ADHD, Brain Fog, Dementia Caused By Heavy Metals (And How To Detox) | Clark Engelbert
Myers Detox PodcastShow Notes
Is your brain accumulating toxins that are stealing your focus, memory, and mental clarity without you even knowing it? Research shows that heavy metals enter the brain by hijacking your own mineral pathways, a process known as ionic mimicry. And most people have no idea it's happening. I sit down with Clark Engelbert to break down exactly how metals like aluminum, lead, cadmium, and mercury cross the blood-brain barrier and what they do to the brain. Clark shares current research on aluminum in postmortem autistic and Alzheimer's brains and explains why mineral deficiency opens the door to metal toxicity. His client results speak for themselves: nonverbal autistic kids going verbal, ADHD symptoms reduced, panic disorder resolved, bone density improved, all through mineral balancing and HTMA. If brain fog, memory loss, or cognitive decline concerns you, this episode will reframe your approach to reclaiming your brain's health.
"Everyone is subclinically toxic in metals. It doesn't really matter who you are, where you live, or your stage of life. Everyone has metal toxicity." ~Clark Engelbert

Why are peptides one of the most searched health topics online right now? Today, Awais Spall, founder of Integrative Oasis, joins me to explain which peptides are worth knowing about. He shares how peptides pulled him out of chronic pain after high school. He also describes how Thymosin alpha-1 had him wondering overnight whether he'd even been sick. We cover BPC-157 for repair, and GLP-1s for blood sugar and fatty liver. We also talk about epitalon and bioregulators for longevity, and KPV for histamine and food sensitivities. You'll learn which peptides support focus and ADHD, and why sermorelin is a safer choice than straight growth hormone. Awais also explains how to get started without getting lost in the internet's "bro science." If you've been curious about peptides, this is a great place to begin.
Have you rested for weeks and still woken up exhausted, only to be told your tests look normal? Fatigue is the number one complaint I hear from my patients, and too many of them are left without answers, so their world just shrinks. Today I'm joined by Miguel Bautista, founder of CFS Recovery. Miguel saw nearly 40 specialists, spent eight months bedridden, and had to relearn how to walk. His turning point came when a doctor explained that his hypersensitive nervous system was stuck in survival mode. He explains why, if testing rules out other causes, rest alone will often make things worse. We also get into the three buckets of recovery, the common mistakes that keep people stuck in fatigue, and how progress cycles help you rebuild capacity without crashing. If you're dealing with chronic fatigue and feel like you've tried everything, this conversation offers a recovery framework and a lot of hope.
Have you ever been told you're too sick to detox? Or maybe every binder, mineral, or protocol you try leaves you feeling worse, so you've started to believe your body just can't handle it. What if the problem isn't your body, but the method? Today I'm hosting Jeff Hoyt, founder of Zeolite Labs and creator of ZeoCharge, to explain how clinoptilolite zeolite works as a selective binder. Jeff breaks down the dosing paradox and why one cautious sip can trigger more symptoms than a full therapeutic dose. He clears up the aluminum question and the problem with liquid and nano zeolites. We also get into EMFs, mycotoxins, and why your cellular voltage affects how well you detox. If you've struggled to tolerate detox protocols, this conversation offers a gentler, more sustainable way to lighten your toxic load.
What if the reason you can't get pregnant has as much to do with his health as yours? Most fertility conversations start and end with a woman's eggs and her age. Yet close to 80% of IVF cycles don't end in a live birth, and couples are spending $25,000 a round to find that out. Today I'm joined by fertility specialist Dr. Gabriela Rosa, who has spent 25 years helping couples who've been trying for four years or more. She explains why fertility is a team sport, how drinking, smoking, toxins, and age drive sperm DNA fragmentation, and why preconception care really takes 12 months, not three. Gabriela also shares her fertility method, which produced a 78.8% live birth rate in couples who felt they'd tried everything. You'll also learn why small daily moments of joy may matter more than you think. If you or someone you love is trying to conceive, this conversation offers a clear, hopeful place to start.
Is your missing sex drive just part of getting older? I'm joined by Jennifer Gularson, a women's midlife health and hormone expert, to explain why libido fades in perimenopause and menopause, and the solutions available for women. We cover testosterone dosing and the pros and cons of creams, injections, and pellets. We also get into why oral progesterone can change your sleep and stress, and how high cortisol pulls resources away from your sex hormones. Jennifer explains how vaginal estrogen improves comfort and helps prevent recurring UTIs, and why feeling safe matters so much for desire. We also look at metabolism, microdosed GLP-1s, sleep hygiene, and fast-acting options.
