Christine Rosche, Certified Nutrition Specialist and Microbiome Health Expert, discusses testing for gut health. How does the health of our microbiome affect our response to viruses, such Covid-19? Is Long Covid, in part, due to alterations in intestinal microbiota? What is dysbiosis? What does “diversity” have to do with the gut? What are ways to improve immunity through the gut microbiome? What role does lifestyle play—sleep, stress, exercise? How does poor diet undermine gut balance? What foods encourage gut health? What are some of the most effective botanicals? What role for probiotics? Fecal transfer? Why therapy should be guided by a comprehensive assessment to properly individualize treatment; What can the latest stool analyses reveal about gut health? How has technology advanced in microbiome testing? Click HERE for part 2.

Treating Complicated Chronic Disorders, Part 1
July 11, 2023
Many challenging medical conditions defy treatment and challenge clinicians to come up with innovative solutions—Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, fibromyalgia, Lyme Disease, Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS), Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) and autoimmune conditions; add now the growing burden of patients with Long Covid and vaccine injury. Dr. Tania Dempsey specializes in treating these complicated chronic disorders. She has embraced and advanced a new paradigm based on addressing Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS). What is MCAS? How is it differentiated from ordinary allergies, and why are its symptoms so pervasive? What are its causes and triggers? What role for low-histamine diets? Antihistamines? Other novel medications? What nutritional supplements can facilitate its resolution? How does recognition of the contribution of MCAS facilitate treatment of patients suffering from Long Covid and vaccine injuries?

The Hazards of “Forever Chemicals” and How To Help Get Them Banned, Part 1
July 5, 2023
Rob Verkerk, Executive Director of the Alliance for Natural Health USA joins us to discuss the hazards of “forever chemicals”—perfluoroalkylated substances—also known as PFAS. A crowd-sourced project enabled ANH to test random samples of kale—both conventional and organic—and detected concerning amounts of PFAS contaminants. Why are PFAS so ubiquitous in the environment? What are their health impacts? Why haven’t the FDA and EPA highlighted their presence in the food supply? Why is it imperative to call for an outright ban on these dangerous industrial chemicals?

ENCORE: How Pulsed Electromagnetic Therapy Can Support Your Innate Healing and Regenerative Capacities, Part 1
July 4, 2023
Today’s guest is integrative MD and magnetic therapy expert, Dr. William Pawluk, author of "Supercharge Your Health with PEMF Therapy: How Pulsed Electromagnetic Therapy Can Jumpstart Your Health, Banish Pain, Improve Sleep, and Help Prevent and Relieve Over 80 Common Health Conditions." Dr. Pawluk has studied PEMF extensively and he describes its mode of action, supporting the body’s innate healing and regenerative capacities. Is PEMF safe? How does it differ from TENS or electrical stimulation? Can PEMF address psychiatric conditions and brain disorders? Why does it have such limited applications in conventional medicine, approved only for nonunion of fractures and wound healing? Is Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) used for treatment of depression and other psychiatric disorders a form of PEMF? What’s the optimal frequency and duration of treatment? Do home devices really work? How do you determine what type of therapy is right for you? Click HERE for part 2.

ENCORE: The GMO Threat, Part 1
June 28, 2023
Rampant genetic modification technology poses an existential threat to planet earth and the human race, according to consumer activist Jeffrey M. Smith, author of "Seeds of Deception: Exposing Industry and Government Lies About the Safety of the Genetically Engineered Foods You're Eating" and "Genetic Roulette: The Gamble of Our Lives." His latest initiative goes beyond glyphosate and Roundup-ready crops; he’s now taking aim at the ill-advised technology that threatens to introduce genetically-modified organisms into our ecosystems, threatening widespread disruption of nature. Altered viruses, bacteria, insects, crops, and fish like the GMO salmon are being developed without regard to the potentially dire consequences. The probable origin of the coronavirus via gain-of-function research highlights the hazards of inadvertent release. Industry has poured dark money into influencing scientists, medical journals, politicians, websites, and the media to downplay the hazards they pose. Smith is spearheading an initiative to get consumers to buy organic, but also to urge legislators to enact regulations to roll back hacking of normal biological evolution.
