Describes several serious illnesses that can develop silently for years, including high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, kidney disease, colon cancer, and atherosclerosis. These conditions often cause no noticeable symptoms until the body has already suffered major damage—sometimes 75–90%—which is why they are frequently discovered late. The explanation emphasizes that many early warning signs are mistakenly dismissed as normal aging, and that traditional approaches often focus only on treating symptoms rather than addressing the underlying causes. It concludes by outlining four core habits suggested for preventing or improving these hidden conditions:Exercise, particularly training that includes brief periods of low oxygen.Low-carb eating combined with intermittent fasting to stabilize insulin and reduce inflammation.Consistent, high-quality sleep to support recovery and hormone balance.Regular exposure to nature, which helps reduce stress and improve overall health.These habits are presented as long-term strategies to lower risk and support the body before damage becomes severe.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/doctor_next_doorProduced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
Emphasizes that magnesium is a critical yet often overlooked nutrient essential for heart health and overall bodily function. It links magnesium deficiency to four major heart issues: plaque buildup, blood clots, atrial fibrillation, and hypertension, noting that deficiency is hard to detect via standard blood tests. Magnesium is described as a natural alternative to certain heart medications, functioning as a calcium channel blocker, adrenaline reducer, and vasodilator without side effects. The video also highlights that low magnesium impairs Vitamin D3 effectiveness and is widespread due to the prevalence of ultra-processed foods in modern diets.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/doctor_next_doorProduced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
Emphasizes that grass-fed red meat is an exceptionally nutrient-dense food, providing high-quality protein, essential minerals like iron and zinc, and compounds that support muscle building and blood sugar regulation via glucagon. The speaker challenges the idea that red meat causes disease, stating there is no evidence linking it to cancer or heart attacks. He also highlights the Protein Leverage Hypothesis, explaining that inadequate protein intake drives overeating, and underscores protein’s vital role in forming collagen, enzymes, and hormones.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/doctor_next_doorProduced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
Explains that many gluten-free products can be more harmful than gluten itself because they often contain refined starches, sugars, and seed oils, which can lead to gut inflammation, SIBO, fatty liver, skin problems, and mental health issues. It warns about chemical processing used to remove gluten and the high glycemic impact of substitute flours like rice and tapioca. The video recommends focusing on whole foods, fermented foods, or a temporary carnivore diet to support gut health and emphasizes that “gluten-free” does not automatically mean healthy, urging careful label reading.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/doctor_next_doorProduced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
Explains how high carbohydrate and sugar intake can lead to vitamin B1 (thiamine) deficiency, causing symptoms like restless leg syndrome, insomnia, fluid retention, brain fog, nerve issues, and mood changes. It highlights the importance of B1 for nervous system function and energy production, and recommends the natural, fat-soluble form (allithiamine) over synthetic thiamine for better absorption. Pork and organ meats are identified as the best dietary sources.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/doctor_next_doorProduced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
Highlights the dangers of PFAS (“forever chemicals”), which are widespread in the environment and linked to cancer, hormonal imbalances, and other health issues. The speaker criticizes inadequate testing and regulation, noting loopholes that allow continued exposure. To reduce harm, two main strategies are recommended: limit exposure using effective water filters, and support the body’s natural detoxification through practices like sweating, fasting, and consuming foods rich in sulfur and trace minerals.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/doctor_next_doorProduced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
Presents an overview of dietary supplements for supporting various health conditions. The speaker emphasizes natural remedies, noting that traditional research may be biased against them. Core recommendations focus on the synergistic combination of Vitamin D3 and Magnesium, along with co-factors like Zinc and Vitamin K2, highlighting their benefits for autoimmune conditions, chronic pain, and migraines. Additional supplements discussed include Betaine HCl for digestion, Zinc Carnosine for ulcers, Selenium for immune support, and other targeted nutrients for issues such as anxiety, kidney stones, and high cholesterol. The speaker stresses specific forms and higher dosages for optimal effectiveness.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/doctor_next_doorProduced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
