Podcasts about Iodine

Why are thyroid disorders, hormone imbalances, and certain chronic illnesses becoming more common? In this episode, Dr. Jen speaks with integrative medicine pioneer Dr. David Brownstein about iodine deficiency, thyroid health, environmental toxins, natural hormone therapy, and the limitations of symptom-focused medicine. Dr. Brownstein shares how his father's dramatic improvement with thyroid and testosterone treatment changed the course of his medical career, eventually leading him to investigate iodine's role throughout the body. They discuss how bromide and fluoride may interfere with iodine, why iodized salt may not provide enough for every tissue, how iodine status can be assessed, and why individualized, root-cause care remains central to long-term health. Dr. David Brownstein, MD, is a board-certified family physician, Medical Director of the Center for Holistic Medicine in West Bloomfield, Michigan, and a leading voice in integrative medicine. After recognizing that conventional medications often failed to address the underlying causes of chronic illness, he shifted his practice toward nutrition, hormone balance, thyroid care, environmental medicine, and individualized treatment. Dr. Brownstein is the author of numerous books, including Iodine: Why You Need It, Why You Can't Live Without It, and is widely known for his clinical work involving iodine, natural thyroid therapy, salt, hormonal health, and environmental toxins.Website: https://www.drbrownstein.comPODCAST: Thank you for listening please subscribe and share!

Today, we are joined by Morley Robbins, creator of the Root Cause Protocol, to expose the systemic mineral dysregulation that is driving modern chronic illness.While many focus on iron levels, Morley reveals why the real "mineral disaster" lies in copper deficiency, magnesium depletion, and the vital role of bioavailable iodine.

Kill phases take weeks. Rebuild phases take months. Almost nobody does the second part — which is why so many SIBO, H. pylori and parasite protocols end with the same histamine symptoms they started with. Liz Roman and Becca Chilczenkowski answer five listener questions: iodine as a growth regulator behind cysts, fibroids and thyroid nodules; estrogen dominance with normal labs; a child's eczema through the gut; post-surgery constipation; and telling venous insufficiency apart from lymphedema and a Baker's cyst. *** CONNECT:

This week, we conclude our 4-part series on the 6th-leading cause of death in America.  We discuss how to protect the brain at all stages of life.  In this episode, we talk about:—Why Dr. Prather thinks it is an excuse that Alzheimer's is increasing because people are just living longer or it's diagnosed better, but that it is actually increasing because there is some kind of stressor that wasn't there before. —The importance of protecting Brain Health starting in the womb.  And how Iodine is the most critical part of Brain development and will determine how smart your child will be. —How breastfeeding is more beneficial for the development for the baby's brain and cuts down on brain problems later in life.—Why an annual Hair Analysis for children and adults  is important to identify Heavy Metal toxins, which damage the brain.—The link between gut health and Alzheimer's.  And the reason Dr. Prather recommends an annual stool kit for everyone (even babies) to identify the parasites and infections that can damage your Brain health. —How probiotics in the diet (such as fermented foods) and high Fiber intake are key reasons for healthy longevity in the "Blue Zone" areas of the world which have a large number of people living over the age of 100. —The health benefits of the Biblical dietary laws.—Why Sunshine is the best Vitamin D for the body, and is also estimated to provide 34 nutrients that come directly from the Sun.   And why Dr. Prather says it is "untrue" when they say Sunshine is bad for us. —The role proper sleep plays in Dementia and Alzheimer's because our body washes the brain of the amyloid plaques while we sleep.  And how using pharmaceuticals for sleep actually interferes with this process.    —How being around grandchildren is scientifically proven to help both the health of the grandparent and the development of the child. http://www.TheVoiceOfHealthRadio.com*Receive exclusive bonus content as a member of our Voice Of Health Patreon Community:https://www.patreon.com/cw/VoiceofHealthPodcast

