TPE Blueprint Ep. 08: “What’s Hiding in Your Toxin Report? A Step-by-Step Walkthrough with Dr. Paul Savage

What does your toxin test really reveal about your health—and what can you do with that information? In this episode, host Joe Fier puts himself in the hot seat, sharing his actual toxin report while Dr. Paul Savage walks through the meaning behind the numbers, lines, and symbols.

Together, they break down:

• How to read each section of a modern toxin report: from summary to specifics
• The four main toxin categories—mycotoxins, environmentals, heavy metals, and PFAs (“forever chemicals”)
• Why current reference ranges are based on other people’s levels, not actual health safety
• The difference between “being in the red” and having toxins that are actually dangerous at much lower thresholds

Dr. Savage explains why there’s no safe level for many toxins, why simply being below the industry cut-off can be misleading, and how average Americans now carry a far higher toxic burden than ever before. They also discuss why actions should always go beyond avoidance, with Therapeutic Plasma Exchange (TPE) emerging as a uniquely powerful way to reduce stubborn and dangerous substances.

You’ll learn:

• Why being “within range” is not a free pass for your health
• Which toxins—like molds and PFAs—require urgent attention even at low levels
• How American food storage and modern infrastructure fuel toxin exposure
• Why testing only picks up a fraction of the chemicals in your body—and what that means for your results
• The steps you can take right now to radically reduce your toxic load, including free resources, ongoing testing, and advances in modern detox (like TPE)

Listen in for: jaw-dropping discoveries (Joe’s mold scores!), myth-busting (“normal” is not always safe), and essential strategies you can use today.

Key Takeaways & Highlights

1. Reference Ranges Are Moving Targets—And “Normal” Isn’t Safe
   Toxin ranges are based on the population, not what’s actually healthy. As environmental exposures increase, so do “reference” values. Zero is the only safe level for many toxins.
2. Mold, Heavy Metals & PFAs Are Dangerous Even at Modest Levels
   Certain mycotoxins and “forever chemicals” do serious damage long before they show up in the “red zone.” American silos, food, and building materials are major sources.
3. Counting “Moderate” Results Matters (Not Just Highs)
   Having five or more toxins in the high/moderate range already signals elevated risk—numbers like 20+ mean major action is needed, even for healthy people.
4. Avoidance Isn’t Enough: You Need Active Solutions
   Filtering air, water, and food is a start, but TPE (Therapeutic Plasma Exchange) can dramatically decrease heavy metals and fat-soluble toxins—often succeeding where chelation can’t.
5. Most Tests Only Reveal the Tip of the Iceberg
   If a report finds 20+ toxins above moderate, you likely have tens of thousands more flying under the radar—making comprehensive testing and intervention even more vital.
