Let's Talk Wellness Now

MCAS is triggered by Mold exposure and infections like Lyme, Co-infections, Strep and more. Dr. Deb and Beth O’hara talk about what causes Mast cell activation and how to treat it when you are so sensitive.

Do not miss these highlights:

04:18 What is Mast Cell Activation Syndrome?

07:42 People are sicker now, and we’re living in this incredibly toxic soup of a world. 

10:43 The timeframe of MCAS treatment.

14:14 Defining Mast Cell Activation.

19:52 The symptoms of Mast Cell Activation Syndrome.

26:11 Mold is the hardest thing people go through and for many people it’s traumatizing. What’s the remediation?

31:45 It is, and there’s no, there’s no one solution that works for everybody. It’s about looking at each individual person. So we also have a mold inspector who consults as a third party.

32:51 And then the other thing I share as you’re checking people out, is if a company tries to sell you that they can remediate your home only with a fogging solution and you don’t have to remove the mold. Runaway, please don’t give them any money. Because that doesn’t work. All it does is improve your air quality temporarily and locks you into having to have that treatment done again and again and again and again. 

36:03 why children and pets are more heavily affected 

37:56 How do you find a specialist to help you with Masel Activation?

44:49 only 10% of people are being diagnosed. So it doesn’t mean you don’t have it. If you don’t have a diagnosis. 

46:05 the mold toxicity because of how destructive mold toxins are.

About our Guest:

I’m Beth O’Hara, and I work with clients with Mast Cell Activation Syndrome. I am a Functional Naturopath and Functional Genetic Analyst. I have a Doctorate in Naturopathy specializing in Functional Naturopathic Approaches and a Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy. I found my own root causes contributing to my MCAS and have been able to heal. I can help you find your root causes too. 

After decades of seeing traditional health care practitioners, I felt like I was at the end of my rope. The medications often made me worse. Being given the wrong supplements didn’t help either. Finally, I discovered a three part approach that helped me get well: Genetic Analysis, Functional Naturopathy, and Emotional Wellness. Combining the three approaches allowed me to explore genetic root causes underlying my MCAS. I analyzed my lab testing to better understand imbalances in my body. This helped me choose supplements personalized for my individual needs. Stress reduction techniques form a big part of my self-care as well. These things all allowed my body to heal. Since then, my passion is working with others with MCAS to find their root causes and support their healing. 

I have been in practice for over 10 years and have helped hundreds of clients. I can help you too. Together, we will identify your unique root causes, analyze your lab results, and develop a customized healing plan based on your needs, goals, and lifestyle. I’m really looking forward to meeting you on this journey and guiding you in regaining your health, wellness, and full potential.

I am going to be speaking with Beth O’Hara, who is a naturopath and she works with clients with mast cell activation. She’s a functional naturopath, a functional genetic analyst. She has a doctorate in naturopathic specializing in functional naturopathic approaches, and a master’s in marriage and family therapy. She found her own root causes contributing to her issues with mast cell activation, and was able to heal them. If you cannot find the root cause you cannot treat it. So after decades of seeing traditional healthcare practitioners, Beth felt like she was at the end of her rope. Like so many of us who’ve had chronic illness, and with wrong diagnoses, wrong supplements, wrong medications, she finally figured out for herself what was causing her problems and was able to heal. So now she combines three approaches that allow her to explore the genetic root causes underlying her own mast cell and her clients to better understand the imbalances and help them heal. So without further ado, I’m going to bring on Dr. Beth O’Hara, and we’re going to talk about mast cell and mold toxicity. So Beth, welcome to the show.

Beth O’hara 3:49Thank you so much. I’m really excited about it. And I find over and over. This is a big lightbulb conversation for people with chronic illness. And it’s so common.

Debra Muth 3:59It is extremely common. You and I probably see it because that’s where we specialize in. But the unfortunate part that I see and I’d love to hear your opinion on this, too is how many people we see in the general public are who are seeing regular doctors over and over and over again for complications of things. And nobody is linking it back to their house being sick, or them having a chronic infection, or them even understanding what mast cell is because I find so many doctors don’t understand what mast cell is or how to treat it or anything. Can you talk a little bit about your experience with that?

Beth O’hara 4:36Well that’s exactly right. And I have a lot of clients. Not a lot but I’ve had a handful clients in medical school. And so they’re getting the like most up to date what’s being taught and they come in and say we had a one hour lecture on mast cells and mast cell activation syndrome still not being taught and we know it only got a diagnosis code in 2016 and It usually takes 10 to 20 years for medical school to catch up with the research for various reasons. The population studies that were done pre-COVID showed that 17% up to 17% of the general population has mast cell activation syndrome. That’s including healthy people. And then we know that COVID is a huge mast cell trigger that’s been established. And so all these people develop mast cell activation syndrome post-COVID. And don’t realize it. I think this is where we’re getting into all these issues with long COVID, which is a whole other conversation we can touch on. But because the mast cells aren’t being properly addressed, and when they’re being addressed in our clinic, we’re not seeing long haulers. So that’s been great. But I think this that 17% is now much higher, and we need new population studies, given what we’ve just been going through. And then when I talk with my colleagues in this area, we’re estimating that over 75% of people with chronic illness are dealing with mast cell activation syndrome. And this is a big thing that’s tying together going, you know, the GI symptoms and the neurological symptoms and the cardiovascular symptoms. But people are running from specialist to specialist, somebody has to tie it in. Yeah, what’s going on underneath? And then the biggest triggers, why are these mast cells dysregulated have to be identified and know that’s what we’re going to unpack here.

Debra Muth 6:31Yeah, absolutely. And I would agree with you, so many people that have chronic illness, have some degree of mast cell, I mean, it may not be full blown dysfunction, you know, they they have a major issue, but there’s some degree of it. And we’re seeing more and more of it than we ever have before in our chronic illness. I started treating Lyme disease and mold toxicity 25 years ago, we didn’t see the mast cell stuff back then the way we see it now. And maybe we just didn’t know it was there. And we didn’t know what to call it. Back then we called a lot of it chemical sensitivity. That was the big term back then. And now I look at it and go. I think that chemical ...

What is lyme? Lyme is a tick-borne disease. Why is it hard to detect? Because testing is poor and many doctors still do not believe it exists. Dr. Deb talks about why it is hard to diagnose and what treatments are working today compared to even 5 years ago. 

Do not miss these highlights:

00:42 A number of practitioners today still tell patients that Lyme disease doesn’t exist.

05:50 Lyme disease or Tick-borne disease can cause many psychological symptoms like anxiety, depression, brain fog, and memory issues. 

06:30 Tick-borne illness or chronic illness can disrupt your hormonal function. 

08:44 Chemical toxicity is causing effects on the liver, heart and on the brain.

10:08 We have to start looking at what is going on in our environment that’s causing these problems and understand the damages that these chemicals are doing to our people, and to our children. 

12:40 With Lyme disease, there can also be chronic mold toxicity or other infections.

14:19 The best thing that we have is herbs because of their broad spectrum, and using these herbs along with different antimicrobial herbs or antibiotics can be extremely helpful. 

14:52 Treating Lyme is getting much more difficult to treat.

15:49 All kinds of different things to help address that chronic Lyme person.

17:45 Insurance is preventing you from getting the care that you need and you desire.

21:17 Make decisions for yourself on your own health care.

23:29 What are the symptoms of Lyme disease?

Transcript of Episode 191

0:02Welcome to Let’s Talk Wellness Now, I’m your host, Dr. Deb. This is where we talk about everything wellness, and learn to defy aging, and live our lives on our own terms. Welcome back to Let’s Talk Wellness Now, I’m your host, Dr. Deb, I’m so happy to be here with you today. And we’re going to talk about Lyme disease. You know, it isn’t a conversation that people are talking about enough, in my opinion, I think it gets overlooked. And I’m amazed, maybe I shouldn’t even use the word amaze, maybe I should say appalled, because that’s what I actually am. I’m appalled by the number of practitioners that still today will tell patients that Lyme disease doesn’t exist. I don’t know, where they’re being taught that. I don’t know why they believe that. But it saddens me because there are so many people that are going untreated, or are mistreated, simply because somebody doesn’t want to admit that Lyme disease exists in their area, or they were told that we don’t have line in this area. What are you talking about? Why do you believe this? You know, I have been treating Lyme disease for gosh, 20 plus years now. And when I started out, I knew very little about Lyme disease. I knew what it was, but I didn’t knew how much it impacted someone’s life. And I had the luxury of sending all of my patients up to my friend Steve Morris here in Fond du Lac. And I started seeing his Our patients come back and feel so much better and have symptoms that they had been dealing with for decades, some of them start to magically disappear. And it really intrigued me, because I I’m one of those practitioners that I like to know what is going on. I like to know what’s happening. I like to dig I like to figure out those weird cases that other people can’t figure out. At my clinic, we are known as the medical detectives for that reason, because we will keep digging, we’ll keep searching, we will keep trying to find the answers until we find them for you. And, of course, we’re not perfect. Sometimes it’s really hard. And sometimes it takes a long time. And sometimes we just really don’t know we’re like in a loss. And we have to bring in other experts to help us try to figure out what it is we’re missing. But I will tell you that happens very rarely these days, that we can’t figure out what’s going on for someone. But back to the story. So when I was very young in my practice and didn’t know a lot about Lyme disease, I decided to go learn. I went up and met with my friend and watched him practice and listen to him take care of patients. And I remember sitting there just shaking my head going, oh my gosh, I hear this every day. And I’ve been missing it. And by the end of the day, I realized that all of the things his patients were complaining about were things that I had dealt with over the course of about six or seven years and didn’t know what was going on didn’t have a clue. And for those of you who’ve heard me share my story before my medical doctor diagnosed with me with fibromyalgia, and I never had fibromyalgia. I had a thyroid disease. But after learning about Lyme, I also recognized that what I had was a lime infection. And I was living in a house that had black mold. And those three things kind of did me in and no one ever asked me about the house I was living in no one ever asked me about a tick by no one ever asked me about anything in the traditional Western medicine world, and I hear this story quite often from patients where they don’t want to listen. They just simply want to put a bandaid on it. They want to give an antidepressant. They want to give an anti anxiety med they want to

