This week, Tee sits down with Lou Banas, a certified laser therapist and founder of Pain Therapy USA, to explore photobiomodulation (PBM), also known as red light therapy. This non-invasive approach uses specific wavelengths of red and near-infrared light to support the body's natural healing processes by reducing inflammation, relieving pain, and promoting tissue repair. Lou shares his journey into this field and explains why proper training and certification are critical as PBM becomes more widely available in both clinical and at-home settings.

In the conversation, Lou breaks down the science behind PBM, including how light interacts with the body at a cellular level. He explains the role of mitochondrial function, particularly cytochrome c oxidase, in increasing ATP production, as well as how nitric oxide may improve circulation and reduce inflammation. He also discusses the differences between medical-grade laser devices and consumer LED products, noting how power and precision can influence results across a variety of conditions.

Lou also shares clinical observations from over two decades of use, highlighting applications ranging from joint pain and sciatica to brain-related conditions such as traumatic brain injury, PTSD, and dementia. Referencing insights from Richard M. Restak, author of The Brain: The Last Frontier, the episode explores how PBM may play a role in advancing brain health and recovery. As research continues to evolve, this therapy shows growing promise as a tool for both physical healing and neurological support.

This week, Tee sits down with Mario Brainović, CEO and co-founder of Analemma Water, a company focused on transforming ordinary water into "structured water" — a more ordered form believed to function like a liquid crystal with enhanced energy-carrying properties. Analemma's technology uses a crystal-filled device to influence water at the molecular level, producing stable, long-lasting changes. Mario's mission is to make this approach accessible through practical, easy-to-use products, including handheld wands, pitcher inserts, and whole-home systems.

In this conversation, Mario shares insights from his research and experimentation. He discusses QEEG testing with identical twins that suggested rapid brainwave synchronization after consuming Analemma water, as well as findings indicating increased cellular ATP and mitochondrial activity in healthy individuals. Additional observations include improvements in microbiome balance, particularly reductions in dysbiosis, along with experiments involving plant growth, soil health, and water exposed to EMF and 5G environments.

The episode also covers practical applications for everyday use, including an overview of Analemma's product lineup, such as the handheld wand, pitcher insert, garden hose attachment, and whole-house system. Mario provides guidance on usage, considerations for pets, and best practices for heating or boiling structured water. Listeners will also find information on where to learn more, along with access to a special discount code.

This week, Tee welcomes Dr. Paul Dabney, NMD, MPH, M.Ed., a naturopathic physician and CEO of The Center for Natural Health and Optimal Wellness, for a conversation on rethinking diabetes care through prevention and integrative medicine. With over 20 years of experience in clinical research, medical writing, and public health, his work has included contributions to The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, The Food and Drug Administration, Michigan State University School of Veterinary Medicine, and The U.S. Army Medical Corps, along with teaching roles in naturopathic education.

In this episode, Dr. Paul shares how his path into naturopathic medicine was shaped by both scientific training and personal heritage. Drawing from his background in microbiology, antimicrobial resistance, and public health, along with his mother's Cherokee-based healing traditions, he offers a perspective that bridges conventional and holistic care.

Throughout the conversation, Dr. Paul emphasizes that while medications can be helpful, they may also contribute to nutrient depletion or unintended side effects in some cases. He highlights the importance of key nutrients such as zinc, vitamin D, magnesium, and vitamin B6, along with foundational lifestyle factors like sleep, stress management, cortisol balance, and access to quality food. He also shares practical strategies to support blood sugar stability, including simple combinations like pairing fruit with proteins and healthy fats.

This episode reinforces that lasting health comes from consistent, informed choices. If you are looking to take a more proactive approach to your health, this conversation offers both clarity and actionable steps.
