Hey, Dr. Nandi here…



I just had one of the most eye-opening conversations of my career with addiction expert Tommy Rosen.



He said that basically, addiction is a spectrum, and everybody is on this spectrum in one way or another.



Not what you’d expect to hear, right?



Tommy explained that addiction isn't just about drugs or alcohol.



It's any behavior you continue despite negative consequences.



Like reaching for sugar when you're stressed...



Constantly checking your phone to avoid uncomfortable feelings...



Or even overachieving to get your self-worth from external validation (guilty as charged).



Tommy's been in recovery for 26 years, and he said the key isn't just stopping the behavior...



You have to replace it with something that gives you the same sense of ease, without the harmful effects.



Watch my full conversation with Tommy here >>

Hey Jimi,

Do you ever wonder why you can sleep 8 hours and still wake up exhausted?

Or why that afternoon energy crash hits you so hard Every… Single... Day…?

Here's what you might be missing:

Fatigue isn't about getting more sleep.

It's about the dozens of invisible energy drains that are quietly stealing your vitality…

24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Your phone's blue light.

The electromagnetic fields in your home.

Unprocessed emotions that are trapped in your nervous system.

Even the way you breathe could be sabotaging your energy levels.

Think about it: your great-grandparents didn't need energy drinks to make it through the day.

They didn't collapse into bed.

They lived in harmony with natural rhythms that modern life has completely disrupted.

But here's the good news…

You can restore that natural vitality without expensive supplements or complicated routines.

My friend, Nick Polizzi, has gathered the world's leading health experts for his groundbreaking documentary series…

PROVEN: Healing Breakthroughs Backed By Science…​
>>> Click HERE to discover the real reasons you're always tired (and how to fix them)!

In this eye-opening docuseries, you'll uncover:

  • How QiGong masters maintain boundless energy well into their 90s using simple movement practices.

  • Why "earthing" for just 30 minutes can recharge your body better than a whole night's sleep.

  • The Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) that releases energy-draining trauma stored in your nervous system.

  • Which common herbs can triple your energy levels naturally (without the caffeine crash).

  • And SO. Much. More!

This isn't about managing fatigue.

This is about reclaiming the vibrant energy that's your birthright.

The pharmaceutical industry wants you to believe that fatigue is just part of aging…

Because tired people buy more stimulants, sleep aids, and antidepressants.

But what if the solution isn't in a pill bottle?

What if it's in reconnecting with the natural world and ancient practices that have sustained human vitality for millennia?

>>> Click HERE to register now and discover your path back to boundless energy!

To your health,​

Hi Jimi, it’s Sarah.
In 1993, a group of Chinese runners stunned the world of athletics.
At China’s National Games — often described as “China’s Olympics” — a group of runners coached by Ma Junren smashed world records that experts thought were untouchable.
One of Coach Ma’s runners shattered the previous world record for the 10,000-meter race by an almost unbelievable 42 seconds — a record that stood for 23 years.
Two more of her runners broke the 1,500-meter and 3,000-meter records at the same event.
The stadium went silent. Then the whispers started: “It has to be drugs.”
The runners were tested on the spot — and every test came back clean.
For years, no one could explain their dominance. Until, one day, one of the runners let something slip.
They weren’t relying on banned substances.
They were drinking a simple tea made from the energy-boosting mushroom revealed on page 15 of this free guide.​
​
This mushroom has been treasured for centuries in China and Tibet for its ability to enhance energy and endurance.
Today, modern science backs it up.
In a randomized trial, adults who took this mushroom for just 3 weeks significantly improved their energy levels and exercise performance compared to placebo. (1)

Unlike caffeine, it doesn’t rev you up and then leave you crashing. It works at the cellular level, helping your body make and use energy more efficiently.
And while you may not be training for an Olympic race (that’s definitely not on my agenda!), imagine what it would feel like to…
  • Get through your workday without hitting the 3pm wall.
  • Have enough energy left to enjoy your evenings.
  • Wake up refreshed and ready, instead of dragging yourself out of bed.
If that’s something you want, then grab your free copy of 11 Medicinal Mushrooms to learn about this energy-boosting mushroom and 10 more that support sleep, focus, immunity, and even cancer prevention.
This guide is only available until midnight tomorrow so make sure to claim yours now while it’s still available:
⇒ Claim your free copy of 11 Medicinal Mushrooms here (get yours before it disappears tomorrow)

Here’s another reason to grab the guide now:
When you do, you’ll get instant access to the Replay Weekend for the Proven: Healing Breakthroughs Backed By Science docuseries.

