The Nazca Mummies may be real, but not extraterrestrial. Steve Aspin and Dr. Andreas Lück challenge decades of UFO assumptions, arguing the mysterious Peruvian bodies could be terrestrial biological organisms and that so-called alien-human hybrids may actually be genetically engineered humans. A provocative, science-driven journey into one of ufology's greatest mysteries. GUEST: Steve Aspin spent more than 35 years working in surgery and medical diagnostics before turning his investigative skills toward the UFO and abduction mystery. Author of Out of Time and co-author of Investigating the Impossible, Aspin explores the possibility that the phenomenon may involve genetics, family bloodlines, and realities far stranger than extraterrestrial visitation. GUEST: Dr. Andreas Lück is a molecular biologist, geneticist, and former Professor of Medical Biochemistry, Genetics and Cell Biology. With research experience at Harvard-affiliated Brigham and Women's Hospital, he brings rigorous scientific analysis to some of the most controversial questions in ufology, applying genetics, DNA analysis, and cellular biology to the impossible.

What if the experiences of thousands—or eventually millions—of Lyme disease patients could help the next patient find answers faster? In this episode of the Tick Boot Camp Podcast, we sit down with siblings Carter Bradsky and Payton Bradsky, co-founders of LymeLess Health, to explore their family's extraordinary Lyme disease journey and the technology they're building to help other patients navigate complex chronic illness. Lyme disease didn't affect just one member of the Bradsky family. Their mother became severely ill and largely bedridden while searching for answers through the conventional medical system. Carter later developed debilitating neurological and psychiatric symptoms while preparing to play college basketball. Payton experienced seizure-like episodes, was diagnosed with epilepsy, lost her driver's license, and struggled with cognitive dysfunction while beginning a promising career in technology. Their experiences ultimately inspired a much bigger question: What if Lyme patients didn't have to start from zero? That question became LymeLess, a precision care navigation platform built around an AI companion named Ella. The goal is to help patients organize complex medical histories, track symptoms and treatments, recognize patterns, prepare for medical appointments, find Lyme-literate providers, and make better use of the enormous amount of information generated throughout a chronic illness journey. A Family's Lyme Disease Journey Carter and Payton explain that their family's Lyme journey began with their mother around 2015. After relocating from South Dakota to Arizona, their mother progressively became sicker. Despite extensive medical evaluations—including care through major medical institutions—the family struggled to find an explanation for what was happening. At one point, her symptoms were attributed to psychological causes. Everything changed through a chance encounter. While attending an event surrounding Carter's high school graduation, their mother discussed her symptoms with someone familiar with Lyme disease. That conversation led her toward a Lyme-literate provider and ultimately toward the answers the family had been searching for. Her experience would later become critically important when both Carter and Payton developed their own unexplained illnesses. Carter Bradsky's Lyme Disease Story Carter was preparing for his senior year of high school and planning to play college basketball when his health began changing. During a period that also included significant emotional and physical stress, Carter began experiencing symptoms including: Brain fog and cognitive dysfunction Memory loss Dissociation Depression Anxiety Changes in his ability to function academically and athletically Because his mother had already traveled the Lyme disease diagnostic journey, she recognized similarities between Carter's symptoms and what she had experienced. That awareness allowed Carter to reach a Lyme-literate provider relatively quickly. He describes undergoing combination antibiotic therapy with herbal support and eventually reaching remission after approximately 1.5 to 2 years. His experience became an important lesson that would later influence LymeLess: Having someone Lyme-literate helping you navigate the journey can dramatically change how quickly you find the next right step. Payton Bradsky: Seizures, Epilepsy Misdiagnosis, and Lyme Disease Payton's illness presented very differently. During her senior year of college, after an intense period of stress, illness, dehydration, travel, and lack of sleep, Payton experienced what appeared to be a seizure. She was subsequently diagnosed with epilepsy. The diagnosis changed her life. Payton was placed on powerful anti-seizure medication, lost her driver's license, struggled cognitively, and found herself unable to use the brain she had relied upon throughout her life as an engineering student. This was particularly frightening because she had already accepted a job at Google and was preparing to begin her career in technology. Her family once again questioned whether there might be another explanation. That eventually led Payton toward Lyme and tick-borne disease testing and treatment. Unlike Carter's relatively shorter journey, Payton's recovery became a much longer process involving years of treatment and numerous providers. Her experience illustrates one of the central themes of this