4:57push you aside and say Do what you have going on isn’t physical, it’s somatic, it’s in your head. And I’m going to tell you that in the 10,000 Plus patients that we’ve treated at my office, I don’t know of one that I would say had symptoms that were all in their head, they were making it up. I understand that people that have multiple symptoms, and they sound strange, they sound weird. They don’t make sense. People don’t believe you. I understand where they get labeled as it’s all in your head, or you’re crazy. But I can tell you from all of the practice that I’ve done, that’s not the reality. Can Lyme disease or tick borne disease make you feel crazy? Absolutely it can. It can cause anxiety can cause depression, it can cause brain fog, it can cause memory issues. You know, it can cause a lot of those psychological symptoms, the OCD, learning difficult difficulties, focus concentration issues, it can cause a lot of those things. But that doesn’t mean that that’s what the cause is, it just means it’s a symptom of what’s going on. You know, the other thing that we rarely talk about when it comes to tick borne illness or chronic illness is the fact that these diseases can disrupt your hormonal function. And it is not uncommon for us to see people go into early menopause as a result of having a tick borne illness, or lose their sperm counts and have low testosterone and low growth hormone and in more progressed, advanced aging can happen. These are all symptoms that happen as a result of the tick borne illness. And when the tick borne illness comes in, and takes over the hypothalamus and the pituitary, which are the Divas of our hormonal system, right, they’re up in our brain, they are the Divas, they make us get all of our hormones, and they control everything. Well, they can certainly cause you to have an early decline in your ovarian production. Especially we see this with toxic mold, people who have been exposed to toxic mold for a long time and didn’t know it, they can go into early menopause, it can just disrupt their hormones enough, where they’re having problems with their menstrual cycle, you know, it’s off, if it doesn’t come regularly, it’s heavy, it’s light, it’s a couple of days, and then it’s gone again. And then two weeks later, here, we are bleeding again. And so we have to realize that even though our bodies been parted out into specialties, I let that’s what I usually like to call it, you know, we

8:01have a specialist for everything. And the specialists are grateful for them because they know things about diseases that the rest of us don’t know, because we don’t study that specialty. However, in that same token, when we’re not looking at the body as a whole, it’s very easy to miss something. And if we just think, well, your hormones are just your hormones, and you need to see the endocrinologist or the gynecologist and they’ll know exactly what’s happening with that. That’s not necessarily true, because if they don’t understand that tick borne illness or mold toxicity or chemical toxicities can cause your hormones to be out of balance. Well, then they’ve just missed something. You know, even the chemical toxicity that we’re seeing today, causing effects on the liver and on the heart and on the brain are incredible. I can’t tell you how many people we treat that have fatty liver disease as a result of having an exposure to some kind of chemical in their lifetime that either they worked with or that they came in contact with maybe they were living on a piece of property that was toxic, or they were near a piece of property that was toxic. You know, we’re all hearing right now about the lawsuits with camp la June and Campbell is June is just one of many toxic dumps that our military and their families have been exposed to and the people in those towns have been exposed to. And one thing that we never think of is if I was exposed to that when I was a young woman, and I bore a child on that property, or shortly after living on that property, can my child be affected? And the answer to that is yes, they can depending on where my toxic load was when I was pregnant, I could pass some of those toxicities on to my child. And when we’re looking at numbers of The increased risks of autism reaching one in two by 2030, or 2035, I think it is, we have to start looking at what is going on i...

Are there alternatives to antidepressants and antianxiety medications? The short answer is YES. There are ancient natural compounds available to manage these conditions and potential get rid of them forever. Are you tired of the sexual dysfunction from antidepressants? Natural compounds can manage symptoms and leaving you feeling normal, loving, caring and passionate. Sufferings from PTSD? Compounds like Ketamine can provide the relief that one is looking for. My guest Matt Zemon shares his expertise on using Ketamine a legal psychedelic to provide relief.  

Do not miss these highlights:

07:48 Experience with guided Psilocybin.

08:55 How similar Hiawatha to Psilocybin experience is.

12:24 Just two sessions with MDMA, 67% no longer have a PTSD diagnosis.

13:38 Antidepressants don’t work for everyone, and they seems to have worsening side effects.

16:22 Ketamine for PTSD, pain, depression and anxiety.

19:23 What’s the standard of care for ketamine, and does it have side effects?

22:08 How safe are psychedelics in general?

25:18 Ketamine has proven to be effective in helping curb alcohol and smoking.

26:09 What Psychedelics do in general to your brain. 

30:58 Can someone overdose on a Psychedelic?

35:11 How do people learn more about Psychedelic Medicine?

Transcript of Episode 190

Debra Muth 0:02Welcome to Let’s Talk Wellness Now, I’m your host, Dr. Deb. This is where we talk about everything wellness, and learn to defy aging, and live our lives on our own terms. Welcome back to Let’s Talk Wellness Now, I’m your host, Dr. Deb. And today, we have a little different topic for you something that we haven’t talked about before, something that’s a little controversial in many aspects. But I’m really excited to talk because I think it’s good for us to explore different topics and different things. So we’re actually going to talk today about psychedelic medicine. Now, what the heck is psychedelic medicine, it sounds like it’s a crazy thing. But it’s actually where people micro dose psychedelic drugs to treat various conditions. You know, in ancient times, especially in shamanic, cultures and practices, people use something called Hiawatha, and they would use that to journey to the upper world or the lower world. And it allowed them to break through the problems they had in their mind where they may not be able to connect to their spiritual world. There are some Native American cultures that have used different drugs, things that we call drugs, they call plants and they truly are plants. But in in the culture that we live in today, we call them drugs. And they would use things like that for ceremony. We’re not necessarily talking about the exact same products or materials, but our guest, Matt Zemon. Today is going to talk to us about psychedelics and what are they? Why do people use them? And you know, what to expect when they’re using them. And I think it’s just a great exploration for us to see how do these things work. Now, Matt has finished or I should say, has firsthand information and knowledge about how psychedelics have helped people in different walks of life. And his goal is to normalize the conversation and reduce the stigma. He has a master’s in psychology and neuroscience and mental health. And he has co founded two companies dedicated to improving mental health and well being using the power of legal psychedelics. Now he is launched happy, where he and his team are reimagining mental health and using guided ketamine therapy, Matt loves to share his journey with psychedelics and mental health and the myths and the rumors around psychedelic medicine, and how psychedelics can play a powerful role in the healing connection for both the for both people that choose to use them, and for those who choose not to. And I think this is a conversation worth having, because so much of what we do in mental health today is not effective. You know, people are depressed, they’re anxious, rightfully so for a lot of people. But the medications that we’re using the SSRIs, and the anti anxiety meds don’t normally work for a lot of people, they will feel better, but they won’t feel great. And they will say I don’t feel like myself. And now we have this huge stigma around even anti anxiety meds, things like Lorazepam and clonazepam that had been on the market for years. I mean, we’re talking 25-30 years. valium is another good one. And we have people saying, wait a minute, sorry, you’ve been on this for 15 years. We have a different belief of this today than we had, you know, 10 years ago, 15 years ago, when someone put you on this, you can’t have this anymore. And we’re just stopping people cold turkey on these medications. That is so unfortunate and unfair to that person, because they don’t have an alternative. Nobody’s offering up an alternative for them. And so they’re left with being physically addicted to these medications to being psychologically dependent on them, because that’s what controls their anxiety. And that’s what helps them get through the day and function. And yet, we’re not recognizing,

Debra Muth 4:41nor are we compassionate about what these people are going to go through when we take these medications away from them. And that’s truly the problem that I see in all of the medications that we’re using today. That down the road, the government and the DEA He is going to claim that you can’t use this anymore because of these different reasons. So, without further ado, I’m gonna bring my guest on Matt and we are going to chat all about how psychedelics are working today. Have you seen 20 Plus medical doctors only to be told your symptoms are in your head, or you need an antidepressant? We understand your frustrations. Are you tired of feeling sick and tired? Tired of not getting the answers you need to regain your health, tired of not feeling listened to by your doctor at Serenity Health Care Center, we understand and we will help you find the cause of your symptoms.

I know Zeeman that is it. All right. There we go. Well, welcome to the show. I’m so excited to have you here today we have an interesting conversation to talk about. And tell us a little bit about yourself and how you got involved in this.

Matt Zemon 6:58I’m happy to do that. And it’s it’s I’ve been looking forward to this conversation and Dr. Deb, you have such a, you have a unique audience. And then the challenges that they work through, I think ties right into what we’re going to talk about today. So I appreciate you having me on. Yeah, I’m kind of an accidental psychonaut a few years ago, I’m almost four now, I had the chance to do a guided psilocybin experience that really just changed my worldview. And that led me to going back to school to get a master’s in psychology and neuroscience into really doing a deep dive into the world of psychedelic medicine, which then I realized, okay, there’s a lot of stuff out there, but it’s it’s either hard to read, it’s too opinionated, or it’s too woowoo. And I wanted to create a book that was kind of for everybody to read. And that’s where psychedelics where everyone came from.

Debra Muth 7:46Oh, that’s awesome. Tell us about your guided What did you call it? Because I haven’t heard that term before.

Matt Zemon 7:53It’s a psilocybin is it’s the it’s the active ingredient in magic mushrooms. So that’s, that’s probably how you know, it’s yeah, it was it was um, I wasn’t a big drinker. I really wasn’t. I tried cannabis a few times. It just wasn’t my thing. And some, some really trusted friends said hey, why don’t you come do this guided magic mushroom journey with us? I was like, I don’t know, I’m not sure like what you like...

