amazing videos u do Thank you for tuning into this weekend's Cabral HouseCalls and be sure to check back tomorrow for our Mindset & Motivation Monday show to get your week started off right! - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/3579 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?

I've seen so many patients struggle with fatigue, brain fog, and burnout, and this conversation gave me a new way of thinking about why that happens and how to approach it. On this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I'm joined by Dr. Martin Picard, a Columbia scientist studying how energy flows through the body, and what that flow means for how we think, feel, and age. We touch on a simple idea that could reframe the way you understand your own energy, and how your daily choices influence it over time. Catch the full conversation on YouTube or listen wherever you get your podcasts. We uncover: • Why your energy can feel “off” even when labs look normal • What mitochondria communicate beyond just ATP production • How stress, recovery, and sleep shift your cellular energy capacity • Why individuality matters more than group averages in real life health outcomes • The simple daily choices that build or drain metabolic resilience over time At the end of the day, energy is the foundation of how we show up in our lives, and we can influence it more than we think.

Your brain doesn't wait until old age to start changing. It's being shaped right now by the choices you make every single day. On this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I'm joined by preventive neurologist Dr. Richard Isaacson—founder of RetainYourBrain, a free assessment platform empowering people to understand and improve their cognitive health.

Watch the full conversation on YouTube, or listen wherever you get your podcasts. We cover: • What early biomarkers can reveal about long-term brain health • How metabolism, blood sugar, and belly fat impact memory and focus • Why a personalized plan beats a one-size-fits-all approach to Alzheimer's • Lifestyle changes that strengthen cognitive resilience starting now • The role of hormones, exercise, sleep, and supplements in prevention Resource mentioned: CNN Feature I believe we deserve to stay sharp, engaged, and fully ourselves as we age—this conversation shows what's possible.

Our food system is reaching a breaking point—and the warning signs are already on our plates. From disappearing crops to rising health costs, it's clear that the way we grow and eat food can't continue as it has. Today on The Dr. Hyman Show, I sit down with Sam Kass, former White House chef and senior policy advisor, to explore his new book The Last Supper: The Politics of the End of Food. We talk about what's driving the crisis, what's already being done to repair it, and how each of us can help build a food system that supports both people and the planet. Join us for the full conversation on YouTube, or listen wherever you get your podcasts. We discuss: • What if the foods you eat every day are quietly shaping both your health and the planet's? • Learn how a healthier food system could mean cleaner air, better soil, and stronger communities. • See why so many farmers want to do better—and what keeps them stuck. • How everyday food choices shape the culture that businesses and policymakers follow. • Simple actions you can take now to help build a food system that serves all of us. If this really is our “last supper” with the food system as we know it, we have the power to decide what comes next. Let's make it a meal that feeds both people and the planet.

A hidden fire called chronic inflammation drives many problems—from joint pain and arthritis to autoimmune conditions, and even faster aging. Typical fixes (like pain meds and steroid shots) calm symptoms but often miss the “why,” and can leave people still hurting or even create more issues. Big triggers of inflammation that impact our joints, and so much more, include sugar and refined carbs, extra weight, leaky gut, toxins, infections, stress, and poor sleep—plus joints naturally get less blood and oxygen as we age. This is why it's important to create an anti-inflammatory lifestyle plan starting with real whole foods, and incorporating regular exercise, stress management, gut repair, and targeted anti-inflammatory supplements. In this episode, I discuss, along with Dr. George Papanicolaou and Dr. Cindy Geyer, how chronic inflammation, arthritis, and joint pain can be reduced using a Functional Medicine approach, including how to do the anti-inflammatory 10-Day Detox diet. Dr. George Papanicolaou is a graduate of the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine and is Board Certified in Family Medicine from Abington Memorial Hospital. Over time as the healthcare system made it harder for patients to receive personal care, Dr. Papanicolaou decided a change was needed. He began training in Functional Medicine through the Institute of Functional Medicine. In 2015, he established Cornerstone Personal Health—a practice dedicated entirely to Functional Medicine. In August 2017, Dr. Papanicolaou joined The UltraWellness Center. Dr. Cindy Geyer received her bachelor of science and her doctor of medicine degrees, with honors, from the Ohio State University. She completed residency in internal medicine at Strong Memorial Hospital in Rochester, N.Y. and is triple board certified in internal medicine, integrative medicine and lifestyle medicine.

Food is medicine isn't a slogan—it's how our bodies are designed to heal. My guest today, Autumn Smith, knows that better than anyone. After overcoming years of digestive and mental health struggles, she co-founded Paleo Valley and Wild Pastures to help others access truly nutrient-dense food. On this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, we explore how regenerative farming restores both soil and human health, why food quality matters as much as food choice, and how regeneratively raised animal foods can contain the same healing compounds we find in plants. Watch the full conversation on YouTube or listen wherever you get your podcasts. You'll learn: • How to tell if your meat is truly regenerative • What labels like grass-fed, grass-finished, and regenerative really mean • Why soil health directly impacts your nutrient intake • Easy ways to lower inflammation through better fats • Affordable steps to eat well and support the planet When we heal the soil, we heal ourselves—and that change starts with what's on your plate https://wildpastures.com/ https://paleovalley.com/ View Show Notes From This Episode Get Free Weekly Health Tips from Dr. Hyman https://drhyman.com/pages/picks?utm_campaign=shownotes&utm_medium=banner&utm_source=podcast Sign Up for Dr. Hyman's Weekly Longevity Journal https://drhyman.com/pages/longevity?utm_campaign=shownotes&utm_medium=banner&utm_source=podcast Join the 10-Day Detox to Reset Your Health https://drhyman.com/pages/10-day-detox Join the Hyman Hive for Expert Support and Real Results https://drhyman.com/pages/hyman-hive This episode is brought to you by Paleovalley, Sunlighten, Function Health, Fatty15, Big Bold Health and Pique.

Today we tackle Parkinson's as a preventable epidemic—not an inevitable fate. I'm joined on The Dr. Hyman Show by two of the field's top neurologists, Drs. Ray Dorsey and Michael Okun, co-authors of The Parkinson's Plan, to unpack why cases are exploding and what we can do about it right now. We look at how toxins drive disease, why Parkinson's goes far beyond dopamine, and the early signs most people miss—plus what you can do today to protect your brain. And we connect the dots between environmental exposures—whether from food, water, or even recreational spaces—and the growing burden of neurological disease. Watch the full conversation here or listen wherever you get your podcasts. [YOUTUBE THUMBNAIL] We also explore: • How to spot early signs—like loss of smell—long before a diagnosis • Everyday ways to cut toxin exposures in your food, water, and home • Why Parkinson's is a whole-body disease, and what that means for prevention • The kind of exercise that protects your brain and slows progression • Simple nutrient checks that can support medication and brain health Parkinson's isn't inevitable. Protecting brain health starts with small daily choices. These are steps you can take right now for yourself and your loved ones. With awareness and action, you can build resilience today and help shape a healthier future.
