Story at-a-glance Curcumin, the active compound in turmeric, targets inflammation at its source by interacting with biological systems that regulate inflammation, metabolism and cellular stress Research shows curcumin doses above 1,500 milligrams daily significantly reduce body mass index and fat mass while improving gut health and reducing systemic inflammation Curcumin helps rewire gut-brain communication by increasing beneficial gut bacteria that produce short-chain fatty acids, supporting colon health and regulating appetite Advanced delivery methods like nanocarriers or a liposomal delivery system allow curcumin to cross the blood-brain barrier, fighting neurodegenerative conditions by reducing brain inflammation and supporting neuron repair Curcumin prevents protein clumping in brain cells, a hallmark of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, while offering a safe, affordable alternative to conventional treatments with numerous side effects

Parkinson's is a disease that afflicts an estimated 90,000 Americans every year. Current treatment focuses on managing its many symptoms as there is no cure. But a new stem cell-based therapy that creates nerve cells is showing early promise. What's behind this incredible discovery and just how hopeful should patients be? Two of the doctors leading this development, Dr. Lorenz Studer and Dr. Viviane Tabar of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, join The Excerpt to share the journey behind this exciting new development.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode, Dr. Jannine Krause sits down with Christian Drapeau, neurophysiology scientist and stem cell pioneer, to explore the fascinating world of plant-based stem cell activation and regenerative medicine. Christian shares his groundbreaking research on how natural plant extracts, including Klamath Lake blue-green algae and sea buckthorn, can stimulate the body's own stem cell production — enhancing the repair of organs, tissues, bones, and even the brain. From athletes seeking faster muscle recovery to those navigating cognitive decline or chronic illness, this episode offers cutting-edge insights into the body's innate healing potential. They dive into how microcirculation, gut health, and even peptide therapy work synergistically with stem cell activation to transform long-term health outcomes. Christian also introduces StemRegen, a supplement developed to safely and effectively increase circulating stem cells using plant-based protocols.

This episode of Integrative Cancer Solutions with Dr. Karlfeldt. is joined by Steve Becker as he shares his personal cancer journey, which began with awareness of his family history after his father died from colon cancer. Steve discovered a fermented soybean beverage called Halen 951 through a book about someone who successfully treated testicular cancer. After visiting the company in Seattle, Steve became a distributor and began sharing the product with others, including his friend Sherry who was battling stage four breast cancer and experienced remission after using the product. Steve later faced his own cancer battle when he was diagnosed with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) that progressed to a rare and aggressive form of lymphoma. He opted for a less aggressive chemotherapy protocol (Rituximab and Bendamustine) while simultaneously using Halen 951, which he credits with helping him tolerate the treatment better than other patients. Steve explains that the nitrogenated fermented soy product works by penetrating cancer cell walls and destroying them, while also reducing side effects from traditional treatments. Following his treatment, Steve maintains his health through regular blood work, toxicology tests, and a holistic approach including diet, exercise, and various therapies like mistletoe, IV infusions, and sauna sessions. Despite later being diagnosed with Parkinson's disease, Steve remains committed to finding and sharing effective health solutions, expressing gratitude for the opportunity to help others battling cancer and other health challenges through his story and experiences.Steve Becker discovered Halen 951, a fermented soybean beverage, after reading about someone who successfully treated testicular cancer with it, which led him to become a distributor of the product.Steve's friend Sherry achieved remission from stage four breast cancer after using Halen 951, experiencing an initial increase in her cancer marker before it decreased as the product helped transport cancer cells out of her body.The nitrogenated properties of Halen 951 reportedly penetrate cancer cell walls and destroy them while also helping reduce side effects from traditional chemotherapy and radiation treatments.When facing his own diagnosis of aggressive lymphoma, Steve combined a less damaging chemotherapy protocol with Halen 951, which he credits with helping him tolerate treatment better than other patients.Steve maintains his health through a comprehensive approach including regular blood work, toxicology tests, diet, exercise, and alternative therapies like mistletoe, IV infusions, and sauna sessions despite later developing Parkinson's disease.----Grab my book A Better Way to Treat Cancer: A Comprehensive Guide to Understanding, Preventing and Most Effectively Treating Our Biggest Health Threat - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CM1KKD9X?ref_=pe_3052080_397514860 Unleashing 10X Power: A Revolutionary Approach to Conquering Cancerhttps://store.thekarlfeldtcenter.com/products/unleashing-10x-power-Price: $24.99-100% Off Discount Code: CANCERPODCAST1Healing Within: Unraveling the Emotional Roots of Cancerhttps://store.thekarlfeldtcenter.com/products/healing-within-Price: $24.99-100% Off Discount Code: CANCERPODCAST2----Integrative Cancer Solutions was created to instill hope and empowerment.

Story at-a-glance Vitamin D may play a protective role in Parkinson's disease, with clinical trials showing improvements in balance and mobility for patients taking supplements of 1,000 to 10,000 IU daily The "sunshine vitamin" has neuroprotective effects in the brain, particularly in a key area affected by Parkinson's that helps produce dopamine Vitamin D deficiency is common in Parkinson's patients and contributes to disease progression, as this nutrient helps regulate inflammation and protects brain cells from damage Sunlight is the optimal source of vitamin D; ideally get daily exposure until just before your skin turns slightly pink — though those with darker skin need longer exposure times If sun exposure is limited, vitamin D supplements are useful to help maintain optimal levels (60 to 80 ng/mL); take supplements with healthy fats and monitor your levels with regular blood tests