In this 9-part series you’ll get proven natural remedies for gut disorders, heart disease, brain fog, chronic pain, insomnia, and more.
And since all nine episodes are available on-demand, you can watch the ones that interest you most.
This Replay Weekend is airing now through midnight Sunday, September 21. Don’t miss it!

⇒ Go here for instant access to the Proven Replay Weekend and your copy of 11 Medicinal Mushrooms.

Yours for better health, naturally​

“Your body isn’t broken. But the way we treat cancer often is.”

Chris Wark was diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer at 26 years old, two days before Christmas…

The path ahead seemed fixed: surgery + chemo… and “hope for the best.”

But he made a decision most people wouldn’t dare.

He said no to chemotherapy.

(Important: treatment choices are cancer-type and stage-specific. Discuss any changes with your oncology team.)

Doctors told him he was irresponsible. Reckless. That he'd regret it.

But Chris believed something they didn’t:

If how I was living contributed to my cancer… maybe changing how I live could help reverse it.

That belief didn’t come from thin air. It came from research, and it mirrors what more studies are now beginning to confirm:

Modern science now shows that lifestyle, diet, exercise, sleep, chronic stress, and environmental toxins all play a role, not just in developing cancer, but in how the body responds after a diagnosis.

“There is sufficient evidence to support that dietary patterns, inflammation, insulin resistance, and oxidative stress influence cancer risk and progression.”
— Chlebowski et al., 2020 (Journal of Clinical Oncology)

🎥 This Weekend: Watch His Entire Coaching Program for Free​

Chris didn’t just survive.

He’s spent the last 21 years coaching thousands of others through the same healing principles that saved his life.

This weekend, he’s putting his full 10-part video course online for free.

🟩 SQUARE ONE: Healing Cancer Coaching Program
🗓️ Free Replay Weekend: Sept 19–21
👉 Watch Now — Before It Expires

You’ll get:

  • A step-by-step breakdown of the anti-cancer lifestyle
  • The nutrition plan Chris used to overload on healing foods
  • Detox, mindset, and immunity protocols
  • What to remove from your life immediately
  • And interviews with dozens of survivors who walked the same path
🚨 This Isn’t “Alternative.” It’s Evidence-Informed.

We’re not here to bash medicine.

We’re here to add clarity.

Because chemo, radiation, and surgery aren’t one-size-fits-all, and no one talks about how to build a body that can fight from the inside out.

So why are we still pretending chemo is the only thing that matters?

🟢 Click here to watch the SQUARE ONE replay now →


TL;DR​

Chris Wark beat stage 3 colon cancer without chemo, and 21 years later, he’s still here, thriving.

This weekend, his entire 10-part SQUARE ONE healing program is free to watch.

What’s inside?
✅ The exact nutrition plan he used
✅ Lifestyle + detox changes backed by science
✅ Mental and emotional healing tools
✅ What to stop doing immediately
✅ Interviews with real survivors who followed the same path

🗓️ Available FREE until Sunday, Sept 21

Why Home Workouts Can Be More Effective Than the Gym​



When it comes to fitness, the gym often feels like the obvious choice — rows of machines, professional equipment, and classes galore. But for many people, home workouts can actually be more effective.



Here’s why:



1. You’re More Likely to Stick With It
Consistency is key to results, and working out at home removes common excuses like traffic, time, and crowded gyms. A quick 20-minute workout in your living room beats skipping a session because you couldn’t make it across town.



2. No Intimidation Factor
Gyms can feel overwhelming — especially for beginners. At home, you control the vibe. No mirrors, no onlookers, no pressure. This freedom often leads to better focus and a more positive workout experience.



