In this episode of Longevity Unlocked, Coach Kyle and Dr. K dive deep into one of the most misunderstood and controversial conditions in modern medicine — Lyme disease.

They explore what Lyme disease really is, how it suppresses your immune system, why it’s so hard to test for, and the truth about conventional antibiotic treatments. Dr. K breaks down why most traditional protocols only offer temporary relief — and how addressing “Lyme’s friends” (like mold, parasites, and heavy metals) is essential for real recovery.

The hosts also uncover myths around transmission (including the possibility of sexual and mosquito-based spread), discuss why standard testing often fails, and reveal the integrative approach used at The Longevity Center to help patients suppress chronic Lyme and regain their health.

Whether you’ve been diagnosed with Lyme or just want to understand how infections impact longevity and immunity, this episode is a must-listen.

• Lyme is not just an infection — it’s an immune-suppressing condition that allows other toxins and pathogens to thrive.
• Traditional antibiotics only suppress symptoms temporarily and often lead to gut issues without resolving the root cause.
• Testing through Quest or LabCorp often gives false negatives — specialty labs like Vibrant or Igenex are far more accurate.
• Early detection is critical: if doxycycline isn’t started within 48 hours of the tick bite, it’s likely too late to stop systemic infection.
• Lyme has “friends” — co-infections and toxicities (like mold, metals, and parasites) must be addressed for true healing.
• There is hope: integrative medicine approaches using ozone, methylene blue, and targeted IV therapies can help patients suppress Lyme long-term.

Episode Summary

In this episode of Longevity Unlocked, Coach Kyle sits down with Dr. Matthew Dilallo, a chiropractor and former athlete based in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, to challenge the misconceptions around chiropractic care, back pain, and the healthcare system at large. Dr. Matt reveals why so many people bounce from appointment to appointment without lasting results—and what the best practitioners do differently.

He breaks down the real cause of chronic pain, the link between emotional release and physical healing, and why the key to long-term health is movement, not rest. They also tackle controversial topics like the myth of chiropractic strokes, why “good posture” is overrated, and how breathing and pelvic floor function impact your spine, circulation, and overall wellness. This is a conversation that bridges traditional chiropractic wisdom with performance medicine, holistic healing, and common sense.

Key Takeaways

Most back pain isn’t about your back. The pain you feel is often compensation for dysfunction elsewhere in the body—muscular, emotional, or even visceral.

Good care requires time and intention. The best practitioners listen deeply, diagnose holistically, and don’t rush patient outcomes. Movement heals. Stillness and rest can worsen chronic pain.

The right movement patterns are essential for circulation and recovery. The chiropractic “stroke risk” myth is wildly overblown.

The actual risk is lower than being struck by lightning.

True posture is dynamic. Instead of chasing “perfect posture,” focus on staying mobile and balanced. Breathing and pelvic floor health are underrated tools for resolving low back and hip pain.

Episode Summary

Why does one clinic charge $1,000 for PRP while another does it for $400? In this episode, Kyle and Dr. K break down the three levels of PRP — from “dirty” test-tube versions to top-tier double spin kits — and explain why not all platelet-rich plasma treatments are created equal.

You’ll learn what really determines PRP quality, why most patients don’t get lasting results from cheap injections, and how proper protocols and practitioner skill make the difference between temporary relief and real regeneration.

If you’ve ever considered PRP for joint pain, injury recovery, or longevity — this episode could save you from wasting money (and time) on ineffective treatments.

Key Takeaways

The quality of the PRP kit drastically impacts the outcome — you get what you pay for.

“Dirty PRP” often contains red blood cells and contaminants that cause unnecessary inflammation.

A double-spin PRP kit can concentrate growth factors up to 10–12x — far superior to single-spin or open-tube methods.

Effective PRP treatment isn’t about one injection — it’s about targeting all supporting structures and following the correct protocol.

Chronic issues often require a 3-treatment series for true healing and tissue regeneration.
