In this compelling episode of the Crackin’ Backs Podcast, we sit down with Dr. Andria Klioze—physician, disease-reversal pioneer, and founder of the wellness platform Shield of Life. After years inside the rule-bound system of the Veterans Affairs (VA) caring for patients with advanced illnesses, Dr. Klioze made a bold decision: to leave the traditional structure and build a new model of care focused on gut health, soil microbiome, energy medicine, and true resilience.

In this episode you’ll learn:

• What it costs a doctor to trade “prescriptions for possibility,” and how hope, truth, love and faith can meet evidence-based medicine.
• The hardest lessons she had to unlearn after stepping away from the VA, and what healing really looks like when you remove bureaucracy.
• Why she calls her garden philosophy – and how the soil beneath your feet may reflect the health within your body.
• Her breakthrough integration of the human gut microbiome, soil biology and pulsed electromagnetic activation (PEMA), uniting energy medicine and biology.
• A life-changing patient story that redefines “reversal,” and the tools she uses when everyday life feels numb or cynical to keep belief alive.

Whether you’re looking for ways to reverse disease, reboot your health, or question the limits of modern medicine, this discussion cuts deep. It’s for the seekers, the skeptics, and anyone ready to step into possibility.
