Dr. Tony Wyss-Coray, PhD, is a professor of neurology at Stanford School of Medicine who is discovering factors present in young blood and in exercised blood that can improve brain, heart and other organ health. We discuss how different organs age at different rates and how to accurately measure biological aging. We also discuss the specific proteins found in blood when we are young and that are increased by things such as exercise, sunlight exposure, short-term fasting, specific foods and social connection that can significantly increase vitality, restore youthful functioning of the brain and body and potentially increase lifespan.

Most people think lab tests are only useful once something is wrong. But what if your blood work could show you where your health is headed—years before disease ever develops? In today's Office Hours, I break down how to read your labs through a functional medicine lens—so you can spot early dysfunction, connect the dots between symptoms and biomarkers, and take control of your health before problems escalate. In this episode, I walk you through: • Why “normal” lab ranges often miss early warning signs • The key markers that reveal the most about metabolic health, inflammation, thyroid function, nutrients, and cardiovascular risk • How functional medicine focuses on optimal ranges, patterns, and trends—not just disease thresholds • What your labs can tell you about symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, weight gain, and gut issues • How to track your numbers over time and ask smarter questions to shift from reaction to prevention Labs aren't just for diagnosing disease—they're a roadmap to optimizing your future health. When you understand your numbers, you stop guessing and start making data-driven decisions that build resilience and longevity. Visit ⁠functionhealth.com for 160+ lab tests at just $365 a year.

This week, Gabby talks with Dr. Taz — traditionally trained physician, integrative medicine expert, and founder of Whole Plus — about what it really means to practice medicine in today's world.They begin with the new U.S. health guidelines and unpack why Dr. Taz considers them a “win” — particularly the shift toward whole foods, protein, healthy fats, fiber, and the callout of ultra-processed foods. But the conversation quickly goes deeper.They discuss why food pairing and portion size matter more than food labels, how blood sugar and inflammation are driving modern disease, and why simple carbohydrates may be at the center of the chronic illness epidemic.From there, the episode moves into something bigger: shared decision-making in medicine. Dr. Taz explains why individualized care — especially in pediatrics — requires nuance, context, and trust between families and physicians. She shares her own journey through personal health struggles, how that experience reshaped her medical philosophy, and why healing requires more than just prescriptions and protocols.Gabby and Dr. Taz also explore:Micro habits that lower cortisol and improve metabolic healthThe impact of blue light and screens on inflammationWhy 10-minute practices can shift your nervous systemThe difference between “data-driven” health and intuitive healthGender differences in how men and women approach wellnessThe importance of family systems in long-term healingWhy medicine must move from authority to partnershipAt its core, this conversation isn't about trends or controversy. It's about reconnecting science with spirit — and empowering families to think critically, ask better questions, and practice health in ways that actually work for their lives.Chapters00:00 – Why evidence-based holistic medicine matters05:00 – The new U.S. health guidelines: what changed10:00 – Simple carbs, insulin resistance, and inflammation15:00 – Full-fat foods, meat, and food pairing nuance22:00 – Why personalization beats rigid rules30:00 – Gender differences in health blind spots40:00 – Micro habits: 10-minute practices that shift cortisol50:00 – Personalized medicine and micro-dosing prescriptions58:00 – Pediatric care, shared decision-making, and gut health1:08:00 – Trust in medicine and rebuilding relationships1:18:00 – Medicine as a calling, not a business1:24:00 – What keeps Dr. Taz groundedKey Takeaways• Pairing and portions matter more than labels.• Inflammation and blood sugar instability drive most chronic disease.• Micro habits can regulate cortisol without overwhelming change.• Health is contextual — environment, stress, and family systems all matter.• Personalized medicine isn't alternative — it's responsible.• Shared decision-making builds trust between doctors and families.• Nervous system regulation may be the foundation of long-term healing.ConnectDr. TazInstagram: @drtazmdWhole Plus: https://holplus.coGabby ReeceInstagram: @gabbyreeceYouTube: The Gabby Reece ShowProduced by Dear Media.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