Highlights the essential role of vitamin K2 in regulating calcium in the body. Its main function is to remove calcium from soft tissues like arteries and joints and direct it to bones and teeth, helping prevent osteoporosis and arterial calcification. Vitamin K2 can be obtained from foods such as Natto and grass-fed dairy, or converted from vitamin K1 in leafy greens, assuming the gut contains the necessary microbes. Magnesium is critical for K2 to work effectively, while factors like antibiotics or a low-fat diet can impair its function. The transcript recommends using the MK7 form of vitamin K2 and following a specific ratio with vitamin D3 when supplementing.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/doctor_next_doorProduced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
Explains how food labeling can be misleading, allowing harmful ingredients to be hidden from consumers. It covers the "rounding rule," which lets manufacturers list under 500 mg of substances like trans fats or MSG as zero, effectively masking their presence. The discussion also highlights incidental additives, such as the neurotoxic solvent hexane, used in processing but often not disclosed on labels. Additionally, it addresses hidden sugars like maltodextrin and dextrose, which can spike blood sugar despite products being labeled “sugar-free.” A practical tip is also shared: using a simple iodine test to detect starches like maltodextrin in foods and supplements.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/doctor_next_doorProduced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
Explains that autoimmune diseases are rapidly becoming a leading global health concern, often overlooked in terms of their root causes. It distinguishes between the innate and acquired immune systems, emphasizing that autoimmune issues arise from dysfunction in the acquired system, particularly due to low regulatory T-cell levels. Conventional treatments like prednisone broadly suppress the immune system but carry side effects such as elevated blood sugar and bone loss. In contrast, Vitamin D is highlighted for its ability to selectively boost regulatory T-cells and reduce inflammatory immune activity without these harmful effects. The transcript also advocates for high-dose Vitamin D therapy with supporting nutrients like magnesium and Vitamin K2 as an effective, underutilized strategy for immune regulation, noting that its use may be limited by lack of profitability in mainstream medicine.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/doctor_next_doorProduced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
Discusses the dangers of ultra-processed starches, highlighting that they can be more harmful to blood sugar and overall health than refined sugar. It explains that carbohydrates include both beneficial fiber and harmful simple sugars and starches, with highly processed forms like corn starch and maltodextrin causing rapid blood sugar spikes, which may lead to insulin resistance and diabetes. These starches are criticized for lacking protein, fat, and fiber to buffer glucose spikes, contributing to vitamin and mineral depletion, and feeding pathogenic gut bacteria, potentially resulting in Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO). The transcript also briefly mentions the use of magnesium powder as a supportive supplement in this context.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/doctor_next_doorProduced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
Provides various unconventional strategies to look younger. It emphasizes that moderate sun exposure, especially the non-UV spectrum, can boost Vitamin D and nitric oxide, and suggests that avoiding the sun completely may contribute to skin problems. The text warns against many commercial skin products due to their harmful chemicals and advises against excessive face washing with soap or using chlorinated tap water. Furthermore, it highlights methods to support skin health and anti-aging, including cold immersion therapy, facial exercises, general physical activity, and consuming the probiotic L. reuteri to enhance the “health hormone” oxytocin.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/doctor_next_doorProduced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
Emphasizes Vitamin D’s vital role in cancer prevention and support during treatment. It explains that Vitamin D promotes the self-destruction of damaged cells, regulates abnormal cell growth, and counters cancer-favorable conditions such as inflammation, acidity, and low oxygen. Cancer itself can suppress Vitamin D activity by blocking absorption, preventing conversion to its active form, and producing parathyroid hormone-like substances that raise calcium and reduce Vitamin D effectiveness. The speaker recommends high daily doses of Vitamin D (≈50,000 IUs) with cofactors like magnesium and K2, alongside lifestyle measures such as fasting, exercise, and a low-carb diet to maximize absorption, while clarifying that these steps are supportive rather than a cure.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/doctor_next_doorProduced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
