He also breaks down the research on strength, cognition, depression, menopause, and bone density while revealing the simple mistake that causes many people to give up on creatine before it has a chance to work.

The Truth About Cortisol Face and The Exact Steps To Fix It

Millions of people are looking into their phone cameras and wondering why their face suddenly appears puffier, rounder, or more tired. The internet calls it “cortisol face,” but the truth is more complicated: cortisol itself is essential for survival, and the real danger may be a stress rhythm that never properly switches off. In this episode, Dr. Josh Axe explains how poor sleep, blood-sugar instability, fluid retention, chronic inflammation, emotional overload, and disrupted hormone signaling can all change what you see in the mirror—and why creams and cosmetic treatments may never address the underlying cause. Learn the practical correction protocol designed to help restore your natural hormone rhythm, reduce the visible signs of stress, and address the problem beneath the surface.

Why Are Kids So Sick Today? The 5 Things Every Parent Needs To Know | Dr. Tony Ebel

What if your child’s anxiety, ADHD, sensory issues, gut problems, sleep struggles, or chronic illness weren’t just genetic — and weren’t only caused by toxins? In this episode, Dr. Tony Ebel reveals the hidden “sympathetic stress loop” he believes keeps many children stuck in survival mode, unable to fully heal even after diet changes, supplements, detoxes, and conventional treatment. Dr. Ebel also shares the shocking personal story of his son Oliver, who doctors said had only a 20% chance of surviving to age one and a 99% chance of epilepsy, autism, or cerebral palsy if he lived. What he did next became the foundation for the protocol he now uses to help children around the world.

You Were Lied To About Seed Oils! The Truth About Butter, Tallow & Olive Oil

For decades, Americans were told to replace butter with seed oils. Then the internet swung the other direction and declared seed oils a “mitochondrial toxin.” But what if both sides are missing the real problem? In this episode, Dr. Josh Axe breaks down the seed oil debate using the studies on both sides — including data showing higher linoleic acid intake was associated with 15% lower cardiovascular deaths and 21% lower heart disease, while other trials suggest replacing saturated fat with omega-6-rich oils may increase cardiovascular risk.

What if you could naturally make your own version of Ozempic every time you eat the right meal? In this episode, Dr. Josh Axe breaks down the exact foods, supplements, probiotics, and meal timing strategies that help your gut activate GLP-1, the hormone that tells your brain you’re full, steadies blood sugar, and shuts down cravings. Millions of people are spending hundreds or even thousands of dollars a month on GLP-1 drugs, but Dr. Axe says the real “Nature’s Ozempic” starts in your grocery store — with protein, fiber, polyphenols, fermented foods, and berberine.  Uncover what’s really going on in your body with advanced biomarker testing for hormones, thyroid, and metabolism— plus a 1-hour consultation with a Senior Health Advisor! →  http://mybloodwork.com Download the FREE Nature’s Ozempic Guide: https://bit.ly/draxenaturesozempic Thank you to our sponsors!

The Shocking Reason Your Anxiety, Brain Fog & Bloating May Start in Your Gut

What if the anxiety, brain fog, cravings, and inflammation you’re trying to fix didn’t start in your brain, hormones, or immune system — but in the trillions of bacteria living inside your gut? In this episode, Dr. Josh Axe reveals the hidden chain reaction that can begin with low fiber, antibiotics, stress, and ultra-processed food — and may end in leaky gut, poor nutrient absorption, mood issues, obesity, autoimmune disease, and chronic inflammation.

The Hormone Expert: The Hidden "Gut Bacteria" Destroying Your Hormones!

You have been told that weight gain, crippling anxiety, and hot flashes are just a "normal" part of getting older. But what if your menopausal symptoms are actually a warning sign that your gut and liver are failing to detoxify your body? And what if the unresolved trauma from your childhood is physically aging your ovaries right now? In this episode, nurse practitioner and bestselling author Cynthia Thurlow exposes the clinical realities of perimenopause and menopause. We break down the "Estrobolome"—the hidden collection of gut bacteria responsible for removing estrogen from your body—and explain why common constipation is causing toxic hormones to recirculate and drive estrogen dominance. Cynthia also reveals why millions of women are prescribed synthetic thyroid medications (like Synthroid) that their bodies literally cannot use, and outlines the exact nutritional and supplemental protocols (including Creatine, Magnesium, and Myo-inositol) required to truly repair your endocrine system.

Complete Guide to Healing Leaky Gut Naturally | Dr. Josh Axe

You have been told your chronic fatigue, joint pain, and brain fog are just "stress" or IBS. But what if a Harvard medical discovery proved that a single biological switch in your stomach is actually the root cause of every symptom you are experiencing? Your gut lining is only one cell thick, and right now, it might be tearing apart. Uncover the exact biological mechanism behind "Leaky Gut" (intestinal permeability) and why it is the true driver behind autoimmune diseases, thyroid failures, and even neurological conditions like autism and anxiety. We explore the 2000 Harvard discovery of Zonulin—the protein switch that opens your gut junctions—and the exact environmental triggers forcing it open. I break down the terrifying truth about how chronic stress alters your gut bacteria in just two hours, and how daily exposure to Glyphosate (Roundup) is starving your beneficial microbes. Finally, I reveal my exact 6-step clinical protocol to permanently seal your gut lining, including the specific amino acids (L-Glutamine), minerals (Zinc Carnosine), and soil-based probiotics required for total cellular repair.

