Dental insurance is no longer a simple benefit you explain at the front desk. It has become one of the most complex and frustrating parts of running a dental practice, and if you are not paying close attention, it is quietly costing you money, time, and peace of mind.In this episode, Art Wiederman sits down with Teresa Duncan to unpack what is really happening with dental insurance today and why so many practices feel overwhelmed. They discuss how employer selected plans are becoming more restrictive, why claims are being denied more frequently, and how poor documentation can hurt both revenue and legal protection. Teresa explains the critical differences between primary and secondary coverage, coordination of benefits, self funded plans, and why many dentists are unknowingly writing off more than they should. The conversation also dives into documentation standards, AI imaging, appeals strategies, and the importance of training your team to communicate insurance realities clearly and confidently to patients. If your accounts receivable are rising, your team is stressed, or you feel like insurance rules change every month, this episode will give you clarity and practical direction.Connect with Teresa DuncanWebsite: https://www.odysseymgmt.com/Dental Revenue Network: https://dentalrevenuenetwork.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@odysseymgmtNobody Told Me That Podcast: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJF_kSfpA7sJ-rfD-363OfhlFgH9bKWGNSpecial Offer: Get $75 off the Dental Insurance Design and Management course with code: ART--------------Looking for financial guidance from a team that truly understands dentistry?

Kim Rogers (aka 'Worm Queen') is the co-founder and CEO of RogersHood Apothecary, a wellness company specializing in herbal detox and cleansing kits. You can purchase her best-selling Parasite ParaFy Cleanse Kit here. EPISODE SUMMARY BELOW-- I. Apothecary vs Pharmacy Discussion Nate and Kim discussed the origins and meanings of the words "apothecary" and "pharmacy," with Kim explaining how apothecary refers to natural herbal medicine while pharmacy refers to synthetic medications. Kim shared her experience going viral on TikTok in 2021 as the "worm queen" after discovering a parasite cleanse that helped resolve health issues she had been struggling with since 2019. II. Parasite Cleanse Business Journey Kim shared her journey from a 18-year career in Western medicine to creating her own parasite cleanse business after gaining significant TikTok fame when a video about deworming went viral, increasing her following from 10,000 to 210,000 in just two days. She discussed how she later discovered she had chronic Lyme disease undiagnosed for 30 years and mold poisoning, which led her to create additional health products including a Moldies kit. Kim explained that while she was a licensed medical specialist, she carefully avoids giving medical advice on her social media, instead sharing her personal experiences and what herbs have helped her, noting that TikTok later changed its community guidelines to restrict parasite cleansing content. III. Social Media Content Suppression Kim discussed her experience with social media suppression on TikTok and Instagram, where her content was significantly limited despite having 600,000 followers on TikTok. Despite the platform restrictions, Kim continued creating content daily across multiple platforms including Instagram, YouTube, and a podcast called "What's Eating You," with the goal of providing affordable and accurate testing for parasites, mold, and Lyme disease. She explained that her mission is driven by personal experience with health issues that altered her life, and she has expanded from a small shop to a 14,000 square foot facility while offering free educational content alongside her paid testing kits. IV. Kim's Health Advocacy Challenges Kim discussed her challenges fighting against Big Pharma, including being banned from 26 accounts over five years while building a following of 1.5 million across platforms. She shared her personal health struggles with chronic Lyme disease and PTSD from medical neglect, while continuing to advocate for alternative treatments including acupuncture, IVs, and red light therapy. The conversation included a detailed explanation of Kim's viral podcast clip about treating pinworms using scotch tape, which led to a broader discussion about the limitations of Western medicine and the need for comprehensive treatment approaches. V. Parasite Diagnosis and Treatment Challenges Kim and Nate discussed modern medicine's approach to treating health issues, with Kim sharing her experience of being diagnosed with worms and cryptosporidium parvium after catching them from water in Hoodsport, Washington. Kim explained that standard labs in the US failed to detect these parasites, requiring her to send samples to Mexico for proper diagnosis. She described the challenges of getting treatment approved by insurance due to the lack of domestic lab confirmation, and how her husband's treatment was denied despite the Mexican lab results showing his condition. VI. Lyme Disease Treatment Approaches Kim discussed her experiences with a controversial drug ending in "mectin" and explained the importance of using binders when taking it, as the drug kills parasites and releases toxins that need to be neutralized. She described how synthetic drugs like Iver work to break down biofilms and expose parasites, while also explaining her herbal approach that includes specific frequency-matched herbs to target different ailments. Kim revealed she was diagnosed with Lyme disease in 2023 after being bitten by ticks at age 11, and shared her experience of having worms come out through her skin and urine. VII. Chronic Illness and Medical Journey Kim shared her experience with chronic illness, including being diagnosed with Lyme disease, which she described as creating a "mirror" that masks other health issues like mold, parasites, and heavy metals from the immune system. She explained how medical professionals often dismissed her concerns about unusual tissue findings during surgeries, attributing them to normal inflammation or scar tissue. Kim ultimately chose to surrender her medical license to avoid the constraints of conventional medical practice and pursue alternative approaches to healing. VIII. Heavy Metal Detox and Health Kim explained how heavy metals enter the body through food, pharmaceuticals, dental work, and contaminated water, emphasizing the importance of natural remedies like cilantro for detoxification. She discussed how Candida overgrowth can be managed with herbs like Oregon grapefruit and Usnea to prevent sugar cravings and systemic issues. Kim also highlighted the dangers of tap water, which may contain nematodes, pharmaceuticals, and heavy metals, recommending against drinking tap water and suggesting water testing as a preventive measure. IX. Parasite Cleansing and Health Effects Kim explained that parasites are widespread, estimating that approximately 3.5 billion people worldwide have parasites, though official statistics only show 60 million cases in the US. She discussed how parasites can affect health conditions like MS and how she developed her own parasite cleansing kits after working in medical research. When Nate asked about criticism from scientists calling parasite cleansing pseudoscience, Kim defended her approach, stating that wormwood has been scientifically proven to eliminate parasites and that many people she has tested have confirmed parasite presence. X. Parasite Treatment and Compliance Goals Kim discussed her experience with parasites and their connection to mental health, particularly during full moons. She explained her Purify kit, which includes three tinctures and a binder taken daily, along with additional products like a lymph kit. Kim mentioned their goal to achieve FDA compliance within two months to allow store distribution, and shared her belief that Lyme disease affects brain function, potentially making people more susceptible to certain influences.

