Your mouth isn’t separate from your health—it’s a control center. In this candid, practical conversation, Elizabeth sits down with Dr. Ilona Fotek, a recognized leader in biological & cosmetic dentistry and founder of Dental Healing Arts (Jupiter, FL), to map the mouth–body connection and the overlooked dental “root causes” behind fatigue, sinus issues, brain fog, cardiovascular risk, and more.

We unpack:

• Cavitations & infected root canals: what they are, why they’re missed on 2D X-rays, and how CBCT finds them
• The oral microbiome (spirochetes, Candida), in-office saliva testing, and microscope visuals that change behavior
• Everyday choices that erode enamel: lemon water, kombucha, citric-acid electrolytes, dark-roast coffee—and how to protect your teeth (salt-water rinse → then brush)
• Safer oral care: nano-hydroxyapatite > fluoride for remineralization; mouthwash pitfalls; oil pulling; tongue scraping; electric brushing
• Ozone dentistry to rescue teeth and support gum health
• Airway & bite: grinding, myofunctional therapy, tongue-ties, and the “small jaw” epidemic in kids
• Implants & materials: pure titanium vs zirconia, when each makes sense, and sensitivity testing (ELISA)
• Smart hygiene routines (brush/floss/tongue, peroxide soaks for trays/guards)

NFL veteran and analyst Brian Baldinger joins Elizabeth to talk candidly about pain, recovery, and staying sharp after 13 seasons in the league. Brian shares what actually moved the needle for him—from IV and nebulized exosomes to stem cells, PRP, peptides, and hyperbaric oxygen. Elizabeth breaks down why these therapies may help with inflammation and neuro-recovery, plus the often-missed root causes in athletes: gut triggers (gluten/lectins/nightshades), heavy-metal and tick exposures, insulin resistance (A1C targets, berberine), and vascular health. They also discuss ozone therapies (including EBO2), compression and circulation, mindset, and the transition out of pro sports. Brian’s takeaway: make your health your life’s work—on and off the field. Perfect for athletes, weekend warriors, and anyone curious about performance-driven functional medicine.

Why do you still feel unwell when your labs look “normal”? In this episode, Elizabeth sits down with Molly Segal, Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner (FDNP), board-certified health & wellness coach, and co-host of Biohacking Blondes—now joining Tringali Vibrant Health.

They unpack how FDNPs bridge the gap between coaching and clinical care, using advanced testing (blood chemistry with optimal ranges, DUTCH, GI-MAP, food sensitivity testing, targeted genetics) to find root causes across gut, hormone, and mental health. Molly shares her perimenopause/long-COVID story, why starting with hormones can accelerate results, and the behavior-change tools that help patients actually follow through. You’ll also hear practical takeaways on progesterone, vitamin D, electrolytes, amino acids, movement “snacks,” and teaching kids healthy habits while limiting screen-time anxiety.

If “everything’s fine” hasn’t felt fine, this conversation shows a smarter path to feeling vibrant again—backed by data, made doable with support.

In this powerful episode, we sit down with Victoria, a patient with a complicated medical history whose journey through severe food intolerances, allergies, severe back pain, and mast cell activation left her reacting to nearly everything—even water. After trying many therapies with little success, Victoria turned to a cutting-edge regenerative approach: nebulized exosomes. What happened next surprised even her providers. Tune in to hear how this emerging therapy brought her dramatic relief and what it could mean for others struggling with complex, chronic conditions.

In this third installment of our exosome series, Elizabeth sits down with board-certified neurosurgeon and regenerative medicine expert Dr. Jeffrey Gross to dive even deeper into one of the most exciting frontiers in medicine: exosomes. From joint regeneration to brain health and even fertility, they explore why exosomes may be more effective, more affordable, and less invasive than stem cells—and how they’re transforming patient care at the cellular level.

Dr. Gross shares his journey from surgery to regenerative therapy, explaining how amniotic-derived exosomes are delivering remarkable results for knees, shoulders, traumatic brain injuries, sexual health, and more. They also unpack key questions around sourcing, FDA oversight, and patient access—making a compelling case for a major shift in how we think about healing.

Whether you're looking to avoid surgery or simply fascinated by the future of medicine, this conversation delivers insight, humor, and clinical pearls you won’t want to miss.

Patient, model, and producer Margaret Luce joins Elizabeth and Dr. Scott Martin to share her personal journey with exosomes—from avoiding surgery to restoring hair, healing injuries, and enhancing skin. A lively conversation about beauty, regeneration, and what it means to age vibrantly.
