  92: The Hidden Power of Minerals, Colloidal Silver, Copper and Gold with Seth Quinto

  Sep 27, 20261h 3m

  If you've ever wondered whether you're actually getting everything your cells need from a "balanced diet," this episode is for you. We talk so much about magnesium and calcium on this show, but there's a whole category of trace minerals and metals working quietly behind the scenes in your body, and most of us have never been taught why they matter or how to use them well. This week I sat down with my dear friend and colleague Seth Quinto, co-founder of Natural Immunogenics and the force behind Sovereign Silver and Argentyn 23, to talk about one of the most misunderstood substances in natural health: colloidal silver. What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why trace minerals and metals, not just the "big two" like calcium and magnesium, are essential to cellular processes and often overlooked in mainstream nutrition conversations. The real history of colloidal silver, why it's been used for millennia, and why most people have never heard about it in a medical context. What separates a properly manufactured, bioavailable silver product from something you'd find sitting in a plastic bottle on a health food store shelf. How Argentyn 23 is being used in biologic dental practices, including post-extraction healing support, and why sourcing and manufacturing quality matter so much here. Why "sovereignty," taking ownership of your own health decisions, is at the center of how Seth and his family built this company. About Seth Quinto: Seth Quinto is co-founder of Natural Immunogenics, the company behind Sovereign Silver and Argentyn 23. He joined the family business in 2001 after a career on Wall Street, and has spent over two decades building relationships with medical, dental, and naturopathic practitioners across the country. What started as his father's late-in-life research project became one of the most trusted names in colloidal silver, built on serious science and even more serious integrity. Key Insights: One of the things I loved most about this conversation is how much of Seth's story is really a story about persistence and purpose. His father lost his life's work in aviation, and rather than give up, he redirected that same drive into what became the largest independent research effort ever undertaken on silver. That's the kind of origin story that tells you everything about why this company does things the hard, right way instead of the easy way. We also got into something I see in my own practice constantly: the difference between products that just mask a symptom and products that actually support your body's own healing mechanisms. Seth talked about how Argentyn 23 is used after extractions and more involved procedures to support healing, and honestly, it echoes what I tell patients all the time. When you give the body what it needs instead of just suppressing what it's doing, healing looks completely different. Seth also shared something I think about a lot, the idea of "clean terminals." Just like a battery needs clean connections to function well, our bodies need us to be intentional about what we eat, what we're exposed to, and who we surround ourselves with. It's such a simple metaphor, but it really is the root of the matter.

  Oral Health: The Root of the Matter

  91. Toxins, Diet & the Root of Chronic Illness with Tim James

  Sep 13, 20261h 3m

  If you've ever done "everything right" with food and still felt off, tired, inflamed, stuck, this episode is for you. My guest today spent years chasing down his own health crisis before he found what was actually driving it, and it wasn't what any of his doctors were looking at. We talk about the real difference between eating "clean" and eating in a way that actually nourishes your body, why your gut health sets the tone for basically everything else, and how the food most of us grew up on set us up for exactly the kind of chronic issues we're now trying to undo. This is one of those conversations that connects a lot of dots. What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why chronic skin issues, digestive pain, and autoimmune flare ups often trace back to toxin load, nutrient deficiency, and stress rather than one isolated cause How the modern food supply has changed, with produce carrying significantly fewer nutrients than it did a generation ago Why clearing the pathways of elimination, like the gut and lymphatic system, matters before anything else can really heal What fulvic and humic minerals are, and why mineral repletion is often the missing piece in a "healthy" diet Why there's no single diet that works for everyone, and what actually matters more than the label on your plate About Tim James: Tim James is the founder of Chemical Free Body and a longtime voice in the nutrition and healthy living space. His own health crisis, including years of debilitating autoimmune symptoms and a medical emergency that nearly cost him his life, sent him searching for real answers outside of conventional care. That search became his life's work, and he now spends his time helping people cut through the noise around nutrition to find what actually works for their bodies. Key Insights: Tim's story is a powerful reminder that healing rarely happens in a straight line. He talks candidly about the eczema, the internal bleeding, and the moment everything came to a head on a trip that turned into a medical emergency. What changed things for him wasn't a new supplement or a trendy diet, it was addressing the root causes underneath his symptoms, starting with clearing out what his body had been holding onto for years. We also get into something I talk about with almost every guest in some form, and that's the state of our food supply. Tim breaks down how depleted our soil has become and what that means for the nutrients actually making it onto our plates, which is a big part of why mineral repletion has become such a focus in his own work and in mine. And of course, we can't have a conversation about root causes without circling back to the mouth. Tim and I talk about how often the picture of someone's health only really comes together once the dental piece is addressed, because so much of what shows up as digestive, autoimmune, or inflammatory can have roots that start right at the source of the airway and the gut.

