In this eye-opening episode of The Functional Edge, I welcome Dr. Mark DeBrincat, known as the Good News Doctor, who shares his inspiring personal healing journey and introduces the revolutionary GlycoCheck system. After surviving a heart attack and severe injury despite leading a healthy lifestyle, Dr. DeBrincat set out to uncover better ways to assess cardiovascular and metabolic risk beyond traditional testing.

Discover how the GlycoCheck scan provides unprecedented insights into your microvascular health, why the glycocalyx lining is crucial to preventing disease, and how early symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, erectile dysfunction, and hair loss are often linked to hidden microcirculation damage.

Dr. DeBrincat also shares natural interventions—from PEMF devices to powerful seaweed extracts—to help restore microvascular function and protect your health in today’s world. Tune in to learn how proactive testing and targeted care can change your future.


I had a fascinating conversation with Dr. Mark DeBrincat on The Functional Edge, where he shared his powerful story of overcoming severe injury and heart disease. We explored how hidden microvascular damage drives chronic illness, why GlycoCheck testing can reveal what standard labs miss, and which natural therapies can help restore your body’s vascular health. If you’re seeking a proactive approach to heart, brain, and metabolic wellness, this episode is a must-listen.
