Medical

Throughout my training and practice as a physician I have come to one very disappointing conclusion: Western medicine isn’t helping people lead better lives. Now that I’ve realized this, I’ve become obsessed with understanding what makes us healthy or ill. I want to live the best life I can and I want to be able to share this knowledge with others so that they can do the same. This podcast is the result of my relentless search to understand the roots of chronic disease. I hope you’ll join me on this journey.

263. Why I Changed My Mind About Hydrogen Water (with Tyler LeBaron)

7/28/2025
Ever wondered why a molecule as simple as hydrogen could influence everything from Parkinson's to metabolic syndrome? We explored how molecular hydrogen selectively targets only the most harmful free radicals while leaving beneficial ones alone, making it fundamentally different from every other antioxidant supplement gathering dust in your cabinet. The six-month metabolic syndrome study particularly caught my attention: participants drinking hydrogen water saw improvements in glucose levels, HbA1c, inflammation markers, and even lost weight – with no diet changes or exercise requirements. Tyler breaks down why those expensive alkaline water machines aren't doing what you think (spoiler: it's not about pH), why hydrogen inhalation requires serious safety considerations, and exactly how to dose hydrogen water for maximum benefit. And on top of all this, we tackle why this primordial molecule – literally present since the beginning of the universe – seems almost designed to work with human biology, and why megadoses of vitamins C and E can actually harm exercise performance while hydrogen acts as a fine-tuning modulator.

For years, a loophole meant for simple ingredients like salt became a highway for countless additives. I sat down with the FDA's Deputy Commissioner for Food to get the inside story on their shift from reactive to proactive. We dive into how they're closing the 'generally recognized as safe' (GRAS) loophole, establishing a new framework to re-evaluate substances already in our food, and why ingredients like food dyes—offering no nutritional value—are facing a reckoning.

260. What This White House Report Reveals About Our Toxic Food w/ Vani Hari

🗞️ Newsletter — Reclaim Your Optimal Health: https://www.paulsaladinomd.co/sign-up Find out your ideal diet with my ANIMAL-BASED CALCULATOR: https://www.paulsaladinomd.co/ab-guide Last week, I had the privilege of attending a press conference at the White House where I got the opportunity to sit down with Vani Hari. Vani has been one of the leaders in the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) movement, advocating for food transparency and reducing chemical additives. It's staggering to realize we're exposed to things like 500% more glyphosate and tens of thousands more chemicals in our environment and food supply compared to many other developed nations, directly impacting why so many of us struggle with health. In this podcast, I'm diving into these uncomfortable truths with Vanni, including insights from a pivotal new report, about this 'chemical soup.' We uncover how these substances aren't just present, but are often engineered to hijack your brain, making the old 'calories in, calories out' mantra very misleading. Huge thanks to Vani for taking the time to sit down and shed light on this issue.

Prior to the event, I had the opportunity to sit down with RFK Jr. for a podcast conversation focused on the root causes of chronic illness and the strategies being proposed to reverse this health crisis. Today, American children face a dual burden of obesity and malnutrition. Autism rates have surged from 1 in 10,000 to an astonishing 1 in 31, and nearly 40% of teenagers are already on the path toward developing diabetes.

Everything You Need to Know About Honey & Bees (with Eric Mason)

I sat down with my friend Eric Mason from Save the Bee to talk about just how crucial these insects are—pollinating one in every three bites of food we consume and 70% of agricultural crops—while a single worker bee produces a mere twelfth of a teaspoon of honey in its lifetime. In our conversation we uncover the alarming extent of honey adulteration and contamination with substances like glyphosate and neonicotinoids, which impact the bee's gut biome in ways that echo human health concerns. And you'll also understand the immense pressure industrial agriculture, like the almond industry's reliance on 88% of U.S. managed bees, puts on these creatures, turning pollination events into 'pathogen Super Bowls.' So this discussion will equip you to better identify genuine, beneficial honey, grasp the significance of a pesticide-free foraging radius for bees, and see why their well-being is a direct reflection of our planet's health.--- --- ---If you can't get fresh heart & liver in your diet, try our 100% grass-fed desiccated beef organs at Heart & Soil: https://shop.heartandsoil.co/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=Honey_EricMasonLooking for a healthy and delicious snack?