In this episode, host Doug Beitz sits down with ZuZu Armes, a holistic health educator, author, speaker, and co-founder of Holistic Health Educators and the Lilyfield's Retreat Center. After reversing multiple chronic illnesses in her own body—including epilepsy—Zuzu has dedicated decades to helping thousands restore vibrant health through plant-based nutrition, mineral density, and frequency healing.  Doug and ZuZu explore how altering your diet directly impacts your electrical system, mental clarity, worldview, and intuitive capacity. They dive deep into the science of bioavailable minerals, vibrational frequencies of high- versus low-energy foods, gut and cellular restoration, natural hormone balance, and practical steps men can take to regain energy, focus, and long-term vitality.  Resources & Links Mentioned • ZuZu's Website: zuzuunleashed.com (Download the free "Fueling for Life" eBook & pH Chart) • Platform & Retreat: Holistic Health Educators & Lilyfield's Retreat Center  • Book Mentioned: Eat to Live by Dr. Joel Fuhrman  Connect with the Guests: Website: https://www.zuzuunleashed.com  Holistic Health Educators: https://www.holistichealtheducators.com  Lily Fields Retreat Center: https://lillyfieldscenter.com  Social Media: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/zuzu_unleashed/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ZuZuUnleashed Connect with Doug Beitz: Email: info@dougbeitz.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dougbeitz/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dougbeitz/ Website: https://buymeacoffee.com/dougbeitz Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6mQ258nugC3lyw3SpvYuoK?si=7cec409527d34438 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/intuitive-conversations-with-doug/id1593172364 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/doug-beitz-472a4b338/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@dougbeitz178

We are in the third week of our 4-part series on the 6th-leading cause of death in America.  In this episode, we focus on the thorough diagnostics at Holistic Integration that reveal the root causes of brain deterioration.  In this episode, you'll discover:—Why Dr. Prather believes there are more contributing factors to Alzheimer's than just the amyloid plaque theory.  And the six factors or patterns that Dr. Prather looks for as potential underlying causes to Alzheimer's.—The SPECT imaging that is critical to any diagnosis of Alzheimer's.  And the blood tests that can actually help to prevent deterioration of brain health if diagnosed early.—How a Cardiovascular workup is important for Alzheimer's and Dementia since you are more likely to develop Alzheimer's if you have Cardiovascular disease. —The surprising connection between a person's fingerprint patterns and Alzheimer's. —How proper levels of Vitamin D can help reduce your chances of developing Alzheimer's by 40%.  And the importance of checking the B Vitamins and Iodine.—The reason that inflammation markers are "extremely important" for Alzheimer's. —How Alzheimer's is referred to as Type 3 Diabetes due to the impact of glycotoxic levels of blood sugar on the brain.—Why Dr. Prather says he would refuse to take on a patient with Alzheimer's or Dementia unless they agreed to do a Hair Analysis.  And how a Hair Analysis shows your levels of heavy metals like Aluminum, which seems to be most associated with Alzheimer's and Dementia. —The "tremendous amount of changes" that Dr. Prather sees in emotional and brain health by balancing the Copper-Zinc ratio. —Why an annual stool kit is so essential because of the connection between gut health and brain function.  And what the "research grade" Autonomic Nervous System or ANS Test at Holistic Integration reveals about your brain health .http://www.TheVoiceOfHealthRadio.com*Receive exclusive bonus content as a member of our Voice Of Health Patreon Community:https://www.patreon.com/cw/VoiceofHealthPodcast

In this episode, Dr. Eric Osansky welcomes back Dr. Angela Mazza, a triple board-certified endocrinologist specializing in thyroid health, metabolic medicine, and integrative endocrine care. The discussion centers around two topics Dr. Mazza has recently published journal articles on: iodine and thyroid nodules. Together, they explore why iodine remains one of the most controversial nutrients in thyroid medicine and why individualized care is critical when determining whether supplementation is appropriate. Dr. Mazza explains the delicate balance of iodine intake, discussing why both deficiency and excess can create thyroid problems. She also shares her approach to iodine testing, addresses common misconceptions about iodine supplementation, and discusses special considerations for Hashimoto's thyroiditis, Graves' disease, pregnancy, and breastfeeding. The conversation then shifts into thyroid nodules, where Dr. Mazza explains the most common causes of nodule formation, the role of inflammation, estrogen, insulin resistance, environmental toxins, and genetics, along with how toxic nodules differ from non-functioning nodules. The episode wraps up with an in-depth discussion on goiters, radiofrequency ablation (RFA), thyroid cancer, and modern alternatives to surgery. Dr. Mazza also explains how she evaluates thyroid nodules using ultrasound and shares her perspective on personalized treatment approaches. If you want a clearer, more balanced understanding of iodine, thyroid nodules, and goiters, you'll get a lot out of this episode.  Free resources for your thyroid healthGet your FREE Thyroid and Immune Health Restoration Action Points Checklist at SaveMyThyroidChecklist.comHigh-Quality Nutritional Supplements For Hyperthyroidism and Hashimoto' s Have you checked out my new ThyroSave supplement line?

