Myers Detox Podcast

Heavy metals, chemicals, and hidden halogens are disrupting thyroid function and fueling Graves’ and Hashimoto’s. Millions struggle with weight gain, anxiety, fatigue, or unexplained symptoms, yet doctors often run only basic tests that miss the bigger picture.  Dr. Eric Osansky joins me to unpack how toxins affect thyroid hormones, why most thyroid disease is autoimmune in nature, and the natural approaches that can support healing. In this episode, you’ll hear why heavy metals and flame retardants are so destructive, the overlooked role of fluoride and other halogens in blocking iodine, and essential tests and nutrients every thyroid patient needs to know about.  Dr. Osansky shares his personal experience reversing Graves’ without surgery or radioactive iodine, and what he now teaches patients looking for real solutions beyond medication alone. This conversation could answer your questions about thyroid dysfunction, Graves’ disease, Hashimoto’s, or persistent hypothyroid symptoms.   "Mercury is toxic to the thyroid. It can disrupt the thyroid gland, causing hypothyroidism. But then also a lot of people don't realize that it can affect the gut microbiome." ~ Dr. Eric Osansky   In This Episode - Personal journey with Graves' disease - Hashimoto's vs Graves' vs hypothyroidism - Symptoms that signal thyroid dysfunction - How heavy metals disrupt thyroid function - How chemicals cause thyroid issues - Halogens and the link to iodine deficiency - Iodine supplementation controversy and protocols - Natural healing for Graves' disease and foods to avoid - Herbs and supplements for hyperthyroidism  - Hashimoto's treatment and recommended testing - Thyroid glandulars and hormone replacement -  Dr. Osansky's books about thyroid   Products & Resources Mentioned: Bon Charge Red Light Face Mask: Get 15% off sitewide at https://boncharge.com with code WENDY, plus free shipping and a 12-month warranty.

Every pet owner wants their furry family member to live a long, healthy life. But most don’t realize they’re unintentionally contributing to chronic illness by feeding kibble, skipping detox, and blindly following outdated vet protocols.  In this episode, I sat down with holistic veterinarian Dr. Marlene Siegel to uncover why nearly every pet today develops disease and what can be done about that.

There’s a reason more and more people are turning to intermittent fasting as a reset button for the body. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. David Jockers to unpack what might be the most underrated survival mechanism built into our cells: autophagy. It’s a cleanup crew that breaks down damaged mitochondria, clears out zombie cells, and even resets your gut microbiome. If your energy crashes midday, if your cravings hit hard at night, or your body feels inflamed and sluggish no matter what you eat, there’s a good chance your cells aren’t getting the cleanup time they desperately need. And that starts with insulin staying too high, too often. We talk about how to train your body to burn fat effortlessly, how long it takes to start getting results from fasting, and why most people are unknowingly blocking this cellular self-repair system. Dr. Jockers also shares how to make fasting easier and safer, especially if you’ve struggled with low energy or headaches. He also explains why you should consider binders during a fast, how to recognize when your mitochondria are stressed out, and the brain-boosting effects of ketones once you hit day three of a longer fast.   "Just like we talk about a vitamin D deficiency or a zinc deficiency, autophagy is like an essential nutrient. You have to go through it to be healthy." ~ Dr. David Jockers   In This Episode: - What is autophagy, and why is it essential? - How to start fasting - Tips for longer fasts and what to include - How ketones reduce inflammation and boost brain health - Are ketone supplements worth it? - Juice and bone broth fasting - Using binders and other protocols to manage detox symptoms during a fast - Fasting’s impact on gut microbiome diversity - The link between fasting, clearing of "zombie cells," and longevity   Products & Resources Mentioned: Conquering Chronic Inflammation Summit 2.0: Learn more here https://drtalks.com/summit/conquering-inflammation/  Bon Charge Red Light Face Mask: Use code WENDY to get 15% off at https://boncharge.com  Fresh-Pressed Olive Oil: Try a full-size $39 bottle for just $1 to cover shipping at https://getfreshwendy.com  Heavy Metals Quiz: Start at https://heavymetalsquiz.com   About Dr. David Jockers: Dr. David Jockers is a doctor of natural medicine and a world-renowned expert in metabolic health, fasting, and functional nutrition.

