The Dylan Gemelli Podcast

Welcome to my special 175th EPISODE! This is also my very first special roundtable interview! I could not have had two better than Dr. Josh Axe and Dr. Will Cole as my first guests! These roundtables are a gathering of the most brilliant and impactful minds, coming together to offer deep thoughts and insights of the most discussed aspects of health, wellness and faith! These roundtables will be continuing as special episodes each month to continue to do God's work in bringing as many of us together to make the biggest impact possible!! ENJOY!! For years, I thought that if I ate right, trained hard, stayed disciplined, and took care of my body, I was doing everything I needed to stay healthy. But I've learned that being healthy on the outside doesn't always mean everything is healthy on the inside. My father passed away from a heart attack at just 59 years old. And despite everything I've done to take care of myself, I recently discovered that I have elevated Lp(a) levels and plaque in my arteries. That was a…

Over the years, I've had the privilege of learning from some incredible doctors, experts, and people from all walks of life. And through my work, my podcast, and the thousands of conversations I've had, I've started noticing something that genuinely concerns me. People don't know who to trust anymore. There's so much conflicting information out there, especially when it comes to health, nutrition, supplements, and the advice we see on social media. Everyone seems to have an answer, everyone claims to be an expert, and too many people are more interested in selling you something than actually helping you. But something I've learned over the years, including through my own mistakes, is that being knowledgeable doesn't mean having all the answers. I've had to learn to admit when I'm wrong, question my own beliefs, and understand that what works for one person might not work for another. That's why I wanted to dedicate this episode to something I believe everyone needs to understand: how to recognize someone you…

I've spent years learning about health, longevity, supplements, and ways to optimize the human body. And one thing I've learned is that there's always something new to discover. But there's also a lot of misinformation out there, especially when it comes to supplements and products promising to improve our health. That's why I believe it's so important to understand the science behind what we're putting into our bodies, rather than simply trusting what's written on a label. And that's what made this conversation with my good friend Chris Burres so interesting. Chris is a carbon nanomaterial scientist, entrepreneur, author of Live Longer and Better, and co-founder of MyVitalC. His company has been manufacturing C60, a molecule whose discovery contributed to a Nobel Prize in Chemistry, since 1991. During our conversation, Chris walked me through the history of this molecule, the science behind its potential benefits, and why he believes it could play a role in supporting energy, sleep, recovery, and healthy…

I've spent a big part of my life focused on health, fitness, nutrition, and finding ways to get the most out of my body. But one thing I never paid nearly enough attention to was my mouth. I've had around 25 root canals and plenty of dental work over the years. And despite everything I've learned about health, I never really stopped to question how all of that might be affecting the rest of my body. That's one of the reasons I've been looking forward to this conversation for almost eight months. Dr. Dominik Nischwitz, better known as Dr. Dome, is a world-renowned biological dentist, author of It's All in Your Mouth, and founder of BioDentistry 3.0. He's dedicated his career to connecting dentistry with functional medicine, healing, and longevity. What fascinated me most wasn't just his knowledge of dentistry. It was his approach to health and his willingness to question things most people simply accept. We discussed root canals, metal fillings, ceramic implants, and why he believes oral health plays a much…

He passed his cardiac stress test with flying colors and received a clean bill of health from his doctors. Shortly afterward, he suffered a heart attack that nearly killed him. Determined to understand what went wrong, he began investigating the hidden risks of heart disease, insulin resistance, and the foods we consume every day. He is Dr. Daniel Trevor, a heart attack survivor, citizen scientist, serial entrepreneur, and author of Unholy Trinity: How Carbs, Sugar & Oils Make Us Fat, Sick & Addicted and How to Escape Their Grip. Drawing on more than 1,200 scientific references, Trevor challenges conventional nutrition advice and explores how the modern food industry, pharmaceutical companies, and healthcare system may influence our health.

