  • Why You’re Aging Faster Than You Think & How to Slow It
    I’ve been looking forward to sharing this conversation with you because it’s one I’m truly passionate about. Today, we’re diving into the DunedinPACE epigenetic clock with one of its creators, the brilliant Dan Belsky. It’s a tool I use regularly with my patients, and one that’s transforming how we approach aging and interventions. While this show is a bit more technical than usual, the science is fascinating, and the real-world applications are incredibly valuable. This isn’t just about theory—it’s about practical insights that can change how we measure aging and track the effectiveness of the treatments we offer. Stick with us, and you’ll walk away with actionable knowledge that can make a difference in your practice. ~DrKF Check out the show notes at https://www.drkarafitzgerald.com/fxmed-podcast/ for the full list of links and resources.

  • What New Research Says About Cartilage Regeneration and Joint Longevity
    What if a human trial of over 1200 patients showed improved mobility and reduced pain in osteoarthritis (OA) patients using a natural combination of boswellia and celery seed extract? What if a second follow-up randomized, placebo-controlled human trial found that within 90 days, this same combination increased OA patients' ability to perform a walk test by over 50%, reduced markers of cartilage degeneration by half and increased markers of cartilage regeneration by half. This is what the research team at Calroy Health Sciences have discovered, putting a tremendous amount of work and financing into studying the effects of the uniquely-developed Cartigenix-HP. Not only that, increased joint space at the end of the trial was clearly visible via radiography, and 90% of the intervention group did not need any "rescue" pharmaceutical medication at the end of the 90 day period (compared with only 20% of the placebo group) and this effect was sustained beyond the end of the trial. I have to say, I am impressed and excited about the potential for this new product to help my patients and I am thinking about other applications like OA prevention and osteoporosis!

  • The Truth About Chronic Illness: How to Reset Your Nervous System & Slow Aging
    We’ve all had patients struggling with chronic conditions like long COVID, fibromyalgia, Lyme disease, and chronic fatigue. Despite all the tools in our functional medicine toolkit, there’s still something missing. How can we truly help them? I’m excited to have Ashok Gupta back on the New Frontiers podcast to offer a new take on healing from chronic illness. He explains that many chronic diseases stem from a malfunction in the brain's threat detection system, where the body overreacts to perceived threats, triggering immune, nervous system, or mood responses, creating a vicious cycle. Ashok shares how retraining the brain and calming the nervous system can reset the body’s response to chronic stress and presents the growing body of research supporting the Gupta Program, including new subjective measurements like CRP showing its impact. What excites me most is the potential for this approach to help some of my toughest-to-treat patients. With more studies emerging, I’m increasingly hopeful this could be a game-changer. It’s a conversation you won’t want to miss! ~DrKF Check out the show notes at https://tinyurl.com/2t55s3y3 for the full list of links and resources.

  • Hidden Mitochondria Problems Are Accelerating Your Age & Draining Your Health
    What if the key to reversing chronic disease, slowing cognitive decline, and boosting energy lies in the tiny powerhouses inside your cells—and we’ve finally found a way to protect them? We know mitochondria power our cells, but did you know they also create oxidative stress as they generate energy? Protecting mitochondrial health is critical—but most antioxidants can't reach inside the mitochondria where protection is needed most—until now. MitoQ, a scientifically advanced, mitochondria-targeted antioxidant developed by visionary researchers in New Zealand penetrates mitochondria up to 90%, offering protection where it's needed most. In this episode with Dr. Siobhan Mitchell, we dive into how MitoQ is transforming the way we tackle chronic disease, inflammation, and cognitive decline. From improving heart health to supporting brain function, MitoQ is changing the game. It’s something I’m using personally and recommending to most of my patients. Listen in to discover how this powerful tool can help you support your patients at the cellular level—before symptoms even appear. ~DrKF Check out the show notes at https://tinyurl.com/2t55s3y3 for the full list of links and resources.

  • p-Tau 217: The Breakthrough Biomarker Revolutionizing Early Alzheimer’s Detection
    Join me for a fascinating conversation around an exciting breakthrough in dementia detection that’s offering real hope for early intervention. Dr. Hans Frykman, Chief Scientific Officer at Neurocode Laboratories, is here to share groundbreaking insights into cutting-edge biomarkers that can identify pathology associated with Alzheimer's disease before symptoms even appear. What’s even more fascinating is how these same tools are revealing neuroinflammation caused by infections, including COVID, Lyme disease, and mold exposure—issues that are incredibly relevant in functional medicine today. The assays Dr. Frykman and his team have developed, and continue to research, are transforming the way we think about diagnosing and addressing neurodegeneration. We’re talking about a potential game-changer that allows us to intervene earlier, reverse damage, and ultimately improve the trajectory of these conditions. This is an extraordinary time in science and medicine, and the work we’re discussing today is at the forefront of it all. Don’t miss out on how this could reshape your practice. ~DrKF Check out the show notes at https://tinyurl.com/2t55s3y3 for the full list of links and resources.
