In this episode of the Boss Body Podcast, Dr. Tim Jackson hosts Dr. Kent Holtorf, an expert in peptides and immune system imbalances. Dr. Holtorf shares his personal battle with chronic illness and his shift from traditional to integrative therapies, which led to his health improvement. They discuss the role of peptides in immune function, the limitations of conventional medicine, and the importance of an evidence-based approach. The conversation covers immune dysfunction, chronic infections, and the benefits of thymic and pineal peptides for health. They also address regulatory challenges in medicine, the effects of mold mycotoxins, and treatments for immune modulation and coagulopathy. The episode concludes with the potential of bio regulators in reversing aging.

Episode highlights:

Kent Holtorf, M.D. is the medical director of the Holtorf Medical Group (HoltorfMed.com) (opened twenty-two corporate centers and nine franchises) and the founder and medical director of the non-profit National Academy of Hypothyroidism (NAHypothyroidism.org). He is also the founder of Integrative Peptides (IntegrativePeptides.com), bringing doctors and patients the highest quality bioidentical peptides as supplements with unique delivery systems. He is also dedicated to training physicians about ground-breaking peptide therapies for TBI, depression, immune dysfunction, PTSD, cancer therapies, longevity, neurodegenerative disease, difficult-to-treat chronic infections, CFS, fibromyalgia, autoimmune disease, biologic age reversal, hormone dysfunction, and multisystem chronic illness. 

Dr. Holtorf started a program to treat injured and disabled veterans (Veterans Appreciation Program – Holtorf Medical Group), many with traumatic brain injury, PTSD, toxic exposures, and other difficult-to-diagnosis and treat multi-system illnesses. After seeing numerous doctors and specialists for years without improvement, a particularly sick special forces veteran who was in a coma for an extended period of time saw a dramatically rapid improvement with unique, innovative therapies. The story got out and resulted in a director and a producer wanting to do a documentary highlighting the unknown availability of effective care for these sick veterans that mainstream medicine is unfamiliar. The documentary includes a production-finance-distribution agreement with a twelve-part series scheduled to air on Amazon, Hulu, and other major outlets.

Dr. Holtorf is an internationally known lecturer, author, and innovator in cutting-edge research and treatments. He has lectured at almost 100 CME-approved medical society conferences and has been a featured guest on most every national network news program. He is on the Steering Committee for A4M/International Peptide Society and was the Endocrinology Expert for AOL Health; he has published multiple peer-reviewed endocrine review articles on complex, multi-system, poorly understood conditions and longevity, which demonstrates that much of the long-held dogma in endocrinology, longevity, and infectious disease is inaccurate. He is also a guest editor and peer-reviewer for multiple medical journals, including Endocrine.

He has been a featured guest on numerous major news outlets and print media, including CNBC, ABC News, CNN, Fox News, Good Morning America, The Today Show, Discovery Health, The Doctors, The Learning Channel, the Wall Street Journal, Los Angeles Times, US News and World Report, The medical journal Endocrine, San Francisco Chronicle, WebMD, and Forbes, among many others.