He was only 33 years old, physically fit, and had normal cholesterol results. Yet an 85% blockage in one of his heart's most important arteries nearly cost him his life. He is Dr. John Kim, a functional medicine pharmacist, founder of Kim Wellness, and creator of the ENCORE Method. After surviving a heart attack in 2015, he began investigating the role of mold exposure, hidden infections, environmental toxins, and chronic stress in his own health crisis. In this episode, we talk about: ■ How Dr. Kim suffered a heart attack at just 33 despite being physically fit■ The hidden infections, mold exposure, and heavy metals he discovered after his heart attack■ How childhood trauma and chronic stress may affect long-term health■ The potential risks and side effects of commonly prescribed medications■ Why cholesterol alone doesn't tell the full story of cardiovascular health■ How environmental toxins may affect cellular health and inflammation■ The differences between conventional and regenerative farming■ Why…

There are some things powerful systems would rather you never question and THIS behind-the-scenes conversation gets into exactly WHY. This is not a traditional interview. It’s a conversation between two men who have both made serious money, lost years of their lives to prison, rebuilt themselves, and learned some of their hardest lessons through experience. Dylan and Kevin get into money, prison, success, medicine, mindset, credibility, failure, faith and the uncomfortable truths most people would rather avoid. Because money is not about chasing shortcuts. Success is shaped by your environment more than motivation. Failure gets worse when you keep making excuses. Credentials mean less than real-world performance. Prison can either break you or force you to take accountability. Medicine should make you question incentives and authority. Mindset is shaped by the way you speak to yourself. Wealth means very little if chasing it makes you miserable. And because one of self-help’s biggest promises “you can have…

He built a $300 MILLION business by outworking almost everyone around him. But eventually, the grind started showing up physically... from stress-induced hair loss to sleepless nights and burnout.

He appeared on the premiere episode of Shark Tank, is the co-author of Effortless Entrepreneur, and has spent more than two decades building, scaling and leading one of the most recognizable brands in the moving and junk-removal industry. In this episode, we talk about: ■ How College Hunks started with a beat-up cargo van and grew into a $300 million business ■ What happened when Nick appeared on the first-ever episode of Shark Tank ■ Why entrepreneurship can become an emotional rollercoaster ■ How chronic stress caused Nick to lose a patch of his hair ■ How burnout affects your decisions, relationships and leadership ■ The six areas Nick uses to evaluate…

Most people are chasing better health in the wrong order. They look for the next supplement, peptide, diet, drug, or shortcut... while IGNORING the foundation underneath all of it. After more than 25 years of studying hormones, peptides, nutrition, health, and wellness, Dylan explains why optimizing your bloodwork or diet may not be enough if you’re constantly stressed, unhappy, sleep-deprived, or stuck in fight-or-flight mode. He explores the connection between faith and health, mindset, nervous system regulation, gratitude, discipline, sleep, nutrition, stress, peptides, and longevity, and explains why the basics still matter more than the latest health hack. This episode isn’t about another shortcut to losing weight or feeling better. It’s about building the foundation that allows everything else to work. In this episode: ■ Why Dylan puts God first in his approach to health ■ The connection between faith, hope, love, and well-being ■ Why gratitude may be one of the most underrated health practices ■…

Most people don’t need MORE supplements. They need to stop taking the WRONG ones.

Some of the things you’ve been told are protecting your pet may actually be doing more harm than good. Certified cannabis and fungi clinician Angela Ardolino challenges the conventional approach to pet health and explains why she believes everything from highly processed food and pesticides to certain medications and poorly formulated supplements may be contributing to chronic health problems in our animals.

