In this episode my guest is Dr. Kevin J. Tracey and we are discussing one of the most fascinating and revolutionary discoveries in modern medicine — the link between the vagus nerve, the inflammatory reflex, and the body’s innate ability to heal.
For years, inflammation has been seen as a silent driver behind chronic illness — from autoimmune disease and depression to heart disease and neurodegeneration. But what if the body already has a built-in mechanism to control it?
Dr. Tracey is the president and CEO of the Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research at Northwell Health, a pioneer of vagus nerve research and author of The Great Nerve. A leader in the scientific fields of inflammation and neuroscience, his lab studies vagus nerve stimulation and bioelectronic medicine. His contributions include first identifying the therapeutic action of monoclonal anti-TNF antibodies and discovering the specific reflex control of immunity by the nervous system, called the “inflammatory reflex.” These discoveries launched the new scientific field called bioelectronic medicine, which investigates the therapeutic applications of vagus nerve stimulation to cure disease.
Dr. Tracey, a neurosurgeon, pursued studies of inflammation after the mysterious death of a toddler from sepsis who was in his care. His lab has since revealed molecular mechanisms of inflammation and identified the use of vagus nerve stimulation to treat it. An inventor on more than 120 U.S. patents and the author of more than 450 scientific publications, he is among the most highly cited scientists in the world. He co-founded the Global Sepsis Alliance, is the author of Fatal Sequence (Dana Press) and is a national and international lecturer.

Understanding EMFs: Risks, Research, and Practical Protection With Arthur Menard
In this episode we discuss what EMFs are, how they may affect the body, and most importantly, what we can do to protect ourselves.
Our guest is Arthur Menard. Arthur is a Forbes 30 Under 30 entrepreneur, TEDx speaker, as well as the founder of HAVN (havnwear.com), the world’s first EMF-blocking apparel designed for daily wear. Trusted by doctors, elite athletes, and the U.S. Air Force, HAVN’s patented WaveStopper™ fabric blocks 99.7% of radiation from everyday tech, helping reduce risks tied to fertility, hormones, and cognitive health. Since its launch, HAVN has sold over 250,000 products to more than 70,000 customers worldwide. Arthur holds an MS in Biology & Engineering from AgroParisTech and an MBA from HEC Paris. His mission is to help people live longer, feel better, and thrive in a connected world.
Learning Point:
• Why EMFs might be the biggest blind spot in longevity science
• How constant tech exposure could be undermining healthspan goals
• What people can actually do to shield themselves without going off-grid
