Podcasts about supplementation

Dr. Shivani Gupta returns to the podcast to share what she has learned since writing her new Hay House book, The Inflammation Code. In this conversation we explore why inflammation is rising so dramatically in modern life and how that plays into fertility, hormone balance, and overall vitality. Dr. Shivani breaks down the three doshas in Ayurveda, which she calls Elemental Design, and explains how understanding your own makeup of air, fire, and earth can help you choose the foods, rhythms, and rituals that actually nourish your body. We also talk about Mental Inflammation, circadian living, the healing power of nature, and why modern life keeps so many women stuck in survival mode. Dr. Shivani shares the science behind turmeric, why absorption matters, and when to use it and when to pause it during IVF and transfer windows. This is a grounded, practical conversation about returning to ancient wisdom in a way that feels doable in real life.   Key Takeaways: Inflammation is rising because of environmental toxins, processed foods, chronic stress, and constant mental stimulation. The body is living in survival mode rather than thriving. Ayurveda teaches that each of us has a unique Elemental Design made of air, fire, and earth. Knowing your primary and secondary doshas helps you choose foods, rhythms, and rituals that bring you back into balance. Mental Inflammation is a real physiological state created by constant phone use, email, and sympathetic activation. It feeds physical inflammation, and physical inflammation feeds it back. Living in rhythm with nature's circadian clock is one of the most powerful and free tools we have. Walking outside, eating seasonally, and sleeping from 10 to 2 supports lymphatic clearance and reduces inflammation. Preparing the body for conception through gentle detoxification, nourishment, and tissue health is the same work that supports vibrancy through perimenopause. A vibrant body is a fertile body. Turmeric is one of the most powerful natural anti-inflammatories we have, but absorption matters. Black pepper and healthy fats increase bioavailability significantly. Turmeric can support fertility conditions linked to inflammation such as endometriosis, PCOS, and recurrent implantation challenges, but it should be paused during IVF cycles and transfer windows because it thins the blood and can thin the uterine lining. Supplementation should be phased with the guidance of a practitioner. Every season of the body calls for a different protocol. About the guest: Dr. Shivani Gupta is an Ayurvedic practitioner, turmeric researcher, and speaker who blends classical Ayurveda with functional medicine to help women calm inflammation, balance hormones, and restore energy. With a Master's in Ayurvedic Sciences and a PhD focused on turmeric, she translates ancient wisdom into simple daily rituals, including Elemental Design personalization, Mental Inflammation resets, gut and estrobolome support, and spice-based micro-habits. Her new book, The Inflammation Code (Hay House, February 2026), is a practical, non-diet system for cooling chronic inflammation to improve brain fog, bloat, pain, sleep, and mood. Dr. Shivani is the host of the Fusionary Health Podcast and creator of the Emmy-nominated TV show Vibrant Health with Dr. Shivani Gupta.

Lisa examines a peer-reviewed study that tracked liver consumption and vitamin A status in young children from an impoverished South African community — and what the findings reveal about food as a nutrient delivery system. Lisa unpacks a striking paradox at the heart of the research: the poorest households consumed the most liver not for health reasons, but out of economic necessity and were consequently the most protected against vitamin A deficiency. Whether through whole food sources or desiccated liver capsules, Lisa makes the case that eating liver for vitamin A remains one of the most efficient and nutrient-dense strategies available for supporting fertility and reproductive health.

We basked in some amazing news before this great episode! The main topic was a breakdown of one of the most important elements of performance and health: blood volume. Studies show that blood volume can seem to act as a synonym for fitness, with one finding that 6 weeks of training gains can be reversed with a phlebotomy that returns blood volume to baseline levels. Positive adaptations can happen in a few days, and it clearly matters for performance. If any other intervention worked like that, you'd assume everyone would be talking about it all the time. But blood volume is not discussed often! We pull back the curtain on the science.We also talked about a new review article on exogenous lactate supplementation. It might be a brave new world in the next 5 years, but right now there are more questions than answers. We speculate!And this one was full of cool topics! Other topics: the shockingly good news Megan has received in recent heart tests, our disdain for the Enhanced Games, recent age group doping news, the Satisfy Circle Pit, the true GOAT of endurance, running v. biking, uphill treadmill workouts, and lots more.Yes, David actually hit himself for a joke on this episode.