In this episode of The Psychedelic Podcast, Paul F. Austin welcomes Bryan Hubbard, a prominent advocate for psychedelic-assisted therapies, particularly ibogaine in the treatment of opioid addiction and mental health disorders.  Find full show notes and links here: https://thethirdwave.co/podcast/episode-305/?ref=278 Update (May 2025): Days before this episode's release, the Texas House approved a Senate-backed bill to fund ibogaine research through a public-private partnership aimed at securing FDA approval. This vote marks a major milestone in the movement Bryan describes throughout this conversation. Bryan shares his journey from leading Kentucky's Opioid Abatement Advisory Commission to spearheading breakthrough ibogaine research initiatives in Texas. He articulates ibogaine's unique neurological properties, discussing how it can reset brain neurochemistry in 36 hours and potentially treat conditions from traumatic brain injury to Parkinson's disease. The conversation explores the spiritual dimensions of ibogaine experiences, the political landscape surrounding psychedelic medicine, and Bryan's ongoing efforts to medicalize ibogaine through FDA drug development trials, highlighting Texas as the next frontier for this life-saving research. W. Bryan Hubbard is the Executive Director of the American Ibogaine Initiative. He is the first and former Chairman and Executive Director of the Kentucky Opioid Abatement Advisory Commission. He concurrently served as Special Counsel to the Kentucky Attorney General's Office of Medicaid Fraud and Abuse Control and was its prior Executive Director. He served on the Kentucky Judicial Commission on Mental Health, the Kentucky Child Support Guidelines Commission, Mine Safety Review Board, and the Kentucky Office of Drug Control Policy's Recovery Ready Communities Advisory Council. He previously served as Commissioner of the Kentucky Department of Income Support wherein he led the Commonwealth's Social Security Disability and Child Support Enforcement systems. He practiced workers' compensation law representing Walmart, Tyson Foods, and Tennessee Valley Authority for sixteen years. During his practice years, he observed the predacious onset of Kentucky's Opioid Epidemic amid generational joblessness, poverty, disability, and substance use. He was raised in Virginia's coalfields and is the proud grandson of two grade-school educated coal miners on whose shoulders he stands. Highlights: Why ibogaine interrupts addiction instantly The Stanford study that changed everything Resetting brain neurochemistry in 36 hours From Parkinson's to PTSD: Ibogaine's broad applications The spiritual awakening dimension of treatment How pharmaceutical interests block breakthrough medicine Kentucky's lost opportunity: $42 million for research Texas as the new frontier for ibogaine medicalization Matrix pharmacology: Ibogaine's intelligent mechanism The political war over life-saving psychedelic medicine Episode Links Website American Ibogaine Initiative Instagram: @w_bryan_hubbard X (Formerly Twitter): @w_bryan_hubbard Linkedin Episode Sponsors: Golden Rule Mushrooms - Get a lifetime discount of 10% with code THIRDWAVE at checkout

“No necesitas un cerebro para moverte, no necesitas un cerebro para captar el medio ambiente, no necesitas un cerebro para ver o para oír. ¿Para qué tenemos un cerebro entonces? Yo creo que tenemos un cerebro para conectar con los otros”. Con este planteamiento humanista, el neurólogo Álvaro Pascual-Leone, protagonista de este nuevo episodio de Aprendemos juntos, da un salto exponencial en el conocimiento del cerebro y defiende la socialización, relaciones personales sanas y un propósito vital como aspectos claves para mantener la salud cerebral. Catedrático de Neurología y decano asociado de Ciencia Clínica y Traslacional de la Facultad de Medicina de la Universidad de Harvard, el doctor Pascual-Leone dirige la División de Neurología del Comportamiento y el Centro Berenson-Allen de Estimulación Cerebral No Invasiva en el Hospital Beth Israel Deaconess en Boston. Se ha especializado en el desarrollo y aplicación de la estimulación magnética transcraneal (EMT), una técnica no invasiva que permite activar o inhibir regiones del cerebro mediantes pulsos magnéticos, con extraordinarios resultados en pacientes con ictus, Parkinson o depresión resistente. Su trabajo e investigación sobre estimulación cerebral no invasiva, recogidos en las principales revistas científicas y en el libro ‘El cerebro que cura', se ha visto amplificado a través de programas de formación en Harvard. El doctor Pascual-Leone, doctor Honoris Causa por la Universidad de Madrid, es también miembro de la Real Academia Nacional de Farmacia en España y ha sido reconocido con galardones como el Premio Ramón y Cajal en Neurociencia (España), el premio Norman Geschwind en Neurología del Comportamiento de la Academia Americana de Neurología, el premio Jean–Louis Signoret de la Fundación Ipsen (Francia) y el premio de Investigación de Friedrich Wilhelm Bessel de la Fundación Humboldt (Alemania).

Send us a textIs chronic neuroinflammation the silent driver behind modern brain diseases like Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, Long COVID, and mood disorders? In this eye-opening episode, Dr. Brandon Crawford speaks with Cuong Do, the CEO of BioVie Pharmaceuticals, who came out of retirement to tackle the growing challenge of neurodegenerative diseases. They delve into the intricate science of TNF-alpha, explore the concept of insulin resistance within the brain, and discuss the potential of next-generation neurodrugs, such as BioVie's Bezisterem, to not only alleviate symptoms but potentially alter the trajectory of aging itself. Join them as they unpack the significance of ongoing clinical trials, the implications of biological clocks and mitochondrial health, and the often-overlooked connections between inflammation and crucial aspects of health, including cognition, hormones, longevity, and even autism.Key TakeawaysMany chronic conditions, including neurodevelopmental disorders and autoimmune diseases, may stem from fundamental light signaling failures at the cellular level.In Alzheimer's disease, TNF-alpha drives the production of amyloid precursor protein (APP) and the phosphorylation of tau, contributing to amyloid plaques and tau tangles, though these may be downstream effects of inflammation.Emerging research links the brain fog, fatigue, and malaise associated with Long COVID to inflammatory mechanisms that BioVie's drug candidate, Bezisterem, aims to modulate.Pre-clinical studies of Bezisterem in Parkinson's models showed it to be as effective as Levodopa in restoring muscle control and demonstrated a synergistic effect when used in combination.Bezisterem is a small molecule that readily crosses the blood-brain barrier and has shown a long half-life, potentially offering benefits for Parkinson's patients experiencing "off" states in the morning.BioVie is actively monitoring biomarkers of neurodegeneration, such as GFAP and neurofilament light (NFL), in their clinical trials and has observed a disruption in the typical correlation between disease progression and these markers in the treatment arm.ResourcesBioVie Pharmaceuticals: biovpharma.comClinical Trials Info: https://www.bioviepharma.com/clinical-trialsProducts 528 Innovations Lasers NeuroSolution Full Spectrum CBD NeuroSolution Broad Spectrum CBD NeuroSolution StimPod Learn MoreFor more information, resources, and podcast episodes, visit https://tinyurl.com/3ppwdfpm

