The BBC has since updated that reporting to reflect that a report from the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification estimates that 14,100 severe cases of acute malnutrition could occur among children in Gaza ages 6 to 59 months between April 2025 and March 2026.

The Jeffrey Epstein crimes are no laughing matter, but the idea promoted by the top two officials at the FBI, Kash Patel and Dan Bongino, that Epstein killed himself in a prison cell, certainly is. In fact, that's precisely how commentator Tucker Carlson reacted when he and a guest discussed the purported coverup of Epstein's murder that appeares to be continuing apace under the new FBI leadership Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss why Tucker's guffaws are the only logical response to what Patel and Bongino are slinging. Plus segments on Trump's newly proposed $175 billion dollar “Golden Dome” boondoggle, Bernie Sanders admitting that the Democratic Party is corrupt and new FDA recommendations for the COVID vaccine boosters.

Hi friends, happy Wednesday! As a country, America has always had a complicated relationship with dairy. One month we hate it, the next month, some weird cottage cheese recipe goes viral, and we're all over it again. But here's something I thought was a little strange. You never hear about dairy farmers or the dairy industry going bankrupt. It made me wonder why. Turns out… the dairy industry is in bed with the government. Why? Because the government desperately needs them not to fail. And that's just the tip of the string cheese. We've been brainwashed into thinking we *need* dairy from the time we were kids. And there's a wild reason for that. It involves Marie Antoinette, cheese caves, and… Dominoes? Guys… this is a wild one. And I'm not going to lie… you might think twice before ordering your next Taco Bell burrito. Welcome to the Dark History of Big Dairy! I appreciate you for coming by, and tune in next week for more Dark History. I sometimes talk about my Good Reads in the show. So here's the link if you want to check it out.

As Congressional Republicans try to pass President Donald Trump's 'big, beautiful bill' through the House and Senate, Medicaid is one of the big programs in the party's legislative crosshairs. GOP lawmakers are eyeing upwards of $800 billion in cuts to the safety net health care program over the next decade, in part by imposing new work and eligibility requirements for recipients. But while the president keeps insisting 'no cuts to Medicaid,' the government's calculations suggest the party's plan could cost 10 million Americans their health care coverage. Matt Bruenig, founder of the People's Policy Project, explains why work requirements don't work.And in headlines: Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem got her constitutional rights all mixed up during a Senate hearing, Trump's FDA looks to limit access to Covid booster shots, and New Jersey U.S. Congresswoman LaMonica McIver is charged with assault.Show Notes:Check out Matt's column –www.nytimes.com/2025/05/16/opinion/medicaid-work-requirements-pointless.htmlSubscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

Low libido happens, but it's how you CHOOSE to deal with it. Jennie is sitting down with the incredible self-made serial entrepreneur, Cindy Eckert, to talk about how this female founder brought the little pink pill, Addyi, that is the first-ever FDA-approved drug for low sexual desire in women, to the mainstream market! Let's talk about sex! Let's end the stigma! Follow the "I Choose Me" Podcast on Instagram and TikTok Follow Jennie on Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook ADDYI is for premenopausal women with acquired, generalized hypoactive (low) sexual desire disorder who have not had problems with low sexual desire in the past, and who have low sexual desire no matter the type of sexual activity, the situation or the sexual partner. The low sexual desire is troubling to them and is not due to a medical or mental health problem, problems in the relationship or medicine or other drug use. ADDYI is not for use in men or to enhance sexual performance. Your risk of severe low blood pressure and fainting is increased if you drink 1-2 standard alcoholic drinks close in time to your ADDYI dose. Wait at least 2 hours after drinking before taking ADDYI at bedtime. Your risk of severe low blood pressure and fainting is also increased if you take certain prescription, over the counter or herbal medications, or have liver problems. Low blood pressure and fainting can happen when you take ADDYI even if you don't drink alcohol or take other medicines. Do not take if you are allergic to any of the ingredients in ADDYI. Allergic reactions may include hives, itching or trouble breathing. Sleepiness, sometimes serious, can occur. Common side effects include dizziness, nausea, tiredness, difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep and dry mouth.

