Cancer impacts nearly all of us. Whether it’s from watching a family or a friend go through their battle, or surviving the fight yourself, facing it can feel overwhelming. But cancer doesn’t have to be the end of the story. A new terrain-based approach is helping people tackle the root causes and regain control in tandem with traditional treatments. For decades, this approach was overlooked, but now it is transforming lives, helping people not just survive but thrive long after a cancer diagnosis.​

DEEP DIVE ​ ​ Glyphosate and “Chemical Farming”: What’s Actually in Our Food System​ ​ I’ve been talking about RoundUp, glyphosate, GMOs, and the broader chemical-agriculture model for a long time. Not because farmers are the villain. Most are trying to survive inside a system that’s been engineered – economically and technologically – to make one path feel “inevitable.” What’s changed lately is the legal chessboard. The glyphosate debate is no longer only about toxicology. It’s also about whether everyday people keep the right to hold manufacturers accountable in court.​ The new battleground: legal immunity by “EPA approval”​ ​ Just this month (January 2026), the U.S. Supreme Court agreed to take up a Roundup case (the Durnell case out of Missouri) that could reshape pesticide accountability nationwide. Bayer (which acquired Monsanto in 2018) is arguing that because the EPA approved Roundup’s label without a cancer warning, state “failure-to-warn” lawsuits should be blocked.​ In other words: if a federal agency signed off on the label, the company says it shouldn’t be sued under state law for not warning people about harm.​ This is a direct threat to one of the last practical legal tools that farmers, farmworkers, and consumers have when regulators lag behind science. What could happen is scary – if federal approval becomes a shield against lawsuits, companies gain a powerful incentive to fight warning labels inside the regulatory process (where the public has limited leverage), instead of having to face a jury after people are harmed by their products.​ What’s even more alarming is the industry’s apparent multi-pronged push: lobbying, pressure campaigns, and state-level “pesticide preemption” bills designed to limit stronger state warnings or lawsuits even if the Supreme Court doesn’t fully deliver what Bayer wants.​ What the science debate is actually about​ ​

If you’re a woman ─ your body, your hormones, your life ─ everything feels so personal. You’re told to listen to your body, to trust it. But what if the truth is more complicated? Your hormonal system, which should nurture, protect, and regulate, can also become the soil where female cancers quietly grow. Estrogen. Progesterone. Insulin. Thyroid. Cortisol. When their balance wavers — after treatment, stress, or years of living ─ the environment shifts. Cells in your breasts or ovaries are more sensitive to hormone signals than nearly any other tissue in your body. That makes hormonal fluctuations more than just uncomfortable — they can become dangerous. Maybe you had treatment. Perhaps the tumor is gone. You thought, “I’m safe.” But deep inside, your body doesn’t forget. Unbalanced hormones, unresolved inflammation, and metabolic stress keep the terrain fertile. Resolving these issues can seem like climbing a mountain — but it can be started with something as gentle and empowering as what you eat today. In fact, the right approach to food can help stabilize hormones, reduce stress on the body, and supercharge your health with endless energy. That’s why our friends at Zonia released a brand new fr-ee guide called “The Cancer Shield Diet.” It outlines a revolutionary approach to eating, and provides practical, quick recipes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner you can try today — designed to support your health without depriving you of the joy of eating. Go here to get your fr-ee copy of this new guide: “The Cancer Shield Diet.” ​

When you get your fr-ee ebook today, you’ll also be invited to join CANCER UNRAVELED — an exclusive fr-ee online event where 43 of the world’s top integrative oncology doctors and cancer experts unpack what the book only starts to explain. In the event, you’ll discover why healing from cancer isn’t just about removing what you can see. Because while life may appear to return to “normal” — work, family, routines, dreams… Your body keeps the score. The lingering fatigue, the mood shifts, and the quiet symptoms no one can explain. They aren’t random. They’re signals. Signals that the terrain inside you ─ your hormones, metabolism, immune balance — still hasn’t recovered from the war it endured. That’s why we’re inviting you to access for fr-ee the cancer-fighting discoveries of these 43 medical doctors and cancer experts. What every woman should hear before she ever trusts “all clear” again: Click here to get your fr-ee eBook and secure your spot in the exclusive fr-ee event CANCER UNRAVELED today.

