Dr. Kemper served as chair of the American Academy of Pediatrics subcommittee that authored the 2022 revision of the neonatal hyperbilirubinemia guidelines.Together, they explore the motivations behind revisiting the 2004 guideline, the major changes introduced, and how these revisions are shaping clinical care. Dr. Kemper explains why treatment thresholds for phototherapy were raised, the careful balance between avoiding unnecessary interventions and preventing kernicterus, and the rationale for moving away from the risk stratification nomogram. The discussion highlights phototherapy as an effective but not benign therapy—one that can disrupt bonding, prolong hospitalization, and create family stress when overused.Listeners will gain insight into the complexities of evidence review, the challenges of consensus-building over eight years of work, and the importance of shared decision-making and reliable follow-up after discharge. This conversation not only demystifies the new guidelines but also reframes the way clinicians think about jaundice management, risk stratification, and the broader impact on families.Support the showAs always, feel free to send us questions, comments, or suggestions to our email: nicupodcast@gmail.com.

The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) is heavily funded by pharmaceutical companies, influencing policies that promote more medical interventions for children while reducing parental control The AAP's top priority is to eliminate parental authority over childhood vaccination decisions, replacing it with state or provider control Major child health issues like rising obesity, increasing autism rates, and chronic illness prevention are absent from the AAP's top 10 priorities The AAP uses rare measles outbreaks to justify removing personal and religious vaccine exemptions, despite measles mortality already being near zero before mass vaccination began Ignoring preventive strategies, the AAP's approach sets children up for lifelong dependence on pharmaceutical products rather than building lasting health
The CDC's advisory panel voted to recommend separate MMR and varicella shots for children under four, citing a slight seizure risk with the combined MMRV vaccine, a move strongly opposed by the American Academy of Pediatrics as misleading and confusing. In obesity care, a phase 3 trial showed oral semaglutide 25 mg led to an average 13.6% weight loss in adults without diabetes, reinforcing GLP-1 pills as an effective option. Meanwhile, a large study linked pediatric CT scan radiation to increased blood cancer risk, urging dose minimization and safer alternatives.

Send us a textA monumental clash between religious liberty and medical authority erupted last week when the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommended eliminating all religious exemptions for vaccines required for school attendance. Dr. Robert Jackson and his daughter Hannah Miller dive deep into why this recommendation represents a dangerous overreach that threatens fundamental constitutional rights.The conversation opens with a crucial revelation: the AAP holds absolutely no legal authority. Despite its official-sounding name, it's merely a private membership organization that receives substantial funding from pharmaceutical companies manufacturing vaccines. This glaring conflict of interest explains why the organization would push to eliminate exemptions that represent financial losses to pediatric practices nationwide.Religious freedom stands as the foundation of all American liberties, protected explicitly by the First Amendment and reinforced by the Civil Rights Act of 1964. When schools or employers attempt to override religious exemptions for vaccines, they engage in illegal discrimination. Dr. Jackson emphasizes that religious beliefs are deeply personal and require no validation from religious leaders or institutions—your "sincerely held religious conviction" is legally sufficient and beyond question.The episode offers practical, empowering guidance for parents facing institutional pressure. With remarkable clarity, Dr. Jackson outlines a respectful yet firm approach to assert your rights: request to see anti-discrimination policies, ask about exemption committee members' training in non-discrimination law, and even request religious statements from those judging your exemption. These simple steps typically resolve issues without legal intervention.Perhaps most chilling is the historical context provided through Benjamin Rush's prophetic warning that without constitutional protection for medical freedom, medicine would organize into "an undercover dictatorship." As medical bureaucracies increasingly limit individual choice, we're witnessing the very scenario the founding father feared.Stand firm in defense of your constitutional rights while navigating vaccine requirements. Whether you're a parent facing school registration challenges or an employee dealing with workplace mandates, this episode equips you with the knowledge to protect your religious liberty and medical autonomy.Support the showhttps://www.jacksonfamilyministry.comhttps://bobslone.com/home/podcast-production/
The suit alleges Kennedy violated federal law.
What would you say if I told you the reason we circumcise our boys is not about preventing UTIs - - - but to prevent masturbation? I know. WHAT?! It's historically accurate that the circumcision movement in the U.S. was aggressively promoted in the late 1800s by Dr. John Harvey Kellogg—yes, the cereal guy —to curb masturbation. Kellogg believed that removing the foreskin - which contains over 20,000 specialized nerve endings - to permanently expose the glans, which then becomes scarred, calloused, and desensitized, would reduce sexual pleasure and therefore discourage what he saw as immoral behavior. They're literally cutting off what many consider the male equivalent of "the G-Spot." Yes - it's uncomfortable to talk about the sexual implications of a procedure performed on infants, but every adult male was once an infant - and it gets deeply personal for adult men when they learn what they lost without consent because their parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents were lied to. This episode is personal for me. In 2008, I blindly handed over my newborn son for this "routine" procedure. Saying that now saddens my soul. I grew up in the Midwest. Circumcision is "normal." It's heart-wrenching to know THAT'S IT - cosmetic normalcy and smoke-and-mirror, for-profit, pseudo"science." That's why we do it - a cultural blind spot. The AMERICAN ACADEMY OF PEDIATRICS even SAYS there's NO SUBSTANTIAL HEALTH BENEFIT. I heard my brand new baby boy's torturous screams as they performed - without anesthesia - this truly barbaric procedure billed to insurance as “circumcision.” It changed me. This became a truth I had to tell. My guest is Eric Clopper, an attorney and former employee of Harvard University. Eric gained international attention with his viral lecture, "Sex & Circumcision: An American Love Story," performed at Harvard in 2018. It cost him his job, but created a platform to expose the cultural, religious, and medical forces keeping parents in the dark. Through his legal practice, The Clopper Law Firm, P.C., and as the founding president of Intact Global, Eric challenges the constitutionality of laws permitting male genital cutting while prohibiting female genital mutilation, arguing that such laws violate the Equal Protection Clause.