You're taking 600 IU of vitamin D.Your labs say “normal.”But you could still be deficient. In this episode, Ben reveals why the official vitamin D recommendations were based on preventing rickets, not optimizing immunity, metabolism, muscle, or brain health. Independent researchers reanalyzed the original RDA data and found the required intake for adequacy was dramatically higher — yet the guidelines barely changed. Vitamin D is not just a vitamin. It functions like a steroid hormone and impacts: Immune regulation Inflammation control Insulin sensitivity Muscle protein synthesis Brain function Low vitamin D is strongly associated with insulin resistance, and since 93% of Americans are insulin resistant, this could be a massive blind spot. Ben also explains: Why “normal” lab ranges may still mean deficiency Why optimal levels should be above 60 ng/mL How obesity lowers circulating vitamin D Why magnesium and vitamin K2 are required for proper activation Why toxicity fears are overblown compared to widespread insufficiency You'll also learn the simple 3-step plan to optimize vitamin D safely: Smart midday sun exposure Intelligent supplementation with D3 + K2 + magnesium Regular testing and cofactor support If you're over 45, insulin resistant, or struggling with stubborn inflammation, this episode could be a game changer. You don't have a weak immune system.You may just have an under-supported one.

Okay babes… this is a very special Free The Moms episode.This one is actually a replay-style webinar training that I hosted, and I decided to bring it to the podcast because this conversation needs to happen out loud. We are talking all things peptides. Yes, GLP-1s. And also NAD+, glutathione, B12, BPC-157 and more. But the main focus of this training is GLP-1s—why so many of my clients are taking them, why some are microdosing, why some are on a full weight-loss dose… and why I personally am on a microdose.I'll be honest with you. I was nervous to release this. There is still so much stigma around GLP-1s. And I don't love that. So we're de-stigmatizing it. We're having the conversation. Because my job is to bring you information, empowerment, and options—without shame.Inside this episode, I walk you through:- What peptides actually are (and why they're not some scary foreign thing)- The difference between microdosing a GLP-1 and using a full weight-loss dose- Why I chose to microdose—and how I think about it in the context of longevity and metabolic health- Semaglutide vs tirzepatide (single agonist vs dual agonist) and what that actually means- What my clients are experiencing on these medications- Side effects like nausea and how they're managing it- Why medical oversight matters and how to think about doing this responsiblyWe also talk about other supportive peptides like NAD+ and glutathione, and why this conversation is bigger than “just weight loss.” For many of my clients, this is about metabolic healing, inflammation, energy, and feeling like themselves again.If you're curious, skeptical, interested, or just want to understand what the heck everyone is talking about, this episode is for you. You get to decide what's right for your body. Always.If you want to explore further, you can check out the peptides portal here:https://lmd.com/LauraConleyAnd if you attended the webinar live (or signed up), you'll receive the replay, consult link, booking link, and all resources via email.I love you guys. I'm proud of you for being open-minded. And I'm committed to giving you the tools and information you need to make empowered choices for your health. Hosted on Acast.

If you're eating clean, working out, taking supplements — and STILL feeling tired, inflamed, or stuck with weight loss… this episode is for you. In this Q&A episode of The Health Revival Show, Liz & Becca break down the real reason so many women struggle with fatigue, inflammation, slow metabolism, and subtle hormone or gut symptoms — even when labs look “normal.” They explain: • Why inflammation changes how your body responds to food, exercise, and hormones • The difference between chronic illness cases vs early warning signs • Why more restriction isn't the answer (and often backfires) • How cellular health, mitochondria, thyroid, and metabolism are connected • Who their new 3-month metabolic reset program is actually for If you've been told “everything looks normal” but know something feels off… this episode gives you the missing context and next step. *** CONNECT:

You can follow a solid protocol for Hashimoto's and still feel like something is not fully clicking.Your labs may look better. Your inflammation markers may improve. But your body still feels braced, wired, or unable to truly settle.In this episode, Inna sits down with Dr. Karyn Shanks to talk about a layer of healing that rarely gets addressed, hypervigilance.We explore how overfunctioning, overworking, and constantly being on can become a stress pattern that keeps cortisol elevated and the immune system reactive. Not because you are failing, but because your nervous system has learned to stay alert.You will see how sensations like throat tightness, chest constriction, or a constant sense of urgency are not random. We talk about the difference between a sensation and the story your brain builds around it, and why giving a feeling space for even ninety seconds can shift your physiology.We also discuss trauma informed care, why safety has to come before deeper healing, and how overdoing can be tied to worthiness and performance rather than true resilience.Healing is not only biochemical. It is also nervous system regulation, emotional awareness, and learning when to say yes and when to say no.This episode will help you look at your thyroid healing through a wider lens and understand what might still be keeping your body on guard.For full show notes, please see:https://innatopiler.com/podcasts/hashimotos-protocol-karyn-shanks/Get ThyroLove - the first all in one bottle multi-nutrient comprehensive formula designed specifically for those with Thyroid Autoimmunity at ThyroLove.com - use code “Podcast” to get 10% off and free shipping If you are struggling to lose weight with Hashimoto's, Inna has a 10 day plan just for you at InnaTopiler.com/jumpstartIf you need help with fatigue or brain fog with Hashimoto's, please check out Inna's 9 Day Exhaustion Solution at innatopiler.com/energyIf you don't yet know your thyroid type, please be sure you sign up for Inna's next free training at InnaTopiler.com/zoomcallFor more information about everything Hashimoto's please visit InnaTopiler.com

