In this episode, Sabrina Zohar sits down with Dr. Sara Szal to uncover the hidden physical roots of anxiety. From hormones and gut health to mold, blood sugar, and cortisol, they break down how your body can fuel emotional chaos even when your life feels “fine.” Sabrina opens up about her own misdiagnosis journey, being told her anxiety was just mental before discovering deeper physiological causes. Together, they explore how the nervous system, hormones, and environment intertwine, and how healing often starts in the body, not the mind. If you've ever asked yourself, “Why do I feel anxious when nothing's wrong?”, this episode will change the way you understand yourself.

Dr. Geo Espinosa, one of America's foremost integrative urologists, dishes on men's urinary problems, natural support for testosterone, and prostate cancer. Lifestyle factors—diet, exercise, sleep and stress reduction—play an important role in all phases of urological health. Dr. Geo explains how he interacts with conventional urologists on the faculty of NYU Langone Medical Center where he practices. Why are men's urinary problems not just a matter of prostate size? How can natural strategies alleviate urinary difficulties without the need for surgery or drugs? Besides saw palmetto, what nutraceuticals can benefit men with urinary problems? Are there really natural herbal alternatives to testosterone? For men with prostate cancer who are under active surveillance, is there anything more that can be done to minimize their chance of eventually needing surgery or radiation? What nutraceuticals, vitamins and minerals have anti-prostate cancer potential?

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Dr. Geo Espinosa, one of America's foremost integrative urologists.

QUOTES “Other things we saw in that study were improvements in things like inflammatory markers, which we know chronic inflammation is a huge issue as we start to get older. We saw specifically C-reactive protein was lowered, and we saw other markers of muscle health that, while they didn't make statistical significance, they were trending that way.” “It stays very potent and very localized– a benefit to the skin. So you're having that same cellular turnover of the mitochondria, basically making the mitochondria in your skin act in a more youthful way.” “Even just after 2 weeks, we start to see improvements that are visibly noticeable. And then when we take that out to 8 weeks, it's statistically significant improvements in wrinkle reduction and in wrinkle depth. So, [it's] really powerful but gentle.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Get your free VIP ticket to the Perimenopause Solution event https://hayh.site/pr_bl_ap-snyder_a_snyder Order Mitopure (Urolithin A) at Timeline HERE with discount code ENERGIZED for 20% off your purchase!  https://⁠timeline.com/ENERGIZED Timeline on Instagram Jen Scheinman on Instagram  RELATED EPISODES  663: From Wired and Tired to Calm and Energized: The GABA-Mitochondria Connection + How to Fix It at the Cellular Level with Dr. Scott Sherr #653: Mitochondria, Menopause & Metabolism: The Cellular Secret to More Energy After 40 with Dr. Felice Gersh #623: Red Light Therapy for Upgrading Your Mitochondria, Cellular Energy, Skin and Brain Health with Jonathan Otto 595: How to Master Your Metabolism and Reverse Cellular Aging in Midlife + My Best Tips to Thrive with Dr. Mariza

Send us a textYou ever scroll through Instagram and see someone claiming to “treat the root cause” of depression with green juice and moonlight? Yeah, me too. And today, we're calling BS (politely but firmly) with my guest, Dr. Jonathan Stea, a clinical psychologist and actual scientist who's made it his mission to expose mental health pseudoscience for what it is: dangerous, seductive, and everywhere.We get into how pseudoscience sneaks into our feeds wearing yoga pants and using words like “functional” and “integrative.” Dr. Stea breaks down the nine red flags to spot bad science before it grifts your wallet and your well-being. We also talk about why “food is medicine” isn't the slam dunk it sounds like, what makes “natural” such a sneaky marketing term, and why even really smart people fall for this stuff.And because it's not all doomscrolling and debunking, we dig into how to build your own mental health literacy so you can tell the difference between evidence-based care and snake oil with a side of affirmation cards. We even time-travel back to the 1800s to meet Dr. Kellogg (yes, the cereal guy), who, no joke, used to serve his own poop at dinner parties in the name of wellness. The wellness industry's always been wild, folks.If you've ever side-eyed a wellness claim but didn't quite know why, or if you've bought the collagen powder anyway, this one's gonna be eye-opening. Let's get science-y (without the snooze).What's Inside:How to spot mental health pseudoscience and why it's so damn convincingThe “root cause” and “natural cure” tropes that keep the wellness grift aliveThe surprisingly bonkers history of Dr. Kellogg and early wellness quackeryWhy you can have mental illness and mental health at the same timeHow to boost your mental health literacy and protect yourself from bad infoQuick gut check. What kind of wellness advice are you still hanging on to that might be total nonsense? The one that feels true, even if it's not? We've all been there. I'd love to hear your “wait, was that pseudoscience?” stories. Come hang with me on Instagram and tell me what you're questioning lately. Let's get curious, not cynical.Mentioned in This Episode:Dr. Jonathan Stea's book The BS Detecting Guide to Mental HealthDr. Stea's free newsletterDr. Jonathan Stea' websiteDr. Jonathan Stea on InstagramOonagh's TEDx Talk: Losing Weight Is All In Your HeadOonagh Duncan on InstagramFit Feels GoodLeave me a voice note on Speak Pipe!

