I didn’t do anything to artificially lower my fever when I recently had Covid. Unless a fever gets dangerously high, it’s best to let it do its thing. Fever is our body’s natural immune response to help kill infection. Even though fever is inconvenient and doesn’t feel great, it serves a purpose. Our perception is that it’s something we “get” as a result of being sick instead of looking at it as a tool our body uses to help us get well.

Hippocrates, the father of medicine, said, “Give me a fever, and I can cure any disease.”

In her book Gut and Physiology syndrome, Dr Natasha Campbell-McBride says,

“Fever is good for us. It is a major tool our immune system uses for killing disease-causing microbes, destroying toxins and removing cancer cells. If you have a fever for a few days and do not interfere with it, you clean your body, remove chronic infections, prevent cancer formation and rejuvenate yourself. During fever your immune system re-sets itself, re-balances its various branches, re-groups and becomes more effective at dealing with the environment. It is particularly vital to allow fever to run in our babies and small children. Children are born with immature immune systems, which require education. The first fever your child develops is a major educational experience for the child’s immune system. If the fever is not allowed to run, the child’s immune system has missed an important lesson. Instead, it has received a wrong lesson, which may lay the ground for allergies and autoimmunity in the future.”
In this week’s podcast episode, I’m talking about this and other approaches I took when I recently got Covid. Come listen!

In this week’s episode I’m interviewing Amanda Wilcox, aka:The Uncensored Nurse. She left conventional medicine after witnessing it fail herself, her family, her friends and her patients. She started making connections after both her daughter and her best friend’s son suffered reactions from their immunization shots.

Amanda personally continues to battle hormonal issues after spending years on birth control.

She wants to know why doctors take out things like tonsils - lymphatic glands that play a role in immune function - without considering root cause issues.

She exposes information like how J.D. Rockefeller influenced the death of holistic medicine in America in favor of big pharma.

You never know what kind of information she’s going to share but it’s always fascinating! Come listen to this week’s episode where we open all kinds of cans of worms. 😂

Many people are very black or white, on or off, A or F when it comes to their health goals. If they don’t do it perfectly, they consider it a failure and often give up. But when your kid comes home with B (or even less), do you say: You might as well stop trying and get an F? And you might as well make it the F of all F’s? Let’s see how low you can go!

Of course we don’t. And, yet, it’s what we do with our health goals.

Well, I wasn’t an A today, I didn’t do it perfectly, so forget it, where’s the ice cream and the chips and the vodka?

We take our B- straight to the toilet and flush all of our efforts and previous good work down the tubes because we didn’t do it perfectly. One of the hardest things we have to learn is grace for being imperfect without allowing ourselves to pity party into deeper failure. Do you know how much weight you could lose and health you could gain with B- work? A lot my friend. You can accomplish much more in your consistent imperfection than in your sporadic perfection.

That’s what we’re talking about in this week’s podcast episode. Come listen to more about

the B- Approach health and weight loss.

When I learned that early Christians observed a three day spiritual practice near the beginning of each solar cycle, called Ember Days, that involved abstaining from meat and focusing on prayer and thanksgiving, I realized this would be a wonderful template to revive and utilize as a quarterly health and spiritual tune-up.

At the beginning of each new season in The Christian Health Club, we do a 3-day detox that removes all meat, fish, eggs, dairy, nuts/seeds, grains, sugar and alcohol. We eat vegetables, fruit and plant fats like avocados, olives and coconut. As much as I praise animal sourced foods as a critical part of the diet, I recognize that periodically cycling them out is a healthy practice for the body. It gives the digestive system a break and it allows for deeper cleansing of the cells.
In this week’s podcast we’re talking about how observing the Ember Days and Winter Solstice adds richness to the season of Advent by honoring how our Creator made the earth, the sun, our food, our bodies and how He gave us eternal light by the birth, death and resurrection of His Son. Come listen to this timely episode and put it into practice!

All of the parts of your body need energy to do their work. Whether it’s your brain, your heart, your adrenals, your gut, your liver, your eyes, your skin, your kidneys or any other part of your body - the cells must generate enough power so they can function. That’s the job of the mitochondria.

Some parts of the body, like the brain and the eyes, have more mitochondria per cell because they are more metabolically demanding. In fact, age-related conditions like Alzheimer's and macular degeneration are related to poor mitochondrial function. The aging process in general is a decline of mitochondrial health.

Many medical approaches overlook the fact that the organ can’t work unless the mitochondria work. Instead of supporting mitochondrial function, drugs like statins, antibiotics, acid blockers and metformin are prescribed - which further degrade mitochondrial function.

In this week’s podcast we’re talking about ways to supercharge your mitochondria so that all of the parts of your body have the energy to do their job. This is how we slow the aging process and optimize health. Come listen and learn!