3. Flexible and Efficient
With no commute or waiting for equipment, home workouts are incredibly time-efficient. You can squeeze in a session before work, during lunch, or while dinner cooks. Plus, with the rise of online programs, you have access to thousands of workouts at your fingertips.



4. Tailored to Your Goals
At home, you’re not bound by gym trends. Want strength, mobility, HIIT, or yoga? You can mix it up based on your personal goals — often with minimal equipment. And bodyweight exercises done right can be just as challenging and effective as lifting at the gym.



5. Low Cost, Big Results
No membership fees, no fancy gear needed. Some of the most effective workouts require nothing but your own body and determination.



Bottom Line:
Home workouts cut out distractions and excuses, making it easier to build a habit — and habits are what drive real results. The best workout is the one you’ll actually do, and for many people, that’s right at home.

Over the years I’ve had the privilege of working alongside many leaders in natural health. One of those is my friend Jonathan Landsman, who has been educating the public for nearly four decades on topics that truly matter for long-term wellness.

Jonathan is hosting a brand-new educational series called the Eye Health Docu-Class, and I want to encourage you to take a look. Vision problems are becoming more common worldwide, and what most people don’t realize is that eye health is deeply connected to overall health, especially brain and cardiovascular function, and even autoimmunity.

In fact, the eyes often act as an early warning system. Declining vision can sometimes be a sign of sluggish circulation, chronic inflammation, or nutritional deficiencies that also increase the risk for conditions like stroke, dementia, or heart disease. That’s why I always remind my clients that protecting eyesight isn’t just about seeing clearly, it’s about protecting independence, quality of life, and whole-body health.

This complimentary online program brings together some of the best holistic eye specialists to share practical strategies for:

  • Naturally slowing or reversing vision loss
  • Understanding how vision changes can predict future health concerns
  • Nutritional and lifestyle approaches that build resilience for the eyes, brain, and immune system

Jonathan consistently delivers excellent content, and I have no doubt this series will be valuable for you or someone you love.

Long COVID Poses Health, Heart Concerns

By Chauncey Crandall, M.D.

Although most people who have experienced COVID-19 get better within a few weeks, an estimated 10%-35% of the population has experienced prolonged post-COVID conditions — a condition of new, returning, or ongoing health problems that can last weeks, months, or years after the initial illness.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, long COVID is a serious illness that can result in chronic conditions that require comprehensive care and may cause disability.

Special: Reducing Inflammation Is the Key to Recovery. This New Research Shows You How.

Patients with long COVID can experience a wide variety of symptoms, with the most common being fatigue, shortness of breath, mental cloudiness (“brain fog”), and heartbeat irregularities, frequently felt as palpitations. People can be reinfected with the SARS-CoV-2 virus multiple times, and each time a person is infected, they have a risk of developing long COVID.

Long COVID is also associated with heart issues. Inflammation from the body's response to COVID-19 infection can lead to an increased risk of heart problems, even in individuals who experienced mild initial cases. These issues can manifest as heart attacks, heart failure, or other abnormalities, potentially indicating future cardiac and pulmonary diseases, according to the Mount Sinai Health System.

While rates of new cases of long COVID have decreased since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, it remains a serious public health concern, as millions of U.S. adults and children have been affected by long COVID.

There is currently no laboratory test that can determine if your symptoms or conditions are due to long COVID. There are also no proven treatments for long COVID, and current management of the condition focuses on ways to relieve symptoms or provide rehabilitation.

Hi Friend,
Antibiotics have saved countless lives.
But they can also wreak havoc on your microbiome. And their overuse could render them ineffective within a generation.
In fact, by 2050, we could be living in a post-antibiotic world. Antibiotic-resistant bacteria threaten to kill millions of people and cost us hundreds of billions of dollars every year.
So, should you use antibiotics? And what can you do to preserve their efficacy for future generations?
Here’s what you need to know about antibiotics.
Yours for smart choices,

Is breast cancer fear a business model?

  • mail

    You are receiving this email because you opted into Dr. Mariza's newsletter. Click here to unsubscribe​
    Hey Jim,

    We’re told the same scary story on repeat:

    “Breast cancer is inevitable—1 in 8—so plan for it now.”