Have you ever walked out of a doctor's office feeling dismissed — told that your labs were 'normal' while youknew in your body that something was profoundly wrong? You are not alone, and this episode may be the validation and the roadmap you have been searching for.Dana Irvine sits down with Elizabeth Gaines, Director of Education at Functional Diagnostic Nutrition® (FDN), for a deeply resonant conversation about what it truly means toinvestigate — not just manage — your health. Elizabeth shares her own remarkable transformation from burnout and chronic fatigue (fuelled by a decade of trauma-recovery work) to becoming one of the leading educators in the functional diagnostic space.Together, Dana and Elizabeth unpack the philosophy and practice behind FDN: why functional lab testingreveals what standard blood work misses, how the DRESS protocol (Diet, Rest,Exercise, Stress Reduction, and Supplementation) creates a sustainable foundation for healing, and why metabolic typing is the missing key for women who have tried every diet and still feel stuck.This episode is equal parts science, story, and empowerment — a master class in understanding why your body behaves the way it does, and what you can do about it right now.Elizabeth Gaines, MFA, MA, FDN-P is the Director of Education at Functional Diagnostic Nutrition® (FDN) — one of the world's most respected certification programs in functional health — where she leads curriculum design, live practitioner training, and mentor development.Her path to functional health began not in a laboratory, but in survival. For more than a decade Elizabeth ,served in nonprofit trauma recovery, supporting survivors of domestic minor sextrafficking. The relentless weight of that work eventually took a toll: compassion fatigue spiraled into chronic fatigue, depression, digestive dysfunction, and a profound sense of invisibility in her own body. Doctors told her it was "all in her head." She knew better.Through FDN, Elizabeth discovered how to identify hidden healing opportunities through functional lab testing that conventional medicine had missed — and she reclaimed her energy, joy, clarity, and purpose. Today she trains the trainers and guides clients back to their naturally vibrant state through the same evidence-informed, root-cause lens.Elizabeth operates her own functional wellness practice, Break Thru Burnout, specializing in chronic stress, burnout recovery, and the physiological impact of emotional depletion.

Send us Fan MailHow omega-3 fats in human health, including dietary intake needs, supplements, & omega fat testing.TOPICS DISCUSSED:ω-3 chemistry: EPA and DHA differ from plant ALA in chain length and double-bond count, making them structurally and biologically distinct — and largely irreplaceable by ALA conversion.ALA-to-EPA/DHA conversion: A small percentage of dietary ALA converts to EPA, and conversion to DHA is even lower; vegans rely on this inefficient pathway for all long-chain omega-3s.Cardiovascular mechanisms: ω-3s lower triglycerides, reduce platelet stickiness, improve endothelial function, and slow resting heart rate, reducing cardiovascular risk.ω-3 Index: Defined as red blood cell EPA+DHA as a percent of total fatty acids; 8–12% is the target range, while most Americans sit around 4–5%.Brain & dementia risk: Higher DHA blood levels are associated with significantly lower risk of dementia and Alzheimer's in large cohorts including the UK Biobank and Framingham.Linoleic acid nuance: Higher blood levels of dietary linoleic acid (omega-6) associate with lower dementia and cardiovascular risk; downstream omega-6 metabolites — not linoleic acid itself — associate with adverse outcomes.Supplementation practicalities: Most people need 1–2 g/day of EPA+DHA to reach an ω-3 Index >8%; oxidation concerns with fish oil supplements may be overstated.ABOUT THE GUEST: Bill Harris, PhD is founder of both OmegaQuant Laboratory and the Fatty Acid Research Institute (Sioux Falls, SD), where his work centers on blood fatty acid biomarkers as predictors of disease risk in large population cohort studies.KNOW YOURSELF:OmegaQuant: At-home blood testing to see fatty acid profiles, including omega-3 fatty acids.

