On this episode of Vitality Radio, we continue our deep dive into systemic enzymes, building on the foundation laid in episodes #530 & 566. This time, the focus is on practical protocols that combine Fibrenza with key companions and targeted nutrient support for cardiovascular health, immune resilience, and recovery. You'll learn how systemic enzymes modulate the immune system for conditions like autoimmune disease and fibromyalgia, why pairing them with other supportive supplements can retrain immune balance and strengthen the gut lining at the root. Jared also shares cardiovascular strategies post-COVID — using Fibrenza with supplements that support nitric oxide, vessel flexibility, and inflammation balance. Finally, the discussion turns to exercise recovery, with protocols designed to accelerate healing, reduce soreness, and protect tendons and ligaments. This episode is about root cause solutions — supporting balance, reducing inflammatory debris, and nourishing the body so it can do what it was designed to do: heal and thrive.Products:Fibrenza Systemic EnzymeKyolic Moducare Daily Immune SupportVital 5 Precision Probiotic Vital SporesNatural Factors L-Glutamine PowderGet Well Stay WellN.O.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOWFirst-Mover Advantage: HPQ is the only known company with a proven direct process from quartz to fumed silica—cutting cost, emissions, and complexity.Two Global Giants Testing Samples: One under LOI, another under NDA and re-engaging after prior testing—signaling escalating interest and competitive optionality.Modular, Scalable Tech: Enables regional production with lower capex to capitalize on tariff wars and ESG mandates.Domestic Market Opportunity: Canada's $150–200M USD fumed silica market currently has no Canadian manufacturer — HPQ is positioned to fill that gap.When the $10 Billion industry leading manufacturer asks for early samples of your product — before you're even ready to ship — it signals more than interest. It signals intent. HPQ Silicon $HPQ / $HPQFF, alongside partner PyroGenesis, has entered a critical phase in its commercialization path for fumed silica — an essential compound used in everything from cosmetics to construction.HPQ's one-step quartz-to-fumed silica process eliminates the toxic chemicals, high emissions, and billion-dollar infrastructure typically required by incumbents who are working with outdated processes. That innovation is now moving out of the pilot plant and into the hands of world-leading producers.THE MILESTONE THAT MATTERSHPQ has shipped its first batch of fumed silica to a leading global manufacturer Evonik for evaluation. This follows third-party validation at the lab level and successful scale-up to pilot production.“This collaboration gives us access to over 80 years of real-world manufacturing and market expertise—an advantage that accelerates our development and strengthens our commercialization efforts.” — Bernard Tourillon, CEO, HPQ SiliconA second global player, which had previously received a small test batch and is under NDA, has also re-engaged — requesting additional material from a higher-quality production run. The significance: HPQ now has multiple industry leaders testing samples, placing the company in a far stronger commercial negotiation position than ever before.THE STRATEGIC OUTLOOKRather than lock into early-stage agreements, HPQ is preserving flexibility to pursue the most advantageous commercial path — whether via joint ventures, licensing, or direct production. With a clean, modular process that eliminates toxic byproducts and avoids billion-dollar capex, HPQ is not just participating in a $2B+ market — it's challenging its foundation.For investors, this isn't merely a materials science breakthrough. It's a potential paradigm shift. With validation underway, commercial discussions accelerating, and strategic optionality intact, HPQ is emerging as a first mover with the technology and timing on its side.Watch the full interview with CEO Bernard Tourillon to understand why the world's top producers are now knocking on HPQ's door.

Send a text to Melissa and she'll answer it on the next episode. Dive into the fascinating world of constitutional prescribing, a concept that represents perhaps the most misunderstood territory in homeopathy. As practitioners and patients alike grapple with identifying "constitutional remedies," this episode clarifies the crucial distinction between what's truly constitutional versus what's fundamental or pathological.Your constitution represents your genetic blueprint—the unchangeable aspects of your physical structure, metabolism, and baseline tendencies. Drawing from the teachings of Dr. Francisco Xavier Eizayaga (1923-2001), we explore how your constitutional type (primarily Calc Carb, Sulfur, Silica, or Phosphorus) differs fundamentally from the layers of acquired conditions that build throughout life.Melissa and Bri untangle the confusion between classical homeopathic approaches, where "constitutional" often means whatever remedy matches your current symptoms, versus the more precise definition where constitutional remedies strengthen your healthy baseline state. This distinction changes everything about treatment priorities—we must clear pathologies and fundamental issues before supporting the constitution.Physical characteristics provide important clues, from the short, square physique of Calc Carb types to the tall, thin frame of Phosphorus constitutions. Yet these indicators represent just part of a comprehensive assessment that includes genetic tendencies, basic temperament, and inherent strengths and weaknesses.Whether you're new to homeopathy or an experienced practitioner, understanding constitutional prescribing transforms how you approach treatment. It shifts the focus from constantly changing remedies to recognizing the unchangeable foundation while clearing acquired layers. By strengthening your constitutional vitality, you create resilience against the energy-draining stressors of modern life.Want to explore this fascinating topic in greater depth? Join us for our upcoming live course on constitutional prescribing, where we'll delve into detailed remedy profiles, potency selection, dosing strategies, and practical case taking approaches.You may also gain Access to my Fullscript dispensary and save 30% by going to: https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/mcrenshawFIND ME!

