  3. 151. Ramses Alcaide: Brain Wearables, EEG, and the Future of Brain Health Tracking

    Chronic stress, cognitive overload, and neurodegenerative disease are rising as modern life pushes the brain beyond what it was designed to handle. At the same time, most people still have almost no visibility into how their brain is actual

  4. 150. Dr. Terry Grossman: Plasma Exchange, Detoxification, and the Future of Longevity Medicine

    Chronic inflammation, environmental toxins, and metabolic dysfunction continue to accelerate aging and chronic disease across modern populations. Many of the biggest drivers of health decline remain invisible, quietly accumulating in the bo

  5. 149. Kim Rogers: Parasites, Hidden Infections, and the Cleanse Protocol for Gut Health, Energy, and Recovery

  14. 140. Dr. Kelly Casperson: The Hormone Truth About Women's Longevity

    Most women are taught that aging means decline, less energy, less strength, and less desire. What if the real problem has never been age itself, but untreated hormone loss and outdated medical narratives. In this episode of Extend, we sit d

  15. 139. JJ Virgin: Muscle Over Weight Loss

    Most people are told to lose weight to get healthy. What if that mindset is the reason metabolic health keeps getting worse, muscle keeps disappearing, and fat loss never lasts. In this episode of Extend, we sit down with JJ Virgin, triple

  16. 138. Dr. Idrees Mughal: Why Most Viral Health Claims Fail

    Most people assume viral health advice is backed by solid science. What if much of it is built on cherry-picked studies, misleading mechanisms, and narratives designed to sell certainty rather than protect long-term health. In this episode

  17. 137. Ariana Thacker: Mold Toxicity, Treatment Protocols + Genetic Susceptibility

    Most people assume mold exposure causes allergies or respiratory issues. What if it is actually driving chronic inflammation, hormone disruption, and neurological symptoms that standard labs fail to detect. In this episode of Extend, we sit

  18. 136. Dr. Goodenowe: Plasmalogens and the Hidden Science of Longevity
