The health system isn’t broken by accident… it’s built this way.In this episode, Sam Tejada, a former firefighter-paramedic turned longevity expert, reveals what he saw firsthand inside the medical system that changed everything. After years of watching patients get worse instead of better, he walked away and built a new path focused on prevention, not profit.From toxins silently damaging your body to the foods we’ve normalized that were never meant for human consumption, this conversation exposes the hidden drivers behind modern disease.We break down what’s actually happening inside your body, how toxins affect gene expression, why most people fall off a health cliff after 65, and the daily habits that separate those who thrive from those who decline.This episode will change the way you look at food, health, and the system you’ve trusted your entire life.If you’ve ever felt like something is off with modern health advice… this is why.Follow US!YouTube: @TruthHurtsShow Brian's LinksInstagram: / https://www.instagram.com/briangoldphd TikTok: / https://www.tiktok.com/@briangoldphd Makan's LinksInstagram: / https://www.instagram.com/Makan.Mostafavi TikTok: / https://www.tiktok.com/@makanmostafavi Sam’s Links: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sammy_tejada Website: https://samtejada.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/samael.tejada Timestamps:0:00 — Welcome Sam!1:13 — How Sam got involved with MAHA / peptide talk2:03 — Sam's background story4:40 — Finding Sam’s longevity mentor14:13 — Opening Liquivida clinic15:50 — Diagnostics: DEXA scan & body composition17:09 — How to shred fat21:16 — Infrared sauna & detox deep dive23:57 — Chelation therapy / heavy metals27:00 — Glutathione: nebulizer, IV vs. liposomal29:30 — 5 foods to avoid36:10 — Nicotine benefits40:13 — Workout routine for longevity / rucking42:55 — Liquivida’s $3M equipment / red light therapy43:18 — Sculpt machine (20,000 sit-ups in 30 min)43:50 — Exomine / transcranial magnetic stimulation for brain health44:20 — Brain health supplements46:01 — NAD injections / IV NAD race story47:46 — Where to find Sam#longevity #healthtruth #biohacking #detox #functionalmedicine #holisitichealth #truthhurtsshow #wellness #antiaging #wellnesstips #garybrecka #andrewhuberman #briangoldstein #makanmostafaviHosted on Ausha.
