A new independent lab test, commissioned by the holistic food scanning app Olive, has found that several popular baby food products contain lead levels up to 257% higher than California's Prop 65 daily limit. This is the largest heavy metal screening of baby food to date, analyzing close to 300 products from major brands. Lead is a known neurotoxin, and there is no safe level of exposure, particularly for children. Even small amounts can permanently impact brain development, lower IQ, and increase risks for learning disabilities, attention issues, and behavioral problems. While California’s Prop 65 law sets daily maximum intake limits, federal agencies like the FDA have still not established enforceable limits for heavy metals in most baby foods. This regulatory gap allows brands to continue selling contaminated products with no accountability.

3 Ancient Medicines That Already Live In Your Home

Every week, we receive emails from folks who are on the hunt for that one exotic herb that will solve all their problems. Maybe it can only be found in the mountains of Mongolia... or along the shores of the Caspian Sea.
Our first question is always the same. "Have you explored the powerful herbal remedies that are available in your neck of the woods yet?"
More often than not, the answer is no.
We tend to forget about the effective natural medicines that can be found around your home -- many disguised as spices...
So... today I'm going to focus on three remedies that you may already have!
3 Ancient Medicines That Already Live In Your Home:
Garlic - Allium sativum
I'd like to start with Allium sativum, or garlic - not only out of respect for my Italian roots, but because it is quite possibly the most potently practical medicinal herb on the planet. We all know this strong-charactered little bulb for its delicious flavor and aroma, but I'm often baffled by how few people use it medicinally for its plethora of healing applications...

↓ WHAT TO EXPECT TODAY, THE FINAL EPISODE, DAY 7 ↓

When you head to Day 7, Jimi, please SHARE a comment at the bottom of the page regarding how you feel about this summit, and....

Click here to access the most important Day 7 right now if you are the daring type who wants to just jump right in! :)

Otherwise...

Right before today's first interview, I am going to reveal 10 popular "health" foods that are NOT actually healthy.

And then...

--> Our first interview today is with the legendary John Mackey, the visionary co-founder of Whole Foods and its CEO for 44 years before his retirement in 2022. John is one of the world’s most influential advocates for organic and healthier foods and has been key to transforming the American diet for the better.

Among the other little-known and proven most effective steps for you to live long and well that he will share, John will reveal...

* The fascinating and truly inspiring story of how a junk-food-loving 22-year-old started “a little hippie store,” which went on to become the first-ever Whole Foods.

* What most adults don’t feel they deserve & how this deeply ingrained belief derails your health.

* How "old Bob" makes you miserable & how to break his hold on you.

* The real golden keys to live long and live well... and more.

--> Our second interview today is with Dr. David Rabin, the world-renowned psychiatrist MD, neuroscientist PhD, and Executive Director of The Board of Medicine.

He is renowned for advances in combating chronic stress & improving brain / mental health.

And TRULY, out of hundreds of interviews I have done over the years, this one will easily qualify as one of the most fascinating, mind-blowing, and helpful ever.

Dr. Rabin will reveal:

* The largely FORBIDDEN top way to greatly boost your longevity -- very anti-inflammatory, anti-aging, and self-healing (though it is NOT taboo in Italy & Latin America).

* 2 amazing questions that will inevitably change your health & life.

* How to disarm your deepest fears about your health (invaluable)... and more.

--> Then, our third and final interview of the summit is with another GENIUS MD, Dr. Chidi Ngwaba. He is the globally acclaimed Lifestyle Medicine MD featured in Joaquin Phoenix's hit film, The End of Medicine, and is renowned for reversing chronic diseases such as heart disease, autoimmune, cancer & diabetes through groundbreaking non-drug approaches.

And for the sake of your health and longevity, please DO NOT MISS THIS VERY IMPORTANT & FINAL INTERVIEW!

Dr. Ngwaba will reveal:

* The #1 most overlooked top cause of high blood pressure, heart disease, cancer, and immune issues (ignore this and it simply will trap you in declining health).

* What science shows comes closest to a true "Fountain of Youth".

* Little-known essential to protect your eyesight.

* Why you must be more BORING for your longevity... and more!

Again, prepare to be especially WOWED with this final, deeply informative and inspiring interview with Dr. Ngwaba today.

--> AND THEN, Jimi, TO CONCLUDE DAY 7 AND THIS INCREDIBLE SUMMIT TODAY...

