Do you feel exhausted but can't seem to wind down? That wired-but-tired feeling so many women experience in midlife has a name, and a cause most doctors never address. In this episode of The Art of Living Well Podcast®, Marnie and Stephanie are joined by Dr. Scott Sherr, a board-certified internal medicine physician and expert in health optimization, to explore the connection between chronic stress, hormone changes, and mitochondrial dysfunction. Dr. Scott introduces the concept of the "sympathetic spiral of doom" — the cycle of stress, poor sleep, and cellular energy breakdown that keeps so many women stuck, and shares practical, science-backed ways to break it. The conversation covers methylene blue (what it is, how it works, and who should use it), GABA and nervous system support, and hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Dr. Scott also explains why only 6% of US adults have optimally functioning mitochondria, and what the other 94% can do about it. Key Takeaways: Chronic stress and hormone fluctuations directly impair mitochondrial function Estrogen is a critical mitochondrial optimizer, losing it in perimenopause has real cellular consequences Only 6% of US adults are metabolically healthy; symptoms of the rest range from brain fog to poor sleep to slow recovery Methylene blue supports mitochondrial energy production and works as a bridge while you optimize your health more broadly If a GABA supplement works for you, that's a warning sign worth paying attention to Down-regulating the nervous system too fast, without mitochondrial support, can cause a crash Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is most effective once you have a foundational health plan in place Sleep is one of the most powerful levers for mitochondrial health 00:00 – Introduction and Dr. Scott's background 04:13 – Why midlife women's bodies stop responding the way they used to 07:32 – Progesterone, GABA, and sleep disruption 09:04 – What mitochondria actually do and why they matter 13:16 – The 6% metabolic health statistic 17:00 – The sympathetic spiral of doom, explained 21:01 – Cortisol: misunderstood and mismanaged 29:32 – What methylene blue is and how to use it 33:55 – Who should not take methylene blue 38:33 – Performance, travel, and targeted use 47:17 – GABA support and down-regulating the nervous system 55:18 – Hyperbaric oxygen therapy: benefits, timing, and protocols 01:00:52 – One action to take today 01:03:09 – Where to find Dr. Scott and his products Guest Links: Dr. Scott Sherr: drscottsherr.com Troscriptions: troscriptions.com Use code LIVINGWELL for 10% off Products mentioned: Just Blue, Blue Cannatine, Tro Calm, Tro Zzz This episode is brought to you by Good Health Saunas.

In this episode of the Health Optimization Medicine Podcast, the HOMeHOPe faculty, Dr. Scott Sherr, Dr. Ted Achacoso, Dr. Jup Kuipers, and Dr. Allen Bookatz reunite in person in Washington, D.C.. Moving away from traditional classifications of illness, the team breaks down a powerful paradigm shift: chronic disease and aging are not separate processes—chronic disease is aging. Drawing from the pioneering frameworks of biogerontologist Aubrey de Grey and the SENS Research Foundation, they discuss how flawed metabolism inherently accumulates structural damage long before a clinical diagnosis ever appears. Join us as we delve into: •The Metabolism Flaw: How the very process keeping us alive produces reactive oxygen species and damage that eventually leads to tissue breakdown and pathology. •Reclassifying Disease: Moving past the old congenital vs. infectious vs. chronic model to target metabolism directly. •The $30,000 Stem Cell Mistake: Why dropping thousands on mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) or exosomes is a waste of money if your body is trapped in a cellular defense posture. •The Cell Danger Response (CDR): Understanding Robert Naviaux's work on how ancient defense mechanisms shut down growth and repair under stress. •Morbidity Compression: Shifting your biology back to your optimal 21-to-30-year-old baseline to maximize healthspan and ensure you live vibrant before a rapid, peaceful end. This episode is for you if: •You want to understand why biohacking shortcuts like stem cells require metabolic priming to actually work. •You are tired of "normal" lab ranges meant for a sick population and want true, age-optimized biomarkers. •You want to stop guessing what vitamins or antioxidants your body needs and start measuring your exact metabolomic fingerprint.

In this episode, Leigh Ann welcomes Dr. Scott Sherr, co-founder of Troscriptions, for a conversation on GABA, anxiety, stress, sleep, and fast-acting nervous system support. Dr. Sherr shares how his background in internal medicine, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, and health optimization medicine led him to help create products designed to support people while they are on a longer healing journey. He explains why many people may be struggling with GABA deficiency, how chronic stress can deplete the body's calming pathways, and why anxiety, insomnia, racing thoughts, and low energy are often interconnected. Leigh Ann and Dr. Sherr discuss the unique buccal troche delivery method, how it differs from capsules and sublingual supplements, and why it can allow for faster absorption and more flexible dosing. The conversation also explores TroCalm, Trozy, alcohol's impact on the GABA-glutamate balance, sleep architecture, and why calming the nervous system does not have to mean feeling sedated.Product Discount Codes + LinksHoolest: Website (Discount Code: THEACCRESCENT10)Froya Hair Care: Website (Link gives 10% off)Herbal Face Food: Website (Discount Code: LAL30)Episode LinksTroscriptions - Website (Discount Code: LEIGHANN)Guest InfoDr. Scott Sherr - WebsiteRelated EpisodesPodcast Ep. 203: Anna Finck - Reconnecting to Our Bodies, Reclaiming Our Health, and Remembering Our PowerPodcast Ep. 150: Michael Byrne - The Bia Smart Sleep MaskWork w/Leigh AnnLearn: What is EVOX Therapy?Book: Schedule a Session or FREE Discovery CallMembership: What is The Healing Alchemy MembershipConnect w/Me & Learn MoreWebsiteInstagramTiktokYoutube