The thyroid gland is like a precision instrument that requires the right amount of iodine to function properly. Excessive iodine intake can lead to the Wolff-Chaikoff effect, causing a temporary shutdown of hormone production. Influences promoting high-dose iodine supplementation may be counterproductive, and the solution may be to take less iodine. The importance of proper testing and a balanced approach to iodine intake is emphasized.TakeawaysWolff-Chaikoff effect causes temporary shutdown of hormone productionHigh-dose iodine supplementation may be counterproductiveBalanced approach and proper testing are crucial for iodine intakeChapters00:00 The Sensible Approach to Iodine Intake

There are a lot more ways to reveal a fingerprint than the black powder you see on TV.In this second part of our forensic chemistry series with Nicki Stewart, we explore the surprising chemistry behind fingerprints. From powders and iodine vapor to super glue fumes and chemical reactions, we break down how forensic scientists reveal invisible fingerprints—and why choosing the right method depends entirely on the surface, the chemistry, and the evidence they're trying to preserve.

Your labs came back "normal" — so why are you exhausted, freezing, losing hair, and unable to lose weight? Because iron, iodine, and estrogen are three legs of one stool, and a standard panel reads them in isolation. Liz and Becca unpack the trifecta: the ferritin your doctor never runs, why your breasts and ovaries need iodine, the estrogen dominance behind heavy periods and PMS rage, and exactly what to test before you guess. *** CONNECT:

The thyroid gland is the master endocrine  gland that regulates metabolism and energy. Mainstream medicine views the thyroid as an isolated organ and only treats the thyroid when lab tests indicate that it is not functioning up to par.   Holistic medicine takes a broader view of thyroid health, considers its relationship to other signs and symptoms and works in conjunction with other endocrine glands such as the  adrenals. Thyroid imbalance can cause low body temperature , cold intolerance, difficulty losing fat, red face and flushing, hairloss on your eyebrows and other areas! Nutritional components can support thyroid health! These include Selenium, Zinc, Iodine, Vitamin B-12, Vitamin D and maintaining a healthy microbiome. 

What if your thyroid labs are “normal”… but you still feel exhausted, cold, foggy, and stuck?In this episode of Accelerated Health with Sara Banta, I reveal why iodine may be the most misunderstood nutrient in thyroid health—and how it impacts far more than just thyroid hormones.Iodine plays a critical role in metabolism, mitochondrial energy, detoxification, immune function, and hormonal balance, yet many people remain deficient or blocked by modern toxins like fluoride, bromine, and chlorine—even when labs look fine.If you've been told everything is normal but still don't feel right, this episode will change how you understand thyroid health.Listen now to uncover the hidden role of iodine in your energy and metabolism.Supplements Featured In This Episode:• Acceleradine® Iodine https://www.acceleratedhealthproducts.com/products/acceleradine-iodine-supplement  • Accelerated Liver Care® https://www.acceleratedhealthproducts.com/products/accelerated-liver-care• Accelerated Ancient Salt® https://www.acceleratedhealthproducts.com/products/accelerated-ancient-salt-4-oz • Hume Body Pod Scale: HumeHealth.com/AHP Not sure what food to eat and avoid?

