If I could go back and start my Medical Medium journey all over again, knowing everything I know today, there are quite a few things I would do differently. When you first discover Medical Medium information, it can be overwhelming. There are healing foods, supplements, celery juice, the Heavy Metal Detox Smoothie, cleanses, troublemaker foods, low-fat eating, and countless different protocols. It can be difficult to figure out what actually matters most and where you should begin. In this episode, I break down exactly how I would approach Medical Medium if today were Day One. After years of following this information and going through my own healing journey, I've learned which things I would prioritize immediately, which things I wouldn't stress about nearly as much, and how I would simplify the entire process.

In this episode, you'll discover:

• The first changes I would make if I were starting Medical Medium today

• Why I would remove the biggest troublemaker foods right away

• How I would build a simple Medical Medium morning routine

• Why I would lower my fat intake much earlier in my journey

• Why healing foods would come before building a massive supplement protocol

• How I would decide which supplements and protocols to prioritize

• Why I would focus on my biggest symptoms instead of trying to do everything at once

• Why I would measure healing progress over months instead of days

• The importance of consistency and giving your body enough time to heal

• Why you don't need to follow every Medical Medium protocol at once

• And much more

If you're new to Medical Medium or you've been following the information for a while but feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure whether you're focusing on the right things, this episode will help you simplify the process and focus on what matters most.

The information I share is based largely on what I've learned through Medical Medium® information, along with my own personal experiences and perspective from my healing journey.

For years, I dealt with some of the most bizarre and terrifying sleep problems imaginable, from severe insomnia and sleep paralysis to exploding head syndrome and REM sleep behavior disorder. In this episode, I share what those experiences were like and, more importantly, some of the biggest things I've learned about getting deeper, more restorative sleep and taking the pressure off yourself when sleep just isn't happening.

I discuss:

• My experiences with insomnia, sleep paralysis, exploding head syndrome, and REM sleep behavior disorder

• How much sleep you should actually aim for each night

• The Medical Medium perspective on the important 10 PM–2 AM and 10 AM–2 PM restorative sleep windows

• Creating the ideal sleep environment with blackout curtains, white noise, comfortable bedding, and a cool bedroom

• Reducing blue light, phones, and unnecessary stimulation before bed

• Why I prefer keeping my phone away from my body while sleeping

• Avoiding stressful, aggressive, or overly stimulating activities before bed

• Foods I like before bedtime, including raw honey, bananas, and mangoes

• Natural supplements and ingredients that can help support relaxation and sleep

• My favorite trick for insomnia: stop trying so hard to fall asleep

• Why getting out of bed, relaxing, watching something calming, meditating, or simply resting can take away the anxiety surrounding sleep

• Why one terrible night of sleep isn't the end of the world—and why stressing about insomnia can make the problem even worse

• The importance of consistency, adequate rest, and giving your body time to recover, especially when healing from chronic illness If you've ever found yourself lying awake at 2 AM wondering why the hell you can't sleep, this episode is for you.

Chronic fatigue and brain fog can affect nearly every part of your life, from your ability to work and concentrate to your motivation, relationships, and overall quality of life. But why can you sleep for eight hours and still wake up exhausted? And why can it sometimes feel like your brain simply isn't working the way it used to?

In this episode, I break down chronic fatigue and brain fog from the Medical Medium perspective, including what may be driving these symptoms and some of the most important things you can do to support your body's healing.

I discuss:

• The difference between ordinary tiredness and true chronic fatigue

• Why Medical Medium connects Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and viral activity with chronic fatigue

• Heavy metals, viral neurotoxins, liver burden, and their connection to brain fog within the MM framework

• The caffeine and adrenaline cycle that can leave you feeling even more depleted

• Why glucose, mineral salts, and proper hydration are so important

• Antiviral foods, herbs, and supplements commonly recommended by Medical Medium

• The role dietary fat can play when trying to heal

• Foods and other factors that may be working against your progress

• Why rest, patience, and consistency are so important when recovering from chronic illness

If you're constantly exhausted, struggling to think clearly, or feel like you've lost the energy and mental sharpness you once had, this episode is for you.

Heavy metals are all around us, from the water we drink and food we eat to cookware, personal-care products, pollution, and countless other everyday exposures.

In this episode, I break down why toxic heavy metals matter from the Medical Medium perspective, how they may accumulate over time, and why MM considers them an important factor behind many chronic and neurological symptoms.

I also discuss:

• Where we're commonly exposed to heavy metals in everyday life

• Drinking water, plumbing, food, supplements, and even baby food

• Air pollution and other environmental exposures

• Personal-care products, fragrances, deodorants, air fresheners, and scented products

• Cookware, aluminum foil, pots, pans, and kitchen utensils

• Practical ways to reduce your exposure without obsessing over perfection

• Why MM connects heavy metals with neurological symptoms including brain fog, anxiety, insomnia, migraines, and more

• Why simply reducing new exposure may not address metals already accumulated in the body

• The Medical Medium Heavy Metal Detox Smoothie (HMDS) and why it has become such an important part of my own routine

• The five key HMDS ingredients: wild blueberries, spirulina, barley grass juice powder, cilantro, and Atlantic dulse

• How to incorporate the HMDS into your daily routine consistently

The goal isn't to live in a bubble or eliminate every possible exposure. It's to become aware of the biggest sources, reduce what you reasonably can, and take consistent steps to support your body.