More info on the website under the events tab. Okay.. our top story this week: XX Afrezza inhaled insulin is now approved for kids and teens. The FDA okayed MannKind's afrezza for children 6 and older with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. MannKind says its proprietary Technosphere drug delivery platform enables the rapid absorption of insulin into systemic circulation. This follows FDA approval earlier this year for an update that revises recommendations for the starting mealtime dosage when patients switch from subcutaneous mealtime insulin regimens. MannKind also completed enrollment in February for a study evaluating the initiation of Afrezza therapy shortly after type 1 diabetes diagnosis in pediatric patients. The company said it made Afrezza available for eligible patients for $35 or less per month. Desmond Schatz, professor of pediatrics at the University of Florida College of Medicine, said: "Mealtime insulin can be especially challenging for children because eating and snacking patterns, activity levels, and daily settings like school and sports often vary. With its rapid onset and dosing at the start of a meal, Afrezza may help clinicians better match insulin therapy to how children and families live day to day, while offering a needle-free mealtime option." Lots more to come on this – we're working on a bonus episode with one of the pediatric endos who worked on the clinical trials that led to this approval – hopefully have that out later this week. https://www.massdevice.com/mannkind-fda-approval-inhaled-insulin-children/ XX FDA has agreed to consider a new drug for the treatment of adults with type 1 and chronic kidney disease. Finerenone (fy-near-uh-known) is currently approved in the US for adults with CKD associated with type 2 diabetes and for adults with heart failure with left ventricular ejection fraction of 40% or greater. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is present in over one-third of adults with diabetes, and because it's such a serious condition, interventions are needed to reduce its incidence and help people live a long and prosperous life. https://www.docwirenews.com/post/fda-grants-priority-review-to-finerenone-snda-for-type-1-diabetes-associated-ckd XX Abbot gets European approval for the world's first dual glucose‑ketone sensing technology for people with diabetes. They're calling this Libre Duo and Libre Duo 10 Day, and it's designed to continuously measure glucose and ketone levels every minute. Abbott plans to begin launching Libre Duo systems in select European countries later this year. Libre Duo delivers up to 15 days of wear and will be offered to adults ages 18 and older. Libre Duo 10 Day offers up to 10 days of wear and is intended for people ages 2 and older. Abbott is also working with leading pump companies to allow automated insulin delivery (AID) systems to connect with the sensors. https://abbott.mediaroom.com/2026-05-27-Abbott-secures-CE-Mark-for-worlds-first-dual-glucose-ketone-sensing-technology-for-people-with-diabetes XX Huge recall for Omnipod. Insulin says a manufacturing issue through ongoing product monitoring that could result in insulin under-delivery with specific lots of its Omnipod 5, Dash and Eros pods. Insulet said the scope of this action reaches approximately 7 million pods. This issue is separate from the March recall that affected certain Omnipod 5 lots. According to the Acton, Massachusetts-based company, some of its affected pods may have a small tear in the tubing (cannula) just above the skin. This tear lands between the pod and the point where the cannula enters the body. If this occurs, insulin may leak outside of the device instead of being fully delivered into the body as intended. This may lead to under-delivery of the therapeutic. Individuals using an affected pod may notice wetness on the skin or pod adhesive or detect the smell of insulin. However, some cases may prove difficult to detect and go unnoticed. Of the approximately 7 million pods included in the action, approximately 60% have been consumed or are expired. The pods affected by the correction represent approximately 8.5% of the 2025 global Omnipod pod prodcution. Insulet says it has sufficient supply to replace affected pods. It expects no disruption to product availability. The company said it has notified the FDA and all other relevant regulatory authorities of its action. The full list of affected pod lots can be found here. https://www.massdevice.com/insulet-another-omnipod-5-recall-dash-eros/ XX Dexcom is warning that certain scrapped glucose sensors have been stolen and resold. Dexcom said it has not received any reports of severe adverse events associated with the stolen product. One lot of scrapped devices carries a risk of infection for sensors that are not properly sterilized, and another lot had an elevated internal testing failure rate, meaning users would have an increased risk of having no sensor readings available. Dexcom said the affected sensors were stolen during the destruction process and then sold by third parties. The company routinely scraps sensors that do not meet its standards. The sensors are sent to a third-party vendor for destruction and recycling. Dexcom said it traced sales of the stolen devices to Pharmsource, which is not an authorized Dexcom distributor but supplies some independent pharmacies and U.S. durable medical equipment distributors. Because of this, pharmacies that purchase products from Pharmsource should review their inventory, Dexcom said. People with sensors from the affected lots should not use those sensors and can call customer support to request replacements. Dexcom has set up a website to help users check if their devices are affected. https://www.medtechdive.com/news/dexcom-warns-of-scrapped-glucose-sensors-being-resold/821139/ XX XX Beta Bionics plans to debut its first insulin patch pump by the end of the second quarter of 2027, subject to Food and Drug Administration clearance. The device, called Mint, would be compatible with Beta Bionics' interoperable automated glycemic controller, a software that allows for the pump to automatically adjust insulin delivery based on readings from a glucose sensor. Beta Bionics first unveiled the prototype for Mint last year at the American Diabetes Association's Scientific Sessions. The device is expected to have a similar size and wear time, at three days, to Insulet's patch pumps on the market. It would have a 200-unit insulin reservoir. Mint differs by containing a mix of reusable and disposable components. Beta Bionics plans to make the device exclusively available in the pharmacy channel, building on its existing agreements for its current iLet insulin pump. Beta Bionics is one of several diabetes tech companies developing patch pumps to compete with market leader Insulet. Tandem Diabetes Care and Medtronic spinoff MiniMed have also announced planned patch pumps. Tandem said it plans to file a 510(k) submission this quarter for a tubeless version of its small, durable pump, and Medtronic plans to submit its patch pump to the FDA this fall. https://www.medtechdive.com/news/beta-bionics-to-launch-its-first-insulin-patch-pump-to-compete-with-insulet/821091/ XX CVS puts Zepbound back on it's coverage list – with it's Caremark PBM. They also added Foundayo, Lilly's obesity pill. CVS had dropped Lilly's Zepound last summer but kept competitor Wegovy. It'll be back at Caremark October first. All three of the nation's largest pharmacy benefit managers now cover Lilly's full obesity medicine portfolio. https://www.reuters.com/legal/litigation/cvs-brings-back-coverage-lillys-obesity-drug-zepbound-2026-05-28/ More to come, including a new benefit from metformin for women, something new from Tidepool, big news for T1D in Austalia and more.. XX A new study suggests that higher long-term exposure to food colouring additives — including both synthetic and natural colourings commonly found in processed foods and beverages — may be associated with an increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Researchers analyzed data from more than 108,000 adults in the French NutriNet-Santé cohort between 2009 and 2023, following participants for a median of just over eight years. During that time, 1,131 participants developed type 2 diabetes. The study found that people with the highest intake of total food colouring additives had a 38% higher risk of developing type 2 diabetes compared with non- or low-consumers. Several specific additives were linked to increased risk, including caramel colouring additives such as total caramel (E150 family), plain caramel (E150a), sulphite ammonia caramel (E150d), and beta-carotene (E160a). Additional associations were observed for curcumin (E100), anthocyanins (E163), paprika extract (E160c), lutein (E161b), and cochineal-derived colourings (E120). "Our findings revealed positive associations between widely consumed food colouring additives and type 2 diabetes incidence," the authors wrote, adding that further research is needed to better understand the mechanisms behind the findings and whether food colouring regulations should be reevaluated. https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/use-common-food-colours-tied-high-type-2-diabetes-risk-2026a1000hes XX Big news for Australia – their Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) approves Tzield. Tzield is now approved in Australia to delay the onset of stage 3 (or clinical) T1D in people aged eight years and older with stage 2 T1D – the early, pre-symptomatic stage of the condition, where changes in blood glucose levels have begun but insulin therapy is not yet required. Breakthrough T1D Australia Chief Executive Officer, Sydney Yovic, said the approval represented a transformational moment for Australians affected by T1D. https://newshub.medianet.com.au/2026/05/landmark-approval-of-tzield-in-australia-ushers-in-a-new-era-of-delay-for-type-1-diabetes/155036/ XX https://www.theatlantic.com/health/2026/05/diabetes-pregnancy/687324/ XX A common diabetes drug may hold great potential to help with aging, even if scientists aren't exactly sure why. According to a study, the drug metformin doesn't just help patients to effectively manage their type 2 diabetes. it may also give older women a better chance of living to 90. Scientists in the US and Germany used data from a long-term US study of postmenopausal women. Records for a total of 438 people were selected – half of whom took metformin to treat diabetes, and half of whom took a different diabetes drug, sulfonylurea. While there are some caveats and asterisks to the study, those in the metformin group were calculated to have a 30 percent lower risk of dying before the age of 90 than those in the sulfonylurea group. The study used age 90 as the marker for 'exceptional' longevity. However, scientists aren't yet sure that the drug extends lifespan, especially in humans – which is part of the reason for this study. RCTs could follow further down the line to dig deeper into these results, the researchers suggest. In the meantime, as the global population continues to skew older, studies continue to find ways to keep us healthier for longer and reduce damage to the body as we age. https://www.sciencealert.com/a-common-diabetes-drug-is-linked-with-exceptional-longevity-in-women XX The American Diabetes Association® (ADA) will host the 2026 Scientific Sessions from June 5-8 in New Orleans. The ADA's Scientific Sessions is the world's largest diabetes meeting, convening an expected audience of over 12,000 leading physicians, scientists, researchers, and healthcare professionals from around the globe. The premier diabetes meeting, which is also offered virtually, will feature the latest scientific findings in diabetes and obesity, where leading experts and peers will share findings in research for prevention, care, and cures at the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center. Key themes will include: Advancing obesity and metabolic health: Prevention, early detection, and disease modification: Improving cardiometabolic outcomes: Transforming care through innovation and access: New research will highlight how technology, artificial intelligence, and implementation strategies are reshaping diabetes care—reducing treatment burden, expanding access, and enabling more person-centered care.

