Achieve Optimal Health, Performance & Aesthetics - Build From the Inside Out

My guest this week is Amy Jaramillo, Scientific Director of BodyScience. In this episode, Amy and I discuss her scientific approach to looking at diseases and the body. Her goal is to get to the root cause of health issues. She looks at health through a different kind of scientific lens where she is able to look at patterns and see the body as a puzzle. We talk about how her and her team treat underlying infections and reverse diseases such as ALS. Even if you are well versed in infections this episode covers a lot. Lastly, no episode would be complete without touching on one of our favorites–peptides. Amy Jaramillo is the Founder of Body Science LLC, a science based medical center developed with a mission to identify the root cause of health syndromes. We identify the triggers, exposures and genetic predispositions responsible for conditions including: Motor Neurone Disease, Thyroid Dysregulation, Adrenal Fatigue, ADD/ADHD, Auto-Immunity, Diabetes, Leaky Gut, and Infertility and then we correct them. Our goal is to cure, not merely to medicate. A graduate of Florida State University with a B.S. in Biology and Chemistry, Amy has over 21 years of experience in the healthcare industry. She is a member of the American Academy of Anti -Aging (A4M) since 2011 and a past member of the Association for the Advancement of Restorative Medicine (AARM). Amy has extensive experience working in the fields of bio-genetics and bio-technology understanding the genetics-disease link as well as in the field of brain stimulation, implantation and neuromodulation for neuro-degenerative disease.

My guest this week is Caroline Alan, Mineral Enthusiast, Co-Founder & CEO of BEAM Minerals. In this episode, Caroline and I discuss minerals/electrolytes. Caroline talks about how fulvic and humic minerals in their bioavailable ionic format can offer an array of health benefits. Besides water the rest of our bodies are mostly composed of minerals. It makes sense why these minerals offer such amazing health benefits. Minerals in their natural form offer a full spectrum of electrolytes, micronutrients, amino acids and vitamins. We talk about all the things minerals can help with from energy levels to detoxing from heavy metals. Caroline Alan is a health survivor and mineral enthusiast. Coming from a career in the corporate world, like many, Caroline found herself struggling physically, mentally and energetically. As a result of her journey back to health, Caroline has become devoted to educating people about how minerals operate in the body, why we need to supplement our mineral intake and the benefits of plant-based mineral supplementation. Caroline is a regular contributor to Podcasts and health-focused events and programs around the world. She is also the Co-Founder and CEO of BEAM Minerals Inc.

Dr. Liu also has a passion for peptides–sharing how she uses peptides in addition to probiotics and other targeted therapeutics to support gut health at her Institute, what is the preferred method of administration for the best bioavailability of peptides, favorite go-to peptides for various conditions, and how to stack peptides with other therapies.

My guest this week is Kent Holtorf, M.D. of Holtorf Medical. In this episode, Dr. Holtorf and I discuss how his clinic treats complex conditions such as lyme, mold, shingles and other chronic illnesses. Could it be that there is a more simple way of treating them than we think? What to treat first with chronically ill people, especially when they are incredibly sensitive? Dr. Holtorf addresses the importance of the immune system from a different perspective than most, specifically the thymus gland. Can you be sick if your thymus is working at an optimal level? How does the immune system get out of balance? How does mitochondrial dysfunction fit into chronic conditions? What is human transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) and why is it important? What peptides are the best for various conditions? These are just a few of the many topics we discuss.