Trump Defends Biden, Blames “Board of Directors” for Border Crisis – In a viral post, President Trump says Joe Biden wasn't behind open borders—his cognitive decline left key decisions to unelected handlers, including Jill and Hunter Biden. New details from a Jake Tapper book and medical insiders back up claims of hidden dementia and cancer diagnoses during Biden's presidency. House Republicans now plan oversight hearings on what they call “the fraud presidency.” Wind for Gas Deal: Trump Trades Turbines for Pipelines – Trump strikes a deal with New York's Governor Hochul: a $5B wind farm off Long Island moves forward in exchange for greenlighting a long-blocked natural gas pipeline from Pennsylvania. Critics call it a “dirty green deal,” but Trump allies say it's smart leverage to restore energy reliability. “Golden Dome” Missile Shield Unveiled – Trump formally launches a national missile defense initiative to stop hypersonic threats from China and Russia. The plan combines space-based sensors and interceptors, potentially costing hundreds of billions—unless satellites are leased from Elon Musk. FDA Shifts Course on COVID Shots – Healthy Americans under 65 no longer need routine COVID boosters, the FDA says. Critics say the change came too late and still doesn't address obesity, which remains a top risk factor. HHS Secretary RFK Jr. is expected to soon launch a “Take Back Your Health” national campaign. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." – John 8:32
It's Wednesday, May 21st, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus British national Muslim fighters committed war crimes A recent report from the U.K. parliament found that hundreds of Islamic fighters have returned to England without facing prosecution. British nationals joined the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria between 2014 and 2019. The group targeted religious minorities and committed many war crimes. Since then, over 400 Islamic State fighters have returned to the U.K. However, the country's government has not prosecuted any of them for international crimes. Christians have faced high levels of persecution from Islamic fighters in Iraq and Syria. Both countries are ranked on the Open Doors' World Watch List of nations where it is most dangerous to be a Christian. Ecclesiastes 8:11-12 says, “Because the sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil. Though a sinner does evil a hundred times, and his days are prolonged, yet I surely know that it will be well with those who fear God, who fear before Him.” Trump to Putin: “When are we going to end this bloodbath?” U.S. President Donald Trump spoke with Russian President Vladimir Putin about the war in Ukraine on Monday. Trump said Russia and Ukraine would immediately start negotiations toward a ceasefire. He noted that the new Roman Catholic pope, Leo XIV, has offered to host the talks at the Vatican. President Trump warned that the United States would back out of the situation if both sides can't reach an agreement. Listen. TRUMP: “I said, ‘When are we going to end this Vladimir?' I've known him for a long time now. I said, ‘When are we going to end this blood bath?' It's a blood bath. I think it'd be great to have it at the Vatican. There's tremendous bitterness, anger, and I think maybe that could help some of that anger.” Trump dropped $37 million fine against Christian University The Trump administration dropped a $37 million fine against the largest Christian university in America Initially, Biden's Department of Education leveled the fine against Grand Canyon University. Brian Mueller, the president of the university, said, “The facts clearly support our contention that we were wrongly accused of misleading our Doctoral students and we appreciate the recognition that those accusations were without merit.” Ellen Keast, an Education Department spokeswoman, noted, “Unlike the previous administration, we will not persecute and prosecute colleges and universities based on their religious affiliation.” FDA discouraging young, healthy Americans from getting COVID shot On Tuesday, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced new rules for its approval of COVID-19 shots. The FDA said it will require more research before approving yearly COVID-19 boosters for young, healthy Americans. The shots will still be approved for adults over 65 and for people with health problems that put them at higher risk. FDA officials noted, “The FDA will approve vaccines for high-risk persons and, at the same time, demand robust, gold-standard data on persons at low risk.” Man kills self, injured 4 outside in vitro clinic On Saturday, a car bomb was detonated outside an in vitro fertilization clinic called the American Reproductive Center in Los Angeles. The blast killed 25-year-old suspect Guy Edward Bartkus and injured four other people. The in vitro fertilization facility was damaged, but the embryos stored inside were saved. Bartkus reportedly left behind a manifesto on a website. In it, he said he wanted to start “a war against pro-lifers” and “begin the process of sterilizing this planet of the disease of life.” Urge 19 Republican Congressmen to DEFUND Planned Parenthood Today, the House Rules Committee will have a hearing and vote on President Trump's “big, beautiful bill” to determine what budget items go to the House floor. If even a single amendment is added, the momentum we've built to stop funding Planned Parenthood and Big Abortion could vanish, reports Liberty Counsel Action. This is the last vote before the bill is placed on the House floor. Two conservative Republicans who voted “present” on Sunday night are also on the Rules Committee. The full House could vote on this bill as early as later today. Remember, there are 220 Republicans and 213 Democrats. Because the GOP majority is so slim, we need every one of them. Three moderate House Republicans are carrying the water for Planned Parenthood and pushing House leaders to continue funding the Murder Giant. Those three pro-abortion Republican Representatives include Mike Lawler (R-NY), Jen Kiggans (R-VA), and Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA). These members are exerting significant pressure on House leadership to give up defunding Planned Parenthood and Big Abortion. We are on the cusp of victory, and we cannot allow this effort to fail. There are 19 key Republicans in leadership who need to hear from us. I've listed them in our transcript today along with a 3-sentence message you could read when you call today at www.TheWorldview.com. Do not hesitate to leave a voicemail. Call as many of them as you can as early as you can! Email me at Adam@TheWorldview.com to let me know how many Congressmen you and your family members called. SAMPLE CALL: “I am calling to urge Representative _______ to defund Planned Parenthood. Nearly 60 percent of Americans oppose tax-funded abortion.

