On this episode, Jared starts a new series - Mighty Minerals! He kicks the series off by exploring lithium from a completely different perspective—not just as a psychiatric medication, but as a naturally occurring trace mineral that may play a role in mood balance, stress resilience, sleep rhythm, and cognitive support. You’ll learn the difference between high-dose pharmaceutical lithium and low-dose nutritional lithium, why dosage and intent matter, and how integrative practitioners are using micro-doses as part of a broader wellness strategy. Jared also breaks down how lithium interacts with circadian rhythm, neurotransmitter signaling, and brain stability, plus how nutrients like magnesium, omega-3s, B vitamins, inositol, and adaptogenic herbs may complement it. This episode is educational and empowering, designed to help you think critically about mental wellness, trace minerals, and personal responsibility for your health.

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared introduces the “Magnificent Mushrooms” series. This first show gives you an overview of why medicinal mushrooms may be some of the most misunderstood tools in natural health. Instead of forcing body systems, mushrooms help educate and modulate them—supporting immune balance, gut health, brain function, and overall resilience. Jared explains the differences between fruiting body and mycelium, powders vs. extracts, fermented vs. concentrated forms, and how to choose between single and multi-mushroom formulas based on your health goals. You’ll also learn why mushrooms have been used in traditional wellness practices for centuries and how to use them intelligently in modern supplementation. If you’ve been curious about medicinal mushrooms but feel overwhelmed by the options, this foundational episode will help you understand what they do, how they work, and how to choose wisely.

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared takes a closer look at the cholesterol conversation and the widespread use of statin medications through a functional health lens. Rather than relying on fear or headlines, he explores how cholesterol numbers are interpreted, the difference between risk markers and root causes, and why metabolic health, inflammation, and lifestyle factors may play a larger role in long-term heart wellness. Jared also explains concepts like absolute risk, number needed to treat (NNT), and why informed decision-making matters when evaluating any health strategy. This episode encourages listeners to ask better questions, seek clarity, and consider a comprehensive approach to cardiovascular health that includes nutrition, movement, and targeted supplementation. As always, this discussion is educational and designed to empower you with information so you can make the best decisions for your personal health journey.
