About this episode

  • We’re diving into one of the most misunderstood substances out there: NICOTINE!


    It might actually hold powerful healing potential—from neurological conditions to chronic pain and beyond. 👀 Dr. Ardis unpacks the history, the science, and the cover-ups—exposing the cracks in a system that’s kept real remedies in the shadows.
