This week, Tee sits down with John Neustadt, ND, a Bastyr University graduate, internationally recognized expert in integrative and functional medicine, and #1 Amazon best-selling author of Fracture-Proof Your Bones (2nd Edition). As founder of Nutritional Biochemistry, Inc., John has published over 100 medical articles and is among the most cited researchers in the world for his work on osteoporosis and fracture prevention. In this episode, he shares why his mission is to shift the conversation from simply improving bone density scores to actually reducing real-world fracture risk.

In the conversation, John explains why bone density alone is an incomplete measure of bone health, sharing a powerful personal story of a hip fracture that occurred despite improved scan results. He breaks down the broader factors that influence fracture risk, including chronic inflammation, nutrient deficiencies, gut health, medication use, and lifestyle habits. The discussion also highlights gaps in conventional care, where limited time and training can leave patients without a full understanding of what truly drives bone strength and resilience.

In addition, John offers practical, research-driven strategies to help listeners take a more comprehensive approach to bone health. He emphasizes the importance of a Mediterranean-style diet, adequate protein intake, minimizing ultra-processed foods, and identifying medications—such as proton pump inhibitors—that may impair digestion, nutrient absorption, and microbiome balance. He also discusses signs of gut dysfunction, potential testing options, and supportive interventions like whole foods, time-restricted eating, and targeted supplementation. This episode provides clear, actionable insights for both individuals and clinicians looking to build stronger bones and reduce fracture risk through a more holistic, informed approach.

This week, Tee sits down with Lou Banas, a certified laser therapist and founder of Pain Therapy USA, to explore photobiomodulation (PBM), also known as red light therapy. This non-invasive approach uses specific wavelengths of red and near-infrared light to support the body's natural healing processes by reducing inflammation, relieving pain, and promoting tissue repair. Lou shares his journey into this field and explains why proper training and certification are critical as PBM becomes more widely available in both clinical and at-home settings.

In the conversation, Lou breaks down the science behind PBM, including how light interacts with the body at a cellular level. He explains the role of mitochondrial function, particularly cytochrome c oxidase, in increasing ATP production, as well as how nitric oxide may improve circulation and reduce inflammation. He also discusses the differences between medical-grade laser devices and consumer LED products, noting how power and precision can influence results across a variety of conditions.

Lou also shares clinical observations from over two decades of use, highlighting applications ranging from joint pain and sciatica to brain-related conditions such as traumatic brain injury, PTSD, and dementia. Referencing insights from Richard M. Restak, author of The Brain: The Last Frontier, the episode explores how PBM may play a role in advancing brain health and recovery. As research continues to evolve, this therapy shows growing promise as a tool for both physical healing and neurological support.

This week, Tee sits down with Mario Brainović, CEO and co-founder of Analemma Water, a company focused on transforming ordinary water into "structured water" — a more ordered form believed to function like a liquid crystal with enhanced energy-carrying properties. Analemma's technology uses a crystal-filled device to influence water at the molecular level, producing stable, long-lasting changes. Mario's mission is to make this approach accessible through practical, easy-to-use products, including handheld wands, pitcher inserts, and whole-home systems.

In this conversation, Mario shares insights from his research and experimentation. He discusses QEEG testing with identical twins that suggested rapid brainwave synchronization after consuming Analemma water, as well as findings indicating increased cellular ATP and mitochondrial activity in healthy individuals. Additional observations include improvements in microbiome balance, particularly reductions in dysbiosis, along with experiments involving plant growth, soil health, and water exposed to EMF and 5G environments.

The episode also covers practical applications for everyday use, including an overview of Analemma's product lineup, such as the handheld wand, pitcher insert, garden hose attachment, and whole-house system. Mario provides guidance on usage, considerations for pets, and best practices for heating or boiling structured water. Listeners will also find information on where to learn more, along with access to a special discount code.
