Mitolife Radio
I created the CLF Protocol in 2019 based on nearly a decade of research about human health. Since then I have been refining it as I learn new information.

Your Sunburn Could be a Copper Deficiency
Mitolife Radio
For several years I was focusing heavily on the relationship between copper and iron while neglecting and even demonizing zinc. Given that our body stores a much higher concentration of zinc than copper, that was not a wise approach. Over the years I have learned that even in the case of a copper deficiency, one should still supplement zinc in addition to copper, and the clinical research clearly proves this. It is very easy to get caught in the anti-supplement fear campaigns that big influencers spread and I have since repented for my sins in this regard. In this episode I share my experience...

Mitolife Radio
I see a lot of health educators throw their weight around saying that they have more then a few decades of experience working one on one with clients, and then selling you the idea that acting based on your symptoms is just mimicking the allopathic pharma way of thinking.

She joins me to bring that "what about both?" energy to the health discussion. What if high dose supplementation can create long term...

info_outlineWhen is the last time you've looked at the tag on your underwear, pants, shorts, shirts, or jackets? There are literally thousands of things that we can upgrade in our lives to reduce our risk of acquiring a disease and half of the battle is not getting stressed about it and just making small incremental changes month after month.
Dan Baird created NADS underwear, an alternative to polyester and synthetic material laden products that doesn't put microplastics, forever chemicals, pesticides, formaldehyde, and other compounds straight into the reproductive organs. Over time they become a major contributing factor to erectile dysfunction, infertility and decreased testosterone.
He shares his journey of raising his testosterone and how changing out his clothing played a pivotal role. He talks about the dangers of nylon and elastane, the two certifications that he has for his organic cotton underwear, how the chemicals in low quality clothing are reactivated in the skin when you sweat in a sauna, and more.
