Compounds that have long been considered recreational drugs by conventional standards are finally being recognized through science as powerful tools for overcoming hard-to-treat health issues like PTSD, depression, addiction, and more. Today on The Doctor’s Farmacy, I’m excited to talk to my good friend and one of the world’s most renowned mycologists, Paul Stam...

However, experiencing too much stress for too long, creates an intense demand for hormones like cortisol and adrenaline to be released. This can lead to adrenal fatigue, or adrenal dysfunction, which could result in burnout, fatigue, weight gain, and so much more. In today’s episode, I talk with Drs. Elizabeth Boham, Izabella Wentz, and Rangan Chatterjee about the link ...

When it comes to overall health and weight loss, there’s an excess of advice out there. Unfortunately, most of it is misguided, outdated, and scientifically disproven. I’ve dedicated my career to finding and telling the truth about what makes us sick and fat and, most importantly, to the study of food as medicine and the science of creating health. In today’s episode of my series I’m calling Health Bites, ...

Our diets are the main driver of the chronic disease epidemic we are experiencing today. But food is also the most powerful medicine available to heal chronic diseases. The food we eat literally serves as information, instructions, or code that controls almost every function of the body—including our hormones, appetite, brain chemistry, immune system, gene expression, and even the microbiome. Toda...

Mitochondria are the energy powerhouses of each cell in the body. Unfortunately, our modern diet and lifestyle compromise our mitochondria, which results in suboptimal function of the brain and other organs, reduced energy levels, and even cancer. Luckily, there are science-based practices like cold water therapy that we can do to improve the mitochondrial function of our cells, reduce inflammation, support...
Aug 28, 2023•1 hr 1 min•Ep 770•Transcript available on Metacast This episode is brought to you by Rupa Health, AG1, and Super Simple Grassfed Protein. It’s time to think about immunity in a new way. There’s been a lot of focus recently on “boosting” your immune system. However, boosting immunity merely exaggerates all the defects of an aging immune system, whereas rejuvenation reboots immunity from your cells up. Rejuvenation is way more foundational and longer lasting than a basic boost because it uses your built-in programming to rebalance and optimize tha...

Heart disease is still the number one killer in the world, yet most people don’t actually understand what markers put them most at risk. The general consensus is there are two types of cholesterol—the good and the bad—the good is thought to be high-density lipoproteins or HDL, and the bad is low-density lipoproteins or LDL. But we now know from research that it's much more complicated than that—there are actually ...

Fatty liver is a dangerous yet misunderstood disease that is growing more and more common, and its effects are numerous. Fatty liver happens when fat replaces your liver cells and thereby compromises its important functions, thus increasing inflammation in the body. Surprisingly, it is not fat that causes a fatty liver, but sugar and starch. In today’s episode, I talk with Dr. Elizabeth Boham, Dr. Robe...
Aug 21, 2023•1 hr•Ep 767•Transcript available on Metacast This episode is brought to you by Rupa University, Pique, and Super Simple Grassfed Protein. Our gut bacteria regulate many of our bodily functions, from creating vitamins to regulating our immune system, our brain function, and of course, our metabolism and weight. They are critical to our long-term health. One such bacteria is Akkermansia muciniphila, which accounts for 1%–5% of our gut microbiome—or at least it’s supposed to! In today’s episode of my series I’m calling Health Bites, I dive in...
Aug 18, 2023•29 min•Ep 766•Transcript available on Metacast This episode is brought to you by Rupa Health, ButcherBox, ARMRA Colostrum, and Apollo. So many of us struggle with relationships. In fact, our relationships determine the quality of our life more than anything else. Unfortunately, the relationships many of us grew up around–and might consider “normal”--are, in fact, dysfunctional, creating a negative cycle we often don’t even realize we’re in. Today on The Doctor’s Farmacy, I’m excited to talk to Nedra Tawwab about how to identify dysfunctional...

We all know that life gets busy, but to stay healthy, you have to have a set of nonnegotiables that you make time for daily. Prioritizing food as medicine, establishing a consistent sleep routine, and cultivating community can all offer immense benefits, not only for your quality of life but your overall health and well-being too. In today’s episode, I talk with Dhru Purohit and Radha Agrawal about...

One key area of focus on your health you may not have thought to pay attention to is the dangers of advanced glycation end products. In fact, you may not have even been aware of their existence at all. Advanced glycation end products (AGEs for short) are compounds that can form when you cook food at high temperatures. Depending on your diet and overall health, they can start to build up in your body, which can be a big problem since they've ...
Aug 11, 2023•15 min•Ep 763•Transcript available on Metacast This episode is brought to you by Rupa Health, BiOptimizers, Sensate, and Zero Acre. Hidden inflammation is at the root of all chronic illness—conditions like heart disease, obesity, diabetes, dementia, depression, and cancer. So if inflammation is at the root of most modern diseases, how do we find the causes and get the body back in balance? Today on The Doctor’s Farmacy, I’m excited to talk to Dr. Shilpa Ravella about what is driving our epidemic of inflammation and inflammaging, why it plagu...
Aug 09, 2023•1 hr 7 min•Ep 762•Transcript available on Metacast This episode is brought to you by AG1, Pendulum, BiOptimizers, and Super Simple Grassfed Protein. If we were to identify one big lever to pull to improve global health, create economic abundance, restore environmental health, and reverse climate change, it would be transforming our entire food system. The policies and industry interests that drive our current system must change to fix our broken food system from field to fork and beyond. In today’s episode, I talk with Calley Means, Robby Sansom...

