The Dylan Gemelli Podcast

Welcome to my special 175th EPISODE! This is also my very first special roundtable interview! I could not have had two better than Dr. Josh Axe and Dr. Will Cole as my first guests! These roundtables are a gathering of the most brilliant and impactful minds, coming together to offer deep thoughts and insights of the most discussed aspects of health, wellness and faith! These roundtables will be continuing as special episodes each month to continue to do God's work in bringing as many of us together to make the biggest impact possible!! ENJOY!! For years, I thought that if I ate right, trained hard, stayed disciplined, and took care of my body, I was doing everything I needed to stay healthy. But I've learned that being healthy on the outside doesn't always mean everything is healthy on the inside. My father passed away from a heart attack at just 59 years old. And despite everything I've done to take care of myself, I recently discovered that I have elevated Lp(a) levels and plaque in my arteries. That was a wake-up call. It made me realize just how much can be happening inside our bodies without us ever knowing it. That's why this conversation with Dr. Josh Axe and Dr. Will Cole was so important to me. Dr. Josh Axe and Dr. Will Cole are leading voices in functional medicine, bestselling authors, and longtime advocates for looking beyond symptoms to understand the underlying factors affecting our health. Together, they've written Heal Your Cells, a book exploring how cellular health, inflammation, metabolism, and lifestyle may influence chronic disease and the aging process. We talked about how our organs can age faster than our bodies, the hidden risks of heart disease, and how stress and trauma affect our health. One of the most meaningful parts for me was discussing faith and how true health goes beyond the physical. It's about caring for our minds, bodies, and our relationship with God. And it made me wonder: What if the biggest threats to our health are the things we can't see or feel until it's too late? In This Episode, We Talk About: ■ Cellular health, mitochondria, and chronic disease■ The blood markers that may reveal problems before symptoms appear■ Insulin resistance, inflammation, and metabolic health■ How stress, childhood trauma, and the nervous system affect the body■ The connection between faith, emotional healing, and physical health■ Gut health, exercise, and the importance of personalized nutrition■ Why looking healthy doesn't always mean being healthy Chapters: (00:00) Intro(01:39) Healing at the Cellular Level (04:37) Are Your Organs Aging Faster?

Over the years, I've had the privilege of learning from some incredible doctors, experts, and people from all walks of life. And through my work, my podcast, and the thousands of conversations I've had, I've started noticing something that genuinely concerns me. People don't know who to trust anymore. There's so much conflicting information out there, especially when it comes to health, nutrition, supplements, and the advice we see on social media. Everyone seems to have an answer, everyone claims to be an expert, and too many people are more interested in selling you something than actually helping you. But something I've learned over the years, including through my own mistakes, is that being knowledgeable doesn't mean having all the answers. I've had to learn to admit when I'm wrong, question my own beliefs, and understand that what works for one person might not work for another. That's why I wanted to dedicate this episode to something I believe everyone needs to understand: how to recognize someone you shouldn't trust. In this episode, I talk about: ■ The biggest red flags to look for when deciding who to trust ■ Why some people get angry when you question their advice ■ How influencers and affiliate marketing contribute to health misinformation ■ Why you don't need every supplement or the latest health trend ■ The dangers of fear-based health advice and trying to live a perfectly healthy life ■ The importance of humility, accountability, and thinking for yourself My goal isn't to tell you that I'm always right or that you should only listen to me. It's actually the opposite. I want you to ask more questions, challenge what you're being told, and learn to recognize the difference between people who genuinely want to help you and those who have other intentions.

I've spent years learning about health, longevity, supplements, and ways to optimize the human body. And one thing I've learned is that there's always something new to discover. But there's also a lot of misinformation out there, especially when it comes to supplements and products promising to improve our health. That's why I believe it's so important to understand the science behind what we're putting into our bodies, rather than simply trusting what's written on a label. And that's what made this conversation with my good friend Chris Burres so interesting. Chris is a carbon nanomaterial scientist, entrepreneur, author of Live Longer and Better, and co-founder of MyVitalC. His company has been manufacturing C60, a molecule whose discovery contributed to a Nobel Prize in Chemistry, since 1991. During our conversation, Chris walked me through the history of this molecule, the science behind its potential benefits, and why he believes it could play a role in supporting energy, sleep, recovery, and healthy aging. We also got into something that I think deserves much more attention: how little most people actually know about the supplements they're taking, how those products are manufactured, and whether they contain what the label claims. I hope this conversation encourages you to ask more questions, do your own research, and make better-informed decisions about your health.