CoQ10 and Stroke Recovery: What the Science Actually Shows Your brain is the most energy-hungry organ in your body. It accounts for roughly 2% of your body weight but consumes about 20% of all the energy you produce. One of the key molecules driving that energy, CoQ10, quietly declines from your 30s onwards. For stroke survivors navigating fatigue, cognitive changes, and the long arc of recovery, that raises an obvious question: could supplementing with CoQ10 actually help? This mini-episode examines the peer-reviewed evidence — not marketing copy, not supplement industry claims, but what clinical research actually shows. What Is CoQ10 and Why Does It Matter After a Stroke? Coenzyme Q10, also known as CoQ10, or ubiquinol in its active form, is a molecule your body produces naturally. It lives primarily in the mitochondria, the energy-producing structures inside your cells, where it plays two roles: generating ATP (the cellular energy currency everything in your biology runs on) and acting as a powerful antioxidant that neutralises free radicals. When a stroke occurs, whether ischemic or hemorrhagic, the brain undergoes what is called ischemia-reperfusion injury. Blood flow is cut off, then restored. That restoration triggers inflammation and a surge of oxidative stress. Mitochondria in neurons start failing. Cells die not just from the original event but from the metabolic fallout that follows. CoQ10 goes directly to the site of that problem. If levels can be sustained or supplemented adequately, the theory is that it could reduce the secondary damage unfolding in the hours, days, and weeks after stroke. What Does the Clinical Research Actually Show? A landmark 2025 review published in the journal Nutrients analysed 12 animal studies and 8 human randomised controlled trials examining CoQ10’s effects on the brain. The findings are genuinely mixed, which is exactly what honest science looks like. In animal models, the evidence is consistent and compelling. Across Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and epilepsy models, CoQ10 supplementation produced meaningful improvements in cognitive function via reduced oxidative stress, decreased neuroinflammation, increased ATP production in the hippocampus, and reductions in amyloid plaque burden. In humans, the picture is more complex. Of the 8 human RCTs reviewed, 4 showed evidence of benefit in specific conditions. In Progressive Supranuclear Palsy, frontal lobe cognitive function improved significantly. In Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, 150mg daily for 8 to 12 weeks improved working memory and reduced oxidative stress markers. In one Parkinson’s trial combining CoQ10 with creatine, cognitive improvements were measured at 12 and 18 months. However, trials in Alzheimer’s disease and Mild Cognitive Impairment showed no significant cognitive benefit, even at high doses. There is also an unresolved question: whether supplemental CoQ10 can cross the blood-brain barrier in meaningful quantities. Indirect pathways improved cerebral blood flow, reduced systemic inflammation, and may account for observed effects rather than direct brain-level action. What This Means for Stroke Survivors The honest assessment: the research supports a biologically plausible mechanism. CoQ10 is depleted by the conditions that cause and follow stroke. Supplementation shows real benefit in some neurological conditions. Animal evidence is consistently positive. But large-scale human RCTs specifically in stroke populations are still limited. Two practical points worth raising with your treating team before starting CoQ10: Form matters. Ubiquinol (the reduced form) has significantly higher bioavailability than standard ubiquinone, particularly important for older adults whose absorption is lower. Drug interactions. CoQ10 can reduce the anticoagulant effect of warfarin, a medication many stroke survivors take. It may also amplify blood-pressure-lowering effects of antihypertensive medications. Take the research, not the marketing, to your neurologist or GP. Ask whether it is appropriate, given your specific stroke type and current medications, what dose the evidence supports, and how long a reasonable trial period looks like.

