53: Folic Acid Is Poison? Why Dr. Tatum Toner Says It’s Public Health Enemy #1


Listen Later

What if the nutrient pushed on pregnant women, added to your food, and recommended by your doctor… is actually making you sick?

In this explosive episode of The Gubba Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Tatum Toner—formerly known as “Dr. Toner,” now simply Tatum of RenwellMD, who left her hospital job, her license, and the medical system altogether after discovering a truth too big to ignore.

Tatum is a board-certified MD who was deep in the trenches during COVID-19, following every protocol and public health guideline to a T. But when her own health began to collapse—from debilitating migraines, IBS, chronic fatigue, and even early dementia symptoms—she started asking questions the system didn’t want her to ask.

And what she found?

The real threat to public health isn’t a virus—it’s folic acid.

The synthetic form of folate, added to processed foods and prescribed to vulnerable populations, may be blocking your body's ability to detox, causing chronic inflammation, and silently contributing to everything from infertility to cancer.

We dive deep into:

Why folic acid is NOT the same as folate—and why that difference matters

How the MTHFR gene mutation makes folic acid even more dangerous

The shocking history of folic acid’s FDA approval and food fortification

How Tatum reversed her chronic health issues and left Big Pharma for good

Why detoxification, not medication, is the missing piece in true healing

How the medical system is designed to keep you sick, not get you well

Tatum also shares her personal journey through medical school, how she once preached germ theory and prescription drugs, and what ultimately made her walk away from her career, title, and salary to reclaim her role as a true healer.

If you’ve ever felt betrayed by modern medicine… if you’ve been chronically ill and told “everything looks normal”… if you’re just starting to question the system and want real answers—this is the episode Big Pharma hopes you never hear.

This isn’t just about folic acid. It’s about reclaiming your health, your body, and your power.