What do you do when a doctor gives you a death sentence? Do you trust it, or do you listen to a calm, defiant inner voice that insists you will not become a statistic?In this inspirational episode of Metabolic Matters, host Christina Mason sits down with Dale Weber and her son, Alex Weber, for a powerful conversation about trusting intuition, cultivating resilience, and honoring the body's innate ability to heal. They share Dale's remarkable journey—from an aggressive stage IV endometrial cancer diagnosis to becoming a thriving cancer coach and advocate for others. As an exercise physiologist, nutritionist, and longtime wellness professional, Dale never expected cancer to become part of her story. After years of dismissed symptoms, a second opinion revealed a rare and aggressive form of endometrial cancer. Soon after, she was told she had less than two years to live.Throughout the episode, Dale explains how she began researching integrative and metabolic approaches to healing after realizing that conventional treatment alone did not fully align with her instincts. Inspired by books like The Metabolic Approach to Cancer and Radical Remission, she incorporated emotional healing, spirituality, low-dose chemotherapy, high-dose vitamin C, Hope4Cancer, HeartMath, and lifestyle changes to reduce chronic stress.What makes this episode especially impactful is the relationship between Dale and Alex. Alex openly shares what he witnessed during his mother's journey: fear, uncertainty, and unwavering determination. Together, they explore the roles of faith, family, community, hope, and love during life's darkest moments.More than six years later, Dale remains with no evidence of disease and now dedicates her life to helping others navigate cancer. This episode is a powerful reminder that healing is not just physical—it's emotional, spiritual, and unique to each person.Connect with our Guests: Dale: www.LiveBeyondCancer.com https://www.instagram.com/dalecweber/https://www.facebook.com/dale.weber.58 Alex: https://www.imalexweber.com/ https://www.instagram.com/imalexweber/?hl=en https://www.facebook.com/ImAlexWeber/ Alex's Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-alex-weber-show/id1460742994 Interested in the Advanced Integrative Metabolic Course?Learn a deeper, more integrative approach to chronic illness with AIM — the Advanced Integrative Metabolic Course for allied health professionals.

