    I Tested My Fish Oil at Home (45% Chance Yours Is Already Rancid) | Heal Thy Self w/ Dr. G #490

    There is a 45% chance the fish oil sitting in your cabinet right now is already oxidized. And rancid omega-3s do not just fail to help you. Research shows they generate pro-inflammatory byproducts that work against everything you are taking fish oil for.

    Dr. G breaks down exactly how this happens, how to test what is in your cabinet tonight with zero equipment, and what to actually look for before you buy another bottle.


    In this episode, you will learn:

     • The two oxidation markers most brands count on you never knowing about, the peroxide value and the anisidin value, and the total oxidation score that tells you whether your fish oil is actually fresh

     • Why the number on the front of your fish oil bottle is not the amount of omega-3s you are getting, and the simple math that reveals whether you have been underdosing for years

     • The at-home test you can do right now with one capsule, a pin, and 30 seconds that will tell you immediately whether to keep your fish oil or throw it away


    Plus the specific brands that passed Dr. G's independent investigation for certificate of analysis standards, packaging, storage, meaningful EPA and DHA doses, and proper oxidation scores.

    I Ditched Neosporin for This — Here Is What Happened | ft. Justin Gardner HTS w/ Dr. G #489

    → Active Skin Repair | Head to https://activeskinrepair.com and use code DRG at checkout for 25% off all Active Skin Repair products. (Discount returns to standard rate after June 8th)


    Episode Description

    You've been using alcohol, hydrogen peroxide, and Neosporin your whole life. And none of them are actually helping you heal faster. In fact, they may be slowing you down.

    Justin Gardner is the founder of Active Skin Repair, a medical grade hypochlorous acid product that was originally developed for hospital use in burn units, wound care centers, and neonatal ICUs before he licensed it and brought it to the public. Dr. G has been using it since 2019, including once when he cut his finger open deep in the mountains of Tanga and used it instead of stitches. Eight days later it was nearly sealed. Three weeks later, no scar.

    In this episode, you'll discover:

     • What hypochlorous acid actually is, why your white blood cells already produce it, and why it kills 99.9% of bacteria, fungi, and viruses within 15 seconds with the same safety profile as saline solution

     • Why alcohol and hydrogen peroxide kill the healthy growth factors your body produces to heal itself, and how hypochlorous acid cleans the wound without impairing the repair process

     • How parents, kids, pets, athletes, and anyone dealing with acne, eczema, sunburns, diaper rash, or chronic wounds can use one bottle for almost everything

    This is the Windex of skin care. In the best possible way.

    These 3 Things Together Reduce Cancer Risk by 61% | Heal Thy Self w/ Dr. G #488

    → Get My Brand Masterlist: ⁠⁠https://drchristiangonzalez.com/best-brands-form-2-2/⁠⁠


    Episode Description


    In 2025, researchers published what may be the most important longevity study of the decade. Three years. Over 2,000 participants. A randomized controlled trial. And the results stopped the researchers themselves.


    A 61% reduction in invasive cancer risk. A 39% reduction in becoming physically frail. And measurable slowing of biological aging, verified by epigenetic clocks, the most sophisticated tool science has for measuring how fast your cells are actually aging. These were not elite athletes. They were regular older adults. And the three things that produced these results are inexpensive, accessible, and available at any supplement store.


    Most people are either missing them entirely or doing them in a way that produces almost no benefit. Dr. G breaks down exactly what the study found and what you need to do with it.


    In this episode, you'll learn:

     • Why omega-3 deficiency carries a mortality risk comparable to smoking, and the specific EPA and DHA dose that the research shows actually slows biological aging at the cellular level

     • Why vitamin D is not optional if you exercise, and why low vitamin D means the training you are already doing is producing a fraction of the benefit it should

     • Why the combination of all three produces results that are not additive but multiplicative, and what that means for anyone over 40 who wants to change their biological trajectory

    The window that matters most is not when you are 60. It is now.

    Ora Organics | Head to https://ora.organic/pages/drg and use my code HEALTHYSELF30 to enjoy 30% off your first Ora order today.


    Episode Description


    The way you show up in relationships today was decided before you even knew how to speak.