What the Bible Says About HEALING Leaves

In 2008, Jordan Rubin was the CEO of one of the largest natural health companies in the world when he was diagnosed with a fast-growing, metastatic cancer and given just 90 days to live. Instead of accepting a death sentence, he fired his oncologist, locked himself away for 40 days, and developed one of the most comprehensive spiritual and physical healing protocols ever documented. In this episode, we dive into the untold secrets of ancient medicine. We explore why unhealed emotional trauma and unforgiveness act as severe cellular toxins, and why repenting is just as crucial as detoxing your liver. We also decode the forgotten science of "healing leaves"—explaining how the specific tannins found in blackberry, raspberry, and oak leaves can physically tighten leaky gut and reverse chronic digestive disease.

Stem Cell Scientist: The Secret to HEALING Your Body is Hiding From You

You don’t need to spend tens of thousands of dollars on exotic injections to heal your body. You already possess the ultimate, built-in repair system: your own stem cells. The problem? By the time you reach your mid-30s, the red marrow in your bones converts to fatty marrow, leading to a staggering 90% drop in circulating stem cells. In this episode, stem cell scientist Christian Drapeau reveals the exact mechanisms behind human aging and how disease is simply a failure of endogenous repair. We discuss the clinical data proving that a 3-day fast triggers massive stem cell proliferation. We also decode 3,000-year-old Chinese medicine secrets, revealing the specific plants—like Fo-Ti, Goji Berry, Sea Buckthorn, and Blue-Green Algae—that actively mobilize stem cells from your bone marrow and drive them directly into injured tissues.

Burn Fat, Build Muscle, Live a LOT Longer

In this episode, I’m breaking down the four pillars of recomposition to help you shrink your body fat, build lean muscle, and reclaim the energy you had in your 20s. For 30 years, the fitness world has preached the same rule: you have to "bulk" to gain muscle, or "cut" to lose fat. But modern science shows us a different path. It is entirely possible to do both at the same time through a process called Body Recomposition.

What Happens If You Don't Eat for 72 Hours? | Complete Fasting Guide

Fasting is one of the most powerful healing practices in human history—it’s free, requires zero equipment, and your body is literally designed for it. But while it sounds simple, there is a wrong way to do it, especially when it comes to the hormonal "engine switch" that happens in the first 24 hours. In this episode, I walk you through exactly what happens in your body during a 3-day fast, from clearing out "zombie cells" to the 60% drop in aging markers.

Parents Have 3 YEARS to Get this Right. Psychoanalyst Explains | Erica Komisar

I have spent decades helping patients heal through diet, exercise, and natural remedies, but there is one injury that supplements can't fix: emotional trauma. Whether it’s "Big T" trauma or the "Little t" trauma of chronic neglect, these emotional scars manifest as autoimmune disease, cancer, and hormone imbalances later in life. In this episode, psychoanalyst Erica Komisar joins me to explain why the first three years of life are the "critical period" for physical health and how we can heal the mind-body connection. We explore the mechanics of the HPA Axis, focusing on the Amygdala (the stress "on" switch) and the Hippocampus (the "off" switch). Erica explains how early childhood stress can "burn out" the brain's ability to regulate cortisol, leading to a permanent state of survival mode. We also discuss the definition of Depression (preoccupation with past loss) versus Anxiety (preoccupation with future loss) and how both act as pathogens on the human immune system.

Women NEED to Know This Before Getting on HRT

"Should I be on HRT?" is the number one question I'm asked today, especially since the FDA removed the cancer warning from many hormone products in late 2025. While hormone therapy can be a life-changing intervention for some, it is often a "band-aid" that ignores the foundational failure of nutritional deficiencies and chronic stress. In this episode, I share the protocols I use in my clinic to help men and women reclaim their libido, clear brain fog, and lose stubborn weight by honoring the body’s natural design. We examine the critical difference between bioidentical hormones (structurally identical to the human body) and synthetic formulations that often come with higher risk profiles. Dr. Axe details the "Survival vs. Reproduction" hierarchy, explaining how high cortisol and insulin resistance act as the primary "thieves" of your sex hormones. Drawing from ancient medical wisdom and modern clinical studies, we break down the Astrobolom (the gut's role in estrogen metabolism) and the use of Yin-boosting foods like duck eggs and yams to naturally "cool and moisten" the body to stop hot flashes. We also dive into the tactical use of peptides like Kisspeptin and BPC-157 to restore cellular communication between the brain and reproductive organs.

The Natural Way to Fix Hormones & Skin: Restore Your Youthful Microbes

What if some of the most trusted ideas about cholesterol, heart disease, grains, fat, and even exercise were never as solid as we were told—and the consequences are now showing up in weaker muscles, damaged guts, and rising chronic disease?

In this episode, we uncover what today’s wheat does to the body that ancient wheat never did, why even one weekly “cheat meal” can disrupt inflammation and cholesterol for weeks, and what your doctor may not be telling you about statins, muscle loss, and the true drivers of heart disease.
