If you've been told that your "labs are normal" but you still aren't pregnant, or if you're facing the daunting prospect of IVF, it's time to look deeper.

297: Insurance Rigged Against You - with Chris Hamilton
BIOptimizers - Awesome Health Podcast
Health insurance in America is expensive on purpose, not by accident. Chris Hamilton argues that confusion and hidden incentives are the real products big carriers sell… and employers and employees pay the price. How Insurance Giants Game the System Under federal rules, large insurers in the USA can only keep about 15 percent of premiums as profit, which sounds protective until you realize it pushes them to grow the total cost of care. To do that, they've built a "massive ecosystem that's able to bill the insurance company" by buying physician groups, pharmacies, and pharmacy benefit...

BIOptimizers - Awesome Health Podcast
The old playbook of "buy ads, rank for keywords, and wait for patients" is failing. According to Paige Velasquez Budde, CEO of Zilker Media and author of The Strategic Business Influencer, we've entered an era of "corporate suspicion."

BIOptimizers - Awesome Health Podcast

294: Oral Health “Mouth Mapping” - Jonathan Levine
BIOptimizers - Awesome Health Podcast
With long-term health, the mouth is often overlooked. For most people, the dentist is someone only seen for a cleaning or to fix a problem like a cavity or crown. However, according to Dr. Jonathan B. Levine, a world-renowned oral health expert, we are undergoing a massive paradigm shift. It is time to stop seeing the mouth as separate and recognize it as a critical data center for your entire body's well-being. This new approach, which Dr. Levine's practice calls "mouth mapping," is poised to change how we manage everything from heart disease to sleep. The Biological Connection: Mouth...

It is a staggering statistic that an estimated 90% of women and up to 50% of men in North America struggle with binge and emotional eating.

Individuals are attempting to fix a deep, multi-layered issue with a surface-level solution. The true healing, she...
info_outlineCathy Goldstein's Journey
After battling Crohn's disease and finding traditional medicine insufficient, Cathy Goldstein discovered the power of energy medicine through acupuncture. This experience led her to believe that hospitals, while crucial for acute care, often lack a holistic perspective. This realization inspired her to merge energy medicine with skincare.
The Science of Energy Medicine
Cathy's approach centers around three interconnected "nervous systems." These include:
-
The physical nervous system, responsible for transmitting sensory signals.
-
The liquid nervous system, encompassing hormones, neuropeptides, and biochemical responses.
-
The bio-photon highway, a complex communication network using light energy within the body.
This biophoton concept aligns with quantum physics, specifically the observer effect, which suggests that focused attention can trigger physical changes. By directing energy through specialized tools, individuals can stimulate their body's inherent healing mechanisms.
Functional Skincare
Functional skincare prioritizes regeneration over superficial solutions. Cathy emphasizes the following principles:
-
Active Ingredients: The effectiveness of active ingredients relies not only on their percentage but also on their quality and origin.
-
Transparency: Many skincare products conceal toxins under proprietary labels, especially in fragrances, potentially containing hundreds of chemicals that bypass FDA regulations.
Natural Processes: Instead of introducing external substances like collagen, Cathy's methods train the skin to produce its own collagen and support natural muscle function.
Skincare Protocols
Tru Energy Skincare offers a comprehensive system infused with biophoton frequencies. This includes:
-
Hydrating Cleansers and Scrubs: Gentle, nourishing products that avoid stripping the skin. Exfoliation uses jojoba beads and natural fruit enzymes to remove dead skin without micro-scarring.
-
Lymphatic Drainage Protocols: Special techniques help release toxins, improving skin vitality by addressing underlying muscle tension and structure.
-
Specialized Tools: Frequency-enhanced wands and serums work together to stimulate acupuncture points, promoting "Chi" (life energy) flow and revitalizing the face.
In this podcast you will learn:
-
Discover the science behind bio-photon energy and its application in skincare.
-
Understand the principles of functional skincare and its focus on regeneration.