Today on Too Opinionated, we talk with actor/stuntman Alex Grech! After high school, Alex took a brief hiatus from acting and spent several months working as a paralegal, laborer, and bartender in Australia, raising money to fulfill his dream of embarking on a global trip. His dream came true, and, in 2019, he set out backpacking around the globe for eleven months, visiting places such as India, Switzerland, Prague, and Budapest. In 2020, he officially made the move to New York City to study at NYU's TISCH School of Arts, learning at the school's prestigious Experimental Theatre Wing. It wasn't until 2024, however, that Alex landed his breakout role as Tommaso in Juliet & Romeo, relocating to Verona, Italy for six months, where he trained with the stunt team and the horse stunt teams to become proficient in performing his own stunts in the film. After several months of training in stunt work, Alex was offered the opportunity to become the stunt double for Romeo as well. Alex is also passionate about campaigning for more research in the medical field, to help discover preventative measures that treat cancers and neurological conditions such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's – diseases that have directly impacted his life and the life of his loved ones. He also devotes his time to raising awareness for mental health initiatives.   Want to watch: YouTube Meisterkhan Pod (Please Watch)

Nach wüstem Onlinehass wegen ihrer Solo-Performances ohne Band hat sich die britische Musikerin Billy Nomates nun Mates gesucht und spielt auf ihrem dritten Album «Metalhorse» mit einer ganzen Band. «Metalhorse» ist das metaphorische Pferd auf dem rostigen Karussell des Lebens, das nicht mehr so rund läuft. Billy Nomates' letzte Jahre waren nicht einfach: Ihr Vater erkrankte an Parkinson und insbesondere im letzten Stadium der Krankheit pflegte die Musikerin ihn intensiv. Währenddessen erhielt sie selbst eine erschütternde Diagnose: Multiple Sklerose. Aus diesen Erfahrungen heraus begann sie zu schreiben. Doch gerade als sie ins Studio gehen wollte, um die Aufnahmen zu beginnen, starb ihr Vater. «Metalhorse» hat sie nun ihm gewidmet - Peter Maries.

Story at-a-glance Syngenta agreed to settle thousands of lawsuits filed by farmers diagnosed with Parkinson's disease after paraquat exposure, signaling growing public outrage over decades of corporate cover-ups Paraquat increases the risk of Parkinson's disease by about 2.5 times and damages mitochondria, leading to progressive movement disorders and irreversible brain degeneration according to NIH research The EPA is delaying decisive action on paraquat regulation despite mounting evidence of severe health risks, allowing paraquat to remain on the market for at least four more years Despite following safety guidelines, many farmers still developed Parkinson's, highlighting how protective equipment and labeling failed to shield them from paraquat's dangers Protect yourself from paraquat and other toxic chemicals by checking local pesticide use, installing air and water filters, eating antioxidant-rich foods, supporting organic farming, and thoroughly cleaning anything exposed to agricultural chemicals

 This week, I'm recording… absolutely nothing! Best Life Laurie is officially OOO and fully planted on a tropical beach, indulging in some well-deserved “ass-sitting” (yep, that's a technical term). So today, I'm sharing a listener favorite episode that's more relevant than ever.In this replay, we explore what it really means to create a life you don't need to escape from—a life that doesn't rely on vacations to feel good. I talk about Parkinson's Law (a.k.a. why we always think we can do all the things before wheels up), how we fill our calendars with chaos, and why I've made it a non-negotiable to take two real vacations a year—one for adventure, and one for full-body rest.You'll learn why fulfillment can't be deferred until “someday,” how to start building your Best Life right now (without burning it all down), and why that sticker in a ski-town pizza joint just might be your new life motto.What We Cover:What Best Life Me looks like (spoiler: she's on the beach with a drink)Why two vacations a year is part of my success metricParkinson's Law and the midlife myth of “I can get it all done”How to stop living for the next break and start designing daily joyThe power of boundaries, and why vacation shouldn't include work emailsLiving your life now—not waiting until retirement, the next milestone, or a bigger 401(k)If You've Ever Thought…“I'll be happy when…”“There's just not enough time for rest”“I can't take a real break without the world falling apart”…this episode is your warm, sandy permission slip to think again.

In this week's edition of the AmiSights Podcast, we talk to Eric Kaplan, CEO of AXYS Golf. He shares his entrepreneurial journey, detailing how his passion for golf and personal experiences with his father's Parkinson's disease led him to develop a unique coaching methodology.“The more people that you help, the more people that you're able to inspire to teach or to play or, somebody with Parkinson's get back onto the golf course after thinking they would never play again. I have found that my journey has really been built upon helping one person at a time.”Growing up with a father who had Parkinson's disease deeply influenced Kaplan's desire to help others, instilling in him a strong sense of empathy and purpose from an early age. Throughout his entrepreneurial journey, the unwavering support he received at every stage played a crucial role in his success, reinforcing the importance of community and connection. A firm believer in the power of manifestation, Kaplan also credits much of his growth to consistently visualizing where he wants to be in life and aligning his actions with that vision.Connect with Eric: https://www.linkedin.com/in/eric-kaplan-947738111/Check out AXYS Golf: https://www.axysgolf.com/Recorded on 4/14/25

