Most people assume that if a drug sits on the shelf at Costco or Walgreens, it must be pretty safe. But what if some of the most common over-the-counter (OTC) medications are among the riskiest drugs in America? On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared exposes the hidden dangers behind everyday pain relievers, sleep aids, and heartburn drugs—medicines that cause thousands of deaths every year when misused or taken long-term. You'll learn how a drug becomes “OTC,” what happens when pharmaceutical companies push for that switch, and why the FDA's approval process might not tell the whole story. Jared dives into the startling realities of PPIs like Prilosec, NSAIDs like ibuprofen, and acetaminophen (Tylenol)—uncovering their risks to the liver, kidneys, bones, and brain. He also discusses how marketing convinces consumers these drugs are harmless. Finally, Jared offers a resource for safe, natural alternatives for reflux, pain, inflammation, sleep, and immune support—options that nourish the body instead of depleting it. This episode will change the way you look at “harmless” OTC drugs and help you take real control of your health.Just Ingredients Lemon Swish Protein Powder Vitality Radio POW!

EASY LISTENING DEP'T.: Bloomberg is reporting that Trump Media, the social media company owned by President Trump, the single person with the greatest power to personally cause events to happen in the world is going to start selling gambling contracts on prediction markets. “Trump Media and Technology Group Corp.” Bloomberg writes “plans to make prediction contracts available on its truth social network, allowing users to bet on events ranging from political elections to inflation rate changes, according to a statement on Tuesday.” Not sure that range of two different aggregates of public behavior is a real range. But with Donald Trump making drastic policy changes that affect consumer prices, while also exerting pressure on the people who report economic data, the opportunities for trading on insider information seem abundant.

This week, primary care physicians Kate Rowland, Mark Ebell, and Henry Barry want to arm our primary care colleagues with the best evidence on whether acetaminophen causes autism, whether MMR causes autism, and whether leucovorin can treat autism. Gary then turns to a study of the value of continuity in primary care, and its association with better health outcomes.Links:Henry's essay on Ignaz Semelweis, handwashing, and postage stamps: https://thestampforum.boards.net/thread/13044/current-issue-volume-jul-2025 Essential Evidence Plus and POEMs: www.essentialevidenceplus.comAcetaminophen in pregnancy and autism: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/38592388 Leucovorin to treat autism: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15781839, https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/34834493 MMR and autism, Wakefield investigation: https://www.bmj.com/content/342/bmj.c5347MMR and autism, Madsen's Danish study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12421889/ Value of primary care continuity: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/40355250And do NOT eat roadkill.

Review Part III - after the Attia Podcast After completing the interview with Dr. William Parker and now listening to Peter Attia's analysis, let us look again at this question. I repeat that the initial question has not changed for me. The first and most fundamental question to ask is this: What is the true value of acetaminophen in health compared with the potential risk if the associated findings are indeed correct? My response to this question has been altered by the analysis so far. I love this from Dr. Attia: "Some people might be wondering, why did you just take so long to explain all this to us? Why don't you just give us the answer? I just want the sound bite, man Peter's reply, “If you just want sound bites, you're never going to learn.” Honestly, if you just want sound bites, this isn't the podcast for you. But if you actually want to be able to learn to think for yourself, then that's what we're here to do. And that's the reason we killed ourselves over the past week to put together the most thorough gathering of all the data we could find and the most intense night-weekend analysis possible. " I agree! I believe that the science and data are key. So here goes - round three!..... Dr. M

There is an in-depth episode on the Safety of Tylenol (Acetaminophen) and Other OTC Medications During Pregnancy. Acetaminophen is an over-the-counter analgesic for pain relief and an antipyretic, which reduces fever. Acetaminophen is also known by the brand names Tylenol, Paracetamol, and Panadol. That episode covers the recently raised concerns about prenatal acetaminophen use and neurodevelopmental disorders like autism spectrum disorder. If you haven't listened to that one yet, it provides important background on how this controversy started and what the evidence says. After that episode aired, I received numerous emails from listeners who had additional questions. Let's take a look at some follow-up questions to navigate some specific scenarios and make an informed choice about acetaminophen.