    Sound familiar? It used to terrify me, too.

    That fear-first message is everywhere—from pink ribbons to waiting rooms to well-meaning friends saying “get checked.”

    But here’s what I’ve learned after years with women and the research:
    Your breasts are not ticking time bombs.

    They’re intelligent, hormone-responsive organs deeply connected to your vitality. And when you learn how to care for them—not just screen in fear—everything changes.

    My friend Dr. Christiane Northrup has spent decades studying this. She's discovered that breast cancer isn't some inevitable fate we're all marching toward. It's often the result of specific, addressable factors that we can actually influence.

    She’s sharing it all in a free masterclass that is absolutely worth your time—and I don't say that lightly. >>

    Yes, this might challenge what you’ve heard your whole life.

    But after supporting thousands of women, I’ve seen what happens when we shift from fear to empowerment.

    In this powerful session, you’ll discover:
    • ✅ What actually drives breast risk—and why scary stats can mislead
    • ✅ Root causes most doctors never discuss (and what you can do)
    • ✅ Screening myths vs. informed options—so choices feel right for you
    • ✅ Dr. Northrup’s daily breast-care protocol—simple, doable habits that last
    • ✅ How hormones & emotions shape breast tissue—plus natural support
    • ✅ A confident, proactive plan to own your breast health—without constant fear
    This is not denial. This is education and agency.

    We’re moving from “search and destroy” to health-creating practices that help you feel safe, strong, and at home in your body.
    You deserve clarity—not fear.
    You deserve real tools—not doom.
    You deserve your power back.
    Much Love,
    Dr. Mariza

Weight Loss Forensics Podcast:
(Ep 186) Your family and friends don’t want you to lose weight. And it can be one of the most defeating experiences when they try to sabotage your efforts. It feels like you’re being betrayed, and then if you try to stand up for yourself, it feels like you’re being rejected. So why does this happen?

Let me ask you something simple...

If you take any kind of ongoing prescription medicines, how many doses do you have left right now?

(Go check. I’ll wait.)

Now imagine you’re two weeks into a catastrophic disaster… and that’s ALL you have left.

No power.
No supply chain.
No pharmacy open down the street.

If that question makes your stomach sink a little, you're not alone...

Over 60% of Americans rely on prescription medications every single day...

... but less than 10% of citizens have even started building a backup plan for a long-term crisis.

That’s not just a gap in preparedness - that’s a serious survival threat.

In the event of a crisis that slows (or even shuts down!) our transportation system, the domino effect will be felt very quickly - and medicines will be one of the first resources that go away - even before food and water!​
mail
Here's the hard truth:

Even if you do manage to stockpile your meds, your stash will eventually run out - leaving you desperate for "something" to rely on to manage your conditions.

So the real question becomes...

What’s your plan when you hit zero?

Fortunately, before there were pharmaceutical companies, there were plants.

Now, I’m not saying you should toss your prescriptions and chew on some weeds instead…

But there are proven, natural alternatives that may help bridge the gap when modern medicine is no longer an option.

The key though is learning about them now - while you still can.

Here are some examples I grabbed from my copy of the "Home Doctor Survival Medicine Reference Manual":

For Anxiety, Anti-Depressants & "Gut Problems

You’ll want to look into Lemon Balm, which affects the same GABA pathways targeted by anti-anxiety medications.

It’s been shown to reduce cortisol levels and calm the gut during high-stress situations - which, let’s face it, is exactly what a collapse will be.

For High Blood Pressure Or Cardiovascular Issues

Hibiscus isn’t just a trendy tea ingredient - studies have shown it can reduce blood pressure to levels comparable with low-dose ACE inhibitors.

It also supports liver health, which becomes critically important when regular medical support disappears.

For Diabetes Or Blood Sugar Control

Tulsi (also called Holy Basil) has been shown to regulate blood glucose levels and also helps your body adapt to both physical and emotional stress.

It can support cardiovascular function and stabilize the kinds of energy crashes that become dangerous without insulin.

