    94. Your Bones Are Alive: Natural Bone Health with Debi Robinson
    Oct 18 2026
    Maybe you just got your DEXA results back and the word osteopenia is still sitting heavy on your chest. Maybe your doctor handed you a prescription for a bisphosphonate, and your dentist said, hold on, let’s talk about that first. Now you’re caught in the middle, and nobody has explained why your bones are changing in the first place. So I finally brought on the bone health expert I’ve been promising you for years.What You’ll Learn in This Episode:Why bone loss isn’t simply a “degenerative disease of aging,” and why Debi says there are 150-plus root causes behind it.How the DEXA scan became the gold standard in the 1990s, why women’s smaller bones can push them into the osteoporosis category more often, and why Debi says the scan was never meant to be the single reason for a medication recommendation.How estrogen and testosterone help protect bone, why the first five to seven years after menopause can bring up to a 20% loss in bone density, and how lead stored in bone over a lifetime can be released as bone breaks down.Why stronger muscles build stronger bones, and how jaw alignment, tongue posture, and a European approach called dentosophy connect your mouth to your posture and your whole frame.Why your bones are built from mouth to gut, and how chewing well, eating in a calm state, and actually absorbing your nutrients shape what reaches your skeleton.About Debi Robinson:Debi Robinson is a Yoga Therapist, Functional Bone Health Expert, and host of the Stronger Bones Lifestyle podcast. After her own hip replacement at 51, and years of working with thousands of bodies, she made it her mission to change the way we diagnose, manage, and support bone health. Her message is one every woman needs to hear: your bones are living tissue, and your diagnosis does not define your future.Key Insights:So here’s the thing. Your bones are alive until your very last breath. They’re building and dissolving all day, every day, and your lifestyle is flipping those switches one way or the other. Debi walks us through the root factors she sees again and again, things like inflammation, acidity, toxicity, hormone shifts, mineral imbalance, and stress. That means you have far more influence than you’ve been told.One thing I loved about this conversation is how naturally it came back to the mouth. Debi shares that receding gums can be one sign of changing bone density, and in my practice, we can often see changes in the jawbone on regular X-rays and especially on a 3D scan. We also talk about why bisphosphonates are such a concern in dentistry, because they’ve been associated with osteonecrosis of the jaw, and why a scan that looks denser doesn’t always tell the whole story about bone quality.And then we zoom out. Alignment matters, in the jaw, in the hips, in the knees. Chewing matters. Breathing through your nose matters. And community matters too. As Debi put it, the most subtle form of pain is loneliness, and having support on this journey can make all the difference.Resources Mentioned:Debi Robinson’s website, programs, and live workshops: https://debirobinson.com/Stronger Bones Lifestyle Podcast: https://debirobinson.com/stronger-bones-lifestyle-podcast-take-control-of-your-bone-health/Healthy Gut, Healthy Bones program and the Stronger Bones Lifestyle Community (available through Debi’s website)Dentosophy, a functional approach combining myofunctional, occlusal, and craniofascial therapyThe SMART method (Safe Mercury Amalgam Removal Technique)Connect With Debi Robinson:Website: https://debirobinson.com/ Instagram: @debirobinsonwellness Podcast: https://debirobinson.com/stronger-bones-lifestyle-podcast-take-control-of-your-bone-health/Connect With Dr. Carver on IG 📱 @drrachaelecarver Still dealing with bleeding gums, bad breath, or gum recession and not sure where to start?