Many were feeling whiplash from the headlines about Tylenol, pregnancy, and health, so Episode 64 was born. Then, questions flooded in, prompting this follow-up episode of the Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast, which covers the most common questions listeners asked. Join host Jamie Belz and fellow NTP Nolan Gleich in this foundations-first, bio-individuality-driven practitioner and parent advocate response to cut through the noise with practical, hopeful, and doable steps for real families. You'll hear root-cause thinking (not “bandaid fixes”), how to build your “wellness web” of aligned practitioners, and simple daily changes that can make a meaningful difference. This episode is encouraging and actionable—perfect for any parent who wants clarity and calm. Questions answered: Tylenol & neurodevelopment: “How could acetaminophen be associated with neurodevelopmental concerns, and what might be happening biologically?” Glutathione support basics: “If acetaminophen depletes glutathione, what foundational supports (like NAC, vitamin C, selenium) are commonly discussed?” Folate forms, decoded: “What's the difference between folate, folic acid, L-methylfolate, and folinic acid?” Leucovorin & the FRAT test: “What is leucovorin and why do some clinicians use it in kids? What is the folate receptor autoantibody test (FRAT) and what does it screen for?” Prenatal picks: “Why do some parents look for prenatals with folate instead of folic acid?” Food-first options to support wellness: Plus sneaky ways to add organ meats to meals! Pregnancy comfort without Tylenol: “What are gentle ways to handle headaches, nausea, and body aches? Fever guidance for moms & kids: “When is comfort care enough, and what are simple hydration/electrolyte strategies that actually help?” Dyes & behavior: “Why do some families try an artificial-dye-free week (think Red 40, Yellow 5/6) and what swaps make it easy?” Building your support team: “How do I find practitioners aligned with a foundations-first approach and navigate conflicting advice with confidence?” Why you'll love it Empowering, not scary: Zero doom. Just clear next steps you can try tonight. Bio-individuality first: We honor that every mom, every baby, every child is different. Foundations before fads: Sleep, minerals, protein, movement, and gentle supports you can actually sustain. Hope, front and center: Realistic, compassionate guidance for families in the thick of it. Heads up: Nothing here is medical advice. Use this episode to spark empowered conversations with your trusted provider and tailor choices to your family.

Can something actually be “proven safe” for everyone or does that go against what we know to be true about bioindividuality? In this empowering episode of the Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast, host Jamie Belz sits down with Nolan Gleich, NTP, Certified Fertility Awareness Educator, and Digital Marketing Strategist at the Nutritional Therapy Association, to unpack the headlines linking Tylenol (acetaminophen) to autism and explore what true health freedom really means. Together, Jamie and Nolan zoom out from fear-based headlines to the bigger picture: how chronic illness, toxic load, and bioindividuality shape health outcomes, and why foundational, root cause wellness is the future of healthcare rather than quick, Bandaid fixes that only mask the symptoms of deeper, underlying issues. Inside this episode, you'll discover: Why “proven safe” isn't a universal truth—and how bioindividuality challenges one-size-fits-all medicine The role of epigenetics, toxicity, nutrient deficiencies, and gut health in chronic illness and autism risk RFK's recent $50 million autism research initiative and what it could mean for families Practical, foundation-first alternatives for pain and fever support in pregnancy and childhood (hydration, digestion optimization, nutrient-dense foods, rest, immune support) How education empowers us to be confident and trustworthy advocates for our health This conversation isn't about blame—it's about hope, empowerment, and solutions. Wherever your thoughts are regarding the Tylenol and autism topic, this episode will leave you inspired to trust your body's innate wisdom, learn more about the foundations of health, and embrace the freedom that comes with bioindividuality.