This episode features Dr. Marie-Claire Arrieta PhD from the University of Calgary (Canada), speaking about development of the early life gut microbiome, both in preterm and non-preterm infants. Across the field, it has been established that the early days and months of an infant's life are very determinant of immune system development as well as chronic disease later in life. In this period, environmental cues are important, with some of these cues coming from the gut microbiome – both bacteria and fungi. Preterm infants show a very different gut microbiome than non-preterm infants. Ample evidence shows probiotics given to preterm infants can bring clinical benefits such as a reduced risk of necrotizing enterocolitis, but this is separate from investigations into the infants' gut microbiomes. Dr. Arrieta's work has shown that probiotics can guide the gut ecosystem of preterm infants toward approximating the non-preterm gut microbiome. One gap in the research is to know more about the effects of specific strains; their work found that although bifidobacteria were more effective at colonizing in the gut, lactobacilli drove some aspects of microbiota maturation. Dr. Arrieta speculates that the case for probiotic use for preterm infants will become stronger as trials increasingly focus on health outcomes not just during the neonatal intensive care unit stay, but also later in life. Overall in healthy infants, different patterns of gut microbiome and immune development can lead to the appearance of diseases later in life. The latest insight is that disease is linked not to specific microbes or metabolites, but to the pace of gut microbiome development. Misalignment of gut microbiome development (too early or too late) with stages of immune development is associated with later emergence of allergic disease. Several factors such as C-section birth and antibiotics may contribute to this misalignment, but breastfeeding seems to mitigate it. Dr. Arrieta has an ongoing longitudinal study on the early life microbiota and disease associations in preterm and non-preterm infants that is likely to reveal more details.

Why bother with organ meat when you can just have a ribeye? After all, steak is already one of the most nutrient-dense foods on the planet. It's a fair question, and one I get all the time.  The ancestral health world has generally answered it with "because our ancestors did" or "because predators eat the organs first," and while those things are true, they don't actually tell you what you need to know. The real question is how much more nutritious is an organ than a steak. Is it 10% more? Twice as much? Because if the gap is small, eat the steak and move on. But if it's enormous, that changes things. In this episode, I share the results of a lab analysis that finally answers the question with actual data, nutrient by nutrient. Our freeze-drying partner sent samples of freeze-dried beef organs alongside grass-fed and grain-finished ribeye to the Center for Human Nutrition Studies at Utah State University, where Dr. Stephan van Vliet led the project. They accounted for water content across all samples so the comparison would be fair.  And the results weren't subtle. For example, compared to ribeye, 100 grams of freeze-dried beef liver had… 73 times more B12 42 times more preformed Vitamin A 430 times more folate 280 times more Vitamin D 55 times more copper 7 times more choline.  Perhaps what was most interesting, though, is that the study revealed that no single organ does it all.  Liver wins on fat-soluble vitamins and B vitamins.  Heart dominates in CoQ10.  Kidney leads with folate and choline.  Spleen owns iron by a wide margin.  Together, they cover virtually every essential nutrient your body needs.  Ribeye is a great food and by far my favorite cut, but it's not complete food. The animal as a whole is. In the episode, I also go into why eggs can help narrow the nutritional gap but can't fully close it, why a traditional Sami reindeer herder in Norway told me they feed the organs to the dogs, and why declining soil fertility makes concentrated nutrient sources like organs even more important than they were a generation ago.