episode: There is no single Lyme disease presentation—and there is no single recovery pathway that works for every patient. From Lyme Patients to Technology Founders The siblings eventually brought very different professional backgrounds together to create LymeLess. Carter studied finance and data analytics at the University of San Diego before working in technology, media, and telecommunications investment banking in New York City. Payton studied computer engineering and entrepreneurship at Santa Clara University in Silicon Valley before spending approximately five years at Google, working as a software engineer and product manager. Her experience in technology—including exposure to privacy, security, and regulated data environments—would later become particularly relevant when designing a health platform handling sensitive patient information. Both siblings eventually left their careers to tackle a problem they understood personally: Why does navigating Lyme disease so often become a second full-time job for the patient or caregiver? What Is LymeLess? LymeLess describes itself as a precision care navigation platform designed around the patient. Instead of leaving medical information scattered across patient portals, paper binders, lab reports, physician notes, symptom journals, and a patient's memory, LymeLess is working toward creating a centralized longitudinal record of the patient's journey. The platform's AI companion is called Ella. Patients can use Ella to help: Organize their health history Track symptoms over time Track treatments and supplements Record reactions and potential triggers Upload medical documents and laboratory results Identify patterns in symptoms and treatments Prepare for doctor appointments Surface relevant resources and research Find Lyme-literate providers Remember previous treatment responses Better understand their evolving health journey Carter describes one user's characterization of Ella as a "second brain" for when Lyme brain makes remembering and organizing everything difficult. Turning the Lyme Disease Binder Into Usable Data Anyone who has navigated chronic Lyme disease knows about the binder. Years of: Bloodwork Imaging Specialist reports Medication lists Treatment protocols Symptom histories Diagnostic testing Hospital records Patients frequently carry enormous amounts of information between specialists, yet a physician working within a short appointment may have only minutes to understand it. The conversation explores whether AI could become a bridge between these two realities. Instead of expecting a physician to read hundreds or thousands of pages, AI may eventually help synthesize a patient's history into the information most relevant to that particular appointment. LymeLess currently allows patients to upload digital documents and images of physical records, while the company is working toward easier bulk uploading and potential integrations with electronic health record systems. The LymeLess "Warrior Report" One important feature discussed in the episode is the Warrior Report. Patients can export information from LymeLess into a report designed to help communicate their health journey to their provider. Carter and Payton envision this concept becoming considerably more sophisticated in the future. One possibility discussed is a provider-facing experience in which clinicians could interact with a patient's organized information, review relevant research, and ask questions in language and formats designed specifically for medical professionals. Longer term, LymeLess is exploring clinical decision-support concepts and potential integrations with electronic health record platforms. Ella Is Not a Doctor Carter and Payton emphasize an important distinction throughout the interview: Ella is not intended to replace physicians. LymeLess is not positioning Ella as an autonomous doctor that diagnoses disease or prescribes treatment. Instead, the goal is to help patients: Understand their own information Recognize patterns Surface questions Find relevant resources Organize their medical histories Communicate more effectively with their healthcare team The ultimate medical decisions remain between patients and qualified healthcare professionals. Can AI Help Patients Recognize Patterns? One of the most exciting possibilities discussed is AI's ability to analyze enormous amounts of information. Lyme and tick-borne disease patients frequently experience changing combinations of: Neurological symptoms Psychiatric symptoms Pain Fatigue Inflammation Treatment reactions Food sensitivities Environmental triggers Co-infections Medication and supplement responses Patients may recognize individual events but struggle to see patterns unfolding across weeks, months, or years. Payton explains that Ella is being designed to combine patient-specific longitudinal information with curated research and educational resources. The goal is not simply to answer a question at one moment in time, but to understand that question in the context of the patient's broader journey. Learning From Other Lyme Patients The conversation then expands beyond individual patient tracking. Could anonymized patient experiences eventually help identify broader patterns across the Lyme community? Carter describes a long-term vision for a community intelligence layer that could potentially help patients, providers, and researchers learn from real-world experiences at scale. Instead of every newly diagnosed patient beginning at zero, future patients could potentially benefit from patterns