CBD has many health benefits with few side effects. It is antibacterial, anti infalmmatory and reduces anxiety and depression, It promotes bone grwoth and reduces nasuea and vomiting. Learn about the medical effects of marijuana, its compoenents and how you can use it to help stay healthy.
Naturopathy is a healthcare system that recognises the healing power of nature present in all living things. As a holistic system, it aims to promote and restore health by employing various natural treatment approaches that may include: naturopathic nutrition, lifestyle advice, hydrotherapy, physical therapy, naturopathic psychosocial support and other appropriate techniques. Naturopathic practitioners interpret presenting symptoms as the individual’s unique response to physical, emotional, environmental or genetic stress factors which can be identified by examining family medical history and various test results. The practitioner’s role is to identify underlying causes and to promote the inherent self-healing power within the individual. Naturopathy is also a way of life and the naturopath will help empower each individual through education about lifestyle, diet and exercise, and self-care. Naturopathic medicine and nutrition provide invaluable methods to identify the root causes of dysfunction in your body, the provision of essential nutrients to support life, and your ability to absorb them. Current research suggests that many of the common and chronic health conditions may be prevented and possibly reversed with a healthy diet and lifestyle, and stress management (e.g., mindfulness, gratefulness and journaling).He discusses diet, nutrition and their relationship with health both physical and mental.
We know that persuasion techniques occur in advertising but what is the role os soial media in persuasion? What is cuasing the diviseness in s,ociety? Joel Dimsdale, a psychiatrist with extensive experience in these areas, will discuss these issues as well as his two books, Dark Persuasion: A History of Brainwashing from Pavlov to Social Media and Anatomy of Malice: The Enigma of the Nazi War Criminals
Jason Christoff presents intricate knowledge about how the subconscious mind works and how it responds to suggested programming. Jason also reveals how to recognize and resist nefarious patterns of manipulation.
In our mental health, memory and intelligence are deteriorating. One in six children is now diagnosed with mental health issues, and anti-depressant prescriptions have sky rocketed. The incidence of Alzheimer’s and dementia, which are largely preventable, is on the rise. However, we can take action to stop this decline in its tracks.In Upgrade Your Brain, Patrick Holford, founder of the food for the Brain foundation, takes a deep dive into why this is happening and, more importantly, what you can do to improve your brain function. He unravels how and why our modern diet and lifestyle have inevitably led to this brain-health meltdown. More importantly, he discusses how turn these events around and improve brain health
There is a close connection between the psyche, the brain and the body. Some say that in reality they are one. Our bodies have an innate healing system. New German medicine (Germanische Heilkunde (GHK) is anchored in nature and the natural science in perfect harmony with other natural laws including spiritual laws. It allows us to know why the disease occurs. We can easily address chronic symptomsWith GNM/GHK we can identify the causes of sx, accurately predict their development and recognize symptoms that need healing. Andi will discuss this biological science which helps us view dis eases with a different viewpoint..
We don’t age in a linear way. Aging accelerates exponentially, and virtually all plans that simply focus on eating better, exercise, sleep, stress reduction, hormone replacement, and supplements are a linear strategy to an exponential problem. Dr. Gladden discusses his multifactor approach on how to become fit, strong, mentally sharp, and relationally replete Dr. Gladden discusses approaches in the fields of longevity, health, human performance, and life energy.
n our strives to be healthy, most of us are dieting. Yet, the conventional dieting approaches make our health worse, not better. Also, the conventional dieting approaches do not work. Have you noticed that most of the participants in The Biggest Loser TV reality Show gain their weight back. Why is that? While most of us are overweight, what can we do to become healthier? Obesity is a major health problem in the Western world. Not only is obesity embarrassing and demoralizing, it is unhealthy. Excess weight is accompanied by inflammation, oxidative stress , metabolic disorders, a path towards insulin resistance and chronic disease. It is life shortening. Conventional weight loss approaches include reducing caloric intake, GLP 1 agonists, and bariatric surgery. While these conventional weight loss strategies may have short term success, most times, the weight returns after the dieting stops. These conventional weight loss methods impair health and shorten lifespan. They result in muscle loss and a preferential loss of subcutaneous fat over the more harmful visceral fat (fat surrounding organs). Typically 25 % of weight loss in these conventional weight loss approaches is from loss of muscle mass. The muscle mass is necessary to keep our metabolic rate and the ability to burn calories at a good rate. The remaining visceral fat adversely affects triglyceride levels, HDL and small LDL levels, fasting glucose and insulin levels, blood pressure, c reactive protein and uric acid levels. The weight typically regained after the use of GLP 1 agonists and is nearly all fat, not muscle.Hence, our preoccupation with caloric restriction, GLP 1 agonists, and bariatric surgery we are not losing the harmful visceral fat and the weight returns with our muscle mass lessened. When visceral fat loss is targeted, glucose regulation, insulin resistance, and inflammation all improve. Lean muscle mass is preserved, there is faster weight loss and no weight regain. In order target harmful visceral fat loss, Dr. Davis recommends not cutting calories, reduce food that trigger blood glucose and inulin increases. He recommends addressing nutrient that influence insulin resistance. – magnesium, vitamin D, iodine/ thyroid and omega 3s. He recommends lactobacillus reuteri and high collagen peptides, hyaluronic acid, carotenoids especially astaxanthin.However there are some factors, lost in modern people that gives some control over weight and body composition. These include probiotics, collagen, hyaluronic acid and carotenoids.
Vanuatu is a small country in which its government stopped listening to its citizens but rather followed the dictates of the WHO. Citizens were frightened over the scourge of covid. The population was threatened with losing all societal privileges if they refused to get the vaccination. Yet, they did not have serious issues with covid which appeared like a flu, but there were serious side effects including death from the vaccines. Informed consent was violated as all requests concerning the contents of the vaccine were not answered. All information questioning the narrative was censored, People were threatened with the possibility of arrest if they spoke out against the narrative. Social media as well censored them. Their news media were paid to not publish anything regarding the danger of the vaxx. As they are a small country, they could easily see what was going on in their country They observed that WHO coopted their government and worked directly against the interests and the health of the citizens. Could this happen to the rest of the world?
Dr. Bjorndal will discuss a comprehensive naturopathic approach to mental health issues, rather than prescribe medications that have varying success, she takes a holistic approach. She embraces looking at root causes and provides insights that can help us all.
Most believe that curcumin, broccoli, onions and garlic are healthy. While that is true for some, it is not true for everyone. Teri has developed a system, based on many years of resolving complicated medical problems, based on three categories of poor absorption/ assimilation. She finds that the malabsorption of protein, fat and sulfur has become one of the biggest contributors to America’s collective current state of imbalance. With the help of genetics and patient symptoms, she tailers specific diets for people who fall into each (or a combination) of these categories. These patterns of malabsorption impact genetic expression, alter detoxification pathways and increase pathogenicity in our bodies. Learn about these patterns, how to identify them and about diets that will help each category.
Is death inevitable? In his book Death of Death with José Luis Cordeiro, David Wood postulates that the incontrovertible fact of death is no longer an absolute certainty. He believes that science and technology are preparing to tear down the final frontier: that of immortality. He provides insight intorecent exponential advances in artificial intelligence, tissue regeneration, stem cell treatment, organ printing, cryopreservation, and genetic therapies that, for the first time in human history, offer a realistic chance to solve the problem of the aging of the human body. Major developments, initiatives, and ideas for eternal life are discussed Such breakthroughs may slow down if not conquer the aging process.
The immune system naturally defends and repairs but when there is an immune burden then defense takes a back seat - “repair deficit” or inflammation, acute or chronic sets in. This is a well-recognized cause/amplifier of chronic, degenerative, and autoimmune conditions. When defense takes precedence over repair in the immune system, increased intestinal permeability intensifies the defense work in the immune system. Partially broken-down food remnants get through impaired intestinal walls and set the stage for host hospitality to chronic infection and/or autoimmune, chronic degenerative illness. Delayed or late-phase food and other chemical sensitivities can also contribute to chronic low-grade systemic inflammation. With the world coming out of a COVID stricken few years, we need to devote additional emphasis on the state of the immune system. There is so much information that has been disseminated about this that it is time to make sense of it all. Knowing which cells to look at and which high sensitive tests to look at, is vital and can make a difference. Adequate personalized intake of protective antioxidants and nutrients, guided lifestyle modifications and actions that target improved acid alkaline balance ( Nature's pHarmacy) further allows the innate immune system to flourish, fight the inflammatory state and restore repair, providing relief from “repair deficit”. - our main focus in helping folks thrive in the 21st Century !
Abnormalities such as kyphosis and scoliosis makes the skeleton look deformed. Doctors report there is nothing that can be done except surgery. However, on this show, we like to look at underlying causes to our health problems rather than addressing symptoms. How can we address the underlying cause of spinal deformities. In the past and even currently some chiropracters believe in pounding the spine back into place which is the worst thing one can do.
Schneider Self-Healing Method combines breathing, unique bodywork, movement and visualization techniques that can help anyone to become more aware of their own body and be empowered to take charge of their own healing. His method is effective to help people to see well (with or without glasses), get rid of computer stress syndrome, help overcome nearsightedness(myopia), teach to not need readers, prevent macular degeneration, glaucoma, cataracts, retinal detachment and others. Meir applied his Method of Self-Healing to help others who suffered from a wide range of degenerative conditions such as polio, muscular dystrophy and multiple sclerosis, in a natural way.
Through his methods, you can learn how you can improve your eyesight and how you can move better, prevent most illnesses with simple exercises. This can be done with simple exercises which can be entertaining and pleasurable. You will also learn how flexible your brain is and find new ways to bring out your body's resources in daily life. Other advantages of his methods include: • Reducing computer eyestrain • Overcoming the dependency on glasses • Improving joint mobility • Preventing all back problems • Getting rid of the nagging back pain • Overcoming headaches
There are many different aspects and modalities involved in healing. These each have their own form of assessment. For example, acupuncture has been used with success for centuries. James Reston shed light on acupuncture when he went to China and had surgery without aesthesia. In acupuncture , there is what is called the homunculus. This is a representation of the body found in a particular part of the body. For example, there are homunculi in the ear as used in auricular acupuncture, in the hands as used in Korean acupuncture, the scalp as used in Japanese acupuncture. We all have heard of reflexology where different areas are referred to different parts of the body.
The eyes appear to have similar connections. Iridology is the study of the iris which is the colored part of the eye. The iris tells the genetics and the health history of the body. Sclerology is the study of the sclera, the white part of the eye. The sclera changes quickly and indicates what is going on in the body presently. Have these methods had success? Are there research studies? How does this work? Why does it work? This podcast highlights information on the iris and the tongue that the listener can use to assess his current state of health.
Autoimmune diseaes are becoming increasingly prevalent affecting approximately ten percent of the population. In the US autoimmune diseases affect an estimated twenty-five million people. It is the fastest-growing category of disease. It can take decades between the start of this process and the time of an accurate diagnosis. Autoimmune diseases include: Hashimoto's Disease, type 1 diabetes, celiac disease, lupus and allergies.
