In this episode, Haylie Pomroy is joined by Dr. Gordon Crozier, osteopathic physician and Medical Director at Excellent Living Medical Center, to explore how environmental exposures may affect brain health, the immune system, and chronic illness. Dr. Crozier shares how his own unexplained illness and the lack of compassion he met along the way led him to study neurotoxicity, and why standard lab ranges can miss what is happening beneath the surface. Together, they discuss heavy metals, plasticizers, and pesticides, how toxins may drive immune reactions and allergies, why long COVID symptoms can keep returning, how peptide therapy is being researched, and simple lifestyle steps like movement, box breathing, sweating, and clean water that support the body's detox pathways. Hear why compassion and curiosity may be the most overlooked tools in medicine, and how understanding your exposures can change the questions you bring to your next appointment, here on Fast Metabolism Matters.

In this episode, Haylie Pomroy is joined by Roxy Pirnia, Chief Operating Officer of EverHealth, to talk about moving healthcare toward a preventative model and what it looks like to take more control of your own health. Roxy shares why the shift is happening now, how at-home lab testing and personalized data can point to root causes instead of masking symptoms, and her own experience reversing polycystic ovarian syndrome with the help of a naturopath. Together, they discuss why prevention now means managing stress and toxic exposure as much as avoiding disease, how the body creates balance under pressure, and how AI and virtual platforms could make care more accessible.

In this episode, Haylie Pomroy is joined by Kiva Schuler, founder and CEO of the Jai Institute for Parenting and author of The Peaceful Parenting (R)evolution, to explore how intentional parenting starts with taking care of yourself first. Kiva explains why parents need support just as much as elite athletes do, how modeling healthy habits at home builds trust with children, and the difference between teaching kids responsibility and unintentionally parentifying them. Together, they discuss how family meals and simple daily rituals build real connection in a disconnected, screen-filled world, and how to navigate unhealthy food culture, from birthday parties to school snack lists, without controlling or restricting a child's relationship with food. Discover why peaceful parenting is about who you are more than what you do, and how supporting yourself as a parent may be the most powerful thing you can do for your child's health, here on Fast Metabolism Matters.

In this episode, Haylie Pomroy is joined by Margie Bissinger, physical therapist, integrative health coach, and author, to explore what it really takes to build and protect strong bones at every stage of life. Margie explains why peak bone density is built before age 30, how nutrition, gut health, and hormones all play a role in bone loss, and why stress and cortisol are often an overlooked but foundational piece of any bone health plan. Together, they discuss which types of exercise actually move the needle for bone density, why posture and balance training are just as important as strength work, and specific movements to avoid if you already have osteoporosis or osteopenia. Discover why bone health starts decades before osteoporosis is ever diagnosed, and how nutrition, movement, and mindset work together to build bones that support you for life, here on Fast Metabolism Matters.

In this episode, Haylie Pomroy is joined by Natalie Jill, bestselling author, midlife health strategist, and host of the Midlife Conversations podcast, to explore how mindset and belief shape the way women experience aging, weight change, and hormonal shifts. Natalie shares why she believes belief set, not genetics or hormones, is the single biggest factor in successful aging, how she uncovered gut imbalances and a ruptured breast implant behind her own midlife health crisis, and why becoming your own health detective matters more than chasing a quick fix. Together, they discuss why menopause weight gain involves far more than hormones alone, how environmental toxins and gut health quietly drive midlife symptoms, and why choosing health over appearance can completely change what the next chapter of life looks like. Discover why changing your belief about aging may be the most powerful health decision you can make, and how becoming a health detective can help you build vitality at any age, here on Fast Metabolism Matters.

