279. There's Microplastics Already Inside Your Body. Here’s How to Detox Microplastics Fast
The Ultimate Human with Gary BreckaShow Notes
You might think microplastics are an ocean problem, but research suggests you're carrying roughly a credit card's worth of plastic inside your body right now, circulating through your bloodstream and settling into your organs, your brain, and even reproductive tissue. In this episode, I break down how plastic gets in and walk you through my 5-step protocol to lower your total burden: filtering your water, never heating food in plastic, supporting gut motility, regular sauna use, and boosting your body's own glutathione and antioxidant pathways. No single step reverses years of accumulation, but when you stop overwhelming the system and start supporting it, you work with the biology you already have.

Daymond John and Heather John sit down with Gary Brecka to talk about the daily habits behind how they feel. Gary says it isn’t keto or carnivore that extends life, it’s cutting out processed food. They also get into blood sugar markers like glucose, A1C and insulin, why fasting hunger comes in 20 minute waves, the COMT worrier gene, matcha, and Heather’s parasite cleanse story. Don’t guess, test.
Dr. Jigar Gandhi returns to break down the detox order he uses with patients: parasites first, then mold, heavy metals. He explains how cavitations and mold in the jaw may stall detox, why a veneer seam can become a place for fungus to grow, how a liver flush fits in, and why glycine comes up with glyphosate. He also covers the tests he trusts, including the cone beam scan and DMPS provoked metals test. Don’t guess, test.
Many weighted vests hang the load on your shoulders and leave your back to take the hit. Gary Brecka sits down with Brent Yates, author of The Gravity of Up, to break down how weight, compression and heat work together, why your tendons, ligaments and fascia need time to adapt, and where to start (3 to 5% of body weight). Plus the progressive load problem Brent is working on for military recruits. Don't guess, test.
You might think perimenopause is a 50s problem, but Dr. Remina Panjwani says it can start in your late 30s. She and Gary Brecka go through the early signs, from 3 a.m. wakeups and brain fog to a belly that changes no matter what you eat. They also cover why she prefers the DUTCH test over standard blood work, and how chronic stress and cortisol affect your hormones.