    Eli Harwood is a licensed therapist, the creator of Attachment Nerd, and the author of How to Deal with Your (Anxiety, Anger, Self-Doubt, Insecurity, Trauma) So Your Kids Don't Have To. She spent nearly 20 years sitting with families watching parents who desperately wanted better for their children but had no roadmap for how to actually get there. This conversation goes deep into why 50% of us never experienced secure attachment, what that did to our sense of self, and what it actually takes to break the cycle before it passes to the next generation.


    In this episode, you'll discover:

     • Why chaos can feel more like home than safety, and why the people who confuse you are often more magnetic than the people who make you feel secure

     • What happens developmentally when a child grows up in an unpredictable home and how that wound silently shapes every relationship, every breakup, and every parenting moment that follows

     • The difference between intellectually knowing this work and actually doing it, and why your kids will find every unhealed part of you no matter what

    This one is for every parent, every soon to be parent, and every adult who is still trying to figure out why love feels so complicated.

    If You Are 40 and Not Taking Creatine You Are Already Behind — Here Is Why | Heal Thy Self w/ Dr. G #486

    → Get My Brand Masterlist: ⁠https://drchristiangonzalez.com/best-brands-form-2-2/⁠


    Episode Description

    If you are a man over 40 and you are not taking creatine, you are aging with one hand behind your back.

    Between 40 and 60, men lose 3 to 8% of their muscle mass per decade. After 60, that rate accelerates. Brain creatine levels decline with age. Bone density goes down. And the body's ability to synthesize creatine on its own decreases too. Meanwhile, creatine remains one of the most researched, most affordable, and safest supplements in existence and most men over 40 either aren't taking it or are taking it wrong.

    Dr. G breaks down exactly what the research says, what dose actually works for your brain versus your muscles, and what to look for before you buy.


    In this episode, you'll learn:

     • Why 5 grams a day saturates your muscles but does almost nothing for your brain, and what the emerging research says about the dose you actually need for cognitive protection, focus, and sleep deprivation recovery

     • How creatine supports bone mineral density, mitochondrial stability, and antioxidant defense at the cellular level, not just muscle size

     • Exactly what form to buy, what certifications to look for, and what to avoid when creatine shopping in 2026


    This one is for every man over 40. And for every woman who has one in her life.

    Episode Description

    You can eat 30 grams of fiber a day and still be making the wrong choice for your microbiome. Because it was never just about how much you eat. It's about where that fiber is actually fermenting in your colon.

    Dr. Karan Rajan is a surgeon, gut health expert, and one of the most followed doctors on the internet. He spent years operating on colon cancers and bowel disease before realizing the most powerful thing he could do was hand people the information they were never given. In this conversation he breaks down the gut in a way that will make you want to reorganize your entire kitchen by the time it's over.


    In this episode, you'll discover:

     • Why the old soluble vs insoluble fiber model is outdated and what fermentation geography actually means — and how eating only one type of fiber can cause gas and bloating even when you're hitting your daily target

     • Why the protein obsession sweeping wellness culture may be quietly turning your gut bacteria into gremlins, and what happens when your microbes run out of fiber to eat

     • How your microbiome can begin to change within 48 hours of increasing fiber intake, and the exact ramp up strategy Dr. Karan uses to avoid the gas and bloating that makes most people quit

    If you have a gut, this episode is for you.

    I Tested 51 'Premium' Magnesium Brands for Toxins (Only 5 Passed)

    Shop all my verified, tested and preferred wellness products - includes most up to date brands: https://theswellscore.com/pages/drg


    Episode Description

    51 magnesium companies contacted. 45 never responded. And only 5 could actually prove what's inside their product.

    Magnesium is involved in over 300 biochemical reactions in your body. Most Americans are severely depleted. And yet the brands with the biggest marketing budgets, the ones on every health food store shelf, couldn't show a single document proving their product is pure, absorbed, or safe to take every day. Dr. G ran the full investigation so you know exactly where your money should and shouldn't be going.


    In this episode, you'll find out:

     • Why the form of magnesium matters more than the brand — and why the most common form on the market has roughly 4% bioavailability, making it essentially useless for sleep, anxiety, or muscle recovery

     • Which 5 magnesium brands passed the full investigation including heavy metal testing, third party batch verification, and contamination screening

     • The full list of brands that went silent — including names recommended by practitioners and sold in every major health store — and why silence is its own answer

    You take this every day. Make sure what you're taking actually works.