Did you know that bone loss doesn't start in your bones but often starts with hidden inflammation? In this episode, you'll learn why bone density loss is often a downstream effect of systemic inflammation and how identifying root causes can shift your results. Today's guest, Dr. Ann Shippy, explains the connection among autoimmunity, nutrient absorption, and the body's repair mechanisms, and shares practical strategies to calm inflammation naturally. By understanding the underlying biological drivers of bone loss, you can move beyond symptom management and begin rebuilding resilience from the inside out. This conversation offers a powerful reminder that stronger bones come from restoring whole-body balance and not just focusing on calcium.   About the Guest: Dr. Ann Shippy is a board-certified Internal Medicine physician and certified Functional Medicine practitioner based in Austin, Texas.

Welcome to Resiliency Radio with Dr. Jill Carnahan, where today's episode uncovers a critical and often overlooked driver of chronic symptoms in women: meta-inflammation. Dr. Jill is joined by Dr. Lara Zakaria, widely known as The Foodie Farmacist, for a practical, empowering conversation on how inflammation, metabolism, stress, and lifestyle intersect in women's health. In this episode, Dr. Jill Carnahan and Dr. Lara Zakaria explore why so many women feel exhausted, inflamed, and burned out—despite doing "all the right things." Drawing from Dr. Zakaria's journey from retail pharmacy to functional and personalized nutrition, this conversation reveals why addressing root causes—not just symptoms—is essential for long-term resilience. This episode is for women who want clarity, sustainable strategies, and permission to stop striving for perfection while still supporting deep healing. ✨ Like, subscribe, and share to help more women reclaim energy, balance, and metabolic health.

Regan Archibald welcomes the audience and shares updates from recent travel before outlining how his “Ageless Future operating system” uses lab data to guide a more intentional health strategy. He emphasizes starting with clarity about goals and symptoms, then looking for patterns and trends across markers rather than relying only on standard reference ranges or single numbers. He discusses examples of deeper testing beyond common basics, the value of tracking data over time, and the importance of viewing markers in context—such as sleep, stress, nutrition, and training—so decisions are based on a fuller picture. He also highlights how inflammation and hormone-related markers can be considered as part of an integrated review, and closes by encouraging viewers to stay current with labs and contact the office or website to get testing scheduled if it's been more than six months.RESOURCES:Book Comprehensive Labs: https://agelessfuture.com/longevity-labs/FREE copy of The Peptide Blueprint: https://agelessfuture.com/blueprintSign up for future Health Accelerator Challenges calls LIVE! https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_YZsiUMOzSyqcE8IinC5YEQ#/registrationBooks: https://www.amazon.com/Books-Regan-Archibald/s?rh=n%3A283155%2Cp_27%3ARegan%2BArchibaldArticles: https://medium.com/search?q=Regan+ArchibaldLIKE/FOLLOW/SUBSCRIBE:YouTube -https://www.youtube.com/@ReganArchibald / https://www.youtube.com/@Ageless.FutureLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/regan-archibald-ab70b813Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ageless.future/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AgelessFutureHealth/DISCLAIMER: This video is for educational purposes only and does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.  Many of the molecules discussed in this video are research compounds and are not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for any specific medical use, indication, or condition.

