Welcome back to Health Unlocked! In today’s episode, Jasen Petersen explores a fascinating and refreshingly practical side of health innovation: how medical devices like IBAL are rewriting the rules of bringing new interventions to market. If you’ve ever wondered why some health-supporting products aren’t classified as drugs or supplements, or how the FDA draws that crucial line, you’ll love this discussion. Jasen, speaking from both professional and personal experience (post-lithotripsy, no less - ouch!), walks us through the surprising world of medical device regulation. He explains why IBAL, a micronutrient matrix designed to restore foundational cellular health, qualifies as a medical device rather than a drug and why that distinction could make innovative treatments far more accessible, affordable, and fast to reach those who need them most. Along the way, you’ll hear about strange regulatory quirks (like how toothpaste can be a cosmetic, a drug, or a device!), learn what it truly means for something to have a “PMI mechanism,” and get a behind-the-scenes look at how shifting the regulatory path from drugs to devices could transform healthcare innovation for both patients and investors. By the end, you’ll have a whole new appreciation for how creative science, regulatory strategy, and a bit of bold thinking can work together to unlock better health for everyone. Let’s dive in!

Welcome back to Health Unlocked: The Power of Salutogenesis, where we explore the science and mystery behind healing and what it really means to achieve lifelong wellness. In this episode, host Jasen Petersen dive deep into a groundbreaking perspective on aging - not as inevitable wear and tear, but as a process of "unfinished healing." Jasen unpacks the cell danger response (CDR) cycle and reveals how stress, both physical and emotional, can interrupt our body’s natural repair processes at the cellular level. Instead of seeing aging as just decline, Jasen shares research from Dr. Naviaux and others to reframe it as a backlog of repairs the body was never quite able to finish - leaving behind so-called "senescent" cells that subtly fuel dysfunction over time. The conversation goes further, exploring why persistent stress leads to cellular roadblocks, how chronic pain and lingering injuries are signals of incomplete healing, and why most of us "don’t bounce back" as quickly in later years. You'll also hear about the emerging promise of salutogenic therapies designed to support the body’s self-repair - and why targeted cellular support, like Jasen’s own product “IBAL”, is at the cutting edge of anti-aging and preventative health. Whether you’re interested in the science of longevity, new perspectives on daily wellness, or practical tips for supporting your body’s natural healing cycles, this episode is full of fascinating insights that will change the way you think about health and aging.

Welcome to "Health Unlocked: The Power of Salutogenesis", your go-to podcast for decoding the pathways to optimal health and well-being! In today's episode, host Jasen Petersen unpacks the intriguing concept of Salutogenesis—a groundbreaking approach introduced by medical sociologist Aaron Antonovsky in the late 1970s. Unlike traditional healthcare, which often zeroes in on treating diseases, Salutogenesis focuses on how we maintain and move towards health, even amidst life's challenges. We'll explore the health continuum, delve into the key components of a "sense of coherence"—comprehensibility, manageability, and meaningfulness—and discuss how this proactive philosophy can work harmoniously with conventional medical practices. Jasen will offer a systems-oriented perspective, elucidate the balance concept akin to a eudemonic scale, and share inspiring case studies, including the remarkable recovery of a diabetic patient through Salutogenic principles. Together, we'll examine the historical context, current challenges, and the promising future of a health-focused approach that prioritizes resilience and holistic well-being. Tune in as we discuss how society can shift from reactive disease management to fostering health, the role of nutrition, exercise, and stress management, and even the burgeoning field of ion biotechnology. Whether you're a healthcare professional or someone keen on elevating your health journey, this episode is packed with insights you won't want to miss. Let's unlock the secrets to thriving health, right here on "Health Unlocked: The Power of Salutogenesis"! Timestamps: 00:00 Discussing salutogenesis, contrasting traditional healthcare focus. 05:00 Stress balance determines positive or negative adaptation. 09:51 Ancient health was natural; today it's intentional. 12:29 Salutogenesis complements, doesn't replace, conventional medicine. 16:17 Changed ecosystem and habits hinder healthy eating. 20:56 Salutogenic treatment healed runner's wound rapidly. 24:43 Is scientific evidence available for this approach? 25:39 Nutrition, exercise, stress management improve resilience and health. 28:54 Supplements, drugs: Salutogenic approach or not? 32:40 Incentives needed for better nutrition and health. 39:07 Fewer side effects; detoxification may cause reactions. 40:39 Body clears junk, causing tiredness and sleepiness. 44:50 Insurance incentivizes exercise for systemic change. 3 Fun Facts: 1.
