In this episode with Justin Gardner, you'll explore the science behind hypochlorous acid (HOCl), a compound your white blood cells already make to kill pathogens, repair tissue, and control inflammation. You'll discover why it can be 100x more effective than bleach without driving bacterial resistance, how it outperforms hydrogen peroxide and Neosporin without stinging or damaging healthy tissue, and why formulation and pH determine whether a product actually works. From cuts and acne to post-procedure recovery and eczema, this is one of the most versatile and overlooked tools in skin health.
Justin Gardner is a medical technology entrepreneur with over 20 years of experience bringing regenerative and clinical innovations to market. He licensed and scaled hypochlorous acid-based solutions into the consumer space through Active Skin Repair, a line of medical-grade HOCl formulations cleared by the FDA for use on open skin and verified to EWG's highest standards.
