I've had the opportunity to interview some of the most amazing people already in just a few months. But you are literally, and I will say this in all honesty, going to be one of the smartest people that I've ever encountered or interviewed. But you opened this whole realm to me.

So when I get a client that has low testosterone, like earlier than normal, obviously sometimes it could be just some sort of like inherited, you know, hypogonadal condition that's just like an anomaly. But a lot of cases it's because of poor diet or lack of exercise or a slew of things that I could run a list down.

For stem cells, are there certain behaviors that we do that could cause them to stop producing earlier? Or is that kind of like negligent and there's really, it just kind of is what it is?

All right, everybody. Welcome back to the Dylan Gemelli podcast. So I have a guest today that I've really been waiting quite a while to interview, and I'm so thankful that he's given me the time today to go over some really intriguing topics with you today. So I'm going to introduce him and then give you a little bit of background on my experience with him as well. But
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
Yeah. So I want to talk about the inflammation part of it because you brought some intrigue to me on that aspect of it. So A couple things. Let's look at high C-reactive protein, for example, and we start to see those elevated. I see that in a lot of people that I coach and that I monitor. Would that be indicative of poor stem cell production or fluctuation throughout the body?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
Would that have something to do with it?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
What made you get into stem cells? How did you discover stem cells and why?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
I understand. Totally understand. So... Essentially, they're basically lost. They've lost their way and can't find where they're supposed to go to heal the proper injury. So I got it. So when it comes to tendonitis and arthritis and things of that nature, how do stem cells have any sort of relation to that?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
And I can tell you just through my own personal experience here, and once we get into the Stem Regen product itself, I'm just going to say that as I've used it now consistently, for several months, I've had this nagging and, and I granted, I beat myself up really bad with how I lift and throw things around.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
And I'm 43 years old, but I've had this terrible, like when I lift heavy, I get this nagging in my elbow. And I mean, it's prevalent and that has just continuously. And I'm going to talk more about other aspects of how it's helped me, but that has, I've had no relief for like two or three years. And I refuse to take like ibuprofen and things I've done. I'm not touching those things.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
And I've just been dealing with it and I have had no relief. I haven't switched much of anything aside from taking this. And I've noticed now the past, I'd say about, I've been on it since October. So what are we November three months, three and a half months. I've noticed just a continuous decline in that pain. And it's not just there.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
And we'll get into that later, but what is the correlation there? Is there any correlation at all? Totally.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
Beautiful. So I've been in several classes that I'm taking right now and a lot of study on just cellular repair and really more on mitochondrial function and repair. Do stem cells play any sort of role in cleaning up or fixing mitochondria? Is there any correlation there at all? Because I've never asked you this. I've never looked into this.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
And I'm just curious because it's on my things that I'm really digging into right now.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
Okay. I've got, I've, you've got me. So I have so much research because I, like, I, I do a lot of peptide discussions. And so BPC-157 and TB-500 are literally like the hottest thing in the world. I've been on these for years, but right now, especially, and so I'm interested and how the correlation there is on how it functions with stem cell production. Are you familiar with those two at all?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
Yeah, I didn't mean to bring that on you, but it just came into my head. It's like, well, this is like everything that I do. And I'm just looking at how it all correlates and relates. And it's just mind blowing to me because I you know, this is why I have people like you on so I can learn this and kind of deepen my knowledge base and understand. So that's, that's amazing. Here's another one.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
So I had, I just interviewed Dr. Gundry last week. And so you can imagine that went to gut health. So that then makes me wonder, next question, being that gut health is such a huge focus right now on, you know, every aspect of health that we see and hear about. Do stem cells have any correlation there with, you know, gut, leaky gut, you know, gut health in general? What do they play?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
How does their role there? Okay.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
Okay. All right. So I want to get into STEM region, but I have one more question before we go that direction that just kind of came to my mind. Cause I, you know, what, with what I do, I spend a lot of nights here just constantly reading. I'm up way later than my wife and I'm just knee deep and cause I'm all over the place in what I study. So I guess my question to you is, um,
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
Because you're so advanced on what you do and I'm sure you have to keep up on things constantly. Are there constant studies going on with stem cells and just how like knee deep are you in constant research and like looking into different aspects and methodologies? And do you conduct any of these yourself or how does that kind of work for your life?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
Yeah, I'm very curious.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
So just let's say it's 2025. So I don't know, think back maybe 10 years. How much change have you seen or expansion in the amount of studies that are being done? Like how has the popularity or focus risen on stem cell insight and research? Has it drastically changed or has it been pretty consistent?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
Well, and I can attest to that because there's such a lack of trust now and a deeper understanding of all of the things that have kind of gotten exposed.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
And so people are going to more like, you know, people like yourself, people like my podcast, where I get people like you on and they're listening to this far more and understanding and seeing the realities of what actually is going on and looking at the
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
prevention aspect instead of the treatment aspect and all of this i don't want to go off on a tangent but all this corruption is getting more exposed exposed exposed and we're seeing the science now the real science not the bs when they say oh trust the science when they're actually not even talking science they're trying to tell us what the science is and not study it and we've got so many deep thinkers now that are actually having a platform and the ability to speak
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
And so that's why it's so important we do things like this so we can educate. And so that's that's why I do what I do is, you know, try to be as versatile as I can be and show all of these different avenues. And then, you know, then you have a platform to to speak. And that's why these conventions are so amazing and all of these things we do.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
So, yeah, that's that's the goal is to just keep showing and educating and teaching and then you know, people will listen. They, they're definitely more apt to listen now than ever. And, and you can see that Christian with all the diseases and the problems and the things that go on, people are tired of it. And they know, they just know it's not normal to be that unhealthy.

Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
And especially with all of the advancements we have, I mean, you know, we, how many of these biohacking conventions are we at? And we see all of these new technologies and these ideas and these things, and you know, some of them are BS and some are not, but there's, there's ideas, you know? And so it's important.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
Right.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
Yes. But that's the world we live in. Right. When you said disruptor, because I wrote a paper on this in the year 2001. I mean, I barely had internet access to even write this paper, but I was talking about Suppressive therapy and the desire to keep people on suppressive therapy and how much money they would make as opposed to just curing it because curing it does not solve the money issue.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
Well, suppressive therapy does. I feel and I've always believed and I'm spiritual as can be that God put something here to cure everything. And that's my belief. And I'll take that to the grave. And I know some people may not agree, but I firmly believe that that fact that there's something here to cure everything, no matter what it is. So, you know, what you're saying couldn't be more true.

Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
Let's let's talk about stem regen now and kind of shift gears and talk about the product itself, how you kind of developed that product and what exactly does it do in general?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!

How long did it take you to actually like formulate all this and find all of these different compounds to put into it and then test them and trust them and see them working? What was the total like duration of all of this?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
So is there any correlation then with stem cells and like atherosclerosis? Is there any study or any focus on plaque, possible reversal, removal, opening, anything of that sort?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
Got it.

Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
it well and i kind of went over this with you i've talked to my viewers about it several times that i found out that i had um some plaque buildup in in my heart and you know i had a calcium score done and then i had a ct angio done and luckily caught it early enough to where it wasn't it's not like it's great but it's not end of the world either it's like a 35 blockage which

Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
didn't make any sense with my lifestyle and how I live and everything. And then I talked to you about my LP little a and that being the problem. And I've gone into that, you know, on the show several times. And so when I started to take stem regen, I had gotten my score, um, maybe a month or two before that. And I had gotten it quite a bit lower with the, um, medications I was using.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
Now, granted, I declined to use the statin when it's completely different route than what I was told. because I know better, the statin will actually increase your LP little a score. Anyway, I started to take PCSK9 inhibitors, which did lower my number because They tell you with an LP little a you test it once and that's all you ever need to test it.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
And you're basically they try to tell you you're kind of screwed. You know, it's just it is what it is. Well, I kind of refuse to believe that after I talked to enough higher end cardiologists and did my own studies. And so my my score was 330, which was the clear indication of where I got the plaque. And that's an inherited gene disorder. So no diet is going to fix that. No working out clearly.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
I mean, I can't do it any more than I do. So given that, and I had lowered my number to a degree, but then taking Stem Regen, what I brought up to you was, is that now three and a half, four months later, I have gotten my number from like the... just dead end red zone into a yellow zone being moderately high, which was an impossibility. I'm under 100 now from 330.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
That's not supposed to be possible by any metric whatsoever. The drugs aren't out yet for it to do that kind of decline. The drugs I'm on are only supposed to be able to go up to 25% decline, which is 94 from 330 is clearly more than 25% decline. I mean, that's over 50, right? So
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
I was wondering, and I don't know if you have data because that's kind of an intricate thing with the LP little a and everything. Is there any data or anything that would lead you to believe that that stem regen or stem cell, you know, enhancement or release would have anything to do with that, you know, and correlate with that score drop?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
Because that that is that is something scientifically not supposed to happen. That's a major, major thing if there is a correlation.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
Yeah, I mean, there's some stage three. Trust me, I follow every drug that's coming out that can treat this, and there's some that are at the final stages, but there's nothing, literally nothing. Right now, the only thing they have is called a lipoprotein apheresis, where they take out blood every week. It's like they won't do it to anybody. It's there, but nobody does it.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
Take out blood, get rid of it, and keep doing it every week. It's not... It's not a normal. Yes, it's a weekly thing. Yeah. So it's it's completely out there. And it's it's that's like a last ditch effort type of thing. But I'm getting a clearly test done in a few months, I think, in July or June when we move to to Phoenix. And I'm waiting that time.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
So that'll give me a better indication of the plaque growth. hopefully regression. So I'll have some data for you to see after, and that'll have had me on stem region a good amount of time too, to see if there was any effect there at all.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
But I, I have to think that there will be, I, when I was at, um, a for M me and my wife went to a booth and they hooked us up to this machine and it was testing and it was giving you the age of your heart based on several factors. So they did my test and, And the guy was looking like super, super perplexed.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
And he told me and my wife, he said, we're going to retest this because I've never seen a score like this. And he didn't really tell me why. And so we waited a few minutes, retested it. Same thing. And they took me to the guy that designed the whole thing. Basically, the readout said that my heart was like that of a 15 year old. So, I mean, I was beyond thrilled.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
And so that's more data that, you know, that and I'll have to look up the test and give it to you because I don't remember anything. Um, but yeah, that's what it said. So I was, I've got to think that since I've been taking stem regen, that that has some sort of impact on the overall cardiovascular health and the way that I feel right now. Um, What about the other products?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
So for instance, everybody listening, I take StemRegen consistently and I do the little bit of the advanced protocol. But right now what I do is take the release product that you were talking about and then I take a powder that's called Mobilize and then the Signal product. So I take all three.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
What are Mobilize and Signal and how does that all kind of correlate and why do we need to take all three of those?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
Beautiful. Well, I can I'm just going to give you a little bit of what I'm still experiencing and kind of how it's just my personal timeline. And I'm sure everybody's is going to be different. So I do kind of an advanced protocol where I'm doing the powder first thing in the morning and then I do. I'm doing twice a day dosing on the release.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
I know you could do three times, but I'm doing twice a day on that and then the signal in the morning. And so I didn't notice a ton the first maybe three weeks, not really much. Once I hit about that month mark, that's when I started where it kind of hit me. And mind you, I'm a faster responder to most everything that I take, like in general. So sometimes what I give people –

My results, I say, well, temper your expectations because I just respond quickly. But for instance, one of the things that I just and I hate saying this because I'm not old, but as I've gotten older, just bending down and I like to get on the floor and play with my cat and do things. I just don't even want to do it, man, because I don't even want to bend down and get up.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
Like I get to the point where even when I get out of bed, I'm just like dreading it because as soon as I take a step out and take a step out of bed, I'm just like, dude, I'm I, this just sucks so bad. Like I literally just don't even want to do it.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
And it's gotten to the point now where I'm, I don't want to say I'm popping up like when I was in my twenties, but like, I'll get on the ground and I'll jump right back up. I'm not scared to bend down, pick things up or do anything. And I don't have any, aside from being tired in the morning, I don't feel creaky or, you know, bad. I was having a little pain in my fingers, like out of nowhere.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
And granted I type all day, that's not there anymore. And what I was telling you before, like, With my elbow, that has been a bitch for so long. And it is just, I don't want to say it's non-existent because that wouldn't be being honest, but I don't feel it when I'm lifting anymore. No pain. It's very, very rare when I feel the pain.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
And then I would just say like my recovery after workouts, unless I take like a week off from when I'm traveling or I just go, I have those couple of days of a little bit of soreness, but my recovery is, man, it is insane. And then I think I've made some diet changes would have, which have helped my just energy and my cognition, I guess.

But I'm way more sharp and way more like less testy with things. You know, things aren't bothering me as much. I don't know if that plays any role or not, but I certainly notice it. So I want to point out all of these changes because it's not like I'm doing a bunch of other things or adding things.

Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
So you were really at the forefront then of people studying or learning about stem cells or pretty much, you know, one of the first people by what I'm gathering from what you're saying. Is that correct?

Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
I've made some diet changes, certain aspects of my life, but I can certainly relate all of this and my expectation to it. And I feel like, knock on wood, my injuries are like healing a lot faster than they were. The nagging stuff, I'm not seeing it as much at all anymore. So that's my experience. And I will tell you, I kind of ran this by you with my wife.

you know, she's kind of, she's had some irregularities, menstrual irregularities, kind of at that point where you're going through premenopause or perimenopause, you know, that type of thing. And it's been rough. Like there was a real disruption there. And as soon as she started taking it, everything's been regular ever since.

And right on the dot, like she, she just told me the other day, she can't believe how it's been because it stopped for just months. And I don't know how normal it is to get right back on track, but. And it's helped her with like, you know, any kind of emotional side effects, not that she was having them terrible, but it's really made a big impact.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
So those are just my experiences, me and her together, just so that, you know, and that people listening know, like it's, it's, I'm a firm believer all the way around.

Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
Yeah.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
Oh, yeah, definitely. Okay, so I have one more question for you that I think a lot of people would wonder, and I actually do wonder myself. So let's just look at it from two perspectives here. We've got the StemRegen product, which is releasing the stem cells. We've got exogenous injections.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
Now, I think we both know that the cost of these injections is completely... I mean, you've got to be loaded to get the... the injections. I have a good friend that goes to Mexico to get them. And I think he pays 50 or 60 grand per pop to go there to do it. So I don't even, I don't even know what it costs here. I'm going to defer to you on that. So this is a two part question.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
how I understand that getting an injection is always going to be probably more effective because it's going right in, but I'm, I'm looking at side effects.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
Are there any side effects on one side or the other that, and why would one aside from the obvious money look to take the stem regen as opposed to the injection side of things, just your insight on that and what the difference is and maybe even what is the cost?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
So I want to say something that I haven't told you before. And I want to make this very clear to the audience, just the kind of impact that you've had on me personally. So and I don't want to talk too long about me. One of the reasons, actually one of the main reasons that I transitioned into biohacking and even found any of this was because I met you.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
Right.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
Yeah. You're like band-aiding a wound with a quick injection and you're getting long-term results the other way. To me, it would be fairly obvious. I mean, granted, everybody's different. Are there side effects either way with injections or with stem regen? Any kind of side effects that anyone would need to be aware of at all to look for?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
Sure, sure. I would just be more inclined to think that it would always be safer to take the herbal side of things in 90 some 95 percent of the aspect. But I totally get what you're saying. And I appreciate like the the breakdown of it, because I'm sure that's that's always something people wonder is what are the side effects? So I want to point out and I'm not trying to.

Now, I was blessed enough to get this right around when I met you, and I took a lot of time to really enhance my mind, and I got a little, I like to try to process everything, but I started reading so much because I got kind of enthralled in it, but that book is amazing, so I want to point that out. Where can people find this book, and then when are you planning on releasing your new book?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
Okay, so just so I can kind of correlate this with, say, like one of my specialties is like hormone optimization. So if I have low testosterone and I go in for TRT, so I'm getting exogenous testosterone injected, that would be similar to going in and get exogenous injections of stem cells then.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
Aside from taking a testosterone booster, which could possibly release more testosterone or same thing like with a growth releasing hormone peptide where I'm releasing growth hormone, you're learning or learned, excuse me, how to release stem cells in that manner. You found the key, basically.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
That's yeah. I'm, I'm such a data guy. Like I can't, that is huge to be able to have that kind of data. So I can't wait for all. When do you expect that book to come out?

later cells uh you're talking about the heart well stem cells can become cardiomyocytes so it's like it's the it's the very basic level of maintaining your health as you age so these are basically in a nutshell in just simple terms like the healers of your body so to speak that's what stem cells primary function is is am i correct in saying that

And when I had the opportunity to sit and speak with you and meet you at the Mr. Olympia, I've just been a health and fitness guy for the last 15 years, like diet training, you know, all of that. You, not only did you open my mind up to like stem cells in general, which is something I had heard of, but not really.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
OK, so when somebody says, oh, I've noticed as I age, I'm having a heck of a lot more time recovering from injury or even workout recovery in general. That is a direct correlation then with chances are the lack of release of stem cells moving around within your body.

If I'm being honest, all I knew was that professional athletes had had the treatments done. I didn't know anything further. But because that I had the opportunity to sit and talk with you so long, learn from you, take that home with me, then look into you. You opened up a whole new reality of biohacking to me and.

Yeah. Oh yeah. I want to get into that, but I want to, I want to take this all the way back to like when we're born and then take it through like the evolution of life here so we can kind of see how this goes and works. And I understand it's probably different for each individual, but I'm sure there's a certain trajectory we can expect.

Like your testosterone levels are generally going to start declining when you're 30, HGH levels, you know, father time type of thing. So with testosterone, with stem cells. So like when we're born and we're like, you know, teenagers and everything, I'm assuming that's like when we're at our highest level of production and correct me if I'm wrong here and guide me along here.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #22 Featuring STEM CELL EXPERT Christian Drapeau! A CLINIC ON EVERYTHING STEM CELLS! The role of stem cells in repair, how they function, the relationship with inflammation, gut health, mitochondria, pain management, and more!!
When is there certain things that we do in life aside from taking like the products and everything that could possibly stimulate like early on, especially I understand when there's a decline, it's going to be difficult. But are there like foods? Are there mannerisms of living that can help to, you know, optimize our stem cell production? Or is that just it's just kind of is what it is.

You know what? You just said that. And when you said it, When I know that when I do that, oh, I don't know. It's a twofold answer and there's a reason behind it. One, you feel the pressure to have to answer that question immediately. And if it doesn't come right into your head, you then in turn have the fear of saying something that the person that's asking you is not going to be right.

So your quickest response or protective measure is, I don't know. And if you just sat and thought a minute and just relaxed, you probably would know. So that that resonated right when you said that. I was like, oh, my gosh, I do that. I'm sure a ton of people do it because I see it all the time. It's easy to say. How do you overcome that?

So here's something I'm wondering. When you have patients that come in and they kind of do that, for instance, that I don't know, or do you find that people that are maybe struggling more with their mental health or like borderline depressive or there's clearly a problem or more like impatience, for instance, if you start...

I'm sure in your profession, you've got to dig and you've got to ask a lot of questions to get to the core roots of a lot of problems. Maybe some are easier to ascertain than others, but I'm sure that you have to ask a significant amount of questions. Do you find people that are quick to be impatient or snappy with their answers or maybe suffering a little more or having more of an issue?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #14 Featuring Dr. Drew Ramsey M.D PART 1 ! THE MENTAL HEALTH EPISODE! The importance of mental fitness, the role of nutrition on mental health, stress vs. mental health, stigmas with mental health medications, his NEW BOOK release and more!
How does that correlate? Because I guess from what I observe with people, I see a lot of people that are so quick to just like get angry or upset if you ask a question. And then I have to ask myself, like, why? Because questions are good and we're trying to get to the core of the problem. So what does that mean to you?

Episode #14 Featuring Dr. Drew Ramsey M.D PART 1 ! THE MENTAL HEALTH EPISODE! The importance of mental fitness, the role of nutrition on mental health, stress vs. mental health, stigmas with mental health medications, his NEW BOOK release and more!

approached wanting to teach mental health and what drew you to that? All of us have some sort of backstory that led us into the direction we're going. So what exactly was yours?

Okay. I've got one more question for you, but then I attendance, but because you brought this up and because I see it and I know, so one of the things that I was trained on as I started, um, doing, um, influencing or videos or whatever you want to call it was to ignore all of the negative comments, you know, and just don't let it bother you. Don't let it bother you.

Now, thankfully I'm a little bit more thick skin. So a lot of it didn't bother me, but I'm human. And so some of it did bother me. And I guess where I'm going with this is when you brought up the term stoic, now I immediately, and it's people don't know what that means. It's just like, you're just not showing a lot of emotion. Things just kind of bounce off of you. You're just kind of

Episode #14 Featuring Dr. Drew Ramsey M.D PART 1 ! THE MENTAL HEALTH EPISODE! The importance of mental fitness, the role of nutrition on mental health, stress vs. mental health, stigmas with mental health medications, his NEW BOOK release and more!
kind of even keeled throughout the time. You're not really up or down too much or negative things or crazy things don't seem to bother you. Now, do you find... And I know this is a broad question too, but I guess I'm wondering, do you find that you uncover a lot of people that do come across? Because I feel like a lot of people put that up, that wall when they're trying to hide something.

Some people are just stoic. I get it. But I feel like a lot of people that I've encountered put this shield up or this wall up because they're kind of hiding something and keeping it back there or trying to not let certain aspects of their life out because they're trying... Part of my eating problem was I always tried to... Act like I was perfect with everybody. I didn't want to show weakness.

Episode #14 Featuring Dr. Drew Ramsey M.D PART 1 ! THE MENTAL HEALTH EPISODE! The importance of mental fitness, the role of nutrition on mental health, stress vs. mental health, stigmas with mental health medications, his NEW BOOK release and more!
I didn't want to show that I was, you know, bothered by this or eating this or that. And when inside it was killing me, but I put this wall up and I had this stone wall face. Do you find you see that a lot? Or is it just kind of, you know, hit and miss with people that have that kind of attitude or, you know, kind of way of life?

Episode #14 Featuring Dr. Drew Ramsey M.D PART 1 ! THE MENTAL HEALTH EPISODE! The importance of mental fitness, the role of nutrition on mental health, stress vs. mental health, stigmas with mental health medications, his NEW BOOK release and more!
No, and I think there's a good balance, I think, that everybody needs to have. Some people can go a little too far one way or another, and I've seen that, but I think it's important to convey that.

I've gotten a heck of a lot better at it the older I've gotten and the more comfortable, I guess, I've gotten realizing that things, you know, it's better to just get them out there, be honest with yourself and with others. And then that'll prevent hopefully not only will it prevent things from happening with you, but it'll help other people to prevent problems that could occur.

Episode #14 Featuring Dr. Drew Ramsey M.D PART 1 ! THE MENTAL HEALTH EPISODE! The importance of mental fitness, the role of nutrition on mental health, stress vs. mental health, stigmas with mental health medications, his NEW BOOK release and more!
And I think that a lot of us don't think about that. One of the things that I figured out was a lot of selfishness that I didn't. When you think of selfishness, sometimes you just think of, oh, I just want this for myself or that for myself. But you can be selfish by not doing things that could help others or, you know, encourage others, too.

Episode #14 Featuring Dr. Drew Ramsey M.D PART 1 ! THE MENTAL HEALTH EPISODE! The importance of mental fitness, the role of nutrition on mental health, stress vs. mental health, stigmas with mental health medications, his NEW BOOK release and more!
And I think sometimes when you hold back, it's kind of selfish because you could like somebody that has a voice like myself. If I hold back, I'm not really helping somebody. It could become a problem. So I'm trying to take note of that. And I think it's helpful. I know it's helped me when I realized, man, this feels good to get it off. And I think it might be helping other people.

And I try to, sometimes people in a position, not that I'm in any special position whatsoever, but I have a big audience and I will always wanted to, I was always trained to, if you make a mistake, go back and fix it or edit it out, do this, do that.

So I don't want to make people think that's a reality when it's not. you know, I want to be a pro at what I do, but at the same time, be honest and show people, Hey, you know, like we all wake up, you know, brush our teeth, drink water, eat food.

Perfect. Well, it makes sense. And that's why I always like to see what draws people towards what they're doing and kind of see what leads them in their path. So, you know, you have done so many different things, written so many different books and have your new book coming out. I don't want to jump too far ahead because I want to get into different aspects of mental health.

So this is all my wheelhouse. Like I just interviewed Dr. Gundry. We did a big focus on the microbiome. I do a ton of focus on understanding inflammation, the markers to look for, you know, I mean, those are key indicators for a lot of problems, especially, you know, cardiovascular health and many other factors.

one of the things that I'm learning right now, I'm in a cellular health class and I'm learning about, you know, cells, mitochondrial disease and functioning and how to treat that as well. But, you know, inflammation, like to your point, that can increase when you're stressed, mental health, depression, problems like that. I see a lot of people that have that correlate.

And I see a lot of symptoms, high cortisol, for example, mental health problems, stress, high cortisol levels, which can lead to other issues. So it all kind of goes hand in hand.

It's one of those things where it's like, we need people like you that dig to the root cause as opposed to somebody that just is like, treat, treat, treat. We're not looking for the problem. We're not trying to prevent it beforehand or dig to the core. We're just trying to give you a pill and say, here, this will fix it. And I just, I can't stand that.

And I think the more that I've learned and the more doctors I've worked with and the more experience I have, I've taken that holistic naturopathic approach, the approach of trying to dig, dig, dig, find, find, find, Um, so then I guess that would lead me into a discussion you and I had prior about the use of these drugs and how often they're prescribed and how it's the answer to everything.

Yeah, 100%. I mean, everything you said makes perfect sense. Part of the problem is, is there's a lot of... This really happened over COVID. I would always tell my wife, there's a lot of WebMD doctors out there now that just think they know everything by either reading something online or regurgitating something without actually knowing.

I'm going to relate this to myself for the audience. I have not discussed this in detail until just recently. I've been quite ashamed and embarrassed, but not anymore the older I've gotten.

Episode #14 Featuring Dr. Drew Ramsey M.D PART 1 ! THE MENTAL HEALTH EPISODE! The importance of mental fitness, the role of nutrition on mental health, stress vs. mental health, stigmas with mental health medications, his NEW BOOK release and more!
So I've battled an eating disorder most of my life starting at like 11 years old. And so... When you start talking about that, about the way that the nutrition affects the mental health side of things, I just want to attest to people and tell people the importance of talking about something that I wouldn't talk about for 20 and 30 years and wish that I could change time and do, but just to relate.

Episode #14 Featuring Dr. Drew Ramsey M.D PART 1 ! THE MENTAL HEALTH EPISODE! The importance of mental fitness, the role of nutrition on mental health, stress vs. mental health, stigmas with mental health medications, his NEW BOOK release and more!

Episode #14 Featuring Dr. Drew Ramsey M.D PART 1 ! THE MENTAL HEALTH EPISODE! The importance of mental fitness, the role of nutrition on mental health, stress vs. mental health, stigmas with mental health medications, his NEW BOOK release and more!
And the biggest contributor to what I would say led to my anxiety or my mental health, if I'm being honest with myself and with you right now sitting here, was not addressing that and talking about it and fixing it and thinking I could just either hide it or beat it on my own when I knew in my heart I couldn't. And so I see what you're saying in these problems. It's important to one,
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #14 Featuring Dr. Drew Ramsey M.D PART 1 ! THE MENTAL HEALTH EPISODE! The importance of mental fitness, the role of nutrition on mental health, stress vs. mental health, stigmas with mental health medications, his NEW BOOK release and more!
be honest about them with yourself and then with somebody else, but two, figure out how to address it and prevent it early instead of going 20 and 30 years like I did without any sort of anything. And so as soon as you brought that up, it just resonated with me immediately.

Episode #14 Featuring Dr. Drew Ramsey M.D PART 1 ! THE MENTAL HEALTH EPISODE! The importance of mental fitness, the role of nutrition on mental health, stress vs. mental health, stigmas with mental health medications, his NEW BOOK release and more!

It makes it a lot easier. Yeah. It's taken a long time to, I think, A, to just come to grips with it and to accept it. Because like you said, it's more of a female type of thing in terms of perception, not necessarily in action, but perception. What I found is that in it, you know, I've been in fitness and health. And so I understand the male problem with it because I've been surrounded by it.

Thank you. I have this and I have this argument with my mom often because she just doesn't want to do blood work and doesn't want to do this. But I feel this and I say, Mom, look. I could say, hey, you feel this. It could be 20 different things.

I could address it, but I could theoretically guess wrong because I'm doing a hypothetical analysis on what your problem is, but it could be different things. And what I could do is not only exacerbate the problem, but make it worse because I'm addressing the wrong thing. Now, I wonder how you feel about this. And I see this. This is one of the main reasons people come to me.

You go to the doctor, you get a physical and maybe as you get older, they'll do a blood panel. And it's very basic. It's your CBC and your CMP, which is fine. You need to know these things. And for anybody watching, that's your complete metabolic profile and complete blood counts. The problem with those is they only tell you a minimal amount. You're not getting comprehensive blood panels done.

So I don't know, like when I'm looking at cholesterol, like we were talking about, yeah, they'll test your LDL, your HDL, your triglycerides and your total cholesterol. But what's the important stuff? It's your ApoB, it's your LP little a, it's your particle sizes. And they're not testing for high sensitivity C-reactive protein.

100%. Here's a very easy, understandable example of this. It's like when we were kids and we bought a video game and we just didn't want to read the instruction manual. We just tried to figure it out. And we did. Once you get older and you start reading and learning, I'm like, oh, shit. I didn't know this, this, this, or this, or this. And I missed all of this. So in simple terms, it's...

You diet, for example. Well, this has been working, but I still I don't feel great here, here, here. Well, because you never looked into it. You never got down into the different aspects of it and figured out, well, shit. I'm missing this or this or this. And if I just changed a couple of small things, I think a lot of it is two things. It's a lack of knowledge and understanding.

And I think it's just, I hate to say this, but it's almost kind of just a little bit of lackadaisical attitude. It's just like, oh, well, this is the norm. This is what it is.

One of the things I wanted to ask you about that I have really troubled me, and I find this, that it's becoming demonized is, I feel like science and everything we've ever learned and everything was based upon asking questions, questioning everything, because that's how we learn in advance. And if you don't have the ability to ask and you're just told and you just do, then we can't learn.

When we started talking about it, it's so controversial. I've been eating oatmeal consistently probably 15 years daily. Now, I do agree about the glyphosate. Like I was telling you, it can be an issue. And obviously there's instant oatmeals that are filled with garbage and sugar and whatever.

When you could literally just buy non-GMO, non-glyphosate, clean oats, and you could like, I used to put protein powder in mine. Now I'm just putting a little bit of grass-fed butter and a little like half serving of organic maple syrup or honey in there, which I'm finding is just burning belly fat. It's amazing. You can't overdo it.

You know, I'm talking like a quarter serving of a grass fed butter, maybe half. I weigh it. So I know it's seven ounces for half. Right. But and then a little teaspoon of maple syrup in there. You can make your oatmeal delicious without buying all that crap. I guess my question is, in your opinion, since there's so many opinions on this. Is oatmeal really so bad?

Some of the gummies that you take and some of the just the everyday pills that you take, if you read the case and then some people will go in and they'll go, well, I can buy magnesium at the grocery store and if it's five bucks, why is this one 20? Well, go take a look at what it says on the back.

Episode #3 Featuring Mona Sharma! Conventional vs. Holistic Medicine, Navigating food choices in our processed world, the great oatmeal debate, the role of spirituality in healing , and so much more!
Yeah, exactly. And magnesium, for example, there's, well, there's several different kinds, you know, magnesium that you could take and people just, it, it goes back again to education and maybe lack learning that I think is important that people need to take into consideration.

But like you were saying, learning food labels and seeing when you see a food label, I don't think some people understand it's the order of that they're listed, you know, and how much is in whatever category.

I get a lot of pushback that I see on not just really to me, but I see to other like people that are doing information podcast videos as well. Oh, that's too much. Oh, I don't know. I don't understand. And people just give up. And it's like, look, when we do something like this, we're not telling everybody. That's like trying to tell an alcoholic, just stop drinking.

Episode #3 Featuring Mona Sharma! Conventional vs. Holistic Medicine, Navigating food choices in our processed world, the great oatmeal debate, the role of spirituality in healing , and so much more!
Yeah, that's not how it works. What we're saying is here's all of the information. Start with a little bit and just work your way. I understand not everybody can afford this. Not everybody can do this. Not everybody can do that. But you certainly can do some of these things.

Episode #3 Featuring Mona Sharma! Conventional vs. Holistic Medicine, Navigating food choices in our processed world, the great oatmeal debate, the role of spirituality in healing , and so much more!
You just have to want to do it. You have to take the time to learn. And I think that starts with caring, you know. And it pains me when people just give up or don't care. You know, I understand circumstances, situations. I have been this high and I have been this low. So I know, you know, but I've always tried to figure – you just – I've always said this, you just figure shit out. You just do.

If you tell me that you're too busy to work out, get your ass up a little bit earlier in the morning, go to bed earlier. You can do it. You can always manage. And I get these people that tell me, I'm just so busy, I can't talk or I can't do this. And it's like, well... You had an hour here that you were looking on your phone. You can if you want to.

It's called prioritizing. And so I guess I don't want people to feel overwhelmed or just do this. They throw their hands up in the air when we do a thing like this. We're just covering all the bases.

Episode #3 Featuring Mona Sharma! Conventional vs. Holistic Medicine, Navigating food choices in our processed world, the great oatmeal debate, the role of spirituality in healing , and so much more!
Yes.

Episode #3 Featuring Mona Sharma! Conventional vs. Holistic Medicine, Navigating food choices in our processed world, the great oatmeal debate, the role of spirituality in healing , and so much more!
And that's really what I was saying earlier is about just being accountable, thinking about others. How are your decisions affecting those around you that you love too? You know, sometimes we don't think about that. So if you have kids setting a good example, think about your health for your spouse or somebody in your life, you know, and we don't do that.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #3 Featuring Mona Sharma! Conventional vs. Holistic Medicine, Navigating food choices in our processed world, the great oatmeal debate, the role of spirituality in healing , and so much more!
Yes. To become independent on doctors and medications and being told what to do is not a good thing. Be dependent on yourself, the decisions that you make. Some things will get out of control.

You can't control, like you can't control the spread of COVID, but you can certainly build your immune system up and do what you can to protect yourself from airborne diseases or whatever, you know, and taking care of yourself. It starts there. So, I know you've been very generous with your time and I know I've gone on and on with you and I could keep going.

I glanced down and I was like...

Episode #3 Featuring Mona Sharma! Conventional vs. Holistic Medicine, Navigating food choices in our processed world, the great oatmeal debate, the role of spirituality in healing , and so much more!
Yes, I couldn't agree more. Well, first, I appreciate the story because sometimes it's hard for people to share those because they kind of have like a PTSD with it and other people thrive on it and they are able to use that as kind of fuel for this is how I improved. You know, I've made a million mistakes and I look back on them and I don't dwell on them. I say, wow, this has helped shape me.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #3 Featuring Mona Sharma! Conventional vs. Holistic Medicine, Navigating food choices in our processed world, the great oatmeal debate, the role of spirituality in healing , and so much more!
So thank you for doing that because it's not easy for a lot of people. I think once you do it though, it does become more ease and more helpful. Um, so I want to touch on a couple of things. So with the palpitations, now there's several things that can induce that. Like we were talking about anxiety can certainly induce that. Um, I feel like with you, it was more kind of diet and health related.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #3 Featuring Mona Sharma! Conventional vs. Holistic Medicine, Navigating food choices in our processed world, the great oatmeal debate, the role of spirituality in healing , and so much more!
Probably one of the things that I found, like I had it way too much magnesium. I didn't realize I was taking in a lack of electrolytes can do that potassium magnesium. There's just so many different things. There's too many supplements you could take. What do you feel was the actual root of all of that? Just lifestyle or what do you feel that it was?

Episode #3 Featuring Mona Sharma! Conventional vs. Holistic Medicine, Navigating food choices in our processed world, the great oatmeal debate, the role of spirituality in healing , and so much more!
Thank you. I, I, like I said, this is exciting for me because I have never done this live. I, well, I take that back, I guess at the Mr. Olympia, but that wasn't my podcast. So I've really never done my own one-on-one live like this. It's always virtual.

Episode #3 Featuring Mona Sharma! Conventional vs. Holistic Medicine, Navigating food choices in our processed world, the great oatmeal debate, the role of spirituality in healing , and so much more!
It makes, you can tell within five seconds. Okay, so I want to start with your backstory, and we got to talking about it earlier, and I find it – not just intriguing, but it's going to be so helpful to so many people. It's going to inspire people.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #3 Featuring Mona Sharma! Conventional vs. Holistic Medicine, Navigating food choices in our processed world, the great oatmeal debate, the role of spirituality in healing , and so much more!
So, and I had a method for going into this. My point was, and I'm glad you shared this, is...
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #3 Featuring Mona Sharma! Conventional vs. Holistic Medicine, Navigating food choices in our processed world, the great oatmeal debate, the role of spirituality in healing , and so much more!
doctors will try to diagnose a problem that may not exist to put you on medications and they're trying to treat instead of prevent or fix right so that was what i wanted to stress is because i also was telling you before like i had the heart palpitation issues and i found that it was too much magnesium i was hooked up to whole team monitor i did the ekg echocardiogram normal normal normal normal

But then, you know, they may have done a surgery on you that you didn't need, put you on beta blockers you didn't need. And I'm not trying to demonize doctors because there are some very good ones out there, but more often than not, they're, They're trained to have a one-track mind. And it's put you on this, and I can get into the way the insurance works. We can see that. I've done that enough.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #3 Featuring Mona Sharma! Conventional vs. Holistic Medicine, Navigating food choices in our processed world, the great oatmeal debate, the role of spirituality in healing , and so much more!
But these are just simple facts. And that's why when you brought up, we'll just call it alternative medicine options. I think that it's important, one, do your own research. Two, maybe go get a second and third opinion. It's fine for an athlete when they get injured to go get three and four opinions on a surgery.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #3 Featuring Mona Sharma! Conventional vs. Holistic Medicine, Navigating food choices in our processed world, the great oatmeal debate, the role of spirituality in healing , and so much more!
right so why isn't it fine for a person to do their own research and go you know what okay thank you for your opinion let's go look at some maybe alternative options and and see what else is out there and maybe just kind of you know and that's like when i come from the world of peptides you come from some alternative medicine do you find that how do i say this kindly do you find it to be better suited for people to go seek alternative therapies often

so admittedly when i was studying everything about you and when we talked and everything i talked to you about before i didn't really get into the science magazine part of it or this aspect and i'm smiling so big because the things you're saying are like step by step in line with how i function belief and and how i kind of conduct my life where everything is a question and trying to find a deeper root and meaning and taking what i have and then looking deeper into it and figuring out

Is there a better way? Is there something I'm missing? Is there because I do a lot of like hormones and optimizations and things with the body and and cellular health is why I brought that up just because it came off the top of my head. But what you're talking about is so intriguing and so great to hear.

Episode #24 with Investigative Journalist Charles Piller! Uncovering FRAUD in Alzheimers research, Intimate details of the scheme, the impact of doctored research, amyloid protein, investigative journalism, freedom of speech, censorship and more!
So this publication is more speaking out and it's kind of more freedom talking and the things that we need to evolve as people and to grow instead of being forced on a one track mind or told that this is it. And don't question the science type of deal basically then is what you're saying.

Let me ask you this. How often can we read your, like, do you write monthly? Is it a monthly publication? Weekly? How often is this? Because I'm intrigued now. I want to start reading it every, however often it comes out. And I'm sure a lot of people that are listening are going to want to take advantage of that.

So let me ask you this. You've written four books, correct? Three. Total? Three. Okay. So you've written three books. Which one did you find to be the most difficult for you in terms of gathering the information, time consuming? What had the most for you to overcome?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast

Episode #24 with Investigative Journalist Charles Piller! Uncovering FRAUD in Alzheimers research, Intimate details of the scheme, the impact of doctored research, amyloid protein, investigative journalism, freedom of speech, censorship and more!
So as time has evolved and things have changed in our society and governments changed, leaders have changed, all of these things have changed. You can have your opinion one way or another out there. Do you feel like it's become more difficult now? over time or before to speak your mind, to not be censored, to not be viewed upon, vilified? Do you think it's changed any differently over time?

Absolutely. So do you find that this type of work, you get a lot of pushback or a lot of people trying to, I don't know, sabotage your work, not lead you in the wrong directions? I mean, how difficult it is to really get into this and do it properly?

Episode #24 with Investigative Journalist Charles Piller! Uncovering FRAUD in Alzheimers research, Intimate details of the scheme, the impact of doctored research, amyloid protein, investigative journalism, freedom of speech, censorship and more!

The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #24 with Investigative Journalist Charles Piller! Uncovering FRAUD in Alzheimers research, Intimate details of the scheme, the impact of doctored research, amyloid protein, investigative journalism, freedom of speech, censorship and more!
No, I thoroughly agree with you. I mean, some things I would say maybe aren't as fixable as others. But yes, I mean, let's go in and find all of the problems, figure out what we got to do to make it right and fix it. I get that. And I like that. I think that's important. You know, it's hard for us.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #24 with Investigative Journalist Charles Piller! Uncovering FRAUD in Alzheimers research, Intimate details of the scheme, the impact of doctored research, amyloid protein, investigative journalism, freedom of speech, censorship and more!
It's really hard for anybody to say because we're not in there and we don't see all the details and we don't know what's being hidden from us and what's not and what's factual and what's not. And everybody calls everybody a liar and throws stuff. So it's very difficult to ascertain what is what. But I'm with you and hopefully.

Episode #24 with Investigative Journalist Charles Piller! Uncovering FRAUD in Alzheimers research, Intimate details of the scheme, the impact of doctored research, amyloid protein, investigative journalism, freedom of speech, censorship and more!
You get some honesty in there and that type of thing can be done and we can only pray for that. And I'm with you 100% and thoroughly agree. Let's switch course now and let's just get into the Alzheimer's book because I know that this is a deeper dive and we got a lot of stuff to talk about in here.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #24 with Investigative Journalist Charles Piller! Uncovering FRAUD in Alzheimers research, Intimate details of the scheme, the impact of doctored research, amyloid protein, investigative journalism, freedom of speech, censorship and more!
So first and foremost, just talk to me about the basis of this book and then we'll kind of get into the meats and bones of it and everything to do with it. But doctored fraud, arrogance, and tragedy. That's a pretty heavy title and with good reason. What's the reasoning for the title and the whole basis behind the book?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #24 with Investigative Journalist Charles Piller! Uncovering FRAUD in Alzheimers research, Intimate details of the scheme, the impact of doctored research, amyloid protein, investigative journalism, freedom of speech, censorship and more!
So what keeps you going? Like, what is it that keeps you going doing this? Cause I mean, you're talking about getting threats. You're talking about people that are, you know, swaying you off course that are coming at you from all different angles. And I know that that can be extremely difficult. And a lot of people would just say, this is not worth it. This is not worth it at all.

No, granted, I don't see every little thing, but you would think that something like this would be far more discussed or mainstream. And I don't find personally that it is correct me if I'm missing something, do you feel like it's not getting the attention it deserves and what have you kind of

had thrown your way after this came out and the book released and you've done interviews now and been on major podcasts, because I'm sure some of the podcasts you've been on, people are hearing this and I'm going to make sure like with mine, everybody hears it too. I mean, we're going to blast this out. So what are you running into and why is this not being talked about more?

I'm going to offer you a little something here to try to contribute to your work. So I do, I've been studying peptides since before most people ever even knew they existed because I'm from the bodybuilding space and they were sold as research chemicals for research purposes.

So I'm just going to touch on a few findings that I have for you that are at least in development or being studied and just kind of provide that to you really, really quickly so that, you know, just for general purposes. And I'm not saying these work or anything. This is just some basic facts that I have.

You brought up the GLP-1s, which are a deep study of mine, as you can imagine, given the popularity and the amount of people wanting to use them. But in terms of Alzheimer's, there is definite study and hope in terms of that benefit there. And it's just kind of been shown to protect brain cells from damage and improve cognitive function there.

in Alzheimer's patients right now, still early on stages, but just a few quick tidbits, like, so just some ways that, that they may function various mechanisms of function for helping Alzheimer's patients. There's an inhibition, of AB aggregation and that blocks formation of amyloid plaques like we've been discussing and they prevent accumulation of toxic proteins in the brain.

Episode #24 with Investigative Journalist Charles Piller! Uncovering FRAUD in Alzheimers research, Intimate details of the scheme, the impact of doctored research, amyloid protein, investigative journalism, freedom of speech, censorship and more!
There's a reduction in neuroinflammation that goes on. And they can modulate immune response and reduce inflammation in the brain of Alzheimer's patients. And then there's an improvement in cognitive functions as well.

Now, I'm not sure if you've looked at any of these studies right now, but there's some MIT neuroscientists that kind of found a way to reverse neurodegeneration and other symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. Excuse me. by interfering with an enzyme that's typically overactive in the brains of Alzheimer's patients.

And so they did this treatment on mice with a peptide, and it blocks the hyperactive version of an enzyme called CDK5. And they found dramatic reductions in neurodegeneration and DNA damage in the brain. So these are just some things that I have on my end that I could...

hopefully contribute to people listening or throw in for you i don't know a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of what you know but i do know you know other aspects of like peptide study and things of that nature that i thought might be of interest to kind of share so yeah i really appreciate you mentioning that dylan uh you know one of the things that i've learned in looking first of all i'm not an expert in every aspect of alzheimer's disease it's a vast field

Episode #24 with Investigative Journalist Charles Piller! Uncovering FRAUD in Alzheimers research, Intimate details of the scheme, the impact of doctored research, amyloid protein, investigative journalism, freedom of speech, censorship and more!
I agree. And I mean, I, I'm a cellular health coach and things like that. And one thing that we learn in there is that all diseases start in the cells somehow, some ways damaged cells and inflammation. These things are like the causes of basically everything that goes wrong and or gut health, but that, you know, that's neither here nor there.

Episode #24 with Investigative Journalist Charles Piller! Uncovering FRAUD in Alzheimers research, Intimate details of the scheme, the impact of doctored research, amyloid protein, investigative journalism, freedom of speech, censorship and more!
The point is, is things like inflammation, things like this, the preventative things that you talked about, there's multi
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #24 with Investigative Journalist Charles Piller! Uncovering FRAUD in Alzheimers research, Intimate details of the scheme, the impact of doctored research, amyloid protein, investigative journalism, freedom of speech, censorship and more!
methodologies to go about things to prevent things to be preventative early on as opposed to just kind of you know I struggle this with a lot of my clients and people that I train it's kind of just this carefree attitude and when you do that you don't take the proper precautions and steps to take care of yourself prior and kind of educate yourself and know you're setting yourself up for failure
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #24 with Investigative Journalist Charles Piller! Uncovering FRAUD in Alzheimers research, Intimate details of the scheme, the impact of doctored research, amyloid protein, investigative journalism, freedom of speech, censorship and more!
assuredly far earlier than you should. And so the hope is, is that with the education and the good explanation of everything that we can spread that word and help people to take better care of themselves early on to be preventative and then do their due diligence in terms of their research and their understandings.

