You don't see this very often! The FDA has REMOVED a "black box warning" from testosterone products used in TRT and other hormone therapies. The FDA uses box warnings when there is serious concern about a potential side effect. Seeing one removed is almost completely unheard of!

Joey and Dante break down all the details on what's changing, the research behind it, and what it means for the millions of men using testosterone replacement therapy.

When a doctor suspects plaque build-up in the arteries and vessels of a patient's heart, a non-invasive CT scan will often be used to detect the presence of calcium. That results are represented as a Calcium Score (Coronary Artery Calcium or CAC).

So if the results come back and you have a low or even zero CAC, you're safe, right? Unfortunately, it's not that easy. Dante has the details based on a listener question.

Joey gives us details on a product with a VERY specific use: Prenatal Complete with DHA! Creating life is not the time to use just any old prenatal, and Joey explains the details of why ours is worth the investment!

Is obesity a disease or does it lead to disease? Or is it merely a corollary with disease? What exactly is obesity? Where is the cutoff... and why?

With questions like this raging in the medical community and popular-health world, the Lancet pulled together dozens of doctors and scientists to try and bring clarity based on the broadest and most well-established research. What they came up with is both critically important... and difficult to parse for the non-professional.

This episode is extra long, but with obesity (and clinical obesity) comprising the single greatest challenge for Americans and the health of their families, we decided it was worth it!

Joey digs into a new study linking prenatal exposure to FPAS via contaminated drinking water to an increase in childhood cancer. We unpack the research and discuss what women can do to protect their babies. This research has huge implications for young families!

After that, Joey tells us exactly what's so exciting about one of our newest products, Ovarian Advanced Essentials. Designed to target women's hormone issues, Ovarian Advanced Essentials is built with the exact ratios of D-chiro Inositol and myoinositol that have been shown in research to the most help, particularly to women with PCOS. When hormones become unbalanced, the symptoms can be wide-ranging. Don't miss the chance to set things straight naturally!