Monica De La Cruz (R-TX) – (202) 225-2531 Kay Arthur, who showed how to study the Bible, died at 91 And finally, Kay Arthur, the beloved co-founder of Precept Ministries International and a pioneering advocate for inductive Bible study, died yesterday in Chattanooga, Tennessee, according to the Roys Report. She was 91. In an announcement on the Precept website, her ministry said, Kay “will be remembered for her love for the Lord, His Word, and His people.” A prolific author, Arthur wrote more than 100 books and Bible studies over her lifetime including her bestseller, Lord, Teach Me to Study the Bible in 28 Days. ARTHUR: “People need to discover truth for themselves because God promises in His word that He has given us everything that pertains, not only to life, but also to godliness, so that we might be fitted for every good work, so that nothing can come our way and throw us. “God is doing a work in their lives because the only text that they are looking at is the Bible, which is alive and powerful and sharper than any two-edged sword. It's a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. It is a light unto our path. It's the very Word by which we live. It's the Sword by which we stand against the enemy." She often said, “When you know what God says, what He means, and how to put His truths into practice, you will be equipped for every circumstance of life.” Through Precept's inductive Bible study method—teaching believers to observe, interpret, and apply Scripture—Arthur equipped millions around the world to study the Bible for themselves. Indeed, the ministry was heard in 150 countries in 70 different languages. Close And that's The Worldview on this Wednesday, May 21st, in the year of our Lord 2025.

Nurses Out Loud – Through FOIA-revealed emails, we reveal FDA's hidden knowledge of menstrual irregularities, fertility concerns, and neurological harms, while public messaging spins 'safe and effective.' We expose media complicity in silencing vaccine-injured Americans, amplifying nurses, parents, veterans, and whistleblowers. This is a reckoning demanding moral courage in medicine's next imminent looming crisis.

You have to do it properly, but it does work. As far as what kind of results or benefits you get from it, the first time you use it, you see a boost immediately.” - Sam Itshaki“A lot of men are kind of ashamed of getting it, and I think there's no reason to be ashamed. Men don't talk about sexual health with their friends, at least most men don't. I think if men knew how many other people, how many of their friends may be using a pump, they would be surprised and not ashamed at all.” - Sam Itshaki==========================Need help launching your podcast?Schedule a Free Podcast Strategy Call TODAY!PodcastLaunchLabNow.com==========================SOCIAL MEDIA LINKSSebastian RuskInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/podcastlaunchlab/Facebook: Facebook.com/sruskLinkedIn: LinkedIn.com/in/sebastianrusk/YouTube: Youtube.com/@PodcastLaunchLabSam ItshakiInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/mrgetbiggernow/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/samitny/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sam-itshaki/WEBSITESGet Bigger Now: https://getbiggernow.com/Dr. Joel Kaplan: https://doctorjoelkaplan.com/Byoform: https://byoform.com/==========================Take the quiz now! https://podcastquiz.online/==========================Need Money For Your Business?

