What if your body was carrying more toxins than you realized—even if you eat well, exercise regularly, and feel healthy?
In this eye-opening episode, I revisit my environmental toxin test results with Dr. Paul Savage from MDLifespan.com and we uncover surprising insights about the toxic burden many people carry. From mold toxins and plastics to PFAS “forever chemicals,” we explore why some toxins remain in the body despite healthy habits and what that could mean for long-term wellness.
Why Detoxing Is More Complicated Than You Think
Many toxins can be reduced through lifestyle strategies, but others are far more persistent. Dr. Savage explains how modern environmental exposures accumulate over time, why testing matters, and how hidden toxins may be influencing inflammation, aging, and overall health without obvious symptoms.
A New Frontier in Reducing Toxic Burden
The conversation also dives into therapeutic plasma exchange, an innovative approach designed to remove toxins directly from the bloodstream. You’ll learn how it works, who may benefit most, and why this technology is generating so much interest in the longevity and functional health communities.
If you’ve ever wondered how much toxic exposure your body is carrying—or what you can do about it—this episode offers a fascinating look at the science behind modern detoxification.
