Join Sayer Ji on CHD as the Senate Votes On RFK Jr.​

The nation is on the edge of its seat, counting down the days until Robert F. Kennedy is confirmed as Health and Human Services secretary.

But a limited few are not too excited about cleaning up the food supply, reducing chronic disease and empowering patients to take control over their own health. For updates on the ongoing process of RFK Jr.’s confirmation, watch this episode of “Good Morning CHD” on CHD.TV @ 10am EST!

The Great Betrayal: How Senators Sold Out Children’s Health to Big Pharma​

Maybe, after years of gaslighting generations of parents of vaccine-injured children—pretending that the skyrocketing rates of chronic disease, pediatric cancer, neurological disorders, and autism have nothing to do with the ever-expanding vaccine schedule—Senators will convince themselves that being voted out by the American people was just another coincidence—not the direct result of their willful, malignant ignorance on children’s health.

Warding Off Stroke Fights Dementia

By Dr. Mehmet Oz and Dr. Mike Roizen, MDs


From 1902 to 1912, shortstop Joe Tinker, second baseman Johnny Evers, and first baseman Frank Chance were an efficient double-play dream team, anchoring the infield while the Chicago Cubs won four National League pennants and two World Series championships.

Now medical science has discovered a new type of double play: If you work to strike out strokes, you also can knock out dementia.

Special: Worried About Forgetting Things? Try Dr. Blaylock's Brain Boosters

In 2000, Ontario, Canada, put a stroke prevention program into play. A new study shows that between 2002 and 2012, stroke rates for those aged over 80 in Ontario went down an amazing 38 percent.

The researchers also observed that there was a 15 percent decline in dementia rates in people over 80.

That suggests that the steps people took to lower their risk of stroke probably helped stave off some types of dementia.

Or, having a stroke puts you at higher risk of dementia — so fewer strokes means less dementia.

Either way, make your double play and get both stroke and dementia off your home plate:

  • Stick with a diet rich in produce, olive oil and nuts, whole grains, and lean proteins.
  • Eliminate inflammation-triggering added sugars and syrups, and artificially sweetened beverages and foods, which are also associated with increased risk of ischemic stroke and dementia.
  • Keep blood pressure at less than 120 over 80; high blood pressure damages your circulatory system. It's the No. 1 cause of strokes.

Hey Jimi,
A groundbreaking study from the NHS has found that 1 in 2 people will get cancer in their lifetime!
This means that either you or someone you know…
Will be facing this life-threatening condition at some point.
The problem is that so much of what we eat, drink and breathe in is filled with TOXINS
And poisons that are making us sicker and more vulnerable to cancer development.​

Worst of all…
How the medical system is operating nowadays…
Is aimed at just pumping you with one pill after the other… without actually addressing the ROOT cause.
In fact, the so-called “treatment solutions” that they’re giving…
Actually cause such horrible side effects…that cause you to end up treating symptom after symptom.
This is a vicious cycle that only drags your health down.
BUT…I can confidently say that after being in the space that I’ve been in for the past ten years….
I have seen what actually works in addressing and preventing the root causes of cancer.
I have used these protocols firsthand and I have been shocked by how EFFECTIVE they are.
For example, there’s this one study by the Cutaneous Lymphoma Foundation
That shows how this powerful natural therapy, which you can use in the comfort of your own home
Has been shown to reduce cancer proliferation by 60-90%!

“This therapy is an extremely effective treatment for cutaneous lymphoma (a type of cancer). It has been reported to have a 60-90% effectiveness rate.”


FAR too many people are in the dark about these types of natural healing protocols…
And it’s my mission to shine the light on what actually works in preventing and treating the root causes of cancer…
Plus exactly how you can use them as easily as possible.
So with that said…I’ve decided to announce that I’ll be hosting a LIVE session…
This Thursday, February 6th, 2025 at 4 PM ET…
Where I’ll be unpacking ALL the powerful protocols I’ve come to discover.
If you feel this is for YOU…go ahead and…

>>> Click HERE to find out more about these POWERFUL healing tools!

Here’s an EXCITING sneak peek into what I’ll be delving into:
  • How when this biophotonic therapy is applied, the cells swell and then burst, causing the cancer cell to die.
  • How this therapy can stimulate cell proliferation in wound healing, and how it can help mitigate the side effects of conventional cancer treatments.
  • How a biophotonic therapy like this stimulates mitochondria, leading to increased production of ATP, which enhances cellular energy and can improve the function and repair of cells.
  • Best practices for integrating this biophotonic therapy into your health regimen.
  • And. SO. Much. More!

THIS is going to be empowerment galore!

