You read the label. You paid more for the healthier option. You chose the chips, mayonnaise, or salad dressing made with avocado oil because you were intentionally avoiding cheaper, highly processed oils. But what if what's listed on the package is not actually what is in the food? A recent UC Davis study published in Applied Food Research tested processed foods that listed avocado oil as their only edible oil. Researchers analyzed 54 samples representing two production lots of 27 products purchased from California stores and online retailers during 2025 and 2026. They found that 48 of the 54 samples, or 89%, had an oil composition inconsistent with authentic avocado oil. The results included: 93% of the avocado oil chips tested 71% of the avocado oil mayonnaises tested 100% of the avocado oil salad dressings tested The results raise serious questions about ingredient sourcing, label accuracy, supply-chain accountability, and whether consumers are receiving what they paid for. Read the UC Davis report. In this episode of The Body Wisdom Podcast, Jamie Belz is joined by fellow FNTP, Heather McDonough, to talk about navigating a food system filled with misleading health claims, lengthy ingredient lists, questionable oils, hidden sugar, artificial colors, and products designed to appear healthier than they are. Heather also takes listeners behind the scenes of Eat Gangster, the food company she co-founded to create baking mixes for people following therapeutic or restorative diets. She explains the time, expense, and responsibility involved in sourcing high-quality ingredients, testing raw materials for contaminants such as lead, managing supply-chain disruptions, and holding products to standards that may be more stringent than the minimum required by regulators. Jamie and Heather also discuss: Why "healthy," "natural," "keto-friendly," and "gluten-free" do not automatically mean nutrient-dense Which fats to cook with How to recognize heavily processed food-like products Why responsible food manufacturers rely on testing instead of simply trusting suppliers How to translate grams of sugar into teaspoons Which packaged foods can still provide convenient, nutrient-dense options How farmers markets and local producers can bring us closer to the source of our food Simple ways to make real food more convenient How to prioritize protein, fiber, and traditional fats when planning meals How the EWG's Dirty Dozen and Clean Fifteen can help guide produce purchases This is not a call to become afraid of food or to believe that health requires perfection. It is a call to become an educated consumer. We cannot personally test every product in the grocery store, but we can learn to question marketing claims, read ingredient lists, support trustworthy producers, make more food at home, and move closer to real, nutrient-dense food whenever possible. * Resources mentioned: Eat Gangster (Heather's Company) EWG's Dirty Dozen & Clean 15 Nourishing Traditions Book Weston A Price Foundation * S1E69 on Dr. Weston A Price S1E49 on Seed Oils S1E41 with Sally Fallon Morell S1E6 on Dr. Pottenger's Cat Study S2E2 AI in the Kitchen * Work with Heather at ⁠NTA Health ⁠⁠⁠  ⁠Get Your Free Health Assessment⁠ Work with a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (NTP)⁠ in Private Practice⁠⁠⁠ * Interested in becoming an NTP?

Discover the truth behind nutrition myths, intuitive eating, whole foods, sugar cravings, and simple strategies for healthier, sustainable eating. Carrots are bad. Avocados are bad. Don't eat egg yolks. Eat every two hours. Go gluten free. Detox with tea. As long as you stay under your calories, you're fine. Every single one of those is wrong. And Dr. Terri and Elizabeth DiMeo are done watching people make themselves miserable following food advice from people who have no business giving it. In this episode they go myth by myth through the top ten dietary rules that need to be retired — and replace each one with what the science actually says. From why a calorie is absolutely not a calorie, to why your gluten sensitivity may disappear entirely when you travel to Italy, to why organic crackers are still just crackers — this is the food conversation your patients, your family, and your social media feed desperately need. They close with a practical breakdown of the Dirty Dozen and Clean 15 — the Environmental Working Group's ranked list of which produce you should always buy organic and which ones you don't need to worry about — plus a simple baking soda and vinegar wash that removes pesticide residue from non-organic produce when organic isn't in the budget. Simple. Practical. No nonsense. This is what intuitive eating actually means. What you'll discover: Why a 230-calorie Snickers bar and a 230-calorie serving of broccoli are not remotely the same thing — and what "food is communication" actually means [03:20] Why fat doesn't make you fat — and what actually does [06:01] The difference between starchy and non-starchy carbohydrates — and why broccoli, arugula, and artichokes are all technically carbs [08:22] Why gluten sensitivity in the US may have nothing to do with gluten — and everything to do with glyphosate and hybridized wheat [13:36] Why skipping meals slows your metabolism — and what your body actually needs to detox every single day [17:45] The myth of eating every two to three hours — and what 100 years of human eating patterns tell us about snacking [19:59] Why organic automatically means healthy is one of the most dangerous myths in the grocery store [25:16] Why all inflammation does not come from food — and the overlooked sources most people never address [25:43] The Dirty Dozen and Clean 15: which produce to always buy organic, which ones you don't need to, and the $0 baking soda wash that removes pesticide residue [27:32] Real food.

