  • The Words You Use Are Shaping Your Body with JJ Virgin

    The Words You Use Are Shaping Your Body with JJ Virgin
    Aug 13 2026
    The words you use don't just describe your life. They shape it. And not in a self-help book kind of way. The nervous system reacts to language in real time. Say "duck" and the body flinches. Say "I am diabetic" enough times, and the body listens to that too. JJ Virgin has been making this point for years. She's a four-time New York Times bestselling author, a nutrition and fitness expert, and one of the most respected voices in the health space. But the full weight of what she was saying struck her after her 16-year-old son was hit by a car and ended up in a coma. Doctors gave him a fraction of a percent chance of surviving. JJ refused to accept it. What she did next, and what she believed about it, is the reason this conversation exists.

  • How Toxin Exposure Turns Into Chronic Disease with Dr. Thomas Levy

    How Toxin Exposure Turns Into Chronic Disease with Dr. Thomas Levy
    Jul 27 2026
    According to the CDC, chronic disease is now the leading cause of death worldwide, taking 41 million lives every year. In the US alone, over 60% of adults have at least one, and over 50% have two or more. Dr. Thomas Levy believes that every single one of those diagnoses points back to the same underlying cause. Dr. Levy is a board-certified cardiologist and attorney who spent 15 years in adult cardiology before he saw something in a dental office that changed the way he thought about disease. He watched severely ill patients recover after being given properly administered vitamin C, went into the published literature to understand why, and found decades of evidence hiding in plain sight. Since then, he has written 13 books on the subject and been inducted into the Orthomolecular Medicine Hall of Fame. Mark and Dr. Levy dig into oxidative stress, the toxin sources most people never think about, and why vitamin C matters more than any other supplement on the shelf.

  • Your Body Loses 90% of Stem Cells Before the Age of 40, Here's Why - Christian Drapeau

    Your Body Loses 90% of Stem Cells Before the Age of 40, Here's Why - Christian Drapeau
    Jul 16 2026
    Stem cells are our body's raw materials. You can look at them as your internal repair system. When you're sick or injured, stem cells help you recover as soon as possible. Unfortunately, by the age of 35, most people lose 90% of their stem cells. That's the reason people in their 40s stop bouncing back from injuries the way they used to, and the reason age-related disease shows up when it does. Christian Drapeau has spent 30 years studying that repair system. He's the founder and chief science officer of STEMREGEN, author of five books, and a researcher who has lectured in more than 50 countries. Christian and Mark get into the history of stem cell research and why the embryonic stem cell debate was mostly noise.