Dr. Akil Palanisamy describes his TIGER protocol, which is an integrative treatment approach combining his work as a functional medcine practitioner with his training in Ayurveda (the tradional medicine of India). His five step protocol includes -removing toxins -healing infections -improving gut health -Eating right -Consciously resting and rebalancing.
His holistic approach is a guide for building up health, reducing the occurent of flare-ups, and attaining remission with a minimum of medications. With his approach you can feel better so you can live life to the fullesst. The tiger Protocol gives you the tools you need to start on the path toward healing and freedom
Hormones are intricately interconnected and affect all parts of the body. Balanced female hormones are essential for healthy bones, joints, heart and brain health. With an integrative approach, this podcast will discuss female hormones, menopause, and hormone replacement therapy.
Over 50 % of adults and children in some Western countries have chronic diseases. Prominent among these diseases are heart disease and cognitve decline. Dr. Goodenowe discuses measurment of health status and steps towards optimal health. Progress can be measured and the risks for chronic diseases can be reduced.
Plamalogens are a class of membrane glycerophospholipis and are a potential therapeutic target for neruodegenerative and cardiometabolic diseases. He will discuss this. Further information can be found at https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30974122/
Having adequate hormone levels is critical for practically everything! Hormones support sleep, mood, cognitive function, energy, libido, healthy arteries, and memory while diminished hormone levels can lead to weight gain, osteoporosis (muscle loss), diminished bladder control, and so much more.The body has an intricate symphony of hormones. Optimal hormone sex levels can reduce the risks for osteoporosis, heart disease, breast cancer and other diseases
Craig Lane, a successful healer will discuss health and how to progress on the road to optimal health. He will also discuss spirituality, and itr role in healing. The importance of being in the present and the role of the ego are integral parts of this process.
What is wokeism? Why are dissenting views stifled? Why has meritocracy been replaced with selecting people of colour and sexual preferences? Is this best for governance? Why is our energy independence, food supply being reduced? Why is the Netherlands destroying viable food producing land? Why are cow farts and gas stoves more dangerous than the toxic destruction in East Palestine, Ohio? Why are the toxic effects of electric car batteries and windmills being ignored? Why have the benefits of natural immunity been buried? Is anyone noticing this hypocrisy which is leading us to a totalitarian demise? Every path towards Communism has started with changing definitions. Kevin McGary, founder of Every Black Life Matters discusses these issues.
With an apparent golden youth, Eton, Oxford, brains, money and looks he appeared to be destined to a successful life. Yet for how many of us does life turn out as anticipated?He discusses his journey from being a mental patient with extreme anxiety to finding approaches that work for him. He believes mental health as practiced in some areas need to grow to incorporate other alternatives that are based in science. He looks at the Nervous system, which can be heavily influenced by attachment issues in youth. The nervous system can be over or underreactive and how such physiological states impact relationships, reactions and love. More important he explains what happens to our nervous systems as a result of past events and how to fix it
We have to eat, or we die. Yet foods probably kill most of us, at least in developed countries. Cows make milk for their calves. Pigs have piglets to maintain their species, not to feed us. Wheat grows seeds to maintain its species too. So do cabbages. These foods are not designed for us. We just have to find foods that keep us alive, even if the long-term consequences are less than ideal. Why do so many people die of coronary heart disease? The evidence is strong that the toxic sugar, galactose, in milk contributes to narrowed arteries, and the membrane of the fatty globules in cream contributes to blood clots. The solution is to eat hard cheese. Why do so many die of cancer. There is good evidence that fructose, a sugar in fruit, sugar cane, sugar beet, and high fructose corn syrup, enables cancer cells to form new cancer cells, to enlarge tumours, and to spread to other sites in the body. Sugars seem to play a part in multiple sclerosis as well. If you buy a car, there is a manual that tells you what fuel to use in that model. Unfortunately, babies are born without manuals, and parents don’t know what model of baby they have. Some people with food and chemical sensitivity take decades to find out what model they are. Foods are vital, but can cause us major problems, and even kill us. Poor food preparation, like inadequate cooking of meat or dried beans, or fast modern bread baking, cause trouble. So of course do additives in foods, especially when they are combined in one meal. Then there are pesticides in foods, often many pesticides in one food. Food may be mouldy. Food handlers may transmit infections via the foods they touch. Contaminated water may be used to wash foods. Food packaging may contaminate foods with aluminum or chemicals that leach from plastic. We survive as long as we do, because we have complex immune systems, and multiple ways of making chemicals safe. We have to find a way of working with our bodies, so as to have a happy and productive life. Learn about wise food choices
Castor oil has been used since 1550 BC. It has been used in Edgar Cayce remedies and used for detox, skin and hair care and as an adjunct in many medical conditions. Learn about its many uses in this podcast.
Haskap berries, known as honey berries in the USA, are berries that were used in traditional medicine by the Ainu people, that are high in nutrition. They were known as the “elixir of life”; botany-edible blue honeysuckle, or double berry. They contain three times the antioxidants and four times the anthocyanins of blueberries. They are high in Vitamin C and have great taste. Anthocyanins are associated with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, cardioprotective, neuroprotective and antidiabetic properties
Results showed improvements in cognition -word recall and recognition i.e. episodic memory effects- and diastolic blood pressure, with higher doses appearing more effective.) Other studies in athletes showed improved exercise endurance, and improvement in running times. Proposed mechanisms include decreasing exercise-induced inflammation and oxidative stress or improving vascular function and oxygen utilization or a combination of the three.

As a person valuing our planet, I have not turned my heat on since the 73 oil embargo except for guests (even in the snow and ice) and refused to use my air conditioning in the tropics although the US Embassy paid my utility bills. However, this question needs to be asked and is answered by today’s guest.
Some have said that the government can cause a problem and then come up with the solution. According to the documentary Something Ain’t Right, narrated by Kevin Sorbo, had the governments not censored doctors who were successfully treating covid at the early stages, 80 % of covid deaths could have been avoided. Had these doctors not been censored, it is likely that there would have been no lockdowns or mandates as the Emergency Use Authorization (EUA still in effect in the US?) could not have been evoked. An EUA can only be evoked if there are no available alternative treatments.
So is the premise of this broadcast conspiracy or reality?
Bestselling author and nutritional therapy expert, Julie Ross shares her strategy that has successfully helped thousands of overeaters at her clinics. She uses nutrients called amino acids to quickly restore natural appetite control and eradicate cravings for sugar, chips and pasta. With more than thirty years’ experience in the eating disorders and addiction fields, she understands why most of us can’t stick to a healthy diet. Our favourite treats are engineered to be addictive. Julia presents the truth on how we have been hooked to consume addictive foods and tells how we can eliminate our compulsions where they start -- in the brain. She uses amino acids to combat cravings and presents methods for determining which amino acids would be effective. She provides step by step instructions and provides customized plans with tracking tools and recipes.
The primary demand on our health system is the management of chronic diseases. Many of these chronic diseases involve the vasculature or blood vessels such as heart disease, strokes, kidney failure, diabetes, kidney failure, etc.
Renal failure is increasing in its prevalence. While filtration rate should be 100 %, the current system does not mark kidney function as poor until it drops below 60 %. We won’t have symptoms of renal difficulties until are filtration rate is 30 %. We can urinate regularly even when in phase 5 of kidney failure
Glycocalyx are hair like elements that line our blood vessels. The role of these hairs is to protect the blood vessel lining, serve as a gate keeper for oxygen, and to facilitate the release of nitric oxide which results in blood vessel dilation. They are the first site of damage in vessel disease. Studies have shown that improving the health of these vessels, can minimize spike protein damage, improve atherosclerosis and improve kidney function. This earliest damage to our blood vessels can be measured and effective approaches to reversing this damage are presented.
Dr. Braun who has studied counterterrorism was asked to investigate the SARS CoV2 vand extended his research to the content of the vaccines. What did he find? Are there toxic substances in the virus and the vaccine? How do these affect us? What can we do to optimize our health in the midst of these environmental challenges?
VAERs is a data system which tracks side effects from vaccines. Albert Benavides who has analyzed hospital data for decades has been following and evaluating the VAERs data and will share his results.
Proteins are the basic building blocks of the human body. But most people are malnourished in amino acids, which are required to form protein—a deficiency that can lead to diabetes, obesity, cancer, and chronic diseases. It’s a serious problem for which Dr. David Minkoff offers a powerful solution in The Search for the Perfect Protein.
A medical doctor and Ironman triathlete, Dr. Minkoff provides a new appreciation and understanding of these vital components of life and wellness. He examines the healthful or harmful effects of the foods you eat regularly. And he explores the importance of clean proteins in your diet while offering indispensable guidance on where to find them.
Not all proteins are created equal, and they’re not just for bodybuilders. Whether you’re female or male, young or old, an athlete or couch potato, The Search for the Perfect Protein will lead you to a stronger, healthier life
Wellness is not measured by laboratory values as these are calibrated against 95 % of a very sick population. Dr. Brownstein discusses how to move towards optimal wellness. His approach includes strengthening the immune system which it the body's first line of defense. Removing toxic elements are important as well. I addition to reducing exposure to toxins in the environment, he describes methods to detoxify which include sauna, sweating and exercise. To boost the immune system , he discusses the importance of vitamins such as vitamin A, vitamin C and vitamin D. Iodine is also important in out pathway towards health. Oxidative stress and its effects on inflammation is an additional crucial factor in wellness
Dr. Brownstein has written at least thirteen books on topics such as thyroid health, fats, healthy hormones, salt, healthy eating, statins, arthritis, vitamin B 12, gut health and ozone so he is one of America's most valued experts
Atherosclerosis is best known for causing myocardial infarction, but it is also the main cause of dementia. The common diseases of aging like hypertension, and diabetes are connected to atherosclerosis. I will explain what causes these diseases. The hope is that by understanding the diseases, people will be more motivated to improve their diet and lifestyle.
These diseases are poorly understood by most physicians, because the medical school textbooks are out of date. It is important to have a good theory of disease, because this guides prevention. When a person understands the actual causes of atherosclerosis and dementia. they are empowered to prevent these diseases.
Everyone has heard of the connection between atherosclerosis and cholesterol, but atherosclerosis actually begins as a blood clot. Everyone has heard of the connection between beta amyloid protein, and Alzheimer's disease, but the vascular theories are more helpful. The general concepts of disease causation also explain how atherosclerosis is connected to vision loss, hearing loss, back pain, arthritis, and cancer. These issues will be discussed.
