What if the reason you're tired, foggy, and burned out has nothing to do with stress or sleep?
Most high-performing men assume their fatigue, brain fog, and inflammation come from doing too much. But there's another conversation happening in functional medicine that most doctors miss completely. Dr. Torrie Thompson is the founder of Meraki Wellness Center in Austin and specializes in mold, heavy metals, environmental toxins, and Lyme disease. She's spent over a decade helping people figure out what's actually wrong when their labs look "normal" but they feel terrible.
This one hits close to home for Jon. He's been dealing with Lyme, Babesia, and chronic inflammation for the better part of a decade. His CRP (a key inflammation marker) has averaged 90 for the last 10 years, with his most recent test coming in at 127. Tori told him on the podcast it's the highest she's ever seen, by a lot. If you've ever wondered why you feel off and your doctor keeps telling you everything looks fine, this conversation is for you.
In This Interview:
→ Why mold is the most common hidden driver of chronic fatigue and brain fog in men today
→ The three foods that hold the most mycotoxins (and why you can't see or smell them)
→ How to actually test your body and your home for mold (and the testing companies to avoid) → The difference between binders that help and binders that hurt
→ Why standard doctors miss Lyme disease and what to do if you suspect you have it
→ The order of operations: why you have to clear mold and metals before treating Lyme
→ Why chelation can wreck your health and what to do instead
→ How to spot misaligned incentives when a doctor pushes expensive weekly IV drips
→ The cheapest, most overlooked tools for healing (PEMF, grounding, breathwork, sleep)
→ Why your toxic bucket size determines how sick you get and how fast you recover
This Conversation Is For You If:
→ You're exhausted, foggy, or inflamed and your bloodwork keeps coming back "normal"
→ You've been to multiple doctors and nobody can tell you what's wrong
→ You suspect mold in your home or your body and don't know where to start
→ You've been bitten by a tick at some point and never felt the same since
→ You're a business owner whose energy is the engine and you need it back online
