Your health issues might start in your mouth—and no one’s telling you.



In this episode, Nirvani cracks open the mind-bending insights of Accidental Blowup in Medicine by Dr. Simon Yu—an MD, Army Reserve Colonel, and pioneering voice in integrative diagnostics. With decades of clinical experience and a background that fuses Western medicine with Eastern energy systems, Dr. Yu is one of the few physicians brave enough to question the blind spots in conventional healthcare—and smart enough to offer a tactical blueprint for real healing.

Get ready to dive into the hidden factors sabotaging chronic illness recovery—like silent dental infections, unresolved parasitic loads, and energy blockages most doctors never even test for. Nirvani explores Dr. Yu’s use of acupuncture meridian assessment (AMA), a diagnostic tool that detects electrical imbalances in the body before symptoms even appear. You’ll learn why your wisdom tooth could be linked to heart disease, how old dental work might be wrecking your nervous system, and why certain pharmaceuticals, when used strategically, might be the missing piece in detox and recovery. This one’s a deep dive for anyone ready to question surface-level medicine and get tactical about total-body optimization.

You’ll Learn:

• How hidden dental infections silently sabotage immune function
• Why your wisdom teeth might be linked to heart problems
• How to use AMA to detect energy blockages
• What low meridian readings reveal about chronic illness and toxicity
• How parasites, mold, and heavy metals disrupt long-term healing
• Why pharmaceuticals can outperform homeopathics in stubborn parasite cases
• How to align dental treatments with whole-body health goals
• What most doctors miss about the energetic root of disease
• Why personalized sequencing is critical for effective detox
• How to spot the missing links in unresolved chronic conditions
