To achieve healthy, clear skin, avoid these common skincare mistakes. 0:00 Introduction: Skincare mistakes to avoid0:20 Skin damage explained 1:28 What not to use on your face2:31 Lemon juice and sun exposure5:25 Rubbing alcohol and bad skin products7:07 Topical steroids and skincare mistakes8:30 More skincare do's and don'ts Your skin is the largest organ in your body. On top of the skin, especially the face, is the acid mantle. This acidic, protective barrier houses millions of microbes that protect you.Putting the wrong products on your skin can negatively affect this environment, leading to redness, rashes, acne, dry skin, and other skin problems. Avoid the following 11 products that ruin your skin! 1. Apple cider vinegarACV is too acidic for the skin. It can cause irritation and redness. If you want to use it on your skin, dilute one teaspoon into 8 ounces of water.2. Lemon juice Don't put lemon juice on your face or hair! It contains a phytochemical that can cause problems when you're exposed to sunlight.3. Essential oils Some essential oils, such as cedarwood and tea tree oil, are simply too strong for the skin.4. Bergamot Combining bergamot with sun exposure can cause skin inflammation. 5. Baking sodaWith a pH of 9, baking soda is too alkaline for the skin. It can damage the acidic environment, compromising the beneficial microbes on the skin.6. ToothpasteHarsh ingredients like peroxide and fluoride should not be used on your skin.7. Rubbing alcoholAlcohol kills the microbes on the surface of your skin. This can allow the overgrowth of unfriendly bacteria. Many creams and lotions contain alcohol, so be sure to check the ingredients of your skin care products.8. Hydrogen peroxide This is effective for removing stains on the teeth and for cleaning, but it's not suitable for use on the face.9. Hair dyeHair dye used for your eyebrows and eyelashes can be very dangerous to your eyes. 10. Topical steroids Redness, irritation, and flakiness are often treated with topical steroids without second thought. Topical steroids stop the growth of skin cells and the production of collagen. 11. Exfoliating scrubsFrequent use of exfoliating scrubs can scrub off the microbiome of your face. It's beneficial to get a filter for your shower head to reduce skin exposure to chlorine and fluoride. Opt for makeup that is free of chemicals and fragrance! Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

Why have we lost our trust in natural medicine? In this video, we'll discuss why natural medicine is ignored and sometimes even dismissed as folklore. Is it wise to invalidate the wisdom of the past? Discover the truth about natural medicine in this video.0:00 Introduction: Natural medicine suppression0:19 United States Dispensatory 0:38 Pharmaceutical vs. natural medicine 3:08 The advancement of medicine 6:35 Natural remedies of the past The “United States Dispensatory” by Wood and Lawall may provide insight into alternative medicine censorship in the United States.

When the 22nd edition of the book was published in 1943, the ratio of natural to synthetic drugs shifted to 50:50.Today, medicine is often prescribed without considering lifestyle, eating habits, sleep patterns, stress levels, or the microbiome. Symptoms of the underlying problems are treated without addressing the root cause.Discover these 20 natural remedies that have stood the test of time, along with the ailment they have historically been used to address.1. Cod liver oil—Tuberculosis, tetany, nerve pain2. Nutmeg oil—Psychotic problems3. Olive oil—Mild laxative, gallstones 4. Pine needle oil—Eliminates mucus from the lungs 5. Castor oil—Mild laxative 6.