Episode #163: The #1 Trait of Unhealthy People! (this makes you sick) DYLAN DOES NOT HOLD BACK! You can eat well, train consistently, sleep properly and have perfect bloodwork and still be UNHEALTHY. Because some of the most damaging things we carry have nothing to do with food, exercise or supplements. Negativity. Resentment. Anger. Constant comparison. Refusing to take accountability. Spending your time arguing with strangers, obsessing over other people’s opinions and looking for another reason to be upset. In this episode, Dylan breaks down the characteristics he believes are shared by some of the unhealthiest people, and why improving your physical health may be impossible without first addressing what is happening mentally and spiritually. Dylan Gemelli is the host of The Dylan Gemelli Podcast, where he explores health, longevity, human performance, mindset and faith through conversations with leading doctors, researchers and experts, as well as his own experiences and perspectives. His approach to…

Three and a half years ago, he was diagnosed with a serious spinal infection and told he might neverwalk normally again. For nearly a year, he couldn’t walk independently. He spent most of his days in bed, researchingeverything he could about regeneration, cellular healing and what it might take to recover from aninjury doctors considered potentially irreversible. Today, he says he is pain-free and in some of the best shape of his life. In this episode, Dr. Axe joins Dylan for a new episode, following up to their huge first conversation earlier in the year, to unpack what that experience taught him about healing from the inside out, and why the health of your cells, mitochondria and cell membranes may tell you far more than symptoms alone.

Episode #155: Is Biohacking TAKING IT TOO FAR?? The dangers of EXTREMISM! I have been sitting on the sidelines, watching the evolution of content being put out over the past few years in the health and biohacking universe. What I see is disappointing, disheartening and frustrating. Biohacking was intended to take a stance against all of the wrongs and narratives that have plagued our world year after year after year. As time has gone on, the propaganda, forceful nature of big pharma and government, along with the way our foods are produced and handled, has made our nation the unhealthiest it has been since its existence. The intention of taking a stand with functional and holistic approaches, preventing not treating, has become not only more acceptable, but also more relied upon. The problem is that many people in the industry are becoming exactly what they despised and had initially taken a stand against! The fear mongering, extremism and cause of confusion and hopelessness amongst people listening and…

In saying that, I had a very high level of expectation for my interview with Dr. Perlmutter. I had been wanting this interview for quite some time and jumped on the opportunity when his team reached out to me. What I obtained from our conversation was FAR more than I expected. His level of brilliance is well known but his demeanor, attitude and personality resonated with me to the highest extent. His true dedication, care and positive energy filled the room. This was one of the most enjoyable conversations and interviews I have ever had. You will quickly see and feel the synergy of the conversation and will learn from one…

Episode #153 Featuring Dr. Joel Fuhrman The creator of the NUTRITARIAN DIET! I was introduced to Dr. Joel Fuhrman by my great friend Javant Benton known online as "Healthy Vegan Eating". After interviewing Javant, he told me that Dr. Fuhrman was his mentor and that I absolutely had to meet him... I am extremely happy that I did! Dr. Fuhrman is my kind of guy, as he is very outspoken on his belief set with diet and brings the facts to back it up! Throughout the interview, Dr. Fuhrman adamantly defended his advocation for a nutrient-dense, plant based diet and its ability to reverse chronic disease. For over 30 years, Dr. Fuhrman has shown that it is possible to achieve sustainable weight loss and reverse heart disease, diabetes, and many other illnesses using smart nutrition. In his medical practice, and through his books and television specials, he continues to bring this life-saving message to hundreds of thousands of people around the world.

Episode #152 Featuring Justin Roethlingshoefer! Holy Health: Habits and Rhythms to Heal Your Body and Transform Your Life! I know that I say this often, but I want to reiterate how blessed I am for the people I get to interview and the friends that I am able to make. I speak to people of all walks of life and get to talk about every topic known to man. I can go back to every episode and still remember something that stood out to me, that really hit home and made an impact. In saying that, I am always careful to ever say someone is my favorite guest or make it seem I prefer one of the others, that would be untrue HOWEVER when it comes to pure resonation and personal impact, my interview with Justin Roethlingshoefer hit me in an entirely different way. His true grasp of utilizing his God given gifts, especially with regards to Wisdom has made an everlasting impact on me and will to all of you! He is one of a kind and his voice is one that must be heard! In our in depth discussion, we talked about faith,…

