In this episode of Healthy & Awake Podcast, I'm joined by the legendary Dr. Jack Kruse, a pioneer in health and wellness. Dr. Kruse has relocated to El Salvador to work with the President on amending the Constitution, promoting medical freedom, and contributing to the country's health revolution. We explore his experiences in this monumental endeavor and answer audience questions about circadian rhythms and their impact on weight loss and overall health. We also discuss the significance of light exposure timing. Dr. Kruse’s passionate, sometimes vulgar language adds intensity to our conversation. While I typically maintain a clean tone, I encourage my guests to speak freely, so be aware that this episode may not be suitable for sensitive listeners. Dr. Kruse’s candid insights are a testament to our mission to challenge the status quo and engage with controversial health topics.

Join us for an insightful episode with Dr. Stella Immanuel, a Cameroonian-American physician and minister, who brings a unique blend of medical expertise and spiritual fervor to the forefront of health discussions. With a diverse background in general medicine and pediatrics, complemented by her leadership at Fire Power Ministries in Houston, Texas, Dr. Immanuel shares her experiences with early therapeutic approaches in a challenging health landscape, alongside the role of faith in her practice and advocacy.

Dr. Immanuel's narrative is both compelling and controversial, offering a fresh perspective on holistic wellness in today’s world. She was a delightful person to talk to, and I think you're really going to enjoy that episode.