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Dr. Rob Verkerk, Founder, Executive & Scientific Director, Alliance for Natural Health International & Alliance for Natural Health USA.

Dr. Robert Verkerk, the Executive Director of the Alliance for Natural Health (ANH), discusses a wide range of topics, including the intersection of high-tech medical advances and natural therapies. Dr. Verkerk explains the mission of ANH, emphasizing the defense of health freedom and the promotion of natural approaches to health. They delve into various initiatives that ANH is working on, such as defending access to natural thyroid, reversing bans on important supplements like NMN and NAC, and challenging FDA regulations that restrict information on the benefits of natural products. The episode also highlights the importance of maintaining a balanced approach to healthcare and the ongoing efforts to reform regulatory frameworks that favor pharmaceutical interventions over natural alternatives.

Did you know that 1.6 million spinal surgeries happen every year in America – but many could potentially be prevented?In this episode, Dr. Tom and Marissa Nixon tackle one of the most common questions they receive: "My loved one has been told they need neck or back surgery – what should I tell them?" Drawing from a decade of holistic health practice, they break down the real reasons behind disc bulges, stenosis, and degenerative disc disease, while offering hope and practical direction for those facing spinal surgery recommendations. This isn't anti-surgery – it's about understanding your options and addressing root causes before invasive procedures become necessary.Key Takeaways:• Ask "Why" Eight Different Ways – Don't accept "old age" or "genetics" as the root cause of your disc problems. Keep asking why until you get to the structural issue: bones that have moved the wrong way and need to be corrected.• Structure Determines Function – Just like a house with a shifted foundation, when your spine loses its proper structure and curves, it creates pressure that leads to disc bulges, stenosis, and pain over time.• Corrective Chiropractic Offers Hope – Look for chiropractors who take before-and-after X-rays and focus on restoring spinal structure through adjustments, decompression, and targeted exercises rather than just temporary pain relief.Remember: Your body was created to heal – sometimes it just needs the right structural support to do what it does best.Recommended Tools & Support: Get professional-grade supplements and wellness tools we trust: Fullscript Store – Twin City Health Explore our FREE protocols, guides, and courses: Visit Our Stan Store Want 1:1 Functional Medicine coaching?

Andrea shares her personal journey from working in urgent care during the height of COVID to realizing that she wasn't truly healing patients—only temporarily making them feel better. That realization led her to functional medicine, where she helps families uncover the why behind chronic illness. We dive deep into the connection between genetics, nutrition, and oral health, discussing topics like MTHFR, folate vs. folic acid, heavy metal toxicity, gut health, and how the body's natural ability to heal starts with small foundational habits. Andrea and I talk about why our children are sicker than ever, what parents can do to support their kids' bodies naturally, and how oral health and functional medicine beautifully overlap when it comes to true prevention. Links & ResourcesAndrea's website: www.b2or.comInstagram: @b2or2024 If you enjoyed this episode, please take a moment to rate, follow, and share the podcast.

In this episode, Drs. May and Tim welcome two unconventional voices shaking up medicine—Dr. Jeremy Ayres, known internationally as “Dr. Jeremy,” and producer-turned-health advocate John Gusty. Jeremy shares his remarkable path from osteopath to holistic healer, revealing the mentors and moments that shaped his philosophy of true medicine—healing that empowers the body rather than fights it. John recounts how his wife's diagnosis of multiple sclerosis led him to question everything he knew about health, industry, and truth, ultimately finding hope through Jeremy's guidance. Together, they expose the overlap between media influence and medical control, explaining how societal conditioning keeps people sick and dependent. Their message is simple yet radical: healing begins when we reclaim curiosity, question dogma, and return to the natural intelligence of the human body.