Well, let me just say, I encourage people to obviously check out this book, his, his newest book, Charles's newest book, but check out his older publications. There's great content. I'm going to look into the science magazine when we get off of here and check that out because I'm super intrigued by that. And you know, what's crazy, Charles, when I was in school, I despise science.

Episode #24 with Investigative Journalist Charles Piller! Uncovering FRAUD in Alzheimers research, Intimate details of the scheme, the impact of doctored research, amyloid protein, investigative journalism, freedom of speech, censorship and more!
So let me ask you this, and I think I know the answer, but I just want to hear what you have to say about it. During all of these investigations that you do and the digging and the learning, have you ever had anything or do you ever get to the point where it's like, holy shit, like what just happened here?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #24 with Investigative Journalist Charles Piller! Uncovering FRAUD in Alzheimers research, Intimate details of the scheme, the impact of doctored research, amyloid protein, investigative journalism, freedom of speech, censorship and more!
It was my least favorite subject. It was the one thing that I hated. And now my whole life revolves around it. So it's funny how things change when we grow. But it's I'm really thankful that you brought that up because I'm going to check that out and start reading into that. And I look forward to reading more of your work and hopefully conversing more with you in the future on some things, too.

Are you kind of at the point where you're kind of like jaded now where it's like, ah, it's just something else. I just kind of expected this to happen. And you don't have to get into what it is if you don't want to share. But have you ever had those moments where you're like, oh, my gosh, like, really? Yeah. Did this really happen or did I just uncover this?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #24 with Investigative Journalist Charles Piller! Uncovering FRAUD in Alzheimers research, Intimate details of the scheme, the impact of doctored research, amyloid protein, investigative journalism, freedom of speech, censorship and more!
I know you have to be careful when you take each particular subject or area that you're going. Does anything ever seem to hit you a little bit more personal? Or as any of the things that you've looked into, like we'll just use the Alzheimer's, for example, like Is there something that you've had in your family or something that a loved one had that you really wanted to get to the bottom to?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #24 with Investigative Journalist Charles Piller! Uncovering FRAUD in Alzheimers research, Intimate details of the scheme, the impact of doctored research, amyloid protein, investigative journalism, freedom of speech, censorship and more!
And his most recent book, Doctored, Fraud, Arrogance, and Tragedy in the Quest to Cure Alzheimer's, is going to be a topic we really get into today. So I could go on and on, but we got to get into the conversation because time is limited. So everybody, welcome Charles Piller.

Episode #24 with Investigative Journalist Charles Piller! Uncovering FRAUD in Alzheimers research, Intimate details of the scheme, the impact of doctored research, amyloid protein, investigative journalism, freedom of speech, censorship and more!
Are these just things that you just say, you know what? I see this. I see there's corruption here. I want to get behind it and expose it. Is it kind of always like that to you? I'm just curious as to how you pick the areas that you're going to go and kind of dig into.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #24 with Investigative Journalist Charles Piller! Uncovering FRAUD in Alzheimers research, Intimate details of the scheme, the impact of doctored research, amyloid protein, investigative journalism, freedom of speech, censorship and more!
Okay. Okay. Excellent. I kind of had a feeling that it was more the latter, but you know, with stuff like this, a lot of times people get into that because it's something personal and then it leads into something else. So that's why I was curious on that. Let's before I, cause I have questions about your books and other books before we get to the big dog that you just released.

Yes. Absolutely. I appreciate you taking the time. I know you're busy, especially with the new book. And there's a lot of people wanting to interview you and get into the things that you have talked about. And I'm really excited to learn about what you've done here. So let's start with this. Um, what drove you to get into the topic of work that you do?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #24 with Investigative Journalist Charles Piller! Uncovering FRAUD in Alzheimers research, Intimate details of the scheme, the impact of doctored research, amyloid protein, investigative journalism, freedom of speech, censorship and more!
That's awesome. Well, you've had quite the road then in the journey, sounds like. So that's great. And quite the background. What is, right now you write for Science Magazine. Can you kind of get into what that magazine discusses and what you kind of contribute to?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #24 with Investigative Journalist Charles Piller! Uncovering FRAUD in Alzheimers research, Intimate details of the scheme, the impact of doctored research, amyloid protein, investigative journalism, freedom of speech, censorship and more!
That's great. That's great. And that's what science is, is learning it and questioning it and figuring out new methods and methodologies. And I love that you're on that side of it. And that's a great opportunity for you, especially to continue to learn as you write too. So, and it helps us all benefit from learning from what you've learned. So in that magazine,

Episode #24 with Investigative Journalist Charles Piller! Uncovering FRAUD in Alzheimers research, Intimate details of the scheme, the impact of doctored research, amyloid protein, investigative journalism, freedom of speech, censorship and more!
I, you know, being investigative and looking for the things that, that you're digging into, what is there something in your life that triggered you to want to do that? And can you kind of get into that background?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #24 with Investigative Journalist Charles Piller! Uncovering FRAUD in Alzheimers research, Intimate details of the scheme, the impact of doctored research, amyloid protein, investigative journalism, freedom of speech, censorship and more!
When you said there's a science side and a journalism side, is it covering like basic science topics? Like, are we getting into different aspects of science? Like, let's just say cellular health or biology. Is that kind of what it does? And then there's a journalism side where you're writing your kind of articles about different topics and questions.

See, and that's what I love about People like you that are harder to come by because there's a real passion behind what you're doing and you can sense it. There's no hesitation with what you say. There's no fumbling around your words. There's no like mixing things around. It's like straightforward. You can hear it in your voice.

And I can tell and I love that because I can read people so quick from sales so long. So I know immediately. And that was another one of the reasons why I really wanted to talk to you. I have another question about the growth process, because you were talking about growing it hydroponically and then kind of the climate that it needed to be in.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #2 with Catharine Arnston! Why we all need algae, Spirulina and Chlorella Benefits, Mitochondrial Health Explained, How algae extends our lifespan, ENERGYbits and MORE!
I'm assuming, but I just want to know, is this something that could be done with artificial light or does it have to be sunlight?

The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #2 with Catharine Arnston! Why we all need algae, Spirulina and Chlorella Benefits, Mitochondrial Health Explained, How algae extends our lifespan, ENERGYbits and MORE!
spirulina up to me when I first met her in about it was like 2012 when she first kind of started talking to me about it but I don't I haven't known enough about it because I've been more in like the supplement world and while I do you know natural things this is something that especially recently since I've been watching you that I've learned so much about and I want your knowledge base to
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #2 with Catharine Arnston! Why we all need algae, Spirulina and Chlorella Benefits, Mitochondrial Health Explained, How algae extends our lifespan, ENERGYbits and MORE!
Right, 100%. Okay, so this is more related because I have such a high fitness audience, and so this question is kind of more geared towards the bodybuilders and the fitness people that could potentially be looking at this because of the protein that we're talking about. So it's a two-part question. Does spirulina and chlorella and all algaes have the protein in it, or is it just spirulina?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #2 with Catharine Arnston! Why we all need algae, Spirulina and Chlorella Benefits, Mitochondrial Health Explained, How algae extends our lifespan, ENERGYbits and MORE!
And then let's just say... We're talking like a serving of spirulina to 10 tablets. How much protein are we looking at there and would that be good for muscle recovery and muscle building? And are we talking protein like grams of protein in meat or how are we supposed to understand and comprehend since you're saying it's real food and everything?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #2 with Catharine Arnston! Why we all need algae, Spirulina and Chlorella Benefits, Mitochondrial Health Explained, How algae extends our lifespan, ENERGYbits and MORE!
Welcome back to the Dylan Gemelli podcast, everyone. I have an extremely special guest for you today that I am so excited to have here. I've been watching her for several months, but I had the pleasure of meeting her at the A4M recently. And she is an amazing woman. And we have a lot to discuss and talk to you about today.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #2 with Catharine Arnston! Why we all need algae, Spirulina and Chlorella Benefits, Mitochondrial Health Explained, How algae extends our lifespan, ENERGYbits and MORE!
Is it similar to that or is it different, the type of protein? Yeah.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #2 with Catharine Arnston! Why we all need algae, Spirulina and Chlorella Benefits, Mitochondrial Health Explained, How algae extends our lifespan, ENERGYbits and MORE!
To spread this wealth of information to others, because when we have things like this, they can do so much that people really don't know enough about because it's not mainstream enough. You and I both know that I want to help make it mainstream and there's nobody better that I could pick out to help me do that than you.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #2 with Catharine Arnston! Why we all need algae, Spirulina and Chlorella Benefits, Mitochondrial Health Explained, How algae extends our lifespan, ENERGYbits and MORE!
So I just first of all, thank you for for putting so much time and energy into actually helping people. And bringing this to light. So I want to let everybody hear your story first, because, you know, it's why spirulina, why chlorella, why algae? Yeah, right. Tell us your story.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #2 with Catharine Arnston! Why we all need algae, Spirulina and Chlorella Benefits, Mitochondrial Health Explained, How algae extends our lifespan, ENERGYbits and MORE!
I'm going to have, I'm an, I literally am a 90 to a hundred minute a day cardio person. So I'm going to I'm going to start testing that out myself because I have never really used any sort of quality spirulina, I'm sure, that I've used in the past. Why is it that a lot of the ones that you buy have to be refrigerated and do yours have to be refrigerated?

Episode #2 with Catharine Arnston! Why we all need algae, Spirulina and Chlorella Benefits, Mitochondrial Health Explained, How algae extends our lifespan, ENERGYbits and MORE!
Amazing. Sweet. So you mentioned the essential amino acids. Now, because there's so many EAA powders that have so many negative things in them, whether it's the blue-red coloring or the sucralose or things like that, is this potentially, can you just replace that then with something like this? Totally.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #2 with Catharine Arnston! Why we all need algae, Spirulina and Chlorella Benefits, Mitochondrial Health Explained, How algae extends our lifespan, ENERGYbits and MORE!
So what is the actual, because you always see two algaes in every little green section there is, it's spirulina chlorella, which is exactly what you have. What's the difference between the two? Why do you need them both? And is one more important than the other?

I do have, because I have put such a great deal and amount of time into cardiology and heart health and different aspects of cholesterol. My focus is kind of on ApoB and LpA and being preventative as possible and knowing these markers. Would you find or have you found through study or implementation any sort of benefit in that regard?

I like you. When you start getting into things, there's a reason. And thankfully, I am the way that I am with my testing. And I had a calcium score done. I mean, and I eat perfectly the way I train and everything and found that I had a high number of calcium. So I went and got CT angio and had a 30% blockage, thankfully, that I caught early because I would have never known.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #2 with Catharine Arnston! Why we all need algae, Spirulina and Chlorella Benefits, Mitochondrial Health Explained, How algae extends our lifespan, ENERGYbits and MORE!
I mean, the way that I train and, well, I have an LP little a of 330, which is genetic. So there's, you know, and I found that out through my own work. And so I have taken the liberty of putting so much effort now into educating people on this. So I have taken dives into K2. So I'm so thankful that you covered that because you just taught me things I wasn't aware of.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #2 with Catharine Arnston! Why we all need algae, Spirulina and Chlorella Benefits, Mitochondrial Health Explained, How algae extends our lifespan, ENERGYbits and MORE!
Now, my question to you is, because there's a lot of people that say you can't reverse calcification or take calcification out of your heart, which I think is nonsense. And I have so many great minds that have told me otherwise.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #2 with Catharine Arnston! Why we all need algae, Spirulina and Chlorella Benefits, Mitochondrial Health Explained, How algae extends our lifespan, ENERGYbits and MORE!
Would you, and I know you can't maybe say this with certainty, but would you believe or think theoretically that that's possible to get some of that calcification reversed by using spirulina and chlorella?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #2 with Catharine Arnston! Why we all need algae, Spirulina and Chlorella Benefits, Mitochondrial Health Explained, How algae extends our lifespan, ENERGYbits and MORE!
It heals.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #2 with Catharine Arnston! Why we all need algae, Spirulina and Chlorella Benefits, Mitochondrial Health Explained, How algae extends our lifespan, ENERGYbits and MORE!
Excellent. Well, I do want to get into the mitochondrial aspect of things. That's something I've been trying to study a lot more and, you know, discuss. So I'm wondering if you could kind of get into detail on that and, you know, be scientific with it. I want the greater understanding for everybody to really grasp all of this and for myself too, selfishly.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #2 with Catharine Arnston! Why we all need algae, Spirulina and Chlorella Benefits, Mitochondrial Health Explained, How algae extends our lifespan, ENERGYbits and MORE!

Episode #2 with Catharine Arnston! Why we all need algae, Spirulina and Chlorella Benefits, Mitochondrial Health Explained, How algae extends our lifespan, ENERGYbits and MORE!
I love it. I'm so thankful that you have everything documented on paper. You can easily see the studies you put into it, but having it documented goes the extra mile for people so that they understand and see that it's there. I have one more question for you, if you don't mind. I know we've gone a long time, but I want to ask this real quick of you. I took a ton of notes, by the way.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #2 with Catharine Arnston! Why we all need algae, Spirulina and Chlorella Benefits, Mitochondrial Health Explained, How algae extends our lifespan, ENERGYbits and MORE!
We talked about the decline in your mitochondrial health and then the accumulation of the free radicals. Is there a test or a blood marker that people can do to see if that's occurring and see to the extent that it's occurring?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #2 with Catharine Arnston! Why we all need algae, Spirulina and Chlorella Benefits, Mitochondrial Health Explained, How algae extends our lifespan, ENERGYbits and MORE!
you know, I already know that people don't have any idea really just about it in general, but let's get into the real details here about the differences so we can understand what those are and kind of what separates them into two categories.

Episode #2 with Catharine Arnston! Why we all need algae, Spirulina and Chlorella Benefits, Mitochondrial Health Explained, How algae extends our lifespan, ENERGYbits and MORE!
But I love the way that you break it down and you make it very simple to understand, but yet still convey information. The information that we need and it's it's really helpful and you really mastered that quality and it's appreciated because a lot of people don't do that very well.

I totally get it. When I started everything I was doing, I was like way ahead of the game on peptides and SARMs. And that's what I was known for. And that's why you're known for being like the spirulina chlorella and it will catch on and then everybody will try to do it, but nobody will be able to replicate, you know, the way that you're doing it. Because you take so much care.

Now, I have several questions, but my first one is when you were talking about the high heat and the drying of things. Now, are they doing that to speed up the process to get it produced? Is that why they're doing that? Yes.

We didn't get into what's the difference and why. So first question, if you're taking a spore probiotic, do you need to take a regular probiotic with that or are you getting what you need from that?

Got it. Okay, cool. All right. So here's another question. This was actually sent in by my wife via text message while I'm talking to you. She's in the other room listening and she has a question. I think it's a good question.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #30 Featuring Dr. Robin Rose! The Gut Microbiome and Covid Expert!! Insight on how the covid virus works, the dangers of spike proteins, long covid concerns, a FULL breakdown of leaky gut, how to treat it, SPORE probiotics and MORE!!
She said to ask you if we still need probiotics if we're eating fermented foods on a daily basis like kimchi or sauerkraut or things like that.

Episode #30 Featuring Dr. Robin Rose! The Gut Microbiome and Covid Expert!! Insight on how the covid virus works, the dangers of spike proteins, long covid concerns, a FULL breakdown of leaky gut, how to treat it, SPORE probiotics and MORE!!
Well, and also people like, for instance, Queenie told my mom to go shop for for kimchi and, you know, sauerkraut. And my mom wasn't buying the right one. And we had to fix that. A lot of people don't know, too. It needs to be like refrigerated ones. And, you know, like the ones off the shelf are not the ones to buy.

And consuming those things. Okay, cool. So we've got that kind of down now and that discussed. So I think that's a big one that a lot of people have confusion on. I know it's tricky and there's so many things marketed and different brands and different BS. So that was a good cover now.

Well, here, I was looking and I'm curious here. So on that microbiome lab site, there's products and I want to ask about things like addressing gut flora, for example, like is one of the things on here that I see. And so talk about that first and then the mucosal support, things like that. Are those necessary or what?

Episode #30 Featuring Dr. Robin Rose! The Gut Microbiome and Covid Expert!! Insight on how the covid virus works, the dangers of spike proteins, long covid concerns, a FULL breakdown of leaky gut, how to treat it, SPORE probiotics and MORE!!

Episode #30 Featuring Dr. Robin Rose! The Gut Microbiome and Covid Expert!! Insight on how the covid virus works, the dangers of spike proteins, long covid concerns, a FULL breakdown of leaky gut, how to treat it, SPORE probiotics and MORE!!
It's important to learn, you know, about all of these and to just be honest about what works and what doesn't. Not just because you sell it.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #30 Featuring Dr. Robin Rose! The Gut Microbiome and Covid Expert!! Insight on how the covid virus works, the dangers of spike proteins, long covid concerns, a FULL breakdown of leaky gut, how to treat it, SPORE probiotics and MORE!!
Definitely. Okay. Well, let's switch gears here. Obviously, you know this. I just, well, and to be honest with you, I didn't even tell you this. So I told you I tested positive for COVID, but then I took another test that said I was negative. And then I took another one. I had a two piece test from CVS, both said positive. And then I bought three other different tests that all said negative.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #30 Featuring Dr. Robin Rose! The Gut Microbiome and Covid Expert!! Insight on how the covid virus works, the dangers of spike proteins, long covid concerns, a FULL breakdown of leaky gut, how to treat it, SPORE probiotics and MORE!!
So I don't know what the hell I had. Okay. But I didn't know I didn't feel good at all.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #30 Featuring Dr. Robin Rose! The Gut Microbiome and Covid Expert!! Insight on how the covid virus works, the dangers of spike proteins, long covid concerns, a FULL breakdown of leaky gut, how to treat it, SPORE probiotics and MORE!!
Yeah, I felt horrible. And so you put me on a very nice protocol that I've never done. And within three days, which is by far the shortest, because I've had COVID like six or seven times, literally. And some of them have been wretched. Some of them have been pretty bad, but manageable. But I mean- I had a like two and a half, three week one, one time.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #30 Featuring Dr. Robin Rose! The Gut Microbiome and Covid Expert!! Insight on how the covid virus works, the dangers of spike proteins, long covid concerns, a FULL breakdown of leaky gut, how to treat it, SPORE probiotics and MORE!!
And it seems like they've been different quite a bit too. This was by far the shortest. I don't want to jinx it because I'm still on a hundred percent, but let's talk first about the protocol.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #30 Featuring Dr. Robin Rose! The Gut Microbiome and Covid Expert!! Insight on how the covid virus works, the dangers of spike proteins, long covid concerns, a FULL breakdown of leaky gut, how to treat it, SPORE probiotics and MORE!!
Let's talk about your protocol here because there's, you know, there's so much, excuse me, but bullshit that people talk and go over and act like something doesn't work. At least now we can actually talk about it because people are more up to speed and actually grasp the concept of what was not true and what's true.

Episode #30 Featuring Dr. Robin Rose! The Gut Microbiome and Covid Expert!! Insight on how the covid virus works, the dangers of spike proteins, long covid concerns, a FULL breakdown of leaky gut, how to treat it, SPORE probiotics and MORE!!

to go into this space awesome so then and that's i align so well with people i'm so blessed to talk to people like you and that's why i gravitate to people like you that have kind of taken your knowledge base and went and done something about it on your own and taken control of the situation and help people in the way that they really don't get it from normal health care and so when you start studying gut microbiome you did that like quite a long time ago correct

What am I, 43? I started, I mean, I was doing classes and everything at 14 years old. Some people get amped for it. Like I... I look forward to it and I get amped for it. I have no, no butterflies anymore. No sweats, no fast heart, nothing at all. It's like, it's excitement, but you have to, that doesn't come naturally. You have to overcome and get used to it. And you will more comfort.

Yes. Here's what you have to have in your corner. It's so important. Well, two things. One, you have to have thick ass skin where you can need to be open to all criticism and take it as help and not like, oh, you hurt my feelings.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #30 Featuring Dr. Robin Rose! The Gut Microbiome and Covid Expert!! Insight on how the covid virus works, the dangers of spike proteins, long covid concerns, a FULL breakdown of leaky gut, how to treat it, SPORE probiotics and MORE!!
And you have to be able to take that and listen to it and then use it as your fuel to go, man, because I always tell my wife, if I'm being annoying, if I'm talking too much, if I look like shit, tell me so I can fix it. Right. So you have to be open to constructive criticism.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #30 Featuring Dr. Robin Rose! The Gut Microbiome and Covid Expert!! Insight on how the covid virus works, the dangers of spike proteins, long covid concerns, a FULL breakdown of leaky gut, how to treat it, SPORE probiotics and MORE!!
So once you're open to that, then you can go back and rewatch what you did and go, okay, maybe this person's just hating or maybe this person's really telling me the truth. And you can judge by audience reaction and how you view it. Right. But you, you can't live in fantasy land and think that, oh my gosh, I do everything great.

Yes. There's no room for sensitivity when you're trying to be successful. There's just not, you know, and, and I'm, I'm big on that. You have to be able to be tough to be successful. So just wanted to throw, I'm sorry. I get really riled up with that. Cause I'm like really trained for that.

It's gotten so more prevalently talked about and discussed now where people are realizing that that is one of, if not the key issue to almost every problem we have. Essentially, it's either a cell problem, and if it's not a problem with your cells, it's your gut, right? It's one of the two. Everything's originating from there.

No, I know. It's wild too, because you would think that more people would be onto this now and understand it, especially with all the studies and the talk and the people behind it. But I guess the best we can do is just keep putting out the info. And I interviewed Dr. Gundry a couple of weeks ago.

Episode #30 Featuring Dr. Robin Rose! The Gut Microbiome and Covid Expert!! Insight on how the covid virus works, the dangers of spike proteins, long covid concerns, a FULL breakdown of leaky gut, how to treat it, SPORE probiotics and MORE!!
Yeah. Well, what I would like to do, since we're running out of time, what I want to do is, if you want to, and I'd love to do this, we'll do a part two where we discuss long COVID, the vaccine, and more on ivermectin in greater detail, so we can get into that and do a whole episode on that, because I think that that will be a good follow-up to this, where we kind of covered all of COVID.

Episode #30 Featuring Dr. Robin Rose! The Gut Microbiome and Covid Expert!! Insight on how the covid virus works, the dangers of spike proteins, long covid concerns, a FULL breakdown of leaky gut, how to treat it, SPORE probiotics and MORE!!
So, you know, we got into that heavy, you know, and yeah, it's, it's really nice to learn and understand the ways to combat this, the things to look for, because a lot of people don't know, and they just start taking any probiotic under the sun. Don't even know what it does.

But beyond that, what I would say is just a huge breath of fresh air because of the way that she goes about her teaching, the compassion that she shows, and the knowledge that she has. So we're going to dig into a lot of different topics today that I think some people are either scared to touch on or don't know a lot about, have misconceptions, have like hearsay things.

I'll tell you a quick, quick story. And I've kind of gotten into this with you, but I haven't. So I got into a lot of trouble when I was younger. And when I went to prison, I was there. And when I first got sent to the actual, actual prison, right, I had no shoes and they just give you steel toe boots. And mind you, I had been locked up for a while before, so I hadn't cut my hair.

Do you remember Southern Research Company? I remember... Oh, man, there was another one. It was called Peptides, but they had the best S4 I've ever used in my life. But anyway, okay, so I got fascinated immediately with SARMs. Now, at the time, the only SARMs you could buy, MK2866 and S4, and then we, MK67 is not a SARM. No, it's not.

Exactly. That's what's funny about all this. So I run those, and what they did to me, after I ran them, I dedicated all my studies to that. Admittedly, I studied the peptides, but at the time, there was like seven or eight peptides. Yeah, there was nothing out.

When I started running that, first of all, it made me throw up every night, no matter what the dose. Horrible shit, dude. Every single night. And I'm talking within 30 seconds. And so that was a bad experience. But then that was it. Right. So, I mean, there was now there's thousands of peptides, but at the time it was under 10.

So when you started and looking into it to what it is now, I mean, I don't think a lot of people, when they look at a catalog, have a fraction of a clue of what they're looking at. No, they don't. There's a... Few group of people like, you know, in our biohacking and doctors that are naturopathic doctors.

And one of the things that you see, and you know this, go attempt to do like an SEO search and you type in, and now Google's kind of modified things, but there will be companies that put out like $25,000 freaking press releases that are all fake and that rank at the top saying that they're saying everything. And so when people go search, they think they see that.

You know, that was always the argument with SARMs was like, oh, they don't do what Winstral does. Now that it's so prevalent. And then this makes it way more mainstream. Because when you start talking about bodybuilding and steroids, dude, you're talking about a niche group of bros.

There's more side effects. There's less fat loss. And I find it to be the most problematic. I feel like at this point, and I've seen on research sales sides from things I've analyzed, that it's just going tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick. And obviously with triseptide, everybody's looking for GLP-3 because it's becoming less easy to find. I feel like

Yes. If you, so like, for instance, if I was to go to, and I can tell you, so I'm like, if I look at mine, I know I'm like 45% fat, 40% protein, 15% carb. Cause I know how to multiply nine grams of fat, you know, So if I'm taking a hundred grams of fat, we take it by nine, I got 900. Okay. It's very simple. You don't understand the difficulty and you get four and four from protein and carbs.

So, OK, here's my question to you. And I talked to Dr. Yerth to Betsy about this because I didn't have as good of a background on it, admittedly. So she she was really against the use of NAD plus and pretty much looking and advising and guiding me towards M&N and 1M or NMN. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. And so I want, because you know, NAD Plus is the freaking craze with everybody.

No, and I know because I can tell by how much more I've been talking to you lately. And I knew, man, and we both had a lot going on. I'm just going to say a couple things and I'm going to get into the questions with you just so the audience knows. So, I mean, most people that listen to me know I started doing this in like 2011. So I've been doing it a very long time.

And, man, I have so many different experts and people that know everything and do this and do that. And, look, I was one of those assholes, too, you know, when I was younger and thought I knew everything. But what I can tell you is this. I've met a lot of really smart people. I've met a lot of people that are really full of it and a lot of people that just regurgitate stuff.

Episode #20 AN EPIC Featuring Peptide Expert Jay Campbell! EXPLICIT! THE TRUTH BOMB EPISODE! Evolution of peptides, GLP-1 FACTS, Battling misinformation, Carbs and Fats Myths, NAD+ Craze, The importance of bloodwork, Hormone optimization and more!
And when I met you, I told you right when I met you, I said, where have you been my whole life? I've never met you. And why did I take me this long to meet somebody that I was so much like? But in actuality, and I don't give, I don't say this lightly, trust me, because it's hard for me to compliment because I just, I think people do it too easily. You have... some of the best content.

proficient in like the, the energy levels and maybe endurance levels aspect.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
Because of what you taught me, I mean, you've seen some of the content I've been doing. You've inspired me to really dig deep on a lot of different concepts, but we're going to start with Methylene Blue. And I know it's your wheelhouse. There is nobody that I feel is more suitable to discuss this than you. And so that's why I'm really looking forward to this now.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
That was a tremendous answer more than I even expected, but it was very insightful. You have me thinking a million different ways now, but I'm going to look into that later, but yes, on the endurance side, I think it's clear that you're getting energy because you know, mitochondria makes ATP, you're fixing mitochondria, you're going to get energy.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
But my, my question was in terms of the strength, can that be expected at all? Because you know that, when we're talking to wider people, audiences that are looking to use this now, it's not just going to be people that need health benefits. You're going to have athletes, bodybuilders, everybody looking into this. So is there any strength benefit?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
Is there any possible type of muscle gain or sparing capability there? And there may not be, but I know this question is going to come up.

Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
Methylene blue, I'd like you to kind of get into the craze about it because it's really taken off and I feel like you've contributed to a lot of that with teaching and everything. Why do you think it's taken off like it has so quickly?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
Interesting.

Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
That's very interesting.

Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
Yeah. And interestingly enough, then, that would be
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
something that I think would be hugely beneficial to a lot of like bodybuilders that are doing physique shows, especially because I will tell you this, that people don't understand when they think of cardio, you get muscular endurance and you're doing cardio by trainings, you know, super setting 30 second rests in between sets, but it's difficult when you're trying to lift heavier and your heart rate is going, obviously you've got muscular fatigue, but you've also got regular fatigue because you're training at that rate and that pace.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
So that's interesting. OK, so I'll tell you right now, I do very hardcore cardio training and I split my day because it's just it's three and a half hours straight of doing what I do. So I take the methylene blue early in the morning when I go on a walk and then I come home and do 90 minutes of cardio. That's when I take it. And that's what I'm noticing.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
So I'm going to have to try to implement that before my actual physical training and see how I do on that as well. And I can give you some data.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
Okay. So I got a couple of blood marker questions for you. So you brought up inflammation as one of the things that methylene blue can benefit. I want to know then if I was to take a blood panel, because I analyze blood panels daily, and I was looking at somebody and I had them on methylene blue, could I expect like their high-sensitivity C-reactive protein to go down?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
Is that something that I could see? And what other potential, I know you can't say with certainty, but what are the potentials that methylene blue could improve, like say your liver values or blood counts or micronutrients? Is there anything that I could look at and I would expect to see an improvement on?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
Okay. Okay. Perfect. So Given the popularity, that means that obviously more people are going to start selling it and they're going to be able to try to take advantage of this. A lot of places will not have any idea what they're doing, making, selling, where it's coming from, raw materials coming from, who knows where. I know for a fact because that's my world. So I've seen it everywhere.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
Let me ask you a couple of questions then when it comes to bioavailability on how it's taken. And then I kind of, I definitely want to get into dosing after this, but in terms of how we're ingesting it, because I've seen now liquids, I've seen capsules. Obviously you have with proscriptions, the trochies that turn your, you know, everybody's seen the blue tongues and that's, you know, right.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
seems to be one of the more favored methods of taking it. Can you tell me and everybody if there's a superior form and if there's things people need to be careful of? Because now that I'm seeing the capsules and things, I'm very, you know, hesitant or not understanding if it's all the same or if there's a certain method that's going to be better than others.

Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!

Welcome back to the Dylan Gemelli podcast. So you can see if you're watching on video and if you're not, I've interviewed my guests before. It was a tremendous interview. We hit home on so many different topics, but see, he taught me so much in our first episode that we had to come back and do it again and dig deep into a lot of new news and things that are being passed around. So
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
Okay. Awesome. All right. So I'm going to welcome you into my world a little bit. I'm going to do a small tangent. I don't want to talk too much, but I have to talk about what you brought up because this is one of my wheelhouses. Please. And what I'm talking about is
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
liquid dosing and COAs and the raws coming in and the testing and then reconstituting into liquid and the solvents that are used and how it's done. Being that I've been around research companies for so long, I know the entire methodology and the way it goes. First, let me say this about certificates of authenticity.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
When the raws are coming in from China, if they can mimic and create a Louis Vuitton purse that looks just like a Louis Vuitton, they can certainly make a fake COA and they do it quite well. There's nobody... in the entire world that can make replicas better than they do in China. So if you're getting raws from there, you best be testing the COAs triple time at times.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
And so it's really nice to hear, and I'm not saying you're getting raws from China, but a lot of places that now are research companies are selling methylene blue, they're doing liquids, and that's step one of where there's a problem. They don't test a lot of their peptides, their SARMs, their
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
come in so they're certainly not tested methylene blue they're just going to assume because it's cheaper than those raws that they're getting what it said it's coming with a third party certification to see exactly and a lot of them come in chinese language you don't even know what the hell it says if they're coming from out of there yep secondly when you're reconstituting these big batches which they're doing in liquids of of anything
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
it makes it very difficult to get an accurate dosing into each bottle, right? Especially the people that don't know how to reconstitute properly, whether it's temperature timing, or they may not even be using the right solvent. So when you're testing those things, that's part of the reason why. Number three is when those those are listed, it'll say 20 milligrams.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
So it's generally 20 milligrams in a milliliter. Well, like you said, some of these companies, what they do is they put too much in there on purpose to make you feel like you're getting more than what you actually are. So you could be double, triple dosing one milliliter, maybe 60 milligrams and you wouldn't even know it. It's the same thing.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
Same trick they do with underground steroid testosterone and things where they dose them higher. So you think you're getting better quality when in fact they're hurting you. So, you know, it's, it's very, it's a slippery slope, like you said, and that's why it's important, especially with something like this, because like I said,
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
A lot of these companies, they're not ever going to test these because the raw materials aren't expensive as a lot of other things for it. So they're just going to throw them in and not really care. And you have to be careful with the liquids. A lot of people don't understand what the milligram per milliliter thing is. Yeah, that's what I don't understand.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
And if you look at it, it's like, what the hell is this? But if you break it down, it's like every... full droppers, one milliliter, and it's telling you there's 20 milligrams per each full dropper and one milliliter, right? So sorry, I had to throw that in there to explain. No, it's good.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
Yes. I mean, literally, if you got any kind of skill behind a computer, you could make one look perfect and you'd never know the difference. And when we were, you know, when you're talking about liquids, there's the solvents that a lot of times you have to use. Well, one specific compounds require specific solvents.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
And if you use the wrong one, that's part of the problem of like the degradation or the integrity of the compound you're even using. But two, a lot of the solvents aren't good for you. glycol is not good for you. Everclear, which is used to reconstitute a lot of things, grain alcohol, not good for you. So these are other things that you have to think of too.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
Now, before we transition into the juicy stuff that we have to get into, I do want to go back to the dosing really quick because for somebody like me, that's learned from you, but still not comfortable answering a lot of things yet. And I don't, I defer, I point people to your direction, but
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
literally the two most common questions that I get, we've already covered one, which is what are the benefits and what can I expect? But two is how to dose this. And I always kind of, I look for your literature and, you know, and I understand the scenarios are different. I like to stick on that micro dosing, but I guess let's talk about general dosing for an everyday person and then
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
I want to talk about like cycling it or how many days a week or, you know, you should do it or not because there's confusion there.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
So what I generally do, so we can talk about like just my personal to give you an idea of what I do. So most of the time I use blue canatine, half a trochee in the morning with, and I told you this before, and I take the Tromune with it, even though I know the Tromune technically should make you like more sleepy or tired. It doesn't do that.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
And then I have coffee right after. So I do that. But then if I do the just blue, I'll do half also. Like I'm on a packet of that right now. But I do that like every week. I don't know, every month, once a month I do that. And then I stick with the can of teen, but I go about five days and those are my workout days. And then the two days I, I stopped taking both.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
And I do like the five days back on when I'm working out, unless I'm just wrecked on the, like a bad day, which generally doesn't happen, but on the weekend, but I figured take the days off. I'm not working out and I'm maybe not working as much, you know, on the computer. So yeah.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
Is that a pretty good protocol?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
I feel a stronger mental acuity and awareness and sharpness when I take Bucanatine, which is one of the reasons that I like it. Makes sense. I'm not saying I'm not a morning person, but for me, I tend to get better as the day goes on. And that makes it an easier start for me oftentimes, because I don't think that one should drink coffee right away in the morning.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
It's better to wait about 90 minutes. So that's kind of my start when I go on a morning walk and take that on the walk, get home, get acclimated, then make the coffee. And it works well for me personally, just to kind of share some data with you and info for others that are looking for methodologies. let's transition now to the, to the big, the big fun topic that we definitely have to address.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
And I wanted to make sure I left plenty of time for that. So, all right. Now, like you said earlier, when something gets really popular, it becomes really polarizing and people utilize that to their advantage. Like we said, to get clicks, oftentimes saying things they don't know, or someone will put out some published study about blue brains, for example, or things like that. So let us do this.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
Let's pick out, you give me, because you would know better than me, I know some of the myths that are being passed, but I want you to pick out two to three of the most troubling or the ones that are getting the most headlines that we need to debunk now.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast

Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
Let's do it. And which, just for reference points, if we can say who says it, it doesn't matter. So who are the people that have put out these references or myths that we're going to debunk?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!

Well, I just, I looked it up while you were talking and unfortunately, because of the way that, you know, people search it and the way it ranks, the AI immediately pops up and says, yes, methylene blue can stain organs, particularly the brain and heart causing a distinctive blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. According to an article published in science direct.com. So it's,
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
My recommendation, yeah. You know what? And this is just me and you spitballing here. The recommendation would be to put out some sort of article doing exactly what you just explained that could pop and alternatively combat that so that when it's searched and viewed, that an alternative response would be given as to why.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
And that's how you can kind of combat something like that to get the message out on top of like doing this. just for, I dig it for reference, you know, to be helpful.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
Right. And that was my initial thought right off the bat was, okay, how many people has he observed this on? How can he prove this? What has he seen that would indicate this? Or is this just something he heard and read? And I saw him, I watched some things on his that I like and that I don't like, like a lot of people.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
But he was on some sort of show and they asked him, what was the one supplement that you are bothered by or annoyed by? That's the one, yeah. And he sat there and went and thought and thought, well, methylene blue will, you know, obviously because it's causing him probably issue with something he's doing and he doesn't like it taking all the steam and being talked about.

Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
I just if you're going to go directly at something. You should have a lot of data to back it up and a lot of experience to back it up to make any sort of substantial point or credible, you know, aspect that you're given. So anyway, I, you only had to talk for about 30 seconds on that where I knew that was bullshit, but I appreciate the breakdown. So let's, it's okay.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
So I just want to touch on a couple of things and bring up a couple of points and see if you agree with what I've learned and what I've come to see and find out when it comes in relation to mitochondria dysfunction or when things start to go and maybe as to why.

Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
I mean, and I've been in class and study, and so I've looked at studies and analyzed them now and seen things right on paper that are that. are facts and, you know, mitochondrial function, ATP production, it starts to decline probably when we get into our later thirties or early forties, based on everything and piece of literature I said, and I'm seeing an eight to 10% decline per decade.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
And that's just general, just normal, maybe on somebody that's even in good health. And, you know, you can have what skeletal, just decreased skeletal muscle function. You could lose mass because of that. what's the entire process of creating new mitochondria slows down when we get older. I think that's a well-known fact. So that means that we have a lower number of healthy mitochondria.

Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
You brought up so many good points. I will say this before we move into some of the benefits and the way that it works, because I want to get into that again a little bit deeper before we kind of get... But I want to point something out that you said that is so very true that people have to be very careful of.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
So I don't know how they could say or determine who or what, because some people start to have a degradation of mitochondria at a younger age too. So I don't know how one could say that or prove it that someone's optimized or not based on mere side effects and especially, you know,
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
Yes. And that's why it tends to start happening at that age because when you start, I mean, essentially, I don't want to sound morbid, but when your mitochondria start to die, you essentially start to die. That's like the dying process, correct? I mean, of course, pretty much. And don't all diseases generally start in the mitochondria or the cell membrane in general. Yep. mostly.

Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
And then I guess you would look alternatively to the gut if it's like that extra five or 10% that's left over, but everything- Yeah.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
Yeah. I'm curious about something. I don't know how versed you are on peptides or not. So if you're not, just throw this to the side. But I'm curious if methylene blue kind of stacks well with anything else, especially on the side of mitochondrial health.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
So I'm thinking, and this isn't peptide related, but urolithinate or peptide related, something like MOTC or SS31 that are really may have different functions or mechanisms of action that could coincide and be very synergistic with it. Or is that, am I just, you know, creating something that's not there?

Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
And that is tricky titles, clickbaits, things that people say without really knowing what they're saying, but they're just looking for viewers. Some people want to play that villain role. They want to play the heel. And it might not even be who they really are. The problem is, is then they create this confusion into people's head and it's misguided and it's not right.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
Yeah. And I will point this out and I, you kind of mentioned this earlier, but This is something I face when people come to me with a certain problem and I'm digging and I'm like, look, your hormones have to be optimized for a lot of these things to work. So we have to make sure that we're making lifestyle changes while taking these things too.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
So if you're taking a methylene blue, you're taking something else to optimize your mitochondria. You still got to make other changes in your life, sleep better, lower stress, eat better, workout, exercise. These things are not going to work if you don't help them work, right?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
Awesome. I know we're getting lower on time, but I do want to, I talked to you about this prayer.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
I want to talk about, cause I saw you talking about sleep and I saw you just, we talked about GABA in the last episode, but I'd like to get into a little more because you know, and you know, this as a, as an expert, as a professional and you teach these things, but you don't always do exactly what you teach because you're doing so much. Like I'm doing so much.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
So my point is, is that I know how important sleep is, but I haven't valued it enough until recently. And some of the things that you've said have helped me take a different perspective at looking at sleep. I'm going on Molly Eastman's podcast soon on the Sleep is a Skill podcast.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
Yes, and that's why the Viva Rays that I'm working with now because of, and I'm trying to teach people about sleep importance. And so you've been a pretty good beacon of knowledge on that too. So I'd just like to get some aspects on maybe why sleep, do people have so many sleep issues?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
And I know that's a loaded question, but there's certainly some chemical aspects or things to look at aside from stress and aside from eating like shit and everything. But on the chemical side or your side, what are some of the problems and issues and how is the GABA relationship there?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
And some people feel threatened because maybe they have a product line and they're not selling that and it's taken away from that. But there's normally a motive there. Unless somebody can sit down and go back and forth with an expert like yourself that's willing to do that and to go blow for blow in a good, polite way with answers and questions, I'm sorry, but the credibility to me is not there.

Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
Real quickly, because I can't really give a good enough intro for my man here because he's got so many credentials, but I'm going to do my best. He's a board certified internal medicine physician, and he is certified to practice health optimization medicine. He's a specialist in hyperbaric oxygen therapy, which we talked about in our last episode.

Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
So you brought this up in the last podcast and you just kind of mentioned it here. So if somebody is going to vitamin shop or wherever the hell they get their, their supplements at Amazon, whatever, and they're buying GABA supplements, are you saying that those should not work for them or they shouldn't work?

So yeah, because the, you know, Tro Z has helped me I try to not like depend on it all the time because I got in this thing where I was like, oh, my gosh, I can't I can't sleep without this. And then I started to not sleep as well. And I think it was because it was in my mind.

Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
So if we're looking at that particular product, how would you take is it OK to take it every night or do you recommend like supplementing that to what's the kind of way to the best methodology to use Trozy? And do you think Tro calm with it at the same time? Because that's generally what I do.

Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
Okay. So... How would someone know or diagnose themselves with a GABA disruption problem, that blood-brain barrier issue? Is there telltale signs? Is there a test? What would one need to do to know if that was, in fact, their issue?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #28 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 2! THE METHYLENE BLUE CLINIC! Debunking Methylene Blue Myths, "Blue Brains," Mechanism of Action, Mitochondrial and Athletic Performance Benefits, Proper Dosing Protocols, Quality Control and MORE!!
So how would one, just really quickly, how would one test for leaky gut then? Is there like a blood test or something? Because I know people ask all the time.

I want to see hundreds or thousands of people that I'm either coaching or monitoring or that I have data on that are actually providing it out in forums or studies or whatever the case may be. But... For me, in comparison to you, as a nutritionist and someone that does hormones, I fully understand that every situation is person-to-person specific. Right, exactly.

Yeah. And I've been working with timeline on urolithinase. So I've really been digging deep into mitochondrial health, which is one of the draws I have to methylene blue. And so- Would that be stimulating mitophagy at all or rebuilding or is it just cleaning things up a little bit? And then two, what other type of benefit would it be for an athlete?

So for me, I'm using it in the morning, like a lot of mornings when I'm feeling just a little tired or a little sluggish. It's giving me a kick. It's giving me a kick. Would anybody know like we're talking about in energy levels, but would you notice strength increase with that for like an athlete that's using it as well? Or is it going to be more?

But that was my goal was I had stumbled upon Timeline Nutrition and most specifically Urolithin A through other people that I do podcasts with that I highly respect.

That's one of the things that I loved and drew me so much was the amount of time spent within these studies and over time and the real that that total focus on really putting the information out, making it super transparent, seeing that these studies were not rigged or tweaked, you know, to how somebody wanted them to be unfolded.

Unfortunately and fortunately, because I have seen it so much, I am tuned to see when they're tweaked or when I can see they're manipulated or however the case may be. Now, people are good and sneaky and they got away with words, but I can see how these are done and how well they're done. And that was just one more thing that I want to point out to people.

When you look at studies like this, you can really see the time and the effort and the honesty that was put into them. And that's I feel like some of my work and my calling is to call things out and to put things out there when they're bad, but also when they're good. It shouldn't just be focused on bad, bad, bad, bad, bad.

You need a naturopathic doctor and integrative health practitioner, somebody that will actually look at other things besides the CBC and things like that, that, of course, we need, but really don't tell us a whole lot. So we know it. Testing for mitochondrial function may be a little difficult right now, but let's look at it from this perspective.

What age bracket will you tend to start to see a decline or would you tend to be looking for, okay, this might be an issue that could be going on, you know, because like, for example, testosterone levels in men are going to start dropping generally in your 30s for most and that there's underlying factors. For mitochondrial health, is it any different for men or women?

So let's say you're in your 20s and you're looking at this and go, how is this going to benefit me if I'm you know, I'm probably not declining at this. But then that's where I can come in and say, hey. I'm an endurance athlete and I train professional athletes and I'm a strength athlete.

And for background for people that are maybe new to listening, I do about 100 minutes of cardio five days a week and then another hour and a half of strength training. So I assure you any sort of difference in my cardiovascular training, I know like this.

And I don't want to set times on anything. I am a faster responder to things. I always have been no matter what I've taken than a lot of people are. I don't know why. You know this. Some people are slow. Some people are fast. I've stuck with the 500 milligrams of urolithin A. You guys told me that I would probably need a thousand, but I just wanted to test and learn.

And I can say with certainty, and it's been a little over a month now that I've been doing it. And like I said, I don't want to... Please don't take this as I'm setting a time on this. But within that time frame, I have seen a very nice increase significantly, even on days where I'm getting like five hours of sleep, which I don't recommend with my cardio training.

And more recently, it's really been the last, I would say, six to seven training sessions where I can go. okay, because I haven't been trying to lift heavier, but my strength is significantly rising and I haven't made any other changes. I'm not taking anything else. I did this completely solo.

So I guess my point is athletes, college athletes, it's safe for, I assume, I don't know about teens, you could expound on that, but would you find use for somebody younger that may look at this and go, well, I don't need it because I'm not having a cellular mitochondrial decline?

I mean, that's where I've noticed it the most was in the cardio training. And like I said, when it comes to diet, because I'm so specific and when it comes to cardio, those two things and the way that I am so strict and I know even the slightest change and I factor it, I give it a, you know, I want an average and I factor it.

I'm a very data-driven person and I don't just take that off two or three cardio sessions. I'm taking that off weeks of it now and seeing the, you know, the improvement. I'm not... I I'm far too seasoned to go, Oh, I had a great one today. It's gotta be this, you know, like, no, no, no, no, no. That could have just been, you know, whatever for that day.

This is consistent now to the point where I'm confident that I can say it and, and go and tell people, Hey, I've got real confidence in this. So that's why I wanted to bring that up for athletes because I, when you have something that's multifunctional, because sometimes people will hear one thing and not realize the other aspects of it or the benefits that could be there and all around.