"Since the 80s, we've been brainwashed to believe that eggs are bad for us, butter is bad for us, dairy is bad for us, red meat is bad for us. And it's just not true." If you've been told your cholesterol is "too high"... if you're on a statin drug and wondering if it's actually helping... if you care about preventing heart disease instead of just managing it... this episode is your wake-up call. It's Heart Health Month, and Dr. Terri is cutting through decades of misinformation to reveal what's REALLY driving cardiovascular disease — and it's not cholesterol. From the gut-heart connection to the six hormones that could save your life, this is the heart health conversation your doctor probably isn't having with you. Here's the truth: "The highest gross revenue producing drug in the history of drugs — billions of dollars — and since they've come out in the 80s, cardiovascular disease rates and death from cardiovascular disease have actually gotten worse, not better." WHAT YOU'LL DISCOVER: → Why heart disease is a disease of INFLAMMATION, not cholesterol → The shocking truth about statin drugs — and why heart disease has gotten WORSE since the 80s → How cholesterol-lowering drugs are literally shrinking your brain (the brain is 70% cholesterol) → The connection between statins, insulin resistance, and Alzheimer's (now called Type 3 Diabetes) → Why "all disease begins in the gut" — Hippocrates said it 2,000 years ago and it's still true → How estradiol reduced cardiovascular disease progression by 50% in women who already had plaque → Why testosterone is powerfully protective for men's hearts (not just for energy and muscle) → The one organ that can't make its own T3 thyroid hormone — your heart → Why your "normal" lab ranges are based on a sick population (and what optimal ACTUALLY looks like) → The phone scrolling habit that's destroying your melatonin AND your heart health → The inverse relationship between cortisol and DHEA that's wrecking your cardiovascular system → The vitamin D level that triggers a 5x cancer risk and 160% increased cardiovascular disease risk → The 6 hormones you need optimized for true heart disease prevention This isn't about managing heart disease with more prescriptions. It's about understanding the root cause — inflammation — and optimizing the hormones your body needs to protect itself. YOUR ACTION STEPS: Get a deep-dive lipid panel (particle size, ApoA, ApoB), check your hormone levels, ask about a coronary artery calcium score, and focus on OPTIMAL — not just "normal." TIMESTAMPS: 0:00 - Intro: It's Heart Health Month 2:15 - Heart disease is NOT a cholesterol problem 4:20 - The statin drug soapbox: billions in revenue, worse outcomes 6:40 - How statins are connected to Alzheimer's and insulin resistance 7:55 - It all begins in the gut: inflammation and lipid polysaccharides 9:05 - The one statin study — and why it doesn't apply to everyone 10:20 - Estrogen: a powerfully protective anti-inflammatory molecule 11:25 - The study showing 50% reduction in plaque progression with estrogen 14:05 - Testosterone: protective for cardiovascular disease in men 14:45 - Thyroid: the heart can't make its own T3 16:15 - Why "normal" lab ranges are based on sick populations 17:15 - Optimal Free T3 levels and what pediatric data actually shows 17:50 - Melatonin: the hormone you're destroying with your phone 19:10 - DHEA: the cortisol-DHEA inverse relationship 20:25 - Vitamin D: the hormone-like molecule with massive cardiovascular impact 21:20 - Recap: The 6 hormones for heart disease prevention ---- The Dr. Terri Show is presented by EVEXIAS Health Solutions.

Most people think fatigue, brain fog, and low energy are just part of modern life.But what if the real issue isn't stress, age, or even sleep…What if it's mineral depletion?In this episode of the Kwik Brain podcast, I sit down with Caroline Alan, Co-Founder and CEO of BEAM Minerals, she's a health educator and leading voice in plant-based mineral replenishment, to break down what she calls “hidden hunger” — the cellular signal that your body does not have the raw materials it needs to function.We explore why your body can operate like a city in a brownout, why the brain is often the first place mineral deficiency shows up, and how modern soil depletion may be affecting the quality of the food you eat every day.In this episode, you'll learn:☑️ Why minerals are essential for mitochondrial energy production☑️ Why brain fog is often one of the first signs of depletion☑️ How modern farming practices reduce mineral density in food☑️ Why single-mineral supplements can create imbalance☑️ The difference between rock-based minerals and plant-based humic and fulvic substances☑️ How reverse osmosis and filtered water may be stripping essential minerals☑️ How mineral balance affects recovery, inflammation, and cognitive performanceCaroline shares her personal story of autoimmune challenges, adrenal burnout, and chronic inflammation, and how focusing on foundational mineral replenishment helped restore her energy, sleep, and mental clarity.If you feel like something is off but you can't quite explain it…If you struggle with fatigue, poor recovery, or brain fog…Or if you want to optimize your energy at the cellular level…This episode will help you understand why what's under the soil directly impacts what's happening inside you, and what you can do about it.

