    The Supply Chain Issue No One is Talking About That Directly Affects Your Health

    China Controls Our Antibiotics. That's Not a Trade Issue — It's a Health Crisis. Dr. Terri and EVEXIAS co-founder Dan DeNeui just got off a two-week sprint through Washington, from the MAHA event with Secretary Kennedy and Dr. Oz, to lunch with former FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb, to the America's First Policy Institute conference. What they brought back isn't political talking points. It's a clear-eyed picture of where medicine is headed, and how close we are to a crisis most people haven't even thought about. Peptides are legally back on the table, for now. But the two and a half years they were off market created a gray market that's still operating, still cutting corners, and still putting patients at risk. Meanwhile, the peptide stacks trending on TikTok aren't just sketchy, they're illegal, and the practitioners prescribing them are going to find out the hard way. Dr. Terri and Dan explain exactly what's safe, what's not, and how to tell the difference. Then there's the supply chain conversation nobody is having loudly enough. Over 80% of the active pharmaceutical ingredients used to make American medications, including antibiotics, come from China and India. The same is true for fertilizer. If either of those supply lines gets cut, it's not an economic problem. It's a warfare problem. Your cells don't care what party you voted for. They just know they need to function. This one is for anyone who wants to understand what's actually happening at the intersection of health policy, food security, and medicine, and why it matters to them personally. What you'll discover: What Dr. Terri and Dan took away from the MAHA event and their conversation with Scott Gottlieb [03:29] Why MAHA is not a political issue — and why your cells don't know if you're a Democrat or Republican [04:58] The peptide gray market: what it is, how it grew, and why it's still dangerous [09:03] The sushi rule for compounding pharmacies — and how to know if yours is cutting corners [12:00] Why EVEXIAS sued the FDA over peptides — and what that means for their credibility in this space [13:13] Peptide stacks: why mixing compounds in a single vial is illegal, unpredictable, and putting practitioners at risk [17:35] The $99 GLP-1 question — and the patient who died of acute pancreatitis from an online platform [24:20] Why fertilizer supply is a national security issue — and what one fertilizer manufacturing plant means for your food [31:36] The API supply chain problem: why China controlling our antibiotic ingredients is a form of warfare [34:58] Why hormone optimization with pellet therapy is still the best place to start — and Dr. Terri's 84-year-old mom as proof [30:04] The decisions being made in Washington right now will directly affect the medications you can access, the food on your table, and the healthcare you receive for decades to come. Dr. Terri and Dan break it all down — so you're not caught off guard. ---- The Dr. Terri Show is presented by EVEXIAS Health Solutions.

    Why Your Probiotic Probably Isn't Working and How to Fix It

    You've heard that probiotics are important — but do you actually know what to take, why it matters, and whether what you're buying is doing anything at all? In this episode, Dr. Terri sits down with Elizabeth for a no-fluff breakdown of everything probiotics: what they are, why modern life is depleting them, and why strain specificity is the future of gut health. They cover the surprising reason you might be too clean for your own good, why rotating your probiotics matters more than chasing the highest CFU count, and how the gut microbiome connects to weight management, hormone health, insulin resistance, depression, cardiovascular disease, and more. You'll also hear how two targeted EVEXIAS formulations — the EVEXIAS GL Pro and the vaginal/bladder-specific probiotic — were designed with clinical research behind them, and why Akkermansia muciniphila may be the most depleted and most important strain in the American gut. Plus: the case for GI mapping, what conventional GI doctors are missing, and why the Japanese eating raw fish into their 100s might have something to teach us about the standard American diet. If you or someone you love is dealing with chronic inflammation, recurring infections, weight struggles, or GI issues — this episode is a must-listen. In This Episode You'll Learn: What probiotics and prebiotics actually are — and why you likely need them even if you eat well The modern lifestyle factors quietly decimating your gut microbiome (including one you'd never expect) Why taking the same probiotic for years may be doing you less good than you think How gut dysbiosis drives hormone imbalances, insulin resistance, depression, cardiovascular disease, and more What makes next-gen, strain-specific probiotics different — and the clinical research behind EVEXIAS GL Pro How the vaginal and bladder microbiomes connect to gut health, and why chronic infections often start in the gut When and why GI mapping is worth it — and what conventional gastroenterology is missing Episode Chapters: 00:02:55 – Probiotics 101: What They Are and Why the American Gut Is in Trouble 00:07:54 – The Hidden Causes of Gut Depletion: Over-Sanitation, Glyphosate, and Modern Diet 00:11:45 – Dysbiosis as the Root Cause: From Hormones and Insulin Resistance to Heart Disease 00:17:59 – Strain Specificity and Next-Gen Probiotics: Why Diversity and Rotation Matter 00:22:01 – Targeted Formulas: The Vaginal Microbiome, EVEXIAS GL Pro, and the Case for GI Mapping Helpful Links: GLPRO Fact Sheet Need Probiotics?