If you've been doing everything right and still feel exhausted, anxious, and like your body just won't cooperate — this episode is for you. I sat down with Dr. Scott Sherr, a board-certified internal medicine physician and COO of Troscriptions, to talk about the sympathetic spiral: a chronic fight-or-flight loop most people don't even know they're in. And here's what surprised me most — you don't have to feel stressed to be stuck in it. We get into why your cellular energy and your anxiety are locked in a loop, what mitochondrial dysfunction actually means for your daily life, and how a specific sequence of support can help you finally start feeling better. We also go deep on methylene blue — the history, how it works, the right dosing range, and the sourcing and safety details that most people skip (including who should absolutely not use it). Plus: why GABA deficiency is so common, how to calm your nervous system without sedating yourself, and why sleep is a full-day practice — not just a bedtime routine.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy or HBOT is one of the most scientifically validated yet underutilized treatments in modern medicine. And Dr. Scott Sherr has spent his career proving exactly why. In this episode, Dr. Sherr board certified internal medicine physician, hyperbaric oxygen specialist, and COO of Troscriptions breaks down everything you need to know about HBOT: how it works at the cellular level, which conditions it treats, how to access it, and how to combine it with cutting-edge molecules like methylene blue for maximum results. Whether you're dealing with brain fog, chronic fatigue, long COVID, TBI, or simply want to optimize your health and slow down aging this episode is for you.

In this episode of the Health Optimization Medicine Podcast, hosts Dr. Scott Sherr and Jodi Duval come together for an intimate, parent-to-parent roundtable. As the only current parents on the HOMeHOPe faculty, they dive deep into the specific biology of preconception, pregnancy, and pediatric health optimization. Moving beyond typical disease management, they explore how to foster both psychological and cellular safety across the entire family unit. Join us as we delve into: The Masterclass Blueprint: Navigating the fastest period of human growth and biological wiring from preconception to age 12. The Energy Demands of Fertility: Why oocytes (eggs) and reproductive organs hold the highest mitochondrial density per cell in the body. Pediatric Shifts: Addressing modern rises in childhood insomnia, allergies, immune dysregulation, and pediatric autoimmunity through an exposomic lens. The Testing Trap: Why traditional adult lab testing templates aren't always required—or appropriate—for resilient, self-correcting children. Family Attunement & Nervous System Regulation: Understanding why adult parent optimization directly dictates child behavior, sleep quality, and home environment stressors. This episode is for you if: You are a parent looking to leverage practical bioenergetics, chronobiology, and clean exposomics for your household. You are preparing for pregnancy and want to optimize cellular health during the critical 90-day preconception timeline. Your child is struggling with modern issues like appetite dysregulation, blue-light toxicity, or environmental heavy metal burden. You want a sustainable template for family health that values parent self-care over self-sacrifice.

If you're eating well, exercising, taking supplements, and still don't feel like yourself, your nervous system may be stuck in survival mode. Most people assume low energy means they need more discipline, another supplement, or the latest health hack. But what if the real problem isn't effort at all? Studies estimate that over 70% of primary care visits are linked to stress-related disorders. At the same time, mitochondrial dysfunction is increasingly recognized as a contributor to fatigue, poor recovery, and reduced resilience.  In this episode of Uncover Your Eyes, Dr. Meenal Agarwal sits down with Dr. Scott Sherr, a Physician who specializes in health optimization medicine. They explore the connection between chronic stress, nervous system dysregulation, and cellular energy production. Together, they discuss hyperbaric oxygen therapy, methylene blue, and practical strategies to improve recovery and performance.  In this episode, you'll uncover:

Our trusted source for Methylene Blue: https://www.troscriptions.com/muscle (10% off) Functional medicine Dr. Scott Sherr joins Ben Pakulski to break down methylene blue — the 100-year-old compound that's become one of Ben's favorite tools for energy, focus, and endurance. Dr. Sherr explains how it reboots mitochondrial function in days (not months), how one endurance athlete he coaches cut three hours off a 100-mile race, and how to dose it safely. Plus the warning most people never hear: why the majority of methylene blue sold online is contaminated, and what to look for in a clean source. In this episode… → The bottleneck behind almost everything (energy, brain, recovery, fat loss)  → The four complexes of your electron transport chain, and where most men are blocked → Why statins might be quietly trashing the system you're trying to optimize → Which molecule does "ninja moves" for mitochondrial dysfunction → The exact dosing protocol Scott uses for performance, travel, sauna, and endurance About Dr. Sherr Dr. Scott Sherr is a board-certified Internal Medicine physician and one of the leading clinical voices on methylene blue and mitochondrial medicine.