  90. Clear Eczema Without Steroids: The Root-Cause 3-Step Process with Dr. Carver

  Aug 30, 202619 min

  If you've ever stared at a red, itchy patch of skin wondering why nothing you're trying seems to actually fix it, you're not alone, and you're not doing anything wrong. Skin issues like eczema are rarely just a skin problem. They're usually your body's way of telling you something deeper needs attention, and once you understand what that something is, the path forward gets a lot clearer. In this episode, Dr. Rachaele Carver shares her own decade-long journey with eczema and the three-step framework she now uses to help people heal without relying on immune-suppressing steroids. What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis often signal that your body's elimination pathways, like the liver, kidneys, bowels, and lymph, are overwhelmed rather than functioning as a standalone skin issue. The foundational nutrients Dr. Carver considers essential before any detox protocol, including minerals, B vitamins, vitamin C, fat-soluble vitamins, and magnesium, and why taking them in isolation often falls short. How genetic factors like MTHFR mutations and COMT status can change which forms of B vitamins and other nutrients actually work for your body. Why opening up drainage pathways, especially the bowels and lymph, has to happen before detoxification, and what can go wrong when that order gets skipped. What the Herxheimer reaction is, why it happens, and why giving up on detox at that point often means the real issue was never addressed. Key Insights: Dr. Carver walks through her own three-step process for supporting the body through skin conditions like eczema. Step one is repleting nutrients, since toxicity tends to create deficiencies, and without the right foundational building blocks, even expensive supplements may not do much. Step two is draining the elimination organs, particularly the bowels and lymph system, which often get sluggish long before symptoms show up anywhere else in the body. She's candid about how much trial and error was involved in figuring this out for herself, including genetic testing that helped her understand her own detox pathways. And she's clear that jumping straight to detox, which is step three, before the first two steps are in place is one of the most common reasons people cycle through feeling better and then relapsing.

  89. Healing Stored Trauma with Frequency Medicine, with Dr. Adam Suzman

  Aug 16, 202655 min

  Have you ever felt like you did everything right, changed your diet, ran the tests, saw every specialist, and you're still stuck with the same chronic symptom that just won't budge? That was Dr. Rachaele Carver's own story with eczema, and it's the story of so many patients who walk into her practice with a long list of labels and no real answers. In this conversation, she sits down with Dr. Adam Suzman, founder of Immortal Wellness, to talk about a piece of the healing puzzle that almost never gets addressed, the mental and emotional residue we carry in the body long after the original event is gone. What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why quantum physics is shifting our understanding of the body away from a simple lock and key model and toward frequency, vibration, and energy. How unresolved emotional experiences, even ones we've consciously forgotten, can get stored in the body and quietly shape our health, our relationships, and how quickly we age. What the "weed, seed, feed" framework looks like when it's applied to mental and emotional patterns instead of just gut bacteria. Why Dr. Suzman believes anger and unresolved trauma can be more damaging to the body than we give them credit for, and how that connects to chronic disease and premature aging. How Dr. Carver is using frequency-based tools like the Miracle Tooth alongside her clinical work to support the body's natural terrain instead of only treating symptoms. About Dr. Adam Suzman: Dr. Adam Suzman spent twenty years practicing homeopathic medicine across South Africa, France, India, and Australia before shifting his focus to research and remedy development. He is the founder of Immortal Wellness, a company built around the idea that lasting health requires clearing the mental and emotional backlog we carry from our past, not just addressing the body on a physical level. Key Insights: So much of this conversation circles back to one idea, that we are not just physical beings reacting to physical inputs. Dr. Suzman shares how his own remedies came out of a very personal discovery, that events he thought he had fully processed and moved past were still living somewhere in his body, quietly shaping how he showed up in relationships and in the world. Dr. Carver connects this directly to what she sees clinically, that patients with chronic, hard to explain symptoms are so often the ones carrying stuck emotional patterns underneath the physical picture. They also get into the idea of terrain over germ theory, the belief that it's the environment inside the body, not just the presence of bacteria or pathogens, that determines whether we stay well or get sick. Dr. Carver ties this back to her own work in the mouth, where she's seeing that same principle play out on the microscope slide every day. And toward the end, the conversation lands somewhere beautifully simple, that healing often starts with just asking your own body what it thinks is wrong, and actually listening for the answer.

  88. Breaking Diet Culture: Carrie Lupoli on Beliefs & Blood Sugar

  Aug 2, 202652 min

  Ever catch yourself weighing yourself before you'll take a picture with your own kids, or quietly promising you'll "just" lose a few pounds before you let yourself feel good? If any of that sounds familiar, this episode is going to feel like a long exhale. I sat down with Carrie Lupoli, a behavior specialist turned nutrition and mindset expert, and we went deep into why so many of us, and so many of our daughters, carry a belief that our worth is tied to how we look. Carrie calls it "the corset," and once you see it, you can't unsee it. What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why "calories in, calories out" is one of the most damaging myths in nutrition, and what actually drives lasting change in your body. How Carrie's own daughters taught her, at ages five and six, that she was modeling diet culture without ever saying the word "calories." The real reason 90% of diets and weight loss strategies fail, and why chasing weight loss instead of health gets you neither. A simple, sustainable approach to blood sugar balance (PFC3: protein, fat, and carb together every three hours) that works for adults and kids alike. Why a five-minute "morning time" practice built around gratitude, learning, and time blocking can be the difference between a regulated day and a reactive one. About Carrie Lupoli: Carrie Lupoli spent 30 years as a behavior specialist working in schools, with parents, educators, and even corporations before turning that expertise toward nutrition and self-worth. After watching her own daughters absorb diet culture from her without her ever intending it, she went on a deep dive that led her to blood sugar science, behavior change, and ultimately her book, From Corset to Crown. She now works with tens of thousands of women through her practice and team of coaches. Key Insights: Carrie's biggest reframe is that the diet, weight loss, and food industries aren't designed for your best interest, they're designed to keep you coming back. That's why nearly every nutritional certification is built on deprivation and caloric restriction, even though nothing in the body thrives in a deficit. Her approach, PFC3, is built on eating protein, fat, and carbohydrates together every three hours to stabilize blood sugar, which she calls the body's love language. We also talked about identity versus goals. Carrie's philosophy is that you'll always be "a person trying to lose weight" until you start living as the healthiest version of yourself and let the results follow, rather than chasing a number that was never really the point. And we connected this directly back to oral health, using the "put your own oxygen mask on first" idea to talk about why moms who won't floss for themselves need to understand what they're transmitting to their kids.
