  • Breast Cancer Prevention Without Radiation or Mammograms | Dr. Jenn Simmons

    243: In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Jennifer Simmons, a former top breast cancer surgeon turned functional medicine expert. We discuss her journey from conventional medicine to a root-cause-focused approach, and what inspired her to launch Real Health MD and perfeQTion Imaging.


    I had the incredible opportunity to visit her imaging center in Philadelphia for a breast scan, and it was unlike anything I’ve ever experienced—non-invasive, painless, and completely radiation-free. We talk all about this alternative to traditional mammograms and the many ways women can take proactive steps toward better breast health without fear or discomfort.


    Topics Discussed:

    • What is perfeQTion Imaging and how does it compare to traditional mammograms?
    • Are there non-invasive and radiation-free options for breast cancer screening?
    • How does functional medicine approach breast cancer prevention and treatment?
    • What are the side effects of traditional breast cancer treatments and are there alternatives?
    • How can lifestyle and diet influence your risk for breast cancer?

              242: Fluoride in our water isn’t as safe or effective as we’ve been told.

We also dive into the real drivers of dental health—like diet and processed foods—plus how to remove fluoride from your water and advocate for safer policies.

              Topics Discussed: 

              • What are the health risks associated with fluoride in drinking water?
              • How does fluoride in water impact dental health and IQ levels?
              • Why is it difficult to regulate fluoride levels in public water systems?
              • What role does diet and processed food play in dental health?

                      241: In today’s episode, I’m joined by Dr. Peter McCullough, one of the most published cardiologists in his field, with over 700 published studies. If you followed me during COVID, you know I’ve been following his work closely as he provided crucial insights that went against the mainstream narrative—and as we now know, he was right. We talk about how to test for potential vaccine side effects, what to do if you're concerned, and Dr. McCullough’s proven detox protocol.


                      This episode is packed with science-based advice on long-term impacts, fertility concerns, and what to look for if you're dealing with any side effects.

                                239: In this episode, I sit down with the founders of WeNatal to talk all about fertility and the nutrients our bodies need for a healthy pregnancy. As many of you know, I’ve already declared 2025 my year of fertility, and I’m on a mission to learn everything I can to prepare for pregnancy.

                                We talk about fertility myths, so-called "geriatric pregnancies," and the biggest factors affecting conception today. Both founders have experienced miscarriages, which led them to create a prenatal that truly supports the body’s needs. If you’re hoping to get pregnant this year or next, this episode is one you won’t want to miss.

                                                  • Why Your Health is Under Attack – Dr. Will Cole on MAHA & Free Speech

                                                    236: In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Will Cole to discuss the growing momentum of the MAHA movement, the pushback it’s facing, and why figures like Robert F. Kennedy Jr. are playing a key role. We explore the politicization of health and what it will take to create real change in our food system.

                                                    We also cover chronic illness, the link between POTS and COVID, and the overuse of SSRIs. Dr. Cole shares insights on free speech in health science and how we can wake more people up to what’s really happening.

                                                    Topics Discussed:

                                                    • The MAHA movement & pushback

                                                                                              236: Kelly Ryerson, also known as Glyphosate Girl, joins me to expose Bayer’s push for legal immunity from glyphosate lawsuits. If they succeed, it could block your right to hold them accountable for health harms.


                                                                                              We break down what’s at stake, highlight key states where action is needed, and share how you can fight back. Public pressure matters—and your voice can make a difference.

                                                                                                          235: In this second installment, we continue peeling back the layers on the nuances of carnivore eating, seed oils, and autoimmune issues. We also dive into my fiancé Hector’s incredible psoriasis healing journey and how diet can impact thyroid health.  


                                                                                                          Paul brings his unique perspective as both a trained physician and a passionate advocate for ancestral eating, and this episode dives even deeper into some of the most misunderstood areas of nutrition. We also touch on the intersection of food policy, healthcare, and how misinformation has shaped modern dietary guidelines. Whether you’re new to Paul’s work or a longtime follower, this conversation will leave you questioning much of what we’ve been taught about health and nutrition.

We recorded while we were both in Washington, D.C., for the Make America Healthy Again ball, and I’m so excited to share it with you. Paul is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to nutrition and preventative health, and I’ve been following his work for years.  


                                                                                                                            In this episode, we take a deep dive into cholesterol myths, the role of saturated fat, and how metabolic dysfunction—not cholesterol—is the real issue. Paul shares a fascinating analogy that helped me fully grasp these concepts. We also discuss the benefits of an animal-based diet, the history and controversy around raw milk, and the broader implications of nutrition policy and education.
