Are you still feeling sick even after leaving the moldy environment?
You're taking supplements… maybe spending thousands on treatments… yet the symptoms won't budge.
The truth? If you're not using binders correctly, you're bailing out a sinking ship while the tap is still running.

In this week's episode, Dr. Emily Rowe reveals why binder timing is the #1 mistake keeping people stuck on what she calls "the toxic merry-go-round." Most detox protocols fail not because they're wrong… but because they're incomplete.

What You'll Learn in This Episode:

✔️ Why your liver recycles up to 95% of mold toxins back into your bloodstream
✔️ The ONE binder you can take anytime (especially for brain fog + anxiety)
✔️ The 3–5 PM "Binder Happy Hour" that boosts detox without disrupting sleep
✔️ Why detoxing too fast can actually make you sicker
✔️ The step-by-step protocol we use with sensitive patients who can't tolerate most treatments

This isn't another vague detox talk.
This is the practical, clinical roadmap to using binders the RIGHT way.

Why This Episode Matters

Binders aren't optional in mold recovery.
They are the foundation — the part almost everyone gets wrong.

If you're tired of feeling stuck, inflamed, foggy, or reactive, this episode could finally explain why… and what to do next.

What if every cell in your body came with a built-in "expiration date"?
In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Bill Andrews — the geneticist whose team discovered telomerase, the enzyme that controls human aging and cellular lifespan.

At just 10 years old, Dr. Andrews' father told him: "You should find a cure for aging." He's spent his entire life trying to do exactly that.

In this powerful conversation, Dr. Andrews explains:

🔬 Why humans have a maximum lifespan of ~125 years — and how mathematics proves it
⏳ The "ride ticket" analogy that explains telomere shortening in under 60 seconds
💊 Why 90% of telomere supplements are scams that don't actually lengthen telomeres
🧬 What TelaVital really does — and what it can't do (yet)
♾️ How biological immortality could realistically become possible within our lifetime

One of the most shocking insights:
Many anti-aging companies don't lengthen telomeres — they just manipulate the measurements, like firing your least intelligent employees to raise your company's average IQ.

This is NOT pseudoscience. Not biohacking hype.
This is coming from the scientist who literally helped discover the enzyme that determines how long we live.

📌 If you're interested in longevity, telomeres, cellular aging, or real anti-aging science — this is a must-listen.

What if restoring your gut bacteria could rival chemotherapy—without the devastating side effects?

In this groundbreaking episode of Pod of Inquiry, Dr. Nathan Goodyear reveals how the gut microbiome, fecal transplants, and intratumoral therapies are reshaping the future of cancer treatment.

Dr. Goodyear, Medical Director at the Williams Cancer Institute, shares cutting-edge research that challenges everything we think we know about cancer, immunity, and modern oncology.

🔥 What You'll Learn in This Episode:

➡️Why 25% of 2-year-olds have zero beneficial gut bacteria—and how this ties into rising cancer rates
➡️How fecal microbiota transplants (FMT) are turning non-responders into immunotherapy responders
➡️The shocking way chemotherapy creates cell senescence, potentially sabotaging long-term immunity
➡️The cancer-parasite debate finally explained—what ivermectin & fenbendazole can and cannot do
➡️How traditional biopsies may spread cancer, and why intratumoral therapy is a paradigm shift
➡️The 53% "no evidence of disease" rate Dr. Goodyear achieved in Stage 4 prostate cancer patients
➡️Why these advanced treatments are happening in pristine facilities in Cabo, Mexico—and not the U.S.

⚠️ Why This Conversation Matters:

The current "war on cancer" is failing—and younger people are getting sick at alarming rates.
This episode breaks down why aging and cancer are fundamentally connected, why trust in medicine is collapsing, and what you can do right now to protect yourself and your loved ones.

What does a 2-time whitewater slalom world champion have to do with solving obesity, GERD, and type 2 diabetes?

Everything.

In this week's episode of Pod of Inquiry, Dr. Stephen Barrett sits down with Fritz Haller—world champion athlete, Olympic coach, and CEO of Endolastic—to discuss a groundbreaking endoscopic technology that may transform the future of metabolic and gastrointestinal disease treatment.

⭐ What You'll Learn in This Episode

🔬 How a simple "rubber band gun" mechanism may outperform billion-dollar weight-loss drugs
🧬 The gut-brain pathway that controls metabolism—and how to reset it
🏅 Fritz Haller's journey from Olympic competition to medical innovation
⚕️ The science behind endoluminal tissue regeneration
📉 Why this approach may reshape treatment for GERD, obesity, fatty liver, and diabetes

🔥 Why this matters:

➡️100% of patients in early trials were able to stop acid reflux medications (PPIs)
➡️Reversal of type 2 diabetes, often within 2 weeks
➡️77% less invasive than gastric bypass
➡️5–7% weight loss → 55% reduction in fatty liver disease risk
➡️No permanent alterations to anatomy—your body heals naturally
➡️Potential widespread availability as early as 2026–2027

While GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy see 70% dropout rates, and traditional bariatric surgery often leads to weight regain, this regenerative approach aims to restore gut-brain communication, not bypass it.

This is not another fad or miracle claim—it's peer-reviewed research with hundreds of patients already showing life-changing results and FDA trials underway.
Fritz Haller's story proves that breakthroughs often come from unexpected places—and bold thinkers who refuse to settle.

Can a nerve regenerate without surgery?
This case suggests yes.

In this episode of Pod of Inquiry, Dr. Stephen Barrett sits down with Dr. Erin Nelson to review a rare EMG-documented case of nerve regeneration after ultrasound-guided Hydrodissection with D5W — no scalpel required.

A 56-year-old woman developed sudden foot drop due to deep peroneal nerve entrapment. After two D5W Hydrodissection sessions, a 4-month repeat EMG showed significant interval improvement in demyelination + axonal injury. Objective. Measurable. Independent neurologist confirmed.

🎯 What you'll learn in this episode:
• Why 5% dextrose (D5W) outperforms saline in Hydrodissection
• The exact protocol Dr. Nelson uses (volume, frequency, technique)
• When to choose Hydrodissection vs. surgical decompression
• Implications for patients with diabetic neuropathy
• The difference between glucose puncture vs Hydrodissection

This may become one of the most important clinical conversations in the nerve pain / peripheral neuropathy space.

In this eye-opening episode, Dr. Stephen L. Barrett sits down with Dr. Eric Williams, the surgeon who rediscovered Soleal Sling Syndrome — a once-forgotten cause of tibial nerve entrapment that explains why so many "tarsal tunnel" surgeries fail.

Until Dr. Williams' groundbreaking 2009 research, this condition was virtually invisible in modern medicine. Now, his work has revolutionized how surgeons diagnose and treat proximal tibial nerve entrapments with life-changing results.

🎯 What You'll Learn:

🔍 The "Open Eyeball Sign" — a clinical pearl that confirms the diagnosis
💪 Why flexor hallucis longus weakness is the key to identifying soleal sling
⚡ How to differentiate Soleal Sling Syndrome from Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome
🚫 Why traditional compartment releases fail (and what to do instead)
🧠 The link between DVT, post-phlebitic pain, and nerve compression
🦶 Surgical insights — medial vs. posterior vs. lateral approaches
📈 Clinical outcomes — 92% success rate in trauma patients

💬 Dr. Barrett's Takeaway:

"The eyes can't see what the mind doesn't know."
