Episodios
  • The Inflammation Code with Dr. Shivani Gupta
    Mar 7 2026

    In this episode, Dr. Pinkston sits down with Dr. Shivani Gupta, an Ayurvedic expert with a PhD in Turmeric and author of The Inflammation Code. They explore the bridge between Eastern wisdom and Western medicine, detailing how to reverse the "negative stack" of modern life—stress, blue light, and processed foods—through simple, nature-aligned rituals.

    Episode Highlights

    • The Two Worlds of Healing: Dr. Gupta discusses growing up between Houston's conventional pediatrics and her grandmother’s Indian spice cabinet, eventually leading her to a PhD quest to validate ancient remedies with modern science.

    • The Six Pillars of Ayurveda: Insights into Elemental Design (Air, Ether, Fire, Water, Earth) and how understanding your specific type helps you build a lifestyle that wins against inflammation.

    • Mental vs. Physical Inflammation: A breakdown of how chronic stress and "mental inflammation" create a feedback loop that damages the gut and dysregulates hormones.

    • The Power of Turmeric & Curcumin: Why your kitchen spice isn't enough to fight chronic pain and how specific extracts (curcuminoids) act as the "ultimate janitor" for your cells.

    • Vagus Nerve Toning: Discussion on the Apollo Neuro and other biohacking tools that help transition the body from "survival mode" (sympathetic) to "healing mode" (parasympathetic).

  • The Ancient Wisdom of Ayurveda: Balancing Mind, Body, and Spirit with Brett Aldrich
    Feb 28 2026

    In this episode of The Better Life, Dr. Pinkston welcomes Brett Aldrich, founder of Seed the Spirit, for a deep dive into the 5,000-year-old science of Ayurvedic medicine. As an Ayurvedic healthcare counselor and somatic breathwork teacher, Brett shares how we can move beyond the "corporate model" of contemporary medicine to find a personalized path toward true wellness.

    The conversation explores how the five elements—earth, water, fire, air, and ether—make up our unique constitutions and how "doshas" (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha) influence everything from our physical health to our emotional temperament. Brett explains that while the world around us may feel chaotic, Ayurveda provides the tools to remain centered and "whole" within that chaos.

  • Cognitive Health and the Power of L-Methylfolate
    Feb 21 2026

    In this episode of The Better Life, Dr. Pinkston welcomes back Dr. Warren Lesser from Magna Pharmaceuticals to dive deep into the science behind the "winter blues" and Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). They explore why many people experience a "bummer and dumber" effect during the darker months, as reduced sunlight affects not only our mood but also our processing speed, memory, and cognitive function.

    The conversation highlights the critical role of neurotransmitters like serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine, and how a deficiency in L-methylfolate (B9) and B12 can hinder the body's ability to produce these "feel-good" chemicals. Dr. Lesser explains why traditional antidepressants often fail if the body lacks the necessary nutritional substrates to make them work. They also discuss how the De Novo Plus B12 supplement provides the high-dose, bioavailable nutrients needed to cross the blood-brain barrier and support mental health, energy, and overall longevity.
