PEPTIDES! My Father Is A New Man!
Studies on Peptides have been going on for decades now. And even we, lay-people, start to understand more about them. Their benefits are simply astounding and it is the next Big Thing in achieving better health!
Tommy Snider is a very interesting man who shows his 23 years of experience helping people improve their health (the last six years by incorporating peptide therapies). He does it by explaining how each individual's metabolism is at the root of better health; and how the quality of our mitochondria plays an important part in this.
Listen to his insightful observations when he explains people's struggles resulting from yo-yo dieting.
This is a nice-flowing conversation about new and pertinent topics sure to make you feel enriched.
The notes below will help you along.
Is My Thyroid Function Low, High, or Just Right?
A thyroid blood test usually consists of just ONE number: TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone), which is not even made by the thyroid but by the pituitary gland in the brain.
However, the reference range for this test is outdated and therefore confusing. If you have any suspicion the actual symptoms you are experiencing are related to your thyroid, then please watch this entire video in order to become more empowered about how to improve the quality of your life.
What Happened to Childhood Vaccines in 1988?
Ever since vaccine companies could not be made liable for any side-effects of inoculations, vaccinations applied with a needle into the skin officially became "Unavoidably Unsafe" (US Supreme Court quote).
This was when in late 1988 vaccine manufacturers started adding the mercury substance Thimerosal to the shots as a so-called preservative to save money (50 cents a dose!). However, after the addition of mercury and other adjuvants (such as aluminum), researchers have noticed an increase in Sudden Infant Death (SIDS), autism, stunted development of children, and also fertility issues.
My guest Ricky L Barnes, maker of the documentary "50 Cents a Dose" explains what he has learned while making this movie; also, how pharmaceutical companies received government contracts, and he talks about the resistance experienced bringing this project to the larger audience.
Holistic/Biological Dentistry
If your teeth could talk... They may actually not be very happy with you; or perhaps they like to give you some more insights in how important they are.
Going to a dentist already gives many people the heebie-jeebies. And so, worrying ANY more about teeth than simple daily brushing and a semi-annual cleaning at a dentist's office, is something most like to put on the back burner.
However, meet Dr. Christian Hahn, recognized as one of the absolute TOP in the world. He has focused his entire 27+-year career on biological dentistry, anxiety visits, and pain-free treatments....holistically!
Not only does he explain very well why his methods have always worked, he also warns us about many misconceptions, unnecessary treatments, and the use of "standard" materials in dentistry that may cause long term harm.

Raising Your Spirited Child
It's pretty easy to make a child... However, once this child is born, parents develop particular instincts, and often a certain switch goes on giving them a chance to "integrate" that child into the already existing family dynamics.
And that is where life may throw us a curveball. Spirited Children bring a dynamic into the world that is "different," and that can bring its own challenges. These children are unusually intense, curious, perceptive, energetic, and passionate. And they have a difficult time with sudden changes. They can be introvert or extrovert, excited or quiet, usually very smart, and they do not fall in the categories of ADD/ADHD or OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder).
It is such a pleasure to have Dr. Mary Sheedy Kurcinka, Ed.D. one-on-one with me in the studio to help us all go through the characteristics of the Spirited Children and to learn methods to become better parents in their lives
