Summary
In this episode, Dr. Jockers reviews his own total toxic burden lab results with Dr. Paul Savage, uncovering why the findings were far more concerning than expected despite feeling strong, energized, and healthy. It sets the stage for why symptoms alone don't always tell the full story.
The conversation breaks down the most significant toxin categories showing up on the labs, including mold, plastics, pesticides, and forever chemicals. You'll learn how these exposures quietly accumulate over time and why even health-conscious lifestyles don't guarantee protection.
The discussion explores how plasma exchange works as a science-backed way to directly reduce toxic load and why it's being used for longevity and chronic inflammatory conditions. Along the way, common detox assumptions are challenged, leaving room for deeper insights as the episode unfolds.

| 0:00.0 | And the plasma is the conduit that carries everything in the body. So it carries good, bad, and |
| 0:04.6 | ugly, nutrients, hormones, medications, inflammation, toxins, oxidations. It carries everything. So in the |
| 0:12.7 | plasma change, we throw the plasma away because we want to get rid of the bad stuff. And then we |
| 0:17.6 | combine yourselves with a replacement fluid and send them back into your body. |
| 0:22.8 | Well, welcome back to the podcast. |
| 0:24.7 | Today, I am actually reviewing my labs with Dr. Paul Savage. |
| 0:30.5 | We did the vibrant wellness, total toxic burden test. |
| 0:35.5 | And my labs surprisingly were quite high in toxins. Now, there was an issue. |
| 0:39.5 | There was a flaw with my lab test, which will explain as we go that my urine creatinine |
| 0:46.2 | levels were very low, which meant that I was over hydrated. So the results are not necessarily |
| 0:53.8 | accurate. |

| 1:10.0 | Very rarely am I fatigue throughout the day. I feel phenomenal. I rarely get sick. So I was pretty surprised at the results. But with that said, we go through these lab results and we talk a lot about the plasma exchange. And if you have been listening to my podcast for any period of time, I've had Dr. Paul Savage on before. |
| 1:28.3 | In fact, episode 605, we talked about the most powerful way to reduce toxicity and chronic inflammation. |
| 1:33.3 | And we talked all about plasma exchange, the stuff that MD Lifespan.com does. |
| 1:40.3 | I mean, I'm a huge advocate of what MD Lifespan, MD as in medical doctor Lifespan.com, |
| 1:47.3 | what they do, what Dr. Paul Savage has been doing. He is just a brilliant mind in this space, |