Be sure to stay tuned right after my interview with Dr. Chidi Ngwaba for my own final Little-Known and MOST Life-Changing Health Tip for you.

As you know by now, I have shared 4 of these life-extending tips each day of the summit, one before and after every interview, and it has all been counting down to this one.

Befitting of a grand finale to what has been a legendary event, the Little-Known and MOST Life-Changing Health Tip I share today to end the summit will be the most important and helpful of them all.

(By the way, to end the entire summit, I will also share one of the BEST DAD JOKES of them all --- you won't want to miss this one ;-) )

'Defining Moment in Human History': U.S. Rejects WHO's International Health Regulation Amendments​

Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said today the U.S. would not agree to sign over authority in health emergencies "to an unelected international organization that could order lockdowns, travel restrictions or any other measures that it sees fit." The amendments take effect for all signatories July 19.

Turmeric Superior to Chemical Mouthwash In Improving Oral Health​

Since ancient times, turmeric has been used for remedying oral ailments, among other therapeutic applications too numerous to count. Consider that plants like turmeric were first eaten for thousands of years before our species ever devised the modern day oddity of encapsulated or tableted extracts that could be swallowed without significant oral contact. It is only logical, therefore, that after long stretches of biological time, taking the root orally as either food, spice or medicine, it would agree with and have benefit for that part of our anatomy and its unique physiology.

Breastfed Babies Have Healthier Blood Pressure

By Chauncey Crandall, M.D.

Toddlers who were breastfed for even a few days have lower blood pressure than those who always got a bottle, research finds.

And lower blood pressure at an early age may lead to healthier heart and blood vessels in adulthood, researchers said.

Special: Heart Surgeon's Secret to Healthy Blood Pressure

"Infants who received even a relatively small amount of their mother's early breast milk, also known as colostrum, had lower blood pressure at 3 years of age, regardless of how long they were breastfed or when they received other complementary foods," said lead author Dr. Kozeta Miliku, a postdoctoral fellow at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.

Colostrum, which is present in breast milk but not infant formula, is loaded with immune, growth, and tissue repair properties that benefit baby. Other research has linked breastfeeding with lower heart disease risk in adulthood, but how much breastfeeding was needed to gain that benefit was unclear.

ZOOM 7-30-25 Presentation "Change Your Diet Change Your Life" A deep dive into what's healthy and what's not.

Jimi,​

Scientists believe that the average person hosts about 500 toxic chemicals in his/her body, mostly within their fat tissues. These toxins may lead to serious health conditions such as infertility, liver damage, diabetes, brain damage, cancer, or death.
Ridding yourself of toxins through a healthy anti-inflammatory whole foods detox diet, combined with the right nutrients can help you:
  1. Dramatically increase your energy
  2. Reduce chronic achy pain
  3. Boost mental clarity
  4. Lose weight (if needed)
  5. Eliminate bloating, gas and other GI symptoms
  6. Remove excess water retention (swollen hands, ankles and feet)
  7. Have glowing, healthy skin, nails and hair

What About Fat
Fat gives us energy, produces necessary hormones, insulates our bodies from cold, and makes cellular membranes. Fat provides the fuel for muscles, including those in vital organs like the heart.

Unfortunately, fats have really gotten a bad reputation in our culture. Low-fat and low-calorie diets have been all the rage for at least a couple of decades.

Clever marketing specialists promise weight loss and improved health, but this ploy has contributed to things like fibromyalgia, heart disease, chronic fatigue, and type 2 diabetes.

Fat is a part of all natural and healthy foods. It is an essential piece of the puzzle that is our body and plays an important role in our health. We absolutely cannot live without fat, which provides twice the amount of energy of carbs and 70% of energy needed to keep the body warm.

Furthermore, fats make up about 70% of the brain and insulate the cells to allow neurotransmitters to communicate.
Fats and cholesterol make up every cell in our body. The cholesterol keeps cell membranes permeable, which then allows the good nutrients in and toxins out.

More than 8% of the brain’s solid matter is cholesterol, which is essential for cognitive and brain functioning. It normalizes the neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine.

You need fat. But it needs to be healthy fat.