If you've ever stood in a supplement aisle feeling equal parts hopeful and overwhelmed — or found yourself wondering why you're still exhausted despite taking all the "right" things — this episode is for you. In this episode of Aligned Vitality, certified Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner and Christian Life Coach Tanya Engesether brings a grounded, grace-filled perspective to one of the most common questions in the midlife wellness space: Do supplements actually work? The answer is nuanced — and it matters. Because supplements can absolutely be helpful. But they are often misunderstood, misused, and expected to do something they were never designed to do. Through the lens of the FDN DRESS protocol and a deeply practical faith framework, Tanya unpacks where supplements fit, where they don't, and what actually has to come first. If you've been chasing the next product hoping it will finally make you feel like yourself again, this conversation will help you think more clearly — and more wisely — about what your body and your soul may actually need. In This Episode You'll Learn: What supplements actually do in the body from a functional health perspective The FDN DRESS protocol — and why Supplementation comes last Why supplements can be helpful tools but are not the foundation of healing The difference between support and rescue — and why it matters so much Why this conversation is especially important for women in perimenopause and midlife Common supplements that may support stress, sleep, inflammation, and hormone health in midlife (magnesium, omega-3s, Vitamin D, minerals, digestive support) The spiritual parallel between reaching for quick physical fixes and reaching for substitutes instead of God Practical questions to help you approach supplements — and your health — more wisely Scripture Referenced John 15:5 (NIV) — "I am the vine; you are the branches… apart from me you can do nothing." Colossians 2:8 (NIV) — "See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy…" Key Takeaway Supplements can be wise, helpful tools. But they work best when they are supporting a body that is already being cared for at the foundational level — nourishment, rest, movement, and stress regulation first. And no supplement can replace what truly sustains you: physically or spiritually.   I hope this episode blesses you! Xoxo, Tanya P.S. Book a FREE functional health discovery call HERE.

Frailty isn't just something that happens “later”; it's a gradual loss of resilience that can begin much earlier than most people think. Katy Bowman and Dr. Jeannette Loram unpack what frailty and pre-frailty mean biologically. They explore the five key hallmarks used to identify frailty, including walking speed and grip strength, and how a large proportion of people in their 30s and 40s already fall on the spectrum of pre-frailty.The conversation also explores the muscle–gut connection, explaining how frailty is influenced by exercise, diet, and the health of your microbiome. Katy and Jeannette also discuss the potential for rapid-onset frailty linked to the use of GLP-1 medications.Most importantly, frailty can be reversed and this episode focuses on what you can do.

You run the labs and a nutrient comes back low. What's your first move?For many practitioners, the reflex is simple: replace it. But we're living in the most over-supplemented era in history. People are taking magnesium for sleep, B12 for energy, iron for fatigue, adaptogens for stress, creatine for cognition without asking the most important question.Why is it low in the first place?That question is the difference between protocol prescribing and real clinical thinking. A deficiency isn't a diagnosis but a clue. Until we understand the mechanism behind that clue, we're reacting and not practicing true healthcare.What's Inside This Episode?• Low nutrients: why they're a clue, not a diagnosis• Six hidden drivers: the real causes of many deficiencies• Absorption problems: why adding more often fails• Activation issues: when nutrients can't convert to active forms• Cellular transport: the overlooked signaling problem• Increased demand: how stress, toxins, and inflammation drain nutrients• Functional deficiency: when labs look normal but cells aren't• Supplement decisions: when they help and when they miss the root causeResources and Links:Download the full transcript hereDownload our FREE Smart Supplementation MatrixJoin the Next-Level Health Practitioner Facebook group here for free resources and community support.Visit INEMethod.com for advanced health practitioner training and tools to elevate your clinical skills and grow your practice by getting life-changing resultsCheck out other podcast episodes here

Episode 3356: Dr. Neal breaks down what current research actually says about supplements for ADHD, cutting through the hype around popular options like L-theanine and ginseng. He highlights which nutrients may offer modest benefits, especially omega-3s, magnesium, and ashwagandha, while emphasizing that foundational habits like nutrition, sleep, and exercise still matter most. It's a practical, evidence-based look at what's worth considering and what's likely a waste of money. Quotes to ponder: "Fish oil supplements may help improve concentration for those that have low levels of omega-3 fats in their diets in the first place." "As far as any other supplements being advertised, including the expensive ones, we really don't know at this time whether they may be helpful or, possibly, even harmful." "L-theanine is a type of amino acid. Some studies have shown that it may help reduce anxiety and stress symptoms but doesn't seem to help those with ADHD, specifically."