Host: Lalo Solorzano, Denise Smalls-Altagracia Published: June 2, 2026 Length: 20:17 Presented by: Global Training Center Summary In this Simply Trade Tips episode, Lalo Solorzano and Denise Smalls-Altagracia break down one of the most important but often misunderstood parts of U.S. import compliance: Partner Government Agencies, or PGAs. While many importers focus mainly on CBP, duties, tariffs, and broker filings, Denise explains why customs clearance is often much bigger than paperwork and duty payments. PGAs regulate the products themselves, covering areas such as public health, safety, agriculture, environmental standards, transportation, and security. That means an entry may look correct from a customs perspective but still be delayed, detained, or refused if agency-specific requirements are missed. Denise also highlights common agencies importers may encounter, including FDA, USDA, APHIS, EPA, and CPSC, and explains why documentation, product classification, and early planning are essential. This episode matters because PGA compliance directly affects speed, predictability, cost control, and supply chain reliability. Importers who understand agency requirements before shipments move are far better positioned to avoid costly surprises and keep trade moving. Main Topic / Discussion This episode focuses on Partner Government Agencies and their role in the import process. Lalo and Denise explain that CBP may serve as the primary border authority, but PGAs are the subject matter experts that determine whether certain products meet U.S. requirements and can legally enter commerce. The discussion covers what PGAs are, why they matter, which agencies importers commonly encounter, what documentation may be required, and how PGA compliance should be treated as a business function rather than a last-minute customs task. Key Takeaways • PGAs are federal agencies that work with CBP to regulate specific imported products. • Import compliance is not only about duties, tariffs, and customs paperwork. • Agencies such as FDA, USDA, APHIS, EPA, and CPSC may require additional documentation or review depending on the product. • Missing or inaccurate PGA information can lead to delays, detention, refusal, penalties, or supply chain disruption. • Strong PGA compliance improves shipment speed, predictability, cost control, and business reputation. • Companies should identify agency requirements before purchase orders are issued or goods are shipped.

Most antioxidants quit after one job. Methylene blue doesn't, and that's the pitch Young Goose founder Amitay Eshel makes in this conversation about where longevity skincare is actually headed. Eshel walks through why his brand maps every product to the 12 hallmarks of skin aging instead of building around a single molecule, the way he says most companies do when they're built to raise money and sell. The bigger reveal is about personalization. Eshel argues that truly custom skincare formulas are a marketing ploy, since FDA rules require formulas to be incubated and tested before they can be sold. The real personalization, he says, is the protocol, not the bottle, which matters for people in overcast climates like Washington who skip sunscreen and assume they're fine. This interview covers Young Goose, biohacking and longevity skincare, methylene blue, copper peptides, exosomes, FDA regulation versus European marketing rules, and how your skin responds to your geolocation. Eshel also breaks down entry points into the brand, from the blue peptide spray he calls the first clinical strength methylene blue product on the market to the higher-end Vampire Exosomes at $285. 0:00 How Young Goose is different in a saturated market 2:18 Regional skin health and the Washington sunscreen problem 4:18 The truth about "personalized" skincare 5:15 US vs Europe on regulation and marketing 6:39 Where to start with the brand 7:18 What methylene blue actually does Like and subscribe for conversations the rest of the media won't bother to have. #Skincare #Longevity #Biohacking #MethyleneBlue #YoungGoose #AntiAging #JasonRantz #Wellness