Highlights N-acetylcysteine (NAC) as a highly effective supplement for respiratory health, outperforming traditional remedies like salt. NAC thins mucus, reduces its production, and strengthens cilia, while also serving as an anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antibacterial, and antiviral agent. Its benefits extend beyond respiratory conditions like bronchitis and COPD, including glutathione boosting to counteract Tylenol toxicity, potential support for brain health in Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s, and improved insulin sensitivity. The transcript also provides dosage guidance and recommends combining NAC with supplements like Vitamin D3 for enhanced effects.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/doctor_next_doorProduced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
Outlines seven foods recommended for people over 50 to support longevity and mitochondrial health by boosting NAD levels, a key molecule for energy production that declines with age. Drawing on Dr. David Sinclair’s research on sirtuins, the suggested foods include grass-fed red meat (especially organ meats), probiotic-rich foods like sauerkraut, onions for quercetin, wild-caught fatty fish for omega-3s, and nutrient-dense vegetables like parsley, celery, and purple cabbage. The transcript emphasizes obtaining nutrients from whole foods rather than supplements and provides historical context on niacin (Vitamin B3) deficiency and pellagra.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/doctor_next_doorProduced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
Emphasizes that Vitamin D supplementation is only effective when combined with essential co-factors—magnesium, vitamin K2, and zinc—which help regulate calcium and prevent toxicity. The speaker recommends a daily intake of 6,000–10,000 IUs of vitamin D3 (not D2), ideally taken with fat, arguing that typical recommended doses are insufficient. Additional guidance includes strategic sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m., proper testing, and avoiding substances like statins and sunscreen, which can inhibit Vitamin D production.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/doctor_next_doorProduced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
Explains that overthinking and anxiety are often linked to nutritional and gut microbiome imbalances, rather than purely psychological causes. Specifically, deficiencies in Vitamin D and missing gut microbes—particularly L. reuteri—can disrupt neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine, contributing to obsessive thoughts and anxiety. The speaker critiques SSRIs for their serious side effects, such as emotional blunting, and recommends a natural approach using high-dose Vitamin D3 and cultivating L. reuteri to restore neurotransmitter balance and reduce stress.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/doctor_next_doorProduced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
Explains that autoimmune diseases occur when the immune system attacks the body due to an imbalance, particularly from low levels of T-reg cells, which normally prevent self-attack. Gut inflammation impairs Vitamin D3 function, and because many individuals have Vitamin D resistance, high daily doses are recommended to restore T-reg cell activity. The transcript also highlights the role of missing gut microbes, such as B. infantis and L. reuteri, suggesting that their cultivation through dairy products can help. Additional strategies for managing autoimmune conditions include selenium supplementation and prolonged fasting, both aimed at reducing inflammatory immune cells and supporting remission.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/doctor_next_doorProduced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
Explains that premature aging, including wrinkles and stiffness, is largely driven by the loss of collagen and connective tissue, which can be worsened by factors like refined sugar, low-quality protein, and certain antibiotics. To prevent and reverse these effects, the video emphasizes internal strategies such as exercise, sufficient sleep, and intermittent fasting to support cellular repair. Key nutrients highlighted for collagen and connective tissue health include Vitamin D3, Vitamin C, Vitamin K2, magnesium, zinc, and copper, alongside the hormone oxytocin, which helps reduce stress and supports rejuvenation.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/doctor_next_doorProduced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
Explains that toenail fungus is a systemic issue, not just a localized problem, so effective treatment requires addressing the whole body. Conventional antifungal medications are criticized for liver toxicity and often only induce temporary dormancy in the fungus. The recommended strategy emphasizes high-dose Vitamin D3 to strengthen the immune system, which is essential because T. rubrum can suppress immune function and block Vitamin D receptors. Additional measures include topical zinc pyrithione and keeping feet dry and cool through breathable shoes and frequent sock changes to prevent fungal growth.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/doctor_next_doorProduced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