Hey Jimi, As the brutal winter storm sweeps the nation, please stay safe. This extreme cold is a massive stressor, forcing your immune system to divert energy just to keep you warm. When my body is stressed by an "arctic siege," I personally lean into natural adaptogens like medicinal mushrooms… And quercetin to help my system stay resilient. See the simple steps I take to support my body's natural protection in winter With love and care,​

 

[Jimi]

Ever notice how a cold or flu always seems to strike right after a brutal week of stress?



That’s not just bad luck—it’s biology.



There is a powerful field of science called Psychoneuroimmunology. It sounds complicated, but the core idea is simple and life-changing: Your thoughts, emotions, and stress levels are in a constant, 24/7 conversation with your immune system.



When you are under chronic stress, your mind "shouts" at your body, which:

• Weakens your natural defenses against viruses and bacteria.
• Fuels silent inflammation throughout your system.
• Opens the door to illness just when you need your health most.

If stress is doing all the talking, your health is paying the price. But once you understand the conversation, you can learn how to flip the switch back to "protection" mode.



Get the rest of the story here to see exactly why stress makes you sick—and what you can do about it now:

Let's not cry over spilled milk; let's talk about it! Dairy is one of the most misunderstood and unfairly blamed topics in the modern nutrition conversation, especially when it comes to breast cancer healing. THIS is why we dedicated a blog post to uncovering how different types of dairy are produced, processed, and tolerated by your body so that you can make the best decisions for your health. Once you start looking at what your body is exposed to: through food, hormones, and digestion, it becomes clear that detoxification is another essential pillar of healing. That’s why we’re hosting a FREE Parasite Masterclass on February 9 at 7 PM EST, where we’ll walk through why parasite cleansing matters, how to do it safely, and what to expect during a group cleanse.​

But healing doesn’t stop at food or detox protocols—it’s also about restoring the internal environment where true recovery happens. That’s why we’re also inviting you to a powerful free global event, Cancer Unraveled, where Dr. Michael Karlfeldt joins 43 leading oncology and functional medicine experts to explore what many conventional approaches overlook: the cancer terrain.​

​ ​

And because healing is never just physical, listen to our latest podcast episode featuring the wise Dr. Zinggrebe. This heartfelt conversation dives into managing pressure, easing fear through gratitude, rebuilding trust in your body, and nurturing the emotional and spiritual side of healing.​

​ ​

Is Dairy Inflammatory or is it the Way Dairy is Produced?​

Dairy often gets labeled as “bad” in breast cancer conversations, but the real story is more specific.​

In our latest blog, we unpack why milk isn’t automatically the enemy—chemicals, ultra-processing, and synthetic hormones are often the bigger issue. You’ll learn the key differences between raw milk, organic pasture-raised dairy, and conventional ultra-processed milk, plus why some symptoms are related to lactose, A1 vs. A2 proteins, or the type of dairy (full-fat vs. low-fat). We also share a simple healing upgrade: swapping inflammatory seed oils for butter or ghee when dairy is tolerated.​

Healing Beyond the Diagnosis​

What does true healing really mean: beyond scans, protocols, and treatment plans? In this powerful episode of Wellness Warriors, we sit down with Achim Zinggrebe, MD, a physician who has experienced cancer from every angle: as a doctor, a patient, and the son of a patient.​

​ ​

That rare perspective reshaped how he understands healing. Not just as survival, but as transformation. We talk about bridging the gap between patients and doctors, navigating fear with grace, integrating mind-body-spirit support alongside conventional care, and why healing often truly begins after treatment ends. This conversation is grounded, compassionate, and deeply validating for anyone walking a cancer journey or supporting someone who is.​

America has taken control of its health decisions moving forward!​ President Donald Trump signed the executive order to withdraw the United States from the World Health Organization on his first day in office, and after the required one-year waiting period, the withdrawal is now official. The WHO repeatedly let America down during the pandemic, showing it serves Big Pharma and other major donors rather than the health of the American people. MAHA™ called for this change, and President Trump delivered. Join us today at 4:00 PM ET for the Weekly MAHA Media Hub, where we will discuss this historic win and hear from leaders in our movement.

