Chicago doctor releases 1 exciting brain health breakthrough
If you’re over 50 and want a healthier brain as you age, you’ll want to check out a new exciting brain health breakthrough.

You see, your brain is like any part of your body — it’s made up of billions of cells.

And if you want your brain to stay in tip-top shape, it needs to make sure that your brain cells will recycle and clean out their own wastes.

The problem is, because of poor lifestyle choices and old age your body’s ability to regenerate diminishes… and all the wastes and toxins build up inside your brain as cellular junk…

Which in turns causes cellular damage and your brain performance to drop significantly.

Unmanaged cellular junk could lead to serious neurodegenerative problems like memory loss, brain fog, Alzheimer’s, and dementia.

Fortunately, Dr. Ron Rosendale, a world-class longevity and metabolic disease expert, has uncovered a simple solution that can help reverse and even in some cases prevent cellular junk from poisoning your healthy brain.

Best of all, anybody can do it from the comfort of their own home — without any doctor visits or drugs filled with side effects.

His discovery is now helping thousands of men and women all around the world slow down cognitive decline and keep their mind sharp throughout their 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s and even beyond.

He reveals his method (and more healthy aging tips) in a viral, no cost Masterclass you can register below:

Dr. Ron Rosedale serves as the personal physician to many big-name celebrities, athletes, and entrepreneurs.

Now he says, “I’ve wanted to show people not only what you can do to protect your brain health and prolong youthfulness but also how to do it in an effortless way. My goal is to give people all of the right tools in a step-by-step fashion that will work for anyone, really even for people who haven't paid attention to their health at all, previously…”

And he adds, “So if watching this masterclass helps you take more control over your brain and your health, please share this with your loved ones.”

Hi Jimi
​
We thought 2020 was rough, then 2021 happened…

Australia has gone mad with self imprisonment, the Taliban is in power again, and working class heroes all over the country are being forced to choose between bodily autonomy and their livelihoods.

Just like we did and continue to do with medical cannabis, it’s time to fight harder against the establishment.

So we began to seek out strategic resources to help you and your neighbors to become extraordinary in the fight against these medical tyrants.

One of those resources is an upcoming event called the Health Freedom Summit that is absolutely can’t-miss.

You’ll learn how to effectively fight for health freedom at a national and neighborhood level and get the information you need to make informed choices for you and your family.

Go here to watch the trailer and save your seat.

Hi Jimi,
When most people think about the keto diet they only think about weight loss… and all the things you can’t eat.
But the truth is, keto is much more than a diet…
It can help fight inflammation, fatigue and even stabilize your mood… all while effortlessly losing weight.
The science behind ketosis and what it does FOR your body is overwhelming.
And the best part is that you can really eat well… when you know what to eat. Unfortunately, there is just so much bad information out there.
That’s why when I saw that the 2nd Annual Global Virtual Keto Summit was coming up this February 26th I knew I had to share it with you ASAP.
>>> Register now at no cost
You will see so many familiar faces who will not only talk about the latest information on keto and ketosis, but will leave you ready to take action immediately towards bettering yourself.
I encourage you to grab your complimentary seat while it is still available.

Get your seat right here for no cost.
I hope to see you there.
Be Blessed!
Dr. David Jockers

Hello Jimi,

Back by popular demand - the new 2022 Health Freedom Summit. Dr Paul is sharing the latest research that compares vaccinated to unvaccinated children and adults.

Two years ago, a state of emergency was created.
At first, many people were confused.
It is now obvious that our altruistic nature to serve our neighbor was manipulated.
It’s clear our rights were systematically turned into privileges.

But the Constitution and the Bill of Rights are more important in a state of emergency. In an emergency where lives and livelihoods may be at risk, people must be free to quickly and effectively do what they must. Mandates that restrict free speech, free movement, or free commerce always result in unnecessary loss. Free speech, uncensored information, and the ability to act quickly without restraint become more important.

In an emergency, our freedoms are more important. Not less.

I invite you to join me for a strategy event designed to inform and equip as many people as possible as we pass landmark legislation and take community action to ensure our rights are never turned into privileges again.

