Lab studies found dandelion extract killed cancer cells while sparing healthy cells. This is one podcast you don't want to miss! Emma is an acupuncture physician and founder of Chinese Medicine Living – a website dedicated to sharing how to use traditional wisdom to live a healthy lifestyle in the modern world. She is passionate about her work and loves to share her knowledge of this wonderful medicine to empower people to live healthier, happier lives. She has written for multiple publications over the past decade and is now a health reporter for The Epoch Times covering Eastern medicine, nutrition, trauma, and lifestyle medicine. In lab studies, dandelion extract killed melanoma cells within 48 hoursTriggered cell suicide in leukemia cells (in a dose- and time-dependent manner)Eliminated 95 percent of colon cancer cells within 48 hoursKilled pancreatic cancer cellsInhibited the spread of triple-negative breast cancer cells“When an older woman with terminal leukemia asked to be discharged from the hospital, her doctors assumed they would never see her again. Two weeks later, she walked back in. Blood tests revealed that her cancer markers had dropped by 50 percent. The only thing she had done differently was drink tea made from a common backyard weed.”“Her hospital roommate, hearing the story, began drinking the tea herself. Blood test showed that her cancer markers dropped by 25 percent.” “One person having that experience might be a coincidence. Two people getting the same result was something else. Dr. Caroline Hamm, an oncologist who had been treating both patients, picked up the phone and called a biochemist she had been working with on other cancer research.”“Research has found that dandelion root extract (DRE) can selectively destroy mutiple cancer cell types while sparing healthy cells in laboratory and animal studies. Concurrently, a number of terminal cancer patients—people who had run out of options and had nothing to lose—began taking dandelion root on their own. In several documented cases, their cancer became undetectable within weeks or months. Years later many remain cancer free." “In lab studies dandelion extract targeted several pathways, while many chemo drugs target DNA”“In 2011, Siyaram Pandey, a researcher and professor of biochemistry at the University of Windsor in Ontario, launched a formal investigation into dandelion root as a possible non-toxic treatment for cancer” Emma Suttie wrote in this premium report, featured in the Mind and Body section of The Epoch Times.Here are more episodes with Emma Suttie:Emma Suttie - Do the New Breast Screening Guidelines Protect Women? #2078FURRY FRIDAY Joni Kamlet - Medicinal Mushrooms for Pets, Emma Suttie - Is Longevity Genetic? #2036WELLNESS WEDNESDAY Dr. Jonny Bowden - Insulin Resistance, Emma Suttie - Neurological Healing for Trauma #1965Thank you to our past and present sponsors!Orijen Premium Pet Food: orijenpetfoods.comEnviromedica – Rewild your gut with spore-based probiotics and wild-harvested prebiotics designed to support a healthy and diverse microbiome.Children's Health Defense - Listen every month as we cover the top stories from the CHD‘s Defender Newsletter Thorne - Get 20% off your order and free shipping!
JKL Media Reviews hosts Jesse, Karen, and Lou discuss The Expanse Season 3, Episode 10 "Dandelion Sky," opening with a suicide trigger warning and resources. They break down Anna's interaction with Lt. Nemeroff, his subsequent suicide, and Anna's regret and eulogy, focusing on faith, pride, and humility. The trio examines Holden's message ordering the crew not to follow, Amos's revelation that he hasn't felt fear since age five, and the bond between Amos and Alex. They analyze escalating tension between Drummer and Ashford (and Diogo's behavior), plus Clarissa/Melba's pursuit of revenge and her confrontation with Tilly. Finally, they unpack the confusing, 2001-style protomolecule sequence involving Holden, Miller/the Investigator, Bobbie, a grenade, and the sudden standstill inside the Ring bubble.
In this episode we continue our conversation with Jessica Francis Fichter and Colleen Francis about their new musical: Dandelion. DANDELION tells the poignant and uplifting story of Jane, a young woman who faces profound questions of responsibility and sacrifice when she must decide between attending college in pursuit of her lifelong dream, or staying home to care for her mother — who is struggling with severe mental illness and addiction. Jane navigates the ups and downs of her senior year of high school while her father tries to lighten the mood with his trademark dad jokes, her brother urges her to assert her own autonomy, and her goofy best friend Gabbie is always by her side to offer emotional support and wacky antics. At the same time, Lilah faces her own inner demons — personified onstage as the Voices — as she loses herself amid a sea of doctors' appointments, prescriptions, and hallucinatory episodes. When Jane leaves for a “Welcome Weekend” event at North College, Lilah's illness reaches a self-destructive turning point, forcing Jane to question whether her mother will be able to live alone safely without Jane, her little “Dandelion.” As family tensions and mounting pressures only worsen, and Lilah continually begs her to stay, Jane has to make the impossible decision to leave in the hopes of making her dreams — and Lilah's — come true. This episode features demo recordings of the songs “Start Again” performed by Kevin Perdido, as well as “Dandelion” performed by Hannah Bonnet and Sadie Wiskes.