identified among people with similar symptoms, diagnoses, treatment histories, and responses. The siblings discuss the potential for properly anonymized and de-identified information to eventually contribute to research while protecting individual patient identities. Lyme Disease Research and Real-World Evidence The episode explores an even larger possibility: Could longitudinal patient data help accelerate Lyme disease research? Traditional clinical trials are essential, but they can be expensive, geographically limited, and slow. Meanwhile, Lyme patients are already trying enormous numbers of treatments in the real world. The challenge is that much of that information disappears. One patient tries a treatment. Another patient tries something different. A physician discovers something useful in clinical practice. Patients discuss experiences in Facebook groups and online forums. But those experiences rarely become structured research-quality data. LymeLess hopes eventually to help close that gap. Potential future applications discussed include: Identifying promising treatment patterns Generating real-world evidence Identifying potential clinical trial candidates Helping researchers determine which therapies deserve formal study Supporting decentralized research Connecting patients with clinical trials Helping researchers study complex combinations of Lyme disease, co-infections, and overlapping conditions Lyme Disease Is More Than Borrelia Another important research discussion centers around the complexity of the Lyme patient population. Many patients aren't navigating Borrelia alone. Their health picture may also include: Bartonella Babesia Other tick-borne infections Mold exposure Mast cell activation Dysautonomia Inflammation Neurological dysfunction Genetic differences Environmental exposures By collecting longitudinal information across complex patients, platforms such as LymeLess could potentially help researchers study the combinations and patterns that traditional Lyme research may not fully capture. Protecting Patient Privacy Health information is extraordinarily sensitive, and the episode includes an extensive discussion about privacy and security. Payton explains that protecting patient data has been considered from the beginning of LymeLess' development. According to Payton, LymeLess uses: Encryption at rest Encryption in transit Zero-data-retention policies and agreements with vendors powering the platform Patient control over their information De-identification and anonymization approaches for broader data use She emphasizes that patients should be able to benefit from AI technology while still understanding and controlling how their information is used. LymeLess and the Doctor-Patient Relationship One of the most interesting themes of the conversation is that technology could potentially improve—not replace—the relationship between doctors and patients. Patients with complex chronic illness frequently arrive at appointments carrying years of medical information. Doctors, meanwhile, may have extremely limited appointment time and may not have extensive training in Lyme and tick-borne diseases. That can create frustration on both sides. Could better-organized information help? The conversation explores how AI-generated summaries, longitudinal symptom tracking, research resources, and eventually provider-facing tools could help physicians understand complicated patients more quickly. Rather than telling patients they must become their "own doctor," the goal is to help patients become better-informed partners with their healthcare team. Can LymeLess Help Health Coaches? The siblings also discuss the growing role of health coaches in complex chronic illness. Because Lyme patients often need significant support between medical appointments, health coaches can help patients organize treatment plans, make lifestyle changes, and navigate day-to-day challenges. LymeLess could potentially serve two populations: Patients who cannot afford ongoing human health coaching may gain access to a more affordable form of between-appointment support. At the same time, professional health coaches may eventually use technology like LymeLess to organize information and support more patients efficiently. Carter's Mold Illness After Lyme Remission The episode also takes an unexpected turn when Carter shares a recent health setback. After reaching remission from Lyme and tick-borne disease, Carter moved into an older apartment in New York City's SoHo neighborhood. Over time, he began experiencing: Brain fog Severe fatigue Cognitive problems Word-recall difficulties Nervous system dysregulation Increasing sensitivity to caffeine Anxiety Eye floaters Initially, he questioned whether Bartonella or another tick-borne infection had returned. Testing eventually pointed toward mold exposure. Environmental testing of his apartment reportedly identified numerous types of water-associated mold, and subsequent testing contributed to his decision to address mold illness and leave the environment. He describes temporarily moving home, focusing on recovery, reducing caffeine and screen exposure, exercising, using sauna, and continuing to work with his healthcare team. Importantly, Carter says subsequent testing did not indicate reactivation of Lyme, Bartonella, or Babesia. His experience reinforces another reason he believes longitudinal health records are valuable: When symptoms return years later, knowing exactly what happened during previous illnesses and treatments can provide important