There are a number of insults that attack our guts on a regular basis. Some of them, like our diet, we have control over, but others, like environmental toxins, will find us whether we want them to or not (although there are ways to limit our exposure). This has led to an onslaught of a condition known as “leaky gut,” which likely affects all of us to some degree. In today’s episode of my serie...
Aug 04, 2023•19 min•Ep 760•Transcript available on Metacast This episode is brought to you by Rupa Health, Mitopure, Apollo, and Cozy Earth. We live in a country that claims to be based on science, goodwill, and policies intended to help people. But in reality, these things are often heavily influenced and manipulated by industry, particularly Big Food, Big Pharma, and Big Ag, which have corrupted many institutions, politicians, professional associations, and research entities. And it has, unfortunately, led to mass confusion and illness in the public. T...

In an ideal world where soils are rich and the air and water are pure, we would be able to get all of the vitamins and nutrients we need through diet alone. However, for most, that’s just not practical in our toxic world. In today’s episode, I talk with Dr. Michael Murray, Fred Provenza, Dan Kittredge, and Jeff Tkach about the symbiotic relationship between plants and soil and why supplements may be necessary to make up ...

Unfortunately, while almost never diagnosed, vitamin D deficiency affects over half of the population and has been linked to many cancers, high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, depression, fibromyalgia, chronic muscle pain, bone loss, and autoimmune diseases like multiple sclerosis. Vitamin D is almost totally absent from our food supply, and vitamin D deficiencies are the hidden cause of so much suffering—yet it is so easy to tr...

There is powerful science behind how our beliefs inform our genetic expression. It’s not our genes alone that dictate our health outcomes, rather it’s the biology of belief that determines our destiny. Today on The Doctor’s Farmacy, I’m excited to talk to Dr. Bruce Lipton about how exactly our thoughts determine our genetic expression, and how we can influence our health using our minds. Dr. Bruce Lipton is a stem cel...

Not only is protein a vital component of healthy skeletal muscle, but it also is an essential lever in weight loss, stabilizing blood sugar, and reversing metabolic syndrome. And when it comes to animal-based protein, we can’t just say all meat is good or no meat is good; it’s a matter of what types and sources of proteins you’re eating and what the rest of your diet looks like too. In today’s episode, I talk with Dr. Gab...

Mercury enters our bodies from many different sources, including mercury vapors in ambient air, ingestion via drinking water, fish, dental amalgams, occupational exposures, home exposures, over-the-counter products, and more. There’s no doubt about it: mercury is the most alarming, disease-causing source of environmental toxicity that I see daily in my practice. In today’s episode of my series I’m calling Health Bites, I share my own exper...

As we age, our body’s natural antioxidant defenses slow down, driving chronic inflammation and diminishing overall health. To combat inflammaging, scientists have been studying compounds that can reduce inflammation and oxidative stress in the body. One such compound is astaxanthin, a powerful, naturally occurring antioxidant with profound anti-inflammatory health benefits. Today on The Doctor’s Farmacy, I’m ...
Jul 19, 2023•51 min•Ep 751•Transcript available on Metacast This episode is brought to you by Paleovalley, AG1, and Bioptimizers. Difficult times and experiences happen to all of us. They can often leave us not feeling good enough, not feeling worthy of love, not being able to trust others, and more. And it can be easy to put self-care on the back burner, even when we know we need to face our struggles. Yet, when we make the time to be radically honest with ourselves, sit with our discomforts, and take action to change our state, we open up the door to h...

Your gut houses 500 species and three pounds of bacteria. Too many bad gut flora (including parasites and yeast) or not enough good ones can spell serious trouble for your health. This is why if you want to fix your health, start with your gut. In today’s episode of my series I’m calling Health Bites, I talk about how you can heal many skin issues by changing your diet, optimizing your nutri...

We often hear the argument that in order to solve climate change we need to stop eating meat, but the truth is that animal agriculture done right is actually part of the solution. On today’s episode, I’m excited to talk to Robby Sansom and Taylor Collins about the nuances of regeneratively raised meat and how it can reverse climate change, support better health for those who eat it, and provide natural and carin...

Women in midlife often experience night sweats, mood swings, and other uncomfortable and difficult symptoms resulting from hormonal shifts. This is also often a time of significant stressors, as many women are juggling parenting, a career, and even caring for elders. And contrary to popular belief, women cannot follow the same health and fitness protocols as men and expect to see the same results. In today’s episode, I...