Dr. Murphree will cover -
Which fats are good which are bad
Foods that increase inflammation and foods that reduce inflammation
Sugar alternatives
Essential Fatty Acids the good, the bad
Protein how much do you really need
Best diet for losing weight
Best diet for gaining weight
Which fruits and vegetables you should avoid
and much, much more....​

Fasting and cancer?

mail








“You’re not going to believe it, but I went to school with this guy!”

That’s what my friend Amy said after her oncologist recommend she read the book “Eat Stop Eat”

Amy has breast cancer. Luckily, she caught it early.

It was during one of her first meetings that her oncologist suggested she try intermittent fasting.

But not just any type of Intermittent Fasting, but Eat Stop Eat.

And for a number of very good reasons…

Firstly, researchers at Cedars-sinai are currently exploring Fasting as a ‘next step in cancer treatment’, which is great news, but also because fasting may improve the effectiveness of chemotherapy and reduce its side effects.

A welcome change for anyone who has ever experienced the nasty side effects of chemo.

In fact, it has been found that Short-Term Fasting can improve overall quality of life during chemotherapy

And intermittent fasting can even be helpful for people in cancer remittance.

Specifically, fasting fewer than 13 hours per night was associated with a 36% higher hazard for breast cancer recurrence compared with fasting 13 or more.

Now fasting isn’t the silver bullet for cancer, but it IS definitely something everyone should look into.

And, thanks to Amy, we were able to get a hold of her friend from university to work out an amazing deal for you…

You can get his book Eat Stop Eat for free, just pay the shipping cost and it’ll be sent right to your door.

You can get Amy’s deal here —> Eat Stop Eat for Free

[update] mega dose b vitamins may harm thyroid
For years, mega-dose B-complexes were the go-to for thyroid support. People took them hoping for more energy, better metabolism, and an “insurance policy” against nutrient gaps.

But too much can backfire.

  • Niacin can cause skin flushing, raise liver enzymes, and even blur vision (niacin maculopathy). It may also suppress thyroid hormone production.
  • Riboflavin can crowd out other B vitamins and skew lab markers, making it harder to know what’s really going on.
  • Thiamine, in large doses, has been linked to irritability, fatigue, and reduced magnesium absorption—something many thyroid patients already struggle with.
But I’ve had countless times where people got better from one of my simplest suggestions: quit megadose B vitamins.

These risks are exactly why I formulated Thyroid Daily with targeted doses of only what your thyroid actually needs—no excess, no guesswork. One capsule, once daily.

👉 I break it all down in this new post: The 11 Best Vitamins for Thyroid Issues

To your best health,

The "forgotten" herb that remembers everything

mail

Hi,​
Do any of these sound familiar…

You walk into a room and completely forget why you went there.

You've noticed it's getting harder to focus during those long work meetings, or during conversations.

You find yourself reaching for your phone to remember something you used to know by heart.

Don’t worry, your brain isn't broken. It's just that modern life is incredibly demanding on our mental faculties.

But what if I told you there's a humble little herb that's been quietly helping people with their memory and focus for over 3,000 years?

It’s an unassuming plant that grows in the wetlands of India and has been treasured by Ayurvedic healers for millennia.

Here's what's really exciting: modern science is finally catching up to what ancient wisdom has known all along. Researchers are now studying this ingredient and discovering some pretty remarkable things about how it supports brain health.

We're talking about benefits for memory, focus, mood, and even protection against cognitive decline.

Here's where it gets really interesting – there's something unique about this herb that sets it apart from other brain-supporting botanicals.

Discover more about …

The "forgotten" herb that remembers everything

Are Mammograms the Only Option?
We will say this over and over again—You Have Options! You do NOT have to go with the first doctor, first test, and first treatment protocol. Take your time to assess, listen to your inner wisdom, research, ask questions, and find your community.

This is one of the reasons why we interviewed Dr. Lourie on the podcast, as she offers practical and emotional guidance on how to approach biopsies, advocate for yourself within the conventional medical system, and embrace a healing mindset that honors the whole person.​
​
We also wrote a blog this week on how mammograms are not your only option. Listen, read, learn, and then take actions that best serve your healing journey.

Do you really have to get a mammogram?​
We know—this question can feel bold (even scary) to ask.

But as part of your healing journey, you deserve to explore ALL the options available to you.

Mammograms have been the standard for decades, yet research shows there are concerns:​
​
​
  • False positives and unnecessary procedures
  • Over-diagnosis and over-treatment
  • Radiation exposure and painful compression
  • Tumors often found years after they start developing
  • Limited accuracy for women with dense breasts
The good news? There are innovative, non-invasive tests available today that can help detect cancer early—without harm.

