The Crazy Thing Marriage Does to a Man's Testosterone with Dr. John Gray
When the book Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus was published in 1992, nobody could have predicted it would sell tens of millions of copies in more than 50 languages. Most people picked it up looking for communication advice. Its author, Dr. John Gray, has spent the decades since arriving at a different conclusion. The reason men and women struggle to understand each other runs deeper than how they talk. It runs through their hormones. At 74, John is living proof of his own thesis. His testosterone is higher now than it was in his 20s. He produces almost no cortisol. He's been married twice, raised children, and built a 40-year career as a relationship counselor and author of more than 20 books. The science, he says, has finally caught up with everything he was already teaching.

Restoring the Cellular Energy We Lose With Age With Baran Dilaver
For a lot of people, diagnosis feels like the beginning of a health problem. However, most of the time it's closer to the middle. Type 2 diabetes can be developing at the cellular level for a decade or more before a doctor catches it. Brain changes caused by Alzheimer's can begin decades before the first symptom shows up. By the time those problems become visible, the body may have spent years moving in the wrong direction. Yet our healthcare system is largely built to respond after symptoms appear, with far less attention paid to what is happening upstream. Baran Dilaver, co-founder and CEO of Wonderfeel Biosciences, believes many answers lie much deeper, at the cellular level. In this episode, he unpacks what happens to NAD as we age, how CD38 and gut health may influence its decline, and why NMN works differently from taking NAD directly.

Acne After 30 Is Your Body Asking for Help| Katie Stewart
Skin is the largest and fastest-growing organ in the human body. That's why it can tell you a lot about what's going on beneath the surface. Breakouts, redness, acne, premature aging. These can be signs that something else is going on in the body, with the effects simply showing up on your skin. Katie Stewart is a registered holistic nutritionist and functional diagnostic nutrition practitioner who works exclusively on chronic adult acne. Since 2016, she's worked with more than 3,000 clients across 15 countries and reviewed over 4,000 functional lab panels. That experience has only reinforced the belief she had from the beginning: clearing someone's skin isn't enough. Her work is about figuring out what caused the problem in the first place and then helping clients address it.

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

Your Thyroid Might Be the Reason You Can't Lose Weight With Dr. Amie Hornaman
Right now, one in five American households has someone on a GLP-1. Sure, Ozempic and Mounjaro have proven effective in the short run. They do help people lose weight. However, the medication might only be treating the symptom while the real problem goes untreated. And for millions of people, that problem is a broken thyroid. The thyroid controls almost everything. Metabolism, energy, mood, digestion, sleep, hair, and how the body handles stress. When it stops working properly, weight starts creeping up, energy drops, hair thins, and the fog rolls in. And yet, when most people ask their doctor about it, they're told their lab results are normal and to keep doing what they're doing. One of the loudest voices calling this out is Dr. Amie Hornaman. She's the founder of the Advanced Thyroid and Hormone Clinic, host of The Thyroid Fixer podcast, and the author of a brand new book called The Thyroid Fix. Amie has spent her career helping women realize that normal and optimal are two very different things. You can buy her book at https://thyroidfixbook.com/ or on Amazon.

The Four Pillars Behind a Cancer Recovery With Rob René
It all started with a small, seemingly harmless mole on his ankle. Like most, Rob René ignored it. Unfortunately, he kept ignoring it for way too long. By the time he had it checked, it had turned into stage III melanoma and spread to his lymphatic system. If you weren't aware, Rob is the founder of Exodus Strong, a former Division 1 runner, and a returning guest on the show. When he was on last, our focus was fatigue and faith. This time, the conversation is even more serious. The melanoma was only the beginning of Rob's journey. He walks Mark through the heart condition that the diagnosis uncovered. Then, the surgery that nearly killed him ended up saving his life. And, most importantly, the four-pillar recovery system he built after coming out the other side. He calls it the Light Code, and it's also the basis of his upcoming book. You can join the wait list at https://lightcodebook.com/.
