Join Nicole Doran in a conversation with Dr. Christopher Shade, PhD, founder and CEO of Quicksilver Scientific, as they explore the deeper science behind detox, hormone balance, immune repair, and longevity. Dr. Shade unpacks how liposomal delivery systems, advanced binders, and immune-regulating peptides are reshaping the future of health.
From mold toxicity and post-viral inflammation to hormone imbalances and gallbladder dysfunction, Dr. Shade explains how today’s chronic health issues often stem from blocked drainage, overburdened detox pathways, and misunderstood hormone signals. You’ll hear how estrogen dominance can impact liver flow, how histamine reactions are often tied to nervous system overwhelm, and why proper sequencing is the key to safe and effective detox.
This episode offers a refreshingly detailed roadmap for anyone navigating brain fog, fatigue, inflammation, or hormonal chaos, with tools that blend clinical precision and root-cause thinking. Whether you’re a practitioner or a patient, Dr. Shade brings clarity to some of the most complex health puzzles.
If you’re ready to understand how detox, hormones, and immune function are truly connected, this conversation is packed with practical science, clinical insight, and a dose of hope.
