The Dr. Josh Axe Show

You don’t need to spend tens of thousands of dollars on exotic injections to heal your body. You already possess the ultimate, built-in repair system: your own stem cells. The problem? By the time you reach your mid-30s, the red marrow in your bones converts to fatty marrow, leading to a staggering 90% drop in circulating stem cells.

In this episode, stem cell scientist Christian Drapeau reveals the exact mechanisms behind human aging and how disease is simply a failure of endogenous repair. We discuss the clinical data proving that a 3-day fast triggers massive stem cell proliferation. We also decode 3,000-year-old Chinese medicine secrets, revealing the specific plants—like Fo-Ti, Goji Berry, Sea Buckthorn, and Blue-Green Algae—that actively mobilize stem cells from your bone marrow and drive them directly into injured tissues.

You eat clean, you exercise, and yet you are constantly exhausted, bloated, and struggling with brain fog. Your doctor says your labs are normal, but what if conventional tests are entirely missing the root cause?. Today, we uncover the hidden epidemic of parasitic infections—an issue affecting over 60 million Americans and 1 billion people worldwide.

In this episode, I’m breaking down the four pillars of recomposition to help you shrink your body fat, build lean muscle, and reclaim the energy you had in your 20s. For 30 years, the fitness world has preached the same rule: you have to "bulk" to gain muscle, or "cut" to lose fat. But modern science shows us a different path. It is entirely possible to do both at the same time through a process called Body Recomposition.