257. Exposing The Cholesterol Myth Doctors Won't Admit w/ Dr. Philip Ovadia

5/6/2025
🗞️ Newsletter — Reclaim Your Optimal health: https://www.paulsaladinomd.co/sign-up?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=DrOvadia--- --- ---Ever wonder why your LDL cholesterol might shoot up after you started eating healthier, cutting out seed oils and sugar, and your doctor freaked out?It's a common story, and the panic often misses the crucial context. In this conversation with Dr. Ovadia we dive deep into why that single LDL number doesn't tell the whole story about your heart disease risk. Because understanding your insulin sensitivity, inflammation levels, and even getting specific imaging like a CAC scan paints a far more accurate picture. So even the intense focus on lowering ApoB might be too simplistic, potentially overlooking the root causes of atherosclerosis and the significant downsides of certain medications. Hearing directly from a cardiothoracic surgeon who sees the consequences of system failures daily will honestly reveal highlights why a different approach, focused on metabolic health, is desperately needed. So if you've been scared by high cholesterol numbers despite feeling better than ever, this conversation provides critical insights and questions the conventional narrative.--- --- ---If you can't get fresh heart & liver in your diet, try our 100% grass-fed desiccated beef organs at Heart & Soil: https://shop.heartandsoil.co/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=DrOvadiaLooking for a healthy and delicious snack?

In this podcast, we explore the growing health movement and the urgent need to reform our food systems. As a long-time advocate for ancestral health, we discuss the concerning influence of corporate interests and flawed medical narratives.We delve into the dangers of seed oils, which disrupt cellular function and mitochondrial health, causing metabolic issues. I share a strategy for detoxing seed oils quickly using a low linoleic acid diet. We also emphasize the importance of natural light, grounding, and ancestral practices, aligning with our evolutionary biology for optimal health.I share my 2025 "ins and outs," prioritizing real foods like meat, organs, fruit, honey, and raw dairy while minimizing EMF exposure. I advocate for whole, unprocessed foods and caution against trends like methylene blue. For me, it's always meat, organs, fruit, honey, and raw dairy – an ANIMAL-BASED diet, which I believe is optimal.This inspiring conversation encourages personal responsibility, questioning norms, and reclaiming our radical health. --- --- --- 00:00 Introduction to Reposted Podcast 00:30 Seed Oil Detox & 2025 Changes 01:07 Dr. Saladino on Cultural Health Movement 01:38 2025 Health Predictions 03:55 Political Momentum for Health Change 06:37 Simplifying Food Choices & Ingredients 10:54 Food Addiction & Processed Foods 13:33 Food as Fuel vs. Harmful Addiction 17:41 Discerning Food from Poison 21:49 Misalignment of Genetics & Modern Food 23:55 Challenging Beliefs & Neurobiology 27:38 Benefits & Science of Creatine 32:17 The Harms of Seed Oils 42:40 Mechanistic Damages of Seed Oils 54:44 Detoxing Seed Oils 1:03:59 Light Diet & Cellular Health 1:07:44 Reconnecting to Ancestral Roots 1:11:47 Paul's In's & Out's for 2025 1:17:13 One Trend Paul Would Like to Die 1:20:09 Paul's Parting Words & 2025 Projects --- --- --- DISCLAIMERDr. Paul Saladino received his medical degree from the University of Arizona Medical School.

In this in-depth conversation with Calley Means, we dissect the root causes of the chronic disease epidemic and explore the political forces shaping our health landscape. This is a powerful discussion on the economic incentives driving chronic illness, the rise of the Make America Healthy Again movement, and the importance of real food.
