  • You've Been Detoxing Wrong This Whole Time ft. Dr. Rahm, Dr. Kim & Dr. Peatross | TUH #289 23.07.2026 15min
    Most people grab a binder or start a cleanse and go straight to war on mold, Lyme, and heavy metals. Doing it in that order can make you far sicker than the toxins ever did. In this one, we break down why your drainage has to open first, the quiet signs it's blocked, and why the real problem almost never shows up on a 'normal' bloodwork panel. If you've been chasing symptoms no test can explain, this conversation will change how you think about detox for good.

  • 288. Koa Smith: You're Facing Your Fear the Wrong Way. A Top Big-Wave Surfer's Method 21.07.2026 1h
    You think some people are just born without fear, but my guest Koa Smith has spent 15 years paddling into waves big enough to kill him, and he'll tell you the opposite: fear never leaves, the whole game is what you do when it shows up. After a reef injury knocked him unconscious underwater and left him eight months numb, depressed, and unable to get a straight answer from a doctor, he clawed his way back with forest time, breathwork, meditation, clean food, and real sleep instead of a prescription. This isn't really a surfing video, it's about the same fear that keeps you from a hard conversation, a new business, or a decision you've been avoiding, and how getting clear lets you finally see through it.

  • 287. Live at the Southern Utah Holistic Health Summit 2026 16.07.2026 1h 24min
    For 22 years, I predicted death for life insurance companies. One pattern showed up in file after file: most "genetic" conditions have no gene behind them. Ask your doctor which gene causes your blood pressure, your autoimmune condition, or your ADHD, and most can't answer, because it doesn't exist. What actually runs in your family is a nutrient deficiency, not a disease, and once your body gets what it's missing, the disease often clears on its own. This isn't medical advice, so bring this to your own doctor before you assume anything is permanent.

  • 286. Dr. Jordan Metzl: Why Movement Is a First-Line Drug for Depression 14.07.2026 1h 7min
    I sat down with Dr. Jordan Metzl, a sports-medicine physician who's convinced that the reason most of us can't stay consistent isn't discipline or knowledge, it's motivation, and he says you can actually engineer it by "lowering the cost to act." We get into exercise as a literal medicine that would beat almost any drug if it came in a pill, why fun is the real holy grail of compliance, and how movement can go head-to-head with antidepressants for everyday anxiety and depression. If you've been white-knuckling your way through willpower and losing, this one's going to change how you think about getting off the couch.

In this episode, I break down how to tell if chronic inflammation has set in, why it's driving some of the most serious diseases we face, and the simple, low-cost changes I use to cool it down: diet, sleep, stress, hydration, cold showers, red light, and a few key supplements. There's one daily habit that costs less than a dollar and one 30-second trick I promise you won't quit after seven days, but you'll have to listen to find out why. Hit play, and remember: it's just science.  CLICK HERE TO BECOME GARYS VIP!: https://bit.ly/4ai0Xwg Thank you to our partners A-GAME: “ULTIMATE15” FOR 15% OFF: http://bit.ly/4kek1ij AION: “ULTIMATE10” FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/4h6KHAD AIRES: "ULTIMATE20 " FOR 20% OFF: https://bit.ly/4a3Duze BAJA GOLD: "ULTIMATE10" FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/3WSBqUa BODYHEALTH: “ULTIMATE20” FOR 20% OFF: http://bit.ly/4e5IjsV COLD LIFE: THE ULTIMATE HUMAN PLUNGE: https://bit.ly/4eULUKp CYMBIOTIKA: "ULTIMATE10" FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/4tjyluP GENETIC METHYLATION TEST (UK ONLY): https://bit.ly/48QJJrk GENETIC TEST (USA ONLY): ⁠https://bit.ly/3Yg1Uk9 GOPUFF: GET YOUR FAVORITE SNACK!: https://bit.ly/4obIFDC H2TABS: “ULTIMATE10” FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/4hMNdgg HEALF: 10% OFF YOUR ORDER: https://bit.ly/41HJg6S PEPTUAL: “TUH10” FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/4mKxgcn SNOOZE: LET’S GET TO SLEEP!: https://bit.ly/4pt1T6V WHOOP: JOIN & GET 1 FREE MONTH!: https://bit.ly/3VQ0nzW Watch  the “Ultimate Human Podcast” every Tuesday & Thursday at 9AM EST: YouTube: https://bit.ly/3RPQYX8 Podcasts: https://bit.ly/3RQftU0 Connect with Gary Brecka Instagram: https://bit.ly/3RPpnFs TikTok: https://bit.ly/4coJ8foX: https://bit.ly/3Opc8tf Facebook: https://bit.ly/464VA1H LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/4hH7Ri2 Website: https://bit.ly/4eLDbdU Merch: https://bit.ly/4aBpOM1 Newsletter: https://bit.ly/47ejrws Ask Gary: https://bit.ly/3PEAJuG Timestamps 00:00 - Intro of Show 00:18 - What inflammation actually is 00:52 - Signs you might be inflamed 01:30 - How cytokines drive chronic inflammation 02:10 - Anti-inflammatory diet basics 02:48 - Exercise and movement 03:08 - Managing chronic stress 03:24 - Quality sleep and your bedroom 04:12 - Hydration and mineral salt 04:42 - Cold exposure and cold showers 05:30 - Red light therapy and photobiomodulation 06:35 - Omega-3, turmeric, and curcumin 07:20 - Practical steps to start today 08:45 - Hydrogen water on the go 09:25 - Final habits and recap Disclaimer: This podcast is for informational purposes only and does not provide medical advice.

