By Chris D. Meletis, ND – Recent investigations have identified microplastic particles in human blood, placental tissue, lung tissue, brain, liver, kidney, breast milk, and atherosclerotic plaque. While these findings confirm that human exposure occurs and that at least some particles can enter biological systems, the clinical implications remain an active area of investigation.
By Chris D. Meletis, ND – Conventional bioavailability technology asks how to carry a difficult molecule through the gut. Quantum Ayurveda asks whether the molecule’s own energetic state can be shifted before it gets there.
By Dr. Chris Meletis – The omega-3 fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) have long been known to provide significant health benefits. More recently, a molecular mechanism has emerged that explains how they support a healthy inflammatory response.
By Chris D. Meletis, ND – Long COVID can be a debilitating condition that significantly interferes with the quality of life and well-being of patients. In addition to chiropractic adjustments, implementing a broad approach that includes NAD+ precursors such as nicotinamide riboside, probiotics, immune support, and mild to moderate exercise can yield excellent results.
By Chris D. Meletis, ND – Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is a pivotal coenzyme for cellular metabolism, mitochondrial function, and genomic stability. This article examines the mechanisms, comparative efficacy, clinical and preclinical research, and safety profiles of NR and NMN based on recent peer-reviewed evidence and regulatory findings.
By Chris D. Meletis, ND – This article provides a brief explanation of alternative therapies for pain relief, aiming to improve patients’ quality of life, and help each patient find the best individualized plan.
By Dr. Chris Meletis – Mitochondrial dysfunction is implicated in the pathogenesis of long COVID, which causes an array of symptoms that interfere with patients’ activities of daily life. Addressing the mitochondrial dysfunction can lead to enhanced energy, cognitive function, and vitality in patients suffering from this debilitating condition.
Acetaminophen overdose is the most common cause of acute liver injury in the US. Ideally, we could reduce the dosages to a point less likely to cause liver damage while still inhibiting pain, and CBD may be the answer.
The relationship between the muscles and bones is more than just mechanical, and emerging evidence suggests that bone and muscle act as secretory endocrine organs that affect each other’s function. Blocking myostatin can lead to bone formation by increasing the activity of osteoblasts and suppressing osteoclasts.
Low bone density, which causes weakened bone tissue, bone structure, and strength, and increases the risk of fracture, is one of the greatest threats to mobility during aging.
Reduced skeletal muscle mass and function in adults is associated with causes such as sedentary habits, chronic disease, and frailty, and the resulting muscle loss in turn contributes to these same conditions. Muscle loss is inevitable with age, and a number of strategies can be used to prevent or reverse muscle atrophy in these individuals.
MMM Theory proposes a new understanding of diseases as a response to environmental microcontaminants, challenging traditional medical paradigms. The book delves into the Microbial Mucosal Milieu’s role in regulating the body’s functions and its impact on health.
Research shows that multivitamins can compensate for dietary deficiencies and offer health benefits. TruGen3’s multivitamin includes elderberry, pomegranate, and blueberry extracts for added health support.
Xenoestrogens, like dioxins and phthalates, disrupt male health by mimicking estrogen, impacting fertility, testosterone levels, and causing various health issues.
A healthy human heart pumps on average 103,680 times a day, and keeps blood flowing to the trillions of cells that comprise the human frame, via approximately 60,000 miles of blood vessels. Yet, the heart is more than a mechanical wonder – its complexity and intricacies with other organs are highly integrated. A healthy gastrointestinal tract is essential to sustain the energetic demand of the heart, and a healthy mind is critical as well.
It has proven to be difficult, if not impossible, to proceed to full-scale randomized controlled trials (RCTs) for most of the natural methods that cannot be patented or otherwise monopolized.
By addressing food sensitivities through targeted testing and personalized dietary interventions, individuals can take a significant step toward reducing inflammation, improving gut health, and enhancing overall well-being.
As the producer of The Moss Report, the year leading up to the Covid-19 pandemic was filled with anticipation and excitement. We had invested years of hard work and significant resources into two major projects: our feature film, Immunotherapy: The Battle Within, and...

Menopause Care in the Longevity Era Longevity medicine is everywhere right now. Supplements, protocols, influencer clinics, patients walking in with questions about interventions their doctors have never heard of. What's missing from most of it is the evidence. The Midlife Women's Health Summit is three days on what the research actually says about menopause care when you add a longevity lens. What works, what doesn't, what's being oversold, and what to tell the patient sitting in front of you. Co-chaired by Lisa Larkin, MD, FACP, MSCP, IF, Jen Gunter, MD, FRCS(C), FACOG, DABPM, ABPMR, and Lauren Streicher, MD, FACOG, MSCP; three of the clearest voices in women's health on separating data from marketing.
