    Episode 139: The Missing Link Between Oral Health and Total Body Healing with Dr. Dome Nischwitz
    Oct 23 2025
    Dr. Dome Nischwitz, a leader in biological dentistry and ceramic implantology, joins Dr. Whitfield to connect the dots between oral health and systemic inflammation. After placing over 5,000 ceramic implants and treating thousands of patients with chronic illness, Dr. Dome shares a truth most dentists won't tell you: the materials in your mouth might be keeping you sick. From mercury vapor exposure to hidden jaw infections called cavitations, he breaks down how conventional dental work creates a chronic inflammatory burden that affects everything from your sleep to your energy levels. Most surprising? The relief patients experience when they finally address the dead tissue, metals, and infections living silently in their mouths. This conversation will change how you think about that root canal, those metal fillings, and what optimal oral health actually looks like. IN THIS EPISODE WE’LL: Discover why losing just one millimeter of bite height cuts blood flow to your brain by 50%—and what this means for cognitive health and Alzheimer's risk Break through the confusion around root canals, cavitations, and why dentistry is the only medical field that leaves dead tissue in your body Transform your daily oral care routine with simple, toxin-free protocols using hydroxyapatite toothpaste, coconut oil pulling, and copper tongue scraping Identify the warning signs that previous dental work is contributing to your chronic inflammation, fatigue, or unexplained symptoms Understand why removing mercury fillings incorrectly can make you sicker—and what "safe removal" actually involves Dr. Dome's Website: http://drdomeofficial.com Dr. Dome's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drdome1/?hl=en Dr. Dome's Book: It's All In Your Mouth: https://www.amazon.com/Its-All-Your-Mouth-Biological/dp/1603589546 Dr. Whitfield’s SHARP Method: https://www.amazon.com/Method-Strategic-Holistic-Accelerated-Recovery/dp/B0DGFHMC16 Try Flow Products: https://flowpressousa.com/flow-products/?afmc=DRROBVIP Try Joovv and use code DRROB for $50 off: https://joovv.com/ Check out these episodes: The Truth About MOLD and Breast Explant and Breast Implant Illness: DOCTOR EXPLAINS Dr. Pompa on Still Feeling Sick After Explant: Breast Implants & Detox Lies with Robert Whitfield MD Links and Resources Let’s Connect Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/breast-implant-illness/id1678143554 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1SPDripbluZKYsC0rwrBdb?si=23ea2cd9f6734667 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@drrobertwhitfield?_t=8oQyjO25X5i&_r=1 IG: https://www.instagram.com/breastimplantillnessexpert/ FB: https://www.facebook.com/DrRobertWhitfield Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-robert-whitfield-md-50775b10/ X: https://x.com/rob_whitfieldmd Read this article - https://www.breastcancer.org/treatment/surgery/breast-reconstruction/types/implant-reconstruction/illness/breast-implant-illness Shop: https://drrobssolutions.com SHARP: https://www.harp.health NVISN Labs - https://nvisnlabs.com/ Get access to Dr. Rob's Favorite Products below: Danger Coffee - Use our link for mold free coffee - https://dangercoffee.com/pages/mold-free-coffee?ref=ztvhyjg JASPR Air Purifier - Use code DRROB for the Jaspr Air Purifier - https://jaspr.co/ Echo Water - Get high quality water with our code DRROB10 - https://echowater.com/ BallancerPro - Use code DRROBVIP for the world's leader in lymphatic drainage technology - https://ballancerpro.com Ultrahuman - Use code WHITFIELD10 for the most accurate wearable - https://www.ultrahuman.com/ring/buy/us/?affiliateCode=drwhitfield

    Episode 138: The Muscle Loss Crisis No One's Talking About with JJ Virgin
    Oct 16 2025
    JJ Virgin has watched women torture themselves for decades chasing a number on the scale, only to become weaker and more fragile in the process. In this conversation, she breaks down why body composition—not body weight—determines whether you age with strength or struggle with frailty. We get into the hidden dangers of GLP-1 medications when used without resistance training, why marathon runners have the same muscle mass as couch potatoes, and the three shifts that actually work: adequate protein, lifting heavy things, and walking daily. Whether you're recovering from explant surgery, navigating perimenopause, or just tired of feeling weak, this episode gives you the roadmap to rebuild resilience that lasts. IN THIS EPISODE WE’LL: Discover why your scale weight means nothing if you don't know what that weight is made of Break through the "skinny fat" trap that leaves women metabolically unhealthy despite normal BMI Transform your understanding of GLP-1 medications and why they're destroying muscle mass when used incorrectly Uncover the real reason a 90-year-old woman fell outside my office (and how you can prevent the same fate) Learn the three non-negotiable lifestyle shifts that protect strength, bone density, and metabolic health