Are bio-identical hormones safe — and are they right for you? In this Tea & Truth episode, we're having an honest, grounded conversation about bio-identical hormones, hormone therapy, menopause symptoms, and the questions women in midlife deserve to ask before making decisions about their bodies. We'll talk about what "bio-identical" really means, why it doesn't automatically mean safer or risk-free, the difference between FDA-approved and custom-compounded hormone therapy, and why your personal history, symptoms, timing, and risk factors all matter. You'll also hear a little of my own story — including why bio-identical hormones didn't work well for me years ago, and why I still believe every woman deserves an informed, individualized conversation with a qualified provider. Plus, I created a free companion guide for this episode: Hormone Therapy Questions to Ask Your Provider: A Midlife Woman's Conversation Guide, to help you organize your symptoms, clarify your questions, and walk into your appointment feeling more prepared — not pressured. Bio-identical hormones can sound like the perfect "natural" answer to midlife symptoms — especially when you're exhausted, not sleeping, dealing with hot flashes, feeling foggy, anxious, dry, achy, moody, or simply not like yourself. But the truth is, the conversation is more nuanced than that. In this episode of Tea & Truth: Honest Talk for Women in Midlife, we're unpacking what bio-identical hormones really are, what women need to understand about safety, and why "natural" doesn't automatically mean risk-free. This is not an episode about telling every woman to use hormone therapy. And it's not an episode about telling every woman to avoid it. Instead, this is a grounded, empowering conversation to help you better understand your options, ask better questions, and advocate for yourself with more confidence. Current menopause guidance recognizes hormone therapy as an effective treatment for bothersome hot flashes and night sweats, and notes that for many healthy symptomatic women under age 60 or within 10 years of menopause, the benefit-risk ratio may be favorable when treatment is individualized. At the same time, professional organizations urge caution around custom-compounded bio-identical hormone therapy, especially when FDA-approved options are available, because claims of superior safety or effectiveness are not well supported. In this episode, I'm also sharing my personal experience with trying bio-identical hormones years ago — and why they didn't work well for me at that time. But I also share why that experience doesn't mean hormone therapy is wrong for every woman, especially since the conversation around dosing, timing, delivery methods, and individualized care has changed significantly. Because here's the truth: Your body deserves more than fear. Your body deserves more than marketing. Your body deserves thoughtful, informed, personalized care. In this episode, we talk about: ✨ What bio-identical hormones actually are ✨ Why bio-identical does not automatically mean compounded ✨ The difference between FDA-approved and custom-compounded hormone therapy ✨ Why "natural" does not always mean risk-free ✨ Why timing, dose, route, and personal history matter ✨ Why some women may need extra caution with hormone therapy ✨ Questions to ask your healthcare provider before deciding ✨ Why holistic foundations still matter whether you use hormones or not ✨ How to advocate for yourself without fear, pressure, or confusion Listen in to learn:
In this episode, Mark Domayhn, Partner at JD Lymon Group, joins Duane Mancini to unpack what medtech innovators often miss most: reimbursement isn't a box to check after FDA—it's the commercial foundation that determines whether hospitals and physicians can adopt your technology. Drawing on experience across Medtronic, Zimmer, and St. Jude/Abbott, Mark breaks down the “three-legged stool” of coverage, coding, and payment, why clinical evidence must satisfy payer standards (not just FDA), and how to “follow the money” across fragmented U.S. systems. The conversation then dives into the New Technology Add-On Payment (NTAP) program, why it matters for inpatient launches, how breakthrough designation has increased NTAP success, and the major implications of CMS proposing to repeal the alternative pathway—plus what companies can do before the June 9 comment deadline.

This includes compounding from FDA approved products, such as mixing two anesthetic drugs in the same syringe, or compounding from bulk products, such as having a drug made from the raw active pharmaceutical ingredient or from unapproved FDA drugs. Compounding from bulk products for food animals is prohibited in federal statute found at this link. FDA further explains their position on compounding from bulk substances for food animals in GFI# 256 that states that FDA generally does not intend to take enforcement action in cases of compounding from bulk substances to produce antidotes for treating toxicoses in food animals or use as sedatives/anesthetics in free-ranging wildlife species. Buckley also discusses the differences between compounded products and generic animal drugs and the federal regulations on extralabel drug use. It is important for veterinarians to understand the legal allowances for compounding, extralabel drug use. Veterinarians should use the resources provided by the Food Animal Residue Avoidance Databank (FARAD) for assistance with withdrawal intervals when using extralabel drug use or compounded products.

