The Importance of Healthy School Lunches: Congressman Kennedy shares his passion for improving school lunches, emphasizing that the food our children eat directly impacts their focus, learning, and overall health. He highlights how many kids are consuming excessive amounts of sugar and artificial ingredients, which can lead to behavioral issues and hinder their academic performance.
The Legislative Process: We discuss how a bill gets passed in Congress. Congressman Kennedy explains the steps involved, from sponsorship to committee reviews and ultimately to the President’s desk. It’s a lengthy and often challenging process, but understanding it empowers us as citizens to engage and advocate for the changes we want to see.

Congressman Kennedy discusses the financial interests that often oppose such bills. It’s a reminder that while we may think everyone wants healthier options for our kids, there are significant hurdles to overcome.

As of this podcast release, Pluvicto is officially FDA-approved for stage 4 prostate cancer without the need for chemo first! At the time of this recording, it was not yet approved. But it is now officially approved, providing access to more people!
In today’s episode, Andy, a stage four prostate cancer patient, shares his experience undergoing three Theranostics treatments. Joining us is Lynn Hiestand, a registered nurse who has been guiding Andy through his journey. Together, we discuss what Theranostics is, how it works, and the impact it’s had on Andy’s health. Here are three takeaways:
Theranostics vs. Traditional Chemotherapy: Unlike chemotherapy, which affects both cancerous and healthy cells, Theranostics specifically targets cancer cells, reducing side effects like hair loss and nausea. This leads to a better quality of life for patients. Andy described feeling "weird" during chemotherapy but much better with Theranostics, calling it a game-changer.
Accessibility and Insurance Challenges: Insurance coverage for Theranostics varies, making access difficult for some patients. Lynn emphasizes the need for self-advocacy and exploring options, including international clinics. This discussion is crucial for those navigating cancer treatment.
The Importance of Education and Awareness: Both Andy and Lynn emphasize the need for greater awareness and education about Theranostics among healthcare professionals and patients alike. Many doctors may not be familiar with this treatment, which can lead to missed opportunities for patients seeking alternatives to traditional therapies. By sharing stories like Andy's and discussing the benefits of Theranostics, we can help spread the word and potentially save lives.

In today’s episode, Dr. Lake and I discuss all things women’s health. If you're looking to reclaim your health naturally, this episode is a must-listen! Here are three key takeaways that I found particularly interesting:
Intermittent Fasting for Women: A Different Approach: Dr. Lake challenges conventional intermittent fasting, especially for women. He advocates for a nutritious breakfast and lunch while shortening the evening eating window, aligning with circadian rhythms to improve insulin sensitivity and hormonal balance. His approach prioritizes listening to our bodies and nutrient-dense meals.
The Role of Inflammation in Hormonal Imbalances: Inflammation plays a key role in women's health issues like PCOS and estrogen dominance. Dr. Lake highlights its link to insulin resistance and hormone imbalance, urging listeners to identify triggers like processed foods and toxins. Reducing inflammation supports better hormonal health and well-being.
Detoxing: More Than Just a Trend: Detoxing is often misunderstood, but Dr. Lake explains that our bodies detox naturally. For those with chronic issues, supporting these systems through exercise and sweating is key. He emphasizes that simple lifestyle changes, not extreme diets, can enhance detoxification.
Tune in to the full episode for a deeper understanding of how to approach your health naturally and effectively.

In today’s episode, Dr. Ritchey and I discuss weightlifting, muscle building, and the misconceptions that often surround them. Here are my top three takeaways from our conversation:
We debunk the myth that weight training can turn fat into muscle. Dr. Shannon explains that while you can build muscle and lose fat at the same time, they don’t convert into each other. Fat loss comes from diet, while muscle gain requires strength training and sufficient protein. This is key for achieving a "toned" look!
We talk about how many women fear becoming "bulky" from weightlifting. Dr. Shannon emphasizes that building muscle is crucial for women, especially as they age, as it supports healthy body composition and hormone regulation, including insulin sensitivity. Strength training can reduce the risk of conditions like gestational diabetes and improve overall health.
If you're a soon-to-be mom or know someone who is, this part of the episode is a must-listen! Dr. Shannon shares her insights on the benefits of strength training during pregnancy. Contrary to popular belief, lifting weights while pregnant can be incredibly beneficial, helping to maintain muscle mass and improve recovery postpartum. She provides practical advice on how to safely strength train, emphasizing the importance of exercise selection and stability.

In today’s episode, Whitney, Brandon, and I explore the hidden dangers of synthetic dyes and their impact on health—especially in children. Here are three key insights every parent and health-conscious individual should know:
Did you know synthetic dyes in processed foods can impact children's health? Whitney and Brandon share how their son's behavioral struggles improved after eliminating them. Research shows these dyes can trigger hyperactivity, irritability, and aggression—an important reminder for parents to be mindful of ingredients!
We discuss the lack of public knowledge surrounding synthetic dyes and their potential health risks. The Cawoods emphasize the importance of educating ourselves and others about the ingredients in our food. They encourage listeners to read labels and advocate for change at the local level, especially in schools.
We then dive into the differences in food regulations between the U.S. and other countries, particularly in Europe, where synthetic dyes are heavily regulated or banned. Whitney and Brandon discuss how companies often prioritize profit over health, using cheaper synthetic dyes instead of natural alternatives. This is a crucial moment for us as consumers to vote with our dollars and support brands that prioritize our health.
I encourage you all to listen to this episode and reflect on the food choices we make for ourselves and our families.