These dangerous food additives are designed to get you hooked! Find out about the hidden toxins in your diet that could be taking a serious toll on your health. Avoid these ingredients by any means necessary!0:00 Introduction: The most dangerous ingredients in the world0:23 Why are these toxic ingredients so addictive?3:06 10 deadly ingredients in processed food 6:00 Seed oils and your health12:05 Download the Dr. Berg app! How do they turn cheap, toxic ingredients into a highly addictive food? The worst food ingredients often have the following components:•Devoid of protein•Create a blood sugar spike•Artificial flavorings•MSG•Manipulated texture •Good mouth feel•Bliss point •Signals the release of dopamine •Pleasure when eating Avoid the following toxic ingredients, often found in ultra-processed foods.1. Trans fatsSome foods still contain trans fats. This ingredient is even worse when combined with refined carbohydrates. 2. High fructose corn syrup This synthetic sugar goes straight to the liver, contributing to a fatty liver and insulin resistance. Sweet drinks made with alcohol cause significant liver damage and affect the brain, nervous system, and heart. Seed oils exacerbate this problem. 3. Sodium nitrate This is a preservative found in bacon and hot dogs, and it becomes increasingly toxic when heated.4. Fried potatoes/burnt toastAdding heat to a starch creates toxic byproducts such as aldehydes and acrylamide. These toxic ingredients cause inflammation in the body. Starch or sugar combined with protein creates AGEs, harmful byproducts that damage your arteries, eyes, kidneys, and brain. 5. Artificial sweeteners Artificial sweeteners have a toxic effect on the body, especially the microbiome. 6. Glyphosate Glyphosate is patented as an antibiotic and classified by the WHO as a probable carcinogen.7. MSGMonosodium glutamate affects the hypothalamus in rats, causing them to overeat and become obese. This ingredient can make low-quality food taste better than it really is. 8. Phosphate This stimulant can contribute to arterial calcification, especially if you don't have enough vitamin K2. 9. Potassium bromateThis ingredient is a bread conditioner and is classified as a probable carcinogen. 10. Synthetic flavoringThe ingredient “flavoring” consists of hundreds of chemicals used to manipulate your sense of taste. Chronic consumption of artificial flavors can dull your appetite for real food.

In 2012 he began co-instructing the technique, and since 2015 has been a full-time instructor alongside Dr. James Cox, Dr. Ralph Kruse, and Dr. George Joachim.

Are multivitamins bad for you? How could that be? In this video, I'll share the truth about the multivitamin scam. Find out about the vitamins you should never take, supplements that don't work, and the harmful ingredients in your supplements. 0:00 Introduction: Multivitamins truth0:19 Harmful ingredients in supplements 1:45 Synthetic vs. natural vitamins 3:38 Do multivitamins really work?9:32 Natural vitamins and minerals11:17 Fake vitamins exposed! Many multivitamins are made with the cheapest, synthetic ingredients which could be doing more harm than good.The first ingredient in many multivitamins is often calcium carbonate, which is limestone! The first ingredient usually makes up the majority of the product. Magnesium oxide, another common ingredient, is very cheap and has the lowest absorption rate compared to other forms of magnesium. The term “natural” isn't regulated, so ingredients derived from sources such as petroleum and coal tar can be labeled as natural. In nature, vitamins don't exist alone; they are combined with other nutrients and cofactors, which are often missing when you take synthetic vitamins. Biochemistry can not work without cofactors. Although there are nutrients that are difficult to obtain in sufficient amounts from food, that doesn't mean they should be replaced with synthetic multivitamins.Maltodextrin is commonly used as a filler in vitamins and minerals. It's a highly refined industrial starch, classified as a complex carbohydrate, and spikes blood sugar more than sugar. Ascorbic acid is a synthetic part of the vitamin C complex. Approximately 90% is made in China from GMO corn and sulfuric acid. Many people have a genetic issue converting cyanocobalamin, a synthetic form of B12, and folic acid, a synthetic form of B9, into their active forms. This can cause negative side effects in 40% of the population.Almost all of the popular multivitamins are owned by Big Pharma, Big Food, Big Chemical, or large investment groups. For example, Centrum Silver is owned by Pfizer, and One a Day is owned by Bayer. Nature Made is owned by the same company that sells Abilify!Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

