In this episode of the Change Life Destiny Podcast, we sit down with Alan and Deniece from Plastic Tox to explore a groundbreaking innovation in health diagnostics: testing for microplastics inside the human body.Alan shares how a simple question from his daughter about plastics in the ocean sparked the creation of the Plastic Tox test—a first-of-its-kind at-home kit designed to measure plastic exposure in your bloodstream without contamination. Deniece explains why this matters for practitioners and patients alike, pointing to research linking microplastics to everything from hormone disruption to cognitive decline.Together, they discuss the shocking findings from early studies, the surprising impact of age and zip code on plastic burden, and how clinicians can now use Plastic Tox to add a critical layer to their patient assessments. From lifestyle changes to detox protocols and even the surprising role of blood donation, this conversation shines a light on the hidden toxic load we all carry—and what we can do about it.Connect with PlasticToxWebsite: https://plastictox.comInstagram- https://www.instagram.com/plastictoxChange Life & Destiny is a movement to excite, engage, and educate communities about the importance of taking control of our health and wellness.

Smoking remains the leading cause of preventable disease and death in Canada. A new clinical practice guideline published in CMAJ on tobacco smoking cessation outlines evidence-based behavioural and pharmacological interventions to help patients quit. On this episode of the CMAJ Podcast, Dr. Mojola Omole and Dr. Blair Bigham speak with Dr. Eddy Lang, co-author of the guideline, and Dr. Andrew Pipe, a pioneer in smoking cessation research and practice, about how clinicians can better support patients ready to stop smoking.Dr. Eddy Lang, an emergency physician and professor at the Cumming School of Medicine, describes how the Canadian Task Force on Preventive Health  assessed a wide range of interventions to make sense of a complex evidence base. He outlines the strong recommendations in favour of pharmacological therapies such as nicotine replacement therapy, bupropion, varenicline, and cytosine, as well as behavioural interventions including counselling, group therapy, and quit lines. He also explains the conditional recommendation against e-cigarettes, citing limited long-term safety data and concerns about normalizing their use among youth.Dr. Andrew Pipe, professor of medicine at the Ottawa Heart Institute and co-creator of the Ottawa Model of Smoking Cessation, offers practical guidance for everyday practice. He highlights how a state-of-the-art smoking cessation intervention can be delivered in as little as 26 seconds. This brief approach is non-judgemental, empathetic, and emphasizes that help is available whenever the patient is ready.He also stresses that clinicians should treat cessation pharmacotherapy like any other chronic disease medication—titrated to patient response and continued as long as needed. Pipe emphasizes that nicotine replacement therapy is often underdosed, which undermines its effectiveness. He encourages physicians to combine long-acting patches with rapid-acting forms such as gum or lozenges, and to adjust dosing based on patient comfort, allowing individuals to guide their own titration.This episode underscores that even brief encounters can open the door to meaningful change for patients ready to stop smoking. Asking about smoking status, offering practical, evidence-based assistance, and prescribing cessation therapies in sufficient doses can effectively help patients quit.For more information from our sponsor, go to md.ca/md-differenceComments or questions?

Sound familiar? She gets that you're already doing so much right, but maybe you just need a few tweaks to feel like yourself again.Her favorite quote from fitness instructor Betty Rocker: "All or something is just fine."

Send us a textIn this episode, I sit down with Steven Villagomez, a clinically trained exercise physiologist and one of the most grounded, data-driven health professionals I know. We unpack the real foundations of health—sleep, nervous system regulation, and metabolic recovery—and why none of your efforts in diet, fitness, or supplementation will work without getting these right first. Steven breaks down how simple tools like mouth taping, air quality, and HRV-based coaching can shift everything from glucose regulation to mental clarity.We also dive deep into the current conversation around testosterone, the FDA's quiet reversal on long-standing TRT fears, and how most men are overlooking the root cause: lifestyle stress. Steven explains how regulating SHBG, improving recovery scores, and leveraging hormetic stressors like cold exposure and breathwork can dramatically increase natural testosterone levels—no prescriptions needed. This is a masterclass on what real health optimization looks like when you combine evidence-based practice with lived experience.Most importantly, we explore the mission behind the Make America Healthy Again movement and why it's time to reclaim our agency from a system driven by pharmaceutical profits. Steven and I talk about the urgent need for preventive care, functional diagnostics, and coaching that connects the dots—because health doesn't come from symptom management; it comes from understanding your body, asking better questions, and showing up with intention.

"Any time you can reward employees for doing the right thing, to me, it's benefiting the employer group, it's benefitting everybody.” - David Mallen You can provide employees with the best healthcare benefits in the world, but if they don't know how to navigate the healthcare system, those benefits aren't very effective. David Mallen, EVP of Partnerships at HealthJoy, joined me this week in studio to discuss care navigation and how we make benefits plans more effective for employees.  Having personally used Healthjoy, I think there's immense value in a care navigation solution like this; we need to empower healthcare consumers to understand that they can often get the same/better care for cheaper, both to them and the health plan.