Episode #151: My Special Guest Appearance on the HUMAN UPGRADE Podcast with Dave Asprey On occasion, when I have a highly impactful guest appearance on another podcast, I will publish it here for all of you to listen! THIS interview was a no brainer for me to publish! I knew that going into my discussion with Dave, there would be a great synergy but I had no idea it would be to such a high extent. To call this entertaining, would be a drastic understatement. Dave has the kind of dry humor that I appreciate to the highest extent, a type of FUN that brings joy and laughter into my life and our back and forth was FILLED with this. You will hear a lot of chuckles, pauses with smiles and laughing but also, a wide array of topics most people refuse to touch. We both have a no holds barred way of conveying our message and while we both come across differently, the points are well received and the synergy between our thoughts is not just entertaining but keeps you guessing and wanting more. This is the kind of stand…

SPECIAL EPISODE #150!!!! Mind, Body and GOD! Unlocking the path to obtaining FULL Health Alignment! For my 150th Episode, I wanted to provide what I felt would be the most IMPACTFUL message I have ever given. This is not about a big name guest or click bait hooks of any kind. This is simply about IMPACT... I want to provide hope and inspiration along with CLARITY to everyone. I have found that the biggest issue amongst people trying to learn and make changes is CONFUSION. Mixed messaging and extremism is rampant and it is causing people to lose hope in who they should listen to and what they should do in their journey through life. This episode is not a lecture, nor a scripted speech. It is a Holy Spirit driven message on what I have learned throughout my entire life on how to TRULY obtain Total Health Alignment. It is not a trick diet, use of miracle drugs or supplements, biohacks, "conventional man made medicine" or any other type of new fad and craze. It requires a full connection starting with a…

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT! Upcoming 150th Episode Release and BEYOND! It is beyond surreal to be announcing my upcoming 150th Episode Release! When I started the podcast at the beginning of 2025, I was not sure about a lot of things with it, but I knew I was called to do it and so I listened to God's will and followed His guidance. TRUST is the key and by having that trust, it has become my life's work and journey to provide everyone with my very best efforts to bring you the best minds in the world, to be open minded, highlighting all walks of life, clearing up confusion, opening eyes to the TRUE realities of what is going on around us without fear mongering or click baiting and doing what I feel will benefit everyone, with the goal of bringing everyone to God, with faith, love and hope and to enhance EVERYONE'S quality of life! I have been blessed to have some of the most brilliant minds in the world come to interview with me and as we move forward, I have even bigger aspirations, huge new projects, even more…

Episode #148: The TRUTH about TRT (Testosterone Replacement Therapy)!! Do You REALLY Need TRT? Is Testosterone use "dangerous"? What blood markers should you check? Is it "cheating" and more!! Testosterone has quickly become the most talked about, misunderstood and polarizing hormone on the planet. Average testosterone levels are at an all time low WORLDWIDE! Not only is this a growing problem for men, but also women, especially when going through menopause. There is fear, misunderstanding, misuse and lack of proper care making it a prevalent problem when it comes to PROPER dosage, treatment and type of testosterone used. In this episode I discuss myths and realities of testosterone and TRT therapy. I have spent over 15 years working with clients, practitioners, clinics and drug companies, studying and learning the complexities and science behind these truths and misconceptions.

Episode #147 Featuring Dr. Anthony Balduzzi! The Fit Father Project! Conventional vs. Non Conventional, Food as Medicine, Aging Gracefully, Bodybuilding the RIGHT way and more! I was recently introduced to Dr. Anthony Balduzzi and hit it off within the first minute of conversation. Dr. Balduzzi runs the Fit Father Project, The #1 Fitness Plan and Community for Men over 40.

It is a 3 day event to invest in your health, connect with your tribe, break free from stress, and step into your most fit, alive, clear, and connected years ahead.