Have you ever heard of hyperbaric oxygen therapy, or HBOT? Most people haven’t, but it’s becoming one of the most powerful ways to support nervous system function. Your nervous system is the command center for your entire body. It coordinates movement, organ function, and even immune responses. When oxygen delivery slows, your systems can’t operate at full capacity. Clarity, reaction time, stress resilience, and overall coordination can all be impacted. That’s where HBOT comes in. By increasing oxygen availability at the cellular level, it helps your nervous system Communicate more efficiently with your organs, muscles, and immune system Recover from stress, inflammation, or subtle injury Maintain long-term neural balance and functional resilience Support overall energy, focus, and vitality This week, Trevor King, Head Researcher at The Live Better Group, is presenting a webinar explaining exactly how HBOT works to optimize the nervous system. (Use the image below to register now.)​

You’ll learn how practitioners are using oxygen therapy to enhance cellular communication, support recovery, and improve nervous system performance without drugs or invasive procedures.

There are two MAJOR food corporations who are holding out – and have NOT committed to removing dyes from their products:

1. PepsiCo: They make Doritos, Cheetos, Gatorade, Cap’n Crunch, and Mountain Dew.
2. Mars Candy: They make M&M’s, Skittles, Starburst, and Life Savers.

It’s insulting that these brands continue to poison Americans, while selling safer versions of their products in other countries.

PepsiCo went out and created a whole new “dye free” version of Doritos and Cheetos that doesn’t solve the problem.



This is ridiculous.

Why don’t they simply remove the artificial ingredients from regular Doritos and Cheetos that virtually everyone is buying?

Because they’re making bank poisoning Americans for profit – that’s why.

No one should be supporting these brands until they stop poisoning Americans with ingredients they don’t use in other countries.

Americans should stop buying Doritos, M&M’s, Skittles, Mountain Dew, and voting with our dollars until they finally do the right thing.

Regulatory change at the federal level is a complex process and takes a very long time.

This is why not buying their products is the best winning strategy.

These corporations are going to have to finally decide to stop poisoning Americans, and I'll be working every day to make sure that happens.

​ When the WHO Lost the Plot--and the Funding​ When the World Health Organization issued its carefully worded statement on January 24, 2026, responding to the formal notification of U.S. withdrawal, the tone was calm, regretful, and resolutely moral. The world, it warned, would be less safe without the United States. Cooperation saves lives. Science must transcend politics. The statement read less like an internal reckoning and more like a sermon delivered after the congregation had already walked out the door.

Hi jimi. If you’ve been struggling with hormone symptoms — irregular cycles, PMS, night sweats, fatigue, hair shedding, anxiety, weight changes, or gut flare-ups — there’s one area that often gets overlooked: Thyroid function. Not just TSH… but the full thyroid system that regulates metabolism, ovarian hormone production, gut motility, bile flow, nervous system tone, and inflammatory balance. When the thyroid is even slightly underperforming, the entire hormone landscape becomes unstable. That’s why I want you to have this resource: Download: Heal Your Thyroid First — The Missing Link for Hormone Balance (Fr-ee) ​

​

Inside, you’ll learn: Why hormone imbalance rarely improves without addressing thyroid physiology How thyroid hormones regulate digestion, motility, and bile flow Why stress, infections, mold, nutrient depletion & dysbiosis impair thyroid output The hidden signs of suboptimal thyroid function (often missed in standard labs) Which nutrients, lifestyle factors, and testing strategies actually move the needle A step-by-step roadmap for supporting thyroid repair and hormone balance If your symptoms have felt “mysterious,” inconsistent, or cyclical… this guide may explain exactly why. Download it here (fr-ee) To your health,​

Hi Jimi,
Even the most health-conscious people can feel inflamed, tired, or foggy despite eating all of the “right” foods. If you’re exploring nutrition on a deeper level, the why is essential to understand.

The missing piece? Silent inflammation that begins in the gut and disrupts everything from hormones to brain function. It's often overlooked and so important to talk about, which is why we are hosting a FREE online webinar next week.

CLICK HERE to save your spot to the Learn How to Reduce Hidden Inflammation Naturally webinar. >>

Discover why you’re still feeling exhausted, foggy, or inflamed even though you eat 'healthy'. We’re going to show you:

• The top “healthy” foods that can trigger immune stress
• How inflammation often hides in plain sight (fatigue, PMS, brain fog, hair loss)
• Why gut healing—not calorie counting—is the key to true recovery
• The framework we use to assess the root cause, not just manage symptoms

This is the science-backed, client-supporting strategy you didn’t get in traditional training.

