You've Been Detoxing Wrong This Whole Time ft. Dr. Rahm, Dr. Kim & Dr. Peatross | TUH #289
Most people grab a binder or start a cleanse and go straight to war on mold, Lyme, and heavy metals. Doing it in that order can make you far sicker than the toxins ever did. In this one, we break down why your drainage has to open first, the quiet signs it's blocked, and why the real problem almost never shows up on a 'normal' bloodwork panel. If you've been chasing symptoms no test can explain, t
288. Koa Smith: You're Facing Your Fear the Wrong Way. A Top Big-Wave Surfer's Method
You think some people are just born without fear, but my guest Koa Smith has spent 15 years paddling into waves big enough to kill him, and he'll tell you the opposite: fear never leaves, the whole game is what you do when it shows up. After a reef injury knocked him unconscious underwater and left him eight months numb, depressed, and unable to get a straight answer from a doctor, he clawed his w
287. Live at the Southern Utah Holistic Health Summit 2026
For 22 years, I predicted death for life insurance companies. One pattern showed up in file after file: most "genetic" conditions have no gene behind them. Ask your doctor which gene causes your blood pressure, your autoimmune condition, or your ADHD, and most can't answer, because it doesn't exist. What actually runs in your family is a nutrient deficiency, not a disease, and once your body gets
286. Dr. Jordan Metzl: Why Movement Is a First-Line Drug for Depression
I sat down with Dr. Jordan Metzl, a sports-medicine physician who's convinced that the reason most of us can't stay consistent isn't discipline or knowledge, it's motivation, and he says you can actually engineer it by "lowering the cost to act." We get into exercise as a literal medicine that would beat almost any drug if it came in a pill, why fun is the real holy grail of compliance, and how mo
285. Your Skin Tells the Truth in Ways You Never Expected - Dr. Vali, Dr. Barbara Sturm, & Danica Patrick
You've been told your skin is aging because of what's happening on the outside, but I think the real fire is inflammation coming from the inside. I'm not saying the sun is the enemy; I'm saying the processed seed oils on your plate are feeding the problem far more than the sun ever could. Get the inside right, support your barrier instead of assaulting it, and your skin will do what it was built t
284. Dr. Bill Rawls: The Doctor Who Got Sick and Discovered What Doctors Miss
You've been told your fatigue, brain fog, and aching joints are just getting older. My guest today says that's the wrong answer and he'd know. Dr. Bill Rawls is a fourth-generation physician whose body broke down so badly at 50 he could barely walk across a room, until he found what was actually driving it: stealth microbes hiding dormant inside his cells, invisible on every standard lab.

283. Turmeric vs Fish Oil for Inflammation: Which Is Better?
Your fatigue, achy joints, and bad gut days might not be aging; they could be signs you're quietly inflamed. In this episode, I break down how to tell if chronic inflammation has set in, why it's driving some of the most serious diseases we face, and the simple, low-cost changes I use to cool it down: diet, sleep, stress, hydration, cold showers, red light, and a few key supplements. There's one d
282. Dr. Taryn Marie Stejskal: You're Not Resilient. You're Just Coping. Here’s 5 Practices of Highly Resilient People
Roughly 82% of autoimmune diseases show up in women, and the cause may not be what you think. In this episode, I sit down with resilience researcher Dr. Taryn Marie to unpack how the stress you hide rewires your nervous system, why "toughing it out" is actually the opposite of resilience, and the three questions I'm now asking myself every morning. She also opens up about the 20-year secret she hi
281. Dr. Phil Reveals The Exercise That Rewires Your Brain in Minutes
In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Phil to unpack the simple habits behind five decades of work in human behavior, why anxiety is fear without a real threat, the four questions he asks himself to stay honest, and the one exercise he says rewires your brain. But there's one line he keeps coming back to that changes how you see everything: there will never be another you.

280. Will Harlow: STOP Losing Muscle After 50 (Do This Instead)
A 30-second test with nothing but a chair can tell you whether you'll be independent or dependent at 80. Most people score lower than they expect and don't find out until something goes wrong. Here's the stat that stopped me cold: for older adults, the hip often breaks before the fall. The bone gives out first. The fall is what happens next. And most doctors never mention it.

279. There's Microplastics Already Inside Your Body. Here’s How to Detox Microplastics Fast
You might think microplastics are an ocean problem, but research suggests you're carrying roughly a credit card's worth of plastic inside your body right now, circulating through your bloodstream and settling into your organs, your brain, and even reproductive tissue. In this episode, I break down how plastic gets in and walk you through my 5-step protocol to lower your total burden: filtering you
278. Dr. Jason Snibbe: On Why Meniscus Surgery Backfires, Prehab, Peptides, & Robotic Joint Surgery
Most people are told a torn meniscus needs surgery to "clean it out". But in this episode, orthopedic surgeon Dr. Jason Snibbe tells me that roughly 30% of those patients end up needing a full knee replacement within three to six months, because the cleanout itself is trauma that speeds up the joint's breakdown. Instead, he uses a simple platelet-rich plasma injection that gets many patients 70 t

I've brought together some of my best conversations on menopause and perimenopause with Dr. Jessica Shepard, Dr. Vonda Wright, and my wife Sage.

