  • Mercury & Alzheimer’s: What Your Dentist Isn’t Telling You About Silver Fillings With Anita Vazquez-Tibau
    Feb 5 2026

    Could the silver fillings in your mouth be damaging your brain? In today’s episode, I interview Anita Vazquez-Tibau, an international advocate and researcher dedicated to ending the global use of toxic mercury in dentistry. Together, we dive into the shocking truth about dental amalgam fillings, which contain up to 54% mercury, a known neurotoxin.


    I was astounded to learn that despite the risks, the American Dental Association still claims that these fillings are safe. Anita explains how mercury not only poses a risk to your brain health but can also lead to neurodegeneration, including Alzheimer’s. We also discuss the global fight against mercury dental fillings, the Minamata Convention, and what you can do to protect your health if you have mercury fillings.


    If you or someone you love is dealing with cognitive decline, this episode could be an eye-opener.


    “The key is to have a good biological dentist who knows how to do oral surgery. Clean out everything and just say: Stop there. I don’t want an implant. I would like a removable appliance.”

  • Can Plasma Exchange Slow or Reverse Cognitive Decline? A Conversation With Dr. Brad Younggren
    Jan 29 2026

    Alzheimer’s doesn’t begin with sudden memory loss. It begins decades earlier with systemic breakdowns that modern medicine continues to miss. And by the time someone is diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, the damage seems full-blown. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Brad Younggren to discuss why Alzheimer’s is less a mystery of missing science and more a failure of how our healthcare system is designed.


    We explore therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) and why removing harmful inflammatory proteins, immune antibodies, plastics, and toxic exposures from the bloodstream may represent a powerful new frontier in brain health, longevity, and chronic disease care. Dr. Younggren shares how this decades-old hospital procedure is being safely re-engineered for outpatient use and why it’s showing promise for dementia, autoimmune illness, and accelerated aging.


    We also discuss why the exposome, the total toxic burden from plastics, heavy metals, mold, and environmental chemicals, plays a far bigger role in cognitive decline than most people realize. From immune modulation to biological age reversal, this conversation challenges the idea that Alzheimer’s is inevitable or untreatable.


    If you care about preventing cognitive decline, extending brain healthspan, and understanding why the medical system often fails Alzheimer's patients, this episode opens your eyes to what’s possible.

  • Parasites, Toxins, and Alzheimer’s: Dr. Josh Helman’s Q&A Episode
    Jan 8 2026

    Do you have a brain health question you are afraid to ask? In this special Q&A episode, I’m answering the most pressing questions I receive about brain health, Alzheimer’s prevention, spike protein exposure, detoxification, parasites, fasting, and longevity. These are complex, often controversial topics, and my goal is to cut through fear, misinformation, and oversimplified advice with evidence-based clarity and real-world clinical experience.


    I explain what we currently know about spike proteins and what safe, physician-guided detoxification actually looks like. We explore glutathione as a foundational detox molecule, why overaggressively breaking down biofilms can backfire, and how lifestyle interventions can improve brain resilience even when damage has already occurred.


    This episode also dives into parasites, heavy metals, mold toxins, and how to separate legitimate detox science from marketing hype. I answer practical questions about fasting, antioxidants, supplements, affordability, and what truly moves the needle for protecting your brain long term.


    Most importantly, I want you to leave this conversation with hope. There is no single magic fix—but there is a powerful toolbox that can improve brain health, slow decline, and in many cases, support meaningful recovery.


    “You do not need lots of expensive boutique tests and exotic supplements to meaningfully protect your brain. Diet, exercise, cognitive training, and vascular risk management using low-tech components definitely improve cognition.”

  • Mold & Mycotoxins Linked to Dementia and Alzheimer’s (What You Must Know) with John Bohde
    Dec 25 2025

    Could hidden dangers in your home be impacting your brain health? In this eye-opening conversation, discover how mold and mycotoxins might be contributing to cognitive decline and Alzheimer's disease.


    I interview John Bohde, co-founder and VP of The Mold Pros, to discuss the shocking connection between mold exposure, mycotoxins, and cognitive decline. John explains how mold can contribute to dementia and brain fog, often in ways we don't immediately recognize.


    As a leader in the mold inspection and remediation industry, John highlights environmental triggers that can be overlooked, even in homes that appear clean and well-maintained. We talk about how mold can release mycotoxins into the air and what that means for your health.


    John shares recommendations for identifying hidden mold and mycotoxins in your environment, emphasizing the importance of a proper moisture assessment and advanced testing for those dealing with chronic illness or dementia. Plus, we discuss how the remediation process has evolved and how you can protect yourself from environmental illness.


    “Everybody thinks, oh, my house is fine. I'm a great housekeeper, and therefore I don't have a problem. One, it oftentimes has nothing to do with how well you keep your home. It's really around how much moisture is in that environment. Second, mold spores are microscopic–you just can't see them.”