  • 282. Dr. Taryn Marie Stejskal: You're Not Resilient. You're Just Coping. Here’s 5 Practices of Highly Resilient People 30.06.2026 1h 11min
    Roughly 82% of autoimmune diseases show up in women, and the cause may not be what you think. In this episode, I sit down with resilience researcher Dr. Taryn Marie to unpack how the stress you hide rewires your nervous system, why "toughing it out" is actually the opposite of resilience, and the three questions I'm now asking myself every morning. She also opens up about the 20-year secret she hid from everyone and a study where babies who had food, water, and everything but one thing still didn't survive.

  • 280. Will Harlow: STOP Losing Muscle After 50 (Do This Instead) 29.06.2026 52min
    A 30-second test with nothing but a chair can tell you whether you'll be independent or dependent at 80. Most people score lower than they expect and don't find out until something goes wrong. Here's the stat that stopped me cold: for older adults, the hip often breaks before the fall. The bone gives out first. The fall is what happens next. And most doctors never mention it. UK physiotherapist Will Harlow breaks down why your knee pain usually isn't coming from your knee, how even people in their 90s rebuilt leg strength by 175% in eight weeks, and the one movement test that predicts your longevity better than most bloodwork panels.

  • 279. There's Microplastics Already Inside Your Body. Here’s How to Detox Microplastics Fast 18.06.2026 12min
    You might think microplastics are an ocean problem, but research suggests you're carrying roughly a credit card's worth of plastic inside your body right now, circulating through your bloodstream and settling into your organs, your brain, and even reproductive tissue. In this episode, I break down how plastic gets in and walk you through my 5-step protocol to lower your total burden: filtering your water, never heating food in plastic, supporting gut motility, regular sauna use, and boosting your body's own glutathione and antioxidant pathways. No single step reverses years of accumulation, but when you stop overwhelming the system and start supporting it, you work with the biology you already have.

  • 278. Dr. Jason Snibbe: On Why Meniscus Surgery Backfires, Prehab, Peptides, & Robotic Joint Surgery 16.06.2026 56min
    Most people are told a torn meniscus needs surgery to "clean it out".  But in this episode, orthopedic surgeon Dr. Jason Snibbe tells me that roughly 30% of those patients end up needing a full knee replacement within three to six months, because the cleanout itself is trauma that speeds up the joint's breakdown. Instead, he uses a simple platelet-rich plasma injection that gets many patients 70 to 80% better from a single shot, sending them back to tennis and golf without ever going under the knife. As he put it to me, "I don't operate on your MRI, I operate on how you feel." We also get into "prehab," why your knee pain often starts in your hip, how robotic surgery spares the muscle older methods destroy, and why his patients are walking within an hour of a joint replacement.  CLICK HERE TO BECOME GARY’S VIP!: https://bit.ly/4ai0Xwg Shop Snibbs (Dr. Snibbe's shoe brand): https://bit.ly/3SnPpmk   Connect with Dr. Jason Snibbe Website: https://bit.ly/3S0qFAD   YouTube: https://bit.ly/4vPOUju   Instagram: https://bit.ly/4vNGUzp  Facebook:  ​​https://bit.ly/43Am2zG  TikTok: https://bit.ly/4eJzl76   Thank you to our partners A-GAME: “ULTIMATE15” FOR 15% OFF: http://bit.ly/4kek1ij  AION: “ULTIMATE10” FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/4h6KHAD  AIRES: "ULTIMATE20 " FOR 20% OFF: https://bit.ly/4a3Duze  BAJA GOLD: "ULTIMATE10" FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/3WSBqUa  BODYHEALTH: “ULTIMATE20” FOR 20% OFF: http://bit.ly/4e5IjsV  COLD LIFE: THE ULTIMATE HUMAN PLUNGE: https://bit.ly/4eULUKp  CYMBIOTIKA: "ULTIMATE10" FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/4tjyluP  GENETIC METHYLATION TEST (UK ONLY): https://bit.ly/48QJJrk  GENETIC TEST (USA ONLY): ⁠https://bit.ly/3Yg1Uk9  GOPUFF: GET YOUR FAVORITE SNACK!: https://bit.ly/4obIFDC  H2TAB: “ULTIMATE10” FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/4hMNdgg  HEALF: 10% OFF YOUR ORDER: https://bit.ly/41HJg6S  PEPTUAL: “TUH10” FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/4mKxgcn  SNOOZE: LET’S GET TO SLEEP!: https://bit.ly/4pt1T6V  WHOOP: JOIN & GET 1 FREE MONTH!: https://bit.ly/3VQ0nzW  Watch  the “Ultimate Human Podcast” every Tuesday & Thursday at 9AM EST: YouTube: https://bit.ly/3RPQYX8 Podcasts: https://bit.ly/3RQftU0 Connect with Gary Brecka Instagram: https://bit.ly/3RPpnFs TikTok: https://bit.ly/4coJ8foX: https://bit.ly/3Opc8tf Facebook: https://bit.ly/464VA1H LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/4hH7Ri2 Website: https://bit.ly/4eLDbdU Merch: https://bit.ly/4aBpOM1 Newsletter: https://bit.ly/47ejrws Ask Gary: https://bit.ly/3PEAJuG Timestamps 00:00 - Intro of Show 02:07 - Prehab: the missing Biohack 03:30 - The tourniquet that crushes your quad 05:52 - What a prehab cycle looks like 10:14 - Why movement protects cartilage 10:47 - Walking and the kinetic chain 14:57 - What robotic surgery really does 17:12 - Haptic tech: the saw never leaves bone 19:54 - A rehab that went wrong 22:40 - Walking within an hour of surgery 25:18 - Best peptides for recovery 27:15 - "I don't operate on your MRI." 33:27 - Gary's ACL and the 70% rule 37:17 - Why knee pain hides in the hip 38:35 - The shoe built for standing 44:16 - The future of orthopedic surgery 47:57 - The meniscus surgery trap 50:51 - Why a total shoulder feels brutal Disclaimer: This podcast is for informational purposes only and does not provide medical advice.