Today on Beating Cancer Daily, Saranne welcomes Jacqui Bryan, a certified nutrition specialist and functional medicine expert, to uncover the hidden metabolic processes that occur during weight loss, particularly for those in cancer treatment or using popular medications like GLP-1s. Drawing from personal stories and years of expertise, the conversation centers around how fat cells not only store energy but also trap environmental toxins, and why rapid weight shifts can have unexpected effects on the body. Jacqui explains the science of toxic release during weight loss, emphasizes the importance of supporting the liver and digestive system, and offers practical advice on combating these hidden threats with everyday foods and lifestyle adjustments.Jacqui Bryan is a certified nutrition specialist, whole health educator, certified health coach, and registered nurse. As a 23-year breast cancer survivor, she brings firsthand experience and deep functional medicine knowledge, supporting countless individuals as they navigate cancer recovery, weight changes, and healthier living through evidence-based nutritional strategies."Fiber is what actually binds to it there in the gut and carries it out through the stool. Without enough fiber moving through your system, that toxin can be reabsorbed back into your circulation." ~Jacqui BryanToday on Beating Cancer Daily:·     Fat cells act as storage lockers for environmental toxins, which are released into the bloodstream during weight loss.·     Rapid weight loss can lead to a ‘toxic dump' that may cause symptoms like fatigue and brain fog.·     Supporting liver and digestive health is vital for clearing these released toxins from the body.·     Cruciferous vegetables (broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, kale) help activate liver enzymes and detox pathways.·     Adequate fiber intake binds toxins in the gut and aids their elimination, preventing reabsorption.·     Hydration is essential when increasing fiber and during periods of active weight loss to help flush toxins.·     Regular bowel movements are critical for removing toxins and maintaining overall health during weight shifts.Simple lifestyle changes, like eating more plant-based foods and avoiding environmental pollutants, empower patients and survivors to protect their health.Resources Mentioned: Environmental Working Group (EWG): for information on non-toxic products and pesticide levels in produce Dirty Dozen list: EWG's guide to produce with high pesticide residues Previous episodes on muscle mass, fiber, hydration, and cleaning fruits and vegetablesGuest Contact Information: Jacqui Bryan Website: JacquiBryan.com 2025 People's Choice Podcast Awards Best Health Series FinalistRanked the Top 5 Best Cancer Podcasts by CancerCare News in 2024 & 2025,and #1 Rated Cancer Survivor Podcast by FeedSpot in 2024 to 2025. Beating Cancer Daily is listened to in 148 countries across 7 continents and features over 420+ original daily episodes hosted by Stage IV survivor Saranne Rothberg.