In the Health Freedom Summit speakers like Dr. Peter McCullough, (the most published scientist on Sars-Cov-2) Dr. Pierre Kory, and Dr. Christina Parks reveal agendas within the medical-industrial complex and warn that decisions within the sacred patient/physician relationship can never again be politicized.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Jeff Witzeman, Thomas Renz, Mary Holland, Pam Popper, and Peggy Hall, share landmark lawsuits showing how they’re successfully countering declared states of emergency. We’re also introducing a unique training platform called Bonds for the Win that’s educating people on how to hold elected officials accountable to their oaths of office. Restored accountability at every level of government is an important protection against future federal and global agendas.

If the Constitution and the Bill of Rights can be canceled by a state of emergency, guess what we’re going to have? Perpetual Emergencies.
We invite you to be a part of the offensive team and as we go for the win.


Sincerely
Dr. Paul​

Do you feel confident in your at-home br-east self-exam (BSE) skills? Do you know what you're supposed to be feeling for?

It’s not your fault if you don’t -- women are often not properly trained in BSE skills or empowered in self-awareness.

Until now.

--->>Improve your BSE skills when you register for this complimentary, live webinar with Dr. Veronique!

If you miss the live webinar on Thursday, March 3, 2022, it will be available for replay on demand for a few days after -- you’ll get an email about it afterward if you register now!

Why attend this important health event?
Since early detection of br-east cancer is essential to better treatment outcomes and long-term survival, it only makes sense that the more skilled you are, and the better you know what’s normal for you, the higher the chances you’ll find a lump sooner than later, and smaller.

--->>Would you rather find a ping pong ball or a pea-sized lump?

This potentially life-saving webinar could help you:
  • Understand the importance of very early detection
  • Detect smaller lumps (and sooner)
  • Learn 7 methods for detecting a lump
  • Know signs and symptoms of br-east cancer
  • Assess and reduce risk factors
  • Feel the difference between benign and suspicious lumps
  • Increase self-awareness
  • 3 critical components for a successful BSE
​
About Dr. V, your webinar host:
Dr. Véronique Desaulniers, first began her journey with cancer in 2004 after she found a lump. She chose to take the road less traveled and explored natural treatments.

Now having celebrated victory over cancer twice, she has become extremely passionate about teaching women how to properly conduct a self-exam.

She’s here to empower you by sharing her proven self-exam protocols.

You’ll learn to confidently and skillfully perform an effective BSE with Dr. V’s at-home method based on the recognized standard for performing and teaching clinical and personal examination for over 30 years, The MammaCare Method®.

If you miss the live webinar, it will be available for replay for a few days after, so be sure to register for that notification, as well!

Yes, you truly have the means to get started on better health today!

--->>We’ll see you online with Dr. V to learn about her improved self-exam techniques, when you register now!​
Because health means everything,​

The antidote to federal overreach into our communities is…a strong community. Get active with your neighbors. Talk to your lawmakers. Let them know what issues are important to you and your family. Let them know how you will vote. Educate them on health freedom and privacy issues if they aren’t up to speed. Creating local connections and health freedom allies is the best way to protect our families. This is why the federal government pushed the fear agenda with masks and separation and propaganda about asymptomatic spread—to separate us from our neighbors and make it easier to put their policies in our communities.

3 Mushrooms For Memory And Brain Health
  1. Shiitake Mushrooms
    Shiitake mushrooms are a fantastic source of B vitamins. The Folate and Vitamin B6 found in Shiitake mushrooms in particular are essential for overall brain health due to their central role in breaking down homocysteine.

    Homocysteine is a by-product our body creates after breaking down amino acids. High levels of homocysteine can be damaging to blood vessels in our brain which increases our risk of developing Alzheimer’s and dementia.(1)

    Thanks to the B vitamins in Shiitake mushrooms, our brain is protected from the damaging effects of homocysteine AND they also provide the brain the energy it needs to keep creating new brain cells.

  2. White Button Mushrooms
    Yes, our favorite pizza topping, the humble White Button mushroom packs some serious brian-boosting nutrition, particularly the antioxidant selenium.

    A study found that selenium intake and brain health are directly linked especially for cognition, memory, coordination and motor performance.(2) Considering selenium is also an antioxidant, it helps to reduce inflammation in the brain.(3) These are all factors that help slow or prevent neurodegenerative diseases.

    To top it off, White Button mushrooms are loaded with dietary fiber and special polysaccharide carbohydrates which act as gut-loving prebiotics. And as we all know, a healthy gut is a healthy brain!

