    Ep. 128 From Wheelchair to Wellness: Chris Freer's MS Reversal Story

    In this compelling episode, we dive into the remarkable story of Chris Freer, a man who faced a life-changing Multiple Sclerosis diagnosis at 43 and took the bold step of reversing it through food as medicine. Once a successful businessman running pubs and clubs, Chris was suddenly confronted with the reality of life in a wheelchair. Refusing to accept a future dictated by his diagnosis, he embarked on a transformative journey using food as medicine, challenging conventional medical advice and embracing a lifestyle focused on addressing root causes rather than symptoms.  Chris's journey from despair to empowerment is a testament to resilience and the power of self-care. Now a health and wellness coach, he’s on a mission to inspire others to take control of their health and rethink their dependency on pharmaceuticals. In this episode, Chris shares practical insights, powerful mindset shifts, and his deep belief in the body’s ability to heal. Tune in to hear how he moved beyond his diagnosis, found renewed purpose, and now helps others unlock their own potential to thrive despite chronic illness.  Find Chris Freer at: Website: www.upbeatlife.co.uk (http://www.upbeatlife.co.uk/) Facebook: @upbeatlife Instagram: @upbeat_life_uk  Discussed on the Podcast: Dr Roy Swank Diet - swankmsdiet.org Dr Terry Wahls Diet - terrywahls.com Rattled Awake book - https://bit.ly/4deiRkQ (https://bit.ly/4deiRkQ)  Learn More:  Ready to launch your career as a certified Metabolic Nutrition & Detox Coach?

    Ep 127 Reversing Cancer with Nutrition and Lifestyle with Dr. Dominic Brady, MD

    Dr. Dominic Brady, an award-winning plastic surgeon, was diagnosed with incurable Multiple Myeloma in 2017. Determined to augment his conventional treatment naturally, he did a deep dive into extensive cancer and nutrition research. As a result, Dr. Brady adopted a whole food, plant-based diet, regular exercise, and targeted supplements. His remarkable remission has surprised his oncologist, and he’s now on an extremely low dose of immunomodulators, with a goal to completely eliminate medication—something previously thought impossible for myeloma patients.  In this episode, Dr. Brady shares his journey from being a cancer patient to helping others navigate their own cancer treatments. He highlights the critical role of nutrition, which is largely neglected in medical training. Inspired by Dr. Michael Gregor’s book How Not to Die, Dr. Brady embraced a diverse, plant-based diet to support his microbiome, aiming for 30 different foods per week. He also discusses fasting, calorie restriction during chemotherapy, and the power of fiber and healthy fats. Dr. Brady covers various health practices like infrared saunas, detoxification, and water purification to support healing.  For more on Dr. Brady’s approach and to make an appointment, visit his website.  Find Dr Dominic Brady at: Website: www.naturalinsightsintocancer.com Instagram: @cancerveggiedoc Book – Beat Back Cancer Naturally: https://a.co/d/2pJj6La  Discussed on the PODCAST: Book - How Not to Die – Dr. Michael Gregor - https://a.co/d/eSZJz4M (https://a.co/d/eSZJz4M) Book - The Anti Cancer Diet – Dr. David Servan-Schreiber - https://a.co/d/iTOfqUh (https://a.co/d/iTOfqUh) The American Gut Project - https://microsetta.ucsd.edu/  Book - The Starch Solution – John McDougal - https://a.co/d/1EJmnHi Book – The China Study – Dr. T.

    Ep 123 Indigenous Realities: A Heartfelt Conversation with Mixalhítsa7 Alison Pascal

