In this episode, Dr. Jason Dean breaks down the latest headlines on parasites, microplastics, and how they're being used to drive fear and pharmaceutical dependence. We cover the Michigan Cyclospora outbreak, the growing evidence on microplastics in the brain and cardiovascular system, and why LDL cholesterol is NOT the villain you've been told it is.

Dr. Dean also exposes "Pharma 2.0" — the new wave of genetic and injectable cholesterol drugs, the weaponization of media and sports sponsorships, and how this all ties into chronic disease, thyroid dysfunction, and stress hormones.

Stay to the end for a new resource: Natural Health Secrets, including a free downloadable guide on stress hormones, adrenaline, cortisol, and low thyroid function so you can better understand your own physiology and take back control of your health.
