    Colon Cancer Is Rising in Young Adults — Here’s Why

    Colon cancer used to be considered a disease of older adults. Not anymore. After the deaths of actors like James Van Der Beek and Chadwick Boseman in their early 40s, many are asking why colorectal cancer is increasing in younger people. In this episode of Dr. Simpson Unfiltered, Dr. Terry Simpson explains the rise in early-onset colon cancer, the role of obesity, insulin resistance, IGF-1, inflammation, ultra-processed foods, microbiome disruption, childhood antibiotic exposure, and what the Mediterranean diet can do to lower risk. Most importantly, he discusses why screening at 45 — or earlier for high-risk individuals — remains the most powerful tool we have to prevent this disease. This is a public episode.

  2. Medicine without Capes

    Medicine without Capes

    This week on Dr. Simpson Unfiltered, I take a hard look at what medicine is — and what it isn’t. From the Peter Attia controversy and the responsibilities that come with medical training, to measles outbreaks threatening U.S. elimination status, pediatric vaccine failures, and why men develop heart disease years earlier than women, this episode is about duty, humility, and trust. Medicine isn’t built on personalities or shortcuts — it’s built on protecting patients, especially children, and making small, evidence-based steps forward that actually save lives.

  3. This Week In Medicine

    JAN 25

    This Week In Medicine

    This week on Dr. Simpson Unfiltered, we take on the uncomfortable truth of modern medicine: colorectal cancer is now the leading cancer killer in Americans under 50, heart disease still dominates despite powerful tools we underuse, and misinformation continues to cause real harm — from pregnancy fears to vaccine confusion. We also confront the new reality that millions now turn to AI for medical advice every day. Rather than panic, it’s time to redefine the doctor–patient relationship. This is medicine without dogma, without politics, and without paternalism — grounded in evidence, clinical experience, and the understanding that informed patients still need real doctors.

    Medical News of the Week

    This week, the virus didn’t win — the committee did.Dr. Terry Simpson opens with a personal look at the rollback of the hepatitis B vaccine for newborns — a policy that ignores decades of data from Alaska showing infants catch hepatitis B from caregivers, not just mothers. Then, updates on vaccines that save lives: shingles shots that protect the brain, and HPV vaccines that may erase an entire cancer from the map. You’ll hear how Australia is on track to eliminate cervical cancer by 2035 — thanks to universal HPV vaccination, smarter screening, and access to self-collection testing — and why Dr. Simpson’s own 15-year-old son is fully vaccinated. Sons and daughters alike can help end HPV-linked cancers, from cervical to oral. Also in this episode: * mRNA COVID vaccines linked to 25% lower all-cause mortality. * Mediterranean and MIND diets improve brain function in MS. * Polyphenols from tea, coffee, and berries boost heart health. * WHO endorses GLP-1s for long-term obesity treatment. * New hope for HIV remission, concerns over AI and privacy, and why ERs are seeing a surge in “scromiting.” Dr. Simpson Unfiltered — where data beats dogma, and science always gets the last word.

    Medical News of the Week

    Dr. Terry Simpson takes aim at the CDC’s shocking rollback on vaccine science, as the agency quietly softens its stance on the debunked vaccine–autism myth. This week, a new flu variant emerges, measles returns, and NIH funding for real science dries up. Plus, nearly 90% of people with life-threatening genetic high cholesterol don’t even know they have it — including Dr. Simpson himself. No music. No edits. Just the unfiltered truth in medicine.

    ⭐ CDC Hijacked

    In this episode of The Unfiltered MD, Dr. Terry Simpson breaks down the CDC’s stunning new claim that the statement “vaccines do not cause autism” is not evidence-based — a position that contradicts decades of science. Dr. Simpson explains how this shift follows the same six-step pattern used by con artists everywhere: undermine experts, speak in absolutes, weaponize jargon, oversimplify complex conditions, sell narratives, and reject proven public health. This is not a bureaucratic mistake — it’s a dangerous break with scientific reality, and it fuels a growing ecosystem of detox kits, unvalidated lab tests, anti-vaccine supplements, and fear-based marketing. Dr. Simpson exposes the psychology, the tactics, and the commercial interests behind this new messaging — and why understanding the con-man playbook is now essential for anyone who cares about evidence and public health.