    Fix Your Gut, Fix Your Hormones

    Your Gut Is Controlling Your Hormones — And No One Told You You've done everything right. You're on hormone therapy. Your labs look fine. So why do you still feel terrible? The answer may have nothing to do with your hormone levels — and everything to do with what's happening in your gut. Most practitioners are treating your hormones and your gut as two completely separate systems. But they're not. Your estrogen is being processed, packaged, and either properly excreted or reabsorbed into your bloodstream based entirely on the state of your gut microbiome. If the bacteria in your gut are out of balance, that estrogen doesn't leave your body the way it should. It gets recirculated — in a damaged, more carcinogenic form. And that's just the beginning of what a dysbiotic gut does to your hormones. Dr. Terri sits back down with board-certified endocrinologist Dr. Cassie Smith, whose new book on the gut-hormone connection is already an Amazon bestseller, to pull back the curtain on the twenty to thirty percent of women who do everything right and still don't get better. The problem isn't the hormone. The problem is the gut that can't process it. This episode is for every woman who has been told her labs are "normal" while she's living with brain fog, mood swings, breast tenderness, constipation, and a body that feels like it's working against her. What you'll discover: Why your gut contains 100x more DNA than the rest of your body — and what that means for your health The "Saran wrap" explanation of estrogen metabolism and what happens when bad gut bacteria poke holes in it Why giving someone more estrogen when their gut is inflamed just creates more side effects — not better results How constipation and breast cancer are more connected than any oncologist is telling you The medications your provider may be prescribing that are quietly destroying your gut microbiome — including antacids, statins, SSRIs, and oral contraceptives Why hormones can be "present in the blood" but completely unable to enter your cells — and what's locking the door The real drivers behind the rise in PCOS, endometriosis, and infertility in younger women What your morning routine, wearables, and news consumption may be doing to your cortisol — and downstream to your hormones Why an FSH under five may be the most important number in a woman's hormone picture — and how Dr. Terri uses it clinically The ten practical steps from Dr. Cassie's book to start cleaning up your gut today The bottom line: You are not Prozac-deficient. You are not Xanax-deficient. You are not Ambien-deficient. Fix the gut, and the hormones finally have somewhere to go.

    Your Labs Are Normal But You Ache and Feel Tired All The Time?

    Millions of people leave their doctor's office with "normal" bloodwork — and still feel terrible. Fatigued, foggy, anxious, in pain. If that's you, Dr. Terri has a message: your labs aren't lying, but the reference ranges might be. In this solo episode, Dr. Terri breaks down exactly why the standard of care is failing patients, how clinical reference ranges have quietly shifted to accommodate a sicker and sicker population, and what comprehensive, preventative testing actually looks like — including a full list of labs you can bring to your next appointment. If you've been dismissed, minimized, or told to just get older gracefully — this one is for you. Labs Dr. Terri recommends asking your provider for: Thyroid TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) Free T3 Free T4 Reverse T3 TPO Antibodies (Thyroid Peroxidase) Hormones Testosterone (men and women) Estrogen DHEA FSH (Follicle Stimulating Hormone) LH (Luteinizing Hormone) Progesterone (especially if dealing with infertility or irregular cycles) 4–5 Point Salivary Cortisol Panel Metabolic Fasting Insulin (optimal: 9–12) Hemoglobin A1C Full Lipid Panel with particle size and ApoLipoprotein analysis (NMR panel or Cleveland Clinic panel recommended) CRP (C-Reactive Protein) — inflammatory marker Nutrients Vitamin D (optimal: 60–100) Vitamin B12 (optimal: 800+) Ferritin / Iron stores (optimal: 70–150) RBC Magnesium (red blood cell level — not serum) Omega-3 Index (omega-3 to omega-6 ratio) Gut GI Map Test Your symptoms are real. Your body is sending a signal. Dr. Terri gives you the roadmap to finally get the answers you deserve.

    Still Staring At The Ceiling at 2 AM? A Sleep Expert Explains Why

    Your child's "ADHD," your brain fog, your hormone imbalances — they may all trace back to one root cause that almost nobody is checking. And it starts with how your face grew. This episode is for anyone who has been told their sleep test came back "normal" but still wakes up exhausted — and especially for parents watching their kids struggle with hyperactivity, behavioral issues, or restless nights. If you've handed a child a melatonin gummy and wondered whether there's a better answer, this conversation is for you. Dr. Terri sits down with Adam, CEO and founder of Rebus Health, a multidisciplinary sleep wellness center built on the radical premise that the question isn't just how you're sleeping — it's why you're not. Adam's team brings together sleep specialists, airway dentists, and functional medicine providers under one roof to get to the anatomical, hormonal, and systemic root causes of sleep-disordered breathing in adults and children alike. What you'll discover: Why the standard sleep apnea test misses the majority of women and why a "normal" result doesn't mean you don't have a problem (~24:31) The critical link between sleep deprivation and hormone disruption — and why optimizing hormones alone may not be enough (~24:31) What brain fog, daytime fatigue, and decreased executive function really signal — and the long-term cognitive consequences of leaving them unaddressed (~18:09) How wearables like the Oura Ring can be genuinely useful — and when they're creating unnecessary anxiety (~27:22) The truth about melatonin, CBD, THC, and sleep gummies: what the research actually shows, and why children should not be taking melatonin at all (~30:41) The shocking pre-industrial shift in facial anatomy — and how processed food, formula feeding, and modern orthodontics are narrowing our airways and setting our children up for a lifetime of sleep problems (~37:45) Why 78% of kids diagnosed with ADHD also have an underlying sleep disturbance — and why no one is connecting the dots (~41:03) The tongue tie and lip tie epidemic: why early release matters, why it fell out of practice, and what proper intervention actually looks like at every age (~44:26) The bottom line: sleep disturbances are not a minor inconvenience — they are a root cause of metabolic disease, cardiovascular risk, cognitive decline, and behavioral disorders. The earlier you intervene, the more you can change the trajectory. -- The Dr. Terri Show is presented by Evexias Health Solutions.