We talk a lot about hormones in midlife, hot flashes, weight gain, sleep issues, low libido. But one of the biggest complaints I hear from women is actually about their brain. The brain fog. The anxiety that comes out of nowhere. The flat motivation. The unpredictable sleep. The feeling that you just do not feel like yourself anymore. And for a lot of women, that is the part that feels the most unsettling. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Scott Sherr to go much deeper into what may actually be happening underneath those symptoms. We talk about mitochondria, brain energy, neurotransmitters, methylene blue, nitric oxide, GABA, glutamate, and even nicotine, and how all of these may play a role in the way the midlife brain feels and functions. This is one of those conversations that helps connect the dots between hormones and everything else that is happening in the brain and nervous system during this transition. If you have been feeling mentally flat, overstimulated, exhausted, or like your brain has changed in ways no one can fully explain, this conversation is going to open up a whole new lens on what may be going on. In this episode, we cover: Why brain fog is such a common midlife complaint What mitochondria actually are and why they matter for brain energy How estrogen loss may contribute to mitochondrial dysfunction How methylene blue may support mitochondria, energy production, and mental clarity The difference between low-dose and high-dose methylene blue use The truth about methylene blue and nitric oxide Why GABA, glutamate, progesterone, magnesium, and B6 matter for the midlife brain How stress and sympathetic overload affect mood, sleep, and focus Why nicotine is being explored for cognition, brain inflammation, and vagus nerve support Why HRT may help, but may not be the whole story for every woman Who this episode is for This episode is for women in perimenopause and menopause who are dealing with brain fog, anxiety, fatigue, poor motivation, sleep disruption, feeling overstimulated, or simply not feeling like themselves anymore. It is especially for women who want to understand what may be happening beyond hormones alone and are curious about the role of mitochondrial health, brain energy, and neurotransmitters in midlife symptoms.   Dr. Sherr is a board-certified internal medicine physician and a specialist in Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy. He's the COO of Troscriptions, a company developing physician-formulated buccal troches designed to support things like energy, focus, sleep, and stress resilience using compounds like methylene blue and other novel ingredients.

In this episode of the Health Optimization Medicine Podcast, the HOMeHOPe Faculty (Dr. Scott Sherr, Dr. Allen Bookatz, Dr. Ted Achacoso, and Dr. Jup Kuipers) dive deep into the unseen world inside your stomach. Moving beyond simple probiotics, they discuss the gut as a "post-natal organ" and explore how the trillions of microbes inside you actually dictate your cravings, your mood, and your immune system.

In this episode of the Health Optimization Medicine Podcast, Dr. Scott Sherr, Dr. Allen Bookatz, and Dr. Jup Kuipers come together live in studio in Washington, D.C. to discuss the dangers of over-optimization and the "more is better" mentality. They explore real clinical case studies of patients who inadvertently damaged their health by blindly following supplement trends. Join us as we delve into: The dangers of over-supplementing with high-dose Fish Oil and Vitamin B6. How shifting to an "Omega-3 dominant" ratio can actually hinder your immune system's ability to heal injuries. Why you should treat metabolomic testing like the dashboard of a car to prevent the "check engine light" of chronic disease. How clinical metabolomics allows you to stop guessing and start subtracting unnecessary pills from your daily routine. This episode is for you if: You are experiencing wellness burnout and taking a massive handful of supplements every day without knowing if they are working. You want to understand the difference between being "fit" (e.g., running a marathon) and being truly cellularly "healthy." You are curious about functional testing and how it differs from the standard disease-focused bloodwork at a primary care clinic. You want a clear strategy to cut through social media influencer noise and build a foundational, personalized health protocol.

In this episode of the Health Optimization Medicine Podcast, the HOMeHOPe Faculty comes together for a roundtable conversation exploring the science and clinical application of creatine. Moving beyond its reputation as just a performance supplement for "gym bros," Boomer Anderson, Dr. Scott Sherr, Dr. Allen Bookatz, and Dr. Ted Achacoso break down how creatine functions as a critical cellular battery buffer. Join us as we delve into: How creatine bypasses the "methylation tax" by saving the body from depleting SAMe reserves to produce energy. Why muscle is a metabolic determinant of resilience and not just a cosmetic feature. The evolutionary mismatch that increases our cellular energy demands due to a highly sympathetic, stressed lifestyle. The role of creatine in brain health is particularly important for supporting working memory, mitigating cognitive fatigue, and protecting against excitotoxicity. This episode is for you if: You are curious about how to support your body's cellular energy and mitochondrial function. You follow a vegetarian or plant-based diet and want to understand your specific creatine supplementation needs. You want to understand the difference between maintaining muscle for aesthetic reasons versus metabolic health. You are looking for strategies to mitigate mental fatigue and sleep deprivation.

Why are so many women waking up exhausted… but unable to shut their brain off?” In this episode, Dr. Mariza sits down with Scott Sherr to unpack the hidden nervous system and biochemical shifts driving sleep struggles, anxiety, exhaustion, and feeling “wired and tired” in midlife. Together, they explore why women in perimenopause often lose stress resilience, why the brain gets stuck in overdrive at night, and how neurotransmitters like GABA, serotonin, adenosine, and cortisol shape sleep quality, recovery, and mood. They also dive into the powerful connection between mitochondrial health, nervous system regulation, energy production, and why building more “reserve” may be the missing key to feeling calm, focused, and resilient again. If you've been struggling with middle-of-the-night wakeups, burnout, anxiety, or feeling like your brain never truly powers down, this episode will help connect the dots—and offer practical solutions that actually move the needle. Dr. Scott Sherr Dr. Scott Sherr is a physician, health optimization expert, and Chief Operating Officer of Troscriptions. His work focuses on nervous system regulation, mitochondrial health, hyperbaric medicine, sleep optimization, and performance medicine.