Episode #146 Featuring Ben Azadi! KETO FLEX: The Massively Impactful New Book from the Keto King Ben Azadi! The ULTIMATE INTERVIEW on KETO and FOOD Science! It was an honor and a pleasure to spend a day with my close friend Ben Azadi for our recent interview. Many of you know Ben as a best selling author and as one of the most highly regarded experts on metabolic flexibility as well as the Ketogenic Diet. These are all very accurate assessments but his brilliance extends far past these areas along with the genuine purpose he carries with him to do God's work. He is a massive blessing to everyone and his work and message resonate with EVERYONE! As you know, Ben's new book "Keto Flex" released today and while that was a centerpiece of our discussion, anyone that follows me knows that when I do interviews, they generally go anywhere and everywhere and this certainly fits that bill! As noted, Ben and I are close friends so we waste zero time getting right into metabolic health and flexibility, followed by an in…

Episode #145: The WOLVERINE Stack Explained! The stack that started it all... BPC-157 and TB-500! The ORIGINAL Ultimate Healing Peptide Stack As many of you know by now, I discovered peptides in 2011, when there were less than 10 to choose from. I have watched them grow into having thousands of options for every type of need and condition out there. The stack that started the "peptide craze" quickly became known as the "Wolverine Stack" because of it's ability to provide rapid and REAL healing as opposed to simply offering temporary relief (band-aiding the wound) It drew comparison to the well known Marvel character, Wolverine, who had the power or regenerating himself from ANY injury or wound. While these two amazing peptides do not have the ability to heal bullet wounds, they have worked wonders to help rapidly increase recovery times, healing capabilities and have even shown to have other benefits, including gut health, which is one of the most prevalent problem areas in ALL of health we see today. I…

Episode #144 Featuring Dan Pardi! The CHIEF Health Officer at QUALIA LIFE! Inside the WORLD OF SUPPLEMENT DEVELOPMENT! I was introduced to the extremely well known supplement company Qualia late last year and was immediately drawn to their products. It started with many people I hold in high regard being staunch supporters but when I was looked into their product formulas, I saw a far different make up than I generally see. The products had far different ingredient make up than most traditional products, along with addressing mind and body, which fell in line with what I teach. I tried several products along with my wife that quickly became staples for us. Of course, I then reached out to Qualia to discuss potential interviews with their developers or someone within the company who could give insight on what they do! Enter my guest today Dan Pardi. When I heard about Dan and was told he carries a PHD in neuroscience, I immediately became intrigued and asked to be connected with him and we hit it off…

Episode #143 Featuring Dr. Felice Chan! The HEALING Episode! A deep look into all healing options! Traditional Chinese Medicine, Eastern vs. Western, Traditional vs. Non-traditional and MORE! My episode with Dr. Felice Chan is the type of discussion I THRIVE on! Her ability to intertwine all the different aspects of healing, with a non bias and deep explanation on all of the pros and cons was enlightening but even more so, ENCOURAGING. To have someone so thoughtful and insightful that covers all the bases and carries the level of ethical foundation that Dr. Felice has is a breath of fresh air to say the least!! Her delivery and soothing voice enthralls you into wanting to hear more!! We start off the conversation going right into the polarizing topic of Conventional vs. Non Conventional medicine and treatments.

The GUT Breakdown Your Health DEPENDS ON! The most comprehensive breakdown of the gut you will find!! A few months ago, I was introduced to the brand Just Thrive. Someone who I consider a brother told me they were at the top of the mountain for their well known Spore based probiotic and that they were the one company he trusted for total gut health and alignment. After trying their products I quickly realized and saw the significant difference between them and the many other "top name brands" I had tried. I was able to meet with them and was introduced to Kiran Krishnan, their chief microbiologist. I was told he was the brain behind them launching the first spore-based probiotic guaranteed to arrive 100% alive in your gut. I was enamored within 5 minutes of our…