Your Free T3 Is in Range — and That's the Problem Women are diagnosed with thyroid conditions at far higher rates than men — but what if the real thyroid crisis isn't being diagnosed at all? In this episode, Dr. Terri breaks down the overlooked, under-tested, and misunderstood reasons why women's thyroid systems fail, and why the standard lab panel almost every clinician runs is only telling half the story. From the gut's central role in hormone conversion, to the three minerals most women are chronically deficient in, to the enzyme that stress quietly dismantles — Dr. Terri maps out a comprehensive picture of thyroid dysfunction that goes far beyond what most patients hear at a routine checkup. If you've ever been told "your thyroid is normal" but you're still cold, fatigued, foggy, or stuck — this episode was made for you. This episode is for women who've been dismissed with a normal TSH, anyone on Synthroid or levothyroxine who's still symptomatic, and clinicians ready to expand their thyroid testing approach. What you'll discover: Why women are more vulnerable to thyroid conversion failure — and how hormones, gut health, and chronic stress all play a compounding role [6:21] The ferritin threshold that makes or breaks T4-to-T3 conversion — and what to do if you fall in the "gray zone" [9:24] How selenium deficiency can cause thyroid cells to literally burst from the inside out — and the direct link to Hashimoto's most doctors miss [15:39] The full comprehensive thyroid panel you should be asking for: TSH, free T4, free T3, and TPO antibodies [21:31] Why a free T3 "within range" is not the same as optimal — and what the bell curve data actually reveals about all-cause mortality risk [22:47] The deiodase enzyme most clinicians never discuss — and why synthetic T4 medications may be making conversion even harder [27:34] If your thyroid labs come back "normal" but you're still symptomatic, the problem isn't you — it's the range. -- The Dr. Terri Show is presented by EVEXIAS Health Solutions.

Are you doing "all the right things" but still gaining weight, losing hair, feeling exhausted, foggy, anxious, or stuck in your body? Your thyroid may be the missing piece. In this powerful episode of The Girlfriend Doctor Podcast, Dr. Anna Cabeca welcomes Dr. Amie Hornaman—also known as "The Thyroid Fixer," founder of the Advanced Thyroid and Hormone Clinic, host of The Thyroid Fixer podcast, and author of The Thyroid Fix: The No Nonsense Guide to Fix Fatigue, Fogginess and Fat That Won't Budge. Together, Dr. Anna and Dr. Amie unpack why thyroid dysfunction is so often missed in perimenopause and menopause—and why a "normal" TSH may not tell the whole story. They discuss Hashimoto's, weight-loss resistance, hair loss, fatigue, iodine, T2, reverse T3, thyroid antibodies, hormone shifts, stress, environmental toxins, and why women must advocate for a complete thyroid panel. In this episode, you'll learn: Why fatigue, hair loss, depression, constipation, cold intolerance, and stubborn belly fat may point to thyroid dysfunction The full thyroid panel Dr. Amie recommends beyond TSH How perimenopause and menopause can trigger or worsen Hashimoto's Why T4-only medication may not work for every woman The role of iodine, selenium, magnesium, vitamin D, black cumin seed oil, and T2 Why thyroid optimization is a longevity strategy—not just a weight-loss conversation Dr. Amie also shares her personal journey of misdiagnosis, thyroid recovery, PCOS, and navigating endometrial cancer with courage, honesty, and functional medicine wisdom. Listen now and remember: you are your best health advocate—and there is always one next right step.

