We’re outnumbered, folks! The estimated number of insects to humans is 200 million to one. This is a battle we will most definitely lose. Yet, we try in vain. In this hive of insect activity, repellents can help you steer clear of nasty stings and bites. But is our reliance on bug sprays harming our health?
Mosquitos are a pest!Every year, a third of us will cover ourselves with almost five pounds of bug repellent to keep those blood-thirsty bugs at bay. Okay, so there is a good reason to do so. After all, there are many mosquito and tick-transmitted diseases to ward off: West Nile virus, malaria, and Lyme Disease, to name a couple. So, I’m not here to tell you that protecting yourself from bites isn’t important. But, if the repellent you’re using can fend off mosquitoes, maybe what it’s doing to you isn’t so great either.
In this Fatal Conveniences™, I break down the most common toxic chemicals lurking in insect repellents, such as DEET (N, N-Diethyl-3-methylbenzamide), the granddaddy of them all. I also explain how these repellents affect children and the simple things you can do today to keep insects away without sacrificing your health.
Bugs, insects, insects, Insecta, or insectum—whatever you call our hexapod invertebrates, these creepy critters are vital for our ecosystems. So, finding non-harmful, preventative alternatives is crucial for the survival of not only us as a species but also this incredible planet that we live on.

You may feel that you get more oxygen when you breathe in through your mouth, but the science shows, it’s just not true.
In the latest episode of The Darin Olien Show, I sit down with Patrick McKeown from Oxygen Advantage, to discuss the fascinating connections between nose breathing, facial aesthetics, and overall health. We begin by discussing how choosing a good-looking face is related to proper breathing and delve into the problems associated with mouth breathing. Our conversation goes over the high-level functions of the nose and the importance of conscious deep breathing, including when and why to do it.
We introduce the concept of hyperoxygenation and the BOLT (body oxygen level test) and explore various ways to improve oxygen saturation. We also discuss the consequences of not breathing properly and what you might be missing out on.
Throughout the episode, we emphasize the importance of proper breathing techniques and their impact on various aspects of our lives, from physical health and appearance to mental well-being and success.
Patrick McKeown grew up with debilitating asthma. In 1998, he found an article in an Irish newspaper about the Buteyko breathing method. He tried the exercise to unblock his nose and was struck by how well it worked. Since then, he has become a leading expert on breathing and an advocate for its health benefits.
What we discuss…
4:00 Choosing a good looking face due to breathing
9:00 The problem of mouth breathing
13:06 High level functions of the nose
25:30 Conscious deep breathing- when and why to do it
32:40 Hyperoxygenation and the BOLT (body oxygen level test)37:37 Ways to improve oxygen saturation
47:55 What you’re missing by not breathing properly
57:47 How we got to a place of high toxins, but we still give in
1:07:10 Our education system is flawed
1:10:30 Patrick’s biggest vision

Do you blindly assume that big brand companies have your back when it comes to testing the safety of their products? You shouldn't. Your health depends on it.
In the latest episode of The Darin Olien Show, I sit down with Leah Segedie from Mamavation, as we take a skeptical look at major companies, even those marketing themselves as clean and organic. We answer questions about whether they are truly prioritizing consumer well-being. Leah argues that profit motive often takes precedence over proper safety testing and responsible practices.
We discuss greenwashing and deceptive "natural" claims that are misleading marketing tactics to prey on consumer trust. We go over the fact that companies need to be more transparent and held accountable for creating safe products, putting people before profits.
Overall, we urge listeners to think critically, dig deeper when evaluating "organic" claims, and use their purchasing power to support companies that are honest and responsible. We advocate for consumers to take charge of their health by demanding better from brands
Leah Segedie helps women make safer consumer choices for their families. She’s a consumer watchdog, author, activist, community organizer, & strategist. Leah founded award-winning consumer activist website Mamavation.com and the leading eco-friendly influencer conference, ShiftCon Social Media Conference. She also wrote Green Enough: Eat Better, Live Cleaner, Be Happier (All Without Driving Your Family Crazy!) to democratize scientific findings and help families make safer & greener product choices.
What we discuss…
Leah’s start in safer choices due to family
You can’t assume products are safe
Some manufacturers are just naive
Surprising places you’ll find toxic materials
The only way to change is for the entire industry to come together
Sperm health is down 50% in virility because of phthalates
Creating a better world
The most toxic bathroom item
Led in Stanley cups
What Leah’s most concerned about

Did you know that a healthy anti-inflammatory diet can benefit various organs throughout your body? From your heart and lungs to your brain, the right nutrition can slow down the aging process and reduce the risk of chronic diseases.
In the latest episode of The Darin Olien Show, I sit down with the author of How Not To Die and How Not To Age, Michael Greger. We discuss this nation’s major inflammation and age related disease issues and how they come from an ultra processed food diet. We go over how to boost our body’s natural cellular recycling process with simple lifestyle changes.
In our discussion, we emphasize the importance of evidence based research and how companies and consumers should make some modern day lifestyle changes. With simple changes, we could drastically reduce age related diseases. Our conversation dives into misconceptions with aging as well as the healing power of natural foods.
Michael Greger, M.D., is a physician and internationally recognized speaker on nutrition. His science-based nonprofit, NutritionFacts.org, offers a free online portal hosting more than 2,000 videos and articles on myriad health topics. Dr. Greger is a sought-after lecturer and has presented at the Conference on World Affairs and the World Bank, testified before Congress, and was invited as an expert witness in Oprah Winfrey’s defense in the infamous “meat defamation” trial. A graduate of Cornell University School of Agriculture and Tufts University School of Medicine, Dr. Greger is also an acclaimed author. How Not to Die, The How Not to Die Cookbook, How Not to Diet, and How Not to Age became instant New York Times Best Sellers. More than a million copies of How Not to Die have been sold.