In place of our regular Hudson Mohawk Magazine programing, today we share this episode of The Aunties Dandelion podcast called “Auntie Betty Osceola, Miccosukee, Panther Clan." Betty Osceola (Miccosukee, Panther Clan) grounds us in the spectacular land and life of the Everglades in this visit with host Kahstoserakwathe. She explains how the region's natural filtration system protects fresh water for millions, carries cultural memory for the Miccosukee Tribe of Indians of Florida, and sustains plant, animal, and water relatives. Betty is well known for her prayer walks that became especially urgent when the cruelty of the “Alligator Alcatraz” outdoor immigrant detention camp surfaced last summer on traditional homelands in South Florida, and her research is instrumental in ongoing lawsuits around the facility. She says our struggle for equitable treatment cannot be separated from the health and well-being of the natural world. Betty spent decades living what environmental justice looks like from an Indigenous perspective: caring for water as kin, community mobilization as a responsibility, and finding joy in walking, guiding, laughing, and listening. She asks us to consider how we reconnect to our own sources of care and to show up when the land says it needs us. This conversation is a clear invitation to walk our lands and raise our voices to protect the natural world and the humanity of our hearts. Stay to the end for her cute stories about mama ‘gators and their babies.

What can you actually do to support gallbladder health—before or after gallbladder removal?In Part 3 of our Gallbladder Series, we move from theory into practice. After exploring the relationship between the gallbladder, microbiome, hormones, and bile acids in Parts 1 and 2, we discuss the clinical tools, supplements, dietary strategies, and testing considerations we use to support patients with gallbladder dysfunction, bile acid disorders, and post-cholecystectomy symptoms. We explore why some patients continue to struggle with digestive symptoms long after gallbladder removal, how hormone fluctuations impact bile flow, and why supporting the microbiome may be one of the most overlooked pieces of gallbladder care.Whether you're dealing with gallstones, bile acid diarrhea, digestive symptoms after surgery, or simply want to better understand how to support healthy bile flow, this episode is packed with practical takeaways.✔ Conventional approaches to gallbladder disease and gallbladder removal✔ Why removing the gallbladder doesn't always solve the entire problem✔ The long-term microbiome consequences of cholecystectomy✔ The connection between gallbladder function, metabolism, and insulin resistance✔ Taurine and glycine for bile acid conjugation and bile production✔ Bitter herbs and how they support bile flow and gallbladder function✔ Dandelion, gentian, chicory, and other classic digestive bitters✔ Phosphatidylcholine, lecithin, and cholesterol balance within bile✔ Choline supplementation and gallbladder support✔ Magnesium and gallbladder motility✔ Ox bile, TUDCA, UDCA, and digestive enzyme support✔ Psyllium fiber and bile acid regulation✔ Butyrate and microbiome support after gallbladder removal✔ The estrogen–microbiome–gallbladder connection✔ DIM and calcium-d-glucarate for estrogen metabolism✔ NAC, milk thistle, and liver support✔ Hormone replacement therapy considerations in patients with gallbladder disease✔ Functional testing options for patients with gallbladder concerns✔ How these concepts have changed our clinical approach to patient care✔ Gallbladder removal may be necessary, but it should also prompt a deeper look at why gallbladder dysfunction developed in the first place.✔ Taurine, glycine, bitters, magnesium, and phosphatidylcholine can all play important roles in supporting bile production and flow.✔ The microbiome is central to bile acid metabolism and should be considered in patients with ongoing digestive symptoms.✔ DIM and calcium-d-glucarate may help support healthy estrogen metabolism and reduce gallbladder stress in susceptible individuals.✔ Post-cholecystectomy patients may benefit from additional support for digestion, microbiome balance, fat-soluble vitamins, and bile acid regulation.✔ Hormones, bile acids, the liver, and the microbiome are deeply interconnected systems that influence one another in meaningful ways.Part 1: Gallbladder Physiology, Bile Acids & The MicrobiomePart 2: The Estrogen–Gallbladder Connection: Hormones, Menopause & Bile AcidsPart 3: Practical Strategies for Supporting Gallbladder Health Before and After SurgeryMusic provided by Blue Dot.

Grieving Out Loud: A Mother Coping with Loss in the Opioid Epidemic
In the United States, nearly one in two adult women experience some form of unwanted sexual contact, and more than one in five have experienced completed or attempted rape, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The effects of that trauma can be profound and long-lasting, including an increased risk of substance use and addiction.On this episode of Grieving Out Loud, Lorie Seeking Land shares how a sexual assault at age 13 set her on a path she never expected. Carrying the shame and pain of that experience in silence, she turned to drugs to cope. What followed was a difficult journey marked by meth addiction, federal charges, and a 10-year prison sentence while she was pregnant.After her release, Lorie searched for someone who truly understood what she had been through, someone who had faced similar struggles and found a way forward. When she couldn't find that person, she decided to become that person herself.Today, Lorie is a certified peer coach with Face It Together, an addiction wellness nonprofit. More than eight years after leaving prison, she now walks back through those same prison doors, not as an inmate but as a mentor, helping incarcerated women heal, rediscover their worth, and prepare for life beyond incarceration.Hear Lorie's powerful story, what she wishes she had known earlier in life, and her message for anyone carrying the weight of shame, trauma, or addiction.Content Warning: This episode contains discussion of sexual assault.