And Another Thing With Dave, by Dave Smith Food security is national security. In this episode, Dave explores how fragile supply chains, the loss of local ranches and dairies, corporate consolidation, and over-regulation are making communities more vulnerable — and what everyday people can do about it. From container gardening and microgreens to beef shares, grass-fed beef, community gardens, fruit trees, and simple regenerative practices, this is a practical call to grow more of your own food, support local producers, and rebuild resilient local food systems. Resources include EWG's Clean 15/Dirty Dozen and tips for healthier choices around seed oils and glyphosate.Produce as much food as possible as close to home as possible — fresh is everything and short supply chains are more resilient.You don't need acreage: container gardening, vertical systems, microgreens, and indoor growing (lettuce, sprouts) work in small spaces.Local ranchers and dairies are disappearing through a mix of high land values, succession issues, environmental pressure, buyouts, and regulation. Supporting them directly (e.g., beef shares) cuts out middlemen and improves quality.Grass-fed, grass-finished beef is nutritionally different from grain-finished product.Simple regenerative habits matter: feed the soil, save and scatter seeds, chop-and-drop, bury kitchen scraps, plant for pollinators, and prioritize fruit-bearing trees and community gardens.Practical consumer steps: use EWG's Clean 15 / Dirty Dozen, rinse produce (baking soda + water), minimize seed oils, and be cautious with conventional grains due to pre-harvest glyphosate use.Cities and communities can do more than allow farmers' markets — they can create productive gardens on public and vacant land.Resources MentionedEnvironmental Working Group (EWG) — ewg.orgClean 15 / Dirty Dozen shopping guides and product toxicity ratings (including sunscreen, etc.).Direct from local producers — Look for beef shares / herd shares and farm-direct sales in your area.Dave's writing & socialSubstack: Deep Dives with DaveMedium: Deep Dives with DaveInstagram: @BetterTodaywithDaveDeep Dives with Dave | David Smith | Substack#FoodSecurity#LocalFood#RegenerativeAgriculture#RegenerativeFarming#FoodSovereignty#GrowYourOwnFood#FarmToTable#SupportLocalFarmers#GrassFedBeef#GrassFinished#PastureRaised#BeefShare#Homesteading#BackyardGarden#ContainerGardening#VerticalGardening#Microgreens#SoilHealth#CommunityGarden#UrbanFarming#RealFood#SeedOilFree#NoSeedOils#CleanEating#DirtyDozen#Clean15#EWG#OrganicLiving#FoodSystem#SupplyChain#NationalSecurity#SustainableLiving#Regenerative#FarmDirect#KnowYourFarmer#Podcast#FoodPodcast#HealthPodcast#AgriculturePodcast#DeepDivesWithDaveFarming, ranching & productionHealth & consumer-focusedBroader / searchablePodcast / content promotion

In this episode of Behind the Prop, hosts Bobby Doss and Wally Mulhearn dive into the Dirty Dozen, a set of twelve human factor traps that can affect pilots and mechanics alike. Originally released by the FAA around 2011 or 2012 as a poster for mechanics, these traps apply equally to pilots and can lead to serious situations if not recognized. The discussion covers everyday traps like complacency and distraction that bite on routine flights, as well as decision-making and awareness issues. Bobby and Wally share personal anecdotes, including stories about fuel checks during checkrides, the dangers of expectation bias, and real-world incidents like the Eastern Airlines Flight 401 crash caused by a distraction over a light bulb. They emphasize how these factors, including fatigue, pressure, lack of communication, and normalization of deviation, can cascade into problems for even experienced aviators. To combat these traps, the hosts offer practical defenses such as setting personal minimums, chair flying, using checklists effectively, and maintaining situational awareness. They stress the importance of being prepared, honest with oneself, and continuously learning to avoid the Swiss cheese model of accidents. Listeners are encouraged to review the Dirty Dozen poster linked in the show notes.

#197: Chris Haueter — The Dirty Dozen | BJJ Pioneer on Coaching, the Rule of Three's & Why Nobody Knows Anything

This week, Tee is joined by Lauren Less, wellness advocate, chronic illness educator, and founder of Less With Laur, for an inspiring conversation about how simple, sustainable lifestyle changes can dramatically improve your health. After years of unexplained fatigue, digestive issues, food allergies, mold exposure, Lyme disease, and multiple chronic health diagnoses, Lauren was forced to become her own health advocate. Through extensive research and guidance from integrative medicine practitioners, she transformed her health and now helps others reduce their toxic load without the fear, guilt, or overwhelm that often accompanies the wellness space. In this episode, Lauren shares her personal journey from chronic illness to wellness and explains why reducing everyday chemical exposure can play an important role in supporting the body's natural healing processes. She discusses the concept of the "toxin bucket," how environmental exposures, poor gut health, food sensitivities, and chronic inflammation can compound over time, and why addressing the root causes of illness often requires looking beyond symptom management. Tee and Lauren also explore the differences between conventional and functional medicine, highlighting the importance of personalized care, nervous system regulation, and building healthier habits that are realistic for everyday life. The conversation also provides practical, budget-friendly strategies for creating a healthier home without replacing everything overnight. Lauren explains why cookware, food storage containers, air quality, water filtration, and household cleaning products are some of the best places to begin making healthier swaps. She discusses organic food, the Environmental Working Group's Dirty Dozen list, avoiding greenwashing, reading ingredient labels, and using tools like Think Dirty and Yuka to make informed purchasing decisions. Throughout the episode, Lauren emphasizes that progress—not perfection—is the key to long-term wellness and reminds listeners that every healthier choice helps reduce the body's overall toxic burden. Whether you're managing a chronic illness, supporting your family's health, or simply looking for practical ways to live a cleaner lifestyle, this episode offers approachable advice you can begin implementing today.