As it turns out, aging isn't just about wrinkles and gray hair. It’s about your immune system silently giving out years in advance. If you're dealing with chronic stress, sleep issues, inflammation, hormone shifts, or just feel like your body is aging faster than it should, there's a test that might explain exactly why and how to turn it around. I sat down with Nikolina Lauc, CEO of GlycanAge, to unpack the science of glycans—those powerful, complex sugars that serve as early warning signals for disease and inflammation. Nikolina shares how glycans can predict things like hypertension and rheumatoid arthritis years before they happen, how menopause accelerates aging by 10 years or more, why stress adds 15 years to your biological clock, and how hormone replacement, moderate exercise, and even switching from HIIT to yoga can roll your biological age backward. This is the kind of info that gives you back control of your health.   “We can predict hypertension six years ahead of time with 98% accuracy. We can predict rheumatoid arthritis 10 years ahead of time with 92% accuracy.” ~ Nikolina Lauc   In This Episode: - Backstory: What are glycans, and why should you measure them? - Research and predictive power of GlycanAge - What to expect from a GlycanAge test - Top factors that improve your biological age - The effects of stress on your biological clock - Exercise and its effects on aging - Key aging differences between men and women - Things to do if your biological age is high - How to get the GlycanAge test   Products & Resources Mentioned: GlycanAge Biological Age Test: You can get it from https://glycanage.com/price-and-plans?discount=MYERSv Puori PW1 Protein: Get 20% off with code WENDY at https://puori.com/wendy  Fresh-Pressed Olive Oil: Try a full-size $39 bottle for just $1 to cover shipping at https://getfreshwendy.com  Heavy Metals Quiz: Start at https://heavymetalsquiz.com    About Nikolina Lauc Nikolina Lauc is the co-founder and CEO of GlycanAge and has helped pioneer a revolutionary way to measure biological aging through glycans—complex carbohydrates that change with immune system wear and tear. Her father, a renowned glyco-biologist and the second most published scientist in the field, developed one of the first biomarkers of molecular aging. GlycanAge has since analyzed over 200,000 samples, more than 85% of all human glycan data globally. Nikolina is on a mission to make early detection and personalized prevention mainstream.

Some of the “normal” things we do to unwind are quietly wrecking our bodies, and alcohol might be at the top of that list. You might not realize how much the occasional glass of wine is disrupting your hormones, wrecking your sleep, and sabotaging your detox efforts until you take a closer look at the research. And once you hear what it’s doing to your thyroid, testosterone, liver, and brain chemistry, it’s hard to ignore. That’s why I asked Dr. Erika Schwartz—a pioneer in hormone health and founder of Evolved Science—to come break it all down. In this episode, Dr. Erika explains how alcohol impacts every single hormone in your body, including estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, thyroid, and even your sleep-regulating neurochemicals. She talks about how alcohol contributes to hypothyroidism, depletes your zinc and B vitamins, and accelerates aging, and why hormone replacement therapy could be life-changing (especially if you’ve hit your 40s and can’t sleep). And we talk solutions. Like how to replace alcohol as your stress reliever, how to balance hormones safely, and what you can do right now to feel better.   “The earlier you start changing your diet, cutting back on alcohol, balancing your hormones, exercising, and sleeping regularly, the more likely you are to enjoy your life.” ~ Dr. Erika Schwartz   In This Episode - Dr. Erika’s backstory - What alcohol does to your hormones - The hormones that are most affected by alcohol - How the body metabolizes alcohol - Liver health and alcohol - Testing for liver cirrhosis and hormone imbalances - Debunking the “one glass of wine is healthy” myth - Alcohol’s negative impact on sleep quality and insulin regulation - GABA, dopamine, and why alcohol feels relaxing - Alternative ways to relax without alcohol - Progesterone and alcohol cravings (and how to fix it) - Other health issues tied to alcohol consumption   Products & Resources Mentioned Bon Charge Red Light Face Mask: Get 15% off with code WENDY at https://boncharge.com  Tru Energy Skincare Serum: Get a special deal at https://trytruenergy.com/wendy  Chef’s Foundry P600 Cookware: Find it at https://bit.ly/myersdetox  Heavy Metals Quiz: Start at https://heavymetalsquiz.com    About Dr. Erika Schwartz Dr. Erika Schwartz is a board-certified MD and founder of Evolved Science, a cutting-edge longevity clinic based in New York City.
