A Placebo Can Work Even When You Know It’s a Dummy Pill
Editor’s Note: This article is a reprint. It was originally published September 13, 2018. By definition, a placebo is an inert substance that has no effect on your body. In medical research, placebos (such as sugar pills) are used as controls against which the effects of drugs are measured. However, the placebo effect, in which a patient believes he or she is getting an actual drug and subsequently improves despite receiving no active substance at all, has become a well-recognized phenomenon.1 Some studies into the placebo effect have even...
read moreThe Spread of Vaccine-Derived Polio
The historical record of the enterovirus poliovirus traces as far back as 1580 B.C.1 The modern record began in 1879 when the clinical effects of the poliovirus were first described by British physician Dr. Michael Underwood. By 1840, Dr. Jacob von Heine had developed the theory that the disease may be contagious. More than 50 years later in 1894, the first outbreak of infantile paralysis was documented in the U.S. In 1938, the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis was established and later became the March of Dimes. It would be nearly...
read moreHPV Vaccine Mandate to Attend College
A proposed California bill, AB 659, would require public college students under 26 to receive the human papilloma virus (HPV) vaccine in order to attend college.1 The bill originally proposed mandating the shot for middle schoolers, as a requirement to enter eighth grade. This was amended and it now proposes a requirement for schools to notify parents that their children “are expected” to get the HPV vaccine before entering 8th grade at any public or private school in the state.2 While HPV is the most common sexually transmitted...
read more‘Dirt Rich’ — Importance of Biochar and Regenerative Systems
Editor’s Note: This article is a reprint. It was originally published October 6, 2018. It’s easy to forget that at one point, not so long ago, all food was organically grown in a way that supported the ecosystem and environment. This abruptly changed in the 1940s when the Green Revolution took hold and industrial, chemical-dependent farming techniques quickly spread to become the norm. Organic farming sustained mankind for millennia. Industrial farming, on the other hand, has created a series of unsustainable situations in less than 70 years,...
read moreGlycine to Increase Longevity and Decrease Depression
Glycine, a nonessential amino acid, meaning your body can make it, but most of us as we age are simply unable to make enough of it, especially if our dietary intake is low because we are not eating enough connective tissue and collagen in our diet. New research is emerging showing glycine is a powerful longevity enhancer, one that’s not only inexpensive but also has a pleasant, slightly sweet flavor. In fact, glycine is sometimes used as a sugar substitute, and I personally take 1 teaspoon with each of my two meals and before bedtime...
read moreJunk Food ‘Brainwashes’ You so You’re Wired to Eat More
If you’re like most people, you’re consuming an unhealthy amount of sugar on a regular basis. Even if you don’t consistently eat junk food, candy or sweetened beverages, most processed foods contain an excessive amount of added sugar. The BBC documentary1 “The Truth About Sugar,” revealed one serving of Pad Thai noodles has nearly 9.5 teaspoons of sugar; a package of sweet and sour chicken with rice has 12.5 teaspoons; and a serving of dry bran flakes, a breakfast that many think is a healthier choice, has 3 teaspoons. It is...
read moreMedia Covers Up Tracking of Unvaccinated People
In mid-February 2023, I reported that the U.S. government has secretly been tracking those who didn’t get the COVID jab, or are only partially jabbed, through a previously unknown surveillance program designed by the U.S. National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS), a division of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.1 Within days, fact checkers were burning the midnight oil trying to debunk the idea that individual people are being tracked, or that these data could be misused by government or third parties. Strangely enough,...
read moreAntidefamation League Defames Substack Authors
In this upside-down, inside-out and backwards world we now live in, it shouldn’t be a major shock when the Antidefamation League (ADL) turns coattails and starts defaming people and spewing hate speech. Still, it does make one’s head spin a bit. The ADL was founded in 1913, with the mission of stopping “the defamation of Jewish people and to secure justice and fair treatment for all.” As stated on its website, “ADL is founded with the clear understanding that the fight against one form of prejudice cannot succeed...
read moreMedical Cannabis Offers New Hope for Those With IBD
Editor’s Note: This article is a reprint. It was originally published August 29, 2018. The marijuana plant contains more than 60 different cannabinoids; chemical compounds the human body is uniquely equipped to respond to. The two primary ones are cannabidiol (CBD) and tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the latter of which is the psychoactive component. Cannabinoids interact with your body by way of naturally occurring cannabinoid receptors embedded in cell membranes throughout your body. There are cannabinoid receptors in your brain, lungs, liver,...
read moreNPR Labeled as State-Affiliated Media
When you think about state-affiliated media, propaganda-driven outlets in Russia and China may come to mind — not familiar news outlets right here in the U.S. However, if you view National Public Radio (NPR) on Twitter, you’ll see it’s now labeled “government-funded media.”1Initially, Twitter had labeled NPR “state-affiliated media,” categorizing it similarly to Russia’s state-run RT and China’s Xinhua News Agency.2 However, backlash ensued, prompting Twitter to downgrade the label to the slightly less jarring “government-funded media,”...
read moreCOVID’s Link to a Sharp Increase in POTS
Long COVID, also known as long-haul COVID, chronic COVID or long-haul syndrome, refers to symptoms that persist for four or more weeks after an initial COVID-19 infection.1 Signs and symptoms of long COVID include2 fatigue, shortness of breath, joint pain, memory, concentration or sleep problems, fast or pounding heartbeat, dizziness and depression or anxiety. These symptoms result from damage to your lungs, immune system, mitochondria, heart and nervous system. According to board-certified internist and cardiologist Dr. Peter McCullough, a...
read moreBeef Producers Panic Over mRNA Vaccine News
Last week, I reported that pork producers have been using customizable mRNA-based “vaccines” on their herds since 20181 — without telling the public. This issue really only rose to the surface after attorney Tom Renz started promoting new legislation in Missouri (House Bill 1169,2 which he helped write) that would require labeling of mRNA products.3 In an April 1, 2023, tweet (and no, this was not an April Fool’s joke), Renz stated:4 “BREAKING NEWS: the lobbyists for the cattleman and pork associations in several...
read moreWet Wipes Increase Your Child’s Risk of Allergies
Editor’s Note: This article is a reprint. It was originally published April 25, 2018. Are you in the habit of using wet wipes on yourself or your baby? If so, your quest for clean may be doing more harm than good, and in more ways than one. With an infusion of aloe and fragrance, some people have made a complete switch from toilet paper to wet wipes, not realizing that the chemicals used, such as preservatives and fragrances, can cause painful skin irritation around your privates and other health problems.1 Wet wipes are also clogging sewers,...
read moreIodine Truth and Lies
Your body cannot produce iodine, so you must get it from your food. Although iodine deficiency is reemerging as a public health threat,1 it is completely preventable in the Western world. It is a critically important trace mineral, which means that your body needs it in very small doses. Although many cells use iodine, your thyroid gland uses what’s available first to produce the thyroid hormones triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4). According to Harvard TH Chan School of Public Health,2 most people in the U.S. get their dietary iodine...
read moreCOVID Doctor Who Left Hospital Job Has a Vision for Health Care
Before the COVID pandemic, Dr. Paul Marik became well-known for his development of a highly effective sepsis protocol using intravenous vitamin C, which resulted in a dramatic reduction in mortality rates. Then, in 2020, he cofounded the Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance (FLCCC) and subsequently published one of the most comprehensive and effective protocols for treating COVID-19. Despite a stellar career up to that point, the sin of insisting on early treatment for COVID-19, and sharing that information with the public, resulted in...