In the world of vintage military watches, one quest eclipses them all: the Dirty Dozen. Twelve wristwatches, all built under the same uncompromising standards in the final year of World War II, yet each carrying its own scars, quirks, and stories. To own all twelve is not simply to have a collection—it's to hold a piece of history that once marched across battlefields, ticked in foxholes, and synchronized the very machinery of war.

Welcome back to the Late Boomers Podcast! We're Cathy Worthington and Merry Elkins , and we're thrilled you're joining us for another episode dedicated to helping you reinvent your health and well-being at any age.In Episode 294, we dive into a topic affecting every single one of us: environmental toxins and what “clean living” really means. With so many buzzwords organic, natural, chemical-free it can be overwhelming to distinguish helpful tips from clever marketing. That's why we invited Amy Hartshorn, founder of Green Living Now and veteran advocate for non-toxic living, to demystify how to make healthier choices that fit our real lives.For over 34 years, Amy Hartshorn has been at the forefront of teaching practical, approachable ways to reduce toxins in our homes, food, and daily routines. As co-owner of a certified organic farm in Vermont, she brings a hands-on perspective on what really matters in food, soil, and consumer safety.In this episode, we discuss:How marketing labels like “natural” and “wild-caught” can be misleadingWays to prioritize your food budget for the biggest health impactThe truth about greenwashing and how to read between the lines on packagingEasy first steps to reduce toxins in your home without spending a fortuneThe importance of soil health, indoor air quality, and what families should know about furniture, fragrances, and plasticsThe healing power of nature and community, as seen in Amy's transformative retreatsKey TakeawaysPerfection isn't the goal: Small, steady improvements like swapping out a scented laundry detergent for fragrance-free can make a real difference (09:00, 41:08).Not all labels are created equal: “Natural” is a meaningless term, and “wild-caught” is only trustworthy if certified by credible organizations like the MSC (10:07, 44:51).Start with high-impact swaps: If organic isn't in the budget for everything, focus on the “Dirty Dozen” produce and prioritize organic meat and dairy for the biggest benefit (15:14).Fragrances are hidden toxins: Remove air fresheners, plugins, and heavily scented products from your home for an easy, impactful win (28:01, 41:08).Read ingredient lists, not just claims: The real story about what you're buying is on the back of the label (25:39).Our choices matter: Every dollar spent sends a message about what we value, and we wield more power as consumers than we sometimes realize (24:10).Community and nature heal: Amy Hartshorn shares moving stories of how farm retreats and horse therapy have changed lives, showing that holistic change goes beyond our shopping carts (32:07).If today's conversation made you think twice about air freshener, food labels, or what's lurking in your cleaning supply closet, share this episode with a friend or family member who'd benefit from a more informed approach to healthier living.We'd love for you to subscribe to The Late Boomers Podcast wherever you listen don't miss future conversations with experts who help you live your best next chapter.Check out more resources from Amy Hartshorn on greenlivingnow.com, and find her podcast, Green Living Now, for deeper dives and practical guidance.Leave us a review, connect on YouTube, and remember every step towards cleaner living counts, no matter when you start.It's never too late to rethink what's possible!— Cathy & MerryMentioned in this episode:Late Boomers is part of the eWomenPodcastNetwork. eWomenPodcastNetwork