Internal medicine physician Sally Daganzo discusses her article "How functional medicine fills the gaps left by conventional care." Sally explains how a systems-based, evidence-informed approach can uncover root causes of complex conditions like fatigue, brain fog, anxiety, digestive issues, and eating disorders, especially when standard lab tests and specialist visits fail to provide answers. She highlights how functional medicine complements conventional care by considering factors such as nutrition, sleep, inflammation, microbiome health, and environmental stressors. Listeners will gain practical insights into how functional medicine reconnects doctors with clinical reasoning, expands treatment tools, and helps patients find healing when traditional approaches leave them feeling dismissed or "treatment-resistant."

In this episode of the Ageless Future Podcast, Cade Archibald explores a comprehensive, root-cause-based strategy for reversing chronic pain. He redefines pain as a neurological signal rather than a standalone diagnosis, emphasizing that inflammation, immune dysfunction, and nervous system dysregulation are often the true culprits. Cade presents a three-tiered protocol for healing: reducing inflammatory cytokines like IL-6 and TNF-alpha; resetting the nervous system through vagal tone stimulation, hormone balancing, and circadian rhythm alignment; and regenerating damaged tissue using stem cells, exosomes, and peptides such as BPC-157, KPV, and Thymosin Beta-4. He shares a success story of a patient who reversed osteoarthritis and chronic pain through this integrative protocol, resulting in medication freedom and improved lab markers. The episode concludes with a practical lifestyle challenge—encouraging listeners to choose one area (diet, stress, exercise, hydration, sleep, or recovery) to optimize and begin reducing systemic inflammation for long-term healing. www.agelessfuture.com

Join Ray Solano and Dr. Tyler Hartmann, PharmD, on Healthy Choices, Dr. Talks to uncover how “metabolic chaos” disrupts health—and how functional medicine restores balance for lasting results. ---- In this week's episode of Healthy Choices, Dr. Talks, I had the pleasure of talking with Dr. Tyler Hartmann, PharmD, about what he calls “metabolic chaos.” If you've been chasing symptoms without answers, this conversation is for you.

He also shares case studies that show how identifying the real culprits (like parasites, stress, or toxicity) can change everything. Most importantly, you'll hear why quick fixes like weight-loss drugs often fall short, and how sustainable wellness comes from living the DRESS framework: Diet, Rest, Exercise, Stress reduction, and Supplementation. ---- Dr. Tyler Hartmann, PharmD, is a pharmacist and the CEO of OptiHealth Diagnostics, a nationwide virtual practice.

Building Resilience: The Missing Link in Autoimmune Burnout Recovery Most people think resilience means pushing harder, powering through stress, fatigue, and flare-ups until the body finally gives in. But what if that approach is actually keeping you stuck in burnout? In this episode of Autoimmune Simplified, Dr. Alison Danby redefines what resilience really means in autoimmune healing, and it's not about being tougher or doing more. You'll learn how true resilience is built through flexibility, not force, and why it may be the key to restoring balance after chronic stress or flares. This is Part 3 of our 3-part Autoimmune Burnout Series, wrapping up the conversation on burnout and cortisol with the science (and practice) of building your bounce-back capacity.

In this Ageless Future episode, Cade Archibald focuses on optimizing blood flow, endothelial health, and insulin sensitivity to prevent the twin threats of heart disease and type 2 diabetes. He explains why improving nitric oxide and mitochondrial function is foundational, then maps out practical levers—whole-food nutrition, HIIT intervals, post-meal walks, sauna/cold plunge hormesis, sleep, and even oral microbiome care. Cade spotlights advanced testing (ApoB/ApoA ratios, fasting insulin and HOMA-IR, CIMT ultrasound) and discusses tools ranging from GLP-1 agonists and tesofensine to tissue-repair peptides (BPC-157, TB-4) and umbilical-cord–derived regenerative therapies. Listeners get a weekly “stack” (low-dose GLP-1, BPC-157, beet nitrates, berberine) plus simple training cues (grip-strength tracking, sprints/intervals) to boost nitric oxide, repair vessels, and build a heart-healthy, longevity-driven routine. www.agelessfuture.com

