    • What fentanyl is and why it is so powerful
    • How fentanyl may be hidden in counterfeit prescription pills
    • How it may be mixed with other illicit substances

    • His personal experience with drug use and recovery

  • Ep.242 From Painkillers to Healing My Own Body

    For years, I thought pain was normal. After breaking my back as a child and going undiagnosed for years, I grew up believing pain, medications, and limitations were just part of life. That journey eventually led me into chiropractic, natural healthcare, and over 37 years helping people understand that the body has an incredible ability to heal when given the right support. 

    In this episode, I share:

    • My personal story of chronic pain and recovery
    • Why so many people normalize symptoms for too long
    • The connection between the nervous system and healing
    • Why posture, inflammation, gut health, and toxicity matter
    • How to start supporting your body naturally
    • Why I still believe there is hope — no matter your age

  • Ep.241 Peripheral Neuropathy Explained: When the Toxic Load Cup Overflows

    Peripheral neuropathy is often treated like a life sentence — “there’s nothing you can do,” “just manage the symptoms,” or “wait for it to get worse.” In this episode of McCollum Wellness Radio, Dr. Duncan McCollum explains what peripheral neuropathy really is, why it’s so common, and what can be done to restore function — especially when caught early. 

    Dr. McCollum breaks down: 

    • What the peripheral nervous system is (and how it differs from the central nervous system) 
    • The most common symptoms people ignore (burning, numbness, pins & needles, “wadded up socks,” balance issues, sleep disruption, trouble driving) 
    • The biggest causes, including diabetes / pre-diabetes, chemotherapy & radiation, toxins, heavy metals, molds, medications, alcohol, and nutrient deficiencies
    • Why “quick fixes” rarely work — and why rebuilding nerve health requires a broad-spectrum approach 
    • How nerve healing can happen through restoring oxygen + circulation, supporting detox pathways, and stimulating regeneration 

    If you or someone you love is losing balance, mobility, or quality of life because of neuropathy, this episode is a hopeful starting point. ──────────────────────────── 🔗

  • Ep.240 The Food Pyramid Was Backwards (And It Made Us Sick)

    What if the way we’ve been taught to eat for the last 50 years is one of the main reasons chronic disease, inflammation, and low energy are so common today?

    In this episode of McCollum Wellness Radio, Dr. Duncan McCollum breaks down how the traditional food pyramid was built upside down — and how that shift helped fuel insulin resistance, chronic inflammation, diabetes, autoimmune disease, and nerve damage.

    He explains why ultra-processed foods, refined carbohydrates, and industrial oils disrupt cellular health, and what the “new” nutrition model finally gets right. Dr. McCollum also shares real patient stories, practical grocery-store strategies, and why true healing requires more than symptom management — you have to fix the cell to get well.

    If you’ve struggled with energy, brain fog, cravings, inflammation, or chronic health conditions, this episode offers clarity and a better starting point.

  • Ep.239 Goal Setting, Mindset & Health: Start 2026 the Right Way

    It’s the start of a new year — and the perfect time to reset.

    In this episode, Dr. Duncan McCollum shares the process he uses each year to reset goals, refocus priorities, and create real, lasting change. Instead of trying to change everything at once, he explains why meaningful progress starts by changing yourself first.

    Dr. McCollum breaks down the difference between goals and purpose, why most New Year resolutions fail, and how clearly defining your “ideal scene” can help you move from where you are now to where life should be. He also shares personal stories from his own journey, including writing and publishing books, building health habits, and surrounding yourself with people who’ve already achieved what you’re working toward.

    The conversation weaves together mindset, health, gratitude, and chiropractic principles, emphasizing the body’s innate ability to heal when interference is removed.

    If your goals for 2026 include better health, weight loss, more energy, or renewed clarity and motivation, this episode will help you reset and move forward with intention.
