444: Why 'Clean' Beauty Products Fail: The Silver Solution Your Skin Actually Needs with Steve Revelli
Have toxic skin care myths been keeping the most powerful anti-aging element from us?! In this eye-opening episode Steve Revelli, head scientist at Silver Biotics, shares the surprising truth behind silver in skincare and wellness products. Most of us think of silver as jewelry or something that tarnishes, but this misunderstood element has powerful antimicrobial properties that can transform your approach to skincare, wound healing, and muscle recovery. Steve explains how silver has been used for millennia to fight pathogens and why it fell out of favor due to misclassification as a heavy metal. Learn how proper silver formulations target harmful bacteria, yeast, and mold without disrupting beneficial microorganisms—unlike harsh chemical antimicrobials that destroy everything and potentially disrupt hormones. We explore the pressing concerns about toxic ingredients in skincare products, why many natural alternatives seem to fall short in delivering expected results, and why silver is showing promising results for aging skin, faster wound healing with less scarring, and enhanced muscle recovery after workouts.

Here she reveals which trendy wellness treatments actually work and which are simply expensive marketing hype.

441: Creatine & The Midlife Woman with JJ Virgin
Is the supplement you've been avoiding actually the key to aging powerfully? At 61, JJ Virgin is challenging everything midlife women have believed about creatine. In this eye-opening conversation, JJ explains why creatine isn't just for bodybuilders but might be essential for women's cognitive function, energy production, and even skin health after 40. She dives into how women naturally store less creatine than men, why our bodies produce only about half what we need daily, and why traditional cooking methods destroy what little creatine exists in our food. She shares a revolutionary form of creatine that eliminates the bloating women typically experience, her exact dosage recommendations (including her emergency protocol for jet lag and sleep deprivation), and how creatine has helped her build more muscle in her 60s than she had decades ago. If you're tired of being told to "take it easy" or "accept" less than favorable midlife changes, this conversation will completely reshape what you believe is possible for your body after 40 and how creatine might just be your missing link.

440: The Olive Oil Scandal: Why Your 'Healthy' Oil Might Be Making You Sick with TJ Robinson
Is the "healthy" olive oil in your kitchen actually harming your body? Join Natalie Jill and TJ Robinson, The Olive Oil Hunter and founder of Fresh Pressed Olive Oil Club, to uncover the disturbing truth about the olive oil industry. 70% of olive oils on American shelves aren't at all what they claim to be and most bottles have lost their health benefits before you even open them! TJ reveals how the "don't cook with olive oil" marketing myth was created to double industry profits, and why most people have never tasted true fresh-pressed olive oil. We discuss the health benefits of fresh-pressed olive oil and why the Mediterranean diet owes its success to this liquid gold, and why the peppery kick in authentic olive oil is actually your body's inflammation fighter. This conversation will transform how you think about this essential kitchen staple and might be the simplest change you can make for better health.