Save your seat in the free Thyroid and Hormone class https://fixyourthyroid.com/natalie  If you are a woman in midlife who has been told everything is fine when you know in your body that something is NOT fine, this episode is going to change everything. I have Dr. Amie Hornaman, The Thyroid Fixer, back on the show, and we are going somewhere we have never gone before. One in eight women will develop a thyroid condition in her lifetime. Eighty-eight percent of us are metabolically unhealthy. And yet most doctors run ONE test, look at one number, tell us we are normal, and send us home with an antidepressant. Meanwhile we are gaining weight, losing our hair, can't sleep, can't think, can't lose a pound to save our lives, and being told it is just stress, just aging, just menopause. Today we are tearing that apart. Dr. Amie saw SEVEN doctors before she was finally diagnosed. She is now licensed to prescribe thyroid and bioidentical hormones in all 50 states and most of Canada. She built the Better Thyroid and Hormone Institute, hosts The Thyroid (and Hormone) Fixer Podcast, and has helped thousands of women globally finally get answers. We go DEEP on: Why the standard TSH-only test misses almost everyone, and the six tests you need to ask for by name THYROPAUSE: Dr. Amie's term for what happens when thyroid dysfunction collides with perimenopause and menopause (and why so many women are being treated for the wrong one) The T4-only medication trap: why Synthroid and levothyroxine fail an estimated 98% of patients Reverse T3, the silent saboteur that blocks your active thyroid hormone from getting into your cells Natural desiccated thyroid, the controversy, FDA scrutiny of animal-derived medications, and where Dr. Amie stands T2: the FORGOTTEN thyroid hormone with 30+ years of research that burns fat at the mitochondrial level, does not suppress your own thyroid, does not jack up your heart rate, does not require a prescription, and is showing up in studies as a potential anti-obesity treatment What Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro are actually doing to your thyroid (and why some women lose ZERO weight on GLP-1s no matter how high they push the dose) The estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, cortisol, and insulin connection: why you cannot fix the thyroid without addressing the whole hormonal system Antibody-support strategies: gluten elimination, black cumin seed oil, low-dose naltrexone, and thymosin alpha Iodine titration cautions, medical gaslighting, and what to say when your doctor refuses to run the full panel The Monday morning action plan: exactly what to do this week if you suspect your thyroid is the missing piece This is not a thyroid 101 episode. This is the conversation I wish every midlife woman was given the day her labs came back normal. You are not broken. You are not crazy. And you are not alone.

He is also director of the Center's groundbreaking residential health education program. Dr. Goldhamer has supervised the fasts of thousands of patients. Under his guidance, the Center has become one of the premier training facilities for doctors wishing to gain certification in the supervision of therapeutic fasting. Dr. Goldhamer was the principal investigator in two landmark studies. The first: "Medically Supervised Water-Only Fasting in the Treatment of Hypertension" appeared in the June 2001 issue of the Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics. Its publication marked a turning point in the evolution of evidence supporting the benefits of water-only fasting. The second study: "Medically Supervised Water-Only Fasting in the Treatment of Borderline Hypertension," appeared in the October 2002 issue of the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine. Currently, Dr. Goldhamer is directing a team that is developing a prospective study, incorporating random assignment and long-term follow-up on the cost and clinical outcomes in the treatment of diabetes and high blood pressure with fasting and a health-promoting diet. After completing his chiropractic education at Western States Chiropractic College in Portland, Oregon, Dr. Goldhamer traveled to Australia, where he became licensed as an osteopathic physician. He is the author of The Health Promoting Cookbook and co-author of The Pleasure Trap: Mastering The Hidden Force That Undermines Health and Happiness.

Dr. Prather says that "100% of women" need help in balancing their hormones based on the lab tests he sees in patients.  In this episode, you'll learn:—How women have 64 different Hormones to consider when trying to balance them, while men basically have to worry about 2.  And why Dr. Prather says that balancing a woman's hormones is like trying to target "a jackrabbit jumping all over the place".—Why Dr. Prather says that every woman should think about being on some sort of supplementation to help balance her hormones.—The symptoms of hormonal imbalance, including: hot flashes, mood changes, cramps, irregular periods, immune system issues, heart palpitations, and even digestion problems. —The risks of pharmaceutical hormones, which only 2% of women should actually be taking according to research.  And why bioidentical hormones are NOT natural, even though some women taking them think they are.—The role of "food grade" Herbals, Glandulars, and Homeopathics in helping the body to regulate your hormones naturally and without the risk of side effects.  And how Holistic Integration can actually test to see which ones will work best for you.—Why Dr. Prather says that you are not going to balance the hormones if your Copper/Zinc ratio is not balanced.  And how Breast Cancer and Ovarian Cancer "increase quite dramatically" when a woman has too high Copper levels.—How balancing your hormones can often balance your Cholesterol.  And how getting your Cholesterol too low (under 140) will interfere with the balance of your hormones. —Why Iodine "is absolutely critical for females."  And how women who take Thyroid medication have "a very large jump in your chances of having Breast Cancer" and low Iodine is "the leading cause of Breast Cancer".—Why Dr. Prather says that, if your Liver is not working right, "you will never get your Hormones completely balanced".  And how the Adrenals can make every single hormone in the body, but are low-functioning in almost everyone.—The Diagnostics you should have to diagnose the state of your Hormone Health.  And why Chiropractic & Acupuncture are important for balancing out your Hormones and causing "almost immediate" changes.http://www.TheVoiceOfHealthRadio.com*Receive exclusive bonus content as a member of our Voice Of Health Patreon Community:https://www.patreon.com/cw/VoiceofHealthPodcast