GLP-1 Side Effects, Gut Microbiome & Brain Health, Toxoplasmosis Risks, and the Dirty Dozen Explained Plasma Acetate Emerges As Key Gut-Brain Messenger In Older Adults A study published in Nature Communications examined how gut bacteria relate to plasma acetic acid, a short-chain fatty acid produced when gut microbes ferment fiber, and found that higher acetate levels tracked with lower triglycerides, higher HDL cholesterol, lower body fat, larger thalamic brain volume, and stronger performance on judgment-related cognitive tasks. Mediation analysis showed acetate acts as a direct link between specific gut bacteria, including Oscillibacter and Coprococcus, and these health outcomes. Host Dave Asprey breaks down why this elevates fiber fermentation, not fermented beverages, as the real lever for gut-brain health, and separates the evidence-backed mechanism from the kombucha-as-shortcut assumption. Source: https://www.nature.com/articles/s43856-026-01566-x ~~ GLP-1 Drugs Linked To Sharp Rise In Smell And Taste Disturbances A JAMA Otolaryngology cohort study tracking over 438,000 GLP-1 users against matched controls found a 48% higher risk of new smell or taste disturbances over two years, with smell disturbances up 81% and taste disturbances up 52%. Diagnoses included anosmia, parosmia, and parageusia, with researchers pointing to GLP-1 receptor activity in the olfactory bulb and other chemosensory pathways as a possible mechanism. Host Dave Asprey unpacks why this signal got buried under muscle loss and gut motility headlines, and what it means for anyone currently on or considering GLP-1 therapy.

Ocular toxoplasmosis is the most common intra-ocular infection worldwide, and an estimated 190,000 babies are born with congenital toxoplasmosis each year, concentrated in low-resource regions. Despite the scale, there is still no vaccine and no standard global treatment protocol. Host Dave Asprey explains why common, quiet health threats get chronically underfunded compared to dramatic outbreaks, and what pregnant listeners specifically should know about exposure risk. Source: https://www.sciencealert.com/parasite-affecting-1-in-3-people-is-a-serious-risk-to-human-health-scientists-warn ~~ Yale-Oxford Data Shows Exercise May Boost Mental Health More Than A Raise An analysis of CDC survey data from over 1.2 million U.S. adults found that people who exercise regularly report 1.5 to 2 fewer poor mental health days per month than non-exercisers, a benefit comparable to earning about $25,000 more per year. The data also revealed an inverted-U relationship, with optimal benefits at three to five sessions a week and diminishing or reversed returns at extreme volumes. Host Dave Asprey breaks down why moderate, consistent movement outperforms income as a mental health lever, and why overtraining carries its own psychological cost.

The move reflects a broader trend of major consumer-health conglomerates acquiring practitioner-trusted, lab-forward wellness brands. Host Dave Asprey weighs in on what happens to product quality and innovation when founder-led, science-first supplement companies get absorbed into shareholder-first parent corporations. Source: https://www.reuters.com/business/unilever-explores-bid-supplements-maker-thorne-ft-reports-2026-06-26/ ~~ New Research Maps How Your Microbiome Processes Plant Compounds, And What It Means For Your Produce Aisle Choices Researchers mapped 775 phytonutrients from over 1,100 edible plants against nearly 2,000 gut bacterial enzymes across thousands of human microbiomes, linking that enzyme activity to outcomes in IBD, colorectal cancer, and fatty liver disease. Individuals varied widely in how many of these compounds their gut could actually process, and in mouse studies, strawberries reduced colitis activity only in mice with an intact microbiome. Host Dave Asprey explains why the plant itself isn't the active ingredient, your bacteria are, and connects the findings to this year's Environmental Working Group Dirty Dozen and Clean Fifteen lists to help listeners decide where organic actually matters.