On this episode we are talking about mindset and resiliency with my guest Scott Hanley. Scott is a remarkable advocate for resilience, mindset, and functional health—an advocacy grounded in a powerful story of personal growth and change. Diagnosed with Parkinson's in 2017, Scott faced debilitating symptoms, including muscle rigidity, tremors, and severe sleep disturbances. Refusing to accept a progressive decline, he took an unconventional approach, combining high intensity physical and cognitive exercises to “train his brain” and reclaim control. Through CrossFit, Scott found a program that paired physical intensity with cognitive challenge, allowing him to regain 95% of his function—an outcome that continues to astonish his neurologists. His journey reflects a commitment to thrive, despite adversity, using resilience and innovation. Scott's experience as a former British Army officer further strengthens his message of mental toughness and discipline. Bringing this expertise into the corporate arena, he now works with business leaders to cultivate habits that support both physical and mental performance. Scott emphasizes mindset, functional fitness, and sustainable wellness as essential strategies to thrive in high-stress environments. He works directly with executives and teams, sharing insights from his own journey and teaching resilience-based techniques that empower them to lead with energy, focus, and a renewed commitment to health. Learning points: • How Scott reversed symptoms of his Parkinson's disease • What are his key pillars of mindset and resiliency • How Scott's story transcends so many areas of life Social Media: Website: https://www.thrivehappens.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thrive_happens

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.

Neil Diamond is one of the best-selling singer-songwriters of all time.  In August 1972 he performed a series of 10 sold-out shows at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles.  Recordings from this concert would be released as a live double-album entitled Hot August Night later that year in December.  Neil Diamond was born in Brooklyn, New York, the child of a Jewish family.  At the age of 16 he was inspired by seeing folk singer Pete Seeger perform at a camp for Jewish children in upstate New York, and received his first guitar shortly thereafter.  This would set the direction of Diamond's career, starting with both taking guitar lessons and writing songs.  After some time barely scraping by as a songwriter, Diamond began to find some success by the mid-60's, most prominently with several songs for The Monkees, including the big hit, "I'm A Believer."  Diamond moved to Los Angeles in 1969, where he recorded some of his bigger solo hits, including the iconic "Sweet Caroline."Many consider "Hot August Night" to be Neil Diamond's best work, capturing the artist at his prime and at the top of his game.  It went to number 5 on the Billboard 200 album chart, and was number 12 for the 1973 year-end chart.  It was number 1 in Australia for 29 weeks in 1973 and 1974, and remains one of the highest selling albums in that country. Neil Diamond retired from touring in 2018 toward the end of his "50 Year Anniversary World Tour" after being diagnosed with Parkinson's disease.  However, Diamond did not retire from music, and continued writing and developing new projects.Wayne brings us this soft rock singer-songwriter live album for this week's podcast. Kentucky WomanThis song is a bonus track on the CD, and many will recognize this song from the remake performed by Deep Purple.  It was written in 1967 and went to number 22 on the charts after its release.  It appeared on the compilation album, "Neil Diamond's Greatest Hits" released in 1968 on Bang records after Diamond left that label.Cherry CherryThe inspiration for this song was an early relationship with a significantly older woman.  This was Diamond's first hit, reaching number 6 on the Billboard Hot 100.  The most familiar studio version of this song was released in mid 1966 on Bang records, and was the final track on Diamond's debut studio album, "The Feel of Neil Diamond."Song Sung BlueThis song was originally released on Diamond's eighth studio album, "Moods."  It was his second number 1 song in the United States, and his last solo #1 song in America to date.  The musical inspiration for the song is Mozart's Piano Concerto #21, second movement.  The lyrics reflect on the power of music to heal when a sad mood is poured into a song. Cracklin' RosieOriginally released in 1970, this song topped the charts and sold over 1 million copies.  The studio version appeared on "Tap Root Manuscript," Diamond's sixth studio album, and was recorded with instrumentation provided by session musicians from the Wrecking Crew. While the lyrics suggest that Rosie is a prostitute, there are tales that it actually refers to a cheap sparkling wine from Canada called "Crackling Rosè."  ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Theme from the animated series "Josie and the Pussycats"The animated series "Josie and the Pussycats" and "Josie and the Pussycats in Outer Space" concluded its run this month. STAFF PICKS:Ventura Highway by AmericaRob leads off the staff picks with a song inspired by a drive that vocalist and writer Dewey Bunnell took in 1963 on the Pacific Coast.  While his father was changing a flat tire, he and his brother stood on the side of the road near a road sign for Ventura, watching shapes in the clouds, inspiring the lyrics "alligator lizards in the air."Superstition by Stevie WonderLynch brings us the lead single from Wonder's fifteenth studio album "Talking Book."  It's lyrics mention many popular superstitions and their negative consequences.  Stevie Wonder collaborated with Jeff Beck on the demo for this song, and Beck would include his version of "Superstition" on his "Beck, Bogert & Appice" album.Rockin' Pneumonia and the Boogie Woogie Flu by Johnny RiversBruce features the song originally recorded in 1957 by Huey "Piano" Smith.  The original version went to number 52 on the pop charts, but the version we all know went to number 6 on the Billboard Hot 100.  Rivers was a member of the Wrecking Crew, and several musicians from that session group played on this single. It Never Rains in Southern California by Albert HammondWayne's closes out the staff picks with a storytelling song about a performer off to make it big.  He fails in his efforts, but wants to hide the failure from those he left behind.  Members of the Wrecking Crew also provide instrumentation on this song that went to number 5 on the Billboard Hot 100. NOVELTY TRACK:Crazy Horses by The OsmondsThis surprisingly heavy performance from the Osmonds takes us out for this week.  Thanks for listening to “What the Riff?!?” NOTE: To adjust the loudness of the music or voices, you may adjust the balance on your device.