Learn about naturopathy and ways we can heal. Dr. Plotner describes her path towards healing her family. Of primary importance is out diet. In many cases, individual supplements do not provide a balanced supplementation. An excess of vitamin D decreases vitamin A and vice versa. There are also such relationships between calcium and magnesium, omega 3 and omega 4 as well as between copper and zinc. Hence nutrition is best obtained through whole, organic foods rather than individual supplementation which can create imbalances
The importance of toxins such as excitotoxins, EMF, herbicides, bromide and in processed foods will also be discussed
The covid virus has changed many of our lives . According to Dr. Ealy, this is not a country; it is a crime scene - a crime scene build upon the greatest fraud in human history. Doctors have known from the beginning that vitamin D and vitamin C have saved lives. Yet doctors who commit the crime of successfully treating their patients have been prosecuted with attempts to take their licenses away.
The following questions are addressed. Can you be vaccinated and still counted as unvaccinated? How many confirmed break trough cases are there in the US? How did the CDC manipulate PCR to defraud the American people?
What can we do to protect ourselves and to hold the wrongdoers accountable? Dr. Ealy encourages folks to speak truth and ensure freedom is for all and freedom is forever.
Dr. Cabeca, the “girlfriend doctor” will share her insights how to optimize health in the female body. While many studies focus on men, the female body is different and changes with age. Learn how biohacks work different in women and how to use them for optimal health. There will be plenty of information for men as well when gender comparisons are made
On the path towards optimal health, it is important to find the underlying cause for a chronic ailment. One can support gut health, adrenal health, thyroid and hormones, but till not get to the primary cause of a chronic illness. Hormone optimization is not sufficient as unless deeper, upstream issues can be addressed. Further, deeper causes can include toxins, heavy metals and infections.
Also Dr. Pompa will discuss his book, Beyond Fasting: A cellular Solution to Break through Weight Loss Resistance, Slow aging and Get Well. His book recommends adapting the body to burn fats efficiently. In addition to intermittent fasting, and getting the body into ketosis, he recommends a variation in diets. Diet variation is essential for optimal health Thus, intermixed with paleo or other diets, there can be days of heavy healthy carbohydrates.
Cell phones, baby monitors, microwave ovens - are they a risk to our health. The answer is yes. These devices disrupt intercellular communication, open the gut barrier and open the brain blood barrier. EMF in addition to other toxins greatly contribute to the increase in chronic diseases seen in our population.
You will learn about EMF and what we can do to mitigate the EMF effects.
Also, you will be able to ask the speaker questions directly on the Silicon Valley Health Institute 10/27 zoom meeting at 10 am Pacific (California) time. (This ifro will be posted on www.SVHI.com
Dr. Asong has been a practicing GP in the UK National Health Service for years, and he will share tips on how to maintain your health and how to negotiate an at times cumbersome health service. His tips will enable you to take steps to investigate and improve your health issues and how to get the medical system to respond to your needs
EMF has adverse health effects including cancer. Hardell's studies show an association (perhaps causal) between cell phone and cordless phones and glioblastomas and acoustic neuromas. The American Toxicology study shows adverse effects after long term exposure to cell phone radiation: • Increased incidences of glioma (a rare, aggressive and highly malignant brain cancer) as well as schwannoma (a rare tumor of the nerve sheath) of the heart were found in both sexes of rats, but reached statistical significance only in males. • Increased incidences of rare, proliferative changes in glial cells of the brain and in Schwann cells (nerve sheath) in the heart of both sexes of rats, while not a single unexposed control animal developed these precancerous changes. • DNA damage was induced with both modulations of radiofrequency radiation (RFR) in both rats and mice (mixed results in tissues and brain regions). • Results from this study clearly show that biological impacts occur at low power, non- thermal exposures like those that take place from cell phones today.
Hugh Taylor (Yale) and also Suleyman Kaplan from Turkey performed independent studies showing that fetal rodent exposure to cell phones results in brain changes in the offspring particularly in the hippocampus There are simple answers for people to reduce their EMF exposures and therefore their lifetime cumulative buildup, as EMF radiations are cumulative, the same as x-ray radiation.
Since we are surrounded by electromagnetic field (EMF) radiation, and we are electromagnetic beings, it is imperative that we learn the broad scope of how our wireless world is creating havoc in every cell in our body. People are not feeling well, yet their symptoms are not in their doctors’ textbooks as this is a whole new phenomenon, with standard laboratory tests all coming back negative. What are healthy ways to mitigate EMF exposure.
The pandemic has affected almost everyone in the world. Not only were economies trashed but the US Constitution and Bill of Rights can no longer be relied on to protect us. There were available treatments that if they were not censored, could have saved many lives and avoided a large part of the economic devastation of the worldwide lockdowns. Yet, doctors all over the world were discouraged from using these treatments. Lawmakers who discussed it were censored and had scathing attacks in the media.
It is interesting that in April 2021, the US and Canadian government issues documents indicating that doctors who prescribed these treatments would be subject to prosecution and civil penalties. Around the same time, Australia promoted 6 month jail sentences for such doctors. What is going on? Dr. Alexander, and expert in these early treatments and who served as a COVID pandemic consultant for WHO-PAHO and for the Trump administration, will discuss better approaches for the COVID pandemic.
The covid pandemic has challenged the world and shone a light on our medical system. Pandemics require a multi prong approach including early treatment, preventive measures, hospitalization, and vaccines. Dr. McCullough, a renown cardiologist, internist and researcher on covid has examined each of these prongs. In his testimonies in the US Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs he reported that essential, effective, life savings treatments were suppressed. Following this thread, he explains the origins of the virus, how it spreads, and the validity of testing. He will address the question - are our government staffers serving us well? Has medicine been politicized with policies determined by staffers without the input from physicians who are on the front lines treating patients.? Also, he will discuss the origins of the vaccine and its effects .
The Frontline doctors are a group of physicians who have spoken out about early viable treatments for covid. While covid is a serious illness, the Frontline doctors report data that combination treatments including hydroxychloroquinine, ivermectin, vitamin C, vitamin D have helped many patients when they get covid. Yet, they were censored. Many doctors have successfully treated covid; why are they censored and threatened with punitive action from the Department of Justice?
Why is health information that can save lives censored? How does the public get this potentially life saving health information. How can we stay well in the current times? Dr. Barke will answer each of these questions
Women, under 45 years old, are seeing a 12% annual increase in invasive breast cancer throughout the United States. But nobody is talking about these numbers, or what could be causing this sharp uptick in breast cancer among women of childbearing age. Dr. Wadia-Ells discussed the adverse effects of birth control pills, hormone replacement drugs and fertility drugs. She also will discuss the importance of vitamin D and other supplements that help block cancer and balance hormones.Busting Breast Cancer: 7 Simple Steps Ebook Series • Birth Control Drugs: Learn the terrible truth • Vitamin D3: Take the best Busting Breast Cancer step under the sun • Seven Foods and Seven Supplements: Eat to help block cancer & balance hormones • When Fertility Drugs Lead to Motherless Children: Are there alternatives? • The Horrors of Hormone Replacement Drugs: How to safely replace them • Triple Negative Breast Cancer: Avoid three probable life-style causes • Thermography: Try this safe way to ID breast inflammation and hot spots
The 4/15/21 Department of Justice released the below regarding deceptive treatments of covid. Doctors and research has been censored. For example, the CEO of youtube stated she would only allow authoritative information and censor information on vitamin C and curcumin.
Vitamin C has stood the test of time. What is going on? Why is the public denied any healing information on covid other than the autoritative view
The COVID-19 Consumer Protection Act, passed by Congress in December 2020, prohibits deceptive acts or practices associated with the treatment, cure, prevention, mitigation or diagnosis of COVID-19. Persons who violate the COVID-19 Consumer Protection Act may be subject to civil penalties, injunctive relief and other remedies available under the FTC Act
Functional medicine is an approach to look at the underlying causes of health problems. Dr. Carter will discuss the importance of looking at underlying causes and steps we can all take to progress on the path towards optimal health
Medical diagnoses are actually artificial human-made terms. In reality, we all lie on health-disease continuums. When you cross a certain point on the continuum, you then suddenly have a disease. In this presentation, we discuss the consequences of this model within the context of the current healthy / sick model. We will discuss how to measure where you are on the: 1. “risk” continuum, 2. physiological continuum, 3. pathology continuum and 4. chronic disease continuum and how the measurements provide information on how to improve your placement on ALL the continuums. We will also present case studies that show how a broad range of diagnoses improve or disappear when following the recommendations derived from this continuum model.
EMF and 5G have adverse health effects. EMF opens the blood brain barrier, the gut barrier, and interferes with intercellular communication. There are associated with various cancers and are classified as a probable carcinogen by WHO. Learn about EMF, 5G and the steps you can take to improve your health.

Learn how stem cells can help improve some chronic diseases and how they can improve health.
Most of us are tethered to our cell phones. Texting, tweeting, and checking emails and checking facebook likes are the orders or the day. Some believe these habits become addictive. Corporations are designing ever more clever ways to get us hooked on these attention seeking smartphones. With the increasing number of teenage suicides, brain tumours, gambling addiction, chronic anxiety, cyber bullying, pornography on tap (literally, 'with one tap' of your digit) why aren't we admitting the part these smartphones have played in these side effects of digital addiction?
Karen realized her mobile phone was causing anxiety, dizziness, insomnia. She kept losing her balance, and realised that her sons were constantly distracted too. She describes her process where she abandoned her cell phone in search of sanity and to exact freedom from it. She describes this life enhancing process, the challenges, and the spiritual and relationship connectivity benefits
It is estimated that 350 million people worldwide are currently suffering from depression and that one in six people will be affected by a depressive disorder in their lifetime.
During a depressive episode, the hippocampus actually shrinks in size. Stress, poor diet and lifestyle can all accelerate this shrinkage. However, unusually for the brain, the hippocampus has the ability to regenerate itself–and to be able to regenerate the hippocampus, one has to eat healthy food, exercise and maintain rewarding social and environmental connections. Ray Griffiths discusses his book Depression: The Mind-Body Diet and Lifestyle Connection and will tell how to regenerate the hippocampus and minimize symptoms of depression and anxiety
The search for a vaccine for the covid virus has been underway for twenty years. Now there is a push to complete this within a short period of time.
There appear to be two extreme camps regarding vaccines. Is there any way to meet in the middle? What is needed for vaccines to be effective and healthy? Are patients with mitochondrial dysfunction more susceptible to the adjuvant ingredients placed in vaccines What does the research show?
Currently, we are raising the first generation of children who have been compromised at birth. Their immune system is compromised, and their ability to grow in an unimpeded way is also compromised. The rates of childhood chronic diseases is increasing. Beth will discuss why the current children's health is compromised and the role of toxins in this process
How do we stay healthy in the day of viruses? The CEO of youtube states they will censor information on vitamin C and Curcumin. What is the science behind their decision. Dr. Levy will discuss the role of oxidative stress (redox) in health and chronic and acute diseases, and gives advice on how to stay healthy and keep our immunity strong
Dr. Cahill is an expert in virology, has developed safe vaccines, and has expertise in the specificity of antibodies used in research and diagnostic assays. Learn about viruses, staying healthy the role of vitamin C, vitamin D, zinc, and hydroxychloroquine
There are many things we can do to maintain our health in the times of COVID-19. Steve will discuss many inexpensive approaches, backed by science, that can build our immunity
Many people who have the worst outcomes with viral infections appear to have underlying health problems - which are becoming more prevalent in the younger populations
Learn how to keep your immunity strong viz a viz viral infections.
