Clinical Insights from the Physicians Defining Health Optimization Medicine
In this episode of the Smarter Not Harder Podcast, renowned health and performance educator Thomas DeLauer joins Dr. Scott Sherr to unpack the often-overlooked science of parasympathetic activation. From breathwork to posture, lactate to mindset, they reveal why top-tier athletes downshift between sets — and how everyday gym-goers can unlock greater performance, recovery, and longevity with a smarter nervous system approach.
In this episode of the Smarter Not Harder Podcast, Boomer Anderson sits down with Dr. Scott Sherr, Dr. Ted Achacoso, Jodi Duval, and Dr. Allen Bookatz to explore how syncing your biology with circadian rhythms may be more powerful than any 3-day fast. From defining ultradian and infradian rhythms to tackling jet lag, hormone timing, and shift work, the team shares clinical stories and practical tactics you can use to reset your internal clock and optimize recovery, metabolism, and mood.
In this episode of the Smarter Not Harder Podcast, we dive into the future of rehabilitation, human performance, and neurology with host Boomer Anderson and Garrett Salpeter, founder and CEO of NeuFit. A physicist-turned-health innovator, Garrett reveals how the body's electrical system holds the key to faster healing, muscle reactivation, pain resolution, and even cognitive performance. Discover how his patented direct current device, the Neubie®, is reshaping what’s possible in recovery.
In this episode of the Smarter Not Harder Podcast, Dr. Navaz Habib joins Dr. Scott Sherr to explain why the vagus nerve controls far more than just your “rest and digest” functions. From heart rate variability to gut health to trauma, they break down how to assess and improve vagal tone to unlock your body’s ability to heal, regulate, and optimize.
In this episode & live round-table of the Smarter Not Harder Podcast, Boomer Anderson sits down with Dr. Scott Sherr, Dr. Ted Achacoso, Dr. Jup Kuipers, and Dr. Allen Bookatz to unpack the shift from “sick-care” to genuine health-care. Drawing on stories from primary care, the ER, and longevity practice, they explain how the Health Optimization Medicine (HOMe) model uses metabolomics, gut testing, and evolutionary biology to keep you thriving — long before disease strikes.
In this episode of the Smarter Not Harder Podcast, Jodi Duval leads a powerful conversation with Dr. Ted Achacoso, Dr. Scott Sherr, and Dr. Allen Bookatz about burnout in clinical practice — and how to actually prevent it. From saying no to draining patients to finding joy in curiosity and community, the team shares practical tools for sustaining a long, fulfilling career in medicine.
In this episode of the Smarter Not Harder Podcast, Dr. Scott Sherr sits down with renegade nurse and educator Karen DiMarco to explore how psychosocial stress, identity, and hypervigilance can create — or dissolve — chronic illness. Karen shares her personal health journey, the groundbreaking chronic fatigue study she co-led, and why our thoughts may be the most overlooked variable in healing.
In this episode of the Smarter Not Harder Podcast, the Troscriptions and HOMeHOPe faculty get personal. Dr. Scott Sherr, Dr. Ted Achacoso, and Jodi Duval go behind the curtain on what they’re actually taking, testing, and tossing when it comes to supplements. From methylene blue pessaries to kratom gummies, designer peptides to custom troches — this roundtable reveals how experienced clinicians approach their own protocols, and the often messy process of self-experimentation.
In this episode of the Smarter Not Harder Podcast, Dr. Abid Husain joins Dr. Scott Sherr for a masterclass on cardiovascular health — from cholesterol myths to mitochondrial truth. They explore what truly drives inflammation, plaque formation, and cardiovascular risk, while dismantling the outdated “cholesterol = heart disease” narrative.
In this episode of the Smarter Not Harder Podcast, we dive into the outrageous, unexpected, and sometimes uncomfortable experiments our hosts have tried in the name of health optimization. From gallbladder flushes and vitamin D megadosing to powerlifting with a colonic and hiking mountains while microdosing, this episode is full of real (and ridiculous) stories. Boomer Anderson, Dr. Scott Sherr, Dr. Ted Achacoso, Jodi Duval, and Dr. Allen Bookatz share the protocols they’ve tested so you don’t have to — and what they actually learned from pushing the limits.
In this episode of the Smarter Not Harder Podcast, Dr. Scott Sherr takes us on a solo deep dive into the myths, history, physiology, and media controversies surrounding methylene blue. From Blue Brains headlines to Huberman posts and clinical dosing strategies, Scott sets the record straight and unpacks why this molecule has become a lightning rod in health optimization conversations.
In this episode of the Smarter Not Harder Podcast, Bob Troia explores what it means to truly understand yourself through data. With decades of experience in both tech and personal science, Bob shares his journey from building early web innovations to becoming a leader in the quantified self and biohacking space. As the co-founder of Awesome Labs and SuppTrack, Bob discusses how his personal experiments with sleep, glucose, HRV, and nootropics like methylene blue have inspired tools that help others optimize their lives.