In our latest blog, we break down the most promising breast screening tools, including the Galleri® Test, SonoCiné, Onconomics Plus RGCC, Thermography, Signatera™, and PerfeQTion Imaging.

At Breast Cancer Conqueror®, our mission is to help YOU make empowered, educated decisions for your health.​

You could be getting cancer from your car seat!
​
We already know that we live in a toxic world, but it SHOCKED me to learn that…

Nearly ALL modern cars contain cancer-causing flame retardants in their seat foam and interiors…

Raising concerns about potential health risks.
​
mail
I mean, how do we avoid this? We all drive nearly every day!

But there are POWERFUL natural protocols…

Like Red Light Therapy (RLT), as much as we can… we could avoid getting sick from environmental toxins such as those in our cars.

Search has shown just how effective red light can be:

  • When near-infrared light is applied to cancer cells, they swell and then BURST, causing the cancer cell to die.
  • RLT can stimulate cell proliferation in wound healing, and it can help mitigate the side effects of conventional cancer treatments.
  • RLT stimulates your mitochondria, leading to increased production of ATP, which enhances cellular energy and can improve the function and repair of cells.

I honestly believe that RLT is one of THE most powerful tools available today.

I’ve seen the difference it’s made for so many in our community members…

  • Increased energy
  • Easing chronic pain
  • Sleeping deeper
  • And simply feeling more like themselves again.

Jimi, I want you to experience these benefits yourself.

That's why I've created something special for you...

>>> Click HERE to download your F.REE copy of my guide - Disease Reversal: Red Light Therapy and its Healing Powers

In this comprehensive guide, you'll discover:
  • The science behind how red light therapy fights cancer cells and detoxifies your body
  • Step-by-step protocols for using RLT to combat environmental toxins
  • Real stories from people who've transformed their health with this powerful therapy
  • How to properly use RLT devices for maximum benefit
  • And SO. Much. More!

Knowledge is power, especially when it comes to protecting yourself in today's toxic world.

Arm yourself with this information, and you'll have the tools to shield your body from the invisible threats surrounding us every day.

ZOOM Tonight Presentation "Change Your Diet Change Your Life" A deep dive into what's healthy and what's not.

How to reduce inflammation and decrease your risk for heart disease, stroke, diabetes, chronic pain, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, certain cancers, and arthritis.
We’ve all heard the phrase, “you are what you eat.” And guess what, it is true. Unfortunately, many of us have habitually eaten foods that have caused our cells to become filled with unhealthy chemicals known as eicosanoids. Inflammatory eicosanoids are associated with several common diseases, including fibromyalgia, heart disease, stroke, diabetes, arthritis, cancer, and chronic pain.

All of these health problems have been linked to poor diet choices. These eicosanoid compounds come from arachidonic acid (AA), found in polyunsaturated fats (vegetable oils-safflower, peanut oil, and canola oil).
Essential Fatty Acids (EFA)
Polyunsaturated fats are are further broken down into essential fatty acids (EFA). There are two groups of EFAs, Omega 6 and Omega 3. Both of these fatty acids are essential for optimal health.
Omega 3 rich foods, green leafy vegetables, flax seeds, and cold water fish, boost natural anti-inflammatory hormones. Omega 3 foods reduce inflammation and disease processes.
Omega 6 rich foods, whole grains, seeds, seed oils, and corn, are healthy in moderation. However, excess consumption of these foods, leads to excess production of arachidonic acid (AA) and eicosanoids.
AA is derived from the Omega 6 essential fatty acid foods (grains, flour, seeds, seed oils, corn, and grain-fed livestock), excess sugar, and trans-fatty acids. AA and eicosanoids create chain reactions that produce inflammation.

Research shows that inflammation is the driving cause of many diseases including heart attack, asthma, stroke, chronic pain, arthritis, ulcerative colitis, menstrual pain, and recurrent headaches.

Therefore, reducing chronic inflammation is the key to preventing and eliminating these illnesses.