For Asthma, COPD Or Other Respiratory Conditions

Mullein is a powerful plant with expectorant and anti-inflammatory properties that help clear bronchial congestion and ease breathing.

If pharmaceutical inhalers become inaccessible, having this plant on hand could be the difference between panic… and peace.

These are just a few tips to get you started.

Of course there are all kinds of other ailments you may face - especially in disaster environments which are loaded with toxins, bacteria, mold, and God knows what else.

Frankly, it's too much for anyone to try to memorize unless you're a doctor or expert herbalist.

That's why I always tell my coaching clients to simply grab a copy of the "Home Doctor Survival Medicine Reference Manual" to keep on-hand as a good resource...

This isn't some woo-woo herbal book written by a barefoot hippie living in a yurt.

It really is a solid "tactical guide" - written by real doctors - that's focused on real-world natural medicine that works when modern options vanish.

Then you don't even have to "study" it.

If a symptom pops up for you or a family member, you just take out your manual... look up your symptoms... and follow the instructions​

Imagine being able to confidently reach for just the right herb to help you and your loved ones recover from illness.
Plants have always been the people’s medicine, but somewhere along the way we lost connection with our ability to discern which plant to reach for.
What if we can rediscover and hone those latent abilities?
Right now, my dear friend, Rosalee de la Forêt, is offering a free training to help you do just that.
Years ago, Rosalee showed my late husband, John Gallagher, a “back of the napkin” sketch that he knew would change the way herbs are taught.
Here’s part of that original sketch:

Instead of focusing on memorizing facts or building an extensive library, her idea was to create a learning framework that uses a person’s senses to discover the healing properties of herbs.
All those facts and fancy herbal terms can get confusing, making it hard to feel like you truly “understand” an herb.
This led Rosalee to create her Herbal Energetics Flavor Wheel.
Her free MINI Herbal Energetics Course uses that wheel to empower you to confidently choose herbs that will genuinely benefit you and your loved ones—without the stress of memorization or fear of unintended consequences.
Join Rosalee’s free MINI Herbal Energetics Course today.

Here’s what you’ll gain from Rosalee’s new course:
  • Expert tips to overcome overwhelm and confusion, allowing you to confidently select herbs for yourself and your loved ones.
  • A unique safety framework to ease fears about using herbs.
  • A live tea-tasting class to kickstart your practical herbal skills.
  • A guide to uncover your personal herbal constitution.
I know you’re going to love Rosalee’s course and I am so excited to get to share this invitation with you!

Breakfast sausage shares a cancer label with cigarettes
“Processed meat is officially classified as a Group 1 carcinogen, the same category as tobacco.”
(International Agency for Research on Cancer, 2015)
That doesn’t mean it’s just as dangerous, but it does mean the evidence that it causes cancer is just as strong.
And here’s the part nobody tells you:
Most of us eat that evidence every morning.
🧠 But what if food isn’t just fuel…
What if it’s the most underused weapon in chronic disease prevention?
That’s exactly why Kim Murphy, certified plant-based health coach and bestselling author, is hosting a 5-day challenge you’ll want to click into right now:

👉 Join the Plant-Based Beginner’s Bootcamp (FREE)

What Makes This Challenge Different?​

We’re not talking about green smoothies and salad guilt.
We’re talking about clinically-aligned, evidence-informed habits that:
  • Lower chronic inflammation

Hi Jim,​

Of all the health complaints I field, brain fog is near the top of the list.

It’s also one I deeply empathize with, as I experienced it after suffering mercury poisoning. When you have it, you can’t think clearly, focus, or remember things.

It’s as if you’re wading through mental quicksand.

In functional medicine, we view this often debilitating symptom as a warning light on your body’s dashboard.

However, similar to a strange pinging or screeching noise in your car, pinpointing the root cause of brain fog can require a bit of detective work.

That’s because brain fog isn’t a disease like heart disease or cancer.

Instead, like a persistent cough, it’s a symptom with many potential causes. Possible culprits include poor sleep, stress, dehydration, and exposure to toxins like mercury, among others.

However…

One of the biggest drivers of brain fog lies in your gut.
Many people are sensitive to one or more foods. When they consume them, these foods disrupt the gut.

