  • Chapter markers are off

    It would be nice if the chapter markers were added after the ads because it seems they were added before the ad ads are added, and so the chapter markers are not accurate.

  • We are Bio-individuals

    This information is interesting and there are some good points; however speaking as if the same nutrition advice is right for every BODY is misleading. There are nuances to every point made about food - fruits, veggies, grains, animal protein, etc and every individual needs to understand what works for their own body. Intermittent fasting and butter in the coffee is not a solution for weight loss or optimal health for every person. As a very smart doctor once said, “You can’t fool Mother Nature... more

  • Too much Dave!

    I love this series but sometimes there’s just too much talking from Dave. I get that he’s an expert in his own right, but sometimes the person who he’s interviewing, doesn’t get a word in! EG the last episode I listened to about autism with Tracy Slepcevic probably would have been better if we started with her story and her journey with her son, but it sort of got thrown in at the end. Sometimes it feels a little muddled.

    Will still keep listening and following and supporting though because thi... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Biohacking Secrets of Dubai | Dr. Elie Abirached : 1489
Q: What challenges do you face when treating patients in Dubai given the extreme heat and light exposure?
The core approach is optimizing lifestyle and environment. Focus on caregiving around timings of sun exposure, adjusting routines to the local climate, and controlling the indoor environment—like room temperature, darkness, air quality—and aligning activities with circadian rhythms.
How to Get Microplastics Out of Your Body | Mara Labs : 1478
Q: Is there evidence BrocElite affects BPA or heavy metals excretion?
Yes, BrocElite engages all three major detox routes, increasing glucuronidation and glutathione pathways, which supports excretion of BPA metabolites and heavy metals.
How to Get Microplastics Out of Your Body | Mara Labs : 1478
Q: Why combine broccoli sulforaphane with watercress derivative PITC?
PITC from watercress synergistically enhances NRF2 induction, boosting detox pathway activity beyond the sum of its parts, leading to stronger upregulation of the body's cleanup systems.
How to Get Microplastics Out of Your Body | Mara Labs : 1478
Q: What is the mechanism by which BrocElite helps excrete microplastics?
BrocElite's sulforaphane triggers lysosomal dumping (lysosomal surface translocation), releasing the contents of the lysosome so toxins like microplastics can be excreted, essentially unclogging the cellular waste disposal system.
Peptide Power Without Needles: Smarter Dosing for Longevity | Justin Kirkland : 1477
Q: What should consumers know about peptide dosing and concentration?
Dosing depends on precise concentration and the amount of solvent used; mismatches in concentration across vendors can lead to under- or overdosing.
