Tina Chen Craig — co-founder of U Beauty and one of the most joyful people in the wellness and beauty world — returns to The Art of Being Well in person for her first in-studio conversation with Dr. Will Cole. Tina breaks down U Beauty's Siren Capsule Technology (recently peer-reviewed in the Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology), explains the Four Cs skincare protocol, introduces the brand new Barrier Bioactive Serum Mist launching at Sephora, and shares the Chinese ancestral wisdom she grew up with — from cold water on the face to snow fungus and bitter gourd — that Western science is only now beginning to understand. Plus: Ozempic face, intermittent fasting for women, micro-moment exercise, and the Year of the Fire Horse. For all links mentioned in this episode, visit www.drwillcole.com/podcast.

Dr. Will Cole and his clinical team go deep on three listener questions: the functional medicine approach to bipolar II depression (including gut health, the COMT gene, mold toxicity, mitochondrial dysfunction, lithium orotate, and saffron), whether masseter Botox for TMJ pain is safe and worth it, and whether the viral social media trend of sticking your tongue out for 40 seconds actually lowers cortisol. The answer to that last one is more interesting than the trend itself.

Dr. David Perlmutter — neurologist, New York Times bestselling author, and author of the new book Brain Defenders — joins Dr. Will Cole to reveal what he believes is the most important breakthrough in brain health science in decades: the microglial cell. He explains why the amyloid hypothesis that has dominated Alzheimer's research (and pharmaceutical spending) for 30 years has been definitively disproven by a Cochrane analysis, why a Harvard lifestyle study arrested Alzheimer's decline in 70% of patients without any drug, and what the April 2024 NEJM GLP-1 Parkinson's trial means for the future of neurodegenerative disease. They also cover the practical daily habits, foods, supplements, and lab tests that shift the brain's immune cells from destructive to protective — and why you are far more the architect of your brain's destiny than anyone has told you.

In Health Hot Take #2, Dr. Will Cole and Andrea go deep on something generating real alarm — not just on social media, but in town halls across the country. AI data centers: what they're emitting, what they're consuming, and what they're doing to the communities around them. They also pull back the curtain on the philosophical movement driving AI acceleration — from 19th century Russian philosopher Nikolai Fyodorov to Nick Land's dark enlightenment and the documented connections to key Silicon Valley figures. Plus: the practical EMF mitigation steps everyone can take, how to help bees survive a changing world, and why this is ultimately a call to be informed, empowered, and present.

In this Ask Me Anything episode, Dr. Will Cole and his clinical team address a third-year medical student experiencing deep frustration with conventional medicine, answer a practical question about canned chicken safety (and why sardines win every time), and tackle Lyme disease and vertigo — including why upwards of half of Lyme patients can develop POTS-like dysautonomia symptoms, and why a Lyme doctor saying there's no connection should raise eyebrows. They also cover the US nutrition education crisis in medical schools, the regenerative aquaculture movement, and how to build nervous system resilience after a Lyme diagnosis.

Laura Day — intuitive, author of seven books including The Prism, and the woman Demi Moore and Gwyneth Paltrow credit with changing their lives — joins Dr. Will Cole in New York for one of the most intellectually surprising conversations the podcast has had. Laura explains how intuition is not a gift reserved for special people but a mechanical system anyone can develop, and why the key is boundaries rather than access. She walks through the Prism framework — seven ego centers that correspond to the endocrine system and reflect both your internal and external world — and explains why picking the change you most resist is always the right one. She also shares what it means to be the sole survivor of a family where every other member suicided, and why she's grateful that system became the tool she could give others.

Dr. Jenn Simmons — former fellowship-trained breast surgeon, functional medicine physician, and founder of Perfection Imaging — joins Dr. Will Cole in New York for one of the most important conversations about women's health this podcast has ever had. She shares the family loss that launched her career, her own cancer diagnosis at 46 that led her to functional medicine, and why she walked away from a surgical career to build something entirely different. She makes a clear-eyed, evidence-backed case against mammograms as a standard screening tool — citing multiple large-scale clinical trials — and introduces two safe, effective alternatives: the ARIA tears test and QT sound wave imaging. She also addresses the BRCA genetic conversation, DCIS overtreatment, and why breast cancer must be understood as a metabolic, environmental, and mitochondrial disease.

In this Ask Me Anything episode, Dr. Will Cole and his clinical team tackle three listener questions: whether multivitamins are worth the money (and the clinical trial data that actually supports them), what to do about 12+ fibroids when your OB is recommending a hysterectomy, and how to think about biomagnetism when you have EBV, a possible lupus/Sjogren's diagnosis, and friends pushing tirzepatide. They also cover why being a wellness purist can limit your healing, and wrap with Sip of the Summer Round 3 — including Dr. Cole's Live120 pomegranate mocktail from the Equinox Hotel.

Wade Lightheart — co-founder of BiOptimizers, former natural bodybuilding champion, and one of the most rigorously science-minded people in the supplement world — joins Dr. Will Cole for a deep dive into why magnesium is so uniquely critical right now, how different types of magnesium work differently in the body, and what the brand new Magnesium Gold formula adds to the conversation. Wade also shares the origin story of BiOptimizers (started with $100 in 2004, now $100M/year), his near-death experience at 22 and the spiritual journey it launched, why most hydration products have the sodium/potassium ratio completely inverted, and the 78,000 lab experiments that explain why their products work so differently from everything else on the shelf.