  • 276. Dr. John Kim: On Mold Toxicity, Mycotoxins, Heavy Metals, & Cellular Detox 09.06.2026 1h 11min
    You might think that once you tear out the moldy drywall and move into a clean house, your body finally gets to heal, but in this episode, Dr. John Kim and I get into why so many people do everything right and still can't shake the brain fog, the fatigue, and the gut chaos. The answer lives somewhere most testing never looks: a stuck "cell danger response," where your cells stay locked in defense mode like a fire alarm that won't stop blaring long after the fire is out. I'll walk you through how Dr. Kim uses his ENCORE method to finally shut that alarm off, because you can't out-biohack a body that's still convinced it's under attack.

    One in six teenagers right now has measurable hearing loss, and almost nobody is talking about it. In this conversation with Brandon Sawalich of Starkey Hearing Technologies, we pull back the curtain on what Brandon calls a “quiet pandemic” driven by earbuds, concerts, and a generation blasting sound directly into their cochlea. If you’re still pounding music through your earbuds on a daily basis, this episode is your wake-up call.

    I sat down with Dr. Courtney Conley and what she told me stopped me cold…your walking speed can predict dementia up to seven years before the first cognitive symptom appears, which is why scientists are arguing it should be added to blood pressure and temperature as the sixth vital sign. We got into the mechanism behind it: BDNF, hippocampal neurogenesis, and why 4,000 steps a day can cut dementia risk by roughly 50% and I walked away convinced this is the most under-prescribed medicine of the 21st century.

Then a doctor gave him three pieces of advice, and Anthony drove home and joined a boxing gym that same day.

    You're stretching wrong, and I didn't believe it either until Garry Lineham put his hands on me and corrected a decades-old flat arch, a torn bicep tendon limitation, and my hip rotation in 5 minutes! In this episode, the founder of Human Garage walks me through why every time you stretch a muscle your nervous system dumps adrenaline for four hours, how he reverse-engineered the answer in 17 months of solitary confinement after $2.5 million and 300 practitioners couldn't fix him, and why fascia, not your brain, is where your body actually stores trauma.

  • 271. Dr. Stephanie Haridopolos: On Screen Harms in Kids & the Surgeon General's New Advisory 21.05.2026 43min
    Since 2010, math scores in 13-year-olds have dropped 14%, reading has dropped 7%, and by 2050, 40% of kids are projected to have myopia and the Surgeon General's office just connected that curve to the screen in your child's hand. Today, I sat down with Dr. Stephanie Haridopolos, Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary of Health at HHS, to walk through the new advisory on screen harms, the 5-D framework parents can use today, and what bell-to-bell phone policies are actually doing in 37 states.

  • 270. Dr. Tania Dempsey: Mast Cells, Chronic Fatigue, & Hidden Inflammation 19.05.2026 1h 7min
    Up to 1 in 5 people may have this condition and never know it and the diagnoses they've been handed instead, from PCOS to IBS to chronic fatigue, may all be pointing at the same hidden cause. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Tania Dempsey, Johns Hopkins-trained internist and one of the leading researchers on Mast Cell Activation Syndrome, who tells me that 100% of her PCOS patients test positive for MCAS, and walks me through why mast cells may be the most overlooked driver of chronic illness in modern medicine. If you've been told your symptoms are idiopathic, or that nothing's wrong even though everything feels wrong, this is the conversation that finally connects the dots.