Episode #141: KPV: The New KING of Peptides! Why KPV is TAKING OVER the world of Peptides! Most of you that follow me know my deep affection for Peptides. If you are not aware, I discovered Peptides in 2011 when there were less than 10 to choose from in the research chemical world. I have watched them evolve into one of the most discussed and sought after choices for "alternative" medicines and treatments in the WORLD. There are certain peptides that have dominated discussions, from BPC-157, to different GLP-1's but the true GEMS are still being overlooked by the mass majority. My purpose is to bring EVERYTHING to light so people are aware of ALL the options they have and may need! ENTER KPV... I have made it VERY WELL KNOWN for the past few months that KPV is my FAVORITE peptide of them all... MANY of you deal or have dealt with chronic inflammation for years, and the worst part is the not knowing. Constant swelling, pain, fatigue, and treatments that either do nothing or hand you a brand new problem. Then…

Episode #138: 7 Things YOU NEED To Know about NAD+ !! The Dylan Gemelli NAD Optimization Protocol POWERED by Jinfiniti! I have spent the past 6 months in deep study about ALL aspects of NAD+ It came to my attention that it was one of the most misunderstood and widely misused molecules in the world! NAD (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a small but powerful molecule found in every cell in your body. It helps keep your muscles, brain and heart healthy. Without NAD, you wouldn’t be able to turn food into energy, move your muscles or stay alive. While NAD levels drop as you age, making healthy daily choices may help support it. Most people are misled into just taking straight NAD without an understanding that it is too large of a molecule to penetrate your cells and you need a precursor to increase NAD levels. I discuss the way to increase your levels, along with how to know if your levels are actually increasing. My goal in this discussion is help everyone overcome misguided and confusing information, as…

Some conversations hit differently because you don’t have to imagine what the other person has been through. This was one of those conversations for me. Wallo267 and I have very different stories, but we share an experience that permanently changed the way we look at life: PRISON. We both lost our freedom, watched time pass from inside a system, and eventually came out understanding just how valuable that time really is. Wallo267, born Wallace Peoples, spent a total of 20 years incarcerated after first entering prison at just 17 years old. Today, he is a serial entrepreneur, social influencer and activist, three-time TEDx speaker, New York Times bestselling author, and a voice of inspiration reaching millions of people. But what interested me most wasn’t the résumé. It was the man behind it. In This Episode, We Talk About: ■ Why Wallo believes prison saved his life ■ What prison taught both of us about time and freedom ■ Rebuilding your identity after incarceration ■ Why your worst moment doesn’t have to…

I am here to debunk, dissect and correct ALL of these problems to help people understand testosterone entirely. During my teaching, I cover the reasons why so many people are suffering from low testosterone and lifestyle changes that can help to maintain healthier levels.

Episode #130 Featuring Ulrich Dempfle, CO-FOUNDER of Carol Bike! STOP OVERTRAINING! How to maximize your results in a fraction of the time! I was introduced to the Carol Bike several months ago and was immediately intrigued. Several of my colleagues told me that "I HAD to try it" and that it was a "game changer." I am one that is positive by nature but always have my guard up given the years of behind the scenes I have had in all aspects of business and marketing. I had high hopes and that was over exceeded by the bike itself but even more so, with the team at Carol Bike. There are several good products but having amazing people is not as common and when I find them, I want to share them with the world and that is why I wanted to interview the Carol Bike co-founder, Ulrich Dempfle.

Episode #129: The REAL Reason Why Your Peptides and Supplements ARE NOT WORKING! The internet and social media are FLOODED with pictures and stories of people getting unfathomable results from peptides, supplements and even natural herbs. Some of these are factual and some are completely overblown and misleading. How do we find a middle ground and what do we know to be true or false? Studies are great but often times they can also be misleading and controlled so real world examples of people with no motives are essential. Many of these products and drugs DO work and provide amazing results yet there are groups of people who do not obtain the same results, if any at all. WHY is this happening? THAT is a question that certainly can be answered, but it has to be looked at with OPEN EYES. It is easy to make excuses or throw stones without digging in to the REALITY of the cause! I provide everyone with the real answers to this question and more! Often times the answer is looking right back at you in the mirror…