And so I guess another question then would be as somebody younger, I am big on being preventative, delaying the inevitable, mitigating the future, whatever that may be. Would you find a benefit as well, even though let's say we're not

that urolithin a can do and then thinking to myself where have you been all of this time i want to just i want to do everything about it but i want to take it slow for everybody because some of this stuff while it might seem second nature to you and i because we look at it so often that other people are still learning about it so

Delay this, you know, whatever you have to do, but be ahead of the curve and don't be complacent because stuff creeps up on you out of nowhere and not saying it's not fixable, but it's a lot harder to fix and you don't ever want to let it get there.

In short, can you kind of just give a basic breakdown of what is urolithin A? Because it sounds kind of wild and it sounds like, oh, it's something new, fad, which I can tell you it's not. What is urolithin A and why is it so important?

Okay, so we're going to go into your wheelhouse then with this is where I want to shift to because I'm very curious as to what your thoughts are on this and how this can affect the mitochondrial health, the effect on urolithin A maybe benefiting or not benefiting. Let's talk about the diet aspect of this.

Episode #13 Featuring Registered Dietician Jen Scheinman! THE MITOCHONDRIA and UROLITHIN A EPISODE!! The role of mitochondria in cellular health, In depth analysis of Urolithin A , Gut Health's impact on mitochondria, MITOPURE and more!!
Is there a particular diet like, and I'm just making this up, I don't know if this is factual or not, but let's just say, would a low-carb diet have a certain impact on the way urolithin A works or the way that mitochondrial function enhances or declines? You know, certain kinds of foods, certain kinds of diets. Can you kind of talk about that?

So just real quick, what are some good options for polyphenols and omega-3s? Just while we're on the topic, it would be great if you would just give people some good options, like olive oil, salmon for polyphenols and omega-3s. But anything else that maybe is not so common or just some tips that you have would be awesome.

But second of all, you can see the way that you feel and how, even blood markers for me that I'm a three month a guy blood marker. So I know, but I can see just the little small changes, but yeah, those are great points and really great ideas. Um, so I talked to you briefly about this. I just had Dr. Gundry on a week, talked about this for like 45 minutes.

Um, and I want your thoughts on this because there's such a understanding now. And it seems like, I, I don't know, I would say at least over the past, like five to 10 years where this prevalence of understanding the role that the gut plays in everything really, um, How does your gut health factor into your mitochondrial health?

And like, can you stress and discuss the importance of understanding gut health and addressing it and how that ties into not, I mean, let's address the mitochondrial aspect, but just like the whole totality, because it's like the central area of problems. It's like the antagonist of everything that we're having go on here. So could you kind of just touch on that?

I'm going to keep bringing this up every damn podcast I do about focusing on the gut and the mitochondria, because I'm finding that those two things are It's become so clear and apparent to me that those are two of the most important areas to address throughout our entire life.

it's what I'm going to start teaching people to address and to be looking for, because I really firmly now believe based on the studies and the science that I've really put the time into, that those are the two areas that really need the focus. Would you agree with that? Am I onto something?

Yeah. Okay. So one of the things that I wanted to talk to you about too, and I'm going to pull this up here real quick. And let me just point out when you brought up the pomegranate juice. So I drink a half a cup of pomegranate juice a day, and that is in an attempt to help with some calcification I had in my arteries. And just a half a cup of that is like... It's more than enough.

Just let me point that out to people. She brought up six cups. It's not happening. It just, trust me, it's not happening. I have coconut water and everything just to take that thing down. It is a not good. And B the amount of like, even though it's natural sugar that you would get in calories and six cups. No. Not happening.

Episode #13 Featuring Registered Dietician Jen Scheinman! THE MITOCHONDRIA and UROLITHIN A EPISODE!! The role of mitochondria in cellular health, In depth analysis of Urolithin A , Gut Health's impact on mitochondria, MITOPURE and more!!
No, definitely not. So, um, you, you know, you had sent me some trials that I was looking at and reading and I, I specifically pulled these up for a specific purpose for us and, um, The Atlas trial was the one that I was really kind of looking at. And I thought maybe that would be a good one for us to kind of talk about because there were several different things that we kind of touched on.

Episode #13 Featuring Registered Dietician Jen Scheinman! THE MITOCHONDRIA and UROLITHIN A EPISODE!! The role of mitochondria in cellular health, In depth analysis of Urolithin A , Gut Health's impact on mitochondria, MITOPURE and more!!
And I think that discussing how these facts that you gave were done on trial and to see what happened would be really good for the audience to kind of grasp and get an understanding of, wow, okay, this is what this does. So can we just kind of get into the Atlas trial a little bit here?

Episode #13 Featuring Registered Dietician Jen Scheinman! THE MITOCHONDRIA and UROLITHIN A EPISODE!! The role of mitochondria in cellular health, In depth analysis of Urolithin A , Gut Health's impact on mitochondria, MITOPURE and more!!
So touching on that now, because you brought up hormones and I do hormone optimization. So I guess my curiosity then would take me to Would mitochondrial dysfunction play any role in hormone imbalance, say estrogen imbalance, testosterone dropping? And twofold, let's say that that is a cause, would improving it help balance some of those hormones out?

Episode #13 Featuring Registered Dietician Jen Scheinman! THE MITOCHONDRIA and UROLITHIN A EPISODE!! The role of mitochondria in cellular health, In depth analysis of Urolithin A , Gut Health's impact on mitochondria, MITOPURE and more!!
Yeah. So then that brings me to my next question in the sense of because another thing that I'm spending a lot of time on because my wife is going through menopause as well. So I have taken it upon myself to interview some of the best and most brightest people that deal with menopause. So I have I am trying to do as many topics as I can right now, I guess.

Episode #13 Featuring Registered Dietician Jen Scheinman! THE MITOCHONDRIA and UROLITHIN A EPISODE!! The role of mitochondria in cellular health, In depth analysis of Urolithin A , Gut Health's impact on mitochondria, MITOPURE and more!!
But I guess my question would be, what kind of a role would mitochondrial function and improvement help during menopause? Because I mean, obviously, most women generally are going through menopause in their 40s. I've seen very early or very late, but let's just... go by law of average, there would already be a decline there more than likely then in mitochondrial health and function.

So I haven't been able to use my, no, I have, I have two, so I'm going to start mine too, but she grabbed it right away. And then, you know, and so I had to wait, but that's okay.

And we'll get into the different forms I want to talk about of the actual product itself. But let's talk about the skincare. I mean, that's... So I've been... I was a fashion model in my middle 20s. So I've been like an adamant skincare person. I have a twice a day regimen. I'm completely... just enthralled in everything skincare. So I am, this is a great deal of importance and interest to me.

Wow. So, I mean, you can't really go wrong. So let me ask you this then. Could you utilize both the cream and the pill or powder at the same time? And so let's say, let's just say I'm taking 500 milligrams of this. And then I'm putting the cream on as well. Is there a is there a equation there? Am I getting another 500 milligrams with the cream or how does that work? Is that totally different?

just like if you start taking something for your liver for example to get the enzymes down that takes time it all takes time so we have to we all need to understand that and understand the level of patience and the things to look for just to see the improvements so because you get these people that get so frustrated so fast and that's diet training whatever then they just give up or say something doesn't work and they never even give it the chance

problems that occur so when we're talking about using for the wrinkles or tightening of skin perhaps it doesn't necessarily mean this is going to do that the pill form it may right slow or improve skin and everything but the cream is going to be the one that does more of that so to speak or more quickly seen on the surface so there's an aging slowing internally and externally correct

You know, it's funny because I swear to you, when I was in high school and through college, my least favorite, most hated topic and subject was biology. I had to go to community college separate to take it by itself because I literally hated had zero interest into it. And at this point in my life, it is the most interesting thing that I could ever find.

And what I was, when we were talking before I told you I was in biology class right now, well, I'm doing that because of my fascination and interest in my, my disdain for my own personal self for not being interested when I was, I just wasn't, you know, I was into sports. I was into like just nutrition and working out and not the science. And I,

The reason that I got so into it now is because of this and everything that I learned meeting you and learning about what might appear does, what urolithin A is, and understanding and seeing that now. And it has made me realize the importance.

Now, you brought up something that is one of the things that drew me to it, because what I'm always trying to do is figure out how to reverse aging, anti-age, or slow the process down within realistic sense. Brian Johnson think I'm going to live 5,000 years old. I'm not crazy, but I do thoroughly believe, and I want to know your opinion and thought on this.

Episode #13 Featuring Registered Dietician Jen Scheinman! THE MITOCHONDRIA and UROLITHIN A EPISODE!! The role of mitochondria in cellular health, In depth analysis of Urolithin A , Gut Health's impact on mitochondria, MITOPURE and more!!
I do thoroughly believe that we certainly could extend our lifespans or at least the quality of our life and lowering all of the disease and things that we see that are more prevalent. And this is one of the things that draws me to urolithin A. So do you, in your opinion, mind and your belief system, especially through experiencing this, do you believe that we can slow that aging process down?

Episode #13 Featuring Registered Dietician Jen Scheinman! THE MITOCHONDRIA and UROLITHIN A EPISODE!! The role of mitochondria in cellular health, In depth analysis of Urolithin A , Gut Health's impact on mitochondria, MITOPURE and more!!
And this is one of the keys to doing that along with obvious things with diet, nutrition and sleep and things like that. But let's just leave that out and assume people are doing that. Do you think this is one of the keys to doing that and also building a better quality of life? And is that something that we are seeing through study that's attainable by using urolithin A?

I've got so many questions now to go off of that. I'm going to try to, sometimes I have the tendency to throw too many at once. So I'm going to try to remember all these and give them, feed them to you here. So the first one is,

Yeah, I'm not going to make it any secret, which I haven't. When I came to A4M, obviously I came there to learn and to network. I mean, that's the point of going there, but I had specifically set out to come to speak to you guys in person. I didn't know I was going to meet you and Ian that I was so blessed to meet, which made it far more than I expected.

Now, one of the points that you just brought up that I think more people are becoming more aware of is just how significant inflammation markers are and how they're the cause of basically everything, every problem and disease that we have. So by taking urolithin A, and I'm kind of spitballing here blood markers that we're going to look for to see how it's working.

Episode #13 Featuring Registered Dietician Jen Scheinman! THE MITOCHONDRIA and UROLITHIN A EPISODE!! The role of mitochondria in cellular health, In depth analysis of Urolithin A , Gut Health's impact on mitochondria, MITOPURE and more!!
Would you expect like a high-sensitivity C-reactive protein to come down by taking it? Think markers like that. What kind of markers can we look for? Look, I don't want exact numbers. I just want possibilities here on what could happen because everybody's different. Doses are different. Conditions are different. So that's something I stress to my audience.

I'm programmed to do that because I understand how people think. And so promises are one thing and averages are another thing. Would you expect to see some drops in that? And are there any other blood markers that one may look at to go, oh, wow, this is changing. This may be helping me in this regard.

Beautiful. All right. So when it comes to your, like how you shifted to this, because obviously you have a tremendous cardiology background. What was it that triggered this study into microbiome or realization like, okay, we got to start looking at this? Because obviously something clicked for you or something happened. So what was the defining moment or time that that occurred?

So everything that you just said, the low-fat diet, all of the working out, arthritis, all of these things. And mind you, I'm a nutritionist, so I know better, but still not doing the right things.

And the only fat I'm getting, and you're not going to like this and I changed this, is strictly through peanut butter, which I cut the peanut butter out and switched. And I'll tell you about that too. But now I woke up one day and I said, you know what? I went in there and her face hit the floor. I said, here's what I want to do.

Oh, my God. I love it. You know, I love the forward thinking. And when you break something down, I think sometimes because I know how big of a following you have, which is why I followed because it's so forward. But I think that people are resistant because it makes too much sense. Some of the things that like some of the things you say are so logical if you just sit and listen.

But I think because we're so trained and. And, like, one track minded on everything that you just, like, want to accept that and never listen to anybody else. Do you... Because I know like anybody that does what you do, they face some kickback on things and I'd never see you respond or anything. You just do what you do and it's a beautiful thing.

starting like 2010 when I discovered peptides how forward thinking I was with alternative therapies and medicines but it really it hit home and I'm going to bring this up now and I don't want to talk too much about me because I want you to answer these questions but I kind of filled you in on the LP little a that I found out about myself and when I really realized like wow

I told you I went to the Mayo Clinic and they wanted me to stay on the statin and it would be bad practice to do the PCSK9s or take an alternative avenue. And I had done so much research and knew, like I talked about with you, that statins were going to increase my LP little a and that diet, like they were telling me, well, change your diet and exercise more. I said, I can't exercise more.

But here's my question is when it comes to cholesterol and taking blood panels, because I do hormone optimization, but I do coaching now specifically on cholesterol and addressing cholesterol. We need to look at different biomarkers. We need to look at LP little A, ApoB, as opposed to LDL, HDL, triglycerides with our main focus being there. So let me ask you a few questions. Sure.

When it comes to focusing on LDL and total cholesterol, I see, you know, the doctors told me to get my LDL down to 30-some. That's where they wanted it. And I know way better than that. Why is that a bad idea? And two, why or do you agree with me that we should be looking at ApoB and LpA and particle sizes far more than we are focused on the other ends of the spectrum?

Wow. Well, like you said, because I've been told multiple things that I just didn't accept. One, you can't reverse a therosclerosis. You can't reverse plaque. That's what I was told. And I was also told that you test your LP little a once and you're just kind of, you're just kind of screwed. Yep. You're screwed. Yep.

But the point is, is when you hear those things that I mean, that could cause you other problems because it can throw you into depression and bring up, you know, other areas of problems because that will increase inflammation, cause problems. So, yeah. Yeah. I think it's important to do your research and look at different ideologies out there.

that I'm doing a lot of focus on, and that's urolithin A. And so I've watched everything that you've talked about on it, because I have been about, ever since I met the people at Timeline and really started to learn about Mitopyr, and I've been studying, I've been taking biology courses extra for certifications I'm getting. And so I've taken a really deep dive into that. Can you

And it was something that my mom has had her bomb, like my whole family. And I don't want to accept, Oh, it's hereditary and all of that.

so terribly sick for like a week. And I was in college at the time and I was, I had to get up out of class several times and throw up. And I was really, really lethargic.

What the core problem was, you just accept it and move on and that's it. So, okay, let me ask you this then, because how this ties in together on the mental side, just how much does the correlation with the biome play into other facets of health? Let's just say heart health, cardiovascular health, for example, or like liver health.

Any other sort of area of the body or anatomy is like, it seems to me, and correct me if I'm wrong, because you would know more than me, that the gut microbiome and health is tying into all areas of our health. Am I on to something there?

So what is... This is a two-part question. What's the best way to test for a leaky gut or gut issues? And once you find out, hey, I've got an issue here, what do we got to do to correct that? Is it medication? Is it diet? What are your recommendations or methodologies on how to correct that issue?

Wow. See, this is great because this is like another tool in a toolbox for somebody like myself to make a recommendation. If I've scanned and gone through every single component and not finding any issue, I've learned now to look more at the micronutrient side and possibly gut health and cellular health problems. But that's not always the question either.

Some people have all of these things testing out and then you're at a loss and you don't know. I have never... once heard about this. So that brings me into my next question. How do we get this out there? Because my assumption is, and I could be wrong and correct me if I'm wrong, is a lot of general practitioners or doctors aren't saying, well, I don't see anything wrong.

See, and that The older I've gotten and the more that I've worked in health and have understood that really, if you don't have your health, you really have nothing. You can have all the money in the world. You can have whatever you want, all the fame in the world. But if you don't have your health, what's the point in any of it? So there should be no embarrassment to talk about anything.

If anything, you should be as open as possible with all of this. I've been through that, like, you know, not wanting to talk about eating disorder and problems that I've faced.

Okay. So then that would bring this question. If someone constantly is holding urine or, you know, holding too long before they go to the bathroom or whatever the case that that may be, would that potentially cause a pelvic floor problem for them if they're doing that?

So by holding it, you could potentially have a twofold problem by creating a urinary tract infection and creating a pelvic floor issue and did a double whammy on yourself. So there's multiple things that could happen. Okay. On top of not feeling so good while you're holding it. Right. You know, if you hold urine too long, it can sometimes it can give you a headache.

Sometimes it can make your heart flutter. Sometimes it can make you like nauseous. I mean, there's a lot of things that I've seen people have or even myself when I've been like, oh, I'm driving. I don't want to stop because it's a long distance drive, for example, you know, something like that. And so. That's good to know. I had the feeling that that might be the case. Here's another question.

So for instance, like when I'm trained to athletes and been a personal trainer for 20 years now, I guess I guess I'm getting older. But so one of the things that you have to be careful of is even with abs, their muscles, you don't want to overtrain them. If you overtrain them, you can potentially go backwards when it comes to your pelvic floor and you're training them. Is it wise to like

do a set of your 10 minute exercises one day, take a day off, do it again. Can we overtrain those muscles? Can we undertrain those muscles? What's the recommended protocol? And I know that probably depends on the severity of what's there or what's not, but let's just talk about a maintenance plan.

And that's something to be cognizant of. I get some kickback on this, but I always teach people you have to lift smarter, not heavier. Yes, I want people to lift a good amount of weight, especially as we get older. That's not the wisest thing in the world to do because...

Essentially, as we get older and as we age, there's a bunch of degradation going on throughout our bodies, whether it's bone, muscle, joints, ligaments, tendons, all of that and all that pressure. And it all applies. And there's no good or point in trying to lift too heavy and then hurting yourself and being on the shelf forever.

And I get these people that have kicked back and be, oh, you got to lift heavy to gain muscle. Really? Because I've trained Mr. Olympia athletes with 15 pound dumbbells screaming and crying. If you do it right, you do eccentric movements and teach them how to do it properly. But, you know, people get this one track mind. And then just like you pointed out, it can have a

a trickle down effect all throughout your body, right? By doing things that are not necessary to do unless you're in a power lifting competition. And I'm not saying don't, I'm not saying lift baby weights all day, but what I'm saying is do it smarter, do it wiser. And that's just, it all correlates and trickles down.

Now you brought up a hernia and that immediately took me to, is there any sort of correlation between like a weakening of the abdominal walls there that would potentially cause cause that weakening from a pelvic floor issue? Is that possible? Or look at it from the other way. Could developing a hernia cause weakness down there? Let's like invert these in which or both is accurate.

Okay. Sweet. Good to know. All right. So I'm thinking, and because of my background, I automatically always go to diet and supplements. And I don't know if there's, if there's any correlation here at all, in terms of things that we eat or things that we could potentially take to help any sort of pelvic, you know, issue or is there a certain types of diet that could have a negative effect there?

No, it does not. And there is no such thing. And you have to do the work no matter what you take. It doesn't matter. You can take, I always tell people, I can put you on everything under the sun, but it doesn't mean it's going to do anything for you. If you're, first of all, if you're hormonally off, that's the step one where, and then step two is you actually got to do something.

And I would point this out with what you just said. If you actually, because I do this a lot where I'll actually sit down and start to do a full breakdown of, okay, so how many minutes a day do I spend doing the X, Y, Z? You know what I mean? And you'll sit there and you'll do that. And when you act put out to do something that's so minimal and so easy, and what am I doing in place of that?

Well, and that's just it. The level, the problem here is the level of comfort that people will or will not have. And even to talk about things like this or get into it and It's sad because not having that comfort level could make somebody suffer or let something drag on and drag on because they don't wanna talk about it. So that's, it's a wonderful thing. Let's do this first.

And is that helping me in any sort of way whatsoever to be a happier person and Am I thinking long term on what this could benefit me or hurt me?

I mean, you get bad habits and you say it's hard to break, but when you develop good ones. So if I miss the gym or if I miss a day of walking or a day of cardio, I am not pleasant at all.

people will always look one way without factoring in the other way, because there's two sides to all of this. And so people tend to, their minds just go to the negative right away. I've learned to train myself to go, okay, Before I say this sucks, does it suck? What am I doing that sucks that I could replace it with? It'll make my life better. So it's an excellent point.

And that's where I was going with that broad question was I was going to relate this to what I do because there's so many people that go, oh, I'm so young. I don't need to do that. Or, you know, this doesn't apply to me. And I... am so firmly against that because there's so many things that you could find early, for example, that could prevent a problem later.

big problem and caught it early enough, even though I was too young. And they'll tell you, oh, you don't need to test for this. Oh, you only need to test once for this. This is not true stuff. And so that's where I was going to drive with yours is, hey, you could prevent a problem by checking when you're 20 or working on it and catching it ahead of time. And that's why.

And as a man, and I would like to point this out, too, there's things, for example, like on a blood panel, we have to have estrogen just like you have to have testosterone. But men will go or women will say the same thing. And it's like, hey, just because this may be a direct correlation with women, as you pointed out, it's important for men.

And so I just would really hope that any man listening to this would say, I've got these problems. This might be it. And then come and see you and talk to you now.

I'm thinking because I have to go to the chiropractor so often and I've had, I've been in there since I was 17 with my back and everything. Are there misalignments in your body anywhere, especially lower back, which I know a lot of people have shifts in your hips and areas like that, that could also cause a problem down there that like say, so, so for instance,

when I, I broke some vertebraes in my back and it was always strengthen your core, strengthen your core, strengthen your core. I said, dude, I can't strengthen my core anymore.

And that's once again, we'll go back to it again. Addressing the underlying issue to fix the actual issue is sometimes what it takes. I'm glad you talked about the assessment. So let's say, for instance, I come into you and you start giving me an assessment. One, would you take an x-ray if you think there's an issue? Is that something you do?

And two, let's say that you see I'm just out of whack and for you to work on me, I need to get that fixed first. Is that something you say? Do you have somebody in-house that is like a chiropractic that helps with that? Or is it like, Hey, you got to go get this taken care of first, come back to me. And then we can work on this. Like, how does that work when you do find these underlying issues?

That's the key. When I stopped being resistant to talking, like I was very territorial when I started making videos at like way, way back because I was one of the only people talking about what I did and I wasn't working with anyone. Once I put that guard down and collaborated with people and work together with people, I figured out how much more we could accomplish together.

And do this and put – you're being very selfish by thinking you know everything and not working with others to fix somebody's problem. You know what I mean? So that's really a real pleasure to hear that there's – I was probably just an outlier doing the way that I did, you know, and being such a prick. But it's really –

I always say that. I don't know everything. I'm just very good at what I do, but I still defer. I have mentors I defer to that I go to for help and I don't have an answer. I'll get you one. I'm not going to front like I have them all because no human really does. So I think that's important to do that as well.

And I think that this is going to be so enlightening for so many people, and I think it's going to really, really make people, one, more comfortable, and two, more aware.

And I think, and I truly believe that we were able to do that today.

Okay. Well, we got a lot of angles to go here. So you just flipped the script on me now. That's okay. Luckily I can, I'm good on the, on the quick here. So, okay. First though, let me ask you this. And I wonder how this relates. First of all, When do we start to see this muscle problems or is there some kind of degrading that goes down on there? And is it something physical that caused it?

Episode #26 Featuring "The Vagina Whisperer" Sara Reardon! The Pelvic Floor Episode!! A deep dive into pelvic floor therapy, training the pelvic floor, men's pelvic health, becoming the Vagina Whisperer, pregnancy and pelvic health, and more!!

Episode #26 Featuring "The Vagina Whisperer" Sara Reardon! The Pelvic Floor Episode!! A deep dive into pelvic floor therapy, training the pelvic floor, men's pelvic health, becoming the Vagina Whisperer, pregnancy and pelvic health, and more!!
And then how do you diagnose and kind of figure this out that it's something muscle related and not necessarily something else that's going on internally, whether it be a blood work, like do you run blood panels to check to coincide? How does this process go down and work?

See, this is this is what I love about this. So when I do things, I'm programmed in the way that you are where because I deal with a lot of hormone optimization and I get a lot of people that will come in and go to me because they come to me when they can't get fixed by somebody else. Like, you know, because a lot of. even professional endocrinologists don't take the one-on-one time.

I am like the biggest proponent of animal protein as well. And I'm like the biggest animal lover on the planet. And it's hard for me. But I'm talking like pure science and what I've observed over all of the years. So let me ask you this. And I do this with all my guests that come on that are like into nutrition and everything.

What, how do you, cause I'm like a, just so you know, for me, I'm, I'm not like, oh, I hate carbs or the end of the world, but I do like them lower end. I don't like 25 to 50 only a day, but I'm, I'm more in that like hundred range maybe where you're getting some.

And I prefer personally from like vegetables and maybe oats or something like that. But I don't, I don't get into a lot of, even though I'm Italian, I don't, I don't push like the pastas and the breads and everything like that. So what's your, what's your feeling or your stance?

So, you know, sedentary, you're already burning probably a good two to 2200 calories a day for some, most people. And then I'm burning over 3000 working out. So you imagine what I'm going through. And I'm eating like 1600 1700 calories a day. And it's all vegetables, oats and egg whites. And that's it like every day.

I went from 15 grams of fat, which was only from peanut butter or nut butter to now like 100. And I eat about 1000 more calories a day than I was eating. Like before I came on here, I just ate like a half a pound of elk and whatever. And I've never felt this good. And since I was in my twenties, you know, like eating normal.

So the animal fats and I've been coaching people and seen it, but like it opens up your skin and your, your ability to be so cognitively functional, you know what I mean? It's sharp. Yeah, I'm a big, big protein guy. A lot of the people that I talk to, you know, are big protein people. So I, you know, find that most of my diets will be centered like 40, 45% protein, 30, 35 fat and 10, 15 carbs.

you have with, and we're going to talk about this, but being involved in Maha and being right there, this is like my desire where I'm trying to get right where you are and take my voice to the same way, because we have an opportunity right now that we have not had, you know, I've been censored for different types of things, not political stuff, but different types of things for so long before people knew what censoring was.

Yes. OK, we're going to get into that. I got a couple of questions. I'm going to save that because we're going to spend a significant time on that.

I'm going to bring up something here for everybody listening. And I'm going to make a point based upon what you just said. So you're talking about all of these wonderful things that you're working on, these committees, and you're telling me what they're focused on. We're focused on cancer in one. We're focused on school lunches in another. And we're doing this and we're doing that.

Every single thing that one would think would be at the top of the priority list for everybody, right? And my point here is this. Not every single thing that happens that goes on has to be political. OK, so just because your party or whoever you follow isn't the one behind all of this doing good doesn't mean it's not good. Right.

So, I mean, you get people that will that will make comments and say things and think that there's some kind of motive behind every single thing just because it's not good. embedded in their head. Oh, this is who I follow. So this is how it's got to be. You just are laying down list by list by list of beautiful things that, that you're doing.

And I just want people to hear that, see you in person and hear what I'm saying here. This is not political. This is life. This is life changing. We're trying to make a point here. Republican Democrat means absolutely zero, because if you go back in time, the belief systems on each side has gone like this all over the place.

It's it reminds me of an NBA team that's got a different team every year because free agents are flying or it's not the same team. You know what I mean? So the team here should be all of us working together on this and working on these things. You're not going to agree on everything. That's fine.

But the point here is fix our health, like fix our life and stop letting other people tell you how to run your life or control you and run you into the ground because that's what they do. There are so many people that do not care and we finally have people that care. So see that. Okay. There's not a motive that's money driven behind everybody. There's not.

I wanted to drive that home. I don't like to turn everything into that really at all, but it has to be said because we're trying to help right now. The whole point in what I do, because I have been lost for years. This is what God was telling me to do the whole time, and I just finally figured it out because I really wasn't ready to deliver the message properly before like I am now.

But sometimes people don't even know why they hate what they just, because they think they have to like, okay. So like, for instance, I wouldn't eat certain foods forever. Cause I thought I didn't like them and I never even tried them. I just assumed I didn't like them.

It's like, you know, some of the people that I ended up liking the most in my life are the ones that I initially thought that I couldn't stand. Yeah, really, I swear to you so many times in my life, I'd be like, Oh, I don't like this. I'm not gonna say what I'd say after that. And then I'd end up finding out, man, I love this guy, or, you know, like, she's awesome, whatever, you know, and,

OK, let's talk about the glyphosate issue. And, you know, I really started to focus on this a lot, probably the past six months where it's it seems like it's been more prevalently discussed. It's been discussed, but it's really kind of like where you brought up gut health. People kind of knew about it in the past, but right now it's like everybody finally figured it out. Right.

Episode #16 Featuring Liana Werner Gray! The INSPIRATION EPISODE!! Defeating cancer, The Earth Diet, EXPOSING GLYPHOSATE, The Global Wellness Forum, Cancer Prevention Protocols, the power of natural remedies, God's amazing impact, and more!!
So glyphosate issue. I, I swear to you the past, like probably six months, I've spent so much time researching, understanding and learning and trying to figure out what the hell is actually going on. Like the real, not just the basic stuff, like the real stuff. So I want to dig into that with you because this is really bad. And I think it's worse than people could ever dream of understanding.

And I think, you know, um, more than a lot of people do. So first let's just do this. What is glyphosate? How, why is it used and why is it so dangerous?

and has really turned it into something that is destroying people and killing people it's heartbreaking and currently in america 1680 people die every single day so let me ask you this i because i got a ton of questions one when you buy this food and let's say you are aware of this is it something like if you wash and clean the food it's still in the food right you're not getting it off correct

Okay. So, essentially, in short, we know it causes cancer. And they've had 200,000 lawsuits. And like you pointed out, how many people... And I'll say, how many people have gotten cancer, don't know it's from that, would never know. How many people don't have the...

either acumen or the the money or the know-how to go file a lawsuit and what you're saying is is they're somehow asking for immunity what and and this is actually being considered by who by people they pay right because this is government subsidized

Yeah. We have, and let's, let's, okay. So I'm a, I know that everything I do is biohacking and health and wellness, but I'm a business and finance major and that's my background. So let's do some basic, let's just look at something basically fundamental here. You and I, and everybody listening, if I make $200,000 a year, which is probably what, what do they make a hundred to 200,000 a year?

A lot of senators, that's their salary, correct? Something in that range. If you or I made on paper, went to the IRS two or $300,000 a year, and our net worth was like 50, 60, 70 million, don't you think we'd get looked at? Don't you think something would probably throw up a red flag?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #16 Featuring Liana Werner Gray! The INSPIRATION EPISODE!! Defeating cancer, The Earth Diet, EXPOSING GLYPHOSATE, The Global Wellness Forum, Cancer Prevention Protocols, the power of natural remedies, God's amazing impact, and more!!
I mean, if I had like a $10 million valuation on a $200,000 a year salary, I guarantee you they're going to be looking at everything I'm doing. So let's take a 10 multiplier on that and then look at what they're approving and And how messed up it sounds and answer our own questions as to why I'm asking rhetorical questions to you.

Episode #16 Featuring Liana Werner Gray! The INSPIRATION EPISODE!! Defeating cancer, The Earth Diet, EXPOSING GLYPHOSATE, The Global Wellness Forum, Cancer Prevention Protocols, the power of natural remedies, God's amazing impact, and more!!
So people understand you are you and I already know what's going on here. So if you're telling me that Monsanto has paid out five, six billion dollars in lawsuits, then they have to be making like a hundred multiplier off of that in terms of that being potato chips for them to pay out. Now, they're probably getting sick of paying it, which is why they're doing this.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #16 Featuring Liana Werner Gray! The INSPIRATION EPISODE!! Defeating cancer, The Earth Diet, EXPOSING GLYPHOSATE, The Global Wellness Forum, Cancer Prevention Protocols, the power of natural remedies, God's amazing impact, and more!!
But fundamental math would tell you they're probably making over $100 billion to pay out that kind of money, at least. So, I mean, there's a big problem there. And they've probably convinced people and gotten into the heads that all this isn't harmful or whatever in the past. And now we're opening more eyeballs to seeing what is actually going on here.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #16 Featuring Liana Werner Gray! The INSPIRATION EPISODE!! Defeating cancer, The Earth Diet, EXPOSING GLYPHOSATE, The Global Wellness Forum, Cancer Prevention Protocols, the power of natural remedies, God's amazing impact, and more!!
here's a question for you is this in like every single thing that's grown i mean is it like because i've looked at the lists and some of my favorite things and granted we buy everything organic and i know to do that and thank god i have the means not everybody does to do that but your strawberries your blueberries these are like at the top of the list some of the healthiest like fruits that you can buy yeah it's really sad

Episode #16 Featuring Liana Werner Gray! The INSPIRATION EPISODE!! Defeating cancer, The Earth Diet, EXPOSING GLYPHOSATE, The Global Wellness Forum, Cancer Prevention Protocols, the power of natural remedies, God's amazing impact, and more!!
So like even even I even see like organic oats have glyphosate on them sometimes unless they say glyphosate free. Like how is that even happening?

I'm going to ask you about that. First, I just want to ask you a quick question that I've heard like some farmers say, when it comes to food, like I am two, three in the morning guy reading every night.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #16 Featuring Liana Werner Gray! The INSPIRATION EPISODE!! Defeating cancer, The Earth Diet, EXPOSING GLYPHOSATE, The Global Wellness Forum, Cancer Prevention Protocols, the power of natural remedies, God's amazing impact, and more!!
So one of the things I see, I see with oats in general, cause like oats has become this big controversial thing amongst like a lot of the people I respect where one group is like, Oh, these are so great for you. And the other group was like, Oh, they're dog crap for you. You know? So I've done a ton of research there because I've eaten them for years and I put clients on them.

Episode #16 Featuring Liana Werner Gray! The INSPIRATION EPISODE!! Defeating cancer, The Earth Diet, EXPOSING GLYPHOSATE, The Global Wellness Forum, Cancer Prevention Protocols, the power of natural remedies, God's amazing impact, and more!!
So I have read some farmers say, oh, that the do organic. Well, it blows the glyphosate blows into their field and gets onto the oats or whatever they're growing. Is that factual or is that just BS? That's true. Yeah.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #16 Featuring Liana Werner Gray! The INSPIRATION EPISODE!! Defeating cancer, The Earth Diet, EXPOSING GLYPHOSATE, The Global Wellness Forum, Cancer Prevention Protocols, the power of natural remedies, God's amazing impact, and more!!
So how would how OK, two part question, how would one test their body for like glyphosate, like knowing what they have, what kind of tests would you do? And two, if there is a test or not, I don't know. And two, how do we try to get that out of our system, detoxify or what's the best way to to get rid of that?

Amazing that every single answer we could ever want or need is right there in the Bible if people would actually, actually try to understand the verbiage and not take everything that's metaphor, you know, and take it out of context. If you really read it and understand it, everything's sitting right there. It really is.

And yeah, that's what took me so long to do what I'm doing right now, because I wasn't ready. Cause I wasn't God first. I was Dylan first, even though I didn't think I was, I realized I was, I I'm like, Oh, I do everything for my family. I do all this, but then I just, something was always missing. And once I figured that out and you know what I did,

I'm Catholic, raised Catholic, and that's not the point here. I'm just going to tell you how I really sat and learned is I got a study Bible where I was able to take everything I read and everything's broken down at the bottom. So what I would do is I would read a chapter and I would go down and then

Episode #16 Featuring Liana Werner Gray! The INSPIRATION EPISODE!! Defeating cancer, The Earth Diet, EXPOSING GLYPHOSATE, The Global Wellness Forum, Cancer Prevention Protocols, the power of natural remedies, God's amazing impact, and more!!
The explanation is longer than the chapter, you know, and I read the whole New Testament like six months and I sat here every morning for at least an hour to an hour and a half and just read and read and read. And that's what equipped me to be ready to then start doing what I do now. Otherwise, I would have never been able to do this. I just wouldn't have. You know what I mean?

I could have all the knowledge in the world on all of this stuff and wouldn't be ready to handle or do any of this. Now it's like second nature because I know what to do because of that. Not because of anything I'm sharing with you about diet or health or whatever. You're given that ability, right? But you got to learn how to use it and utilize it.

Yeah. You know how much I sit here constantly. How am I going to make money today? How am I going to do this? How am I going to do that? But when I, when I stopped worrying about it so much, obviously it's a concern for everybody that's life. But when you stop letting that dominate your day and you go do things like this, he just gives you everything you need.

No, it's a sin to actually be stressed because you're kind of doubting him and what he's doing and what he said. And you know what I mean? When I started looking at it like that, I stopped having so much stress. I was like, man, you're messing up constantly, you know?

I'm telling you, I just randomly throughout the day, like in the car, I used to either have to be on the phone or have to like have music blasting. And now oftentimes I still like my music, but I'll just start having conversations first with God real quick or just thank him and just say hello. And then just kind of and then I feel like, OK, I feel better now.

I started educating people on protein powders in like 2012 when I really started to understand like these big box companies, like, well, maybe I shouldn't say anything, but some of the bigger ones that you would see that you now like see at Costco and stuff.

So, and they have all of the fake reviews and all of the nonsense that you don't know what's what. And they have the worst, grainiest, cheapest out of the country powders. But they're cheap and they get people to – bodybuilders and people to hold them up and pose with them and take a couple pictures before you know it. And you don't know what you're taking.

If it's not like – I'm very, very cautious with like FDA-regulated facilities and reading the – like really understanding the labels on supplements. Because you look at some of these things and you're looking at them and it's like a foreign language. You know what I mean? And if you're not –

If you're not aware, you don't know what probably 50% of the label is by the time you get down to the bottom, you know? Right. So that you're like, for instance, it'll say like whey protein isolate, concentrate, whatever. And then you start going down and you're like, what the hell is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? You know, and it's nothing good.

Trust me. And when I tell you the longer they are in this, you're going to learn a hell of a lot more and see like things that are just like despicable. And it's good that you have that like mentality and awareness that you can see and know ahead of time and that you have the right heart because a lot of people don't, they don't. And then people wonder why certain things cost more.

Wow. That's why I wrote that down. I've honestly never heard of it before. And this is one of the beauties of doing this. I get to learn so many different things. So this is similar then to something like ivermectin in terms of not necessarily the properties, but this will actually go in and clean out or help to get rid of a parasite, correct? Correct.

Episode #16 Featuring Liana Werner Gray! The INSPIRATION EPISODE!! Defeating cancer, The Earth Diet, EXPOSING GLYPHOSATE, The Global Wellness Forum, Cancer Prevention Protocols, the power of natural remedies, God's amazing impact, and more!!
It's always, it's always beautiful to have these kinds of options and to know, especially something that people can afford to get their hands on, because even ivermectin is not like the easiest thing in the world to get. If you don't know somebody, you know, I mean, I can get it very simply, but not everybody can. Yeah.

So you found your functional doctor then in Australia, correct, is where you found that. So with the parasites, now you do believe that the cancer was caused from the binge eating and all of the junk food, correct? 100%. Yeah.

Episode #16 Featuring Liana Werner Gray! The INSPIRATION EPISODE!! Defeating cancer, The Earth Diet, EXPOSING GLYPHOSATE, The Global Wellness Forum, Cancer Prevention Protocols, the power of natural remedies, God's amazing impact, and more!!
Okay. It all makes sense. That is, I don't want you to have to like divulge too much into this, but was this like a seven day a week thing with the binge eating? I mean, was it like to that extent? Oh yeah. Okay.

What ultimately helped you to stop and how did you find the tumor? Did you just start to have a growth or was it through blood work or what? How did that come about as well?

Episode #16 Featuring Liana Werner Gray! The INSPIRATION EPISODE!! Defeating cancer, The Earth Diet, EXPOSING GLYPHOSATE, The Global Wellness Forum, Cancer Prevention Protocols, the power of natural remedies, God's amazing impact, and more!!
Wow. Okay. So is that what got you to stop binge eating then was just that you had the tumor? Or was there something else that helped you stop? Because I know that's not easy if you've been doing that for that long.

And this is one of the reasons why I love these so much. So we're talking, I had some things like, okay, that I know I want to talk to you about, but you've just brought me into something else that I don't think there's enough information on. I think you would be well, well versed on, and I want to get this information out there.

Episode #8 Featuring Dr. Elizabeth Yurth MD, ABAARM, FAARM, FAARFM! GLP-1 Benefits, Misconceptions and their Future, Comprehensive Hormonal Testing, Women and Testosterone Importance, The Evolution of Peptides and MORE!
For women that are looking... Well, first of all, what kind of symptoms does a woman have that may be a little different than a man in terms of low testosterone? And what ages and what kind of things cause that in a woman? And some people don't get it. And I get it from being in the bodybuilding world. But if a man... crushes their estrogen, we got a problem. We got a big problem, right?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #8 Featuring Dr. Elizabeth Yurth MD, ABAARM, FAARM, FAARFM! GLP-1 Benefits, Misconceptions and their Future, Comprehensive Hormonal Testing, Women and Testosterone Importance, The Evolution of Peptides and MORE!
And same with the women. I know that estrogen is dominant in women and vice versa testosterone, but I don't think people truly grasp the concept of you still need some, right?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #8 Featuring Dr. Elizabeth Yurth MD, ABAARM, FAARM, FAARFM! GLP-1 Benefits, Misconceptions and their Future, Comprehensive Hormonal Testing, Women and Testosterone Importance, The Evolution of Peptides and MORE!
So just real quick, everybody, as she said, I met her last year, not this Olympia last year, just very briefly. And then I had the honor of actually getting to sit next to her and speak, which may have been a little out of my league, but we... started talking immediately and I'm just so grateful and thankful for everything that you do and all of your teaching.

So I, uh, I'm going to exploit you a little bit today and, and get as much info as I can. Great. Let's go for it. All right. So one of the things that you talked about that I literally had no clue about that caught me off guard at the Olympia was this new form of oral testosterone. And you know,

Episode #8 Featuring Dr. Elizabeth Yurth MD, ABAARM, FAARM, FAARFM! GLP-1 Benefits, Misconceptions and their Future, Comprehensive Hormonal Testing, Women and Testosterone Importance, The Evolution of Peptides and MORE!
Right. So really young. You know, one of the things that I want to stress while I've got you here to people in general is when you go to a doctor, They really their answer to everything is just a CBC and a CMP panel, if anything. Right. They did complete blood counts and metabolic profiles, but they don't look at hormonal panels. They don't do comprehensive cholesterol testing.

Episode #8 Featuring Dr. Elizabeth Yurth MD, ABAARM, FAARM, FAARFM! GLP-1 Benefits, Misconceptions and their Future, Comprehensive Hormonal Testing, Women and Testosterone Importance, The Evolution of Peptides and MORE!
I found out some things about myself had I not been educated and right. Proper tests. You know. Exactly. Lucky I caught some of the things early, right? So I think it's important that people understand, look, there's plenty of resources out there that you can go get online or you can just tell your doctor, look, I want this shit checked.

Being where I kind of come from, Andrea and everything on the forums was people were talking about that. And I was always like, it's not so great. And so I'm intrigued. Tell us about this new form of oral testosterone and some of the facts behind it and where you kind of see it going in the future.

You know, I was working with Dr. O'Connor last year and he made me go get a calcium score and he said, it's probably going to be zero. You know, you do everything perfect. And I went in there and my score was 120. And so I start to dig and I find out my LP little a was like 350. Wow. Yeah.

Episode #8 Featuring Dr. Elizabeth Yurth MD, ABAARM, FAARM, FAARFM! GLP-1 Benefits, Misconceptions and their Future, Comprehensive Hormonal Testing, Women and Testosterone Importance, The Evolution of Peptides and MORE!
No, had I not done that, I have a 30% blockage. And then they just, statin this, statin that. I went to the Mayo Clinic and they told me, because I said, look, I want PCSK9 inhibitors. I want Vasepa, I want Repatha. And they looked me in the eye and told me that would be bad practice. The statin is the answer.

Episode #8 Featuring Dr. Elizabeth Yurth MD, ABAARM, FAARM, FAARFM! GLP-1 Benefits, Misconceptions and their Future, Comprehensive Hormonal Testing, Women and Testosterone Importance, The Evolution of Peptides and MORE!
And I told my mom and my wife in the car back home for three hours, what a waste of time that was, that a statin has no bearing on LP little a. I knew more than they did about it. Right. Exactly.

Episode #8 Featuring Dr. Elizabeth Yurth MD, ABAARM, FAARM, FAARFM! GLP-1 Benefits, Misconceptions and their Future, Comprehensive Hormonal Testing, Women and Testosterone Importance, The Evolution of Peptides and MORE!
I had to go through this process where they wanted this to be elevated, that to be down. And I'm like, that's impossible. It can't be done. And that makes no sense because I'm hurting myself. Anyway, you know how it is when you know people. I got both. And so every year...

Right. I just had that battle right now. My vasepa renewal came up and they wanted to put me on the generic. I know one of the head people that produces it. And he said, no, the generic is missing X, Y and Z. Don't do it. And I just fought with them until they just they gave it to me.

Of course. I mean, I even just recently, I had to go through that where I went, I had, well, first of all, my liver values got elevated through the roof. And then I started to have, I found some problems in my urine when I got it tested. And then I got a rash out of nowhere. And I went to the ER and they told me, oh, you're fine. And I looked at her and I said, I'm not fine. No, I'm not fine.

Episode #8 Featuring Dr. Elizabeth Yurth MD, ABAARM, FAARM, FAARFM! GLP-1 Benefits, Misconceptions and their Future, Comprehensive Hormonal Testing, Women and Testosterone Importance, The Evolution of Peptides and MORE!
And then I did it. I had blood in my urine. out of nowhere. And then they said, I said, you know what? Fuck this. I'm getting online. I went to myuti.com, acted like I was my wife, got my own shit and was fine in a week. I mean, that's what it's come to where it's like, Okay.

I'm not advocating that at all, but I am saying be diligent because you know, learn. Yes. General practitioner means general. They're not specialized really in anything. Somebody like you as a specialist, like that's what I seek out, especially for a problem, you know? Right.

Episode #8 Featuring Dr. Elizabeth Yurth MD, ABAARM, FAARM, FAARFM! GLP-1 Benefits, Misconceptions and their Future, Comprehensive Hormonal Testing, Women and Testosterone Importance, The Evolution of Peptides and MORE!

Episode #8 Featuring Dr. Elizabeth Yurth MD, ABAARM, FAARM, FAARFM! GLP-1 Benefits, Misconceptions and their Future, Comprehensive Hormonal Testing, Women and Testosterone Importance, The Evolution of Peptides and MORE!
Yeah. Exactly. Okay. So I want to shift gears a little bit here because you know kind of my background is more like research chemicals, peptides, SARMs, and then hormones, which we already talked about. Yeah. I told you this when we were talking before that I was like, I don't I didn't know people like you even existed.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #8 Featuring Dr. Elizabeth Yurth MD, ABAARM, FAARM, FAARFM! GLP-1 Benefits, Misconceptions and their Future, Comprehensive Hormonal Testing, Women and Testosterone Importance, The Evolution of Peptides and MORE!
I just figured that like my whole realm is all of these bros I have to deal with and all this bullshit. And when I started studying peptides, it was 2011. They had just kind of research. Chemicals were just kind of a new thing. Yeah. You know, nobody talked about them. Nobody knew what SARMs or peptides were at all. And there were.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #8 Featuring Dr. Elizabeth Yurth MD, ABAARM, FAARM, FAARFM! GLP-1 Benefits, Misconceptions and their Future, Comprehensive Hormonal Testing, Women and Testosterone Importance, The Evolution of Peptides and MORE!
Shit, I bet you there was maybe 10 peptides to choose from on a site, and it was your GHRPs, your pomorelin, and CJC-1295, and that was about it. I mean, there was... Yeah, there was not much, right? No, SARMS-wise... Yeah, yeah, yes. SARMS-wise, there was two. It was 2866 and S4, and then... two sites at MK six, seven, seven, it was like $400 a bottle. Nobody bought it.