Bonus When You Register: Get our 7-Day Gut Healing Anti-Inflammatory Meal Program instantly! It's complete with recipes, meal plans, shopping lists & tips from the Food Matters Nutrition Certification Course.

Hi Jimi, Most people think sweat is just something you deal with… On a hot day. During a workout. Or when stress hits. But researchers are now saying sweat may be far more important than we’ve been told. The fluid your body releases every day carries a kind of internal “fingerprint”, which can reveal early warning signs of disease years before symptoms ever show up. And what’s showing up in sweat is not vague. We’re talking about measurable biomarkers tied to: glucose and metabolic dysfunction cortisol and chronic stress electrolyte imbalances inflammation signals even toxin and heavy metal exposure In other words… Your body may be quietly signaling trouble long before a doctor would ever catch it on a routine visit. That’s why the most interesting part of this new research isn’t just the science, it’s what it could mean for everyday people. Sweat monitoring doesn’t require a needle. It doesn’t require a lab. And it doesn’t require waiting until your health is already falling apart. Some wearable patches now collect real-time data on the skin for days, feeding it to AI models. These models interpret internal body changes based on your baseline and environment. While there are still limitations (sweat can evaporate, be contaminated, and results can vary)... The direction is clear: Health monitoring is moving away from “wait until something breaks” and toward early detection and prevention. And that’s exactly how I think about protecting my health. Not by relying on a system that reacts late, but by paying attention early. If you want to see what researchers are finding in sweat, and why this could become one of the most important early-warning tools of the next few years, then I recommend reading the full report: Read the full report on how your sweat may reveal disease years before symptoms show up To your health, Jonathan Otto P.S. One of the smartest ways to support your body long before symptoms appear is strengthening your cells. Because when your cells produce energy efficiently… your body becomes harder to break down. That’s one reason red light therapy has become such a practical tool for modern health, it supports cellular function in a way you can actually feel. So if you want to explore trusted red light therapy insights and resources, you can start here.​

Hi there Jimi, Chronic fatigue patients often focus on infections and toxins while missing a critical piece of the puzzle: structural dysfunction and lymphatic drainage. In the latest episode of the Gordon Medical Forum podcast, Eric Gordon, MD sits down with Raymond Perrin, DO, PhD, the osteopath whose groundbreaking research in the early 1990s revealed how thoracic spine dysfunction and impaired neurolymphatic flow drive neuroinflammation in ME/CFS.​

Dr. Perrin explains why treating the sympathetic nervous system through spinal manipulation and cranial work can restore glymphatic drainage from the brain, and how structural injuries create the conditions for toxin accumulation and persistent inflammation that keep people chronically ill. Episode Highlights: Thoracic spine dysfunction activates sympathetic overdrive and blocks lymphatic drainage, creating conditions for neuroinflammation and chronic illness. The glymphatic system drains toxins from the brain through specific pathways that malfunction in ME/CFS, fibromyalgia, and Long COVID. Structural injuries and spinal misalignments create the underlying conditions that allow infections or toxins to trigger chronic illness.

Red and Near-Infrared Light​

There are now over 6,000 scientific studies showing that specific wavelengths of red and near-infrared light can stimulate collagen production, reduce inflammation, and activate systemic anti-aging mechanisms, including growth factors and stem cells that enhance cellular regeneration. The challenge has always been knowing exactly how to use it effectively. Which devices actually work, the specific wavelengths, and how often and for how long. Our friend and colleague, Ari Whitten, has a new book, The Ultimate Guide to Red Light Therapy, co-authored with Dr. Michael Hamblin, a Harvard professor and light therapy scientist, that helps answer these questions and is a great resource. Topics covered include: Exactly how red light stimulates your mitochondria to produce more energy The specific wavelengths and doses that are most effective for fighting fatigue Which devices are best for energy optimization How to build an effective daily light therapy routine For the book launch, he is also offering a generous number of additional educational bonus gifts we hope you take advantage of.​

Spotlight: Your vision...

Our email earlier this week raised a lot of questions about natural vision support so we wanted to clarify something quick...