She opens with a nod to her previous episode about low-level laser therapy in neurodegenerative diseases and its life-changing potential for children. Transitioning into the current discussion, Dr. Hieshetter elaborates on how gut health significantly influences various symptoms like GI upset, brain fog, and mental health deterioration, emphasizing a holistic clinical approach. Amid her exploration of gut microbiome, Dr. Hieshetter sheds light on the critical role of nutritional choices and exposure to toxins such as MSG, aspartame, and glyphosate. Highlighting the connection between gut imbalances and systemic diseases, she shares a powerful story of a patient who traveled from Florida seeking relief from chronic gastrointestinal issues. Through advanced gut testing, Dr. Hieshetter outlines her integrative treatment strategies, underscoring the significance of vibrant gut health and its direct correlation with mental well-being, autoimmune disorders, and even neurological diseases like Parkinson's. Key Takeaways: Gut health is intricately linked to brain health, influencing symptoms like anxiety, depression, and cognitive decline. Functional testing, such as Vibrant America's Gut Zoomer, plays a vital role in diagnosing and treating gut imbalances. Avoiding harmful substances like excitotoxins and pesticides is crucial for maintaining gut and overall health. Comprehensive treatment plans, including probiotics, dietary changes, and low-level laser therapy, can significantly improve quality of life. Emotional and mental health often improve alongside physical well-being in cases of severe gut imbalances. Notable Quotes: "When there are things that I know the world needs, I know my patients need, they keep walking through my door without me asking." "Your gut microbiome is a major protector of that." "Pesticides like paraquat, they inhibit autophagy… It cleans out cancer cells that shouldn't be there." "Stop eating pesticides. Avoid them at all costs." "It's a really different topic to check out, but for the repeat listeners, you know, it's been a great journey for us all here."