In this episode, Haylie Pomroy is joined by Dr. Travis Craddock, PhD, Associate Professor at Nova Southeastern University, to explore how computational biology and computer modeling of the brain are changing the way researchers understand and treat neuroinflammatory disease. Dr. Craddock explains how his lab builds virtual models of the brain's immune system, simulates disease states before ever treating a real patient, and applies this theory-driven approach to conditions like myalgic encephalomyelitis, chronic fatigue syndrome, Gulf War illness, and Parkinson's disease. Together, they discuss the ongoing investigation into Epstein-Barr virus reactivation in chronic fatigue syndrome, why the body cannot be understood as a simple cause-and-effect system, and practical findings on sleep timing, gut health, and mineral balance that support brain health. Discover how theory-driven modeling is shortening the distance between research and real-world treatment, and why understanding the brain as part of one interconnected system may be key to reversing chronic illness, here on Fast Metabolism Matters.   If your body feels like it's running on empty, overburdened, or just not responding the way it used to, Haylie's latest book, Toxic Overload, tells you exactly what to do.

In this episode, Haylie Pomroy is joined by Dane Johnson, founder and CEO of CrohnsColitisLifestyle, to explore what's really driving the rise in Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, and why healing inflammatory bowel disease often requires going far deeper than a diagnosis or a diet. Dane shares his own decade-long fight with ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, why conventional treatment protocols and quick-fix diets failed him, and how rebuilding his health required addressing root causes like microbiome disruption, environmental toxins, and endotoxin overload. Together, they break down the symptom differences between Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, the role of stress and the nervous system in gut healing, and why community and belief are just as critical to recovery as nutrition and supplementation. Discover why inflammatory bowel disease is rarely just a gut problem, and how a root cause approach can offer a path forward for anyone stuck cycling through diets, medications, and diagnoses, here on Fast Metabolism Matters.   If your body feels like it's running on empty, overburdened, or just not responding the way it used to, Haylie's latest book, Toxic Overload, tells you exactly what to do.

In this episode, Haylie Pomroy is joined by Dr. Matt Halpert, PhD, a cancer immunologist and the founder of Immunocine, to explore how dendritic cell immunotherapy is reprogramming the immune system to recognize and fight cancer. Dr. Halpert shares his decade of cancer research at Baylor College of Medicine, explains why the dendritic cell functions as the general of the immune system army, and breaks down why traditional therapies like chemotherapy and radiation lack the specificity the immune system can offer. Together, they discuss the concept of immune ignorance, why a single biomarker doesn't determine whether immunotherapy can work for a patient, and how correctly loading a patient's own tumor data into their dendritic cells can retrain the immune system to fight relapse and mutation. Discover why cancer may be less a battle to fight and more a system to reeducate, and how patients today can access personalized immunotherapy without waiting years for it to reach mainstream care, here on Fast Metabolism Matters.   If your body feels like it's running on empty, overburdened, or just not responding the way it used to, Haylie's latest book, Toxic Overload, tells you exactly what to do.

In today's episode, Haylie Pomroy is joined by Dr. Payam Hakimi, D.O., Medical Director of Body of Harmony, for a conversation she has wanted to have for years. Haylie has used homeopathy since she was two, raised her kids on it, and now has two physicians at the Institute for Neuro Immune Medicine enrolled in Dr. Hakimi's training course.  Dr. Hakimi covers how homeopathy works through the immune system to inspire the body to act rather than acting on its behalf, how dilution levels and potency affect speed and depth of response, and why the concept of constitution, the full physical, physiological, and emotional makeup of a person, is central to selecting the right medicine. He also explains what blocked elimination pathways look like clinically and how homeopathic medicines target specific detox organs to release what the body has been holding. If homeopathy has ever felt mysterious or inaccessible, this episode of Fast Metabolism Matters makes it clinical, clear, and actionable.