While Bill Gates is promoting vaccines for 7 billion of the earth's inhabitants and WHO and Facebook are censoring information on Vovid 19, - self care and building up immunity is essential. Viruses have always been and always will be around us mutating regularly to provide continual health challenges. It is important to remain positive and take positive health steps rather than be buried in the stress of the massive fear concerning covid 19 Dr Friedlander compares the success of Sweden keeping its economy open to international lock downs
WARNING Governments , Congress, Facebook, Amazon have censored and not allowed discussions on how to make vaccines more effective in our national health armentarium. Listen to this at your own risk
Covid -19 is affecting our lives. The media sometimes presents data in a fear engendering manner. Headlines such as Hospitals Consider Do-Not-Resuscitate Order for All COVID-19.. make it essential that we build our immunity to prepare us for COVID 19 exposure and other diseases.
Wellness measures including vitamin C, Vitamin A, Vitamin D and Zinc are adjunctive measures we can add to our wellness regime. These and more are discussed in this interview
Viral tests miss up to 30 % of the persons with the corona virus. As persons with the corona virus are walking among us, it is important to build up our immunity and minimize any damage that might be caused by exposure . In this podcast, steps to avoid and minimize illness from COVID -19 and other viruses are discussed. Let's take steps to build our health to maximize our immunity and resistance to the corona virus and other medical conditions.
In our world with its increasing pace and stressors, relationship dynamics have changed. The changing gender roles both men and women require a new kind of emotional support that embraces greater authenticity, intimacy and personal expression.
We now have the opportunity to be ourselves as we never could before. We can embrace characteristics beyond those of the traditional gender roles. This allows for relationships with a more profound intimacy than ever before.
While our roles are changing, our biology remains very different. Men and women are different. We react to the changes in our roles in different ways that are often misinterpreted by our partners. John Gray details our new needs for emotional support as well as the added challenges that inevitably arise in modern relationships.
Learn about healthy aging. Health depends on many interdependent factors including inflammation, mitochondria and oxidative stress.Dr. Friedlander discusses many health hacks including: - collagen which is the only non inflammatory food. Collagen also double stem cell production. -A small dose of methyl Blue increases complex 4 and helps with the cytochrome oxidase enzyme increasing mitochondrial function. -recommendations for bone health
Dr. Greenblatt explains his integrative as well as a functional medicine approach to depression. This combines traditional medical science with nutritional and metabolic therapies. There are many contributing factors to depression including metabolic, physical illnesses, the immune system, hormones, genetics, and psychological factors such as stress. He looks at these factors as well as the uniqueness of each person’s metabolic and nutrition abnormalities that may contribute to depression.
This approach can successfully treat many individuals suffering from depression. This book offers hope and treatment models that are simple, safe, and effective. He has been using these therapies for more than thirty years and has seen thousands of patients improve and recover from depression
Nick Powell, a specialist in human optimization, discusses biohacking towards optimal health and exceptional performance. As described in his book Limitless, he synthesizes the research and programs and tells us how to biohack our way to optimal health. He discusses the role of sleep, diet, meditation and exercise. including strategies on. fasting, smart drugs, light therapy, Heart Rate Variability training, toxin exposure, cold therapy, ketogenic diets and time-efficient exercise
Doctor Cynthia Li shares the truth about her disabling autoimmune illness, the limitations of Western medicine, and her hard-won lessons on healing—mind, body, and spirit.
Li had it all: a successful career in medicine, a loving marriage, children on the horizon. But it all came crashing down when, after developing an autoimmune thyroid condition, mysterious symptoms began consuming her body. Test after test came back “within normal limits,” baffling her doctors—and baffling herself. Housebound with two young children, Li began a solo odyssey from her living room couch to find a way to heal. Patients with complex ailments often are dismissed as difficult. Dr. Li faced this harsh reality of a doctor-turned-”difficult patient”
Her book, Brave New Medicine details the physical and existential crisis that forces a young doctor to question her own medical training. She dives into the root causes of her illness, learning to unlock her body’s innate intelligence and wholeness.
Health Information is being censored at a rapid rate. Many health documentaries were removed from Amazon Prime reportedly at the request of California Congressman Adam Schiff. Facebook executives are telling Congress that they will censor health information as is desired. Google is burying health information making it extremely difficult to find. They indicate that they will bury information on GMO and alternative approaches to cancer at the same time the US is rapidly pushing GMO on the world
This host's film on nutrition The Big Secret was censored from Amazon Prime at the same time Congressman Schiff's request. . Health videos were censored from youtube (cited as spam), Accounts and websites were hacked as well (see more on Joseph Mercola's website 7/20/19)
Is this censorship a coincidence or is there an underlying agenda? Conspiracy expert Andy Thomas will elucidate why this censorship is taking place. Will the public wake up before it is too late?
Sally Fallon Morell discusses the Weston A Price Foundation which is a nonprofit, tax-exempt charity founded in 1999 to disseminate the research of nutrition pioneer Dr. Weston Price, whose studies of isolated non-industrialized peoples established the parameters of human health and determined the optimum characteristics of human diets. Dr. Price’s research demonstrated that humans achieve perfect physical form and perfect health generation after generation only when they consume nutrient-dense whole foods and the vital fat-soluble activators found exclusively in animal fats.
The Foundation is dedicated to restoring nutrient-dense foods to the human diet through education, research and activism. It supports a number of movements that contribute to this objective including accurate nutrition instruction, organic and biodynamic farming, pasture-feeding of livestock, community-supported farms, honest and informative labeling, prepared parenting and nurturing therapies.
Have you ever walked into a room and forgot why you walked into the room? Have you forgotten the name of a person? Are these normal? When do we need to worry about our memory?
Some of the above are considered normal and can be explained by distraction. Dr. Budson has evaluate thousands of persons concerned with their memory and shares his expertise. Tune in and learn about memory, when to be concerned and how we can improve our memory.
Provenza presents discusses the wisdom body, a wisdom that links flavor-feedback relationships at a cellular level with biochemically rich foods to meet the body’s nutritional and medicinal needs. What can we learn from animals' inner nutritional wisdom?
Animals, including humans, develop nutritional and medicinal memories in utero and early in life. This takes place at a cellular level as evidenced by Claire Sylvia and her book A Change of Heart. When she received a heart and lung transplant, she also received the taste preferences of the donor. Young children select foods containing nutrients that the individual needs. This nutritional wisdom concerning food preferences is lost as the child ages.
Has this inner nutritional wisdom been hijacked by nutritional “authorities”? Consumers eager for a “quick fix” have empowered the multi-billion-dollar-a-year supplement industry, but is taking supplements and enriching and fortifying foods helping us, or is it hurting us?
“I don’t feel like myself ” is a common complaint from women suffering a hormone balance in Dr. Cabeca’s office. They suffer wild mood swings: Irritable and snappy in the morning, depressed when the workday ends, and then anxious as bedtime approaches. Happiness rarely comes, and they can’t recall the last time they felt exuberant joy or bliss. But when it comes to your mood, willpower and determination don’t cut it. Your hormones run the show. They’ll take your emotions wherever they see fit, often at the expense of your health and happiness
. One physician told one of her patients “it’s just normal for women your age to feel this way.” Well, while it may be “normal” it’s not ok and can be fixed! Dr. Cabeca offers a far better solution that doesn’t require prescription drugs, powering through negative emotions, or any sort of emotional struggle. Starting at the end of your fork she shows how to fix these imbalances to feel better fast.
People used to believe that infection is a killer of the past. This is incorrect because research shows that our big killers from cancers, diabetes, heart disease and dementia are largely infection driven. It is difficult to find a pathology that does not have an associated infection. Many viral infections can be stealth, hidden from our awareness and create immunological havoc. Microbes in the fermenting gut drive gut tumours, psychiatric disease and arthritis.
Sarah Myhill ,MD, is a genius at putting the tools for recovery into the hands of the patient. She discusses her latest book, ‘The Infection Game’ and the role of microbes, mitochondria, diet and rest in healing. A healthy endocrine function is essential to winning the aeons long battle between humanity and all those bugs that regards us as lunch.
Modern life exposes us to chemicals that may be subtly or profoundly impacting our health. We absorb toxins in what we eat and drink, the products we put on our skin, and what we surround ourselves with in our homes. Learn about the toxins we put in us in our food, the toxins we put on use, and the chemicals that surround us. The cumulative effect of these toxins, which include glyphosate, EMF, and the toxins we put in and on our bodies is a contributing factor to the rise of chronic diseases in adults and in children
Sick has become the new normal as the numbers of chronically ill adults and children is increasing. Bioregulatory Medicine offers an introduction to the most comprehensive medical model for personalized medicine and the prevention and treatment of chronic and degenerative illness. In direct contrast to the mainstream allopathic medical approaches in the US, bioregulatory medicine, which is well-established in Europe, views health as much more than an absence of symptoms or disease. Rather, good health is defined as a mode of being comfortable, balanced, mindful and happy.
Using a sophisticated synthesis of the very best natural medicine with modern advances in technology, bioregulatory medicine addresses the four pillars of health - drainage and detox, diet, mind-body medicine and oral health - in order to treat the root causes of disease and enable the body's innate ability to heal.
Why are there epidemics of degenerative diseases in the Western World? Diet, nutrition and life style choices play a large part in degenerative diseases and in our health
Dr. Campbell-McBride developed the GAPs diet which has helped in many chronic diseases. She discusses different diets including vegetarian, GAPs, low fat diets. Studies indicate that eating animal fat is not related to heart attacks and that cholesterol may not be related to heart disease. Studies also show it is impossible to reduce blood cholesterol or the death rate from low fat, low cholesterol diets. She will compare the benefits of many different diets
It is often said that naturopathy is the medicine that doctors have forgotten, by remembering a time when identified condition could not be treated with a complex drug cocktail (because that cocktail did not exist) we can look in the light of modern anatomy physiology biochemistry and haematology at what the physicians at that point did do and interpret this into a more modern context.
There seems to be a group of key nutrients that are fundamental to virtually everyone of the modern ill-health scenarios that naturopathic physicians and doctors are confronted with. In the same manner there are a couple of diets that seem to be 'ground zero diets' in the same way they have a massive sphere of influence that crosses multiple conditions. It is not the miraculous nature of these diets that causes change it's a fact of these diets do some fairly straightforward things, they reduce inflammation, balance insulin levels, and reduce blood sugar. Roderick shares his wisdom.