Transcript of Episode 189

Debra Muth 0:02Welcome to Let’s Talk Wellness Now, I’m your host, Dr. Deb, this is where we talk about everything wellness, and learn to defy aging, and live our lives on our own terms. Welcome back to Let’s Talk on this show. I’m your host, Dr. Deb, and I want to talk to you about happiness. You know, there’s a lot of craziness that’s going on in the world today. And finding true happiness can be such a challenge for so many of us, let alone maintaining it, as one goes on. And I think we don’t talk enough about happiness and how to embrace it and keep it going. And what is it all taken? And certainly, what does happiness mean? Right? Happy news to one person can mean something completely different to another person, and understanding where happiness comes from and how do we grab onto it? How do we hold on to it? You know, I’ve watched many people over the years of being in practice, who have been chronically ill, because of an unhappy situation that they were living in, or they had growing up as a child, and they weren’t able to release that. And it embeds into our core and cells in who we are. And it can make us sick. And we don’t know that until we can get out of that situation that’s making us unhappy, and then all of a sudden, we become Well, the problem I find with that, though, is, once that happens, it’s so easy to get trapped into that unhappy lifestyle again, or you get into a new relationship, that’s not exactly the way you want it to be. And our body and our minds go back to those old habits and those old ways and, and they just cause us to be sick again, and cause us to struggle. I’ve watched for many years, even my own mother who’s unhappy, reflecting back into her childhood, and how she really didn’t have a childhood. Many, many people of her era, you know, didn’t have the childhood that they would have wanted. I know it was back in an era where you were seen and not heard. Many children were raised as maids and slaves to be honest and be cruel, and talking exactly what it is, you know, they cleaned the house and did the laundry and did the dishes and did the shopping and worked. They didn’t have that playful, wonderful childhood that so many of us have been gifted to have today. And as a result of that, they’re angry as they get older, and they’re resentful, and they’ve missed out on a lot. And they don’t know how to get past that. And I think in having that struggle, and not being able to make peace with that or forgive. For not having that life. It’s it’s hard and it’s painful. And it leads to depression and anxiety and learning how to make peace with those times and learning to forgive for the life that you you have that wasn’t necessarily what you wanted. If so, so important and critical to finding happiness and finding peace and being able to create the life that you want. Today my guest that I’m going to bring to you, Alice Inoue I’m probably saying her name very very wrong. So we’ll give her an opportunity to tell us how she pronounces it is a happiness guru and she is an author, a life expert. She’s the founder of happiness you she’s an astrologer, and I can’t wait to bring you in to meet her so that you guys can hear exactly from her what it’s like to find happiness. So without further ado, I’m going to bring her in right now. Have you seen 20 Plus medical doctors only to be told your symptoms are in your head or you need an antidepressant?

Alice Inoue 5:57Alice Inoue

Debra Muth 6:00okay. So Alice, I’m so glad to have you here. We were chatting just before we hit the record button about happiness, and the struggle that so many people have today in our world and the craziness of life that goes on. And you are a happiness experts. So I’m so glad to have you here to talk and give us some tips on how do we find happiness? How do we get over happiness? But before we do that, tell us a little bit about yourself and how you got into all of this. Yeah,

Alice Inoue 6:33it’s interesting because the name of our company is Happiness U and it’s the letter you and I kind of thought it would be cool University where we learn happiness to just you and what is happiness? And it’s such an odd thing. You think that how can you have a business where you’re teaching that But going back to how I got into it, I didn’t. I didn’t grow up happy contrary to what many people think many people think, Oh, you were born happy, happy parents, and you just live this wonderful life and so awesome that you just gave birth to this idea of Happiness U know, when the opposite is true. I I think I know that my path was meant to do this simply because I started out so unhappy. I added that a negative default, like I just remember not smiling in any pictures, grumpy all the time, just feeling like life wasn’t the way I want it to be. I wanted better at different parents, different lifestyles, everything I wanted was not available to me. And as a consequence, I focused so much on the reality that I saw, which is the lack of what I wanted, that I ended up really just developing really, emotional disorders, mental disorders, like just by me and I was 40 pounds heavier, I ate two, two for my happiness. But then that made me more unhappy because I just didn’t like how I felt and look. So it was just this quagmire of just achiness. Until one day, it’s kind of like we have these defining moments where I was in I was 21 years old, I was in a college class Close to close to graduation. And back then we didn’t have text messages. It was an early 80s. And somebody wrote a note. Do you? Are you ever happy? Do you...

Transcript of Episode 188

0:02Welcome to Let’s Talk Wellness Now, I’m your host, Dr. Deb. This is where we talk about everything wellness, and learn to defy aging and live our lives on our own terms. Welcome back to Let’s Talk Wellness Now I’m your host, Dr. Deb. And today we’re going to talk about essential medicines that come from flowering plants. Did you know that 11% of the WHO List of 252 essential medicines were from flowering plants, professor, Dr. City, and I’m going to not say this name properly Vera Sham, wrote in a 2012 paper nature, the master craftsman created almost an index array of molecular entities. It is an infinite resource for drug development, novel chemo types and pharmacophores that can create efficacious drugs for many diseases and other bio active agents. I think this is really interesting, because you know, we’ve been talking about plant based medicines for 1000s of years. In the alternative world, we use a lot of plants to treat different conditions. And we now finally have somebody saying, look, the majority of our plants have come or the the majority of medicines have come from plants for a very long time. And they’re very useful. And they’re admitting that these things have power, and they can actually do things. Now unfortunately, they will say that they need to be manipulated in order to be effective, but that’s not the case. So let’s go on and talk a little bit more about this study that was produced. Dr. O’Meara spent most of his career scouring nature for useful molecules. ivermectin was just one of the many drugs he actually discovered. It was used to treat river blindness, elephantitis, and flavor viruses along with tick borne encephalitis, dengue fever, a lot of different things. Now, I’ve been treating tick borne diseases. for about 18 years now. ivermectin has been one of the medications that we have used for a very long time in treating tick borne illnesses, using it very safely, very effectively, with very minimal complications from it. So this is really interesting to read some of his research as it’s come out. It’s also been demonstrated to be a broad spectrum inhibitor against several RNA viruses by blocking viral proteins. It’s also been shown to have a potent antiviral action against HIV one. Yes, honestly, HIV, this is not in the mainstream. Now, this is a study that goes back to 2012. And we can assume that he is known about this much longer than that. And I remember many years ago, and you’ve those of you who listen to me, you’ve heard me say this before. There’s many things that we’ve used that we didn’t understand were antiviral until the whole COVID flare up. And now we’re starting to realize that a lot of the drugs that we thought were antibacterial or anti parasitical, actually have antiviral properties to them. And that’s why when we treat patients with ivermectin and doxycycline, and is that through myosin and some of these other meds for different conditions, they don’t get typical flu viruses or they don’t get typical colds because they have that antiviral component to them.

3:54So ivermectin is very inexpensive and with a top safety profile obtained from ready for this one guys. 250 million doses given annually for decades, yes, 250 million doses, given annually for decades. And this is why Monash decided to investigate it for the possibility against COVID. And until recently, plants were an important source of novel pharmacological activity, compounds with many blockbuster drugs, being derived directly or indirectly from plants. And despite the current preoccupation with synthetic chemistry as a vehicle to discover and manufacture drugs, the contribution of plants to disease treatment and prevention is still enormous. Even at the dawn of the 21st century. 11% of the 252 essential drugs on the WH o database come from plants. This is a really big because when we talk about plants being our medicine or food being medicine, this is actually true in the conventional world, it’s just that the majority of the practitioners prescribing these drugs do not realize that they came from plant sources to begin with. It’s just very simple that way. Now, up to 50% of the approved drugs during the last 30 years are from either directly or indirectly from natural products and in an area of cancer over the timeframe from about the 1940s to date of the 175 small molecules 85 actually being either natural products or directly derived from a natural plant or product. You know, the history of plant medicine has been available to us for 1000s of years. The plant derived compounds have a long history of clinical use, better patient tolerance and acceptance. And to date 35,000 to 70,000 different plant species have been screened for medicinal use. This is a lot of plants, and a lot of plants that could turn into potential drugs down the road. Now we want to remember that a natural substance cannot be patented. So if it cannot be patented, how do we get it to be a drug? Well, let’s talk about that a little bit. So there’s a study thumb from fabricant and Farnsworth from 2001. And they reported that 80% of 122, plant derived drugs were related to their original ethnopharmacological purposes. And current practices for creating medicines for plants work by isolating a specific molecule. This is how they’re allowed to patent it, they can isolate a particular molecule inside the plant, extract that out and say, This is the active ingredient, this is what’s actually working. Now, we all know

7:10that that’s not true. When you have a plant, a plant comes with a lot of different properties, and a lot of different chemical compounds. They were derived in nature to work a very specific way, when you manipulate that, and you remove one active compound from it and say, here’s the saving grace, here’s the here’s the ingredient that works, but the rest of the plant doesn’t really matter. God doesn’t work that way, right, he creates everything for a reason. And so that’s why when we extract things out, we can have more side effects, we can have more complications, we can have new diseases occur, because we thought we were smarter than God, and that plant has a complete compound in itself intact. But when we manipulate that it’s no longer intact. Many of our cancer drugs have been derived from plant based substances using this very specific process. Now, the first pure, commercially made drug from plants now pure meaning in its whole form, nothing manipulated, was actually morphine. And that was created back in 1826. The next semi synthetic drug was produced by bear and that was aspirin in 1899. And we say it’s a semi synthetic drug because it’s not completely taken from its whole, it’s been manipulated. Now, these drugs actually lead to other compounds from nature being isolated and created into early drugs such as cocaine, codeine, digitoxin, quinine, and pilocarpine. And which some are still in use today. And several other recent plant derived chemicals or compounds have undergone development and have been marketed as drugs, which include perhaps the tussle and taxes for lung and ovarian as well as breast cancer Artemesia, which is from a traditional Chinese plant Artemi Xion or Artemesia, you’ll call them two different things are used to combat multi drug resistant malaria, and you can buy artemisia or Artemisian as a whole plant instead of taking it as a commercially available drug. silymarin, which is also known as known as milk thistle in our world was extracted from the seeds of Silybum and for the treatment of liver diseases, so we will often use milk thistle or silly margarine to help clear toxins from the liver to help get rid of excess hormones from the liver. If somebody’s liver is struggling to clear toxins, we will give them silymarin or milk thistle as well. You can also use this to help you sleep. A lot of times when people wake in the middle of the night between one and three o’clock, it’s because their liver is dumping toxins. And when it does that, it can struggle sometimes. And so if you take silymarin or milk thistle at night before you go to bed, becau...

Are you tired of Mammogram? Breast thermograms can show you inflammatory conditions prior to disease. Worried about blood clots, stroke and heart disease? 

Do not miss these highlights:

00:19 What is Thermography and how it works in our body.

02:44 Thermography allows us to see changes in breast tissue much sooner than Mammogram.

05:17 If you do not want to follow conventional standards, Thermograms can guide how natural therapies are working and help to determine the changes in those treatment plans.

05:29 How thermograms can be used to detect disease early.

06:55 How Dental Thermography works.

07:47 Some of the most common signs and symptoms of a disease.

09:15 Thermography uses the body’s sympathetic nervous system. So it’s a reliable way of monitoring immune function, as well as a reliable way to monitor the response of treatment and rehab over days.

10:47 Thermography can be used to determine exactly where to place the needles to reduce the pain and can be used to identify problems with stiffness, pain and inflammation.

11:26 Stress fractures can be identified by seeing a hypothalamic pattern on the bones, even long-term fractures or tears can be seen by Thermography.

12:33 The indication that there is a regional pain syndrome going on.

16:33 Thermography is a great tool to detect disease. It should be our first-line therapy, not the last resort.

17:18 Find a thermography practice or practitioner in your area and make sure they only use a medical grade Thermography camera.