Eating crickets and meat grown in a lab with cancer-like cells - WHO APPROVED THAT?! Scott Tips, president of the National Health Federation (NHF) and internationally recognized health freedom attorney, joins host, Jamie Belz, to help us understand the deeper mechanisms of Codex Alimentarius, the World Trade Organization (WTO), and the global regulatory web that threatens access to nutrient-dense food, natural health remedies, and therapeutic supplements. As the only health-freedom organization with official INGO (International Non-Governmental Organization) status at Codex, NHF is uniquely positioned to stand up for the public's right to safe, informed, and autonomous healthcare choices on the global stage. Over the last 70 years, NHF has defended medical choice and challenged the federal government's overreach into nutrition, supplementation, and holistic healing. Some quick topics/snippets from this episode: Codex creates international food law—affecting everything from vitamin dosage limits to whether or not your meat contains drug residues. Most people don't even know Codex exists. And yet, decisions made there determine what shows up in your grocery cart, your supplement bottle, and your child's plate. The U.S. can now force genetically modified foods into countries that don't want them — not through diplomacy, but through international tribunals using Codex standards as their weapon. Ractopamine is a drug with zero therapeutic value. It makes animals fatter, faster — but it's banned in the EU, China, and Russia. In the U.S., you're probably eating it. When you hear ‘scientific consensus,' be cautious. The phrase is used to bulldoze public concern. You can be banned for calling out corruption at Codex. At CODEX, NHF is the only one defending your right to natural health freedom. The EU, Russia, even Iran — they've stood up for consumer safety at Codex more than the U.S. delegates have. The scary thing isn't just what the FDA is doing. It's how many people still trust them, blindly — even when their actions have harmed more people than every U.S. war combined. We need advocacy from the ground up. Most parents feeding their kids toxic food don't even know it — because the truth has been buried. “Frankenmeat”, insect protein, and natural flavoring cover-ups, all of which bypass transparent labeling laws while being quietly introduced into the food supply. They're trying to outlaw homeopathy—while promoting lab-grown meat and insect protein as sustainable alternatives. We don't want to be right. We want to get it right. “Unless we put medical freedom into the Constitution, the time will come when medicine will organize into an undercover dictatorship… To restrict the art of healing to one class of men and deny equal privileges to others will constitute the Bastille of medical science. All such laws are un-American and despotic.” - Dr. Benjamin Rush, Declaration of Independence signator and Surgeon General of the Continental Army "If people let the government decide what foods they eat and what medicines they take, their bodies will soon be in as sorry a state as the souls of those who live under tyranny.” - Thomas Jefferson TAKE ACTION: Join the National Health Federation for only $45/year to support international advocacy at Codex and receive the quarterly NHF magazine. This low-cost membership helps fund independent watchdog efforts that no other organization is legally authorized to perform at the global level. JOIN HERE Other mentions: Ep 034: Fight For Your Right To Health Freedom The HighWire report exposing Peter Marks and vaccine data suppression Health freedom is necessary. As government and corporate interests grow more entangled, grassroots advocacy is no longer optional. It's essential. Join the NHF and become part of the movement to reclaim sovereignty over what we eat, how we heal, and what we're allowed to know.
Mark LaPalme spent years in active addiction and was arrested upwards of 40 times. He couldn't have imagined he'd one day be at the forefront of addiction recovery. But after finding freedom through his own recovery journey, he built a network of treatment centers in Kentucky called Isaiah House that would become a lifeline for thousands, and the unlikely site of a groundbreaking clinical trial. In this episode, we explore what happened when Mark said yes to testing a new detox device called Neuro-Electric Therapy (NET) that promised big things in a small package. What followed was both deeply personal and quietly revolutionary, resulting in FDA clearance in 2024. The future of detox (and how it will reshape addiction treatment) is here. Mark is a masterful storyteller and passionate advocate, living out his values in inspiring ways as he continues to work to save every life and give every person hope that he can. He describes watching people on NET as watching "a miracle happen before your eyes." If this episode moved you, taught you something new, or sparked hope, please leave a review!