Avoid these mistakes for a healthy gut! These 8 common gut health mistakes could be destroying your digestive health. Discover the habits and foods that ruin gut health, along with my expert gut health tips to improve your digestion and overall health today.1. Trying to improve gut health with fiberIncreasing fiber is one of the worst things you can do for your gut, yet it's commonly recommended. If your gut is damaged, fiber can exacerbate the issue, contributing to gas and inflammation. If you have gut inflammation, the carnivore diet can help!The carnivore diet helps increase glutamine, an amino acid that promotes gut healing. Zinc carnosine and butyrate, found in butter, are excellent for a healthy gut. Intermittent fasting and periodic prolonged fasting are crucial for maintaining digestive health.Approximately 40% of the population has SIBO. L. Reuteri can help reduce SIBO and has many other amazing benefits. It increases oxytocin, lowers stres, and even increases social capacity. Ensure you have strong stomach acid for healthy digestion and protection from microbes. 2. Commercial probiotics and yogurt The amount of probiotics in these products is so low that it won't make a difference in gut health. Many commercial yogurts are low-fat and contain added sugar and starch. 3. Colon cleansingThis eliminates beneficial gut bacteria, which can ultimately lead to constipation and other health issues. Avoid detoxing and focus on a healthy diet.4. Antibiotics Your gut microbiome does not fully recover after taking antibiotics. Bacteria that survive antibiotics can become antibiotic-resistant superbugs! If you have to take antibiotics take a good probiotic simultaneously.5. Antacids Acid reflux is a valve problem caused by low stomach acid. Weakening your stomach acid worsens the problem. Strong stomach acid is vital for digestion, protection against pathogens, and mineral absorption. 6. Low-fat diets Low-fat diets are bad for digestion because fat stimulates the gallbladder to release bile. Low bile leads to constipation and the inability to kill off microbes in the small intestine.7. Balanced diet Everything in moderation is the worst advice! Lowering carbs from 45% to 65% of your calories to 10% can significantly improve digestion.8. Superfood shakesSuperfood shakes and smoothies with kale, spinach, and fruit can overload the small intestine with fiber. Red meat is the best superfood!

If you suffer from severe menstrual cramps, this is for you. Find out how to stop menstrual cramps naturally by addressing the root cause with these 13 natural remedies for period pain. Never experience menstrual cramps again! 0:00 Introduction: How to reduce period pain0:23 What is a menstrual cramp? 1:30 What causes severe period cramps? 6:42 Vitamin D3 and painful menstrual cramps 12:38 13 natural remedies for period painToday, I'm going to show you how to relieve period cramps fast, and for good. There are two types of period cramps: the primary type is labeled idiopathic, and secondary cramps that are caused by fibroids, ovarian cysts, or endometriosis.Many women take NSAIDs, birth control pills, and Depo shots for period pain relief. The medical community generally discourages the use of natural remedies for menstrual cramps, but does not discourage the use of medication. Research has shown the effectiveness of vitamin B1 and vitamin E.Upon searching for the root cause, I stumbled upon the following clues:• Painful cramps are caused by pain chemicals called prostaglandins. • Vasopressin, which causes contractions and decreased blood flow, is elevated when you have menstrual cramps.• Painful period cramps are associated with high parathyroid hormone levels. • Women with painful menstrual cramps also have much higher inflammation in the uterus, often related to NF-KB. • Black women have a 33% higher likelihood of getting severe period cramps than white women. • Menstrual cramps are sometimes treated with calcium channel blockers. This led to the conclusion that the root cause of menstrual cramps is a severe vitamin D3 deficiency! Try the following natural remedies for period pain and say goodbye to menstrual cramps for good:1. Take 20,000 IU of vitamin D3 daily2. Take 400-600 mg of magnesium glycinate 3. Follow a low-carb diet4. Intermittent fasting5. Cod liver oil for pain relief6. Vitamin E7. Vitamin B18. Increase iron with red meat9. Zinc for vitamin D3 absorption10. Exercise11. Fenugreek12.

