  • Is Mold the Missing Link in Your Chronic Illness?

    Is Mold the Missing Link in Your Chronic Illness?
    Dec 4 2025
    Dr. Rodger Murphree—board-certified nutritional specialist, chiropractic physician, and functional medicine expert—explains why mold toxicity has become a major hidden driver of chronic illness. He breaks down the difference between simple mold allergies and true mold toxicity, how mycotoxins damage the mitochondria, trigger chronic inflammation and oxidative stress, and why one in four people are genetically more vulnerable. Using real-world fibromyalgia and chronic illness cases, he shows how symptoms like fatigue, pain, brain fog, neuropathy, mood changes, breathing problems, gut issues, and skin flares are often tied back to past or current mold exposure in homes, offices, cars, and even foods. From there, Dr. Murphree lays out a practical framework for both investigation and treatment: how to inspect your home, when ERMI testing is superior to basic air tests, how urine mycotoxin testing works, and when professional remediation is worth the cost. He then walks through a stepwise protocol—starting with glutathione and NAC for protection, adding Saccharomyces boulardii and binders like GI Detox or MycoPul, layering in antifungals such as Biocidin and yeast formulas, then addressing sinus biofilms with colloidal silver sprays. He also discusses liver support nutrients, glutathione-supportive foods, sauna therapy, air purifiers, and strategic houseplants to reduce ongoing exposure. The training is educational and encourages working with a qualified healthcare professional before starting any mold protocol, detox regimen, or changing existing treatments.

  • Balancing Neurotransmitters Naturally: A Functional Medicine Approach to Anxiety, Depression, and Fibro Brain

    Balancing Neurotransmitters Naturally: A Functional Medicine Approach to Anxiety, Depression, and Fibro Brain
    Nov 19 2025
    Dr. Rodger Murphree—board-certified nutritional specialist, chiropractic physician, and functional medicine expert—explains why so many chronic illness cases have become harder to treat in the last decade and why toxic mold is often the hidden, overlooked driver. He shares how patients who once responded quickly to fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue protocols started stalling out, what he learned from mold expert Dr. Neil Nathan, and why we’re now seeing an epidemic of environmentally induced illnesses. Dr. Murphree breaks down the difference between simple mold allergies and true mold toxicity, how mycotoxins damage mitochondria, drive chronic inflammation, and trigger a “cell danger response” that can show up as fatigue, pain, brain fog, mood changes, neuropathy, gut issues, skin problems, and more—even years after leaving a moldy environment. From there, Dr. Murphree reframes many “mystery” conditions as toxic burden problems that require detective work and a structured protocol, not just more symptom drugs. He walks through how to inspect your home and workplace, why he prefers ERMI dust testing over basic air tests, and how urine mycotoxin testing can confirm internal exposure. Then he outlines a stepwise functional medicine plan: protecting the body with glutathione and NAC, priming the gut with Saccharomyces boulardii, using binders like GI Detox or MycoPul, layering in antifungals such as Biocidin, adding colloidal silver nasal spray to clear the sinuses, and supporting detox with diet, saunas, liver support, air purifiers, and strategic houseplants. The training is educational and emphasizes working with a qualified healthcare professional for testing, interpretation, and any treatment decisions. CHAPTERS (00:00) Welcome and goals for today (02:10) Why mood and fatigue tie to brain chemicals (05:20) The antidepressant reality check (09:40) Benzodiazepines risks and dependence (14:30) CoQ10 and melatonin depletion (18:10) SSRI side effects and drug stacking (22:50) Sleep as the foundation (27:10) Gasoline additive vs empty tank (31:00) What neurotransmitters are (34:20) Amino acids and cofactors explained (38:40) Serotonin pathway and 5-HTP (43:00) B vitamins, folate, and B12 (47:30) Omega-3 vs omega-6 balance (52:10) Brain function questionnaire overview (54:00) Opioid group and DLPA (58:20) GABA group and calming supports (1:02:40) Dopamine group and motivation (1:06:40) Norepinephrine group and drive (1:10:40) Serotonin group and fibro signs (1:13:30) Start calming first, then stimulating (1:16:30) Where to take the questionnaire (1:19:20) Programs, books, and next steps Work with Dr. Murphree Consultations & Programs – ⁠⁠⁠⁠yourfibrodoctor.com⁠⁠⁠⁠ More About Dr. Rodger Murphree Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠superhealthyhuman.com⁠⁠ Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠@drrodgermurphree⁠⁠ Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠Dr. Rodger Murphree, Functional Medicine Expert⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠Dr. Rodger Murphree⁠⁠⁠⁠ Production, Distribution, and Marketing by Massif & Kroo Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠MassifKroo.com⁠⁠⁠⁠ For inquiries or sponsorships: ⁠⁠⁠⁠hello@massifkroo.com Learn more about your ad choices.

  • The Truth About Heart Disease: Cholesterol Myths, Statins, and the Real Root Cause

    The Truth About Heart Disease: Cholesterol Myths, Statins, and the Real Root Cause
    Nov 6 2025
    Dr. Rodger Murphree—board-certified nutritional specialist, chiropractic physician, and functional medicine expert—exposes what he calls the three biggest medical myths about heart disease: that cholesterol is the primary cause, that low-cholesterol diets prevent heart attacks, and that statin drugs are a safe, catch-all solution. He reframes cardiovascular risk around inflammation, metabolic health, and visceral fat, and explains why decades of cholesterol-centric thinking have not delivered the promised results. Drawing on 34 years in practice and extensive work with complex chronic illness, Dr. Murphree walks through the roles of cholesterol, CoQ10, magnesium, omega-3s, blood sugar, blood pressure, and belly fat in heart health—then outlines dietary, lifestyle, and supplement strategies he believes can reduce risk, improve energy, and support healthier outcomes. This training is educational and encourages patients to understand their labs, their medications, and to work with their doctors on any treatment changes.

    The Root of Fatigue: How Functional Medicine Restores Energy and Reverses Fibromyalgia
    Oct 22 2025
    In this conversation, Dr. Rodger Murphree—functional medicine practitioner, author, and telemedicine pioneer—dives deep into one of the most misunderstood conditions in modern healthcare: chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia. After 34 years in practice and more than two decades helping thousands of patients recover naturally, Dr. Murphree explains how exhaustion, pain, and brain fog are not isolated problems—they’re signals from a body in distress. He breaks down the root causes of fatigue, including poor sleep, adrenal dysfunction, thyroid imbalance, and mitochondrial depletion, and reveals why conventional medicine often misses the mark by focusing on symptom management rather than restoration. Through his experience in functional medicine, he outlines practical steps to restore energy, improve sleep, and reverse chronic fatigue, from magnesium and serotonin support to balancing hormones and reducing inflammation. You’ll also learn how chronic stress depletes essential nutrients, how poor diet fuels inflammation, and how targeted natural therapies can reset your body’s healing rhythm.

    The Foundation of Health: Why Diet and Inflammation Determine Your Future
    Oct 15 2025
    In this conversation, Dr. Rodger Murphree—functional medicine practitioner, author, and telemedicine pioneer—shares the cornerstone principle behind lasting wellness: you can’t overcome chronic illness until you get healthy.