In this episode, Detective Ev sat down with Dr. Shivani Gupta, a leading voice in holistic health and chronic disease prevention, whose work bridges 5,000 years of Ayurvedic wisdom with modern functional medicine. Dr. Shivani's journey into wellness began with her own battle with chronic illness—an experience that led her to Ayurveda and ultimately transformed her life. Inspired to help others heal, she went on to earn a Master's in Ayurvedic Sciences and a Ph.D. focused on Turmeric, studying under renowned Ayurvedic experts in both India and the United States. At the heart of her work is The Inflammation Solution Program, a practical, integrative approach designed to help people—especially women—address chronic issues such as joint pain, weight gain, autoimmune symptoms, fatigue, and hormone imbalance. By blending traditional Ayurvedic principles with evidence-based functional medicine, Dr. Shivani empowers individuals to understand their bodies and restore balance from the inside out. We also dive into her new Hay House debut book, The Inflammation Code, where she reveals how hidden inflammation drives brain fog, metabolic dysfunction, accelerated aging, and more.     Want to watch this episode on YouTube? Click here. Subscribe if you'd like to catch all new episodes live and participate with our guests directly.   Want to learn more about becoming an FDN? Go to fdntraining.com/resources to get our best free workshops and mini-courses!

Okay ladies… this episode is for every woman who has looked in the mirror and thought:“What is happening to my body?”The weight that won't budge.The belly fat you've never had before.The exhaustion doesn't match your effort.The cravings, anxiety, bloating, low libido, and inflammation.Doing everything “right” — and nothing works.And then the quiet thought:Is this just aging… or is something actually wrong?Today I wanted a woman on the couch with me because there are things we just don't want to talk about with men. Things only another woman can understand, normalize, and validate.So I brought on Lauren Douglas, Family Nurse Practitioner and longevity-focused women's health provider at NuLevel Wellness. Lauren works with women in their 30s, 40s, and 50s who feel tired, inflamed, stuck, dismissed, and disconnected from their bodies — and helps them understand what's happening beneath the surface.This conversation covers perimenopause, menopause, hormones, metabolism, and aging — but it's also about identity, trust, and learning to support your body instead of fighting it.We talk about why women's bodies change after 35, why “healthy” stops working the same way, and why so many women blame themselves for shifts that are not their fault.This is not a quick-fix episode.It's a you're not broken episode.In this episode, we talk about:Why weight gain, belly fat, and insulin resistance show up in midlifeCravings, food noise, and nighttime hungerDeep exhaustion — even when you're eating well and exercisingMuscle loss and protecting strength as you ageGLP-1 medications and peptides — where they fit (and where they don't)Chronic inflammation, joint pain, and “mystery symptoms”Gut issues and bloating during hormone shiftsCortisol, stress weight, and wired-but-tired sleepLibido changes, dryness, and relationship impactHow to know whether you need hormones, peptides, GLP-1s, lifestyle shifts or none of the aboveMost importantly, we talk about agency — advocating for your health, asking better questions, and refusing to accept “this is just how it is.”This season isn't a decline.It's a transition.And transitions deserve education, compassion, and real support.Gentle content note:Hormonal changes, weight gain, sexual health, anxiety, inflammation, and medical dismissal are discussed.After listening:Notice where you've been blaming yourself instead of listening to your body.Ask: What if my body isn't failing — it's asking for something different?Start one conversation you've been avoiding.You're not crazy. You're not broken. You don't have to navigate this alone.Key moments from the episode:00:00 When You Don't Recognize Your Body03:20 Why These Changes Feel Sudden07:05 Early Signs of Perimenopause10:45 Why Weight Won't Budge14:40 Belly Fat & Insulin Resistance23:55 Hormones, BV & the Gut Link28:20 When Healthy Eating Stops Working37:10 GLP-1s for Women Explained45:55 Brain Fog & Hormones50:10 Libido & Dryness58:50 Inflammation & “Mystery” Symptoms1:03:20 Gut Issues & Hormones1:11:05 Choosing the Right Support PathConnect with Heidi:Website: https://heidipowell.net/Email: podcast@heidipowell.netInstagram: @realheidipowellFacebook: Heidi PowellYouTube: @RealHeidiPowellTrain with Heidi on her Show Up App: https://www.showupfit.app/Connect with Lauren Douglas:Website: https://nulevelwellness.com/Instagram: @laurendouglas_fnp (https://www.instagram.com/laurendouglas_fnp/)About Lauren Douglas:Lauren Douglas, FNP-C, is a Family Nurse Practitioner specializing in longevity, hormone, and metabolic health.