This artery cleansing drink is like exercise in a cup! Unclog arteries and support cardiovascular health with one cup of this amazing drink daily. Reverse arterial plaque and prevent a heart attack naturally!0:00 Introduction: How to unclog arteries naturally0:33 What causes clogged arteries?2:21 How to increase nitric oxide3:00 How to reverse clogged arteries8:35 The best drink to unclog arteries10:33 More cacao benefits If you have damage to your arteries, you're at an increased risk for high blood pressure and clots, which can cause strokes and heart attacks. When you visit the doctor for these conditions, they typically address the symptoms rather than examining the root cause.The root cause of plaque in the arteries is endothelial damage. Endothelial damage and inflammation are repaired by plaque, composed of calcium, cholesterol, and protein.Arterial damage decreases nitric oxide levels, resulting in less control over blood pressure and an increased risk of clotting. Around 90% of heart attacks come from clots!Sunlight is vital to increase nitric oxide. Nasal breathing and magnesium are also essential.You can reverse arterial plaque buildup through a process called reverse cholesterol transport. This mechanism transports plaque in the arteries back to the liver for recycling. This process can be sped up with the help of the following:•Niacin •HDL cholesterol•Exercise •Fasting •Low-carb diets •Bile salts Magnesium controls calcium, so increasing your intake can help to remove it from the arteries. Polyphenols protect the endothelial layer of the arteries, and vitamin K2 helps prevent arterial calcification. Cacao powder is the main component of the best drink for your arteries. It's high in flavonols and stimulates enzymes in the body to produce more nitric oxide. Roasted cacao has been shown to increase blood flow to the arteries, similar to the effects of exercise.Cacao is also beneficial for your heart, brain, skin, and other organs and tissues in the body. It has an accumulative effect and can build up in your system over time. To prepare your drink, combine cacao powder in a glass of water. You can drink it cold or warm. Add beetroot juice powder for an additional boost of nitric oxide and an interesting flavor. You can also add a pinch of sea salt and a scoop of magnesium glycinate for the most potent effect!

What if true wellness could be measured, achieved, and sustained—not just wished for? In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Dane Donohue, creator of 8 Weeks to Wellness and a leading voice in chiropractic and functional health. Our conversation begins with the reality of today's health crisis—rising obesity rates, chronic disease, and declining vitality—and explores how society's current approach to healthcare has missed the mark. Dr. Donohue shares how growing up in a chiropractic family shaped his belief that health should be proactive, measurable, and holistic. We unpack the 8 Weeks to Wellness program, a science-backed system that integrates the triad of health: physical, mental-emotional, and biochemical. Through the program's "wellness score," patients can track tangible improvements in body composition, movement, and overall vitality in just eight weeks. Dr. Donohue also reveals why creating structure, accountability, and education around daily habits can spark transformation that lasts a lifetime. Together, we explore what it means to take control of your health story and how true wellness starts long before disease appears. Key Takeaways: Obesity and chronic diseases are on the rise, yet proactive health measures can significantly reverse this trend. The Eight Weeks to Wellness program is designed to educate patients on a balanced lifestyle, focusing on comprehensive wellness scores that track progress. Customized health solutions, including posture assessment, X-rays, and body composition analysis, help in formulating effective treatment plans.

Could the root cause of chronic diseases like type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and hypertension really be the same? In this video, I'll show you how to prevent chronic illness by effectively addressing the root cause, rather than just the symptom. “Based on my genetic report, identify which genes show adaptations to ancestral diets (hunter-gatherer, farming, natural). Then, explain how these same genes may create a mismatch with modern diets and environments. For each, show practical consequences and strategies to thrive today.”0:00 Introduction: The #1 root cause of chronic disease 0:20 Medicine ignores the root cause of health problems 1:23 What causes chronic disease?4:45 Genetics and chronic disease10:16 Tips for chronic disease preventionMedicine aims to label a disease and treat the symptoms with medication.