In this episode of the HOMe Podcast, Dr. Scott Sherr, Dr. Ted Achacoso, Dr. Jup Kuipers, and Dr. Allen Bookatz explore a foundational principle of Health Optimization Medicine: What's toxic to the cell is toxic to every organ. Through real clinical cases — including mercury toxicity, arsenic exposure, and environmental toxin accumulation — the team reveals how modern medicine often misses the root cause of disease by focusing on isolated organ systems instead of cellular function. From chronic low-level toxin exposure to acute breakdown events, this episode highlights how toxins disrupt mitochondrial energy production, leading to widespread dysfunction across the body. Most importantly, the conversation emphasizes the role of metabolomics in identifying these hidden stressors early — before they manifest as disease. Join us as we delve into: • Why toxins affect every organ through the cell • A real case of mercury toxicity missed by multiple specialists • How chronic exposure becomes acute illness • Why traditional medicine misses root causes • The role of mitochondria in energy production and health • How metabolomics detects early toxicity and dysfunction This episode is for you if: • You want to understand the root cause of chronic illness • You're exposed to environmental toxins (food, water, air) • You're interested in preventative and optimization-based medicine • You want to take a proactive approach to long-term health You can also find this episode on…Youtube: https://youtu.be/CMhFC5IUKl0 Find more from Health Optimization Medicine and Practice (HOMeHOPe): Website: https://homehope.org/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/homehopeorg/ Use PODCAST10 to get 10% OFF your purchase of the Clinical Metabolomics Module at https://homehope.org/products/clinical-metabolomics Find more from Troscriptions: Website: https://troscriptions.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/troscriptions/ Use POD10 to get 10% OFF your Troscriptions purchase at https://troscriptions.com/collections/our-products

In this episode of the Health Optimization Medicine Podcast, Dr. Scott Sherr sits down with JJ Virgin — nutrition expert, bestselling author, and founder of the Health Business Growth Collective — to explore how healthcare practitioners can build trust, authority, and impact in today's rapidly evolving landscape. With the rise of AI and what JJ calls a "trust recession," the traditional ways of building a practice are no longer enough. Instead, practitioners must learn how to stand out as a trusted authority — combining credibility, authenticity, and real-world proof. JJ breaks down her powerful "Trusted Authority Framework," explaining how clinicians can differentiate themselves, connect with patients, and grow their influence without becoming influencers. This episode is a must-listen for practitioners looking to grow, scale, and future-proof their practice in the age of AI. Join us as we delve into: The "Trust Recession" and why it's reshaping healthcare The difference between being an influencer vs a trusted authority Why vulnerability and storytelling build trust faster than credentials How to develop a contrarian stance that defines your expertise The power of patient stories as proof (and why they outperform credentials) Why most practitioners struggle with imposter syndrome — and how to reframe it This episode is for you if: You're a practitioner looking to grow your practice You want to build authority without becoming a social media influencer You're navigating AI, personal branding, and patient trust You want to stand out in a crowded health and wellness space You can also find this episode on… YouTube: https://youtu.be/rmyDXStM_Dk Find more from JJ Virgin Website: https://jjvirgin.com Health Business Growth Collective: https://hbgc.co Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jj.virgin/ Find more from Health Optimization Medicine and Practice (HOMeHOPe): Website: https://homehope.org/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/homehopeorg/ HOMeHOPe Conference 2026: https://homehope.org/homehope-conference-2026 Use PODCAST10 to get 10% OFF your purchase of the Clinical Metabolomics Module at https://homehope.org/products/clinical-metabolomics Find more from Troscriptions: Website: https://troscriptions.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/troscriptions/ Use POD10 to get 10% OFF your Troscriptions purchase at https://troscriptions.com/collections/our-products

You think your motivation is the reason you keep showing up… but it might actually be the exact reason you keep quitting. Sal, Adam, and Justin break down why basing your entire fitness identity around how you LOOK is a ticking time bomb… and why the most disciplined, hardest working people are often the first ones to burn out and walk away. This is the episode that changes how you think about fitness forever. The guys go deep on what it actually means to have a HEALTHY relationship with fitness… one that carries you through surgeries, stress, new babies, bad sleep, and every curveball life throws at you. They share real client stories, including a woman who went through surgery and major life stress and almost couldn't see the massive progress she had made because she was so locked in on the wrong metrics. Sound familiar? It should. Because this is almost EVERYONE. Plus… Sal shares the gorilla suit psychology experiment that perfectly explains why fixating on appearance causes you to completely miss all the other incredible benefits fitness is giving you. And Adam opens up about the pivotal moment he finally gave himself permission to just go do four sets of squats and leave… and why that single shift made him look BETTER than his peak shape in his mid twenties. This is the mindset upgrade your fitness journey has been missing. Live caller coaching follows the intro for even more real world application.

In this episode of the Health Optimization Medicine Podcast, Boomer Anderson, Dr. Ted Achacoso, Dr. Scott Sherr, and Jodi Duval explore mental health through the lens of health optimization medicine. Rather than viewing mental health as a set of diagnoses, the conversation reframes it as a function of cellular health — where brain function is driven by mitochondrial performance, inflammation, nutrient status, and environmental inputs. From neurotransmitter imbalances to brain inflammation and the gut-brain-microbiome axis, this episode breaks down how modern stressors, lifestyle, and environment impact mental health at the cellular level. Most importantly, the team explains why true mental health optimization must begin with optimizing the health of the cell. Join us as we delve into: • Why mental health should be viewed at the cellular level • The role of mitochondria in brain energy and signaling • Brain inflammation and its impact on mood and cognition • The gut-brain-microbiome axis and neurotransmitter production • Why stress, sleep, and environment drive mental health outcomes This episode is for you if: • You struggle with brain fog, anxiety, or low mood • You want a deeper, root-cause understanding of mental health • You're a practitioner looking beyond traditional psychiatry • You want to optimize cognitive performance and resilience You can also find this episode on…YouTube: https://youtu.be/5xqAzkMUpBs Find more from Health Optimization Medicine and Practice (HOMeHOPe): Website: https://homehope.org/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/homehopeorg/ Virtual Symposium 2026: https://homehope.org/homehope-virtual-symposium-2026 Use PODCAST10 to get 10% OFF your purchase of the Clinical Metabolomics Module at https://homehope.org/products/clinical-metabolomics Find more from Troscriptions: Website: https://troscriptions.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/troscriptions/ Use POD10 to get 10% OFF your Troscriptions purchase at https://troscriptions.com/collections/our-products

