Why is a woman's cycle important? Integrative Nutrition Coach and HTMA practitioner Barbara Madimenos was faced with that question when she was diagnosed with osteoporosis at age 25. She talks about how she healed herself, how she hasn't met one woman that hasn't had an irregular cycle, and the importance of balancing your minerals to regulate your hormones.
We talk about zinc and copper balance, estrogen excess and low progesterone, endometriosis, the power of coffee enemas, why she likes astrology, the best way to heal after taking birth control, coffee consumption tips, hair shedding mitigation, high prolactin solutions, how to recover from IUD use 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.

The Oligoscan test uses the science of spectrophotometry to see the absorption and reflection of light from vitamins, minerals and heavy metals stored in the tissue of the palm of your hand. If it sounds too good to be true, you'll be surprised to hear the legitimate science behind it from the son of one of the original global distributors of Oligoscan, Jeff Lioon.
He breaks down how the technology works in this show but the majority of it is focused on deciphering the test itself and describing all of the complex interactions between our environmental toxins, diet, lifestyle habits, and how those affect our vitamin and mineral balance. 
We talk about the relationship between iodine and fluoride, why kryptopyrroluria is a big deal, how we get copper toxic, the difference between oligoscan and other tests, what low vitamin B9 means, the silica and aluminum connection, what high antimony means, what high gadolinium usually means, where antimony is coming from in our environment, the excretor theory, and trends that hes seen in the over 1500 scans he's done on clients.

When people in the natural health community hear the term "Transhumanism" there is a knee-jerk emotional reaction, and some of that feeling is justified. Many of the big tech giants that have been censoring alternative perspectives are also heavily involved in the development of artificial intelligence, augmented reality and virtual reality systems.
Zoltan Istvan ran for president under the Transhumanist Party and drove the "Immortality Bus" all around the United States with the goal of spreading awareness of the importance of shifting our focus away from fighting wars to using science and technology to prevent and reverse disease and even solve aging.
In this episode he talks about: what the transhumanist wager is, his thoughts on ChatGPT, the replacement of jobs and potentially human relationships by humanoid robot artificial intelligence, the dishwashing robot that just came out, dystopian AI movies, solar cars, overpopulation, Neuralink, his recommendations for being healthy, thoughts on alcohol, and more.

What are the things to look for when shopping for an air filtration unit? Does the company use flashy words like "ultra" in front of their filtration media to make it sound better than it is? Do you know what the four grades of filtery efficiency is? Are higher grades always better or can they be worse for your situation? Are stand alone air filtration units even the highest choice for your situation? Did you know that your HVAC system moves 30 to 40 times more air than your $1000 HEPA filtration unit? 
David Milburn of HypoAllergenic Air joins me for the first time since 2019 (my first podcast episode) to talk about all of the dirty secrets in the air filtration industry. I am passionate about this topic because I see many parallels between the air filter and water filter marketing tactics. There are lots of razzle and dazzle claims without much substance behind them.