Assessing Recurrence Following Pulsed Field Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation Guest: Nicholas Tan, M.D., M.S. Host: Anthony H. Kashou, M.D. Pulsed field ablation has been rapidly adopted across the United States since FDA approval was granted 1 year ago, due to its excellent acute efficacy, favorable safety profile, and fast workflow. However, recurrences post-ablation are comparable to that of previously established modalities, making this a significant hurdle that has yet to be overcome. Changes to mapping/ablation strategies, updates to PFA parameters, autonomic modulation, and combination modality ablations (PFA/RFA) offer some avenues for improvement Topics Discussed: What is pulsed field ablation (PFA) and how does it differ from previously established modalities of ablation such as radiofrequency and cryoablation? What are the recurrence rates post-PFA and how do they compare with other modalities? In patients who undergo redo ablations following an index PFA procedure, what are the most common causes (i.e. reconnection of pulmonary veins versus new sites)? How do you think PFA will evolve in the coming years Connect with Mayo Clinic's Cardiovascular Continuing Medical Education online at https://cveducation.mayo.edu or on Twitter @MayoClinicCV and @MayoCVservices.

If you want glowing, youthful skin, you must work from the inside out. Discover one of the best anti-aging foods for your skin to add to your diet today! 0:00 Introduction: How to look younger 1:46 The best anti-aging food4:27 Collagen and anti-aging4:52 The best anti-aging diet Is your beauty routine actually aging you? The creams and lotions you think are helping your skin could have plastics, toxic chemicals, and hidden carcinogens. Even the products containing collagen will not be absorbed topically through the skin.Over-cleansing and excess scrubbing destroy your skin's microbiome. Tap water contains fluoride and chlorine, which are toxic and damaging to the skin. A filter for your shower can help.Statins can also destroy youthful skin. They block cholesterol, which is essential for skin health and integrity. The FDA does not do third-party testing on the chemicals in your anti-aging products. The EU has banned 1600 cosmetic ingredients, while the US has only banned 30. The best anti-aging food is high in retinol, an essential building block for connective tissue and vital for the skin's immune function. This anti-aging food contains copper and zinc, which support skin elasticity and healing. It's loaded with iron, and a single serving has more anti-wrinkle and anti-aging benefits than many expensive creams. If you haven't guessed, grass-fed liver is the #1 anti-aging superfood! Grass-fed liver contains every cofactor and nutrient necessary for healthy, youthful skin. Some people don't enjoy eating liver, and if you have preexisting liver damage, you may feel tired after eating it. If this happens, try taking one beef liver capsule before bed. Soaking liver in lemon juice can improve its taste. Many good recipes also make it more palatable. Liver pâté, grass-fed liver pills, and blending liver with ground beef can also help mask the flavor. If you consume collagen, you need many cofactors to penetrate the skin. Liver provides all of them!Ultraprocessed foods will make you look older! Low-fat diets can also have an aging effect on the skin. Low-fat protein and poor quality protein will help you lose weight, but won't help you look younger. Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting. He is the author of the best-selling book The Healthy Keto Plan, and is the Director of Dr. Berg Nutritionals. He no longer practices, but focuses on health education through social media.
Today, we discuss a new report that looks at the dangers posed by the chemical abortion pill; the most widely used abortion method in our country today. Has the time come for FDA oversight or government regulations? Then, Spain and Portugal's blackouts recently were the biggest in Europe’s history, with almost 60 million people losing power. These came two weeks after Spain celebrated generating 100 percent of its electricity from renewables. Could this happen in the US? Is this a symptom of the coming renewable energy failure?

Some call it your sixth sense. You refer to it when you have a “gut feeling.” With a vast fiber network running throughout your body, the vagus nerve knows about and helps regulate every critical function in it, from heart rate to digestion to your immune system. Now bioelectric medicine is tapping into that bodily omniscience by using tiny electrical pulses on the vagus nerve to help treat diseases as diverse as epilepsy, diabetes, stroke, Parkinson's, and even depression. In the coming months, the FDA is set to make a decision about a vagus nerve stimulation device, which, if approved, could provide first-of-its-kind treatment for an autoimmune disease that affects millions of Americans. We consider the groundbreaking potential of vagus nerve stimulation and ask whether electricity could one day replace medications.