Episode #8 Featuring Dr. Elizabeth Yurth MD, ABAARM, FAARM, FAARFM! GLP-1 Benefits, Misconceptions and their Future, Comprehensive Hormonal Testing, Women and Testosterone Importance, The Evolution of Peptides and MORE!
It was just way out of reach and nobody understood it. Right. So all you knew is you got a ton of water retention from it when you first started. And that was about it. So tell me, first, I want to start off with this. When did for you, especially when did you kind of realize just how wonderful peptides were? And when do you feel like it started to,
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #8 Featuring Dr. Elizabeth Yurth MD, ABAARM, FAARM, FAARFM! GLP-1 Benefits, Misconceptions and their Future, Comprehensive Hormonal Testing, Women and Testosterone Importance, The Evolution of Peptides and MORE!
break out more mainstream, I guess, or get more popular. So for me, with SARMs, when they got popular was when pro-hormones got banned. And all of the people selling pro-hormones freaked out. Like, what are we going to do? And then they started...

Well, and it's twofold, right? Because there's good and bad in both. So like for where I'm getting it from, the good is, well, I guess this is good and bad. There's so much trial and error done. Now there's a lot of mistakes made.

But it's, and I hate to say, I don't want to sound like negative about this. It's helped me learn information wise, but it's, I've seen people hurt themselves, which I don't, I hate seeing, but it's helped me to educate others. Don't do this. You know, like don't, don't use it this way.

You get stuck with... Okay, for example, I come from bodybuilding forums and things like that is how I got started. And the whole ideal there is, oh, doctors don't know shit. And that's what gets passed around. And that's what is thought in that whole community. And I fell into that for years, once again, until I met somebody like you and realized, no, no, no, no, no.

And that's why I wanted to bring this up because I'm versed on them, but not anywhere near like I am other peptides at all. Yeah. Because I guess for multiple reasons, but one is because most of the people that I coach and deal with are not really... Right. looking for some of that.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #8 Featuring Dr. Elizabeth Yurth MD, ABAARM, FAARM, FAARFM! GLP-1 Benefits, Misconceptions and their Future, Comprehensive Hormonal Testing, Women and Testosterone Importance, The Evolution of Peptides and MORE!

Episode #8 Featuring Dr. Elizabeth Yurth MD, ABAARM, FAARM, FAARFM! GLP-1 Benefits, Misconceptions and their Future, Comprehensive Hormonal Testing, Women and Testosterone Importance, The Evolution of Peptides and MORE!
Right. I've got a few questions to get into. The first question, so let's just use an example. Let's say that your normal injectable dose is 150 milligrams a week. What does that equate to for you to take this pill daily?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #8 Featuring Dr. Elizabeth Yurth MD, ABAARM, FAARM, FAARFM! GLP-1 Benefits, Misconceptions and their Future, Comprehensive Hormonal Testing, Women and Testosterone Importance, The Evolution of Peptides and MORE!
Okay, okay, okay. And then, so let's say somebody like me That's been on TRT now for roughly about 10 years because I started like in my early 30s, like an idiot doing it myself. But that's beside the point. Obviously, my LH and FSH is bottomed out. Now, let's say that I switch over. Would those numbers come up or would they stay just like they are?

Episode #8 Featuring Dr. Elizabeth Yurth MD, ABAARM, FAARM, FAARFM! GLP-1 Benefits, Misconceptions and their Future, Comprehensive Hormonal Testing, Women and Testosterone Importance, The Evolution of Peptides and MORE!
Yes. It's like I get up and... everything's in my kitchen in the cupboard there. And I, it's like, I got to shut the window and dah, dah, dah, dah. And like this morning I bled a little bit and it got on the floor, just stupid, you know, whatever. And my wife's like, what's that on the floor? And I'm just looking at her like, fuck, I don't know. You know?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #8 Featuring Dr. Elizabeth Yurth MD, ABAARM, FAARM, FAARFM! GLP-1 Benefits, Misconceptions and their Future, Comprehensive Hormonal Testing, Women and Testosterone Importance, The Evolution of Peptides and MORE!
And then I realized, yeah, here's another question for you about that. So, um, I know that most people don't really have estrogen trouble on TRT, but like for me, if I go over 200 milligrams a test, I start to get estrogen conversion. How's the estrogen conversion on this? Would it be similar or is that- Seems to be much less.

I love that. You know, I have 30 to 35 affiliate codes, literally, because every single podcast I go on, everybody I talk to, they want to give me a code. And you know how many I use? I have one partnership that's an actual partnership with Timeline Nutrition. I make that no secret because I...

Episode #15 Featuring Cynthia Thurlow! THE ULTIMATE WELLNESS GUIDE! The role of muscle in aging and health, hormonal influences on physical activity, intermittent fasting, misconceptions on muscle gain for women, the importance of protein and more!
Yeah. I don't do that, you know, because I'm nothing special, but I don't have to do that. But I did that because of... in my mind, I said, I've been doing supplements for 20 years and I've never seen anything like this, what it's addressing. I guess the point is, is like you said, when you start flashing around so many different things, and it's not that I don't, I love these products.

I absolutely love a lot of the affiliate codes I had, but if I'm representing 30 different things and having a hundred different sponsors on, and then one of them goes bad or whatever, I mean, why does that look on you and I? People come to us for trust, you know? And so that's why you don't hear me even really having podcast ads yet.

I'm starting to sell them now, but I'm so picky and it's like my agent, it's hard to work with me because I'm like, no, no, no. And they're like, well, I don't like you. I have to believe in it, right? So I love that you're like that and vet that because sometimes when you say no, you kind of, yes, I used to feel like, man, I shouldn't be doing that because it's a blessed opportunity.

Absolutely. And that's one of the things that I talk about quite a bit is how important muscle is long-term and how vital it is for you to live longer and healthier and people, and it's not just women either, because a lot of women do get the fear they're going to get big, you know, lifting. I try to explain if you're able to put on And I coach a lot of bodybuilders.

I've coached a lot of steroid users. And I'm telling you, even guys that are on a ton, if you're able to hold and keep and add two to three pounds of muscle in a year, you have really, really done something special. Like it is not easy to get that, hold it and keep it. Now, you and I both know the more muscle you gain, the more fat you lose.

Explaining to them about how important muscle gain is, what are some of the things that you try to do, especially for women that are in menopause or maybe have never lifted or have lost their desire to lift?

Okay. So it's time to slightly nerd out a little bit. So like for dudes, a lot, not all dudes, but a lot of guys, when you like meet somebody and you start finding, oh, we talk about sports and it's like, holy shit, we start going back and forth. And it's like, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Episode #15 Featuring Cynthia Thurlow! THE ULTIMATE WELLNESS GUIDE! The role of muscle in aging and health, hormonal influences on physical activity, intermittent fasting, misconceptions on muscle gain for women, the importance of protein and more!
So that's what I'm gonna do with you on nutrition right now, because you and I have so many things that we see the exact same. And I want to go back and forth on some concepts, but really, really quickly. The fact that you brought up that you address and look at hormones before anything else right automatically shows credibility because so many people don't even bother to go there or look at that.

Episode #15 Featuring Cynthia Thurlow! THE ULTIMATE WELLNESS GUIDE! The role of muscle in aging and health, hormonal influences on physical activity, intermittent fasting, misconceptions on muscle gain for women, the importance of protein and more!
I would put like 75% of the people don't do that or address that when they're trying to find a problem. And it's always... trying to look at something diet related and fix something first without, you could fix a diet, but if the hormones are off, it's not going to matter, right? So what you said about testosterone in women, perfect.

Another one I just wanted to point out, which I'm sure that you do is progesterone is a big problem.

Episode #15 Featuring Cynthia Thurlow! THE ULTIMATE WELLNESS GUIDE! The role of muscle in aging and health, hormonal influences on physical activity, intermittent fasting, misconceptions on muscle gain for women, the importance of protein and more!
Huge, huge one. One of the classes I'm in with Dr. Elizabeth Ureth, we did a big deep dive on progesterone and I'm versed on it, but I realized, man, you don't know anything. And I've just been like divulged into that now. So- But the fact that you brought that up shows so much credibility right off the jump. And thank you for that. Now let's talk diet stuff. So. I am.

Episode #15 Featuring Cynthia Thurlow! THE ULTIMATE WELLNESS GUIDE! The role of muscle in aging and health, hormonal influences on physical activity, intermittent fasting, misconceptions on muscle gain for women, the importance of protein and more!
So I've never made it a big secret. Like I was a fashion model and I've coached all these athletes. I've been with bodybuilders. I've had an eating disorder since I was like 11 years old. Okay. Just like a body image issue, all of the above. I'm a nutritionist and I still struggle. So everything you talked about, I stare at the scale. I was on this...

Episode #15 Featuring Cynthia Thurlow! THE ULTIMATE WELLNESS GUIDE! The role of muscle in aging and health, hormonal influences on physical activity, intermittent fasting, misconceptions on muscle gain for women, the importance of protein and more!
I teach people the importance of healthy fats that I was eating a low fat diet every day. So what happens is, one, when you starve yourself, your body latches onto calories, right? Because it's in starvation mode. So you're actually not losing weight. You're ruining your metabolism. Two, you brought up about the sleep.

Well, then you're going to wake up retaining water, for example, high cortisol. So you'll like, I have a lumen. I'm a big data guy, right? So I'll breathe in that in the mornings. I don't sleep enough or I go to bed too late. I'm burning way more carbs than fat when I wake up. And that's not good, right? You want to be waking up in a fat burning stage.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #15 Featuring Cynthia Thurlow! THE ULTIMATE WELLNESS GUIDE! The role of muscle in aging and health, hormonal influences on physical activity, intermittent fasting, misconceptions on muscle gain for women, the importance of protein and more!
So for instance, I was, I do, I train like three hours a day and I do 90 minutes of cardio five days a week. And then all my strength, and I'm burning like... Between sedentary and normal, I'm burning like 4,200 calories a day. I was eating like 1,600 calories a day. So you can imagine. So I one day finally went to my wife right around the time I told you everything clicked for me.

And I said, hey, we're changing everything. And she's just looking at me like, thank God. She's been dealing with me for a decade, eating like this finicky little woman that's scared to gain weight. So I upped my calories 1,000. And I took my fat content from only peanut butter now to over 100 grams of fat a day. grass-fed butter every day, SCT oil, like everything you would think.

I have not been this cut up, nor shredded, nor cognitively reticent since I was in my 20s. And I haven't been this shredded since I was actually taking PDs, like seriously. And I'm 43. So my point is, is that you don't need to take shit if you got a good diet and you're working out hard. Those other things help that everybody's thinking about. So I guess for you...

I would like to discuss your view on carbohydrates, your view on like implementing healthy fats and the notion that like, because I can prove on blood work too, that how good saturated fats and fats are on your LP little a, your ApoB, like the cholesterol that really matters. What are your thoughts on all of that? Like those myths and those things that get stereotyped or put out there.

Episode #15 Featuring Cynthia Thurlow! THE ULTIMATE WELLNESS GUIDE! The role of muscle in aging and health, hormonal influences on physical activity, intermittent fasting, misconceptions on muscle gain for women, the importance of protein and more!

The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #15 Featuring Cynthia Thurlow! THE ULTIMATE WELLNESS GUIDE! The role of muscle in aging and health, hormonal influences on physical activity, intermittent fasting, misconceptions on muscle gain for women, the importance of protein and more!
Absolutely. And like you said, you understand your certain tolerances to animal fats, to meats. And everybody's got to understand that just because something may work for one, it doesn't work for the other. There's a lot of things that, yes, they're accurate if you look at them, but everybody's different. We're made up differently.

you know sometimes we are at a stage where we might have a condition or an allergic i mean there's a million things that are that are out there i'm a big proponent of protein as you are because the way i train and everything and how much i'm burning i'm at like 275 gram mark um i weigh about 185 but that's different because i'm like you know the way i'm training

Episode #15 Featuring Cynthia Thurlow! THE ULTIMATE WELLNESS GUIDE! The role of muscle in aging and health, hormonal influences on physical activity, intermittent fasting, misconceptions on muscle gain for women, the importance of protein and more!
One of the things that I've kind of struggled with is people that say, oh, it's so hard to get that amount of protein. But then I can I always come back with this fundamental breakdown of one meal. And I'm like, look how much proteins in this. Like, I understand that everybody's going to do 12 ounces of salmon like I do. But I do that. It's like 70 grams of protein like this.

You brought up chicken, eight ounces of chicken. You're at 52 to 55, depending on what kind of cut you have or whatever. But it's not as difficult, I think, as people maybe think it is if you look at it and break it down. Now, some people just can't eat that much. It fills you up too fast. You got to space it out a little bit. But I'm with you 100% on all of that.

I literally don't travel without, I will only travel where we have our own kitchen and literally before we go check into our Airbnb or whatever, we go right to Whole Foods and stock up what I can. I do my best. It's hard when you're traveling and working, but I tell you what, I do my damnedest to stay as on point as I can.

I have everything measured out and brought and weighed out with me that I can. I'm one of those people, but not everybody can do that. Let me ask you this. This is kind of an obvious thing, but I think that one of the things I've noticed with the far more fat intake, I am far more less inclined to ever be

desiring any kinds of foods that I shouldn't be wanting throughout the day or thinking about being hungry and the way that I'm locked in, even when I'm tired, as opposed to I was snacking on vegetables all day long, literally like 13 to 14 servings of vegetables a day, just throughout the day. And every 30 minutes I'm up hungry, walking around, like can't stay focused.

Episode #15 Featuring Cynthia Thurlow! THE ULTIMATE WELLNESS GUIDE! The role of muscle in aging and health, hormonal influences on physical activity, intermittent fasting, misconceptions on muscle gain for women, the importance of protein and more!
So the other benefits of the fats, like in general, just mentally on top of it.

Episode #15 Featuring Cynthia Thurlow! THE ULTIMATE WELLNESS GUIDE! The role of muscle in aging and health, hormonal influences on physical activity, intermittent fasting, misconceptions on muscle gain for women, the importance of protein and more!
But what you said, and this is funny. So I could eat a piece, like I said, the big piece of salmon, same amount of fat as I eat. I'm eating like a half a pound a day of either like venison or bison or elk, really. Same amount of fat, you know, pretty same amount of calories. Even sometimes the salmon will be more than certain cuts.

Yes, 100%. I want to get to a couple of things because I know we're getting short on time for you. So there's two things that I would like to incorporate into one here. So I was at Eudaimonia this year and Andrew Huberman had listed his top five important supplements.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #15 Featuring Cynthia Thurlow! THE ULTIMATE WELLNESS GUIDE! The role of muscle in aging and health, hormonal influences on physical activity, intermittent fasting, misconceptions on muscle gain for women, the importance of protein and more!
And then a couple other people, and this was when I got turned on to Timeline, especially with urolithin A, had urolithin A listed as their dark horse for their like ones that you should be taking every day. And that's when I really started to study it and then approach them, you know, and start working with them.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #15 Featuring Cynthia Thurlow! THE ULTIMATE WELLNESS GUIDE! The role of muscle in aging and health, hormonal influences on physical activity, intermittent fasting, misconceptions on muscle gain for women, the importance of protein and more!
So let's talk about creatine and urolithin A thoughts because I absolutely, those are like my two biggest staples every single day. I've got my 70 year old mom on creatine. I've got my wife on urolithin A and creatine. I'm on them. I got my kids on them. I've got teenagers that are friends of mine on creatine. Let's talk about both of those. Let's start with creatine.

You put a post up that I laughed because I was like, she's like my clone on this thing we have here. Let's talk about... The obvious myths, water retention, harm on the kidneys. I'm going to get so big and gain all of this weight. Can we just talk about why those are like, and not get angry about it, but because it's annoying, just, just tell people why that's not true.

Episode #15 Featuring Cynthia Thurlow! THE ULTIMATE WELLNESS GUIDE! The role of muscle in aging and health, hormonal influences on physical activity, intermittent fasting, misconceptions on muscle gain for women, the importance of protein and more!
Cause I've known, you know, it's gotten more popular and, I, what do you think? I'd say in the past, like three to four years, it's especially gotten more popular, like biohacking community or just more prevalently used or like more study or accentuation has been put on it.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #15 Featuring Cynthia Thurlow! THE ULTIMATE WELLNESS GUIDE! The role of muscle in aging and health, hormonal influences on physical activity, intermittent fasting, misconceptions on muscle gain for women, the importance of protein and more!
What's funny is when, when I was always talking about it, it was so cheap and it was like the cheapest thing in the world to buy. And now the price, it's not expensive, but it's certainly gone up now, the more popular it's gotten and been taken advantage of. So the, the urolithinase side of things now, you know, I'll keep it very short. I want your opinion on it.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #15 Featuring Cynthia Thurlow! THE ULTIMATE WELLNESS GUIDE! The role of muscle in aging and health, hormonal influences on physical activity, intermittent fasting, misconceptions on muscle gain for women, the importance of protein and more!
But just so people understand, it's stimulating mitophagy. So when, especially as we age, the mitochondria is the powerhouse of our cells and these start to degrade and they will basically either be damaged or destroyed as we get older. And so in short, urolithin A is stimulating that repair, which is of course then slowing down the aging process. It's obviously giving us more energy.

So trust me when I tell you, I know if anything helps me or hinders me. And even on my bad days, it's helping me. I'm not saying it's shaving a minute off my mile time, but I can certainly tell the difference.

And I can tell it, I would tell you more energy. And then the cream side, I can definitely tell. My wife keeps asking, can you get some more? Can you get some more? I'm like, shit, man, I can't buy everything we try. But I guess the point is, is that is one of the, to me, beyond the fact that it's so well studied, one of the more innovative and like,

Yeah, totally. Authenticity is one of the... And I haven't had the chance to meet you personally, but I am very good at picking out when I watch people and seeing who is probably a lot more authentic than others.

And so I believe that that does help convey a strong message when you have that kind of moral code, so to speak, or that belief in yourself on being tight-knit at home. And the authenticity, when you see somebody deliver a message where they're passionate about it, We all have to work for money.

I hate that when people act like, well, you have to make money, but you can tell when it's not money driven, it's more passion driven. And so I see that and I appreciate that from people like yourself. That's what I've tried to model myself after as well. It just goes a long way to help to deliver your message properly. It's going to get to more people what you're trying to get out there. And so-

So one of the things that I know that really took off for you was you had like a viral discussion on the intermittent fasting. Let's talk about that. What happened? Like what made that so big and pop so much for you? What was it that you had? Something had to have happened to make that kick.

What else that you said that I love now I'm highly spiritual. I understand some people are not, and that's, I don't push that on anybody, but what I will tell you is this. And I firmly believe this.

Episode #21: Dylan Gemelli gives a short and sweet explanation of the well known peptide Ipamorelin
Now, I quickly want to go over some of the benefits that have been seen on research that's been conducted. Just a few. One, enhanced growth hormone levels. There's been a show of increased lean muscle mass, improved recovery and repair, body fat reduction, as well as anti-aging benefits.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #21: Dylan Gemelli gives a short and sweet explanation of the well known peptide Ipamorelin
Now, dosing-wise, and these are typical studies that have been conducted, a typical dose is going to range from 250 to 300 micrograms per injection. These are subcutaneous injections, and generally it's two to three times a day. I'm more on the side of two times a day, but some research has shown that three times a day can be optimal.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #21: Dylan Gemelli gives a short and sweet explanation of the well known peptide Ipamorelin
Hey everyone, Dylan Gemelli here today to discuss ipamorelin. So I want to give you a quick breakdown and understanding of what it is, what it does, and how it works all through research that's been conducted. So in short, ipamorelin is a selective growth hormone secretagogue. You'll see it marked GHS.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #21: Dylan Gemelli gives a short and sweet explanation of the well known peptide Ipamorelin
30 minutes to an hour fasted before meals is the best to optimize your growth hormone release, and the time and duration of use is generally shown to be quite efficient and safe at the 8 to 12 week mark and you're going to then kind of take a break or go away from it for a while. For synergistic wise, Ipermorelin is combined with growth hormone releasing hormones like CJC25.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #21: Dylan Gemelli gives a short and sweet explanation of the well known peptide Ipamorelin
You'll often see them group and paired together. This is very common. The reason for this is that it's going to enhance your pulsatile growth hormone release. Now in terms of side effects, It's ipamorelin is well known and regarded for its very, very, very favorable safety profile with low side effects. There are some potential side effects that have occurred through research.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #21: Dylan Gemelli gives a short and sweet explanation of the well known peptide Ipamorelin
Injection site reactions, rare redness or discomfort around your injection site. possible headaches and nausea. These are all very, very rare. And this normally, when it has been seen, it's been right on the onset of use. It's nothing prolonged or long-term. So that is ipamorelin in a nutshell. It's very highly regarded.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #21: Dylan Gemelli gives a short and sweet explanation of the well known peptide Ipamorelin
It's one of the most studied peptides, most known and most researched out there. So ipamorelin in short, enjoy.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #21: Dylan Gemelli gives a short and sweet explanation of the well known peptide Ipamorelin
That is a ghrelin memetic, and it is known for its specificity in stimulating growth hormone release without significantly affecting other hormones.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #21: Dylan Gemelli gives a short and sweet explanation of the well known peptide Ipamorelin
have studies that date back to 1998 titling it the first growth hormone secretagogue so if you want to look that up just type in first growth growth hormone secretagogue and you will find this study now ipamorelin is a penta peptide so that means it consists of five amino acids and it is very very popular for its efficacy as well as its safety profile
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #21: Dylan Gemelli gives a short and sweet explanation of the well known peptide Ipamorelin
Now, I want to quickly look and discuss at the mechanisms of action. So, ipomerelin works by mimicking the action of ghrelin. Ghrelin is our hunger hormone. So, how does that work? It binds to the ghrelin receptor in the pituitary gland.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #21: Dylan Gemelli gives a short and sweet explanation of the well known peptide Ipamorelin
Now, this interaction is going to specifically stimulate the release of growth hormone from the somatrophs in the pituitary gland in a pulsatile manner, and that's going to be very similar to our body's natural growth hormone secretion rhythm. Now, unlike other growth hormone secretagogues, Ipermorella's action is a lot more targeted. So what does that mean?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #21: Dylan Gemelli gives a short and sweet explanation of the well known peptide Ipamorelin
That means you're going to have fewer and see and observe through research fewer side effects. It does not significantly increase cortisol, nor prolactin, nor acetylcholine, nor aldosterone levels. So it makes it generally speaking and regarded as one of the safer peptides for promoting growth hormone release.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode 18: Dylan Gemelli gives a full breakdown of the facts of the peptide Sermorelin!
Now it's action encourages a feedback regulated release of growth hormone, which then can adapt to our body's needs without overriding our natural hormonal balance. All right. So let's talk about some of the benefits and why it's used. Well, First, obviously, it's going to stimulate natural growth hormone production, and that's going to support growth, cell repair, as well as metabolism.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode 18: Dylan Gemelli gives a full breakdown of the facts of the peptide Sermorelin!
And we've got improved muscle mass and strength. Now, this is going to be for the bodybuilders, the fitness people, and really anybody in general, because one thing I want to stress is the importance of muscle and keeping muscle long term and always aiming to build lean muscle. Doesn't mean you have to be a bodybuilder. Doesn't mean you have to put on 10, 15, 20 pounds muscle.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode 18: Dylan Gemelli gives a full breakdown of the facts of the peptide Sermorelin!
But men and women alike, we will face sarcopenia as we get older and our muscles will degrade. And that can lead to a slew of problems on a shortened lifespan. So we want to make sure that we're keeping muscle mass at a decent amount and strength as well. And Sermorellin offers both of that. It also offers fat loss. So you're going to see some reduction of body fat through improved metabolism.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode 18: Dylan Gemelli gives a full breakdown of the facts of the peptide Sermorelin!
Welcome back, everybody. I am Dylan Gemelli, and today's topic that we are going to focus on is Cermorelin. As you know, I like to cover these in detail, but I like to keep it short and simplistic, yet still get the science behind it so you do gain a good grasp and understanding of what these compounds are all about. So let's get into it. Cermorelin is a synthetic peptide analog.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode 18: Dylan Gemelli gives a full breakdown of the facts of the peptide Sermorelin!
And then we've got an enhanced recovery. And we all need that. So that's going to accelerate recovery from injuries, physical exertion. And that, how does it do it? Well, cell regeneration promotion. And I love that. And I can get into all that later. Improved sleep quality. Now, growth hormone release patterns are closely tied to our sleep cycles.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode 18: Dylan Gemelli gives a full breakdown of the facts of the peptide Sermorelin!
And sermorelin may improve sleep quality as well as restorative sleep. And then there's anti-aging benefits, which we all want as well. So when you increase your growth hormone levels, that's associated with improved skin elasticity, improved bone density. and overall vitality.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode 18: Dylan Gemelli gives a full breakdown of the facts of the peptide Sermorelin!
So sermorelin is particularly appealing for anti-aging therapy and people that are looking to really enhance their physique and recovery capabilities in a more regulated type of manner. All right, so then poses the question, how do we use it? Well, typical doses range anywhere from 100 to 500 micrograms per day. That's a subcutaneous injection, and you're going to want to take that before bedtime.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode 18: Dylan Gemelli gives a full breakdown of the facts of the peptide Sermorelin!
Now, you want to do that because it's going to mimic our body's natural growth hormone peak during the early sleep phages. Now, doses can vary based on individual goals and responses that we have. So treatments of sermorelin often can be several months because we want to be able to observe significant benefits they're going to accumulate over time.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode 18: Dylan Gemelli gives a full breakdown of the facts of the peptide Sermorelin!
Now, one of the things that people look at with peptides a lot is what do they work well with? A lot of people like to take multiple. So let's talk about some synergy. What are some of the ones that we look at that are going to be best utilized with sermorelin? Ipermorelin is the first one that we're looking at. And They have really synergistic properties.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode 18: Dylan Gemelli gives a full breakdown of the facts of the peptide Sermorelin!
And I've seen that through research as well as real-world application. And that's proven to help slow down the aging process, increase muscle mass, decrease fat mass, reduce inflammation, and heal the gut. Now, look. All problems that we have, diseases alike, they normally start in our cells, okay? Whether it's cell membrane or mitochondrial damage. But then it's the gut.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode 18: Dylan Gemelli gives a full breakdown of the facts of the peptide Sermorelin!
And you'll see this talked about more often because it's more understood now. It's one or the other where we're having problems. And a lot of health problems... They come from problems in our gut. All right. And so to have a combo like this that can help to fix that issue is a big deal. So that's Sermorelin and Ipamorelin. Then we've got Sermorelin and CJC-1295.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode 18: Dylan Gemelli gives a full breakdown of the facts of the peptide Sermorelin!
And these work through similar mechanisms to boost growth hormone production in the body. Now, Here's the catch. They have slightly different effects and durations of action. Cermorellin has a shorter half-life and typically requires daily administration. Now there's CJC 1295 with or without DAC, but if we're going for the longer version of CJC 1295, there's a longer lasting effect.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode 18: Dylan Gemelli gives a full breakdown of the facts of the peptide Sermorelin!
And that's because it has a special covalent binding. Now this difference is nice because it allows for potentially more flexible dosing schedules when they're used in combination. And then lastly, let's talk about side effects. Side effects are actually quite light with Cermorell.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode 18: Dylan Gemelli gives a full breakdown of the facts of the peptide Sermorelin!
of GHRH, which is growth hormone-releasing hormone. Now, it is designed to increase our body's growth hormone production. Here's the difference. Unlike taking direct growth hormone supplementation, sermorelin stimulates the pituitary gland to then produce the growth hormone naturally. So this is going to offer a more physiologically balanced approach to enhancing our growth hormone levels.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode 18: Dylan Gemelli gives a full breakdown of the facts of the peptide Sermorelin!
And a lot of these are just like variable between any peptide, for example, in injection site reaction that can occur with any injection whatsoever. You might get some discomfort or redness or swelling. Some people can get a little bit of mild headache after they use it. That's depending on the individual and maybe they're dosing too high.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode 18: Dylan Gemelli gives a full breakdown of the facts of the peptide Sermorelin!
Dizziness rarely happens, but I have seen a few reported instances of this post-injection lightheadedness. And that can happen with a lot of different things. hyperactivity was one that I've seen, and that's an increase in energy levels or hyperactivity.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode 18: Dylan Gemelli gives a full breakdown of the facts of the peptide Sermorelin!
You're going to see that more along the lines of younger users, but they're really mild and more transient because of the non-invasive approach to boosting growth hormone levels. And it's considered a lot safer than direct growth hormone supplementation. But with anything you're using, you should always have somebody wiser than you looking over you, whether it's a naturopathic doctor or
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode 18: Dylan Gemelli gives a full breakdown of the facts of the peptide Sermorelin!
You know, some people online that are quite smart and educated on this. Somebody should be helping you out and watching over you. I even ask for help at times through some of my mentors on questions. I mean, there's no shame in doing that. We all should be doing it. So just make sure you're educated on it. You know what you're using inside and out.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode 18: Dylan Gemelli gives a full breakdown of the facts of the peptide Sermorelin!
And just be safe and smart with whatever it is you decide to use. So that is Sir Morell and everybody. Hope that was beneficial and educational. Stay tuned for plenty more to come. Dylan Gemelli signing off.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode 18: Dylan Gemelli gives a full breakdown of the facts of the peptide Sermorelin!
So how exactly does it work? Well, it works by mimicking the effects of GHRH, which is the endogenous hormone that's responsible for signaling our pituitary gland to then release growth hormone. So it's going to bind to our growth hormone, releasing hormone receptors on the pituitary gland cells. From there, it's then going to trigger the release of growth hormone into the bloodstream.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode 18: Dylan Gemelli gives a full breakdown of the facts of the peptide Sermorelin!
So what I love about this is this mechanism really supports our body's natural growth hormone rhythms. So why is that important? Well, it reduces the risks associated with exogenous growth hormone injections, not to mention it's a lot cheaper and safer.

So for you, because once again, the rhetoric is that you would want five grams a day up to about 180 pounds and that you could literally go to 10 grams over that, which I find to be nonsensical personally. Yeah. With the HCL in terms of women to man dosing, what would you recommend then for each men and women?

Episode #4: Featuring JJ Virgin! Understanding Muscle Gain and Body Composition, Debunking the controversy with GLP-1's, Exposing Health Myths, Deep dives into creatine, Peitdes, Biohacking AND MORE!
So let me just explain something to people, then me and you can get a good laugh at this. So for instance, before right now, I just had 12 ounces of sea bass before we started. I'm already 70 grams of protein. There were 65, 70. And then when I'm done, I'm going to have half a pound of bison. That's another 60 or 70. So I'm at 140 in two meals.

I just, I am at a loss sometimes. And, you know, when you said that people say, how am I going to get my protein? I think they just like to say that and don't look at numbers. And, I mean, you could just do 10 egg whites. You take 10 times 3.5. I mean, you're already 35 grams of protein and 10 egg whites is not. It is not hard.

Episode #4: Featuring JJ Virgin! Understanding Muscle Gain and Body Composition, Debunking the controversy with GLP-1's, Exposing Health Myths, Deep dives into creatine, Peitdes, Biohacking AND MORE!
Okay, so good. Let's talk about that protein intake. So I am... on the side of, and if you're, you know, everybody's different in terms of what they need based on weight and their activity, but I am on the side of trying to build muscle. Like if you're really trying to build muscle, more in that 1.5 range.

I agree. I've been doing some really deep studies like, well, with CGMs and then also I've done breath analysis to see how my body's responding to things and changing things up. And I've battled eating issues a lot of my life and I've just finally snapped out of it. And What I'm finding is for me personally, I'm kind of like almost like a 45, 40, 15, where it's like 45 protein, 40 fat, 15 carbs.

80 to 100 fats depending on the day and then my carbs are maybe 100 to 150 but i'm thriving on it i haven't been cut up since i was like using performance enhancers you know which i haven't done forever but i am that cut up now just from the diet switch alone it's it's amazing but you have to kind of learn your body but the protein to me is the backbone and the key it always has been

No, no, you don't. Absolutely. You have to learn how to be tricky and make things good, which you certainly can. It's not difficult if you just take the time and try and learn. It's really not. You know what I do, honestly, is like when I cook my fish, my salmon or sea bass is what I eat. I I put a little bit of almond butter on there and melt it on there when I eat it.

But the mushrooms, you know, it's funny, the stuff I thrive on now, I wouldn't touch when I was a kid. I wouldn't eat fish. I wouldn't eat peanut butter and I wouldn't eat mushrooms. And now I can't go a day without any of those. Literally. It's weird when you get, I think it was textures and things like that. But so the sea bass, that sea bass is 30 bucks a pound, but I don't even care.

Oh, wow. OK, so I'm curious then when you're structuring diets for people and it's subjective to the individual, their age. I understand that. But do you are you more of a do you always like primary protein first is the most macronutrient of what they're getting? And how do you view carbohydrates? I'm just curious from another dietitian how you look at carbohydrates and how you implement them.

So, you know, I have watched quite a bit of your work and some of the things that you talk about, and it's kind of inspired me to look more at and focus more on women as they get older, their diets and everything.

Here's another question I have for you, because I have eaten oatmeal, like, and I'm talking, you know, the non-glyphosate, the best supposed best you can get.

I'm trying to get more away from it. Now, I don't look at it as a breakfast food, to be honest. It's more of a later evening food for me, honestly, when I eat it. A late evening food.

I'd say that's the weak point of my diet because I don't cheat. I don't eat out. I literally, when we go on vacation, we don't eat out. I don't eat out. I just don't. Everything's cooked. That's probably my one. Now, I put, once again, almond or walnut butter and protein powder in mine and once in a while an egg white. And if you cook the egg white in it, it lowers the glucose spike with it.

No, that's my argument. I always want to say, show me your blood. I'm a big blood panel person. That's kind of one of the things I do that people hire me to do is manage their blood profiles and their markers.

Yeah, it's just absolute insanity. So with the GLP-1s for you, well, one, I think we both agree that a lot of the dosing is way too high. I'm more on the side of, depending on the condition, but for a lot of people, the microdosing side is what I have found in studies and with people that I've coached and talked to to be the most effective in terms of side effects and dosing.

Yeah. And there's so many peptides out there that have this ability to do so many different things. I'm like a peptide obsessionist. Like I said, I was telling you earlier, I started studying them in 2010 before they were just research chemicals underground.

Episode #4: Featuring JJ Virgin! Understanding Muscle Gain and Body Composition, Debunking the controversy with GLP-1's, Exposing Health Myths, Deep dives into creatine, Peitdes, Biohacking AND MORE!
I was like, okay. So when I started, it was SARMs and peptides that I was known for in my videos. And with peptides, you can only buy about seven or eight. And it was basically GHRP-2, 6, melanotan, CJC-1295, and then MK-6, 7. That was it. That was it. Now there's thousands to pick from. So how do you feel about peptide use and where it's going?

A hundred percent. I don't think. that a lot of people understand what it takes to actually put on two, three, four pounds of muscle and keep it. That takes a lot. It really does. And I understand what you're talking about because there's a lot, my wife included, she's like a hundred pounds and we got into this whole thing of this fear of, will I get too big?

Episode #4: Featuring JJ Virgin! Understanding Muscle Gain and Body Composition, Debunking the controversy with GLP-1's, Exposing Health Myths, Deep dives into creatine, Peitdes, Biohacking AND MORE!
And I'm like, listen, you got to understand what it takes and also the type of lifting that you're doing, because like what you're bringing up, I think a lot of people don't understand the more lean muscle you get, the more fat you lose. And it's not the scale. It's how you look and your, you know, your body circumference and everything else.

Very inspiring. What I want to point out to people from everything that you just said, because you said it twice, and I really want to make this something that people listen to. So I'm going to bring it up again. When you said that you lost, but you won. Because in everything that we do, when you take an L on the surface, if you have the right attitude and you learn from that and use that,

Episode #1 with Miesha Tate! The ultimate rivalry with Rhonda Rousey, Becoming the UFC Women's Champion, Breaking the barrier for women in the UFC, The role Of God in her life, Overcoming adversity being a female wrestler and SO MUCH MORE!
to figure out a way that you actually won and then let that fuel you to move forward, that's when you start actually making progress. If you just keep win, win, win, win, win, you never really win in totality because you never learn how to really grow from that. And when you have the attitude after something bad happens and you let that let you grow, And you never actually lose.

Episode #1 with Miesha Tate! The ultimate rivalry with Rhonda Rousey, Becoming the UFC Women's Champion, Breaking the barrier for women in the UFC, The role Of God in her life, Overcoming adversity being a female wrestler and SO MUCH MORE!
That's how you not only help yourself, but inspire others. And what you just said, I've had the whole world in my hands in my 20s. And when I tell you I lost everything, I lost everything. Freedom, everything. And I had to start from scratch, like pure scratch. So I know what you're talking about. And when I can...

So thank you, not just for me, but for everybody and allowing me to help put out your message to try to inspire people that no matter what happens, there's always a way to use that and to learn from it. And there's a reason why those things happen. So I,

I love it. And, you know, everybody likes a comeback story and anybody can win well, but not everybody can handle a loss well. And I've seen a lot of people, you know, in team sports or in singles, you know, types of sports, boxing, fighting, they'll be undefeated, undefeated. One loss will break them in half and others will use that and they will remember it and learn about it

Episode #1 with Miesha Tate! The ultimate rivalry with Rhonda Rousey, Becoming the UFC Women's Champion, Breaking the barrier for women in the UFC, The role Of God in her life, Overcoming adversity being a female wrestler and SO MUCH MORE!
you know, what they can take from it and move forward. I always say that the best teachers oftentimes have made the most mistakes because they learn from it. And that's the key is using that. And then also remembering that, like, if they're in your position or somebody that's, you know, revered, watched, you're also... inspiring others.

Episode #1 with Miesha Tate! The ultimate rivalry with Rhonda Rousey, Becoming the UFC Women's Champion, Breaking the barrier for women in the UFC, The role Of God in her life, Overcoming adversity being a female wrestler and SO MUCH MORE!
And so taking that secondarily on, it should also fuel you because you should think even if you inspire one person, it's a big win, you know, because people need that. And so people that are in more of a spotlight or in front of people should remember that. And I don't think sometimes any of us know the types of effects that we have on people. So I love everything that you're saying.

Episode #1 with Miesha Tate! The ultimate rivalry with Rhonda Rousey, Becoming the UFC Women's Champion, Breaking the barrier for women in the UFC, The role Of God in her life, Overcoming adversity being a female wrestler and SO MUCH MORE!
Now, when you... What was it like for you when you won the title? I know what you went through losing it and how it affected you. What was it like when you won the title and then after you lost it and went to UFC, was it in your head like, I'm getting that title back? Like, I'm going to do whatever I got to do to get that title back. Was that your mindset?

Episode #1 with Miesha Tate! The ultimate rivalry with Rhonda Rousey, Becoming the UFC Women's Champion, Breaking the barrier for women in the UFC, The role Of God in her life, Overcoming adversity being a female wrestler and SO MUCH MORE!
I remember because I, I mean, we got every, we watched everything, every pay-per-view always had them. And I remember when she lost, it was like when I was a kid, because at that time, it just didn't seem like she was ever going to lose. And I, I remember wanting you to beat her so bad back then. And somebody beat her.

Episode #1 with Miesha Tate! The ultimate rivalry with Rhonda Rousey, Becoming the UFC Women's Champion, Breaking the barrier for women in the UFC, The role Of God in her life, Overcoming adversity being a female wrestler and SO MUCH MORE!
And it was like the Mike Tyson, Buster Douglas fight when I was a kid, where it was like, he just, he just, it was at the point where it was like, shit, nobody's going to beat her. And then when she just got the shit beat out of her in that fight, cause she did, I was like, wow. So then when you got that opportunity to fight Holly, I didn't know what was going to happen, you know?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #1 with Miesha Tate! The ultimate rivalry with Rhonda Rousey, Becoming the UFC Women's Champion, Breaking the barrier for women in the UFC, The role Of God in her life, Overcoming adversity being a female wrestler and SO MUCH MORE!
And so it was, it was because I watched it. I still remember watching it. It was awesome. What did that feel like when you won that title? And so I'm a big guy on when you reach a goal, it should only make you hungry for more. Of course, celebrate it, cheer it, but where do you go from there as a champion? What drives you after that to work harder, to hold that?

Anybody can win anything, but consistency, it's kind of like what I struggle with with clients with diet. You can lose weight and meet your goal, but then it's the consistency is the hard part. So Where did you go from there? What made you go, okay, now I got to defend this and hold on to this as long as I can?

That's amazing. I want to go back and ask a few things that we kind of got into a little bit at the Olympia. When you were in high school, do you feel like that the guys were giving you a hard time because they maybe felt threatened by you being on there?

I'm going to share something with you then, since we got all into that direction, because this is also something you and I didn't get to talk about. And that's why you saw me smiling the entire time you started talking about this. I've been raised Catholic my whole life, and I've always prayed, but not to the point of where you could say it's a proper relationship with God. You think it is. Right.

You'll see if you ever see, like I'll put something in my morning every day to try to help people, give them a word, something small, because hey, like you said, I'm not gonna push this on you either, but I'm certainly going to show you.

And like, once again, if you get one person that you're helping, because that's in the Bible, that's what you're supposed to attempt to do. And, you know, he says, if you go into a town and they don't like it, shake the dust off and move on. But at least try. And I think that if we try and get people back on that, or at least understanding, because there's these preconceived ideas.

Things that people misinterpret, they read, they don't understand metaphor, they read things literally and don't. Like I have Bibles here that break down. I will read a section and I will go down and then get the actual translation of what it means, highlight it, go back to it. I have them all tabbed out, everything.

And I think that if we get more people to just not push it, you don't push things on people, but at least push. gives some sort of indication on what they're missing, when that clicks and you find that, everything, everything opens up and changes. You stop being a slave to things or opinions or all of this bullshit that you can't take with you when you go.

The only thing you can really take with you is your relationship with God. And once you figure that out, of course I want nice shit. Who doesn't? Who doesn't want comfort? But it doesn't mean anything If you don't have that first, it just doesn't mean anything. It's worthless. And you understand that when you don't feel it, you know?

You know, but instead this time, because I've been praying for more trust because I keep, when something, everything's great, it's great. But when something's bad, you just, I don't get mad at God, but I start to do this, like, woe is me type of deal.

And because you get on such a high when something happens and you just kind of you know, and it grounded me and it gave me the time to sit and there was the reason why.

I think that the best characteristic that one can have is being themselves at all times and not conforming to what they think that others want saying what people want to hear as opposed to what they need to hear and And giving the true who you are.

Yes. Okay, cool. So what years was this? Because obviously, I believe at that time, it was probably very rare for a female to be doing any sort of wrestling.

I love that when somebody is willing and sure, you know, very sure of themselves to bet on themselves and confident. And especially if somebody tells you no, or you can't do this or whatever, and then you know, in your heart. I can do this. I'm going to show you I can do this. That's what separates somebody that's pretty good to be a star, in my view. So I love hearing that.

I understand that's not for everybody and I'm not pushing my spirituality on anyone. So do not take it that way whatsoever. And please, I implore you to listen to the story.

Last year, as an influencer, so to speak, I just don't like that term, but I got invited to speak at the Mr. Olympia, which to me was a culmination. I was up on stage with doctors and practitioners and then Dylan Gemelli, the YouTube guru or whatever the hell people called me, you know, and I just laugh because I'm no guru. I just, you know, I know what I know and I know what I don't know. And.

About a year prior to that was when I really started to put God first and I started to study the Bible, study the word and try to change my life and live it right. And things just kept falling into place, falling into place. Now, mind you, this whole time I'm struggling with my eating. Miserable, basically.

I had developed a fat phobia where I wouldn't eat fats, even though I was a nutritionist coaching people to eat fats. I was eating way less calories than I should be. I'm working out five days a week. I used to be six and seven. But as I got older, I realized like you just you have to stop. But 90 to 100 minutes of cardio, five days a week of steady state, another hour, hour and a half of lifting.

On paper, with your resting, burning over 4,000 calories a day and barely eating 1,600 to 1,700, and basically all of it was vegetables, oatmeal, yogurt, protein powder, and peanut butter. Barely any fats at all, just depriving myself of anything and everything I possibly could. So we've got this problem and me finding my way. So I get to speak at the Mr. Olympia, and I really held my own.

I really did. I first got invited there for that, but then the man that was running it, Dr. Michael Palmieri, who gave me my chance, he called me and he said, hey, I've got somebody I want you to meet. And I said, sweet. And it was Monica Brandt, former Miss Olympia. He said, talk to her. So I met her, talked to her. She invited me to co-host with her at the Mr. Olympia for her podcast.

I said, yeah, count me in. Let's do it. So I get there and she's being sponsored by a company called Stem Regen, who is one of, at the time I didn't know, but one of the biggest and most well-known companies in the biohacking sphere. I don't even know what the heck biohacking was at the time. And I met them and hit it off in a major way. They watched me speak, got to know them.

Well, anyway, I got home from Mr. Olympia on a Sunday, so pumped for what was going to come. I met all these people, wanted to collaborate with me, work with me. And I got COVID right when I got home. I was sick in bed. And I started to do this woe is me stuff. And then I finally, at that point, was like, there has to be a reason for this, God. And I'm just going to trust now. And you know what?

And I discovered biohacking and it all came crumbling down in a positive way that, wow, I finally figured out what I'm supposed to be doing finally. And it hit me like a ton of bricks. And this was in October and I made it.

This is what I feel like I'm being led by God and by the Holy Spirit to do. So that's where I am now at this time. And like I said, I'm not pushing that on anybody.

I always tell everybody, and excuse my language, that I've just been a get shit done guy. That no matter what, it's Dylan. People come to me when they need something figured out. And I've used that against people like my mom and my wife.

So let's go back in time a little bit. I was a only child. My mom and dad asked me when I was very small, I believe two or three years old, if I wanted a brother or sister. My mom said my response was, do you have to love them? She said, well, of course I do. I said, no. You can see the selfishness as a young kid. I wanted all the attention myself. I just didn't know any better.

Deceiving and misleading people is wrong, especially for the reasons people do it. If it's accidental, it's least forgivable. If people are just being misled themselves and pushing it out, then yeah, it's on you to do your due diligence and understand, but if it's not intentional, at least it's semi-forgivable.

And as a Christian and a Catholic, of course, we're supposed to forgive everybody, but it's a struggle for even me when people are blatantly trying to hurt others. And you only hope and you can pray for them that they'll stop and get on a better path. But the fact remains that that stuff does exist. Now, do some people believe things exist that don't? Sure, of course. I mean, that happens.

Spoiled to a degree. My mom was a teacher and my dad was an assessor. So if you're not familiar with an assessor, there's an appraiser and assessor for real estate. So my dad basically decides how much tax you pay on your house. That's what he did.

So she converted over to be a realtor. And there's just not a lot of money in teaching, especially back then. So anyway, I had a brilliant childhood. I was so blessed in such a variety of ways.

