I think you could probably go back and track the stages of grief, probably that is what I went through. But I think if you do it right, you end up at acceptance. And that's where I ended up. And that's not to say that I've fully accepted the idea that the golden toad is extinct. Personally, I do still hold out hope that it could still be out there in those forests." - Trevor Ritland This conversation is with Trevor Ritland, who—along with his twin brother Kyle—authored The Golden Toad . The book chronicles their remarkable journey into Costa Rica’s cloud forest, once home to hundreds of brilliant golden toads that would emerge for just a few weeks each year—until, one day, they vanished without a trace. What began as a search for a lost species soon became something much more profound: a confrontation with ecological grief, a meditation on hope, and a powerful call to protect the natural world while we still can.

Send us a text In this episode of we explore two FDA-approved peptides—Sermorelin and Tesamorelin—that stimulate the body’s own production of human growth hormone (HGH). Unlike direct HGH supplementation, these compounds work by mimicking natural growth hormone-releasing hormones (GHRH), helping restore HGH levels that naturally decline with age. We explain the biology behind these peptides, their clinical applications in the longevity and healthspan space, and how they’re distinct from controversial or unsafe hormone use. We discuss key lab markers like IGF-1 and prolactin to monitor treatment effectiveness, and emphasizes the importance of working with a qualified healthcare provider to ensure safe and personalized use.

Send us a text In this episode of Decoding Health , the team dives deep into the science behind protein consumption and muscle building , challenging long-standing beliefs about how much protein the body can effectively absorb. Backed by studies from reputable journals like Cell Reports and Frontiers in Nutrition , they reveal that the body can utilize much more protein than traditionally believed—up to 100 grams in a single sitting— as long as there is a biological demand . The conversation covers the importance of timing (especially when breaking a fast), high-quality protein intake , and how factors like age, metabolic health, obesity, and type 2 diabetes influence anabolic resistance. Listeners also learn that short, distributed workouts can still create enough stimulus for muscle growth. This evidence-based discussion empowers individuals to rethink their nutrition habits, especially when trying to gain or preserve muscle. Are you eager to explore more about health and wellness?

Send us a text In this insightful episode, we dive deep into Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1) —the powerful compound released by the liver in response to human growth hormone (hGH). Often called the "workhorse" of hGH, IGF-1 is responsible for driving cellular growth, repair, and regeneration. You'll learn how IGF-1 functions in the body, why it's a top performance-enhancing drug in sports (and banned by WADA), and why oral IGF-1 supplements are ineffective. We cover the therapeutic uses of IGF-1, including its impact on insulin sensitivity, cardiovascular protection, muscle mass, and bone density. We explore modified forms like IGF-1 LR3, which offer longer half-lives for extended benefit. Finally, we caution listeners on the risks of misuse—including insulin resistance and potential cancer proliferation—highlighting the importance of medical supervision when considering IGF-1 therapies.

Boosting Mitochondrial Function with a Ketogenic Diet with Dr. Anthony Chaffee 1:09:23

Send us a text In this episode of Decoding Health , Dr. Anthony Chaffee challenges conventional nutrition wisdom, explaining why carbohydrates aren't actually essential for human health. We explore how various lifestyle factors damage the mitochondria and why mitochondrial health is crucial for longevity and disease prevention. Dr. Chaffee dives into how ketogenic diets can enhance mitochondrial function and even help combat autoimmune diseases through the carnivore diet. Finally, he highlights a surprising statistic: nearly a third of the population may be deficient in carnitine, an essential nutrient for energy metabolism and overall vitality. This conversation pushes against outdated dietary norms and opens the door to new possibilities for optimizing health through smarter nutrition choices. Dr Anthony Chaffee is an American medical doctor currently practicing in Australia who, over a span of over 20 years, has researched the optimal nutrition for human performance and health. It is his assertion that most of the so-called chronic diseases we treat as doctors are caused by the food we eat, or don't eat, and can be reversed with dietary changes to a species specific diet.

Send us a text In this Decoding Health episode, we break down the trending topic of methylene blue and its emerging role in biohacking for longevity and health optimization. Originally a fabric dye later adapted for medical use in tissue staining and treatments for cancer and neurological disorders, methylene blue is now being explored for its ability to enhance mitochondrial function, boost metabolism, and support cognitive performance through its redox properties. The episode stresses the importance of using pharmaceutical-grade, third-party-tested products due to contamination risks and highlights that oral use is considered off-label. Practical tips are shared, like diluting methylene blue with lemon juice to prevent mouth staining, while also noting side effects like blue or green urine. Listeners are encouraged to do their own research, start slowly, and consult a healthcare provider if considering use, as biohacking responsibly is the key to maximizing benefits without unnecessary risks.

Send us a text In this episode of Decoding Health , Dr. Urban A. Kiernan dives into the concept of ectopic fat —fat that accumulates in places it doesn’t belong, like muscle tissue, the liver, and even immune cells. He explains how this misplaced fat impairs metabolic function and weakens the immune system, particularly T killer cells , which are responsible for fighting cancer. Research has shown that obesity and insulin resistance create the perfect storm for cancer development by rendering immune cells ineffective. Dr. Kiernan also highlights the critical role of lean muscle mass in maintaining metabolic health, emphasizing that resistance training —not just cardio—is now being incorporated into cancer treatment protocols to improve outcomes. Tune in to learn how building and maintaining muscle can help combat metabolic dysfunction and support immune function in the fight against disease.
