Medical Devices vs. Drugs: Breaking Down FDA Pathways with IBAL Innovations
Episode 17
Tuesday, 28 October, 2025
Welcome back to Health Unlocked! In today’s episode, Jasen Petersen explores a fascinating and refreshingly practical side of health innovation: how medical devices like IBAL are rewriting the rules of bringing new interventions to market. If you’ve ever wondered why some health-supporting products aren’t classified as drugs or supplements, or how the FDA draws that crucial line, you’ll love this discussion.Jasen, speaking from both professional and personal experience (post-lithotripsy, no less - ouch!), walks us through the surprising world of medical device regulation. He explains why IBAL, a micronutrient matrix designed to restore foundational cellular health, qualifies as a medical device rather than a drug and why that distinction could make innovative treatments far more accessible, affordable, and fast to reach those who need them most.Along the way, you’ll hear about strange regulatory quirks (like how toothpaste can be a cosmetic, a drug, or a device!), learn what it truly means for something to have a “PMI mechanism,” and get a behind-the-scenes look at how shifting the regulatory path from drugs to devices could transform healthcare innovation for both patients and investors.By the end, you’ll have a whole new appreciation for how creative science, regulatory strategy, and a bit of bold thinking can work together to unlock better health for everyone.