Jeffrey Smith, the leading consumer advocate promoting healthier non-GMO choices, discusses the health risks and politics behind genetically modified foods and the herbicide, glyphosate which is found in round-up.
He discusses his latest film, Secret Ingredients, which include compelling stories of improved health when a person switches to an organic diet.
In this episode you will learn about genetically modified foods, herbicides such as glyphosate, and their health effects
The new book, Embrace the Sun, recommends non-burning sun exposure, citing research on sun exposure, vitamin D, and disease risk. Dr. Grant and his co-author claim that sun avoidance may be nearly as hazardous to health as cigarette smoking! Will there soon be a Surgeon General’s warning about staying indoors or putting on too much sunscreen?
Dr. Grant discusses the evidence that sunlight can promote weight loss, reduce depression, and profoundly decrease the risk of today’s common diseases including most cancers, heart disease, autism, diabetes, osteoporosis, multiple sclerosis, infertility, preterm birth and psoriasis.
Research shows that wireless radiation such as from cell phone can result in brain cancer (Hardell), brain changed in the brain (hippocampus) of the offspring (Kaplan Suleyman). Wi fi disrupts inter-cellular communication, opens the blood brain barrier and the intestinal lining) leading to every disease imaginable. It affects human ovaries and sperm so some predict that human reproduction will stop within a few generations.
5 G and the internet of things takes this one step further with very low frequencies that disrupts many bodily functions. The US military has been researching this for years and has developed uses for crowd control (active denial) and transmitting frequencies to any targeted individual to create any desired disease. It also can be used for surveillance. Ms Pu sees this as a race between those of us who wish to preserve the human race vs those who want to make a quick profit before they are inundated with law suits as happened with the tobacco industry.
Join Luis Arrondo, DC, as he discusses the hidden connections between health, illness, and well-being as revealed in his book “Wolves, Gardens, and Chocolate.” Through a deep understanding of the interconnection between our tissues, organs, mind and life experiences, we can break through obesity issues, and many chronic illnesses,
Based on over 20 years of clinical experiences with patients and as well as extensive medical research, he outlines connections between our molecular, biomechanical, psychological as well as spiritual dynamics. Learn how these are intertwined in ways that can help us to move beyond frustrating barriers to chronic health issues.
He describes his approach to weight loss as “Fix the body to fix the fat” Through his multifactorial approach which involves finding the cause underlying conditions, his patients have achieved sustained weight loss without hunger or discomfort. He also teaches them how to lose weight by eating chocolate – twice a day
We've all experienced brain fog?misplaced keys, forgotten facts, a general feeling of just feeling off. Many of us will experience that fog manifesting as something more permanent?either in ourselves or our loved ones. Cognitive decline can be caused by many contributing factors including toxins, inflammation, autoimmune conditions, food sensitivities, EMF, diet, and foods as simple as gluten, dairy, sugar, genetically modified foods,
Dr.Tom O'Bryan discusses his new book, You Can Fix Your Brain in which sets out an easy step by step approach to negotiate this very complex area. Included are self assessments on cognitive status, recommended tests, and positive steps that will make an immediate difference in our brains' vitality, clarity and energy. He will show how to improve memory, clarity and to create lasting changes in health.
Following his adage, fix your body, fix your brain, he will show how one hour a week will result in a sharper mind within six months.
Dr. Vallianatos will discuss his book Poison Spring which documents in detail the EPA's corruption and misuses of science and public trust. In its half century of existence, the EPA has repeatedly reinforced the chemical industrial complex by endorsing deadly chemicals, botching field investigations and turning a blind eye to toxic disasters and swallowing the claims of the industry. Come find out from an EPA insider about how the EPA has allowed our lands and waters to be poisoned with more toxic chemicals than ever.
He relates how the EPA continually side with agribusiness over the health of the citizens. He discusses how pesticide studies relied on a laboratory that was known to be inadequate without the ability to perform the studies on which agribusiness based the safety of their products
Since the early 1980s, the number of vaccines given to children has nearly quadrupled, and the autism rate has gone up more than 30,000 percent during the same period. For American children, the current autism rate is 1 in 36. JB Handley challenges the common framing that vaccines are “safe and effective” and that the “science is settled. He discusses the emerging scientific evidence linking vaccines to immune activation in the brain. He calls for the American public health to acknowledge the adverse effects associated with vaccines and advocates for screening vulnerable children so that the children with the greatest risk for vaccine associated harm can be excused from taking the vaccine
SIBO is a common GI problem throughout the world. Many of us have it but don't know they have it. Symptoms can include bloating, diarrhea, constipation pain, burping, flatulance, fatigue, food sensitivities, depression, anxiety, and it can result in a leaky gut. SIBO is caused by bacteria that are normally in the large intestine to be dislocated in the small intestine. There are many causes including protein pump inhibitors (antacids ). Fifty percent of PPI users have SIBO after one year) Risk factors that increase the chances of getting SIBO include drugs, stress, genentics and surgeries. The program will discuss how to diagnose SIBO, how to live with SIBO, how to repair the damage, and recommended diets.
Over the past 50 years, rates of chronic illness, learning disabilities, and allergies in children have exploded--1 in 6 children has a diagnosed learning disorder, 1 in 50 has autism attributes these rising numbers to the US current vaccination policy.
In his new book, Vaccines, Auto-Immunity, and the Assault on Childhood, Dr. Cowan shows how childhood illnesses, which help children to develop a robust immune system. With vaccines, the development of natural immunity is not supported. In addition, vaccines contain adjuvants which are toxic substances. Dr. Cowan discusses how the increasing array of vaccinations can have adverse effects on children's health. He advocates a balanced dialogue on these issues.
Cavin's approach to repairing his brain is relevant for us all. Most of us unknowingly have brain damage either from unrecognized traumatic injuries or from the onslaught of toxins from the environment some of which open the protective blood brain barrier which protects us from toxin induced brain injuries.
His recommendations for brain health include
-focusing on gut health -an organic diet, -healthy oils (avoiding vegetable and hydrogenated oils) -eating plenty of fruits, vegetables including leafy greens, and sulfur containing substances. -superfoods including organ meats, fermented foods, sea vegetables, and cold water fatty fish. -choline found in organ meats and egg yolks, -DHA found in cold water fish, vega DHA, and liquid fish oil, and -uridine found in organ meats and broccoli -low carb intake -no grains, processed foods, -careful attention to food and product labels. -avoiding toxins in beauty and cleaning products, -monitoring blood sugar levels,
Sarah Myhill, MD gives tips on how to reverse chronic diseases and to maintain optimal health. The simplicity of her advice is advice we can all follow with or without a primary provider. She has helped many people with her approach to address the factors that lead to chronic disease.
As the gut is instrumental in the rotation of chronic ideates, she recommends a ketogenic diet along with vitamin C until bowel tolerance to reduce unhealthy bacteria in the small intestine. An organic diet with sufficient vitamin D. She then gives tips on how to fine tune thyroid and adrenal functions.
In addition she discusses how we can assess and how to get rid of the toxins that interfere with the healing process.
Dr. D'Agostino discusses mechanics and benefits of the ketogenic diet. Ketosis has many health benefits including increasing insulin sensitivity, enhancing brain metabolism, decreasing reactive oxygen species, spurring on mitochondrial biogenesis, and improvement of many health conditions. Ketosis is not to be confused with the Atkins Diet as the ketogenic diet does not recommend a high amount of protein as high protein levels lead to sugar spikes and an increase in insulin levels which many experts believe leads to the pathway of chronic diseases. One does not need to be in ketosis all the time in order to get its benefits. Periodic ketosis can be aided with certain dietary tricks such as MCT oils, bulletproof coffee.
Ketosis has been shown to help with cancer and neurodegenerative diseases such as seizures, ALzheimer's disease.
Mitochondria are essential for health and longevity. They are the place where energy is generated and they control the elimination of damaged cells in a process called apoptosis. When energy is not produced, function of organs and body systems slows until they break down. IF damaged cells are not eliminated, then the remnant damaged cells get in the way of body functions and cause inflammation and oxidative stress which in turn contribute to most chronic diseases. Learn how to protect these vital organisms.
Most people have cult dental infections which they are not aware of. Dr. Levy describes how these infections cause many chronic diseases including strokes, cardiovascular disease, pulmonary disease and arthritis. Root canals, implants and tooth extraction are typically sources of infections
Other toxins which causes disease are fluoride and mercury both of which dentists gleefully put into our mouths.
The endocrine system is like a symphony coordinating health. Dr. Dale will discuss her the keys to health and hormone balance. She will discuss the causes for a breakdown in the endocrine system including a weakened immunity, dental conditions, an imbalanced nervous system, neurotransmitter imbalances, diet and life style and scar conditions. She will discuss how these imbalances can be restored towards optimal wellness.
Toxins are a major contributor to inflammation, oxidative stress and disease. Fluoride and mercury are biohazards and toxins that create serious health problems. Fluoride may help a tooth when fluoride comes uno contact with the tooth, but fluoride leads into contact with a tooth, but does harm to the body and has been blamed for lowering IQs by five or six points. Fluoride has been found in our food including Wheeties and fruit loops.
Mercury, self also causes inflammation and serious health problems. Simply brushing teeth or a dental exam cause mercury vapors to go into the body and brain. Learn more about these issues from Dr, Kennedy. He also will discuss how to remove mercury from the body.
There are many toxins in our environment each of which act synergistically to compromise health. These toxins include glyphosate, GMOs, fluoride, EMF, and aspartane. The US Government not regulate these or protect the public, but supported putting these into the environment. For example, in 1996, Congress passed a law stating that cell tower placement could not be altered for health reasons. Cell tower radiation not only has adverse health effects but now has the capability to snoop into every home and to inject energy used in crowd control. John discusses aspartane. Although the US Government sued the manufacturer for hiding the cancer causing properties, the FDA this cancer causing substance for the food supply. The FDA also touted genetically modified foods to be totally safe although several FDA scientists advised against putting GMO onto the market. John Kamin will discuss this theme as it applies to genetically modified foods and glyphosate.
What’s Making Our Children Sick? is a radical rethinking of the relationships between our children’s food, medicine, and health in the twenty-first century. Michelle Perro, MD, a veteran pediatrician with over 35 years experience successfully treating children, and Vincanne Adams, PhD, from the University of California, provide a clinical and scientifically sound explanation of the pediatric health crisis the agrochemical industry has helped to create, and present a food-focused, go-to resource for parents, practitioners, and health educators to follow. This book explores the links between GM foods, pesticides like glyphosate, and the emerging science around our gut health and offers a path forward to help heal our kids and reverse the compromised health of our food supply. Also discussed are other toxins such as EMF, aspartane, and the need for a medical model that looks for underling causes of medical conditions.
Why does the US spend so much more on health care than any other country, with so little to show for it? While agrobusiness denies that GMO or glyphosate have any adverse effects, research shows otherwise. . Research shows that both GMO and glyphosate have adverse health effects.
