Myers Detox Podcast

Are your "healthy" protein shakes loading your body with toxins? It's easy to assume supplements are clean, yet the data tells a very different story. When nearly half of protein powders exceed safety limits for heavy metals, it raises a serious question of whether they are helping or harming our bodies. 
Today I'm chatting with Oliver Amdrup-Chamby, CEO of Puori, to unpack what's really inside protein powders, collagen, and omega-3s. We talk about shocking industry findings, including testing that revealed widespread contamination, especially in plant-based proteins. Oliver shares how his company tests for over 200 contaminants and why transparency is the future. 
We also break down whey versus plant proteins, chocolate contamination, and how sourcing impacts your long-term health. If you're taking supplements daily, this conversation is essential. You'll learn what to look for on labels and how to make smarter choices. 
 
"Most pollution of our bodies doesn't come from a one-off exposure to a certain food. It comes from the accumulation of the things you're doing again and again." ~ Oliver Amdrup-Chamby
 
In This Episode:
- Oliver's backstory and why he co-founded Puori
- Omega-3 quality and longevity

Are your lights disrupting your hormones and sabotaging your sleep? Most people focus on diet and exercise but overlook light, yet it is one of the most powerful drivers of health. From your phone to your home lighting, the wrong exposure at the wrong time can throw off your circadian rhythm, spike cortisol, and leave you wired at night and exhausted in the morning.
In this episode, I sit down with Andy and Katie Mant, founders of Bon Charge, to break down how different types of light affect your body at a cellular level. We discuss how artificial light mimics midday sun signals and why morning sunlight is critical for serotonin and melatonin production.
We also explore how targeted light therapies can support skin health, recovery, detoxification, and energy, and practical biohacks you can implement immediately. If you want better sleep, balanced hormones, and improved recovery, this episode is for you!
 
"Blue light isn't bad. The key is to take in natural light, but block the artificial blue light after dark." ~ Katie Mant

Why are so many kids today struggling with autism, ADHD, and chronic illness, and why aren't we getting real answers? I've seen this pattern over and over again, and it challenges everything we've been told about what causes these conditions and whether they can be reversed.
In this episode, I sit down with Beth Lambert, founder of Documenting Hope, to unpack what's driving the explosion of childhood health issues. We explore the concept of "total load"– the cumulative impact of toxins, diet, stress, and environmental factors – and how it affects developing brains. 
Beth shares powerful case studies of children who have reversed autism, along with insights from her research and published work. We also talk about the importance of early intervention, the role of gut health and the nervous system, and what parents can start doing right now.
 
"There are so many paths to autism…but each child is experiencing a total load that's too great during their developmental years." ~ Beth Lambert

- Beth Lambert's origin story
- Why kids have more chronic illnesses today