context. Discovery, Active Treatment, and Maintenance Payton describes three broad stages LymeLess is designed to support: Discovery Someone has experienced a tick bite or unexplained symptoms and is trying to determine what should happen next. Active Treatment The patient has a diagnosis and is navigating treatments, symptoms, reactions, providers, testing, and progress. Maintenance / Remission The patient is doing better but still wants to understand their health, recognize potential triggers, remember previous treatment responses, and protect their progress. This makes LymeLess potentially relevant beyond the period when someone is acutely sick. Genetics and Precision Medicine The interview also explores another future direction: incorporating genetic information. Genetics can influence: Detoxification Methylation Medication responses Nutritional needs Inflammatory pathways Other aspects of individualized health Carter and Payton discuss a future in which genetics, laboratory testing, patient history, symptoms, environmental factors, and treatment responses could contribute to increasingly personalized health navigation. Their larger vision moves from precision care navigation toward precision care and, eventually, increasingly individualized precision medicine. How Much Does LymeLess Cost? At the time of this interview, Carter and Payton describe LymeLess as offering a one-month free trial, followed by a subscription of approximately $15 per month. They also discuss working toward making portions of the platform available more broadly and maintaining a scholarship program for people who cannot afford the subscription. Carter explains that a portion of subscription revenue is intended to help support that scholarship program. Turning Lyme Disease Into Purpose The episode ultimately becomes about much more than artificial intelligence. Both Carter and Payton discuss how illness changed their lives. They describe fear, isolation, cognitive impairment, uncertainty, faith, family support, and the challenge of trying to continue school and demanding careers while sick. They also discuss something we talk about frequently at Tick Boot Camp: finding purpose through suffering. Payton continued developing her engineering career while undergoing treatment. Carter describes spending long periods alone in church during college, trying to quiet his mind and understand what mattered most. Eventually, their experiences gave them a problem they felt compelled to solve. Their mission with LymeLess is ambitious: Learn from the unique story of every patient so future patients don't have to navigate Lyme disease through the same degree of trial, error, expense, and luck.

Welcome to Episode 321 of Autism Parenting Secrets. Parents make high-stakes decisions for their children all the time. And those decisions become much harder when they're surrounded by conflicting opinions, uncertainty, pressure, and fear. My guest this week is Dr. Taylor Bean, a Naturopathic Doctor and MAPS Fellow who is passionate about helping parents understand their options so they can make more informed decisions for their unique child. Her own journey into informed consent began when she became a mother, and that principle now runs throughout her work with families. In this conversation, we cover a lot of ground. Dr. Bean explains why she thinks the earliest years matter so much for establishing microbial health, why food introduction deserves more thought than it often receives, and how genetics can help practitioners better understand a child's inflammatory response. We also explore Vitamin A, probiotics, homeopathy, fever, and practical ways parents can prepare before their child gets sick. And we dive into vaccine decision-making, including why Dr. Bean believes so many parents find themselves in a "gray zone" where they aren't looking for someone to tell them what to do.  They want to understand their options so they can decide for themselves.. That's the bigger message here. You don't need someone else to make the decision for you. You need the information, support, and confidence to make an informed decision that's right for your child. The secret this week is…  Never Make Decisions Out Of FEAR You'll Discover: Why informed consent became foundational to Dr. Bean's work (3:15) Why MTHFR isn't the whole story when considering inflammatory response (15:50) Why Vitamin A plays such an important role in Dr. Bean's approach (19:32) How being prepared can reduce fear when your child gets sick (27:47) Why so many parents are stuck in the vaccine "gray zone" (40:44) About Our Guest: Dr. Taylor Bean is a Naturopathic Doctor and owner of TaylorMade Wellness in Salmon Arm, British Columbia. Becoming a mother is where her core value of achieving informed consent was born. While her profession taught her to be curious and treat each patient individually, it was her positive birthing experiences that changed her perspective on what a true doctor-patient relationship means. Her career started in Singapore, where she supported patients throughout Southeast Asia. She has been supporting Canadian families since 2016. www.drtaylorbean.com Vaccine Education Masteclass References in this Episode: MAPS Parent Conference - September 12-13, 2026 in Philadelphia, PA - Use code PARENT20 for discounted admission Medical Academy of Pediatrics & Special Needs (MAPS) Dr. Ben Lynch Additional Resources: To learn more about personalized 1:1 support go to www.elevatehowyounavigate.com If you enjoyed this episode, share it with your friends.