Bridget St John in conversation with David Eastaugh English singer-songwriter and guitarist, best known for the three albums she recorded between 1969 and 1972 for John Peel's Dandelion record label. Peel produced her debut album, Ask Me No Questions. She also recorded a large number of BBC Radio and Peel sessions and toured regularly on the British college and festival circuit. St John appeared at leading folk venues in the UK, along with other folk and pop luminaries of the time such as Nick Drake, Paul Simon, and David Bowie, among others. In 1974 she was voted fifth most popular female singer in that year's Melody Maker readers poll. Blessed with a "rich cello-like" vocal style, she is also an accomplished guitar player who credits John Martyn and Michael Chapman as her "musical brothers".
We're in, and so are you if you're reading this. From squeezing your partner's butt to release stress, to bunions helpfully pointed out by your mother, to what women actually want over 50, quiet restaurants please, and no, don't expect us to do that, it's not happening. Learn a few interesting facts from Dunn, including how carrying your bits in your bra like it's a trendy crossbody is somehow acceptable now. It isn't. Dunn's son and his mates have coined a genuinely brilliant new phrase for a vagina, and, while we're asking questions, who exactly decided a glass dildo was a good idea? Then there's holibobs, and all the other daft words for going away. Jollies we'll allow. Unless it's a cheeky weekend, which of course only ever means one thing. And in this weather, a gentle plea, wash the bacteria out from under your arms before you spray, not instead of. On which note, how many days is acceptable for one pair of underpants? Rule of thumb, once you've gipped more than twice, it's gone too far. Dive in, it's genuinely worth a listen. Dandelion and Burdock, anyone?
Hosts: Ed Jones (Owner – Nutrition World) & Clint Powell A variety of topics all related to living a healthy life Presented by: Nutrition World www.nutritionw.com Broadcasting from the Nooga Dentistry Studio www.noogadentistry.com Production of: Whitfield Media Group www.vitalhealthradio.com Title: All about Spike Proteins with Dr. Glenn, Beyond Cholesterol & Better Heart Testing with Dr. Dearing [0:00:00] – Intro: Brian Johnson, Longevity & Oxalates + Farmers Market Light banter about: Ed coining the term “peak span” and using it in interviews. Ed's social media success (8.3 million views in 90 days). Joking about Ed doing a shirtless video and his bodybuilding competition and carb loading. Ed talks about Brian Johnson (longevity guru who spends ~$2M/year trying to live to 120): Johnson recently announced an autoimmune condition where his stomach is “eating its own stomach.” Ed admires his data and “Blueprint” protocol but believes two key factors in Johnson's regimen contributed to this issue. Ed teases that one factor is excess oxalate-rich foods; the other factor is left as a teaser for Ed's social media video. Ed announces a weekly farmers market at Nutrition World: Every Wednesday, inside the store, morning to mid-afternoon. Run by a young family with clean farming practices and minimal chemicals. Nutrition World does not profit from it; framed as a service to the community and support for small farmers. [0:05:04] – Upcoming Guests, Ed's E‑Books & Podcasts Ed previews two interviews for this episode: Dr. Glenn – testing and managing spike proteins. Dr. Curt Dearing – discussing his new book “Beyond Cholesterol” and non-traditional views on cardiovascular risk. Ed's e‑books: Six e‑books available on theholisticnavigator.com, including: Quality sleep Oxalates and pain “Are You Sick and Tired?” (diet & overall health) Oral health Immune system “Core Four” foundational supplements Podcasts: Ed mentions his Holistic Navigator podcast Clint promotes Nooga Podcasts (noogapodcasts.com) – a network of 20+ podcasts. [0:09:26] – Interview with Dr. Glenn: What Are Spike Proteins & Why They Matter Dr. Glenn defines spike proteins: Discovered in the 1960s, normally part of viruses from nature. Our immune system usually recognizes and dissolves natural spike proteins. For COVID-era, lab-made spike proteins: They are not recognized properly by the body. They can persist and are not efficiently eliminated. Mechanism (simplified): Spike proteins interact with ACE2 receptors (“locks” on the cell door). They unlock and open the cell doors, enter the cells, and damage/destroy cells from the inside. Clint notes he never heard the term “spike protein” before COVID; Dr. Glenn explains: Previously, they weren't an issue because the body just handled them. This is the first time in history we've dealt with lab-made spike proteins at scale. Dr. Glenn stresses this is not simply vaccinated vs. unvaccinated: mRNA vaccines were designed to produce spike proteins. But unvaccinated people with bad cases of COVID can also carry very high spike levels. His personal story: Got severe COVID in Jan 2020, pre-official naming: 2 weeks very ill on couch/bed. 3 months to feel “recovered,” but that was just the start of long-term issues. Over the next 3+ years, progressive cellular damage accumulated, leading to a broad set of symptoms. Dr. Glenn's symptoms when spikes were very high: Whites of eyes turned gray, with burning eyes all day (constant eye drops). Tinnitus (ringing in ears). Cyclical rashes under armpits. Burning nerves in quads; needed leg massage devices nightly to sleep. Gout attacks (kidneys not handling uric acid well). Venous congestion in lower left leg. Severe fatigue, getting sick frequently despite doing everything “right.” Developed endocarditis (inflammation of heart and valves); resting heart rate jumped from 55–60 to 80–105. Subtle Bell's palsy–type weakness on left side of face and brain symptoms. Laboratory findings: Test: SARS‑CoV‑2 spike protein antibody test (semi-quantitative). Thresholds: 1000: likely too high, potential cell damage. 5000: “a whole other level of danger.” His highest result: 11,694 (measured around Oct 28, 2023). Progress over four tests: 11,694 → 11,087 → ~9,950 → 8,905 (as of June 30, current year). Many symptoms have significantly improved, though: Heart rate better but not back to baseline. Tinnitus persists. Spike level is still high, so work remains. Symptoms can vary dramatically from person to person: Because spikes can enter different “doors” (cells/tissues) in different bodies. One person's profile may be mostly neurological; another's cardiovascular, etc. Dr. Glenn's clinic policy: He will not work with someone on issues like hormones, gut, or cognitive problems without a spike antibody test, because: Otherwise they may be “paddling upstream” against ongoing spike-related damage. Observation: Many patients say: “My doctor says my bloodwork is fine,” yet they feel terrible. Conventional doctors rarely order spike protein antibody tests [0:23:01] – Managing High Spike Proteins: Testing, Risk & Protocol Who Should Test & How: Ed notes frequent COVID infections (he's had it six times) and that many people have unexplained symptoms. Both Ed and Dr. Glenn suggest: Spike antibody testing should be considered for anyone with mysterious chronic symptoms, regardless of age or vaccination status. Testing can be done through labs like Be Well Labs (which Nutrition World works with) or other local options. Reference values: < 0.08 means essentially no exposure to COVID. Out of ~130 tests Dr. Glenn has reviewed, only one person was