Today on Beating Cancer Daily, Saranne welcomes Jacqui Bryan for a berry-packed conversation about the nutritional power and cancer-fighting benefits of berries. Jacqui sheds light on polyphenols, flavonoids, and other compounds that make blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, cranberries, goji, acai, and elderberries stand out for anyone in treatment, survivorship, or seeking to lower inflammation and oxidative stress. The discussion takes listeners through practical strategies for choosing, preparing, and safely washing berries, as well as important cautions for those on certain medications or with conditions such as kidney stones. This episode is full of colorful insights and actionable tips; Saranne and Jacqui even find time for a few berry puns along the way! Jacqui Bryan is a certified nutrition specialist, functional medicine expert, whole health educator, and certified health coach. With decades of cancer survivorship herself, Jacqui brings firsthand experience and a deep clinical understanding of how nutrition can impact cancer outcomes. Her expertise spans dietary strategies for reducing inflammation, promoting gut health, and integrating superfoods into daily routines. "Cancer development is closely linked to chronic inflammation and oxidative stress... Berries, with their extraordinary antioxidant and anti-inflammatory polyphenols, are among the most studied superfoods for interrupting that process." ~Jacqui Bryan Today on Beating Cancer Daily:·     Berry nutrients like polyphenols and anthocyanins support brain health, cardiovascular function, and blood sugar regulation.·     Strawberries deliver a powerful dose of vitamin C and help with inflammation but are often on the Environmental Working Group's Dirty Dozen list for pesticides.·     Raspberries and blackberries are high in fiber and great for gut health, but those prone to kidney stones should moderate their intake due to their high oxalate content.·     Cranberries and elderberries offer unique benefits for urinary tract and immune health yet require caution if you have kidney issues or take blood thinners.·     Proper berry washing methods, such as vinegar or baking soda soaks, can significantly reduce pesticides and prolong freshness.·     Not all cleaning removes systemic pesticides; buying organic is recommended, especially for berries on the Dirty Dozen list.·     Whole berry consumption is encouraged during cancer treatment for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects but always discuss supplements with your medical team.·     Berries are being researched as chemosensitizers: compounds that may make cancer cells more responsive to treatment while protecting healthy cells. 2025 People's Choice Podcast Awards Best Health Series FinalistRanked the Top 5 Best Cancer Podcasts by CancerCare News in 2024 & 2025,and #1 Rated Cancer Survivor Podcast by FeedSpot in 2024 to 2025. Beating Cancer Daily is listened to in 148 countries across 7 continents and features over 420+ original daily episodes hosted by Stage IV survivor Saranne Rothberg.

TC Brown returns to Formosa Files – and to Taiwan – after 53 years away. A former U.S. Air Force security policeman stationed at CCK Air Base in Taichung for most of 1968-73, TC reflects on his recent trip back to the island, the Taiwan he remembers from the Vietnam War era, and the Taiwan he found today. John talks with TC about his memoir Made in Taiwan and town patrol in Taichung's “Dirty Dozen” bar district. We also visit Hualien through Wang Chen-ho's bawdy novel Rose, Rose, I Love You, one of the few works of fiction to touch on Taiwan's role in Vietnam War R&R.

Patients rarely say "no" because they don't need chiropractic care. More often, they say "no" because they haven't yet overcome the fears or questions standing in the way of saying "yes." In this episode of The Chiropractic Deep Dive, we explore Dr. Noel Lloyd's proven system for handling patient objections without sounding pushy, defensive, or sales-focused. You'll discover: Why defending your clinical recommendations often makes objections worse The psychology behind the "Dirty Dozen" patient objections Dr. Noel Lloyd's simple four-step objection handling framework: Acknowledge Clarify Reframe Ask for a decision How to respond to objections about cost, insurance, time, and maintenance care Why role-playing objections is essential for building team confidence How ethical leadership creates a culture of consistent patient communication Practical examples your entire team can begin using immediately Whether you're the doctor or a CA answering the phone, this episode will help you create more trust, improve care acceptance, and help more patients receive the care they truly need.

Heavy metal detox is the most overlooked driver of fatigue, brain fog, anxiety, and low testosterone — and most standard lab panels miss it entirely. In this episode, toxic burden specialist Kyle Hulbert explains why "normal" blood work can leave you feeling terrible and what actually works to reverse hidden toxicity. Meet our guest Kyle Hulbert is a wellness and integrative nutrition coach specializing in detoxification, hormones, and root-cause health. After his own decade-long struggle with anxiety, brain fog, fatigue, and a testosterone level of 159 at age 21, Kyle discovered that hidden heavy metal toxicity was driving his symptoms. He now runs a clinic model that has helped over 1,500 people in its first year reverse toxic burden, balance hormones, and recover their energy.