In this episode of The Body GrieversⓇ Club, Bri talks with registered dietician and private practice founder Jenna Werner about body grief, body image, and self-trust after Jenna's recent breast cancer diagnosis. Jenna shares how a baseline mammogram required before a planned breast augmentation revealed stage zero DCIS that couldn't be felt, leading to a double mastectomy, reconstruction with expanders, lymph node testing, and ongoing discussions about estrogen-suppressing medication due to recurrence risk. She describes moving through the stages of grief, the loss of feeling "invincible," and the physical and emotional impact of scars, numbness, and fear, while emphasizing that health-promoting behaviors don't prevent illness and genetics can override "doing everything right."    06:35 From Diet Culture to Nutritionist 13:57 Healthy Yet Diagnosed 16:26 Mammogram Surprise Discovery 24:00 Treatment Decisions and Genetics 26:08 Body Grief After Mastectomy 30:41 Diagnosis Shock and Grief 32:27 Genetics vs Lifestyle Myths 38:34 Finding Meaning After Trauma 41:58 Rebuilding Body Trust 47:52 Listen to Your Symptoms EPISODE RESOURCES "What The Actual Fork?" episode 248: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/intimacy-dating-and-body-image-with-bri-campos/id1505223001?i=1000692194382   WANT MORE OF JENNA?

Are you eating well, moving your body, and trying to sleep better — but still feeling older than you should? Stiffer joints, lower energy, and a sense that the last few years have aged you faster than the years before? That feeling has a cause, and it is not laziness or bad genetics. In this episode, we dive into why aging happens inside your cells first, and how your body catches up later. I walk through the 4 specific drivers that accelerate cellular aging and the 5 evidence-backed levers you can use to slow — and in some cases reverse — that process. Stay until the end for the clinical trial where participants did not just slow cellular aging… but after five years, they measurably turned it backward. In this episode, you'll learn: • Why your biological age — not the number on your driver's license — determines how you feel, think, and move • The 4 key mechanisms breaking down your cells right now, including telomere shortening, mitochondrial decline, slowed autophagy, and senescent cell buildup • How telomeres work like the plastic tips on a shoelace, and why emotional stress wears them down faster than almost anything else • What autophagy is, why your cellular cleanup crew slows with age, and how to switch it back on • Why resistance training is the single most powerful tool for building new mitochondria and slowing cellular aging • The specific fats that keep your cell membranes flexible and springy — and the ones that make them brittle • How deep sleep triggers growth hormone release, clears damaged proteins, and runs the brain's overnight repair cycle • The 9 blood biomarkers from a 2018 study in the journal Aging that predict longevity better than chronological age • The five-year lifestyle trial where one group lengthened their telomeres by 10% while the control group's shortened by 3% Find out what's really happening inside your body with advanced at-home biomarker testing — which includes a 60 minute consultation to review your results and learn about our cellular healing protocols at The Health Institute → http://mybloodwork.com Thank you to our sponsors!