IVF Clinic Bombing and Pro-Mortalism Ideology (00:02:09 - 00:09:27)Guy Edward Bartkus bombed a Palm Springs IVF clinic, killing himself and injuring five, motivated by pro-mortalism (life causes suffering, death is liberation). His manifesto, hosted on promortalism.com, rails against pro-lifers and life itself, reflecting a nihilistic, anti-human philosophy rooted in online subcultures.Cultural Nihilism and Social Media's Role (00:13:03 - 00:24:28)The bomber's pro-mortalism reflects a broader cultural nihilism, influenced by ideas like Gaia theory (humans as a virus) and amplified by social media platforms. Reddit, TikTok, and Tumblr are criticized as hubs for pseudo-intellectualism, fostering anti-life ideologies among isolated individuals.Bible Engagement as a Positive Trend (00:24:28 - 00:31:02)A LifeWay survey shows 48% of Americans view the Bible as true (up from 36% in 2016), with rising Bible sales and reading. This suggests a growing rejection of secular humanism and a return to spiritual values amid cultural nihilism.Covid as a Scam (Music Man Analogy) (00:41:36 - 00:50:18)A Brownstone Institute article compares the Covid response to The Music Man, where fear (inflated death counts, PCR test misuse) enriched “snake oil salesmen” like Fauci. This mirrors historical fearmongering (9/11, Waco) to erode rights, with elites profiting from compliance.Trump's Tariffs Impact on Small Businesses (01:11:21 - 01:16:20)An NFIB survey shows Trump's unpredictable tariffs are reducing small business optimism (down to 95.8, below the 51-year average), creating market uncertainty akin to Covid-era disruption. Small businesses face tight margins, reduced hiring, and stalled investments, with tech sector impacts highlighted by YouTubers Louis Rossman and Gamers Nexus.DEA Corruption in Drug War (01:27:30 - 01:35:58)An AP article reveals Diego Marin, a Cali cartel figure, evaded capture with DEA complicity, bribing agents while building a $100M money-laundering empire. Compared to Whitey Bulger and Iran-Contra, it's framed as a problem-reaction-solution tactic to expand the police state.Mexican Navy Ship Crash (01:37:07 - 01:39:26)An NBC News report describes a Mexican Navy sailing ship crashing into the Brooklyn Bridge, killing two and injuring 22 due to a mechanical failure. The surreal event stunned New Yorkers, highlighting the unexpected nature of Mexico's sailing navy.CDC Covid Vaccine Recommendations (01:52:26 - 01:56:33)A Wall Street Journal article reports the Trump administration plans to drop routine Covid vaccine recommendations for pregnant women, teenagers, and children, led by HHS Secretary RFK Jr. The host criticizes the CDC's blanket recommendation (everyone 6 months and older) due to no long-term safety data, profit-driven motives, and harmful side effects, arguing the vaccine should be removed entirely.HHS Covid Vaccine Recommendations and Authority (02:05:33 - 02:13:16)Dr. Ruby critiques HHS's plan to stop recommending Covid vaccines for children and pregnant women as a red herring, given its authority over FDA, NIH, CMS, and CDC to demand immediate removal. She warns of deceptive terms like “considering” and questions state chemtrail bans, citing federal exemptions (Title 50, Prep Act) and global air circulation, suspecting controlled opposition.Novavax Approval Critique and Bird Flu (02:21:20 - 02:30:03)The FDA fully approved Novavax's Covid shot, marketed as non-mRNA but using synthetic spike proteins from moth cells, posing risks like myocarditis with no long-term studies. Dr. Ruby warns of off-label use and compares it to Pfizer/Moderna's rollout. She critiques bird flu as a fabricated threat, with chicken culling inflating egg prices and testing economic control, not addressing real disease.Vaccine Shedding and Industry Protections (02:16:43 - 02:51:36)Pfizer's investigator brochure admits Covid vaccine shedding via inhalation and skin contact, raising concerns about unknown contents affecting unvaccinated individuals. Dr. Ruby highlights the vaccine industry's Prep Act immunity, with government payouts in vaccine court, and Pfizer's 50% non-disclosure agreement, allowing undisclosed ingredients, akin to coercive contracts demanding country assets.Follow the show on Kick and watch live every weekday 9:00am EST – 12:00pm EST https://kick.com/davidknightshow Money should have intrinsic value AND transactional privacy: Go to https://davidknight.gold/ for great deals on physical gold/silver For 10% off Gerald Celente's prescient Trends Journal, go to https://trendsjournal.com/ and enter the code KNIGHT Find out more about the show and where you can watch it at TheDavidKnightShow.comIf you would like to support the show and our family please consider subscribing monthly here: SubscribeStar https://www.subscribestar.com/the-david-knight-showOr you can send a donation throughMail: David Knight POB 994 Kodak, TN 37764Zelle: @DavidKnightShow@protonmail.comCash App at: $davidknightshowBTC to: bc1qkuec29hkuye4xse9unh7nptvu3y9qmv24vanh7Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-david-knight-show--2653468/support.

