293. Admiral Brian Christine, MD: Why 77% of Young Americans Can't Serve in the Military

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka

Gary Brecka

August 6, 2026

Show Notes

When Dr. Brian Christine, the 18th Assistant Secretary for Health, told me men's sperm counts have dropped nearly 50% in just a few decades, it stopped me cold. We got into why America has fallen below replacement fertility, what's really driving it, from microplastics to ultra-processed food, and why restoring peptides to compounding pharmacies matters for anyone who's been buying them online. If you care about your fertility, your health, and staying out of the chronic-disease hamster wheel, this one's for you.