This chemical was banned in Europe 20 years ago...so why is it in the tap water of over 40 million Americans? In this episode, Doctor Chris Motley breaks down what the research found on frogs exposed to Atrazine and what this means for you. The company that makes this herbicide went to great pains to keep this research hidden, but in this episode you'll learn how it can get into drinking water, the possible hormonal effects and - crucially - how you can keep your body safe from pesticides with a few simple steps and an assist from old medicine like TCM. Dr. Motley's recommendations: Get your water checked - This website provides some options: https://shorturl.at/cVi2F, and you can enter your zip code here for FREE info: https://shorturl.at/sXHO4 Filter your water (consider reverse osmosis if you're interested). Carbon block and reverse osmosis remove most atrazine from drinking water - https://doi.org/10.1016/j.envpol.2023.122936 If you find chemicals like Atrazine in your water, you'll want to support the body's filtering organs according to Chinese Medicine - your liver and kidneys. TCM in chronic kidney disease - https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9340222/ Here's How to Do That: Nothing complicated: drink cups of Dandelion tea, milk thistle or Chrysanthemum tea.

Grieving Out Loud: A Mother Coping with Loss in the Opioid Epidemic
She's walked the runway at New York Fashion Week, won titles like Miss Mt. Rushmore, and may soon have a documentary made about her life. But just a few years ago, Danica Miller was on a very different path.At just 13, she entered treatment for the first time, struggling with an addiction to inhalants. That struggle deepened over the years, leading to harder drugs, including meth, and at 19, a prison sentence after assaulting a law enforcement officer while intoxicated. With a felony on her record, rebuilding her life wasn't easy.After years of addiction and setbacks, Danica found her way to recovery, a journey shaped by pain, but also resilience. In this episode of Grieving Out Loud, she shares her story, showing that even in the darkest moments, change is possible, and how she's turned her past into something that now helps others.Learn more and follow Danica's Thrive Tribe group on Facebook here.Related episodes:The Dandelion in the WindowThe Voice You Knew — The Story You Didn'tDr. Sophie Two Hawk on Healing Native Communities from Addiction and TraumaSend us Fan MailBehind every number is a story of a life cut short, a family shattered, and a community devastated.They were...daughterssonsmothersfathersfriendswiveshusbandscousinsboyfriendsgirlfriends.They were More Than Just A Number.

Send us Fan MailThe Dandelion Moment — Podcast Summary & IG Clip PackageEpisode SummaryIn this emotional and deeply personal episode of the Yup. I Got You Podcast, Tombo Baldwin shares a powerful experience he calls “The Dandelion Moment.” What starts as a simple attempt to spray weeds in his lawn turns into a profound confrontation with conscience, authenticity, core values, and the quiet voice inside that knows when something is wrong.Blending humor, vulnerability, spirituality, quantum thinking, family love, forgiveness, and radical honesty, Tombo explores what happens when we violate our deepest values simply to satisfy outside pressure, appearances, expectations, or fear of judgment.Through the symbolism of dandelions, pollinators, neighborhood pressure, and lawn chemicals, this episode expands into a much larger conversation about addiction, offense, self-betrayal, healing, forgiveness, and choosing life-giving alignment over toxic compromise.One simple sentence from his wife — “You don't have to do this” — becomes a divine interruption that shifts the entire direction of the moment.This episode is funny, heartfelt, raw, reflective, emotional, and incredibly human.If you've ever ignored your inner voice… compromised your values… or needed permission to stop poisoning yourself emotionally, mentally, spiritually, or physically… this episode may hit you hard.REAL TALK.

In a study inspired by a field of dandelions, researchers wanted to know why, when you blow on a dandelion seed head, only the seeds closest to you take flight. They found that a dimple in the seed heads where the seed attaches is larger on one side than the other, and that the seeds consistently broke off from the smaller side of that dimple. Once they take flight, each dandelion seed uses its unique shape to catch a ride on the wind.PLUS: Infrasound, not ghosts, may be why old buildings give us the heebie-jeebiesThese arms are made for lovin'.

