In this episode of The Healthspan Collective, host Nicole Doran sits down with Dr. Abbey Kramer, chiropractor and medical director at Fringe, to cut through the noise on some of the most talked about and most misunderstood topics in the wellness space right now. From sunlight and microplastics to EMFs and the supplement industry, this conversation is equal parts eye-opening and practical, giving you real information you can actually apply to your daily life.

Dr. Kramer brings a grounded, no-nonsense clinical perspective to topics that tend to get either completely overcomplicated or wildly overhyped. She breaks down what actually matters, what is mostly marketing, and what most people are simply missing from their foundational wellness routine. If you have ever felt overwhelmed by wellness information and unsure what to actually prioritize, this episode is your starting point.