  • 93. Parasites in Your Mouth? Kim Rogers, The Worm Queen

    93. Parasites in Your Mouth? Kim Rogers, The Worm Queen
    Oct 11 2026
    Have you ever felt like you're doing everything right, eating well, taking your supplements, showing up for every appointment, and your body still isn't getting better? Maybe you've been told your labs look normal, or that this is just how life is going to be now. Sometimes the answer isn't another prescription. It's something hiding where no one thought to look, and very often, that place is the mouth.This week, I'm joined by Kim Rogers, known to millions as The Worm Queen. After 13 surgeries and being told there was nothing left to try, Kim took her health into her own hands. We talk about parasites, root canals, biofilm, and what it really means to be your own patient advocate.What You'll Learn in This Episode:Why parasites can live in the mouth, and why root canals, implants, and old extraction sites can become places where microbes hide without any symptoms.How a cone beam scan, a 3D dental X-ray, helped Kim finally see a missed root and an infection that had been there for years.What biofilm is, and why antibiotics alone may not reach infections hiding behind that protective layer.Why a root canal isn't automatically good or bad, and how newer technology and a well-supported immune system can make a big difference.Why parasite cleansing has to be balanced, with support and nourishment alongside the killing phase, so your body isn't thrown into a harder place.About Kim Rogers: Kim holds two healthcare degrees, has run 25 healthcare colleges, and has written medical textbooks. After years of endometriosis, undiagnosed Lyme, mold, and parasites, she started sharing her healing journey on TikTok in July 2021, and one video changed everything. Today she's the founder of Rogers Hood Apothecary and host of the podcast What's Eating U. She's on a mission to help people find sovereignty over their own health.Key Insights: So here's the thing I want you to hear. Your mouth isn't separate from the rest of your body. Kim went 15 years with an infected root canal and no symptoms, and she's not alone. When a tooth loses its blood supply, the immune system can't keep watch over that area the same way. That's why checking your mouth, and actually seeing your cone beam scan, matters so much, especially if you're dealing with chronic illness.One thing I've learned in my own healing, and parasites were a huge part of clearing my eczema, is that you can't just kill, kill, kill. It took me over a decade because I kept going after the bugs instead of rebuilding the terrain of my body. Nourishment, minerals, stress, digestion, all of it plays a role. When we're stuck in fight or flight, those critters thrive.And again, that's the long-term play. I was just at a biologic dental conference where they shared a case of a root canal that was fine for years. Then the person went through a major illness and emotional stress, their immune system took a hit, and the tooth became reinfected. So the question becomes, what's happening in the body that tooth lives in? Support the whole person, and you give that tooth the best chance.Resources Mentioned:Rogers Hood Apothecary: ParaFy Kit, Sustain, and Metal Flush, at https://rogershood.com/What's Eating U podcast with Kim Rogers, available on all streaming platforms and YouTubeCone beam CT (CBCT) scansFotona laser, ozone, and ultrasonic cleaning for root canal disinfection"Endo wave" technology [unclear in transcript, please verify the product name]ThermographyMicroscope evaluation of the oral microbiome[Placeholder: Add promo code or affiliate link if available]Connect With Kim Rogers: Website: https://rogershood.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mrsrogers.hood/Connect With Dr. Carver on IG 📱 @drrachaelecarver Still dealing with bleeding gums, bad breath, or gum recession and not sure where to start?

  • 92: The Hidden Power of Minerals, Colloidal Silver, Copper and Gold with Seth Quinto

    92: The Hidden Power of Minerals, Colloidal Silver, Copper and Gold with Seth Quinto
    Sep 27 2026
    If you've ever wondered whether you're actually getting everything your cells need from a "balanced diet," this episode is for you. We talk so much about magnesium and calcium on this show, but there's a whole category of trace minerals and metals working quietly behind the scenes in your body, and most of us have never been taught why they matter or how to use them well. This week I sat down with my dear friend and colleague Seth Quinto, co-founder of Natural Immunogenics and the force behind Sovereign Silver and Argentyn 23, to talk about one of the most misunderstood substances in natural health: colloidal silver.What You'll Learn in This Episode:Why trace minerals and metals, not just the "big two" like calcium and magnesium, are essential to cellular processes and often overlooked in mainstream nutrition conversations.The real history of colloidal silver, why it's been used for millennia, and why most people have never heard about it in a medical context.What separates a properly manufactured, bioavailable silver product from something you'd find sitting in a plastic bottle on a health food store shelf.How Argentyn 23 is being used in biologic dental practices, including post-extraction healing support, and why sourcing and manufacturing quality matter so much here.Why "sovereignty," taking ownership of your own health decisions, is at the center of how Seth and his family built this company.About Seth Quinto: Seth Quinto is co-founder of Natural Immunogenics, the company behind Sovereign Silver and Argentyn 23. He joined the family business in 2001 after a career on Wall Street, and has spent over two decades building relationships with medical, dental, and naturopathic practitioners across the country. What started as his father's late-in-life research project became one of the most trusted names in colloidal silver, built on serious science and even more serious integrity.Key Insights: One of the things I loved most about this conversation is how much of Seth's story is really a story about persistence and purpose. His father lost his life's work in aviation, and rather than give up, he redirected that same drive into what became the largest independent research effort ever undertaken on silver. That's the kind of origin story that tells you everything about why this company does things the hard, right way instead of the easy way.We also got into something I see in my own practice constantly: the difference between products that just mask a symptom and products that actually support your body's own healing mechanisms. Seth talked about how Argentyn 23 is used after extractions and more involved procedures to support healing, and honestly, it echoes what I tell patients all the time. When you give the body what it needs instead of just suppressing what it's doing, healing looks completely different.Seth also shared something I think about a lot, the idea of "clean terminals." Just like a battery needs clean connections to function well, our bodies need us to be intentional about what we eat, what we're exposed to, and who we surround ourselves with. It's such a simple metaphor, but it really is the root of the matter.Connect With Seth Quinto: Website: Argentyn23.com | SovereignSilver.com Phone: 888-328-8840 Connect With Dr. Carver on IG 📱 @drrachaelecarver Still dealing with bleeding gums, bad breath, or gum recession and not sure where to start?