Transcript of Episode 187

0:02Welcome to Let’s Talk Wellness Now, I’m your host, Dr. Deb. This is where we talk about everything wellness, and learn to defy aging and live our lives on our own terms. Welcome back to Let’s Talk Wellness Now I’m your host, Dr. Deb and today I want to talk about Thermography. Thermography is a non-invasive pain and radiation-free monitoring of the body for various conditions. It’s best known for use and it’s breast management. And some related disorders we can monitor are things like arthritis, dental inflammation or infection, thyroid conditions, chronic nerve injury complex regional pain syndrome, also known as RSD, fibromyalgia thrombosis, which is a blood clot, fractures, pain, referred pain, soft tissue injuries, Fortune injuries, muscle-skeletal syndromes and diabetes. Thermography is used to identify inflammatory conditions prior to disease, and it can be used to assess treatment outcomes, assessing and staging of various dysfunctions. It is unique in its qualitative and quantitative assessment and helps to monitor the progression of disease. You see, the human body is thermally symmetrical, and our normal heat or thermal patterns are constant and repeatable topology, which will cause synthetic change in most instances. And these thermal differences can be seen on digital infrared thermal imaging, also known as DITI D I T I. And it’s a highly sensitive and totally non-invasive clinical imaging procedure for objectively detecting and monitoring many injuries and conditions in the human body. Because the human body is thermally symmetrical meaning the same, we can use comparative views left to right to detect physiological dysfunction. Clinical thermography is just a simple test of physiology that lies on the sympathetic nervous system to breathe out the bad skin, and blood vessels and the ability of the sympathetic system to respond and react to pathology anywhere in the body. It is controlled by the central nervous system and pathology is seen in long strips of skin called Dermatoids, and digital thermography of the breast takes only about five minutes and is a valuable tool for alerting your healthcare practitioner to changing conditions in your breast way before it becomes apparent on film or on a mammogram. It notices those symmetrical colors and the breast images change.

3:06It’s possible to see active cancer cells double in the patient under the age of 50. We noticed that cancer cells may be present for eight years prior to the mammogram, detecting it thermography allows this visualization of changes much sooner than that. So typically, you will see changes in thermography. Seven to 10 years sooner than what you’ll be able to detect in mammogram. Mammogram has gotten very good at detecting very small conditions. But with thermography, what we’re actually detecting is that inflammatory change underneath the breast tissue that occurs long before tumors set in, so we can see those changes relatively quickly by using thermography. If we monitor the breasts that have a condition present, every three to six months, we’ll be able to see that change much faster, and it’ll look like a hot or a warm area. Oftentimes breast cancer loves to develop in that upper outer quadrant of the breast. So when we see those changes, and they’re different from side to side, and it’s warm, it’s it’s orange or red or white, white is our hottest color. We already know that there’s something going on in that area. Now, by using thermography. We can start mammograms earlier or if the mammogram doesn’t detect anything, we can push for breast MRI, which can detect things even sooner and smaller areas than mammogram can. Typically, breast MRIs are not covered by insurance unless there’s a very strong family history or a personal history of breast cancer. However using demography See if we could push to get that covered sooner if there was something that was going on that we were concerned about, and we could prove that it was happening multiple times over. So, once the something can be identified, it can be biopsied and then it can be addressed. If people do not want to follow conventional standards thermograms can guide how natural therapies are working and help to determine that change in those treatment plans. demography can show indicators several months before any clinical changes are seen, like I had mentioned, especially in inflammatory breast disease, we will see split discoloration, swelling or pain and inflammatory breast disease cannot be detected by mammogram. And it’s most commonly seen in younger women. The prognosis is very poor because it can’t have early detection in mammogram, like other breast cancers can and 1% of the breast cancers are found in men, the survival rate is much lower in men than there is in women simply because of early detection. And by the time male breast cancer is identified, it’s already in an advanced stage. Now the skin is an organ and has specific regions called dermatomes. That through the autonomic nervous system relate to every internal organ and structure and images can be seen showing hyperthermic asymmetry over the left lower chest indicating coronary artery disease even. And if there’s a decreased blood flow to the heart, it typically reflects in a blue circle. So as we’re doing breast thermography, we can see some of these cardiac stages as well. When we’re looking at dental thermography abscess teeth can be seen via a red and white inflammation around the mouth or the gum tissue. And it’s possible to see dental inflammation that even your dentist cannot detect by visualization or X ray. I’ve sent many patients to the dentist for things that we’ve seen on thermography. And the dentist takes an x ray and they can’t find anything. When the patient shows them their thermography the dentist confirms that there is something going on in that tooth, even though they can’t see it. We typically see a lot of this when there’s root canals involved. And oftentimes there can be infection underneath the root canal harboring, which can cause problems, you might not even feel pain, but that’s low grade infection that is infecting your body and causing you to be ill.

7:47In the case of low back pain, this is really interesting because there can be referred pain that comes from different areas, we can see inflammation in the abdomen, indicating that there might be kidney dermatomes that are infected, which can cause refer back pain. We can also see neuropathy that is due to pinched off nerves in the spine. Those are also common things that we can see. Now the legs are really interesting to look at too because we see varicose veins, nerve and circulatory issues from our thermal imaging. And when these are identified, vascular interventions can be done with minimally non invasive procedures and when people have had pain for many years, and other methods of testing have not identified the reason for their discomfort. Oftentimes, the thermogram can indicate something different because it detects that inflammatory condition that appears seven to 10 years before disease can actually set in and our traditional imaging can see it. I had a patient who had knee and leg pain for over three years, but had a full range of conventional testing. And nothing was found they even did a nerve conduction study Wait, mg could not find anything wrong with the leg that was causing the pain. thermographic study confirmed the diagnosis of phlebitis. And you know thermal thermography uses body’s sympathetic nervous system. So we can see all of these different things. It’s the control of the skin’s blood flow is a window into that autonomic nervous system. And a compromised immune system can also be seen on thermography by looking at a distinct area over the spine called T1 and T2 which is at the top of the spine or at the base of the neck, and it’ll look like a giant big blue bullseye. And that indicates to us that there’s an un...

August was a busy month, the research is clear and we are vindicated! 

Do not miss these highlights:

1:08 What mistakes they actually made.

05:27 Rochelle walensky ,CDC director came out and stated that the CDC made large mistakes and that they needed to own these mistakes.

05:55 Immune Imprinting – What does this mean?

06:48 The three false claims of the vaccine program

12:19 The vaccines did more harm than good in the original randomized trials.

16:50 No one is to blame. No one can or will be held accountable. 

19:11 All these key players (companies) are truly in bed with one another, they’re moving to other companies for money and cover up.

23:27 The first paper on Coronavirus was published back in 1997 by Rolf Barrack, and his life’s work is studying Coronaviruses. But yet he’s been the quietest person in the last two years. 

26:16 Both of the monoclonal antibodies and the vaccine approaches have failed to neutralize and protect the infection of the Coronavirus using the novel spike protein.

28:55 The issue of having the vaccine storage from sub-zero temperature to normal refrigeration? 

30:10 Recent Zogby survey says that 15% of people who took the vaccine are left with medical issues.

Transcript of Episode 186

Welcome back to Let’s Talk Wellness Now I’m your host, Dr. Deb. It has been a busy month in August for news. I know we’re a couple of weeks into September already. So preparing this for you. It’s a little delayed and some of you may have heard this already, but I wanted to put. Everything together in one place.

So you had an up to date idea of what’s actually going on things in the sea world. Our changing relatively quickly, Rochelle Walensky our CDC director came out and stated that the CDC made large mistakes and that they needed to own these mistakes. This is incredible for the CDC to come out and actually admit that they made some mistakes in how they’re managing a pandemic.

So let’s talk about what mistakes they actually made. It was clear that the advice from the CDC was erratic, inconsistent, and dictatorial. How can I call it dictatorial? Well, I can say this because of the mass mandates for flying on planes. It actually took a federal judge in Florida to rule that the CDC cannot tell Americans to wear masks on airplane.

Now, I know some of you listeners are going to argue that there was nothing bad about that. It kept us flying. Honestly, if you had to be six feet apart in a grocery store or a doctor’s office, how was it that sitting arm and arm with a stranger on a plane was gonna keep you from getting sick? People need to have some common sense in all of.

truth be told the CDC should have never given any advice or guidance on contagion control. Contagion control is in the realm of healthcare providers who look after patients. There was no evidence to support public masking or hand sanitizing or social distancing distancing. None of it. Now, hand sanitizing.

Totally normal, right? In any cold or flu season, we talk about washing your hands using hand sanitizer, you know, just doing safe, normal, common sense practices, right. But the social distancing made absolutely no sense. And there was no science put behind it at all. The CDC never should have given guidance.

On emergency use authorized vaccines. The CDC establishes the general childhood vaccine schedule. Which many of us question why they have that authority too? They are way outta their league on both of these endeavors and boy, what a disaster it was for America so far within just a few days of all of this, the CDC came out with its new guidance, basically utilizing Dr.

Peter McCullough’s five COVID truths and lined up. Most of the recent CDC guidelines to his five COVID truths. This is astonishing. They’re actually using Dr. Peter McCullough’s research and common sense to put forth the latest guidance. Basically the five COVID truth is that we respect carrying the virus there’s or sorry, with respect to carrying the virus.

There’s no difference between fully vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals. They’re indistinguishable from one another. They carry the virus at the same viral loads and are equally contagious. They get the infection with the equal Prolo pro. Sorry, proclivity. And at this point there’s absolutely no scientific support or any form of a mandate on someone taking a vaccine.

Now, this is really an important point because we’re starting to see hospital systems, revoke religious exemptions and medical exemptions saying that they have expired and that they’re only good for a year. And they’re going back and forcing people to take the jab in order to hold their job again.

Now in Denmark, they’ve already come out and said, this can’t be, they’re not giving the vaccine to children under the age of 18. And they are also mandating that no employer can mandate an experimental use authorization vaccine on any person in their country. We’re seeing the same thing in Costa Rica and it’s starting to come forward in other European countries as well.

The US is the only country that still is allowing forced vaccination on people in order to work, which is completely against your constitutional right. The British medical journal and others are now reporting that nine out of 10 people that die with COVID are double and triple vaccinated.

So now the head of the CDC was reported saying, oh, sorry, we got it wrong. We also see Berg saying, oh, well, you know, we knew it. Wasn’t going to. and others. And I believe that the CDC is trying to get out in front of this scandal. That’s coming, that they backed the COVID vaccine. That was not doing what it was supposed to do and what the American people were told it was going to do.