PicklePod 2.0 is presented by Marek Health. Use our code THEDINK for 10% off your $299 Intake Assessment at https://MarekHealth.com/ This week on the PicklePod, everything goes off the rails. From controversial line calls at the US Open to a shocking paddle-toss disqualification in Sacramento, this might be the most chaotic week in pro pickleball yet. We break down: - The “hooking” controversy everyone is talking about - Why some calls went viral… and others didn't - The paddle toss DQ that has players divided - Anna Leigh Waters & the Pickleball Slam fallout - Jack Sock's rise (and what's next) - Federico's dominance in men's singles - Nico's silver medal run (and what went wrong

Dr. Scott Sherr is a clinician, hyperbaric medicine specialist, co-founder of Troscriptions, and one of the founding faculty of the Health Optimization Medicine and Practice nonprofit — and in this return episode, he comes with a very different perspective than his first appearance. What changed? He stopped putting everyone in the chamber. In this conversation, Scott and Freddie unpack the two hyperbaric chamber deaths that shook the industry in 2025 — what actually went wrong, what safety standards clinics and home users are missing, and why a sympathetically dominant nervous system may render even the best biohacking tools completely ineffective. From there they go deep on mitochondrial function as the master upstream driver of energy, detox, digestion, healing, and longevity — and why most people need to subtractbefore they can optimize. The second half of this episode is a complete masterclass on methylene blue — what it actually does at the mitochondrial level, how to find your ideal dose (hint: you'll know within three to five days), why 94% of American adults are metabolically compromised enough to benefit from it, and how one ultramarathoner shaved three hours off his Leadville 100 finish time using it strategically. Scott and Freddie also tackle epigenetic age testing, immunosenescence, the dopamine-draining effects of smartphones on libido and focus, and why screen time may be the most underrated threat to your nervous system recovery. Plus — a full breakdown of the Troscriptions product suite: TruCalm, TruZ, TruImmune, and methylene blue's role in each.Episode Highlights [04:27] – Dr. Scott explains how his work now spans clinical care, practitioner training, and product development [06:35] – Why mitochondrial function has become the foundation of his approach to health and recovery [07:42] – What likely caused recent hyperbaric chamber accidents and why safety protocols matter [13:12] – Why stacking devices inside a chamber creates unnecessary risk [15:16] – The problem with influencer protocols and overcomplicating health routines [18:52] – Soft-shell vs. hard-shell chambers and how pressure impacts oxidative stress [22:42] – A practical framework for intensive vs. maintenance hyperbaric use [27:59] – Why direct mitochondrial testing is limited and how metabolomics fills the gap [29:55] – Common signs of mitochondrial dysfunction, from brain fog to poor recovery [35:53] – Dr. Scott revisits methylene blue and challenges common misconceptions [39:28] – Why most people may benefit from mitochondrial support despite “not being sick” [41:44] – How to think about dosing and what a proper response should feel like [44:04] – The role of sympathetic dominance in blocking healing and recovery [46:04] – Why longevity metrics need context beyond just improving numbers [50:16] – How screen time and dopamine overload impact energy, libido, and focus [53:08] – The expanding Troscriptions product line and the goal of needing less over time Scott's First Episode: https://open.spotify.com/episode/42vjXWQ9HAFqOd2avJsj6n?si=76da7d2114694e6a   Links & Resources Connect with Dr. Scott Sherr: https://www.instagram.com/drscottsherr/ Buy Troscriptions: https://troscriptions.com/?rfsn=9066612.3f3859&utm_source=refersion&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=9066612.3f3859 Use Code: BeautifullyBroken Silver Biotics: https://bit.ly/3JnxyDD Use Code: beautifullybroken   CONNECT WITH FREDDIEWork with Me: https://www.beautifullybroken.world/biological-blueprintWebsite and Store: (http://www.beautifullybroken.world) Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/freddie.kimmelYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@beautifullybrokenworld Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Boomer Anderson is not your typical health guru—he's a former investment banker turned health optimization pioneer who got the wake-up call of a lifetime when he was diagnosed with cardiovascular disease at just 30 years old. Instead of accepting the standard “take a pill and come back in ten years” approach, Boomer went all-in on understanding what true health actually means. Today he's the CEO of Troscriptions, building science-backed solutions for stress, sleep, focus, and immune function, and the driving force behind Health Optimization Medicine and Practice (HOMe HOPe), a nonprofit that trains doctors worldwide to optimize for health rather than just manage disease. With a background that spans global finance, over 65 countries, and a relentless passion for challenging the process, Boomer brings the kind of real-world, research-backed insights that every entrepreneur and leader needs to hear.Takeaways:Your Stress Bucket Is Probably Already Broken: Boomer introduces the concept of the stress bucket—a container for all the stress in your life from work, relationships, environment, and yes, even exercise. When that bucket overflows, what you think is helping you (like intense workouts) can actually accelerate damage. Leaders need to audit their total stress load before adding more to the pile.Sleep Is the ROI Play You're Ignoring: Getting just six hours of sleep has the same cognitive impact as drinking two to three beers. Pull an all-nighter and you're operating like you've had ten to twelve. For entrepreneurs whose greatest asset is their brain, sacrificing sleep is literally leaving performance and money on the table.Health Starts at the Cellular Level: Boomer breaks down his framework that true health is more than the absence of disease—it's about getting your body's basic cell optimized and balanced. When you bring biomarkers like hormones and nutrients back to their evolutionary optimal levels (ages 21 to 30), the symptoms that plague most executives—brain fog, low energy, poor sleep—begin to fall away.Sound Bytes:“The through line for everything that I do is challenging the process.”“Getting six hours of sleep a night versus eight is the cognitive impact of drinking two to three beers. An all-nighter is the equivalent of drinking ten to twelve.”“Your day doesn't start with when you wake up in your morning routine. It actually starts with your evening routine.”Connect & Discover Boomer:Instagram: @boomersnhWebsite: troscriptions.comX: @boomersnhLinkedIn: @boomerandersonNonprofit: homehope.orgYouTube: Troscriptions