Now she was very, very, very, very, very rough when it came to school, which was a great thing. And my dad was very rough with math in particular on me. So I learned at a very early age. And so.

My mom, God bless her, I was from an Italian family, and the one thing I would say that they did let me get away with was eating whatever I want.

I never had a girlfriend at the time, and embarrassed to take my shirt off at the pool, super self-conscious, but still happy and never really let it bother me. But you hear people take shots, and then when you start to go to events like sporting events and things and people in the crowd making remarks, people making comments, it hurts as a kid.

And going into eighth grade, I had this very, very big growth spurt, 5'8 to 6'1, lost like 30 pounds over the summer playing tackle football. And I was always a top athlete, but always terrible, as you can imagine, on my endurance, my stamina, all of that. Terrible on all cardiovascular side of things. Super talented and gifted, but not gifted when it came to keeping up with everybody else.

And of course, that's going to hinder you. Well, everything changed at that point. The problem was, is that at that time, everybody started making these accusations. Oh, he's taking drugs. He's an anorexic. He's bulimic doing this. I didn't know what any of that stuff even was, but here's what happened. All of that started getting into my head.

And then I started to develop this fear of gaining the weight back. So I've got all these ideas and things that I could do now that would help me keep weight off. And I was not going to let it come back. So I developed an eating disorder. And if I gained a pound, I started to live in fear. First, it was I'm not going to eat anything. Then it became, well, I'm too hungry.

So it turned into a bulimia. And it got to the point where my parents obviously found out you're never going to hide that no matter what age, but especially as a kid. And it didn't go over quite well, as you can imagine. And my dad said to me, if you don't weigh 150 pounds by the time basketball comes around next year, you're not playing. So that essentially forced me to get my act together.

But this has been a lifelong battle and probably why I have gotten into the health sphere the way that I have. And I started reading nutrition labels at the age of 11, and it was toxic to me, and food became toxic and not a friend. At that time, I did get over it, and it was not an issue for several years, all through high school or anything like that.

So I just want to dig in. I've been a guest on several podcasts in the past few months, and I've told portions of my story, but I really want to let everybody know exactly who I am and what drives me and why I do what I do.

And I felt like I was letting myself and my dad down. And I ended up taking a year off of school and then going back and trying to play again. And I think I just, the thought of it was more than anything to me. It wasn't the desire. And once again, I got hurt. And once again, I said, forget it. So anyway, I didn't really know what to do at that point. I was lost and really no path in sight.

I hadn't really thought long enough term. My mom had always said, I want you to model. I want you to do this. You think, well, your mom's always going to tell you and think you're the best at this and look the best. For me, I was very masculine and I thought it was just a little too feminine for me, if I'm being honest.

I believe it was like Ashton Kutcher, Katie Holmes, all these people at the time that were popular that got noticed there.

And I performed and I ended up getting fourth place in this whole competition in my age group and signed a contract, went to Milan and started modeling. and thought that I was just living the dream.

And the weekends, the only part was you didn't go to the agency and you just partied and worked out if you were able to, if you could function. It got to the point where I couldn't keep up.

Because I was doing them, I started selling them. Now, I think most of you can deduce there's not real good longevity selling drugs. And guess what? Everybody gets caught.

You know, I hadn't had any offenses, worked out this great deal for me. But when you have a suspended sentence, if you screw up on the probation they put you on, they can take it and give you the original sentence. Well, I screwed up once. Slap on the wrist, maybe two weeks in jail. That's more than a slap on the wrist. Screwed up again. Hundred and some days in jail, more probation.

Cause I certainly have, but I, I, it's not something I do often. And, uh, I didn't know what to say and I never don't have anything to say. And anybody that knows me knows that.

I knew right then and there that I needed to start using my time in there, figuring out what I was going to do, how I was going to fix this. I didn't have a set plan when I got out of there, but I knew that I was going to make amends. So when I got out, I got sent to Maui. And of course, having two felonies, nobody's going to hire you.

and teaching and inspiring others by the things that we did wrong to help and prevent them from doing those and to show that everybody's human and we can all persevere and overcome if we have the right mindset and the right guidance.

And so anyway, after finding out you can talk about any of these things, obviously you can't sell them. And I wasn't ever going to go near that, but there was nothing wrong with what I was doing. So rapidly, nobody was really talking about it.

Very few people on there talking about it. And I, you know, I, had a pretty good personality for video. I mean, at the time, I go back and watch some of the stuff and I laugh and I'm embarrassed, but It resonated and it worked.

You still they were looking for anything and everything. So that's when I started to work on my Instagram. And that's when I started to build, build, build and start to look at different aspects aside from just steroids and PEDs and and SARMs, which I was known for.

Yeah, no, no. Honestly, I would say just in the past few years is when we really started talking about females taking it like more universally and it becoming more of a mainstream thing where it's like doctors and biohackers and people are talking about it now.

That's one of the things, but I was looking at the brain function and then, you know, what else is like the menopausal help, um, different aspects of menopause, whether it be, you know, sometimes with the emotional side effects, the cognitive function, and then, you know, this, the bone health with the definitely bone degradation starting at that point in time.

I mean, even before that, possibly as we age, but you know, that in menopause, it's really starting to hit. So, um, And even for teenagers, I mean, there's such a wide spectrum of good use here, but absolutely for females. Now, granted, the dosings may be a little different, but still, it's still something you should use firmly behind that.

of supplements that i would recommend that people use now i'm a i'm big on heart health like i said so i'm there with coq10 that i think that most people should be looking at or considering taking and i like to protect the liver and then we know magnesium is very important electrolytes in general need to be looked at and viewed and taken very seriously because when you throw those off your heart rhythm can go off and then there's a slew of other problems so then we've got those basics right your your vitamins that you should get a lot of from food

If you're eating properly, I don't like to depend on too many things for the nutrients that we need. Those are supplements for a reason, supplemental, but then, you know, peptides are going to fall right after that.

For me personally, we'll get into the nootropic side of things, but that's a little different when we're talking about health, because that's more like cognitive and sharp function, which I'll talk about, but there's, so there's so many multitudes of peptides and things that we have. So I'm just going to name a few.

Ipamorelin and CJC-1295 are good growth hormone-releasing peptides where you're not taking exogenous growth hormone, but they're releasing your growth hormone. Because we know HGH itself is quite expensive, and there's a lot more side effects that you've got to worry about.

Yep. That's what I was going to say, and that's the problem. Aside from the possibility of acromegaly and things like – and when I say that, your heart's growing or your facial feature's growing and things, and that's from misuse. But then there's a sodium-potassium ratio, so people will complain about, oh, I got this water retention. Well –

There's a thing called sodium-potassium ratio where in general, when you're having those problems, it means you're lacking potassium and eating way too much sodium. And the scale is 3,500 to 4,700 milligrams of potassium and no more than 2,300 milligrams of sodium. Well, you and I know this. Most people have way more sodium than that and like a fraction of the potassium.

And everybody thinks that you eat bananas for potassium, which couldn't be further from the truth. There's a million other options. And bananas are not even close to the best choice, by the way.

Yes, there you go. But okay, so let's look at some other ones. BPC-157 and TB-500 are your healing compounds. And those are the ones that get the most action right now and the most discussion and with good reason. on a different level of rapid healing. But there's others. So epitalon for sleep, which is amazing. MOTC for like cellular and mitochondrial repair and function.

So that's where the problem lies. Um, there are some very, very intelligent people that I revert to. Um, you know, we all have mentors and people we go to, there is like, I'm getting certifications. Um, I'm going to be going with the, uh, SSRP Institute, which is Dr. William seeds. That's going to be the next.

I mentioned Dr. Elizabeth Yerth to you prior. So she's right with Dr. Seeds. And so she's one that I discuss a lot of my questions. I go to her and I met her when I was speaking at the Mr. Olympia. She first told me we had a big, long and we're actually going to do it again because she's going to do a controversial NAD plus conversation with me. But

She was the one that got me onto the microdosing with the GLPs. And then about two weeks later, I went to Eudaimonia and listened to you confirm that for me. And so after you confirmed it and she said it, two people that I held in such a high regard, I spent... One thing you'll learn about me is when I want to go learn something, I'll do it relentlessly.

I'll stay up at all hours of the night, and I just put so many different studies into it. I tested it on some clients that wanted to use it, and I told them, look, we're going to do it this way. We're not going to do it your way. We're going to do it my way. And everything that I've seen confirms what you said, confirms what she said. the ability to not just degrade.

You're in that sunken face and the loss of sacrificing of the muscle, the complete and utter loss of appetite, which could go along with misuse and using too much. And I've seen not only people hold their weight in terms of their muscles, still lose fat in the process, but feel great and look great. And I have no reason to believe that there's, I haven't seen any blood work problems.

Okay, so you brought up some really good points. I always look at all of the numbers just to get a gauge. So when you go to the doctor and you get a metabolic panel or a cholesterol panel, whatever they want to call it, You're going to get some basic tests. You're going to get LDL, HDL, total cholesterol and triglycerides. Those are the four that you're guaranteed that you're going to get.

You might get a couple like different ratios and things, but those are the four you're going to get. Those are fine. I want that data, but that doesn't tell me anywhere near what I need to know. I need to get a comprehensive, some will call it like cardio IQ panel. It's just a comprehensive cholesterol panel is all it is.

I literally just had my checkup today, this morning virtually, because I have a doctor out of state who's the best in the United States that I go to, and I can explain my condition and why I go to him, but... He's in Connecticut, so I have to do a virtual. And literally, today was my checkup.

the majority of my specific time but apo b is going to be the one that gets a lot of the most look um it plays a really crucial role in your lipid metabolism and your cardiovascular health so let me i want to try to make this as easy as i can and not get too so people can understand so ApoB is just basically a component of lipoproteins.

And these are the particles that are going to carry fats like cholesterol and triglycerides in your bloodstream. So it's... It's really, it's essential for the recognition and binding of lipoproteins to your LDL receptors on the surface of your cells, and that allows them to deliver lipids into cells for energy or storage. So that's what it is. Now, elevated levels...

of apob are going to be associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease and what what generally is going to happen is that's going to contribute to the formation of plaque atherosclerosis essentially um and they're going to be elevated when you have like hypercholest hypercholesterolemia um hyperlipidemia things like this and you know some people

It can be caused by a multitude of things. Genetics play a role. Your diet plays a role. Your lack of exercise, you know, what you're doing plays a big role in that. There's some things that can certainly be helped and some things that you just kind of, you know, you got the bad cards in the deck. But you can certainly control a lot of this by your own actions.

Um, now the LP little a is a completely different story because you can't control that with your diet. You can't control that with your exercise. This is a genetic thing. Um, that's an inherited problem and it's, um, I would say it's a far less understood problem.

Nobody really tests for it, and one of the problems with it is that when you get this test, like, for instance, when I went in and I told them I wanted this test, they tell you that, oh, you're only going to test this once, you never test it again, and it is what it is. I just did not accept that.

No, and that couldn't be further from the truth. Just like they tell you you can't reverse plaque in your arteries, which I can tell you I have spoken with and seen firsthand that you most certainly can. And I've spoken with some of the most intellectual doctors in the world that will confirm that you most certainly can. So I don't buy when they tell you you can't. I don't take no for an answer.

and so basically um like i said the lp little a is completely different now you know this i know this a lot of people know this you go in there you have any sort of elevation or anything there the immediate thing has put you on a statin i don't care if you're like like this a skosh over the mark that's what they want now let's talk about a statin here in terms of what it will do

So, you take a statin with an LP little a, which is what they tried to tell me to do, that will increase your LP little a number, first of all. Second of all, if you go get a calcium score, it will increase your calcium score and the amount of gauged plaque. Now, it's hardening your soft plaque, which is a good thing, but it's still increasing the score.

And it's causing a slew of side effects, as we know. And if you really sift through the studies and analyze them and understand them, the rate of like cardiac occurrence is like 0.1% difference on what it'll actually do to help you. And I've seen far more people still have occurrences while taking it. Muscle like pain, constant, you know, liver problems, elevated ALT, AST, and other numbers.

Anyway, we got to talk and he said, I want to hire you. And he said, all of my, my workers, I have them go do a calcium score. He said, I'm sure you're fine. Just go do it. I said, okay, I'll do it. I went and did it. And my score came back.

And you know why? Because they're not checking any of these other tests. They go in and get a stress test that tells you nothing. Or they'll do, even an EKG is only measuring your heart rhythms. It's not telling you anything about anything else.

So you could go in with a perfect echocardiogram, a perfect EKG, all of this, and have issues and never know it if you don't go through this rigorous process of understanding. So when I found that I had the calcium score, I immediately started to dig and thought like, what the – like how? How? And then I started learning about the blood test, the comprehensive blood test.

And that's where you're getting into the yellow stage. And then over a hundred and over a hundred, you're in the red zone. And so I, Then I found that PCSK9 inhibitors were the only things that would possibly help this. They have about a 25% to 30%. ability to help you.

And my last score was 96. So I'm taking a clearly test in probably June because I have to go out of state to do it. And that's going to give you an accurate assessment of how much soft and hard plaque that I have in my arteries. And I'll see if there's been any regression since I started doing everything I'm doing. So for instance, pomegranate juice was one of the things that can reverse plaque.

Okay, so redox. Redox, and I'm going to read this because I don't want to speak out of turn. Redox oxidation, that's the heart of cellular energy production. So this involves the exchange of electrons between molecules influencing overall cell health and function. And so like, okay, for instance, what's the role of redox in aging and disease?

And right off the bat, we're looking at NAD plus and NADH. And these two are going to regulate metabolism, DNA repair, and cellular resilience. So when aging and redox decline, and this happens as we age, your NAD plus levels are dropping, right? And so that's going to be a cause of impairing your mitochondrial function. And so that's going to lead to oxidative stress.

Now, one thing I can tell you without looking at anything is when we were learning about oxidative stress is how bad it is. But you do need some. There needs to be a little bit of oxidative stress. It's when it starts to become too much that becomes a problem. But if you totally eliminate it, too, then there's also a problem. So chronic.

That's like with a lot of guys when they're doing steroid cycles, for example, and they get elevated estrogen, but then they take aromatase inhibitors and crush it. And then there's a big problem too. So there's a fine line, right? So you're right. It's with everything. Now here, redox imbalance and disease. Chronic redox dysregulation contributes to conditions like cardiovascular disease,

Neurodegeneration and diabetes. So there you have it. But we were discussing in here different tests that we could take to look at redox balance. And glutathione is a big one here because we were talking about that being a master antioxidant. And glutathione is another one, you know, and you could... You could go get glutathione injections. I'm big on glutathione and vitamin B12 injections.

If you're going to go do those things, some of those places, they put too much in their cocktails and they're throwing so many different things at you. But, you know, there are things that are good and glutathione would be one of them, but you can over antioxidant yourself too, like with anything else. And you don't want to do that either.

I'm hit and miss. That's what I want you to listen to when I talk to Dr. Urth about NAD because she's kind of gotten on that. I think it's important to be in balance, and I think it's obviously important if your NAD levels decline. Like we just said, you're going to run into problems.

So I got into bodybuilding forums and started studying supplements, testosterone boosters, and I had studied steroids because of baseball because I was a big sports fan. And so I got into that world more, but I was more on the side of trying to teach people to not use them and the side effects and coaching.

I'll touch on something you brought up earlier, though, with the peptides and the injections. You know, they are working feverishly right now on development. And I sat in at A4M on a conference on this, and they're really working on making more topicals, making them more efficient, making more capsules. You know how you said you use the BPC pills? I use...

a bpc tb 500 gel and i love it it is so nice and it it and it's so nice to not have to inject it's more effective than the pills i don't i i believe that i do firmly believe they're effective i've seen it i've used them but the gel to me is the most effective aside from we we know the shots the most effective but this is so close it really is interesting yeah which company is that

Um, there's, there's a few that do it underground. Um, pep, I mean, honestly, I know of all of these companies cause I, that's been my world for so long. So I can always make recommendations. Peptide pro is very, very good company. Um, I do a lot of work with the owner there because he's, they, they go an extra mile on what they do.

So a company found me and said, we want you to start doing YouTube videos, and we're going to push you to the moon. Nobody's talking about any of this stuff, and we want you to do it. And I had just gotten out of legal trouble. Right. So I said, well, I said, let me talk to my attorney and see if there's any legal trouble here. And there wasn't. Talk about whatever.

I agree. It's hard because I understand some people like to just look at the scale. I've been that way. I've had eating problems, body dysmorphia. But let me tell you something. It's very common knowledge and sense to understand the more muscle you build, the more fat you're dropping.

So the scale might not reflect it, but your pant size will, your DEXA scan will, and your quality of life and the way you feel and your blood work will.

Yeah, and having some tone and some muscle looks a hell of a lot better than just being thin and skinny fat or whatever you want to call it. It doesn't look good. I've looked at some videos I've done and the way I've looked when I've looked that way and I don't ever want to look like that again.

i kill myself to try to hold on to everything that i've got yes you know so and if i could add a pound or two a year i'd be overjoyed at this point like i just want to make sure i'm not losing exactly you know one of the problems i always run in with the steroid guys and the guys that i've coached that are like pro bodybuilders that are training mr olympia and things that guys that are running to run cycles are just the bros is that they

Most more often than not, not only are you going to lose a lot of what you gained, but then you're just totally degrading your health, whether it's, you know, your natural testosterone production all the way to your liver, kidneys, prostate, all of that. The risk is never worth the reward. And you're not you may gain 15 pounds, but a lot of it's water weight or bad weight or sloppy weight.

And you're going to lose it as soon as you come off. More often than not, you're going to lose the majority of that just based on you not being able to physiologically handle that kind of weight or keep it on because it was being used by something exogenous that you're taking. So there's, you know...

Just don't be a part of selling stuff. Obviously, I'm not going to do that. So I studied my butt off. And when I tell you I studied my butt off, I was up until 2 and 3 in the morning on the computer every night just reading, reading. Well, in the midst of all of this, I fell into this world of peptides and SARMs that no one had tapped into or knew about. And I used SARMs.

And after using them, I thought I found the Holy Grail, right? Because it's like, wow, these have, they're not like steroids. They're not going to cause you all this suppression, all of these side effects. So I just went full bore at them. Peptides at the time were not popular in the bodybuilding world because they didn't put on a bunch of size. They didn't do all of these crazy things.

Oh, my goodness. Well, when you got onto an underground peptide site, there was roughly seven or eight you could buy. And it was like ipamorelin, CJC-1295, and then melanotan-2, which I experimented with, and basic GHRPs. I mean, the basic basics.

Oh, we're going to have to go back and forth because I have a horror story for you to go back and forth. But, you know, it just progressed. And then when there was these things called pro hormones. So for people watching in short, pro hormones are basically steroids that were legal at the time that you could sell. They were legal. designer steroids. They're steroids.

actual steroid but the way that they were made and methylated they were worse for you than steroids wow and they banned them in like 2014 and after that happened all of these companies were stuck with hundreds of thousands and sometimes million dollars of raw materials and these were categorized as steroids now so that was a schedule one drug if you got caught with these you were going to prison

Okay, so people stopped selling them. So what did they do? They discovered SARMs. They discovered peptides. So they started selling SARMs illegally, marketing them as supplements because what we'll get into is SARMs and peptides sold could only be sold as research chemicals. And a SARM is what?

A selective androgen receptor modulator, meaning it's selective to the androgen receptor, so it's very selective on where it goes, where steroids can cause you all of these harms because SARMs are selective and go to a certain androgen receptor that's mitigating a lot of the side effects, basically.

In short, easy terms, we could get more scientific into it, but we're looking at far less side effects. Like, for instance, prostate's a big concern with steroid use. You're not concerned with prostate with SARMs use because it's selective. But what happened was they started putting these into capsules and selling them, and then this big SARMs explosion has taken off ever since.

The problem was a lot of these places were putting their pro-hormone powders into the SARMs and selling them as SARMs. So now you've got all of these articles everywhere that SARMs caused these problems and that problem when people were taking pro-hormones without really knowing it. There's no testing here. They're not FDA regulated.

You don't know what you're taking, just like a lot of the supplements we take now. You know, some are good, some are regulated and some are just thrown in and you don't know what you're getting. So I've went through this whole evolution. And then that brings us closer to today where peptides started to be prescribed. I, you know, 2019, 2020 is when people started kind of prescribing them.

So you know what I'm going to do here too because I have my e-books here and I get into these too. But I mean peptides are really just – they're just amino acids and they're – They're composed of single chains of amino acids, and that makes a relatively large peptide, right? I mean, that's all that – if we're just keeping it as simple as we possibly can, that is literally all it is.

It's just amino acids formed into a peptide chain. And so there's different numbers on each one and all of that, but it's – It's not as difficult as it sounds. And a lot of these, like for instance, we know BPC-157 is the most talked about peptide in general right now at this time. And I can confirm that on sales of underground sites because I get all the data from owners.

because I study and keep ahead. And it's just produced naturally in your gut. Now, we're taking it exogenously when we inject it, but it's something natural. It's a lot more safer and optimal. Most of these peptides, they really aren't going to cause you harm unless you absolutely abuse them. Now, you and I have discussed GLP-1s, and that's a different story on misuse.

I'm so glad that you brought up not hopefully needing pharmaceuticals with the use of things like this, because that is exactly where I was going to go with this. If you go down a list, and like you're talking right now, so if you try to go get certain things prescribed, there's only so many things that you can get prescribed anywhere in from any clinic or any doctor or anything like that.

Your list is going to be quite short on what they can actually prescribe you. There's hundreds and thousands of peptides to choose from. Now, sifting through where to buy them safely is a whole other thing that we can discuss as we go on. But in terms of my hierarchy, I'm always going to start with your basics, your nutrition, your sleep, just like with nutrition, the amount of protein intake,

And having our macro and micronutrients correct. But then if we're looking past that and we're looking at supplements, there's basic things like creatine that I think everybody should take. And we can talk about ages, but I think there's such a gap there that you can safely do it. And I believe – like I have my mom in her 70s on it. I firmly, firmly – Amen.

Absolutely. And, you know, this is funny because when I was in high school and I mean, I'm not old, but I mean, I'm 43. So, I mean, we're talking in the later 90s. We were that was what we were starting to take. I was 14 when I started taking it. I had some gaps in between there when I was partying too much. But in general, I've taken it most of my life.

However, there are certain things that will. God's will for one, and if you don't believe that, fine, but there are certain things. You need air to breathe, you need food to live, right? So there's certain things, but everything that affects somebody, and this is what I do when it comes to supplements and steroids and peptides and things, I have to assess everything

each individual's ability to metabolize testosterone or they're converting to estrogen at a higher rate than you or I may. So when it comes to these aspects, what I like about you guys and why we're so similar is that we're looking for the truth and the answers and trying to find them.

And the people that are able to do that and adapt and realize that just because somebody tells you that you need an antidepressant or that everybody needs a statin or ibuprofen is the cure-all to every single ache and pain that you have. It is all nonsense. All of it is nonsense. And the people that realize that are the people that live longer and that are healthier. Now, granted,

in biohacking, which essentially is just taking care of yourself and half of it's common sense, some of it, new technologies and things, but it's really, and I put this video biohacking is finding yourself. And when you find yourself, you're able to take care of yourself. Right. And so,

By doing that, you give yourself the ability to overcome these things that just get put into your head that you have to do this or if not, you're crazy. And in reality, they're crazy, right? So what I like about you guys is your willingness to get into these things, to talk about them and to break them down and to make them make sense.

Because when you get angry or you get defensive, then people won't listen. And so, you know, and it's important to, as hard as it is to be patient with some people, to try to do that. So I've got a ton of things to talk to you guys about. I'm really glad you covered the metabolism aspect because I was laughing because I'm like everybody else. Oh, so-and-so can eat that. They got a fast metabolism.

I can't stand them because I can't do that. But in reality, they're killing themselves inside, right? So so-and-so could eat McDonald's all day. Well, guess what? That's great. They don't gain weight, but I bet you anything their cholesterol is a mess and we can go down the line. I've got a bunch of stuff, but we talked about this a little and we didn't have time to get into it.

My simple point, very simple, and I told you this, 300 calories in each hand, right? So I've got like 12 ounces of chicken is about 300 calories, well, 10 ounces of chicken, or I got like an extra large Reese's bar. And you're going to sit there and look me straight in the face and tell me that they're each 300 calories and that they're equal, right?

And I just cannot take you serious if you're telling me that. When X is lean, it's got no sugars, it's got no this and no that, and this thing's got every messed up thing under the sun in it. So anybody that's going to really look me in the eye and tell me that, I'm thinking that they're functioning with less than half a brain cell. What do you guys think?

That's 100% right. And I would love to see a study where we took a baseline and we did a full comprehensive panel, like cholesterol panel. I don't care just about HDL, LDL. I want to see everything. I want to see APOBs. I want to see particle sizes. I want to compare them to somebody that's eaten McDonald's or fast foods in the same amount of calories with the same amount of workout load.

And the person that's eating a very, very clean diet all throughout the week, I want the people to slam sugar, fried foods, everything. And I want to see what their profiles, their CBCs, their CMPs, I want to see it all. And then let's talk.

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
And then I also want to know why all these guys that I train that are pros and that I see that are trained, if it's calories in and calories out, then they theoretically... They should be able to eat all this dog shit and look the same if they're having the same amount of calories, correct? How come nobody's on that diet? I guess I'm lost. And so the science there.

And another thing I would like to just point out, and Rob, you and I are very, very similar in what we've been through with the low-fat thing. And I am like, I have... four different nutrition certifications. I coach nutrition. This is like, I've been studying nutrition since I was 12 years old.

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
And literally I do every single thing against what I've set until like it clicked with me like three weeks ago that finally I had to stop living in this dark hell that I put myself in forever because I'm so hard on perfection. And yet I'm burning I'm burning alone just in cardio, 1400 calories. Then I'm lifting. So I'm up in the 2200 and then resting.

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
I mean, I'm burning like 4500 calories a day, yet I'm still able to add weight because I'm eating so little. And now I started eating way more, more fats, things I was avoiding. I'm literally dropping weights and I'm eating way more. And like feel better and just everything. I'm not, I'm still not there yet. Cause you know that it takes, you've been doing something for 25, 30 years.

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
It takes, it's hard to break, but just in shit, two weeks, you know? And it's like, what the hell just happened? And it just like this light of everything I've taught went off for me. And so that brings me to my next, now that we're talking about calories, because I've seen you guys talk about this. And I think that there's so much bad information when it comes to calories in general.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
And that convolutes thoughts and understandings. And that's why I think beyond what we're going to get into later about what they do to foods and everything. I think one of the biggest problems, you correct me if I'm wrong, is bad information, misconception, misunderstanding. So I really want you guys' thoughts in detail on counting calories. calories.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
And if that, because what you were talking about stress, well, cortisol is a major problem with weight gain, right? And you start overthinking and doing things and stressing out about that on top of all your other stresses, you're just going to go down, down, down, down, down this hole.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!

Love it. Absolutely love it. So there's so many good points that you guys made there that I absolutely love. The information part just, it makes me so angry. And a lot of it is I'm jaded because I've been in the supplement industry so long and everybody always wants a study here and a study there. But then when I tell them,
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
So easily, you just, anybody can manipulate a control group, just like any political poll can be manipulated. You call a certain audience and put out some numbers, right? I can go pick out X amount of people that I know fall into a category that are going to give me the result that I want. Right.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
And and so those points and the amount of information that gets put out where you just and misrepresentation on boxes, low fat food or contains X amount of this. You know, you guys remember when low carb first became popular? Very like that. So I remember. And I'm going to curse here. My mom came to me and she said, well, look at this. I got it. It says it's low carb.

I said, let me see that real quick, mom. And I turned it around because we speak freely. It's an Italian family. Right. And I turned it over and I said, mom, I said, can you tell me what the fuck is wrong with this? And I poured it over and I said, look at all this shit. And I went down this list and she just kind of looked at me and she's just like, really? I said, gosh, damn. And that point.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
Because I was in my 20s still and I was studying nutrition, but I was like... I had partying and things I was doing, so it wasn't of my biggest concern. But that's when it clicked with me like, oh, shit. Like, this is just going to get worse and worse and worse and worse. And I mean, you guys know, you've watched it progressively just grow into a monster now. And so... I want to touch on that.

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
But real quick too, I want to talk about two things. I want to talk about like reading labels and understanding the labels too. But I do want to touch on when you're counting calories, what do you guys kind of teach people about their intakes? Because what I think now is that, like for me, what I was telling you, I'm not eating enough for all I'm burning. So I'm stepping up what I'm eating.

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
I'm getting the right amount of fats, which I've been terrified of, like a complete and utter moron that I know is wrong. And I'm putting all of this stuff in and I'm like getting more cut, getting more shredded, getting bigger, muscular, yet I'm seeing some scale weight drop.

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
So do you guys feel that maybe you have to eat more to get your metabolism kicking to feed yourself in the process to get it going properly? And then you're actually going to be far better off. Now, of course, there's a cap. You don't want to eat fucking 8,000 calories a day or something crazy. But how do you look at that? And what do you guys feel for somebody?

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!

So, you know, when we talked before, I kind of brought this up, but we didn't get into it. I care in everything that I do. And diet is really where this falls into. One simple word, sustainability. There you go. You can achieve a goal. You can win a championship. You can have a goal of losing 20 pounds and hit it. That's awesome. But then what? Then what?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
So you put somebody on this really harsh diet. They drop down. They get there. They've done all of this stuff that hurts them in a variety of ways. We'll just keep it very simple. Starve themselves, lack nutrients, whatever. You get there. And then what happens? Oftentimes, it's kind of like people in my kind of line of work that want to use clenbuterol. All the time want to use clenbuterol.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
And I tell them. Beyond the short and long-term damage to your heart, what generally happens with somebody that uses clenbuterol is they lose a bunch of weight. They can't take it forever. They get off of it. And not only do they gain the weight back, but they end up gaining more weight back.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
And so the sustainability factor is huge with things. And we can get into this too. I don't like the keto diet because I don't feel that it's sustainable. And I don't like somebody just stripping carbs out forever like that. I just don't like it.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
Yes. So I will, I want to tell you guys this real quick before I move on. So I literally, for the past, I don't know, decade, especially the past five years, it's, it's, and some of this is stress related.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
Some of it is like, I have to hold up a certain thing for what I think I need to be viewed as, but I'm at the, I I've gotten to the point where like I count my fats and it literally was only coming from the peanut butter I ate. And I'm talking maybe 15, 15, 20 grams a day max. Right.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
And I mean, I'm eating 14 and 15 servings of vegetables per day and just like basic egg whites, oatmeal and protein powder. And that's about it. Right. And I, you know, I hold up and people like, oh, you're in great shape and great condition. And I am a extremely impatient and irritable. Every morning you get out of bed, I'm just like, oh, fuck, you know, like hurting everywhere.

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
I can't I find that I'm trailing off and not staying focused. It's an abundance of things. You're not really losing weight. And if your scale looks good, your body is not cut. It's not shredded. It's not toned like you want it. And I'm telling you, dude, like I've tried to amp it up to like 60 grams of fat. I should probably be at like 80 to 90 realistically, maybe even more. Right.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!

Well, yeah, it most certainly did. And it's so... Once again, it's one of those things where it's the bros pass these things around and it's like you can only eat this and that is it. And that's the only thing that's going to work. And it's just not factual. And when you're, yes, when you're a bodybuilder and you're trying to do that, yes, you're going to need X amount more protein than others.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
But anybody that really understands muscular growth and bodybuilding will tell you and grasp the concept that carbs are so important. When it comes to that, it is so vital. That's why you see a lot of people doing like post-workout carbs, inter-workout carbs, and then the fats. I have been so stuck on this high protein, moderate to not low, but moderately low carbs and then very low fat.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
And that is just wrong. It's just not right. It's really not. And I wanted I wanted you guys's thoughts on what is your feeling on ratios in terms of parts of your diet? Like, do you feel like maybe fats, 30, 35 protein state? Like, do you have a pretty equal? Do you have one higher than the other? Where are you guys at, like for overall diets on that?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
All right. So essentially, you're doing one or the other and you're having a pretty good amount of protein. And I'm assuming you'd get a good amount of fiber then throughout the day too.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
I want to hear all about this. I just want to make sure I understand. So you're basically, and I like this, it's one or the other. You go high fat, lower carb or higher carb, lower fat in your meals and pretty much every meal that you do, but not a high fat after a workout for the reasons you brought up, which I hate to say they're obvious, but they kind of are.

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
You don't eat a high carb meal. So how do you guys, before I do the fiber question, because now I really want to know, I just am curious on your meal sizes. Because I tend to do, I don't do a million meals a day by any stretch of the imagination. I was just snacking on vegetables all day long, literally like every hour, which I've stopped doing now. But I'm kind of doing like...

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
350 to 400 on my my times that I sit down and eat maybe like four four times maybe because I'm I'm constantly doing stuff and I the way that I work out I kind of have to eat a little bit more because otherwise I'm just toast right I mean just fucking toast wow how many like what are you doing like how many calories are you guys doing per meal because if you're only eating one or two meals I'm assuming they're pretty good size

We're going to probably, as long as you guys are up for it, this is going to be the two, three, fuck four part series. Cause I got, I had things I wanted to talk about. I got like a 500 things I want to talk about. So that's how good the conversation has been. So I'm hoping that we get to do this several more times. In saying that, tell me about the fiber thing. I'm curious.

It does. So it's something to think about. Yeah. So like, cause I don't necessarily go and look for foods with a ton of fiber, but I take like, I, I've kind of gotten into you like with some of my heart issues. So I make sure that I have psyllium husk as part of something that I'm taking in every day for, for different reasons. Yeah.

We're going to have to do an entire episode just on cholesterol. And so I can... I want to go to fucking town with you guys on that. Like, literally, I just want to do a whole thing strictly just focused on that. Because I think that between the three of us, I think we can... maybe piss some people off, but educate a lot of people that need it.

I want to talk about the MCT oil compared to other oils. And I have seen... probably in the past year to two years that a lot of people transitioning to that route with the MCT oil. And especially when I get into the biohacking areas and it's like, that is definitely the favorable oil that I see used. I want to know two things. Why is that so much favorable now?

What happened or what is it that you see or that we found that puts that there? And the saturated fat that comes in that, you know, from that oil as opposed to other kinds of saturated fat, let's say somebody that is supposed to be watching their saturated fat intake or is worried about it, or like, is that mythical and how bad that is? And why, what makes the stand so far apart?

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
So you said with the MCT oil, it's not heated. So you don't cook with it then at all, correct? No. So you just kind of pour it over something or is that how you kind of use it? Pour it over your food or- Well, we don't actually use it at all.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!

I'm sold. All right. I'm sold. I have to try this out for myself. What do you guys do with it? Then you obviously, if you don't cook with it, you just kind of drizzle it on some foods that you eat or how do you use it? Oh, the SCT oil? Yeah.

Yeah. I love it. Yes. I'm, I'm enjoying this. I already was amped for this, but like way more than I even expected. So, and I had high expectations. I did, you know, there was something that you said earlier that I really want to know your thoughts on because you were listing off different like things on labels and stuff. So this is a two part question. One,
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
I want to know what your thoughts are on artificial sweeteners, because I mean, shit, the list from when I was like in middle school and high school to what it is now. I mean, Xylitol, Stevia. I mean, it's like boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. Erythritol. It's like monk fruit. It's fucking it's like trying to I should be careful with what I say. Try to figure out how many genders there are now.

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
You know what I mean? It's like how many sweeteners are there now? It's crazy. So I want to know. what you guys feel like, how does that affect you? Maybe your metabolism? Do you think that any of these are good? Are they all bad? I see these studies that come out that are probably manipulated.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
And then two, when you're looking at a food label, and I know it's not common sense for everybody, but when you're looking at a food label, obviously whatever's listed first, that's the most that's in there or whatever. But you go down and you see this you'll see these different food colors, for example, and then you'll see natural flavors.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
And some of this stuff is tricky because you see that and you think natural flavors, oh, it's fine, you know, whatever. Tell me, I'm curious after you talk about the sweeteners, what your thoughts are on certain things like that I just listed, the food like blue two or whatever the hell, you know what I mean?

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
Those, you know, and I know I have some, I have some facts on those, but I'm sure you guys got more. So I'm curious what your thoughts are on those after you talk about the artificial sweeteners.

It made me cringe when you just said that about the blue. and what it does and how it affects. Cause you know what? I'll tell you, like, I think it was, man, I want to say it was like two or three weeks ago. I told my wife, I said, you know what? I said, I'm going to do a little, little test here. I said, let's go into the cupboard. Let's pull out my pre-workouts. Let's pull out the BCAAs.

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
I mean, over and I'm looking at all this stuff and I'm, and then, and then, you know, you go get online and you look at reviews on the ones that don't have all that. And all the bros are talking about how shitty they taste. And it's like, well, dude, maybe they taste good, but what are they doing to you?

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
And so when you said that and I said it made it because I was like, you know, and then I kind of blew it off because I was getting ready for the Missy Olympia and all of this stuff I've had going on. Now that you just said that, now that I really realize just how messed up that is.

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
And then when you look at the accumulation, if you really look at stuff, yeah, it might be at the end of the label, but it's still there. And if you're doing it with four or five, six different things, well, certainly it's adding up. Right.

Yeah, yeah, that's a whole other conversation. That's my wheelhouse. But, you know, it's looking for making changes and not depending on all of this basic shit. I mean, there's no other term for it. You can try to be politically correct on it, but it's just pure shit. I mean, and so I love that we're talking about that and explaining to people just how bad. So it's not just like small areas.

I mean, this is so wide range. There's so many things that we could talk about. I think, though, that I think one of the main things that I personally want people to take from this conversation is so simple, yet so hard to understand is just. Eat real food and try to take as much real as you can and mitigate and minimize all of the nonsense.

especially if you're metabolically healthy yeah that that whole good the stuff that's good for your taste bad is such a crock of shit man like i i totally disagree with people that say that i can tell you like a lot of my life i've fallen victim to um i just started eating avocados like four or five days ago and i've had this in my head that i don't like them and i don't know why

And just because, look, and I want to point this out to everybody, everybody that does something that's a professional that does something always has to have somebody else they can go to and talk to. Because just because we teach something doesn't mean we always do it.

And so for me personally, and I'm sure for a lot of people watching, this is a breath of fresh air because then I get reiterated to me like, hey, you need to take a step back and listen and not think you know everything. And thank God the older I've gotten, the far less that I think that I know. Because if you were trying to tell me this stuff 10 years ago, I'd do this.

That's right. I always, always, always say you can never know too much, but you can always know too little. And some people look at me for a second, they have to think about it.

Love that. That's a That is, and anybody listening, and if it's too much, too quick, basically, it's like essentially saying, get yourself ready first before you go and do something. This is what I run into with a lot of people that I, once again, I'm going to relate it to some of my audience. The people that get upset with me that they want to run X, Y, and Z compound.

And I say, look, you're not ready to run it yet. You're not in the right condition. You're not the right age. I mean, there's certain things that go along with it. And it's just the same thing that Dr. Scott is saying. If you're not ready for it yet, it's not going to be beneficial for you or you're not going to get what you need out of it. Just so everyone understands. It's the same thing.

Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
So let's just say somebody's got like tennis elbow or some kind of arthritis or some kind of nagging injury. Would the hyperbaric chamber be ideal for them? Would that be helpful or would that kind of be something that you would go another route with?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
It's tough too, because like Quest will have a different range, LabCorp will have a different, all these different, have different ranges. And then over time, one of the things that I find to be extremely disturbing is, well, twofold. One, the acceptance of testosterone levels declining, declining, declining, and that being acceptable and who- The new normal, yeah. It is not normal at all.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
And tell people that, it really- And it makes me pissed to no extent because I know because I've been studying it for 15 years, you know, what a good changes and what's not in this decline and then not addressing what's causing the declines. You know, I mean, that's a different topic for a different day, but it's still relatable in what you're saying. Totally.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
So this is kind of one of those things that I have found to be difficult to assess. And I'm wondering how hyperbaric would work with that. And that would be something like a fibromyalgia condition, because I know how out there that condition really is. To me, it's hard to even comprehend and understand because it varies from person to person.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
Is that something that may be too much for that kind of treatment? Or do you find people finding help with that too that have that condition? Or do you even mess with it?

Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
All right, everybody, welcome back to the Dylan Gemelli podcast. So if I was to put the term podcast Wealth of knowledge on my guest today, that would be far, far, far too low of a compliment. This man does it all, and I am extremely impressed. He is, well, he's an internal medicine physician. He is a certified health optimization medicine. He's certified for hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
I'm thinking one more condition too, I'm curious. And I wanted to bring this up to you now, because we're talking about more of an oxygen type therapy. I did a paper, now granted the internet was fairly new, This was in 2001. I was in college and I did a paper and I did a paper on oxygen therapy and I was looking at trying to cure disease.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
Like so, for instance, we were looking at herpes simplex because the ox was able to smother it and kill it and kill it off. And they did this in Germany and I found it and I wrote a whole paper on it. I remember. To this day, I remember it. And so I was fascinated. And then I started partying, playing basketball in college and didn't get back into all of this stuff and got distracted.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
But I was so fascinated by that. Is that something that is a possibility in terms of curing so-called viruses that need suppressive therapy as opposed to... Is that a possibility with something like this where you could potentially smother the disease with oxygen and kill it off? Or was that just nonsensical and nothing that... you would find to be accurate at all?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
I'm not sure if you do any of this, write prescriptions for this at all, but theoretically, I'm just thinking in my head, would a combination of like BPC-157 with the hyperbaric chamber, would that be a good combination for healing? And do you do anything like that or have you seen anything like that?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
Yes, I love that. And I did this myself. I found out about something genetic with my heart, with my LP little a, and then I threw every fucking thing I possibly could at it. And while I got that number to drop drastically, it was like Rob Peter to pay Paul. My liver value shot up. My kidney value shot up because I was doing way too much shit.

And that's why it's like what you said, test a little bit, see how it goes, then move forward and keep going. So I love that because... A lot of us have the tendency to just panic and just want to throw the kitchen sink at it.

Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
Love it. Okay, so here's what I would like you to do if you would, please. Would you give just a short little synopsis or breakdown in the simplest terms for everybody watching what the gist of metabolomics is? Because I am so fascinated. When we get done with this, I want you to give me whatever you've got so I can sit down and just enthrall myself in it.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
But just for everybody watching, just a quick little synopsis of what that is because the way that you have presented this, the importance of it is just, it is insanely high. So I just want a great understanding of what it is.

Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
Dude, I wish you knew how much I love that you said you don't deal with theoreticals. If I had, I would be a multi, multi fucking millionaire. If you knew how many times that I had to say that to people, this is why I'm so thrilled to be talking to somebody like you and the people that I've been around because all of these guys and I...

Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
stress over and over i don't care how you feel because how you feel could have it could be a symptom of xyz i mean all the way up and down i want you i want to see exactly your blood panel so for instance i'll get these guys well i think my estrogen's high so i'm going to blast the nastrozole and do this and i'm like dude you could have symptoms of this this this or this you do that you crush your estrogen and you're screwed and you're exacerbating a problem creating a new one

Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
So I mean, if you only do, I've been doing this for like 13 years with the same thing over and over and over again. Just for anybody listening, please understand that guesswork and theory, it doesn't pan out. You have to have accurate numbers and assessments done. Otherwise, you could be treating the wrong problem and creating a new one or making the present problem worse.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
So thank you very much for that. Okay. I've got another, and I will link some information in our video, like where to look up some of this stuff and where to follow you and everything, because this is some intense stuff that I think people are going to want to read and look into. I want to talk to you about something else that you and I talked about this. I'm curious about that.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
I think it'll be beneficial to everybody. And that was mitochondrial optimization. Could you kind of tell me what that is and how you... Like how that applies to what you do.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
That's amazing, man. So everything that you do, it all correlates into one. I mean, because you have so many different things you do, but it all really comes together as one, basically, in your practice.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
So what are the keys then to fixing it? Is it all like kind of diet nutrient related? And then second part of that question, is there like any type of extra medication supplement or anything that you can take to also add to helping to improve that?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
So to test and find out if you have issues there, is it like a blood test or what is the testing that you do?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
I just typed that in my notes, the organic acid testing. Where does one get that done at then?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
So is there a certain kind of age range that we see mitochondrial issues or is it variable? I guess my assumption would be it would be as you get a little older, but I don't know. Is it something that's prevalent in all ages? Definitely gets more prevalent as we get older. Okay. All right. So when would you recommend somebody maybe look into getting that tested? What age do you recommend?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
But I can tell you right now, I'm getting this shit done. I didn't know anything about this. And actually watching a lot of your things the past few days that I've been enthralled in what you're doing, I'm going to do a much deeper dive on cellular and mitochondrial studies because my knowledge is limited and I want to be able to convey this message too. But I want to know. in detail.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
And I hope people watching see the importance of understanding the real aspects of our health that we need to understand. A lot of these basic things that are thrown out there are, I don't want to say they're insignificant, but they're not even close to what we need to really be understanding and learning. That's kind of what I was doing.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
I talked to a lot of people about cholesterol testing and I tell them HDL, LDL, and triglycerides, fine, that's fine to test them. But the reality is that you need a comprehensive panel your LP little a, your ApoB, your particle slices, that's where you find out if you've got a real issue.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
And that's the one I always test for is the high-sensitivity C-reactive protein and the inflammation testing and look at all of that because you're right, that tells pretty much everything. I mean, if you're screwed up there, you know something needs addressed, there could be a lot of problems and it should trigger you to get everything.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
In fact, you shouldn't be getting everything tested regardless, but that's one you definitely want to look at. Okay, so you've mentioned this several times and I want to dig into it. for my personal understanding, but for everybody's as well. So let's just break down methylene blue.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
Let's talk about what it is exactly and who would be a prime candidate for it and if there's multiple people for it and then if there's any side effects with it or anything, any people that shouldn't look taking it.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
Yeah, go ahead.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
It's a good lead into the question.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
Awesome. And see, and this is how I'm going to correlate what you're doing kind of to what I'm doing, because everybody kind of just wants a quick fix all the time and they don't look for the root of the problem first. So anybody that came to you just wanted thrown into that chamber, you could potentially cause them more harm, correct? I mean, if that's not what they need.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
Is there any type of side effect or anything that any person that shouldn't take it?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
A lot of the people that I coach, they just want, they think they're going to take a pill and boom, boom, boom, it's just going to work. And I have to go look at blood work. I have to put them on the right diets. I have to make sure their training style, then we're just spinning our wheels and we're not getting anywhere. And sometimes we're exacerbating a problem going back.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
Two-part question. How long can you run it? And is that something that you have to get a prescription for? Or how does one go about getting it?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
So it's kind of similar. Of course. Yeah. Let me ask you this, because what I find, the more that I've gotten into biohacking and the more that I've gotten to a deeper understanding with the type of doctor you are, as opposed to general practitioners or just regular doctors, the focus is really on cellular health, mitochondrial health. Why is it that...
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
All right. So is this something that you cycle on and off of, or do you just stay on it permanently, or how does that work?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
So we're talking like it's going to increase your VO2 max then, correct? Is that what we're looking at?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
The doctors like yourself that I find to be by far the most intellectual and the more that intrigue me seem focused on the things that really need to be focused on as opposed to doctors that just want to, okay, we're going to put you on a statin. Okay, we're going to put you on an NSAID. Okay, we're going to put you on an antidepressant.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
Okay. Understood. Understood. So essentially then I was on, obviously this is because I had looked this up after you and I talked and I saw an advertisement come up for transcriptions on my Facebook and I started laughing immediately. Nice. So is that how, so let's say somebody wants to be a patient of yours or get methylene blue, is that how they do it? Or what exactly is transcriptions?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
And they don't look for the core root problem of anything at all. What is... kind of popularized that more so lately? And let me ask you this too, and not to make this a two-part question, but do you find that it is, because a lot of things politically or just in general, they get demonized or they kind of try to dissuade people from going to certain alternative medicine doctors.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
So those anti-inflammatories, those are way safer than like an NSAID, right? Like an ibuprofen or something that's damaging your liver and your kidneys and
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
That's a question for me personally because I admittedly abused the shit out of ibuprofen for a year straight because I had the 800 milligram prescription. And I was doing three a day for a year because my foot was busted and I run 10 miles a day and I was just trying to get through it. And then I realized, like, Dylan, like, what are you doing here?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
You know, like, oh, it's for people like me that are going through that. And, you know, I tend to lean more towards peptides and medicine in general. But, yeah, that's a good option. So let me ask you this in terms of the prescriptions.