Standard blood tests are unreliable for heavy metals because metals live in tissues, not blood. A negative blood test does not rule out a burden. The provocation test (DMPS or EDTA IV plus an 8-hour urine collection) is the gold standard for measuring heavy metal load. Cilantro and most "natural" detoxes cannot bind mercury. Mercury needs a chelator with two thiol bonds: DMPS, DMSA, or alpha lipoic acid. 90 percent of people with mold symptoms see those symptoms resolve when their heavy metals come down. Metals form the scaffolding for mold biofilms. EBOO filters glyphosate, mold toxins, microplastics, bacteria, and viruses. It increases blood oxygenation by about 35 percent and the effect lasts roughly a week. 8,000 daily steps is the research-supported target for lymphatic drainage. 10,000 was a pedometer-marketing number. Start at home with water, then food (EWG Clean 15 and Dirty Dozen), then swap household products as you run out. Selenium can displace mercury from the brain but only do this while you are actively chelating from the body.

Jimmy went to Vegas for No Doubt at the Sphere, then up to a family cabin in Truckee. The Sphere gets a full breakdown — the way the seats actually rumble, why the general admission floor might be the worst seat in the house, how the venue works as both a concert and a movie at the same time, and the weight-based checkout technology that somehow knew exactly what he grabbed off the shelf. After the show, he wandered through the Venetian into a piano bar and ordered what he describes as the worst Sazerac he’s ever had in his life. From there, Frontier Airlines to Reno, parents pick them up, a cabin at Tahoe Donner, a high ropes course, a run-in with Jason Green at a Truckee street market, Jackbox games, and a bear box — not an actual bear. Tyler took the F-350, Fiona on the trailer, the secretary, and Reed down to Rubicon Springs. The pre-trip wasn’t smooth: Fiona’s AC recharged Thursday, leaked back out by Friday morning, and the roof rack bolts were missing entirely — cue a hardware store bolt-matching tangent that goes deep into Torx bits versus hex heads and why that matters for plastic covers. But the trip itself was exactly what Jimmy needed. Dirty Dozen camp. No cell service. Fiona ran the whole trail without any real drama. What made this episode are the trail encounters. At Tahoma staging, Tyler ran into a Jeep crew that had accidentally over-pressurized and broken their mechanical gauge, which turns into a full explanation of why digital gauges exist and why analog gauge accuracy degrades at the edges of the scale — MorrFlate context makes this land. Then on trail, a Canadian couple stranded since Wednesday with a broken Dana 35, a sheared steering box, and a winch that pulled off the bumper — all in one trip — and this was the wife’s first time ever offroading. Tyler explains the TFS spare parts program at Rubicon Springs (donate your old upgraded parts so they can bail out people exactly like this couple), and it’s one of the better trail culture segments they’ve done in a while. Also on the weekend: Justin Wicks ripping the entire Rubicon on a dirt bike faster than Tyler predicted, Greg Bakken rolling through solo in his two-door JC, Horton showing up to camp, Chris Neely floating down the river with Emma on what was allegedly their first date, a listener named Max welding a diff drain plug using Tyler’s Karnage suitcase welder, and an Australian MorrFlate owner who told his buddies they needed to get one — not knowing he was talking to the actual owner.

