Joy in Medicine: How Physicians Can Find Meaning Beyond Burnout
Discover why many high-performing doctors look successful on the outside while feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, or misaligned on the inside.

Why Iodine May Be the Missing Piece in Thyroid Health
Discover why iodine supports more than the thyroid and may also play an important role in the breasts, ovaries, prostate, pancreas, and hormone production. Understand how environmental halides such as bromide and fluoride may compete with iodine and contribute to lower iodine availability in the body. Learn why urinary iodine testing, individualized supplementation, hydration, mineral balance, and whole-person care may provide a broader picture than relying on one thyroid marker alone.
2026 Pauling Award Winner Reveals the Truth About Hormones & GLP-1s
The 2026 Linus and Ava Helen Pauling Award in Functional Medicine was awarded to Joel Evans, MD, FMCP-M at The Institute for Functional Medicine's 33rd Annual International Conference, recognizing his decades of leadership in functional medicine and women's health. Joel Evans, MD, FMCP-M cautions that the explosion of hormone-health content on social media often oversimplifies care — treating all midlife fatigue as estrogen deficiency — when a thorough, personalized workup (including advanced markers like FSH) is what actually delivers "top shelf" care. Joel Evans, MD, FMCP-M identifies metabolic flexibility, mitochondrial health, and the wise use of GLP-1s as the three hottest areas in women's health today, and is launching Vyas 360, an integrative longevity platform combining medically tailored meals, supplements, lab testing, and wearables.
Menopause Is Not a Disease
Discover why menopause is a normal life transition rather than a disease, and how metabolic health, stress, nutrition, drainage, and lifestyle can influence how women experience it. Understand why estrogen is only one piece of the hormone picture, and how insulin, cortisol, progesterone, testosterone, thyroid function, and detoxification pathways can shape symptoms and long-term health. Learn why functional testing, DNA analysis, thermography, and a drainage-first approach may help uncover underlying imbalances before simply adding more hormones or treating symptoms in isolation.
When the Treatment Becomes the Disease: A System in Crisis
On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared explores a heartbreaking and highly publicized case involving postpartum mental health struggles, multiple psychiatric prescriptions, and the devastating consequences that followed.

Drawing from his wife Jen's personal journey, he shares a message of hope and resilience for those facing anxiety, depression, or other mental health challenges. This episode encourages listeners to ask questions, seek understanding, and explore a more comprehensive approach to supporting both body and mind.
How to Spot Bad Nutrition Science Online
Understand why the foundations of a healthy diet are more settled than online debates suggest, and how whole grains, fruits, vegetables, legumes, nuts, and seeds consistently support better health outcomes. Discover how to assess nutrition claims by examining the quality of the evidence, the consistency of the standards being applied, and whether ideology is shaping the conclusion. Learn how to make healthier eating more achievable by starting with low-hanging fruit, such as replacing some red meat with plant proteins or swapping butter for oils rich in unsaturated fats.
How HBOT Supports Inflammation, Brain Health, and Cellular Repair
Discover how hyperbaric oxygen therapy can help deliver more oxygen to cells and support the body’s natural repair process. Understand why mild hyperbaric therapy may be useful for neuroinflammation, recovery, immune support, and mitochondrial health. Learn what parents should know about home chambers, ambient air, oxygen masks, pressure levels, and safety standards.
A Holistic Pediatrician on Eczema, Gut Health & Raising Healthy Kids with Dr. Carole Keim
Eczema is the itch that rashes, not the rash that itches. It starts as dry skin, the scratching inflames it, and then allergies, foods, pets, and pollen stack on top until a flare shows up. Lower the total load anywhere and you help the skin everywhere. Your child's baseline is being built in the gut, and diversity is the whole game. A wide variety of real foods grows a wide variety of gut bacteria, and that is the quiet foundation under calmer skin, steadier moods, and fewer flares. You do not have to win dinner to make progress. Carole feeds her own picky eaters with traced bento boxes, free range snack plates, and fun utensil nights, and her closing line is the one I keep repeating: small changes add up, and you cannot out supplement a real life lifestyle.
How can Music and Sound be the “Hidden Therapist” in Psychedelic Healing? with Shane Aspegren
Felt, not just heard: Somatic sound facilitation puts the bowls on the body rather than across the room. Shane works with titration and edges the way any trauma-informed somatic practitioner would, because when vibration is moving through you, the experience is not something you can politely tune out. Why the most valuable place for sound in psychedelic care may be on either side of the session rather than inside it. Shane uses gentle, non-ordinary states created by sound alone as preparation, so that a dysregulated nervous system meets the medicine already knowing what safety feels like. How relationship becomes the actual mechanism. Shane traces both the wound and the repair back to relationship, which is why ONDO's new integration circle at Pala Medicine is built as an ongoing community rather than a single debrief the day after.
