    The Stroke That Changed Everything: Dr. Clint Phillips’ Quest to Simplify Health

    27/04/2026 | 31 mins.
    What if the most life-changing health solutions were far simpler than you’ve been told?
    In this powerful episode of me&my health up, Dr. Clint Phillips shares his extraordinary journey from rugby player and chiropractor in Aspen to founder of 2nd.MD and Medici. After his daughter suffered a devastating stroke following a vaccination, Clint and his family faced the harsh realities of a broken healthcare system. Their struggle led him to create platforms that connect patients with world-class doctors and emphasise prevention over treatment.

    Listeners will hear:
    How his daughter’s recovery revealed the power of simple, affordable therapies.

    Why personalised healthcare, DNA insights, and lifestyle changes often outperform costly medical interventions.

    His critique of one-size-fits-all medicine and the overuse of complex solutions.

    A candid reflection on vaccinations, prevention, and the importance of informed choices.

    Inspiring stories of resilience, including Clint’s Guinness World Record achievement and his vision for longevity.

    This episode is both a deeply personal story and a call to rethink healthcare: moving from reactive, complicated interventions to simpler, preventive, and individualised solutions.

    Heavy Metals & Toxins: The Hidden Cause of Fatigue, Brain Fog & Hormonal Issues

    21/04/2026 | 35 mins.
    From peak performance to rock bottom health—Kyle Hulbert’s journey reveals how hidden toxins can sabotage hormones, energy, and even mental health. His story is proof that healing is possible when you uncover the root cause.
    Kyle Hulbert, CEO of Longevity Centers of America, shares his powerful personal journey from being a collegiate athlete living a clean lifestyle to battling fatigue, brain fog, joint pain, allergies, and even suicidal thoughts. Despite doing everything “right,” Kyle’s health collapsed—until he discovered the devastating impact of hormonal imbalance and heavy metal toxicity. 

    In this episode, Kyle recounts: 
    How his testosterone levels dropped to just 10% of normal, triggering mental health struggles. 

    The shocking discovery of mercury toxicity from amalgam fillings, vaccines, and years of tuna consumption. 

    His path to recovery through hormone optimisation, chelation therapy, and detox strategies. 

    Why toxins and hormonal dysregulation may be fueling today’s mental health crisis. 

    The mission behind Longevity Centers of America: affordable, integrative care for chronic disease patients overlooked by traditional medicine. 

    Listeners will gain insight into the hidden role toxins play in chronic illness, the importance of personalised testing, and innovative therapies like EBOO (Extracorporeal Blood Oxygenation and Ozonation)—an “oil change” for the body. 
    Kyle’s story is both cautionary and inspiring, reminding us that resilience and healing are possible when we dig deeper than surface-level symptoms.

    Heart Health Without the Magic Pill: A Holistic Journey with Dr. Melanie Icard

    06/04/2026 | 41 mins.
    "There is no magic supplement. There is no magic treatment. We are a system of systems—and when we honor that, the body does the healing." 
    In this episode of me&my health up, host Anthony Hartcher sits down with Dr. Melanie Icard, a naturopathic doctor who has spent over a decade guiding patients toward regenerative and holistic healing. Together, they explore the deeper roots of heart health—beyond cholesterol numbers and blood pressure readings—to uncover how stress, sleep, toxins, and emotional wellbeing shape our metabolic and cardiovascular resilience. 
    Dr. Melanie shares her personal journey from losing her mother to cancer, to embracing her father’s unconventional health practices, to discovering regenerative medicine through her own healing experiences. She introduces listeners to her holistic protocol for lowering calcium scores, balancing insulin, detoxifying the body, and restoring calcium homeostasis—all while reminding us that true healing begins with self-inventory and balance. 
    This episode is a call to step off the hamster wheel of stress and quick fixes, and instead embrace the layered, interconnected systems that allow the heart—and the whole body—to thrive. 
     
    👩‍⚕️ About Dr. Melanie Icard 
    Dr. Melanie Icard, NMD, is a U.S.-based naturopathic doctor specializing in regenerative and holistic medicine. With over 12 years of experience, she integrates mind-body medicine, detoxification, and metabolic health strategies to help patients reverse pre-diabetes, reduce arterial plaque, and reclaim vitality. Her philosophy is rooted in the belief that symptoms are not enemies but messengers, guiding us toward deeper understanding of the body’s needs. She teaches that the body is not broken—it is communicating—and when given the right conditions, it repairs itself naturally. Rather than forcing healing, Dr. Mel focuses on removing obstacles, raising standards, and empowering patients to release survival mode and embrace thriving. Her approach combines professional rigor with personal experience, offering less fear and overwhelm, and more strength, resilience, and life.
