What does a 2-time whitewater slalom world champion have to do with solving obesity, GERD, and type 2 diabetes?

Everything.

In this week's episode of Pod of Inquiry, Dr. Stephen Barrett sits down with Fritz Haller—world champion athlete, Olympic coach, and CEO of Endolastic—to discuss a groundbreaking endoscopic technology that may transform the future of metabolic and gastrointestinal disease treatment.

⭐ What You'll Learn in This Episode

🔬 How a simple "rubber band gun" mechanism may outperform billion-dollar weight-loss drugs
🧬 The gut-brain pathway that controls metabolism—and how to reset it
🏅 Fritz Haller's journey from Olympic competition to medical innovation
⚕️ The science behind endoluminal tissue regeneration
📉 Why this approach may reshape treatment for GERD, obesity, fatty liver, and diabetes

🔥 Why this matters:

➡️100% of patients in early trials were able to stop acid reflux medications (PPIs)
➡️Reversal of type 2 diabetes, often within 2 weeks
➡️77% less invasive than gastric bypass
➡️5–7% weight loss → 55% reduction in fatty liver disease risk
➡️No permanent alterations to anatomy—your body heals naturally
➡️Potential widespread availability as early as 2026–2027

While GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy see 70% dropout rates, and traditional bariatric surgery often leads to weight regain, this regenerative approach aims to restore gut-brain communication, not bypass it.

This is not another fad or miracle claim—it's peer-reviewed research with hundreds of patients already showing life-changing results and FDA trials underway.
Fritz Haller's story proves that breakthroughs often come from unexpected places—and bold thinkers who refuse to settle.
