In this episode of the Experience Miracles Podcast, Dr. Tony Ebel tackles the controversial topic of supplement overload in children with chronic health challenges. Drawing from his clinical experience, he reveals why doing "all the right things" might not be working if they're done in the wrong order. This episode breaks down the neuroscience behind why nervous system regulation must come before heavy supplementation and detoxification protocols. Dr. Ebel explains the "neuro-gut" connection and provides a foundational approach that prioritizes healing from the inside out, challenging the common "more is better" mentality in natural health interventions.
