Can probiotics, prebiotics, sea moss, and fermented foods really improve your gut health? And what does the science actually say about your gut microbiome?

On this episode of Health vs. Hype from the American Medical Association, host Trace Dominguez explores the science behind gut health trends with Danielle Brown, holistic nutritionist and New York Times bestselling cookbook author behind Healthy Girl Kitchen, and Dr. Mohamed Mokadem, gastroenterologist and professor of medicine at the University of Iowa.

From sea moss gel and probiotic supplements to postbiotics, prebiotics, fermented foods, and so-called “leaky gut,” we examine which wellness claims have scientific support and where the evidence is still developing. Dr. Mokadem explains what the gut microbiome does, how diet and antibiotics can affect it, and what researchers know about the gut-brain connection and its relationship to digestion, stress, and mental health.

We also explore whether everyone needs a probiotic, how prebiotics differ from probiotics, what postbiotics actually are, and why there’s no single ideal microbiome for everyone. Plus, Danielle shares her personal journey with plant-based eating and gut health, while Dr. Mokadem explains why restrictive elimination diets and expensive supplements may not be the answer for everyone. Learn what the evidence supports, which warning signs deserve medical attention, and how a varied, balanced diet can help support digestive health.

Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is everywhere right now, but what does the science actually say about HRT for menopause and perimenopause? In this episode of Health vs. Hype, Trace Dominguez separates the evidence from the hype around one of the most debated topics in women’s health.

Dr. Elizabeth Lapeyre, a board-certified OB-GYN and menopause specialist, explains what happens to estrogen and progesterone during perimenopause and menopause, which symptoms hormone therapy can help, and how the risks and benefits of HRT have changed as the science has evolved. We look at the history of the Women’s Health Initiative study, why its findings had such a lasting impact on how people viewed HRT, and why details like the type of hormone, how it’s delivered, when treatment begins, and a person’s health history matter.

Plus, Pilar Guzman of Oprah Daily and CeCe Moreno of Silver Sister Says share their perspectives on why menopause is finally getting more attention, and why there’s still a lot we don’t know.

HRT isn't simply all good or all bad. So what does the evidence really tell us?

GLP-1s have become one of the biggest stories in health and weight loss. But beyond the headlines and social-media hype, what do we actually know?

Trace Dominguez breaks down how GLP-1 medications work with obesity medicine specialist Dr. Sean Hashmi, while online influencers Todd Masterson and Ashley Gibson share their experiences, including changes in appetite, weight, and what some people call “food noise.”

Then we go beyond weight loss. Researchers are investigating GLP-1s for sleep apnea, osteoarthritis, addiction, and other conditions. Some of the findings are intriguing. Others are preliminary. And some claims circulating online don't have enough evidence behind them yet.

We also get into GLP-1 side effects, compounded medications, long-term treatment, weight regain, and the next generation of drugs.

Because when it comes to GLP-1s, the science is moving quickly. The challenge is knowing the difference between what we know and what we hope might be true.

Maybe you've seen someone wearing a glowing red LED mask on social media. Or an ad promising smoother skin, thicker hair, less pain, and faster recovery – all from a few minutes under a red light. But how much of that is backed by science?

In this episode of Health vs. Hype, Trace Dominguez shines a light on one of the internet's biggest wellness trends: red light therapy. Joined by dermatologist Dr. Margareta Masse, he explores how photobiomodulation works, why different wavelengths matter, and which claims have real evidence behind them. Along the way, influencer Sly Huncho, skincare creator Rosa Hoffman, and melanoma survivor Mika Stambaugh share their personal experiences using red light therapy for everything from acne and wrinkles to wound healing and inflammation.

So, can red light therapy actually boost collagen? Does it help acne, scars, or hair loss? And are those expensive at-home masks worth the money? Tune in as we separate science from social media and find out whether red light therapy is all health... or just hype.

Cold plunges. Ice baths. Saunas. Contrast therapy has taken over social media, with influencers and athletes claiming that alternating between hot and cold can speed muscle recovery, reduce inflammation, improve circulation, boost mental health, and even make you more resilient. But does the science actually support those claims? In this episode of Health vs. Hype, host Trace Dominguez explores what happens inside your body when you switch between heat and cold, why a cold plunge can leave you feeling energized and euphoric, and whether contrast therapy delivers more than a temporary boost. Joined by sports medicine physician Dr. Chelsea Evans, Trace separates the evidence from the hype, explaining what research shows about pain relief, athletic recovery, circulation, mood, and long-term health benefits—and who should think twice before taking the plunge.

Can detox teas, juice cleanses, and parasite cleanses actually flush toxins out of your body or is the wellness industry overselling the science?

In this episode of Health vs Hype, Trace sits down with gastroenterologist Dr. David Purow to unpack one of the biggest wellness trends online: detoxing. Together, they break down what toxins really are, how the body naturally detoxifies itself, and why many popular detox products may be unnecessary or even harmful.

The episode explores social media claims surrounding heavy metals, microplastics, “detox pathways,” parasite cleanses, brain fog, bloating, inflammation, and fatigue. You’ll hear insights from wellness creator Mina Adams alongside evidence-based medical perspectives on whether detox regimens actually work. You’ll also hear from Steve Lutsk, an online fitness coach and detox doubter. 

Dr. Purow explains how the liver, kidneys, lungs, skin, and even the brain already have built-in systems designed to remove waste and harmful substances. He also discusses why healthy habits like sleep, hydration, nutrition, movement, and exercise support the body far more effectively than trendy and expensive detox products or quick-fix cleanses.

The conversation also tackles:
Juice cleanses and detox teas
Parasite cleanse trends on TikTok and Instagram
Heavy metals and microplastic fears
“Resetting” your gut or digestive system
The psychology of wellness quick fixes

If you’ve ever wondered whether detoxes are science-backed, this episode separates health facts from wellness hype.

VO2 Max is everywhere, from fitness trackers and smartwatches to social media and even dating profiles. But what does this number actuallymean for your health?

In this episode of Health vs. Hype, we break down the science behind VO2 Max (maximal oxygen consumption) and whether it truly deserves its status as the ultimate fitness and longevity metric.

With insights from cardiologist Dr. Robert Maynard and real-world experiences from elite athletes and everyday runners, we explore:
What VO2 max measures, and how it reflects cardiovascular, respiratory, and muscular health
Whether smartwatch VO2 Max estimates are accurate (and how they compare to lab testing)
How VO2 Max relates to longevity, heart disease risk, and overall fitness
Why this single number doesn’t tell the whole story about your health or performance
When VO2 Max testing is useful and when it might be unnecessary (or even overkill)

You’ll hear firsthand what it’s like to take a clinical VO2 Max test, why the metric has gone viral, and how to use it without getting obsessed with the number.

Bottom line: VO2 Max is one of the most powerful predictors of health but it’s not the only one that matters.

If you’ve ever wondered whether your fitness tracker’s VO2 Max score is meaningful, or just hype, this episode has your answer.

Does your sleep tracker actually improve sleep or increase anxiety?
Is mouth tape safe or potentially dangerous?
How much sleep do you really need for optimal health?
What is heart rate variability (HRV), and does it matter?

You’ll also learn why “trying harder” to sleep can backfire, how social media influences health behaviors, and which simple, evidence-based strategies can help you fall asleep faster and wake up feeling restored.

If you’ve ever struggled with insomnia, experimented with sleep optimization, or wondered whether viral wellness trends are worth it, this episode gets to the bottom of it all.