This is one of the BEST interviews we've ever done on supplements and cutting-edge supplement technology... We had Dr. Scott Sherr on the podcast — a board-certified internal medicine physician who practices health optimization medicine and hyperbaric oxygen therapy. This guy KNOWS his stuff and we break down some of the most powerful compounds you can get your hands on to improve cognitive function, athletic performance, and longevity. Here's the reality... 94% of US adults are metabolically UNHEALTHY. That means your mitochondria — the powerhouses of your cells — are struggling to produce the energy you need. Dr. Sherr explains exactly why this happens, how it connects to everything from anxiety and depression to fat loss struggles, and what you can actually DO about it. We dive DEEP into methylene blue — the first drug ever registered with the FDA back in 1897 — and why it's become one of the most powerful tools for supporting mitochondrial function and energy production. But it doesn't stop there... We cover the GABAergic system and why most people are walking around GABA deficient (hello anxiety, insomnia, and mood issues), the synergy between methylene blue and red light therapy, how to use these compounds for travel, and a complete sleep optimization stack that could finally get you those 90+ Oura Ring scores. If you're tired of being tired, stressed about being stressed, or just want to understand how to actually support your body at a cellular level — this episode is a MUST listen.

In this episode of the Health Optimization Medicine Podcast, join Boomer Anderson, Dr. Ted Achacoso, and Jodi Duval as they break down one of the most important frameworks in Health Optimization Medicine — the Cell Danger Response (CDR). Originally developed by Dr. Robert Naviaux, the Cell Danger Response explains how cells respond to threat, adapt for survival, and either resolve or become "stuck" — leading to chronic disease. This episode walks through the three stages of the CDR, how mitochondria act as both sensors and signaling hubs, and why many modern conditions — from inflammation to chronic illness — are actually stalled healing processes. Most importantly, the team explains how clinicians and individuals can identify where the body is "stuck" and what to do (and NOT do) to support proper resolution. Join us as we delve into: What the Cell Danger Response (CDR) is and why it matters The 3 stages: defense, repair, and resolution How mitochondria act as sensors — not just energy producers Why inflammation is a protective response, not the problem How chronic disease reflects a "stalled" healing process This episode is for you if: You're dealing with chronic inflammation or unresolved health issues You want to understand the root cause of disease beyond symptoms You're a practitioner looking for a systems-based framework You want to optimize health by working with your biology, not against it You can also find this episode on… YouTube: https://youtu.be/NWEq32hlZrE Find more from Health Optimization Medicine and Practice (HOMeHOPe): Website: https://homehope.org/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/homehopeorg/ Virtual Symposium 2026: https://homehope.org/homehope-virtual-symposium-2026 Use PODCAST10 to get 10% OFF your purchase of the Clinical Metabolomics Module at https://homehope.org/products/clinical-metabolomics Find more from Troscriptions: Website: https://troscriptions.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/troscriptions/ Use POD10 to get 10% OFF your Troscriptions purchase at https://troscriptions.com/collections/our-products

In this episode of the Health Optimization Medicine Podcast, Dr. Scott Sherr is joined by renowned neurologist and bestselling author Dr. David Perlmutter to explore one of the most important breakthroughs in brain health — the role of microglia. Often overlooked, microglial cells are the brain's immune system and play a central role in determining whether the brain thrives or degenerates over time. Dr. Perlmutter explains how these cells can shift between protective (M2) and destructive (M1) states — and how this shift underlies neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and more. Most importantly, this episode highlights how everyday lifestyle choices — from diet and exercise to metabolic health — directly influence brain function and long-term cognitive resilience. Join us as we delve into: What microglia are and why they control brain health The difference between M1 (destructive) and M2 (protective) states How metabolism shapes the brain's immune response Why conditions like Alzheimer's are rooted in immune dysfunction The connection between blood sugar, insulin, and brain degeneration This episode is for you if: You want to protect your brain and prevent cognitive decline You're interested in the science of Alzheimer's and neurodegeneration You want actionable strategies to improve brain health You're curious about the future of brain optimization and longevity You can also find this episode on… Youtube: https://youtu.be/EMrlchMOZKk Find more from Dr. David Perlmutter Website: https://www.drperlmutter.com Book: https://braindefenders.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-perlmutter-md/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/davidperlmutter/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DavidPerlmutterMd/ Find more from Health Optimization Medicine and Practice (HOMeHOPe): Website: https://homehope.org/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/homehopeorg/ Virtual Symposium 2026: https://homehope.org/homehope-virtual-symposium-2026 Use PODCAST10 to get 10% OFF your purchase of the Clinical Metabolomics Module at https://homehope.org/products/clinical-metabolomics Find more from Troscriptions Website: https://troscriptions.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/troscriptions/ Use POD10 to get 10% OFF your Troscriptions purchase at https://troscriptions.com/collections/our-products

In this solo episode of the Get Lean, Eat Clean podcast, I discuss my personal health journey, specifically addressing recent shoulder pain. I share my experience in the hope that listeners can find relevant information for their own situations, particularly concerning how to fix shoulder pain. This episode also touches on maintaining a healthy lifestyle despite physical challenges.

