Ep 050: A Rogan-Style Chat with Wellness Warrior Kevin Rutherford


Listen Later

In this dynamic and wide-ranging conversation, Jamie Belz welcomes Kevin Rutherford—third-generation trucker, radio host, financial strategist, and Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner—for a deep dive into the intersection of health, freedom, business, and bio-individuality. Kevin went from a fleet owner and business consultant to one of America’s leading independent voices in wellness.

 

This episode unpacks critical truths, touching on:

  • Truck drivers face some of the worst health outcomes in America—how Kevin is helping them reclaim their vitality
  • How Kevin transitioned from trucker and tax advisor to functional nutrition educator and SiriusXM host
  • What got Kevin’s top-rated show canceled—and the truth about censorship and speaking out about vaccines
  • Small changes that create massive results
  • How cutting out seed oils changed Kevin’s skin so much he no longer burns in the sun—even without sunscreen
  • How pressure-canning meat, fermenting vegetables, and gardening helped Kevin build a portable, resilient health routine
  • Diet, ancestry, and geography—and how your DNA might help guide your food choices
  • Why raw milk is illegal in many places while cannabis and fentanyl are not—and what that says about our public health priorities
  • The importance of “doing the hard work” versus just staying busy—and how The War of Art  explains the spiritual resistance that often arises when you’re on the right path
  • How the NTA and MAHA movement are reclaiming truth in wellness
  • Carnivore to vegan to keto—why no single diet works for everyone, and how bio-individuality is the missing piece in modern healthcare
  • Real Food vs the Standard American Diet: Why ingredient labels should be avoided
  • Homesteading & Gardening: How this lifestyle heals body and soul
  • Nutritional Therapy Advocacy: The impact of the NTP program, empowering families, and why doctors, nurses, and health professionals need to get out of the system and into truth-based education