Our immune systems are under more pressure than ever—from processed diets, environmental toxins, stress, and fast-spreading infections—and the result is faster aging and greater vulnerability to disease. As we grow older, “zombie cells” spread inflammation throughout the body, weakening defenses and accelerating decline. But research shows we're not powerless: the emerging science of immuno-rejuvenation reveals that we can retrain and rebuild our immunity. Through the right foods, lifestyle habits, and even strategic stressors, the body has hidden pathways for repair and renewal—offering clues to how we might slow aging and unlock greater resilience. In this episode, I discuss, along with Dr. Elizabeth Boham and Dr. Roger Seheult, how we can support the immune system by using food, lifestyle, and hormetic stress to reduce illness and restore resilience while slowing aging. Dr. Elizabeth Boham is Board Certified in Family Medicine from Albany Medical School, and she is an Institute for Functional Medicine Certified Practitioner and the Medical Director of The UltraWellness Center. Dr. Boham lectures on a variety of topics, including Women's Health and Breast Cancer Prevention, insulin resistance, heart health, weight control and allergies. She is on the faculty for the Institute for Functional Medicine. Dr. Roger Seheult is currently an Associate Clinical Professor at the University of California, Riverside School of Medicine, and an Assistant Clinical Professor at the School of Medicine and Allied Health at Loma Linda University. Dr. Seheult is quadruple board-certified in Internal Medicine, Pulmonary Diseases, Critical Care Medicine, and Sleep Medicine through the American Board of Internal Medicine. His current practice is in Banning, California where he is a critical care physician, pulmonologist, and sleep physician at Beaver Medical Group.  He was formerly the Director for Intensive Care Services at San Gorgonio Memorial Hospital.  He lectures routinely across the country at conferences and for medical, PA, and RT societies. Dr. Seheult is also the Co-founder of MedCram, an online medical education company that helps healthcare professionals and also lay people understand medical topics clearly.

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared sits down with Dr. Jason Klop, founder of Novel Biome, to explore one of the most fascinating and misunderstood frontiers in health: fecal microbiota transplant (FMT). Often misnamed “fecal matter transplant,” FMT is a highly purified process that restores microbial diversity in the gut—far beyond what probiotics alone can achieve. Jared and Dr. Klop discuss why FMT is gaining traction in digestive health, neurological conditions, and immune balance, and how it differs from traditional probiotic supplementation. You'll learn about the rigorous donor screening process, oral vs. rectal delivery methods, and why gut microbiome diversity is critical for overall vitality. The potential applications of FMT are broad and promising. This conversation pulls back the curtain on how supporting the gut ecosystem could impact everything from digestion and inflammation to mood and longevity.Additional Information:Novel BiomeNovel Biome - InstagramPodcast – Biome Breakthroughs (Spotify): Listen hereVisit the podcast website here: VitalityRadio.comYou can follow @vitalitynutritionbountiful and @vitalityradio on Instagram, or Vitality Radio and Vitality Nutrition on Facebook.

Thyroid trouble often starts as a whisper—tiredness, stubborn weight, dry skin—until a closer look shows the tiny neck gland that sets the body's “speed” is out of tune. Basic tests can miss the real issue, so checking active hormones and thyroid antibodies—and hunting for triggers like stress, gluten sensitivity, toxins, nutrient gaps, and gut imbalances—can reveal what's really going on. When understood this way, thyroid health is no longer just about numbers on a lab report—it's about restoring balance in the whole system. With the right testing, nutrition, and support, energy, mood, and metabolism can all return to their natural rhythm. In this episode, I discuss, along with Dr. Elizabeth Boham and Dr. George Papanicolaou, thyroid conditions such as hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, thyroid autoimmunity and how Functional Medicine practitioners take a different approach to find the root cause of the imbalance. Dr. Elizabeth Boham is Board Certified in Family Medicine from Albany Medical School, and she is an Institute for Functional Medicine Certified Practitioner and the Medical Director of The UltraWellness Center. Dr. Boham lectures on a variety of topics, including Women's Health and Breast Cancer Prevention, insulin resistance, heart health, weight control and allergies. She is on the faculty for the Institute for Functional Medicine. Dr. George Papanicolaou is a graduate of the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine and is Board Certified in Family Medicine from Abington Memorial Hospital. Over time as the healthcare system made it harder for patients to receive personal care, Dr. Papanicolaou decided a change was needed. He began training in Functional Medicine through the Institute of Functional Medicine. In 2015, he established Cornerstone Personal Health—a practice dedicated entirely to Functional Medicine. In August 2017, I invited Dr. Papanicolaou to join The UltraWellness Center and we've been successfully helping people together ever since. This episode is brought to you by BIOptimizers.