Stop Settling for Shortcuts: Why Quick Fixes Are Failing Your Health” When did we start believing that a pill a day keeps the problem away? In this episode of Chiropractic is Se*y, we're exposing the trap of “easy-button” healthcare. We share a conversation with a patient who was taking a nightly Prilosec without ever asking why he needed it—or what it might be doing long term.We also tackle a big myth: that you're stuck with the health outcomes your parents had. You are not a victim of your genes. Your environment, choices, and habits turn genes on or off—this is the science of epigenetics, and it's empowering once you understand it.Tune in as we talk about:The family legacy of lifestyle-driven illnessHow discomfort is actually a signal (not a nuisance)Why foundational health work matters more than symptom reliefEpigenetics: how your environment influences gene expression
You could be consuming the world's most dangerous carbohydrate without even realizing it. This hidden carb spikes your blood sugar, even more than actual sugar. Find out about the #1 most dangerous carb in this video. 0:00 Introduction: The #1 most dangerous carb in the world1:58 What is the worst carbohydrate? 2:20 What is starch? 5:20 Refined carbohydrates and chronic disease 6:08 Hidden sugar foods8:31 Food vs. ultra-processed foods It's no secret that ultra-processed carbs can take a serious toll on your health. Consuming this dangerous carbohydrate can have the following side effects:•Development of type 2 diabetes and a fatty liver•Insulin resistance•Visceral fat•Feeds pathogens in the gut •Inflammation•Increased LDL cholesterolProducts containing this ingredient can be marketed as zero sugar, even though it quickly turns to sugar in the blood. It's incredibly cheap, at about 20 cents per pound, and has no health benefits. It's used as a filler, and the average person consumes between 60 and 250 pounds per year.You can find this ingredient in gluten-free foods, baby formulas, baked goods, and other refined foods. Surprisingly, many athletes also consume this product. The carb we're talking about is industrial starch, such as modified food starch, corn starch, and maltodextrin. Starch is a string of glucose molecules. When a starch is modified in a lab, its bonds become very weak and fragile, causing it to turn into sugar very quickly in the body. Industrial starches are processed with chemicals such as sodium trimetaphosphate, vinyl acetate, bleach, and octenyl succinic anhydride. These chemicals are considered GRAS (generally recognized as safe), but they are self-regulated. Industrial starches are directly responsible for the complications associated with type 2 diabetes, Alzheimer's, brain plaquing, and fibrosis of the liver. People rarely consume starch alone. Most junk foods are composed of starches, seed oils, and sugar. Consuming starch with seed oils is a deadly combination! Hidden sugars are also consumed in much higher quantities than actual sugar. Food is defined as “that which is eaten to sustain life, to promote the growth and repair of tissues.” By this definition, starch is not food!Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

Yogurt is touted as a health food that can help support the gut microbiome, but really, how healthy is yogurt? In this video, discover all the things you didn't know about yogurt. Your gut health depends on this!0:00 Introduction: Is yogurt bad for you? 0:10 Fermented foods 1:00 Yogurt side effects and benefits 3:10 Commercial yogurt vs. homemade yogurt5:11 Unhealthy facts about yogurt6:45 Processed yogurt ingredients 8:59 Probiotics, kefir, and sauerkraut The benefits of yogurt and other fermented foods do not lie in their ability to reseed the gut. The real benefit is the change in environment. Fermented and cultured foods change the pH and oxygen levels in the gut. They also provide food and metabolites for the gut microbes, which can also help activate dormant microbes. Many microbes have been suppressed by antibiotics, junk food, and other factors. Many of them are keystone microbes, which are vital for your gut health. Unless your yogurt says it contains live and active cultures, it's been double-pasteurized. Commercial yogurt typically ferments for 1 to 2 hours, whereas traditional homemade yogurt ferments anywhere from 8 to 36 hours. By the time you eat commercial yogurt, there are significantly fewer CFUs of bacteria than stated on the label.Sugar in yogurt can kill the friendly bacteria and feed pathogens in your gut. Added ingredients, such as pectin, gels, and guar gum, inhibit bacterial movement. Yogurt fermented for only 1 to 2 hours will not have the right texture or thickness, so ingredients such as modified food starch, carrageenan, and polysorbate 80 are added. These ingredients can destroy the mucosal layer of the gut, leading to leaky gut and inflammation. Many commercial yogurts contain artificial sweeteners, which are known to alter the gut microbiome.Many processed yogurts contain bioengineered food ingredients that may contain traces of glyphosate, a patented antibiotic. This means the very product you're consuming to support your gut health could be destroying your gut microbes. Probiotics contain significantly more microbes than yogurt. These freeze-dried microbes are often able to reach the large intestine and reseed the gut, especially when taken repetitively. Kefir, which contains both bacteria and yeast, is also a better option than yogurt.Sauerkraut is an excellent food for gut health. It contains polyphenols, postbiotics, SCFAs, sulforaphane, organic acids, glutamine, and the compound s-methylmethionine.