Pushback Talks Season 9 is here with "Word Food"!This season, Fredrik & Leilani return with their signature bite-sized episodes: sharp, surprising, 15-minute explorations of the words that shape our world. Each week, they pick a single word (or two) and unpack how its simple surface hides deeper social, political, and economic realities.Think of it as thought-provoking “intellectual snacking” – quick enough for your commute, rich enough to shift how you see power, privilege, and the systems around us.This week's episode:Occupied: How does the personal versus the political change the meanings of words?With the word occupied Leilani and Fredrik discuss what gets to take up a space, time or your mind. When illegal occupations and erasure of people are happening in several places around the world it's hard to not let negativity occupy your mind - how do we shift perspectives and what happens when we push another narrative forward? - Do other people follow suit? Dandelion: Often dismissed as a weed - the dandelion blooms despite dire conditions. While Fredrik philosophizes about the symbolism it carries, Leilani is reminded of the word's heritage. New episodes drop every week.Make this your ritual for keeping your curiosity – and your resistance – alive!Support the show
In this episode, I explore what it means to see clearly in a world that often does not want to see.I weave together personal stories of rage and anger and share the story of Cassandra, the woman who was never wrong yet never believed. I will talk about what that pattern feels like in the body and in everyday life. Living in the suburbs, raising children, and moving through a culture that feels disconnected from the earth, I speak honestly about the tension of holding truths that are not always welcomed.
Mother's Day is just around the corner. So what message do you have for your favourite mother in your life?

Grieving Out Loud: A Mother Coping with Loss in the Opioid Epidemic
When you grow up in a home where alcohol and drugs are part of everyday life, it can be difficult to avoid being pulled into a generational cycle of addiction. It becomes your normal, what you know, what surrounds you. And too often, it's intertwined with mental health struggles and abuse, making substances feel like a way to numb or escape the pain.That was the reality for today's guest on Grieving Out Loud, Toni Handboy. Her childhood was shaped by trauma and loss. She experienced abuse, and her parents were often absent because of addiction. She was eventually taken from her grandparents and separated from her Lakota roots, moving between foster homes before later ending up in a juvenile detention center.During that time, Toni says she battled depression and suicidal thoughts. In an effort to cope, she turned to substances, continuing the very cycle she grew up around, as her addiction began to impact her own children.But Toni's story doesn't end there. While many struggle to break free, she has overcome that generational cycle and has now been in recovery for nearly two decades. Today, she's not only rebuilding her life; she's helping others who are facing the same battle.In this episode of Grieving Out Loud, Toni shares her difficult but powerful story, what finally led her to seek help, and the message she hopes reaches those who feel trapped in addiction.Related episodes: Growing up in the shadow of addictionShe Promised It Would End With Her—Then It Didn'tDr. Sophie Two Hawk on Healing Native Communities from Addiction and TraumaSend us Fan MailBehind every number is a story of a life cut short, a family shattered, and a community devastated.They were...daughterssonsmothersfathersfriendswiveshusbandscousinsboyfriendsgirlfriends.They were More Than Just A Number.

Today's poem is You believed only a girl born of dandelion can be ferocious by Purvi Shah.The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. In this episode, Maggie writes… “Poems are meant to live in the air, to be read aloud, but I also know that form follows function. I want to see the choices the poet made when crafting the piece. Is the poem in couplets, tercets, or sturdy quatrains? Is it in one unbroken stanza with no white space? When I read a poem, knowing that form has the opportunity to enact, or at least reinforce, the content, I learn from the poet's choices. The stanza shape and length is an opportunity to embody something in the poem, so what did the poet go with? Maybe they chose couplets for a poem about two lovers or a parent and child. Or a prose poem for a piece that is more narrative and casually spoken. Or maybe the poem “explodes” across the field of the page, fragmented and uncontained.” This show is supported by gifts from listeners.