He is the Troscriptions COO, and he is the chief medical officer and founder of One Base Health. And there's a lot more that I'm going to let him get into. But my friends, this is Dr. Scott Scherr. Good to see you, Dylan. Thank you for having me. Welcome, man. I appreciate you taking the time.

Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
company itself, is that something that if somebody goes there, buys methylene blue, how do they get you to monitor them or a physician or practitioner to monitor them? Are they going there, they're just buying it and they're just doing it on their own?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
Time for one more question. I know we're getting towards your time. I'll ask you one more thing. We talked about the GABA system a little bit, and I was hoping that you could just maybe give a quick breakdown of what that is and the importance of it, because I know you seemed a little passionate about it. I'm curious, and I know a lot of people probably would be too.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
So if you could, that would be awesome.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
Do you find that to be a problem for yourself or do you find that more people are being more accepting of that now?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
So how would somebody find out if they're off there with their GABA? Is there testing that they can do or...
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
So it's certainly not a bad idea to go ahead and attempt to optimize this then at all, really. For sure. Sounds a bit, I mean, anybody should and could go do it.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
Right.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
Okay, cool. Let's finish up with this then. A couple of things. If somebody wants to order on Troscriptions, do they have to go like register as a patient? They can just get on there and order? How does that work for somebody?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
And do you take like telehealth patients or do you do anything like that? Or is it just kind of on site where you're at?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
Awesome. Man, I swear, dude, I could talk to you all day with all of this shit. I love it so much. I can't tell you how much I've gained just from this conversation and the things I've been watching. I still got a lot left to watch. So thank you for being generous with your time and for all of your insight and your intellect.

Well, you've given me some homework to do tonight that I'll be working on. And I'm sure you have for others. So once again, I appreciate your time and your efforts and all that you do because it is extremely valuable and we need more people like you that are willing to take this step out and get out into a different realm and bring new things to light.

I told you beforehand how enthralled I was in your work and your videos, and we have a ton to talk about today. So I want to make sure that we utilize the time that I have you. So let's just kind of start with, I'm curious why you chose the route you went, what brought you into all of these things that you're doing? What fascinated you and what got you started? What was your motivational factors?

Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
See, I'll be honest with you. Some of the things you're talking about, I didn't know about. I was blessed enough when I was at the Mr. Olympia and then to be invited to speak there. I told you about Dr. Urethra. I told her, I sat with her and I talked to her quite an extensive amount of time. And I said, I didn't know people like you even existed at all. Yeah.

You know, in my area, I'm talking about underground stuff. I'm talking about steroids. I'm talking about peptides. I'm talking about SARMs way before anybody, any practitioners or anybody even knew about them. But I know until, you know, 2020, 2021, that they were even being prescribed. And then when I saw Like the alternative medicine doctors.

Now, I'm going to an IHPI to get certified and work on this myself because of the fascination level. And I want to be on the same level as obviously I won't be on your level intellectually, but to start to understand more, to look at different aspects like we're talking about here. How did you decide, man, this is like, I'm missing all of this. I didn't learn this. This is what I want to do.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #9 Featuring Dr. Scott Sherr PART 1! Methylene Blue, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Cellular and Mitochondrial Health, Metabolomics, Understanding the GABA system and SO MUCH MORE!!
And how do you make this work the way that you do? Because it's what you know, especially if it wasn't taught to you younger. First of all, it's harder to learn stuff when you get a little bit older. And secondly, I mean, you have so much knowledge on this. How do you do all of this and make it all work?

Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
And, um, I will do mostly that. I will have one set that's a grass fed way that I will mix in every now and then that I also designed there. And then they have their true flavor. So it's Stevia instead of sucralose that's in there. So we try to avoid that. Obviously we don't want that. And, um, I mix that all together in a container and then I pick a fruit.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
I either put in blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, or blackberries, and I'll have a serving of that a day. So it's a nice boost of protein. And if you get a little hungry in the middle of the day there, you got a nice, satiating, you know, little, almost like a mini dessert type of deal basically is what it tastes like depending on what flavor protein powder you put in there.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
So that's another little thing that I add in there. And then I either have 12 to 14 ounces of salmon per day, which generally is about four to five days a week. And then I will mix in cod or Chilean sea bass. You gotta be careful that now the Chilean sea bass is, I can eat it every day, but it's a little bit higher in the mercury content. And it's very, very expensive.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
It's like 30 bucks a pound, but it is delicious. So what I do with those is I put some chives on there and I will drizzle some olive oil on there, half a serving of olive oil, and then I'll either put a little bit of almond butter on there when I cook it, or I will put another little bit of grass fed butter on there when I cook it. And it is tremendous.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
Some, some of those, like yesterday I had, I believe it was about 14 ounces of cod and that was 70 some grams of protein and only 325 or 330 calories to keep track of everything daily. And so that that's a nice packed punch of protein. And with the salmon, really good fats and the salmon will fill you up a lot more than a white fish. And I forgot I do cut green onions and eggs also, by the way.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
So that was another meal. And then I generally do this. And this will be one of my later last meals. And I do this like an hour or two before I go to the gym, generally. So I will get, oh, about one green pepper, one zucchini, some onions. And we cook those up and mushrooms. And I will mix that in with...
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
Generally, a half a pound of either ancestral bison, ancestral venison, elk, or ground beef, and that is normally 93.7% grass-fed only, and that's 100% grass-fed. I do force of nature for the venison, elk, and bison since those are... you know, more difficult to find. And those are more exotics. And I just rotate every once in a while. I'll treat myself to the 85, 15 ground beef.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
It is so, so good, but you know, I, I, then we're getting a little bit higher on the fat content. So I will either cut something else out or still have those just a little less, but I like to have at least a half a pound. The venison is a lot leaner. So I normally go about 10 ounces of that when I do that. And, uh, yeah, I put, um, just a little bit of seasoning on there. And then I have some
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
Don't worry about what other men think about how I look. And I'm married, so it really doesn't matter about what anybody really thinks. Of course, we all want to look good, presentable, and feel good about how we look. And that's why I take good care of myself.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
Primal Kitchen organic ketchup. I'll put a little bit on there. I like, and it's really just a couple ingredients. It's just very basic water and tomatoes and there's nothing added or no sugar or anything like that. It's a very, very good product. And I do their mustard a little bit on there and It's I love it. It's super filling. I have that every single day.

Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
And so that that's hitting my numbers generally where we're at. And that's normally a full day for me. And then I try to fast as long as I can there in the evenings and try to, I was eating oatmeal every single night right before bed for like 10 years, literally. And I'm trying to cut that back quite a bit. I, I really even cut back on having much almond butter or, or,

Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
You know, I was doing walnut butter and things like that. And I'll have them here and there. But generally speaking, I've cut that back a ton too. And not really having that all the time like I was either. I'm really focusing on good, clean foods. You know, like I say, I really am a little bit fat heavy on my diet. I found through data that my body just chews through fat.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
I got tested with the NOE. It's P-N-O-E at a biohacking convention I was at. And he was showing me all the data. And it was just showing me. My body was eating through fat and I test myself with the lumen every day, see how I'm waking up and my body's always generally in burning fat mode. And, you know, I, I, I'm not, uh, demonizing carbs by any sense.

Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
I just know for me personally, when I go higher carb, I don't respond as well. I do need them. I believe in them. I believe in fruits and vegetables. I just don't believe in like for me personally, uh, Going heavy on carbs. Now, there are definitely people that require that. And I am a nutritionist. I'm not one that goes, oh, it works for me. So it's going to work for everybody.

Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
That is just not how this works, whether it be training, diet, whatever the case may be. It is very, very important to be structurally sound and cater to each individual based on their circumstances and their body responses, their genetic makeup. There's a lot of factors that go into that. Take my wife. She's Asian. And I'm not we joke about this.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
But I guess that I've been hiding behind certain things or critical of myself in certain areas, I guess, to where no one would really know or have any sort of understanding what was actually going on within me. So one of the reasons that I've been hesitant to discuss my diet is because I'm a nutritionist. I teach so many clients and so many people about proper nutrition and health.

But in reality, a lot of times your genetic background will determine what you handle well and what you don't. But sometimes, you know, like I went through that testing and they tried to tell me that I wouldn't that based on my background. Oh, you you. You can eat a lot of carbs and don't do well with fats. And I told the guy, well, that's the polar opposite.

But my point was with my wife is Asian. She gets away with eating the most abundant amount of rice you can imagine daily and still under 100 pounds. If I did that, I've tried it before and it doesn't work. So you have to be cognizant that everybody's different. Body responses are different. Needs and necessities are different. And as a nutritionist, that's what you have to figure out and learn.

um but it's to the extent of what's in it and it gives me that the extra grams of fat and protein with no sugar and that those ones do not have that sucralose in there and a lot of the other additives that the quest bars have there's still a couple things in there that i wouldn't say are ideal but if that's the worst i'm doing throughout the day because every other thing we buy is

as fresh as you can get it. I spare no expense on our food. I cut a lot of other expenses out of my life that aren't important and focused it on our food, which we're putting into our bodies.

And that's not to say it won't be difficult and you won't have trouble regardless, but I can tell you this, doing what I'm doing right now, it's very freeing to me and it doesn't make me feel any sort of way about myself.

It's when you act like you're perfect and you don't have any problems. That's the actual problem. And I've spent way too long doing that. Whether it was acting like I knew everything and my videos, not being honest with anybody about what was really going on with myself, whatever the case may be. And I'm a very spiritual guy, and God's guided me through a lot of it.

That's what I feel like I'm being led to do, and so that's what I'm doing. So I just hope it helps people. It sheds some light on... me.

but mine has been lacking severely. And one of the reasons why I never put on a ton of size was a, I, you know, as I got up higher in the, you know, 200, 205, 210 range, I didn't feel super comfortable, even though I look back on pictures and think I looked great.

And I've been in so many situations, whether it was me being a fashion model, which I've done all of the times I've worked in this industry and been criticized, critiqued, abused verbally, which really doesn't matter because it doesn't bother me at this point.

And so when I was growing up, I was always with the more popular kids and groups when I was in elementary and in middle school. But I was always really, really overweight once I hit about fifth grade, sixth grade, right around there. And really, even before that, I wasn't super comfortable. And I knew it. And it was difficult. It was knowing it inside.

Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
You know, I was an athlete, but I was always struggling with my cardio and what I was doing. And I always was a top athlete that looked bad, which doesn't make sense. And I struggled. I struggled mentally. I struggled physically to keep up. And the one thing, the one thing, it wasn't lacking any skill set. It wasn't lacking desire, but it was the issue of desire.

my lack of conditioning because I was overweight. And, you know, it got to the point where I would be embarrassed to take my shirt off at the swimming pool around kids. I knew that I was never in my head. I was never going to have a girlfriend. I was just always embarrassed. And, you know, as God bless my parents, because they were so, good and how they raised me.

And it got to the point where

Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
I still remember a trip that we took and I was going into seventh grade. So I think it was 11. I want to say it was 1994. So yeah, I was 12. And I remember that, you know, just, it was like these big dinners every night, ice cream, like whatever we wanted for two weeks on vacation. And I came home and I cried in front of the mirror with how I looked.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
actually sobbed and cried and I thought there was no way that I could ever fix this. And it was, it was horrible on me. It was, it was really bad. And I was about five foot eight at the time. And then over that summer going into eighth grade, I grew to almost six foot one. And I remember it was like tackle football and I lost like 30 pounds.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
And so going into eighth grade, it was like a totally different person. I looked completely different. And it was like, went from you know, popular, but not really with girls or, you know, you know that guys were taking shots at you behind your back. You just know you were being made fun of even though. And then it totally changed. Everything changed.

And so just a little background for those of you that don't know how I started and where I've come, I did many years, well over a decade, really doing videos that catered more to the bodybuilding world. I discussed steroids, SARMs, peptides, a lot of performance enhancing aspects of things. And That's the background that I've kind of been involved in.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
But then after several months of people making accusations that I really didn't do any of and didn't even know of from whether it was doing drugs or to being anorexic or bulimic, then it got into my head. And these thoughts got into my head. And then there was this, oh, my gosh, I don't ever want to gain the weight back, which I was really good about.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
I never thought about until it just kept going over and over and over and over and over. And that's when it hit me that like, oh, my, I went from, wow, this is amazing how good I feel in the response. and how I was performing in sports to this utter fear. And I mean, just a daily thing that was eating at me. And you imagine at 12 years old, and that's all you're thinking about.

Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
And then I started reading food labels, which you'd say, oh, that's a great thing you were studying. Then I was like, no, it was an obsessive thing. And I didn't even know what the hell I was reading at the time anyway. I mean, we know how many things have changed, but that's when it started. And so from there it was, I don't want to eat anything. Or then it was, I'm going to throw things up.

Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
And that was, imagine being in middle school and then people knowing. I remember I played travel basketball. And I remember being in a hotel room one night with two of my really, really close friends. And they thought I had my earphones on and I paused so that I could listen. And they were talking about it. Like, what the hell was wrong with me? And like, it was disgusting and it was gross.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
And like, they knew. Everybody knew it wasn't hard. I remember my parents getting so angry and my dad making a rule my freshman year, if I don't weigh 150 pounds, you're not playing basketball. That's what snapped me out of it at the time. It was fine. Once I fixed that and got over it, it was like, okay. it was a really dark, like six, seven months, but it worked itself out.

But you know, once I got a little bit older in my early twenties, again, it started to hit me again. And then it's just been a battle ever since on what I see in the mirror and what I look at. And anyway, so we go through the modeling aspect. I had really good times. You know, a lot of these times I'm partying though, and using drugs I shouldn't use. Of course I wasn't gaining weight. And, um,

Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
It was a constant something where I'm always worried about if I'm, oh, I'm eating too much or seeing things that really weren't there. And looking at pictures now, I'm like, what was your problem? What were you thinking? I really look at things now and wonder, what was I seeing? But it's still lingered and lingered and lingered all these years. And I always have this fear.

Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
And that's the main reason I never let myself get too big. And even using performance enhancing drugs, but not eating enough, you know, basically starving myself because I have, I am such a data guy. And I mean, right now, even I I do five days a week of cardio, even at 43 years old. I do about 15 miles on the elliptical. I run two miles.

I walk two or three miles and I stair climb another, I don't know, three miles. And then I also lift and then sometimes now play pickleball and other things that are active. You're mowing the lawn. You're doing all of these active things constantly. I mean, generally speaking for me to just maintain my,
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
My maintenance weight at 180, which is where I'm at right now, give or take, you know, sometimes 182 or three, depending on the day, I should be eating about 37, 3800 calories a day. And all of this time, the last four or five years, I've been scratching the surface at 16 and 1700 living this mental thing of fats are going to just destroy me, even knowing how vital they are and good for you.

Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
They are. And I'm telling you, for the longest time now, it's been a five or six year thing. I've lived on 10 to 12 servings of vegetables a day, sometimes a little more oatmeal, Greek yogurt, egg whites and peanut butter. And the only source of fat I was getting was peanut butter.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
So, you know, I'm getting maybe 15 grams of fat a day if I'm lucky, if I'm lucky, because I wasn't eating whole eggs either. And when I tell you that's what I was eating, that was it. No meat, no fish, no nothing. Very, very, very, very, very rarely. And I just, oh, and maybe a Quest bar here and there. And also a little bit of fruit in the yogurt, I guess, and protein powder.

The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
And that is literally the extent of what I was having. And so basically starving myself of nutrient after nutrient after nutrient. And what it does is, It puts you in this state of mind where you're always hungry. You're always thinking about it. I'm always looking in the mirror, checking my weight seven days a week and scrutinizing a pound here or half a pound there. What did I do? Why is that?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
Not realizing and understanding I was torching my metabolism and body was holding on to whatever it could and, you know, holding on to water, holding on to food, whatever it could. And that's what happens when you starve yourself. You don't actually lose weight. And in the process, you slowly degrade your body. You degrade yourself mentally.

Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
I couldn't stay focused and sit here longer than 15 or 20 minutes. It's no wonder I never got anything done. And very short-fused, bad attitude, very quick to be irritable, very, very impatient, which I've already been anyway. And that exacerbated it. And it just made me as unproductive and really miserable as it gets. And so where I'm going with this is now I finally fixed all of this.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #23 Opening up about overcoming an eating disorder as a nutritionist, everyday pressures of body image, my diet changes and how I am finally thriving!
One, really realizing and understanding the importance of fats in your diet and how vital they are to so many aspects of your health. especially on the mental side and the being sharp side, but also just in general, you know, and I was so scared when I was younger and in that low fat era when that was all that was given. And really, that's what created all of the disease and the problems.

And that's where it all started. And what I've done now is so drastic and it has changed everything for me. So I told you I was about 1,500, 1,600 calories a day. That's my workout days.

And, um, I will make a coffee after about 90 minutes of being up. But what I put in the coffee, SCT oil instead of MCT oil. So SCT oil is a short chain triglyceride oil and it really releases CLA.

It's a, it's a big one. And I do one piece of Ezekiel bread underneath. And that's the only piece of bread that I really have. I have one piece a day. And then what I do is we'll put six eggs.

I totally agree. You know, if anybody's paying close attention to this, the one key here, which is really just in life in general, but especially in marriage, it's one word is communication, right? Yes. As long as you communicate, anything can be figured out pretty damn quickly unless you got somebody super stubborn. But communication can really mitigate that, right? To start with.

I've had to do to be successful with the moral code, but in an industry where it's so cruel, like the things that are said, the dirty business with supplements and the companies and the bad intentions and the false advertising and all of the bullshit, basically in simple terms. And it culminated for me because I was invited to be a speaker with doctors and things I've been working for forever.

And mind you, I'm sick and I'm so bummed because I can't do anything and I'm super active.

looked at everything you were doing and approached you and talked to you and gained the knowledge and the confidence to go do this. I feel like I went from zero to a million in two weeks and figured out exactly what I'm supposed to be doing that I've been working for this whole time.

You have no idea like what it's meant to me. And, and I knew I was going to enjoy this conversation, but just the relatability and the, the genuineness of the conversation and what I see and what, you know, what I see in this industry in general is, And you were talking about it with the studies, for example.

Episode #6 Featuring Anthony and Tereza Lolli with Lolli Brands Entertainment! Producing Life Changing Documentaries, , Simplifying Biohacking for everyone, sHEALed Documentary, Biohackyourself Red Carpet Event and MORE!!
Every company does a manipulation, just like a poll that they do for the presidential election. They set it up however the hell they want to, to make it look however they want. It's the same thing with supplements, FDA. But in this, what I found is everybody looks for, and this is what I'm big on, I don't give a shit about the science.

And you read it and you go, well, Holy shit.

And I talked with the lady there and she, she went and talked to the supervisor and got me registered so I could go get the education that I want. Wow. You know, to my goal with this is to just get as much as I can, because I'm like, I have one spectrum and that's great. But if you're not multifaceted, you're really just kind of like doing that word I hate, which is called being complacent. Right.

Episode #6 Featuring Anthony and Tereza Lolli with Lolli Brands Entertainment! Producing Life Changing Documentaries, , Simplifying Biohacking for everyone, sHEALed Documentary, Biohackyourself Red Carpet Event and MORE!!

Here's what I feel, and I wonder how you feel about this, is like I feel that there's these built-in excuses for inadequacy. So like for like when Hillary Clinton lost, well, it was because she was a woman or whatever. That is just bullshit. Like that is just an excuse to cover up the fact that you were inadequate or when you just try to base it on skin color or whatever.

I'm so lost when you when you get you can really tell when a person when you get put on the spot, it's not scripted. It's off the cuff. You got no kind of training on it whatsoever. It's just answer this question.

And when you can't go straight into a question and answer it and you got to dance and dance and do these just nonsensical communication, it's just like, dude, how are you going to go talk to a world leader? You're not. We're screwed. And you have to ask yourself this. With everything that Trump has gone through. Now, I understand there's things about him people don't like. That's fine.

I think it's funny, but some people don't. OK, I get it. I do. But let me ask you this. For somebody that's gone through what he's gone through, like the just the nonstop onslaught. And it's never ended since he started this. What motive? What do you think the motive is for him to really want to do this aside from a love for the country for to go through all of this? He doesn't have to.

I didn't know anything about politics back then, but I always thought he was the worst because everything like the gas prices, the war on drugs, all of this shit, you know, and granted I was doing a lot of these things, but I was just like this guy. So I get it. I'm with you a hundred percent. I just feel that the, the motive now is a lot different than it has been.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!

I agree. You know, I did this and I want to start getting into the food dyes and the glyphosates and the different things here with you. So I did this little trick here with my wife. I said, let's do a test. I said, I want to go through the cupboard and take out my pre-workout powders, my BCAA powders, just certain things. And I said, I want to go run these down and see how many of these have

natural flavors, blue, yellow, you know, less than 2% sucralose or whatever. But if you start adding it up and it's like, holy shit, like boom, boom, boom. But I'm doing this daily, maybe multiple times daily. That's a lot when you add it up and they trick you with their verbiage and everything like that. So
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
What do you because I think that the biggest thing that we can do when we have a platform is educate, educate, educate, teach people what to look for. What are some things to look for? Some tricky things that people need to avoid when they're buying things, you know, on food labels or verbiage that are marketing that they need to just if they see it go, oh, you know, red flag.

Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
So how do we look for and talk about the dangers of glyphosate? How do we look for something that has glyphosate and avoid it? Is it like non-GMO? Is it organic? How do we avoid getting that in our foods?

Welcome back to the Dylan Gemelli podcast. I am your host, Dylan Gemelli, and I have a amazing guest with me today. I am extremely looking forward to having her on. She's very busy and has taken time for us. She is the owner and founder of IHC Agency and as well as the Biohack It podcast, but she does a ton of other things that we're going to get into.

I mean, I even saw something like it was a breakdown of the amount of ingredients in French fries and McDonald's in England as opposed to here. And it was like four over there and like 20 some here. I mean, it's just incredible. I do have a question that you brought up. Well, I have several from that because there were so many good ones. But when you said going

with grain free diet would be the best. So what are some examples of grains you would avoid? Because I know a lot like even myself, I eat oatmeal, for example, but it's non GMO, it's it's glyphosate free. But do you think like things like that? Or what other grains on top of that?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
Right.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
So I have been a nutritionist for 13 years and studying nutrition since I was 11. And I teach people everything you're saying, but myself, I have been in a black hole for 15 years eating low fat and thinking that was it. And literally... It's been about a month and a half and I went from eating and mind you, I'm working out like three and a half hours a day.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
So I went from like 15 grams of fat a day to 85. I've increased my calories 800 a day and I have gotten more cut and more lean and perform at such a high, better level than I have in like 20 years. I'm eating ground beef, every old ground bison, fish every single day and like cut out all of the other nonsense. I was snacking on vegetables and peanut butter all day, like literally all day long.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
And it has been like the most eye opening. And but that was a mental block with the low fat thing.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
Yes. And that's coming from somebody that teaches the polar opposite. So I'm glad you brought that up. And then there's so many good healthy fats that that we could even get into. But that is spot on. And I couldn't agree with you more. I want to touch on the Kellogg's things that you and I have talked about. So let's kind of get into that a little bit.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
Tell me a little bit of information that you put out on Kellogg's in general, because I find it very fascinating.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
I just don't understand. And then they wonder why issue A, B, C, and we're on ADHD meds or antidepressant meds and we're doing this and we're doing that. And it's just a jumbled mess from the start. And that's how we're training our kids. I just don't get it.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
Right. And one of the things that I see constantly over the past, I would say, shit, five to 10 years is this acceptance of like normal testosterone levels just drop, drop, drop, drop, drop, drop, drop, drop, drop. And it's like the percentage of what normal testosterone was like 34, even 50 years ago to what it is now. And then I see and I battle this because I do hormone optimization. Right.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
So I'm battling this with Quest, like they'll put out this new tier of where it's acceptable. And it's like so far from acceptable. And I think that diet plays a huge role in the crashing testosterone levels amongst other things. But how do you feel about that?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
Which is not ideal. It's much better to get it all from your food. The supplement is the key word there, supplement, meaning you supplement it in. And I think people get very dependent on protein powder supplements and try to compensate. I told my wife, I said, you know what?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
I think I'm taking too much magnesium in right now because of my diet change and I'm getting so much from food and I was taking so much to compensate for my lack. And so you have to be aware of that too. And I think that's important to be in tune with your body. Now, let me ask you this. Well, first, you brought up grass fed.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
So just for people watching that don't understand, like they take that term and they don't really grasp what that means. What what is the difference between grass fed and regular like beef or whatever?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
So talk about raw milk because that's very controversial. So I'm curious to your opinion on it. Why is there so much controversy behind raw milk?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
Right. A hundred percent. Okay. Yeah. Cause I just, I see so many people going back and forth on that and I'm just like, okay. So thanks for clearing that up too. So in your view, because I, and I'm curious too, because I do a lot of stuff on diets and I do a lot of this battling with. Keto type diets, low carb diets, you know, high fat diets. How do you feel about the keto diet in general?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
Do you are you a low carb, moderate carb? I'm just very curious as to your stance on it because you have so much good insight on diet. Where do you fall personally?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
I went like 15 years with like not having hamburger or meat or anything. And I have it every day. I kind of started doing bison now instead of ground beef. Oh, it's I mean, that's a different story altogether. It's so cushioned and like it's yeah, it's it's just satiating to to the highest level. I like how you said you started your day off with protein early.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
I think that's important in the morning, especially is that protein intake with a little bit of fats. I try to do a little bit of carb post-workout, but I'm kind of like 40-40-20, like 40 fats, 40 protein, 20 carbs. I'm just kind of working through it right now. To me, keto is very hard to sustain long-term. I don't think you should cut carbs out too long-term.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
Exactly. I feel the same way. I think it's good to have it in there. I don't like too high. Some people do. And you got it's trial and error, really, on your body. So I think people fall into this. Oh, it's got to be this or this or this. And they don't even try. You know, I was guilty of that. And I just tried. I'm like, holy shit. This is amazing. So but then there's my next question.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
When we were talking about oils earlier and we didn't go to it. So I'm a big, I take SCT oil, not MCT. So I'm talking short chain triglyceride. That's what I put in my coffee. And I'm big on olive oil and things like that. What is your opinion on like what oils do we need to look out for and what oils do you recommend using?

Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
Then that's where I was going to ask you. So this supplement you said it's called body bio that helps to build.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
PC. OK, so that's going to help build cellular health then, correct?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
Okay. So that's one of the things that I'm kind of getting into right now is mitochondrial and cellular health. Can you just state the importance of that for people and give them an understanding of just how important that truly is?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
I want to touch on that gut health, but real quick, one of the things that I'm sure you've noticed that I noticed too is a lot of people in biohacking may not necessarily have an MD after their name, but what I find is that they know so much more in depth because something has personally happened that has driven them
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
Right. Okay. Well, I hope everybody's paying attention closely to that because that is like of the utmost importance. So I just want to make sure that that is stressed fully. So I have another question for you. Um,
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
when I was at the eudaimonia convention, I was in a conference and this was a question posed to Andrew Huberman and they asked him what his top five, like most essential supplements were that he felt were so important. Do you have any that you recommend people that are just, so for me, Creatine is one of them.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
I believe glutamine is very important because of the ability to help with your gut repair. Basic everyday supplements that aren't going to be harmful that you really need on multiple levels. I've done a ton of study on creatine and the importance there. Are there any that you're looking at that you feel are very, very crucial to people that they should really consider taking, you know, daily.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
right okay i was actually at the talk but i had to leave at that time what were his i forgot creatine was one obviously omega-3 was his first was his number one and i'm trying to think of what the i was so caught off guard by the creatine being number two at the time that i was just so fascinated i remember what his other three were i remember omega-3 being number one i can't off the top of my head reason for making omega-3 number one
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
I don't. He said it was just the most vital and most important in his view. And I mean, everybody's got their own opinion, I guess. I don't know. I mean, it's important for sure. But I don't know if necessarily I would have had that number one either. But to their own, we're not all going to agree. But yeah. So, OK, so let me ask you this.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
I don't know how into this you are or not, but I'm curious as to your opinion. thoughts on the GLP-1 agonist, because we just know how popular Ozempic is and Terzepatide and everything. Do you have an opinion on those? Do you find a place for them? Do you think they're misused? Do you find merit in them? What is your thought?

Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
To like really take all of their their might and their grit and focus it all on one thing and then make it their passion. And I've noticed that with so many people and I just love that. And I find that you don't necessarily have to have that credential after it. It's the drive and the study and the want and the desire. And I feel like that's what you have.

The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
Yes, and that's just it. It's the mindset and the motive, okay? Just like you said, if you're gonna take it, use it purposefully, understand the means that you need to use it by. You need to still focus on taking in enough protein and accommodating your diet and not letting it take advantage of your life and then being dependent on it.

I'm going to shift. I got one more peptide question for you and then I want to shift focus. Are there any that you prefer that you've used or have you kind of stayed away from them personally?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
It's a slippery slope and people abuse it and they think they're going to get the world out of it. And I'm not a big fan either. I've always kind of been that way. I was going to ask you about Tessa Moreland because that one is one that has become quite a bit more popular and a lot more people are using. But BPC-157 is by far and away the most popular.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
I use a cream of BPC-157 and TB-500 that is so effective that I love personally. But I was curious before I move on, what did you think of the GHK-CU? Because I'm just getting ready to start that myself. And so I'm curious as to your experience. Yeah.

Yeah. Your body is going to get used to it. You will desensitize to these things. Not to mention that you don't know exactly what the long term ramifications are or abusing some of these things. There's just not enough to know. I have GHK-CU capsules right now that I'm going to try. So I'll let you know how the effect is on those as opposed to an injection.

So I posted this on one of your posts that we were going to get into this and I want to get into it. It's not really my area, but it is yours. And I want to discuss this because I'm curious and I want to educate people. So it was great. something you had posted about the pill and the effects that it could have on possibly causing cancer and other things like that. So could we get into that?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!

Well, and a lot of doctors, they're so busy in their practice or they're so kind of just get into this routine or they learn their stuff in their books and that's it. They don't do these dives into everything daily. They just don't. They're general practitioners.

And I'm not trying to throw shade because there's good doctors out there for sure, but there's a lot more bad ones than there are good ones. And the good ones, you'll find it like alternative. They've gone their own way. They've started their own clinics, their own alternative medicine clinics. And I've spoken to so many and they tell me the same thing.

We left because we couldn't take the lies and the dishonesty and the pressure because, you know, the insurance companies and I'll give you a little insight onto this, which I'm sure you're already well aware of is the doctors will write prescriptions. But like for me, I got diagnosed with a high LP little a score and they just want to put you on a stat in this stat. And that when I know in in

Total reality that all that does is increase my LP little a. It does nothing to help it. It does nothing at all. And crushing my LDL is not the answer. And when I wanted PCSK9 inhibitors, they won't write me the scripts because they have pressure from insurance companies that if you write those and you don't write for statins, we'll drop you. Literally fucking drop you.

Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
So, I mean, not everybody has the connections I have to get to the right doctors to write me the scripts. So what do you do? or the education to know. So they're just putting you on these things that are actually hurting you, that have nothing to do with your actual cause.

Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
And so I just think people need to understand and be aware that sometimes I don't wanna say, because doctors have a very vital role in things they do, like especially surgeries, or they're like, you and I couldn't do that stuff. But when it comes to this kind of depth,

Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
I take everything a lot different than I may have 10 years ago from from people like you and I like I really listen and I really dig deep and learn from it. So I just want like that credibility. You have to look at who you're talking to and how passionate they are and where they're coming from and then look into even what we're saying, too, if you'd like.

Yes. You know, I gritted my teeth when you said that about asking questions, because I have been saying that now for like four or five years when they started this nonsense about you can't ask questions. And I believe that everything that we have learned over time and are founded on is about asking questions. We wouldn't have any technologies. We wouldn't have any medicines.

No. The science changes every day. There's a there's a way it changes. And if we don't ask and question it, where are we going? Well, I mean, that that to me. So I say this and you tell me what for credibility wise, if I come to you and say, I'm in, I am wondering about this, this study that you put out on Kellogg's, which we're going to get into.

Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
If you get angry and start, you know, getting uptight and mumbling your words and telling me you grew up in a middle-class family instead of answering the question, I know you're full of shit, you know? And so it's so frustrating. So I'm so glad you pointed that out is what I'm saying.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
I think that's where that brings us to now. And I'm curious because I have said this to my wife and I posted it that the cancelers are now being canceled. So there's too many of us now. And now we have what I would say is the ability to be at the forefront of this because I don't know how much time we're going to have in terms of how everything's being ran now after this election.

And some people may not want to hear that. And it's surely too bad because the facts are the facts are the facts and they don't lie. And this isn't even a political thing. It's a factual thing. And the facts are that people have been muzzled. People have been vilified. People have been shut down. It's proven. It's not any sort of conspiracy whatsoever. It's all proven.

Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
So my question to you is this. How do you feel about our opportunity moving forward and how is your confidence level in terms of everything that like RFK has promised and President Trump has promised? Because I feel very positive. I felt like the biggest wave of relief and I felt like it was such a landslide that people really said enough is enough is enough.

So why don't we start just with your background a little bit, because I was blessed enough to stumble upon you and I was fascinated immediately by your content. But what brought you into this realm, like the biohacking realm of talent agency? What is it that drove you down this route?

Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
And I think, too, we don't know actually like what was being done without social media and the ability to voice and what we were being lied to or not. We don't know. I mean, people will say, oh, it's gotten so worse. It's gotten so worse. But how do we know that? How do we know the media wasn't controlled before? I don't know that. I have no way to prove that.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
So I don't know what we've been brainwashed with or what we haven't. But what I do know is this, is that there's far more people like you and I that are done, that have a platform, that aren't scared to use it any longer. And we're not going to hold back. It's not a right and a left thing. It's really a common sense thing. And it's a moral thing. That's all it is.

Exactly. I never even I'm not saying it doesn't exist because there's always going to be people that don't like you for a certain reason. It's not necessarily just skin color. It's just whatever the reason. But fuck sake. Like, I guess for most of us, that stuff, you don't even think about it. All I care about is the quality of the person I'm talking to and their morals.

It's that I want to stress because I think my annoyance is not with the person asking the question. It's with the people that put it into their heads that it's like a one trick pony answer. Oh yeah, that's fair. That's fair. I know that idea and that concept and it pisses me off because it's just not accurate. It's what you just said is what I agree with.

Is that every single person is different and it's an ongoing change as you age and as your body adapts to certain things. And I think that if more people like yourself and myself got that word out and didn't sell this, you know, because people try to do scammy things or sell this thing that just doesn't exist. And it's constant change.

I agree. I spent, you know, and I told you this before, when I started YouTube videos, it was more on the steroid education and that type of thing. And that was my background. And I was more really trying to get people to not do them, really, and explain all of the problems. But then if you're gone, here's how to do it properly. But, you know, I...

Episode #5 with Don Saladino! The evolution of the fitness industry, the role of coaches vs. influencers, understanding individual needs in fitness and diet, the importance of data and fitness tracking, becoming a celebrity trainer and MORE!!
And so what I always tell people is this, and I'll see what you think about this, and we can talk about supplements, not really steroids, but I always tell people it's, I think that in conclusion, when you're looking at results for you and I or whoever, I would put diet almost 70 to 75% training 2025 and supplements or steroid or performance enhancing, maybe five, maybe, but really around diet and training.

You took the word right out of my mouth. I was going to say the difficult thing every day is consistency because anybody can get there. But once you get there, then what do you do with it? Right. And that's the hard part. Diet is the hardest thing to stay consistent with. I think training is far easier to stay consistent with than diet.

Episode #5 with Don Saladino! The evolution of the fitness industry, the role of coaches vs. influencers, understanding individual needs in fitness and diet, the importance of data and fitness tracking, becoming a celebrity trainer and MORE!!
I agree. And to touch on what you say, you know, the best parts of my day are, one, first thing in the morning, I get up and go walk. I'm a spiritual guy, so I do my prayers, but I walk. Sure. Walk 25, 30 minutes. That just starts my day. And then the next best times of my day are when I'm training.

Because you feel good, you feel free, and you're pushing yourself and you're learning about yourself and what to do and what not to do. And then you can help others, too. And it's amazing. But I look at you, too. Look, I think that Brian's a little kooky, too. But he's really trying to learn different things that could possibly help others expand their lifespan. And maybe it is not.

Like you just said, the people that pushed the envelopes that were thought to be crazy are the ones that figured everything out that we have now. I mean, falling in line is never going to get you anywhere. It's just not. I know. I know. I can't show you that concept, but you know, hey. Everybody's going to live different and people are going to have their opinions and that's fine.

I try to stay away from the negativity as much as I can. And I try to learn. You know, I always say you can never know too much, but you can always know too little. So I take people like you, people I respect. And I look, I try to give what I can, but I also know that the only way to advance is to take time to learn from everybody.

So I want to get some of your diet thoughts, some of your nutrition beliefs. And look, we were talking, things are subjective to the individual. Some people do better with lower high carb, lower high fat. But do you have like a... Do you have a belief in your mind, like where you focused, you shift more towards like more protein intake?

It's hard. I'll tell you this. It's hard for everybody, even a coach. I mean... I've battled like an eating disorder dysmorphia for my whole, basically, since I was 11. That's when I started studying nutrition because of the issues I had. And, you know,

even what i coach which falls in line pretty pretty close to what you are i have a little i like a little lower carb but not eliminate the car right but i sure similar and uh just so you can have some data on me i have done this just destroyed myself with the amount of training and the under eating and i'm talking 1700 calories a day when i'm burning like 35 to 4000 with the work tough and

Episode #5 with Don Saladino! The evolution of the fitness industry, the role of coaches vs. influencers, understanding individual needs in fitness and diet, the importance of data and fitness tracking, becoming a celebrity trainer and MORE!!
super low fat when I know how important fat is like no fat just peanut butter so recently I finally got to the point where I was like I can't do this anymore I just can't take it and I went from like $1,700 to $2,700 and I increased my fats from like $1,500 wow more cut and more shredded than since I was taking PEDs it's amazing I went from feeling like maybe a 30 every day to like 100 you know every day energy
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #5 with Don Saladino! The evolution of the fitness industry, the role of coaches vs. influencers, understanding individual needs in fitness and diet, the importance of data and fitness tracking, becoming a celebrity trainer and MORE!!
attitude, fleet, Everything. And so basically I'm doing like a 45 protein, 35 fat, maybe 15 carbs, maybe 20. And maybe I'm going to try to work on increasing the carbs. But my point is, is what you said, you can kill your metabolism and ruin yourself by under eating. You're not going to lose weight. And if you do, it's going to look bad. And I was just miserable.

I will. You know what? Look, you were talking about, you know what I noticed? is that you never see, like in these documentaries and things, you never hear two things. You never hear them talking about blood panels, and you never hear them talking about sustainability. You know? And it's frustrating because those are the two most important things, is how does your blood panel look?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #5 with Don Saladino! The evolution of the fitness industry, the role of coaches vs. influencers, understanding individual needs in fitness and diet, the importance of data and fitness tracking, becoming a celebrity trainer and MORE!!
Because something might work initially, but your blood panel might be thrown off. And how sustainable is this to do long-term? Because if it's not sustainable, and you literally fall off the wagon, a lot of people... end up gaining more weight back or hurting themselves in the process of doing this. And it's very frustrating, man. It really is.

Absolutely. I totally, totally agree with you on that. So when we were talking about, one of the things, honestly, and I know I'm getting older, but I look forward to Sundays with my wife going to Whole Foods and picking up new things and testing out new things and spending time over at the fish counter and learning about new things. But I have a question in terms of like protein intake.

So I was actually, I was interviewing JJ Virgin a couple of days ago. And one of the things we were talking about was she gets all of these people that will say, I just don't know how to get that X amount of protein.

So I remember just like the new gyms and like hammer strength just came here, for example, and we're gone to what you're able to do now with online and everything. I mean, I can't imagine what that's been like for you going through the evolution.

and uh i think that's i think that's the right way to to uh to approach it it's tough because you know we we do and and and i should i'm not saying anything on people because i do this too we we're in kind of an instant gratification type of of lifetime right now and that's kind of what people want but it just doesn't work that way and it takes time and i think it takes hearing like what you said to people is look you can do it but you can't just go try to do it all at once and it's hard to to convey that but i think

the more we try to do that in a more rational way, like what you explained. What you said sounds very common sense about it's just math, but it's not. It's not. I've never even broke it down that way, and it's so common sense to me, but it takes me here from somebody like you to go, well, shit, it's that simple to explain. I mean, it's basic.

Episode #5 with Don Saladino! The evolution of the fitness industry, the role of coaches vs. influencers, understanding individual needs in fitness and diet, the importance of data and fitness tracking, becoming a celebrity trainer and MORE!!
I agree. And I'm a big data guy. And look, I mean, I'm well in tune and I couldn't be more in tune. I still keep track of things daily. So Every once in a while, I have a day where it's just so packed and I just like a meal or I miss maybe 100 calories or something. But I keep the data just so I can go back and see and remember.

Episode #5 with Don Saladino! The evolution of the fitness industry, the role of coaches vs. influencers, understanding individual needs in fitness and diet, the importance of data and fitness tracking, becoming a celebrity trainer and MORE!!
And like I have a lumen and I'm testing all the time and I have a CGM. I'm monitoring my glucose. I'm a data guy. But I think not everybody's going to do that. But I think the more data you have and the more you keep, the more interested you get because you'll take a look at it and then you'll learn more. wow, this really does make a difference.

Episode #5 with Don Saladino! The evolution of the fitness industry, the role of coaches vs. influencers, understanding individual needs in fitness and diet, the importance of data and fitness tracking, becoming a celebrity trainer and MORE!!
Because a lot of times, you know, like for instance, like for me with supplements, people go, oh, it doesn't matter what time of day or whatever, but it does. It might not make...

a million percent difference but if you want to maximize what you're doing it really does make a difference and i think that just slowly getting into it you'll you'll appreciate it more you'll learn more the more data that you really get at least that's how i feel i don't know that's what you're into right like i like i've worked i actually worked for lumen for at least two years right i was yeah i did a lot of work with them good product right um but um

Obviously, that says a lot about the level that you're at, which I already know without you having any of that. And I think most people would know just your credibility alone results. But, you know, on in terms of that, we don't have to get into anything personal with it because I know that private. But, you know, how did that happen? What struck that for you?

It's just a testament to the trust that you have because those, not that everyday people don't trust you because they do for sure, but when somebody that's their livelihood is putting that into your hands. Yeah. I mean, that has to be gratifying to you. Not so much that it's a celebrity, but just the trust that's being put into you, I think.

So, well, and I never talked to you about you playing college baseball. So it's kind of similar. I can't believe how much I relate to you because I was, I played college basketball and then I, that's how I got into the, you know, more fitness. And I got I started studying blood panels and everything because of the baseball steroid era.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #5 with Don Saladino! The evolution of the fitness industry, the role of coaches vs. influencers, understanding individual needs in fitness and diet, the importance of data and fitness tracking, becoming a celebrity trainer and MORE!!
And that's how I started researching PEDs and everything that I was doing videos on beforehand and all of that. And that's what fascinated me. So it's wild how similar, because I didn't know the route. So let's go back to your college. So- Where did you go to school and what did you major in when you were?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #5 with Don Saladino! The evolution of the fitness industry, the role of coaches vs. influencers, understanding individual needs in fitness and diet, the importance of data and fitness tracking, becoming a celebrity trainer and MORE!!
I like your methodologies, but we all have a backstory. I'm curious, how young were you and what motivated you to go this route? Wow.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #5 with Don Saladino! The evolution of the fitness industry, the role of coaches vs. influencers, understanding individual needs in fitness and diet, the importance of data and fitness tracking, becoming a celebrity trainer and MORE!!
No. And I totally agree with you. I started bartending at 18 and I did situations that I lied about my age to get the job because here you have to be anyone. And I agree with you because it's good to, first of all, it's good to see what it's like to wait on people and to serve other people and what it's like.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #5 with Don Saladino! The evolution of the fitness industry, the role of coaches vs. influencers, understanding individual needs in fitness and diet, the importance of data and fitness tracking, becoming a celebrity trainer and MORE!!
And then maybe being a better understanding how to treat people, you know, because you've been there. And it does develop grit and personality. So I totally agree with you. So when I was in school and I want to compare this to you because I was in college in 2000 to, you know, on and they started doing more exercise sciences, physiology.

Episode #5 with Don Saladino! The evolution of the fitness industry, the role of coaches vs. influencers, understanding individual needs in fitness and diet, the importance of data and fitness tracking, becoming a celebrity trainer and MORE!!
So I I started taking nutrition, physiology, kinesiology, and then I decided, you know. I can get all these certifications, so I better get the business because I'm going to run a business regardless of what I do. So I did NASM. Back then, it was like ACE, NASM, and a couple, and that was it. Is that kind of the route you went, or what did you do for your- Yeah.

I'm with you 100%. It just shows initiative like you're digging deeper. Yeah, that's exactly it. I agree 100%. Now, I don't think, and I think you'll attest to this, I don't think people understand what it takes in terms of what you do to constantly be studying so many different things that change.

I mean, we could just sit here and rap about the diet changes and things that we've seen change from the year 2000 to now, and we could talk for like six months. Yeah, you wouldn't stop. I mean, we'll go from low fat to low carb to this, to that, to this, to that. And I know for myself, I always go to bed three, four hours after my wife.

I have a question about BPC-157. So I have a very good friend and he is in like the, he works for a company that he actually develops Vesepa, which is a PCSK9 inhibitor, if anybody doesn't know, for cholesterol and LP little a and things like that. So he was telling me that from what they've found with BPC-157, and I'm curious to your thoughts on this, this is a possible side effect.

He said that BPC works through angiogenesis and it creates new blood vessel pathways to promote healing. But he said that you can run into serious problems if you inadvertently open up a blood flow pathway to the wrong spot. and accidentally wake up a sleeping giant, which could be a tumor. Is that something that you've seen or come across, or do you think that that is just...