After a failed IVF cycle, the pressure to move quickly into the next one can feel overwhelming. Clinics often encourage momentum. Emotionally, it can feel safer to stay in motion than to pause. But rushing into another IVF cycle too quickly can quietly reinforce the same biological conditions that shaped the last outcome. If you've been told to increase stimulation, change protocols, or "just try again," this episode challenges that reflex. Because before another round begins, the more important question is: What actually needs to shift in the biology? In this episode of Get Pregnant Naturally, we explore why recovery windows matter after a failed IVF cycle and how back-to-back stimulation can compound physiological stress, especially in cases of low AMH, embryo arrest, or recurrent implantation failure. In this episode, you'll learn: Why stacking IVF cycles too closely can affect cellular energy and egg development How hormonal rhythm and communication break down when recovery time is skipped The hidden impact of inflammation and immune load between cycles Why more medication does not always mean better coordination inside the system How to recognize when repetition is happening without recalibration IVF is physically and emotionally demanding. Medications, procedures, disrupted sleep, and stress all increase the body's workload. Biology improves during recovery windows, not during nonstop stimulation. Strategic pauses are not delays. They are opportunities for recalibration. I'm Sarah Clark, founder of Fab Fertile and host of Get Pregnant Naturally. For over a decade, my team and I have reviewed hundreds of low AMH and failed IVF cases using functional testing alongside conventional fertility care. We specialize in helping couples identify the physiological patterns driving poor outcomes so decisions are grounded in interpretation, not guesswork. If you've been moving from cycle to cycle without a clear way to evaluate what's actually been addressed, I created a free resource called the Embryo Audit Checklist. It helps you organize past cycles and labs so you can see what's been looked at and what may not have been considered yet. Access it here.

In this Resilience Unravelled episode, host Russell interviews Brad Ley in Texas about oxygen and exercise with oxygen therapy (EWOT). Ley explains he turned to oxygen therapy about a decade ago after chronic illness and autoimmune conditions, including psoriasis and autoimmune arthritis, when standard drugs carried serious risks and he developed melanoma. He contrasts EWOT with hyperbaric oxygen therapy, noting hard-shell hyperbaric treatments were recommended to him but were too expensive and time-consuming. Ley describes “inflammaging,” where inflamed blood vessels and swollen capillaries restrict oxygen delivery, pushing cells into anaerobic respiration, lowering energy production and increasing inflammation; he says delivering a high dose of oxygen during exercise can reduce inflammation and help reestablish blood flow in capillaries. He addresses concerns about oxygen and oxidative stress, stating oxygen is also important for detoxification and that research does not show increased oxidative stress from EWOT. Ley outlines the origins of EWOT research from Manfred von Ardenne and explains how oxygen therapy relates to inflammation and hypoxia, comparing it to hydrogen-based approaches. He discusses founding 1000 Roads after building his own system as an engineer and then producing units for patients, with a focus on affordable at-home use and a protocol of about 15 minutes of cardio with a mask, three to five times per week. Ley shares a customer anecdote about osteoarthritis improvement and notes response times vary. The conversation also covers red light therapy, which he says targets mitochondria to increase oxygen demand and pairs with EWOT by boosting oxygen supply then uptake, with claimed benefits including healing, cognitive function, reduced inflammation, skin and collagen support, and recovery. Ley notes the company ships from the US and internationally, with tariffs varying by country, and directs listeners to 1000roads.com and the 1000 Roads HQ YouTube channel for weekly videos on EWOT and red light therapy.00:00 Welcome & meet Brad Ley (Texas)01:04 Why more oxygen can reduce inflammation: ‘inflammaging', capillaries & hypoxia02:42 Is oxygen ‘rusting' us?