Michael #2: Reverting the incremental GC in Python 3.14 and 3.15 Python 3.14 shipped with a new incremental garbage collector, but production reports of severe memory pressure (Neil Schemenauer measured up to 5× peak RSS on pathological cyclic workloads) have pushed the core team and Steering Council to revert it in both 3.14 and 3.15 - returning to the 3.13-era generational GC. This is the second time the inc GC has been pulled back: it was also reverted right before 3.13.0 final, and it shipped in 3.14 without going through the PEP process. The tradeoff is real: Neil's benchmarks showed max GC pause times of 1.3ms with inc GC versus 26ms with the generational one - great for latency-sensitive apps, terrible for memory-constrained ones. Release manager Hugo van Kemenade will ship 3.14.5 early with the revert, and Gregory Smith floated the idea of a 3.14.5rc1 - the first patch-release RC since 3.9.2 back in 2021. Tim Peters spent the thread doing live forensics on Windows, running a toy deque program that should cap at 1GB and watching it balloon to 15.6GB on a 16GB machine - and discovered the gen0 collector effectively never fires under the new scheme. Tim's bigger meta-point: CPython has a chronic shortage of real-world GC benchmarks, pyperformance has "basically no interesting" cyclic workloads, and users almost never share real data - so core devs keep flying blind on changes like this. Django maintainer Adam Johnson published a blog post mid-thread documenting a real memory "leak" in Django's migration system caused by inc GC, with a manual gc.collect() workaround - the listener-facing receipt that this wasn't just theoretical. If the inc GC comes back for 3.16, it'll go through a proper PEP, and the discussion is already shifting toward keeping both collectors available via a startup flag - which Neil and Sergey Miryanov have both prototyped.

You might be doing everything right and still feel tired, foggy, or out of balance. One missing piece could be iodine. This conversation brings attention to iodine deficiency, a hidden issue linked to thyroid problems, low energy, brain fog, and poor detoxification. With modern soil depletion and exposure to toxins like fluoride and bromide, most people are not getting enough. You'll learn why iodine plays a key role in metabolism, mental clarity, skin health, and overall wellness. It is not just about adding a supplement. It is about understanding absorption, dosage, and how iodine supports your body in clearing toxins and restoring balance. The bigger picture is simple. Health is not one fix. When you combine proper nutrients, clean habits, and awareness of what your body needs, you start to feel the shift. This is your reminder to look deeper and support your body at the root level.   In this Episode, You'll Learn: Sarah's Family Health Challenges The Importance of Iodine Iodine Deficiency and Symptoms Iodine Sources and Absorption Iodine Dosage and Safety Iodine's Role in Detoxification and Energy Iodine's Impact on Skin and Brain Health Iodine's Role in Preventing Disease Where to Find Iodine and Support   Connect with Sara Banta: https://acceleratedhealthproducts.com/Happy  Connect with Anna: Email: annamarie@happywholeyou.com / info@HappyWholeYou.com Website: www.happywholeyou.com / https://linktr.ee/happywholeyou Personal Website: www.DrAnnaMarie.com Instagram: @happywholeyou Personal Instagram: @Dr.Anna.Marie Facebook: Happy Whole You LinkedIn: Anna Marie Frank Venmo: @happywholeyou

What if the products you use every single day—your water bottle, your skincare, your food containers—are quietly impacting your fertility? In this episode, Ali dives into The Plastic Detox on Netflix—the documentary that has everyone questioning what's in their homes (and their bodies). Ali is joined by Dr. Shanna Swan, one of the world's leading researchers on environmental exposures and reproductive health—and a featured expert in the film. Ali and Dr. Swan talk about how the doc came to be, the real link between plastics, chemicals, and fertility, and how you can make realistic, non-overwhelming changes in your daily life.