Cowan Book: Nourishing Traditions by Sally Fallon 8 Questions to Ask Your Doctor: How do you incorporate nutrition, lifestyle, and environmental factors alongside medication in your treatment plans? (Opens the door to see if they go beyond pharma-first thinking.) Do you routinely check labs like vitamin D, B12, folate, homocysteine, magnesium, and toxin exposure — and adjust care based on those results? (Tests whether they practice data-driven personalization vs. generic labs only.) What role do you see a nutrient-dense, whole-food diet (grass-fed meats, raw dairy, fermented foods, organ meats) playing in care and prevention? (Checks if they value ancestral, nutrient-dense foods vs. standard diet guidelines.) How do you evaluate nutrient deficiencies like magnesium, CoQ10, or B vitamins — and do you personalize supplementation rather than giving one-size-fits-all protocols? (Probes for bioindividuality instead of cookie-cutter multivitamins.) What strategies do you use to support gut health and the microbiome, given the gut–brain and gut–immune connections? (Determines whether they see digestion as foundational, not secondary.)

Is Tylenol really safe?With all the dramatic discussions online about acetaminophen, autism, and potential side effects (that include liver failure risks), my clients have been asking my opinion. The truth is somewhere in the middle because, as with anything – over-the-counter medications like this, herbs or even nutritional supplements – there are pros and cons.Nothing is risk–free.In this episode, I'm breaking down what acetaminophen does in your body, what it depletes (super important!), stats on side effects, and what to consider before reaching for it—plus some supportive options and cleaner alternatives.⭐️Mentioned in This Episode:- See all the references

Welcome to Dr. M's Women & Children First Podcast, where we engage with pioneering voices at the intersection of science, healthcare, and the well-being of families. Today, I'm honored to introduce Dr. William Parker, PhD. Dr. Parker is perhaps best known for discovering the function of the human appendix, but his contributions to science extend far beyond that single discovery. He studied biology and chemistry as an undergraduate before earning his PhD in Chemistry from the University of Nebraska–Lincoln in 1992. Since the 1980s, he has conducted innovative research, publishing more than 150 peer-reviewed articles that span immune function, microbiome science, and human health. Dr. Parker was the first to compare immune systems in wild animals with those of their laboratory counterparts, and among the first to conclude that changes in the human “biota”, the symbiotic organisms living within us, brought on by modern society can contribute to depression and anxiety. After nearly three decades at Duke University, where he served as associate professor and research leader, he founded WPLab, Inc., a nonprofit dedicated to understanding and educating about the causes of chronic inflammatory diseases in high-income societies. Currently a visiting scholar at the University of North Carolina, Dr. Parker collaborates widely with colleagues from Duke University, University of Montreal, Czech Academy of Sciences, University of Groningen, University of Colorado Boulder, and scientists across the pharmaceutical industry. In recent years, he has turned his attention to a provocative and urgent question: the potential links between early acetaminophen exposure and autism spectrum outcomes. His current work combines mechanistic and epidemiologic approaches to explore how acetaminophen's effects on human physiology at critical stages of development might influence neurodevelopment. In our conversation, we'll explore: The evidence and hypotheses behind acetaminophen's potential role in autism risk What families and clinicians should know: what's plausible, what remains speculative, and where research is heading next I'm thrilled to share this episode with Dr. Parker, whose intellectual curiosity, scientific rigor, and courage to ask difficult questions embody the spirit of this show. Dr. M
Does Tylenol, or acetaminophen, cause autism? Those who disagree are taking pills for fun and those who agree are defending the link as absolute proof. What happened to vaccines caused autism? Furthermore, even on the issue of vaccines, most serious arguments never said they caused autism, but instead were a large contributor to autism. The same is true for the federal link of acetaminophen to autism. It is a link to a potential risk. That's different than a direct agent of cause, and certainly the only cause. Acetaminophen was introduced in the 1890s, and autism was first coined in 1911, not being fully diagnosed until the 1940s. However, upon its introduction, it was never widely available to the public, something that only became true in the 1950s. For context, we need to address what autism actually is: some key characteristics are a struggle to maintain eye contact, scripted speech, issues with nonverbal gestures, having very focused interest in specific subject, arranging things obsessively, a dislike for a loud noises. These are fascinating symptoms, considering that they are the definition of a cultural behavior found famously in the Japanese. In other words, these behaviors in the United States would be classified as autism, but in Japan, normal functional and civil behaviors. As with ADD, which disappeared and was changed to ADHD, and as with polio, which was likely caused by DDT and other chemicals, autism itself might be a misclassified condition. As with the MAHA movement's focus on beef, dairy, and sugar, it appears the linkage of autism to Tylenol takes the responsibility off of more likely culprits that contribute, not directly cause, a complex neurological condition. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