From the cervix to the vulva, so much of female anatomy has been understudied, misunderstood, and underserved — until now. In this episode, Dr. Kelly Casperson sits down with Dr. Andrew Goldstein, one of the world's foremost experts in vulvovaginal and cervical health, for a deep dive into the cutting edge of women's sexual medicine. We're talking new research, new treatments, and a whole lot of "why didn't anyone tell us this sooner?" energy. If you or someone you love has ever dealt with vulvar pain, lichen sclerosis, arousal difficulties, or just wants to understand their anatomy better — this one is unmissable. About Dr. Andrew Goldstein Dr. Andrew Goldstein is a board-certified OB/GYN and one of the world's leading specialists in vulvovaginal disorders, cervical health, and female sexual medicine. He is the founder of the Centers for Vulvovaginal Disorders, co-author of Reclaiming Desire, and a tireless advocate for research funding and clinical advancement in women's health. He has dedicated his career to conditions that medicine has long dismissed — and he is actively changing that.
Peptides are everywhere right now, and the people who tried to keep them out of your hands ran the last FDA. Dr. Chris Shade, founder of Quicksilver Scientific, sits down to explain what peptides actually are and why so many people are suddenly paying attention. He argues the problem with most supplements is simple: you swallow the capsules and feel nothing because the compounds never reach your blood. His company's fix is a liposome and nanoemulsion delivery system he calls the "biochemical syringe," which he says pushes peptides through the mouth and gut straight into circulation, no needles required. Then it gets political. Shade points out that the previous administration's FDA, staffed by people who came out of the pharmaceutical industry, pushed peptides onto the do-not-compound list while those same companies sold GLP-1 drugs that are themselves peptides. He credits HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and the MAHA movement with reversing that restriction and reopening access. If you've been curious about oral peptides, bioavailability, copper GHK, BPC-157, NAD precursors, glutathione, or how detox binders and liposomal supplements fit into a daily routine, this is where to start. Shade also lays out how long he thinks someone should commit to a protocol before judging whether it works. 0:00 Quicksilver Scientific and the supplement problem0:08 Why most supplements never get absorbed1:14 Oral peptides and the "biochemical syringe"1:58 GLP-1s are peptides too2:18 Where to start: copper GHK and BPC-1574:02 RFK Jr., MAHA, and the FDA peptide ban6:03 Binders and detoxification7:48 What Shade actually takes9:16 How long to commit and how to measure results

Most people assume that if a drug sits on the shelf at Costco or Walgreens, it must be pretty safe. But what if some of the most common over-the-counter (OTC) medications are among the riskiest drugs in America? On this vintage episode of Vitality Radio, Jared exposes the hidden dangers behind everyday pain relievers, sleep aids, and heartburn drugs—medicines that cause thousands of deaths every year when misused or taken long-term. You'll learn how a drug becomes “OTC,” what happens when pharmaceutical companies push for that switch, and why the FDA's approval process might not tell the whole story. Jared dives into the startling realities of PPIs like Prilosec, NSAIDs like ibuprofen, and acetaminophen (Tylenol)—uncovering their risks to the liver, kidneys, bones, and brain. He also discusses how marketing convinces consumers these drugs are harmless. Finally, Jared offers a resource for safe, natural alternatives for reflux, pain, inflammation, sleep, and immune support—options that nourish the body instead of depleting it. This episode will change the way you look at “harmless” OTC drugs and help you take real control of your health.Additional Information:#341: Your Digestive Health Supplement User's Guide.

What if there was an exogenous ketone that didn't go through the liver, didn't cause the GI distress of other ketones, and delivered bioidentical BHB directly to your cells? In this episode, Lisa sits down with Mike Chesne, founder of Tecton and retired US Army Special Forces combat medic, who spent 25 years in special operations before developing R3HBG — a patented ketone molecule that's categorically different from everything else on the market. Mike's journey from battlefield medicine to biotech is extraordinary. After suffering multiple traumatic brain injuries from IED blasts during nearly three years of combat, he went through brain injury rehabilitation and discovered the neuroprotective potential of ketones. He asked one question that changed everything: "If I had been in ketosis when I got blown up, how much better would my outcome have been?" That question led him to Oxford University, to Dr Kieran Clarke's lab, and eventually to designing his own molecule — drawing it on a napkin and spending over a decade turning it into a manufactured, FDA-reviewed product. In this deep-dive episode we cover: Mike's military career and the brain injuries that changed his path The DARPA project that spent $10 million searching for a supplement to boost performance and cognition by 30% Why the brain in Alzheimer's and TBI can't access glucose but can still take up ketones R3HBG explained: how lipase (not alcohol dehydrogenase) breaks it down, and why that matters The differences between BHB salts, R-1,3-butanediol, the original ketone ester, and R3HBG The NLRP3 inflammasome and how BHB blocks the inflammatory cascade driving neurodegeneration HDAC inhibition and how BHB switches on your body's own antioxidant and longevity genes NDI #1354 and what FDA New Dietary Ingredient acceptance means The GLP-1 agonist connection for weight management and metabolic health Therapeutic dosing for cognition, endurance, and recovery Mike's vision to license R3HBG to every ketone company willing to use it Lisa's experience using ketones with her mother's brain injury and cancer recovery This is the most comprehensive ketone science episode we've ever produced.

Photo by Reproductive Health Supplies Coalition on Unsplash In June of 2022 in the case of Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization, the Supreme Court overruled Roe v.Wade on the basis that access to abortion is a state issue. Since that decision, some states have passed laws restricting or banning altogether women's access to abortion. But the Food and Drug Administration approved the distribution of Mifepristone for medical abortions without an in-person visit as a safe practice. Louisiana filed a lawsuit against the FDA for this action and at the end of April 2026, the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in favor of Louisiana, restricting women's access to the drug in states that have banned abortions. On May 4th, the Supreme Court ordered a halt to stopping access to the drug until May 11th so that both sides could respond and the court could consider the issue more fully. HealthCetera host Diana Mason, PhD, RN, FAAN, discussed the case of Louisiana v. the FDA and the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeal's ruling with Anna Beernstein, principal federal policy advisor for the Guttmacher Institute, a research and policy organization committed to advancing sexual and reproductive health and rights worldwide. This interview first aired on HealthCetera in the Catskills on WIOX Radio on May 6, 2026. The post The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals & Women’s Health appeared first on HealthCetera.
99% of chemicals in our food right now were added without FDA approval. Many were added in secret, through a sneaky loophole built into the 1958 Food Additives Amendment.It was supposed to require FDA approval for new additives. But food companies and chemical makers found a workaround. And the FDA formally okayed the loophole in the 90s — in the process bringing attention to a loophole to the loophole.The FDA has essentially admitted it doesn't have the capacity to verify the safety of new food chemicals. So they leave it up to food companies and chemical makers to declare their brand new chemicals are safe. These chemicals are used in everything from chocolate and smoked fish, to tea bags, protein drinks, popcorn, and seeds.So, how'd the loophole get there, and what does it tell us about the priority the U.S. places on safety versus speed and innovation?