Most women are suffering for years from anxiety, gut problems, low libido, and brain fog because no one is treating the real cause: their hormones. This episode is a masterclass in women's hormone optimization, covering everything from vaginal delivery of bioidentical hormones to why low estrogen destroys your gut, your sex drive, your mitochondria, and your marriage. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Dr. Sarah Daccarett, MD, a physician, longevity expert, and the founder and CEO of Inner Balance, a modern women's health company redefining hormone therapy, sexual wellness, and aging. She has treated tens of thousands of women across all 50 states and is known for challenging outdated medical models and building science-driven solutions that reflect female biology rather than borrowing protocols designed for men. She created Oestra, a revolutionary hormone therapy delivery system, along with Libida, an on-demand libido solution that targets desire at the brain level, making her one of the most credible and innovative voices in functional medicine and women's longevity today. Together, they expose why conventional medicine has failed women for decades, why patches and pills are nearly useless, and what actually works for anti-aging, metabolism, longevity, and human performance. Dr. Sarah makes the case that hormone replacement therapy is not a last resort for menopausal women. It is a foundational longevity strategy that every woman should consider starting in her 20s. You'll Learn: Why vaginal hormone delivery outperforms every other delivery method for women How low estrogen destroys your gut lining, gallbladder, and immune system long before menopause symptoms appear Why a carnivore or animal-based diet raises estrogen and why fiber lowers it How progesterone converts to testosterone in women, and why you may not need a testosterone prescription The real reason SSRIs get prescribed when hormone replacement therapy should come first Why iodine is essential for breast health, estrogen metabolism, and thyroid function How oxalates from "superfoods" like matcha, spinach, and almonds accumulate in your ovaries, uterus, and kidneys Why both partners need hormone replacement therapy for a relationship to thrive How hormones control mitochondria, dopamine, norepinephrine, and every system in your body Thank you to our sponsors! - Qualia | If you want to take the guesswork out of maintaining high NAD+ levels as you age, go to www.qualialife.com/daveNAD to get clinically proven Qualia NAD+ backed by a 100 day money back guarantee and code DAVENAD at checkout gets you an extra 15% off. - Igniton | Try risk free at Igniton.com and use code DAVE at checkout for 15% off.

Iodine is special. It’s the heaviest element that’s commonly needed by living organisms. In humans, it’s used by the thyroid to produce growth-regulating hormones. It’s found in seafood and other products. The element itself is created in some of the most violent events in the universe. In fact, so were almost all of the heaviest elements – anything more substantial than iron. The elements are forged in the rapid neutron-capture process. “Seed” elements are slammed by huge amounts of neutrons – the bits of an atomic nucleus with no electric charge. That builds heavier elements, including gold, silver, uranium – and iodine. Lighter elements are forged in the hearts of stars. More-massive stars create heavier elements. But they can’t make anything heavier than iron. The element-making process shuts down, and the star explodes. The blast can produce huge numbers of neutrons, which are sent flying at high speed. They ram into the debris, creating heavier elements. But not all exploding stars produce the right conditions to make heavier elements – especially the heaviest of all. Those elements can be formed when two ultra-dense stellar corpses ram together. The merger splatters the region with neutrons. They can forge enough heavy elements to make many planets as massive as Earth. Iodine probably is made by both types of events, which sprinkle this life-giving element throughout the cosmos. Script by Damond Benningfield