  3. Tremella Mushrooms
    Tremella Mushrooms are another fantastic option for your brain health. Not only do they protect your brain from damage but they also encourage brain cell production and enhance overall brain function.

    A study found that Tremella mushrooms can have a direct positive effect in Alzheimers so much so that it shows a high potential as a preventative measure against neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimers. (4)

    Eat this nutrient-dense mushroom to give your brain a boost while simultaneously protecting it.

Add these mushrooms to your daily life and look forward to enhanced cognitive function and a sharp memory for years to come!
With over 50,000 known species of mushrooms, it’s easy to find the ones you enjoy.
Our friends at Zonia have narrowed down 10 superstar mushrooms that specifically protect your brain and prevent neurodegeneration.

Bacterial Infections Linked to Strokes, Heart Disease

By Chauncey Crandall, M.D.

A Finnish research group has been studying a possible association between bacterial infections and cardiovascular disease for more than 10 years.

Their study, published in the Journal of the American Heart Association, looked for signs during a four-year period of bacteria in blood clots removed from 75 patients who were treated for an ischemic stroke.

Special: The Shocking Truth About Magnesium

Ischemic stroke is caused by a blockage in a blood vessel in the brain, and accounts for about 87% of all strokes.

The study found that 84% of the participants had bacterial DNA in their blood clot. Among them, 59 had a strain of streptococci commonly found in the mouth that can cause infections if they get into the bloodstream.

The work is "the first to show common presence of [this] bacterial DNA in ischemic stroke patients," said Olli Patrakka, the study's lead author.

The bacteria, called viridans streptococci, are believed to cause endocarditis, an infection of the lining, valves, or muscles of the heart.

The same strain of streptococci has been found in blood clots removed from patients who had a heart attack. Additional studies found the same bacteria in patients who had a ruptured brain aneurysm or a blood clot in their leg.

Watch the Anita Moorjani Episode
of The HEAL Podcast Now on YouTube
​
​
While tens of thousands of listeners have been tuning in to every episode of The HEAL Podcast on both Spotify and Apple Podcasts, we wanted to make our most popular episodes even more accessible by posting the video recording of them to our YouTube Channel. Today's release:

Anita Moorjani - A Near-Death Experience, Spontaneously Healing Cancer, and Living Life Without Fear

After a 4-year battle with cancer, Anita went into a coma, her organs were shutting down and her body was no longer absorbing nutrition. The doctors told her family that she had mere hours to live. In those moments, Anita had a near-death experience and realized with total clarity why she had gotten the cancer and after a conversation with the essence of her father, she woke up from her coma. Three weeks later the cancer was gone. When I heard Anita’s story I was fired up and finally ready to move forward and make HEAL. Anita is living proof that so much more is possible when it comes to healing and it is so deeply related to our consciousness and beliefs! This episode is for anyone touched by cancer, anyone needing a large dose of hope, and for all the empaths out there that are looking for tools to help navigate this increasingly harsh world and step into their power and purpose.

Stay tuned for more full video episode releases on YouTube in the weeks to come. You can also listen to this episode and all other episodes of The HEAL Podcast now on both SPOTIFY or APPLE.

The word “metabolism” gets tossed around quite a bit, usually in the context of weight loss.
It’s important to realize that our metabolic health is so much more than that—it’s the way our 37 trillion cells create energy, so that we can do all the things we want to do in life, big and small.
With that in mind, it’s pretty alarming to note that nine of the ten leading causes of death in the US are directly caused or worsened by poor blood sugar control and declines in other metabolic markers. Chronic diseases like diabetes, heart disease, stroke, Alzheimer’s, cancer, and more are all linked in one way or another to various metabolic dysfunctions.
Today on The Dhru Purohit Podcast, Dhru talks to Dr. Casey Means about the best ways to dial-in our metabolic health and take back control of how we feel and how we age.

Your Daily Motivation​

Friday​

February-25-2022
Living life in a constant state of gratitude involves acknowledging you have so much to be thankful for at this moment, despite all the challenges you're facing.

Be grateful for every good thing that comes to you. Gratitude gives you the power to cope with stress by shifting your attention away from unhealthy emotions.

It reminds you of what's truly important as you go through life's ups and downs. Living in a constant state of gratitude allows you to reframe difficult situations and cultivate patience.

You learn to derive maximum satisfaction from what you have rather than mindlessly chasing the next thing.