Step into a future illuminated with hope and healing…
The time for living in the shadows of chronic disease is OVER…
Now’s the time for you to be the BEST version of yourself because you deserve it…
True health and vitality come when you’re well-informed!
So be sure to join the Disease Reversal Webinar…
Mark your calendar for Thursday, February 6th, 2025 at 4 PM ET
And let's dive into the world of health and healing together!
>>> Register for the Disease Reversal Webinar!
To your health,​

Shocking Discovery: Human Brain Contains 7 Grams of Microplastics, 50% More Than Previous Estimates​

Picture a sugar packet - that's roughly how much microplastic is now accumulating in the average human brain, according to groundbreaking new research from the University of New Mexico. In a disturbing revelation published in Nature Medicine, scientists have documented a 50% increase in brain microplastic concentrations over just eight years, with the average human brain now harboring approximately 7 grams of microscopic plastic particles. To put this in perspective, that's about the weight of seven paper clips worth of plastic fragments dispersed throughout our neural tissue.

TAKE ACTION

Fake Meat Linked to Depression Among Vegetarians​

By Hatty Willmoth, Newsweek:
“Eating ultra-processed plant-based alternatives to meat, such as vegetarian burgers, sausages and nuggets, is linked with a higher risk of depression, a study has found.
Health scientists at the U.K.’s University of Surrey analyzed the diets of more than 3,300 vegetarians—including fish eaters but not meat eaters—and samples of their blood. They found that vegetarians who ate ultra-processed plant-based meat alternatives were 42 percent more likely to have depression, compared with vegetarians who stuck to whole food proteins, such as chickpeas, eggs, beans, lentils and quinoa.
Ultra-processed food has been linked with a number of negative health outcomes, such as obesity, diabetes, inflammation, heart disease, skin conditions and cancer. As a category of food, it is the subject of some debate, but it is generally defined as foods that are industrially manufactured, using processing techniques and chemical ingredients that are usually unavailable to individuals cooking at home.
Some experts say ultra-processed food has negative health effects because most of it is junk food, with more salt, sugar and saturated fat than less processed food. However, the University of Surrey scientists found that vegetarians who ate more ultra-processed proteins did not eat significantly more salt, sugar or saturated fat than the other group.”

The Lost Art of Self-Reliant Living​

Kris Bordessa writes for Attainable Sustainable:
“I’m Kris Bordessa, a long-time gardener, certified Master Food Preserver, and award-winning book author. I thrive on trying new things (but admit I don’t always finish them). I love good food, but rarely cook fancy. My mud room is actually muddy, I do most of my flower arranging in the garden, and the windows I’m most likely to wash are those on my greenhouse. I am a hot mess with strong opinions about our food system, plastic waste, and GMOs. If you’re ready to have some fun and learn some new skills, pull up a chair. I’ll put on a pot of chili! Vintage skills like food preservation, soap making, gardening, and even simple home cooking are seeing a resurgence as a new generation seeks the comfort of old-fashioned handmade living.
If you’re striving to add a bit of simplicity and self-reliance to your life, join me in embracing old-fashioned simple living for the modern era.”

APPETITE FOR A CHANGE

Lawsuit Alleges Addictive Ultra-Processed Foods Caused Youth’s Illnesses​

Analysis by Dr. Joseph Mercola:
“STORY-AT-A-GLANCE
* A lawsuit alleges that ultra-processed foods (UPFs), engineered to be addictive like cigarettes, caused a teenager to develop serious health problems like fatty liver disease and Type 2 diabetes
* UPFs are defined as “industrially produced edible substances” that lack essential nutrients and are loaded with refined ingredients, added sugars and unhealthy fats like linoleic acid
* These foods disrupt metabolism, gut health and cellular function, increasing the risk of obesity, diabetes, heart disease and chronic inflammation
* The lawsuit claims that Big Food took a page from Big Tobacco’s playbook, using similar tactics to engineer addiction and aggressively market UPFs to children
* Protect your health by avoiding ultra processed foods, learning to read food labels, cooking more often, making healthier food swaps and practicing mindful eating”

COMING CLEAN

Clean Fragrance: Gift Options for Valentine’s Day​

Environmental Working Group reports:
“The fragrance market is booming as a result of smellmaxing – teens’ rapidly growing interest in designer scents. Teenage boys’ spending on fragrance rose 26 percent between early 2023 and early 2024. Interest among twenty somethings and men is also rising.
But there’s a downside. The ingredients in a cologne, aftershave and other scents are usually a mystery. Potentially harmful ingredients frequently find their way into the scent – or ‘juice,’ as it’s known in the industry. But too often, there’s no way for the shopper to know what they’re spraying on themselves.
Fragrance formulas are typically a closely held company secret. A mixture of up to 3,500 chemicals might lurk in the tiniest of bottles.
Exposure to these undisclosed substances can lead to a range of health problems. Some of the chemicals can disrupt the hormone system, or cause allergic reactions in kids and adults. Some are phthalates, which can harm the reproductive system. Another fragrance chemical, styrene, is linked to cancer.”

