The topic of fluoride is a big one so this is just an introductory show about why I personally use it and question the health educators that say nobody should use ever it. Rather than dive into studies in this show, I talk about the advantage of fluorapatite over hydroxyapatite and how utilizing sodium fluoride topically provides all day protection from acid attacks and demineralization of the enamel. I talk about the roles of magnesium and vitamin K2 in regulating oral health, why I chew xylitol gum, my thoughts on Dr Ellie's protocol, and which flosser and toothbrush I use.

In this month's Q&A show, I answer questions in a rapid fire fashion.
Listener questions include: How we keep our animals flea free? What do I recommend for postpartum hair loss? Any updates on my mold situation? Can you take Dissolve It All (Mitolife systemic enzymes) at the same time as other supplements? What are my favorite supplements and practices for liver health? What do I think about peptides? How do you correct a zinc and copper imbalance? What are my biggest regrets in my health journey? Why do I prefer niacinamide over TruNiagen (nicotinamide riboside/NR)? What are the best supplements for a pilot to take?

There is a lot of all-or-nothing approaches in the health community on social media and I've noticed that the nuanced conversation around alcohol consumption is no exception. In this episode I talk about what alcohol gets converted into as it travels through our body, how it affects the gut and liver, alcohol's effects on our brain, and how the two enzymes that we use to metabolize it are dependent upon NAD+.
I focus primarily on a multitude of solutions that vary in cost: why I prefer niacinamide to raise NAD, the study that showed how inhaling controlled amounts of carbon dioxide can increase alcohol clearance threefold, the complex relationship between alcohol and melatonin and why I don't agree with all of the internet articles saying to not mix them, how ascorbic acid/vitamin C mitigates many of the effects of alcohol including the changes in brain chemistry, the role of vitamin E in protecting from alcohol consumption, my favorite electrolytes to take before and after drinking, and the genetically modified bacteria shot I take everytime I drink, and why I love the Botanist dry gin.

It has been really interesting to research mold and learn about the different approaches that people have to it. Seth Jones, founder of Superstratum Labs, joins me in this episode to talk about why throwing out all of your belongings that have been exposed to mold is a thing of the past.
In the past fifteen years I've heard many stories about people moving out of their moldy homes and living in tents to restore their health. With a proper protocol, like what Seth designed, using hypochlorous acid, chlorine dioxide, and an innovative mold resistant coating that you can douse your bathroom in every month or two, we do not have to react in extreme ways to mold exposure anymore.
He talks about mold testing versus mycotoxin testing, the negative health effects of mycophenolic acid, why we don't use bleach to kill mold, how and why we use chemistry to oxidize and break down mycotoxins, the three main areas in the home you'll find mold, why an oversized HVAC system is a huge problem, why to not use ozone on mold, how to use hypochlorous acid on your garden, why he likes nasal sprays for mold illness, and more.

The night before I was to fly out to visit my family for Christmas I witnessed my basement raining down tons of water underneath my bathtub post soak. It turns out that all three contractors that worked on that custom lodestone bathtub did not check that it was sealed underneath the rocks. I've had the tub for four years and ever since then it has been feeding mold underneath in the drywall and insulation.
The surprising thing is even with the exposure for at least the past three years I have been building my business, switching to a solo podcast format which takes more brain power, juggling multiple homestead building projects on top of Mitolife, and generally thriving in life. There's no doubt that there are levels of intensity of exposure. My situation is different from someone in a New York apartment with a landlord that doesn't care about its tenants thats been moldy for decades. However, the fact remains that I have definitely been exposed to mycotoxins and I have lived my life for the most part unfazed.
I credit my robust health to the solutions that I share in this podcast. I was tagged in a FB mold reel this morning and the solutions were an air filter company that sends free units to influencers to promote them (scam), a crystal energy harmonizing device (very low priority), and crystal singing bowls. I almost spit out my coffee. This is the reason why I have this podcast and why I'm still on social media. Enjoy the real solutions to myctoxins that I share in this podcast.
I talk about my favorite air filter that I have zero financial kickback from, the top supplements that someone should prioritize with mold illness, how high dose clean zeolite powder indirectly helps with mycotoxins, the mechanisms of how mycotoxins disrupt our cellular membranes, and the most affordable at-home protocols for restoring health from mold exposure.
