This week's episode covers breast implants, and how they might be compromising your immune system. When Tiffany received her implants, the doctor told her that there were only two side effects to consider. After a serious injury, Tiffany went through a wide range of symptoms, and some of those included depression and suicidal thoughts. Although Tiffany was seeing a therapist at the time, she knew there was something more to this.

When Tiffany found the resource, Healing Breast Implant Illness, she discovered many other women suffering from the same symptoms she was. Did you know implants can get mold on them, that neither an MRI or an Ultrasound can pick up on? Tiffany took her implants out, and she saw drastic changes. Listen in, to find out more about her story!

Key Takeaways:

[2:30] Who is Tiffany?

[4:45] Tiffany honestly thought she was going crazy, and her suicidal thoughts were getting worse.

[7:35] When Tiffany shared her story on social media, friends came forward and asked if maybe Tiffany's breast implants had something to do with her being constantly sick.

[12:35] When Tiffany got her implants, the doctors only told her that there were two risks.

[16:05] Tiffany's surgeon took out the breast implants and the extra scar tissue associated with it and Tiffany had the scar tissue tested for toxins.

[16:55] Unfortunately, some women will get black mold on their implants or ruptures and the MRI or ultrasound is not able to find them.

[18:30] Your immune system just doesn't like foreign objects in your body.

[20:40] So many of Tiffany's symptoms disappeared when she took out her implants.

[22:35] Did you know you can do a breast enhancement with stem cells? There are alternatives!

Dr. Jim Stringham has been a therapist for over 15 years, and some of his work focuses on unclogging emotional barriers, as well as dream interpretation work. Dr. Stringham has been Regan's therapist for a number of years, and has worked with him on various aspects of his life. To begin this week's interview, Dr. Stringham discusses the parent, adult, and child ego and how it can impact our romantic relationships if these are not aligned accordingly.

Key Takeaways:

[1:00] How did Dr. Stringham and Regan first meet?

[2:50] We have different sections or aspects to our ego: Parent, adult, and child.

[4:10] What kind of things does a person with a parent ego do to others?

[5:20] In a romantic relationship, a couple cannot synergize well, if they're playing a parent or a child role. Both partners need to fit into the adult role.

[6:45] A patient/doctor relationship should always be a partnership, because both of you are working towards a goal.

[8:15] Approximately 93-95% of what we do is not a conscious choice.

[11:30] How does enmeshment play into these parent, adult, and child ego roles?

[15:55] Regan talks about a very vivid dream he had and what it meant to him.

[18:40] From a psychological perspective, why do we dream?

[21:05] What does a healthy masculine energy vs. a healthy feminine energy look like?

[23:50] What's the goal of psychotherapy? It's to balance these two energies out.

[27:15] Through the work that Regan has done with Dr. Stringham, he can safely say his relationships, as well as his self-confidence, have greatly improved.

Regan welcomes Mary Wingo, Ph.D. to the program to talk about her latest book, The Impact of the human stress response: The biological origins and solutions to human stress. Having earned her Ph.D. in human stress research from The University of North Texas, Mary moved from the U.S. to Ecuador and found it opened her eyes to the numerous, preventable costs stress causes many people living in the modern world.

Key Takeaways:

[00:16] Regan welcomes Mary to the show, all the way from Ecuador.

[00:45] What motivated Mary to write a book on the human stress response?

[01:55] There has yet to be a good "elevator response" to how stress actually works.

[02:35] Mary elaborates on her quote, "The more we exchange matter and energy with the environment, the less we're able to defend ourselves from the stressors within the environment."

[04:58] What does Mary recommend people do in order to become more adaptable, and to better handle stress?

[05:30] There are five major categories of stressors derived from modern society.

[07:18] Preventable stress has caused a parabolic rise of stress-related diseases and premature deaths and disability.

[08:45] Ecuadorians are not seeing this stress crisis to nearly the level of The United States. What are some of the primary differences?

[10:15] The first stressor is a Loss of Working Memory, or "Complexity". This is the load of multitasking placed on our cognitive resources.

[11:00] The second is Social Inequality.

[11:24] The third is Loss of Social Capital, which is basically a loss of social support.

[12:00] The fourth is the Derangement or Depletion of the Human Biome.

[12:40] The fifth is Chemical Stress. This is involuntary and voluntary exposures, our diet, antibiotics, etc.

[14:45] Why is the level of complexity so toxic?

[16:15] Does Mary see any difference in the Social Inequality between Ecuador and The United States?

[18:25] Mary breaks down coordinated processes of the chemical and hormonal activities that cause exhaustion in the long-term.

[24:30] Regan feels the bacteria in the gut should be on the endangered species list.

Your hormones, and the bacteria in your gut, may have far more to do with brain fog than how well your brain is actually functioning. Today, Regan digs deep to understand the root causes of brain fog, and provide practical solutions toward reversing the effects.

Key Takeaways:

[00:12] What is brain fog?

[01:20] What artificial intelligence will never duplicate is the ability to find meaning in life. Learn how brain fog affects your emotions, thought process, and even sensations.

[03:30] Regan shares his history of autoimmunity caused by chemical exposure as a child.

[07:15] The food pyramid recommends 6-11 services of breads, grains, and rice. That's a recipe for inflammation and brain fog.

[09:00] The research on statins and blood pressure shows they are doing little to nothing in lowering the rate of heart disease, but are the single worst group of drugs for your brain.

[10:15] What happens when our brains are not working well?

[11:18] Much of brain fog starts, surprisingly, with the digestive system.

[13:18] What is leaky gut, and what is the cause?

[16:15] What are the ways to ensure you have healthy, active neurotransmitters?

[17:30] The best state for "flow" is when we see gamma and theta brain wave activity.

[18:40] Dopamine is released when you get projects done. Start something and finish it!

[19:25] Meditation is one of the best things you can do for your brain on a regular basis.
