Can We Regrow Joints and Reverse Inflammaging? New Research Suggests YES

What New Research Says About Cartilage Regeneration and Joint Longevity

Osteoarthritis affects millions—chronic pain, limited mobility, and a dramatically reduced quality of life. But what if the answer isn’t just about treating the joint, but the inflammation driving the damage? In today’s episode, Kiran Krishnan, a leading microbiologist and advisor to Calroy Health Sciences, unveils a groundbreaking approach to joint health. He explains how chronic low-grade inflammation fuels osteoarthritis and accelerates joint degeneration. Even more exciting? Cartigenix, a revolutionary product combining unique extracts from celery seed and Boswellia, is showing real potential to regenerate cartilage, reduce pain, and improve mobility. Kiran also dives into the fascinating link between osteoarthritis and cardiovascular disease, why supporting liver health plays a crucial role in optimizing joint repair and how preventative strategies like Cartigenix can protect your joints before they start to decline. This episode could change everything you know about managing inflammation and joint health—don’t miss it!

What Your Mitochondria Wish You Knew: A Look Inside Cutting-Edge Mitochondrial Science

Hidden Mitochondria Problems Are Accelerating Your Age & Draining Your Health

What if the key to reversing chronic disease, slowing cognitive decline, and boosting energy lies in the tiny powerhouses inside your cells—and we’ve finally found a way to protect them? We know mitochondria power our cells, but did you know they also create oxidative stress as they generate energy? Protecting mitochondrial health is critical—but most antioxidants can’t reach inside the mitochondria where protection is needed most—until now. MitoQ, a scientifically advanced, mitochondria-targeted antioxidant developed by visionary researchers in New Zealand penetrates mitochondria up to 90%, offering protection where it’s needed most. In this episode with Dr. Siobhan Mitchell, we dive into how MitoQ is transforming the way we tackle chronic disease, inflammation, and cognitive decline. From improving heart health to supporting brain function, MitoQ is changing the game. It’s something I’m using personally and recommending to most of my patients. Listen in to discover how this powerful tool can help you support your patients at the cellular level—before symptoms even appear. ~DrKF

Cutting Edge Interventions For Patients with Adverse Food Reactions with Dr. Tom Fabian

Cutting-Edge Metabolomic Testing for IBS, Longevity, and Metabolic Health

We’re witnessing an exciting shift in how we understand gut health and disease—and it’s all thanks to the powerful metabolites produced by the microbiome, like short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and secondary bile acids. In today’s episode, Dr. Tom Fabian shares groundbreaking insights into how these postbiotics influence intestinal barrier integrity, immune balance, and even muscle regeneration. These compounds are also connected to key processes like glucose metabolism and healthy aging. What’s truly fascinating is how this science is opening up new frontiers in treating IBS, metabolic conditions, and chronic gut issues. With the upcoming launch of Diagnostic Solution Laboratories’ StoolOMX test an add-on to the GI-MAP, we now have a tool to measure these metabolites in clinical practice, making personalized and effective treatments more attainable. This is a pivotal moment in functional medicine that you don’t want to miss.

Akkermansia: A Keystone Microbe for Longevity and Metabolism

This GLP-1-Supporting Probiotic Is A Constant In Our Longevity Stack

Join me and Dr. Colleen Cutcliffe, my brilliant friend, scientist, and the powerhouse CEO of Pendulum, for our deepest dive yet into all things Akkermansia. This free-flowing conversation will take your understanding of this extraordinary strain to a whole new level. We’ll explore Akkermansia’s pivotal role in metabolic health—think cravings, weight regulation, A1C—and why we’re deficient in the first place. Plus, we’ll discuss its connection to stress, anxiety, and even neurodegenerative diseases. We’ll also dive into the hotly debated topic of Akkermansia’s impact on MS, unpacking both sides of the controversy. And, we’ll touch on its promising influence on hormonal balance, from infertility to menopause. As someone who’s deeply invested in science, I’m personally bullish on Akkermansia and trust Pendulum’s products as part of my own foundational health stack. With groundbreaking science and fresh insights, this episode will change the way you approach your practice. ~DrKF

NAD+ in the Spotlight: New Insights on Boosting Cellular Resilience

NAD+ in the Spotlight: New Insights on Boosting Cellular Resilience

I’m really excited about this one—Dr. Greg Kelly is back with us, and we’re diving deep into NAD, a molecule that’s finally getting the attention it deserves. If you’ve heard me talk about NAD before, you know how foundational it is for energy, longevity, and cellular health, but I’ve got to say—after today’s conversation, I’m looking at it in a whole new way. Dr. Kelly brings a fresh perspective on how NAD influences mitochondrial function, DNA repair, and even the aging process. He’s challenging the way we think about aging, and I’m here for it. For me, NAD is no longer just a side player—it’s going front and center in my supplement stack. If you’re wondering how it might show up clinically, whether it’s in fatigue or other signs of cellular stress, you’ll want to listen in. And if you’re like me, you’ll be adding this one to your regular routine. Have a listen and get ready to rethink how you approach aging and energy. ~DrKF

An HRT Revolution is Underway. Are You Ready to Individualize Recommendations for Hormone Health?

“What if the key to optimizing hormone therapy isn’t just in the hormones themselves, but in understanding the way they break down in the body?” In today’s episode, I’m thrilled to share my conversation with Dr. Allison Smith, a leader in hormone testing and a trusted expert at Precision Analytical, home of the DUTCH test. Dr. Smith’s work has helped revolutionize how we understand hormones, moving beyond simple serum testing to more comprehensive methods that examine how hormones are metabolized and how their breakdown products affect patient health.

Beyond Retinol: The Role of Urolithin A in Aging and Skin Health

Beyond Retinol: The Role of Urolithin A in Aging and Skin Health

Talking with Dr. Julie Faitg was a powerful reminder of just how much we’re discovering about mitochondria and aging. When you pair an elite mitochondrial scientist with a breakthrough nutrient like Urolithin A, the insights go beyond what you’d expect. Julie gives us this incredible look into how we can actually change the course of aging at the cellular level. This conversation made me rethink what we know about supporting long-term health and resilience, and I think it will do the same for you.