In today's episode, Haylie Pomroy sits down with Dr. Richard Deth, professor of pharmacology at Nova Southeastern University, for a molecular deep dive into neuroinflammation, long COVID, and why some people never fully recover. Dr. Deth breaks down the NLRP3 inflammasome, the cellular structure behind cytokine storms, and explains why long COVID is fundamentally a failure to turn inflammation off. He covers aluminum adjuvants and their persistence in the body, the overlap between natural COVID exposure and vaccination, and how autism research, which established that low glutathione and cysteine create chronic oxidative stress and neuroinflammation, is now the clearest roadmap we have for understanding post-viral chronic illness. If you are dealing with long COVID, brain fog, or unexplained neuroinflammation, this conversation on Fast Metabolism Matters gives you the science behind what is actually happening.   Key points: 00:01 Introduction 02:11 How NLRP3 inflammasome drives cytokine storms 04:25 Long COVID as a failure to turn inflammation off 05:48 How autism research prepared Dr. Deth for COVID vaccine concerns 09:47 Inoculation vs. vaccination  11:18 What an adjuvant does and why aluminum is not short-term 14:20 Natural COVID infection vs. vaccination 15:32 mRNA reverse transcription and genomic implications 19:09 Autism research as a roadmap for understanding long COVID 20:38 Autism as a metabolic disorder 23:16 Why the brain is uniquely vulnerable to oxidative stress 25:04 High fructose corn syrup, BPA, pesticides, herbicides 26:44 The NLRP3 inflammasome as a metabolic sensor 32:15 How gluten and casein block cysteine absorption 34:57 Nutritional deficiencies cannot be solved by pharmaceuticals alone 36:36 How low glutathione increases the risk of adverse drug effects   If your body feels like it's running on empty, overburdened, or just not responding the way it used to, Haylie's latest book, Toxic Overload, tells you exactly what to do.

In today's episode, Haylie Pomroy is with Jeff Cournoyer, exercise physiologist at the Institute for Neuro-Immune Medicine (INIM), to talk about what exercise actually means for people with chronic illness and how to know when movement is helping versus making things worse. Jeff reframes exercise entirely: sitting, talking, carrying groceries, riding in a car are all forms of exertion. For people with ME/CFS and long COVID, the body is stuck in the on position all day, and every activity draws from an already depleted energy account.  He also shares tools anyone can use at home: the talk test, a simple heart rate formula, and why offensively low-intensity exercise is often the most therapeutic prescription available.  If exercise has been making you feel worse, this one is for you.

In today's episode, Haylie Pomroy is with Denise Kruszynski, a board-certified functional medicine nurse practitioner at the Institute for Neuro Immune Medicine, to talk about what is broken in modern healthcare, why complex chronic illness patients keep falling through the cracks, and what can actually be done about it. Denise brings 25 years of clinical experience, including a decade in a level one trauma ICU, to a conversation that is both practical and urgent. She walks through why 15-minute primary care visits make root cause medicine structurally impossible, why specialist appointments offer more time but still only look at one system in a body where everything is connected, and why functional medicine, what she calls primary care 3.0, is the tier of care most patients with chronic illness have never had access to. She also gives our community something concrete: if you feel stuck and don't know where to start, write your life down. The answers are often already in your story. You just need space and someone who will ask the right questions. If you have been dismissed, rushed, or told your labs are fine when something clearly is not, this episode of Fast Metabolism Matters is your permission slip to expect more.  If your body feels like it's running on empty, overburdened, or just not responding the way it used to, Haylie's latest book, Toxic Overload, tells you exactly what to do.

What is actually driving the rise in autoimmune disease?    In today's episode, Haylie Pomroy is joined by Dr. Marc Kesselman, Chair of Internal Medicine and Chief of Rheumatology at Nova Southeastern University, to dig into the hidden drivers of autoimmune disease and what patients can actually do about them.   Dr. Kesselman breaks down how COVID-19, vaccine adjuvants, environmental toxins, gut microbiome imbalance, and Epstein-Barr virus all contribute to the rising wave of autoimmune conditions. He explains why non-celiac gluten sensitivity is real even when tests come back negative, how food rotation and plant diversity help protect the microbiome, and why autoantibodies can appear in the bloodstream 15 to 20 years before a single symptom shows up.   He also covers a piece of the autoimmune conversation that most patients never hear: why chronic inflammation significantly raises cardiovascular risk even when cholesterol looks normal, and which tests can catch it before it becomes a crisis.   If you have been told your labs are fine but something still feels wrong, this episode is for you.