There are two papers in 2021, led by author Wheatley, which had the title immune imprint. What this means is that the vaccines were given every six months exposing the body to the exact same obsolete antigen with spike protein. This turned out to be an immunological disaster. What happened was the body’s immune system was trained and this trained to this high exposure of antigen concentrated in critical organs and tissues.

And then it was ultimately misdirected. So when the infection actually happened, especially in frail and vulnerable people, there were higher rates of hospitalization and death in the fully vaccinated. In Ontario, they now have data that nine out of 10 people who are dying with COVID 19 are fully vaccinated.

And we have to remember there have been three false claims of the vaccine program. The first false claim was the vaccine stopped infection. If you took the shot, you couldn’t get it. And that quickly eroded after we saw thousands of breakthrough cases that were reported through 2021, the CDC actually gave up on this in may of 2021, where they basically said we’re not gonna follow breakthrough cases anymore.

There’s too many of them. So there fell their first flaw, the second false. Was that the vaccines basically blocked transmission. So if you took it, you wouldn’t infect someone else. And that obviously became a false statement in summer of 2021. When the reality hit that stopping transmission was not working, people transmit the virus.

Whether you’re fully vaccinated or not. The virus packs amongst each other during weddings, cruise boats, Naval ships, and all kinds of one-on-one gatherings as well. The last false claim was that if you took the vaccine, there’s a consolation prize, you will have a milder case and you won’t be hospitalized or die.

Now this is just ridiculous. No one can determine how sick you’ll get. Or if you’ll get hospitalized or even die, never in our history of vaccination. Have we ever told people that if you took a vaccine, something like chickenpox, you won’t get it, or you won’t die. But many people were grateful to have the vaccine because they believed it was going to save their lives.

And unfortunately it didn’t, and it hasn’t. There’s never been a prospective randomized trial with hospitalization and death as a primary endpoint, where that was reduced by vaccines. The only two interventions that reduced hospitalization and death are having the illness first, where you had natural immunity and receiving early treatment for the virus, there was.

Series of fraudulent studies that didn’t account for natural immunity in early treatment, claiming that the vaccinated had lower rates of hospitalization. There were a whole series of fraudulent papers claiming. That the fully vaccinated had lower rates of hospitalization and death, but the data is now pouring in from Canada, UK, Israel, Europe, South Africa, and Australia clearly showing when they account for those who have been fully vaccinated, that indeed the fully vaccinated are doing far worse with COVID 19 than those who were unvaccinated.

Excuse me.

The other news bombshell in August was that the national allergy immun immunology, infectious disease branch director, a division director, Dr. Anthony Fauci. Who ascended to a much higher level of power than his NIH position ever. Granted him announced his retirement or he’s stepping down. I looked at his announcement on the NIH website and I was astonished to find that this kind of self congratulatory departure notice had no mention of COVID 19.

Yeah. You heard me right? There is no mention of COVID. His own signature program. So you have to think about this. This was his super bowl of his career, and there is absolutely no mention of the COVID 19 program that he put together recently, the new COVID 19 Valence boosters are coming out. And these really deserve an explanation this week.

The US FDA with no human trials. That is actually what I said, no human data. Only relying on the manufacturers, giving them animal data or rodent data, showing the antibody rise in mice models of antibodies against a common segment of BA four BA five spike protein. The FDA inly of proved this new. So Pfizer has had plenty of time to do a trial.

And did you know that investigational drug trial application for Pfizer for this new vaccine was filed on August 22nd? There has been absolutely no review by the FDA. They are just green lighting, everything right. This is extremely unprecedented, that they have had plenty of time to do large randomized trials.

They’ve been in the midst of BA four and five with this secondary wave for months. And they had plenty of time to do these randomized trials. They’ve had tons of money, but they don’t wanna do the trials because they know their previous shots are actually killing people. The very first set of trials, which had been done have been now critically analyzed by Peter Joshi at the university of Maryland and Joseph Friedman down in Louisiana at LSU.

And their conclusion in the peer reviewed paper is even from the original trials when we actually get all the safety data and the efficacy. The vaccines did more harm than good in the original randomized trials. Then it plays out in the public space, you know, under court order, Pfizer had to release their dossier, but the judge and the lawyer for the FDA tried to block this from Americans for 55 years.

What is it in their dossier that Pfizer knew about that? They didn’t want any of us to know? Well, it’s the 1,223 deaths within 30 days of release of their vaccine is what they don’t want us to know. This is unprecedented. This is prima fascia evidence that the FDA is involved in. The safety cover up for the Pfizer recently, and the Moderna documents.

They’re basically approving these on their face value without any evidence or studies of safety or ethic. While families were calling Pfizer saying my loved one just died with your vaccine. Pfizer was dutifully recording all of these deaths and they had hired hundreds of employees to man, the phones as these deaths poured in.

It’s astonishing that Pfizer didn’t shut it down after a handful of deaths or at least 50 deaths. The threshold for death trial is 20. No more than it’s pulled. I ask why was this not pulled? Why is it still on the market with over 14,000 deaths reported to bears to date? And that’s only 1% of the reported cases, cuz we’re well aware of the studies that show people do not report to bears many people before this pandemic, even in the healthcare space, did not even know about the fairs data.

And had no clue how to report and they’ve never had to report. If you’ve ever had to report, it takes hours. It takes a minimum of an hour and a half to two hours to document everything you’re assigning that you. Know that if you falsify this information, it can be punishable under federal law and you can go to prison.

You have to have the lot number and the expiration date of the drug and the vaccine as well. Otherwise it gets kicked back. So after all of your time, It could be for not because the VAERS database could still come back and say, we don’t believe that this was a reaction. Yeah. And we’re gonna move this along and not put it in our records.

I’ve actually had that happen a couple of times when I’ve tried to report something to the VAERS database. So why now are they doubling down with this super booster? Is it all just a test to see what they can get away? This is clearly a test to see what they can get away with. And if the FDA is going to shield them from any public outrage.

And it’s interesting because Albert Bourla, the CEO of Pfizer is going on CNN and other news outlets, advising Americans to take more of the conventional boosters and now the bivalent boosters. And no one’s ever asked him a question. You have 223 deaths within 30 days on your. What are you doing about that?

What is happening? They should have been shut down and the media should be asking this question. All this data is now being suppressed by social media and news channels. We are being censored for speaking out about these studies and our licenses are being attacked. Our own world council for health, which has put out a whole variety of cautionary warnings over the last two years, came out on June 11th stating after publishing their pharmaco.

Report that they looked at VAERS and the UK yellow card system, the Trudeau system in the EU, and there’s over 40,000 certified deaths that have happened within a few days of taking these shots. There are millions of serious safety reports and the world health council for health says. Pull them off the market.

They’re unsafe for human use. And this is very important. This is a worldwide body. They represent 70 individual organizations across the world. They have put out a series of cautionary warnings stating if you can’t get in safety and get them off the market, then. So relatively they’re saying, if you can’t produce a safe product, you need to pull it.

It can’t be used. And here’s the important point in this as Pfizer and Moderna and other vaccine suppliers continue to push these vaccines. What are we going to see? Is a huge giant finger pointing exercise in the end, Pfizer’s going to say, listen, the FDA never told us to pull it. The FDA and the CDC are running the vaccine program, the FDA and the CDC are going to say, listen, it’s Pfizer’s product.

And they had the responsibility to make sure it was safe from the beginning. This means that no one is to. No one can or will be held accountable unlike in vaccine court, because these injections are not truly vaccines. Can’t take your case to the vaccine court. They are also considered experimental and they have never been approved by the FDA.

The only FDA approved shot is commonary, which is not available in the us. The vaccine sponsors, CDC and FDA are saying no more legacy boosters. So remember Pfizer was 30 micrograms initially second shot, 30 micrograms, and every six months 30 micrograms. And there was no change for Moderna Moderna was a hundred micrograms.

With a hundred microgram booster. The new bivalent booster for Pfizer is 30 micrograms made up of 15 micrograms of the original, which is now obsolete and 15 micrograms of BA5 new genetic code Moderna booster is not a hundred micrograms like it used to be. It’s only 50 micrograms, 25 micrograms of original and 25 micrograms of The Omicron variant.

Now my takeaway is that they’re going to get less of the super toxic, original Wuhan spike protein with these boosters, and they’re going to be cutting the power. So we don’t see as many illnesses. But in the BA5 additive, we have no research in humans. So we have no idea what we may see as side effects or death rates.

It’s going to be less toxic spike protein exposure since Omciron is a milder virus. But I think the boosters are going to, in a sense, take the edge off of some of the safety tension, but so much of the damage is already. Now we’re fighting between Moderna and Pfizer Moderna was a three times stronger vaccine or shot than Pfizer.

And now they’re suing Pfizer saying they copied their vaccine mixture. Now this is really an interesting development because Moderna’s CEO, Stéphane Bancel a billionaire was the CEO for BioMérieux and BioMérieux is the French conglomerate company that Jacque Shrock negotiated with the Chinese to build. And they built the biosecurity annex in Wuhan, China to defend Paynesville and orchestrated the construction of the biosecurity lab in Wuhan, China.

And then in 2015 key changes from bioMérieux and he joins a one person company. So the CEO of BioMérieux joins a one person company in Cambridge, Massachusetts. All these key players are truly in bed with one another, and I believe they’re moving to other companies for money and cover up. Now Barnes joins Moderna and he starts working with the us national Institute of health on Moderna’s patent for SARS COV2 vaccine.

And within a few days of announcing that we have a pandemic, we have an emergency under former president Trump’s Declaration Moderna announces that they have a vaccine. Now you don’t come up with a vaccine in a few days. These vaccines were in the works for years. And in Peter Reagan’s book, COVID 19 in the global predators, which I would highly recommend you read.

It has over 1100 citations in the back is a timeline and that timeline. 36 pandemic planning, preparedness events that Reagan Chronicles, six of these pandemics were filmed and all of them have written documents. The courage to face COVID 19, which is a book authored by Dr. Peter McCullough and John Lee.

Highlight these developments as well. And they put it in the context of a story and a timeline of events from 1995. When the first coronavirus study was published, there are papers in the peer reviewed literature from 2015 with American names. On the paper and there is one Chinese name in the whole list of authors and it is Dr.

Shi Zhengli. She’s also known as the bat lady. So when people say this is an American made virus, that is correct. It is an American made virus. We just needed the lab in China to do the work. This paper is from the university of North Carolina chapel. And there’s an Institute in Switzerland and Harvard and the title of the paper is SARS.