Media coverage suggests that the HHS Secretary plans to release a report linking acetaminophen use during pregnancy with an increased risk of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in offspring as well as linking maternal folate deficiency with ASD—associations that have not been supported by evidence. If promoted by public health agencies, such discrepancies pose a dilemma for clinicians who have relied on and trusted that guidance reflects evidence and is grounded in scientific methods.

Setting: President Trump held a press conference after attending Charlie Kirk’s funeral, teasing it as a “major announcement” on autism and public health. Main Claim: Trump and RFK Jr. asserted that acetaminophen (Tylenol) use during pregnancy may be associated with an increased risk of autism in children. Trump directly warned against taking Tylenol while pregnant, except in extreme cases of high fever. Autism Statistics (as presented by Trump): Historical rates cited: 1 in 20,000 → 1 in 10,000 → 1 in 31 overall today, and as high as 1 in 12 among boys in some regions (e.g., California). He described this increase as “artificial” and linked it to medication and vaccines. Specific Policy Steps Announced: FDA to issue warnings and update labeling for acetaminophen, cautioning its use during pregnancy. NIH, FDA, CDC, and CMS to coordinate a new effort investigating potential environmental, pharmaceutical, and vaccine links to autism. New grant funding (13 awards) through NIH’s Autism Data Science Initiatives. Other Health Proposals Trump Raised: Vaccines: suggested spacing them out, avoiding certain ingredients (mercury, aluminum), giving MMR separately, and delaying hepatitis B vaccination until age 12. Treatment: referenced new findings suggesting folate deficiency in children may contribute to autism, with therapies under research. RFK Jr.’s Role: He emphasized that past autism research was too focused on genetics and ignored environmental/toxic exposures. Supported Trump’s push to investigate acetaminophen, vaccines, and other potential causes. Announced NIH/FDA would pursue depoliticized research, new label warnings, and public education campaigns.

It's Fun Day Monday on the Majority Report On today's show: The Trump administration is hinting at a link between Acetaminophen and autism. Border Czar Tom Homan was investigated for receiving $50,000 in cash back in 2024 for a promise of employment in the Trump Administration. Oddly, after Trump's victory the DOJ shut down the FBI investigation. Professor of immigration and citizenship law at the University of Virginia, Amanda Frost joins the show to discuss her book You Are Not American: Citizen Stripping from Dred Scott to the Dreamers. In the Fun Half: Despite saying himself that we are on a path to a dictatorship, Chuck Schumer still won't commit to a government shutdown or doing anything at all. When asked about how House Democrats can resist fascism Hakeem Jeffries says the answer is more protest, more speeches and offers nothing else. The Charlie Kirk Memorial in Glendale, Arizona had Donald Trump feeling like dancing. Stephen Miller addresses the Kirk mourners with a Goebbels inspired speech. The patriots leaving the memorial left an incomprehensible amount of garbage throughout the streets of Glendale. All that and more. The Congress switchboard number is (202) 224-3121.
