John the Savage returns to the show for a coffee chat. We cover a range of topics including how homesteading has been romantasized on social media, why I don't think being completely off the grid is ideal, our trials and tribulations with gardening, John's current favorite supplements, what two things helped him get out of a funk, why he adds gelatin to his apple juice, why liposomal and rectal delivery supplements are overkill, why we both love to supplement antioxidants, and John's favorite underground Russian nootropics.

What role does genetics and the health of the parents play in a child's risk of developing a skin condition like eczema? Why is it a myth that only the mother's health matters and not the fathers in healthy child development? What causes "leaky skin"? Which foods should be limited initially when healing from eczema? Why can sunlight exposure exacerbate eczema? 
Abbie Bradford answers all of these questions and much more in this chat all about the skin condition called eczema specifically as it relates to children. I grew up with itching the inside of my arms until they bled and when my eczema went away acne cropped up... so I am passionate about this topic and providing resources for parents to avoid a childhood of tarnished self esteem which really affects relationship and career development. Eczema and skin conditions in general are a big deal that can really impair one's ability to live a full life.

Jon Gamble has been studying the root cause of chronic disease for over 30 years. In this interview I cover three major areas with him: Toxicity, deficiency and infection which is the subtitle of his book Mastering Chronic Disease. He uses the oligoscan along with the GI stool map and other tests to help guide people back to vibrant health. 
He talks about why he doesn't ever recommend copper supplementation, why zinc deficiency is such a big deal, the difference between oligoscan and other tests, what the zinc blockade entails, why magnesium is more important to supplement than calcium, which nutrient type O blood types tend to be deficient in, which mineral alcoholics are usually low in, the negative health effects of too much copper in males and females, his thoughts on mercury detox, how he uses homeopathy, and more.

Enjoy this throwback show from a few years ago with Caitlyn Hartigan, creator of the Iron Protocol. In this jam packed three hour extravaganza she tears apart the argument that everyone has iron dysregulation and that nobody is iron deficient. 
She explains how you can be iron deficient without being anemic, why supplementing iron is not only safe but essential for many people, how iron is important for immune function, how your iron recycling system doesn't work if there is no iron to recycle, the different stages of iron deficiency, her thoughts on iron infusions, why serum ferritin is an accurate marker of iron deficiency, why she likes supplementing vitamin D, why iron overload and hemochromatosis are synonymous, and more.