Sick of being told your labs are “normal” when you KNOW something's off?  In today's episode, I'm joined by functional medicine expert Dr. Robin Berzin to talk about what it really means to take control of your health in midlife.  Dr. Berzin shares the early warning signs to watch for and how to better interpret your health data so you can catch imbalances before they become bigger issues.  You'll learn how to advocate for yourself, understand key lab markers, and explore why supportive options like supplementation and HRT could be game-changers for you.  We're reframing health as an ongoing, flexible practice—not a rigid destination—helping you release perfection and stay curious about what your body needs.  Tune in here to feel empowered and take your health into your own hands with confidence!  Dr. Robin Berzin  Dr. Robin Berzin the founder and CEO of Parsley Health, America's leading holistic medical practice designed to help women overcome chronic conditions. As a pioneer in functional medicine, she founded Parsley to address the rise of chronic disease in America through personalized holistic medicine. She stresses the importance of not only medications and treatments, but more so why food, lifestyle, and proactive diagnostics are just as essential– if not more. Since founding Parsley in 2016, Dr. Berzin has seen 80% of patients improve or resolve their chronic conditions within their first year of care, showing the life-changing value of making modern holistic medicine accessible to everyone. IN THIS EPISODE How to navigate feeling dismissed by your doctor  Why “normal” doesn't always mean normal  The massive benefits of a functional medicine approach Proactively testing hormone levels earlier than you may think Tracking your metrics to better understand your body  Managing stress in your body and mind during midlife  How to realistically fit healthy habits into your busy routine Supplementation to support your body through midlife transitions  Hormone Replacement therapy and GLP-1 use in perimenopause & beyond  QUOTES “A lot of times, the labs may technically fall within the normal range, not the optimal range– normal range being based on an average of Americans today, and 60% of Americans have at least one chronic condition, 40% have two. So our averages have drifted over time to kind of reflect a sick population.” “Whether it's aging parents or kids growing up, or something happening career-wise… all of that puts pressure on a physical system that's in dynamic change hormonally, and I think we have to recognize that.” “Proactive, preventive medicine is where we're going. Proactive testing is required to practice that type of personalized preventive care, and I believe that HRT is going to become the default rather than the exception.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Order my new book: The Perimenopause Revolution https://peri-revolution.com/ Robin's Website Robin on Instagram Parsley Health Website RELATED EPISODES #661: When ‘Normal' Isn't Normal: How to Be Heard (and Taken Seriously) at the Doctor's Office #650: Unlock Your Health: The Ultimate Biomarker & Lab Blueprint to Thrive in Midlife and Beyond #541: Why Functional Labs Are a Game Changer for Your Health with Dr. Kela Smith #527: The Science Of Energy Production and Recovery & How To Balance Out Cortisol and Melatonin with Kristen Holmes

You've been told that supplements just make “expensive urine,” and if you're taking the wrong forms, that criticism is completely valid. In this episode, I'm breaking down the science of bioavailability and exposing why the supplement industry has been prioritizing cost and shelf stability over what actually works in your body.

In this episode, Detective Ev sits down with Alisa, a Doctor of Pharmacy with over 25 years of experience who made the courageous leap from conventional medicine into the world of functional health. After years of dispensing medications to manage symptoms, Alisa began to question the system—and her role in it. What she discovered changed everything. Alisa opens up about her personal and professional journey, including the stress, burnout, and gut health crisis that led to an emergency room visit in 2023. That wake-up call forced her to prioritize her own health and ultimately guided her toward becoming a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition® (FDN) Practitioner. Today, she's on a mission to help others understand how deeply lifestyle choices impact the body—and how true healing happens when we address root causes, not just diagnoses. This conversation explores the powerful shift from a pharmaceutical mindset to a functional, lifestyle-based approach, emphasizing how everything in the body is connected. Alisa breaks down why focusing on DRESS (Diet, Rest, Exercise, Stress Reduction, and Supplementation) is foundational for long-term health and why having real data about how your body is functioning can be truly life-changing.     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!

