    26-29 The 2 Causes Of ALL Disease

    Episode 26-29 The 2 Causes Of ALL Disease It's hard for your body to heal from a disease if you don't eliminate the underlying cause. That's a pretty logical statement, right? It is. Unfortunately, it's not one that's adhered to… especially by the medical profession. Their strategy isn't to eliminate the CAUSE of disease. Its to prescribe drugs that will "treat" the corresponding symptoms. For example, a medical doctor will prescribe drugs for a man with high blood pressure. Drugs he must take for the rest of his life. Drugs that will NOT correct the underlying cause of his high blood pressure. Drugs that have negative side-effects. It doesn't make sense. It's also not different for any other chronic disease. The doctor will prescribe drugs. Drugs that will do nothing more than "manage" the symptoms. Drugs that will NOT correct the underlying cause. Drugs that will NOT promote healing. There has to be a better way. There IS a better way. An approach to health care that seeks to identify and correct the underlying CAUSE of chronic disease. On this week's episode I share with you the underlying cause of chronic disease. Specifically, I talk about the TWO causes that, in my opinion, are at the root of all chronic disease. This is an episode you DON'T want to miss as it holds the blueprint for healing. Give it a good listen and, as always, share it with a friend. Thanks!  ———————- Want to learn more?

    26-27 How A Patient Used Their Mind To Heal Their Body

    Episode 26-27 How A Patient Used Their Mind To Heal Their Body Paul came to my office about a year ago complaining of congestion in his chest, chronic coughing, difficulty breathing and sleep apnea. In an attempt to get better he visited a medical doctor. The doctor prescribed him a few drugs and while they did offer some relief, they also produced some nasty side-effects. Side-effects he wasn't willing to live with. This inspired Paul to pursue a more natural approach. Unfortunately, this also ended in disappointment as the holistic doctor he visited placed him on a ton of supplements... supplements that DID provide some benefit but were costing Paul hundreds of dollars each month. Soon after that, a recommendation from a friend led him to my office. I put him on a program of Chiropractic care, dietary changes, and a FEW supplements. This led to significant improvement… But only up to a point. Despite the improvements, Paul's health was still not where he wanted it to be which led me to ask him the following question: "Do you believe your Mind can play a significant role in healing your Body?" He responded with a resounding "Yes." I then proceeded to give Paul three suggestions... suggestions which he faithfully followed. They worked! On this episode I share with you the three suggestions I gave Paul to get his Mind to heal his Body. Suggestions anyone can use. Please give this episode a good listen and, as always, share it with a friend. Thanks! ———————- Want to learn more?

    26-26 A 5-Step Framework For Using Your Mind To Heal Your Body

    Episode 26-26 A 5-Step Framework For Using Your Mind To Heal Your Body There are times when healing comes easy. For example, placing a BandAid on a cut… or resting and icing a sprained ankle. Both will provide your body with an environment conducive for healing. Unfortunately, there are also times when healing DOESN'T come easy. Times when your condition is much more serious. Times when you've "tried everything" yet still aren't better. THOSE are the times when you should look into the healing power of your Mind. Times when you should consider how improving the way you think can improve the way you heal. On this episode I talk about how to do that. Specifically, I share a 5-Step Framework for using your Mind to create an environment in which your Body can heal itself.  It's a Framework that just may be the "missing piece" of your healing puzzle. Give this episode a good listen if you are interested in adding a powerful tool to your healing toolbox. And, as always, please share this episode with a friend. Thanks!  ———————- Want to learn more?

    26-24 Cancer? Here's A Holistic Approach…

    Episode 26-24 Cancer? Here's A Holistic Approach… "How do you treat cancer holistically?" That's a question I've been asked many times during my 37 years of being a Chiropractor. And every time I give the same same answer: "You don't. You don't treat cancer holistically. In fact, you don't 'treat' anything holistically. You treat the PERSON." It's true. Unlike traditional medicine, a holistic approach to cancer does NOT "treat" the cancer. It treats the person. Specifically, a holistic approach to cancer utilizes health-promoting habits… all aimed at helping the individual establish an environment in which the cancer can't survive. And on this week's episode I share eight of these health-promoting habits. Eight habits that will help create an environment in which cancer can't survive. An environment in which the body can heal itself. Give this episode a good listen if you, or anyone you know, is looking for natural ways to overcome cancer… or any other disease. And, as always, please share this episode with a friend. Thanks!  ———————- Want to learn more?

    26-23 The Niacin Sauna Protocol - A Powerful Detox Method You've Never Heard Of!

    Episode 26-23 The Niacin Sauna Protocol - A Powerful Detox Method You've Never Heard Of! Over the past few months, I've spent a lot of time learning about the negative effects of toxins on our bodies. I've also spent a lot of time studying natural methods we can use to rid ourselves of these toxins. On this week's episode I talk about one such method.  A powerful way to rid our bodies of toxins. It's called The Niacin Sauna Protocol and it's something I find fascinating. Why? Because it has the potential to help us rid our bodies of toxins. And not just any toxins… I'm talking about environmental toxins that have become "stuck" deep inside of our cells. To be honest, I have NOT tried the Niacin Sauna Protocol.  Nor have I had any of my patients go through it. However, everything I have learned about it… from people who HAVE gone through it… has impressed me. And THAT'S why I'm doing an episode on it.  I want you to learn about The Niacin Sauna Protocol with me. You can start by listening to this episode… and then sharing it with a friend.

    26-22 Does Atrazine Cause Infertility, Low Testosterone and Birth Defects?

    Episode 26-22 Does Atrazine Cause Infertility, Low Testosterone and Birth Defects? The original plan for this episode was to share scientific studies showing the health benefits of sweating. Studies that specifically prove how sweat can help your body rid itself of toxins. Something, however, changed my mind. Something related to one of the toxins I was studying…  Atrazine. Atrazine is a powerful herbicide used to prevent weeds from growing around crops. And while that certainly "sounds" good, there are some serious consequences related to the use of Atrazine. Consequences such as Infertility, Low Testosterone levels, and Birth Defects. Needless to say, that's not good. It's also not talked about. Until now. On this episode I talk about the dangers of Atrazine and why it's important to be aware of them. Please give this episode a good listen and share it with everyone you know. (It's really that important.) Thanks! ———————- Want to learn more? Continue the conversation regarding this episode, and all future episodes, by signing up for our daily emails.