If you're only lifting weights to build muscle… you might be leaving serious gains on the table. In this episode, the guys break down why strength training alone isn't always enough, and how adding the right forms of cardio, mobility work, recovery, and even modalities like Pilates can actually improve muscle growth, performance, and longevity. They explain how your "gas tank" (cardiovascular fitness) can limit your strength, why mobility unlocks more muscle potential, and how tools like sauna use and recovery strategies can enhance results without overtraining. The conversation also expands into modern stress, community, and why human connection may be one of the most overlooked factors in overall health and resilience. Plus, they dive into new research on fish oil and mental health, and share some wild fitness and animal facts along the way.   The Spring Bundle: Symmetry ($187), Prime ($107), Advanced Training Techniques Guide ($47) all for $147 (over 50% off) mapsmarch.com This episode is brought to you by KION ! ⇨⇨go to ⁠getkion.com/mindpump⁠ 20% off, No code needed automatically applied at check out!   This episode is also brought to you by Troscriptions! ⇨⇨go to ⁠troscriptions.com/MINDPUMP⁠ Use code "MINDPUMP" for 10% off your first order   What does Seed Daily Synbiotic do for you?

In this episode of the Health Optimization Medicine Podcast, join Boomer Anderson, Jodi Duval, Dr. Allen Bookatz, and Dr. Ted Achacoso as they explore the future of clinical intelligence — and why medicine must move beyond single biomarkers to understanding networks within the body. Rather than chasing isolated lab values like glucose, cholesterol, or testosterone, the conversation shifts toward a systems-based approach — where every biomarker is part of a dynamic network of relationships. From metabolomics to hormone balance, this episode explains why optimizing health requires understanding how different systems interact, adapt, and influence each other in real time. Join us as we delve into: Why single biomarkers are only "nodes" in a larger biological network The concept of nodes and edges in human physiology How glucose, thyroid, and metabolic systems are interconnected Why cholesterol, inflammation, and B vitamins must be viewed together The risks of optimizing one biomarker (like testosterone) in isolation This episode is for you if: You've been told to "fix" a single lab value but still feel off You want to understand your lab results in a deeper, systems-based way You're a practitioner looking to move beyond reductionist medicine You're interested in metabolomics and the future of health optimization You can also find this episode on… Youtube: https://youtu.be/CMbdZEnnuGo Find more from Health Optimization Medicine and Practice (HOMeHOPe): Website: https://homehope.org/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/homehopeorg/ Virtual Symposium 2026:https://homehope.org/homehope-virtual-symposium-2026 Use PODCAST10 to get 10% OFF your purchase of the Clinical Metabolomics Module at https://www.homehope.org/ Find more from Troscriptions: Website: https://troscriptions.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/troscriptions/ Use POD10 to get 10% OFF your Troscriptions purchase at https://www.troscriptions.com/

In this episode, Dr. Jockers sits down with Dr. Scott Sherr to break down why so many people are stuck in fight or flight and what it's really doing to your brain and body. You'll learn how GABA acts as the "brake system" for your nervous system and why low levels are linked to anxiety, poor sleep, and burnout. They also unpack why fixing stress is not just mental, but deeply biological.   You'll get a clearer picture of what's actually going on inside your cells when you feel exhausted, wired, or mentally foggy. Dr. Sherr explains how your mitochondria play a central role in all of it and why supporting them can change how you feel day to day. They also talk about tools like methylene blue and oxygen therapy, and when they can actually make a difference.   They also get into why constantly pushing harder isn't the answer, and how being able to slow your system down can actually improve your performance. You'll hear what it really means to shift into a parasympathetic state and why so many people struggle to get there. It may change the way you think about stress, recovery, and what your body actually needs.   In This Episode:  00:24 Show Intro and Guest 05:04 Sympathetic Spiral of Doom Explained 08:40 The Parasympathetic Edge 12:32 GABA Gas and Brakes System 15:22 Gut Inflammation and GABA Connection 16:49 Safer Ways to Support GABA 19:55 Alcohol, Benzos and Dependence 22:26 Why Calming Alone Can Backfire 27:13 Mitochondrial Dysfunction Root Causes 30:29 Methylene Blue as an Energy Bridge 32:40 Methylene Blue Controversies 36:20 SSRI Safety Considerations 37:47 High Dose Clinical Use 38:27 Versus CoQ10, PQQ and Creatine 41:29 Hyperbaric Oxygen Basics 43:29 Acute vs Chronic Protocols 46:01 Chamber Pressure Differences 47:17 Health Optimization Medicine Explained 49:55 Trauma and the Sympathetic Loop 55:26 Vagus Nerve Tools and Limits 01:02:54 Performance, Recovery and Closing Insights If you want practical, natural strategies to balance your hormones, heal your gut, boost your energy, and slow aging, don't miss The Dr. Josh Axe Show.