What does it really take to get healthier with age? In this deeply personal solo episode, mindbodygreen co-founder and co-CEO Jason Wachob shares his N-of-1 longevity experiment—and all the data behind it. At 51 years old, Jason's biological age clocks in at 37.9, with elite cardiovascular and recovery metrics to match: a VO₂ max of 52, resting heart rate as low as 35, and record-high HRV. This isn't about extreme biohacking or million-dollar longevity protocols. Jason breaks down the exact lifestyle choices, training approach, and precision nutrition strategies that helped him reverse key aging markers—while balancing life as a CEO, husband, and father of two. He also opens up about the emotional weight of outliving multiple generations of men in his family—and why, for him, longevity is ultimately about presence, strength, and showing up fully for the people he loves. Whether you're curious about VO₂ max training, heart rate variability, diet personalization, or how to build sustainable habits without burning out, this episode offers a rare, data-backed look at what's possible with consistency and intention.

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend!   I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks…   Spencer: Hello Dr. Cabral, I've followed you for some time, and have now read both of your books. It seems overall, you tend to recommend less animal foods in the diet. Not that you have anything against them per se, but its likely based on some of the research I'm sure youve looked at on longetvity as well as environmental and moral reasons. Intsead of consuming a lot of animals, you eat a lot of plants, and supplement your way to nutrients. This seems odd to me, although I understand the reasoining. I venture to say, there are so many things in animal foods we dont even know of yet, just like at one time we didnt know about b vitamins, or prebiotics in breast milk etc. It just seems like a modern of way making this work, avoiding the animal food and band aiding it with supplements. I get that the soil is deplted etc, but still. Can you clarify here. I know that wasn't Youve helped another person and your struggle wasnt for nothing.                                                Ashley: Hi Dr. Cabral - Great meeting you at RHS this year and thanks for all of your incredible work! My question is: do you have a lab/test you recommend for mold and mycotoxin testing outside of EquiLife? I am an IHP L2 based in Seattle, WA and  cannot obtain EquiLife tests in WA state still. In the past 18 months I have completed the CBO protocol twice to rid myself of SIBO, E. Coli and H. Pylori (including heal + seal post CBO) and have leveraged your protocols to rebalance my hormones after a partial thyroidectomy, however I still have persistent inflammation, puffiness in my face, post nasal drip and my H Pylori recently returned for the third time. I've also had new onset of hives that turn into pustules that antihistamines do not address. We had severe water damage in our home in 2022 (in our bedroom and attached bathroom) and I am wondering if mold or environmental issues are my true root cause given the work I've already done. I travel extensively overseas for work (2-3 weeks at a time) and symptoms are always better when I am away from my home. I am planning to have our house tested for mold but want to test my body too if you believe it is warranted. Any advice is appreciated as a next step - THANK YOU!                                                                                                                          Marissa: Hi Dr. Cabral!! I did your 14 day detox and loved it! Question, is Kachava protein brand clean?                                 Anonymous: Hi Dr. C  I did the SMMT in June,  cbo protocol, addressed low am cortisol and adrenal issues , did the mold prot.,  I do have lyme ebv, both no symptoms in a while.  Off HRT, numbers were very high,  doing estrogen sup and prog. supp.  dhea low ad u an supplementing with that.   T 4 optimal but T3 2.9 and not addressed on consult. Tsh 2.6 I've been doing the foundational protocol for a year now.  my chiro keeps saying to check my thyroid, he feels it.   I started daily thyroid support and i am one month in.   Im noticing so much skin sagging in the last year (using One Skin) and also my vision keeps getting worse quickly.  I also do the vision support   i went from looking like i was in my 40's when i was 50s  to looking sagging and old in my early 60s.  i feel so much better than i did but what's happening?  .  I use collagen, I eat sufficient protein, i train , all the boxes checked.  The only thing i did not do was HMProtocol   Mercury and Aluminum elevated  .057 and 1.04 but I wanted to take the mercury filling out before doing protocol.   i have another Stress mood metab.test also that im waiting on doing . Should i do it sooner. Everything else was not of that concern.  Any ideas or supplement suggestions?? my sleep has been much better as well.  it's very depressing when you feel you are addressing what you can address.  Thank you for all your guidance and support.      Darren: Good day Dr. Cabral. Hope all is well with you and family. Given your experience with TCM, what are your thoughts on the use of Polyrhachis Ant powder, He Shou Wu/Fo-Ti, Pine Pollen, Sichisandra extract and Pycnogenol (pine bark extract)? Of course it'd be too lengthy to go in detail on the weekend show but maybe consider a Friday review?