Dr Seneff posits that the US population is being chronically poisoned by a toxic chemical, glyphosate, that is pervasive in the food supply. Glyphosate is the active ingredient in the herbicide, Roundup. Because the government falsely believes that glyphosate is nearly harmless to humans, they have been very careless in monitoring it and have allowed it to permeate not only the food and water supply but also cotton products like Tampons, sterile cotton gauze, etc. Dr Seneff believes that glyphosate is the main contributor to the epidemic of debilitating diseases.
Other toxins can individually can lead to illness, but combined these toxins make a toxic soup and act synergistically.
People are living longer lives than in the past. With the aging of the baby boomers, the percentage of people older than sixty- five will comprise more than 22 % of the population by 2030. Unfortunately, age-associated chronic diseases and conditions are increasing just as fast.
It is not likely that there will be a single scientific breakthrough that will extend our life expectancies. Rather Dr. Giuliano believes that life extension will be through a series of small steps including small hermetic challenges to positively tweak our metabolic functioning in a positive direction One such tweak is caloric restriction, intermittent fasting. Others include small exposures to other stressful situation such as cold and exercise
Anti-aging science is big business, with billions of dollars being poured into pharmaceutical and technological approaches. However, there are natural and nutritional means protect health, increase longevity, slow aging processes and even reverse the damage. Spices are real superstars on this stage. From helping prevent plaque in your arteries, cooling chronic inflammation, supporting digestion, easing aching joints, protecting DNA, supporting insulin sensitivity, protecting tissues from cross-linking, preventing tumor growth, stabilizing cellular membranes, clearing extracellular junk, aiding cellular renewal through apoptosis, to thinning
Palmer and Miguel are two extraordinary individuals who cured their own MS (Multiple Sclerosis) after all the neurologists told them that their condition was incurable. Miguel was confined to a wheel chair, and Palmer appeared to be headed toward a similar place. Though well proven scientific proven approaches including meditation and self examination, they both proved all the neurologists wrong and no longer have multiple sclerosis or any associated symptoms
Listen to learn how they cured their MS.
The vital force (called Chi by the Chinese, Ki y the Japanese, Prana by the Hindus and the breath of God by Hebrews and Christians) is vital energy which starts at conception.
This life force can be seen as general vitality or simply vibration. Vital force, mitochondrial energy, and vibrations are all connected. A person’s vital force or vibration increases or decreases based on mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual choices. The better the choices, the higher the vibration or your vital force energy and the stronger and healthier you become. In this show, Dr. Sinatra discusses how to raise anyhow to avoid lowering or vibrational energies
The words, body language and intention of communication can affect healing and our relationships. Communication imparts information that affects the listener's mood and can impact the nervous systems of both the speaker and the listener for better or worst. This interconnection has been neurolinguistic.
Utilizing neuroscience and the Mind-Body Connection, verbal and non-verbal influences on communication and health will be discussed.
Glutathione is the mother of all antioxidants. Every plant and animal uses glutathione which is crucial in antioxidant defenses, detoxification and the optimal functioning of the immune system. Glutathione also is essential I'm making vitamin B 12.
Low glutathione can worsen heart disease, multiple chemical sensitivity, asthma and neurodegenerative diseases
Dr. Guilford discusses the importance of glutathione, the conditions that deplete glutathione and how to raise glutathione levels.
Health maintenance requires more than exercise and a healthy diet. Stress reduction, mindfulness and humor are important additions for optimal health.
Norman Cousins cured his debilitating autoimmune diseases with the help of laughter. Laughter increases endorphins, oxytocin and can burn calories to assist in weight reduction. Laughter can reduce anxiety, depression, stress, as well as reducing blood glucose levels, pain perception, and the risk for heart attacks.
Learn about humor, how it affects our brain and physiology and its health benefits.
In 2006, her youngest child was diagnosed with autism. Through her research, Katherine determined that certain foods common in the Western diet were associated with her daughter’s autistic behaviors. Seeing the profound effect of diet on the brain with many of her clients, she has become a provocateur questioning medical approaches and food manufacturing practices relating to health.
Katherine will discuss how food drive behavior and how it impacts our brains. In particular, she will discuss glutamate and its affect on our health.
Hypnosis creates a state of aroused attentive concentration with a relative constriction of peripheral awareness. With controlled thinking suspended, hypnosis is to consciousness as what looking though a telephoto lens is to a camera.
It is an effective method for managing pain, and treating anxiety and stress-related disorders. Past studies have shown that people hypnotized before operative care have a shorter procedure time and a significant reduction in intraprocedural complications, such as hypoxemia and vomiting
The mind and body are intimately connected. With suggestions to change perceptions of pain and color, this passively received language, altered activity in he brain where uncontrolled perception occur.
his show will discuss hypnosis, hypnotizability and the amazing interconnect between the mind and the body.
Toxins are a major contributor to most chronic diseases. In history, there is the example of Mad Hatters Disease caused by mercury, and the fall of the Roman Empire has been attributed to lead poisoning. In 2010 there were 80,000 chemicals on the market. Very few of these were tested for safety. The exposure to toxins starts at an early age. Babies have been found with up to 200 chemicals in them before birth. Each year 6.5 billion pounds of chemicals are dumped into the air.
These toxins have an adverse effect on our health and on our metabolic pathways. They can clog the liver, block insulin receptor sites, damage genes, undermine DNA repair and recovery, contribute to inflammation blood sugar problems, mitochondrial disorders, immune issues, and hormonal imbalances. Children are particularly susceptible during the window during which the brain forms and the interconnecting neurons develop.
Dr. Raji discusses the leading edge of quantitative neuroimaging volumetrics - the measurement of brain volumes from magnetic resonance images. Volume is a vital sign for the brain. When volumes are normal, this correlates to normal neuronal function. Reduction of brain volumes is seen with various neuropsychiatric disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, depression, and traumatic brain injury. What Dr. Raji's research has shown over the past 10 years is that brain volumes can actually change in relation to lifestyle choices from obesity to physical activity to dietary choices. This work has a tremendous impact on prevention of cognitive decline and preservation of brain health. His talk will overview these key points while presenting a framework for future growth of this new perspective in medicine.
What Dr. Raji's research has shown over the past 10 years is that brain volumes can actually change in relation to lifestyle choices from obesity to physical activity to dietary choices.
Dr. Lustig, a pioneer in studying the adverse health effects of sugar and high fructose corn syrup, describes how Big Business uses the science of addiction to keep us hooked to unhealthy foods. The result is that our health suffers. He discusses how marketing and the media subvert brain physiology to their advantage to veer us from the pursuit of happiness to the pursuit of pleasure (which means profit)
Chronic pain affects over 100 million US adults and 20 percent of children worldwide. Each year, Americans spend billions of dollar on medications, surgery and therapies in a quest to find relief - often leading to more suffering and hopelessness. Chronic pain is complex. It changes brain chemistry and can cause a loss of grey matter. Women and men process pain in different parts of the brain and consequently experience pain differently.
Dr. Christo explains the complex nature of pain and provides a wide range of tools and techniques scientifically proven to help patients control and defeat it.
Chris' new book, Unconventional Medicine. The world is facing the greatest healthcare crisis it has ever seen. Chronic disease is shortening our lifespan, destroying our quality of life, bankrupting governments, and threatening the health of future generations. Sadly, conventional medicine, with its focus on managing symptoms, has failed to address this challenge. The result is burned-out physicians, a sicker population, and a broken healthcare system.
Chris Kresser, as detailed in his new book Unconventional Medicine, presents a plan to reverse this dangerous trend. He shows how the combination of a genetically aligned, ancestral diet and lifestyle, Functional Medicine, and a lean, collaborative practice model can create a system that better serves the needs of both patients and practitioners.
The epidemic of chronic illness can be stopped, if patients and practitioners can adapt.
Based on the mounting evidence supporting the benefits of ketogenic diet therapies, Dr. Kalamian gives information and guidance on how the ketogenic diet fits into the new paradigm of metabolic therapies for cancer. She is driven by her passion from her own positive experience in using the ketogenic diet for her young son (who had cancer),
Beyond starving cancer cells, she describes the impact that the diet has on the metabolism of cancer cells. More importantly, she discusses the nuts and bolts of adopting the ketogenic diet and how to incorporate it into one’s lifestyle. The benefits of other diets and forms of fasting are discussed`
Diabetes is a world wide epidemic affecting an estimated 422 million people. In the United States, one in three Americans is either diabetic or prediabetic costing an annual $242 billion in medical treatments. Dr. Morstein describes how people with both type 1 and type 2 diabetes, can gain and maintain excellent control of blood sugar levels while living full, active, enjoyable lives. Her goal is to empower readers to take control of and manage this challenging condition.
She discusses her comprehensive, integrative approach for treatment, prevention and possibly reversal of diabetes. She discusses her approach which includes Eight Essentials® of treatment and prevention. These Eight Essentials include: a low-carb diet; exercise; good sleep; stress management; healing the gut and microbiome; environmental detoxification; supplementation; and medications.
Fibromyalgia affects many people and is often confused with other medical conditions. As it is often misdiagnosed, it often does not get appropriate treatment leading to the frustration of fibromyalgia patients.
Dr. Brady discusses his multi-prong approach to finding the underlying causes and comorbid conditions. He addresses toxins and detoxification: the role of gut health, mitochondrial dysfunction, thyroid health, diet, mood, sleep, stress, and stress reduction.
Dr. Smith will discuss allergies and the many contributing factors. She will discuss the contributing factors and underlying triggers. The role of diet, the microbiome, theenvironment and toxins will be addressed. Also covered will be food intolerances, allergic sinusitis, asthma, skin conditions, and steps we can take to reduce the adverse effects of these conditions.
The phytobiome, the environment including soil organisms and its link to plants, is a new area of research. The phytobiome has indirect and direct connections to gut health, a healthy microbiome, and over all health. Soil organisms have an impact on human gut microbes which are essential for human health.
With current farming practices, the soil nutrients have been depleted leading to less nutritious food. Dr. Ash discusses how a healthy phytobiome affects health and how healthy fertilizers can increase soi biodiversity, plant diversity and have many beneftis to health.
With today's era of rampant food allergies, gluten free popularity and the rise of paleo eating, putting together a meal that will satisfy eveyone is easier said than done. Dianna describes how to do this to please everyone at the table. Lean how to turn some of our greatest comfort foods into healthy, paleo delicious treats.
Electromagnetic fields are one of the many environmental toxins that adversely affect our health. It affects all of us to varying degrees. It leads to mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, DNA damage, immune disturbances and both a leaky gut and leaky blood brain barrier. Research studies showed that cell phones and cordless phones increase the risk of the brain tumours - gliomas and acoustic neuromas.
A pregnant mother's use of cell phones can change the brain structure of the offspring leading to increased anxiety, hyperactivity and impaired memory in the offspring.
Guy will discuss his experiences as an electro sensitive person and his research which has resulted in ways that we can protect ourselves.