Your favorite social media influencers might be under the influence. Discover the truth about Big Pharma and the social media influencer marketing corruption tactics they use to spread health misinformation online. Don't let Big Pharma influencers affect your health choices!0:00 Introduction: Big Pharma exposed0:55 How Big Pharma buys influencers 1:24 Big Pharma corruption and lack of trust2:24 How Big Pharma controls the media 7:11 How to identify health misinformation online 11:36 Myth-busting online Did you know that Big Pharma and Big Food buy social media influencers? These social media health gurus influence what you eat, the decisions you make about your health, and attempt to invalidate other health influencers and information. As Big Pharma loses public trust, it turns to social media influencers to try to regain it. Since 2000, penalties for Big Pharma have totaled over $126 billion. Sixty billion of that was related to patient injury and harm. Modern medicine, with the help of Big Pharma, has shifted its focus from health to profit. Approximately 90% of the media on TV is funded by Big Pharma. This is also true for digital marketing. On average, social media influencers are paid $20 to $25 per 1,000 views. If that influencer has more trust, they can make 8 to 12 times this amount. Based on my trustworthiness and credibility, I could be paid between $250,000 and $500,000 for a 60- to 90-second post.Big Pharma goes through PR firms to connect with social media influencers. These influencers are required to disclose that they're being paid, but many of them do not. People like Dr. Mike recommend medicine and vaccines yet claim Big Pharma is not paying them.Dietitians for larger agencies, such as the American Beverage Association and the Canadian Sugar Institute, have gotten into trouble with the FTC for being paid to share dietary advice without disclosing their financial ties.It's often difficult to determine whether Big Pharma is influencing health information online, but examining the intention can sometimes help. Are they recommending fewer ultra-processed foods and chemical drugs, or more? Check out their funding. Is it coming from Big Food or Big Pharma? This is a big sign that they're being influenced.