as you age Check out these episodes: Bioenergetic Strategies in Practice with Harry Massey: https://youtu.be/nir8JIHmUC8 Simple & Powerful Nutrition Strategies for Recovery: https://youtu.be/8mOjxL1ZQDw JJ Virgin's Podcast: Well Beyond 40: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/well-beyond-40/id911502027 JJ Virgin's Longevity Podcast: http://jjvirgin.com/after60 DEXA scans for body composition assessment: https://www.dexafit.com/services/dexa-scan JJ Virgin on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jj.virgin/?hl=en JJ Virgin on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9jpWhLL36llg1gvesoNlMw Let’s Connect Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/breast-implant-illness/id1678143554 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1SPDripbluZKYsC0rwrBdb?si=23ea2cd9f6734667 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@drrobertwhitfield?_t=8oQyjO25X5i&_r=1 IG: https://www.instagram.com/breastimplantillnessexpert/ FB: https://www.facebook.com/DrRobertWhitfield Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-robert-whitfield-md-50775b10/ X: https://x.com/rob_whitfieldmd Read this article - https://www.breastcancer.org/treatment/surgery/breast-reconstruction/types/implant-reconstruction/illness/breast-implant-illness Shop: https://drrobssolutions.com SHARP: https://www.harp.health NVISN Labs - https://nvisnlabs.com/ Get access to Dr. Rob's Favorite Products below: Danger Coffee - Use our link for mold free coffee - https://dangercoffee.com/pages/mold-free-coffee?ref=ztvhyjg JASPR Air Purifier - Use code DRROB for the Jaspr Air Purifier - https://jaspr.co/ Echo Water - Get high quality water with our code DRROB10 - https://echowater.com/ BallancerPro - Use code DRROBVIP for the world's leader in lymphatic drainage technology - https://ballancerpro.com Ultrahuman - Use code WHITFIELD10 for the most accurate wearable - https://www.ultrahuman.com/ring/buy/us/?affiliateCode=drwhitfield

    Episode 137: Environmental Toxins Are Messing With Your Body—Here's How to Fight Back with Dr. Aly Cohen
    Oct 9 2025
    Rheumatologist and environmental health expert Dr. Aly Cohen reveals a shocking truth: we're all toxic until proven otherwise. From the outdated 1974 Safe Drinking Water Act to the 10,000+ untested chemicals in our food supply, she explains why our bodies are fighting an uphill battle against chronic inflammation. But here's the reality—you don't need to wait for government regulation to start making changes that matter. Dr. Cohen walks through high-yield, actionable changes anyone can make: reverse osmosis water filtration that's cheaper than you think, frozen USDA organic foods that democratize nutrition, and simple swaps that cut chemical exposure without breaking the bank. You'll walk away understanding that your immune system isn't broken—it's just overwhelmed—and you have way more control than you realize. IN THIS EPISODE WE’LL: Discover when to test and when to act—Dr. Cohen explains why everyone's toxic until proven otherwise, and which changes matter most right now Learn the one federal regulation that actually protects your food and how frozen USDA organics give you pesticide-free nutrition at a fraction of the cost Break down why your tap water is likely contaminated regardless of where you live, and how a $400 reverse osmosis system can save you money compared to carbon filters Expose how dust in your home concentrates chemicals from flame retardants, fragrances, and everyday products—plus the simple cleaning methods that actually work Transform your approach to inflammation by understanding how everyday chemical exposures mimic hormones, disrupt immune signaling, and drive everything from breast implant illness to autoimmune disease Let’s Connect Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/breast-implant-illness/id1678143554 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1SPDripbluZKYsC0rwrBdb?si=23ea2cd9f6734667 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@drrobertwhitfield?_t=8oQyjO25X5i&_r=1 IG: https://www.instagram.com/breastimplantillnessexpert/ FB: https://www.facebook.com/DrRobertWhitfield Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-robert-whitfield-md-50775b10/ X: https://x.com/rob_whitfieldmd Read this article - https://www.breastcancer.org/treatment/surgery/breast-reconstruction/types/implant-reconstruction/illness/breast-implant-illness Shop: https://drrobssolutions.com SHARP: https://www.harp.health NVISN Labs - https://nvisnlabs.com/ Get access to Dr. Rob's Favorite Products below: Danger Coffee - Use our link for mold free coffee - https://dangercoffee.com/pages/mold-free-coffee?ref=ztvhyjg JASPR Air Purifier - Use code DRROB for the Jaspr Air Purifier - https://jaspr.co/ Echo Water - Get high quality water with our code DRROB10 - https://echowater.com/ BallancerPro - Use code DRROBVIP for the world's leader in lymphatic drainage technology - https://ballancerpro.com Ultrahuman - Use code WHITFIELD10 for the most accurate wearable - https://www.ultrahuman.com/ring/buy/us/?affiliateCode=drwhitfield