Neoborn Caveman lays out a clear-eyed, marble-mouthed pro-humanity take on the dandelion — the stubborn plant that pushes through pavement and neglect only to be met with industrial-scale poisoning because its greatest crime is growing for free in a world that demands a transaction for everything. NC traces its deliberate journey with European settlers as vital food and medicine, exposes “weed” as nothing more than an economic label for anything that refuses to generate revenue, presents the USDA's own data on its exceptional nutrient density in vitamins A and K plus minerals, examines its traditional diuretic action that replenishes potassium unlike synthetic drugs that create dependency, reviews the in-vitro lab work showing root extract triggering apoptosis in multiple cancer cell lines while sparing healthy cells and the quiet fate of the underfunded Health Canada trials, connects the dots on the multi-billion-dollar lawn care industry's chemical monoculture business model, draws the structural parallel to campaigns that individualize systemic problems, distinguishes funding incentives from conspiracy, and ends with the immediate, permission-free steps of stopping the sprays and harvesting clean dandelions for salads, tea, root coffee and more along with basic safety notes.Key TakeawaysDandelions thrive without resources or permission yet face industrial eradication because they offer value outside commercial transactions.Weed is an economic category for any plant that grows without generating a transaction rather than a scientific classification.European settlers brought dandelions to North America on purpose as essential food and medicine.Dandelion greens rank among the most nutrient-dense leafy vegetables per USDA data with extreme levels of vitamins A and K plus minerals.The plant's diuretic action supplies potassium to offset what it removes unlike pharmaceuticals that create deficiencies requiring additional purchases.Laboratory research shows dandelion root extract triggers programmed cell death in multiple cancer cell types while leaving healthy cells unaffected.Research funding and trials for non-patentable wild plants receive far less support than commercializable pharmaceutical alternatives.The lawn care industry profits billions by framing free nutritious plants as failures in chemically maintained monocultures.Structural economic incentives redirect responsibility from institutions to individuals in patterns like carbon footprint campaigns.The ground still produces unmonetized food and medicine that requires only clean harvesting and basic caution for most people.Sound Bites"European settlers brought dandelions to North America on purpose.""weed is not a botanical classification — it has no scientific content at all... it is an economic category, and what it means is: a plant that grows without generating a transaction. That is the offence.""the fact that it is free is the problem.""A hundred grams of raw dandelion leaves delivers around 10,000 IU of vitamin A... and the vitamin K content runs to roughly 650 percent of the daily value.""the dandelion leaf contains potassium at concentrations around 4.5 percent of dry weight... the plant provides more potassium than is lost through the diuresis it induces.""the suppression is structural, not conspiratorial... there is only a system that was built to serve certain interests and is functioning exactly as designed.""What a person can do with this information is small and immediate and does not require anyone's permission: stop spraying."Support the show and join the free tea house conversation at patreon.com/theneoborncavemanshow .Keywords: dandelion, taraxacum officinale, weed economics, nutrient dense greens, natural diuretic, dandelion root extract, lawn care industry critique, structural research funding, free food medicine, pro-humanity satireHumanity centered satirical takes on the world & news + music - with a marble mouthed host.Free speech marinated in comedy.Supporting Purple Rabbits.Viva los Conejos Morados.

Join Here: https://ow.ly/msoH50WCu0KAnalytic Dreamz dives deep into Ella Langley's sophomore major-label album Dandelion, released April 10, 2026. This 18-track project arrives as the most talked-about country album of 2026 so far, debuting at #1 on iTunes as the most-downloaded release of the day and positioning itself as a strong contender for the Billboard 200. The album builds directly on the historic success of lead single “Choosin' Texas,” which spent 6+ non-consecutive weeks at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100—surpassing Taylor Swift's record for the longest-running #1 by a female country artist—and 19-20 consecutive weeks atop Hot Country Songs. It became the first country song by a woman to simultaneously lead Hot 100, Hot Country Songs, and Country Airplay, while also driving streaming dominance with 7 weeks at #1 on Streaming Songs and 26.6 million U.S. streams in one week alone. “Be Her” added to the momentum, jumping to #2 on Streaming Songs with 14.8 million weekly streams and helping Langley become the first female artist to hold #1 and #2 simultaneously on that chart with country songs. Dandelion blends traditional country nostalgia with modern songwriting clarity, drawing influences from Neil Young, Kacey Musgraves, Willie Nelson, Chris Stapleton, Patsy Cline, and more. Key collaborators include Miranda Lambert as co-writer on “Choosin' Texas,” co-producer of the album, and featured artist on “Butterfly Season.” The full tracklist features standout cuts like the title track, “We Know Us,” “Low Lights,” “Loving Life Again,” the Kitty Wells cover “It Wasn't God Who Made Honky Tonk Angels,” and bookend intros/outros of “Froggy Went A Courtin'.” Early critical reception highlights the album's emotional honesty, timeless storytelling, and peak Shania Twain-level vocal versatility, with reviewers calling Langley a nostalgist focused on songs built to last. The project signals a broader shift for women in country music, amid rising commercial and critical momentum for artists like Langley, Megan Moroney, and Lainey Wilson. Analytic Dreamz breaks down every segment of Dandelion, its record-breaking chart impact, musical style, and what this moment means for Ella Langley's career as a multi-genre force.

We've come to the end of the “mainstream” top-40 best-selling herbs list! Dandelion, rhubarb, and ginseng take the last three spots.Dandelion is an herbal workhorse. It's inexpensive because it's ubiquitous, and its resilience is legendary – dandelion coming up through the concrete is one of the herbalist's favorite symbols of resistance and the power of nature. Much more than a simple “detox” herb, dandelion root and leaf improve the functions of our liver and kidneys, feed both us and our gut flora, and eliminate excess fluids from the system. Its bright yellow flowers can even lift our spirits when taken in tincture or wine – this is one of Ryn's indispensable herbal remedies for the winter doldrums.Rhubarb root used to be much more of an herbal mainstay than it is in contemporary herbalism. The Eclectics of the 19th century worked with it extensively, largely for its “cathartic” – stimulant laxative – properties. It is a key ingredient in the famous “neutralizing cordial”, a formula developed in that era and designed to be a nearly-universal remedy for digestive upsets of all sorts. This remedy is still prepared by herbalists today, though often with some variations in the ingredient list.Ginseng needs no introduction. It is one of the most famous medicinal herbs in the world, and it is “the original adaptogen” – the category which has spawned millions of dollars in product sales in our stressed-out, depleted, fatigued society. Ginseng products can be extremely helpful, but you absolutely cannot simply buy the first one you find: these remedies are very prone to adulteration. That, too, is an old problem: historical texts are littered with descriptions of adulteration and falsification of supposedly mature, supposedly Panax roots which were nothing of the kind. Some things never change…CLICK HERE FOR FULL SHOW NOTES & REFERENCES“Detox” came up in this episode (again), and we hinted at the issues rampant in this category of supplement products. For the full story, you'll want to dig in to our course Elements of Detoxification. This course takes a fresh look at the concepts of “toxicity” and “detoxification”, a holistic perspective that goes beyond “cleanses” and products.