    Mixalhítsa7 Alison Pascal is a passionate Indigenous community leader, educator, and advocate based in British Columbia, Canada. She is a member of the Sk̲wxwú7mesh Úxwumixw and the Líl̓wat7ul Nations, and her career is focused on advancing the rights and interests of Indigenous peoples in her community and beyond. Alison is particularly interested in language revitalization, land stewardship, and cultural preservation and has worked extensively in these areas throughout her career.Mixalhítsa7's leadership and advocacy work have earned her several awards, including the Order of British Columbia and the Indspire Award, which recognizes outstanding Indigenous achievement in Canada. She has also served on several boards and committees related to Indigenous issues, including the First Peoples' Cultural Council and the Stó:lō Research and Resource Management Centre. Through her tireless work and dedication to Indigenous rights and cultural preservation, Mixalhítsa7 has become a respected and influential voice in her community and beyond. The podcast with Alison Pascal was a heart-wrenching conversation about the historical and current struggles of Indigenous communities in Canada. Pascal spoke about how the Canadian government's intervention in the lives of Indigenous people has caused them to suffer from alcohol consumption, drug use, and poor food management. It was not an accident, but a deliberate choice that resulted in intergenerational trauma affecting their physical and mental health. Pascal shared a story about how immigrant families were starving and freezing, but Indigenous nature helped them survive by teaching them how to farm. However, the Indigenous people were forced to side with the British to fight the French and Spanish, resulting in the loss of their land, which is now a commodity that can be sold. Today, Indigenous people are conditioned to stay inside and are denied access to gathering and foraging, leading to a loss of culture and spiritual connection to the land. The residential school system, which separated Indigenous children from their parents and land, led to a truth and reconciliation diet where children worked on school farms but were not allowed to eat the food, resulting in malnutrition and chronic diseases. Pascal questioned if it is possible to reprogram our bodies to not have chronic diseases and suggested the use of ancient medicines to maintain good health. The podcast also highlighted the issue of mental health stigma in Indigenous communities, which is exacerbated by the social aspects that white people see in Indigenous people, such as domestic violence, drug abuse, alcoholism, and gambling. Pascal spoke about the importance of a sustainable program to get kids onto the land to foster their interest in culture and the need for parents to be involved. Indigenous people are part of the land, and the land is part of them, but the spiritual loss has led to an autonomic economy that is split into unfarmable land, affecting their drinking water. Overall, the podcast highlighted the interconnectedness of intellectual, physical, mental, and emotional health, and how the wellbeing of Indigenous communities in Canada is essential for all living beings and the land. Pascal's emotional testimony left a lasting impact on listeners, calling for immediate action to address the long-standing issues affecting Indigenous people in Canada. Find Dr.Alison Pascal at:LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/3TYHubVWebsite: www.SLCC.caFacebook: @SLCCWhistler, @SistersInSpiritVigil2015, @Alison.PascalInstagram: @alison.pascal Discussed on the PODCAST:Unreserved Podcast: The dark history of Canada’s Food Guide: How experiments on Indigenous children shaped nutrition policy with Dr.

    Ep 122 Healing Trauma and Decolonizing Mental Health: Reconnecting with Traditional Ways of Knowing with Dr. Marie Mihalicz

    Dr. Marie Mihalicz is a respected researcher, consultant, and founder of White Lightning Consulting, an organization committed to community-based healing and wellness retreats. She completed her Ph.D. at Royal Roads University, where her dissertation focused on Indigenous methods of healing and their potential for addressing the high rates of suicide and mental health issues in northern Saskatchewan communities. Her research findings have been used to influence policy change, with the aim of supporting sustainable, culturally relevant mental health services for Indigenous youth and families. Dr. Mihalicz and her team at White Lightning Consulting offer evidence-based healing and education programs that combine Western science and Indigenous healing methods. Through their collaborative community-based approach, they aim to empower Indigenous youth and families to pick up their knowledge bundles in today's world, strengthening and mobilizing community processes from the inside-out. In the face of the challenges posed by the pandemic and the complex intergenerational trauma experienced by Indigenous communities, Dr. Mihalicz and her team continue to work towards enhancing sustainable counseling supports and delivering effective leadership training workshops. In this 8th podcast of a nine part series, Marie Mihalicz discusses the importance of decolonizing trauma and healing the soul. She highlights how traditional ways of knowing are not recognized, and there are gaps in the mental health system that need to be addressed. Mihalicz emphasizes that trauma is passed down through blood, but so is healing, and it is essential to understand the historical links to trauma. She suggests that healing is in our DNA and that the delivery of mental health needs to change to include outdoor therapy, such as art therapy, breathwork, and hands-on ceremonies. Mihalicz believes that the biggest barriers to healing are the spiritual loss and the fact that traditional healing methods are not recognized by the current system. She emphasizes the need for protocols and boundaries around ceremonies, as well as space to sit down and talk about how we are doing. Mihalicz advocates for the use of traditional Indigenous practices in mental health treatment, such as prescribing ceremonies and mentorship through ceremony. She encourages people to learn about their history, stories, and intergenerational trauma, to talk about it and create safe spaces to heal. Finally, Mihalicz emphasizes that healing starts with the self, and one needs to heal oneself first before helping others. Find Dr Marie Milalicz at:Website: www.whitelightningconsulting.comContact: WhiteLightening4Me@gmail.comFacebook: @Marie.MihaliczInstagram: @MarieMihaliczPhD Paper: https://bit.ly/40WcVWz Discussed on the PODCAST:Dopesick - https://bit.ly/40YkDQ0 (https://bit.ly/40YkDQ0)Healing the Soul Wound, Eduardo Durran - https://a.co/d/9vjnxgODr. Stephen Britton of Ile-a La-Crosse-St. Joseph’s Hospital - http://bit.ly/3nM2uXqPure Fe - https://purafe.com/Rumble Documentary - www.rumblethemovie.com Learn More: Ready to launch your career as a certified Metabolic Nutrition & Detox Coach?