What if stubborn weight gain, brain fog, poor sleep, and chronic inflammation aren't "just aging"—but signals from your gut that started decades earlier? Today's conversation challenges the myth of inevitable decline and shows how understanding your microbiome can make your chronological age truly just a number. After 40, many people find that diets stop working, digestion becomes unpredictable, hormones feel out of control, and inflammation quietly creeps in. This episode explains why gut healing becomes harder with age, what's actually changing biologically, and how restoring gut resilience can transform metabolism, hormones, and healthy longevity. Today's guest brings a rare blend of microbiome research, systems thinking, and real-world clinical insight to guide us. Martha Carlin is a pioneering citizen scientist and microbiome systems researcher. She is the founder and CEO of The BioCollective, collaborating with institutions including Caltech, the University of Chicago, and University College Cork. Her work focuses on how gut microbes drive inflammation, insulin resistance, and chronic disease as we age. Martha's mission began personally—after her husband's Parkinson's diagnosis—leading her to leave a corporate career to investigate healing at the root: the gut.  Episode Timeline: 00:00 — Aging symptoms, gut health, and the microbiome 03:30 — Why gut issues worsen after 40 and why aging conversations miss the microbiome 05:10 — Martha's personal journey into microbiome science after Parkinson's diagnosis 08:45 — Antibiotics, missing microbes, and early Parkinson's gut research 12:30 — What biologically changes in the gut with age 15:40 — Endotoxins, gram-negative bacteria, and chronic inflammation 18:20 — Constipation as an early warning sign, not a nuisance 21:00 — Surfactants, cleaners, bile acids, and hormone recirculation 23:40 — Soil microbiomes and what agriculture teaches us about gut healing 26:30 — Food quality, seed oils, and modern processing challenges 28:40 — Beet kvass and fermented foods for nitric oxide and gut support 30:20 — The estrobolome, cortisol, insulin, and hormone–gut feedback loops 33:00 — Practical first steps to restore gut resilience 36:30 — Common mistakes: extreme diets, fasting, and overcorrection 39:10 — Women, cortisol, and metabolic backlash 41:40 — Listener guidance: simple daily changes that matter most 43:30 — Guest resources Call to Action:  Connect with Martha Carlin:  https://www.instagram.com/biotiquest https://www.facebook.com/BiotiQuest https://www.youtube.com/@BiotiQuest https://twitter.com/biotiquest https://www.linkedin.com/company/biotiquest  Connect with Dr. Gillian Lockitch Download your guide to Build Back a Better Body: Strengthen Bones, Muscles, Joint and Fascia  Connect with Dr. Gillian Lockitch at askdrgill@gmail.com to request a phone conversation or zoom call   Join the Growing Older Living Younger Facebook Community here  Share the Growing Older Living Younger podcast link for anyone you care about and invite them to subscribe    

If you're struggling with brain fog, chronic fatigue, or autoimmune symptoms, this conversation might completely shift how you think about your body's detox system. In it, I sit down with Dr. Gina Nick to discuss why glutathione - our master antioxidant - is absolutely crucial for managing inflammation and autoimmune conditions. We dive deep into why most people need extra glutathione support, how brain fog and anxiety are often neuroinflammation in disguise, and simple daily actions you can take to support your body's natural detox system. This isn't about expensive IV treatments - it's about giving your body the physiologic support it needs to handle our modern world. ***Disclaimer: As an affiliate, I may earn from qualifying purchases made through the links in this episode.***For the complete show notes, links and transcripts, visit inspiredliving.show/231

What if inflammation isn't just something to manage… but something you could actually remove?For decades, chronic inflammation has been treated with suppression — steroids, biologics, immune blockers. But what if there were a way to physically remove inflammatory burden from the bloodstream?In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Pamela Smith — ER physician, toxicologist, hormone specialist, and pioneer in therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) — to explore the emerging science behind physically reducing inflammatory load.We break down:• What actually happens during therapeutic plasma exchange• How inflammation, cytokines, and antigen load circulate in the blood• Why autoimmune disease may be driven by persistent toxin burden• The connection between mold, plastics, metals, and immune dysfunction• Whether TPE can help long COVID, PCOS, cardiovascular disease, and cognitive decline• Who should — and shouldn't — consider this therapyThis is not a hype episode.It's a grounded, nuanced exploration of what's possible when inflammation is treated as something measurable — and potentially removable.If you're navigating autoimmune disease, chronic illness, hormone resistance, long COVID, or simply want to understand the future of inflammation science, this conversation will challenge how you think about immune regulation.Is therapeutic plasma exchange the next frontier in functional medicine — or an emerging tool still finding its evidence base?Let's explore the science.