Jeffrey Gibb Kennett AC (born 2 March 1948) is an Australian former politician who served as the 43rd Premier of Victoria between 1992 and 1999, Leader of the Victorian Liberal Party from 1982 to 1989 and from 1991 to 1999, and the Member for Burwood from 1976 to 1999. He is currently a media commentator. He was previously the president of the Hawthorn Football Club, from 2005 to 2011 and again from 2017 to 2022. He is the founding Chairman of beyondblue, a national mental health advocacy organisation. Early life The son of Kenneth Munro Gibb Kennett (1921–2007), and Wendy Anne Kennett (1925–2006; née Fanning), he was born in Melbourne on 2 March 1948. He attended Scotch College; and, although an unexceptional student academically, he did well in the school's Cadet Corps Unit. He also played football (on the wing) for the school.  His failure to rise above the middle band academically almost led him to quit school in Fourth Form (Year 10 – 1963), but he was persuaded to stay on. His Fifth and Sixth Forms were an improvement, but he was still described in school reports as "[a] confident and at times helpful boy. Sometimes irritates. Sometimes works hard" (1964), and "[a] keen, pleasant, though sometimes erratic boy" (1965). After leaving school, Kennett was persuaded by his father Ken to attend the Australian National University in Canberra, but lost interest and left after one year of an economics degree. He returned to Melbourne and found work in the advertising department of the retail giant Myer – kindling an interest for advertising that would one day earn him his living. Kennett's life in the regular workforce was cut short when, in 1968, he was conscripted into the Australian Army.[9] Kennett was selected for officer training and graduated third in his class from the Officer Training Unit, Scheyville (OTU), near Windsor, New South Wales, outside Sydney. He was posted to Malaysia and Singapore as Second Lieutenant, commander of 1st Platoon, A Company, 1st Battalion, Royal Australian Regiment (1RAR). This military career (and his earlier experience in the Scotch College Cadet Corps) has been noted by many biographers as an essential formative influence on the adult Kennett's character. His sense and regard for hierarchical loyalty, punctuality, and general intolerance of dissent or disobedience may be traced to this period. Kennett returned to civilian life in 1970, reentering a divided Australian society, split by the Vietnam War, of which Kennett was a firm supporter. Having returned to Myer, Kennett became impatient with his work, and so with Ian Fegan and Eran Nicols, he formed his own advertising company (KNF) in June 1971. Thereafter, in December 1972, Kennett married Felicity Kellar, an old friend whom he had first met on a Number 69 tram on the long trips to school. Their first son was born in 1974, followed by a daughter and two more sons. Political career Kennett was elected as a Liberal Member of the Victorian Legislative Assembly (MLA) for Burwood in 1976, having had an interest in local politics since the early 1970s.[14] His preselection for the seat reportedly irritated then Premier Dick Hamer, who disliked Kennett's campaigning style, and had endorsed the sitting member, Haddon Storey. However, by 1981, Kennett was promoted to Cabinet as Minister for Housing and Minister of Immigration and Ethnic Affairs. He was one of several younger MPs whom Hamer promoted to Cabinet in a bid to renew his government. Kennett retained his post when Hamer was replaced as Liberal leader and Premier by Lindsay Thompson in June of that year. Following the defeat of the longstanding Liberal government in 1982, Kennett was the leading candidate to replace Thompson despite being the youngest member of the outgoing government. On 26 October, he was elected leader of the Liberal Party and hence Leader of the Opposition. He took an aggressive posture against the Cain government, and was often criticised for his "bull-in-a-china-shop" style and his anti-government rhetoric. Under his leadership, the Liberals were heavily defeated by Labor in 1985. Afterwards he faced a challenge to his leadership of the party from Ian Smith. Kennett survived easily, but increasingly, he was seen as an erratic and unapproachable leader. He faced two more challenges to his leadership in 1986 and 1987. In 1987, in one notable incident Kennett referred to the Federal Liberal leader John Howard as a 'cunt' in a mobile telephone conversation with Howard rival Andrew Peacock. The car-phone conversation damaged both Howard and Kennett politically, but aided Peacock in his push to return as Federal Liberal leader (1989). Toward the end of its second term the Cain government had lost support and the Liberals were expected to win the 1988 election. The Liberal vote indeed rebounded strongly – they won a majority of the two-party vote – however much of this margin was wasted on landslide majorities in their heartland. As a result, the Liberals took only one seat from Labor in the capital, and were left four seats short of a majority. Failing to become premier, Kennett was again criticised within his own party, and in 1989 he was deposed in favour of a little-known rural MLA, Alan Brown. Kennett's performance during his first stint as Liberal leader is a matter of debate. Economou sees his 1985 and 1988 election campaigns as weak, while Parkinson believes he was a significant asset in pushing the Labor government of John Cain in several key seats. First term as premier Kennett publicly pledged never to attempt a return to the Liberal leadership. However, when Brown proved unable to challenge the government effectively, he allowed his supporters to call a spill in 1991. Brown realised he didn't have enough support to keep his post and resigned, allowing Kennett to retake the leadership unopposed. With Victoria facing billions of dollars of debt, Kennett was seen as "Premier-in-waiting" from the moment he retook the leadership. Cain had resigned a year earlier in favour of Deputy Premier Joan Kirner, who was unable to regain the upper hand despite being personally more popular than Kennett. The Liberals' advantage was strengthened by an important decision taken during Brown's brief tenure as leader—negotiating a Coalition agreement with the National Party. The Liberals and Nationals have historically had a strained relationship in Victoria; they had sat separately for most of the second half of the 20th century. It had been believed that Kennett had been denied victory in 1988 due to a large number of three-cornered contests in rural seats. The Coalition went into the October 1992 state election as unbackable favourites, having been ahead in opinion polling by large margins for almost two years. They stoked the voters' anger with a series of "Guilty Party" ads, targeting many Labor ministers and highlighting concerns in their portfolios. In the second-largest defeat that a sitting government has ever suffered in Victoria, the Coalition scored a 19-seat swing, attaining a 16-seat majority in the Legislative Assembly. The Liberals won 52 seats, enough for a majority in their own right. Nevertheless, Kennett supported his coalition partner, retaining the Nationals in his cabinet. State school closures In the first three years of office, funding for public schools and the Department of Education was substantially reduced. 350 government schools were closed, including every Technical High School ("Tech") in Victoria, and 7,000 teaching jobs eliminated. The Tech School closures had a widespread, delayed effect two decades later when a skilled labour shortage in the state was declared by the government, attributable largely to the generation of children who were denied a trade-focused high school education, significantly reducing the number of school leavers commencing trade apprenticeships. The few who did so were insufficient to counterbalance the number of retiring tradespeople in the coming years. This directly resulted in the number of Skilled Migrant (subclass 190) visas being made available each year increasing to 190,000 from 2012 and an active campaign to entice migrants with trade qualifications to Victoria. Public transport Other controversial moves included the sacking of 16,000 public transport workers in a major technological upgrade of the system, and the initiation of a major scheme for privatisation of state-owned services, including the electricity (SECV) and gas (Gas and Fuel Corporation of Victoria) utilities, the ambulance service, as well as several prisons and other minor services. The sale of the Totalisator Agency Board raised $609 million. Between 1995 and 1998, $29 billion of state assets in gas and electricity alone were sold to private enterprise (for statistics, see Parkinson, Jeff, 1999) In the wake of these changes, investment and population growth slowly resumed, though unemployment was to remain above the national average for the duration of Kennett's premiership. While the benefits to the State budget figures were indisputable in the short term, the social and longer-term economic cost of the Kennett reforms have been questioned by many commentators, academics and those who suffered economically through the period of reform. This campaign of