Maybe it's because most of us reading this are over 40 and have spent more time than we care to admit on social media, and it's contributing to Digital Eye Strain/Computer Vision Syndrome. (More on that under the picture below)...

As we age they might start experiencing sudden vision changes that can take them by surprise. That’s because as we get on in years, our eyes naturally undergo changes that can lead to a host of vision problems, particularly for those aged 41 and up.

In today’s digital world, prolonged screen time and exposure to blue light add to these challenges, contributing to eye strain, dry eyes, headaches, and even potential long-term damage like macular degeneration. Blue light disrupts sleep by suppressing melatonin and strains the eyes due to its high-energy wavelengths.

We’ll explore the most common vision problems in adults, the risk factors—such as aging, screen habits, and environmental factors—that influence their development, and, most importantly, practical steps you can take to protect your eyes and preserve your vision for years to come.

--> With these proper nutrients in your food & supplements, your eyes can naturally protect themselves from aging and worsening eyesight.

TAKE ACTION

Love Shouldn’t Be Toxic: Regulate Pesticides on Flowers​

As Valentine’s Day approaches, millions of people will give flowers as a symbol of love without realizing that those bouquets may be coated in toxic pesticides. Unlike food, flowers are not regulated for pesticide residues, meaning there is no limit to how much poison can be left on a single bouquet, including chemicals banned on food crops.

Unregulated flowers put farmworkers and florists at serious risk, with exposures linked to cancer, birth defects, and long-term illness. From flower farms in Kenya and Colombia to florist shops in the U.S., workers report devastating health impacts while companies evade accountability.

Love shouldn’t come at the cost of workers’ lives.

Please sign this alert and tell Congress to begin regulating pesticides on flowers!

When traditions rely on harmful practices, sustainability doesn’t always mean finding a better version of the same thing; sometimes it means opting out. Valentine’s Day offers an opportunity to reimagine what a meaningful gift looks like, especially in places where ethical, organic flowers aren’t available, and the more responsible choice may be to skip flowers entirely in favor of gifts that align with our values.

Choose Valentine’s gifts that reflect care for people, workers, and the planet

NUTRITIOUS & DELICIOUS

The 17 Healthiest Vegetables To Include in Your Diet​

Emily Craig, Telegraph:

“We all know vegetables are good for us, but they aren’t created equal. While they’re all a source of fiber – something the majority of us should be eating more of – as well as vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, these compounds are less concentrated in some varieties.

All vegetables are nutritious, says Rhiannon Lambert, a nutritionist, the founder of the top Harley Street clinic Rhitrition and the author of The Science of Plant-Based Nutrition.

While the vegetables we eat have changed through the generations, one thing that has remained the same is their important role in our health. They enhance our immune system and maintain our bones, muscles and organs. ‘Five a day’ is the mantra that has been drilled into us for the last two decades but the consensus is the more, the merrier. Recently, scientists have called for people to aim for 30 different varieties of plant per week (though, admittedly, this includes nuts, seeds and whole grains, as well as vegetables and fruit).

So, if we’re eating fewer vegetables, it’s important to make sure we’re maximizing our nutritional bang for buck. While ‘including as many different types of vegetables in your diet is the goal’, some varieties do come up trumps, Lambert explains. Red, orange, and yellow vegetables are high in vitamins A and C, while dark greens contain iron and folate, but those with a high water content – cucumber, marrow and cabbage – offer fewer nutrients.”

Here’s Lambert’s pick of the most nutritious veg

The Corporate Capture of MAHA: How the Chemical Lobby Is Stealing Our Health Again​

Lee Evslin writes for The New Lede:

“For months leading up to the 2024 election, the ‘Make America Healthy Again’ (MAHA) movement captivated a nation overwhelmed by chronic diseases. I found hope in a powerful promise regarding our food supply: we would finally stop poisoning our own people.

We were told that the new administration would take a sledgehammer to the corrupt alliance between federal regulators and the chemical industry. We were promised a war on the health epidemic that is sickening our children.

The MAHA vote in 2024 was a cry for help. It was a demand for regenerative farming, for the removal of toxic chemicals, and for a government that feared parents more than it feared lobbyists.

