Never Been Sicker

NBS #94: More Than Mold: How Mindset & Toxins Shape Chronic Illness with Brendan Vermeire


Listen Later

Brendan Vermeire, FMHP opens with a powerful assessment: Americans are sicker than ever, weighed down by lifestyle-related illness, toxic overload, and chronic stress. He stresses mindset—victim vs. victor mentality—as the pivotal factor in healing, followed closely by consistent exercise. We then explore the hidden burden of environmental toxins (glyphosate, EMFs, mold, VOCs, microplastics, PFAS) that erode hormonal balance, metabolism, and immunity. Brendan argues that while pharmaceuticals like Ozempic have a role, they must be used within the context of proper nutrition, movement, and psychological resilience. Finally, he pitches his new “Mastering Mold Illness” course and textbook—designed to train practitioners and help more people reclaim their lives.

00:00 – 01:00 | Brendan agrees: “The American collective has never been more compromised.”
01:00 – 03:00 | Lifestyle-induced illness: 88% metabolically ill, 70% overweight—“It's staggering.”
03:11 – 05:00 | Mindset matters: “Victim or Victor, it’s your choice.”
05:15 – 06:30 | Power of resilience: “Placebo‑nocebo... do I believe I can heal?”
09:36 – 10:07 | Exercise wins: “What type of movement do you enjoy?”
14:19 – 16:31 | Toxic environment: “We ingest, breathe, drink… this toxic soup.”
20:05 – 21:03 | Hormones + peptides: “Can move the needle fastest with quality of life.”
32:34 – 35:02 | Blood chemistry: “People who apply themselves in the gym get better results.”
36:14 – 38:36 | Ozempic nuance: “Minimum effective dose is always a good way to go.”
40:06 – 41:35 | Course launch: “Mastering Mold Illness” and accompanying textbook.