In today’s episode, Rob and I discuss the connections between soil health and our personal health. Here are three key takeaways that I think you'll find interesting: Did you know the health of our soil directly impacts our health? Rob explains how microorganisms in healthy soil are vital for nutrient exchange with plants. Prioritizing quantity in agriculture has reduced nutrient density in our food, but regenerative practices can restore its nutritional value. Glyphosate, a widely used herbicide, is not just harmful to the environment; it also poses risks to our health. Rob discusses how glyphosate disrupts the soil microbiome, which in turn affects plant health and ultimately our gut health. With rising concerns about gut-related issues and chronic diseases, it's crucial to be aware of what we’re consuming. Choosing organic and non-GMO foods can help reduce our exposure to harmful chemicals like glyphosate. Rob highlights the concept of "forest bathing," which involves immersing ourselves in natural environments to reap mental and physical health benefits. Studies show that just a couple of hours in nature can boost our immune system and improve our overall well-being. In a world where many of us spend over 90% of our time indoors, reconnecting with nature is more important than ever.I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did! Tune in now to learn more.

In today’s episode, Dr. Gray and I discuss all things related to eye health that I think everyone should hear. Here are my top three takeaways from our conversation:
Dr. Gray highlights that eye health is more than prescriptions, emphasizing a holistic approach with proper nutrition and lifestyle choices. Key nutrients like vitamins A, C, E, and omega-3s combat oxidative stress and inflammation, helping prevent eye diseases. Our bodies are designed to thrive without over-reliance on medication!
With rising screen time, many parents worry about its impact on their kids. Dr. Gray explains that excessive screen use can lead to myopia but balancing it with outdoor activities helps. Studies show kids who spend more time outside have slower myopia progression. So, let’s encourage outdoor play and sunlight.
Regular eye exams are crucial, even without glasses. Dr. Gray shares a story of a young girl whose eye exam detected an invasive cancer early, highlighting the importance of routine exams to catch potential issues.
Bio:
Dr. Collin Gray was born and raised in Lehi Utah. He attended Lehi High school where he played for the state championship soccer team in 2010. After graduating high school, he served a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Córdoba, Argentina. He later attended Brigham Young University (BYU) and married Abbie Bird before starting his senior year.
He later attended University of Houston College of Optometry. He was involved in many clubs and won several awards while attending UHCO. He was president of the OSA Equipment room, 2020 class representative, CooperVision Ambassador for the school, won Teaching Assistant of the year, and received a clinical letter of excellence award.
Dr. Gray has specialties in Myopia Control, Dry Eye, and Aesthetics. He currently serves on the Utah Optometric Association Board, and travels the country teaching other Optometrists about advanced dry eye treatments.

In today’s episode, Dr. Mayer and I discuss a topic that many parents are curious about but often feel overwhelmed by: vaccines. Here are my top three takeaways from our conversation:
Did you know that babies are born with their mother's immune system? Dr. Mayer explains how the innate immune system develops and adapts over time, especially through breastfeeding and exposure to the environment. This foundational knowledge is crucial for parents to understand how to support their child's health from the very beginning.
One of the most important points we discuss is the significance of informed consent when it comes to vaccinations. Dr. Mayer emphasizes that every child is unique, and the standard vaccine schedule may not be suitable for everyone. Parents should feel empowered to ask questions and do their research to assess their child's immunity before making vaccination decisions.
We touch on the challenges parents face when seeking medical advice about vaccines. Many pediatricians may not have the time or resources to provide personalized guidance, which can leave parents feeling lost. Dr. Mayer has created a national provider list to help parents find healthcare professionals who support informed consent and medical freedom. This resource can be a game-changer for families looking for guidance that aligns with their values.
Bio:
Dr. Ashley Mayer, NMD, is a practicing physician, taking care of families for the past 12 years. In 2014, she founded Dr. Green Mom®, a now global brand passionate about foundational healthcare for children. As a leader in the field of Vaccine Safety and Awareness education, Dr. Mayer teaches parents how to not only recognize and manage the current risk/benefit of their child’s vaccine schedule, but also how to support the child’s Neurological and Immune Systems through the vaccination process. VaccineStrategy.com launched in 2019, empowering parents to make informed vaccine decisions because the current vaccine schedule is not a one-size-fits-all for our children. Dr. Mayer has diligently kept up with a National Medical Freedom Healthcare Provider List for parents needing access to providers who believe in Medical Freedom and Informed Consent. Dr. Mayer’s true passion lies in formulating safe, natural products for Mothers, Infants, and Children. Your child’s healthcare begins in the womb, so mamas need to take care of themselves, too!

In today’s episode, Simon and I discuss health biomarkers and their significance in optimizing our health span. Here are three key takeaways that you won't want to miss:
Understanding Biomarkers: Simon explains that biomarkers are measurable health indicators that can predict chronic disease risks, like cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. Monitoring them early allows proactive steps to improve health and prevent serious issues, as many chronic diseases develop silently over time.
The Importance of Blood Pressure: One of the most accessible biomarkers is blood pressure. Simon emphasizes that nearly half of the population has suboptimal blood pressure levels, which can significantly increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. Regularly monitoring your blood pressure at home can empower you to take control of your health and make necessary lifestyle changes.
Dietary Impact on Metabolic Health: We also discuss the critical role of diet in managing biomarkers like ApoB and insulin levels. Simon highlights that saturated fats can negatively impact our lipid profiles, while polyunsaturated fats can help improve them. He encourages listeners to adopt a Mediterranean-style diet, which is rich in healthy fats and has been shown to support heart health.