276. Dr. John Kim: On Mold Toxicity, Mycotoxins, Heavy Metals, & Cellular Detox
You might think that once you tear out the moldy drywall and move into a clean house, your body finally gets to heal, but in this episode, Dr. John Kim and I get into why so many people do everything right and still can't shake the brain fog, the fatigue, and the gut chaos. The answer lives somewhere most testing never looks: a stuck "cell danger response," where your cells stay locked in defense
275. Brandon Sawalich: On The Science of Hearing Loss, Dementia Prevention & AI Hearing Technology
One in six teenagers right now has measurable hearing loss, and almost nobody is talking about it. In this conversation with Brandon Sawalich of Starkey Hearing Technologies, we pull back the curtain on what Brandon calls a “quiet pandemic” driven by earbuds, concerts, and a generation blasting sound directly into their cochlea. If you’re still pounding music through your earbuds on a daily basis,
274. Dr. Courtney Conley: Dementia, 4,000 Steps, Big Toe & The 6th Vital Sign
I sat down with Dr. Courtney Conley and what she told me stopped me cold…your walking speed can predict dementia up to seven years before the first cognitive symptom appears, which is why scientists are arguing it should be added to blood pressure and temperature as the sixth vital sign. We got into the mechanism behind it: BDNF, hippocampal neurogenesis, and why 4,000 steps a day can cut dementia
273. Anthony Geisler: UFC, Pilates, $8T Longevity & ULC
You wouldn't look at Anthony Geisler today and guess he was 145 pounds at six feet tall, a burned-out kid working too hard, eating too little, and sleeping less. Then a doctor gave him three pieces of advice, and Anthony drove home and joined a boxing gym that same day. That moment is where this episode starts, and it's why he and I ended up partners in the Ultimate Longevity Centers two decades l
272. Garry Lineham "Human Garage": Fascia, Stored Trauma, C-Sections & Leann Rimes Release
You're stretching wrong, and I didn't believe it either until Garry Lineham put his hands on me and corrected a decades-old flat arch, a torn bicep tendon limitation, and my hip rotation in 5 minutes! In this episode, the founder of Human Garage walks me through why every time you stretch a muscle your nervous system dumps adrenaline for four hours, how he reverse-engineered the answer in 17 month
271. Dr. Stephanie Haridopolos: On Screen Harms in Kids & the Surgeon General's New Advisory
Since 2010, math scores in 13-year-olds have dropped 14%, reading has dropped 7%, and by 2050, 40% of kids are projected to have myopia and the Surgeon General's office just connected that curve to the screen in your child's hand. Today, I sat down with Dr. Stephanie Haridopolos, Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary of Health at HHS, to walk through the new advisory on screen harms, the 5-D framew
270. Dr. Tania Dempsey: Mast Cells, Chronic Fatigue, & Hidden Inflammation
Up to 1 in 5 people may have this condition and never know it and the diagnoses they've been handed instead, from PCOS to IBS to chronic fatigue, may all be pointing at the same hidden cause. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Tania Dempsey, Johns Hopkins-trained internist and one of the leading researchers on Mast Cell Activation Syndrome, who tells me that 100% of her PCOS patients test positi

The quickest way to kill a dream is to achieve it. That's how Mark Manson opened our conversation, and it hit me harder than I expected.

There's one molecule inside every cell of your body that you can't live without and by middle age, your production of it has dropped substantially from where it was in your twenties.

263. Wim Hof: On Breathwork Science, Cold Exposure, Immune Control, & Human Potential
The autonomic nervous system was supposed to be beyond your control, medicine said so for decades. Wim Hof proved them wrong, and the data is now published in some of the most prestigious peer-reviewed journals on the planet. In this episode, I’m with the “Iceman” to unpack how breathwork triggers a respiratory alkalosis that activates the adrenal axis, suppresses cytokine storms, and enhances gly
262. What is Looksmaxxing? The Science Behind Improving Your Appearance Without Surgery
The looksmaxxing community got one thing profoundly right: your appearance is a function of biology, not fate. Your muscles and your skin are in constant biological communication, your collagen is either being rebuilt or destroyed based on what you eat and drink every single day, and chronic low-grade inflammation from processed food is showing up on your face long before it shows up on any lab pa

The most powerful business tool in the world isn’t capital, technology, or talent, it’s a relationship.