Following Medical Medium information can completely change the way you approach chronic illness and healing but knowing the information and applying it effectively are two different things.

In this episode, I break down some of the biggest mistakes I see people make that can slow their progress, create frustration, or cause them to give up too soon.

I discuss:

• Why dabbling with MM while following conflicting protocols from influencers and online health experts can hold you back
• Expecting years of chronic illness to disappear in weeks and giving up too soon
• How trying to do everything perfectly can lead to stress and burnout
• Focusing too heavily on supplements while overlooking healing foods
• The important role dietary fat can play in your healing journey
• Continuing to eat problematic foods while wondering why progress is slow
• Comparing your healing timeline to someone else's
• Overlooking your environment and toxic load, including air quality, mold, fragrances, VOCs, water, personal-care products, cookware, and other exposures

Most importantly, healing isn't about being perfect. It's about creating a sustainable approach you can consistently follow while continuing to move in the right direction.

For years, I thought my biggest health battle was behind me after recovering from a debilitating neurological condition. Then, out of nowhere, I developed severe eczema that became one of the most frustrating and emotionally draining experiences of my life.

In this episode, I share my complete eczema story, from the first symptoms to the worst of the flare-ups, the physical discomfort, the embarrassment, and the emotional toll of living with a chronic skin condition.

I also discuss:

• How my eczema progressed and the areas of my body it affected

• The treatments and products I tried before finding what worked for me

• Why I believe addressing the root cause is more important than simply managing symptoms

• The information and healing principles that ultimately changed everything for me

• The dietary and lifestyle changes I made throughout my recovery

• The setbacks and challenges I faced along the way

• How long it took before I began seeing real progress

• The biggest lessons I learned from overcoming eczema

• What I would tell someone who's currently struggling with chronic skin issues

Whether you're dealing with eczema, psoriasis, or another persistent skin condition, I hope this episode offers encouragement, practical insights, and hope that improvement is possible.

In this episode of the Heal With Justin Podcast, I share the full story of the debilitating neurological illness that completely changed my life, and how I eventually got my health and my life back.

I take you back to what my health and life looked like before everything began, the first neurological symptoms I noticed, and how those symptoms gradually progressed into something far more frightening and debilitating.

At my worst, I was dealing with severe neurological symptoms that affected nearly every part of my life, including REM behavior disorder that caused me to violently punch in my sleep night after night, along with brain fog, cognitive problems, anxiety, depression, and many other symptoms that made everyday life incredibly difficult.

In this episode, I talk about:

• What my health was like before I became sick
• The first symptoms I noticed and how they progressed
• My experience with severe neurological symptoms and REM behavior disorder
• Brain fog, cognitive issues, anxiety, and depression
• Going to doctors, undergoing testing, and searching for answers
• The frustration of not understanding what was happening to my body
• Discovering Medical Medium® information and why it became a turning point for me
• The diet, lifestyle, and protocol changes I began making
• Which symptoms started improving first and which took longer
• The point when I finally realized, "I'm actually getting better"
• What my health is like today
• The biggest lessons I learned from going through it all

Much of the information and protocols I discuss in this episode are based on what I've learned through Medical Medium and what I personally implemented during my own recovery.

More than 8 years later, I've been able to leave those debilitating neurological symptoms behind. Going through that experience ultimately changed the direction of my life and is a major reason I'm so passionate today about helping others who are struggling with chronic symptoms and searching for answers.

If you're in the middle of your own health struggle right now, I hope sharing my story gives you some hope, perspective, and encouragement that things can change.

Welcome to the very first episode of the Heal With Justin Podcast!

In this introductory episode, I share why I created this podcast, a little about my own healing journey, and what you can expect from future episodes.

After overcoming a debilitating neurological condition more than 8 years ago—and later recovering from a severe battle with eczema—I became passionate about helping others better understand chronic illness and take control of their health. Today, I work with people struggling with chronic symptoms by sharing the information and principles that transformed my own life.

On this podcast, we'll explore topics like:

• Chronic neurological symptoms
• Brain fog and fatigue
• Autoimmune conditions
• Eczema and other skin issues
• Digestive health
• Weight loss
• Detoxification
• Nutrition and healing foods
• Lifestyle habits that support healing
• And much more

While I'll be sharing my own experiences and perspective throughout the show, much of what I discuss is based on the information I've learned through Medical Medium®.

I also talk about interviewing Anthony William (Medical Medium) for nearly three hours several years ago, how we instantly connected, and why I'm incredibly grateful for the impact he's had on both my health and my life.

Whether you're just beginning your healing journey or you've been searching for answers for years, my hope is that this podcast gives you practical information, hope, and encouragement along the way.