The gut disruption then sends ripple effects to the brain, leading to feelings of fogginess and a lack of focus.

Based on my clinical experience with patients, five foods top the list of most common offenders. Are you eating them?​

Today, let's discuss oxidative stress, free radicals, and, most notably, the implications of each on prostate cancer. When fighting against prostate cancer, the goal is to protect cells from damage that can cause unhealthy cell division. Therefore, protecting against oxidative stress is crucial in keeping the prostate healthy and discouraging the development of aberrant cells.



Why are prostate cancer patients particularly vulnerable to oxidative stress from free radicals?



Free radicals damage DNA and may be involved in prostate cancer initiation and promotion. It is possible that overproduction of free radicals results in tumor formation. Antioxidants can reduce the overproduction of such damaging chemicals, thereby reducing the likelihood of prostate cancer development and progression.



What are free radicals and oxidative stress, and how do they inflict damage?



Your cells have parts called atoms that like to be paired with two electrons on their outside shell. If a cell loses an electron, it would be unstable and attempt to steal (or donate) an electron from other healthy cells. This unpaired cell is called a free radical (or reactive oxygenated species (ROS) and, when overproduced, can cause a damaging process called oxidative stress.



Some free radicals we make naturally in our bodies, while external factors like radiation cause others. When ROS's are out of control, however, they scavenge your body to grab or donate electrons, damaging cells, proteins, and our genetic material (i.e., DNA).



What are antioxidants, and how do they combat free radicals?



As the name implies, "antioxidants" are substances capable of countering oxidation's damaging but normal physiological effects. Thus, antioxidants, which are found in food and dietary supplements, neutralize free radicals. But unfortunately, during the process of our body protecting us from oxidative damage, antioxidants get used up and stop working in protecting our healthy cells from further oxidation. That is why there is a constant need to replenish our antioxidant needs by consuming good food and properly using dietary supplements.



Antioxidants work better together than in isolation?



Antioxidant use in isolation is ineffective or can likely promote disease. For example, one study looking at either selenium consumed by itself or mixed with other antioxidants showed a 23% decrease in cardiovascular disease mortality and a 10% decrease in all-cause mortality in the selenium/antioxidant group compared to only selenium.



The same idea is the case with prostate cancer. Combining selenium with the full family subtypes of vitamin E works better than consuming just one type of vitamin E or selenium alone in protecting against prostate cancer.



What behaviors will help me in my fight against free radicals and prevent too much oxidative stress?

  1. Don’t smoke. Smoking produces numerous types of free radicals that contribute to heart disease and cancer.
  2. Moderate exercise has antioxidant value, while intense exercise can be pro-oxidative. Both forms of exercise are important for longevity, but consuming antioxidants from food and supplements can protect you from exercise-induced free radical production.
  3. Eat a diet rich in vegetables and fruits. To best defend yourself against free radicals, you should eat a diet high in all types of berries and vegetables – and yes, organic is best.
  4. Do not consume multivitamins with iron. Iron is a required element of human nutrition. However, an overabundant consumption of iron promotes free radicals that destroy healthy cells.
  5. Spice up your diet. Eating plenty of spices, including garlic, onions, rosemary, and turmeric, would be best. They all have powerful antioxidant properties.
  6. Don't eat crap. Consuming sugary foods and processed foods not only does not protect against free radicals but also promotes them.
What supplements will further help by boosting my anti-oxidant levels?



Contact your healthcare practitioner for specific recommendations to determine the best antioxidant mix for you. In my clinical practice, I prescribe a combination of GDtoxSel and ImmunoPCTN for my patients with prostate cancer.



As always, it is important to emphasize the importance of the whole XY Wellness program that incorporates diet, exercise, sleep improvement, stress reduction, and targeted nutraceutical support. The whole is greater than the sum of its parts, including protecting us against oxidative stress.



So, let's be aware of oxidative stress, and take a few simple steps toward reducing it in our bodies. Our bodies are busy enough warding off a disease like prostate cancer, so let's not tax it further by allowing free radicals free reign.





All the Best to You,
 
Jimi