Instead, the movement has been hijacked. The final MAHA policy drafts barely mention pesticides. The administration is asking the Supreme Court to shield Bayer using fraudulent science. And the ‘health’ movement is being used to entrench a system where regulatory agencies ignore 21st-century medicine to protect 20th-century profits.

I believed they were addressing one of the most important public health issues of our times. But that critical mission has been co-opted and corrupted by industrial forces far more powerful than the movement itself.”

Washington State’s First-in-the-Nation Ban on Toxic Bisphenols in Receipts Takes Effect​

What’s Up Media:
“On January 1, 2026, a new rule took effect in Washington state banning all bisphenols in receipt paper, prioritizing the health of people and safer solutions. This makes Washington the first state in the nation to take this action.
Millions of people handle receipts every day from restaurants, retailers, and pharmacies. This has been a hidden source of exposure to bisphenols. These chemicals even rub off onto money. Cashiers and other retail workers face especially high risks, because the chemicals transfer from paper to skin. The new rules, adopted under the state’s Safer Products law, applies to thermal receipt paper, as well as thermal paper used for tickets and labels.
‘This is what health-protective policy looks like,’ said Cheri Peele, director of government and market policy at Toxic-Free Future. By banning all bisphenols in receipts, Washington is putting people’s health first and stopping toxic chemicals before they reach workers’ hands and families’ homes.
A 2023 study by Michigan-based nonprofit Ecology Center found bisphenols in 80% of paper receipts from large retailers—which actually represented a significant decline from 2017, when researchers found bisphenols in 93% of receipts.”
The state determined there are safer alternatives available—and that we don’t have to accept outdated harmful chemicals as the cost of doing business

NEW RESEARCH

Elderberry: This Antioxidant-Rich Berry Could Be a Big Deal for Blood Sugar Control​

by Stacey Leasca, Food & Wine:
“Elderberry is known for its tart flavor, similar to a blackberry at peak ripeness. It’s fantastic in salads and an excellent pairing with figs. And, as one new study explains, it may also one day help people reverse insulin resistance.
In December, researchers from the Cleveland Clinic published their study’s findings in the journal Molecular Metabolism, explaining how the tiny elderberry may hold significant powers.
According to the researchers, the key player is cinnamic acid, a compound found in elderberry extract (and other fruits like tart cherries). In the study, mice were fed a high-fat diet with or without elderberry extract. When the animals that consumed the elderberry extract had a normal gut microbiome, a common gut bacterium, Clostridium sporogenes, converted cinnamic acid into a metabolite that helps break down food into energy and is transported from the intestines to the liver. Once there, the team said, it ‘activates pathways that improve insulin control and reduce fat creation.’”
Elderberry extract appeared to help blunt signs of insulin resistance and fatty liver

BILLIONS AGAINST BAYER

Supreme Court Case Puts Public Health at Risk as Bayer Seeks Liability Protection​

The Supreme Court is considering a case that could determine whether families, workers, and communities poisoned by toxic pesticides will retain the ability to hold manufacturers accountable.

If the Court rules in favor of Bayer in Monsanto v. Durnell, pesticide producers could be shielded from failure-to-warn lawsuits, leaving many victims without recourse or compensation.

In 2025, two states, Georgia and North Dakota, took the right to sue away from plaintiffs claiming agricultural chemicals caused deaths or illnesses.

The pesticide companies are lobbying the Supreme Court, Congress, and the Environmental Protection Agency to give them a nationwide liability shield.

In the meantime, they’re going state-by-state. So far in 2026, Bayer (Monsanto) has bills in Florida, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, North Carolina, Oklahoma, and Tennessee.

If these bills become law, they would block justice for anyone killed or injured by any of the 57,000 pesticides approved for any use in the U.S. today, not just those used on farms.

People must retain the right to seek justice when they are sickened or killed by toxic pesticides. With the executive branch and state officials failing to protect the public. Congress must act. Children and young people, whose cancer rates are rising fastest, depend on it. We must also urge our Legislators to oppose efforts to help Bayer escape liability for deaths and injuries.

The suffering of Americans who have developed cancer due to exposure to Monsanto’s Roundup herbicide must be addressed.

Tell Congress to Pass the Pesticide Injury Accountability Act!

Tell Your State to Ban Glyphosate, Not Bail Out Bayer!