NEW FILM

Lyrical “Seeds” Is a Stunning Portrait of Black Generational Farmers​

By Lucy Spicer, Sundance:
“Brittany Shyne’s Seeds starts with a funeral.
But even as the individuals onscreen shuffle out of the wake and into their cars, we’re reminded that life begins anew — from inside a car, we see an elderly woman slowly fishing candy out of her purse for her energetic grandchild.
Premiering in the 2025 Sundance Film Festival’s U.S. Documentary Competition, Shyne’s feature directorial debut recognizes that some films don’t benefit from a linear format. ‘I knew my film was always very cyclical,’ says Shyne at Seeds’ post-premiere Q&A on January 25 at The Ray Theatre in Park City, Utah. ‘I knew that this community was on the fringes, and all these people were at a certain point in age. And I think it just makes sense to go back in time with these participants.’ The community that Shyne — who also acted as the documentary’s cinematographer — chose to center for this project comprises Black generational farmers in the American South. In 1910, Black farmers owned 16 million acres in the U.S., but today that number is much smaller. The farmers Shyne followed are still determined to pass their legacy on to younger generations. ‘I just thought it was important to understand things wither away, but things grow again,’ explains Shyne.
Supported by Sundance Institute’s Documentary Film Program, Seeds invites us to observe three farms — two in Georgia and one in Mississippi — in a project that was nine years in the making.”

MISLEADING MARKETING

Fluoride Toothpastes, Mouthwash Marketed to Kids in Dangerous Ways​

Douglas Main reports for The New Lede:
“Companies making fluoride-containing toothpastes and mouthrinses are improperly marketing their products as harmless and pleasant-tasting to very young children despite scientific research showing ingestion of the products could be dangerous to their health, according to allegations in a group of proposed class action lawsuits filed earlier this month.
There is a scientific consensus that fluoride primarily acts topically and reduces tooth decay when used properly in toothpaste, but ingestion of concentrated fluoride products can be dangerous across the board — especially for young children.
Many fluoride products lack easy-to-read warning labels and are flavored to taste like fruit or candy, and bear bright colors, cartoon characters, and illustrations of misleadingly large quantities of toothpastes on toothbrushes, according to the lawsuits, which bear many similar claims.”

MILLIONS AGAINST MONSANTO

February 7: Get the Military-Pharmaceutical-Industrial Complex Out of Food & Farming​

The same companies that make toxic pesticides and genetically-engineered Frankenfoods make chemical and biological weapons–and have colonial interests that involve them in U.S. war-making. These are also the companies peddling the pharmaceuticals that, by some estimates, are the leading cause of death in the U.S.
The secret military history of Bayer and Monsanto goes back to World War I when an invention that would win the Nobel Prize for its use in agriculture was tested on the battlefield, killing thousands with poison gas. During the Holocaust, Bayer ran medical research laboratories and massive factories out of the concentration camps where its Zyklon B was used in the gas chambers. Monsanto was instrumental in developing the bombs that needlessly murdered hundreds of thousands of people in Japan and remained a nuclear weapons contractor until its plants became superfund sites in the 1990s. Today, Bayer and Monsanto, which merged in 2018, are the monopoly Pentagon supplier of the white phosphorus weapons Israel is using in Gaza and Lebanon.
Alexis Baden-Mayer, political director of Organic Consumers Association, is giving a talk on this subject at the Dorothy Day Catholic Worker House in Washington, DC, on Friday, February 7 at 7:30 pm. You’re welcome to join in person if you’re in town. Otherwise, please watch online on OCA’s Rokfin or Rumble channels.

Hormones, Heavy Metals, and Stealth Infections
Nafysa Parpia, ND​
Hormonal changes are often blamed for the sudden onset of mysterious symptoms – from brain fog and fatigue to unexplained aches and pains. What your doctor might be missing are two often overlooked factors that may be playing a significant role: heavy metal exposure and stealth infections.

In our latest article, Dr. Nafysa Parpia shares how these elements interact with hormonal changes and how women can better navigate this transition.​

Vagus Nerve Activation​
The vagus nerve is the longest and most complex cranial nerve in your body that’s made up of thousands of sensory fibers.

It travels between your brain and almost every organ in your body and allows for vital back-and-forth communication.

It’s responsible for the regulation of internal organ function and tells the brain what’s happening in your vital organs, including your stomach, intestines, lungs, heart, spleen, liver, and kidneys.

If the vagus nerve isn’t functioning as it should, your body’s rest, cellular regeneration, and healing are compromised. At this point, you would start to experience health issues you can’t shake regardless of what you try.

Simply strengthening and stimulating this nerve is much like pushing a reset button.

Most of our patients need some at-home tools to stimulate the vagus nerve as well as relax and get them in the parasympathetic state. We have found this essential oil blend is just really a wonderful tool to have in your toolkit.