Like virus. It’s published in the proceedings of the national academy of sciences controversy in 2015. This is not a secret people. This is not a secret paper it’s been there for a while. This study actually indicates an ongoing threat poised by Wuhan Institute of virology, one related virus. The need for continued study and surveillance are saying the viruses we’ve made in this lab has endangered the world.

This is a very high level level paper that could be trusted. We don’t need to depose people in front of the Senate. You just need to read these papers. There’s one in nature of medicine. That’s what’s so crazy. What so Fauci says is, I don’t know what gain of function is. He’s lying. His work is funded by the national institutes of health.

He indicates that the national Institute of health was approved again. And Vinet Materi is working for Ralph Baric in North Carolina, chapel hill. Again, these people are all in bed with each other. They’re all trying to hide something much bigger than a viral pandemic. The first paper on coronavirus was published back in 1997 by Ralph Baric

and this is his life work is studying coronaviruses, but yet he’s been the quietest person in the last two years. The team is again from North Carolina, chapel hill, Harvard, the Institute of Switzerland and the Wuhan Institute of virology and Shi Zhengli, the bat lady, she is involved in studying these papers with many American authors.

There’s only one to two Chinese authors on these papers and the rest are all Americans. So again, this is an American project. They needed the Chinese lab to do it because they have the technology and they have the. But this was originally done here. The title of the paper, a SARS like cluster of circulating bat coronaviruses shows potential for human emergence.

They made a humanized respiratory epithelial in a rodent, and they kept tweaking the spike protein in order to get it to invade a human respiratory epithelial for weaponizing. It was a weapon at the same. They’re working on an answer at the same time that they were creating the weapon. They’re working on a killed vaccine and they’re working on monoclonal antibodies.

That can be the savior. I don’t think we have biological agencies or operations through the NIH right? Isn’t that what Fauci is saying? But here in this paper, it’s actually showing that there is biological operations that have been happening for a very long time in this country. Now there’s two departments that monitor this.

There’s BARDA the biomedical advanced research and development authority. And this is the unit. Through the United States. And then we have the military department, which is DARPA, they’re the defense advanced research projects agency. And they work on a threat and they also work on an answer. We’ve had smallpox monkeypox programs.

And now after this, we have SARS and obviously there’s a SARS program. There’s been an anthrax program and. Luckily for us, bill gates, can’t keep his mouth shut. So a year before he star a year before the monkeypox outbreak, he starts ordering the monkey P’s vaccine and he says, it’s coming. And then right on time, it rolls out.

So all we have to do is really track what these people are. They’re giving it all away to us. We are just not grasping everything they’re saying, because we don’t think like they do. So the both of the monoclonal antibodies and the vaccine approaches have failed to neutralize and protect the infection of the coronavirus using the novel spike protein, both VARDA and DARPA are under the NIH, which monitor smallpox monkeypox SARS and the anthrax program.

And because they’ve been working on this for so long, they knew that a dead virus was not going to kill the virus at hand, meaning SARS in an abstract in nature medicine in 2015. They already showed that monoclonal antibodies didn’t work. This is prima fascia evidence that the us government academic program that’s gone bad along with Americans, you know, 10 million Americans were hospitalized.

And with this, a million people have lost their lives in our country. From this us operation. This is very sad for us to be sitting here today, talking about this. So now we’re entering into phase two. There’s been two wave of injury. First was SARS Cove, one largely the wild type. Alpha and Delta break outbreaks.

The Omicron outbreak was very, very low hospitalization and death rates. And in fact, Omicron is indistinguishable from the common cold, but people did lose their lives with this first multiple outbreaks. Now the vaccine programs have been cooking along. And according to Dr. Peter McCullough, the vaccine itself was created a wave of destruction in our country with injuries, disabilities, and deaths.

One of the breakthrough observations was that has come by Sasha Latypova in this report from Trailside news, which is a valid, late breaking science website, actually supported by pharma and a lot of other sponsors, the title of the paper. Hot, lots of COVID 19 vaccines, evidence of different formulations.

And these are statistical analyses of Pfizer Moderna and the J and J compared against the flu vaccine. Now, this is really interesting because when there’s a complication from the flu shot, it’s randomly distributed across all the manufacturing lots, but with COVID 19 vaccines, the complications are restricted to certain lots.

Now recently on Steve Kershaw’s subs stack, Steve has gotten the European medicine agency released from the vaccine manufacturer showing market degradation of messenger RNA in these product. Now I questioned early on when when did we go from having the vaccine storage from subzero temperature to normal refrigeration?

This was never talked about. It was never discussed and all of a sudden it was safe to be distributed to all the pharmacies, but not private clinics. And what about the pharmacists who went to jail for keeping a box out at room temperature in these randomized trials, the vaccine had to stay in negative temperatures and were single use only vials.

Now they have multi-use vials and they no longer need to stay in a special freezer. The majority of people who’ve been given the shot are fine, but the shots have degraded messenger RNA, and they’re actually not getting much of the genetic info in the, if the product was cold and single use. Things would’ve been a lot worse.

Most of us are wondering what is causing the damage in these various lots. And the truth is that you don’t want a fresh shot. Believe it or not. If you actually get the messenger RNA as designed and despite protein production as designed, it can be in many cases lethal. There is sloppy manufacturing and product handling that is saving Americans.

According to Dr. McCullough’s research, our recent Zogby’s survey, which is a very good survey operation in the United States, they surveyed a large number of Americans and two thirds of the people who took the vaccine of interest say. That they’re they’re okay. Right. 85% of them say I took the shot and I’m fine.

Nothing happened. 15% said they got a problem. They got a new disease or medical problem. Many of them are going to the doctor and they fall into cardiovascular, neurological hematological, immunological And now unfortunately cancer. And that’s the current state of affairs for 15% of Americans who have taken these products that are left with medical issues.

Now I know there’s gonna be some people who are gonna say, well, they’re alive and that’s a good thing. Well, I can show you 26% of the population that did not take the shot that are also fine. And many of them have already been sick with the COVID virus and. Haven’t haven’t gotten injured like this I’ve personally talked to a pharmacy tech who showed me a box of vaccine that was left.

Was beyond the expiration date. The date was crossed off with a black Sharpie and the pharmacy was still using that material. As soon as you leave that vile out, it starts to get warmer. And there’s multiple needle pokes that go through the diaphragm of the vile, and then there’s introduction of oxygen and oxidative stress.

All kinds of other things. So if you receive that shot, that was from a busy pharmacy that did sloppy injection protocols. It may explain why there wasn’t any side effects early on. I I’ve told this story before, but my mother-in-law got their shot at a drive-through pharmacy. And she said, it’s so awesome.

They put the bandaid on first and then they gave me the injection and I’m. Looking at her. And I said, mom, are you sure that’s right? Because that doesn’t make any sense. They, they never do that. She said, I wish they did all of them like that because it never hurt. And I’m thinking, well, you pushed that through now.

You pushed material through the skin in the needle. And people are gonna argue and say, well, it’s not that much. It’s not a big deal. We probably intake more than that in our food, which is true, but you’re also pushing it in with an ingredient source of experimental use products. Now, luckily for us, my mother-in-law is fine.

My father-in-law took the shot as well. He had cancer in remission until he got his last boost. And now his cancer is back and they’re having a difficult time getting it under control. So there is definitely some very near and dear things to my heart with this. And. Constantly encouraging them to not take any additional boosters because of the potential risks of what we don’t know.

So what am I seeing with patients who have had the jab? Well, we’re still seeing a lot of micro vessel clotting. We are seeing micro vessel clotting 8, 9, 10, 12 months post shot. People don’t know it. They don’t have a lot of symptoms we’re testing because we know it’s a problem. We’re detecting quite a bit of it.

We’re seeing new rare, autoimmune diseases. We’re seeing reactivation of infections like Lyme disease, Epstein barr, H H V six and shingles. These are just a few of what we’re dealing with right now. And the truth is that this country has had a problem with vaccines for many, many years. This. And people getting it.

You have to realize it is not a vaccine. It’s a drug and it’s in emergency use authorization. And you are the study. Now, if you are actively aware of this and you want to participate, that is one thing. But if you don’t know that you’re participating and something happens to you, that’s a completely different thing.

You have no protection. Of getting any illness that you really don’t want to take the risk of a developing, like you don’t want to take the risk of developing a cardiac problem, like myocarditis or organ failure, neurological or immunological diseases, or even worse. You just, you don’t want that to happen at this point now I’ve heard a lot of people say I’ve done my homework and it’s safe.

Well, I would encourage anyone who thinks that this shot is safe to look at this again with the rising cancer rates, after this shot and occur, reoccurring, rare, aggressive cancers. People need to really think twice about taking something experimental. If you don’t believe. Just look at all the commercials from lawyers, for lawsuits on artificial joints, contaminated water, drugs that have been on the market for many, many years.

Roundup itself has 700 lawsuits pending for cancer. J and J has paid some of the largest settlements for drugs that have caused injury. This is not new. It’s been ongoing for decades. Why do we think this drug is any different? I’m not really sure. I think we’ve propagated people’s fear. We’ve used fear as a way of getting people to do what they want.

There’s a lot of really good books out there showing that this is how Germany. Got people to go along with the Nazis and the Holocaust. And it’s not much different here. It’s just a different name, a different illness, a different scenario. And it’s not very hard to manipulate people when they’re fearful.

And so I really want to encourage people to start looking at things. You have no recourse. If you’ve been injured by this, there is no vaccine court you can go to because this is not a vaccine. There is no one that’s gonna stand behind this. The FDA is gonna push responsibility to Pfizer. Pfizer’s gonna push responsibility to the FDA and the CDC.

Nobody is gonna take responsibility for your injury. So you are going to be left with this potential risk and potential injuries and you’ll be alone and you’ll be hard pressed to even find a healthcare practitioner. That’s going to agree with you that this happened. After the shot and that is the scary part because you will not even be able to find a normal healthcare provider.

That’s gonna stand on your side and fight with you. You’re going to have to go into the alternative integrative space. Find somebody that understands this, find somebody who’s read these papers. Find somebody that has been seeing this and knows how to treat these chronic illnesses. To help you get better and it’s gonna be a fight and it’s gonna be expensive because insurance isn’t gonna stand behind any of this either.

They’re gonna raise their hands and say, wait a minute, we’re not paying this. We were, we were told this was a mandate. We weren’t told that it was gonna cost us $250,000 per person because they have myocarditis. Just look at all of the life insurance policies that are being paid out now to our young people, you know, 35 to 55 years old, we have a 40% increased risk of death.

