When it comes to fertility and reproductive wellness, there is a lot of confusion about what actually helps. Dr. Berkley explains what people get wrong, what deserves a second look, and where integrative medicine can actually support IVF and reproductive outcomes. JJ Ullrich and Dr. Mike Berkley discuss (true or false):

1. Acupuncture is only for relaxation, not fertility

2. Herbal medicine is unproven or unsafe for fertility patients

3. Low-level light therapy is a gimmick with no real impact

Clearing the Confusion Around Longevity. Dr.G breaks down what’s real, what’s not, and what actually moves the needle. There’s a lot of noise in the longevity world so JJ Ullrich brings Dr.G three of the most commonly misunderstood ideas:

• Is longevity mostly genetics?

• Were our homes actually designed for health?

• Are pills and biohacks the best path to better living?

Are these real solutions or common traps? JJ Ullrich asks Dr. Gary Shlifer about three of the biggest health beliefs people still wonder about:

1.     If I’m not losing fat, I need more cardio

2.     Intermittent fasting alone will fix everything

3.     Low testosterone requires immediate TRT
