In this episode, Elwin Robinson is joined again by Dr. Miriam Mikicki — medical doctor, functional medicine practitioner, and expert in traditional Chinese medicine — to explore advanced compounds and strategies for brain fog, focus, memory, and cognitive longevity. They cover peptides like Semax, Selank, Cerebrolysin, Cortexin and Dihexa, plus nootropics and nutraceuticals including phosphatidylserine, scutellaria, C15, plasmalogens, nattokinase, methylene blue and bromantane — including who should and shouldn't use them, dosing, and forms.

In this episode, Elwin Robinson takes a deep dive into lead toxicity — a massively underdiagnosed problem he personally faced after testing 10 times over the reference range. He covers the symptoms, why lead hides in your bones for decades, how to test for it properly, and the real strategies for reducing your burden, from chelators and binders to calcium, zinc, and peptides.

Belly fat that's firm and bloated rather than flabby is usually visceral fat — the kind that wraps around your organs and behaves like a hormonal organ. In this episode, Elwin Robinson investigates the viral "foods that burn belly fat" claims and separates the ones backed by real randomized controlled trials from the ones that fall apart under scrutiny. He walks through green tea, beans and legumes, garlic, omega-3, olive oil, and lactoferrin — explaining what worked, what didn't, and his own theory that toxicity is the hidden driver of visceral fat.

A reader accused Elwin of bias for downplaying phytonutrients in his book The Nutrient Gap. In this episode, Elwin takes that criticism seriously, explains his framework for defining "nutrients" as actual building blocks the body is made of, and then digs into the real evidence on plant compounds — the ones that help absorption, the ones that block it, and the ones that act more like medicines than nourishment. Expect a fair-minded look at polyphenols, quercetin, piperine, inulin fructans, vitamin C, organic acids, allium sulfur compounds, and fructose — with honest tiers of evidence for each.

In this episode, Elwin Robinson sits down with Dr. Robert Selig — a functional medicine practitioner and mineral balancing specialist with over 30 years of experience — to unpack one of the most confusing topics in health: copper, zinc, and ceruloplasmin. Dr. Selig offers a nuanced middle path between extreme views, explaining how you can be copper toxic and copper deficient at the same time, why zinc is essential (not the enemy), and how hair tissue mineral analysis combined with blood and urine testing reveals the full picture of your biochemistry.

Most diets promise to fix your health — but every restrictive diet leaves out something important. In this episode, Elwin Robinson breaks down 8 popular diets (keto, pescatarian, gluten-free, fiber maxing, carnivore, longevity/CRON, Ray Peat inspired, and low vitamin A) and reveals the specific nutrient deficiencies each one is more likely to cause. This isn't about criticising any diet — it's about helping you fill the gaps so whichever way of eating you choose actually works for you long term.

In this deeply personal episode, Elwin shares the detective story of how one barely-deficient nutrient on a blood test led him to discover a serious medical condition that no doctor or practitioner had been able to find. After resolving it, he gained 7kg of muscle and lost 3kg of fat in 5 months between two DEXA scans, regained his energy, strengthened his immune system, and finally resolved years of mysterious symptoms — from high prolactin to muscle weakness to a dry socket after a root canal extraction.

This is the story of how lead toxicity, a depleted enzyme called ALP, and a hidden condition called hypophosphatasia (HPP) combined to keep Elwin's body secretly starving for B6 and phosphorus — and the simple intervention that turned it all around.

It's also a powerful rebuttal to the "just eat well and exercise" crowd, and a real-world example of why nutritional deficiency is at the heart of so many chronic health issues.

Plus: a full breakdown of Elwin's new book, *The Nutrient Gap: Why Your Body Is Secretly Starving*, launching tomorrow at 90% off.

In this deep dive episode, Elwin Robinson sits down with Dr. Miriam Mikicki to unpack everything you need to know about growth hormone — what it does, why it declines with age, how to measure it, and the real pros and cons of raising it. They cover the natural ways to stimulate growth hormone release, the differences between prescription growth hormone and peptides like ipamorelin, tesamorelin, CJC-1295, and AOD 9604, and the often-overlooked risks including counterfeit products on the gray market, carpal tunnel, blood sugar issues, and hypersensitivity reactions. Whether you're trying to lose fat without losing muscle, recover faster, sleep deeper, or simply slow the decline of aging, this episode gives you a balanced, clinical look at one of the most discussed (and misunderstood) areas of longevity medicine.

In this special farewell episode with co-host Krissy Hawkes, Elwin Robinson takes a deep dive into the seven deadly sins — not as religious dogma, but as a practical framework for understanding why so many of us struggle with our health, relationships, and inner peace. Elwin reinterprets pride, wrath, lust, envy, greed, gluttony, and sloth through the lens of modern psychology, ancient wisdom, and his own lived experience, offering an antidote virtue for each one. You'll learn why guilt and shame actually save us, why pride underlies every other sin, and how cultivating humility, kindness, compassion, gratitude, personal responsibility, acceptance, and courage can transform both your health and your life.
