Send us a textMom of two (including one who experienced a vaccine injury), toxicologist, and creator of the *must read*, comprehensive Vaccine Guide drops some jaw-dropping bombshells that will make you think twice about the safety, efficacy, ethics, and necessity of these routine shots.We talk about the tragic human sacrifices who were callously exploited for the sake of growing viruses in aborted fetal cells. The ingredients in vaccines will make your stomach churn— and no, we're not just talking about the well-known and widely discussed neurotoxic aluminum.We also discuss the superiority of natural immunity verses artificial immunity via vaccination and the longterm benefit of allowing our bodies to encounter sickness in the wild without synthetic interference. Specifically, we learn about which cancers you are at a lesser risk of having as a result of acquiring natural immunity from certain "vaccine preventable" illnesses.You'll hear us talk about the role breastmilk antibodies play from the start of life as well as the importance of honoring the divine order of growth from a spiritual standpoint.Despite the benefits we acknowledge that homeopathy provides, we talk about why we are against homeoprophylaxis as a “safer” alternative to vaccines. We also learn why vitamin D supplementation is not only pointless but also to some degree harmful.This conversation is sure to make your head spin in the best way!Follow Ashley on instagram @insta_ashleyeverlyAshley's websiteAccess Ashley's free vaccine guideSupport the showJOIN OUR NEW, PRIVATE COMMUNITY!

Women who believe their implants are making them sick report a wide range of symptoms including extreme fatigue, muscle and joint pain, headache, brain fog, hair loss, rashes, dry mouth and eyes, depression, anxiety, and insomnia. These conditions appear within a few months to several years following surgery and seem to follow a secondary surgery like revision or exchange. However, the exact cause is difficult to pin down because other conditions, like Lyme disease and toxic mold exposure, can cause similar symptoms. Using PCR testing (instead of traditional CLIA-based lab testing), Dr. Rob discovered that over 60% of the breast implants he removed all had one thing in common. Dr. Robert Whitfield describes his methodology for identifying this complicated, misunderstood condition and shares his treatment strategies utilizing nutrition and genetic testing to put his patients on the path to healing.

For quite some time now, ever since entering the world of red light therapy — but particularly when getting into the realm of methylene blue — I've wondered what nitric oxide's true impact on our body and wellness is. For the vast majority of my life, I was under the belief that all nitric oxide = good. That was ingrained at an early age with the countless pre-workout supplements I was taking during my heavy lifting days during high school through college. But it didn't stop there. The message of nitric oxide = good and that "more is better" has been perpetuated in the wellness, and even longevity, industries by countless experts and influencers.But how is that possible if one of methylene blue's main actions is nitric oxide inhibition? How is that possible if nitric oxide is a free radical and an environmental pollutant and, thus, is effectively an "electron stealer"?For whatever reason, I have never been able to get a straight answer from anyone on this topic. But serendipitously, I was recently reading a book that provided the most clearcut and sensible explanation that would allow for nitric oxide to be both "good" and "bad". The book is Methylene Blue: Magic Bullet: The Ultimate Mitochondrial Support, by Dr. John Lieurance. As I learned from the book, it turns out that nitric oxide is quite similar to how inflammation can be both a positive and a negative for our physiology; but with some additional nuances through in there. Today's episode is about nitric oxide and the roles it plays in our wellness and what the best strategies are for best harnessing the "good" nitric oxide while downregulating the "bad" nitric oxide.

Most of us understand that the immune system ramps up in defense of the body in response to a stressor. But what happens when the system doesn't return to homeostasis? How can we quiet things back down and return balance when the immune system has become overactive, as with auto-immune disorders? On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared invites Jim LaValle back on to discuss how plant sterols and sterolins can support the immune system to return to a balanced state. They also discuss what may be at the root of auto-immune diseases as well as mast cell, and histamine issues. You'll learn how you can rebalance your immune system as well as how you can support it to function at its best.Products:ModuCarePrecision Probiotic Vital SporesProtocol:#395: How Aged Garlic Extract Benefits Every System In Your Body with Dr. Jim LaValle#395: How Aged Garlic Extract Benefits Every System In Your Body with Dr. Jim LaValleVisit the podcast website here: VitalityRadio.comYou can follow @vitalityradio and @vitalitynutritionbountiful on Instagram, or Vitality Radio and Vitality Nutrition on Facebook.