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOWUntapped Market: Canada consumes ~24,000 tonnes of fumed silica annually. HPQ aims to become the country's first domestic producer.Cost Advantage: Traditional plants cost up to $150 million. HPQ's model requires a fraction of that—making it economically and environmentally superior.Global Relevance: Amid new tariffs and reshoring trends, HPQ offers a local, low-emission alternative to imported materials from China and Europe.HPQ Silicon has reached the most significant milestone in its history: independent analysis has confirmed its proprietary Fumed Silica Reactor (FSR) produced commercial-grade material. This breakthrough disrupts a global industry still reliant on a toxic, energy-intensive process that hasn't meaningfully changed since 1944.Fumed silica is essential in everyday products like cosmetics, toothpaste, batteries, and paints. Traditional production requires converting quartz into silicon metal, processing it with corrosive chemicals, and incinerating it with hydrogen gas. HPQ's process skips all that—producing fumed silica in a single step from raw quartz, with lower emissions, lower costs, and no hazardous byproducts.The validation? It comes from a third-party microscopy analysis (conducted at one of Montreal's top research universities), which confirmed that HPQ's pilot-scale product matches the morphology and structure of established, high-purity industry standards.This milestone reinforces HPQ's previously signed Letter of Intent with Evonik Industries, a $10 billion German chemical company that invented fumed silica and dominates the global market. With the technology now proven at a 20x lab scale, the door opens to further technical evaluations—and eventual commercial engagement.“We've replicated lab-scale results at 20x scale and confirmed it through side-by-side imaging. This is the single biggest milestone in HPQ's history.” — Bernard Tourillon, CEOWith this third-party validation in hand, HPQ is moving quickly to capitalize. Conversations with Evonik are already underway to determine whether this latest material batch will be shipped for qualification. Other major fumed silica producers—previously awaiting test results—have resumed discussions. Internally, HPQ continues optimizing the grade and consistency of its product through additional test cycles. With its pilot plant operating smoothly and yielding better-than-expected output, HPQ is now mapping the path to commercial production—built on scalable, industry-standard components. The momentum is real, and the company is positioning itself as a clean-tech leader in a global market ready for disruption.BOLD DISRUPTION OF AN 80-YEAR-OLD INDUSTRYSTRATEGIC INTEREST FROM A GLOBAL LEADERWHAT'S NEXT

The discourse presented herein elucidates the pivotal role of water treatment in the realm of detailing, emphasizing a fundamental truth: the impossibility of water softening without the incorporation of salt. Throughout our conversation, we critically examine the myriad types of purported "salt-free" softeners, which, upon closer scrutiny, reveal themselves to be merely template-assisted crystallization systems, rather than genuine softeners. Our esteemed guest, Cydian Kauffman from Pure Water Northwest, sheds light on the intricacies of water testing and the necessity of understanding one's water composition for effective detailing. We delve into the implications of water hardness on both the efficacy of detailing products and the long-term aesthetics of vehicle surfaces, thereby underscoring the necessity for professionals in the industry to be acutely aware of their water quality. This episode constitutes a clarion call to detailers to prioritize water treatment in their operational protocols, ensuring optimal results in their detailing endeavors.Takeaways: The efficacy of water softeners is contingent upon their salt content, which is essential for proper function. Salt-free softeners are often misrepresented; they utilize template-assisted crystallization to mitigate hardness, not soften water. Testing water quality is imperative before selecting a treatment system; assumptions can lead to ineffective solutions. Both hardness and mineral composition in water can lead to unsightly spots on surfaces and require tailored cleaning methods for removal. Detailers should consider using a combination of water softeners and deionized systems to optimize their washing efficiency and minimize spotting. Understanding the chemical composition of water is crucial for achieving desired detailing results, particularly in challenging environments.

