Glutathione is one of the major endogenous antioxidants that is made in nearly every cell in our body. Oxidative stress occurs when the body is exposed to toxins whether its air pollution from cars, excessive heavy metals, mold, or disruptive types of EMF. Dr Nayan Patel, inventor of a transdermal glutathione called Glutaryl, explains how it quenches free radicals and how people have used it to recover faster from injury, strength training, and infections. Most glutathione products are either encapsulated, liposomal, suppository or intravenous forms. I was really impressed with how much I felt the beneficial effects of Glutaryl when I applied it twice a day for a few months so I was inspired to have the founder on the show.

We often hear about detoxifying our body and if we do hear about detoxifying our home it is only laser focused on mold or electromagnetic fields. We need hyper specialization to get to the root of problems but we also need big picture perspectives. In this episode Josh Kaye, author of "Toxic: A Comprehensive Guide to a Healthier Home", joins us to provide that zoomed-out view of all of the pitfalls in modern living and choices we can make to upgrade different areas. We talk about water filtration for drinking and bathing, mold prevention, his favorite laundry detergent, polyester clothing and alternatives, why he like stainless steel cookware, how to test the health of your light bulbs using your iPhone, EMFs, electric cars, bedding, and more.

Israel "Raven" Ruiz was introduced to the ancient art of alchemy in Taos, New Mexico. In this episode he shares stories of animals showing up in front of him dying as if they were asking to be transmuted into spagyrics. He talks about how we can learn powerful life lessons from taking them in, how this differs from homeopathy, the difference between plant, mineral, and animal spagyrics, the lessons that we can learn from the red fox, the cicada, and the tarantula. This is a very esoteric show so if you enjoy that sort of thing you will love this conversation!

In 2019 I designed a health protocol that was based on my previous 10 years of research and experience with nutrition, supplements and health technology. I recorded one show summarizing my CLF Protocol several years ago but I figured it is time to do a deep dive into each of its three parts, starting with lipofuscin. In this solo show I share information that i've never talked about nor seen anyone else talk about regarding lipofuscin and specifically its relationship to polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) intake and vitamin E. I talk about what lipofuscin is, who I learned about it from, what light it emits when it gets hit with ultraviolet light, why its harmful to our health, and the solutions i've found to slow its accumulation and even stimulate its removal.

What role does genetics and the health of the parents play in a child's risk of developing a skin condition like eczema? Why is it a myth that only the mother's health matters and not the fathers in healthy child development? What causes "leaky skin"? Which foods should be limited initially when healing from eczema? Why can sunlight exposure exacerbate eczema?  Abbie Bradford answers all of these questions and much more in this chat all about the skin condition called eczema specifically as it relates to children. I grew up with itching the inside of my arms until they bled and when my eczema went away acne cropped up... so I am passionate about this topic and providing resources for parents to avoid a childhood of tarnished self esteem which really affects relationship and career development. Eczema and skin conditions in general are a big deal that can really impair one's ability to live a full life.