Iodine is far more important than you might think. It was discovered accidentally, yet it can be found almost everywhere. It's something so small you only need a trace of it, yet without it, entire populations can suffer devastating health consequences.  It has been used as a medicine and a disinfectant, and is even a critical chemical in the production of many of the electronic devices that we use today. Learn more about iodine and why this element matters so much on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Today's episode is a special one — it's a replay of Ali's 2023 conversation with Dr. Lucky Sekhon. Lucky is a board-certified reproductive endocrinologist, infertility specialist, and OB-GYN at RMA of New York. She's also one of the most trusted voices on social media and TV when it comes to fertility, IVF, and reproductive health, breaking down complicated topics with clarity, compassion, and actual science.In this conversation, Lucky opens up about her own family-building journey — including how, when it came time to start her family, she chose to create embryos and go through IVF herself. Ali and Lucky talk about what it's like when the fertility doctor becomes the fertility patient, how that perspective shapes the way she treats her own patients, and why she's so passionate about helping people understand their reproductive options.Since this interview originally aired, Lucky has also written a fantastic book called The Lucky Egg, which helps people better understand fertility, IVF, and reproductive health. So whether you're hearing this conversation for the first time or coming back to it, it's a really thoughtful look at fertility from both sides of the exam table.EPISODE SPONSORS: THE WORK OF ART BOOK SERIESAli's Children's Book Series about IVF, IUI and Family Building Through Assisted Reproductive Technology https://www.infertileafgroup.com/booksThe 3-book bundle is now just $49 (normally $79)!The latest book in the Work of ART series, “You Are a Work of ART," is for every kiddo born through ART -- and the people who love them.PHERDALIG: @pherdal_sciencePherDal is the world's first and only FDA-cleared, sterile, at-home insemination kit designed to help people build their families in the comfort of home.

What happens when one of the most disciplined bodies in the world can't do the one thing everyone assumes it should? On this episode -- one of our most downloaded of all time -- Ali sits down with Mathilde Froustey, principal dancer at the San Francisco Ballet and widely considered one of the most extraordinary dancers in the world.Born in Bordeaux, France, Mathilde began dancing at just nine years old, training at the prestigious Marseille National School of Ballet and the Paris Opera Ballet School before rising to the top of the international ballet world. Onstage, her body is her instrument — powerful, precise, and seemingly unstoppable. But behind the curtain, Mathilde has been fighting battles that almost no one in the dance world talks about. In this candid and emotional conversation, she opens up for the first time about her experience with infertility — a subject she says remains deeply taboo in professional dance. Mathilde shares what it was like to go through IVF while performing at the highest level, navigating intense body scrutiny, and hearing painful comments about her appearance during one of the most vulnerable periods of her life. She also talks about her past struggle with an eating disorder, the pressure dancers face to maintain a certain body type, and the silent toll of trying to build a family inside a culture that rarely makes space for it.“In the dance world, infertility is a taboo subject,” Mathilde says.Not anymore.This is a powerful conversation about perfection, pressure, and what it means to reclaim your body — both onstage and off.EPISODE SPONSORS: THE WORK OF ART BOOK SERIESAli's Children's Book Series about IVF, IUI and Family Building Through Assisted Reproductive Technology https://www.infertileafgroup.com/booksThe 3-book bundle is now just $49 (normally $79)!The latest book in the Work of ART series, “You Are a Work of ART," is for every kiddo born through ART -- and the people who love them.PHERDALIG: @pherdal_sciencePherDal is the world's first and only FDA-cleared, sterile, at-home insemination kit designed to help people build their families in the comfort of home.

It's Endometriosis Awareness Month. Ali's guest this week, Holly Abel, was eleven years old when her debilitating periods started. For decades, doctors told her it was “normal.” That she was dramatic. Hormonal. Sensitive. It wasn't normal. In early 2023, Holly was finally diagnosed with severe stage 4 endometriosis — affecting multiple organs throughout her body. Shortly after, she experienced a miscarriage. In December 2023, she underwent major surgery. Then in March 2024, after a routine HSG, everything began to unravel. By early May, she was in septic shock and given a 10% chance to live. In July, a total hysterectomy saved her life… and ended her ability to carry children. Holly talks about all of this and more in an educational, emotional episode about medical trauma, advocacy and survival.