Are you frustrated with conventional medicine focusing on symptom management instead of root causes?   In this episode of the Boss Body Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Michele Neil-Sherwood, board-certified internal medicine physician and functional medicine expert, to unpack what's really driving chronic illness today.   We dive into advanced cardiovascular inflammation testing (ApoB, LP(a), LDL particle size), mold toxicity, mast cell activation, epigenetics, peptides like BPC-157 and Thymosin Alpha-1, and how molecular hydrogen and red light therapy support true healing.   Dr. Neil-Sherwood shares her powerful journey from corporate medicine to building a root-cause practice focused on authentic longevity — not just living longer, but living stronger.   If you want deeper answers, better labs, and a more strategic approach to your health — this episode is for you.

Have you ever wondered if the oils sitting in your pantry might actually be contributing to inflammation? In this episode, I'm diving into one of the most overlooked pieces of the inflammation puzzle: the types of fats we're using every day. Many of the oils marketed as "healthy" may actually be disrupting omega balance, stressing the gut, and keeping inflammation quietly simmering in the background. I'm breaking down: • What makes certain seed oils inflammatory • Why the omega-6 to omega-3 ratio matters so much • Which fats I personally avoid • The traditional, stable fats I use instead • How to confidently read ingredient labels at the store This conversation builds directly on the last two episodes where I shared our personal health journey through a cancer diagnosis and what chronic inflammation really looks like in the body. If you haven't listened to those yet, I encourage you to start there:

In this episode, Dr. Tom O'Bryan, Founder of theDR.com, shares his insights on the critical role of the gut and immune system in chronic inflammatory diseases. He explains how gluten and environmental toxins trigger inflammation and offers guidance on testing, functional medicine, and reversing health challenges through targeted interventions.

Hey Heal Squad! Ok, we think this episode will blow your mind!  If you've ever felt tired, puffy, brain foggy or all of the above…basically INFLAMMED…this conversation with Dr. Josh Redd is a total answer to all those questions. Dr. Redd, author of The 30-Day Anti-Inflammatory Reset and a leader in functional and personalized medicine, explains to Maria how tiny, chronic inflammatory responses in the body are quietly driving these fatigue-ish flare-ups. The big aha? Inflammation isn't random! It's often your immune system reacting to everyday triggers. The good news: you can calm it. Dr. Redd breaks down how stress, blood sugar, movement, and food can either fuel inflammation or help heal it. For instance, Maria's jaw literally dropped when Dr. Redd explained how coffee could be contributing to her puffiness! You'll also learn why sunlight is a powerful anti-inflammatory tool, which key lab tests can reveal hidden inflammation, and the top two foods most commonly linked to flare-ups. If you've tried everything and still can't figure out why your body feels off, this episode could be the answer you've been waiting for. HEALERS & HEAL LINERS Inflammation isn't just swelling, it's your immune system stuck on high alert: Chronic inflammation can quietly drive fatigue, brain fog, puffiness, hormone issues, and autoimmune flare-ups long before you feel “sick.” Your environment may be as inflammatory as your diet: Sunlight, stress, air quality, water, and even simple habits (like wearing shoes indoors) can either inflame your body or help it heal. Stabilizing blood sugar & removing top trigger foods can change everything:  Keeping glucose steady,  and addressing gluten and dairy,  can dramatically reduce inflammation, improve energy, and calm autoimmune activity.

287: I'm joined by Dr. Daniel Pompa, health coach, author, and founder of the Pompa Program, to break down the truth about intermittent fasting, cellular detox, and inflammation. We explore how fasting actually works at the cellular level, what a real feast day looks like, and how toxins, seed oils, and even dental issues can drive chronic inflammation (and bigger health issues down the line). Dr. Pompa also shares how mercury poisoning reshaped his approach to health and why cholesterol is so misunderstood. If you're doing all the “right” things but still feel off, this episode connects the dots. Topics Discussed: → Is intermittent fasting good or bad for health? → How does cellular detox reduce inflammation? → What causes the “skinny fat” look even in healthy people? → Can heavy metals and environmental toxins damage mitochondria? → Is elevated LDL cholesterol actually bad for your health?