But meditation doesn’t even burn calories… does it?
Hi Jimi,
You may be surprised to learn that meditation is a great weight loss technique.
CLICK HERE to register for a Meditation for Weight Loss Challenge (free). >>
Stress hormones are often the real culprits in weight gain, causing junk food cravings and blocking your body’s ability to burn fat.
Also, the weight gained from stress is considered to be the most dangerous type of weight and is associated with heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and cancer. So, reducing stress is crucial for sustainable health and weight loss.
Weight loss expert Jon Gabriel lost 220 pounds with the help of meditation over 16 years ago.

🍎 Why dementia wards are ditching pills for playlists

NEUROLOGICAL ADVANCES​

​

Music vs medicine: Why dementia wards are trading pills for piano keys​

​
mail
What if the key to calming distressed dementia patients wasn't found in a pill bottle, but in a simple melody?

A revolutionary NHS study is turning this beautiful possibility into reality. Researchers placed music therapists directly on dementia wards for four weeks, working with 28 patients who were experiencing severe distress. Instead of reaching for medications, staff learned to reach for instruments, personalized playlists, and the healing power of song.

The transformation was remarkable. Patients became calmer, their quality of life improved, and disruptive behaviors decreased—all without a single adverse effect. Most remarkably, this offered a more cost-effective, compassionate alternative to psychotropic medications for managing severe distress.

The best part? You can try this at home. Playing your loved one's favorite songs, singing together, or simply having music on during difficult moments can offer the same calming benefits. In an age of high-tech solutions, sometimes the most revolutionary treatment is also the most beautifully simple.​

THE GOODNESS GUIDE​

​

What does it really mean to​

"take a deep breath"?​

​
mail
When we’re stressed, we often hear someone say, “Just take a deep breath.”

But what does that actually mean?

True deep breathing isn’t just about inhaling more air. When done intentionally, it can calm your nerves, sharpen your focus, help you sleep, and even support digestion. It’s one of the simplest ways to interrupt stress right in the moment.
Here are 4 breathing techniques to help you do it right:

👉 1. Diaphragmatic Breathing (a.k.a. Belly Breathing)

This teaches you to breathe deeply from your belly—not your chest—which activates your body’s natural relaxation response.

How to do it:
  • Sit or lie comfortably.
  • Place one hand on your belly, one on your chest.
  • Inhale slowly through your nose, letting your belly rise.
  • Exhale through your mouth and feel your belly fall.
  • Do 5-10 breaths, a few times a day.
Did you know?
Studies show this style of breathing can help ease digestive issues like GERD and IBS.

👉 2. Box Breathing (4-4-4-4)

This method adds rhythm and structure to your breath, making it easier to stay calm and focused under pressure.

How to do it:
  • Inhale for 4 seconds.
  • Hold your breath for 4 seconds.
  • Exhale for 4 seconds.
  • Hold again for 4 seconds.
  • Repeat for 4 to 6 rounds.
Did you know?
Box breathing is used by US Navy Seals, pro athletes, and first responders to stay composed in high-stress situations.

👉 3. Pursed-Lip Breathing

This one slows your exhale, making each breath more effective and calming.

How to do it:
  • Inhale through your nose for about 2 seconds.
  • Purse your lips like you’re blowing out a candle.
  • Exhale slowly for 4 seconds.
  • Try this during moments of tension or if you're feeling short of breath.
Did you know?
Pursed-lip breathing is often used to improve airflow and reduce shortness of breath in people with COPD and other lung conditions.

👉 4. Resonant Breathing (a.k.a. Coherent Breathing)

This involves slowing your breath to about 5 to 6 breaths per minute, which has been shown to balance your nervous system and promote relaxation.

How to do it:
  • Inhale slowly through your nose for 5 seconds.
  • Exhale gently through your nose for 5 seconds.
  • Continue for 1-2 minutes, building up to 5-10 minutes over time.
Did you know?
Resonant breathing is linked to improvements in heart rate variability, a key marker of how well your body handles stress.

A Calmer Day Could Be One Breath Away

Whether you're navigating a busy, stressful day or winding down for bed, taking a true deep breath can change how you feel—fast.

What 70% of adults have…
mail
I reviewed a new patient’s spinal x-rays this week.

And what I saw was more common—and more concerning—than most people realize.

No broken bones.

No tumor.

But something seen in nearly 7 out of 10 adults.

It’s called Adult Spinal Deformity.

Also known as ASD.

And no, it’s not “just” a stiff back or slight hunch.

It’s a structural shift that changes how your entire body functions.