All right, everybody, welcome back to the Dylan Gemelli podcast. I have a very, very special guest today. She is very, very well known in the biohacking community. She hosts the Longevity with Natalie Nidham podcast, and she does a little bit of everything. I can't wait to talk about it. So many different things. We're going to talk about peptides.

A hundred percent. Okay, cool. So, and I think that's what it was kind of boiling down to is it would exacerbate maybe an existing tumor or something that was there that you didn't know of, but that, I think that's more theory than anything, like you said, so. I don't know. I've never seen anything about that myself either. I've never seen one person report it. I've never seen any of it.

But I guess in theory, it makes sense. So I guess it's more of an assumption than anything.

I agree. It got me thinking plenty. That's why I'm asking for sure and bringing it up because I want to know experts' thoughts on it. So, okay. So I always work closely online to study what the research chemical companies are finding that their top sellers are. And BPC has taken over as the top seller for peptides for the past two or three years now. And it's not even close.

I would say four or five of the top selling companies and they all tell me the same thing. But I wanted to ask you this because what's really quickly become one of the, like the top two or three is there's this big craze on NAD right now, which I'm sure.

I'm, I'm, I'm including those out of the conversation. So I'm, I'm taking GLP ones out cause we're going to have a different discussion on that. Yeah. Those are, those are on a different level and everybody wants those. So I'm, I'm excluding those right now. So I would say NAD is one of the most popular ones currently. That's kind of taken off in the past year, six months to a year.

And I've had, I've had very differing opinions on NAD from some of like the people that I hold an extremely high regard, like Dr. Dr. Europe, who I just, I hold her an extreme high regard. She just does not like it. He's awesome. Yeah, she's the best.

That's unlikely to happen. Well. I don't really ask a lot of people's opinions when I run something or anything. And I went to her because I had a stack laid out that I had on hand ready to start. So it was MOTC, GHKCU, copper peptide.

And ipamirelin and epitalon and NAD. And she's like. Oh, you're not going to like my answer. And I said, I said, you, I said, don't forget who you're talking to here. I said, I, I, you, you tell me what I, what I need to hear, not what I want to hear. So she starts laughing and she's just got on the thing about NAD. So I was curious your thoughts.

I hold I hold people and, you know, I don't I throw around intelligent very lightly because that I don't like to throw around compliments too much. I've got her like on the top tier level of. who I respect and who I will actually go to. I mean, so yeah, we're definitely on the same page with her. Um, so I want to get over to the GLP ones, but I did want your thought on one other peptide.

Well, two actually, um, with BPC one five seven, like we were talking about, generally speaking, a lot of people stack it with TB 500. Um, How do you feel about that? I know that's what I do and I find it very, very effective.

And that That's another thing. So we're talking about combos. And so I, well, you said IPA Morellon and CJC 1295. Those are the other two that are like peanut butter and jelly that everybody runs together at the same time. There are, you can run them separate, just like you can TB 500 and, and

and bpc 157 but you're always you're getting the best of what you could do stacking them together i was going to tell you i use a bpc tb 500 gel now that's research chemical site but i i absolutely i love it so much as opposed because i get sick of injecting i'm on trt and i you know i've injected so many years i don't use steroids anymore but obviously i have and the ejection gets old.

You know, I had that with melanotan too. Every time I've ran it, I've either been able uncontrollably, and I'm talking small doses, throwing up every time I inject it and being very, very, very like succumbing to illness, like colds and coughs.

We need people like you, though, that will be honest about it, that everything is not rainbows and unicorns. There are side effects. There are problems. And you have to always listen to your body first because you and I both know I can tell you that you should get this benefit at this dose and whatever the case may be. And it's the same thing that I have done with like people using steroids.

I don't know how estrogen prone you are, for example. I don't know if your body is just going to hate this at a certain dose. I don't know if your body is going to metabolize this as well as somebody else does. I have no idea. All I can do is give you a guideline, but it's up to you to do your blood work and to listen to your body, period.

Oh. I do blood work every three months. Now, people are like, I can't do it. You can. If your health is a priority, you certainly can. You can do it at least twice a year. But every time you use a cycle of anything, I tell everybody and I want your thoughts on this pre, mid and post pre. So I have a baseline mid. So I know how you're responding and post to see how you recover. That's the minimum.

It's amazing. So I want to go to the GLP-1 route, but I want to ask you about one. This is how we're going to transition there. I'm going to go with a fat burning peptide first that I have found personally to be very, very effective and people are really flocking to it. And then I want to transition that to GLP-1. So what is your thoughts on tessamorelin? I have seen that

I found it right when it kind of was coming out because I was I'm always looking at fat loss things that because people are always looking for that. And so it's always high on my list. But I've watched that go from being something that was just looked at for fat loss to, oh, we can lose fat on this. We can maintain muscle. We can get stronger. We can do this, this, this.

And it's tolerated really well. What do you how do you feel about it? I haven't run into a lot of people having problems with it other than the cost of it. So what is your feeling on that?

I think, um, that with bodybuilders, they still tend to lean towards it because they do find they can hold on to muscle. But general public, certainly they're not going to go for that now. They're going for the GLP-1s, which is where I want to shift to with you now. Here, let's just keep it very basic and broad before we get into any science on it. What's your opinion on them?

Me too. What do you think are the common problems with them? I'll tell you what I think, and then I'm curious as to your thoughts. I think that people misuse them, misdose them, overdo them. I think that the microdosing is the way to go. All of the best people that I have talked to that I find to be the most intelligent stand behind the microdosing aspect.

They find benefits at normal dosing, but I think in my view, just from what I've observed from people is that they often misuse them and they go too far and don't really understand what they're even doing with them, I think, to a point and understanding like, The amount of muscle that you can lose and the negative effects and what they actually do.

Yeah, you can't. There's no there's no possible way that any any person with a functioning brain can think you're going to lose 40 and 50 pounds and not lose a little bit of muscle. It's just not possible.

No, but you have to tear down to rebuild in the first place. You have to if this is just what you said is perfect. This is a marathon. It's not a sprint. It goes in stages. And if you're going to do this the right way, you have to go through X process first to go back to Y to Z. And you can't circumvent that. I don't care what you're taking. You can't. It's just like with steroids. You take trend.

I'm a boots to the ground guy. And I'm I'm in a way it's good where I come from and my background because I get to see people try shit, you know, because I'm not willing to do that. So I get that. But at the same time, like you said, it's still phase three. I need to see way more on it to make judgment one way or another. I just know the strength of it or what it's supposed to be.

I agree. And people have been using BPC for well over a decade that I can trace back to that I know for sure. I ran TB500 when it first came out. It was like 2014 at the research site.

Yeah. And I was blown away the first time I used it. I used that before BPC157. And I was like, okay, all right, we're onto something here. Now I was using MK two, eight, six, six for healing with it. Um, but TB blows that away. That's, that's a totally different animal.

But where do you see a lot of fat loss with people when they lose weight or gain weight? You all, you look, you see it in their face. You always do one way or another. That's one of the first places that you see it because you can hide stuff in clothes.

I agree. I had this discussion with you a little bit when we talked before about, you know, when I started, it was 2011 and I got introduced to research chemical companies and I was supposed to be marketing for them. And I said, OK, I'll do it, you know, at the time. Well, sure. Why not? But I need to learn and understand.

And there was about seven or eight that you could choose from to buy back then. And that's it. It was your basic GHRPs. Um, Ipamorelin, GHRP2-6, Cermorelin, Melanotan-2. There was not a lot to choose from and it was only looked at and focused on how are we going to get bigger off of these? How are we going to gain muscle? Oh, they're not as strong as steroids.

So they're worth, they're not worth shit, you know, that type of deal. So I had to overcome that. Cause I was a big SARMs guy was my thing and peptides was secondary. And I never, I'll be perfectly honest. I never gave peptides like the due respect that they have today because I was so caught up in, this is where I was a fool and I learned. so caught up into this. Oh, they're not build muscle.

They're just weak. And there was the slight annoyance of a lot of those having to pin them multiple times or, you know, not, not eat food around IPA Morellon and CJC 1295 or HGH fragment. Those, that was the other one. You can't eat around those. And it's just a hindrance and,

And you're like, dude, what do you mean? Yes. And we're not exactly fasting back at those times. It's not a thing. And it's hard to fast when you're working out three and four hours a day.

What do you feel is in terms of and I think I kind of know where you're going to go with this, but the validity of them, because, you know, it's it's considered an alternative medicine and it's almost a lot of them aren't approved their research chemicals or their shady gray areas.

Yeah. Yeah. It is. And that's the thing, too. I really get upset with the lack of comprehensive testing, and they don't look into anything. So what you're saying, what you do, and what my passion is, I say root cause. I mean, it's funny because that was thrown around politically, but that's the actual... Digging into that and finding it is what it's all about.

So what you do and what you believe in and what I believe in is... preventing, not just treating, right? And then if something does need treated, actually finding out what it is as opposed to just going, oh, here's the answer. Oh, here's the answer. Because you get that five to seven minute visit and it's next, next, next, next. It's like getting your hair cut at Great Cliffs, man.

Like, you know what I mean? It's the same type of deal. Okay. All right. Now, we were talking about the T3 and the T4. Now, let's talk about the T3 first because you brought up side effects and things that were sad and BS. So my thing with T3 with bodybuilders was because it was being misused. I told him it'll eat your muscle away because you're abusing it. You're doing this.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
But if it's and I'd say run it clinically properly, I'm all for it. Talk about. T3 in general, what exactly is it? What does it do? Like what's its function and how does it actually help the thyroid in general?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
That's, I want more. I want to leave it for me. You saw me write notes. I don't generally do that on a podcast. So here's another question. So When you run T3, do you need... So, for instance, when you're running testosterone, you know, it shuts down your natural testosterone production.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
And then if you're trying to recover it, if you run testosterone too long, you're not going to ever really recover. You can try to run Clomid, Novodex, all of that. But in reality, if we're being honest... It's going to be a hell of a time. Is there any kind of like post-cycle therapy required with T3 if you have to run it too long?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
Will it shut down your natural production or does your body just start producing it? Or how does that work?

All right, everybody, welcome back to the Dylan Gibelli podcast. I hope you're ready to have some fun today because my guest and I like to get into some pretty good conversations that are extremely fun. And she's going to bring a ton of education. She is a functional medicine doctor, but is best known as the thyroid fixer. And she is a good friend of mine.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
Yeah, I've been so anti-T3. And then part of the problem is, as I'm sure you know, is that when people run T3, the automatic thing is to run clenbuterol with it. And that's a whole nother story in itself. But like you said, when you see that weight gain after, it is the combination of exactly what you said with the thyroid issue.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
And then also coming off clenbuterol, which we both know is heart damaging. So you certainly stay on that long term at those doses. I mean, and so you're going to gain that weight back too.

and probably more so combining those two together is like the biggest i i can't tell you the battles and how much money i've turned down for people to want me to coach them on using those two and i just refuse i just won't do it the money the conscious the guilty conscience not worth it at all to me so thanks for that explanation because that was super beneficial

So I'm curious, and if you don't have the exact statistic, that's fine. But what age do most people, when they start to have thyroid problems, let me ask you this, is it more prevalent for men or women or is it both? And then what age do you tend to start to see like the decline or the problem starting?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
Okay. So in terms of the causes for a thyroid problem, what are your typical causes and are there any ways to avoid that? Let's just throw out an example. Like, you know, for a lot of things, it's always diet related or exercise related. Does that fall into this category or no?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
So Hashimoto's, what causes that? Is that just like a genetic hereditary thing or is there something that actually causes that?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
Thought so. Well, okay. So is it a curable disease or is that a lifelong thing?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
Yes. Yes. It's all subjective. And there is, it really comes down to that. And that's just like in all aspects of life with pretty much everything that we do. I think it's important. And I'm glad you stressed that. Here's something that I'm wondering. In terms of side effects and definition, I think, and just to keep it simple, so we've got hyper and hypoactive thyroid.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
One is overactive, one is underactive. Are the symptoms and side effects similar or are they differentiating factors there? And then is one more treatable or better or worse than the other one?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
Okay. All right. So with the hyper, would you see like an increase in blood pressure too? Okay. I kind of figured that. So, okay. Well, then taking that into consideration, is there one that you find to be more common than the other or is it just kind of,
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
That sounds like a nightmare. It really does. OK, so being I want to talk about the hormone aspect of this then. So would hormones play a role in causing thyroid problems? Let's say like somebody with low testosterone, for example, or somebody that is using steroids or abusing testosterone too high of testosterone. Would these have effects on your thyroid?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
So theoretically, if a male has Hashimoto's, they would feasibly need to be not only on TRT, but also T3, T4 or some kind of steroid treatment.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
So let me ask you this then, could you theoretically start with the thyroid, treat it, get it better, and then see testosterone function improve without doing TRT?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
Or would you, and I know this could depend on the age of the person, I understand that, but let's say like with your person, you're talking about in their 20s, instead of putting them on TRT and then screwing them over forever, could we address it without doing that?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
No, but you do have some hope there. And so my thing is, and one of the things that I've talked to with a lot of the people that I find to be quite brilliant is that they...
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
get people that have a lower testosterone number lower free test number but they don't simply just go okay you need trt we start to dig and see what the cause is first see if we can get around using trt you know first and that's something that's a marker and what i'm stressing here to people listening is your thyroid could be a marker for you to look at before you just go think you need trt
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
Right.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
Everybody thinks that it's just that they're just got the shorthand of the stick when they get low testosterone. And that's just not always the case. Sometimes it is and sometimes it's not. So I'm glad that you covered that and pointed that out. OK, so I'm going to stay on thyroid, but shift gears at the same time. So.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
You and I have had several discussions about GLPs, and my assumption here is that you probably get people that have, like, an underactive thyroid that assume, the people that may not understand that, oh, I'm going to take a GLP and lose weight. Okay, so let's look at this in a couple sections.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
One, are they going to find that something like osepic or trisepatite is not nearly effective if they have an underactive thyroid? And two, do... Does taking either of those or a GLP have any effect on the thyroid in terms of improving it or worsening it?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
I don't want to say that I've developed an obsession with it because that's not it in terms of my studies. But after sitting in on some of these conferences that turned out into all out wars, my fascination and like my in-depth reading and analyzing the facts from the people that are really full of shit. So what I'm finding is you said for the most part, and now I'm actually coaching people on it.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
So I'm taking real data because I'm so mad.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
yeah i mean even with the other benefits i certainly don't want to start making my possibility of losing weight as hard as i've worked to fix my diet but i'm monitoring people and seeing you know the people that highly respect like you and like several other people that you and i both respect that are so strong and firm on the microdosing aspect i am very careful in my personal recommendations and i'm curious about you um
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
In terms of running it higher, unless it's like totally therapeutically needed, because you and I both know most of the people that use it don't actually medically need it. I mean, let's just be real here. There are plenty of people that do need it, but
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
Do you find that people that don't need it run into problems as they start to go a little too high on the dosing and what you've observed or heard or been around? And are you finding that people have trouble when they discontinue using it, keeping the weight off?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
All day long. That's beautiful. And not to say this is going to make you a mass monster because you and I both know this, but one of the things, and I recommend this whether you're taking a GLP or not, is the addition of creatine and running that with a microdose will certainly help alleviate things. And one of the things that... I sat in at the A4M.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
Me and Queenie went to one of the conferences on GLPs and I have a whole thing of slides I saved from one of the doctors there talking about a diet on GLPs that I'm analyzing and I'm going to put together some content for. So I'll let you know when I I've got more detail to get into it. I'm working on it, you know, in my spare time.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
But I'm going to do a possible diets that could alleviate muscle loss and atrophy and things like that. Because, you know, losing muscle, I understand that when you're losing 100 pounds, you're going to have to sacrifice your muscle loss. Sure.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
When you have this mindset or idea that, oh, I don't care about how much muscle I lose. I freak out. I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, hold on. That'll kill you. That's ruin your quality of life and it's going to short your lifespan.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
So I think that that's something that a lot of like these clinics that sell it or whatever, they need to address this and educate their patients on beforehand because losing muscle is extremely detrimental. You know, when you're talking mass quantities. Yeah.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
And I don't know if you have any other hacks, but I think certainly creatine is something that you would want to add even in a microdose, unless, you know, just to preserve that muscle and the methodology of training, I would be more on like hypertrophy type of training. So the volume is more like eight to 12 reps, 70, 80% of your max.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
So you're keeping that kind of muscle growth going, just conscientious things like that. I don't know. You have any other thing you recommend or you've seen?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
Yes, yes.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
exactly and you know one of the things that i i just discussed i was talking to jj virgin about it she said that the things that she gets a lot is i don't know how to get the you know x amount of protein i don't know how you do it and i simply stated like for instance before you and i started i had a 12 ounce piece of salmon now that might be big to some people because of the fat content but to me it's i'm starving still but 72 grams of protein in one setting that fast
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
You know what I mean? And I'm like, it's not that hard. Four ounces of chicken, you're like 26 grams. So it's X amount. So my point is, is it's not that difficult, you know, to get that kind of protein at all. Okay. So I wanted to get into, because you wanted to talk about T2 a little bit. So let's get into that. What is it? Why is it important? And what's its function?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
So you don't really need a prescription for it then?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
I think we're good for at least four more, hopefully a lot longer than that. By that time, I hope then it sticks and that with the amount of people that are so pro, which I'm sure they will be. We won't have any issues, but we'll see. Okay, sweet. So let's talk about your supplement line. I've checked it out, but that's not for me to explain. That's for you to explain.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
So tell us a little bit about your product line. What are some of the areas that you're addressing? They're obviously thyroid health, but you talked about metabolism health. Are there any other areas there? And how long have you had the product line out?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
Here's the deal. Here's the honest to truth deal when it comes to natural testosterone boosters. There's obviously some that are full of shit and some that actually do something. You're going to run a battle with the bros that are only used to steroids that think that if it's not increasing your testosterone number a thousand points that it just doesn't work. And that's just not true.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
Now, if you're expecting a miracle and trying to gain six or 700 points, then you just don't understand how it works. However, They absolutely can make a difference. How significant depends on how severe your hypogonadal condition is. But for a female? Shit, yes. Absolutely. That is so perfect. Unless there's something so severe going on that the only way around it.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
But certainly for a man, there is benefit. There is help. And you're using proven ingredients that I know there's studies on that I've seen work. You just have to temper your expectations and understand. When we're talking about the bros, we're talking about a niche audience and you're not targeting them. Nobody really gives a shit because they don't care about anything other than getting big.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
So it doesn't matter. But if we're keeping it fact and we're keeping it real, expectations just like with anything else it where it's at but i think that's phenomenal for the women especially because 20 points i mean those ingredients certainly can do that all day long and make a difference on how you feel well let's talk about that so
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
Are you finding, because I know that you dig a lot deeper and a lot of doctors don't. I happen to have spent a lot of time with women. I'm a mama's boy. I'm very close with my wife and my stepdaughter. And I just, I take women's health so serious. You know, I had, when I was starting doing this, I had so many women come to me like, why don't you do more and focus more on women?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
I'm like, shit, because I just don't know them. You know, so I said, you know what, I'm going to study, study, study, study. But I don't you know, it's better coming from a woman doctor to talk about like what you experience with because I'm sure you have way more women patients than I ever dream of. How prevalent is a low testosterone issue and how serious really can it be for a woman?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
And I'm so excited for our conversation today. So my friends, this is Dr. Amy Horniman. Welcome, Amy.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
Okay. So, well, a couple of things then, since we're talking about that. So You know, it's troubling to me that a lot of women are so misinformed when it comes to testosterone. And I'll bring it up. And then there's always this fear. You know, it's scary. Like, you know, I don't want to look at that or do that. How could that help me? Why would that be?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
It's kind of like a lot of women that think if they go lift weights, oh, I'm going to get so big. And it's like, yeah, like one or two pounds of lean muscle, even as a man, you're really doing something like if you're keeping it and gaining it. So how do you overcome that? Because I'm sure you get that a lot when you bring it up. You have to. I mean, because I have a select few that I speak with.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
They have this utter fear. Yeah. What do you do? I mean, how do you handle that?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
Yeah. It's just, it's like anything else. If you used properly when it's needed, it's got its extreme benefits. Otherwise. Yeah. So you brought up progesterone. Let's touch on that a little bit. What is it in simple form for everybody? And why is it so important to a female?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
So in saying that, which makes so much sense, and I'm so glad you said that, when a woman starts to experience premenopause even, I think it would be, and you tell me if I'm wrong, I think it would be extremely important to start examining your hormones, looking at them, seeing what type of effect it's having and addressing it now before you let it get so bad that it's such a disaster and mess to fix.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
So we're going to yell at my wife when we're done since she has somebody in the house that tells her constantly to check all of this shit and doesn't listen to me. So you and I are going to handle that when we're done because this is a house where every time something's wrong with Dylan, everybody's on his ass and Dylan goes and checks everything.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!

I know she's in there and can hear me right now. We're having an intervention. As far as certainly when we're done. Okay, so you know where my wheelhouse is. We talked about it on your podcast, and so I want to talk to you about it. Let's talk about your opinion. We'll just briefly touch on peptides a little bit because I know it's something that you do have some interest in.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
Let's talk about, first of all, do you prescribe them? Can you prescribe them? And second of all, what is, do you have experience? And if so, what's your favorite or what's some of the ones you've used that you liked?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
You always can feel free to ask me. I will tell you this, though, that my... Quickly to the top of my list is tesamorelin. Okay. Shit. You know why I love tesamorelin so much is because tesamorelin's main thing is fat loss, but it's so good at preserving and still adding lean muscle. It's like recomposition in a bottle if your diet's right. You know what I mean?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
And of course, anytime something that causes weight loss, you have to accommodate your diet when you're trying to recomp. But everybody's goal in theory would be lose body fat, gain muscle mass. Forget about the scale, because if you're losing body fat, you're you're looking good. You're being more healthy and you're gaining lean muscle in the process, which in turn loses more body. Right.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
So if you look it right, it's very look, it can be done. You don't you can do it without help. But if you have something that really works to your advantage, it makes it a hell of a lot easier. Absolutely. That's one that we're going to have to talk about in the future. And then the GHKU, I've actually been using a cream on my skin. I love it in cream form.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
Yeah. So, you know, I have the capsules and then the cream form. So I'm just working some stuff here. And then I'm working with some Mite Pure now, too. Good. You know, I'm doing everything I can to try to stay in my 30s here. I have a question for you then.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
Like, I'm not going to sit here and act like I have a big, long fact sheet on it. I know it's supposed to generally be termed or used as a replacement for Sir Morellon. Look. Everything right now, they're really trying to develop peptides in general to be able to take an orally in terms of capsule forms. And then they're obviously looking at more like gel like substances.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
And there's a big thing going on right now. All of these formulations, just like, you know, like the old Zempic tablets now and things like that. I will always, always, always preface this by saying the injections when it comes to something like HGH with peptides is always going to be your number one. It's got the most efficacy. It's going to be the best delivery source.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
This particular one that you're talking about, I need more data on to trust it. Just like the Kysotrex for the TRT that's now an oral. I don't use it yet, although like Dr. Urth stands by it a million percent and I respect her out of the building.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
So I have some trust there, but I haven't tried it and I need more data, especially when it comes to it's hard to make a pill or anything in that form without some toxicity added or some kind of alpha alkylation, you know, done to it modification. So I'm... It's supposed to not supposed to affect your liver, but you know, I'm hesitant just because of what I know.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
Um, but I'm always receptive and open to something new and I've seen things done just with that particular one. I don't have enough data yet. I just know bits and pieces of what it's, it's meant to be. You just have to sometimes as, as much as I like to try shit and I know you do sometimes it's better to just wait, you know?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
Yeah. So for you, do you take patients then regularly now? How does that work if somebody wants to be a patient of yours? What are they going to do?

I got several questions on this that we're going to get into real quick because I want to get into the functional doctor aspect of things. But because of what you just said, I think I know the answer, but I want to hear it from you. Why are they only putting people on TV?

It is. I will warn everybody now, if you're sensitive, we are a couple of sailors here on how we talk sometimes. So if you're sensitive, you might want to just stop being weak about it. All right. So, you know, one of the things that I really get into is a lot of wellness, a lot of hormone optimization, a lot of panels, everything.

See, this is the type of shit that I do deal with with cholesterol, with all the people that I coach with cholesterol, where the answer is, let's look at one marker. Let's not look at the comprehensive marker like what we're going to talk about, that I want to talk about, which tests with you a little bit later.

And then do a statin, statin, statin, when in reality, the statin is causing 50,000 other problems and creating new ones for people that don't need it. And so sounds like that's what we're running into here. Now, let me ask you this.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
I'm curious because I don't know the answer to this, but even with my limited knowledge of thyroid, I know how important running them both is and the importance of T3 being used. Now that's for being in the bodybuilding community that I learned that, but still it doesn't matter. I still know it. So is there, is there any issue writing scripts for T3 insurance wise?

Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
Yeah, that's that's what I don't want to be a complete ass. But because I have friends that are regular doctors that are general practitioners, but at the same time, like it's like seriously. And I want to stress and I say this often, that's why they're called a general practitioner, because the knowledge is very general. And you're going to see that everywhere. I.

Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
I want to talk to you about the functional medicine and because I'm in the middle of an integrative health practitioner certification right now and a cellular health coach certification. So I'm curious with what does one have to do to become a functional medicine doctor?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
And if you can just briefly or as easily as possible explain what exactly is a functional medicine doctor and how does it differentiate?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
But one of the things that I'm severely lacking and I am disappointed in myself and I can't wait for your expertise is all about thyroid. But I want to, before we get into that, I want to talk about your background. I know that you were a competitor before. Everybody's kind of got a cool story that gets them into health and everything. So what's your story?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
See, one of the things that troubles me so much and a lot of people that hire me, all they hire me to do is hormone optimization and reading blood panels. getting to the actual cause of things. My problem is, is I don't have the actual credential that you do. And so my curiosity, and I'm sure many that would fall into the same boat that want to lean towards what you do.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
I know you have a master's degree. What is your master's degree? And then how did you utilize that particular, you know, degree to get the doctor title and to where you want to be right now?

Okay. So you've got that basically. Yeah. You've got a lot of experience of training. So yeah. That's what I kind of figured out. I figured it was probably intense. But if you enjoy it, it's not nearly as tough, as intense as some other things, I'm sure.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
Why did you, and why did you pick the thyroid and why did you get into functional medicine?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #7 Featuring Dr. Amie Hornaman, THE THYROID FIXER! The most COMPREHENSIVE Thyroid Analysis Discussion in the Podcast World!
They certainly most certainly can. Absolutely. You know, the thing is, is like, for instance, I send a lot of people in and they like, well, can you just tell me what labs to get? And I'm like, oh, here we go. This is going to be fun. And I'll write like I want your prolactin check or something that's just conventional. And the doctors get pissy and don't want to do it.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #27 Featuring Dr. Dave Rabin! Psychedelic therapy misconceptions, effectiveness and safety, chronic stress implications, shifting from treatment to CURE, ketamine facts, unlocking self awareness, mental health vs. stress and more!
Okay, I'm going to relate this to something. And then I'm going to tell you why I admire your approach and why you're doing it. So for me, I do a lot of hormone optimization. And so I'll get people that will come to me and say, Oh, I'm tired. And you know, and oh, I've got this symptom or that symptom relating it to low testosterone, right? And They so quickly want to jump on TRT.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #27 Featuring Dr. Dave Rabin! Psychedelic therapy misconceptions, effectiveness and safety, chronic stress implications, shifting from treatment to CURE, ketamine facts, unlocking self awareness, mental health vs. stress and more!
And so I'm going to compare that to with you. I'm assuming that a lot of people want to jump on a medication. But what I try to do and what I can see that you try to do is we try to find the root cause and fix that first as opposed to just medicating. So for me, you could you may have low testosterone for sure. I may pull your blood panel and see that it's there.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #27 Featuring Dr. Dave Rabin! Psychedelic therapy misconceptions, effectiveness and safety, chronic stress implications, shifting from treatment to CURE, ketamine facts, unlocking self awareness, mental health vs. stress and more!
But I will go in and say, oh, you've got high SHBG. So that's bounding up your free testosterone. Oh, you have a liver problem. Oh, this and that's causing it. This let's fix this first and then see the result as opposed to just here's TRT forever. So is that kind of similar to what you do is let's dig in here, find the cause, treat that, see if it fixes the issue.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #27 Featuring Dr. Dave Rabin! Psychedelic therapy misconceptions, effectiveness and safety, chronic stress implications, shifting from treatment to CURE, ketamine facts, unlocking self awareness, mental health vs. stress and more!
And then if it doesn't, then we progress into something a little bit deeper.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #27 Featuring Dr. Dave Rabin! Psychedelic therapy misconceptions, effectiveness and safety, chronic stress implications, shifting from treatment to CURE, ketamine facts, unlocking self awareness, mental health vs. stress and more!
All right, everybody, welcome back to the Dylan Gemelli podcast. I am really, really excited about my guest today. We've been kind of having some scheduling, but I'm so glad that he's here today. So my guest today is a board certified psychiatrist, neuroscientist, entrepreneur and inventor and He studied resilience and the impact of chronic stress on our lives for over 20 years.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #27 Featuring Dr. Dave Rabin! Psychedelic therapy misconceptions, effectiveness and safety, chronic stress implications, shifting from treatment to CURE, ketamine facts, unlocking self awareness, mental health vs. stress and more!
Yeah. And see, I'm leading, leading, leading, leading. So where I'm going is I want to stress. So I always stress to people, look, I'm not the only one in the world that does this, but find yourself. If you have a testosterone problem, find yourself a professional endocrinologist that will go step by step by step and do all of this and figure it out. And so I'm going to revert that to you.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #27 Featuring Dr. Dave Rabin! Psychedelic therapy misconceptions, effectiveness and safety, chronic stress implications, shifting from treatment to CURE, ketamine facts, unlocking self awareness, mental health vs. stress and more!
Don't just depend on a regular doctor who's just going to throw you on. Chances are, I'm not saying they're all this way, but just going to throw you on medication and move you on your way. Find someone like Dr. Dave that will take you step by step by step and really dig in and find the problem.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #27 Featuring Dr. Dave Rabin! Psychedelic therapy misconceptions, effectiveness and safety, chronic stress implications, shifting from treatment to CURE, ketamine facts, unlocking self awareness, mental health vs. stress and more!
That way, you could actually avoid creating yourself further problem by getting on a medication that you don't need, which we want to prevent, right?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #27 Featuring Dr. Dave Rabin! Psychedelic therapy misconceptions, effectiveness and safety, chronic stress implications, shifting from treatment to CURE, ketamine facts, unlocking self awareness, mental health vs. stress and more!
Yeah. And that's what I always try to bring that point to light. Look, we need every single doctor has a purpose and a reason, but you have to remember that like when you go to a general practitioner doctor, they come and talk to you five, 10 minutes and that's it. They can't really get a feel for what's going on or really truly know.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #27 Featuring Dr. Dave Rabin! Psychedelic therapy misconceptions, effectiveness and safety, chronic stress implications, shifting from treatment to CURE, ketamine facts, unlocking self awareness, mental health vs. stress and more!
And they give you like a basic blood panel and move on and write you whatever you need to get you out and move on to the next. And so that's why it's so important, especially as you get more severe or like, based on a certain condition that you find a real professional that really just focuses on that, that actually delves deep into the process.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #27 Featuring Dr. Dave Rabin! Psychedelic therapy misconceptions, effectiveness and safety, chronic stress implications, shifting from treatment to CURE, ketamine facts, unlocking self awareness, mental health vs. stress and more!
So, okay, would you break down or just kind of give like a small little synopsis on what exactly neuroscience is so that people kind of have a grasp and understanding for what it is you study and why it's so important?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #27 Featuring Dr. Dave Rabin! Psychedelic therapy misconceptions, effectiveness and safety, chronic stress implications, shifting from treatment to CURE, ketamine facts, unlocking self awareness, mental health vs. stress and more!
Yeah, because that's true. I mean, because it's a little bit more complex of a concept to say the least. So I'm sure that you're good at breaking things down and explaining to patients. Do you find that it's hard for them to kind of follow and understand like what you find or do you think that people are kind of receptive and understanding? Do you struggle with that or how does that work for you?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #27 Featuring Dr. Dave Rabin! Psychedelic therapy misconceptions, effectiveness and safety, chronic stress implications, shifting from treatment to CURE, ketamine facts, unlocking self awareness, mental health vs. stress and more!
No, it's really, really broken down well. I appreciate the breakdown and I thoroughly agree. And trying to analyze your own self and your own mind could be a very, very difficult and tricky situation, especially you can drive yourself crazy doing it. If I didn't have prayer in my spirituality, I don't know what I would do with that. But anyway, okay, so...
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #27 Featuring Dr. Dave Rabin! Psychedelic therapy misconceptions, effectiveness and safety, chronic stress implications, shifting from treatment to CURE, ketamine facts, unlocking self awareness, mental health vs. stress and more!
I mentioned this at the beginning, and this was probably one of the things that fascinated me with you so much was when I watched you talk about psychedelic treatment and different aspects of it and the way that you broke it down. Because let me just say that most people, when they hear that, immediately go one route. I know you know what I'm talking about.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #27 Featuring Dr. Dave Rabin! Psychedelic therapy misconceptions, effectiveness and safety, chronic stress implications, shifting from treatment to CURE, ketamine facts, unlocking self awareness, mental health vs. stress and more!
I want to know your route, the route that you're talking about, the professional route, the route that treats and helps people. I want your perspective on why that you believe in it so much and just kind of how it works and what one can expect when getting that kind of treatment.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #27 Featuring Dr. Dave Rabin! Psychedelic therapy misconceptions, effectiveness and safety, chronic stress implications, shifting from treatment to CURE, ketamine facts, unlocking self awareness, mental health vs. stress and more!
And admittedly, before I even saw you talk about this or anything, the only thing that I could ever think of was mushrooms and LSD or, you know, people that I know that told me, oh, I had this experience, this ayahuasca experience and how it changed my life. And I'm just like, yeah, okay. Okay. But then I started to realize, no, maybe I'm wrong here and not listening.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #27 Featuring Dr. Dave Rabin! Psychedelic therapy misconceptions, effectiveness and safety, chronic stress implications, shifting from treatment to CURE, ketamine facts, unlocking self awareness, mental health vs. stress and more!
And there's a lot more to understand and see on how these things work. And I know that you just gave a great breakdown there. Do you feel like you have a lot of trouble overcoming that? assumptions that people have towards it? Do you get a lot of negativity towards it or resistance if you recommend it? And how do you overcome that?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #27 Featuring Dr. Dave Rabin! Psychedelic therapy misconceptions, effectiveness and safety, chronic stress implications, shifting from treatment to CURE, ketamine facts, unlocking self awareness, mental health vs. stress and more!
Do you just like give the breakdown that I gave and find it's a little bit easier to overcome? Because I feel like there's resistance and misunderstanding like we were talking about, but I see and hear the way that you break it down and the passion you have behind it and the obvious experience. So kind of get into that a little bit. I'm just, I'm really curious.

100%. And I like when you brought up the misuse and how so many things you can take too much of anything. So one of the things that I've sat in a lot of conferences on to learn and then now speak on is like GLP-1 use because obviously it's so prevalent and there's so many –

misconceptions and bad information given by some people that have abused it and misused it so and there's always bad players out there that give it out too much or tell people how to use it wrong and then it causes problems and then it trickles down and before you know it it's like this big narrative pushed out in the field that's just inaccurate, right? Because of some bad experiences.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #27 Featuring Dr. Dave Rabin! Psychedelic therapy misconceptions, effectiveness and safety, chronic stress implications, shifting from treatment to CURE, ketamine facts, unlocking self awareness, mental health vs. stress and more!
So clearly that's the same type of thing that you're going through. I was curious because I want to get into the Apollo and how you designed it. But first I do want to ask you, what are some of, if you don't mind, some of the psychedelic treatments that you use and how effective do you find them for whatever condition that you're using them on?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #27 Featuring Dr. Dave Rabin! Psychedelic therapy misconceptions, effectiveness and safety, chronic stress implications, shifting from treatment to CURE, ketamine facts, unlocking self awareness, mental health vs. stress and more!
Are there any that are being looked at in terms of legalized or anything else that you know that's on the horizon coming out at all? Or is it just kind of that's where it's at now with the ketamine and that's it for now?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #27 Featuring Dr. Dave Rabin! Psychedelic therapy misconceptions, effectiveness and safety, chronic stress implications, shifting from treatment to CURE, ketamine facts, unlocking self awareness, mental health vs. stress and more!

Episode #27 Featuring Dr. Dave Rabin! Psychedelic therapy misconceptions, effectiveness and safety, chronic stress implications, shifting from treatment to CURE, ketamine facts, unlocking self awareness, mental health vs. stress and more!
I could probably quiz you on this all day, but I want to get to the Apollo side of things, but I appreciate the breakdown and it's exciting and it's encouraging to know that there's going to be hopefully continuous growth towards correcting, you know, these issues and the medications will hopefully be approved and viewed upon differently as we go. So let's talk about the Apollo. Yeah, I know.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #27 Featuring Dr. Dave Rabin! Psychedelic therapy misconceptions, effectiveness and safety, chronic stress implications, shifting from treatment to CURE, ketamine facts, unlocking self awareness, mental health vs. stress and more!
So what is the Apollo for everybody watching? And what what gave you the idea to come up with such a concept?

And he's also the co-founder of the Apollo Neuro, as you can see that I'm wearing now. And he does so much more that we're going to get into today. So my friends, welcome Dr. Dave Rabin. Thanks, Dave, for being here, man. Thanks so much for having me, Dylan. It's a pleasure to be here with you. Awesome. Well, I've been following some of your work now for quite a while.

Yep. And I pulled this up so I could, that's what I was doing there is so I could show people. So on the app there. So when I got COVID, I wrote Dr. Dave and asked him like, what can I do? Like, what can I do here? And you told me, and I did this and it helped me a lot actually, as I went into that recover mode.

I try to keep stress low, but sometimes during the day, this will, if you just turn this on for a little bit and like, if I'm in one of those States where it's like, everything's getting a little overwhelming or there's so much going on, this is almost like a, you know what I mean?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #27 Featuring Dr. Dave Rabin! Psychedelic therapy misconceptions, effectiveness and safety, chronic stress implications, shifting from treatment to CURE, ketamine facts, unlocking self awareness, mental health vs. stress and more!
Like that, that deep breath calming effect that you need that sometimes you, you can't force yourself to do sometimes that you'd like, if you turn this on, like this just started going off right now again. And I feel it. And I kind of, okay, everything's going to be fine today because it's like a busy day, you know? And it's like, it's so helpful.

The science behind it, like you got into it's, it's really detailed and in depth and there's obviously a lot to it, but it's what an invention and what a, creation that you guys came up with. It's just a testament to your work. And I really appreciate it. And I hope more people utilize it and use it and learn about it and take the time to just download the app. You can feel the vibration.

So, you know, you've done some amazing work and it's really appreciated the innovation and the care that you actually have. We need more people like yourself.

Okay. All right. I'm smiling because I'm so interested in all of these things that you're talking about. And I've read some of the things that you've talked about and discussed, but not into the depth like I want to get with you and understand this. So maybe a little selfishly, I'm like even more excited because I'm going to learn so much here. And then I know I can share it with so many people.

And I like how you brought up the cat purring. It's like I, my cat is like my whole world over here. And so when she does that, it's like one of the most calming things. And it's very similar to me to that feeling. I will say just for me personally, cause I know we can, I've tried it on my ankle and in different spots, but I find it to be the most soothing.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #27 Featuring Dr. Dave Rabin! Psychedelic therapy misconceptions, effectiveness and safety, chronic stress implications, shifting from treatment to CURE, ketamine facts, unlocking self awareness, mental health vs. stress and more!
Just, this is just my own personal experiences right on my wrist. I feel like I, I feel more stimulation and more calm that way personally, but I know it's different for everybody. So I would just encourage people to try and see what works for you and what area you feel the best with it.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #27 Featuring Dr. Dave Rabin! Psychedelic therapy misconceptions, effectiveness and safety, chronic stress implications, shifting from treatment to CURE, ketamine facts, unlocking self awareness, mental health vs. stress and more!
So I want to dig into that first, though. Let's go back to what you said about the impact of chronic stress on our lives, because I've I've actually spent a great deal of time with that as well. Seeing like the anxiety that's kind of built through my family and then kind of trickled down into my life and worked on fixing that. And it's a struggle.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #27 Featuring Dr. Dave Rabin! Psychedelic therapy misconceptions, effectiveness and safety, chronic stress implications, shifting from treatment to CURE, ketamine facts, unlocking self awareness, mental health vs. stress and more!
One question before we go for the sleep, what do you recommend going into like the calm before you're about to go to bed? And then what settings do you recommend while you're sleeping? Because sleep's a big problem for a lot of people. And so I'm curious your method on the best way to go about utilizing it?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #27 Featuring Dr. Dave Rabin! Psychedelic therapy misconceptions, effectiveness and safety, chronic stress implications, shifting from treatment to CURE, ketamine facts, unlocking self awareness, mental health vs. stress and more!
I mean, it's a I think we all probably struggle with to a point. Some people obviously far worse than others. So. In your studies and your treatment of patients and things of that nature, if you could maybe, and I know this is hard to say, but maybe give a percentage of the amount of people you feel actually struggle with this and some of the techniques that you utilize to treat chronic stress.

Episode #27 Featuring Dr. Dave Rabin! Psychedelic therapy misconceptions, effectiveness and safety, chronic stress implications, shifting from treatment to CURE, ketamine facts, unlocking self awareness, mental health vs. stress and more!

I was really thankful that I stumbled upon you several months ago. Many of the people that I highly respect I saw interviewed you, and so we got a lot to talk about. Obviously, I'm wearing the Apollo Neuro. I'm a big believer in that and your work. So first, let's kind of just talk about your background a little bit, because I'm always curious. Everybody's got a pretty cool backstory on why they...

kind of take the directions in life where they're going. So when was it that it kind of occurred to you or what happened in your life that made you go into the route that you're going?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #27 Featuring Dr. Dave Rabin! Psychedelic therapy misconceptions, effectiveness and safety, chronic stress implications, shifting from treatment to CURE, ketamine facts, unlocking self awareness, mental health vs. stress and more!
Right. Okay. So I'm very sympathetic when it comes to people that have like mental health, anxiety, stress, but at the same time, I'm wondering how you differentiate this because what I've seen, I analyze people. I'm no psychiatrist, but I mean, with all of the work I've done throughout the years, I analyze people, actions, reactions, emotions.

That's kind of what I do from being in sales and then to interviewing people and being around people, you kind of have to have a knack for that. So I guess over time, what I've observed is mental health has obviously been talked about a lot more. And I'm also the focus on concussions and things like that in sports, right?

So we see this progression and it's it's I guess it's being more accepted to talk about it and to view it. But I do feel like some people revert to calling being stressed or in stressful situations than claiming they have a mental health problem. So I guess my question for you is, how do you differentiate if I were to come to you and say, Dr. Dave, I've got some mental health issues.