Glick The Ridged Band of the Foreskin by Dr. John R. Taylor Nutritional Therapy Practitioner Virtual Open House Thank you for reading, listening, and sharing. This conversation isn't easy - and it isn't about blame or shame. It's about waking up to truth. Good news: Change is happening. Circumcision rates in the U.S. have dropped to below 55% today—and even lower in some regions. Your son or grandson won't be alone. Being intact is becoming the new normal. The fear of being “different” or bullied in a locker room is fading fast as many parents are choosing to protect wholeness over conformity. It takes some serious testicular fortitude to be the dad willing to say, “My son doesn't have to look like me.” - That's how healing begins. That's how cycles end. I'm so thankful you're here. May this conversation stay with you—not as judgment, but as clarity. Not as fear, but as freedom. With so much love, empathy, and hope, —Jamie

In this episode, Dr. Ed and Liz listen to the story of a parent who was told their infant was ‘severely obese' and needed to be put on a restrictive diet - purely based on the child's BMI and no other evaluation. This leads them to dive deep into the new AAP guidelines for the treatment of children with obesity - guidelines which are aggressive, applied to as young as 2 years old, and based almost solely on BMI screening. Dr. Ed and Liz use the lens of eating disorder prevention and treatment to assess the weaknesses, dangers, and omissions in these guidelines.

Last month, 20-year-old Isabelle Ayala filed a first-of-its-kind lawsuit, accusing the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) of civil conspiracy, fraud, and medical malpractice. Ayala claims to have been pressured by AAP-affiliated doctors into so-called “gender-affirming care” as a minor. Like the many young girls who were subjected to experimental gender “transition” therapies, Ayala's story begins with significant emotional and mental distress during her adolescence. Sexually assaulted at age seven, she experienced early-onset puberty at age eight. Deeply uncomfortable in her own body, she began, at age 11, to cut herself. Around the same time, she was introduced to the concept of transgenderism through online social media platforms like Instagram, Tumblr, and Kik. At age 13, Ayala's parents separated, and she was moved from Florida to Rhode Island. By age 14, she became convinced that she had been born in the wrong body and that “transitioning” to living as a man was the only way to solve her problems. Ayala's story is tragic and, tragically, not unique. The number of young women claiming transgender identities has increased dramatically in recent years and now outnumbers the young men with gender confusion (an increase of 5,000% at the Tavistock Clinic in the U.K.). The factors driving the spike in confusion among young women include childhood trauma, social contagion, and social media, or some combination of the three. However, rather than treating the underlying factors and distress contributing to her dysphoria, Ayala's pediatricians treated their effects as normal. They ignored her family's history of anxiety disorder, bipolar disorder, PTSD, and depression, as well as Ayala's formal diagnoses of ADHD, depression, and anxiety. Her pediatricians encouraged and facilitated her confusion with ideological blinders that treated what was, in reality, a pseudo-medical fad as if it would help a vulnerable young woman. Desperate to help their daughter, Ayala's parents trusted these medical professionals who, while feigning objectivity, were, in fact, captured by gender ideology. Though her parents initially sought out interventions that were “totally reversible,” her pediatricians claimed “cross-sex hormonal treatment” was the best option and accepted treatment for her distress and gender dysphoria. In an all-too-common bit of parental manipulation, these doctors asked Ayala's parents whether they would “prefer a dead daughter or a living son.” Doctors who say this are wrong. So-called “transition” treatments do not address core mental health problems, leave patients with additional, irreversible medical conditions, and fail to address the social factors driving the dramatic increase in body dysphoria among young women. Research suggests that after an initial “honeymoon” period in which patients embrace their new “identities” and harmed bodies, they remain at a disproportionate risk for serious mental illness and suicide. Chemical “transition” treatments are also not “fully reversible” as is often promised. Women who take testosterone experience irreversible masculinizing effects, such as deeper voices and facial hair, and commonly infertility. Still, after just a few appointments, Ayala was placed on a rapidly increasing dosage of testosterone. However, contrary to what these doctors predicted, Ayala experienced no significant decrease in depression despite an accompanying prescription of antidepressants. Within six months, Ayala was hospitalized for a panic attack. Within eight months, she was hospitalized again following a suicide attempt. With no signs that her depression was abating, her doctors prescribed higher doses of antidepressants, while continuing to inject her with cross-sex hormones. The following year, Ayala moved back to Florida. Initially, she continued to take testosterone. But, a year after moving, “she distanced from the control and influence” of the doctors who ushered her down this road of gender “transition.” Eventually, she quit taking cross-sex hormones and “gradually grew out of her gender dysphoria,” realizing that her distress over her identity as a female was the result of traumatic childhood experiences. Her reversal reflects the majority of adolescents who experience gender dysphoria. Research suggests that between 88% to 98% of young adults reconcile to their biological sex if allowed to go through puberty. Thankfully, Ayala's story isn't finished. If successful, this lawsuit could protect many, many minors from these horrific, experimental chemical and surgical interventions. The many medical professionals who perpetrated this harm would be held accountable and, in the future, forced to do their job helping rather than harming. Young women like Ayala need to know that their hearts, minds, and bodies can find healing from their trauma and can learn to accept who they are as a gift of God.