privatisations and cutbacks led to governmental acts of privatisation by splitting up Melbourne's rail (Hillside, Bayside, V/Line and West Coast Rail) and tramways (Yarra and Swanston) or budget-cutting becoming popularly known as being "Jeffed". He also cut back many regional rail services including The Vinelander (ran to Mildura, services later restored to Maryborough as a regular V/Line service in 2011) and services to Leongatha, Bairnsdale (returned in 2003), Dimboola (services later returned to Ararat in 2004). The largest public protest in Melbourne since the Vietnam War Moratorium occurred on 10 November 1992, with an estimated 100,000 people marching in opposition to the retrenchment of many workers and the large State budget cutbacks. Kennett was undeterred by this protest, and famously commented that though there were 100,000 outside his office at Parliament that day, there were 4.5 million who stayed at home or at work. High-profile capital works projects This section does not cite any sources. Please help improve this section by adding citations to reliable sources. Unsourced material may be challenged and removed. (April 2025) (Learn how and when to remove this message) The Kennett government also embarked on a series of high-profile capital works projects, such as the restoration of Parliament House, construction of a new $250 million Melbourne Museum and IMAX theatre, and a new $130 million Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre. Other projects included a $160 million expansion of the National Gallery of Victoria; $100 million for refurbishment of the State Library of Victoria; $65 million for a new Melbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre (MSAC); and $130 million for the construction of a new civic square on the site of the old Gas and Fuel Buildings, to be known as Federation Square. The relocation of the Formula 1 Grand Prix from Adelaide in 1993 was a particular coup for Kennett, who had worked hard with his friend Ron Walker, the Chairman of the Melbourne Major Events Company, helped deliver Melbourne the hosting rights for the event from Adelaide in 1993. The most controversial project of the Kennett era was the $1.85 billion Crown Casino and Entertainment Complex, a gambling and entertainment centre on Melbourne's Southbank. Initial plans for a casino had been made under the Labor government, however the tendering process and construction occurred under Kennett. A$2 billion project to redevelop Melbourne's derelict Docklands area to include a new football stadium was also undertaken, in addition to the large CityLink project, a project resurrected from the 1969 Melbourne Transportation Plan, aimed at linking Melbourne's freeways, easing traffic problems in the inner city, and reducing commuting times from the outer suburbs to the CBD. Macedonian name dispute Kennett speaking at a event In the mid-1990s, Premier Kennett backed the Greek position over the Macedonian question in his attempts to shore up local electoral support. Kennett's stance gained him supporters from the Melburnian Greek community, whereas he was referred to as "Kennettopoulos" by the Macedonian community. At Kennett's insistence, his state government in 1994 issued its own directive that all its departments refer to the language as "Macedonian (Slavonic)" and to Macedonians as "Slav Macedonians". Reasons given for the decision were "to avoid confusion", be consistent with federal naming protocols toward Macedonians and repair relations between Macedonian and Greek communities. It was accepted that it would not impact the way Macedonians self identified themselves. The decision upset Macedonians, as they had to use the terms in deliberations with the government or its institutions related to education and public broadcasting. The Macedonian Community challenged the decision on the basis of the Race Discrimination Act. After years of litigation at the Australian Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commission (HREOC), the Federal Court and High Court, previous judicial rulings were upheld that found Kennett's directive unlawful as it caused discrimination based on ethnic background and was struck down from usage in 2000. Second term as premier Kennett's personal popularity was mostly average to high through his first term, though that of the government as a whole went through peaks and troughs. Without a by-election in the previous four years, the 1996 state election shaped up as the first test of the 'Kennett Revolution' with the electorate. The Coalition was expected to win a second term at the 30 March election, albeit with a somewhat reduced majority. At the federal election held four weeks earlier, while Labor was heavily defeated, it actually picked up a swing in Victoria. However, to the surprise of most commentators, the Coalition only suffered a two-seat swing, allowing it to retain a comfortable 14-seat majority. The Coalition actually picked up modest swings in Melbourne's outer suburbs, which have traditionally decided most state elections. Several negative trends (for the Liberals) were obscured somewhat by the euphoria of victory. The government's sharp cuts to government services were particularly resented in country Victoria, where the Liberals and Nationals held almost all the seats. The loss of the Mildura seat to independent Russell Savage was an indication of this disaffection, and when in February 1997 independent Susan Davies was elected to the seat of Gippsland West, this trend seemed set to continue. However, the verdict of many was that the 'Kennett Revolution' was far from over – indeed it was seemingly set in stone with the opening of the Crown Casino in May 1997. Kennett's profile continued to grow as he became a major commentator on national issues, including urging the new government of John Howard to introduce tax reform, and actively opposing the rise of the One Nation Party of Pauline Hanson. In this last case, Kennett did not shy away from criticising the media, but also the decision of the Howard government to not actively oppose Hanson's agenda. Kennett was influential in Melbourne bidding for the 2006 Commonwealth Games. Three cities initially expressed interest in hosting the event; Melbourne, Wellington and Singapore. Singapore dropped out before its bid was officially selected by the Commonwealth Games Federation, leaving only two candidate cities. In the weeks prior to the announcement of the 2006 host, Wellington withdrew its bid, citing the costs involved with matching the bid plan presented by Melbourne, which became the default host without members of the Federation going to vote. The government lost ground over the next few years, with high-profile disagreements with the Director of Public Prosecutions Bernard Bongiorno, and Auditor-General Ches Baragwanath fuelling criticism of Kennett's governmental style. Kennett's perceived antipathy to Baragwanath led to 1997 legislation to restructure the office of the Auditor-General and set up Audit Victoria. While Kennett promised the independence of the office would be maintained, many saw his government's actions as an attempt to curb the Auditor-General's power to criticise government policy. Widespread community debate and substantial public dissent from Liberal MPs and Party members ensued, with MLA Roger Pescott resigning from Parliament at the height of the debate; citing his disagreement with this Bill and Kennett's style in general. The Liberal Party lost the by-election in Mitcham. Further scandals involving the handling of contracts for the state emergency services response system damaged the credibility of Kennett in 1997–1998, while rural dissent continued to grow. Personal difficulties also began to affect Kennett and his family. The strains of public life led to a trial separation between Felicity and Jeff in early 1998 (patched up by the end of the year), while earlier in Kennett's first term, public scrutiny had led to the forced sale of the KNF Advertising Company, despite all Kennett's involvement having been transferred to his wife's name. There were rumours in 1998 that Kennett might retire from politics; these were mostly centred around Phil Gude, his party deputy. These eventually came to nothing. In July 1998, Liberal MP Peter McLellan, Member for Frankston East, resigned from the party in protest over alleged corrupt Liberal Party Senate preselection, changes to WorkCover and the auditor-general's office. Again, Kennett failed to pick up the warning signs of declining support for his style of leadership. Labor leader John Brumby took care to capitalise on each of Kennett's mistakes over this period, though his absences in rural electorates were misunderstood by many Labor MPs, and led to his replacement by Steve Bracks in early 1999. Bracks, who came from Ballarat, was popular in rural areas and was seen as a fresh alternative to Brumby, who nevertheless remained a key figure in the shadow Cabinet. 