⚡️ Revealing the toxic health effects of breast implant illness - and how to recover!
💬 “If you knew your breast implants would suppress your libido or lead to thyroid changes, how many would do that?” ~Dr Rob Whitfield
➡︎ Breast implants are massively toxic and can lead to a buildup of severe symptoms, from fatigue to hair loss and even autoimmune diseases. Breast implant illness is a real and potentially debilitating health issue - so what’s going on?
➡︎ As one of the most common cosmetic surgeries in the US, it’s important for women (and the men who love them) to know the facts about breast implants - and to understand how to recover and detoxify.
➡︎ Luckily, Dr Rob Whitfield is a world-renowned plastic surgeon who’s removed more than 3000 breast implants, helping his patients to come back from breast implant illness.
➡︎ In this episode, Tim and Rob discuss the link between implants and inflammation, and why they can lead to such a cascade of negative health impacts. They explore the insane, up to 800% rise in autoimmune diseases in women with implants. They even touch on whether it’s ok to use the sauna when you’ve got implants. All of this served with a dose of optimism as Rob explains you can recover from breast implant illness and clear your symptoms.

Detox the right way for skin health - how to support your liver and optimise your gut.
“By addressing the gut microbiome and slowly reducing the inflammatory components there, we start to see this distance being created between each skin infection.” -Jennifer Fugo
Does it feel like you’ve tried EVERYTHING to clear up your skin? If skin creams haven’t worked and detoxes are failing you, you’re not alone.
Whether you have acne, rashes, rosacea, or more severe forms of eczema and psoriasis, skin care products and medications alone aren’t enough to help you. You’ve got to look at your gut health, your liver function, your nutrition, and your lifestyle.

In this episode, Jennifer explains which supplements and foods you should be using for great skin health. The link between cytokines, inflammation, and “leaky skin”.

“There are some individual needs that every human being has. And if you can find that deficiency and put that raw material back into the human body, those people thrive in ways they never thought possible.” –Gary Brecka
You’re not just getting old. It’s not because your job is stressful or your kids are tiring you out. Your brain fog, weight gain, poor sleep, poor focus… They’re a sign that you're nutrient deficient.

Gary is a leading biohacker, professional human biologist, podcast host, co-founder of 10X Health, and the founder of The Ultimate Human.
Gary was a mortality expert for insurance companies for years, and could accurately predict the exact date of your death. But now he’s on a mission to uncover the safest and fastest way to optimise the mind, body, and spirit through modern science.
In this episode, Gary reveals the secrets of his $120,000 superhuman protocol, FOR FREE.

“Brain tumours and how it impacts children, and then fertility. We have a crisis worldwide in the Western nations. Quite simply, it’s draining our batteries.” –Nick Pineault
We’ve been led to believe that non-ionising EMF radiation from your mobile phone, Wi-Fi router, and Bluetooth headphones is safe – and if you disagree, you’re a conspiracy theorist. But that’s based on biassed, out-of-date research.
New research is in and it’s not good.
This type of radiation has been linked to cancer, infertility, insomnia, depression, and more!
So how do we avoid it when it’s all around us?
“The EMF Guy,” Nick Pineault, is THE go-to expert on the subject. He’s the author of The Non-Tinfoil Guide to EMFs: How to Fix Our Stupid Use of Technology. It’s a comprehensive look at the dangers of EMFs and what you can do to mitigate the effects of EMFs on your health.
In this episode, Nick explores the most up-to-date literature on the subject of EMFs, including the link between holding a phone to your head and brain tumours, how phones in your pocket can cause infertility, and how EMFs may be giving children behavioural problems.
He also offers practical tips on how to reduce your EMF exposure without having to ditch all your modern conveniences and plunge yourself back into the Stone Age.

“Freud was wrong. Penis envy is not the cause of anybody’s problem. It’s the brain. The thing you really want bigger, better, healthier, is your brain.” -Dr. Daniel Amen
Fast food, caffeine, alcohol, the news–these modern health disasters leave a physical imprint on our brains, that you can actually SEE on a brain scan.
Today’s guest, Dr. Daniel Amen, says mental health conditions like anxiety, depression and ADD are actually brain health issues, and knowing this makes them easier to treat, especially in our kids. For example, he gives these startling statistics:
54% of teenage girls report being persistently sad. 34% have thought of suicide. 24% have planned to kill themselves and 13% have tried.“This is unlike anything we have experienced in my lifetime, maybe ever,” he says. “It’s a shit show. And nobody’s talking about the actual physical health of their brain.”
Dr. Amen is a physician, and adult and child psychiatrist. He’s a 12-time New York Times bestselling author of numerous books, including Change Your Brain, Change Your Life; The End of Mental Illness; and Healing ADD.
He co-authored his newest title, Raising Mentally Strong Kids, with renowned child psychologist Charles Fay, Ph.D., president of the Love and Logic Institute, Inc.
Dr. Amen turned to psychiatry for help after his wife tried ending her life. He fell in love with the profession. But he realised it was the only medical speciality that doesn’t treat the organ itself. He set out on a mission to change that.
Since founding Amen Clinics, he’s scanned over 250,000 brains and created the world’s largest database of brain scans for psychiatry.
In this episode, Dr. Amen explains how the modern world is damaging the very structure of our brains, and reveals how we can start properly caring for this hidden organ. He explores the cognitive decline caused by fast food, alcohol, coffee, and obesity. And he shares the shocking truth of child mental illness, while teaching us all how to raise and parent mentally resilient kids.

Break anxiety, phobias, addictions and gain control over anything in your life with cognitive hypnotherapy.
“Potentially anything that the mind creates, cognitive hypnotherapy can help with” –Trevor Silvester
Can’t stop biting your nails? Constantly feeling down or anxious? Struggling to lose weight? Can’t kick that addiction? Try cognitive hypnotherapy!
When Trevor Silvester founded the Quest Institute, he introduced the idea of combining hypnosis with cognitive behavioural therapy, and the results have been extraordinary. This breakthrough method of therapy doesn’t just treat symptoms with a one–size–fits–all approach, it gets to the root cause of a person’s issues–and gives them the tools to gain control over anything in their life.
Trevor’s innovative therapy approach turned Tim’s life around, helping him sell a company, get into biohacking, and better understand those around him. That success compelled Tim to join Quest as a practitioner, and Trevor became his mentor for more than five years.
In this episode, Trevor explains the hypnotic language of wordweaving, a tool that gave Tim the life-changing line, “follow the fun.”
The conversation explores the different trance states we all live in, and how cognitive hypnotherapy isn’t about hypnotising you to get better, but de-hypnotising you from what you thought was wrong.
And, as Trevor explains, we each have the answer to solve our own problems locked within us.

(7:38) What IS cognitive hypnotherapy?
(14:01) Everyday trance states
(19:24) Yes, you CAN be hypnotised

“In the last two years, 50,000 peer reviewed nutrition studies were published. The point is to have 50,000 studies to confuse people. When you see a nutrition research study, it is almost certainly a marketing document for ultra processed food.” –Calley Means