Dr. Dwayne Jackson is a health specialist, medical educator, scientist, and entrepreneur with a PhD in neurovascular physiology. Mitochondrial peptides may be promising, but they cannot replace the aerobic base that makes their effects measurable. Dr. Dwayne Jackson explains AMPK and mitochondrial signaling, what MOTS-c and SS-31 can and cannot tell us, and why fitness data, training, and recovery come before any experimental compound. Expect to learn how aerobic fitness supports strength and Strongman training, why lactate clearance and conditioning can become the rate limiter, what AMPK and mTOR signal, how kidney disease changed Dwayne's perspective on aerobic capacity, where the evidence for MOTS-c and SS-31 is limited, how to design a more useful N-of-1 experiment, and why training, nutrition, recovery, COAs, and third-party testing come before experimental compounds.

In this special Tick Boot Camp Instagram Live, Dr. Casey Kelley returns to discuss the latest developments in Lyme disease diagnosis, treatment, clinician education, and research. Drawing on both her personal recovery journey and years of treating complex chronic illness, Dr. Kelley explains why Lyme disease requires individualized care, why more Lyme-literate clinicians are urgently needed, and how new technologies—including big data, advanced diagnostics, and innovative therapies like SOT—are shaping the future of patient care. Episode Highlights Expanding Lyme-Literate Medical Education Dr. Kelley announces an exciting partnership between the Illinois Lyme Association and Carle Health to offer the ILADS Fundamentals Course free to healthcare providers. She explains why educating more physicians is one of the fastest ways to improve Lyme disease diagnosis and treatment across the country. The conversation also explores the role of the International Lyme and Associated Diseases Society (ILADS), including its physician training programs, fellowship process, and commitment to evidence-based medicine. Dr. Casey Kelley's Personal Lyme Journey Dr. Kelley reflects on her own experience with chronic illness. After years of unexplained symptoms, multiple incorrect diagnoses, and eventually developing POTS during medical school, she discovered that Lyme disease and tick-borne infections were contributing to her illness. Her recovery ultimately inspired her to found Case Integrative Health, where she now helps patients with complex chronic illnesses using a personalized, whole-body approach. How COVID Changed the Chronic Illness Conversation The discussion examines how the COVID-19 pandemic dramatically increased awareness of infection-associated chronic illnesses. Dr. Kelley explains that greater recognition of Long COVID has also helped bring attention to Lyme disease, ME/CFS, POTS, mast cell activation syndrome, and other complex conditions that share similar biological mechanisms. AI, Big Data, and the Future of Lyme Care Matt and Rich ask whether artificial intelligence and large clinical databases will transform Lyme medicine. Dr. Kelley believes AI and big data will become valuable tools—but only when paired with experienced clinicians who understand the complexity of Lyme disease and can interpret each patient's unique presentation. Why Every Lyme Patient Is Different The conversation explores why no two Lyme patients look exactly alike. Genetics, epigenetics, immune function, microbiome diversity, environmental exposures, multiple tick bites, co-infections, and varying bacterial strains all contribute to highly individualized clinical presentations. New Advances in Lyme Diagnostics Dr. Kelley discusses promising diagnostic research aimed at distinguishing active infection from past exposure and identifying bacterial peptides unique to active Borrelia infections. These advances could help clinicians better determine whether symptoms are being driven by persistent infection or ongoing immune dysfunction. Understanding Supportive Oligonucleotide Therapy (SOT) One of the most in-depth portions of the conversation focuses on Supportive Oligonucleotide Therapy (SOT). Dr. Kelley explains how SOT is customized using a patient's own blood sample to target specific pathogens by preventing them from replicating. While not a cure, SOT has become an increasingly valuable treatment option for patients who have plateaued with conventional therapies and is often combined with treatments such as ozone therapy. There Is No Single Treatment Order Matt and Rich ask whether every patient should follow the same healing sequence. Dr. Kelley explains that there is no universal roadmap. Some patients must first stabilize mast cell activation, while others need to prioritize infections, mold exposure, parasites, or nervous system dysfunction. Successful treatment depends on understanding each person's unique biology rather than following rigid protocols. Nervous System Regulation and Neuroplasticity The discussion shifts toward brain retraining and nervous system healing. Dr. Kelley explains that many severely ill patients simply lack the energy to begin intensive neuroplasticity programs early in treatment. Instead, she often introduces passive nervous system therapies first before transitioning patients into more active brain retraining as their health improves. She also shares practical tools she frequently recommends, including: Vagus nerve stimulation Apollo Neuro Pulsetto Neurofeedback Binaural beats Breathing exercises Hypnosis Humor and intentional joy A Message of Hope Dr. Kelley closes the conversation by reminding listeners that healing is possible. While Lyme disease treatment often requires patience, persistence, and individualized care, she emphasizes that people can regain health, improve function, and achieve long-term remission—even when recovery feels impossible in the beginning.