Amongst those people, either the insurance premiums are gonna have to rise or the insurance companies are gonna start saying. We’re not gonna, we’re not gonna stand behind this. We’re not gonna pay these people out and that is gonna be tragic. And we need to stand together. We need to stand up. We need to fight for health freedom, and we need to fight for making our own decisions in this country about our own healthcare individually.

Have you prepared your pantry for winter? Where do you start preparing natural foods, canning, freezing, dehydrating, freeze drying ect. Dr. Deb shares the top foods in her pantry that she is storing for 25+ years. 

Do not miss these highlights:

07:47 Freeze Dryer and the disadvantages.

10:46 Anything that’s dry, can go inside the Mylar bags and be sealed for many years, and in a moist situation, you really want to can.

12:41 How you want to look at your food storage.

15:49 Why Mylar bags should be put inside of plastic totes.

17:32 Stockpile what it is you need and want – Have enough food sources that are high in vitamin C.

20:34 Your supplements can be frozen. 

28:21 Store Grains – They’re easy to store and they provide a good amount of calories for you and they fill your belly. 

30:34 Store Rice because it’s very high in calories, has lots of vitamins, minerals,  and it’s easy to prepare.

31:23 Store beans and legumes – they’re literally a powerhouse of nutrients.

32:57 Potato flakes are great fast food survival Food. 

34:06 You can have dehydrated, frozen or dried vegetables and spices.

36:00 Store sugar because it’s a good preservative and store honey because of its sweetening properties and medicinal properties.

38:05 Salt is a priority in food storage because it’s something that we cannot produce on our own property. It’s a great item for bartering. It’s critical in food preservation and health.

39:14 Store baking soda for cleaning, personal hygiene and also for medicinal purposes. Also, store Vinegar for food preparation and recipes. 

41:07 Store ascorbic acid powder. It’s essentially vitamin C and is needed for health and life.

Transcript of Episode 185

0:02Welcome to Let’s Talk Wellness Now, I’m your host, Dr. Deb, this is where we talk about everything wellness, and learn to defy aging, and live our lives on our own terms. Welcome back to Let’s Talk wellness. Now, I’m your host, Dr. Deb. And today you see a very different background for me than you’re used to seeing. And that’s because I’m up in northern Wisconsin, enjoying a little r&r time with my husband, we’re on a nice little lake here. And my husband and I are going to do some hiking, and just kind of really enjoy the fall weather. And I wanted to talk today about fall preparation. So we are very close to fall. And when we think of fall, we think of harvesting fall harvest, we’re harvesting apples and peaches and all of the things that we grew during the summer months, and really getting ready for the hearty winter that’s coming. Now whether you live in a really cold state like me, or you live in a warm state either way, winter is kind of that downtime for us that preparation time, that hibernation time. And I think today, more than ever, we need to be thinking about what are we doing to prepare for the winter. Now, you’ve seen and heard me talk on this show before about healthy eating organic food, you know, buying from farmers markets buying from the local farmers, so you know how your food is prepared, how it’s grown, how they treat their animals, all of that kind of thing. But what we’ve never covered is how to store food for the winter. So all of our ancestors have had to do food storage. And you know, when we didn’t have refrigeration, we didn’t have electricity, it wasn’t as easy as walking into the basement or into the garage and throwing something into a chest freezer, or having our refrigerator where we could store food, you know, for at least a week at a time and in our freezer for months or even a year or more. But they had to plan and they had to prepare. And they had to can, that was the only way that we had options for food storage back in the day. And there are still many people today that do canning and do food storage. And if you’re not one of them, I would really encourage you to start looking at the options and the training on canning and freezing fresh food. You know, there’s been a lot of talk about food shortages coming. And a lot of people have said to me, Well, I don’t know what you’re talking about. My grocery store has plenty of food still. And I see videos all over of people who do not have food on their shelf. And a good eye opener for me was Labor Day weekend, we were up visiting some family and the local store there has never been out of food, even in a Labor Day weekend. And this Labor Day, it really wasn’t as busy as it normally is. So I was very surprised when I walked into the grocery store at the end of the weekend. And there was empty shelves not in like where the noodles and the canned items are. But where the fresh food was the food

3:44fruit section and the vegetable sections were completely barren compared to what they are like there was one whole section that didn’t have any watermelon or cantaloupe and strawberries. And granted this is all their cut up product. So it could have been that they didn’t have people to do it. It could be that, you know, they just didn’t have the product itself. But what I found interesting was that section was empty, and the section where the vegetables were was empty. And I’ll actually throw some pictures so you guys can see what I’m talking about in this video as well. But in all the years that I had been going there, and it’s been well over 20 some years, I’ve never seen that before in my life. I’ve never been into the grocery store where aisles are empty. And I’ve been to my local grocery store and the noodle aisle is empty and there’s no peanut butter on the shelves and and I say those things because my husband loves noodles and he loves peanut butter and and I don’t know what he would do without either of those. But I took note to that and other sections of the grocery store are fine, but some are really problematic and So I think it’s important for us to heed the warnings of the people that are out speaking about the food crisis that’s happening. I like to listen to Mike Adams quite a bit. And he is a scientist. He’s also in the food industry, he is buying raw ingredients. And we know how much of a challenge that is. For those of you who know that I used to own GF naturals, and GF naturals was a gluten free flour mix. We had to close that business at the end of last year, because of raw ingredients, we could not purchase enough raw ingredients, we didn’t have the purchasing power to purchase what they required us to do, which was a pallet full, so a pallet full of any grain is about 2500 pounds, they were leaving that purchasing power to all of the big companies. So small companies, some of your favorite boutique e-companies, you may see going out of business, simply because they can’t purchase like they used to. Because if they can’t purchase in this large bulk, they’re not going to be able to afford to purchase the raw ingredients to make their products. So we will see more and more of that. And we will see more of the larger industries being able to maintain, but our smaller businesses are not going to be able to make it if they’re having that same requirement that they required of us. So just some of these little things have made me really start thinking that we need to be preparing, we need to be really buckling down on what we have in store what we have in stock. Now in my case, I have a large family. So I have three children. They’re all married, they all have children’s have a very big family. And I love it. But when when they all come to dinner, I cook for 10 to 15 people at least. And that’s not including my brother in law’s and my sister in law’s that comment as well. So as you’re thinking harvest season, Thanksgiving is coming. How many people are you cooking for? How many people are you preparing for? I think it’s important to start thinking ahead and start planning ahead. In one of our groups that we host at Serenity healthcare center, there was a discussion on food preparation a couple of weeks ago, and one of the gals had shared with us that her kids had been Food Prepping for several years, and they have a food.

7:45It’s about a dehydrator, it’s a freeze dryer, sorry, freeze dryer. So they freeze dry all their food and package them in Mylar bags, and they use these little oxygen packs and put them in the Mylar bags. And the oxygen packs actually suck the air out of the bag. So it keeps the food fresh. And when you do that your food can stay fresh for 10 15 20 years, depending on what food you’re putting in there. And I think that’s an amazing idea. I think it’s an easy way to prep. However, the freeze dryer is expensive. It’s about $3,000. And I thought about this, like maybe this would be a really good thing to have. And I would encourage you, if you’re thinking about doing that, go watch some of the videos of the food that is unpacked from it, because that’s what changed my mind from it. My husband and I were looking at it and you know, they freeze dried meat and they freeze dried literally everything yogurt, ice cream, everything. But when it comes out of the package, it’s hard. And I’m gonna just talking a little hard, it’s hard. And you have to hydrate it. Now some of the commercials for the freeze dryer will show that they just, you know, pour some hot water over it. And it moistens up and it’s beautiful. But if you actually look at some of the videos of people that are doing it, it’s like leather, it’s like jerky. And if you’d like jerky, that’s great. And the one gentleman that we watched, was pouring all these sauce...

Transcription of Episode 184:

0:02Welcome to Let’s Talk Wellness Now I’m your host, Dr. Deb. This is where we talk about everything wellness, and learn to defy aging and live our lives on our own terms. Hi, welcome back to Let’s Talk Wellness Now. I’m your host, Dr. Deb. Today I want to talk to you about vaginal rejuvenation. So many of you have heard my story about my own pelvic floor issues, my own collagen issues. I’ve had pelvic reconstructive surgery, had a uterine prolapse had undergone a hysterectomy. And then a couple of years ago, I underwent pelvic floor reconstruction surgery because I was having some issues after you know, God, almost 20 years, have a hysterectomy and had no problems for a while and then started having some problems with urinary incontinence and pain with intercourse, pelvic floor issues. I’ve had many guests on the show talking about pelvic floor and urinary incontinence and vaginal rejuvenation. And for those of you who’ve been following me a long time, you know my love for hormones, and I think it’s amazing. And I came across a device called the Morpheus V. And it was totally by accident, we had a rep come in and share this technology with us. And I was blown away by the technology. And I have to say a little saddened by the fact that this wasn’t available. Before I underwent my pelvic reconstruction surgery for urinary incontinence Had this been available? I really believe that I would not have had to undergo amajor surgery to fix the issues that I was having from my hysterectomy. This device Morpheus V is so amazing. It is a combination of radiofrequency and micro-needlingmicro-needling now before you get nervous, the micro-needling part is a little scary, yes.

