Скачать или смотреть SEAL Doctor Exposes the Ambien Nightmare That Tanked Testosterone in The Teams

In this episode of The HOTWASH by Born Primitive Tactical, host Bruno Fallon and former Navy SEAL turned physician Dr. Kirk Parsley deliver a raw, veteran-to-veteran deep dive into “Operator Syndrome” — the brutal cascade of hormonal collapse, cognitive fog, rage, fat gain, and chronic pain that hits elite warriors after decades of unrelenting mileage and zero recovery. Parsley recounts how, in 2009 as the SEAL Teams’ doc, he discovered jacked 30-year-olds with bloodwork resembling sick 55-year-olds, traced it directly to the community’s toxic sleep culture and Ambien/alcohol cocktails that obliterated deep sleep and REM, and fixed most of it simply by getting guys off pills and onto targeted natural sleep supplements — tripling testosterone, crashing inflammation, and restoring performance overnight. The conversation expands into blast-induced brain injuries (every unsuppressed round delivering hundreds of Gs), heavy-metal toxicity, military suppression of the truth for recruiting optics, and the life-changing power of ibogaine and other plant medicines that rapidly boost neuroplasticity and silence the hyperactive amygdala in ways traditional psychiatry can’t touch. Packed with hard-earned lessons on strategic naps, peptide healing stacks, hormone optimization, hyperbaric therapy, and the non-negotiable priority of eight hours of real sleep, it’s a must-listen wake-up call for every operator, cop, firefighter, or high-performer who still believes “four hours is enough” and wonders why their body and mind are breaking at 35.