I am honored to connect with Dr. Eric Osansky today. He is a chiropractic physician, clinical nutritionist, and functional medicine provider. He is also an author who loves to write about hyperthyroidism and a lifestyle-focused approach to it. In today's conversation, Dr. Osansky unpacks his own Graves diagnosis in 2008 and highlights the typical symptoms of hyperthyroidism, the unique physiology of thyroid dysfunction, and specific risk factors. We explore traditional treatment pathways, the influence of low-dose naltrexone and other immunomodulatory supplements, and the gut-thyroid axis. We also discuss how most of our immune system is located in the gut, the influence of leaky gut and autoimmune disease, perimenopause as a trigger window for symptoms, and how these often overlap with thyroid health. Stay tuned for an interesting and insightful conversation on thyroid health, Graves' disease, hyperthyroidism, and more. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: What Graves' disease is, and how it differs from other causes of hyperthyroidism The first symptom of Graves' disease that Dr. Osansky experienced, and other common symptoms of Graves' disease Genetics, environmental triggers, and other factors that could contribute to autoimmune thyroid disease Conventional treatment options that are available for Graves' disease, how they work, and why treatment decisions should be individualized Why Dr. Osansky recommends continuing to support immune and gut health after radioactive iodine or thyroid surgery How low-dose naltrexone may help some people with Graves' disease modulate their immune systems Foods, lifestyle measures, and supplements that can support immune regulation alongside appropriate medical care The relationship between the gut microbiome, intestinal permeability ("leaky gut"), and autoimmunity How thyroid symptoms and hormone changes during midlife can overlap, and why laboratory testing is important when symptoms overlap Bio: Eric Osansky Dr. Eric Osansky is a chiropractor, clinical nutritionist, and certified functional medicine practitioner who has been helping people with hyperthyroidism and Hashimoto's since 2009. He is the author of the books "Natural Treatment Solutions for Hyperthyroidism and Graves' Disease", "The Hyperthyroid Healing Diet", and "Hashimoto's Triggers", and is the host of the Save My Thyroid podcast. Dr. Osansky was personally diagnosed with Graves' disease in 2008 and was able to restore his health through a natural approach, and since then has helped others reverse their hyperthyroidism through his SAVED Thyroid framework.

