In Episode 02, Dr. Paul Savage and host Joe Fier go deep into the intricate relationship between toxins, inflammation, genetics, and our most threatening chronic diseases. Dr. Savage breaks down how the explosion of synthetic chemicals since the 1950s has created a steady “toxic load,” why our homes are often the most hazardous environments, and how toxins can activate genetic vulnerabilities—leading to the rise in cancer, autoimmune disorders, Alzheimer’s, and more.
Dr. Savage explains that once toxins accumulate in the body, a four-step process unfolds:
Modern homes are filled with hidden hazards: contaminated air, water, cleaning agents, plastics, cosmetic products, and baby items. Dr. Savage stresses that simple steps—like using effective air and water filtration, choosing safer products, and thoroughly washing food—can drastically reduce your daily toxin exposure.
Dr. Savage warns that today’s children—and even unborn babies—start life with measurable toxin loads, setting the stage for increased risks of autism, ADHD, obesity, and more. Women of childbearing age, especially those with low body weight and a history of heavy personal care product use, face higher vulnerability.
The episode emphasizes the power of modern testing—measure your toxins, check inflammatory markers, and learn your detox genetics (simple as a 23andMe or targeted DNA panel). With this information, people can take focused action to reduce exposure and better manage their risk.