Today, we're going to talk about the top foods for hair growth. Number 4 is the most important!1. Bamboo shoots are high in trace minerals, potassium, and silica—essential for building hair protein. Silica makes hair strong and elastic and also prevents breakage and brittleness. Silica supports skin, joint, and bone health as well!2. Wild-caught salmon is an excellent source of protein and is loaded with nutrition. It's also one of the best sources of omega-3 fatty acids. Wild-caught salmon is a potent source of vitamin D3, which can improve nearly every problem with hair loss. Vitamin D controls the hair follicle and can activate dormant hair follicle stem cells.3. Egg yolks are loaded with biotin, vital for keratin production. They also contain all of the fat-soluble nutrients that are essential for hair growth and hair health. Egg yolks are a rich source of cholesterol, a precursor for the hormones necessary for hair growth. Cholesterol increases hair shine and luster and strengthens the hair shaft. Egg yolks contain vitamin D and sulfur, which supports a healthy scalp.4. Grass-fed liver contains concentrated amounts of almost every nutrient. It's high in iron, vital for oxygen transport to the scalp. One of the most common causes of hair shedding is iron deficiency. An iron deficiency can be caused by low iron or a copper deficiency. Copper is vital for the proper function of iron, and beef liver is loaded with it! It also contains zinc, which is essential in the appropriate ratio to copper. Zinc is necessary in the formation of hair and protein synthesis. Beef liver also contains folate and vitamin B12, which can reduce graying. The nutrients in beef liver are bioavailable, so your body can easily absorb them. Beef liver contains the active, bioavailable form of vitamin A and biotin. It's best to get biotin from a food source rather than a supplement.

Fracture risk reduction should be the primary focus in treating osteoporosis. Hormone replacement therapy can effectively maintain and improve bone density in postmenopausal women. Proper nutrition, digestion, and inflammation management are crucial for bone health. MK4, a form of vitamin K2, has been shown to improve bone density and reduce fractures, while MK7 has not. While magnesium is important for overall health, there is limited evidence to support its role in reducing fractures. Exercise, including resistance training and functional exercises, can help improve bone health and reduce fracture risk.  

“Your test kit is your tool, and you are the master of that tool. “- Trace Blackmore  In this insightful episode of Scaling Up! H2O Podcast, host Trace Blackmore delves into the critical topic of understanding and optimizing water treatment tests. This episode is designed to equip water treatment professionals with practical knowledge to enhance their test-taking techniques and interpretation skills.  The Concept of Pinks and Blues   Trace shares the origins of the term “pinks and blues,” coined by his father, and explains its significance in water testing. He stresses the importance of understanding that tests are tools to confirm or disprove hypotheses about system conditions, not tasks that generate revenue. This foundational mindset shift sets the stage for improving both the efficiency and effectiveness of test execution.  Strategic Testing Approaches  Trace provides a comprehensive breakdown of running tests in the most efficient order, starting with the longest tests and multitasking with shorter ones while waiting. This strategic approach helps water professionals maximize time on-site. He also discusses the value of running tests based on hypothesis-driven objectives, such as walking through the site and engaging with clients before taking samples.  Categorizing and Interpreting Your Tests  Listeners will gain insight into organizing test types into meaningful categories:   Base water  Concentrated water  Product contributions  System signs  Trace illustrates how to establish true concentration levels and interpret results to identify potential issues like scaling, precipitation, and system corrosion. The importance of using non-scaling ions, like silica, for accurate concentration analysis is also explained.  Analyzing Interpretative Skills Trace walks through examples that highlight how to use test results for informed decision-making, whether it's confirming system status or taking corrective action. He advises on how to integrate polymer tests and other contributing product measurements into your routine for a fuller picture of system health. This deep dive into interpretation emphasizes a detective-like approach to problem-solving in water treatment.  Final Thoughts and Essential Tips  The episode concludes with Trace's encouragement to prioritize understanding your test procedures and knowing the interferences that can affect results. He underscores the importance of planning tests efficiently and being prepared with all necessary tools before visiting client sites. By mastering these practices, listeners can transform their testing routine into a powerful tool for maintaining system integrity and customer relationships.

As you stand in front of it, you may see the handholes and manholes opened. The room may be much quieter than normal because the burners and air blowers aren't running. It may be a firetube or water tube boiler. The inspection will be different between the two, with several commonalities as well. Before you start your inspection, what should you do? Have you spoken to the operators in the area? Have you followed proper safety protocols for confined space entry, lockout/tagout, etc.? Do you feel safe entering the boiler? Do you know the history of the boiler before going in? Does this history of water treatment and boiler performance allow you to predict what you will see inside the boiler? How will you document what you find? How will you collect any samples, if necessary? How dirty will you get? Do you know the equipment you will see inside the boiler, such as steam-water separators, baffle plates, downcomers, feedwater piping, etc.? What do you expect the water line to look like? Where will oxygen pitting or hard water scaling first show up in the boiler if there was a problem? Will you be inspecting the deaerator as well? How long will it take you to get the boiler inspection report to your client? Doing a proper boiler inspection takes time, experience, knowledge, attention to detail, and often agility.   Events for Water Professionals  Check out our Scaling UP!