Whether you're approaching menopause, currently navigating it, or simply want to prepare for healthy aging, this conversation will leave you feeling informed, empowered, and hopeful. In this episode you'll learn: Why menopause doesn't have to mean decline Why your mother's experience doesn't determine yours The difference between chronological age, biological age and ovarian age Lifestyle habits that can dramatically improve your menopausal transition When hormone replacement therapy may be appropriate Bioidentical hormones vs synthetic hormones The importance of estrogen, progesterone and testosterone How community, sleep and stress influence hormone health Why menopause can become a powerful opportunity for reinvention Time Stamps 00:00 Welcome + Why Menopause Needs a New Narrative 02:05 The Biggest Myths About Menopause 04:45 The Unexpected Gifts of Midlife 08:30 Why Menopause Can Be Your Health Reset 10:50 Hormone Replacement Therapy: What Women Need to Know 15:15 Estrogen, Progesterone & Testosterone Explained 18:45 A Real-Life Patient Success Story 20:30 The Lifestyle Habits That Matter Most 25:05 Genetics vs. Lifestyle: Does Your Mom's Menopause Predict Yours? 27:30 Biological Age vs. Ovarian Age 31:30 HRT Myths, Breast Cancer & Safety 35:20 Dr. Miranda's RISE Method + Final Takeaways 37:10 Free Hormone Quiz + Closing Thoughts Connect with Dr. Miranda Naylor Website Instagram Modern Women's Wellness Podcast Free Hormone Quiz Connect with Us Follow & Connect: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theartofliving_well/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@theartoflivingwellpodcast LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-art-of-living-well-podcast/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@theartoflivingwel/ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4gym3jOPdSHwrpM1BmxyJz Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-art-of-living-well-podcast/id1482050468  Connect with your Hosts: https://www.theartoflivingwell.us/about-us

Can you earn an IFBB Fit Model Pro Card naturally?Yes.But the better question is: are you willing to wait long enough?In this episode, I'm talking about what it actually takes to build a pro-level physique naturally — and why the biggest limitation for many women may not be their genetics, but their willingness to accept the timeline.Natural bodybuilding takes time.Multiple growth seasons. Years of progressive training. Getting stronger. Spending periods of time softer than you might prefer. And continuing to build when there's no immediate reward for the work you're putting in.Meanwhile, we're living in a culture obsessed with making everything faster.PEDs. Peptides. GLP-1s. Biohacking. Optimization.This isn't about demonizing any of them.It's about asking whether we're using these tools because they genuinely align with our goals — or because we've become unwilling to wait.In this episode, we talk about:→ Whether an IFBB Fit Model Pro Card is achievable naturally→ Genetics, training age, and your starting point→ Why Fit Model is different from Bikini and Wellness→ The reality of natural muscle growth→ Why staying lean year-round can work against physique development→ PEDs, peptides, GLP-1s, and shortcut culture→ The long-term tradeoffs of speeding up the process→ Fertility and future-life considerations→ The question I think every woman should ask before deciding to enhanceI'd rather help someone become exceptional naturally over five years than average with drugs in eighteen months.Because sometimes you don't need a better shortcut.You need to decide whether the goal matters enough to give it the time it actually requires.———READY TO BUILD A BODY YOU CAN ACTUALLY MAINTAIN?If you want to get leaner and stronger without constantly starting over, living by extreme rules, or making fitness the center of your life, my 1:1 coaching is built for exactly that.We create the training, nutrition, structure, and consistency systems that work in your real life — not just when everything goes perfectly.APPLY FOR 1:1 COACHING ↓https://calendly.com/elenoa-mccabe/30min

The New World screwworm is one of the most disturbing parasites in North America. Unlike ordinary maggots that typically consume dead tissue, screwworm larvae infest wounds and feed on the living flesh of warm-blooded animals. The parasite was eradicated from the United States decades ago, but in 2026 it returned to the U.S. mainland, creating serious concerns for livestock, wildlife and anyone responsible for protecting animals in affected areas. For generations, one of the primary weapons against screwworm has been the sterile insect technique—producing enormous numbers of sterile male flies and releasing them into affected areas to disrupt reproduction. But could the next major weapon against screwworm come from genetics? In this episode of Dark Outdoors, Chester Moore talks with Matt James of Colossal Biosciences about the potential for advanced genetic technologies to change the fight against New World screwworm. Colossal has publicly discussed the possibility of using genetic biocontrol and gene-drive technology against the parasite. The basic concept is remarkable: instead of simply releasing sterile flies generation after generation, genetic tools could potentially introduce traits designed to interfere with reproduction and drive those traits through a screwworm population. Moore and James discuss what this technology could mean, how genetics might complement existing eradication methods, and the much larger question surrounding modern conservation biotechnology: Can we use our growing ability to manipulate genetics not only to save threatened species, but to fight organisms threatening wildlife and livestock? It's a fascinating intersection of wildlife conservation, emerging biotechnology and one of the nastiest parasites imaginable. The New World screwworm is back. Could genetics help send it away again? Dark Outdoors investigates terrifying encounters, unsolved mysteries, true crime and dangerous wildlife—because the outdoors has a dark side.
