The Evidence Brief

There is a gap between what the research says and what the internet tells you. The Evidence Brief exists to close it.


Julian Douwes, M.D. is Chief Medical Officer of a German hospital and works in functional medicine, chronic infectiology, Lyme disease, neuroscience and neuromodulation. Every week he takes one topic from longevity, brain health, chronic infections, peptides or functional medicine and walks through what the evidence actually shows: strong, moderate, emerging, limited or preclinical. Experimental protocols are taken seriously. Nothing is treated as risk free. No miracle claims, no dismissals, no sponsor-shaped opinions.


Most episodes are solo. When a topic needs a specialist, a researcher or a clinician joins to put it in its proper light.


The show is education, not medical advice. Nothing here replaces the conversation you need to have with your own physician.