Right down to how you breathe.

How your organs work.

Even how long you can stand or walk without pain.

A study published in the European Spine Journal compared ASD to other serious chronic conditions:

Heart failure.

Diabetes.

Lung disease.

Rheumatoid arthritis.

And guess what ranked WORSE for limiting your physical function?

You guessed it—spinal deformity.

Here’s what qualifies as ASD (you only need one):

❌ Head sits more than two inches in front of your hips

❌ Spine curves sideways more than 20 degrees

❌ Low back has flattened and pelvis tilts backward

❌ Mid-back curves forward more than 60 degrees

These aren’t just postural quirks.

They’re mechanical breakdowns that slowly take away your freedom.

And the most dangerous part?

Most people have no idea it’s happening.

Even worse, most doctors don’t know what to do about it.

But you don’t have to stay in the dark.

That’s why I’m hosting the MasterSpine webinar next week.

If you registered already, awesome… can’t wait to see you there.

If not, there are two live sessions you can choose from:

Wednesday, August 6 at 4pm ET

or

Thursday, August 7 at 10am ET

Can’t make it live?

No problem—register here anyway and I’ll send the replay.

You don’t need a perfect spine.

Just one that supports you, not slows you down.

And as always, Be Your Own Guarantee for your health and life.

Dr. Ryan

P.S. Most adults already have signs of ASD and don’t know it.

Let’s change that.

Hey there Jimi,

In recent years, scientists have come to understand that there’s a crucial link between telomeres and aging.

Telomeres are the protective caps at the ends of every chromosome in the human body.

As one study explained, “Telomere length shortens with age. Progressive shortening of telomeres leads to senescence, apoptosis, or oncogenic transformation of somatic cells, affecting the health and lifespan of an individual. Shorter telomeres have been associated with increased incidence of diseases and poor survival.”

Research has shown that certain things can affect the rate at which telomeres shorten. For example, doing more exercise, eating better, managing stress, and getting enough sleep can slow telomere shortening. By doing so, you can effectively extend your lifespan and combat biological aging.

Well, according to a recent study (from May 2025), there’s a simple yet highly effective new solution for protecting your telomeres against shortening. One simple supplement may offer game-changing results to help you age gracefully and improve longevity.

The study, using data conducted by researchers from Mass General Brigham and the Medical College of Georgia, found that taking Vitamin D had startling effects on slowing telomere shortening.

More than 1,000 patients took Vitamin D supplements (along with Omega 3s), and their telomeres were measured two and four years after the study began. The patients that consumed Vitamin D daily or frequently experienced “significant” reduction in telomere shortening over that time.

As one of the researchers made clear in an interview, “Our findings suggest that targeted vitamin D supplementation may be a promising strategy to counter a biological aging process.”

What does this mean for you?

Simple: getting more Vitamin D in your daily life has the potential to slow aging—specifically, biological aging, or the breakdown of cells caused by damage, wear, and the deterioration of your internal mechanisms.

Because Vitamin D slows the rate at which telomeres shorten, it preserves the protective caps that keep your chromosomes from degenerating. You are likely to live longer and suffer from less disease (often caused by cellular deterioration) just by adding more Vitamin D to your life.

The simplest solution for getting more Vitamin D is just to spend more time outdoors.

When sunlight hits your skin, it interacts with 7-dehydrocholesterol (a cholesterol derivative) and causes it to be turned into previtamin D, which your body ultimately uses to produce Vitamin D.

Just half an hour of sunlight a day is enough to maintain healthy Vitamin D levels.

However, if you want to increase Vitamin D production, or you live in a climate that has little to no sunlight for months at a time (common in northern North America or parts of Europe), a Vitamin D supplement may be the best choice.

In the study mentioned above, the participants took only the recommended 2,000 IU of Vitamin D per day. No extraordinary amounts or extra-large doses, just the standard dose that is recommended on every label on every Vitamin D bottle.

But with that amount of Vitamin D, you can improve the health of your skin and bones, boost your immunity, support good brain health, and above all, preserve your longevity.

One small supplement added to your daily routine, but what a difference it can make.

It’ll strengthen your body inside and out and, crucially, protect the telomeres that play such a vital role in normal, healthy biological aging.