And so, March slides easily away between the trees, whispering of storm clouds, sudden frost, and sunshine on new bloomed wild plums.She leaves stars of chickweed in the grass and dandelions lifting bright and eager faces to the sky.She holds the door for April, who is nudging her way in, skirts wide and capable, dotted with dogwood blossoms and redbud flowers.There are lilacs in her hair and violets on her shoes and lilies in her hands.We rise to greet her, hands outstretched in welcome, turning briefly to wave to March as she backs away,having done what she could with what she had to bless the land, to remind us of the bond between body and soil,between root and bone, between bloom and blood.Thank you,we wave,blowing a kiss as April sweeps across the threshold and catches us up in her danceof emerging.Welcome to this week's Rituals of Returning newsletter!

This one is about a boy who lives in a tower in a world of darkness except for the light that comes from “Sunstones” that they have to charge with light beyond the “veil” that surrounded their world. He falls off the tower into another land of ice and snow and has to try to get back to the tower. So far, it is pretty interesting, though my daughter doesn't really like it.(listening to with Tanner): Hatchet—the survival classic for pre-teen boys, we've already listened to this one before and Tanner has read it to himself (and I've also read it to myself as a kid). About a boy who gets in a plane crash on his way to Alaska and has to survive with only a hatchet to keep him company.(listen to self): Warrior Girl Unearthed—I've just barely begun this one, it is the second book following Firekeeper's Daughter and is about the twin nieces of the main character in the first book. It might a little much for me right on the heels of the other one, so I might take a break from listening to it.Thinking about:Doing more local events—I'm reading at PoetSpeak in town again next weekend and was invited to come to a local authors event at the library in a neighboring county for this month as well.

At the table: Eric Baker, Dagne Forrest, Tobi Kassim, Jason Schneiderman, Kathleen Volk Miller, Lisa Zerkle, Lillie Volpe (sound engineer) We made it back from AWP, Slushies! Welcome to any new listeners who have joined our audience since seeing us there. And please join us in welcoming our longtime reader, Eric Baker, to the table. We're honored to discuss three poems from Jane Zwart. Once again, we call on Jason's knowledge of meter and syntax. Here we look at how the recursive syntax, like the memory of the woman in the poem, loops back on itself. The poem's epigraph places the reader in the cultural moment of the Great Depression and World War II era. Inherited family treasures, like Noritake China, carry memory. The poem echoed, for Dagne, one of Michael Montlack's poems from Episode 144. The team is charmed by Zwart's use of unexpected words like “redoubt” and “hypotenuse” in the second poem. Kathy notes that the poem is successful at conveying sentiment without slipping into the sentimental. She admires the use of the word “startlement” and we realize we'll be seeing more of it given Ada Limón's new book of the same name. Jason admires the ending's gentle touch, which lands on a lilt. In a happy synchronicity, the final poem's take on springtime's fickle nature matches our exasperation with the changeable weather. While the poem's postpositive placement of adjectives sends us back to elementary school grammar, we're enthralled with how such a simple reversal refreshes our attention. Thanks, as always, for listening! Author Bio: Jane Zwart teaches at Calvin University and co-edits book review for Plume. Her poems have appeared in Poetry, Ploughshares, The Southern Review, Threepenny Review, and The Nation. Her first collection of poems came out with Orison Books in February 2026. Author Website: janezwart.com Blue Sky: @janezwart.bsky.social Inheritance for Janet Knol, 1922 - 2019 I took the china from occupied Japan just as my uncles took seconds of corn. It wasn't about taste. Or want. When it came to last helpings, the starving children were conveniences, the tureen gratuitous, and if they were about wanting— Janet's divestments—wanting was nothing so forthright as hunger: my uncles eating for two, themselves and their mother; my wishing that teacups edged in corsage were my cup of tea; or, reared to hoard and abhor waste, my grandma's berating herself for an ingrate when each windfall knocked the wind from her, the handsome earner she wed, the sons they made. My grandma didn't dare ask for more, and God knows she didn't dare ask for less. There were reasons, of course. Some, in an expansive mood, she could name. Hunger, her father, and from that summer so hot no one slept, one extravagance— to drive, windows down, for the relief of a breeze. From her, my dad learned to waste nothing. But on what more to ask of life she left no instructions, so my dad cannot say what he wants for his birthday. Instead, he'll tell you he has all he needs, as if need were the whole of deserving, as if all the years' wisdom were getting on with what was. And from him, I learned. Waste nothing; get on with what is. Of the heirlooms, these come in handy. Still, if they were about wanting— Janet's divestments—they were not about choosing, though, in the end, my grandma had enough of pretending that what she had was enough and asked her sons to brush her hair when it didn't need brushing and left the corn on her tray. Hold my hand, she told me, then slipped in and out of knowing I held her hand until she slipped out and out and back into her father's car, its windows were down, and I'll tell you the breeze forgave everything: hunger and waste, want and wanting things to be otherwise, betrayal, demural, even the mezcal— even the time we sipped it from her Noritake when no other glasses were clean. I steal from children who do not hide their tests with a forearm, and I steal from those who do. I steal the soft redoubt an arm makes around a field of tents, their calculable heights, and I steal the stickman roughing it in a lean-to of unknown hypotenuse. Of my sons' wonder, I'm the chief plagiarist. Of their neologisms, the unauthorized scribe. Without asking, I borrow a kid's ardor for tire swings, his grief for lost dogs. I steal what I've mislaid: the art of startlement, the art of artlessness. Rabbit Redux Not spring, but its fickle scout: from the park, the smell of skunk and the skunk of weed; in gardens, exhumed saints and righted gnomes. Robin redux, rabbit redux—season of small resentments, the hassle of jackets, the discrepant grass. Of pent-up revving, of soft-serve soft openings. Season of ephemerals, the old bundled as if for the tundra. Season of warblers, the young rouged in dandelion, riding the oaks bareback.

