I used to think my pro athlete status meant health, but I was wrong. Is your comfortable, convenient life actually making you weaker?

I sat down with Michael Kummer, who shared his journey from professional athlete dealing with gut issues to becoming a health expert and supplement company founder. We explored the idea that comfort is killing us, arguing that we must deliberately expose ourselves to hermetic stressors like cold and exercise to build physical and mental resilience. I learned how stacking small wins reinforces a new, healthier identity. We also dove deep into his dietary philosophy—focusing on local, seasonal, animal-based foods—and his approach to raising resilient children in a modern, easy world.

● Comfort is detrimental because it removes the necessary hermetic stressors required for physical and mental strength.

● If you don't stress your body, your structure gets weaker; if you don't challenge your brain, you lose neural connections.

● Choosing to do something incredibly hard (like cold plunging) builds resilience, making non-chosen challenges significantly easier to handle.

● The more hard stuff you do, the more it can provide a dopamine response, making you enjoy difficult activities.

● Building positive momentum starts with small wins, such as making your bed first thing in the morning.

● Every action you take reinforces the identity of the person you are becoming.

● You will pay for cheap food one way or the other: either less upfront and more in medical bills later, or a little more upfront and no medical bills later.

● Nutrition should prioritize animal-based products, supplemented seasonally and locally with plants, while mitigating anti-nutrients.

● Organ meats are excellent sources of micronutrients that are crucial for endurance, especially when the body is under stress.

If you’re a parent or entrepreneur, chances are you’re running on too little sleep, too much stress, and maybe a little too much coffee. Supplements can help — but only if you take them the right way.

In this episode, I break down 8 simple hacks that make your supplements actually work for you. These are research-backed, practical strategies that save you time, energy, and money while helping you perform at your best.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

• Why collagen needs vitamin C to actually repair joints, skin, and hair

• The one time you should megadose creatine (hint: after a sleepless night)

• How magnesium glycinate can help you fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer

• The Omega-3 + Vitamin D duo that supports both longevity and brain health

• Why electrolytes in the morning are more powerful than a second cup of coffee

• How cacao in your coffee boosts focus (and circulation) without the jitters

• The right-side pill hack that makes sleep aids work faster

• A simple fiber trick that lowers cholesterol without statins

Whether you’re trying to get more energy, slow aging, or just survive a toddler who thinks 3 AM is party time, these supplement hacks are designed for real life — not lab conditions.

📖 Studies Mentioned:

• Omega-3s slow biological aging (Nature Aging, 2024)

• Vitamin D improves mood & brain health (Nutrients, 2025)

Have you ever wondered if that lemon fresh cleaner under your sink, laundry detergent, that Febreze, or even the lotion we put on in the morning could be quietly wrecking our hormones?

Jared St. Clair, owner of Vitality Nutrition and host of Vitality Radio, shares his insights on the supplement industry. He describes how chemicals disrupt hormones in products and the environment. These chemicals mimic hormones and block cell receptors, leading to reduced hormone levels, like testosterone, for men and women. Jared states that hormone increase without clearing blockages causes issues. He suggests a two-part process: detoxifying the liver, then cleansing the endocrine system with indole-3 carbonyl, DIM, and calcium deglucrate. This method supports the body's hormone function.

Key Takeaways

• Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals (EDCs): Many daily products (cleaners, detergents, beauty products, scented items, nonstick cookware) and environmental factors contain EDCs that mimic natural hormones and block cell receptors, causing hormonal imbalance.

• Impact on Hormones: EDCs lead to cellular confusion, reduce natural hormone production (e.g., significant drops in testosterone levels over decades for men), and impair hormone message delivery, affecting muscle building, fat loss, libido, and well-being.

• Detoxification Strategy: It is essential to detoxify the endocrine system rather than just boost hormones.

• Two-Phase Detox Process:

• 1. Liver Detox: Perform a 30-60 day liver detox to help metabolize and eliminate toxins, ensuring healthy bowel movements and hydration. Tylenol is a significant liver stressor; natural alternatives or daily gentle liver support (NAC, dandelion root) are recommended.

  2. Endocrine Detox: Follow with 3-4 months of endocrine system cleansing using phytochemicals like indole-3 carbonyl (I3C), DIM, and calcium deglucrate to unlock blocked cell receptors.

• Incremental Lifestyle Changes: Replace chemical-laden products (scented items, nonstick cookware, plastic) with natural alternatives (vinegar, water, lemon oil, baking soda, borax, ecloths, wood utensils) incrementally to avoid overwhelm.

• Jared's Recommendations: Jared suggests a personal detox schedule of one-month liver detox twice a year (January/February and July/August), combined with a couple of months of endocrine detox, potentially increasing to three months on, three months off. He also recommends using aluminum-free baking soda for supplementation (Rumford brand).

• Industry Background: Jared's family business, Vitality Nutrition, started in 1977, highlighting his deep roots and long experience in the health and supplement industry.