Dr. Mary Talley Bowden, the Houston physician who sued the FDA and won, joined David Knight to give a status report on what is decidedly not over: 29 states still recommend three mRNA shots for babies by nine months old, seven million children received the latest mRNA injection this year, and 20% of Americans say their doctors are actively pushing annual boosters. Bowden — who paid for her independence with hospital privileges and a years-long professional assault — points to RFK Jr.'s silence on the shots since taking the HHS position as proof that the power game swallowed him whole, while Trump continues bragging about Warp Speed and giving commendations to the team that ran it.

John walks through what it actually takes to become a Green Beret, the brutal pipeline from selection through Robin Sage, and how the COVID vaccine mandate ended a career he'd spent over a decade building.Hans and John dig into the moral, religious, and legal grounds for refusing the shot, the bureaucratic punishment that followed, and why John believes the COVID accountability fight is the linchpin for cleaning up the rest of the rot in the Pentagon. They close on his congressional run, the establishment machine he's up against, and why most veterans in the most veteran-dense district in America don't have a veteran representing them.Chapters: 00:00 – Opening segment 01:30 – From LA to ROTC to the seminary 03:50 – The Green Beret pipeline: enlisted vs. officer routes 05:30 – Selection: 34% attrition, four MREs a day, and 20 lbs lost 09:50 – Special Forces vs. SEALs vs. Rangers 13:40 – Working by, with, and through partner forces 15:10 – The Q Course, SERE, and language training 16:30 – Inside Robin Sage: the unconventional warfare exercise 20:45 – Military Free Fall and getting to 7th Group 23:15 – The transgender major and the first test of conviction 25:50 – The shot mandate hits the team room 27:15 – Vaccination rate as a metric for good leadership 30:45 – Aborted fetal cells and the Catholic moral case 33:00 – Counseling the command back36:25 – A year of being un-deployable, un-PCS-able, useless 37:40 – The two-star & the town hall39:20 – Why the reinstatement process is a joke 41:00 – Why COVID accountability is the linchpin 42:45 – From silent retreat to running for Congress 44:00 – Matt Gaetz, the State of the Union, and stepping aside for Trump's pick 47:10 – Why Patronis isn't fighting for the district 50:30 – The most veteran-dense district in America has no veteran on staff 54:00 – Thomas Massie, special interest money, and the uphill fight 57:10 – Where to find John and how to support the campaignKey Takeaways:The Green Beret pipeline is brutal and specific. Selection alone has an enormous attrition rate before the year-plus Q Course even begins. Special Forces work by, with, and through partner forces, which is what distinguishes Green Berets from other Special Operations Forces.The COVID mandate metric was a disqualifier for leadership. The percentage of your team that took the shot became the measure of a good leader. That single inversion of values exposed which commanders had spines and which didn't.The shot was never FDA approved when the mandate was issued. Comirnaty was the approved label, but it was never available. Pfizer EUA was what was actually in the vials, which made the order unlawful on its face.Insubordination, done right, is documented. John responded to his counseling statement by numbering each paragraph and refuting it on the record. His whole team followed suit. Most commanders had no answer because there were no legally defensible responses.The reinstatement process is theater. The administration wants a headline, not accountability. The biggest COVID tyrants are still in the Pentagon and still the loudest cheerleaders for every other ideological capture.

How CD38, PARP, and Leaky Gut Are Destroying Your NAD Levels | Dr. Andrew Salzman Your NAD is being drained by two hidden enzymes, your gut may be the starting point of every aging process in your body, and creatine does something to your mitochondria that has nothing to do with muscle. This episode rewrites what you thought you knew about longevity, anti-aging biology, and how your body actually produces and delivers energy at the cellular level. -Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR -Explore all of Wonderfeel's products at: getwonderfeel.com/dave They are gifting a complimentary 7-day Youngr™ supply (mini pouch) with every order across any of their products. The code will be DAVE, and the campaign will be active through June 6th. Host Dave Asprey sits down with Dr. Andrew Salzman, a physician, inventor, and biomedical entrepreneur with more than 30 years of experience in drug discovery and development. An alumnus of Harvard Medical School, Yale University, and Columbia University, Dr. Salzman has authored more than 170 scientific publications and holds 50 patents. He invented the original clinical-stage PARP-1 inhibitor, leading to the world's first clinical treatment for raising NAD levels and fighting cancers caused by the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes. Genentech licensed his breakthrough technology for $600 million. His research into gastrointestinal microbiota, autoimmune disease, oxidative stress, and mitochondrial ATP production now forms the foundation of how millions of patients get treated worldwide. Dr. Salzman names the two biggest NAD drains in your body, CD38 and PARP, and explains why taking NMN or NR alone is like filling a bathtub with the drain wide open. He breaks down the formulation science behind pairing NAD precursors with CD38 blockers like hydroxytyrosol alongside PARP-reducing antioxidants like ergothioneine, and delivers a paradigm-shifting explanation of creatine as an energy distribution network inside your cells. Rather than a simple muscle supplement, creatine acts as a high-speed ATP shuttle that carries energy from your mitochondria to the precise location and moment your brain, gut, and heart need it most. You'll Learn: Why NAD declines with age and which two enzymes are primarily responsible for draining it How CD38 rises with inflammation rather than NAD levels, and what that means for your supplement strategy Why creatine is one of the most underrated anti-aging and brain optimization supplements available How creatine functions as a spatial and temporal energy delivery network for your brain, gut, and heart Why the gut may be the origin point of the entire aging process and how that cascade unfolds decade by decade How leaky gut drives systemic inflammation, crashes NAD, and accelerates biological aging throughout the body What controls tight junction integrity and how ATP, butyrate, creatine, and fasting all play a role Why most creatine supplements fail to absorb properly and what to look for in a high-quality source How to rebuild your microbiome in three to four weeks through diet alone, without antibiotics Why walking immediately after a meal may be doing more harm than good to your gut lining Thank you to our sponsors! - Screenfit | Get your at-home eye training program for 40% off using code DAVE at https://www.screenfit.com/dave. - KILLSwitch | If you're ready for the best sleep of your life, order now at https://www.switchsupplements.com/and use code DAVE for 20% off - Pique | Go to Piquelife.com/dave for 20% off. - iRestore | Reverse hair loss at www.irestore.com/DAVE and get exclusive savings on the iRestore Elite, use code DAVE Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.