Acid Issues: Symptoms, Causes, and Remedies
Beautiful Woman
Millions of Americans suffer on a daily basis with acid-related discomfort.* These digestive issues can disrupt your daily life and your sleep. The good news is that by understanding what causes these acid problems and by implementing a few mitigating strategies, you can reduce your current symptoms and perhaps eliminate them altogether.

Why Do So Many People
Experience Acid Discomfort?​

The most common cause of acid-related discomfort is when stomach acid flows back into the esophagus or throat.* Our bodies have a valve called the esophageal sphincter, which normally keeps this acidic content in the stomach, but as this valve becomes weak, stomach acid and other stomach contents can make their way back into the throat, causing irritation and discomfort.
When this happens, you’ll likely feel one or more of the following:*
  • Heartburn (burning sensation in your chest)
  • Chest pain
  • Sore throat
  • Trouble swallowing
  • Food regurgitation
  • Cough
Most people experience symptoms after eating and for some people, the worst symptoms occur when lying down to sleep.
And if these acid issues are not addressed, they can lead to serious health concerns, so don’t ignore the symptoms and try to just “tough it out.

​

What Lifestyle Factors Relate
to Acid Issues?​

Age is certainly one important factor related to acid issues and heartburn since the esophageal sphincter can lose its strength over time. With constant use over the years, this valve can lose its ability to stay tightly closed, and this is why acid problems are more prevalent in people over the age of 40.*
Other lifestyle causes of acid issues include:* * *
  • Smoking
  • Eating large meals
  • Eating spicy or fatty foods
  • Eating too quickly
  • Coffee
  • Alcohol
  • Certain medications
  • Pregnancy
Stress is another common cause of acid problems.* This is due to the body’s natural response to release certain hormones during times of stress that cause the stomach to make more acid than is needed.
An imbalance of healthy bacteria in the stomach is another cause for excess acid production. If there is an overabundance of a certain bacteria or an invasion of infectious bacteria, like Helicobacter pylori (H. Pylori), this can contribute to acid symptoms and discomfort as well.*
Also, those who are obese are more prone to suffering from acid-related discomfort. Carrying extra weight can cause many issues when it comes to the digestive system and leads to heartburn, especially when the weight is carried mostly in the abdominal area.
The main reason obesity contributes to acid symptoms is because obesity leads to dysfunction of the esophagus and the esophageal sphincter.*
Studies have found that participants who had a body mass index (BMI) greater than 35 had a weakening of the esophageal sphincter and a decrease in the overall pressure of the esophagus. Both issues decrease how well your food moves through your digestive tract causing acid-related symptoms.*

How Your Diet Can Help (and Hurt)
Your Acid Issues​

Since acid issues originate in your digestive tract, it should be no surprise that your diet can play a major role in reducing your symptoms or making them worse. By adjusting your diet, you can reduce your discomfort and sleep disruptions.
Foods to Avoid if You Have Acid Problems
There are several foods and food groups known to make acid issues worse. These foods cause your esophageal sphincter to relax which leads to stomach contents accidentally coming back into the throat rather than staying in your stomach.
Spicy foods and fatty foods tend to be the ones that cause the most symptoms. Examples of these foods include:*
✓ Fried Food
✓ Bloating
✓ Processed snacks like potato chips
✓ Bacon, sausage, and other fatty processed meats
✓ Certain cheeses
✓ Fatty milk products made with whole milk or cream
In addition to greasy, fatty foods, there are certain fruits and vegetables that have naturally high acid levels. Tomatoes are a common culprit for heartburn and this includes eating tomatoes raw, eating red sauces like marinara or pizza sauce, tomato soup, and even ketchup.*
Citrus fruits like grapefruit and oranges are high in acid too so it’s best to avoid or limit citrus if you’re suffering from acid problems.*
Chocolate and peppermint can also make acid issues worse.*
Don’t forget beverages – they also have to go through the digestive tract. In addition to alcohol, caffeine and carbonation are major causes for acid discomfort.
Caffeinated drinks like coffee, tea and sodas all make acid issues worse. And while the bubbles from carbonated drinks may soothe an upset stomach, all of that fizz expands in your stomach and can cause heartburn symptoms.*

Foods to Add to Your Diet to Reduce Acid symptoms

Fortunately, there are many food groups that help soothe heartburn.

