Mental & Metabolic Health: Brendan Vermeire & Samantha Land

From aspiring Navy SEAL to functional medicine practitioner, Brendan Vermeire has navigated injury, depression, and complex chronic disease to develop a practical approach to mental and metabolic health.

In this episode, he joins Samantha Lander, Functional Diagnostic Nutritionist, to explore:

• Why homocysteine and methylation matter more than most people realize
• The surprising potential of EDM music for brain health
• How mold, chronic inflammation, and gut-brain dysfunction influence behavior
• His Mental Map test for decoding complex chronic conditions.

If you’re curious about evidence-based strategies for mental clarity, chronic illness, and functional health, Brendan connects the dots between science, biomarkers, and everyday interventions.
