I'm Dr. Nirvani Umadat, and after more than a decade in conventional dentistry, I started questioning everything I thought I knew about health. One day, a patient who did everything “right”—brushed and flossed religiously, avoided sugar, drank liters of water, and never missed a checkup—looked at me and asked: “Why do I still get cavities?” That question shook me. It wasn’t just difficult to answer—it was a wake-up call. It pushed me to dig deeper, to challenge the mainstream narratives, and to uncover the real connections between oral health, whole-body wellness, and even the energetic and spiritual aspects of healing. That’s why I created this podcast—to bridge the gap between peer-reviewed science and holistic wisdom so you can take charge of your health in a whole new way. From practical, science-backed strategies to exploring the deeper mind-body connection, I’m here to help you unlock the healthiest, most vibrant, and most superhuman version of yourself. Join me on this journey to Becoming Superhuman—because true health isn’t just about what’s happening in your mouth; it’s about what’s happening in your entire being.

What if the science we’ve been taught was never meant to explain life at all?

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Steven A. Young, a nuclear physicist turned audio alchemist. After nearly two decades in quantum physics, he realized the theories he’d devoted his life to didn’t hold up in the real world. That shift led him into alchemy, music, and eventually his book A Fool’s Wisdom: Science Conspiracies and The Secret Art of Alchemy.

We get into how he walked away from the conventional scientific system, what he uncovered about the stories behind quantum theory, and why merging science with spirit changed not only his perspective but also the way he creates music.

You’ll Learn:

The reason Steve walked away from two decades in quantum physics
What happens when scientific theories never show up in real life
The surprising link between ancient alchemy and modern creativity
Why the word “quantum” gets misused as a catchall for the mystical
The damage of removing soul and spirit from science
What it feels like to make music through the lens of alchemy
How everyday acts like cooking and cleaning are forms of alchemy
The shift Steve experienced moving his music from 440 Hz to 432 Hz
The role of the “fool” archetype in finding wisdom and truth
