Unlock Hydrogen's Secret Power: How This Overlooked Molecule Fights Chronic Inflammation, Balances Hormones, and Supercharges Your Health – Exclusive Insights from Self-Taught Pioneer Alex Tarnava
It’s people like Alex who are pushing and will continue to push the future of medicine and healthcare. Because of his curious and exploratory mind, Alex refused to accept his diagnosis as chronically sick and thought differently about possible solutions. Many years later, he is the foremost pioneer of the use and delivery of hydrogen to optimize human health, from catalyzing metabolic health to working synergistically to enhance already established treatments.Alex Tarnava is a self-taught scientist, inventor, and author whose work sits at the intersection of biomedical innovation, sovereign health, and philosophical disruption. He is the inventor of the world’s only open-cup molecular hydrogen tablet—a patented delivery system that has become the most studied and widely adopted form of hydrogen therapy globally. The technology has been used in more than 21 published clinical trials and has helped catalyze a new wave of research into the therapeutic potential of molecular hydrogen.Contact:Website - https://alextarnava.comWebsite - https://hydrogenwatertablets.com Join us as we explore:How a mystery virus changed Alex’s life forever, sending him on a search for anything that would reverse the chronic inflammation ravaging his body - and he found hydrogen.How hydrogen water works biologically, how it creates cellular homeostasis and can even modulate hunger hormones.How much hydrogen do you need, the conditions its most effective for, the best ways to take it, how we produce it endogenously (and therefore how to produce more naturally) and why it is NOT an antioxidant.Why Alex needed to invent and develop his own delivery methods and machines to ensure safe and effective hydrogen delivery.Support the showFollow Steve's socials: Instagram | LinkedIn | YouTube | Facebook | Twitter | TikTokSupport the show on Patreon:As much as we love doing it, there are costs involved and any contribution will allow us to keep going and keep finding the best guests in the world to share their health expertise with you.

Revitalizing Skin and Hormones Holistically: Busting Myths, Healing Leaky Barriers, and Embracing Legacy Medicine with Dr. Trevor Cates, ND
Are you reading the ingredients in your skin creams, shampoos and soaps? If you are not, you need to start because the toxic compounds in everyday personal products are disrupting your hormonal health and creating the conditions for diseases like cancer. But it’s not only the products, it’s our mindset and beliefs - our spiritual health. That’s why Dr Cates approaches skin health and hormonal harmony from both the inside-out and the outside-in. Dr. Trevor Cates is a licensed naturopathic physician with over 24 years of experience specializing in women’s health. After overcoming her own childhood health struggles, she pursued an integrative approach to medicine and became the first woman licensed as a naturopathic doctor in California, later relocating her practice to Utah. While serving patients at the Waldorf Astoria Spa in Park City, she recognized that healing extends beyond the physical body, inspiring her to earn a master’s degree in spiritual psychology. This combination of training enables her to guide women in balancing hormones, restoring health, and reconnecting with their true nature. To reach women beyond the one-on-one clinical setting, Dr. Cates created the Hormones, Health & Harmony 9-part documentary series, the PBS special Younger Skin From Within, and The Woman’s Doctor Podcast. She is also the author of two bestselling books, Clean Skin From Within and Natural Beauty Reset. Contact:Website - https://drtrevorcates.comJoin us as we explore:Everything we are getting wrong about skin care - from the products we use, the way we use them, why the most important skin care “product” is not one at all and more skin care myths busted.Cr Cates inside-out approach to holistic health, why she prefers to focus on the do’s versus the dont’s and why skin issues are misunderstood to be topical issues not systemic symptoms.Leaky skin - why it happens, tell tale signs, blocking agents, the skin microbiome and consequences like eczema.What nourishes your skin and makes it healthy and beautiful, and what to avoid eating to avoid skin challenges.The concept of legacy medicine and why spiritual psychology allowed Dr Cates to understand why so many of her patients were unable to make certain steps to get better.Support the showFollow Steve's socials: Instagram | LinkedIn | YouTube | Facebook | Twitter | TikTokSupport the show on Patreon:As much as we love doing it, there are costs involved and any contribution will allow us to keep going and keep finding the best guests in the world to share their health expertise with you.
