Dr Scott Sherr is an expert in integrative and health optimization medicine and the COO of the company Troscriptions that offers "troches", methylene blue lozenges. He talks about the origins of methylene blue, its effects on the brain, where it concentrates, how it interacts with light, when you want to take it, the difference between polyethylene glycol and propylene glycol, and more. 

I find it fascinating that methylene blue can act as both a nootropic and an anti-pathogenic substance. If you're having trouble sourcing high quality methylene blue in these times check out Troscriptions buccal troches. I love using all three of their products in different situations.

Renaissance man Atom Bergstrom returns to the show to talk about the four nervous systems, color therapy, how lipofuscin affects cats, how you can tell whether you're acidic or alkaline, what grows in an overly alkaline body, the five things to measure for an accurate pH reading, how to increase hydrochloric acid, and chewing gum.

He answers some Q&A questions at the end including his thoughts on light language, how to cleanse the colon naturally, why we should be more sympathetic than parasympathetic, sleeping on a full stomach, Rife machines and more.

What is the function of the vitamin D receptor (VDR)? How does it interplay with the retinoid receptor (RXR)? What happens to your thyroid function when you supplement D3 and drive up your 1,25D levels? Can supplementing D3 drive the development of osteoporosis? Why does the half-life of 25D and 1,25D matter? Why do you never hear the word "heterodimerization" in vitamin D smurf talk? What is a dimer? 

Vitamin D researcher Jim Stephenson Jr shares his research and dot connections about hormone D supplementing and the effects that it has to cause imbalance in our body. He challenges listeners to dig deeper beyond two or three molecules and to realize the complexity of secosteroid hormone D.

We go down the list point-by-point of a popular pro vitamin D3 article written by researcher Danny Roddy with the goal of bringing clarity to the discussion. We cover oral versus topical administration of D3 and explore the question: how would a substrate lower one of the potentials that it can become?

In the final solo show of the year I talk about why you don't want to supplement vitamin D3, the see-saw effect of nutritional supplements, the importance of carbohydrates and blood sugar regulation, the benefits of light therapy, my recent move to Colorado and upcoming new Mitolife products.

I also answer listener questions including: which Rife machine I prefer, what is the ideal humidity, how to improve sleep, how to prevent hair loss, how to transition to fully off grid living, and how to speed up PUFA detox.

In this episode engineer Andrew LaTour breaks through many myths perpetuated by the red light therapy industry, including:

Are the two best wavelengths 660 and 850 nanometers? Do you have to spend more money to get a better quality product? Do you need full body coverage to get a full body effect? Do you have to be six inches away from the light? Are all ambient LED lights harmful? Is it better to get a panel thats FDA approved? 

He also answers some Q&A questions at the end: Can red light help with acne and stretch marks? Do you need to protect your eyes? Is it better to use it in the morning or evening? Should you be in a dark room while you're using red light? Is there such a thing as too much? What effect does red light have on plants?

Andrew is the founder of an affordable red light therapy company called GembaRed. He carries everything from night lights that won't disrupt your circadian rhythm when you go to the bathroom at night to red light office desk lamps to panels for photobiomodulation purposes. 

The world's leading mineral expert Morley Robbins returns to the show to announce the release of his new book, "Cure Your Fatigue". Morley is the creator of the Root Cause Protocol and a master dot connector when it comes to mineral balance. He often says that there are 84 minerals but only 3 that really matter: copper, magnesium and iron.

In this interview he gives a brief summary of the book, the 3 things that mitochondria have to do, the connection of red and blue light to mitochondrial function, and the places of the brain with the highest concentration of copper.

Have you been diagnosed with ADD or ADHD? Have you taken medications like methylphenolate? Is Ritalin an amphetamine-like substance? Do these drugs cause brain damage? Is the DSM/Diagnostic and Statistical Manual a medical textbook or a spell book?

Tane Webster, ADD expert and owner of Grow Sanctuary, shares his experience of being diagnosed with a behavioral disorder, his journey on the medications and how he healed. He shares his philosophy on the diagnosis and answers an extensive list of Q&A questions at the end of the show.

Ozone therapy is in a class called oxidative therapies. It often gets lumped into the same category as hyperbaric oxygen therapy, hydrogen peroxide, and even chlorine dioxin (MMS). In reality ozone is much safer than all of those. As Charles Barber of Crucial Four expands on in this episode, it isn't the ozone that does the work - it is the ozonides that circulate in the body for weeks or months. 

They have the unique ability to increase the amount of oxygen that our mitochondria can use. One of the mechanisms is that ozonides stimulate an enzyme called diphosphoglycerate, enabling the release of oxygen from hemoglobin.

The implications for this type of therapy are endless and the best part is that after the initial investment of a generator and an oxygen tank, it can be done for pennies everyday.

Charles has been using ozone therapy for over 15 years and in this episode he busts a lot of ozone myths, dives deep into the science of how ozone actually works in the body and explains why you don't want to buy an ozone generator built from Chinese parts.

Want to feel more focused? More calm? More confident? Want to alter your perception of the "stuff" in your life? Want to manage stress better? Want to experience greater resiliency? These are all things that dynamic neurofeedback brain training can provide.

Dr Valdeane Brown cofounded the Zengar Institute and over the course of two decades developed a technology called NeurOptimal. Instead of pushing the brain in a certain direction, it takes a different approach by letting the brain choose where it wants to go to smooth out inefficiencies and sub-optimal functioning.   

In this interview Valdeane shares his perspectives about trauma, emotional healing, neurotechnology, and what makes NeurOptimal different from every other brain training system.