I'm not, you know, I'm not anything special, but I think I know what I know from experience and that my mindset is different than others.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
I agree. And look, you know, a lot of the stuff that I've gained is just through experience and knowledge and me sitting here. And I've told you now several times I'm up so late. I'm not. You know what I do a lot of nights because my wife will just go to bed because she knows I'm just reading. I'm just studying and I'm just constantly looking because.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
One of the things that I despise is this whole thing about like it's demonized to ask questions all of a sudden. You know what I mean? Like our whole world and foundation is based on asking questions. Do you think that Einstein wasn't constantly questioning science and questions? Doesn't science change constantly? Isn't that why we do experiments? Isn't that how we develop medicine?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
I mean, aren't we questioning what's going on and trying to find newer technologies, newer resolutions? I ask questions all day, every day. And I say this all the time. If I go to you and say, Dr. Amy, I just don't understand this. It doesn't seem right to me. Can you break down? And I'm talking to you about something with thyroid, for example.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And if you sit there and go, OK, good question and break it down for me, then I know you're credible. You start doing this political shit where you get all pissed off and trying to defer and don't answer everything but the question. If I ask you a question and every answer is I came from a middle class family, I can't take you serious. I just can't do it. OK, right.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Like if you defer, get angry, I'm done. I just can't do it. And God bless you. I'll pray for you. But I just and if look, if you ask me something and I seriously don't know, I'm going to tell you, look, I'm not 100 percent sure, but I'm going to go to somebody that does and I'll get back to you.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Well, it's it's it's two things. It's called credibility and accountability. And I will always respect somebody that will admit when they're wrong and be accountable. And I will have no respect for somebody that thinks they're right every time and deflects.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
You can't trust them. Agree. And I mean, like I said, I here's what I always say. A lot of the best teachers have made the most mistakes, but they're willing to admit it and they're willing to teach people from those mistakes. You know, and that's what I try to operate on because Lord knows I've made so many mistakes. I don't know where to start.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
But my difference amongst others is I try to not make the same mistake twice.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Everybody's different. And a lot of people will notice if they test IGF levels or growth hormone levels that most people as they get to like their 30s, early 30s, some people I've even seen it in their later 20s will start to have a decline. Now, how fast? That's just completely different from person to person. It really is.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
So using synthetic HGH is different than like a GHRP because that's just helping to release that. So like, for instance, if you go get a stem cell treatment and get them injected into you, that's thousands and thousands and thousands of dollars or there's releasers, right? So you take those to help release HGH. and get stem cells going.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Well, same thing with the G, like if you're trying to run HGH, it could be a car payment. You know what I mean? Like for a lot of people, it's expensive. You run a GHRP, you're not taking like straight exogenous growth hormone, but you're having the ability to help release this into your body. Let's just take a look at, I'm just gonna pick one, I guess. Let's look at like GHRP-6. Okay.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
So, and GHRP six is kind of like what I put people on when they're struggling with hunger. And I'll talk to you about ghrelin. Okay. So basically GHRP six works and it mimics the action of ghrelin. Ghrelin is like a hunger hormone, right? So it's, it's a hormone that binds to the ghrelin receptor in your pituitary gland, essentially. And it's,
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
it triggers secretion of growth hormone from the pituitary gland into your bloodstream. They all work a little bit differently, but kind of similarly. With GHRP-6, what you'll notice, and what's crazy about GHRP-6 is it will increase your hunger but it can potentially also have some fat loss effects to it, which is crazy. And it can enhance muscle growth. You can see improved recovery.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
It's, it's one of those it's tricky because people have to be careful when they're eating too much or overeating. Now then there's GHRP too. And this also mimics the action of ghrelin, but it doesn't have nearly as much hunger to it. And when I have people that are cutting ghrelin, I try to push them towards two as opposed to six. It has a lot of the same benefits.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
One of the things I like about it is it can help with bone density. Bone density, as we know, as we age and as we're lifting heavy, I think people forget that bones do become more brittle and tendons and ligaments, especially if you're growing too much, can be an issue. So things that can help with that are pretty solid.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
I love how peptides help with recovery personally, some more so than others, but I feel like a lot of people will stack GHRP 6 and 2 together for that muscle growth and fat loss. You just have to be careful. Anything that is stimulating ghrelin, you can kind of tend to eat too much. Now, a lot of that will subside over time. But, you know, it's something you want to be careful with.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
But another thing I love about some of these GHRPs is the anti-aging aspect of it, right? Because... they offer that benefit. And I'm not talking like you're going to wake up and be 20 years younger, but you can see it in your skin. Like you really can. And it's hard when you're looking at yourself in the mirror every day, but let's just say you start GHRP too.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Take a picture when you start and then take a picture four weeks later and put them side by side and tell me you don't see a difference.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Not, not drastic, but you'll start to see it gradually and then do it at eight weeks and then do it, do it depending on how long you want to run it. That's arguable, you know, but you'll start to see differences and you'll notice some benefits in your hair, skin, and nails. Now I will say HGH is going to provide the most anti-aging benefit of any of those.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And then I would argue MK six, seven, seven. And while we're on the growth hormone topic, nothing is going to beat growth hormone. Just so everybody knows that. All right. In terms of trying to increase your growth hormone production, but the closest thing to HGH is MK six, seven, seven.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
If you were to rank them, I always tell people, look, if you can't afford HGH, if you're fearful of like, you know, HGH could potentially, if you misuse it could in, you know, increase organ size, you could have a big ass jaw or something that, you know, like,
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
OK, so I'm just going to tell you just how I operate. I am always more on the conservative side and I always look for what do I feel like is going to give the most result with the least amount of concern and worry? And mind you, I am very thorough. Like I'll get people that always want to go, well, what's the best to use? What's the best to use?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
I can't answer that without knowing your background, your history. I'm always going to go more on the conservative side and put people on a peptide before I am with HGH, unless there's a severe deficiency that's just normally not there or like a severe injury that we're struggling to recover from. I'm like 95% of the time going to lean towards the peptides.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And that's just because I know that the risk of problem is far less and we can still achieve the results that we want to achieve. Maybe not as fast. But I'm a risk versus reward guy. And I believe in peptides so much more. And while HGH can be pretty drastic, as most people know, there is far more risk involved and it costs a heck of a lot more.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And, you know, a lot of people try to get underground HGH. And you can get anything underground and run the risk of having an issue, but there's so much bad underground HGH that you have to be aware of. Now, if you're getting it from a doctor, that's a totally different story. But let's keep it real here. And a lot of people that are listening may not understand this.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
A lot of people are going to try to go the generic route so they can get it cheaper, which you're certainly not going to get like a generic from a doctor. Like I'm talking Chinese generic.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
It's very, very risky. I don't like it. I really don't. There's underground peptides that are shitty too, but there's far less risk of something going wrong. You're just going to lose your money with a shitty peptide generally, you know, and. I'm very cautious. I will touch on, because you asked me about ipamorelin. So that's like a selective growth hormone secretagogue.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And it's a ghrelin memetic as well. You'll notice that ghrelin keeps coming up in a lot of these, but it stimulates growth hormone release. That's the main thing that it does, but it doesn't impact your other hormones, which is huge. That's like when we talk about steroids and things, that's part of the problem that we're having is all of the other nasty effects. We're not getting those.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
All right. So ipamorelin is going to bind to the ghrelin receptor in your pituitary, which you'll continuously hear me talk about. I love ipamorelin for the, you know, stimulating the growth hormone release. And then it aids in muscle growth, fat loss, recovery. I see a lot more body fat reduction with Ipamorelin and CJC 1295 stack than I do with your GHRPs.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And if we're talking bodybuilders, especially, I always kind of go towards that Ipamorelin CJC combo. And now you can buy them. They're in a blend together. You don't have to keep injecting them separately. You can buy them blended. I mean, shit, there's all kinds of things coming out now that were never options. There's gels, there's capsules for some of these that are actually working.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
like BPC, but there's a lot of creative compounding pharmacies out there that have cracked the code on certain things, truly.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Well, there's a couple options. And once again, I'm, I'm a mama's boy. So I'm particularly careful with women. Like, you know, like I always say my women, like my mom, my wife, my cat and my daughter, like I'm very, very protective. So I may be a little too protective with women. So I'm sorry, right off the bat, but that's, that's just how I operate.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Yes. So ipamirelin has shown to be very, very, very tolerated, well, safer. And that's one that I've never had any issue putting women on. Now, hexarelin is one that doesn't get as much talk. That's a growth hormone releasing hormone. So that's a GHRH. We're talking about a hormone here, which is different. I don't necessarily put women on those.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
I don't like messing with women's hormones as much. So I'm more towards the GHRP side of things. Now, a man in that age, I'm looking at Hexarel and Simirel and those options. But we're talking different categories here. I'm very comfortable with Ipa Morel and CJC 1295. Tessa Moreland is another one that has gotten a lot more popular recently that wasn't really around before.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
That's a good one to consider. CJC 1295 is interesting. I've always been a fan of it. I've personally responded extremely well to it. I don't have an issue with women running that. But once again, with women at the age bracket you're talking about, I'd rather just have them take one thing. There's not a reason. You're not bodybuilding. There's not a reason to start throwing 50 things at yourself.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
I don't believe whatsoever. And so I have a lot of comfort with, with IPA Morell and at that age, truly.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
So it really depends. Here, I'll give you a story. One of my worst experiences with peptides, but one that I would find many people would want to use, and that's melanotan-2. Now, I don't know if people are familiar with it or not, and I'll keep it very simple because I can get scientific with melanin 10 to essentially it's like going to the tanning bed without going to the tanning bed. All right.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
It's going to increase melanin production in your body and it provides a protective layer for you against UV radiation. So it can actually reduce your risk of skin damage and skin cancer from sun exposure. So it's pretty sweet. I mean, in simple terms. So it induces skin tanning. So like, here's my story. I was living in Maui and it was right when I learned about peptides and I was like...
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And, uh, oh boy. So I, um, I would highly recommend if you're going to use melanotan too, that you ease into it. And I will tell you why for two reasons. One, it can cause nausea, like right after you take it. Yeah. And so I always took it at night because I was hoping to prevent that. But I also, I also like to have like a protein before I go to bed or like small amounts of oatmeal for sleep. Um,
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And so I would take the, I would eat. And then like, you know, right before I went to bed, I'd take the little injection. And I I'm telling you the first week I threw up every single time. I just, my body didn't like it. And even at lower doses. And then.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
The libido got out of control for me personally, but the worst part of it all, when you take melanotan too, you're supposed to get yourself out in the sun for a little bit and help to tan. Well, I was in that phase where I'm in Maui, like, you know, I'm just going to go to the beach every day after work. It was a really bad idea because I would lay out like 30 minutes for like a week straight.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And I got so dark that it was embarrassing. Oh my gosh. Embarrassing. I went into the grocery store one day and I knew everybody in there because, you know, local Maui, you know, you just kind of know everybody. I went in there and somebody made the, one of the cashiers made a comment to me like, what happened to you? You know, and I didn't realize it.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
I didn't want to leave the house for like a week. Seriously. You have to be careful because it's so strong and it can really darken you up like major. It's very popular because, you know, like I said, it can provide some skin protection, which is sweet because I mean, UV radiation is a problem for people. It's dangerous. And So it's nice, but it's, it's okay.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Just be very, very, very careful with it. I mean, there's, there's certain peptides that are out there that are just like for libido PT one 41, for example, like that's used for sexual dysfunction. It's going to increase sexual desire. It's, it's very, very strong. And I would almost prefer people use that over Cialis or Viagra.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Now we can get into that, you know, differently because it's a totally different concept, but it's a different mechanism. And I feel like it's safer, you know? So that's another thing that's out there. There's so many different options depending on what you want. I mean, right now, I will tell you this because I am very friendly with a lot of people that own research chemical sites, right?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And so I have watched and I study what's selling the most. So I know what I'm going to have the most questions for. I do some affiliate work. I know what to push. You know what I mean? And right now, it's not even close in terms of what the most popular is. And I mean, not even close. And that's BPC 157.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Yeah, please.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
you know what I'm going to do for you and your audience? I'm going to give you my healing stack. Like I'm talking, if you want to just rock with the best healing stack possible, it's a combination of SARMs and peptides.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Yeah, we'll get into that for sure. And you know what though? I will say this, MK677 is not a SARM. It's a secretagogue, but it gets grouped in with SARMs. So a lot of times things are sold and marketed as SARMs. which we'll get into later, but that I'm going to list that in the SARM category, even though it's kind of listed in a peptide category now. So the obvious number one is BPC 157, correct?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
That's your, that's like your backbone. So like if you're running a steroid cycle, testosterone is your backbone. Well, my healing protocol, BPC is your number one. That's your backbone. Number two, is TB 500. Anybody that uses BPC 157 tends to also stack with TB 500. Yeah. A lot of times now, they're all grouped together, whether it's in capsule form, whether it's in your vial, and now even gels.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And I'm a big fan of the gel myself. I get sick of pinning with all the TRT and I don't use steroids anymore, but I just get sick of pinning, you know? And so to have a gel is nice. So we got those two BPC 157, TB 500, MK 677, which I told you is very similar to HGH and That's a lot. Now you got to understand with that, that's a longer term healer. So that takes a while.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
That's like your, let's keep the healing going once we stop everything else. Cause you can't just run everything forever that I'm listing. You have to, you have to come off. So we've got your, we've got your three there. Here's my favorite. This is my key. MK2866, also known as Osteren. That is your short-term healer. What I love about Osteron is healing is just a fraction of what you get from it.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
It was one of the first SARMs that was ever sold. It provides you fat loss. It provides you strength. It provides you lean muscle. Now, there's some side effects. You got to be careful with it. It's slightly suppressive to your testosterone, which for a female... not really worry about it.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
But for a man, if you're going to do this particular protocol, you're going to need some sort of mini post-cycle therapy. It doesn't have to be a full post-cycle therapy, but when you start suppressing your natural testosterone production, you've got to, you got to be aware of that.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
You don't even need to do that. When you're on TRT, you're not going to see suppression or the blast steroids or what, because you're consistently getting your testosterone injected. So no concern if you're on TRT. Lastly, it's another SARM. It's a newer SARM. It's called ACP-105. It actually has been found.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
I don't know the mechanism of action, so I'm not going to front, but it's been found to have healing properties as well. Many, many people report it. I can't prove it on paper, but I've seen it enough that I can back it up and recommend it. So that is your total protocol with the ACP and the MK2866 and the BPC and the TV500. I keep people at 12 weeks. Yeah. MK six, seven, seven.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
We go at least six months. If you want to get the full benefits. Now, when you're running HGH or MK six, seven, seven, I will tell people don't be too low carb. Some people will go too low carb on those. Or if you have, if you have any diabetic concern or anything like that, stay away from these. You don't, there's other, there's other methods to heal.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Just go BPC one five, seven, but that's why is that?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
People tend to get like hypoglycemia with it and things like that. And it's, it's just, it's, it's something that's not worth the risk, I guess. I would say this, if you are, if you have any concerns of any kind, the safest one of all these is BPC.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And that's, it's body protective compound. I mean, it says it all in the name. Yeah, it does. Yeah. And just remember with BPC 157, you want to inject as close to your injury as you can. So like, that's another reason why I don't like to inject because I have a really bad tennis elbow. And of course it's an insulin needle and I've got tattoos here.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
So I've been through the ringer, but you just don't want to inject in your elbow. You just doesn't sound fun.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
No, you just don't. And I'd like to avoid that. But that's when people come to me. That's the stack they get, you know, that I lay out and go do it. Now, you're not going to get just understand you're not going to get SARMs prescribed to you. So you could get MK six, seven, seven prescribed. But the other two, you're not going to get a prescription for those. You got to go underground. So, yeah.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Keep that in mind. I'm not advocating going underground. I'm just saying that's it.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
I can, and I can always give a recommendation because I can guarantee you if anybody knows where to get them and where to not go, I'm okay. I'm very careful in terms of saying negative things about other places. If you ask me, I'll be honest. I'm just not going to throw it out there. My absolute, I have, I have a golden goose and then I have another one that's like very close, but not quite there.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
It's called umbrella labs. And I actually went there. down to their company and that's in arizona and i'll tell you this i have never been so impressed like i'm talking about a facility hundreds of thousands of dollars of equipment and like a real company a lot of these places
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
lord knows how they're making their shit you know what i mean like some of them just make it in their house like you don't know what you're talking about well yeah and and they were like compounding things they created gels and things that you haven't seen they've come out with a semi-glutide tablet that they just came out with like it's pretty innovative the owner's like a straight shooter you know because a lot of these guys are shady as fuck like yeah
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast

And then there's another one. It's newer and it's called RCS. It's research chemical sciences. It's a newer one, but I like it because it's very scientific. Once again, I met this owner straight shooter, like, but this guy's more of like an intellect with it. Like a lot of these guys, they're just trying to make money. They don't live that life. This guy was like, Mr. Science.

You know, I don't think they do nearly as much business. I don't think they're as big of a company, but they're solid. So those are my two go-tos.

EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
saying where you trust for research peptides is it you just gave the listeners literally a diamond ring like thank you thank you well it it honestly it's like my obligation because i know so much about this if i don't help people where to get things then what does that say about me like I don't want to bash other companies. Just let me tell you this.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
If you're looking up things and I want people to understand how this actually works and these places hate my fucking guts. And that's probably why one of my first, when my old YouTube channel got shut down, I told you about, this is part of the reason why, but now I just don't give a fuck. So here's the whole process of how this works.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
If you go type in the term SARMs for sale or peptides for sale, what you're going to find is all of these sites coming up that are review sites. And they do a hell of a job making these websites. And it looks like for Christmas, and this is another trick for people that are looking at stuff for Christmas or looking for reviews on shit, how fake this is. Uh-huh. They make these sites.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
They look so professional. And you'll notice it's always the same ones over and over and over again that are being recommended. And then you'll find one website that's not a big website that's not Tom's guides or all this bullshit. And then it'll be a totally different layout of stuff you've never heard of. And I'm going, what the fuck?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Well, now that I realize what they do, so here's what they do. The companies with the biggest amounts of bankroll, they go in and they go to all these different publications. Cause you'll see this stuff like in men's health and like, you know, for SARMs and you're like, how the hell are they getting these articles in men's health? Well, I own a press release company, so I know how this works.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
We have the abilities to get articles in there. And then when you scroll to the very, very bottom, it'll say not associated with men's health. This is the article written by so-and-so. And the shit is this small. But first of all, you're never going to scroll down all that way and read that shit. No, no. You can literally put content out there if you got the paper on all of these sites.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And then you'll see these websites that advertise and it'll say on Fox News, on this, on that. The fuck you were. No, you weren't. You were not. Let's see the actual video of when you did it because you can't.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
show it because you're fucking liar because you have such a high bankroll and you know how to do seo which is is how you rank on google so they take over all the terms so you'll see these three or four sarms or peptides companies that have taken over and you'll read these reviews and go well holy shit you know this is great i gotta go there here's my money yeah yes And the same thing on Reddit.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
You go to Reddit. Here's the deal with Reddit. You get on those forums and Reddit has sub forums. And what they do is they're bought and paid for by these companies and they will delete all of your shit. If you call them out, they will delete it. They will bad mouth everything of every other company. It's all fucking fake.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
So it's very difficult and that's why they hate people like me because I know all of their tricks and I don't let people fall for it. Don't just Google like SARMs for sale or peptides for sale and trust the reviews that you're getting. If you don't have somebody that is actually recommending them,
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
that you can trust that has any sort of credibility, just be very careful what you read, especially when you see the same damn companies being reviewed time and time again, because here's what they do. People create these websites, They will call the owners, and I know this because I've been a part of it, and they'll say, hey, we're making this new website and this review site.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
We'll put you on here as one of our things. We're going to get it ranked, and this is what we want you to pay us. And if you don't pay it, they're going to go right to the next one and do it.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Don't trust review sites because they're phony. And then always scroll to the bottom and see what it says.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
When you see those logos, so if it was me and I had a website up and it was like featured on whatever, right underneath that, you would see a YouTube clip embedded or a link to the website embedded that shows me talking on there. You know, when it says as seen on Shark Tank, you can go look it up and see if it was on Shark Tank.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Yeah. But anybody can make their supplement, their product look like it was as seen on or as advertised on. Go look it up and make sure first.

And when you can't find it, you got your answer.

I'm dish. I'm fucking Kay Jewelers today.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
I'm happy to do it. Truly. I really am. one of the things that I will tell the audience and you is, is that I have really figured out what I'm supposed to do with my life.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And I am on a mission to make sure that people get the truths that I am calling out and using my platform with people like you and anybody that wants to come along with me, that this is the one chance that we have now to fight back and to not accept all the shit that's going on. And I promise you that,
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
I'm, I'm very deep in faith and I won't get into that because I know some people don't like that. But what I will tell you is this is that I finally figured it out and I listened and I know, and now it's like pouring out of me. Some of the shit that I'm saying now, I don't even know where it's coming from. I have no plan on saying this, but that's like Holy spirit working within me.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And so I, I guarantee you, you will continuously see me doing things like this until they hate me so much. But now we got protection. You know what I mean? We did not have before. So you want to take away speech and everything you can try, but there's too many of us now. There's too many.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Yeah, it would it would be preferable to go back to when shit was fucking normal. Right. That's a different conversation.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
So SARMs is just selective androgen receptor modulators. You know, what's crazy about SARMs is when you go dig into every SARM, you'll find that they're basically all developed to prevent osteoporosis and to prevent muscle wastage. So like cancer patients, AIDS patients, they would give them... you know, SARMs were created kind of for them so that they could help with muscle wastage.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Cause you know, when you get some of those diseases, you're just eating your muscle away. You know, the thing that's different about, because I do all of these things, you'll see all of my SARMs versus steroids comparisons and all my fights with the bros over this is just endless. Right. But one of the things is, you know, steroids will have a direct effect on your prostate, right?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Well, the thing about SARMs is you're not running into that. You're not having these problems. It's binding to the androgen receptor, but you're not getting... It's stimulating it, but it has effects on bone and muscle, which I said will increase your bone density and lean body mass, but it's going to have minute effects on reproductive issues that you're seeing with steroid use.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
So one of the things that I love about them is... they have this ability to kind of mimic certain steroids and what you're getting. Not to the same extent, but here's one of the things that I stress. When you tell me, or if I ask you what your results were, I don't care what your results were while you were using them. I care about what your results are after you come off of them.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And the determining factors there are, what does your blood work look like? And how much did you keep? I can go throw somebody on D-ball and anybody that doesn't know what that is, it's a steroid that is known for increasing bulk in a major way. I can go put somebody on D-ball and they could literally gain 15 to 20 pounds on cycle. But here's the problem.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Oh, yeah. I am beyond excited, grateful to be here, and I'm looking forward to it in a major way.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
A lot of that's water weight because of the estrogen conversion. And the keepability aspect of that is very, very low because when you use a steroid, As a man, you're shutting down your natural testosterone production. And so when you do that, after you recover, a lot of the gains that you make, you lose.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And you actually are setting yourself up for failure later with testosterone production, meaning that you're probably going to require TRT. And in the meanwhile, you're just taken away from what you could do. But SARMs... And I get into certain SARMs and the different benefits. But when you take a SARM, you're not going to gain 15 or 20 pounds with it right away at all.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
But you could gain 5, 6, 7 pounds, cut the side effects down to a bare minimum, recover better. And by the time it's all said and done, way better blood panel, much more capability on your gains. Now... Part of the problem with SARMs now is a lot of the ones they're creating are basically just steroids that literally they could shut you down just as much. They're just as strong.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
But I'm talking like the early school ones, you know, that were very few when I first started. Like another one, GW501516. It's not technically a SARM, but it's grouped with SARMs. It actually lowers cholesterol. It lowers blood pressure. It helps fix metabolic problems. And it's banned by WADA, W-A-D-A, because it has such a drastic increase on endurance.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
So it's very unfair because it's increasing your VO2 max to... I mean, I've seen people shave so much time off their mile time taking this. I did it myself. It's insane. I've seen people, you know, when you shave and anybody that is a distance runner, if you shave like 15 seconds off a mile, that's massive, right? Right. I mean, that's a big deal.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
I'm seeing people doing like triple that off their mile times with this shit.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
He was doing like an EPO, but there's there's a big belief that he was using it, too. And most endurance athletes, they get busted for something. That's that's their go to. It's usually a storm. OK, yeah. GW 501516. It's called Carterine or SR 9009.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Yep. It was honestly, it was created to treat cholesterol and obesity is why it was even created. Now, SR9009 is similar. I prefer... So SR9009 is geared more towards fixing metabolism with secondarily increasing endurance, while carterine is more primarily endurance and secondarily with metabolism. So it's really, you're getting them both.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
If you have a really bad metabolic issue, I would gear towards the SR9009. You have to be careful with SR9009 because it can throw up your circadian rhythm. And, uh, it needs dosed more frequently. So it's, it's a little bit more of a, like annoyance, I guess, than anything, you know, people don't like to follow the rules on things with rule of thumb with, with dosing protocols.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
If you SR 9009 half-life is very, very, very, very short. And if you really want to get the full effect of it, it's like every two to three hour dose. I tell people like, yeah, it's a pain in the ass. If you really want to just do three doses a day, fine. You're still going to get results, but you're not getting the max.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
You never want to do an injectable SARM ever. Like they don't really sell those anymore. That's not what they were intended to do. And they're very problematic. SARMs, yes, liquid is great. I like liquid because you can manipulate the dosing quite well. But now there's, you can use capsules. I prefer capsules now more than anything.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
But like Umbrella Labs has a proprietary, this is why I love them so much. They're the only place that created a gel where you can take a gel and eat it. And I mean, look, capsules are easy. No liquids are tricky because liquids can, if you put them in extreme temperatures, for instance, if they freeze, you got an issue. If they get too hot, you got an issue.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And there are kind of a pain in the ass to carry. And they, they're, liquids are really really taste shitty because it's pretty yeah well they're suspended in either glycol which is like motor oil or they're suspended in grain alcohol which is everclear and i mean it's a minute amount but if you you take that shit you feel it you know it right right and
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
This is another reason why I like Umbrella Labs. They have a proprietary thing that they do. It's called a poly cell. You can't taste it. You can't taste it. Now, you have to shake it all the time before you use it, but who cares? You literally cannot taste it. I don't know what it is, all that they put in it, because it's their own formula, and I don't get into all that.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
But whatever they figured out and did, that was one of the main reasons I started with them was because they had the tasteless. I like liquid because like I said, you can manipulate the dose. If you get a capsule, you got a capsule, you're taking it just 15 milligrams. If you got a gel and it says 15 milligrams, you could break it up and gas and whatever.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
But if you got a liquid, you can manipulate that dose, right? So if it's 20 milligrams in a milliliter, you know, the full droppers, 20 milligrams, take the half a milliliter, you got 10. You know, because women have different dosing on SARMs than men do. And you need to be able to manipulate the dose as a woman.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
So. Right.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
No. Now, there are some that I'm not comfortable with women running when you get a little bit harder into it. There's a few that you definitely don't want to use as a woman that I've seen women accidentally use that gave them some virilization. And anybody that doesn't know what that means, it's like deepening of the voice. Male attributes will come out.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
I've seen some like really bad acne breakouts with the harder ones, but there's certainly some that women can run. Here's the good and the bad to my favorite one for women. Remember when I brought up Osterin in my healing stack?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
So women really do well on Ostrom, but there's a twofold problem there. It can increase the clitoris size and it can throw off your menstrual cycle. Not for everybody, but man, women respond so well to just the lean muscle and the healing and everything. S4 is another one that I'm perfectly fine with women taking. No problem. But we start getting heavier and heavier.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And like I told you, I'm very protective. Some women are just hard fucking core and they just want to do it. And I'm like, go for it. But I'm not recommending it. You know, right. Just not so. But I'm going to weave a second because you brought up the testosterone for women. And what I want to say is this.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
We have this trouble with men and with women because we know that women's, you know, estrogen dominant men is testosterone dominant, but everybody listening, you have to understand something. I need estrogen and like Dr. Amy needs testosterone. Now, obviously to what extent it's far, far lower in terms of our opposite hormones and what we need.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
But for men, if I crush my estrogen, I am in a world of hurt, depression, depression, inability to gain muscle. You're going to carry around more fat, brain fog. Same thing goes with women. You have to. I just had this conversation with my mom and my wife because they have an expert in the house. They don't fucking listen. No, we have to check your testosterone levels.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
We need full hormonal panels, full hormonal panels, because there's other things that you got to look at, right? Like for men, you got to look at SHBG because that can bind up your free testosterone. And if you have low testosterone, you may not need TRT. You may have other areas you need to correct. Same with women.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
You have to look at all of the blood panels and not make assumptions because you might not need certain therapies or treatments. Right. Right. So I just want to stress that. And I had to weave off SARMs for a minute because I felt that was important.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Good question. Okay. Yeah. So this is and once again, this is subjective to the person, but I really don't like it lower than 30.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
I feel like when you start getting lower than 30, that's when you start to potentially have some problems. Now, I also don't like it like in the 60 range. Now, estrogen is good and some people are very comfortable in their 50s with it. And I also am very comfortable with that.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
So, I mean, I'm just going to try to keep it like super, super simple because you can always get like really overly scientific and just very basic. They're just short chains of amino acids and they really kind of function primarily through signaling pathway. So they're kind of recognizable because they have the ability to target specific areas or functions in the body.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
I just don't want it to get to the point where you're increasing blood pressure, getting too much water retention, or possibly developing gynecomastia, which you shouldn't at 60. And if you're not running estrogen converting compound, you shouldn't. But if you start to get itchy nipples or you feel like there's some fat there or something, just let's taper off.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
If you're taking something or maybe eating something that's contributing to that, maybe smoking way too much pot, something like that, just remember that those can contribute. Some people will argue that eating too much soy can do that. Keep that in mind if you are eating too much soy and you start to have an estrogen increase.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
My biggest problem with anything is where they have testosterone levels on their charts. Well, first of all, you know this better than I would, that you go to different labs, they're going to have different reference ranges, right?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
I wanted to ask you where you want. I was going to turn it around on you and ask you a question where you liked your women. So you like them at 50 at minimum, right?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Well, depending on the age, obviously, but I always say at the minimum, I like you at the low 700s, higher 600s, at the bare minimum. Now, I'm with you. I prefer that 800 range, but I also don't like it too high. Some people will argue with me on that, and that's fine. What I feel...
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
is that if you get too high and you're walking around too high for too long that it will actually shave years off your life i'm talking like if you feel like you need to walk around like 1500 every day that's too high it's not necessary if you're at 800 like you said oh you should you should be feeling great as long as your other health markers are in line but testosterone wise i love it in that range
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
If you have a family history of prostate, for example, you just want to be very careful with your total testosterone numbers, your testosterone, your dose of it. Because what I've found is... Most people tolerate and handle testosterone very well when it comes to effects on prostate, but there's always outliers. You know what I mean?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
I just am very, very careful at anybody that has a family history on certain things and prostate is one because it seems that testosterone will definitely like if you go get a PSA done, if you take synthetic testosterone, that it will have a negative effect. But that's then this leads me to this.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And the beauty of them is the side effects are quite minimal, right? Some of the primary benefits that you'll see with them is like boosting growth hormone production, aiding in recovery and healing.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
If you are doing TRT or testosterone, make sure that you're having a doctor monitor you for all of these things because you just don't know. A lot of people think they know, oh, well, my testosterone numbers are X, Y, and Z, but they don't really know the effect they're having on other things.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
You could literally, like I said, I don't see this often, but you could really fuel the growth of prostate cancer with testosterone use if you're not careful, if you have a family history. Higher levels of testosterone, and that's why I'm careful when I tell people too high, it can really...
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
it can increase your risk of prostate cancer and it can make it more like, let's say you have, let's just say you have early onset prostate cancer. For example, testosterone could really make it more aggressive. Okay. You know what I mean?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Like it could really enhance its ability to grow on you and get it out of control. Yeah.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
That's why it's so important that you're always monitoring everything and that you're all over everything and that you don't take chances on anything at all. That's what people hire me to do a lot of times anymore is they just want me to optimize their hormones and read their blood panels.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And that's, I can't tell you how many people come to me just for that in their forties and fifties, especially right now.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Yeah. So I am very, very, very kind of like one track mind on this. Right. So there's there's what I've seen with a lot of doctors is so testosterone on deconate, for example, is like a super long ester. Right. Like they'll have people come in and take that and take it once a month.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
There's some that have really, they provide specific benefits like fat loss, for example, like we were talking about with Ozempic and Terzepatide, but those haven't been around, you know, nearly as long as a lot of the other ones. A lot of them that were, when I started were like GHRPs, growth releasing hormone peptides. See where they've...
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Yeah. Yeah. It's so bad. It's so bad. I literally just stick with testosterone sipionate. Sustanon was like really developed for TRT. And that's a blend of four different esters. And it's like 60% long, 40% short. I'm not a big fan of blends. And I don't, I feel like there's too much yo-yo there. I always stick with sipionate because the half-life falls like right at that week. Yeah.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
But, but, but, but, but, but. People like that because they think they should only dose it once a week, which I get, I understand based on the half-life, but you have these peaks and troughs, right? And by the time the end of the week comes, what I find is most people like they get on this high and then they start to wonder why they don't feel so good at the end of the week.

I love Sipionate because it's perfect for twice a week dosing. Perfect. And I have people that will argue with me and I'm like, dude, do whatever makes you feel good. Do whatever makes you feel good. But I can prove to you That with what I've experienced, by far and away, twice a week dosing is the best.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And I have spoken on panels with some of the people that all they do is do TRT and specialize in TRT. And I'm telling you, they all are proponents of it. All of them.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
No, you are. And when you asked me that question, I took it as what would my preference be? What's going to be the most... How are you going to get the most out of it? Look, sub-Q can be done. People do it. It's just if we're ranking the systems, intermuscular is always going to be the best. Now, here's a little... Here's a trick for everybody that a lot of people...
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
A lot of people, when they inject, they have three sites that they think of. First off, the back glutes. Well, those go injected in my ass. Right. Into your delts and then into your quads. Yeah. Now, the quad would, just on sight, you would look at a quad and go, holy shit, look how big the muscle is there. That's the best because I got so many sites.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
When in reality, I would argue the quad is one of the worst because your room for error is so minute. And you make just the smallest. So just think of it like this. You got this big ass area, right? And then there's like those landmines on there where if you take the wrong step, it's just going to explode. And I swear to you, the quad is the most problematic spot in terms of making a mistake.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Where they're at now and where they come from is quite a story, and I can get into that later. But essentially, they're short chains of amino acids, and that should bring comfort to people when you realize exactly what they are, because there's a big confusion on what they are, and a lot of people do have fear of them. And the term peptides gets thrown around a lot and it's just misunderstood.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And the delts, here's a story for you that was so embarrassing that I did. I consistently injected in my delt line. I'm talking heavy. This is when I was actually cycling steroids. heavy amounts of oil. Well, guess what happened? Cause I kept doing the same spot. I developed a lipoma on a, and it was like, it was like this.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
I had to have it surgically removed because I wasn't rotating sites and I was doing too much oil. Let me tell you the trick. If you're doing intermuscular injections, it's called a ventro gluteal. And that is by far the The easiest, the best and the most painless. So just picture I'm not going to stand up and show you just picture like the side of your ass kind of the side.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
That's that's a ventral gluteal. So it's not directly into your gluteal. It's in the side. It's so nice and thick there. And there's so much more room for error there. And it's so easy and it's so nice. And I just, when I do TRT, I just rotate each, you know, I do the left one or the right one and it's easy. Now I will tell you this, if you're doing intermuscular,
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
The small or the I wouldn't go anything under a 25 gauge one inch, because if you start going lower than that, like with a 23, it's like a fucking harpoon and it's going to hurt.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
That's right. And let me tell you what I have done in the past, like when I'm tired or, or just got too much on my mind. So you will, when you draw the, you know, like your testosterone out, I use an 18. Okay.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
So that fucker is like, that is, it's almost like intimidating to look at. Well, there's been, there's been a couple of times where I do that. And then I'm just not thinking. And I'm like, Oh no, why isn't this going in? Why isn't it going in? And then I take a look and like, Oh shit. If that would have went in what, but it doesn't really go. It's too big. It just doesn't go.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
So if you find yourself like injecting and it's not going, pull back real quick and take a look. There's a reason it might not be going into the skin. Yeah.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Yeah. It's like trying to catch an orca whale or something. You know what I mean? It's like, you just don't do it. Don't do it. Right. Yes. But you could do like a 27, 29, you know, needle just fine, I guess too. It'd be fine. And you can certainly, you can certainly do. It's just when you're doing like sub Q, it should be a much lower dose, you know, for women, it's much more acceptable than men.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
I have no issue with women and even men do it, do it, whatever you see fit. But I would prefer women go on that route as opposed to men, because it's a lower dose and it's easier. And
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
When I started, like I was telling you before, there was like seven to ten peptides that you could find. And now there's like hundreds, even thousands out there that do so many different functions. It's it's insane.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
I mean, not, it's, I don't think it's so necessary because with the men it's you, you need so much more and it's so much more going in when you're talking 10, 20 milligrams, even, even if you went 50 each dose, I could argue you don't have to, but I would say this, try it, just see what happens, you know, just test them both out and see if you feel better. That's all it would be.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
So I'm always a trial and error guy. And so just be careful and try things out and see how you feel.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
So, okay. I'm going to preface this right off the bat. I have put out a lot of videos and a lot of content for women when it comes to steroids. I am not a fan of women using steroids. I never have been. And it's my protective nature. And just because that I know... And take this as a guy that actually cares. They're not meant for women.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
However, the one steroid that I have actually said, okay, fine, I'll coach you on this, is Anabar. And it's the one that women tolerate the most. But let me point this out. I actually have a video that discusses the myths of Anabar, and one of the biggest myths is that it's just so mild. It is more mild than other compounds. That is an absolute fact.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
But to look at it as though, oh, this is so mild, women run it, da-da-da-da-da, that is not the case. It is a toxic oral steroid, and when I say that, When you take an oral steroid, it goes through a process. It's called C-17 alpha-alkylation, meaning it's altered so it can pass through the liver and get through. But what that does is it's methylated. And methylation can harm your liver.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
It can harm your kidneys. It can rack your cholesterol. It can rack your blood pressure. And over time, even though our liver is resilient and our body parts are resilient, This is very, very problematic. And that's why I tell people when they run Anabar, do not exceed six weeks of it. Do not go over a certain amount of doses. I have seen people run it longer and I've seen a slew of problems.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And so I'm very cautious with oral steroid use. However, women tolerate Anabar quite well. I just am very careful with women's dosing. I always start them at five milligrams and I don't take them any higher than 20. And that's like the hardcore bodybuilding women that really want to go harder and Now, I've seen women tolerate primobolin pretty decently, which is my favorite steroid, by the way.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
I just I have this thing about women and steroids where I'm more comfortable with peptides and SARMs because I just don't think most women know. I understand times have changed, but most women don't want male characteristics and don't want deepening a voice. And some of that shit's irreversible. Now, chances of that having with Anabar are low.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
But, you know, it's still it's a DHT compound, which means it could also potentially cause hair loss. And so these are just things that you have to keep in mind with any steroid. Now, there's a lot of benefits that women have with Anabar.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Just don't think that you're going to use Anabar and just start losing a bunch of weight or if you're overweight, that it's going to do all these things that people think because that's just not the case.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And that's what's crazy. So just a little background. When I started doing all of this, it was 2011, and there was nobody online talking about steroids at all. Nobody. And I had the willingness to go ahead and try. I was trying to do something with myself. I was kind of at a loss, at a crossroads on where I was going. I had to start my life over, as you already know, at that age.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Right. I mean, just remember that every steroid that you use is derived from testosterone and altered, but they are suppressive to your natural testosterone. So they will shut you down. And that's, you know, with women. So here's a story. I when I lived in Vegas, I was at one of the Botox clinics that I was going to and I was waiting.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And this girl recognized me from YouTube and she started asking me questions and she told me. that she had used Anivar for four years straight and never came off. And she was an absolute wreck. And I didn't even know what to do at that time because I was still kind of in my earlier stages. And I was like, because I'd only been really into this three or four years at that time.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And while I was versed and I was like, this is like the reality of things of what's going on and people that don't understand, you can't just stay on these things like that. But anyway, in terms of the cutting, so Anavar, one of the things about Anavar is that it will target, and let me say this very clear, stubborn belly fat.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
That does not mean that if you're 100 pounds overweight that it's going to target all of that fat and just make it come off of you. If you're in really nice condition, let's just say you're 12% body fat and you're having trouble getting under that 10% mark and you've got like, you know, men have flank, you know, is like an issue for them or women like directly into the stomach.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
It will target that. And it can certainly, it can certainly help. And it's a muscle hardener. So the leaner you are, the more you're going to see in terms of vascularity and muscle hardening. So you will develop a grainier look. And that's why a lot of people will use it at the end of a cycle because there's, they're polishing off their cycle and steroid terms or bro terms with the polishing.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
I would argue that it is one of the best muscle hardening steroids behind Winstroll and Masteron. So it definitely has that benefit. But if you're looking for something that's going to be a weight loss drug or magically put you into shape, you just understand that's not what steroids do.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And when you do that, you actually may see results, but you're causing yourself more problems down the road than what you think and understand.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
I mean, you certainly could cycle it. Yeah, you just can't stay on it permanently. The good part of that is you could have some correction and certainly see some correction. The bad part of that is when you come off of it and you have suppressed. So what I would say is if you have to go that route and you want to go that route, there's a couple of things that you need to do.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
One, you need to be very, very in tune with your ALT, your AST, your liver, for people that aren't watching, your liver function tests, your BUN, your creatinine levels, things like that. So you'd be very well in tune with that cholesterol. And I'm talking comprehensive cholesterol, not just LDL, HDL. But another thing that you may want to consider doing
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And so I started to dig into, you know, talking about steroids, talking about things nobody would talk about in discussing really primarily trying to get people to not use them, but knowing that they are using them and trying to teach them how to safe to safely do it and effectively without just crippling themselves. And during this time period.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
is in between those cycles and don't run the cycles too close together is just get on a testosterone booster, like a good one, not a bullshit one. I mean, there's so many bullshit ones and I'm not telling you it's gonna fix you.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
I would just be sitting here looking at the camera being a flat stone liar if I'm telling you an herbal testosterone booster is gonna correct this, but it certainly will help if you get a good one.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
yeah that's another conversation where i have to like talk about what to look for and what not to but that's certainly an option that you could do i don't like putting people on clomid and clomiphene all of these things that were not intended for this you know what i mean that's not what you should do hcg which is always misused and then some people will put uh aromatase inhibitors thinking they're going to fix testosterone production all of these things
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
no no no don't do it just don't do it if you want to try something do try the natural testosterone booster the worst thing that could happen is you lose 50 bucks right right because it sucks the best thing that could happen is wow we got some alleviation here and we're avoiding all the problems yeah so rather lose 50 bucks and have a fucked up blood panel
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Okay, so I'm pretty sure that we talked about this, that I sat, that I was at the Eudaimonia Convention, which is a biohacking convention for anybody that, you know, isn't aware. And I went to what I was really excited to go to because I'm, you know, I know a pretty decent amount about GLPs, but I'm learning still in that learning phase because they're still newer and
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And I went to what I thought was a discussion on GLPs and what turned out to be an absolute slugfest of one side being so, so for them and the other side just thinking they were the end of the world, right? So, okay, let's, semaglutide is ozempic, correct? And then there's trisepatide, manjaro, and now there's ritruatide, which is the newest one, which is supposedly the strongest one.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
That's correct. Yes. I mean, basically, just GLP-1 is a glucagon-like peptide. And basically... What semaglutide is used for is treatment of type 2 diabetes, but then obviously we're using it for fat loss is what everybody's using it for now. And then there's the argument of everybody's taking it up away from the diabetes patients that need them, etc., Look, semaglutide has benefits.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
You and I talked about this beforehand. And one of the things, so JJ Virgin was the one that actually made all the sense when I was listening in because you had arguments like Jillian Michaels was on one end just losing her fucking mind about how terrible it was. And then these guys that are all science-based were talking about the benefits of it.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
When in reality, the microdosing benefit is what I find to be intriguing to where I was even going to consider using it. And we're talking about when you've got things that are going to help your liver, that are going to boost your immune system, functioning, things like that. I mean, I've seen people use it for cognitive help and that is huge. And it certainly does have glycemic control.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
I was being like a rep, like a supplement rep for a company. And they're the ones that were helping me to start the videos. Well, they brought to me, Hey, you know, you're doing this for us. We want you to start repping for research chemical companies. And I'm sitting there going, I don't know what in the hell a research chemical company is.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
I mean, it really does. That's what it's intended for. The problem is, is when you use this too long, here's, here's, here's what I gathered. The biggest problem is in what I've seen. you're using it too high or too long, all you're really doing is suppressing your appetite, right? So you're just eating far less, which is inducing the weight loss.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And I don't have the exact study numbers in front of me, but I believe what the science guys were talking about was that they were showing in the studies that after like six months of use, you were seeing about a 20% fat loss. And I believe after a year, it was even higher. It was like 25, I don't know. It was right there.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Anyway, the argument was is now they're putting like kids on this shit that are like six and seven years old and that they want you to take this for the rest of your life because guess what happens? You stop taking this. You're not only going to gain the weight back. You're going to gain more back. And that's the problem. So I would say the benefits are there. Yes. But the misuse is prevalent.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And then you see like, oh, Zempic face. And you can tell when people are overdoing it. And like, don't listen. It comes to politics. It comes to behavioral things. Don't do what a celebrity does because they're just another fucking person and they're just good at acting or singing or whatever the hell else it is. It doesn't mean they're smart. It doesn't mean that they're politically smart.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
It doesn't mean they're health conscious. It just means that they're good at fucking acting or singing and they probably don't know shit else. So please don't follow that at all. Follow the doctors, follow the science, not the assholes. True. There's my spiel. There's my spiel.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And I told him, I said, look, you know, I'm happy to take on all the work right now. And yeah, do whatever i can but i need to know what the hell i'm talking about so i start understanding because these research chemical companies say not for human use not for consumption right and i'm going like what am i doing here like what are you guys doing
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Yes, that is absolutely correct. And I hope people pay attention to that. Listen to your body, plain and simple. You know Jay Campbell, obviously, and me and him were talking about Manjaro at the Mr. Olympia, and he was giving me the most staggering numbers of how much was sold, and that did not factor in research chemical sites. That was just in general.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
It was in the billions, and I know how much research chemical sites sell of it. I will say this, and I've talked to Dr. Elizabeth Urth is one of the people that I am so fond of and close with. And so we have a like we have serious discussions a lot about shit. And I trust her very, very much when it comes to everything.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And she assured me that retruatide will be by far the strongest of these three by far. But it's not ready yet. Obviously, there's more stuff being done. But I will say that it definitely is going to be... It's kind of... So I asked her and I said, so I will look at it like this. First, there was Viagra. Then there was Cialis. Then there was Levitra.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And we just kept getting a little bit different mechanisms, a little bit more strength. So it's kind of similar to that with semaglutide, terzepatide, ritruatide. But I think ritruatide is going to be far stronger than the other two. So I don't have...
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
ton of data on it to go over and i don't have a ton of people that have used it i have recently been talking about it and there are people testing it out right now so when i have more data i'm going to put more out on it but i just know what i know that i've been told by some professionals

Yeah, it's very, very simple for me. Everything is just at Dylan Gemelli. It's just my first and last name. If you Google it, everything will pop up. Now, I will tell you this. Right now, my YouTube channel is called PE Fitness. That was Performance Enhancement Fitness. But I will be rebranding it to Dylan Gemelli Biohacking as soon as all my logos and everything are done. But it's easy to find.

EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And then one of my channels that was deleted before – I appealed it four years later and got it reinstated. And so that was just Dylan Gemelli fitness. I haven't updated that a lot, but I'm going to do a lot of my old style videos there and more newer stuff with more biohacking and more, all my podcast stuff will be there. So those are the easiest places to find me.

Well, I start to learn the ins and outs and the verbiage and how you can legally sell a lot of these things. It's a very, very gray area still to this day, right? And saying that something's used for research purposes, you can't say anything if you're selling these that has to do with results, bodybuilding. All you can really do is cite animal studies and talk about rats.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
And that's a whole nother story that people with their stupid verbiage, like, oh, I'm, you know, they ask you questions like, well, my pet rat wants to do this. And I'm like, listen, fucker, just ask me the question, but he's going to come knocking down your door because you're using a peptide, right? Right. So when I started, SARMs was my big thing, right? That's what I'm known for.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
That's my thing. But then I started to get into the peptide aspect. And when it started, we had ipamirelin, GHRP2, GHRP6, CJC1295, and melanotan too, you know, and that's... I guess like there was some semirelin hexarelins that were, people weren't really knowing the five, six that I just listed are what most everybody was talking about using and what I got educated on.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Yes. We're talking about like growth, releasing hormone. Oh, and HGH fragment. And that's basically just a fragment of HGH. And it was always known as weaker, but good for fat loss. So with peptides, like now you look at them and you're not thinking bodybuilders. You're not thinking that when you look at them. Back then, that was all that we were looking at.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Practitioners, clinics, they didn't know anything about them. I've talked to so many people that run practices and they always say, oh, the bodybuilders were ahead. Well, that's partially true, but the bodybuilders didn't know shit. You know, all they want to do is get big. They don't care about anything else at all.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
I'm talking and I don't want to say that about all of them because I got some good friends, but I'm talking. I speak with people that are I think are operating operating on a fraction of a brain cell because of all the shit they've taken.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
EPISODE 17: Dylan Gemelli featured on the Thyroid Fixer Podcast with Dr. Amie Hornaman
Well, and I think you'd agree too, like animal studies are great. We need studies, but that doesn't always relate to a human. And in fact, many times it does not. And one of the benefits of being in the community that I've been in for so long is that I'm able to observe people doing it on themselves. I will always go and cite my science and cite my studies.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast

But when people ask me, I will always tell them I'm going to take what I see real world and what I see constantly over hundreds and sometimes thousands of people that I've dealt with over the years, way more than some study that could be manipulated, flawed, done on an animal, had some sort of motive behind it.

Double blindness, this, this, this, all of this bullshit. You know what I care about? Somebody that's going, hey, I'm running X amount of this for eight weeks. I'm doing it like this. And this is what happened to me, you know? And I can develop some sort of consistent guideline off of that with the realization and understanding that all of us are different.

That's one of the things I would like to stress while we're doing this. And I don't mean to jump off topic just to anybody listening. I can go back and forth with with with you, Amy, and I can tell you, look. This is supposed to do this if you take this dose and this is what you can expect. But that does not always translate.

Because you've already hurt yourself and you may have to stop or you've created a problem. You want to mitigate the problem, be smart, slow, ease into it. And like I said, you can always add more, right? If you eat a whole cake, you can't take it back. If you take a little bite and go, okay, I can have a little bit more. Okay, fine, right?

You know, and I don't want to get all Confucius on here and everybody, but that's just practical reality of things.

So, but, but going back to the, the peptide aspect of it, the evolution's crazy. It really is. It has gone from like zero, I'd say zero to a hundred, zero to a million because once like I, I remember, and I started seeing a couple anti-aging clinics that, And I'd get these people on the bodybuilding forums and go, oh, I just got a prescription for ipamorelin.

You know, so I try to do things differently.