Soon after Meenal Lele's first child was diagnosed with multiple food allergies, new research upended decades of allergy advice. The LEAP study found that consistently adding allergenic foods beginning at four months of age could drastically reduce the rate of developing food allergies. The American Academy of Pediatrics subsequently began recommending that parents give allergenic foods to their babies early and often. As Meenal struggled to prepare allergens three times a week for her second child, she realized how hard it was to mix nuts into baby food without exposing his older brother or contaminating the blender. There had to be a better way! She took my background in chemical engineering and worked with food scientists to develop a solution. Lil Mixins is specially prepared to blend smoothly into breastmilk, formula, or baby foods, so it's simple to give to infants. They use the best quality ingredients and no additives or sweeteners – the same way you would make it yourself, but without the mess. And they've made it so one jar of each product will last from early infancy until your baby can start to eat whole foods. Their goal is to make early introduction easier for busy moms.

Anna Lutz sat down with Katja Rowell, M.D., a family doctor, author, and responsive childhood feeding specialist to talk about the new AAP guidelines. They discuss: What pediatric clinical practice guidelines are and why the AAP releases them periodically. The details of the recently released clinical practice guidelines for pediatricians and family doctors. The deep flaws in the data and information used to formulate these guidelines. How using weight or body size as a barometer for health means that healthcare providers often miss what else may be going on for a patient. Advice for pediatricians or family doctors to practice through a weight-neutral lens. The ways in which dietary restriction for children in order to get a particular weight outcome is harmful, almost always backfires, and has a negative lifelong impact. Advice for parents to navigate kids' pediatric well visits. Katja Rowell M.D. is a family doctor, author, and responsive childhood feeding specialist. Described as “academic, but warm and down to earth,” she is a popular speaker and blogger and has appeared in numerous publications.

The American Academy of Pediatrics issued new guidance in evaluating and treating kids who are overweight or obese. It's the first update in 15 years and comes under scrutiny because they are now calling some to provide weight loss drugs and surgery to help teenagers manage their weight. Dr. Kathy is concerned about the new guidance and offers important insights for parents and those who care deeply for children.
The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour1: The New Orleans-based 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals struck down a Trump Administration order that banned “bump stocks.” According to guidance from the American Academy of Pediatrics, obese children as young as 12-years-old should consider medications to combat obesity—with surgery sometimes recommended for kids who are 13-years or older. Why isn't the American Academy of Pediatrics just placing a great emphasis on children exercising instead of encouraging risky medications and even surgery? Are kids being over-medicated? In a new Wall Street Journal opinion editorial, Jenin Younes and Aaron Kheriaty document “[n]ewly released emails" showing "how officials coerce social-media companies to toe the government line.” They write, “[t]he emails emerged Jan. 6 in the discovery phase of Missouri v. Biden, a free-speech case brought by the attorneys general of Missouri and Louisiana and four private plaintiffs represented by the New Civil Liberties Alliance.” Younes, litigation counsel at the New Civil Liberties Alliance, will be joining the show later this afternoon.
The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 2: Michael Torres—Deputy Editor of RealClearPennsylvania—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his latest article, “PA GOP Leaders Point to Trump for Midterm Losses.” Torres spoke with multiple Republican officials throughout Pennsylvania following last week's midterm elections—many suggested that former President Donald Trump's fixation on the 2020 election led him to endorsing flawed Republican primary candidates that were unable to win general elections. The Rich Zeoli Show has an abbreviated Friday broadcast due to sports. Rich has developed a reputation for not working on Fridays—but, by the end of November, Matt will have avoided working a full Friday for the entirety of the month! Rich shames him. According to The Post Millennial, guidance from the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) suggests that irreversible “gender affirming” procedures on children under 18 are acceptable—though, tattooing a child is an offense that is punishable by law.