I've spent a big part of my life focused on health, fitness, nutrition, and finding ways to get the most out of my body. But one thing I never paid nearly enough attention to was my mouth. I've had around 25 root canals and plenty of dental work over the years. And despite everything I've learned about health, I never really stopped to question how all of that might be affecting the rest of my body. That's one of the reasons I've been looking forward to this conversation for almost eight months. Dr. Dominik Nischwitz, better known as Dr. Dome, is a world-renowned biological dentist, author of It's All in Your Mouth, and founder of BioDentistry 3.0. He's dedicated his career to connecting dentistry with functional medicine, healing, and longevity. What fascinated me most wasn't just his knowledge of dentistry. It was his approach to health and his willingness to question things most people simply accept. We discussed root canals, metal fillings, ceramic implants, and why he believes oral health plays a much bigger role in our overall health than most people realize. But beyond dentistry, we connected over our personal struggles, learning to slow down, taking responsibility for our past, and putting our egos aside to help others. And after everything we discussed, I started looking at my own health, especially my dental health, a little differently. In This Episode, We Talk About: ■ Why Dr. Dome believes oral health is the missing link in longevity ■ How root canals and previous dental work may affect overall health ■ The potential problems with metal fillings and titanium implants ■ The connection between oral health, inflammation, and the gut microbiome ■ Why a healthy-looking smile doesn't always mean a healthy mouth ■ What Dr. Dome would do about my 25 root canals ■ Why he believes conventional dentistry needs to evolve ■ His personal struggles with depression, burnout, and overworking ■ Why taking responsibility is essential for personal growth ■ How unresolved emotional trauma can affect our behavior ■ The importance of sleep, recovery, and knowing when to slow down ■ Why helping others matters more than recognition, money, or status Follow Dr. Dominik here: https://drdomeofficial.com https://www.instagram.com/drdome1/ https://www.youtube.com/@DrDominikNischwitz/featured Chapters: (00:00) Intro (00:49) Timeline (04:45) From Depression to Health (06:30) Traditional Dentistry (12:36) Ceramic vs. Titanium Implants (21:00) The Mouth-Body Connection (27:15) BioDentistry 3.0 (30:00) Dental Surgery and Recovery (35:15) Mind, Body, and Spirit (41:00) Taking Responsibility (43:00) Overcoming Your Past (45:25) Emotional Healing (46:20) Burnout and Overworking (51:25) Finding Your Purpose (54:40) My 25 Root Canals (56:00) The Treatment Process (59:00) Ceramic Implants and Recovery (1:03:00) Healing After Dental Surgery (1:06:00) Oral and Gut Health (1:09:00) Wisdom Teeth and Cavitations (1:12:00) Questioning Conventional Medicine (1:14:00) Health Misinformation (1:16:00) Integrity Over Influence (1:19:19) Final Reflections —-------------------------------------------------------------------------- TODAY'S EPISODE IS SPONSORED BY Timeline Get your FREE Mitopure Gummies Sample Here: timeline.com/gemelli —-------------------------------------------------------------------------- Get KYZATREX: FDA-approved oral testosterone capsule: http://www.getkyzatrex.com/dylangemelli —-------------------------------------------------------------------------- Get the Apollo Neuro for $99 OFF!!

He passed his cardiac stress test with flying colors and received a clean bill of health from his doctors. Shortly afterward, he suffered a heart attack that nearly killed him. Determined to understand what went wrong, he began investigating the hidden risks of heart disease, insulin resistance, and the foods we consume every day. He is Dr. Daniel Trevor, a heart attack survivor, citizen scientist, serial entrepreneur, and author of Unholy Trinity: How Carbs, Sugar & Oils Make Us Fat, Sick & Addicted and How to Escape Their Grip. Drawing on more than 1,200 scientific references, Trevor challenges conventional nutrition advice and explores how the modern food industry, pharmaceutical companies, and healthcare system may influence our health. In this episode, we talk about: ■ How Daniel nearly died from a heart attack despite passing his cardiac stress test ■ The overlooked blood tests that can help identify cardiovascular and metabolic risks ■ Why Daniel questions conventional cholesterol guidelines and statin prescriptions ■ How Daniel developed type 2 diabetes despite being relatively slim ■ The relationship between insulin resistance, blood sugar, and cardiovascular disease ■ Why Daniel believes whole grains and wheat contributed to his health problems ■ How processed foods may encourage addictive eating behaviors ■ Why Daniel challenges the health benefits of oats and other commonly recommended grains ■ The differences between seed oils, olive oil, avocado oil, coconut oil, and animal fats ■ Why Daniel believes grass-fed meat is healthier than conventionally raised meat Chapters: (00:00) Intro (00:44) Timeline (02:04) Meet Daniel Trevor (03:45) Near-Fatal Heart Attack (06:10) The Tests Doctors Miss (09:49) Hidden Cardiovascular Risks (11:41) Cholesterol and Statins (12:40) Profits Over Prevention?