Full show notes: bengreenfieldlife.com/lymapodcast In this episode with Lucy Goff, you'll hear how a near-fatal bout of septicemia after childbirth sent her on a decade-long search through the world's leading science institutions, and how that search led to LYMA, a company built around the conviction that damaging your skin to improve it is the wrong approach entirely.

In the 200th episode of the Psychedelic Medicine Podcast, Ismail Lourido Ali, JD joins to discuss the future of psychedelic medicine. Ismail serves as MAPS Co-Executive Director and has been actively participating in the drug policy reform movement for over a decade, informed by half a lifetime of diverse personal experience with psychedelics and other substances. In this conversation, Ismail explores the rapidly evolving landscape of psychedelic medicine, reflecting on the field's major milestones, challenges, and future possibilities. He discusses how public perception has shifted over the past decade, the role of state-level psychedelic reforms, and the tensions created by commercialization, overhype, and competing regulatory models. Much of the discussion focuses on the recent federal executive order related to psychedelic research and drug development, including what it may mean for FDA approval timelines, right-to-try access, rescheduling, and public health standards. Throughout, Ismail emphasizes that psychedelics are not a "silver bullet," but tools that require strong systems of care, thoughtful policy, and community support to be integrated responsibly into healthcare and society. In this episode, you'll hear: How public attitudes toward psychedelics have shifted over the past decade Major milestones that expanded psychedelic policy reform beyond federal drug approval The promises and pitfalls of increased visibility, commercialization, and hype in the psychedelic field What the recent federal executive order on psychedelics actually does and does not do An explanation of right-to-try laws, FDA approval pathways, and the complexities of rescheduling psychedelic medicines Why maintaining rigorous evidentiary standards is essential for the long-term credibility of psychedelic medicine MAPS' vision for the future of psychedelic access, including regulated adult use, professional education, and community safety infrastructure How psychedelic policy reform could evolve to include broader systems of mental health care, crisis response, and social healing Quotes: "[Federal funding for psychedelic research] will only be so effective unless there is a massive reinvestment in mental health, harm reduction, and social services that actually ground—and one could say integrate—this medicine into like the continuum of care and the fabric of community that people are actually in." [25:07] "Even though those of us in the psychedelic advocacy field do want to see drugs like MDMA and others be approved by the FDA for medical use in these controlled clinical settings… At the same time, we don't want medical access to be accelerated so much that it's at the expense of public health or consumer protection or an evidentiary standard that other drugs are being held to." [37:59] "Medical professionals are not just prescribing things because they're approved. Many of them want to look at the evidence themselves. They want to look at the clinical trials. They want to understand 'is this the right choice for my patient?' But you can only know if [psychedelics] are being held to a comparable standard." [39:31] "What's MAPS' vision for ten years from now or 40 years from now for that matter? I like to think of it as lots of on ramps and lots of off ramps. It's that people who are seeking access to psychedelics for any beneficial purpose—for their own treatment or healing, for their own spiritual growth, for their personal development, for their for improving of their relationships with their loved ones or with nature or with spirituality, whatever that cosmology is that they hold—that they have safe, responsible methods of doing so."

For far too long, many women have been told their symptoms were normal, exaggerated, or simply something they had to live with—treated as isolated problems instead of part of a much larger hormonal transition happening inside the body. On this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I'm joined by Dr. Sharon Malone, host of The Second Opinion podcast and Chief Medical Advisor at Alloy Women's Health. We discuss how menopause and hormone therapy became so misunderstood, the real story behind the Women's Health Initiative study, and why a more individualized, prevention-focused approach to women's health is long overdue. Watch the full conversation on YouTube, or listen wherever you get your podcasts. We explore: Why so many women enter perimenopause completely unprepared—and how symptoms can begin years before menopause officially starts What the Women's Health Initiative actually found, and how one medical narrative reshaped women's healthcare for decades How menopause affects far more than reproduction, including the brain, heart, sleep, metabolism, and bone health What you should know about hormone therapy today, including timing, individualized treatment, and understanding risk in context The daily habits that still matter most for healthy aging, whether or not you choose hormone therapy Midlife health should never be reduced to “just deal with it.” The more women understand what's happening inside their bodies, the earlier they can take steps to protect their long-term health and quality of life.