1999 election loss Despite Bracks' appeal, Kennett entered the 1999 election campaign with a seemingly unassailable lead, and most commentators and opinion polls agreed that the Coalition would win a third term. However, in a shock result, the Coalition suffered a 13-seat swing to Labor. While there was only a modest swing in eastern Melbourne, which has historically decided elections in Victoria, the Coalition suffered significant losses in regional centres such as Ballarat and Bendigo. ABC elections analyst Antony Green later said that when he first saw the results coming in, it looked so unusual that he thought "something was wrong with the computer." Initial counting showed Labor on 41 seats and the Coalition on 43; a supplementary election had to be held in Frankston East following the death of sitting independent Peter McLellan. The balance of power rested with three independents-Russell Savage, Susan Davies and newly elected Craig Ingram. Negotiations began between the Coalition and the three independents. While Kennett acceded to all but two of their demands, his perceived poor treatment of Savage and Davies in the previous parliament meant that they would not even consider supporting a Coalition minority government headed by Kennett. On 18 October, two days after Labor won the supplementary election in Frankston East, the independents announced they would support a Labor minority government. The agreement entailed Labor signing a Charter of Good Government, pledging to restore services to rural areas, and promising parliamentary reforms. Kennett's supporters urged the Coalition to force a vote of 'no confidence' on the floor of the parliament in a last-ditch effort to force Savage, Davies and Ingram to support Kennett. However, with the Liberals divided on Kennett's future role, Kennett retired from all of his offices, saying he wished to have no further involvement in politics. Labor won the ensuing by-election in Burwood. Rumoured returns to politics Following the Liberals' second successive defeat in the 2002 election, rumours began that Kennett was planning a comeback to politics. The issue came to a head in May 2006 after the sudden resignation of Kennett's successor, Robert Doyle, when Kennett announced he would contemplate standing in a by-election for Doyle's old seat of Malvern and offering himself as party leader. His stance was supported by Prime Minister John Howard, who rated him as the party's best hope to win the November 2006 state election. But within 24 hours Kennett announced he would not return to Parliament rather than running against Ted Baillieu, whom Kennett had been grooming for the top post since 1999. John Howard was reported to have been "embarrassed" by having publicly supported Kennett before his decision not to re-enter politics. In 2008, it was rumoured that Kennett was planning to stand for Lord Mayor of Melbourne. Despite endorsing future Lord Mayor John So in the 2001 mayoral elections, Kennett was quoted as saying "I think the city is ready for a change". Kennett claimed he had been approached by "a range of interests" to run for the position, but in the end did not do so. Former Liberal leader Robert Doyle ultimately won the election. 2020: Indigenous voice to government On 15 January 2020, it was announced that Kennett would be one of the members of the National Co-design Group of the Indigenous voice to government. Life after politics Kennett at the 2018 VFL Grand Final In 2000, Kennett became the inaugural chairman of beyondblue (the National Depression Initiative), a body that was largely formed by the efforts of the Victorian State Government. On 24 June 2008, he announced that he would be stepping down from his role at beyondblue at the end of 2010. This did not happen. After 17 years as the chair of beyondblue, he stood down in 2017, handing the reins to former PM Julia Gillard. He stated "beyondblue is part of my DNA, outside my family, it has been my most important role. Kennett has previously served on the boards of Australian Seniors Finance, a reverse mortgage company, and SelecTV, which was a satellite television group. Kennett has said in an interview that he rarely thinks about the media or "bloody history", though he regrets the "disastrous" introduction of the Metcard ticketing system for trains and trams. Kennett angered gay rights groups in July 2008 when he supported the Bonnie Doon Football Club in their sacking of trainer Ken Campagnolo for being bisexual; and compared homosexuality to pedophilia. Anti-discrimination campaigner Gary Burns pursued an action in the NSW Administrative Decisions Tribunal against Kennett for making the following statement: "The club felt that once this had been pointed out and you had this gentleman there who was obviously close to young men – massaging young men – it ran an unnecessary risk, and that's why it decided it was best that he not perform those duties again. So the club was trying to do the right thing," The case was dropped due to Gary Burns' lack of funds to pursue the case. Hawthorn FC presidency On 14 December 2005, Kennett was made president of Hawthorn Football Club, taking over from Ian Dicker. Following the exit of the St Kilda Football Club from the Tasmanian AFL market in 2006, Kennett was president when the Hawthorn Football Club negotiated a five-year sponsorship deal with the Tasmanian state government. The sponsorship deal was worth an estimated $12 million for which the Tasmanian government bought naming rights to the club's guernsey, and the HFC committed to playing an agreed number of pre-season and four regular season "home games" at York Park.[56] Kennett was instrumental in Hawthorn's 2007 5-year business plan titled "five2fifty", the core idea being that in the next five years the club will target to win 2 premierships and have fifty thousand members. As part of the plan, the football club wants to be seen as the most professional club in the AFL, and places great emphasis on the welfare of the people associated with the club. Following Hawthorn's 2008 AFL Grand Final victory over Geelong, Kennett claimed that the Cats "lacked the mentality to defeat Hawthorn", this being in reference to the Cats' inability to counter-attack the running game of the Hawks in the aforementioned Grand Final. Kennett's comments led to the subsequent eleven-match losing streak for Hawthorn against Geelong becoming known as the "Kennett curse". He stepped down at the end of his second three-year term in 2011, he also changed the club's constitution so that presidents could only serve two 3-year terms. Second stint Kennett at an AFL Women's match in 2023 In what Fox Footy described as a "stunning return",[59] Kennett was announced as the president of the Hawthorn Football Club on 4 October 2017 following the sudden resignation of the incumbent president Richard Garvey. Garvey had taken criticism on the hiring and later sacking of club CEO Tracey Gaudry. Kennett subsequently appointed Justin Reeves as the club's new CEO. On 4 October 2017 he announced that he would serve the position for a full 3-year term. Soon after his re-appointment, Kennett and the club released a vision statement outlining the future of the club up to 2050. The first five-year strategic plan titled 'Dare to be Different' will drive the club's priorities from 2018 to 2022. Kennett said: "Hawthorn we aren't ones to sit back and wait, we work hard to achieve and deliver exciting results, on and off the field. Our vision for our strategic plan, "Dare to be Different", encapsulates this as we continue to strive for excellence. "We have set ourselves some ambitious targets but all are within our grasp if we continue to innovate, grow and forge new frontiers within the AFL industry." On 6 July 2021, Kennett and the Hawthorn board announced that they would not be renewing head coach Alastair Clarkson's contract following its expiry at the conclusion of the 2022 AFL Premiership season. It was announced that Box Hill Hawks and Hawthorn development coach, former player Sam Mitchell had been chosen by Kennett and the board to become the Hawthorn coach at the end of Clarkson's reign. Chairman of The Original Juice Company On 12 December 2022, The Original Juice Company announced that it would appoint Kennett as Chairman and Non-Executive Director. Honours In the Australia Day Honours of 2005, Kennett received Australia's then highest civilian honour, when he was made a Companion of the Order of Australia (AC). The honour was for "service to the Victorian Parliament and the introduction of initiatives for economic and social benefit, to business and commerce, and to the community in the development of the arts, sport and mental health awareness strategies." In May 2000, he was also awarded an honorary doctorate – DBus (Honoris Causa) – by the University of Ballarat. Media work For a brief period during 2002, Kennett was a radio presenter for Melbourne station 3AK, continuing an interest in mass communication which was also a feature of his premiership. Since 2010, Kennett has been a regular contributor to Neil Mitchell's 3AW radio program every Thursday, as a social commentator. On 28 March 2013 it was announced that Kennett had joined the Seven television network as national political commentator which will involve him appearing on breakfast show Sunrise every Tuesday and on Seven news as required. On 12 February 2017 Jeff Kennett engaged ex-Seven West Media employee on Twitter over leaked documents potentially breaching the company's own gag order on Amber Harrison.