View the Show Notes Page for This Episode Become a Member to Receive Exclusive Content Sign Up to Receive Peter's Weekly Newsletter Rhonda Patrick is a scientist, health educator, and host of the FoundMyFitness podcast whose work explores the intersection of nutrition, aging, and disease prevention. In this episode, Rhonda joins Peter for part two of his deep dive on protein, continuing last week's discussion with David Allison and expanding the conversation to include creatine supplementation and sauna use. She discusses why the current RDA for protein is insufficient, how much more is needed to maintain muscle mass and prevent frailty, how activity level and aging influence protein requirements through mechanisms such as anabolic resistance, and how to determine optimal protein intake. The conversation also covers creatine's proven effects on strength, endurance, and performance; its overlooked benefits for cognition and brain health; and the optimal dosing for different populations. Rhonda closes with the science behind sauna use, including its cardiovascular and cognitive benefits, the role of heat shock proteins, and practical guidance on temperature and duration. We discuss: Why the current protein RDA is too low, and why maintaining sufficient amino acid intake is vital for muscle preservation and health [3:30]; The case for raising the protein RDA by at least 50% [9:45]; Anabolic resistance: why inactivity—more than aging—blunts the body's response to protein, and how resistance training restores it [14:00]; How sarcopenia develops, the profound effect of frailty on quality of life, and why it's crucial to build and maintain muscle early [20:00]; Finding the optimal protein dose [25:00]; Why aiming higher is smarter: the case for targeting 2g of protein per kg of body weight in the real world [32:15]; Protein needs for pregnant women and growing adolescents [37:30]; Why higher protein intake is crucial when trying to lose fat while preserving or gaining muscle [39:45]; GLP-1 drugs: protein needs, muscle preservation, dosing strategies, evidence of broader health impacts, and more [43:45]; How overweight individuals should calculate protein needs based on target body weight [50:45]; Unpacking a misunderstood topic: the relationship between protein intake, mTOR activation, and longevity [52:00]; Why it's unclear whether rapamycin is geroprotective in humans, and how misinterpreted animal data have fueled misconceptions about protein or mTOR activation being harmful [1:00:45]; The unmatched longevity benefits of exercise, its synergy with higher protein intake, and Peter's recommended protein intake [1:06:15]; How Rhonda became fascinated with creatine—a well-studied, safe, and effective supplement for improving exercise performance [1:09:00]; Creatine for the brain: how higher doses may enhance cognition under stress and support resilience against aging and disease [1:16:30]; Optimal creatine use: dosing for adults and teens, safe product selection, debunking kidney myths, and more [1:25:45]; Sauna: how deliberate heat exposure mimics exercise, boosts cardiovascular and brain health, and shows promise for improving mood and mental resilience [1:32:15]; The benefits of sauna for reducing risk of dementia, and why hotter may not be better [1:41:15]; The FoundMyFitness podcast [1:45:30]; and More.

My guest is Konstantina Stankovic, MD, PhD, Professor and Chair of Otolaryngology at Stanford School of Medicine. She explains how hearing works and why hearing loss—affecting over 1.5 billion people—impacts people of all ages. We discuss how hearing loss impairs focus and increases the risk of cognitive decline, as well as the role of menopause and other biological milestones in hearing health. We share science-backed protocols to protect your hearing and highlight risks to avoid. And we discuss tinnitus—its causes and treatment options.
