The Cookbook That Saved My Life

What if everything you've been taught about nutrition is not just wrong, but actively harming your health? Cary Kelly's story might make you question your most basic assumptions about food and wellness.

How to Survive The Holiday Air Travel

Holiday flights don’t have to flatten your energy or your immune system.

What If Sugar Wasn't Sweet?

Cravings aren’t just about weak will; they’re biology doing exactly what billions of food dollars engineered them to do. We sit down with Sander Brus to unpack how sweetness hijacks reward circuits, why kids are showing up with adult metabolic diseases, and what happens when you flip the switch on sweet taste itself. Sander takes us from his diagnostics background into the heart of metabolic health, explaining how sweet taste receptors (T1R2/T1R3) live on the tongue and in the gut, where the...

Keto for Cancer?

What if the real action in cancer isn’t in the genome, but upstream in the mitochondria and the metabolic “terrain” that shapes every signal your cells send and receive? We sit down with Dr Nasha Winters to rethink cancer as an ecologic disease and explore how shifting the terrain can change outcomes without rejecting standard care. We dig into why ketones are more than fuel. Nasha explains how a therapeutic ketotic state—reached through fasting, carb restriction, or exogenous support—can lo...

DMT: Death By Astonishment with Andrew Gallimore

Imagine your brain as a world-building engine that never shows you the thing-in-itself, only a model tuned for survival. Now imagine a molecule that doesn’t just bend that model but switches it to a fully formed, hyper-detailed reality populated by entities that seem to think, act, and sometimes deny you entry. That’s the claim at the heart of our conversation with computational neurobiologist and DMT researcher Andrew Gallimore, author of Death by Astonishment. We start by laying the ground...

The Skin Creme That Nearly Killed Me

A world champion athlete shouldn’t have to fight for the right diagnosis—yet Kelly Palace did, for years.

How to Fast Without Fasting

What if you could enjoy all the powerful health benefits of fasting without actually going hungry? Dr. Chris Rhodes, a biochemist with a PhD from UC Davis, has discovered a revolutionary approach that might make this possible. During this fascinating conversation, Dr. Rhodes explains how fasting triggers a remarkable survival response in our cells. After about 24 hours without food, our bodies deplete glycogen stores and enter "true fasting metabolism," activating anti-inflammatory pathways,...

Lasers vs Painkillers: Deep-dive into Photobiomodulation

Guest: Forrest Smith — serial founder bringing clinic-grade photobiomodulation to a safe, wearable form factor. Theme: Why dose and delivery matter more than raw wattage for red light therapy. Key takeaways Wavelengths that work: Deep red 660 nm (blood flow, NO release, shallow penetration) + 808 nm near-IR (deeper tissues/joints).Mechanisms: Hemoglobin photodissociates NO → vasodilation + better O₂ delivery; mitochondria’s cytochrome c oxidase bottleneck relieved → higher ATP output; downst...