David Wood posits that there is a 50 % chance that, by the year 2040, rejuvenation therapies will be widely available that will allow all of us to remain youthful indefinitely. As the results of ten years of research and his commitment to futurist and technoprogressive topics, David Wood discusses the possibility of a radical extension of human longevity and the reversal of the aging process. He discussed the technical feasibility of the abolition of aging as well as the clash of paradigms: accepting-aging vs. anticipating rejuvenation.
Every year, 12 million Americans have negative reactions to the food they eat – of which, 30,000 of them will have to see medical attention some reactions are food ALLERGIES like nut or fish allergies and they are pretty easy to diagnose.
Food SENSITIVITIES, on the other hand, are much more complicated and often go undiagnosed. Food sensitivities can lead to chronic conditions such as migraines, eczema, arthritis, obesity, weight gain, Crohn’s disease and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), depression and chronic fatigue.
Symptoms can occur several hours, or even days after exposure making it extremely difficult to pinpoint the cause. The delay between exposure and symptoms makes the Alcat Test an invaluable tool to identify reactive foods and substances.
Occult infections are risk factors for various diseases including heart disease and autoimmune disease. Bacterial, viral and parasite infections may be major contributors to autoimmune disease. In this program you will learn how to identify occult infections, to identify which infections are feeling autoimmune diseases and how to minimise the adverse effects of these infections.
The global burden of dementia is staggering—it is a trillion dollar problem—and it is growing. Of the currently living Americans, about 45 million will die with Alzheimer’s disease (about 15% of the population). 75 million have the important genetic risk factor, ApoE4. Cognitive decline associated with Alzheimer’s disease and its precursors (MCI and SCI) can be prevented and reversed. The optimal approach for complex chronic illnesses such as Alzheimer’s disease is not a mono therapy but a personalized program that addresses all of the contributors. The many cases of Alzheimer’s disease are associated with metabolic and hormone abnormalities and exposures to pathogens including viruses, bacteria, metabolic and olds and mycotoxins, Dr. Bredesen has reversed cognitive decline in several hundred people on his personalized protocol, with unprecedented success. His book, The End of Alzheimer’s: the first program to prevent and reverse cognitive decline comes out on August 22, .
Each human being has unique biochemistry which results in diverse nutritional needs. Individuals may be deficient in certain nutrients and overloaded in others. Advances in epigenetic science have sealed the powerful impact of nutrients on gene expression and have enabled improved treatment for mental disorders.
Neurotransmitters, which are instrumental in mental disorders, appear to be epigenetic in absorption , metabolism and storage of key nutrients. For example we now understand that methionine and SAMe act as serotonin reuptake inhibitors, and folates and niacinamide depress neurotransmission at dopamine receptors. For the first time we are able to adjust gene expression of enzymes that may be a improper levels.
Dr. Walsh has accumulated a data base of over 10,000 patients and shares his nutrient supplementation to patients with mental conditions such depression, schizophrenia, autism and Alzheimer's Disease
Most experts say that diet and gut health (the micro biome) are essential to health. How do we insure that our gut is healthy? Jeannette Hyde in her recent book, The Gut Makeover, lays out the easy steps to get the listener on the road to gut health. Jeannette discussed her book and shares the results of her research on diet and its connection to health.
We have learned a lot about nutrition for humans and the importance of organic non processed foods. Is it any different for our four legged friends?
Why give real food to dogs when you can always open a bag or can? The reason is dogs are real live beings and they need real food. We would never think of only feeding our children out of a bag or a can for the rest of their life.. and certainly not the same foods day in and day out. It’s just common sense.
Dogs have lived with humans for at least 40,000 years, some experts think much longer. And these dogs have been eating the same foods as humans for that long. It was only about 100 years ago that big food companies realized how much money they could make with their manufactured food waste.
ADHD in increasing in our society. It is not a disease, a behavioural disorder or a discipline problem. It is a medical disorder in which genetic, neurological, nutritional & environmental factors imbalance the brain causing imbalanced behaviour. The current conventional treatment are medications and behavioural therapy. In his book Finally Focused, Dr Greenblatt clearly describes a sip-by-stp approach to minimise symptoms and unleashes potential.
Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM) is changing the way physicians and patients think about treatment options for pain and many other medical conditions. Exciting data and 20 years of clinical evidence show how frequencies and resonance can be used instead of medications, nutrients and chemical interactions to change tissues and symptoms. The new book, The Resonance Effect, describes how FSM was discovered and developed, how it's changing medicine and how you can use resonance to change lives, including your own.
If you find the unwanted weeds growing in your back yard annoying, you may be missing out on a free lunch. These pesky weeds may contain more nutrition that you will find at the grocery store. These unwanted intruders are rich in antioxidants, vitamins and protein . Beryl will explain the healing properties of common weeds and how you can make tinctures, soups and meals with the weeds in your back yard.
Although it purports to be based on solid science and the open flow of information on which science depends, the massive venture to reconfigure the genetic core of the world’s food supply has substantially relied on the propagation of falsehoods. Its advancement and very survival have been crucially and chronically dependent on the misrepresentation of reality — to the extent that more than thirty years after the creation of the first genetically engineered plant, the vast majority of people the world-over (including most government officials, journalists, and even scientists) continue to be misled about the important facts. Moreover, contrary to what people would expect, the biotechnology industry has not been the main source of the deceptions. Instead, the chief misrepresentations have been issued by respected government agencies and eminent scientists and scientific institutions.
Dr. Steve Blake designed and helped implement the Hawaii Dementia Prevention Trial, a clinical study at the Hawaii Alzheimer's Disease Center. His study found that changes in nutrition could affect the progression of Alzheimer’s disease. Parkinson’s disease is also powerfully affected by diet. Reducing protein to just the needed amount can allow much better production of dopamine with the potential to cut symptoms in half. With migraines, avoiding dietary triggers can help reduce the frequency and severity of migraine headaches.
He emphasizes that we can no longer ignore the role of diet in neurologic disorders. He discusses how nutrition can reverse atherosclerosis and hypertension.
He found this was a successful approach in improving cognitive functioning in persons with mild cognitive impairment, in preventing strokes, and in reversing atherosclerosis and hypertension.
Metabolism is more than calories in and out. The body is finely tuned like a symphony with many intricate parts. There are so many interconnected systems, that it is difficult to know where to start in the journey towards optimal health. Dr. LaValle simplifies this process with the Metabolic Code which simplifies this process both for clinicians and patients. Many clinicians are adopting the results of his research.
Also discussed are the importance of sleep, the adverse effects of cortisol, the measurement of the cortisol response, and what laboratory tests you should ask your doctor for. Also, as a pharmacist, he believes that people are being over medicated. Each pharmaceutical drug can deplete essential nutrients needed by the body resulting in additional symptoms and the possible prescription of additional drugs.
Learn where to start in your healing journey, what tests to ask your doctor for, and pharmaceuticals effects on essential nutrients.
Functional Neurology looks at the underlying functioning of the nervous system. While allopathic neurology can diagnose gross pathology such as a stroke or traumatic brain injury: functional neurology can pinpoint functioning of specific parts of the brain. Such studies include studies with the eyes (saccades (rapid movements from point to point), pupil reflexes) and other neurological assessments. Brain imbalances can be identified long before the pathology points to a specific diagnosis. Once brain imbalances are identified, individualized treatment plans can be prepared to reverse the damages. Periodic assessments can track the improved status of brain in response to treatment.
The causes of such brain imbalances can be many such as toxins, infectious process such as lyme disease, metabolic disorders such as blood sugar irregularities and hormone imbalances. It is important to seek and treat the underlying cause as well.
Len discusses the applications of low energy photon therapy. This therapy increases circulation, releases nitric oxide, activates stem cells, stimulates collagen production, increases ATP energy production by 40 %, reduces inflammation, and increases lymphatic drainage. It also is anti-microbial (blue light), modulates the immune responses and reduces the excitability of nervous tissues.
Len has found it helpful in treating dental problems, pain, soft tissue injuries, would healing, and heart disease. Learn about light therapy and how it helps us move towards optimal health.
In the West, at age 85, the chances of having Alzheimer's Disease is fifty percent. Forgetting names and forgetting why we go into a room could be harbingers of future cognitive decline. As there is no magic pill to treat Alzheimer's Disease, prevention is important.
Some scientists refer to Alzheimer's Disease as diabetes, type three. A Harvard Study in the New England Journal of Medicine in 2013 showed that elevated blood sugar correlated with the development of dementia. Diabetes increases the risk of dementia four times, and a high carbohydrate diet increases the risk of dementia by 88 %. High blood sugar shrinks the hippocampus (the brain memory center).
Amy connects the dots between the effects of sugar and insulin on cognitive decline and what we can do to prevent cognitive decline.
The gut is at the root of many diseases. A balanced, diverse microbiome (gut bacteria) is essential for health. Reduced microbiome diversity has been linked to increased gut permeability, autoimmune, metabolic and inflammatory diseases, diabetes (types 1 and 2), obesity, Alzheimer’s, MS, autism, colorectal cancer, inflammatory bowel disease.
When the gut microbiota is altered or disrupted, it is referred to as “dysbiosis,” which results in the gut becoming inflamed and permeable (“leaky gut”). A leaky gut allows substances to pass through the walls of the gut into the blood stream. This leads to inflammation and oxidative stress - triggers for chronic diseases. A permeable gut also can start an autoimmune response because antibodies are formed against the food proteins that pass through the wall of the gut. Gut health is intricately connected to brain health. You will learn about gut health and how it effects overall health.
Dr Friedlander discusses the best forms of protein, fats, carbohydrates, exercise and nutrients that support positive epigenetic factors and longevity.
Proteins high in the amino acids proline, lysine, glycine and alanine have shown in studies to extend life span, support repair, wound healing, immune function, thyroid, bone density, skin and arteries. Reducing intake of inflammatory proteins such as tryptophan, methionine and cysteine (typically found in lean meats, chicken and whey protein) extends life span as well. Fat laden grass fed meats are better
Reducing polyunsaturated fats such as corn oil, safl ower, sun ower, and canola is important, as these oils lead to aging, via the mechanisms of glycation (bonding of a protein or lipid molecule to sugar molecule). Glycation results in a loss of artery elasticity, aging skin and damage to DNA and mitochondria.
Dr. Friedlander discusses methylene blue and collagen as and life style choices that promote longevity.
Dr. Ames will discuss his research on the role of vitamins and minerals in health and aging. Through his theory of triage, when nutrition is lacking, the body puts its resources into every day activities at the expense of DNA and damaged protein repair. Each junk food meal sacrifices protein and DNA repair which eventually leads to DNA damage and chronic diseases.
Caloric restriction, mitochondria health and obesity are as well as vitamins and minerals that promote longevity will be discussed.
Homeopathy is a system of medicine created by Samuel Hahnemann in the 1700s is based on the concept of like cures like. It uses minute doses of natural substances that in a health person would produce symptoms of disease. It can be used in conjunction with all other healing modalities.