When you’re done using a product and throw it in the trash or recycling - do you think about what happens to it?
Aluminum - this lightweight metal is embedded in countless products, from soda cans to jets. But even with aluminum's recyclability, inefficient practices mean we keep producing new aluminum instead of reusing what we've already produced. It's a vicious cycle.
In the latest episode of The Darin Olien Show, I sit down with Dr. Saleem Ali, Professor of Energy and the Environment, to provide an insightful examination of aluminum, highlighting its omnipresence in our lives and the complex relationship humanity has with this abundant metal. We examine the pros and cons of aluminum use, from its critical role in various industries to its alarming presence in our bodies, and consider the environmental implications of its widespread application and the need for improved recycling practices and alternative materials.
Dr. Ali also shares his insights on how science and environmental concerns are often overshadowed by politics and the concept of circularity, inspired by Barry Commoner's ecological laws, and how thinking in circles can apply to both personal consumption and business models.
Dr. Saleem Ali is is the Blue & Gold Distinguished Professor of Energy and the Environment at the University of Delaware, UN International Resource Panelist, National Geographic Explorer, and author exploring sustainable resource use through books like "Earthly Order” and his new book “Soil to Foil: Aluminum and the Quest for Industrial Sustainability”.
What we discuss…
(06:19) The truth about aluminum and sustainable use practices
(12:51) Transportation and sustainability in modern society
(24:51) Scientific cooperation in international relations and navigating crisis together
(44:07) Empowering sustainable lifestyle choices in a world of conveniences
(49:35) Nuclear energy and environmental myths
(54:26) The impacts of the sharing economy on our environment
(01:05:31) Nonprofit models for public knowledge and finding democratic solutions to challenges
(01:20:26) Hope for innovation in Africa

Detoxing isn't just about flushing toxins - it's a journey of liberation. By purging the body of harmful substances, you're unburdening your mind from the shackles of trauma, anxiety and depression.
Committing for the long-haul unlocks more than just physical health - it allows you to become deeply connected to your instincts and inner voice in a way you’ve never experienced.
In the latest episode of The Darin Olien Show, I sit down with Josh Macin as he shares his harrowing journey through severe mental health struggles, the conventional pharmaceutical treatments that failed him, and his ultimate quest for healing in the Amazon with ayahuasca and other alternative therapies. We discuss the significance of a gut healing protocol, reclaiming your health through intense detoxification methods, and the alarming decline in men's testosterone levels.

The sparkling water market has boomed in the last decade, making carbonated water all the rage.
While fizzy water seems like a healthy alternative to sugary sodas, it may not be as healthy as you think it is. Sure, sparkling water is fun to drink. Those fizzing bubbles mimic the carbonation of soda, making seltzer a great way to kick the pop habit. However, carbonated bubbles are made using carbon dioxide, the same gas your kidneys and lungs work so hard to expel from your body. So is sparkling water bad for you? When it comes to hydration, it’s best to kick that fizzy habit and stick to the real stuff.

What if we could slow down the physical aging process and age better, healthier, and stronger?
Thankfully, there is something we can start doing that will make a drastic impact: Boosting NAD+ in our bodies.
NAD+ is a molecule found in every cell of your body that is involved in all cellular processes in your body, works to boost cellular repair, helps neutralize free radicals and reduce oxidative stress, and so much more.
NAD+ levels naturally decline with age, and research suggests that this decline may contribute to age-related diseases. Hence, boosting NAD+ in the body helps to reverse aging at the cellular level.
In the latest episode of The Darin Olien Show, I sit down with Dr. Charles Brenner to explore the fascinating science around NAD+ supplementation for optimal health, no matter our age. We discuss the fact that there’s no one single hormone that extends lifespan, and the personal importance of staying physically capable to handle life's challenges.
He also shares some fascinating new research on NAD+ supplementation for family health, treatment for heart failure, and helping speed up healing.
Dr. Charles Brenner is a research pioneer in the area of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD). NAD+ is vital in the creation of energy in every cell of your body and is intrinsic to the aging process. Dr. Brenner leads groundbreaking clinical trials on NAD+, focusing on its maternal and neonatal effects and translating animal model findings into safe, evidence-based clinical practices for human metabolic stress conditions.
What we discuss…
(00:00) - Exploring the wild west of supplements (& what to look for)
(11:12) - Anti-aging science & the important role of NAD+
(23:29) - Debunking longevity myths
(36:50) - The relationship between sleep, alcohol consumption, and NAD+ levels
(50:26) - The impressive potential of supplementation for family health
(01:10:21) - How NAD+ impacts skin health (& more promising science!)
(01:26:41) - The pitfalls of extreme dieting and pushing your body to ketosis
(01:35:13) - The connecting between carbs, fat storage, and disease