Some Quick Information about the Sympathetic vs. Parasympathetic state:

Your Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) runs all of the involuntary mechanisms in your body that are not under your conscious control, such as your heart rate, blood pressure, digestion, respiration, cellular activity, and even body temperature. The two branches of your ANS include the Parasympathetic branch, known as the “Rest, Digest and Heal” state, and the Sympathetic “Fight, Flight or Freeze” state.

These two branches operate with a push-pull dynamic and activate very different physical and mental states of being. For example, your Sympathetic branch makes energy available for muscles to mobilize, fight or flee. Your Sympathetic state speeds up your heart while your Parasympathetic state slows it down.

Parasympathetic turns on your digestion, but when you feel anxiety, the sympathetic branch kicks in and turns off digestion.

There is a constant calibration between the sympathetic and the parasympathetic systems with one or the other playing a more active role at any given time.

And this constant state of balance between our sympathetic and parasympathetic systems is facilitated by your vagus nerve.

The sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems are always operational, but there is a balance between them.

As we mentioned, incorporating at-home tools to support this important system is key. Vibrant Blue Oils Parasympathetic Blend contains a very specific ratio of Clove oil, which is highly stimulatory, and Lime oil, which has super small molecules, in a base of fractionated coconut oil.

The combination of these two oils creates a blend that is extremely stimulatory, fat-soluble, and very easily accessible through the skin and olfactory channels. >> Learn more

Dr. Crandall: New Guidelines for Preventing Stroke

By Carly Mayberry

For the very first time in a decade, both the American Heart Association and the American Stroke Association have updated their stroke prevention guidelines.

In particular, the American Stroke Association's new primary prevention guidelines urge healthcare professionals to screen people for stroke risk factors, including high blood pressure, elevated cholesterol, high blood sugar, and obesity.

Editor’s Note: 5 Warning Signs You’re About to Have a Stroke

Until now, stroke patients would often be treated at a local hospital. But with the development of stroke centers, patients can be transferred to these facilities and treated with clot-busting drugs or an intervention similar to what's used for heart attack victims.

That's according to world-renowned cardiologist Dr. Chauncey Crandall, director of preventive medicine at the Palm Beach Cardiovascular Clinic in Florida. He is also the editor of the monthly newsletter Dr. Crandall's Heart Health Report and author of multiple books, including "The Simple Heart Cure: The 90-Day Program to Stop and Reverse Heart Disease."

Special: Dr. Crandall Saved His Own Heart With This

"We can save the brain from having damage, and the patient can leave that hospital often without any issues from that stroke," Crandall tells Newsmax's "Newsline."

He says that the medical establishment has found that strokes can now be treated much like heart attacks.

In terms of risk factors for stroke, he notes the largest of those is underlying untreated hypertension. Others include diabetes, obesity, and inactivity.

"These are all risk factors that can be treated to prevent strokes," Crandall says. "We do not have to die from a stroke or have issues with the stroke. We can have victory if we follow through with the correct treatment protocol."

He also offers a stroke kit, which is a complete guide to understanding, preventing, and then acting against strokes, arming individuals with the knowledge to take control of their own health.

Kristina here, CEO of the Institute for the Psychology of Eating. I hope this finds you well!



Recently, I had an interesting experience on social media, after coming across a headline from NPR warning about a potential asteroid hitting Earth in 2032. (Scientists estimate there’s just a 1% chance of it hitting, so nothing to worry too much about.)



What was surprising for me was to read a couple hundred of the over 3,000 comments posted in response to the headline, the vast majority sharing sentiments like, “Can’t come soon enough,” or “Good riddance, people deserve this fate,” or “We won’t be here by then.”



As I scrolled through the comments, I looked for a single neutral comment – or any comment that deviated from the rather bleak and hopeless sentiment so many people shared.



I couldn’t find a single one.



So I decided to contribute a comment of my own, if for no other reason than to be a small voice of positive dissension in a sea of apparent collective despair. I wrote about how much we have to be thankful for in life, no matter who our political leaders are, or what is going on in the world. And how what’s so very needed at this time is noticing all the good in others and in this world, and all the beauty and wonder constantly available to us.



I was sadly not surprised to receive a few mocking and ridiculing responses to my comments. All of this, along with the backdrop of an increasing number of personal friends and colleagues I’ve noticed lamenting the world’s fate – even to the point of damning us to it – has had me in deep reflection.



I wondered, just when had the world become so sad and cynical?



And then I remembered that it has long been this way, this is nothing new. But it does seem that the intensity of it all, and our anxieties around the state of the world, are growing.



But this conversation with you today is not so much about cataloging the “when’s” and “how’s” of the way things are. Rather, it’s to explore, for a moment, what we sacrifice when we buy into the world’s cynicism, and how to begin forging a healthier and more positive emotional path for ourselves.
