Conversations With Maria Menounos

Hey, Heal Squad! This week’s Roundtable is turning the temperature up (and way down) as they dive into the wellness world’s favorite trends: cold plunges and saunas. Are they really the ultimate healing tools—or are we just copying viral biohacks that don’t fit our unique bodies? We’re breaking down what everyone’s talking about: the “Joe Rogan Method” of 39°F cold plunging with methylene blue. Is it effective? Dr. Allison shares why context, mitochondrial health, and even your ancestral DNA play a huge role in how your body responds to cold. We also explore sauna detox strategies and the truth about why sweating isn’t always as simple as it seems. PLUS, Maria opens up about her own experience with cryotherapy and why she stopped cold plunging after expert advice. (P.S. there’s a better, gentler way to build resilience that doesn’t involve shocking your system into stress) Tune in!! -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HE