The FDA is finally banning a few food dyes... but why are we still swallowing chemicals that Europe kicked to the curb over a decade ago? Your protein bar, your salad dressing, even your kid's cereal — they're all hiding ingredients that mess with your brain, hormones, and gut... and you probably have no idea. And here's the kicker: There are over 14,000 food additives approved for use in the U.S. — many of which have never been tested for long-term safety. So yeah, pulling Red 3 is a start… but it barely scratches the surface. As consumers, we've been left to play detective — trying to decode labels, memorize chemical aliases, and guess whether what we're eating is actually safe. So in today's episode, we're breaking it all down. What the FDA's announcement really means, why it's taken so long, and what you can do right now to stop being a food system guinea pig and start taking back control of your plate.

I'm your host, Chef Mareya — chef, nutritionist, mom, food activist, and the creator of Superfood Sprinkle and EatCleaner. And today, we're peeling back the label on something that should be good news… but needs a deeper look. The FDA just announced that artificial colors — like Red 3, Yellow 5, and Blue 1 — are being phased out within the next two years. Yes, they're finally listening to the science, the petitions, and the parents who've been shouting this from the rooftops for decades. And while that's a step in the right direction, here's the truth: it's not enough. Cleaning up our food supply isn't just about removing bright red cereal dye. It's about looking at everything that's slipping into our food system — and what it's doing to our bodies. So in this episode, we're unpacking the Top 10 Food Issues You Should Actually Be Paying Attention To — with real talk, real solutions, and zero guilt. Let's dig in.