50: Chapter 48. Dea ex Machina This episode is scripted by John Ruths and Newell Fisher. This is the only Chapter in WD written from a human perspective. The phrase "Deus ex Machina" means "the god in the machine" In a story, it signifies a highly unlikely event that resolves an issue, saves someone and provides a happy conclusion. However...this chapter is called DEA ex Machina, meaning the "Goddess in the Machine". When we read the beginning of the chapter and we see the name "Lucy", we know that she must be the "Dea ex Machina". The pre-chapter quote is from the poem, Fern Hill by Dylan Thomas. It is about an idyllic childhood spent on a farm. It is such a childhood that, arguably, saves Hazel. We begin with Lucy, the farm girl from Nuthanger. It's early and she's just waking up. When we hear about the possibility of a dog barking, we can link it to when the farm dog was alerted and broke away as he tore off after Dandelion. Lucy hears a "sharp sound" and it's a squealing. This gets Lucy up to see what the source of the sound is. Thinking it's most likely a rat, Lucy sees that it's actually a rabbit! Lucy has a brief confrontation with Tab, one of the farm's resident cats. She takes hold of the rabbit that we know to be our very own Hazel. Just as with the adults at the farm, it's interesting how Adams lays out how she speaks English, reflecting her Hampshire accent. Hazel in her arms, Lucy encounters her father. He explains in his own way that to keep a wild rabbit in a hutch is a death sentence. Her father also defends what the farm cat was doing; and in reality, he's quite right. Her father asks Lucy to hand over Hazel. We the reader know what this means. Lucy cries. She knows her father is right but she's understandably upset. Lucy wins out. She wants to show the rabbit to the visiting doctor. Lucy goes upstairs, temporarily places Hazel in a drawer, gets some "cloze" on, and will soon meet the doctor. The dog is back, spotted coming up the lane by the doctor, and we now know that it is a Black Labrador. He's clearly been in a fight. If nothing else, we know that General Woundwort did fight back, given the dog's leg bite and scratched nose. We also learn, in passing, that the dog's name is Bob. The doctor, whose name interestingly is Adams, sees Lucy's mother first and thinks he'll have time to look at Hazel. Hazel is given an impromptu physical exam. While Adams is a fan of providing us with multiple points of view, we don't get Hazel's thoughts at all. In this one chapter he is portrayed as humans see him: a dumb animal. The doctor acknowledges his wounded leg which he received right there at the farm, a recent cat scratch, and reinforces for Lucy that this rabbit cannot live in a hutch. The doctor makes an offer. Lucy can go with him on his next house call and Hazel can be dropped off in a location along the way. Luckily for him, Hazel is dropped off on the single track road that lies to the west of WD, on the ridge between it and Hare Warren Down. The just dropped off Hazel seems to have gone temporarily tharn but comes to himself after about half a minute and quickly gets away. As he departs, the doctor confirms his leg wound. Of course, we readers already know this. As Hazel is never named in this chapter, it simply confirms again who this rabbit is. The doctor states "he could perfectly well live for years" and that seems quite hopeful. This 'rabbit' has certainly earned this in our eyes. And it will prove to be the case so even the doctor's observation is foreshadowing in a good way. Funnily enough the chapter ends with the Doctor making a reference to the song "Born and Bred in a Briar Patch" from the 1946 Disney movie "Song of the South". And so our brief foray into the human world ends.

Day 1,418.Today, as thousands remain without power in Kyiv, we examine President Zelensky's pledge to carry out more operations “inside” Russia and analyse Moscow's latest tank and weapons innovations. We then unpack an extraordinary outburst from a Russian spokesperson, who dismissed the “wet dreams of British perverts”, before considering what the fall of Iran's regime would mean for the war in Ukraine. Later, we return to the issue of Ukraine's stolen children, with new details on the military training they are being forced to undergo.ContributorsFrancis Dearnley (Executive Editor for Audio). @FrancisDearnley on X.Dominic Nicholls (Associate Editor of Defence). @DomNicholls on X.Adélie Pojzman-Pontay (Journalist and Producer). @adeliepjz on X.With thanks to Olesia Bida (Journalist, The Kyiv Independent's War Crimes investigations). @olesyabida on X.SIGN UP TO THE ‘UKRAINE: THE LATEST' WEEKLY NEWSLETTER:http://telegraph.co.uk/ukrainenewsletter Each week, Dom Nicholls and Francis Dearnley answer your questions, provide recommended reading, and give exclusive analysis and behind-the-scenes insights – plus maps of the frontlines and diagrams of weapons to complement our daily reporting.