E346: Men's Silent Struggle: Why the "Tough It Out" Mentality is a Health Crisis | The Prime Podcast It's November, and that means it's Men's Health Month. In this powerful kick-off to a four-part series on men's health, Dr. Skip Wyss and Dr. Julie Wyss of The Prime Podcast tackle the single biggest barrier to wellness for men: the "silent struggle." Why do men avoid talking about their health problems? This episode explores the deep-seated cultural stigma that equates showing pain with weakness. This "tough it out" mentality, often ingrained since childhood, causes men to ignore pain, dismissing it as "background noise" until it leads to a "catastrophic failure." Dr. Skip and Dr. Julie discuss how this unaddressed chronic pain becomes a source of chronic stress, leading to a "disregulated nervous system" that can shut down other vital functions, from GI health to sexual function, and is directly contributing to declining longevity. This episode is a call to action for men to break the silence, become proactive leaders in their family's health, and understand that seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness. Learn how chiropractic care is essential for regulating the emotional nervous system and managing the body's response to chronic stress. Men's Health Month (Movember): An annual event in November focused on raising awareness for key men's health issues, including mental health, prostate cancer, and testicular cancer. Silent Struggle: The widespread tendency for men to suffer from physical or mental health issues in silence, avoiding discussion due to societal pressure or embarrassment. "Tough It Out" Mentality: A cultural belief that men should endure pain without complaint, viewing any admission of pain as a "sign of weakness." Disregulated Nervous System: A state where the body's nervous system is locked in a chronic stress response, often due to unaddressed chronic pain, which negatively impacts all other bodily functions. Proactive vs. Reactive Health: Being proactive means taking preventative steps to maintain wellness, while being reactive is the "tough it out" approach of only seeking care after a "catastrophic failure" (severe pain or disease) occurs. Catastrophic Failure: A term describing the point where the body finally breaks down after ignoring chronic "background noise" pain for years, resulting in a debilitating condition. Key Takeaways: The "tough it out" mentality is a dangerous stigma preventing men from seeking necessary healthcare. Men often ignore chronic pain until it becomes "background noise," which is a sign of a disregulated nervous system. Unaddressed chronic pain and stress can lead to "catastrophic failure" of other organ systems (e.g., GI, heart, sexual function). It is NOT a "sign of weakness" to talk about health issues; it is an essential part of being human and a good leader. Fathers have a crucial role in modeling proactive healthy habits for their children, breaking the "silent struggle" cycle. Chiropractic care helps regulate the emotional nervous system, decrease internal stress, and improve the body's ability to heal. Stop suffering in silence. If you or the men in your life are ignoring health issues, it's time to be proactive. Share this episode and start a conversation.

In this powerful Ask Dr. Tony episode, Dr. Tony Ebel addresses the recent wave of anti-chiropractic content flooding social media from conventional medical doctors. Rather than responding with anger, Dr. Tony offers a thoughtful, science-based perspective on why natural, neurologically-focused healthcare is exploding in popularity—and why some in the medical community feel threatened by it.Dr. Tony emphasizes that this isn't about "us versus them," but about giving families effective options. He shares his deep respect for emergency medicine (which saved his son Oliver's life) while making a compelling case for why drug-free, neurological approaches should be the first line of defense for chronic conditions. Throughout the episode, he dismantles common criticisms with updated neuroscience, real-world outcomes, and the principle that being effective matters more than being right.----Links & Resources:Listen to Oliver's Miracles Story Here.----Key Topics & Timestamps[00:01:00] - The Social Media Backlash: Dr. Tony addresses the recent flood of hateful, reactionary posts from MDs targeting chiropractors and natural health[00:03:00] - Straw Man Arguments Exposed: Breaking down how critics misrepresent what neurologically-focused chiropractors actually do [00:11:00] - Being Right vs. Being Effective: The real issue—are doctors focused on protecting their turf or serving families?[00:19:00] - Outcomes Over Opinions: Why we should compare real health results between conventionally-raised kids and those receiving neurological care[00:24:00] - Oliver's Story: Dr. Tony shares his personal gratitude for emergency medicine that saved his son's life[00:31:00] - The Nervous System Revolution: How modern neuroscience confirms what chiropractic has understood for 125+ years[00:38:00] - Medicine Saves Lives, Chiropractic Restores Lives: Defining the proper roles and sequencing of different healthcare approaches[00:42:00] - Understanding Before Criticizing: Why critics who never studied chiropractic can't accurately critique it[00:46:00] - Advice for Parents: How to handle the negativity and stay focused on what works for your family -- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocs Facebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs Network Youtube: The PX Docs For more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.