He also shares why waiting until the last minute on cybersecurity could cost startups millions—or even kill a project entirely.Whether you're a quality professional trying to build compliant systems or an innovator racing toward FDA submission, this episode lays out exactly what you need to know to stay ahead of cyber threats and within regulatory guardrails.Key Timestamps:00:01 – Intro to guest Christian Espinosa and Blue Goat Cyber06:28 – Why medical device cybersecurity is different from traditional IT security11:49 – Real-world hacking example: acne laser device turned skin-burner13:57 – FDA expectations post-September 2023: what changed17:12 – Secure boot: a microcontroller mistake that derailed a launch20:35 – Common cybersecurity vendor mistake MedTech companies make23:40 – SBOM: Software Bill of Materials and why it's legally critical27:58 – Cyberattacks in hospitals: assuming a hostile network35:44 – AI in medical devices: data bias and cybersecurity challenges41:10 – Developers ≠ cybersecurity experts: the training gap nobody talks about45:20 – What RA/QA professionals need to know now49:30 – Why cybersecurity must be iterative, not a final-phase add-on55:20 – Espinosa's final advice for MedTech professionals57:52 – The story behind “Blue Goat Cyber”Standout Quotes:“Cybersecurity for medical devices isn't about data breaches—it's about patient harm. You could paralyze someone or misdiagnose sepsis. This isn't theoretical.”— Christian Espinosa, on the real risks of insecure devices“Most developers don't understand cybersecurity. We assume they do—but that's like expecting an architect to be a locksmith.”— Christian Espinosa, on why so many devices fail security assessmentsTop Takeaways:Cybersecurity isn't just about data—it's about patient safety. From burning skin to missed sepsis diagnoses, vulnerabilities in devices have real-world harm potential.FDA now requires more than just a basic security plan. Post-September 2023 rules mandate testing (SAST, DAST, fuzzing), SBOMs, and risk assessments tied to patient harm.Start cybersecurity planning during the requirements phase. Hardware like microcontrollers must support secure boot and other protections—retrofits can cripple product plans.Iterate cybersecurity like any core development activity. One-time testing near submission is too late; build security into your pipeline just like QA or usability.Traditional cybersecurity vendors aren't enough. Many fail to meet FDA's nuanced expectations for medical devices, causing costly submission rejections.References & Resources:Christian Espinosa on LinkedInBlue Goat CyberEtienne Nichols on LinkedInMedTech 101 – Understanding SBOM (Software Bill of...
Did you know that some weight loss medications can help people lose up to 20% of their body weight, comparable to bariatric surgery outcomes? In this episode, I dive into the latest research comparing two major weight loss medications, Wegovy (semaglutide) and Zepbound (tirzepatide), based on findings from the 72-week SURMOUNT-5 trial. I explain how Zepbound led to greater weight loss (about 20.2% vs. 13.7% with Wegovy), possibly due to its dual action on GIP and GLP-1 receptors. Both drugs were generally well tolerated, with similar side effects like nausea and constipation, though Wegovy had slightly more people stop due to GI issues. I also emphasize that while Zepbound may appear more effective, individual needs, such as cardiovascular health or sleep apnea, should guide treatment decisions. Lastly, I remind you that sustainable weight loss requires patience, realistic expectations, and a holistic approach that includes lifestyle changes, not just medication. Tune in to this episode to learn which weight loss medication might be right for you and why your journey to health is more than just the number on the scale. Episode Highlights: Comparison of Wegovy (semaglutide) and Zepbound (tirzepatide) Average weight loss outcomes and waist circumference changes between both medications Mechanism of action: GLP-1 vs. dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor targeting Side effect profiles and tolerability of both medications FDA approval differences, including cardiovascular risk reduction and sleep apnea treatment Importance of personalized treatment plans and setting realistic weight loss expectations Ongoing research into oral formulations and long-term safety studies Connect with Dr. Alicia Shelly: Website | drshellymd.com Facebook | www.facebook.com/drshellymd Instagram | @drshellymd Linked In | www.linkedin.com/in/drshellymd Twitter | @drshellymd About Dr. Alicia Shelly Dr. Alicia Shelly was raised in Atlanta, GA.

I am honored to connect with Dr. Aly Cohen today. She is a board-certified rheumatologist, an integrative medicine physician, and one of the country's leading medical and legal experts in environmental health. We began our conversation today exploring the role of federal agencies, including the EPA and FDA, in regulating environmental toxins and their impact on public safety. Dr. Cohen discusses her rheumatology training and explains how our environments affect our immune systems, clarifying why tap water is problematic, how water treatment plants fail to filter out most contaminants, and how pregnancy, childhood, teen years, perimenopause, and menopause are critical stages for toxin exposure. She reveals how many of the laws for processed foods are outdated and ineffective, and how the concept of GRAS (generally regarded as safe) has no real value, and also dives into changes in nutritional value and soil quality, how medications impact our gut microbiome and disease susceptibility, why iodine is essential for detoxifying the lymphatic and glymphatic systems, and how noise pollution affects our health. This conversation with Dr. Aly Cohen is invaluable, and her book, resources, and works are particularly significant for this community. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: How the gaps in federal protections outweigh the measures currently in place The cumulative effects of toxin exposure on the immune system, particularly for women in perimenopause and menopause Why tap water is unsafe for drinking Why reverse osmosis filtration is the best option Why young people should learn about toxin exposure before becoming pregnant How estrogen loss during menopause impacts the immune system The poor nutritional value of processed foods and the lack of effective regulation surrounding them How medications affect the gut microbiome and immune function The benefits of iodine for detoxification and thyroid health Why noise pollution is problematic for our mental health Connect with Cynthia Thurlow Follow on Twitter, Instagram & LinkedIn Check out Cynthia's website Submit your questions to support@cynthiathurlow.com Connect with Dr. Aly Cohen On her website TikTok, Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn Dr. Cohen's new book, Detoxify, is available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and from most local booksellers.