In this episode of the Health Optimization Medicine Podcast, join Dr. Scott Sherr, Dr. Ted Achacoso, Dr. Allen Bookatz, and Jodi Duval as they explore the hidden cost of convenience and comfort in modern life.   From ultra-processed foods and low-fiber diets to sedentary lifestyles and technology-driven comfort, the conversation dives into how convenience is quietly reshaping our biology. The HOMeHOPe Faculty explains why small daily habits — like eating whole foods, moving regularly, and embracing mild discomfort — are essential for maintaining cellular health and resilience.   Rather than trying to "hack" health with quick fixes, the discussion emphasizes consistent lifestyle behaviors that support the microbiome, metabolic function, and long-term health optimization.   Join us as we delve into: • Why fiber is the fastest disappearing macronutrient in modern diets • The role of gut microbiota and short-chain fatty acids in health • Why habits like sleep, eating, and exercise cannot be "banked" • The physiological consequences of ultra-convenient lifestyles • Practical ways to introduce beneficial stress back into daily life   This episode is for you if: • You want to understand how convenience affects human physiology • You're interested in the role of fiber and gut health in disease prevention • You want practical ways to improve resilience and metabolic health • You're curious about the philosophy behind Health Optimization Medicine   You can also find this episode on… YouTube: https://youtu.be/6wLPUuLQgcY   Find more from Health Optimization Medicine and Practice (HOMeHOPe): Website: https://homehope.org/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/homehopeorg/ Virtual Symposium 2026: https://homehope.org/homehope-virtual-symposium-2026 Use PODCAST10 to get 10% OFF your purchase of the Clinical Metabolomics Module at https://www.homehope.org/   Find more from Troscriptions: Website: https://troscriptions.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/troscriptions/ Use POD10 to get 10% OFF your Troscriptions purchase at https://www.troscriptions.com/

In this episode of the Health Optimization Medicine Podcast, the HOMeHOPe Faculty comes together for a roundtable conversation exploring the core philosophical framework behind Health Optimization Medicine. Dr. Scott Sherr, Boomer Anderson, and Dr. Allen Bookatz break down the three fundamental perspective shifts that redefine how we think about health, disease, aging, and the human body itself. Rather than focusing on disease management, this episode introduces the foundational principles behind building health from the cellular level up. Join us as we delve into: • The shift from pathogenesis (studying disease) to salutogenesis (creating health) • Why longevity alone isn't enough without vitality and morbidity compression • How neotenization focuses on restoring youthful biological function • The concept of the holobiont: humans as ecosystems of interconnected organisms This episode is for you if: • You want to understand the philosophy behind Health Optimization Medicine • You're curious why modern healthcare focuses on disease instead of health • You're interested in metabolomics, cellular health, and systems biology • You want a deeper framework for longevity, vitality, and resilience You can also find this episode on… Youtube: https://youtu.be/wuCXmT783_o Find more from Health Optimization Medicine and Practice (HOMeHOPe): Website: https://homehope.org/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/homehopeorg/ Virtual Symposium 2026:https://homehope.org/homehope-virtual-symposium-2026 Use PODCAST10 to get 10% OFF your purchase of the Clinical Metabolomics Module at https://www.homehope.org/ Find more from Troscriptions: Website: https://troscriptions.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/troscriptions/ Use POD10 to get 10% OFF your Troscriptions purchase at https://www.troscriptions.com/

In this episode, Dr. David Jockers explores the seven root causes of inflammation, which are major contributors to chronic conditions such as cancer, heart disease, and autoimmunity. Understanding these underlying factors is essential to addressing inflammation at its source. Dr. Jockers highlights how issues like leaky gut and low stomach acid can trigger systemic inflammation, leading to far-reaching consequences for health.   You'll also learn about the importance of balancing blood sugar to prevent inflammation. Elevated blood sugar levels create advanced glycation end products (AGEs), which damage tissues and lead to oxidative stress. Dr. Jockers explains how blood sugar imbalances set the stage for inflammation and how you can stabilize it to promote healing.   Additionally, the episode dives into the impacts of physical and emotional trauma, toxic load, and circadian rhythm dysfunction on the body's inflammation levels. Dr. Jockers offers practical insights on how to reduce these stressors and better support your body's healing processes, enabling you to restore balance and prevent further health complications.

This episode is brought to you by Troscriptions, Timeline, Joi and Blokes. In this conversation, Dr. Tim Spector breaks down why modern life has quietly dismantled our relationship with fermented foods and how that loss may be fueling inflammation, metabolic disease, and poor mental health. Drawing from the landmark Stanford fermented foods study, he explains how just a few daily servings of fermented foods lowered inflammatory markers by 25%, outperforming fiber alone in immune impact. He outlines the hierarchy of prebiotics, probiotics, and postbiotics, why ultra-processed foods sabotage gut health, and how eating 30 diverse plants per week can measurably improve mood, energy, and microbiome diversity. From reversing type 2 diabetes and fatty liver disease to redefining stool health as a vital sign, Spector argues that restoring gut diversity may be one of the most powerful levers for extending healthspan — potentially adding ten more healthy years of life. ----- 00:00 – The Fermented Foods Study That Changed Everything 03:22 – Health Trends in 2026: Fiber vs. The Protein Craze 06:04 – The 30 Plants Per Week Rule 09:40 – Gut Health and Mental Health Connection 16:27 – What Modern Life Destroyed About Fermentation 21:55 – The Stanford Fermented Foods Study 24:31 – 3 Fermented Foods to Start Today 27:29 – Live vs. Dead Microbes (Postbiotics Explained) 38:56 – Probiotics vs. Prebiotics vs. Postbiotics 48:41 – The Biggest Destroyer of Gut Health 52:48 – The New Gut Health Metric (Nature Study) 01:01:56 – What Your Stool Says About Your Health 01:09:29 – Can Gut Health Reverse Chronic Disease? 01:13:02 – The Simplest Gut Health Rule 01:13:36 – Adding 10 Healthy Years to Your Life ----- Episode resources: Try Troscriptions clinical-grade wellness troches and use checkout code EVERFORWARD for exclusive savings Save 39% on MitoPure longevity gummies with code EVERFORWARD at https://www.Timeline.com/everforward Get 50% off any diagnostic labs with code CHASE at https://www.JoiAndBlokes.com/chase Watch and subscribe on YouTube
