She documented his recovery in books including Louder Than Words and Healing and Preventing Autism, founded the vegan, cruelty-free beauty brand Formless Beauty, and now develops unscripted television, documentaries, and podcasts with her husband Donnie Wahlberg through their Work Baby Productions banner under a first look deal with Lionsgate.&nbsp;Dave and Jenny trace her son's autism diagnosis back to a vaccine reaction and walk through the biohacking protocol that helped him recover, including candida detox, activated charcoal binders, collagen and hypermobility support, and hacking his gut with a low toxin diet that removed wheat and dairy. They connect autism to mitochondria energy collapse and neuroinflammation, and explain how nootropics like modafinil restore focus without the crash of stimulants.&nbsp;The conversation moves into longevity and human performance strategies for adults, covering low dose Cialis for brain blood flow, DHEA and thyroid optimization for women over 35, peptide protocols including melanotan and Retatrutide, cyclical ketosis and fasting alternatives, and why hormone replacement therapy reverses aging instead of causing cancer.&nbsp;They dig into functional medicine tools for everyday life: electrolytes and salt for blood pressure and sleep optimization, blackout darkness for circadian repair, baking soda for metabolism and alkaline balance, and why Jenny trusts krill oil over fish oil for anti-aging support. Dave breaks down ibogaine and neuroplasticity for brain repair, defends his carnivore leaning diet, shares why Danger Coffee still starts his morning, and calls out AI chatbots for pushing censored health narratives.&nbsp;This is essential listening for anyone interested in biohacking, human performance, longevity, functional medicine, brain optimization, and building a smarter, not harder approach to supplements and long-term health.&nbsp;You'll Learn:&nbsp;<ul><li>How mold and candida trigger PANS and PANDAS, and why they mimic autism symptoms&nbsp;</li><li>Why activated charcoal timing determines whether it works as a binder&nbsp;</li><li>The link between collagen, hypermobility, and leaky gut in autism and long-term brain function&nbsp;</li><li>How modafinil, nicotine, and Cialis support brain optimization, focus, and mitochondria function&nbsp;</li><li>Why hormone replacement therapy and DHEA reverse aging in women after 35&nbsp;</li><li>The truth about ketosis supplements, structured water, and alkaline water myths&nbsp;</li><li>How darkness, light exposure, and electrolytes rebuild sleep optimization and metabolism&nbsp;</li></ul>&nbsp;Thank you to our sponsors!&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;- ZenBud | Dave’s Nervous System Biohack.
