In this Ask Me Anything episode, I sat down with my telehealth team to explore some of your most surprising - and surprisingly common - questions. From creatine sensitivity to sinus mucus nodules, we dig into the science behind your symptoms and the stories behind the headlines. We discuss whether “Big Wellness” is falling into the same traps as Big Pharma, how to think critically about sunflower oil in supplements, and what to make of off-the-wall scans and diagnoses. These are the kinds of questions we get every day in our clinic, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to explore them with you here. My hope is that this episode gives you permission to ask better questions and take ownership of your health without fear or overwhelm.

A few of my favorite things we cover in this episode: 

  •  Why functional medicine is often accused of being “Big Wellness” - and Dr. Cole’s honest take on it
  • Creatine and anxiety: what could cause sensitivities and how to personalize dosage
  • Is a mucus nodule in the sinus cavity a parasite? Dr. Cole’s root-cause breakdown
  • What to do when a full-body scan shows something weird but doctors say you’re “fine”
  • Liposomal supplements and sunflower oil: are they worth it or problematic?
  • Balancing omega-3s and omega-6s in high-potency supplements
  • Why functional medicine isn’t about villainizing ingredients - but empowering smarter decisions
  • How Dr. Cole approaches “out there” health questions without fear-mongering or dismissal