Now that’s a change to your lifestyle absolutely worth making!​
Yours in good health,

Andrew Peloquin​

The #1 mistake people make when trying to lower blood pressure
For decades, we’ve been told that one thing is to blame for high blood pressure.
Salt.
It’s been the go-to villain on every health chart, every news segment, every prescription pad.
But what if the story’s wrong?
New research is challenging the conventional wisdom... and suggesting that the problem may not be too much salt…
…but not enough!
Even more surprising?
It’s not just salt.
Coffee, alcohol, fruit, and even certain “heart-healthy” foods may be affecting your blood pressure in ways no one warned you about.
And that’s just the start.
Because when it comes to medication, there’s something most people don’t realize until it’s too late:
The most common prescriptions for high blood pressure may come with a side effect no one wants…
Weight gain.
To help make sense of all this, two health researchers - Catherine Ebeling and Mike Geary - decided to investigate.
What they uncovered was so surprising, they compiled all of it into one easy-to-read document.
And they’re giving it away, free.

Why Are We Oxygen-Deprived?

Natural Living Family — A Bible Health Ministry​
​
Hi JIMI,
We all know oxygen is essential for life—you can’t go more than a few minutes without it. But here’s something you might not realize: the oxygen levels in your body directly affect your ability to stay healthy and fight off disease.
The truth is, disease like cancer thrives in an oxygen-depleted environment. When your body lacks oxygen, harmful microorganisms—like bacteria, viruses, and parasites—can take hold. But when your body is oxygen-rich, those same invaders struggle to survive.
Think of a fast-moving mountain stream—clear, clean, and full of life.
Now, picture a stagnant pond—murky, overgrown with algae, and swarming with bugs. That’s the difference oxygen makes. And your body works the same way.
This is why we're inviting you to join us Thursday for a special presentation of...
⭐ The #1 Health Webinar of 2025⭐ NOTHING is More Important than Oxygen — Discover the Healing Power of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (This Thursday)
Why Are We Oxygen-Deprived?
In a perfect world, we’d get plenty of oxygen just by breathing. But modern life makes that harder than ever. Polluted air, processed foods, chronic stress, and even poor water quality all contribute to low oxygen levels. Some studies have found that oxygen levels in major cities have dropped from 21% to as low as 10%!
Over time, this oxygen deprivation wears us down. Energy drops, brain fog sets in, and the body becomes more vulnerable to illness.
How Do We Fix It?
One of the most effective ways to restore oxygen levels is Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)—a therapy that floods your body with oxygen at increased pressure, supercharging healing and cellular repair. It’s been used for over a century and is backed by thousands of studies.
  • Johns Hopkins Medicine highlights HBOT’s ability to improve immune function and speed up recovery from injuries. (source)
  • The Cleveland Clinic reports that HBOT can accelerate wound healing and fight infections. (source)
  • A study published in Scientific Reports found that HBOT improves neurocognitive functions and symptoms of post-C19 (source)
Not just for cancer clinics any more...
If you’re looking for a natural way to restore your body, support your brain, and improve your overall well-being, HBOT is worth exploring.

    ...Where I challenge them each to answer this crucial question for you...
    "From your unique area of expertise, what are the 3 to 5 little-known steps that have proven so powerful -- to look and feel your best, avoid and overcome disease, and live long -- that you make certain to do them yourself?"
    ... is finished.

Happy Wednesday Jimi!
John A. Richardson, Jr. is a man on a mission to spread the truth about one of the most controversial anticancer foods: apricot kernels.

His father, the late Dr. John Richardson, was a courageous physician who dared to treat cancer patients with laetrile (vitamin B17), a naturally occurring compound found in apricot seeds.

Dr. Richardson was mercilessly persecuted: raided eight times, sued four times, arrested twice, and ultimately lost his medical license for treating patients with a natural therapy that couldn’t be patented. But his legacy lives on.

I’m grateful for John Richardson's courage and dedication to sharing this information with the world. If you’ve never heard the story behind the war against apricot kernels and laetrile, do not miss this interview!

Topics include:
-Exciting times in the health movement
-The untold story behind laetrile and the war on natural cancer therapies
-Dr. Richardson's first laetrile survivor
-8 raids, 4 lawsuits, 2 arrests, and a revoked license
-The corruption of our medical system
-Watch out for the 'fear playbook'
-The Global Wellness Forum and the Cancer Care Innovation Council
-The major clean up of public health issues
-How geoengineering may be harming human health
