The Dylan Gemelli Podcast

Most people are chasing better health in the wrong order.

 

They look for the next supplement, peptide, diet, drug, or shortcut... while IGNORING the foundation underneath all of it.

After more than 25 years of studying hormones, peptides, nutrition, health, and wellness, Dylan explains why optimizing your bloodwork or diet may not be enough if you’re constantly stressed, unhappy, sleep-deprived, or stuck in fight-or-flight mode.

 

He explores the connection between faith and health, mindset, nervous system regulation, gratitude, discipline, sleep, nutrition, stress, peptides, and longevity, and explains why the basics still matter more than the latest health hack.

 

This episode isn’t about another shortcut to losing weight or feeling better. It’s about building the foundation that allows everything else to work.

In this episode:

 

■ Why Dylan puts God first in his approach to health

■ The connection between faith, hope, love, and well-being

■ Why gratitude may be one of the most underrated health practices

■ Knowledge vs. Wisdom: Why knowing more isn’t enough

■ Why self-control and discipline affect almost every area of health

■ How chronic stress and fight-or-flight can affect how you feel

■ Ways Dylan uses prayer, breathwork, silence, and alone time to decompress

■ Why chasing health shortcuts usually leads to a longer road

■ Where peptides and supplements actually fit into a healthy lifestyle

■ Why sleep needs to become a non-negotiable

■ How your food choices affect more than your weight

■ Dylan’s framework for aligning your faith, mind, and body

Episode #166: We Need to Talk NOW: Men’s Mental Health Emergency!  Featuring DR. JODY CARRINGTON!  

We’ve never been more connected… and we’ve never been this alone.

Dr. Jody Carrington explains why modern life is pushing our nervous systems to the limit, how unresolved trauma can quietly shape who we become, and why authentic human connection may be one of the most important things we’ve lost.

Dr. Jody is a clinical psychologist, bestselling author, speaker and founder and principal psychologist of Carrington & Company. She holds a Master’s and PhD in Clinical Psychology and spent the first decade of her psychology career working on a locked psychiatric inpatient unit for children. Today, her work focuses on trauma, mental health, human connection, leadership and helping people find their way back to themselves and each other. She is the author of three bestselling books and host of the UNLONELY podcast. 

 

In this episode, she explains:

■ Why we’re becoming more disconnected despite being constantly connected
■ The mental health crisis facing middle-aged men
■ Why men need better language for their emotions
■ How constant notifications and stimulation keep the nervous system on high alert
■ Why you can’t address what you refuse to acknowledge
■ How trauma can remain stored in the body long after the event is over
■ How unresolved experiences can affect relationships decades later
■ Why naming emotions can help us regulate them
■ Why success, money and possessions often fail to create fulfillment
■ The difference between knowing your worth and feeding your ego
■ Why giving, connection and feeling seen can create deeper fulfillment
■ How to find your way back to yourself in an increasingly disconnected world

Most people don’t need MORE supplements. They need to stop taking the WRONG ones.

 

Lucas Aoun breaks down what actually separates an effective supplement from clever marketing, why some of the most popular ingredients may be doing more harm than good, and how he approaches testosterone, cardiovascular health, nutrition and supplementation without blindly following health trends.

 

Lucas is a qualified naturopath, biohacker, supplement formulator and founder of Boost Your Biology and INB4 Supplements. He holds a Bachelor of Health Science in Naturopathy and has built his work around men’s health, neurochemistry, supplementation and human performance. He is also a TEDx speaker and host of the Boost Your Biology podcast, where he translates emerging health research into practical strategies for performance and longevity.

 

In this episode, he explains:

■ Why most testosterone boosters are poorly formulated and underdosed
■ Lucas’ top supplements for long-term health and performance
■ Why taurine is one of his staple longevity supplements
■ Lactoferrin for immunity, gut health and iron regulation
■ Why vitamin D remains one of the fundamentals
■ High-dose melatonin, its benefits and why it can leave you feeling terrible
■ Why most people should stay away from ashwagandha
■ Supplements to support cardiovascular health
■ What centenarians in China can teach us about longevity
■ Why extremely low-fat diets can negatively affect hormones and overall health
■ The debate around canola oil and seed oils
■ Why supplement quality and third-party testing matter
■ How proprietary blends can hide what you’re actually taking

Episode #163: The #1 Trait of Unhealthy People! (this makes you sick) 

 

DYLAN DOES NOT HOLD BACK!  

 

You can eat well, train consistently, sleep properly and have perfect bloodwork and still be UNHEALTHY.

Because some of the most damaging things we carry have nothing to do with food, exercise or supplements.

Negativity. Resentment. Anger. Constant comparison. Refusing to take accountability. Spending your time arguing with strangers, obsessing over other people’s opinions and looking for another reason to be upset.

In this episode, Dylan breaks down the characteristics he believes are shared by some of the unhealthiest people, and why improving your physical health may be impossible without first addressing what is happening mentally and spiritually.

Dylan Gemelli is the host of The Dylan Gemelli Podcast, where he explores health, longevity, human performance, mindset and faith through conversations with leading doctors, researchers and experts, as well as his own experiences and perspectives. His approach to health goes beyond biomarkers and physical appearance, focusing on what he describes as the connection between Mind, Body and God.

 

In this episode you will find out:

◼ Why eating well and exercising may not be enough to make someone truly healthy

◼ How your thoughts and emotional state can influence the way you take care of your body

◼ Why constantly consuming negative news may be affecting you more than you realize

◼ The relationship between accountability, personal growth and freedom

◼ Why selflessness can improve your happiness and overall well-being

◼ How worrying about other people’s opinions can control your life

◼ How identity-driven arguments around politics and diet create unnecessary division

◼ Why status and material things may not bring real fulfillment

◼ The role gratitude, humility, compassion and forgiveness play in a healthy life

◼ Why connecting with God can become the foundation for true health

◼ What Mind, Body and God means