    93. Why There Are No Men Anymore, And What Women Are Missing

    ou've said it. You've heard it. Maybe your daughter said it at dinner last week: "There are just no men anymore. They're all boys." But what if the problem isn't men — it's that nobody ever taught us how they actually work? In this episode, Dr. Terri sits down with researcher and author Alison Armstrong for one of the most important conversations you'll hear about relational health. Alison has spent 30 years studying men — their stages of development, how testosterone literally shapes their brain, why they go quiet, why they disappear into focus, and what women do (often without realizing it) that brings out the worst in them instead of the best. Dr. Terri ties it directly to what she sees every day in practice: patients who finally have their hormones optimized, their energy back, their libido restored — and now they're stepping back into relationships with the same blind spots they always had. This conversation changes that. What you'll discover: The four stages of male development — and how to recognize which one you're dealing with Why testosterone creates single focus (and what it looks like when a man "disappears") The difference between procreate, protect, and provide — and why it explains almost everything How women unconsciously turn princes into frogs (and how to stop) Why your words — not just your tone — produce completely different responses in men How to spot the man within the stage, even when he looks like a boy This one is worth sharing. And it's just the beginning — Dr. Terri and Alison are going deeper in future episodes. ---------------------------------------------------------------- The Dr. Terri Show is presented by Evexias Health Solutions.

    92. The New Food Pyramid: What They Got Right, What's Still Wrong, and What You Should Actually Be Eating

    The USDA just updated the food pyramid — and the nutrition world has opinions.But before you celebrate or complain, Dr. Terri sits down with functional nutritionist Elizabeth DiMeo to actually break it down: what changed, why it changed, what they got right, and what's still missing from the conversation.Spoiler: the low-fat era did more damage than we realized. And most Americans are still paying for it. What you'll discover: Why the war on saturated fat led directly to the seed oil crisis — and why your LDL isn't the enemy you think it is What "Franken foods" are and why they're quietly fueling inflammation, obesity, and chronic disease The real reason the food pyramid matters: it drives what your kids eat at school Why the Mediterranean diet keeps winning — and how to actually apply it to your life How to train your kids' palates before Big Food does it for you Simple, practical strategies for eating whole foods without overhauling your entire life This isn't about being on a diet. It's about understanding what real food is — and why getting back to basics might be the most powerful health decision you make this year. --- The Dr. Terri Show is presented by EVEXIAS Health Solutions.

    91. Medical Freedom, the Wellness Boom, and the End of Sick Care as We Know It

    Find an EvexiPel provider near you: https://www.evexipel.com/find-a-provider/ --- Why the Healthcare System Has No Financial Incentive to Make You Well The United States spends more on healthcare than any country on earth — $4.9 trillion annually. And we rank second to last in actual health outcomes among all developed nations. That's not a coincidence. In this conversation, Dr. Terri sits down with her husband and EVEXIAS co-founder Dan DeNeui for one of their most candid, wide-ranging discussions yet. From the exploding wellness industry to the pharmaceutical lobby's quiet war on compounding pharmacies, to an 81-year-old woman whose rapid cognitive decline traced directly back to a statin nobody should have prescribed — this episode pulls back the curtain on a system that profits from keeping people sick. This one is for anyone who has ever felt like the healthcare system is working against them. Because in a lot of ways, it is. What you'll discover: Why the U.S. wellness industry jumped from $9 billion to $2 trillion in just three years — and what that signals [13:02] The statin story that every adult child of an aging parent needs to hear [17:13] Why pharmaceutical companies are sending cease and desist letters to clinicians prescribing legal compounded medications [45:31] How cholesterol reference ranges have been quietly lowered decade after decade — and why [19:40] Why 90% of supplements sold at retail either don't contain what they claim or are contaminated with mold and mycotoxins [30:40] What medical freedom actually means — and the insidious ways it's being stripped without anyone noticing [44:15] Why EVEXIAS provider trainings are maxed out every single month and what that says about where medicine is heading [05:27] The one thing both sides of the political aisle can agree on — if they're willing to set the labels aside [42:03] The bottom line: People are waking up. Clinicians are waking up. And the system is running out of ways to keep the truth quiet.