2:17But it’s really not that painful, we can make these procedures very comfortable for people. And for those of you who’ve suffered from urinary incontinence for years, you may have known about the Mona Lisa, cert,ainly we talk a lot about doing Kegel exercises, pelvic floor physical therapy, re connecting that muscle tissue and really being able to have a strong pelvic floor. So why is it important to have a strong pelvic floor? Well, most of us, we think about urinary incontinence and leakage. And that is very true. Without a strong pelvic floor, we are going to suffer from urinary incontinence, maybe fecal incontinence. And then eventually what ends up happening is we start having sexual dysfunction or we shy away from intercourse. Because it may be painful. You may feel like you’re gonna leak, you may feel like you’re gonna pass gas or have a bowel movement during intercourse. All of these things are problems that women suffer in complete silence. And myself my friend Sherrie Palm who runs a pops, which is the pelvic floor organization, that’s a non for profit. She has spent the last 16-plus years educating women on pelvic floor issues and all of the various devices and treatments that are available and really has come to an exciting time for women. Because what once used to just be a surgical option or a pessary or suffer and live with the incontinence and the pelvic floor issues, this arena has significantly changed with the development of some of these devices like Mona Lisa and Morpheus V. We can actually do non invasive treatments for people who do not want or are not candidates to undergo surgical intervention. Or they tried Botox injections into the vaginal tissue. They’ve tried estrogen, they’ve tried testosterone. They’ve tried all of the things that we give women to help with urinary incontinence and pelvic floor. But it’s still not helping. It’s still not enough. And when I came across this device, I was so excited about it. Because I thought finally for once we have a device that can really address the woman’s problem. In a very short period of time. We’re talking literally three treatments and after the first treatment, you’re going to notice a significant difference in incontinence. And I thought we finally have something that women can use that is effective. This treatment helps in 90 to 95% of the cases. Now, if someone has a severe pelvic prolapse, you know, grade three or something more difficult going on, it’s certainly not going to help in those cases. But in those mild to moderate urinary incontinence, urge incontinence pain with intercourse, like in planets, lichen sclerosis cases where there scar tissue and there’s pain, this device can significantly help make your life so much better. And I had to share this on the show today, because I am such an advocate for women’s health, this has been my passion my whole life. And I really feel like as women, there’s not a lot of research that goes into the issues that we deal with. And finally, we have something. So you know, a lot of times when people undergo surgical interventions, or you have birth a child and have had birthing trauma, like a rip or a tear, or they’ve had to do an episiotomy, many women end up with scar tissue in that area, which then leads to nerve damage in that area. And if you’ve got undergone pelvic floor surgery, they’ve cut a lot of the nerves internally, and women will tell you that this type of surgical repair, although it’s been helpful, has also created some other issues. We’ve create issues where intercourse is difficult either because of an over zealous physician that has cut away too much tissue and made the vaginal tissue too tight.

6:50And yes, that is the thing as much as the guys will say, go ahead. It is a problem when they’ve over-rectified the situation to the point where you can barely get one finger in the vagina. That is a problem. Now the wonderful thing about the world of vaginas is bad, they stretch and it can get better. But it does take some time it does take some work, it takes some diligence there. The other thing that happens post surgically is many women no longer feel or have the same sensation that they have prior to surgery. They have much more difficulty reaching orgasm, especially vaginal orgasms, it’s much more difficult to stimulate the g spot. And in part, that’s because all those nerves have been caught. Now there are things that we can do. There’s different medications we can give into vaginally that help rejuvenate that tissue and those nerves, but nerve tissue takes a very long time to rejuvenate. We’re talking about one millimeter a month. So we have 1000s of nerves in the vaginal tissue. And so it takes time to rejuvenate that. But with the Morpheus V, it’s so much different. And it’s so much better because you can start getting that collagen and that elasticity there, you can start getting that nerve connection back again. And so it just has given us such an opportunity to help women in a arena that we don’t talk about. You know, many women do not want to talk about their urinary incontinence, they don’t want to talk about their painful intercourse. They don’t want to talk about not having an orgasm. But it creates a lot of friction and a lot of tension in the relationship because the partner always feels like it’s them, they’re doing something wrong, they’re not pleasing you, you don’t love them anymore. When that couldn’t be further from the truth. For the majority of women, it has nothing to do with that. It simply has to do with the fact that we don’t have the sensation that we had before. And with Former V, V Tone, Morpheus V, all of these things that we can do to help strengthen the pelvic floor to help reproduce new collagen, new cell turnover in the vaginal tissue.

9:04These kinds of things can help so much with your sex life, with your incontinence with how you feel as a woman, the sexuality, the sensuality, of being able to dress nice and not have to worry about leaking on yourself or looking nice. All of these things are so important to us. And let’s face it, the world of aging is spreading. The female populatio...

What is informed consent? What should you be told before a medical procedure? 

Do not miss these highlights:

01:14 Each of us has the right to receive information and ask questions about recommended treatments, so we can make an informed decision. 

03:26 The usual interventions occur in the process of informed consent.

04:56 Healthcare providers are supposed to assess the person’s ability to understand medical information and the implications of treatments. And are supposed to provide any alternatives to the treatment.

08:04 This informed consent hasn’t taken place with the jab that people have been getting.

10:48 Back in 2006, Dr. Deb’s husband broke his back at work and needed to undergo surgery, but unfortunately, the procedure has not been totally nor properly disclosed to her husband.

15:54 Doctors are not perfect. Our healthcare system is more than broken. In healthcare, they think people are stupid that they can’t understand things. 

17:39 If you’re going to undergo a procedure, or a provider recommends that you do something, don’t jump at it at the first chance, do a thorough research.

19:52 If your guts and instincts are not sure about the procedure, listen to that intuition, trust your God-given intuition.

Transcript of Episode 183

0:02Welcome to Let’s Talk Wellness Now, I’m your host, Dr. Deb, this is where we talk about everything wellness and learn to defy aging and live our lives on our own terms. Welcome back to Let’s Talk wellness. Now, I’m your host, Dr. Dub. And today I want to talk about informed consent. You know, there’s a lot of talks these days about informed consent around shots around procedures, and what exactly is it? And why do we need it? Well, informed consent is a big thing within the medical field. Now I have seen it change over the decades that I’ve been in practice. And for those of you who have heard me talk about this before, my husband was a victim of an informed consent issue, back in 2006. And I’ll tell you a little bit more about that in this episode. But first, let’s talk about exactly what is informed consent. Why do we need it? Why is it important? And what do we do about it? Because informed consent is not just about what’s recently going on in the world. Informed consent is about everything that happens within the medical field, and other fields to you know, the legal fields, our food source, all of these kinds of things, we have the right to know, what’s being done to us, why it’s being done, and how it affects us. And ultimately, that’s what informed consent is about. So when we talk about informed consent, from a medical standpoint, we’re talking about both ethics and law. Each person has the right to receive information and ask questions about recommended treatments so that you can make an informed decision. Now, this is supposed to happen between you and your provider. There’s a relationship that occurs when you see someone in the health healthcare field. And that relationship is supposed to foster trust and support with shared decision-making. Now, I’m sure a lot of you that are listening to this are thinking, well, that’s not happening today. And you’re right. It’s not happening today, like it happened, even 10 or 15 years ago.

2:46I’m just gonna say it. It’s more of like a dictatorship out there in the medical world these days, I’m going to tell you what you’re going to do, you’re not going to ask me any questions, I’m not going to tell you the truth about what kind of complications you can have, in part because as a provider, I may not know what they are, because nobody told me and some providers choose not to go out and look for that information themselves. And therefore they can’t tell you anything. So that is probably one of the most frustrating things that I am seeing in medicine today. So the process of informed consent actually occurs when communication between the patient and the provider talks about a procedure, and the patient gets to authorize and or agree to have a specific medical intervention apply to them. Now, that’s where it’s supposed to be. But many of you know just like me, that some people will intervene. Like, if you’re choosing to not have a medical treatment for a family member, especially like a child, they will threaten to call social services on you and take your child away so that they can impose the treatment that they believe is the best interest for your child and your family. Now, do I sound I sound fired up in this and I am because it does? It upsets me that people think that they have a right to impose their beliefs on a particular person and a particular procedure or treatment. And that couldn’t be farther from the truth of what’s supposed to actually happen today.

4:55So as a health care provider, we’re supposed to assess The person’s ability to understand medical information and the implications of treatments. And we are supposed to provide any alternatives to the treatment that we are proposing. So that you can have an independent voluntary decision as to whether or not you want to undergo this particular procedure or treatment. Well, first and foremost, there are very rarely ever alternatives offered. And at least what I believe as alternative and what they believe is alternative are completely different things. But that is a rarity that there are any alternatives offered for you. Also, we’re supposed to present relative information, accurate and sensitive in keeping the patient’s preference for receiving medical information. So, when we provide a diagnosis, we’re supposed to provide the nature and the purpose of the interventions, the risks, the burdens, and the expected benefits of all of the options, including forgoing treatment. Does that happen? Absolutely not, it doesn’t happen anymore. We are also supposed to document that we provided this informed consent in a conversation to the patient or the person who is making the medical decisions for that person. in some form, we’re also supposed to provide specific written consent to you, which almost always happens, but you don’t realize it, we we document that you have had informed consent, you sign a consent form that says you had informed consent, but I’m going to argue that steps one and two rarely happen. rarely happen I’m gonna say.

7:08Now, in an emergency situation, this decision is urgent, like, if I walk in with a heart attack, they’re not going to give me all of this informed consent for 20 minutes and tell me if you you go through this surgery, or don’t go through this surgery, or you do this or don’t do that. No, because their job is to save your life. And unless you have a do not resuscitate, or you have somebody that can advocate for you that says you didn’t want this, they’re going to do it. To me, that’s a completely different situation. If I’m in a car accident, I go in, I’m unconscious, I really want them to save my life for the most part, right? I’m not going to be able to tell them that I don’t want to do something, you know if it’s going to cause nerve damage, or it’s going to cause this or that. But for any other purpose. Informed consent is supposed to take place. Now, has informed consent taken place? With the jab that people have been getting?

8:15Now it hasn’t? Have you been offered an alternative? No, you haven’t? Have you been mandated to take something that is new to the market? Without understanding all of the potential consequences to it? No, you haven’t. You’ve been told there are no consequences. You’ve been told there are no problems. You’ve been told that there are no side effects, which are all lies, I hate to tell you, but they’re all lies. And you can say I’m a conspiracy theorist on this, but I’m not. I can show you the NIH studies that backup what I’m saying that there are cardiovascular problems happening, there are lung problems happening.

9:03There are blood clotting issues happening as a result of this.

9:09You can argue that they didn’t know that because it’s experimental. And I’m gonna push back and argue and say they damn well knew this was happening. It was in their study information they presented to the FDA. They knew this. You weren’t told about it. But you were forced. This doesn’t just happen in this instance of this day and age right now. This has been happening my friends for decades. Go to any provider and ask them for a procedure for something. Do they sit down and have a conversation face to face and say, hey, you know, we’re going to cut you open and when we cut you open, we’re going to remove your appendix and when we remove your appendix, your immune system is going to decline a little bit and you’re going to have a scar. And we could potentially perforate your bowel, and we could potentially cause a hemorrhage for you. And we could potentially cause nerve damage. And, and you may wish that you didn’t have this out. I’m just making up something right here. No, but those things don’t happen. You’re not told those things. You’re told, we’re going to take your appendix out before it bursts and you get a systemic infection. If you’re lucky, you’re told that and you’re gonna have a little scar, you’ll take a couple of days to recover, you’re gonna go home, not a big deal. That’s what you’re told. So back in 2006, my husband broke his back at work. And he was sent home to drive himself with a stick shift, never called, they never called the ambulance. At that time, to their defense, they didn’t know he had broken two verteb...
