Episode #139: Dr. David Minkoff: Proteolytic Enzymes, Amino Acids, EMFs, Biofilms, and Heavy Metals

My guest this week is Dr. David Minkoff with LifeWorks Wellness Center. In this episode, Dr. David Minkoff and I discuss how to optimize health and the unique methods and lens that Dr. Minkoff uses in order to help people with his unique approach to medicine. In this episode we cover everything from peptides to ozone to cooking with tinfoil. We cover quite a few topics that give you little tips on how to make your life healthier. There are lots of options that are virtually free as well as more expensive ideas such as doing maintenance IV ozone treatments multiple times a year.

He also authors two weekly newsletters, the BodyHealth Fitness Newsletter and the Optimum Health Report.