Foods high in fiber help reduce overeating (a common cause of acid problems). So, fill your pantry with whole grains including oats, brown rice, and whole grain breads. Root vegetables like carrots, beets, and sweet potatoes are also fiber-rich.*

Green vegetables like kale, green beans, and asparagus will help increase your fiber too.* Fennel is another veggie that is low in acid and can soothe heartburn.*

While you want to avoid or reduce citrus fruits, choosing other fruits like apples, bananas, grapes, and pears are typically fine, unless your acid issues are severe.*

Melon fruits are also a safer bet when it comes to acid. Watermelon, cantaloupe, and honeydew are low in acid and high in water content – meaning it helps dilute the stomach acid and can help reduce heartburn symptoms.

Ginger has been used for centuries to help soothe acid-related stomach issues as it can help ease inflammation and keep your stomach contents moving down the digestive tract (rather than sitting in your stomach for too long).* You can make decaffeinated tea with ginger or make smoothies with freshly grated ginger root.

Like most things when it comes to diet, not everyone will have the same reactions to the same foods. It’s important to identify what triggers your acid-related symptoms and avoid these foods. You can do this by keeping a food diary for a few weeks and tracking your symptoms. If you notice you have symptoms when you eat certain foods then those are the foods that are more likely triggers for your acid-related symptoms.

Avoiding or reducing your intake of your specific triggers can have a big impact on reducing your acid-related symptoms.

The Acid/Stress Connection​

Have you ever noticed yourself grabbing a few extra Tums or an antacid during stressful times? Maybe you’re planning a huge event like a wedding or preparing for a large presentation – and suddenly you have crazy heartburn out of seemingly nowhere?
You’re not alone. Heartburn and stress go hand in hand. Several studies have shown the relationship between stress and an increase in acid-related symptoms.* It’s often difficult to know which happened first, the stress or acid discomfort, but it’s clear that each can make the other worse.
Stress can increase acid symptoms in a few ways. The important esophageal sphincter (the valve that keeps your stomach contents in your stomach) may not function properly during extreme stress. It can either become leaky, or it becomes too tight and prevents your food and other stomach contents from moving along to facilitate normal digestion.*
Dealing with stress may even increase how much acid your stomach secretes, causing an increase in symptoms.*
Several studies have also concluded that people who are under a lot of stress become more sensitive to acid symptoms. This means that even if two people have the same amount of stomach acid secretion and function of their esophageal sphincter, small changes will affect someone under stress more severely.*
This all highlights the importance of managing stress to help alleviate and even prevent acid related symptoms. But this can become its own issue, especially when people become anxious or stressed out in anticipation of heartburn – especially at night. This stress can interfere with sleep quality nearly as much as the acid itself, creating a vicious cycle around stress and heartburn.

Acid Problems and Sleep​

​
You may be noticing that your symptoms are worse in the evening after dinner and when you’re trying to go to sleep. Nighttime acid issues tend to be more severe than daytime symptoms and can be very distressing.
There are several reasons for this – with the most common reason being that you no longer have gravity helping you digest your food when you’re lying down. Hence, when you lie down, stomach acid and its contents are more likely to move back into the esophagus from the stomach, causing more acid-related symptoms to occur.*
You also don’t swallow as often when you’re asleep. Swallowing is an important first step to encouraging digestion and keeping food moving down your digestive tract.*
Along with decreased swallowing, you don’t make as much saliva while you’re sleeping. This is a good thing, otherwise you’d wake up with a mouth full of saliva – but saliva helps neutralize stomach acid so acid-related symptoms can increase during nighttime hours.*

Chronic disease rates are skyrocketing. Technology is encroaching on our children’s precious childhoods. And we’re too busy and stressed to sit down to dinner as a family.

Raising Free Range Kids is a 3-day virtual event starting tonight at 6pm EST that explores the many ways you can create that intentional childhood for your kids, even in the most simple ways.
I’ll be speaking alongside 20 other formidable parents and children’s health experts to adventure into these important parenting questions:
  • How do I prepare my body and home for a healthy pregnancy and birth?
  • What kinds of values do I want to pass on to my children?
  • What will I feed my children and serve for family dinners?
  • How can I infuse our day with magical moments?
  • What’s important to worry about, and what can we let go of?
  • How do I protect my children from toxins in the environment?