The IRS Dirty Dozen 2026 Episode 380 – The IRS has published its annual “Dirty Dozen” list for 2026. As always, scammers keep coming up with new tricks to snare unsuspecting taxpayers. It's best to know what you're up against! More SML Planning Minute Podcast Episodes Transcript of Podcast Episode 380 Hello, this is Bill Rainaldi, with another edition of Security Mutual's SML Planning Minute. In today's episode: the IRS has published its annual “Dirty Dozen” list for 2026. It's safe to say that the IRS is not exactly America's most popular government agency. But every once in a while, they do something we can all get behind. If you ever want to know the latest on what some criminals are doing to steal your money, the IRS can help. Their annual Dirty Dozen listing of tax scams provides us with a guide to some of the things we need to look out for. In publishing this list every year, the IRS is trying to encourage people to remain vigilant. As IRS Chief Executive Officer Frank Bisignano points out, “For more than two decades, the IRS has used the Dirty Dozen list to flag emerging scams that taxpayers should watch out for.”[1] Here is their newly published 2026 list, in order.[2] IRS impersonators. Criminals will use emails (phishing) and text messages (smishing) to trick someone into believing that the IRS is looking for them. They use intimidating language to convince someone to click where they shouldn't be clicking. They also like using QR codes to take you to a fake—but authentic-looking—IRS website. The IRS says they reported over 600 social media impersonators last year. Of course, it's best never to click on any unsolicited correspondence claiming to be from the IRS. The rise of AI spoofing. Scammers have discovered a new tool in recent years: using AI to impersonate IRS personnel. Some bogus phone calls now use AI for “voice mimicry” and “spoofed caller ID” to make them seem real. The IRS reminds us that they generally contact taxpayers by mail first, and they don't leave urgent, threatening or demanding messages. Fake charities. Crooks are ready to step in whenever there's a natural disaster or some other form of tragedy, and a phony charity is one of their most popular tools. They get unknowing taxpayers to give their money away in the hope of getting a tax deduction. When discovered, this can result in tax charges, interest and penalties once the scam is recognized. Social media “tax hacks.” Let the buyer beware when it comes to tax advice on social media. The IRS says that social media is “a major driver of tax scams.” Sometimes so-called “tax hacks” can go viral, leading people to claim credits they're not entitled to. The IRS reminds us that if you file a fraudulent tax return, you could potentially face significant civil and criminal penalties. It's best to follow trusted tax professionals and other reputable sources. Identity theft using online IRS accounts. Scammers sometimes use stolen data to get access to someone's IRS account. The IRS encourages people to set up their own accounts through IRS.gov, and to stay away from third parties who offer unsolicited help. Abusive claims involving long-term capital gains. Regulated investment companies and real estate investment trusts often use IRS Form 2439. The form is used when the fund has undistributed long-term capital gains. Long-term capital gains are taxed at a lower rate than ordinary income. The IRS has noticed an uptick in fraudulent claims where the filing organization is not an investment fund or real estate investment trust, and thus not eligible for this special provision. “Self-Employment Tax Credits.” Crooks are using misleading claims about “self-employment tax credits” to generate illegal refunds. The credits were available in 2020 and 2021 as part of legislation passed in the wake of the pandemic. They were actively promoted on social media, and there have been a significant number of fraudulent claims for such credits. “Ghost” tax preparers. The IRS defines a “ghost” preparer as someone who prepares a tax return but then refuses to sign it, or refuses to provide what's called a “Preparer Tax Identification Number” or PTIN. Remember that, regardless of who prepares the return, you are legally responsible for what you file. Being without a signature from the preparer or PTIN is considered a red flag. Non-cash charitable donations. Charitable donations for “conservation easements” and artwork have long been subject to scrutiny. An example of a conservation easement is a farm owner signing an agreement to permanently maintain the property as farmland, thus disallowing any future development on the property. This causes a decrease in the property's value, and the owner gets a tax deduction for doing it. Such donations are often legitimate, but they can be abused. Overstated tax withholding. This is a new entry on the list. Sometimes a scammer will suggest overstating the amount of tax withheld in order to receive a bigger refund. This is often referred to as “other withholding.” Of course, if you overstate your withholding, you can be subject to penalties and enforcement action. Spear phishing and malware. According to the IRS, criminals will go after businesses and tax pros with phony “new client” or “document request” emails. They warn people to be suspicious of unexpected requests for confidential information or urgent payment demands. The scammers use these tricks to steal personal data and/or deliver malware. “Offers in Compromise.” This one is an oldie but a goodie. An Offer in Compromise (OIC) is, essentially, a reduced settlement of a debt owed to the IRS. The problem is that so-called “OIC Mills” sometimes charge high fees, use high-pressure tactics, and make promises they can't keep. The IRS goes on to talk about some ways people can protect themselves from these scams. Some are obvious: don't click on a link you weren't expecting, and don't open an unexpected attachment. Also, if you get a phone call you weren't expecting from someone claiming to be with the IRS, simply hang up. The IRS also encourages people to report any suspicious activities. If you think your identity may have been stolen, they suggest you visit IRS.gov/idtheft. You can also take a look at IRS.gov/SubmitATip. This new online tool consolidates all the IRS fraud-reporting options into a single location.