    Episode Description

    What if the disease in your body isn't just yours — what if it's been waiting in your family for generations for someone to finally break it?

    Darlene Cordero was diagnosed with stage zero breast cancer, did everything right, and thought she was through it. Then years later, weeks after losing her father and one month after her godmother was murdered, she was blindsided by a stage 4 diagnosis that had spread to her liver. Her doctors had no explanation. She did — because she had done the deep work to understand what her body had been carrying long before any scan could show it. Three years later, she is one of the most alive, grounded, and radically honest human beings Dr. G has ever sat across from.


    In this episode, you'll discover:

     • Why Darlene believes her breast cancer has a generational root — the pattern of women in her lineage giving everything and receiving nothing, repeated across four generations — and what it finally took to break it

     • What a death doula actually does, why looking directly at death might be the most life-giving thing you ever do, and why American culture's avoidance of it is quietly making us sicker

     • What came through in a plant medicine journey that stopped Darlene cold: the words "you are the sacrifice" — and what that meant for her healing

    This is not a sad episode. There is no victimization here. This is one of the most alive conversations on this entire podcast.

    Bottled Water vs Tap Water: Which Is Actually Better to Drink? | Heal Thy Self w/ Dr. G #482

    → Get My Brand Masterlist: https://drchristiangonzalez.com/best-brands-form-2-2/


    Episode Description

    Bottled water isn't safer than tap. Tap water isn't safe either. And almost nobody actually knows what's in either one.

    There are over 90 regulated contaminants in municipal tap water — and another 100+ that are completely unregulated. Bottled water is regulated by the FDA, which holds it to less stringent standards than what your city requires for tap. And research shows that people who rely on bottled water ingest roughly 90,000 more microplastics per year — coming straight from the plastic bottle itself. Dr. G ran the investigation so you know exactly where to put your money and what to stop buying immediately.


    In this episode, you'll find out:

     • The 5 categories of contaminants hiding in your water right now — disinfection byproducts, PFAS forever chemicals, heavy metals, microplastics, and pharmaceuticals — and why the legal limit is not the same as safe

     • Which bottled water brands actually passed transparency testing and which ones are just repackaged tap water in plastic

     • The best filtration systems at every budget — from under $100 pitchers to countertop reverse osmosis — and what each one actually removes

    You drink water every single day. This is the episode that tells you what's actually in it.

    Episode Description

    You're not failing at healthy eating. You're navigating a food system that was never designed to help you succeed.

    Kasper Wickzén spent 15 years inside major food companies (Kraft Heinz, Danone) watching how products were engineered to drive cravings, not nourish bodies. Then his father got diabetes eating what most of us would call a normal diet. That was the turning point. Now he's the co-founder of Sigrid, and after 15 years of research and six clinical trials, he's bringing to market something Dr. G calls one of the most revolutionary metabolic tools he's seen: a natural silica-based particle that slows digestion so your body can actually handle the energy coming in.

    In this episode, you'll discover:

     • Why blood sugar spikes aren't just about junk food - bread, rice, potatoes, and pasta are doing the same thing to your system meal after meal

     • How Sigrid's SiPore® technology physically slows enzyme activity in the gut to flatten glucose curves, reduce cravings, and extend energy - without blocking digestion

     • Why only 1 in 10 Americans is actually metabolically healthy, and what that means for your energy, mood, weight, and relationships

    Episode Description

    You drink coffee every single day. But nobody ever told you it might also be delivering heavy metals, pesticides, and mold directly into your body.

    Dr. G contacted 50 coffee companies and asked for one thing — show us your third party testing. 43 never responded. One opted out. One refused to share documentation. And only 3 brands could actually prove what's in their product. In an industry worth billions, built on daily consumption, that number should stop you cold.

    In this episode, you'll find out:

     • Which 3 coffee brands passed the full investigation — heavy metals, pesticides, mold toxins, microbial safety — and what made them stand out

     • The full list of brands that never responded, and why silence is its own answer

     • Why "organic," "clean," and "third party tested" on a label means nothing without the actual documentation to back it up


    Popularity does not equal purity. This is the episode you share with everyone who starts their morning with coffee.
