Listeners asked, so I'm answering. In this episode, we’re pulling back the curtain on one of the most powerful tools in personalized health: pH 360. You’ve heard it mentioned before, but today, we’re going deeper into the how and why behind it. How can a system understand your body so precisely it feels almost eerie? And why are so many people stuck spinning their wheels with one-size-fits-all approaches that were never designed for them in the first place?

This conversation breaks down the science, technology, and real-world application of a platform that analyzes thousands of data points to create truly individualized health and lifestyle strategies. From body measurements and environment to hormones, genetics, and behavior patterns, this is about understanding you at a level most people never experience.

Because your health isn’t random. It’s responsive. And when you finally stop guessing and start working with your biology instead of against it, everything changes.

If you’ve ever felt frustrated, stuck, or like nothing is working… this episode will shift how you see your body, and what’s actually possible for you.

In this episode:

• What pH 360 is and why it’s a game-changer in personalized health
• How 10,000+ data points are used to create your unique “health code”
• The science behind epigenetics and how lifestyle impacts gene expression
• Why one-size-fits-all health advice often fails (and what to do instead)
• How your environment, stress, and daily habits influence your results
• The role of anthropometry (body measurements) in predicting health risks
• The 6 health types and what they reveal about your body and tendencies
• How AI-powered tools like CLIA enhance precision and personalization
• Real client transformations, from blood sugar regulation to inflammation reduction
• Why guessing your way through health is keeping you stuck

What if the root cause of neurodegenerative disease isn’t just genetics, but something we’ve been overlooking?

In this episode, I sit down with Nikki Schultek to explore the connection between pathogens, brain health, and chronic illness. We dive into how infections like Lyme and other often undetected microbes may influence cognitive decline, and why so many people are being missed in the current system.

Nikki shares her journey from patient to researcher and the work she’s leading to uncover how infections, genetics, and environment interact to shape disease. This conversation will challenge what you think you know about Alzheimer’s, brain health, and what it really means to address root cause.

In This Episode:

• The connection between infections and neurodegenerative disease
• Why Lyme and other pathogens are often overlooked
• How infections can impact the brain across the lifespan
• The role of genetics, and why they’re not the full story
• Why standard testing may miss chronic infections
• Early signs like changes in smell and cognitive function
• How to advocate for your health and dig deeper into root causes

Peptides are one of the most talked-about tools in health right now, but with all the attention has come a lot of confusion. In this episode, Susan sits down with peptide expert Connor Dean for a real, accessible conversation about what peptides are, how they work, and why quality, sourcing, and proper guidance matter.

Together, they break down the difference between compounded peptides and FDA-approved options, explore common peptides like BPC-157 and GHK-Cu, and discuss the benefits and limitations of different delivery methods. They also take a deeper look at GLP-1 medications, covering how they work, who they may help, potential side effects, and why lifestyle still has to be the foundation of long-term health.

If you’ve been curious about peptides, recovery, gut support, muscle building, or GLP-1s, this episode is a powerful Peptides 101 conversation designed to help you make more informed decisions.

In this episode:

• What peptides are and how they work
  
  
• The difference between compounded and FDA-approved peptides
  
  
• Why peptide quality and sourcing matter
  
  
• Common peptides for recovery, gut health, skin, and muscle support
  
  
• The pros and cons of different delivery methods
  
  
• How GLP-1s work, plus risks and side effects to consider