These 7 dangerous nighttime habits can ruin your sleep and wreak havoc on your health. Stop making these nighttime routine mistakes! Get better sleep tonight by quitting these unhealthy night habits immediately. 0:00 Introduction: Avoid these habits that hurt sleep2:22 Avoiding screens for better sleep 4:28 Alcohol before sleep 8:05 Avoid these before bed10:05 More sleep equals better sleep1. Carbs and sugar before bedGrowth hormone rises at night, but is blunted by a rise in blood sugar. This hormone helps you burn fat, repair tissues, and build muscle mass. A massive blood sugar spike before bed can interfere with your sleep and cause grogginess, fatigue, cravings, and irritability the next day.2. Screens and lights before bedAvoid lights and screens, especially those emitting blue light, for at least 2 hours before bed. Melatonin is suppressed by light. Not only does this powerful antioxidant help you sleep, but it's more important than glutathione for detoxification and DNA repair. Blue light also suppresses deep delta wave sleep and REM sleep. 3. Using alcohol to fall asleep Alcohol tricks your body into falling asleep, but you're not really sleeping: your body is working to detoxify alcohol. Alcohol increases cortisol and adrenaline, and depletes electrolytes. It also depletes vitamin B1, which can cause anxiety and nervous tension the next day. Instead of alcohol, try magnesium glycinate in warm water or kombucha tea.4. Late-night junk food Junk foods typically contain seed oils, which are inflammatory and hard on the gallbladder. If you're craving salty food before bed, try putting a small amount of sea salt in your mouth or adding more salt to your dinner.5. Antihistamines or sleeping pills before bed Sedated, artificial sleep does not leave you feeling rejuvenated and rested in the morning. People often feel less focused with decreased concentration and memory. You may eventually need more of the drug to create the same effect.6. Sleeping next to your cell phoneYour cell phone and charging cable both emit electromagnetic fields (EMFs), which can negatively impact your brain and sleep cycles. EMFs also interfere with melatonin. Keep your cell phone on airplane mode or away from your body when you're sleeping. 7. Sleep deprivationSleep deprivation can make sleep more difficult in itself. You need at least 7 hours of sleep each night. Try to get to sleep at 10:00 p.m. each night, or 11:00 p.m. at the latest.

One in 4 people is infected with this silent killer disease that's deadlier than the plague. You may even have this infection! Find out about this deadly microbial threat and how to stay healthy so you don't become the next victim. 0:00 Introduction: Infectious disease deadlier than the plague 1:30 Latent infections 2:59 Tuberculosis facts 4:39 Tuberculosis and vitamin D7:38 Immune system function8:20 Sun exposure and infrared rays Many people are infected with a disease that's worse than the plague! The plague killed 200 million people, and in total, this bacterium has killed 1 billion! It's the world's deadliest infectious disease and kills more people than HIV and malaria combined. It kills around 1.3 million people each year, yet you don't hear much about it. Latent infections such as herpes, EBV, CMV, HPV, and Hepatitis B and C are able to go in and out of remission. Today, we're going to talk about the pathogen that gives you tuberculosis.Tuberculosis (TB) doesn't evade the immune system, it invades it. TB hides inside the macrophage, which is responsible for cleaning up bacteria and infections in the body. TB affects more people in the northern hemisphere away from the equator, and its incidence increases in the winter. Older people or those with type 2 diabetes, HIV, or low vitamin D are at an increased risk of an active TB infection. TB blocks the vitamin D receptor, which lowers your immune function. There was an uptick in TB outbreaks in the 80s when sun phobia was promoted. This campaign significantly reduced vitamin D levels by reducing sun exposure. Before the development of antibiotics, people with tuberculosis would go to sanatoriums for fresh air and sunlight exposure. Cod liver oil was also shown to be beneficial for people with tuberculosis infections.The immune system destroys TB with a compound called cathelicidin, a broad-spectrum antimicrobial that depends on vitamin D. Not only is the sun vital for vitamin D production, but it also exposes you to infrared light. Infrared reverses mitochondrial damage and can increase vitamin D signaling, further protecting you from a TB infection.