It is used widely through out Europe and was common in the US until the 1900s. There were may US homeopathic medical schools including Boston university, the University of Michigan, Univ of Minnesota and the Univ of Iowa.
Western (allopathic) medicine focuses on limiting symptoms whereas homeopathy focuses on supporting the body's natural defenses. For example a fever is a symptom for which physicians give medications to reduce. The homeopath believes that a fever accompanies the body's attempt to expel unwanted pathogens and will give minute doses of natural substances that support the underlying defenses causing the fever.
Learn how you can use homeopathy in your healing path
Biohacking is the approach of assessing body functioning and assessing the impact of life style choices. Steve Fowkes, an expert in biohacking, discusses how we can determine if our metabolism is fast or slow, the physical manifestations of the metabolism rate, and how we can hack / alter our metabolism rate.
He discusses the body's pH as an important mechanism in health and its role in circadian rhythms. This goes beyond the message of alkalinize as it depends on the individual, the time of day and his life style choices. He will tell you how to hack your own pH and circadian rhythms for optimal performance and health.
Other self tests discussed include: An easy self assessment for a coagulopathy as well as approaches for for modifying/ hacking its impact. He will also discuss a simple self test to assess carbon dioxide levels.
Inflammation, oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, toxins, and immune dysfunction all contribute to chronic and acute illnesses. Ozone is a low cost therapy used and researched in many countries that addresses all these contributing factors. Ozone is a very powerful oxidant that human immunity system produces. It is the most powerful oxidizer and provides oxygen to the tissues. Included in its actions are: -eliminating viruses and bacteria in its path -stopping inflammation -riding the body of occult infections -making red blood cells more flexible so blood flow better -improves the ability of the red blood cell to deliver to cells -improving mitochondrial consumption of oxygen, thus making more ATP (energy) -modulating the immune system
Dr. Rowan describes his experience in healing many illnesses and describes his visit to Sierra Leone where, in the midst of the ebola epidemic, he taught local practitioners how to use ozone in combatting ebola.
Many have asked among the myriad of diets, “Which one is for me?” Dr. Palanisamy answers this question in his book, The Paleovedic Diet: A Complete Program to Burn Fat, Increase Energy and Reverse Disease. In this book, Dr. Palanisamy blends the best of the modern scientific method with the time honored ancient healing system, Aruveda. His approach helps to understand a person’s biochemical individuality and develops a diet and lifestyle plan that is individualized for each person. He also discusses the importance of nutrition, intermittent fasting, exercise, sound sleep, a balance of the mind-body-spirit, connectiveness, and the role of toxins and detoxification.
Up to ten percent of the population has an autoimmune disease, and this percentage is increasing. Dr. Vojdani explains the cause of the increase in autoimmune disease. Environmental conditions contribute approximately seventy percent of autoimmune conditions. Genetics account for only thirty percent. This unrelenting process starts with environmental toxins.
Every year, there are 2,500 new chemicals in 6 billion different products. These toxins accumulate in our bodies and bind to our tissues forming a new antigen (that is an unrecognizable substance in the body resulting in a immune response). The immune response initiates inflammation and an autoimmunity response as the body attacks this unrecognizable substance. This sets off a storm of inflammation that can enter the brain causing neurodegeneration in the brain. This can result in depression, anxiety, cognitive decline, memory problems. Toxins in food and the toxins resulting from infection suffer a similar fate.
The United States faces a health care crisis today due to rapidly rising health care costs. Why does the US spend so much more on health care than any other country, with so little to show for it? Dr Seneff posits that the US population is being chronically poisoned by a toxic chemical, glyphosate, that is pervasive in the food supply. Glyphosate is the active ingredient in the herbicide, Roundup. Because the government falsely believes that glyphosate is nearly harmless to humans, they have been very careless in monitoring it and have allowed it to permeate not only the food and water supply but also cotton products like Tampons and sterile cotton gauze, biological drugs, and, most importantly, vaccines. Dr Seneff believes that glyphosate is the main contributor to the epidemic of debilitating autoimmune diseases, including autism, Alzheimer's disease, Celiac disease, lupus, food allergies, rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, cancers, and obesity.
One diet does not fit all. Each person may have unique food sensitivities that lead to inflammation and set off a long chain of adverse reactions leading to chronic illnesses. Foods need to be broken down for the body to use. When foods are not broken down and when the gut is permeable to allow undigested proteins into the blood stream, the body produces antibodies against the undigested protein that seep out of the gut. Through cross mimicry, these antibodies may also attack different parts of the body. Through this process, food sensitivities can lead to chronic diseases such as multiple sclerosis, diabetes and dementia.
Dr. Smith will discuss the how to detect food sensitivities, their health consequences and how to avoid adverse health effects. The importance of the microbiome, digestive enzymes, sufficient stomach acid will be addressed so that the listener can live with his unique response to foods in his diet.
How can we biohack our health towards optimal wellness? Dave Asprey of The Bulletproof Executive shows how to use simple lifestyle modifications to prime the body and brain for optimum efficiency. In his personal journey to answer these questions, he spent one million dollars, raised his IQ 20 points and effortlessly lost one hundred pounds. Dave addresses:
- how to reset the appetite set point for effortless weight loss
- how to lose weight effortlessly through bulletproof coffee and a diet high in healthy fats, organic vegetables sprinkled with organic proteins.
- how to detect which suspect foods are kryptonite to the individual
- the toxins in our coffee that some foreign countries won't touch
- the health risks of molds
- how to be a better, healthier you with an optimally tuned body and brain through the bullet proof life style
Have you ever wondered what healing is like in Heaven? What would Jesus say about modern day healing? Tommy Rosa died, went to heaven, spoke to Jesus and came back to share his wisdom. However, one need not believe in Jesus to benefit from Tommy's experience. Other spiritual masters' names can be substituted as all religions have the same goal. Like a radio station, people choose the path with which they resonate. Tommy confirms that what a person faces in the after life is consistent with that individual's belief system.
Tommy collaborates with well known cardiologist, Stephen Sinatra, MD as Tommy's information coincides with Dr. Sinatra's approach for optimal health. Tommy learned about healing, mitochondria and healthy life styles. While Tommy, had no idea what the mitochondria are, these energy generators are seen as the source of Chi / prank/ the life force. In this show you will learn about the combined wisdom of Dr. Sinatra and what Tommy brings from heaven.
Does cell phone radiation cause a health risk? The answer is “yes” according to Devra Davis, PhD, MPH. Cell phone radiation has been classified as a possible class II carcinogen by the World Health Organization. Studies have shown a probable causal effect of electromagnetic fields on causing brain tumours such as glioblastoma and acoustic neuromas. Cell phones have also been associated with fertility problems and certain breast cancers.
The Italian Supreme Court has determined that Innocente Marcoliini’s brain tumour was caused by his use of cell phones. Swiss farmers swear that their health and the health of their animals were adversely affected by cell towers. Mobile devices actually warn to keep mobile devices at a safe distance. Children are even at a greater risk of harm as their heads are small, skulls are thin and their brains are rapidly growing.
Dr. Davis discusses the research, the science research, the resistance to such research.
There has been a lot of talk recently about gluten, but a gluten free diet is more than a fad. According to Dr. Tom O’Bryan, the human body cannot digest gluten and even a small amount of gluten will set off a cascade leading to intestinal inflammation and permeability, resulting in systemic inflammation and autoimmune reactions. This cascade towards a chronic illness goes unnoticed as there may be no symptoms. Like previous programs on heart health, diabetes and cognitive decline, the disease process starts long before the doctor can measure it.
Tune in to learn how gluten affects your body, and even a little gluten can set the body on fire.
Raymond Francis believes that aging is a mistake and with proper maintenance we can live to age one hundred. Fatigue, obesity, aches and pain are not a normal result of aging, but result from not allowing the body to perform its normal function of self repair. If we don't maintain our body, it will end up on a junk pile in disrepair.
There are teenagers that have the biological age of forty due to unhealthy life styles choices. He further states that there is only one disease that is caused by either lack of nutrition of toxins. He, like past speakers, believes that disease can be prevented and almost all diseases reversed with proper nutrition and avoidance of toxins. Yet proper nutrition may be a thing of the past. Soil is depleted and most foods adulterated. Even supplements do not fill the nutritional gap as the supplements that lack good quality control may cause more harm than good.
Come listen to Raymond and learn how to live to age one hundred.
Toxins are every where. They are in our personal care products, cleaning products, sofas, carpets, clothes. Before a woman leaves the house she might have put on over one hundred toxic products. Most of these toxins have not been studied for their safety, and cause harm at doses lower than previously thought. They are synergistic causing greater harm when combined.
Dr. Campbell points out that Canadians do not import certain US cheeses because of what the farmers feed the cows. Europe does not want US meat for the same reason. Many countries have banned genetically modified foods yet in the US, has decided that these harmful substances will in the food supply and the public be denied the right to know. Arsenic is fed to chickens; too much toothpaste can be lethal. Mercury and flouride are handled as hazardous waste yet, they are put routinely in our mouths. Europe has banned the use of mercury in the mouths of children under 15 years of age.
Come learn about toxins
Blood sugar stabilization is essential as each blood glucose spike and dip can cause brain damage. Diabetes increases the risk of heart disease and dementia four fold. Yet persons with normal blood glucose can have the same increased risks because the process towards diabetes starts long before it can be measured in the doctor's office. The risks for diabetes start when the fasting morning glucose levels are 81: the risk for heart disease starts when the the fasting glucose levels are 84.
We cannot rely on normal medical laboratory values to be sure that we are healthy. Typically, lab values that are based on 95 % of the population most of whom have chronic diseases. Also, lab values do not typically appear abnormal until a person is 75 % along the path toward the chronic disease. Learn how to look under the hood. to assess the status your metabolic status and risks for diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
What does the gut have to do with brain health? Everything! David Perlmutter, MD, best selling author and expert on brain health, discusses how to keep the brain and cognitive abilities healthy. He will discuss the connection between gut health and brain health. A healthy intestinal microbiome is essential for a healthy brain as well as for over all health. Learn about life style choices leading to brain health such as diet, exercise, stress reduction. Learn about factors that lead to inflammation, brain changes and cognitive decline. Surprisingly these negative factors high fructose corn syrup, gluten, glyphosate (used for genetically modified foods), and certain medications including antibiotics, proton pump inhibitors and statins.
The risks for heart attacks are not what we thought. The cholesterol model is outdated and does not adequately assess who is at risk for cardiovascular disease. The present evaluation, diagnosis, prevention and treatment of heart disease does not adequately identify at risk populations. For example the risks for cardiovascular disease starts when the blood pressure goes above 110/70. Likewise the risk for cardiovascular disease (and diabetes) starts when the morning fasting blood sugar reaches 84.
Come learn how to assess if you are on the path to heart health and how to get on that path.
