216. Dr. Labib Ghulmiyyah: On How To Prepare Your Body for Pregnancy, Fertility Decline, and Preconception Health
Here’s what nobody tells you about pregnancy: you’re ignoring half the genetic equation. Dr. Labib Ghulmiyyah drops a truth bomb that should fundamentally change how we approach conception, men need pregnancy preparation as much as women, period. Your sperm isn’t just a delivery vehicle, it’s carrying epigenetic instructions that will influence your child’s chronic disease risk, neurodevelopment, and lifelong health trajectory. Time to step up, gentlemen, your biology matters more than you think.

215. Dr. Vonda Wright: On Menopause, Women’s Hormone Therapy, and Perimenopause Symptoms
Forget expensive biohacks and longevity gadgets; the real secret to anti-aging starts with getting you from “fine” to extraordinary through the basics that most doctors never discuss. Dr. Vonda Wright challenges the entire medical paradigm by treating patients as whole people rather than collections of body parts, revealing how a 46-year-old woman’s frozen shoulder is actually a warning sign of perimenopause, inflammation, and systemic hormone depletion that conventional orthopaedics completely misses.

214. Methylation Test Explained: Stop Guessing What Supplements You Need
The immune system doesn’t make mistakes, we just stopped asking why it showed up. If you’ve been diagnosed with multiple autoimmune diseases, here’s what conventional medicine won’t investigate: your immune system isn’t attacking you for no reason, it’s protecting you from pathogens like mold, mycotoxins, parasites, viruses, and heavy metals that are hiding in your tissue.

Join me and renowned skincare innovator Dr. Barbara Sturm as we dismantle the conventional dermatology playbook and rebuild skin health from a foundation of anti-inflammatory science. We touch base on the gut-skin connection, how seed oils trigger inflammatory cytokines linked to skin cancer, and why your skincare ingredients matter as much as the food you eat.

Gary Brecka is a Human Biologist, biohacker, researcher, and an anti-aging and longevity expert. His approach to health is simple: "Aging is the aggressive pursuit of comfort."
For over 20 years, he worked in the life insurance industry predicting mortality. This meant if he got 5 years of medical records and 5 years of demographic data on you, the team that he was associated with could tell a life insurance company how long you had to live to the month. After years and years of doing this type of research and analysis, he decided he wanted to spend the balance of his lifetime helping people live happier, healthier, longer, more fulfilling lives.
With this mission in mind, he created The Ultimate Human podcast. In this weekly podcast, Gary has exciting conversations with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and scientists and is thrilled to share their transformative insights with you. What's keeping you from being an ultimate human? Tune in to find out.
